I Had a Home In 1982

   chapter 259

  Ye Changan entertained the students. The meal was not too sumptuous, but the food was large and delicious, and the students did not eat all of them after eating.

   The rest of the dishes and rice were all packed and brought back.

   Just in time for a late night snack for the sales team.

   Wang Dongfeng from the sales team sighed: "I'm used to the fact that the members will have a good meal when they go to the city with Mr. Wang, but I didn't expect that even the students and children will have a good meal when they go to the city with Mr. Wang!"

  Wang Dongxi said: "Mr. Wang, I also want to go to the city with you in the future."

  Wang Yi was helpless: "Get out of the way, go back to eat and drink and hurry to sleep."

   In addition to the sales team, he also brought Qiuweishui back to Tianya Island.

  Yuhong Class does not have summer vacations, because it is a place to look after children no matter in the countryside or in the city. In summer, farmers and fishermen are busier and have no time to look after children.

  Wang Yi was going to warm up the leftovers for the sales team after returning to the island, but a lot of people were waiting on the reef beach in front of the pier.

  Under the dim light, the big guys chatted in groups.

  Tianya No.2 came back, and these people were very excited to surround them: "Is Mr. Wang back?"

   Wang Yi heard these shouts from a distance away.

   This moved him badly.

  I do it.

   Do the members care too much about me? I just took the students to take the exam. Although I will come back later, but with Wang Xianghong, you don't need to worry about me so much, right?

   He stood on the bow and waved and shouted, "I'm back, they're all back!"

   Then he heard someone shout: "Mr. Wang is back, it's time to play the movie!"

  Wang Yi scratched his head suspiciously.

  The boat is docked.

   Got it all...

   The vast majority of the members of the foreign team who came to greet him, as well as the members of the team, came to pick up the children.

The members of the    foreign team saw him and complained a lot: "I wanted to come and watch a movie tonight, but I have been waiting until now..."

   "Mr. Wang and Teacher Xu are not here either. The movie has not been shown tonight..."

  Wang Yi understood, this is a member of the outside team waiting to watch a movie.

   He was very emotional about this: "It's still the fishermen on our outer islands who are bold and are not afraid of rumors of submarine earthquakes."

He didn't let these people wait in vain and said, "Comrades, comrades, because we've lost time, we don't need diesel to watch the movie tonight, and then I'll show you something you've definitely not seen, not a movie, but TV drama!"

   Someone asked in surprise: "Mr. Wang, do you still have a TV in Tianya Island?"

   Wang Yi explained: "It's not a TV, it's a TV series that was recorded as a movie tape, so you can watch the TV series with a movie projector."

  These members were overjoyed and had a heated discussion with each other:

   "It's worth coming tonight, you can watch TV shows without a TV."

   "Haha, it's worth the wait! I'll just say we'll just wait, Wang Zhishu and Teacher Wang are both real people and won't let our members be wronged!"

   "Is there a TV show to watch? That's great, I watched a TV show at my cousin's house for a few days last year, and my cousin borrowed the TV..."

   "What TV show are you watching?"

   Wang Yi said, "It's called "Eighteen Years of the Enemy Camp"!"

Wang Xianghong took the curtain out of the house to hold it up, and moved the generator out in a big confusion. He boldly helped put the projector and sound system. Wang Yi found the videotape of the TV series "Eighteen Years of the Enemy Camp", and then adjusted the projector. The camera position starts playing.

   But tonight on the reef flat it was the students showing off their supper:

   "Mr. Xiaoqiu's grandfather invited us to eat in the second canteen of the county party committee. It's a good place, and only leaders can go there."

   "The meat slices are so fragrant, I ate two and a half bowls of rice."

   "The fried shrimp is also fragrant, much more delicious than steamed, and it is not fishy at all!"

  The boys in the first and second grades became anxious when they understood what they said. Some came to ask Wang Yi, some grieved and wept, and some shouted that they would go to the county to eat big meat slices.

  Wang Zhuangyuan, Wang Kai and others are still proud there: "I went to Hongxing Park in the afternoon. It's really nice to have a playground inside. I took a plane and a rocket in it!"

   "I ate sorbet when I went, and I ate sorbet when I came back."

   "When can I still..."

   "You can be a fart." Wang Xianghong went up and slapped them on the back of the head, "Can't watch TV? Go back to sleep if you don't watch it, hurry back to sleep!"

  The boy was speechless, he quickly stopped showing off and ran to an empty space to watch TV.

   The lower grade students are still clamoring, crying when their parents reprimand or do something.

   Wronged!

  Wang Yi has seen the interpretation of a truth with his own eyes: do not suffer from the few but suffer from the uneven!

   Fortunately, "Eighteen Years of the Enemy Camp" is a brand new story, and the narrative rhythm is different from that of the movie. For children, the narrative rhythm of the movie is too fast, and the story advances so quickly that they can't react.

  The rhythm of the story of the TV series is much slower, and they can slowly accept the context of the story.

  In this way, their attention was quickly attracted by "Eighteen Years of the Enemy Camp".

   "Eighteen Years of the Enemy Camp" is 30 minutes long. Wang Yi played four episodes in a row for a total of two hours, and the rest will continue tomorrow.

  The commune members couldn't watch and didn't want to stop, but Wang Xianghong shouted: "I won't go to work tomorrow? Are you going to watch for a night?"

   When he got angry, the members were afraid, so they could only carry Maza and discuss the plot to go home.

  Wang Yi let Bold lead someone to clean up the mess, and he hurried back to get ready to sleep.

  The colander came over with two warm pots: "Principal, I see that you are very tired, so I'll bring you a pot of hot water to soak your feet."

  Wang Yi said: "Yo, so good? Thank you, one pot of water is enough, why did you take two pots?"

   Colander smiled and said, "Isn't this thinking of asking the principal to give Teacher Xiaoqiu a pot too?"

  Wang Yi patted him on the shoulder.

This guy.

   is very promising!

  If he lived in the feudal dynasty and made up his mind to cut the chicken and enter the palace, then the history book must have the name of the great eunuch.

   So Wang Yi picked up the thermos and sent it to Qiuweishui. Qiuweishui was really preparing to wash his face and go to bed. He came over with the thermos and said 'you soak your feet before sleeping' to warm the girl.

   So the lights went out, and Wang Yi dipped in some light.

   It was going to be late at night, and he was not afraid that someone would see his embarrassment after he went out, so he walked up the mountain abruptly.

   Soaked my feet and slept very sweetly.

   There is no class today, so he gave himself a holiday and slept until he was full before getting up. After getting up, he stretched out the door and sighed forcefully:

   "Who wakes up first in the big dream? I know myself in my life. The cottage slept well in spring, and the sun was late outside the window!"

   "Hey, where is Chichi, where is Chichi, where is Chichi, that little girl's..."

   A little girl really appeared in front of him!

  The recruits, the younger brothers and sisters were staring at him.

  Wang Yi said stunned: "Uh, there is no class today, it's summer vacation, why are you all here?"

  Brother Zhao didn't speak when Wang Xianghong walked out of the brigade committee's office: "Mr. Wang woke up? Haha, did you get tired yesterday? You have been sleeping hard this night."

  Wang Yi greeted him, he waved and said, "Yesterday Comrade Zhang Youxin sent a letter from the county education and sports bureau. We were not at home. The clerk helped to collect it. It should be for you to go to the county's No. 1 middle school to study."

  Lai brother ran over like a deer and took the letter.

  Wang Yi took a look.

   The red header file of the Education and Sports Bureau.

   "Notice of Haifu County Education and Sports Bureau on Carrying out Teacher Training Work - County Educators Progress Conference

   All communes and rural primary schools:

In order to improve the educational theory level and educational and teaching ability of private teachers, it is decided to conduct an educational theory and educational skills training for teachers who graduated from non-normal majors in the compulsory education stage of the county in 2 to 3 years. Each training period is 24 days. Open for winter and summer vacations. In order to earnestly implement this work, the following requirements are hereby made…”

  Wang Yi took a look. The location of the report was the auditorium of the County No. 1 Middle School, and the report time was all day on July 20.

At present, the national and local educational power is indeed weak. In short, there is no money. This training requires teachers to bring their own bedding and daily necessities. The school canteen is responsible for eating, but teachers need to bring their own food stamps, and they must pay the food stamps to eat .

  If you don’t have food stamps, you can bring food and exchange it at the rate of half a catty of flour and rice a day, or one and a half catties of dried corn and sweet potatoes a day.

  Tianya Elementary School is very solid here.

   All five teachers went to train...

  Wang Yi scratched her head, Qiu Weishui had to go to training anyway, she is the teacher of Yuhong Class, she just looks after the children.

   Then he thought, this may be what Ye Changan meant, he now wants Qiu Weishui to turn to education work.

   After he finished scanning the notice, he asked Brother Zhao and Brother Lai, "We won't be in class today, and we won't be able to manage our meals. Are you here..."

   "Let's buy something." Lai brother said crisply.

   Wang Yi smiled and said, "Oh, I see, are you going to visit relatives?"

   The little sisters told him before that their mother was going to wait for the summer vacation to take them to their grandma's house, and the little sisters were going to buy some snacks to get back the lost face.

  In this way, Wang Yi went to the store to get something for them: "Come on, today you guys eat crispy noodles. You don't need to soak it in water to eat this, but it's delicious. I'll give you two or three per person."

   "Bring the fruit powder with you too, come here, a mineral water bottle per person, go back and brew the fruit powder with cool white water."

   "Do you want spicy chips? Then you can just grab a pack, as well as candy cubes and shrimp chips. Do you have to ask for these too?"

  The little sisters were cruel.

   Before, they tried their best to get to know the monkey at night. One was reluctant to eat the whole thing to sell it for money, and after selling it, it was reluctant to spend it.

   So they are willing to buy things.

  Wang Yi lent them his backpack: "Don't pack it in a cloth bag, pack it with the teacher's back."

  Lai said, "Thank you, Teacher Wang, for your kindness and kindness to our family, we will never forget it!"

  Mr. Wang's backpack is a good thing. It's beautiful, big and can hold things. I heard that it was made by a foreign factory. The logo on it is written by foreigners.

   Zhaodi carried the mountaineering bag, just like carrying a bedding roll.

   When they returned home, Huang Xiaohua was wiping her hair, and there was a small wooden box next to it, which was filled with shampoo bought from the sales department.

   The third brother said, "Mother, this shampoo smells so good, fragrant and sweet. If only I could rinse it with water and drink it."

   After hearing the first half of the sentence, Huang Xiaohua was about to laugh, but when she heard the second half of the sentence, she became sad again.

   In the past, the conditions at home were too poor, and the children had a hard life.

   She wiped her head and said, "Brother, you all come here, you also have to wash your hair, you all use shampoo, and your hair is shiny black and fragrant."

   Brother Lai smiled and said, "Mother, are you willing to let us use it? Last time Dad dug out a piece of shampoo and made you scold him for a night."

Huang Xiaohua said: "When did mother refuse to let you use the things at home? The things at home are for you, but you can't use them blindly. What is your father doing? Washing your hair with shampoo before watching a movie? It doesn't burn. Light, I think he's trying to seduce wild women outside!"

   "Come on, put down your things and wash your hair one by one. Mother just went to the solar cooker to burn the water, you take turns to use it, save it."

  She told her daughters to wash their hair and went to wake up her son.

   Good baby said in a daze: "I won't go to school today, I won't get up."

  Huang Xiaoyan didn't say nonsense and directly turned him over to reveal his two black buttocks, and waved his calloused hand and pulled it up.

   The good baby screamed and got up.

  Huang Xiaohua began to pack her things. She not only used the solar cooker to burn water in the morning, but also steamed zongzi. She steamed 20 zongzi in one go, and used all the welfare rice that the production team gave to her family.

  Good baby said: "Mother, I want to eat zongzi."

   "You want to eat shit." Huang Xiaohua said unceremoniously, "If you don't eat it in the morning, go to your grandmother's house to eat hard at noon, and then there will be some good food and good dishes."

   She took the canned luncheon meat, canned fruit, malted milk, white sugar, brown sugar, dried noodles, and sesame oil that she had bought from the sales department, and took the kerosene bottle that she had saved at home.

Looking at most of the bottle of kerosene, she scolded depressedly: "The dog's grass used to save thousands of dollars, and he was reluctant to light a kerosene lamp to eat, but now he can't use it, sigh, before Teacher Wang didn't come, our family has never been there. What day is it?"

  Lai brother who was carrying water in the door said: "It was a tough day. By the end of the month, even the sorghum noodles will be gone, so I have to eat bran. Mother, I will never eat bran again, and my stomach is burning."

  Huang Xiaohua comforted her: "If you don't eat it, don't eat it. I will cook rice for you at the end of the month. Oh, by the way, I will bring some millet to your grandfather. Your grandfather has a bad stomach. Millet nourishes the stomach."

   "None of us are willing to eat." Good baby said unhappily.

  Huang Xiaohua glared at her son and said, "Do you eat millet porridge less in the morning at school? What millet porridge do you eat at noon?"

  Good baby sighed after hearing this: "I want to go to school, I want to study, and there is no good breakfast for summer vacation."

  Huang Xiaohua wanted to scold him for being useless.

   But thinking about this, she also panicked.

   Don't underestimate the meal at school, there are five children in her family, and the children can eat when they grow up, and the five children can eat the meals of the four adults in their family!

   On weekdays, the school manages the breakfast, but let the children eat it freely, and they are not too hungry at noon, so this saves a lot of food for the family.

   After the children washed their heads and faces, Huang Xiaohua smeared them some Friendship brand skin care cream that she was reluctant to use.

   After using it, it smells good, but as soon as you go out, the sun is shining and the island is wet, and my brother sighs: "Mother, let's not be stinky in the future. This face is as greasy and hot as lard."

   Huang Xiaohua scolded: "Don't talk nonsense, you can't get a seat on dog meat, and you won't be able to use good things."

   They went to the pier. The captain was helping Xiufang and Wang Zhenguang to repair the bottom of the boat with light labor, and the legs of their trousers were soaked.

   This annoyed her: "I finally made you wear three pieces of red, look at it, talk about it, alas..."

   "Isn't this something to do for the team?" The captain patted his trouser legs, "Isn't it going to work as soon as the sun shines on a hot day?"

   Xiufang smiled and said, "Ah, sister-in-law, are you going to visit relatives? I knew earlier that the captain would not be able to help. He came here shirtless, and I didn't know you were going to visit relatives."

  Huang Xiaohua hurriedly said: "The team's business is our own business, we have to do what we need to do. I feel sorry for these pants. You know my family's conditions. The new pants are just on the first day..."

   The captain shook the pipe stick impatiently: "It's alright, it's alright, I'll do it after a while, let's go, hurry up and celebrate your mother's birthday."

   In the past, if her man dared to talk back to her, she would have already started the **** mode, and she would never stop until noon if she didn't spray him.

   Now she has a better temper and a better life. After being married, she finally sees the hope of enjoying happiness over the years. This is equivalent to enjoying happiness with the Wang family, so she can no longer criticize her own men. After all, the men in the production team are all behind the Wang family.

  Her family was not from Changlong Commune, it was in Loess Commune, but it was also an outer island, so she had to row a boat around the main island of the county town and go to the southwest for some distance.

   It takes more than two hours to shake the oars.

   She used to be reluctant to go back to her parents' house. The journey was long and it was quite troublesome to go back.

   The most important thing is that I used to go back to my parents’ home to borrow food and money.

   A poor girl married far away is not as good as a dog!

   Her brother-in-law, sister-in-law and daughter-in-law would not treat their family well, and her father and mother still wanted to be raised by her brothers, so naturally they did not dare to treat her very well—

  The old couple were under the low eaves, had to bow their heads, and had to follow the wishes of their daughter-in-law.

But the situation has changed in the past two months. She didn't go to borrow food anymore. Instead, she once brought the good things like barbecued pork ribs and pork ribs to her mother's house as a gift in May. Her own waist was hard, and her parents' attitude towards her also changed All right.

   Brothers and daughters-in-law and sisters-in-law still look down on her family, but the meat and ribs are really fragrant, they are embarrassed to slap her face.

   This time she went back to her mother's house to celebrate her birthday. It was the most beautiful time in her history. Not only did she take a lot of things, she also prepared a red envelope for her.

   She knew that her parents were good to her. In the past, when she went to borrow food, her mother would secretly stuff her with a dollar or two. This money has helped her family to save the poor many times.

   There is no way, her family really has no money, only two laborers for nine mouths, how many work points can she earn this year? At the end of the year, as soon as the grain is settled, her family is a funnel every year!

   She was recalling the bitter days in the past when her son called out weakly, "Mother, I'm hungry."

  Brother Zhao took out a piece of crispy noodles from the bag and handed it to his younger brother: "Elder Fifth, eat this, Teacher Wang said this is the best."

   "Instant noodles!" Good baby quickly took a bite.

  Suddenly brittle scum fell down.

  Huang Xiaohua hurried to catch it and scolded: "Why are you so poor? You can't eat instant noodles? Why does this instant noodles look like rust?"

  Good baby picked up the instant noodles and looked at it, and hurriedly handed it to her mouth: "Mother, it's delicious, this is really delicious."

  Lai brother said lazily: "Mr. Wang can fool people? He said this is the best food."

  Good baby carefully opened the noodle cake, gave a little to each of the sisters, and gave a small piece to the captain, and shouted, "Dad, try this instant noodle, it's salty, but it's delicious."

The captain    smiled and said, "You eat, are you sprinkled with seasoning packets?"

  Brother Zhao took a bite and gave the rest to Huang Xiaohua: "Mother, this instant noodle is really delicious. There is no seasoning package. It's just like that. It's crispy and delicious."

  Huang Xiaohua ate the **** in her hand and said, "Well, it has a salty taste, you can eat it, I don't eat it."

   Zhao brother said: "Mother, eat it, Teacher Wang sold us more than ten yuan."

   "So much?" Huang Xiaohua was taken aback, "By the way, what's in Teacher Wang's bag? Why is it so bulging?"

   Brother Lai smiled proudly and said, "It's all delicious and delicious. Let's see how greedy David, Longlong and the others are when we go there."

   Captain murmured, "Don't do it then."

   Brother Lai sneered: "I train with the champion Wang every day at school, just to deal with them, and I'll make them look good when they fight!"

  Time passed, the sun was getting higher and higher, and the waves on the sea were hung with golden colors.

  The temperature is getting hot.

   The captain was covered in sweat, and his younger brother stood up and said, "Dad, let me shake it, you can rest, I have peach water here, you can drink two sips."

   Listening to his second daughter's filial words, he smiled and said, "No, Dad ate some noodles in the morning, and there is some energy."

  Good baby said: "Mother, I want to eat noodles too."

  Huang Xiaohua rolled up her sleeves and said, "You..."

   "I don't want it anymore, don't hit me." The good girl hurriedly hid in her eldest sister's arms.

  Huang Xiaohua glared at him: "It's useless, I'm going to shake the oars for your father. What I just wanted to say is that I'll give you some noodles to eat when you can shake the oars."

  The husband and wife took turns to replace each other, and finally arrived at Yao Huangdao in the Loess Commune before ten o'clock.

  Yao Huangdao has a large area and has a total of four production teams. The first was Yao Huang, and later the Yang and Sun surnames migrated.

  Because of the influence of the ocean monsoon for thousands of years, the Loess Commune located in the northwest of the main island and its affiliated outer islands have accumulated a lot of soil. Both the commune of the main island and the production team of the outer islands have good fields.

   Therefore, in normal times, they can live better than the production teams who simply rely on fishing for a living. At least they can be self-sufficient in food and can also provide public food to the country.

   But once they encounter droughts and floods, their farmland has no grains, and the days will be much worse than that of the production team like Tianya Island, which mainly raises boats and fishes.

  Huang Xiaohua married to Tianya Island because of a special three-year period. The weather on the outer islands was not good at that time, and the Huang family couldn’t survive. The 17-year-old Huang Xiaohua married to Tianya Island. At that time, she only wanted to eat and not starve.

  The problem is that her family is not good, and she is the descendant of capitalists. The good people on Tianya Island do not look down on her family, so she can only marry the captain. In addition, her parents also considered that the captain's family was good for generations of poor peasants.

  However, the poor peasant captain's life was also difficult at home. This hard-working woman really jumped from one pit to another. At that time, it was not easy for their family to support their own family of four, so they did not dare to have children for several years.

   When I was about to have a baby, the girl came with fire and lightning all the way...

  The boat was docked at the pier. Someone was sorting fishing nets at the pier. When they saw her, they smiled and said, "Xiaohua has come back to her mother's house? Men and children are leading it. This is a big family here, a big family?"

   Huang Xiaohua used to come back to borrow food and was most afraid of meeting acquaintances, and even more afraid of people telling jokes when she met.

  Because she didn't know if it was a joke or cynicism.

   Now she's not afraid anymore, it's just a joke, because she has the confidence.

   So she smiled and said, "Well, come back and eat my parents. My parents are getting old. I'm afraid I won't be able to eat a few more meals if I stop eating."

  The captain took out a bag of Hongtashan and handed it to the man: "Second brother is cleaning up the net?"

  The man took a cigarette and smeared it under his nose, his expression surprised: "Well, the weather is fine today, and I have been drying the net. Your royal family has really entered the stage of preliminary developed socialism now, ah, smoking Hongta Mountain?"

The captain    smiled and said, "Mr. Wang, a friend of our team, gave it to the support production team, and our men's family shared a box. I didn't want to take it. I don't want to use it on the scene."

   His calm laughter made the second brother dare not speculate for a while: he said he was not willing to smoke, but the way he didn't blink when he handed the cigarette didn't seem like he was reluctant to smoke it on weekdays.

  Huang Xiaohua greeted him again, and led the children off the boat, each with large and small bags in their hands.

   She looked up at her hometown. The changes in her hometown were no more than that of Tianya Island. The island also had mountains. The fishermen's houses were built on top of the mountains.

  Because of the lack of water, the outer islands grow wheat and corn even if they grow food. Now the wheat has been harvested and the corn has not yet grown, so the farmland is green.

  There are more or less farmland on the mountain, like Tianya Island, where the villagers plant vegetables, which together with the grass and trees form patches of green.

Along the mountain, the vegetables are light green, the weeds are dark green, and the large leaves are dark green. Many green patches are connected, and they form a line when viewed horizontally and a surface when viewed from a distance. In the bright summer sun in the morning, the farmland is illuminated. The yellow in the interior and the green in the mountains intertwine into a watercolor.

   "It turns out that my hometown is quite beautiful," she sighed at her husband, "then why didn't you discover it before?"

   The captain took a cigarette and said, "I used to be poor when I couldn't eat, how could I have the time to take care of beauty?"

  Huang Xiaohua’s ancestors lived widely, from Shanghai to the frontier to do business, and went to the northwest of Inner Mongolia.

   Before liberation, half of the farmland and all the brick houses on the island belonged to her family. Later, there were only a few houses left, but they were brick houses anyway, so it was brighter to live in.

   The couple led the child into the door, and the old lady who was choosing dishes in the main hall smiled when she saw her daughter coming back: "You three sisters are far away from your house, so you came early."

   Huang Xiaohua's sister-in-law, Su Cuihua, was about to answer the call, but she was stunned when she saw the five children's clothes, so Huang Xiaohua grabbed the words and said, "The poor pay attention, the poor pay attention, the poorer the more pay."

   This is over.

  Su Cuihua had nothing to say, but said, "Come here early, we just happened to have an early birthday banquet. We didn't eat in the morning, right? Let's have dinner early at noon."

  The good baby was shocked and was about to ask his little aunt how did you know, when he opened his mouth, the second sister had already put a piece of toffee into his mouth.

   Zhao brother peeled off the toffee and sent it to grandma: "Grandma, eat candy, it's sweet and fragrant."

  Su Cuihua looked up, Huang Xiaohua said, "Where's your aunt's?"

  Brother Zhao took out two more pieces of white rabbit toffee from his pocket, Su Cuihua smiled and said, "Aunt is not greedy, don't."

"Okay." The younger brother went up and put the sugar in his sister's hand back into his pocket as if nothing had happened. "Where is my grandfather? My mother brought a bag of millet to my grandfather. She said that my grandfather had a stomachache, so I would eat a bowl of millet porridge in the morning and evening. Nourishes your stomach."

  Huang Xiaohua took out a large bag of millet.

  Ten pounds.

  Su Cuihua scratched his forehead subconsciously.

  The old lady smiled happily: "So many millets? You, where did you buy this? Where can you get food stamps?"

  Huang Xiaohua said: "The team bought it. Teacher Wang from our school tried to get food stamps from his college classmates to support our team. Mother, where's my father?"

  The food issue branch secretary told her not to say more, so she changed the subject.

The old lady said, "Let's take the child and your eldest brother and second brother back to carry the food. Didn't there have been rumors a few days ago that there was going to be an earthquake at sea? It was said that a tsunami would be set off, and then the members carried the food to the top of the mountain. "

   "Yesterday, the secretary went to the county to hold a meeting. He came back and said that it was all rumors. Even the thieves and enemy agents who spread the rumors have been arrested. The government is preparing for a public trial."

  Huang Xiaohua said: "It's just a rumor."

   "How do you understand?" Su Cuihua asked without looking up.

  Huang Xiaohua said: "Mr. Wang from our school said that he is a college student who came back from the capital. Of course he understands this."

   "He knows a lot about things. On the day of the typhoon, the lighthouse on Dapeng Island in our commune had an accident. All the militia teams were dispatched. In the stormy weather, the lighthouse was pulled from three sides with ropes to prevent it from being blown down. It was a serious crime."

"At that time, the architecture professors and postgraduate teachers from the provincial capital didn't know what to do. Mr. Wang came up with an idea and installed something called a damper for the lighthouse, which stabilized the lighthouse at once, and then all the militiamen did not use it. Suffering and tired, they stayed in the room and listened to our teacher Wang’s storytelling, and went home after a comfortable day.”

  The old lady nodded and said, "I also heard this. Last time, the secretary said it, right?"

  Su Cuihua stopped talking and bowed his head to choose a dish.

  Huang Xiaohua continued to pack things out, when footsteps came from outside the gate, and two women walked in.

   These are her eldest sister-in-law Pan Yinmei and second sister-in-law Pan Taohua. The two of them are members of the same production team, so they are better on weekdays.

  The two women came in and were shocked to see the five children's clothes. Pan Taohua subconsciously asked, "Where is this, recruiting brother? You, hey, where did you get your clothes?"

  Good baby said positively: "The school gave out, as well as sandals, and this belt, all of which were issued by the school."

  Pan Taohua asked Huang Xiaohua in disbelief: "The fifth, is it true? What the **** is your school doing? What about the clothes that were given to the students in the front? Why did you send these clothes again?"

  Huang Xiaohua said: "It's all school uniforms. The one in front is the spring and autumn school uniform, this one is the summer school uniform, and in the winter, there will be cotton school uniforms."

   Pan Yinmei couldn't help but ask: "It's all paid? Don't want money? Don't your parents pay?"

  Huang Xiaohua said: "I don't want a penny..."

   The slapstick sounded, and three boys and two girls came in. They stopped when they saw the green short-sleeved shorts and skirts of the five children in the courtyard.

   Soon the youngest boy shouted: "Mom, Mom, I want this kind of clothes too, it's so pretty!"

   Pan Taohua said impatiently: "Go play by yourself, see what you want, why don't you understand anything?"

  Huang Xiaohua continued to pack her things:

"Mother, I brought some kerosene for you and dad. Now our team is powered on, and we all use electric lights. The kerosene is no longer needed. You and my dad can use it. Get it for you."

   "I brought you a bar of soap and a box of shampoo. I use this to wash my body and hair when it's hot. It's easy to use."

   "You love canned food, so I brought you a few bottles of canned fruit. David, Longlong, and Kiki, you all come to eat canned food. Aunt will open a bottle for you? Come and eat with your grandma."

  Huang Xiaohua picked up a can of yellow peach to open, Pan Taohua went up and pressed it and said, "It's about time to eat, what are you doing with canned food now? Save your stomach to eat."

   A few children gathered around and were about to feast on it, but the yellow peach cubes and sugar water they got flew away, and they stomped their feet and shook their arms in anger.

   Zhao brother looked at the second sister.

  Lai brother imitated Teacher Wang with a crooked smile, and then gave his brother a wink.

  Good baby got the signal and said quickly: "Second sister, I'm hungry, when can I eat?"

  Lai brother said coldly: "If you can't sleep in the morning, can you not be hungry if you don't eat breakfast? Well, I'll give you instant noodles, and then you have a sausage, and pad your stomach first."

   "Are you two hungry, the third and the fourth? Let's have a cushion too."

   She took out the instant noodle cake and distributed it to her two younger sisters, and then peeled off a toffee and stuffed it into her mouth.

   Soft and fragrant!

   Eat tsk tsk sound.

   The children of the other three families suddenly straightened their eyes.

   The three daughters-in-law's eyes widened with anger.

  Children don’t understand Lai’s thoughts, can they understand? Today these **** are obviously coming to bully the children at home!

   But the children are very greedy when they have a hard life, and they gathered around to beg for it:

   "Second sister, why do you have instant noodles? There are only instant noodles in the city. Our relatives in Jinhaicheng brought them to him. Give me a piece."

   "Brother Zhao, give me a piece of instant noodles, I'll just eat a little."

   "Good baby, you can't eat such a big piece of instant noodles, I..."

   "I've eaten it!" The good baby grabbed the instant noodles with one hand and pulled up the clothes and ate the noodles, while the youngest boy went up to pick up the noodles from his clothes to eat.

   Seeing this, Su Cuihua was about to explode with anger and stood up at once.

   Haowa squinted and opened the instant noodle cake in his hand and said, "Come on, Longlong, you eat the second sister, the second sister will share the instant noodles for you, eldest brother and sister Qiqi, I will also share it with you."

   She graciously broke apart the dough, but the dough was too small and divided even smaller, and one person could only get the size of a baby's palm.

   But this is already very good, Su Cuihua can't get angry and sit down angrily.

   Pan Yinmei, the most thoughtful, looked gloomy. Although her younger son got the noodles, she was not happy.

   She was the only one who had guessed what these two girls were thinking: She was not at all generous in sharing food for relatives and children, she was trying to provoke the greed of relatives and children!

   The texture and taste of the crispy noodles are top-notch. What is a piece the size of a baby's palm good for?

   Sure enough, the children became more noisy after eating!

   To make matters worse, brother Lai took out a bottle of yellow water from his bag and gave the baby a drink, and said softly, "Come on, the fifth one, take a sip of soda."

  The good baby looked at the second sister moved: Second sister, you are so kind to me today, I dare not drink it, have you put mouse medicine in the soda?

   When the children heard that there was soda, they were completely anxious when they saw the soda, and they ran back to their mother and started making trouble.

   Huang Xiaohua can't stand it anymore.

   is a relative after all!

   She used to come back to borrow food and was scorned, but her parents still lent her the food, and her parents had nothing to say to her, so she couldn't let the children do too much, otherwise, wouldn't it be the parents who suffered?

   So she said with a sullen face: "Er Ya, don't joke with your brothers and sisters, and share with them what delicious food you got."

   Come on, brother, is this still good? I grabbed my younger brother, squeezed his neck and poured soda into it, and then slammed soda into his own mouth.

   Pan Yinmei said quickly when she heard Huang Xiaohua's words: "David, thank you auntie soon."

  The children thanked and ran to share the snacks.

  Lai brother picked up his bag and ran: "Come and chase me, I'll give him something to eat if he catches up with me!"

   The captain couldn't help laughing and crying, and said, "This child, why are you so mischievous?"

   Huang Xiaohua took advantage of the attention of the three brothers and daughters-in-law to be attracted by the children, and secretly stuffed the money from the red paper bag to her mother.

  The old lady was surprised when she squeezed the paper bag.

   In terms of width, it is a great unity, a lot!

  Huang Xiaohua gave her a wink and packed up everything, saying, "Mother, cut a plate of luncheon meat at noon today. This luncheon meat is full of meat, it's delicious."

   The old lady was also happy when she saw that her daughter was having a better life, and said with a smile, "Okay, okay, you can go and cut it, there are quite a few good dishes at noon today."

   Someone came in behind, and the other two daughters also came with their family.

   The small courtyard is completely lively.

  Huang Xiaohua brought spiced peanuts, spiced melon seeds and candies, mixed them together and took them out to eat.

  In the end, her father, two older brothers and one younger brother came back with a nephew who dropped out of school, so that the family was more lively and lively.

   A few men had nowhere to talk, so they had to squat in the shade of the tree at the door to smoke and chat.

   They were talking and laughing and suddenly stood up one after another. The captain asked strangely, "Why, ah—Huihui, Huihui, what's wrong with you?"

   A young girl came from outside. The girl was tall and pretty, but her hair was so short that it was shaved close to her scalp.

  Huang Xiaohua hurried up to meet the girl and asked in surprise, "Huihui, what's wrong with you? Why did you cut the big braids?"

   Her elder brother Huang Dazhuang gave her a wink with a cough.

  Huihui said in a low voice, "Sister Xiaohua, my family is in a hurry to spend money. I cut my braids and sold them. What, today is my aunt's birthday, isn't it?

  The old lady stood up and said, "Huihui, my family is not afraid of this and doesn't pay too much attention to this. Come in, come in and talk, it's alright."

She went to pull Huihui into the house, and Huang Dazhuang said to Huang Xiaohua in a low voice, "A few days ago, there was a typhoon, alas, the boat of Huihui's family was not **** and was swayed at sea by the typhoon. Her father and her brother were afraid of the boat. If it is damaged, I am afraid of crashing other people's boats, so I have to go and tie up the boat in the strong wind!"

   "In the end, the two men were stronger. They knew it was dangerous, so they didn't feel embarrassed to call the rest of the team, so they went on their own."

   "This is good, alas, there was a strong wind, and the boat was blown over and overturned, and all of a sudden, the old man was slapped down on the boat of Sanyan's family next to him!"

"Mummy, Huihui hurriedly called someone, but waited for someone to pass - oh, her father pushed her brother, his rib pierced his lungs, and it took a few days to endure it and he just died yesterday. Her brother is alright. , but it's quite serious, it seems that a leg is badly injured, anyway, it's still being treated in the county hospital these days."

  Huang Xiaohua sighed and said, "Then I'll go inside and see what she's doing here today. I look at her as if she's looking for me."

   "I know your family is rich now, so I asked you to borrow money." Pan Taohua said lightly.

The captain    heard this and said to several people: "Hey, what kind of money do we have at home? It's just that the production team divided it three times and saved a little."

He said to his daughter-in-law again, "Well, that flower, go ahead and ask what's going on. In the past, our family came to borrow food and Huihui's family helped out, but now when they are in trouble, we can help if we can. You have all the money at home, and you have to help if you can.”

   "I know." Huang Xiaohua hurried into the house.

   Pan Yinmei gave the two sisters a wink, and they followed into the room to listen.

  Huihui wiped her tears in the bedroom, and Huang Xiaohua couldn't help but feel uncomfortable when she looked at her stubble hair:

  The big braids that hang down to the waist originally are black and shiny, what a beautiful girl with beautiful braids, how can it be like this now?

   Seeing her enter the door, Huihui choked and said, "Sister Hua, I shouldn't have come when my aunt is celebrating her birthday, but I have to go to the county hospital at noon..."

"It's okay, you don't need to say that, child," the old lady sighed, "your father helped my family a lot when we were in trouble. In the past, when Huaer came to borrow food, your father tried very hard, but if you want to borrow money, you should ask your aunt. What are you looking for flowers for?"

  Huihui said: "Auntie, I'm not borrowing money, I want to ask Sister Hua to help me ask the carpenter in their team, my father has to pay, what else is there, and suddenly there is no life material prepared at home."

   "Now the time for making longevity materials is tight and our commune is too expensive. Our family really has no money. I inquired that there is an old carpenter named Wang Xianggao in the team of Sister Hua and his team.

   "Do you want Uncle Gao to give your father a sip of longevity material? Okay, I'll go back and do this for you after lunch. I'll do it for you as soon as possible." Huang Xiaohua interrupted her.

   Huihui wiped her tears and said, "Thank you, Sister Hua, I really can't help it. If you go back after dinner, then I'll be with you. My father can't wait."

   "Don't you want to go to the county hospital?" Huang Xiaohua looked at the poor girl and asked.

  Huihui shook her head in despair and said, "My uncle is in the hospital, my brother should stand up beforehand, it's all up to him..."

   "What's the situation with the army now?" Huang Xiaohua asked.

Huihui said blankly: "A calf was smashed, it wasn't serious, but we sent it late on a typhoon day. The big doctor in the county said that the blood supply will be insufficient for a long time, and it will cause necrosis, so a complicated operation must be done quickly or else. Only amputation."

   "The money for the examination is all I got from cutting the braids. How can I get the money for the surgery? I can't get it all together!"

  Huang Xiaohua glanced at the stubble above her head again and said, "How much does the operation cost for that complicated operation?"

   Huihui said lightly, "Thousands and eight hundred can't hold back."

  Huang Xiaohua and the old lady said in unison, "So many?"

   Huang Xiaohua twisted her hands in embarrassment and said, "Wait, wait, I'll go ask my man, and ask the child's father something."

   She raised her foot and stepped over the threshold to go out, pulling the captain aside and muttering a few times.

  The captain also exclaimed 'so much' first.

   Then he took out a cigarette and took two hard puffs, looking at his daughter-in-law: "What do you mean?"

Huang Xiaohua said: "When we were poor, outsiders looked down on us except for the people in our team, so Uncle Mao's family borrowed food for us. I know Huihui and Xiaojun, honest boy, after giving emergency care to his family, the money will be sure. Can't stand it..."

   "Then borrow it." The captain understood what his daughter-in-law meant and sighed, "Now that there are communes, teams and enterprises with the help of Mr. Wang, the money comes quickly, and life will be better in the future. This money is hidden at home, so borrow it."

  Huang Xiaohua hurried back.

   took Huihui's hand and said, "The army is only 18, 19? Is it 19? I'm only 19. If I become lame, what will I do with the rest of my life? How do you work and how do you say your wife?"

  Huihui was heartbroken when she heard this, and she burst into tears: "It's all fate, Sister Hua, I tell you, it's all fate!"

  Huang Xiaohua said: "Don't feel bad, go back and talk to the doctor about the major surgery. It doesn't matter if you spend money. My brother-in-law and I are the team that is doing well. We will help you in the team."

   "I have to perform an operation on the army. What a good young man. Let's have an operation. Don't amputate your limbs, don't amputate your limbs..."

   She herself was trembling.

  The family has some savings this year. It is the money that Teacher Wang gave back and forth. The total is more than 800 yuan. After adding the three dividends in the team and deducting expenses, there are now 900 yuan.

   This is the lifeblood of the family, and this loan has to be fully borrowed.

feeling terrible!

  The old lady also held Huihui's wrist and said, "Yes, think of a way to borrow some money and pool it together. What do you think our fisherman can do without a calf? He will be disabled!"

  Huihui cried aloud after listening to the two of them, but she was still desperate: "How can I borrow so much money?"

  Huang Xiaohua said: "I still have twenty dollars in my pocket now. You can take it first. I'll borrow money at home or when I get home. Our team can borrow money. It's okay, we can borrow money."

  The old lady said: "Take mine too, there are dozens of dollars, emergency is important!"

   Pan Taohua, who was outside the door, was blunt and asked, "Mother, how much money do you have in your hands?"

  The old lady said: "We are out of money. Isn't this Hua'er coming over today to give me a happy red envelope for my birthday? Give this money to Huihui first and the army first..."

   She took out the happy red envelope from her pocket.

   Take it apart and the inside is a big reunion folded in half.

   Counting is fifty dollars!

The old lady handed it to Huihui and said, "Take it, take this money, plus the 20 yuan for the flowers, the total is 70 yuan, you should go to the hospital to pay the money first, and let the flowers be borrowed for you later. , your uncle and I also borrowed and borrowed."

   "Thousand-eight hundred is a lot, but we can always get it together if we work hard, but we can't let the army lose a leg!"

   The three daughters-in-law outside the door stared.

  Hey red envelope stuffed with fifty yuan? Where is this money coming from!

   They suspect where the Wang family production team is picking up money!
