My name is Liu Xinyue, an authentic rural girl in Jiangxi. When he was 5 years old, the birth of his younger brother made his parents' eyes almost all focused on him. Although I was neglected, I still worked hard, and after graduating from junior college, I left my hometown and worked as a customer service in a ** store in Zhejiang. The owner, Wang Zhi, is also from Jiangxi, and his e-commerce background has made the store prosperous.
In daily interactions, I admire Wang Zhi's enterprising spirit and empathetic personality, and he also appreciates my seriousness and steadfastness in my work. Our relationship gradually sublimated from working together to a deeper personal relationship. When Wang Zhi proposed to me, I was not only moved, but also had a trace of inferiority. The burden of my family, the monthly living expenses sent home, and my brother's tuition fees made me feel that I was not a good match for him. Not to mention the 200,000 bride price proposed by my parents, which is almost an astronomical amount for me.
But Wang Zhi held my hand and said firmly: "Your family is my family, as long as we have the ability, we will definitely let our family live a good life." "I tried to communicate with my parents and finally reduced the bride price to 160,000. Wang Zhi comforted me: "After marriage, we will work together and everything will be fine." "His understanding and support calmed my anxiety a little.
When Wang Zhi first stepped into my humble brick house, his brows furrowed slightly. Faced with the dilemma of not even having a water heater at home, he has no complaints. Even, within a few days, he found someone to renovate the entire house, install a water heater and air conditioner, and buy basic appliances and furniture. Seeing this, the villagers were envious of their parents for finding such a good son-in-law.
After getting married, we continued to run ** stores in Zhejiang, and Wang Zhi supported me as always to sponsor my younger brother. He said: "We only have one younger brother, and it is right to be good to him, and I hope he can study hard and become independent as soon as possible." "Gradually, however, I noticed that my parents seemed to become more and more dependent on our sponsorship and even gave up their jobs. Every time I go back to my parents' house and hear the villagers making fun of my parents, I have mixed feelings.
I know very well that using money to support my parents is not a long-term solution, but will make them lose their original intention of working hard and becoming rich. So, I started thinking about how to find the right job for my parents that would enrich their lives and give them an income. The idea of growing grapes in greenhouses is taking shape. Wang Zhi also agrees with me, believing that this can not only exercise the body, but also reduce dependence.
We decided to go back to our hometown and help our parents build greenhouses and introduce viticulture. From seed selection, garden construction to fertilization, pest control, every link is done by hand. Although the initial investment was huge, Wang Zhi always encouraged me: "As long as there is a pay, there will always be a return." ”
Today, that vineyard is the new hope for our family. Whenever the grapes are ripe, I am very pleased to look at the clusters of crystal clear fruits. Our parents have also regained their hard-working qualities, their lives have become more fulfilling, and our family has become more harmonious as a result.
