Dislike the poor and love the rich, this is true at all times and in all countries.
No matter how 'good' Zhou Qiang performed.
After knowing that Zhou Qiang's family conditions are very poor, most women will stay away from Zhou Qiang.
Moreover, the poorer the place, the more concerned about the rich and poor.
The conditions of Zhou Qiang's family are very poor.
Girls in the city look down on Zhou Qiang.
The girls in the village also looked down upon Zhou Qiang.
Only Wang Meili, who was also very poor inside, didn't care about Zhou Qiang's poverty.
Wang Meili could give up Zhou Qiang for the sake of her family.
But when her family didn't need Wang Meili's contribution, she didn't care about Zhou Qiang's family's poverty and wanted to be with Zhou Qiang.
Does such a woman really exist in the world?
have no idea.
Anyway, there should be such a person.
And it's the most beautiful one.
Here, we need a wonderful woman like Wang Meili.
Wang Meili, she is prettier than Qin Jingru, prettier than Yu Li, prettier than Qin Huairu and others.
Such a beautiful woman is kind-hearted, filial and sensible, and takes good care of her younger brothers and sisters. She doesn't mind the poor situation of Zhou Qiang's family, and she loves Zhou Qiang wholeheartedly.
is it possible?
Maybe.
The world's great wonders.
Zhou Qiang and Wang Meili's engagement party was held at Zhou Shan's house.
Zhou Qiang specially prepared some delicious food.
Zhou Qiang's job is destined to be full of food and drink.
Pork, beef, mutton, chicken, duck, goose, fish and shrimp, all kinds of seasonal fruits and vegetables, Zhou Qiang has prepared everything.
Zhou Qiang can get all this food. It stands to reason that Zhou Qiang will definitely not be short of money as long as he sells it secretly.
But Zhou Qiang didn't do this.
Zhou Qiang didn't do anything illegal.
He doesn't trade on the black market or speculate.
He felt that it was not worth breaking the law just for the sake of "external possessions".
Besides, it’s not necessary.
Zhou Qiang's job requires him to go to the countryside frequently, and he is subsidized for going to the countryside.
His monthly salary, plus subsidies, can reach seventy or eighty yuan.
He doesn't have many places to spend money, but he can save a lot of money in a month.
Zhou Qiang's engagement party was quite lively.
All the relatives and friends of the Zhou family came.
Zhou Tong, his father and his son, were also having a meal in the corner. After they were reformed through labor, they changed a lot. At least they no longer dared to wander around in the streets.
After Zhou Qiang got engaged.
Word spread quickly.
But not many girls envy Wang Meili.
They all think Wang Meili is stupid and doesn't know how to find a good family.
Previously, the aloof Zhou Qiang had become the object of many people's contempt because Zhou Qiang was 'poor'.
Qin Jingru also felt that Zhou Qiang was ordinary. When Zhou Qiang went to Qinjiazhuang, Qin Jingru disappeared.
She doesn't go to the fields either, she just thinks about marrying a rich man in the city every day.
Time goes on.
Zhou Qiang continued to be busy.
The days passed.
The farmers who usually respected Zhou Qiang looked down on him, but they all completed what Zhou Qiang asked them to do.
Because they know that what Zhou Qiang said is right. If they don't do what Zhou Qiang says, they will lose.
Wangzhuang.
Wang Meili's home.
Zhou Qiang is here again.
Since the engagement.
Zhou Qiang's visits to Wangzhuang increased significantly.
Every time he comes, he is never empty-handed.
The food of the Wang family has been greatly improved.
Before, the Wang family didn't have enough to eat.
Now, not only do they have enough to eat, they also have meat.
"Brother-in-law, I want to eat beef!"
"Brother-in-law, I want to eat fish!"
"Brother-in-law, I want to eat eggs!"
"Brother-in-law, I want to eat pork belly!"
"Okay, we have them all, you can eat whatever you want." Zhou Qiang also takes great care of Wang Meili's younger siblings.
Wang Meili has four younger brothers and sisters.
Two younger brothers, Wang Jiawen, 16 years old, and Wang Jiawu, 12 years old.
Two younger sisters, Wang Meiyun, 14 years old, and Wang Meiyan, 9 years old.
They all do well in their studies. They are either first in the junior high school grade or first in the elementary school grade.
They are all young readers.
Under normal circumstances, they can all go to college.
However, they will not have the opportunity to go to college in a short time.
"Brother Qiang, why did you bring so many things with you?" Wang Meili had a pretty face with a smile.
When she saw Zhou Qiang, her eyes were shining.
She admires Zhou Qiang and likes him very much.
She does not regret getting engaged to Zhou Qiang.
She didn't care that Zhou Qiang had a heavy burden and a lot of foreign debt.
She is willing to work hard with Zhou Qiang to live a happy life.
She is a strange woman with some "whimsical" ideas.
"Meili, you know, there is no shortage of food in my job." Zhou Qiang also gradually fell in love with Wang Meili.
This girl is a rare 'treasure girl'.
"Researcher Zhou is here? Come in and have tea." Wang Dashun's title to Zhou Qiang did not change. He still respects Zhou Qiang. He knew that Zhou Qiang had real talent and knowledge and could truly make the people of Wangzhuang live a good life.
"Uncle Wang, I brought you some tea."
"It costs you money again."
"This is nothing. Uncle Wang, how about the new seeds in the ground?"
“The new seeds have sprouted and are growing well.
The pigs we raised are doing well too.
In addition, I dug up a lot of medicinal materials at the place you pointed out.
You will be brought to the city later." Under Zhou Qiang's guidance, Wang Dashun did a lot of things.
Among them, digging medicinal materials in the wild can legally increase the income of the Wang family.
It is too easy for Zhou Qiang to help the Wang family.
There is no need for Zhou Qiang to directly provide money for subsidies. He only needs to guide Wang Dashun to do more things, and the Wang family's financial situation can be greatly improved.
Children have no money to study? This problem will be solved soon.
"That's good, Uncle Wang, let's take a look together later."
"Okay, Researcher Zhou, there are some medicinal materials that I don't know how to handle yet."
We chatted for a while about planting, breeding, medicinal materials, etc.
The meal is ready.
It was cooked by Wang Meili and her mother Liu Zhen.
Using the ingredients brought by Zhou Qiang, it is very rich and tastes good.
Zhou Qiang and the Wang family had dinner together.
"Jiawen, have you been admitted to a technical secondary school?" Zhou Qiang asked. Wang Meili's younger brother, Wang Jiawen, has good academic performance.
"Brother-in-law, I was admitted to an agricultural school." Well, Wang Jiawen was influenced by Zhou Qiang and also admitted to an agricultural school.
"Agricultural school is hard, so why don't you get admitted to architecture school?"
"Brother-in-law, I want to be like you and cultivate better seeds so that everyone can have enough to eat." Wang Jiawen's eyes lit up. He found what he wanted to do.
Wang Jiawu and others also clamored to take the agricultural school entrance examination.
"You can take the exam in agricultural schools, and other schools are also good, such as architecture." Zhou Qiang started chatting casually.
After dinner, Zhou Qiang, Wang Dashun, Wang Meili, and some relatives of the Wang family went to the fields together.
Zhou Qiang walked along the field path and carefully observed each seedling.
"You're really good, Uncle Wang, you've put in a lot of effort." Zhou Qiang never forgets to work hard every time he comes here.
"Researcher Zhou, we all did as you said and we were not lazy." Wang Meili's second uncle, Wang Ershun, replied. His family's situation is also not good and he has many children.
"That's good, uncles, here's what you're going to do next." Zhou Qiang patiently gave everyone instructions on breeding and planting.
A lot of other medicinal materials were also mentioned.
Everyone's eyes are full of hope.
Under the leadership of Zhou Qiang.
The Wang Dashun family, even the entire Wang family, and the entire Wangzhuang, are undergoing rapid changes.
After a month or two, there may not be much change, and no obvious changes can be seen.
After three or four months, there were some changes, but they still seemed inconspicuous.
Half a year later, every household in Wangzhuang will have enough to eat.
Such a situation happened suddenly, and the people of Wangzhuang felt that the change was coming so fast!
one year later.
The people of Wangzhuang don’t have to worry about having no money for their children’s education.
They planted and raised crops and achieved great results.
Wangzhuang was specifically praised.
Every household in Wangzhuang received more food.
Other medicinal materials, etc. The additional income has also increased greatly.
The food and drink expenses suddenly became much more abundant.
Children going to school is no longer a problem.
No need, the children dropped out of school to earn work points at home.
The people of Wangzhuang respected Zhou Qiang from the bottom of their hearts.
Some villagers who had previously looked down upon Zhou Qiang became full of respect for Zhou Qiang again.
This situation was also known to the people in the surrounding villages.
Only then did they understand what kind of person Zhou Qiang was.
so amazing!
Zhou Qiang made the entire village of Wangzhuang rich in just one year.
However, there are both good and bad views on Zhou Qiang.
One is to respect Zhou Qiang very much.
One kind still despises Zhou Qiang.
It is easy to understand that we respect Zhou Qiang because Zhou Qiang can bring tangible benefits to the people.
It's easy to disrespect Zhou Qiang because Zhou Qiang only made other people rich while he himself still owed a lot of debt.
Agricultural science station.
A relatively large conference room.
"In view of Comrade Zhou Qiang's outstanding performance this year, after everyone's discussion, it was unanimously decided to give Comrade Zhou Qiang the treatment of a senior technician and issue a corresponding certificate. Everyone congratulates Comrade Zhou Qiang!" Wang Baoguo personally awarded Zhou Qiang a senior technician certificate. .
Thunderous applause broke out.
"Thank you, thank you for your recognition!" Zhou Qiang thanked him frequently.
Zhou Qiang has made great achievements in breeding, planting, pesticides, etc.
The Agricultural Science Station has never achieved such great results in recent years.
A few years ago, or even ten years ago, the cumulative achievements of the Agricultural Science Station were not as high as those achieved by Zhou Qiang in just a few years.
Zhou Qiang's research results have been promoted in the suburbs of Beijing.
The grain produced in the fields, the increase of poultry in the farms, etc. all speak for themselves with 'facts'.
Zhou Qiang's breeding and planting techniques have greatly increased poultry and grain production.
No one can erase the achievements before our eyes.
Wang Baoguo, the director of the Agricultural Science Station, is not one to erase the achievements of his subordinates.
On the contrary, he is an upright person.
Zhou Qiang said that being promoted to senior technician in just one year was too fast, saying that he should wait five or six years at the earliest.
However, Wang Baoguo disagreed.
He said, "Zhou Qiang, since you have made achievements, I should provide you with corresponding treatment.
You are a talent, a rare agricultural talent.
As long as we at the Agricultural Science Station are not blind, we cannot turn a blind eye to your contributions. "
Everyone at the Agricultural Science Station, including Wang Baoguo, agreed to give Zhou Qiang the treatment of a senior technician.
The salary of a senior technician is as high as one hundred.
With the addition of subsidies, Zhou Qiang has no shortage of money since then.
"Zhou Qiang, I hope you will continue to work hard and achieve greater results again."
"Definitely, I will definitely not disappoint everyone's expectations."
In an alley near the courtyard.
A small courtyard, not too big nor too small.
yard.
Wang Xiuping is introducing the house to Zhou Qiang.
"Xiaoqiang, look, this house belongs to an individual and can be transferred to your name.
However, the house was in disrepair and had some leaks. "
"Don't be afraid of leaks, just find someone to fix it. But, Aunt Wang, will there be any problem if the property is transferred to my name?" Zhou Qiang was worried about other things. After all, at this time, personal transactions in houses are basically not allowed.
"No problem, Xiaoqiang, don't worry, I will handle the transfer of ownership, there will be no problem." Wang Xiuping took care of everything.
"Aunt Wang, how much does this house cost?"
"Three hundred and six. Do you have enough money? If not, I will lend it to you."
"It should be enough. Aunt Wang, after the transfer of ownership, I would like to ask you to help introduce a few skilled craftsmen to repair the house."
"I've found them for you. Now you can ask them to come over and start work."
"Thank you Aunt Wang."
"You're welcome. Xiaoqiang, I heard that the new seeds you cultivated have increased the yield a lot."
"Yes, it has increased a bit."
"Xiaoqiang, I also heard that you have developed a new breeding technology that has increased the supply of meat a lot. It has become easier for our family to buy meat."
"The supply of meat is too much." What Zhou Qiang did has begun to affect everyone's lives.
The matter of the marriage room is settled.
A year has passed.
Zhou Qiang is 20 years old and Wang Meili is 18 years old.
They are both of legal age for marriage.
They can get married.
This evening.
Large courtyard.
Zhou Qiang’s family.
Zhou Juan and others finished their homework.
"Xiaojuan, Xiaofang, Xiaosheng, come here." Zhou Qiang wanted to talk about his marriage.
"Brother, are you getting married?" Zhou Juan had already made a guess. She is already fifteen years old and can be considered a big girl.
"Yes. Xiaojuan, Xiaofang, Xiaosheng, and the second brother met a girl from Wangzhuang.
Her name is Wang Meili.
I am eighteen years old this year.
She gave up the opportunity to go to high school for her younger siblings.
She is a gentle and virtuous woman
In a few days, I will marry Wang Meili home. "
"Second brother, will Sister Meili drive us away?" Zhou Fang asked. She is twelve years old and sensible.
"No, she and I have already agreed that she will marry you and take care of you and cook for you."
"Second brother, you and Sister Meili live in this big house, and Xiaofang, Xiaosheng, I, and I live in the small house next door." Zhou Juan said.
"Xiaojuan, I borrowed a small house nearby.
Beauty and I live there.
Usually, we eat there.
When it's time to go to bed at night, Xiaojuan and Xiaofang live in this big house.
Xiao Sheng lives in the cabin next door. "Zhou Qiang didn't say he bought the house, only borrowed it.
"Second brother, don't you want us anymore?" Zhou Fang immediately asked with red eyes.
"Don't talk nonsense. Second brother will not let you go.
You are getting older, it’s time to sleep in separate rooms. "When Zhou Qiang said this, he looked at Zhou Sheng, "Xiao Sheng, you are ten years old and a man. Are you afraid of sleeping alone? "
"Don't be afraid! Second brother, I have long wanted to sleep alone." Zhou Sheng said, patting his chest.
"Xiaojuan, Xiaofang, Xiaosheng, let's go to the nearby house later. That's the second brother's wedding room. From now on, your sister-in-law will cook for you there.
It's just that the house over there isn't big, it only has two rooms. If you all go there, it won't be able to fit in.
You are still sleeping here.
Usually, eating, doing homework, etc. are all there. "
"Okay, second brother."
Nothing more was said.
Zhou Qiang took his younger brothers and sisters to a nearby small yard.
It has been repaired here.
Zhou Qiang did not make any major renovations, nor did he build indoor toilets or indoor bathrooms.
However, this small yard has its own toilet.
Zhou Qiang asked the masters to work harder to cover up the smell of the toilet.
Normally, when you go to the toilet, the smell won't be too strong.
"Second brother, there isn't much furniture here." Zhou Juan said.
"The previous ones are all broken, and I haven't had time to buy new ones yet. I'll go to the flea market another day to find some old furniture."
"Second brother, sister-in-law won't dislike us, right?" Zhou Juan couldn't help but ask this question.
"No, Wang Meili has met you. Do you remember the last time we went to Zhouzhuang? There was a beautiful sister who gave you sweets."
"Ah? I remembered, second brother, sister-in-law is that beautiful sister?" Zhou Fang remembered.
Zhou Qiang had previously arranged for Wang Meili to meet his younger siblings.
However, Wang Meili was embarrassed and did not explain her identity.
"That sister is so good." Zhou Sheng also thought about it.
Zhou Juan nodded. They all thought Wang Meili was good.
"So, you don't have to be afraid, Wang Meili will be kind to you."
1965, summer.
Someday.
Firecrackers sounded in the courtyard.
Zhou Qiang got married on this day.
Wang Meili lives in a nearby guest house.
Zhou Qiang borrowed a car and picked up Wang Meili.
A car.
When most people get married, it would be nice to have a new bicycle.
Zhou Qiang borrowed a car, which was quite impressive. (The car is borrowed from Lou Xiaoe.)
In the envious eyes of everyone, Wang Meili entered the courtyard.
Among the onlookers was Qin Jingru.
She came here specifically to see Zhou Qiang get married.
This wedding ceremony made Qin Jingru extremely envious.
She thought: "When I get married in the future, I will have such a grand ceremony."
"Are you envious?" Qin Huairu was also watching, and she also envied Wang Meili. When she got married, there was no such big occasion.
"No." Qin Jingru said duplicity, "That bike was borrowed. Zhou Qiang definitely can't afford a new bike."
"Who says there isn't? I saw it a few days ago. There are new bicycles, new sewing machines, new watches, and new radios." Qin Huairu looked envious.
"What? Three turns and one ring are all together?" Qin Jingru didn't believe it.
"There are still fake ones, I've seen them all." Qin Huairu was extremely envious.
"But, sister, doesn't Zhou Qiang have no money? Doesn't he have foreign debts?"
"Jingru, you still don't understand? Zhou Qiang deliberately lied to you."
"Lied to us?"
"Yes, how can someone as capable as Zhou Qiang have no money? How can he have foreign debt? Why are you still confused?"
"Why did he lie to us?"
"Why? Jingru, why do you think it is? You more than thirty girls all despise the poor and love the rich, and you all look down on Zhou Qiang. Do you regret it now?"
"What about the house? Zhou Qiang's family only has two rooms. They said that the house will be given to his younger brothers and sisters in the future. Zhou Qiang will live in the farm dormitory."
"House? Haha, Zhou Qiang has already borrowed a house. It is in a small courtyard nearby. It is a single-family house and there is a toilet in the yard." Qin Huairu continued to be envious.
"What? Borrow a house? How can I borrow a house?"
"This is Zhou Qiang's ability, but ordinary people can't borrow it." Qin Huairu looked at Qin Jingru with some pity. She was thinking that if Qin Jingru married Zhou Qiang, she might be able to support their family.
Qin Jingru was speechless. She looked at Wang Meili not far away, feeling extremely envious and regretful, "I was originally the new daughter-in-law."
Qian Weiguo, Wang Xiuping, Ma Dong and others helped Zhou Qiang host the wedding.
From the large courtyard, Yi Zhonghai, Liu Haizhong, and Yan Bugui all stood aside.
He Yuzhu is the chef.
Zhou Qiang was not stingy. He prepared a lot of ingredients, set up more than ten tables, and invited relatives, friends, and people from the courtyard to eat together.
This wedding made the little daughter-in-law in the courtyard extremely envious.
They will probably blame their masters at night.
