thirty-nine

At the age of nine, he already knew more or less the difficulties of life. Whenever I watched my mother share food with a big belly, I thought to the court, my mother should eat more, and my mother still has a little hair in her belly. Mom and grandmother both praised the Yuan Dynasty for being sensible, and the Yuan Dynasty became more and more "sensible", and no longer went to school well, but learned to sing flower drums with a little girl named Panpan in Fengyang, begging for food along the street, and on this day he also won the victory of his sister who had just entered the first grade.

Shengli asked Yuanchao: "Brother, is it fun to sing flower drums?"

Yuan Chao said: "It's fun, you can sing well, and you can help your mother earn money!"

"Who taught us?"

"There is a sister named Panpan Fengyang who can teach us, but she is easy to learn, I asked her to learn yesterday!"

The first big hero in the eyes of victory was his brother's aid to the DPRK, so he left with his brother.

Flower drum is indeed easy to learn and sing, after a while, the victory learned a lot of tunes, what "said Fengyang, Dao Fengyang, Fengyang is a good place, since the Zhu Emperor, ten years of nine years of famine...... "what" to play the flower drum, sing new songs, praise the leader Chairman Mao...... "what" called uncle, called aunt, a day without eating hungry panic. Do well, accumulate virtue, and be happy to do good without suffering......"

The aid to the DPRK praised it: "Victory, sing well, sing like this." ”

Victory was very excited, like a cheerful little rabbit, singing and dancing beside his brother and that Fengyang sister.

............

Unfortunately, there are not many people who are willing to do good, and they don't get much to eat.

Liu Shengli was deflated and said, "Brother, singing the flower drum is not fun at all, I'm hungry." ”

Sister Panpan of Fengyang took out a piece of black vegetable nest and said, "You eat, you eat." ”

Liu Shengli glanced at it and said, "It's dirty, so I won't eat it." ”

Liu Yuanchao said: "You are still not hungry. ”

On this day, Tang Ping rushed from the provincial capital to Jian'an Mine to take office, and encountered this scene in the county seat.

Panpan was very clever, and when he saw Tang Ping coming from afar, he said: "Sing quickly, sing quickly, that person is strange-faced......"

Liu Yuanchao picked up the flower drum and asked, "What are you singing?"

Pan Pan said: "Sing the praises of the leader Chairman Mao." ”

Liu Yuanchao immediately beat the flower drum and sang at Tang Ping:

Playing flower drums, singing new songs, and singing praises to the leader Chairman Mao.

General route, ***, People's Commune Xintiandi......

Tang Ping noticed the tattered schoolbags that Liu Yuanchao and Liu Shengli were carrying and the torn clothes that were made of miners' work clothes, hesitated for a moment, stopped in front of Liu Yuanchao, and asked: "It seems that you are all the children of workers in Jian'an Mine, right? Why don't you go to school?"

Liu Yuanchao immediately lied, and tears filled his eyes: "Uncle, I'm ...... My father died in the well, and the family was too large to eat, so I ...... My sister and I had to go to the street to beg for food and help my mother......"

Tang Ping was stunned, took out two cracked steamed buns in his satchel that he was reluctant to eat for a day, handed them to Liu Yuanchao, and asked, "Little friend, what's your name?"

Liu Yuanchao still wanted to lie, but Liu Shengli preemptively said: "His name is Yuanchao, her name is Panpan, and my name is Shengli." ”

Tang Ping thought for a while, and put a few yuan in Liu Shengli's hand: "Shengli children, take it, you all go to school, don't sing here anymore, do you hear......?

Aid to Korea and victory responded one after another, and the stall was closed.

That's how the catastrophe came in. At that time, neither brother nor sister thought that this uncle who was doing good would be the new party secretary of Jian'an Mine, and the new party secretary would faint at the bus stop in the county seat because of them, and was picked up by Liu Cunyi in the only jeep on the mine.

Sitting in the jeep back to Jian'an Mine, Liu Cunyi complained to Tang Ping, whose face was swollen, and said: "Secretary Tang, I really didn't expect that we would meet like this! Secretary Qian was swollen and collapsed last month, and you have not yet arrived at your post, but you actually fell in the county seat! Is it worth it for the three little ones called Huazi?"

Tang Ping said: "Mine Chief Liu, they are not ordinary little people called Huazi, these are the children of the workers of our Jian'an Mine! Their father died in our mine, and I feel uncomfortable watching them sing flower drums on the street and beg for food!" On both sides of the road, rows of dead trees that have been stripped of their bark flashed, Tang Ping noticed it, and said, "Mine Chief Liu, the situation is very serious, you see, even the bark has been stripped off." ”

Liu Cunyi sighed and said: "The surrounding countryside is more miserable than the mine, and there are many unnatural deaths, and there have been no unnatural deaths in our Jian'an Coal Mine." ”

Tang Ping said: "We can't take it lightly, I am afraid that this difficult situation will not be fundamentally solved in the short term. On the premise of doing a good job in coal production, we must actively carry out production to save ourselves, open up the wasteland around the mines, and grow melons and vegetables. ”

Liu Cunyi said: "Okay, let's organize a sideline brigade, I'll take care of it myself." ”

Tang Ping waved his hand: "No, no, I'll catch the side hustle brigade, you still have to concentrate on production!"

Liu Cunyi said: "That's fine. ”

Tang Ping remembered the three little Huazi again: "Oh, Mine Chief Liu, you can help me find out, which child of the dead miner is Aiding Korea, Shengli and Panpan? We can't ignore the families of miners who died in the line of duty!"

Liu Cunyi was stunned for a moment: "Aid to the DPRK and victory?"

Tang Ping realized something: "What? Do you know them?"

Liu Cunyi snorted, but didn't say anything: "Secretary Tang, I'll tell you when I figure it out." ”

The situation was clarified in the evening of the same day, and the three children were caught red-handed by Liu Cunyi when they were sharing the spoils at home. There are a total of five yuan and eight cents, and the Fengyang girl Panpan divided two yuan, and aided the dynasty and victory and won nine yuan per person. In addition to giving victory a dime to buy peanuts, the remaining three yuan and seven cents were ready to be handed over to his mother Sun Chenghui to make Sun Chenghui happy.

Liu Cunyi didn't appreciate the "selflessness" of aiding the DPRK at all, slapped the table, pointed at Liu Yuanchao's forehead and scolded: "You bastard, you are getting bolder and bolder! I don't go to school, I skip school with my sister, and I dare to cheat Secretary Tang's money!" While scolding, he drew his belt, "Lao Tzu must give you a good long memory today!"

Zou Zhaodi heard Liu Cunyi's roar, and hurriedly came over to protect: "Cunyi, if you have something to say." ”

Liu Cunyi shouted even more fiercely: "Mom, don't you care! Do you know that for their gang of bad things, Secretary Tang is hungry and fainting in the county seat!" Then, he shouted at Liu Yuanchao, "Take off your pants and lie down on the chair yourself!"

Liu Yuanchao took off his pants, leaned on the chair and said, "Dad, I'm ...... We didn't know it was Secretary Tang......"

Liu Cunyi went up with a belt: "Can someone else deceive you? When did Lao Tzu die in the well?ah?!"

Liu Yuanchao honestly lay on the chair and was pumped without making a sound.

Liu Cunyi pumped fiercely: "You told me, have you changed it?"

Liu Yuanchao gritted his teeth and remained silent.

Liu Cunyi pumped harder.

At this moment, Sun Chenghui, who went to the provincial capital to escort grain, walked into the door with Yuejin.

Liu Yuanchao didn't want to be beaten, so he lifted his pants and rushed to his mother, and handed Sun Chenghui the more than three yuan that was sweating in his hand: "Mom, here you go, this is the money I earned for you!"

Liu Cunyi was furious: "This is not what you earned, this money must be returned to Secretary Tang!"

Liu Yuanchao said stubbornly: "I have been beaten, and this money is mine!"

Liu Cunyi said fiercely: "Then you don't suffer enough!" said that, and came over to drag Liu Yuanchao again.

Sun Chenghui stopped and said, "Cunyi, look at who is coming? Let's talk about this later, okay?"

Only then did Liu Cunyi find out that Sun Chenghui was followed by Sun Chengwei, who had just been released from the labor camp, and couldn't help but be stunned, so he yelled at Liu Yuan and the three children: "Get out of the way for me first, and I'll clean you up when I get back!"
