Chapter 068 Illness

Pu Dajun felt that his health was very bad recently. Many times he felt unable to do so. He just forced himself to hold on. After all, he was already in his forties and fifties, no longer younger than before.

Soon he became ill and felt his body become heavier and heavier, as if he was filled with lead, no longer having the flexibility and strength of the past.

He felt his soul become exhausted, as if his body was about to collapse. He rested for many days and seemed to have recovered a little. The doctor told him not to do too heavy physical labor.

At this time, the daughter of the third uncle's family in the same village in Pu Dajun suddenly came back and came back with a lot of money, saying that she wanted to build a shop on the town and sell some baby products.

On the day she came back, she invited many people in the village to have a meal and brought them a lot of gifts.

Pu Dajun and the San Uncle's family were considered to be related. Although they were distant relatives, they were closer than ordinary families. The San Uncle's daughter gave them some things, which were brought from abroad.

My mother has never seen her before, and she finds it very novel when she sees her.

There are many rumors that the third uncle's daughter is outside and can only open a store by relying on the money from the financial owner, otherwise what would a rural woman make so much money?

Why does a woman who is neither educated nor has much resources earn a lot of money in the city? The farmers in the village have been working hard for most of their lives, and only a thousand or eight hundred a year. Working outside only costs some hard work. This money is something that farmers cannot earn in their entire lives.

In an agricultural society that relies on the heavens to make a living, there is a strong sense of relying on the heavens to make a living in the culture of farmers, and everything depends on nature. Many things cannot be done by one's own ability. In the bureaucratic autocratic dynasty and the underlying culture, praying for a better era is also predictable.

From this perspective, the so-called weak culture in rural areas is not the root cause of backwardness, but the result of backwardness.

That is, from the perspective of poverty alleviation, most of us get rid of poverty after the reform and opening up, but rely on the relief of various constraints, so that we can freely enter the market and pursue our own happiness through our own struggles.

Obviously, this process is not caused by changes in cultural attributes, but in turn, this process leads to changes in cultural attributes.

Of course, from a micro perspective, we will not naively believe that the whole process is completely spontaneous and endogenous without external intervention. On the one hand, external intervention always exists, either intervention in this direction or intervention in that direction; on the other hand, only through deep communication with the outside world and rapid learning can huge changes be made in a short period of time.

But these interventions are by no means a savior. In other words, from a macro perspective, all saviors appear small and insignificant.

In this era, relying on personal struggles, there is no backing anymore. This relatively backward culture has been somewhat unable to keep up with the times. Once it is swept by the trend of modernization, it will be fragmented and can no longer be condensed.

Uncle San’s daughter planned to open a maternal and child supplies store in the town. After choosing a suitable shop, she naturally needed some decoration. Pu Dajun simply volunteered to take on these tasks.

Anyway, I am just doing odd jobs, so I don’t do anything, and I’m not doing it well. I can get some care when working at a relative’s house. If I work outside, if I’m lazy and I’m found out, I will definitely be cold and cold.

Uncle San naturally agreed to help Pu Dajun and kept him going for three meals a day. Pu Dajun also worked hard. After lying for a few days, he felt weak and sweaty. He was just so energetic.

The decoration style is done according to the requirements of the third uncle's daughter. He is doing the procurement and work. When working, the third uncle's daughter often sends him some food. His physical damage seems to be healing a little bit. As his body recovers, he works harder and the final decoration effect is very good.

On the day the renovation was completed, the third uncle's family also came to see him and expressed their appreciation for Pu Dajun's craftsmanship. On that day, Pu Dajun also saw the financial owner of Uncle Third's daughter. The man looked big and stool-bellied and was not worthy of Uncle Third's daughter at all.

Of course, Pu Dajun also knew that this kind of words was not what he should have said, but he just kept silent.

The third uncle's daughter introduced that when she arrived at Pu Dajun, she told the financial owner that Pu Dajun was a relative of her family and that he was responsible for the decoration. The financial owner just whispered from his nose, and he didn't take these countrymen seriously at all.

Pu Dajun was a little angry. Isn’t he just a city member? If I were born in the city, I would be worse than you.

When I officially moved here, I invited the villagers to come and celebrate according to the customs of the village. I set up a few tables in the restaurant in the town. There were many people on the table and there were many jealous people. It was worth it to betray myself to live in the house in the town. I wonder if I could sell it once. The second-rate Sanbao in the village drank a few more cups, and when I saw that the third uncle and daughter were beautiful, I couldn't help teasing her.

Pu Dajun immediately went over and punched him, knocking him to the ground.

The third uncle's daughter hurried over to stop him, "What are you doing?" How could you hit someone? She grabbed Pu Dajun and asked in confusion.

He said some swear words to insult you. We are family members at least, how can we make him scold him? Pu Dajun explained.

After saying that, he stepped on Sanbao a few more times. He was not allowed to say these dirty words in the future. He would hit you once again when he heard it. Pu Dajun warned him.

The third uncle's daughter is very grateful for his righteousness and often comes out, but Pu Dajun knows the identity of the third uncle's daughter and has always been very reserved. That day, the third uncle's daughter asked him out again.

Pu Dajun refused on the pretext of refusing to leave, but the third uncle's daughter was unwilling to ask if she looked down on her.

Pu Dajun naturally refused to say yes, so Uncle Third's daughter invited him again. He couldn't refuse and followed him. Unexpectedly, Uncle Third's daughter actually took him to a wilderness and said to him by the river: Are you willing to be with me?

Others think I am unbearable. Only you are willing to care about me. It is better for us to be together and ignore other people's rumors. The third uncle's daughter said to him.

Pu Dajun was only very surprised. He didn't expect that Uncle Third's daughter would think so. He always felt that he was a sinner. Seeing that Uncle Third's daughter was pitiful, he wanted to take care of her, but he didn't expect that Uncle Third's daughter would feel that he liked her.

Such a misunderstanding is really a coincidence, but Pu Dajun does not like his third uncle's daughter and does not know how to reject her.

He could only say helplessly: I am not worthy of you, you should have a better destination,

But I think you are very good. You work hard outside and never scold the women at home. They are better than many rural people. The third uncle's daughter said to him.

Pu Dajun is different from ordinary rural people. He has a great Confucian temperament hidden in him. Perhaps it is because Pu Dajun also fantasized about being a writer when he was young.
