Elementary School Chapter 1 First Awakening
My name is Wang Rui, I was born in an ordinary small village, and my parents opened a cement shop in the county seat. Before I could speak, I was taken to the next city and raised by my grandparents in the next city.
Grandma's house is in a village, and the distance between the head and the end of the village is 300 meters. It takes half an hour to get to the nearest town by bus. At that time, the roads were paved with stones, and whenever a tractor drove by, there was a cloud of dust on the road. The people on this road live in isolation. Self-sufficient, relying on the mountains to eat the mountains. Each family raises a pig, kills it before the Chinese New Year, and then marinates the pork into bacon, which is the meat food of the year. If you're on an important holiday, you might take a crowded and foul-smelling bus to the town to buy a pound of fresh pork, the most delicious food of childhood. But every time Grandpa went to town, he went in the morning and came back in the evening. Because the bus only runs twice a day, it is the only traffic in the village.
I have a few small hair, Fengzi, Jiajia, cousin, because I was competitive since I was a child, I have always called my cousin brother.
We grew up playing with a piece of peeing paste mud. The adults in the village gave us five cents and let us fight, and we scuffled together, like desperately showing off our acting skills to win the happiness of the adults, for five cents, I could kneel down and worship them without saying a word. The bad things we did spread in the village. Grandma slapped me and my cousin twice. Since then, my cousin and I have never knelt down again.
My brother and I, as well as my grandparents, slept together every night on my grandparents' wooden marriage bed. Every night before going to bed, my grandmother would boil a large pot of hot water on the earthen stove for the four of us to wash. There is a footbasin at home, and the order of each foot wash is me and my brother, then my grandmother, and finally my grandfather. Because my brother and I like the feeling of soaking our feet in water, by the time my grandfather washes his feet, the water is already cold. After washing our feet, we lay on the bed and watched TV, the black and white TV set was said to be my grandmother's dowry, and every time it rained or thundered, the TV would run out of signal. My brother and I would pester my grandmother to tell us stories, sing mountain songs, and put us to sleep. The alarm clock that woke us up was my grandfather's cigarettes, and every morning he would sit on the bamboo bench next to the bed and smoke a cigarette and watch a play. Talk to the grandmother at the bedside for a few homely words.
One night, I had a high fever. There was no transportation in the village, my grandfather carried me on his back, and my grandmother took my brother by the hand, flashlighted, walked five miles, and knocked on the doctor's door. All I remember is my grandmother's scolding of me, blaming me for taking off my clothes and playing during the day and catching a cold. And the way the old-fashioned flashlight shines a faint red light.
Once, my grandfather went to have a wedding wine, and at the banquet, he stole a hairy crab and put it in his pocket. When I came back two days later, my grandmother warmed the crab and cut it in half, half for me and half for my brother.
At that time, I felt that as long as my grandparents didn't do anything, they were the best people in the world.
When the farming season is busy, the adults all go to the mountains, and there seem to be only a few women left in the village who cook at home.
And a bunch of our children, a few of us will not be idle, go to the river to catch fish, catch crabs, catch shrimp. The river in front of the door was crystal clear, and a large stone was found, and two people gently and slowly lifted it. You can see crabs. At first, we were very bold, but later, we were scared of the crab claws, and we only dared to catch some small crabs. Imagine the little crab as the child of the big crab, get a nylon rope to hang the crab, and drag the crab to run frantically to get revenge on the big crab. Often running and running, the little crab disappears.
In addition, we also like to pee in the ant's nest, go to the mountains to find some slender wooden bars to duel with Shang Fang's sword, go to the fields to kick over the freshly laid straw, go to the mud to jump, and take firecrackers to blow up the pit. Small village, we have developed everything that can be entertained. The relationship is also getting better day by day.
One day, Jiajia told us that he was going to study in the city, and at that time I thought reading was a very annoying thing, and it broke us apart. Jiajia went to a far away place. Since then, he has only been able to come back once every two years. On the day he left, we got up early in the morning to watch his parents get on the bus with a big bag of luggage, and before leaving, I gave him my most precious glass beads.
There are only three people left in the village, my brother, and Kaifeng. One day, we said that we were going to take a nap on the big rock by the river, but the stone was too big, and my brother climbed up with difficulty, and then he pulled me from above, and Kaifeng pushed me below, and finally I went up too. In the end, my brother and I prepared to come up to Lakai. We thought it was fun, I was holding my left hand, my brother was holding my right hand, and Kaifeng was lying on the rock, and he couldn't get up.
"Pull me up," Kaifeng called from below. My brother and I worked harder again, and the three of us laughed together, but somehow, Kaifeng's laughter became more and more uncomfortable, and finally turned into crying. My brother and I don't know why, and we are still struggling to hold Kaifeng's hand. Kaifeng cried louder and louder. Attracted his grandmother over. His grandmother was anxious for the two of us to put him down quickly.
Kaifeng's hand was dislocated by us! My brother and I fell into a catastrophe, Kaifeng was held by his grandmother, crying non-stop, my brother and I realized the seriousness of the matter, and also cried. His grandma blamed the three of us for messing around. The sound was so loud that the women of the village heard it and hurriedly called our grandmother over. Grandma came and slapped my brother and me. When I asked who we did, we actually did it together, but I was scared and kept saying that my brother did it. My brother kept saying that I did it. That afternoon, my brother and I were punished by my grandmother. Kaifeng was taken to the hospital. When he returned, he had a plaster cast on one hand, and was leisurely nibbling on flatbread and drinking porridge at home. Seeing that the two of us were coming, he beckoned us to hurry over, took out a large loaf of bread and tore it in half, and divided it between the two of us. Looking at Kaifeng's plaster, I feel apologetic. But the pancakes were so fragrant that we ate them in a big bite, and we began to plan to climb the rock again tomorrow.
At that time, the New Year's money for the children in our village was very simple. I was five years old, my grandfather gave me five dollars, and my brother was six years old, and my grandfather gave him six dollars. Kaifeng was four years old, and his grandfather only gave him four dollars. On the eve of the Chinese New Year, Grandpa would buy a string of firecrackers and put them out of our reach. Every day, I dismantled a few from the string of firecrackers and distributed them to my brother and I to play with, and finally the rest was knocked out at once on Chinese New Year's Eve. I went to Kaifeng with my brother with firecrackers, Kaifeng took out a box of firecrackers from his pocket angrily, he was very proud, because the firecrackers in my brother's hands were blown up at one point, if the speed is not fast, the live lead is too short, it is easy to blow up the ears, but Kaifeng's firecrackers will explode after a long time, put the tail of the firecracker in the water and immerse it for a while, and it can also sink into the water, and throw it towards the place where there are many fish, and you can float a few fish with white bellies. It makes me and my brother very envious. Then in those days, my brother and I have been following behind Kaifeng's buttocks, thinking of various plans to play with the box of firecrackers. In the end, there was only one left, and I don't know who proposed it, to fry and play. The three of them went to the hut and lit firecrackers with matches and threw them into the dung pit. After a long time, there was no reaction. It can't be a squib. I asked my brother to go and see the situation, but my brother didn't dare to go, and Kaifeng didn't dare to go. Then I peeked into the pit of, and with a loud bang, I was splashed with. Brother and Kaifeng laughed, I rushed to Kaifeng who was close to me and wiped some of the on his body, and then I went with Kaifeng to catch the brother who ran away and evened out some on his body. Okay, all three of them have on them now.
