Divination in the 1970s

1

The morning of the Red Flag Brigade was like that of all other brigades, filled with all kinds of noises early in the morning.

Luo Damei poured the cooked pig food into the pig pen, looked at the main house, and felt a little unwilling, even wanting to throw the bucket in her hand out.

"Damei, have you fed the pigs? If you have, come and help me get firewood. You always dawdle when I ask you to do something. How are you going to get married in the future?"

Li Hongying added some firewood to the stove, and when she saw that the firewood was running out, she remembered Damei who was going to feed the pigs, and hurriedly called her.

"Mom, you only know how to criticize me. I am still helping to feed the pigs. Look, my younger sister is still asleep in the house. If I don't marry well, my younger sister will never be able to marry in the future."

Luo Damei's dissatisfaction was aroused by her mother's words. Now she vented all her anger without thinking about anything. Her mother would only be angry with her. Why didn't her mother scold her younger sister when she did worse than her?

Li Hongying stood up and looked at the unhappy daughter, and then she said, "How dare you say that? If you hadn't pushed her and caused her to fall, would she still be lying down? You are almost 20 years old and you are still comparing yourself with her. You are about to get married, but you don't even think about doing more work. When they help you find a husband, they will marry you just because you are diligent."

Luo Damei was very sad when she heard this. Why should she do more work? She thought that she would do less work if she married into a good family, but her mother didn't give birth to her properly. She and herself were born from the same mother, but she is fair and clean. No one in the village doesn't praise her for her good looks.

But herself was like a black coal ball. Everyone laughed and said that she was blessed like her father. In her opinion, only good-looking people were blessed. Her aunt married to the city because she was good-looking. Now she lived a good life. Not only did she get a salary every month, but she also had meat coupons and cloth coupons.

She wanted to be like her aunt. She tried to please her every time she came, but her aunt liked her younger sister more. It would be better if she didn't have her younger sister. In this way, she would be the only daughter in the family. Her aunt would definitely treat her better. And her mother and brothers would treat her better even if they didn't like her.

She pushed her younger sister in a moment of madness. She didn't know that her younger sister's head would hit a stone. Now she didn't dare to go over to cause trouble even when her younger sister was lying in bed.

It wasn't that she was afraid of her younger sister, but she was afraid of being punished by her father. She just pushed her younger sister, and her father asked her mother to beat her several times. How could she know that her younger sister would fall on the rocks? Her father was really too cruel.

"Why is it easier to marry if you are diligent? There are educated youth from the city in our village. You can become a city dweller after you find an educated youth."

She was really unwilling, and suddenly thought that the educated youth from the city were not city dwellers, and as long as she married an educated youth, she would be a city dweller.

Li Hongying's face, which had been relaxed, became even more gloomy: "What are you talking about, you damn girl? If you dare to talk nonsense again, I will beat you to death. You are still thinking about an educated youth from the city. I tell you that you'd better give up this idea as soon as possible. The educated youth from the city have seen all kinds of good girls. Why would they like you? Don't you look at what you look like? If you dare to do something shameful, I will drive you out of the house and pretend that I have never given birth to a girl like you."
