Shen Xiulan, whose engagement was broken off, was introduced to Zhao Dajiang, a farmer from a neighboring village who was too poor to marry a wife.
One is a meek girl who is embarrassed by her parents, and the other is an honest man whose parents died young and has a dull mouth. The two of them did not fall in love passionately, nor did they have any great ambitions. They just learned to live their lives in a dilapidated adobe house.
Shen Xiulan can cook, sew, grow vegetables and raise chickens, while Zhao Dajiang can farm, repair farm tools, and build furniture. She left him a bowl of hot rice, and he worked an extra field for her; she secretly made him a cotton-padded jacket, and he clumsily saved up money to buy her hairpins.
In the trivial daily life of spring plowing, going to the market, autumn harvest, and celebrating the New Year, the two gradually became a dependent couple from strangers.
This is not a slap-in-the-face revenge story, but a slow life full of fireworks. In the poor days, there were quarrels, rumors, and favors from relatives, as well as hot meals, lights, vegetable seedlings in the yard, and a small family that was becoming more and more promising.
Life doesn't have to be rich and powerful, as long as you live a good life day by day, that's enough. I hope readers will believe that among all the lights in every house, there is one light left for you.
