Tang Xiao's parents found a host family for her, which was the home where the eldest daughter of the third grandmother's family next to her married off.
Aunt Ping's family not only accepted Tang Xiao's one child, many children in the same village lived in Aunt Ping's house, Tang Xiao remembered that there were 15 or 6 children who only lived there at most, not counting the noon at Aunt Ping's house.
Aunt Ping's family has five people, grandparents, Aunt Ping and her husband, and Aunt Ping's son.
Aunt Ping's family has a cat that is pure white, with one eye blue and the other eye yellow, and everyone calls it a Persian cat. This cat is very interesting, it never eats mice, and it is very afraid of mice, but it likes to eat birds, and it catches birds himself.
Tang Xiao had never seen such a cat, but he thought it was very novel and interesting.
My uncle-in-law also likes sheepdogs very much, and in Tang Xiao's memory, my brother-in-law raised 3 sheepdogs, but these were not raised at the same time, but every time my uncle's dog was raised, it would be a pity.
Tang Xiao is the one who has lived there for the longest time! At the beginning, when the children were relatively small, Tang Xiao lived with their grandparents, and then the children gradually increased, but the extra children had to live in their house with Aunt Ping, so Tang Xiao still lived in the previous place.
In Tang Xiao's memory, she may not be a cold-blooded person, and she can cry, but few people will see her cry.
Tang Xiao remembered that since she left the house and came out to live, the most she saw was others crying, Tang Xiao remembered that when she first went to Aunt Ping's house, she would hear children of the same age sitting on the kang and crying loudly every night.
Every time, this one cries and then the other starts crying, or four or five children sit there crying at the same time.
Tang Xiao didn't understand how Aunt Ping could have so much patience to coax them, and even Tang Xiao himself would feel inexplicably irritable when he sat there.
However, every time at this time, Aunt Ping would say to them, "Look at Tang Xiao, look at how well-behaved people are, you stretch out your fingers and count, you can go home in two days, and if you are crying, your mother will not want you." ”
It's these few words every time, but it's so good every time.
At that time, there were no line cars, and Aunt Ping would charter a car every two weeks and send everyone back, while families with a little more money would take their children home every week. Tang Xiao's parents are still busy with their livelihoods, and they can't wait for Tang Xiao to come back for two weeks, because no one has no time or experience to take care of her.
Tang Xiao is also happy not to go back, she doesn't want to go back to that home by herself, although no one will care about her here, but at least someone will play with her, at least Aunt Ping will praise her, at least everyone thinks she is a good child.
Tang Xiao is a smart child, but he just doesn't like to study.
Every year, the teachers of the parent-teacher meeting will leave her mother behind, but it is useless, Tang Xiao knows that the school she is in now is a primary school and a junior high school can be studied together, no matter whether you study well or not, you can go to the junior high school there.
At that time, Tang Xiao didn't know that he had a distant cousin who had the right there, Tang Xiao only knew that his other cousin was the principal of the primary school in this school, and many times Tang Xiao would walk by the eldest cousin's office intentionally or unintentionally, whenever the eldest cousin saw Tang Xiao, he either gave her a few dollars, or gave her something delicious.
Tang Xiao was still hairy until the third grade of primary school, and she never wore a skirt, so that many children thought she was a boy.
At that time, the school was still a bungalow, and it was not a unified heating, and all the students had to use their own dry wood to keep warm every winter, Tang Xiao clearly remembered the long hair that he had just grown in the fourth grade, although he was just able to tie it up.
That day she wore a hairpin that her mother bought, which was one of the few gifts her mother gave herself, and she wore it to school happily that day, and now she can't remember why she quarreled with the class leader.
She only remembered that the last hairpin was unfortunately thrown into the furnace by her, although she threw it very decisively at the time, but afterwards she also regretted that she was too impulsive at that time.
Tang Xiao's elementary school name didn't have any too interesting or sad experiences, and she didn't even know how she finished elementary school. She thinks there will be a few friends in everyone's life!
She remembered that there were also two playmates after her elementary school incident, one girl named Liu Bing's family lived not far from the school, and the other girl named Wu Xiu and Tang Xiao came from the same village.
Even she lived with Tang Xiao at Aunt Ping's house. Later, I don't know why she moved away, but at that time the three of them were still good friends, and they had made bold promises.
That day, Wu Xiu invited Tang Xiao to her house to play, and the two children were having a good time, when the adults asked beside them
"What do you two want to do when you two grow up?"
Wu Xiu didn't speak, Tang Xiao thought about it, and then proudly said while gesturing with his hand
"I'm going to make money, and I'm going to make a lot of money. ”
Wu Xiu's mother then asked
"What are you doing with your money?"
Tang Xiao pointed to the location of the previous school
"Where am I going to build a school so I don't have to go out to school!"
At this time, Wu Xiu looked at everyone from the side, "I also want to make money, and I also want to build a big school!"
Tang Xiao's other elementary school friend is called Liu Bing, Liu Bing's personality is completely opposite to Wu Xiu, in Tang Xiao's eyes, Liu Bing is an introverted but easy to get along with,
If Tang Xiao is described, then Liu Bing should be a cute teddy bear, in Tang Xiao's memory, Liu Bing will hardly have an argument with anyone,
And in the school in that small town, every time there was a big event in the school, she would be asked to play a song, because she was one of the few people who could play the dulcimer.
Tang Xiao's elementary school is not exactly accompanied by the two of them, to be precise, Tang Xiao only played well with the two of them after the third grade, Tang Xiao felt that there was nothing too nostalgic for her in the first half of her life, and some were just a laughing stock that she could make people laugh at when she befriended others in the future.
These two were still childhood playmates, and in the end there was no news of them, so it could be said that she didn't want to know where they were or how they were doing, because it was all in vain.
After this summer, Tang Xiao will be promoted to junior high school, which is what Tang Xiao has always expected.
Slowly, Tang Xiao found that many children of the same age were forced to drop out of school after finishing elementary school, which made Tang Xiao very worried about whether such a fate would fall on his head.
The children in the same village who used to play well with have dropped out of school, not because their families have no money.
It's that their parents think that even if they go to school, it's useless, it's better to enter the society earlier, or make money to support the family.
Tang Xiao also heard rumors that she was going to be persuaded to quit when she came home during the summer vacation, she got up early in the morning that day, she thought about it for a long time, and finally she decided that she was going to escape from this place.
She walked until it was dark, but she was hungry and saw no way out, the depths of the mountain were still mountains, and finally she compromised, and she walked home against the fear of the darkness.
However, no one knew about her running away from home, and everyone thought that she was just going out to play late, and she finally got a bad scolding from her father.
During that holiday, Tang Xiao helped his parents a lot inside and out, and also saved "a lot" of savings.
Tang Xiao's favorite fruit tree also left her this summer, Tang Xiao remembered that it was still sunny that morning, but when it was almost afternoon, the weather suddenly became cold, and the wind was blowing, Tang Xiao hurriedly took back the dried vegetables that his mother had dried outside.
Then sat in the house quietly waiting for the storm to come, the heavy rain lasted for more than an hour, and when Tang Xiao went out, she found that the gate of the house and the fruit trees in the backyard were blown down, and the house began to tick, tick and leak a light rain,
Tang Xiao took the basin to prevent smashing the leaky place, and then thought:
If your home can be burned down by a fire, you can build a new house
