Chapter 3 My Own Way Goes My Own Way
In winter, the work of the production team will not be reduced at all, piles of corn and soybeans to be shelled and grained, and women who can't lift more than 100 catties of sacks, are basically assigned to raise livestock, leaving only a few women with rough hands and strong feet to clean up the site; Su Hua's daily work is to cook pig food for the right 4 pigs, 5 meals a day, the experienced old man told her that the pig's belly has no bottom, how much to eat, and you can't fill too much into the tank at a time, or you don't eat enough, and the interval is too long, these animals should arch the wall, The arch trough is restless, and it should be fed little by little, several times, so that although there is not enough to eat, it will not cause hunger......
Su Hua sat on the small stool by the stove and looked at the pig food in the pot, from time to time to get up and stir it so as not to paste the pot, today she didn't bring her own "private work", a few days ago the village doctor Ding saw her mother and did not prescribe medicine, dragged her father outside the door and muttered for a long time before leaving, she couldn't hear Dr. Ding's words, only saw her father wiping the corners of his eyes while listening, and when her father entered the house, she whispered and asked, "Dad, what did the doctor say, when did you go over to get medicine, I have to prepare money", Dad whispered back "It's not a big deal, don't take medicine first", " Then why does my mother still have a stomachache, I touched the big bag on my mother's belly, but it was hard, and I didn't see it, I woke up in the middle of the night several times and heard my mother humming", Daddy Su waved his hand and motioned for her to stop talking...... Su Hua didn't understand, why don't people take medicine when they are sick, I can work more if I don't have money, and I can borrow some from Aunt Wang's house, his family is a living Bodhisattva, and she will definitely be able to borrow it, she decided to take a detour to Dr. Ding's house to ask about her mother's condition when she went home at night.
At this time, the maple girl was happily kneeling on the kang to let her mother tie her braids, it was rare that her mother didn't cry pain today, and she could still sit up and play with her, Su Mu asked the maple girl to bring a wooden comb, first carefully combed the maple girl's messy hair like a bird's nest, and then tied a "crooked peach" on the top of her head with hemp rope, the maple girl pouted a little unhappily, "I want two, mother, I want two, like the eldest sister, like ......this" said and gestured with her little hands, Su Mu smiled" Wait for our Feng girl's hair to grow longer, and my mother will give you two ties, okay, now one looks good", Feng girl immediately happily tied Su Mu's arms, "Mother, cluck, mother, cluck"...... This afternoon, it was rare to hear the laughter of the mother and daughter in this dilapidated grass house! As if remembering something, Su's mother asked Feng Yatou, "What about your second brother and third sister?", Feng Yatou shook her head, "I don't know", the words did not fall, only heard the yard, the two sisters and brothers shouted louder and louder, Su Qing shouted a little annoyed, "I'll just go and see for a while, what are you looking for there, Yan Dong and they all laugh at me," Su Fang returned even more angrily when she heard this, "Who told you not to watch our mother at home, what kind of fun are you going out to make trouble!" , Seeing that the two people who entered the house were angry, Su Mu asked softly, "What's the matter, why are you still arguing, Fang'er, where are you going, you are so angry", Su Fang heard Su Mu's words of concern, although she was still angry in her heart, she still forcibly explained to her mother, "Today's school holiday, obviously I said last night that I would take care of you at home, but I can't sneak out to play, where can I bury it?", Su Mu just wanted to comfort Su Fang a few words, Su Qing seemed to suddenly think of something, and her smiling face couldn't tell that she had just finished getting angry, "Mother, what do you say I'm going to see?" "What are you looking at", "Do you know the big landlord Niu Er at the head of the village", "You know, isn't it the one who has a high school student at home?" Didn't his house be raided on the day of the Chinese New Year last year, and there were a lot of villain books that were searched, and a fire was burned, and I heard that there was a pair of silver bracelets that he had privately hidden, and it seemed that he had also been confiscated, Niu Er was taken away directly, and yesterday the captain went to inform the nerd in his house, telling him that his father had hanged himself, and asked him to bring the ashes back, these two stunned people said that they didn't go anywhere, and they all blasted people out, and this morning Aunt Li, who lived in the west courtyard of his house, saw that he had not come out of the house, so he wanted to go over and see, guess what!" "That kid has a little Japanese set- I cut my stomach, my intestines flowed all over the ground, and the soil on the ground was stained red......"
Su's mother was a little stunned, the name of the kid of the Niu Er family didn't know, the village called this child a nerd, and now he greets the New Year from time to time, but when this child was a child and grew up for the New Year, the quasi-security would go from house to house in the team, making a gesture, but he never had a snack to eat, and even the morning of the house was raided as usual, and the good child had no shortcomings except for Mu Nedian, why can't he think about it? Su Fang looked at Su's mother's painful expression and shouted a triumphant Su Qing. Then what are you going to join in the fun, you see people's blood flowing all over the ground, Yan Dong and they all laughed at you didn't even dare to enter the courtyard, what can you see, don't scare people here!", Su Qing pouted, "Aunt Li and a few other aunts stood there and said, I really listened to it, and said that no one cleaned it up, so the captain uncovered his kang mat and covered him with a ......", Su Fang heard that Su Qing was going to continue, and he was about to cover his mouth when he got started, "Can you stop talking, it's not over?" Su Qing ran out of the house again.
Su's mother was a little distracted, and the maple girl held her little hand and shook it in front of her mother's eyes, "Mother, play with me", "My mother is a little tired, will you go out to play with the third sister?"
Su Mu pressed her hand on her abdomen that began to cramp again, and did not lie down immediately, she was still thinking about what Su Qing said just now, such a good family, although it is a "landlord", but it has never bullied the villagers, there are only two living people left in the family, why did they all end up like this! What about herself, she has never done a bad thing in her life, so many people, why did she have such a torturous disease, if there is really such a day, there are only 4 children left, who can help her take care of it, what can the child's father do, and he didn't even have a person to talk to...... Just think about it for a while, cry for a while, hurt for a while, think about it for a while......
Su Hua didn't see Dr. Ding, I guess I went to someone's house to see the illness again, she walked home stupidly, muttering to herself, the sky was completely dark, she had to hurry back to cook, or their father must be hungry, thinking about things, her feet couldn't help but stumble on the dirt road, but it didn't affect her steps, there was a yellow light on the opposite side, not bright, but it shone straight under her legs, she was nervous and just about to shout who it was, the person opposite shouted first, "Dahua, don't worry, I'll pick you up" Wang Zhongliang and Su Hua are the same age, studying in junior high school in the village, he said that he would go to see Chairman Mao in the future, and he would go to college, in the eyes of Dahua, although these are dreams that she can't realize in this life, but for Wang Zhongliang, it must not be a dream. "Do you have a flashlight?", Su Hua looked at Wang Zhongliang's hand and asked enviously, "Ah, this is sent by my father's team, and there is one captain in every village, I see that your chimney is not smoking yet, so I know that you must not have come back, so I will steal it to pick you up!", "Oh, then let's go quickly, don't let Uncle Wang know to beat you again" Su Hua covered her mouth and smiled, Wang Zhongliang touched his "pot cover" a little embarrassed They also giggled, and the two children giggled and trotted in the faint yellow light......
After dinner, Su Hua originally wanted to make up for the soles of Na's shoes that had fallen during the day, but the maple girl shouted that she was hungry, and she was playing tricks in her arms, as if she didn't find something to eat from her, and she would never give up, Su Fang, who had entered the house with firewood, just put down the firewood, so she walked to Su Hua and took out something wrapped in yellow paper and handed it to her, and whispered, "Brother Zhongliang just stood on the wall and called me, let me give it to you", Su Hua opened it carefully. A small packet of fried peanuts with salt', Su Hua was a little embarrassed, just wanted to go back to the third sister something, Su Fang said again, "Brother Zhongliang let you taste two grains too, and then give them to us, haha", Su Hua blushed and looked at the maple girl in her arms, at this time, this little gluttonous cat was staring directly at the delicious, Su Qing, who was writing homework by the light of the oil lamp, also smelled the fragrance, and immediately pounced, "Sister, it's delicious, I'm hungry, I can't write anymore when I'm hungry", Su Hua looked at her younger brother who was already a head taller than herself, and immediately caught 6/ 7 grains were placed in his hand, so that he could relieve the cravings, and let Su Fang give the whole family a few grains to taste, and specially instructed that the paper should be kept and smoothed by hand for the second brother to make straw paper, Su Qing pouted while eating, "I don't need it, not to mention such a big stall of oil, it smells so fragrant, how can I still go to class", Su Fang ignored his muttering, and threw it directly on his textbook after finishing according to what the eldest sister said...... Su Hua silently looked at the east wall, and unconsciously thanked the kind-hearted Wang Zhongliang, wishing his dream to come true soon.
