Chapter 30: The Son of a Gangster
There were so many people on the train, eight of us crammed into five seats, and the aisles were full of people. This time it completely encircled me and the bastard, and there was nowhere to play if I wanted to, so I had to stay where I was. Bored lying on the adults and napping.
As soon as my mother got in the car, she kept looking out the window, and she must have been missing her grandparents again. It took a long time to turn around and come back to reality from the contemplation.
Sister Xiaoru has been holding her sister since she got in the car, always with a smile on her face, teasing her sister from time to time, and her sister who loves to laugh always giggles every once in a while.
Opposite my mother sat a couple of about the same age as their parents, the man wore a pair of myopic glasses, the woman was gentle and elegant, and at first glance she was also dressed as an intellectual woman, and there was a girl who was slightly older than her sister next to them, and the girl had two pigtails and a blonde doll in her arms, which was later known as the world-famous 'Barbie'.
She looked at us timidly, and from time to time she and her sister looked at each other, who was more concerned about the beautiful doll in her hand.
The girl's parents soon noticed her sister's longing eyes, and the girl's mother bowed her head and said something to the girl, and then saw the girl raise the doll in her hand high and hand it to her sister in Sister Xiaoru's arms. He said, "I'll play with you for a while." ”
The younger sister looked at her mother, and the mother smiled and said, "Dandan, you can say, 'Thank you, sister, I'll play for a while and then give it back to you'." ”
The younger sister was extremely obedient and told the little girl what her mother had taught her word for word, and then she reached out and took the doll and played with great care.
The father took the initiative to talk to the girl's father, the father did not know much, and what he said was not as good as the other party, most of them were listened to by the father, and the other party talked endlessly.
After chatting, I learned that the other party's family of three also wanted to get off in Zhengzhou, and the mother took out several kinds of mountain fruits for the girls to eat, and the girl took it after her mother's permission, and politely said thank you, Auntie, at a glance, she knew that she was a well-bred child who grew up in the city.
After the train passed Changsha, Hunan Province, it was already the next morning, and there were many people getting off the train, so the carriage was much more spacious at this time.
Breakfast is the kind served by the train, Uncle and Aunt Yan sit in two seats, I squeezed between the two of them and lay on the small table to devour the breakfast, after I ate, Aunt Yan made a 'hamburger' for the uncle, and it also contained the bacon brought by my grandmother's family, which was cooked in advance and brought on the car.
The younger sister ate a loaf of bread from the girl opposite, and the girl opposite ate her grandmother's bacon.
I held a piece of bacon in my hand and waited for the bastard to finish breakfast. Finally there was a place for us to show our strengths, and we were hiding in the carriage.
It didn't take long for me to stop me from playing, because it was too dirty under the seats, and we were already covered with 'scars'.
The happiest thing along the way is not me and the bastard, it is Sister Xiaoru, I remember that she almost never slept all the way, she didn't sleep when others slept, and when others didn't sleep, she chatted with this from time to time, talked to that, and then teased us, full of spirits, without a sense of exhaustion.
I remember very well that although we didn't have much rest on the train, we slept a lot on and off, and we were still listless and wilting when we got off the train.
Only Uncle and Sister Xiaoru, especially Sister Xiaoru, who didn't close her eyes during the night, was still in good spirits, without the slightest tiredness on her face, and walked off the train majestically and high-spiritedly, carrying Aunt Yan's and her backpack on her back, her own travel bag in her left hand, and her father's canvas bag in her right hand, striding out of Zhengzhou Railway Station, like a high-spirited steel soldier who is about to go to the battlefield.
The uncle couldn't see the tiredness on his face, and with the support of Aunt Yan, his pace was not chaotic, and he walked steadily to the exit of the station.
After leaving the station, the parents waved goodbye to the family of three.
My father didn't plan to trouble my lame aunt anymore, so I hurriedly went to buy a ticket back to my hometown, and there were three hours before I got on the bus, and a group of eight people found a Henan braised noodle restaurant, asked for seven big bowls, and really ate it.
We didn't have enough food for two days, and we even ate the soup and water cleanly. Aunt Yan ate half a bowl, and Uncle slowly finished eating a big bowl.
Sister Xiaoru is not only able to work, this time she not only finished eating her own bowl, but also wiped out half of Yan Gu's bowl plus half a small bowl of chili peppers in the store.
Her father asked her if she had enough, not enough to have another bowl, she said that it was just right, and she couldn't eat it again, and her mother laughed at her while feeding her sister: "You can eat a capable girl." ”
The rest of the short journey was soon over, and it was almost time for dinner when the six of us returned to Grandma's house in a bit of a mess.
Only Sister Xiaoru is still in good spirits like no one, and Uncle Xiao is not much different from usual, and she can't see that she has just returned from a long trip.
Grandpa looked at our tired expressions one by one, and said with a smile: "Finally, we are all back, I know that you can come back today, but I don't know when I will get home, I have already prepared your meal, and the old woman can serve the food." ”
Grandma looked at the remnants of the defeated group of soldiers and said happily: "It's ready at noon, it's always in the pot, I'll fry a few more dishes." ”
After speaking, he looked at the uncle and entered the stove room.
Sister Xiaoru said, "Grandma, I'll help you." And he walked in. Sister Xiaoru called grandma according to my name.
The mother also followed in, and while asking for help, she introduced Sister Xiaoru to her grandmother.
Grandma said to Sister Xiaoru: "You are a guest, the eldest daughter-in-law has been tired for a few days, you all rest, I will come by myself." ”
While eating, Sister Xiaoru took out a small bag of chili peppers from her travel bag, took out a few and began to chew.
I was eating steamed buns, and when I saw it, I ran over and took two, and chewed it like her, and the grandmother who was bluffing quickly said: "The first day of the new year, eat slowly, spicy." ”
When my mother saw it, she smiled and said, "Mom, it's okay, I can eat spicy food on the first day of junior high school." ”
The mother said to Sister Xiaoru again, "I'll make you chili sauce tomorrow." ”
Sister Xiaoru said in Hunan dialect: "I want it." ”
After eating, Mrs. Zhang said, "It's just right, my West House is empty, let Miss Xiaoru go to live, just move a set of bedding." ”
Aunt Yan took a brand-new set of bedding that she didn't use when she married her uncle to Grandpa Zhang's Westhouse, and her mother helped clean it up, which was a temporary home for Sister Xiaoru.
In just half a month after we left home, a small incident happened in the village.
Katsuko came out again after eating enough in prison for the third time, this time for a year and a half, and the crime was still fighting, and now he is not mixed with the 'Short Black', and the eldest brother is not lacking.
He is also the only one in the village who dismisses his uncle,
Before he went in, he once said to the people in the village: "Xiao Si can help people guide people by writing? Isn't that a fantasy? My eldest brother 'Short Black' was blindfolded at that time, and I don't know which tendon is out of place." Now you ask the junior if he went to school, what does the teacher look like, can you hear the crickets chirping?"
Every time I pass by the entrance of the village and see someone surrounding my uncle, I will take my little brother to stand behind with a big grin and say loudly: "What do you see?"
No one paid attention to him, so he continued: "You are a bunch of two or five eyes, you can't see it, you can't see it, and you still see him pretending to be a great immortal, and you all still believe that a blind, deaf and dumb person can help you, and can show you a bright way?"
Still no one paid attention to him, and no one looked at him, he was still not annoyed or angry, and he smiled dryly: "You are ignorant and ignorant, this is feudal superstition." If you want to say that Xiao Si has worshiped a teacher and learned art, I can also believe him a little, after all, the things of the ancestors still have a way. Just like him, I don't believe it!"
When the people answered him again with ignorance, he got a little angry, raised his voice and said, "I'm talking and farting? ”
Most people were reluctant to provoke this second-rate son who didn't understand anything, so they chose to leave.
If you catch up with Grandpa Zhang, you won't be able to listen to his remarks.
The old man who doesn't speak easily will scold a few words: "Si'er provoked you and provoked you, are you slandering him here?" Thirty people still don't do their jobs all day long, and they haven't raised children yet, so they want to learn to teach people?"
As soon as Shengzi saw the old man talking, he had no skin and no face and softly shot back at the old man: "Old man, you can also take care of yourself, hurry up and find someone to throw a pot for you." It alludes to the fact that Grandpa Zhang has no children and no daughters, and after he dies, he has no son to give him a pot or a funeral.
The old man had already seen this matter, and he was not angry, and said, "Then you have to break the pot?" I'm afraid you have to ask your father to pay you four yuan and five." ”
At that time, it was rumored that when the prisoner was shot, the prisoner's family had to pay four yuan and five bullet fees, and the old man also secretly scolded Katsuko for eating guns.
With a word, Katsuko choked there, and walked away with people in a menacing manner, and he didn't know who to take out his anger.
