Bringing Good Luck to your Husband in the ’70s

Mrs. Han laughed angrily and said: “Since you ask me why your eldest brother got a bicycle when he got married and you didn’t, then I will give you a good answer.”

　　” Your eldest brother asked someone to find this bicycle ticket, and the money was also paid by your eldest brother. Your eldest brother used his own ticket to pay for it. Then why can’t he buy a bicycle? Besides, why don’t you? Because when you got married, the third child didn’t have a penny in his hand. How could he buy you a bicycle? Not only did he have no money to buy a bicycle, but even the fifty yuan your mother’s family asked for the wedding gift were all paid with the money your eldest brother earned. Everything you bought for your wedding, including the money for the banquet, was all earned by your eldest brother! You still have the nerve to talk about buying a bicycle?”

　　Han Laosan was already full of embarrassment from the old lady. He wish he could crawl into a hole in the ground.

　　Han Lao Er was also very uncomfortable. He glared at his wife fiercely and warned her not to make trouble. Han Lao Er’s daughter-in-law did not dare to say anything after being stared at by him.

　　Old Mrs. Han continued: “Which of you brothers has the ability to buy anything for your wife, I, as a mother, have no objection. As long as you can make money, I will support even buying a bicycle for your wife. The key is that you have to have the ability.”

  ” Third daughter-in-law, if you want a bicycle, okay, let your man buy it for you. Don’t you have a few hundred dollars in your hands now? Just use it to buy one.”

　　”How can that be done!” Of course Han Lao’s third daughter-in-law couldn’t use the money from the family division to buy a bicycle. She said unconvinced: “My eldest brother hasn’t been in the army for so long, and he still wastes so much money on treating his legs. Where did he get the money? Mom, please stop lying to us. The money you spent to buy the car was clearly the money you earned from making pastries. You used it for brother to marry his wife. We also married. Why didn’t you buy a bicycle before we got married? ? Mom, you are obviously partial!”

　　”Okay, okay! You insist on messing with me, right? Today I will tell you everything!” Old Mrs. Han was so angry that her hands were shaking, and she pointed at her and said word by word: ” If you don’t believe that the money belongs to your eldest brother, then forget it, believe it or not. But if you say that I am partial, then I will admit it today. I am partial, and I like the wife of your eldest brother. You don’t accept it? Su Yue is a hundred times better than you in terms of knowledge, looks, and character? Besides, her ability doesn’t matter how much money she makes. Our family also earns money with her. What about you? Can you make money? Why are you comparing yourself to others? Huh?!”

       She didn’t expect that the old lady would admit her preference in public, and compare herself with Su Yue, directly comparing herself to someone else’s hair. This made Han’s third daughter-in-law so ashamed and angry that she wanted to refute, but she couldn’t refute a word, because she knew that she really couldn’t compare with Su Yue, and she couldn’t compare with Su Yue in any aspect.

　　Old Mrs. Han turned to look at Han’s second daughter-in-law again, “Second daughter-in-law, I can see it too, are you not convinced?”

　　Han’s second daughter-in-law hurriedly said calmly: “Mother, I… I don’t.”

　　”You know it yourself.” Old Mrs. Han waved her hand, “I’ll make it clear today, The family has been separated, and I have already given you all the things that should be given to you. What I have in my hands now, including what I will hold in the future, as well as the money earned by your eldest brother and fourth brother, none of it has anything to do with you , we can spend whatever we want, buy whatever we want, it’s not your turn to make irresponsible remarks! If you have any objections, just get out and build your own house.

　　Seeing that mother was so angry, Han Laosan blushed and said to Mrs. Han: “Mom, don’t be angry. Fangzi is confused. Just think of what she said as farts. Don’t argue with her. I’ll take care of her later. “

　　After that, Han Laosan used his strength and forcefully pulled her back to the room, slammed the door, and threw her on the bed.

　　”What do you want to do, Han Aidang!” The third daughter-in-law of Han was so angry that she had stars in her eyes.

　　”What do I want to do? I also want to ask what you want to do. “Han Laosan’s chest heaved violently, “We are all separated. What does it have to do with eldest brother’s wife? You are still jealous. What right do you have to be jealous? “

　　Han Laosan’s wife got up from the bed, rushed to Han Laosan and beat him, shouting at the same time: “Why am I not qualified? Your mother is so biased. She only thinks of your elder brother for everything, and you have nothing. She gets a bicycle, but when I get married, I only have two clothes. Am I so worthless? “

　　Han Laosan grabbed her arm and threw it hard, extremely angry, “My eldest brother earned that money. He is free to buy whatever he wants. I have no ability or money to buy you a bicycle. Since you dislike it, Then let’s get divorced and find someone who has the money to buy you a bicycle! “

　　”you! “Han’s third daughter-in-law covered her face and started to cry, “You, the old Han family, look down on me, so you all bully me, and you all take me for granted! “

　　Han Laosan snorted, “What’s so impressive about someone like you? You have no ability to compete with others, so you should not be embarrassed! “

　　Han’s third daughter-in-law was furious, “Han Adiang!” You bastard! “

　　Han Laosan ignored her, turned around and lay down on the bed, letting her cry.

　　Listening to the movements in the couple’s room, Han Laoer was still frightened and hurriedly took his wife back to the room to talk. He must educate her. Now, we can’t let her make the same noise as her third sister-in-law.

　　Apart from the children, the only people left in the yard are Mrs. Han and Han Aiguo and Han Aimin. Han Aimin sighed depressedly, wondering why these two sisters-in-law were acting like this day by day. With so many things going on, what does it have to do with them if the eldest brother buys a bicycle for his future wife?

When looking for a wife in the future, he must not look for someone like  second sister-in-law or third sister-in-law, otherwise he will have a headache. It is better to find someone who is the same as his eldest sister-in-law, capable of doing things but not doing much.

　　Han Aiguo walked to Old Mrs. Han, rubbed the old lady’s shoulders, and said in a deep voice, “Mom, thank you for your hard work. ” He hasn’t been at home for so many years, and he didn’t know that his mother had to deal with so many things every day.

　　”Why is it so hard? Mrs. Han shook her head, “I just hope that you will settle down as soon as possible so that I can rest assured.” “

　　Han Aiguo patted the old lady on the shoulder again, “Mom, I will go find the party secretary later and ask him to give the second and third sons a batch of homesteads as soon as possible, so that they can go out and build a house as soon as possible. From now on, you can live your own life in peace.

　　Mrs. Han didn’t want to continue to squeeze together with her son and daughter-in-law who had separated. There were too many disputes, which gave her a headache, so she said: “Go ahead, tell the party secretary so that he will approve it faster.”

“The branch secretary is very proud of patriotism.”

　　Han Aiguo went to find the branch secretary in the afternoon. Sure enough, as soon as Han Aiguo mentioned it, the branch secretary agreed, and within two days, the vacant land near Han’s house was granted to Han Lao Er and Han Lao san to built a house.

　　Han Lao Er and Han Lao San originally thought it would take a long time to get a homestead, but they didn’t expect it to be approved so quickly. They immediately prepared to build a house. In fact, the money in their hands was not enough to build a house like the one they live in now. They had a house like this, but they were afraid that if they didn’t go out to live alone, their wives would have conflicts with their mother all day long and the family would be uneasy, so it was better to listen to their elder brother and live separately.

　　It happened to be that the weather had started to get cold, and the farm break was about to begin. During the period, they just had time to build a house.

　　Although they didn’t have much money, they could build a smaller yard first, and then build it later when they had more money.

　　Han Lao’s second daughter-in-law and Han Lao’s third daughter-in-law were not willing to take the initiative. All the money in the house was spent on building a house. Anyway, we can live here in the old house. There is no need to go out to live now. But this time, the second brother and the third brother were determined, and they had no choice but to join in building a house.

　　Han Aiguo helped Han Lao Er and Han Lao San level the homestead first, and then Han Lao Er went to find the skilled masons, carpenters and other helpers in the village and called them in advance. He asked them to come over and help, while Han Laosan went to contact someone to buy bricks and wood for building a house.

　　The news that the two Han brothers were going to build a house soon spread in the village, and the villagers were now talking about it. It’s all about the Han family, and there is a lot of envy in their tone. There are very few families who can afford to build a house these days. Many families have a large family crowded together. Even if the families are separated, they still live together, it isn’t because they don’t want to separate, but because they don’t have money to build a house.

　　Now that the two Han brothers want to build a house together, how can this not cause a sensation?

　　Several women discussed while working: “The Han family is really rich. If the family is divided, the son can build a new house, which shows that a lot of money can be divided among the families. “

　　” Mrs. Han has a lot of money. Before, their eldest was in the army. They heard that he could get several tens of dollars in salary a month. There were also allowances and subsidies. All of them were sent back to Mrs. Han. After so many years, she must have saved a lot of money. “

　　” the best food in our village is probably the Han family. I often smell the fragrance at the door of their house. You can tell by looking at how well their children look.”

　　” The eldest son of their family is really ambitious. Having a son like this is a blessing, and the whole family can live a good life following him.” Let me tell you, whoever marries the eldest of the Han family will be blessed in the future. The daughter of the Wang family had to break off her engagement, and now her reputation is probably ruined. “

　　When it comes to Han Aiguo, a woman immediately looked at Su Yue who was working not far away and said teasingly, “Why are you mentioning the daughter of the Wang family? Now the eldest of the Han family has found a new partner. “

　　The others immediately cheered up when they heard this, “I’ve heard it too, it’s said that the eldest of the Han family and Su Yue are getting along. Is it true? “

　　Qian Guihua immediately interjected: “Of course it’s true. I saw it with my own eyes. The two came back from the town together. They were talking and laughing. They were very close. They even bought a bicycle together and came back. Look . She’s probably going to get married like that! “

　　” Really?” When did these two people fall in love?”

　　”Oh my God, Su Yue is so beautiful, so she is willing to marry someone from our village? ” Don’t they say that the educated youth look down on our rural areas the most?

　　”What’s wrong with the people in the village? Han Aiguo is not bad looking, and he is also an officer. How many girls want to marry him, so it is not surprising that Su Yue has taken a liking to Han Aiguo. “

　　Several women were talking about it, getting more and more excited as they talked, and couldn’t stop talking.

　　Han Qingsong’s face was livid, and the veins on the hand holding the shovel were obvious. He scolded the women who were gossiping: “keep quiet. As for workers, this is not a place where you, have the upper hand and the west has the shortcomings. If you talk nonsense here again, I will deduct your work points! “

　　When they heard that their work points had been deducted, several women were so frightened that they shut up, wondering why they were allowed to say it normally but not today.

　　Han Qingsong turned to look at Su Yue, pursed his lips, and finally couldn’t hold it back. He walked to Su Yue, cleared his throat, and said: “Su Yue, come with me, I want to tell you something.”

Seeing his serious face, Su Yue thought it was something important, so she followed him to a deserted ditch slope, “Captain, what do you want to say ?”

　　Han Qingsong stared at her pretty face greedily, his throat was tight, and he tried to speak in a normal tone: “There are rumors in the village… that you and Han Aiguo are in a relationship, is that true? If others make nonsense about you and damage your reputation, I will make the decision for you. You cannot let them make up nonsense like this. “

　　Su Yue was stunned. She didn’t expect him to say this. She knew that everyone was talking about her and Han Aiguo recently, but she didn’t take it seriously. Anyway, she was indeed having an affair with Comrade Han Aiguo.

　　Su Yue smiled, deliberately a little shy, “Captain, actually they didn’t make it up, I am indeed in a relationship with Comrade Han Aiguo, and I plan to get married soon”

　　Han Qingsong stood frozen on the spot, looking at Su Yue blankly.

　　Su Yue sighed in her heart. She knew what Han Qingsong was thinking, but she couldn’t force things to happen, so she could only tell him in her heart. I’m sorry.

　　”You…Su Yue, are you going to marry Han Aiguo?you like him? ”
Han Qingsong’s throat seemed to be choked by something, and his voice was very dull.

　　Su Yue nodded and said bluntly: “Of course I like him, why would I marry him if I didn’t like him. “

　　Han Qingsong felt as if his heart was being pinched, stuffy and painful. Suddenly, he felt a strong sense of regret. He regretted that he had not seized the opportunity, that he had not expressed his feelings to her when he first fell in love with her, and that he had given her to someone in vain. If he had spoken out earlier and pursued her earlier, would he be the one she wanted to marry now?

　　Han Qingsong was very unwilling, and his unwillingness drove him to express his feelings to her. “Su Yue, I want to tell you, actually I—”

　　“Su Yue ” Han Qingsong’s words were interrupted by a sudden shout. He turned around to look and saw Han Aiguo is standing not far away.

　　Su Yue breathed a sigh of relief, “Captain, if there’s nothing, I’ll leave first.”

　　After saying that, without waiting for him to speak, she turned around and ran towards Han Aiguo, “Why are you here?”

　　Han Aiguo looke at Qingsong and nodded and took Su Yue back. After walking a long distance, he asked her in a low voice: “What did he want to ask you for?”

　　Su Yue chuckled, “Just ask us about our relationship.”

“Then What did you say?”

“Then what do you think I said?”

　　Han Aiguo frowned and his voice deepened, “Don’t have any contact with him in the future. His motives are not pure.”

　　His motives are not pure? He actually knew? Su Yue sweated in her heart and looked at him inquiringly, “What, you know?”

　　Han Aiguo said nothing and silently picked up Su Yue’s shovel.

　　Su Yue still didn’t understand what she saw, and she didn’t know when this man knew that Han Qingsong was interested in her, but none of that mattered now. She had better deal with this man’s jealousy quickly.

　　”Okay, okay, don’t be jealous. I just told people that I like Comrade Han Aiguo. I will marry Comrade Han Aiguo in this life, and no other man can do it.”

　　After speaking, Han Aiguo After a pause, the corners of his mouth raised slightly, and his brows suddenly relaxed.

　　Su Yue snickered in her heart and poked his lower back secretly, “What are you doing here? What are you doing with my shovel?”

　　Han Aiguo waved the shovel and started to do Su Yue’s previous work, “Came to help you work, you go back and rest.”

　　”I will do it myself, your legs are not healed yet.” Su Yue looked around and found that many people were looking at them, feeling embarrassed.

　　Han Aiguo pointed to the field ridge not far away, “If you don’t want to go back, just go and sit there for a while. You can’t do this job.”

　　” Who said I–” Well, she really couldn’t do it.

　　Winter is coming soon, and there is not much farm work to do in the fields, but the team members have to improve the soil and help the land accumulate fertilizer. They need to dig river mud and carry manure to use as fertilizer. This work is dirty, smelly, and requires a lot of physical strength. The delicate little body of Su Yue is really not suitable for this job. Even if she is given a relatively easy job, she still works hard every day, and the palms of her hands are full of blisters from the shovel.

　　The people next to her all laughed when they saw this, and they all teased Su Yue: “Su Yue, your partner is really helping you when he comes to work for you. Just go and have a rest. Let your partner do it and give him a chance to show off.”

　　”Hahaha, that’s right, you have to let your partner do this.”

　　”It’s hard to find such a good partner, Su Yue, just have fun secretly.”

　　Everyone’s heckles made Su Yue’s face look a little bit hot, but she was quite thick-skinned. In the end, she did not refuse and sat down not far from Han Aiguo, resting and watching him work.

　　Han Aiguo is tall and has long legs, and his tendons are fully exposed when working. He has a sense of strength in every move. When digging river mud, Su Yue can only dig a little at a time, but he can dig a shovel full, and the speed was very fast, the basket was filled with mud within a few seconds without leaving any mud outside the frame. The people carrying the mud could not keep up with his speed.

　　Compared with other big men around him, he does his job very well.

　　Su Yue looked at it with admiration in her eyes.

　　Not far away from Su Yue were female educated youths who were working together. Zhao Fang looked at Su Yue’s leisurely and lazy look and was extremely jealous. Why were they all female educated youths who went to the countryside? Su Yue had someone to help her with the work. And she has to work hard from dawn to dusk to do these smelly and tiring jobs?

　　Why! Is it because she doesn’t have body who can seduce men?

　　”Some people are really shameless. If they don’t do the work themselves, they like to let men do it for them. Tsk tsk. It is said that women can hold up half the sky and are no worse than men. But some people just like to rely on men, which is a bit new-age. There is no feminine style.”
