Chapter 5: Go to grandpa's house
The village that had been silent for a night woke up less than six o'clock and became lively.
The chicken coop opened, and the rooster and the hen scrambled to squeeze out. The hen "chuckled" and the rooster held its head high and flapped its wings. The pig couldn't wait, humming with its long mouth in the arch. On the paulownia tree behind the house, the little bird was also chirping. On the small road outside the house, there were "shasha" footsteps and occasional coughs. Those with light footsteps should be empty-handed, and the heavy and stable ones must have picked water from the well. A little bit further away, a woman with a loud voice is yelling, "Go help my brother get dressed!"...
It was also very hot in the morning. Feng Yiping, who wanted to stay in bed for a few minutes, got up quickly. In fact, these days are still a little uncomfortable. I haven't gotten up so early for many years, and get up so early every day.
In the rural areas here, breakfast is never improvised, such as the pot with porridge and steamed buns, no, those who are not hungry, most of the work in the rural areas takes effort.
So I have to cook rice in the morning. Of course, I can order any dishes.
After eating, he helped feed the pigs. Feng Yiping hid the thick pile of manuscript paper in his straw hat, nested the straw hat in the middle, and pinched it in his hand, so that his parents would not see it and it would cost him a lot of money. Tongue.
Mei Qiuping took out a dozen eggs from the jar and packed them in a net bag. The thumb-big bamboo shoots picked from the mountain in the spring were dried and dried. They wrapped a bag and placed them on top of the eggs. He repeatedly asked Feng Yiping to be careful on the road. Jumping around. Feng Yiping joked, "Mom, are you worried about me or eggs?"
Mei Qiuping laughed and cursed, chasing behind and shouting, "The sun is big, put on your hat!"
Grandpa's house, when I was young, was a place where Feng Yiping liked to go. There are a lot of uncles, and they take him to play, without having to work, and he can always eat a few good meals. You can see cars on the road. I feel that my grandpa’s house is more comfortable and modern than home. My mother said that when I was young, there were a few times when I stayed at my grandpa’s house and didn’t want to return. On this point, Feng Yiping has no impression at all.
However, as he grew up, his uncles got married and his wives and children had many things on their own, so there was no time to play with him. He is also gradually sensible, and he has to help do things within his power at home, and it is difficult to play with relatives every day, so he goes less.
This is how farming works in rural areas. One person does something, and two people do something else. If you add two people, you still have something to do. Children can find things for you to do, and elderly people can also find things for you. In short, they are not afraid of crowds and can always find things to do.
To go to Grandpa’s house, it took about 20 miles to climb over three mountains, pass through four villages, and finally reach Meijiayuan, which is located beside the provincial road.
The scenery along the way is actually pretty good, the sky is blue, and when you look around, it is full of green, mixed with colorful wildflowers. The mountains are mainly pine trees, and it is the time when the green is the deepest, and the greenery is dripping.
The last mountain has the best scenery. Below the mountain is a river, the water is not big, but it is very clear, shimmering in the sun, winding among the mountains. The mountain is not high and not too steep, but there are five strong pine trees on the top, which immediately raised its level, with such a vigorous, secluded, and elegant temperament. The most beautiful and eye-catching ones are the brilliantly blooming azaleas in the mountains. Those azaleas in clusters are simply connected in some places. They are very gorgeous and spread on the green background. They are very beautiful.
At this time, if there is a SLR, that would be great.
He walked fast all the way, it was still early at this time, so he simply carried a net bag and climbed towards the top of the mountain. The more you go to the top of the mountain, the clearer the sound of the car's motor on the road far away. The top of the mountain is not big, there is a small flat land, he put the egg on the ground carefully, climbed a big rock, the situation in a radius of a few miles is in sight.
He looked back and saw only the winding road when he came, and he couldn't see Feng Jiachong behind the heavy mountains. Looking ahead, the white highway is at the foot of the mountain over there, beside another river. You may see a car at this time. Here, you can also see the village of Grandpa’s house. Looking into the distance, at the end of the road, where the river turns, you can vaguely see the outline of some buildings, that is, the town.
The mountain breeze swept lightly across his face. Feng Yi calmly looked at the familiar and unfamiliar scenery. He looked forward from time to time, and turned his head back from time to time. More often, he seemed to be sitting there in a daze.
It took almost an hour before he stood up, patted his butt, jumped off the stone, ran down the mountain with a net bag, and sang "Azalea" as he ran.
At the foot of the mountain, an old man walked up the mountain with a cow. He looked at him carrying a net bag of eggs, as if he were walking relatives, but came down from the mountain again. It was a little unclear. Of course he could not think that Feng Yiping was watching the scenery on the mountain, joking, and living here all his life, what's so good about it?
Feng Yiping smiled and nodded to him, "Hold the cows!" He ran towards his grandfather's house.
塆 is not big, there are only 20 families in total. Fifteen miles south along the provincial highway, you will reach the town, and more than 10 miles north, it will be the township middle school where Feng Yiping will study.
Mei’s family also makes a living from farming, just because the highway has been opened a long time ago, there are more ways to make money. More importantly, because it is next to the provincial road, although it is more than 20 miles away from Feng Yiping's home, but the concept is much more enlightened.
Grandma passed away two years ago, and grandfather Mei Jianzhong, just turned 70 this year. He has four sons, plus Feng Yiping's mother, and a total of five children. He has been the captain of the production team before. He has some knowledge and is quite open-minded.
There is an old saying that there are many children and many blessings. This sentence is completely inapplicable in the current rural areas.
Mei Qiuping is the eldest, and there are four brothers below. The other three are married and have a family. They have been separated long ago, and only my uncle is left with her grandpa.
The old man Guo Sheng, farming at home.
The second child, Guoping, has lived the best now. He was a kid and learned craftsmanship with a mason. This year, he took his wife and children to rent a house in the county. Over the past two years, he has built a lot of houses, but he can find things to do all year round. It’s hard work, but the income is good.
Old San Guoxing, the old lady's family is well-known, and everyone from all over the world knows it. Before he got married, he asked for that. In the end, Mei Jianzhong helped him buy the oil workshop in the village, and then he helped the youngest wife to marry in. Another son of Youfang in the village, about seven miles away from his grandfather's house, usually does not come here.
People do not suffer from inequality, but even among brothers! In addition, it is not a fuel-efficient lamp. The parents-in-law bought the oil workshop for the third child. Of course, they did not do it. They kept saying that they only blamed their parents for being honest, and they married without mentioning any requirements. It was a long time for this.
Now the third child has two children. They feel uncomfortable not to say a few strange words every time they meet the third daughter-in-law, so although they are in the same village, the third child’s family doesn’t have much contact with here. .
Of course, more than two thousand years ago, Lao Tzu taught us that everything has two sides, and this is the same. Originally, the first aunt and the second aunt were always nasty. When the third aunt walked in, the two unanimously abandoned the old grudges and entanglements, and joined hands without hesitation to deal with the third aunt.
So, who said that men are the most combative?
In the future, if the younger uncle marries his wife in, chances are that the first aunt and the second aunt will laugh and grudge with the third aunt again, and the three will join forces to target the younger aunt-this possibility is quite high.
My brother-in-law hasn't gotten married yet and now lives with my grandfather. He is the most restless of the four brothers. He bought "Wulin" on the expectation and practiced martial arts according to it. For a while, he was very enthusiastic about qigong. Nowadays, in the provincial capital, grown-ups don’t have a home, so the grandfather in his seventies actually depends on himself.
When Feng Yiping arrived, there was no one in the uncle's house next door, and he was probably still busy in the field.
Grandpa sat under the cherry tree in the backyard, and his two-year-old cousin Rui Rui was chasing after a puppy.
"Grandpa!"
Mei Jianzhong turned around, it turned out that it was the grandson here.
"Doesn't school start? Why are you here?"
said as he entered the house to prepare to pour water for him.
Feng Yiping handed him the things on his hand, and Mei Jianzhong complained, "I don't need food, so why do I bring these things?"
Feng Yiping said, "Grandpa, you are yours. This is a little bit of your parents' intentions as children. It's different."
Grandpa is a little relieved, just after graduating from elementary school, this grandson speaks a little bit.
It was still early, and before lunch, Feng Yiping moved a bench and sat next to his grandfather to chat.
Grandpa asked about the health of his parents, especially his mother. Feng Yiping said that they were all good. When asked about his sister, Feng Yiping said that the bedclothes factory in the city is also good, and he can go home for the New Year at the end of the year. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com
In fact, a girl from the same village had a letter back saying that her sister was not working in a clothing factory in the city, and had worshipped a **** sister with a girl in the city, and then quit her job.
Feng Yiping still complained a bit when he mentioned his sister. After graduating from elementary school, Feng Yuxuan, who was just 15 years old, had no intention of studying. She went to the city with the girls who worked in the textile factory in the village and found a job.
But the girls in the same village who were in the same factory as her, have money to send back every month, month by month, she never, and never even wrote a letter.
I went out the year before last and never went home. I remember that I didn't go home until the end of next year for the New Year. I dressed up very fashionable, but it was less than 100 yuan to my family. Thinking of her daughter going out to work at such a young age, her parents couldn’t bear to be harsh. Even if she said anything, she would say “I’m willing, can you control it?” to the top, and there is a catch phrase that is often used on her lips, “Go yourself The way, let others say go!".
Feng Yuxuan has been unreliable since then, until 1998, Feng Yiping also worked by herself, she subsidized her family less than 500 yuan, eight years, 500 yuan!
When Feng Yiping was in secondary school, it was the most difficult time at home. He was worried about his living expenses of more than 100 yuan every month. After borrowing the former, Feng Yuxuan still did not help. Later, when something happened, everyone didn't mention her, and the family seemed to have forgotten about it. In fact, there was another person who could share the burden and contribute.
