Seventy-year-old plum blossom, still light and agile. On this year's "Women's Day", the city organized middle-aged and elderly women to carry out the "Goddess in My Heart" selection activity, and Meihua won the championship again.
Those who are familiar with plum blossoms know that she was a big beauty when she was young. At that time, plum blossoms were walking on the road, with natural yellowish hair flowing in the wind, fair skin, willow eyebrows, big eyes, and pale pink eyes, which were very eye-catching. In public, no matter when and where, her return rate is almost 100%.
When she was young, she was very envious of her beauty, and they all thought that she had beauty secrets. One day, they asked the plum blossoms, "How can I be as beautiful as you?" ”
Meihua smiled slightly and said, "Yellow hair depends on starvation, appearance depends on proper clothing, body depends on housework, and skin depends on sweat." ”
After hearing this, the beautiful sisters were very dissatisfied, and they all said that the plum blossoms were fooling them.
Plum Blossom said, "Do you want to listen to the truth or to listen to the lies?" ”
The pretty sisters said in unison: "Of course, you have to listen to the truth." ”
Plum Blossom said, "Okay, then I'll tell you, after listening to it, don't laugh at me." ”
The pretty sisters couldn't wait to say: "Don't joke, say it quickly." ”
Meihua said: "The yellowing of the hair is caused by malnutrition, and during the three years of natural disasters, there was no food, and I was hungry. White skin is tired of doing housework, often tired and sweaty, sweating. The big watery, pink and red eyes have been crying since childhood, and crying has broken the eyes. ”
After listening to the beautiful sisters and beautiful sisters, they all shook their heads like a rattle, didn't believe it, said that the plum blossom was still teasing them, and forced the plum blossom to tell the truth quickly. Plum blossoms had no choice but to sigh deeply and tell them their story.
Meihua said, I have felt that my mother and father are very busy since I can remember, and it is often rare to see them for many days, and the family is all in charge of the nanny. When he was eleven years old, after the start of WG, a catastrophe befell his family. My father was an old Red Army soldier, and he had been in an important leadership position since the founding of the People's Republic of China, but he was imprisoned in the "cowshed" by the rebels as a "cow ghost and snake god", my mother was seriously ill and admitted to the hospital, and the nanny was "invited" home by the rebels, and all the housework at home fell on me. I buy groceries in the morning, attend classes at school in the morning and afternoon, do laundry and cook for my two little brothers at noon, and accompany my mother to the hospital in the evening.
Soon after, my mother died. My mother's family background was not good, she broke through many obstacles and threw herself into the revolution, and became a member of the Communist Party at a young age. She made a lot of contributions in the War of Liberation and the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea, won many awards, and worked hard during the "Great Leap Forward" to exhaust her body. In the end, my mother did not die on the battlefield, but died in a medical accident.
Dad finally came back from the "cowshed", and brought me a stepmother. Since then, the chickens and ducks at home have been fighting, making big noises, and small quarrels every day. Later, my father left all the four children brought by my stepmother in the city and arranged jobs one after another, but my eldest brother and I cut the queue and settled down and went to the countryside one after another. There, I was so tired from doing farm work during the day, and I thought about my mother to death in the dead of night.
My mother seems to have a prophetic vision, as soon as I was born, I said that my life is bitter, and the milk name I gave was "bitter melon", and the tuba was called "plum blossom", which means "plum blossom fragrance comes from the bitter cold", and I hope that I will get out of the bitter sea as soon as possible, and I will meet good luck as soon as possible. However, as soon as my mother died, I became a grass, and I have not encountered good luck so far. In those days, I was sad every day, crying at least five times a day, and my eyes were broken, but you said that my eyes were beautiful; I did a lot of housework, I didn't get tired of my body, I fell down with flexible hands and feet, and my body was curvaceous; I am so tired that I often sweat and sweat my back, and I seem to be taking a bath with sweat every day, sweating a lot, my metabolism is good, and my skin is of course good.
The pretty sisters listened very attentively, and the tears fell straight in the autumn waves for a while, and they nodded and shook their heads for a while. Since then, for a long time, as soon as the husbands of their respective families saw the plum blossoms, they said: I don't know why, why did the one in my family suddenly become so diligent, as if he was a different person......
