In this life, happiness and pain, hope and despair, brightness and darkness, noise and silence, laughter and tears are always entangled and intertwined, just like Wei Xi in "The Children of the Qiao Family" What the author said:
When reading the novel "Sister" by Zhang Ping, I always thought about one thing: has our so-called success been simplified by modern people? I think that fame, wealth and status are success, but are these successes really the success that everyone wants? Probably not, success should be diverse.
It is said that people must have two kinds of wisdom in life, one is to know, and the other is to be content.
Just like a "sister", when everyone in her family felt that she was suffering, she knew that no one could change history, so she chose her current life contentedly and happily, without complaining about God or others. , her confidence in living is far more precious than anything else, more important than status and money.
In "my" memory, my sister has a smart figure, a round face, a pair of bright eyes, a very fair complexion, and two long braids. She is charming and beautiful.
Everyone knows that she is the daughter of a university professor, a well-known lady, who can sing and dance. During holidays, the school organizes performances, and her sister is always the one who stands out the most.
Not only that, she is also very smart. She can memorize a hundred Tang poems at the age of eight, and can understand "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" and "Journey to the West" at the age of eleven or twelve. She is good at studying and is a backbone of entertainment. , is the darling at school, and is regarded as the apple of his eye at home.
But fate is so fair but unfair at the same time. People who are too perfect will never let you live a good life. Due to the changes in the background of the times, she suddenly fell from a high place and followed her parents to the countryside.
Just like that, she fell from the clouds and was looked down upon and ridiculed by others. Ten years of rural life, due to her family background, both tempered her and destroyed her spiritual support.
What was supposed to be a bright future has since become a dream, so at the age of twenty-seven, my sister chose to give up and marry a short, sickly mountain village farmer.
When you are on the cliff, you have no choice and no ability to compete. You can only close your eyes and accept the gift from God.
?It was also because my sister silently agreed, which became the saddest scar for the whole family. Because everyone acquiesces to this extremely unmatched marriage, because they know that even if someone says to forget it, my sister will not step into the endless suffering.
On the day of my sister’s wedding, everyone burst into tears, except my sister who didn’t cry. There was no expression on her numb face. There was no drumming, no firecrackers, and my sister followed silently in a new dress that was not bright.
A thirty-four-year-old brother-in-law with six younger brothers. Because of poverty, my brother-in-law's parents looked forward to having a daughter-in-law like a daughter, so when my sister entered her brother-in-law's house, she was treated like a god.
My brother-in-law has a good temper and is very obedient to his sister. One glance from my sister will make her brother-in-law restless. Because in a house full of bachelors, marrying a wife means marrying the courage and confidence to survive.
My sister’s silence and look of despair made my brother-in-law’s family feel panic and uneasy. They tried every means to guess and comfort their sister. One month after my sister got married, it was the Spring Festival. On the morning of the first day of the new year, my brother-in-law’s six brothers, led by their second brother, came to pay their New Year greetings to my sister. Before my sister could react, all six brothers knelt down and kowtowed. head.
It was in such a family that my sister received the treatment that a "person" should have. It was also what she longed for most in her heart, which was the dignity of a human being.
In the following years, my brother-in-law's parents passed away one after another. Before their death, they handed over a house of bachelors and several adobe houses to my sister.
It was also because of this will that he once again won the heart of this daughter-in-law. That commission was tragic for them, but for the sister, it was the strength and courage to live.
My sister has not separated the family, and everyone in the family must listen to the "sister-in-law". She is aboveboard, impartial and selfless, and has very deep feelings for that family.
It is a salvation for my brother-in-law’s family, and it is also a salvation for my sister. Each of them found a shelter, one was the confidence in life, and the other was the power to grow upward.
Just like that, under the prestige and momentum of my sister, I married all the bachelors in the house before dividing the family. Not only was it fair and equitable, but all the brothers had planned their future lives. It was also because of the separation that the brothers became closer and more enthusiastic.
Xu Xiao said:
I think in that era, no one knew what would happen tomorrow. Suffering was like an invisible road, and my sister chose to be brave.
She supported the big family that everyone hid from. When her father returned to the city and became the dean, he wanted to transfer his daughter back to the city. Her sister refused. Regarding the past, she said she had no I am angry with anyone, but my daughter today is no longer the daughter she was before. People must live with conscience and feelings.
My sister’s hair grew gray day by day in that family, and wrinkles appeared on her cheeks, but she was happy.
She found the confidence to live, which had nothing to do with material things, and even gave up the material things and status she should have had. Because she understands that if a person's soul has no belonging, no matter how much money or status he has, it will be empty.
I always like to read some suffering literature, they always give me a kind of strength. It turns out that human flexibility can be so strong, so strong that I can find flowers blooming in any kind of abyss. lifestyle.
I heard that the total amount of luck and unluckiness in life remains unchanged. If the present is full of unfortunate encounters, it means that there will only be lucky things in the future. I hope everyone is a lucky person, but misfortunes are also Please don't give up hope in life.
