"Director Qin, I was actually married, but that short marriage was too far away from me, and it was almost a life trial."

Qin Songmu was surprised at first, and then figured it out. Since the other party had a failed short marriage history, it means that he definitely had more pain than happiness and more trouble than joy. Is the other party's marriage the turning point of his life?

Qin Songmu did not interrupt, but listened to the other party's statements intently-

"My family is very poor, not like other families. Life is getting better and better. Although we are from the city, my parents have a bad job and belong to the same town-run enterprise. Without any benefits, they were forced to sell their work experience, get a meager capital, and start a small business. However, they did not succeed. My father suffered from congenital heart disease and could not do too hard things, so my family's life has always been very difficult. Later, my two brothers and a sister got married and left the family one after another. After I graduated from high school, I found a temporary job and made a living. My parents were naturally worried about my marriage. Because I was very introverted, I definitely couldn't get married to my girlfriend, so my father begged my grandfather and finally moved a matchmaker. I was twenty-six years old and experienced my first blind date...

When Qin Songmu heard this, he couldn't help but think that since he mentioned the first blind date, it means that this blind date had a deep impression of him, and it might have made his first marriage.

Sure enough, a hint of joy suddenly appeared in Zhang Rongfeng's eyes: "That girl is from the suburbs. But in that era, rural household registration was better than urban household registration. Because all the privileges of urban people were gone. For example, buying coal and grain had all cancelled affordable supply. Moreover, with the large number of factories closing down, many people were unemployed. However, farmers had land, a means of production, and could gain wealth through hard work. At that time, there was a saying circulating in us: farmers were happy, workers were worried, and intellectuals lived in high-rise buildings. In other words, only urban people working in careers and administrative units were iron rice bowls."

Qin Songmu and Zhang Rongfeng are peers, so they naturally know that social history. It is true that when the reform began, many backward enterprises shut down and transferred, breaking all forms of iron rice bowls. There were a wave of laid-off workers, while the rural areas implemented a joint contract responsibility system and soon became rich. Therefore, he couldn't help but sigh.

Zhang Rongfeng continued to preach: "Our family is really not as good as rural people, so naturally I wouldn't mind the woman's household registration. In this case, the woman and I met at the matchmaker's house. That was my first blind date, so I was very nervous. I was actually a man who wanted to be face-saving, and I was afraid that the woman would disagree and let my face be ruined. When I first met that girl, I couldn't help but feel excited. Because it was spring, she was wearing an orange sweater, a blue trousers on her lower body, and a pair of flat old leather shoes on her feet. Everything seemed so simple, and she was really a rural girl. But her appearance was like a fairy. I couldn't believe that there was such a beautiful girl who could go to me face to face to date."

When Qin Songmu heard this, he couldn't help but resonate with the other party. When he first met Pan Yueting, wasn't he emotionally cynicized? He even had insomnia for her... Alas, it was such a bad fate. Is the other party the same experience as him?

However, Zhang Rongfeng's story is that it seems to have evoked a happy past that made his melancholy eyes suddenly shine with a glimmer of relief.

"When I face such a beautiful girl, I suddenly felt ashamed of myself, and thought to myself, how can I be worthy of others with my own money and power? I was in a complicated mood at that time. In that atmosphere, I almost suffocated myself, so I had to say goodbye in advance. Afterwards, I didn't dare to inquire about other people's attitude. But maybe fate was destined, and the girl actually fell in love with me. This was simply incredible."

Qin Songmu couldn't help but sigh when he heard this. Because he knew in his heart that since the other party had reached the current level, he would definitely not be the luck of love, but probably the disaster of love.

Zhang Rongfeng next said: "Since I confirmed my relationship with her, I felt like I was given a stimulant injection, which completely rejuvenated me. I thought I was working in a cement factory and spent my night shift once a week. But after I finished my night shift, I didn't rest during the day, but soaked in her greenhouse..."

"What are you doing in someone's greenhouse?" Qin Songmu finally couldn't help interrupting him.

"Of course it's work." Zhang Rongfeng recalled sweetly, "At that time, her parents were old, and her brother and sister had already started family. She was the only one who helped her parents grow vegetables. But how could her delicate body do such rough work? So I took on most of the farm work in her family. Do you know? By helping her family do farm work, I mastered a lot of agricultural knowledge, learned how to prune and graft, and gradually became a good farmer."

Qin Songmu couldn't help but sigh when he heard this. It seemed that love can really change a person. It will make a lazy person extremely diligent. He couldn't help but recall the scene when he first married Pan Yueting-

Originally, Qin Songmu was a rough man in life, but because he married Pan Yueting in his dream, he seemed to have another man. At that time, he took the initiative to clean up the house and cleaned the small house at that time. When his mother came to visit her son, when she saw the tidy home, she thought it was his daughter-in-law who was doing it, and she really praised her daughter-in-law, which made Pan Yueting very embarrassed at that time.

However, Qin Songmu's memory did not make him feel relieved, but sighed secretly. He interrupted his unbearable past and continued to listen to Zhang Rongfeng's story-

"My actions quickly conquered the girl's parents. She and I got married in the autumn that year. I thought that she and I met in spring and spread our emotions. When autumn came, they finally had fruitful fruits. This was the most romantic life journey. But she...

Qin Songmu couldn't help but interrupt: "But she is not as perfect as her appearance, but a woman that you can't stand."

Zhang Rongfeng looked at him in shock: "Why did you insult her like this?"

When Qin Songmu saw the other party's reproachful expression, he was confused: "Your marriage eventually failed. Isn't it because of her?"

Zhang Rongfeng's eyes, which were originally a little relieved, dimmed in an instant: "Director Qin, things are not what you imagined. My wife has always been very nice to me. However, the second year after her marriage, she actually got a terminal illness."

Qin Songmu immediately showed a horrified look. It can be imagined that the woman was diagnosed with a terminal illness, which is probably more terrifying than any reason.

Sure enough, Zhang Rongfeng said sadly: "She was only twenty-four years old at that time... she was still as old as a flower..."

When Qin Songmu saw the other party's voice choked, he signaled him to rest for a while and drink a little water first.

Zhang Rongfeng first expressed his gratitude, took a sip of water to moisten his throat, and then opened his mouth again-

"When I was carrying the confirmed certificate issued by the hospital, I felt like a bolt from the blue and was stunned. Not only me... My parents were also shocked. My wife could hardly accept this fact. She was in pain at that time. After I was sad, I decided to save her life at all costs. But... I sold all the property and houses of the newly established small family for her. Originally, the house belonged to my parents, but I sold it, which made them rent a house with us. The kindness of my parents to me was even heavier than Mount Tai...."

"Mr. Zhang, don't be excited, speak slowly." Qin Songmu saw that he was very excited, so he quickly persuaded him.

"Although the doctor has sentenced her to death, I can't watch her die. So, on the road to seeking medical treatment for her, I have taken too many detours. Sometimes when I encounter treatment methods that are not reliable, I spare money to try it for her. This really fits a saying in society - a dead horse is treated as a living horse. Unfortunately, when I put all my strength into it, she still didn't keep her. After I took care of her for three years, she finally passed away with regret. All she could leave was a large loan shark. From then on, I embarked on a bumpy journey of life."

After listening to the tragic love and marriage that Qin Songmu couldn't help but burst into tears. He felt that his experience was nothing compared to others. He gently wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes and thought to himself that it was fortunate that Fang Xiaowan was not present, otherwise she would have to cry.

After Zhang Rongfeng revisited this past event, he was also sighing for a long time.

Qin Songmu finally broke the deadlock: "What about later?"

"After she left, I was in a period of mental depression for a long time. I had no motivation for life. I didn't even want to care about the usury. But my parents were unwilling to let me go to the point of falling. The two elders helped me regain my spirits. At that time, our family of three was doing small business, even setting up street stalls, saving money to pay off the debts. After several years of hard work, I finally paid off the debts of those long legs. But I was in my thirties. Just when my parents were still trying to help me arrange a wife, my dad suddenly fell down."

Qin Songmu's eyes couldn't help but get wet when he heard this. He could imagine that when another relative fell from this poor family, he would encounter a big blow.

Zhang Rongfeng continued to state sadly: "My father had congenital heart disease and could not work hard. But he was worried about me. When he was hospitalized, he was completely at his own expense. I didn't have much money at that time, so I had to rely on my two brothers and a sister to help me with it. For my father, I gave up everything. At that time, he used the best medicines in the hospital at that time. I remember high-priced drugs such as 'bacteria' and 'milinon'. However, his heart had completely failed. After spending tens of thousands of yuan, he had to send him away. I endured great grief and depended on my mother for life. But... Mom... "

Zhang Rongfeng said this and made Qin Songmu understand completely. It was the disease of his relatives that forced the man in front of him to such a desperate situation in his life. However, the special medicine injected by his old mother is undoubtedly "stripping and peeling the cocoon" on his body. Can he survive?

Qin Songmu thought of this and expressed his opinion: "Mr. Zhang, you are willing to take care of your mother alone, just because you regard her as your community of shared destiny, so you don't compare with other brothers and sisters, right?"

Zhang Rongfeng nodded calmly: "It is fate that makes me share weal and woe with my mother. I have nothing now, but my mother is the only relative. How can I care about what responsibilities other relatives should bear?"

"But... Your mother didn't give birth to you after all, so you can bear it yourself. Can you bear it?"
