Deng master just over forty years old, his son Deng Xiaojiang has twenty-one, tall, is a spirit of handsome boy, in the next door to work in the oil factory. Deng master's family has a tradition of early marriage, so the son is to find a partner time, parents are still very young. Old Deng husband and wife also fancy this beautiful and capable girl as daughter-in-law, they are not like other masters are always in front of the flowers praise their son how good, but every now and then with some dumplings steamed buns vegetable cakes and other food, Deng masters only say is the rice with more than enough to eat, so that the flowers to help solve the problem, Auntie Deng's meals are very well done, which has always been to eat the canteen cauldron of food for the flowers, is considered to improve the life of the time, time and time. Flowers have a sense of dependence on the meals at Master Deng's house, which week did not eat will want to.
Flower craving, go and ask Master Deng: "I'm going to buy a leek, trouble Auntie Deng to cook a vegetable cake ah?"
Master Deng said: "Still need you to buy leeks? The leeks in the small vegetable garden of the family ate, I give your aunt said, branded to send you over!"
Master Deng felt that the time has come, Auntie Deng branded a good vegetable cake, specially let Deng Xiaojiang to run a trip, said Auntie Deng broke her foot, it is not convenient to come over.
Deng Xiaojiang went to the door of the workshop and looked in, a master saw him and greeted him to come in.
"Xiaojiang! To your father to send food? Your father just went out, put it here."
Deng Xiaojiang did not answer, continue to look, saw the white and beautiful flowers, a glimpse of the favorite. Although Deng master at home many times mentioned flowers flowers, but always see is to believe, today saw, indeed very satisfied.
Deng Xiaojiang waved his hand to the flowers, flowers see is a tall and handsome, wearing fashionable young man looking for her, hesitant to come out, asked Xiaojiang: "Are you looking for me?"
Deng Xiaojiang said, "I am Master Deng's son, my mom cooked vegetable pancakes at home, and I can't get out of the house with a broken foot, so I've been asked to bring it to you."
Flower strange embarrassed, busy said: "Too much trouble Auntie Deng, broken foot and still help me cook pancakes, the evening after work, I go to see her!"
In the evening, I brought a bag of fruit to Master Deng's home, Auntie Deng really walks with a limp, and Hua Hua felt very sorry for her heart. The master Deng has prepared, good food and good dishes set a table, so that flowers ate a beautiful meal, and praised Auntie Deng handicraft is good.
After dinner, Hua Hua helped clean up and left. Master Deng asked Deng Xiaojiang to send him, saying that it's dark and it's not safe for the girl to go back to the dormitory by herself.
On the way back to the dormitory, Deng Xiaojiang talked to Hua Hua about movies and music. He said he had a lot of Teresa Teng's tapes, and that if she wanted to listen to them, he could lend her his tape recorder and tapes. Hua Hua listened to Deng Xiaojiang talk, and those ignorant people in the workshop are not the same at all, a face of worship to look at him.
In this way, one after another, flowers and Deng Xiaojiang familiar with, the two young people seem to collide between a little spark. Deng master see in the eyes, happy in the heart, trust the factory labor union Wang sister to the two to set up a bit, the two people will naturally talk about the object, engaged, married.
Deng Xiaojiang is really like the flowers to see, knowledgeable, broad interests, but really live the day to day, flowers to know, Deng Xiaojiang love to play, ignore the family, a lot of friends, often partner to go to the dance halls, only to go home in the middle of the night.
And Deng master and Aunt Deng looking for flowers as daughter-in-law intention is to let her collect Deng Xiaojiang heart, this girl do what what line, surely can also take care of the son's life, so painstakingly do so a bureau. Who expected that the two married soon after the conflict.
Deng Xiaojiang childhood pampered, at home, nothing to do, after the marriage of the oil press factory allocated dormitory, and flowers moved over, separate days. At first he also helped wash dishes, wash their underwear socks, after not two months, the original form, what chores are thrown to the flowers, they just eat and listen to the tape recorder, listen to the tired sleep.
The company's main goal is to provide the best possible service to its customers. He said, "I'm just like this, if you can't stand it, don't do it, if you can't stand it, do it yourself, don't expect me to do it."
Hua also in front of the in-laws with Deng Xiaojiang a few times, the in-laws promised to talk about him, but the words said good, things do not follow.
Deng Xiao-jiang was Deng master of the old couple spoiled like this, this way how can say change on change it?
After two years of living together, the young flower became flower sister.
Flower sister pregnant, in-laws very happy. Auntie Deng from the machinery factory family home, moved into the oil mill dormitory. But the dormitory is only a dozen square meters, against the north wall to put a double bed, the east wall of a writing desk, the west wall of a combination of cabinets, Auntie Deng over can only take a marching bed on the south wall. Three people living in a dozen square meters, crowded.
Auntie Deng nominally came to take care of the flower sister, but moved over a few days, the flower sister can see, which is to take care of their own to come, is afraid of their own pregnancy inconvenience, support Deng Xiaojiang work.
Because of the early pregnancy reaction is very strong, the flower sister can not eat, quickly fade down, at least one day in the middle of the night suddenly want to eat a small onion dip sauce, called Deng Xiao-Jiang to go to the old Deng's garden to pull out a few onions, said several times Deng Xiao-Jiang just do not want to go, the flower sister was anxious to ride on a bicycle in the dark to the in-laws, pulled out of the onion, dipped in the sauce, eat while crying, while the accusation.
The old Deng couple look at this situation, discussed, know that we can not count on Deng Xiaojiang, but also afraid of flower pregnancy mood swings, not moving to fight with Deng Xiaojiang, the old couple is also heartbroken son, simply Auntie Deng to go over to help it.
As soon as the flower sister has something to call Deng Xiaojiang, Auntie Deng said: "You don't call him, I'll go."
The first time I saw this, I was so happy to see my mother-in-law, so I had to do it myself.
Auntie Deng is also only in her forties, young and strong, and does a good job of housework and bringing up the baby. With Auntie Deng's help, Flora's pregnancy went smoothly and her daughter was born.
Even as a father, Deng Xiaojiang is still playful and has never set his mind right.
Hua has been dead on the matter of changing Deng Xiaojiang, married for several years, can be changed early changed, can not be changed will never be changed.
In the face of her daughter, Sister Hua thought, "That's it, I'm afraid I can't find a husband who knows what's going on in my life.
Because of the in-laws' treatment of Deng Xiao-jiang's attitude, Sister Hua is also very disappointed in the two of them, and over time, the relationship is not as good as it used to be. Because she still needs Auntie Deng to help transport her children to and from school, she tolerates it as long as she can.
In the mid-90s, the oil refineries were able to finance the construction of a family building, which was 60 square meters, two rooms and one hall, and required 20,000 yuan. Flower sister can not get so much money, put together to get more than 10,000 points, let Deng Xiaojiang to find parents to help get some money. But Deng Xiaojiang on the purchase of housing is not at all interested in, think living in a small cottage dormitory what is not good, there is no pressure. The flower sister urged a few times, see Deng Xiaojiang no movement, so he went to talk to his in-laws.
The old Deng's opinion is: "You only have a daughter, the daughter will have to marry, and then buy a house for what? We can't afford to live in your house, take out all your savings, what to do in the rest of your life?"
The flower sister talked and talked and didn't get through, and in a fit of rage, she argued with her in-laws. The final result is that the old Deng only took out two thousand dollars, flower sister from their own family friends and relatives borrowed all over the place, finally enough to get together the collection of money. Because the house is Deng Xiaojiang unit, so must fall in the name of Deng Xiaojiang, flower sister did not raise objections. Although Deng Xiaojiang is not dry, work is not active, life is not on the heart, but since the marriage, flower sister never thought of divorce.
After the incident of buying a house, the relationship between Hua and her in-laws faded. The first time I saw this, I realized that I was a good girl, married to his family, just a tool to give birth to a child and take care of Deng Xiao-jiang.
Because of borrowing a lot of money, the family's financial pressure is very great. Sister Hua then said Deng Xiaojiang: "You quit smoking and drinking, can save a penny is a penny."
Deng Xiao-jiang with the flower sister glared: "I'm more than ten years of habit, you say change on change?" Not only did he not quit smoking and drinking, but he also added the problem of playing cards and money. Although not play big, only play a hair two hairs of the card game, but Deng Xiao-jiang monthly wages are not left.
The woman had no choice but to work as a seamstress in the factory after work. The woman's mother's family is open tailor store, the two sisters will also do clothes, only their own early into the factory, did not learn much. In order to pay back the money as soon as possible, Sister Hua spent a few months with her mother's father to learn the skills, every night to do side work. Especially before the New Year, families are doing new clothes, flower sister is very busy, often children in the desk lamp under the homework, flower sister's sewing machine on the side of the click click click click.
In the "clack-clack" of the sewing machine, Ms. Hua changed from a young woman in her twenties to a middle-aged woman in her thirties, moved into a capitalized house, and raised her daughter to be a very good girl, with good studies and talent.
Gradually, Ms. Hua no longer cares about what Deng Xiaojiang does. She felt that Deng Xiaojiang, in addition to playfulness, disregard for the family, and did not have cheating, keep a woman such a thing, in the cognition of Sister Hua, as long as you do not make a mistake of principle, the other can not care about.
Sister Hua and Deng Xiaojiang's initial, surely there is love, but love in the marriage in the wear and tear, there is very little left, the rest, only because of the child's involvement, and have to be together helpless.
She had also thought that Deng Xiaojiang older, perhaps will be collected home. But the reality gave her a blow again.
The debtors came to the door one after another. It turns out that Deng Xiaojiang at first playing cards is a penny or two of the card game, playing the card game on the big, unknowingly owed a not too small gambling debt, so that the flower sister two years of the side business in vain.
Hua is very sad. Deng Xiao-jiang people have seen, said flower sister found a "good" object, this "good" is good looks, but Deng Xiao-jiang bring flower sister is good or bad, only flower sister only know. After the marriage, Deng Xiaojiang major mistakes do not commit, small mistakes constantly, do not respect the flower sister, do not love the children, not responsible for the family. The in-laws and everything is to defend Deng Xiaojiang, never for the flower sister to say a fair word, her heart was broken through.
Hua repeatedly persuade Deng Xiaojiang, quit smoking, quit drinking and quit gambling, but wear out the skin of the mouth is not a little effect. The only thing that can be done is to let him go.
After 2000, the oil factory closed down, Deng Xiaojiang buy out of the age of layoff.
The flower sister wanted him to take the severance pay to do a small business, start from scratch, but he was too ashamed to think that he was at least a state-owned enterprise workers, how to go to the stall?
Relying on Hua's hard-earned money can not support him to eat, drink and gamble, Deng Xiao-jiang and reached out to his parents. Don't look at the old Deng husband and wife on the flower sister to buy a house that year does not support, on the son to reach out for money but rarely refused. Give money will also say he: "You are also almost forty people, at least find a job to do it, can not fool around." But it's no use saying that, Deng Xiaojiang is still doing what he wants to do.
The third year of the layoff, a night in the late fall, Deng Xiaojiang played cards to half the night, lost all, riding on a broken motorcycle home, because before playing cards have been drinking a lot of wine, the motorcycle was he rode a wobbly, but not slowed down at all. A stone on the road choked the motorcycle wheels, he could not control, even with a car into the Ring Road River, the water has been very shallow, only up to the calf, but he was drunk and weak, coupled with the impact of injury, simply can not climb up. Wait until the early morning exercise passers-by found him, people have been stiff.
When Sister Hua received the report phone call from Deng Xiaojiang's cousin, her heart has long had a judgment. From twelve o'clock the first night, flower sister feel distracted, to Deng Xiaojiang constantly call, at first he was impatient to pick up and hang up, and then simply can not be reached. At one or two o'clock in the morning, the flower sister called the old Deng, want him to find Deng Xiaojiang, but the old Deng said: "He is not the first day of this, looking for what to look for, play enough to come back naturally!"
Deng Xiaojiang's funeral, the old Deng couple cried paralyzed on the ground, but only a few drops of tears, Deng's family said that the flower sister is too hard-hearted, their own men are gone, not even a look, surely can not stay a few years on the remarriage.
In a few days, Deng's family encouraged the old Deng couple to go to court to sue the oil mill house to come over, said Hua sister to remarry, the house will become someone else's.
This is the first time I've ever seen a woman in the world who has been in the same situation as me. The flower sister guarded against this hand, the year they borrowed receipts and repayment vouchers have left a copy of the final house awarded to the flower sister, only need to take from the old Deng here 2,000 yuan of the purchase price return.
Because of the pain of losing a son, the old Deng couple died in a few years. Although because of the attitude of the two of them, Sister Hua had a long time to live a bad life, but the old couple died before the time, but still rely on Sister Hua's care.
The involvement with the Deng family finally came to an end.
Many people thought that when Deng Xiaojiang died, Sister Hua was just forty years old and would surely remarry. But she didn't. For so many years, the burden from the family and marriage exhausted her, very much enjoy the current single state, she did not even think of looking for another man.
Her daughter is getting bigger and bigger every day, and she has become Auntie Hua, who is such a strong mother that she has no problem at all in supporting her children by herself, because there is no more drag from Deng Xiaojiang, but instead, she is getting more and more relaxed economically. Auntie Hua's daughter graduated from university and stayed in the field to work, and when her career and family stabilized, she decided to bring her mother, who had already retired, to her side.
Aunt Flora agreed to her daughter's request, sold the oil mill house, added some money in the daughter's city to buy a set of forty square meters of small house, a room, a kitchen, a bathroom, usually live alone, daughter and son-in-law over three days for dinner, on weekends or holidays, granddaughter over to accompany Aunt Flora.
Auntie Hua has met a lot of new friends of the same age, read the newspaper in the senior activity center, learn to draw Chinese painting, free time to stroll around the food market, square dance. When her daughter is busy, Auntie Hua helps to take care of the children, so that her daughter can devote herself to her work, and her career is getting better and better.
The daughter expressed her hope that Auntie Flora would find another partner, but Auntie Flora refused. There are all kinds of forms of happiness, and everyone has their own perception of happiness. Although she doesn't have a partner, she lives a very fulfilling and satisfying life.
Even though fate is twisting and turning, the strong Auntie Flora has met her own happiness at the turn of the road.
