The male protagonist is a traditional farmer. His wife wants to sell the land to the big cities. After the 4,000 mu of land, the hostess must sell the land and divorce to live in the city.

The male protagonist saw a corpse bitten by a mouse when he lost his luggage


Life could go on, and the tragedy began. The 15-year-old son made the neighbor’s daughter's belly bigger because the family was poor (how poor is 7000 mu of land) and the two children were too young to get married, and the neighbor was going to send his daughter out. After giving birth to a child, it costs 300 yuan to send the child to be raised by someone else. The neighbor asks the male lead for 75 yuan. The male lead said that he has no money and would not borrow money (I was surprised that the family has a total of 7000 mu of land to take it. For less than 75 yuan, are all the stones planted in this field?), the 15-year-old son eloped with his pregnant girlfriend. If he had no money, he went to robbery. If he walked more nights, he would meet a ghost, once When he left after the robbery, his girlfriend was shot and bleeds to death in the cabin without going to the hospital. The boy committed suicide and fed mice.
Good-looking little heroine


The male protagonist kept seeing hallucinations. He was bitten by a mouse. The wound was festered. He had his hand amputated at the hospital. In the end, the house was sold cheaply.

  • Wilfred James: Money fixes everything, right? As the wife says, no money *spoils* everything, boy. Now I know that. Shannon will, too, now that she's got a baby to watch out for now. You'll see.

    Henry James: Not if they make her give it away.

    Wilfred James: That don't change how a woman feels when she got a chap in the belly. You see a chap makes a woman feel wise in ways a man don't understand, son. Now, I haven't lost any respect for you, just because you gonna have a baby. Or her. You ain't the first. You certainly won't be the last. But you will not, hey, You will *not* ask a five-month pregnant girl to run off with you.

  • Wilfred James: [narrating] Waiting for a teenage boy to come to his senses is like waiting for a broomstick to sprout flowers.
