10. Mildew rain

During the rainy season, it was drizzling on the river, and I didn't have the heart to appreciate the lingering beauty, and it rained for a few days and nights, which made Li and his family feel bad. The air humidity is high and stuffy, and the clothes are easy to mold, and the villagers also call it "mildew rain".

Faced with the ticking rain every day, it seems to never stop. Every day with a musty smell.

There is no girl like a lilac, holding an oil-paper umbrella, wandering in the long rainy alley, with a graceful figure and a beautiful figure.

The reality is that the dirt roads are muddy and muddy when you go out. When it rains, the family can't collect the yellow eel, and it can't be transported, whether it's a board cart or a donkey cart, this road is full of mud nests.

I had no choice but to put away the yellow eels at the bridge of the flood river in the town, and leaned by the river, starting to collect them for two hours at 5 o'clock in the afternoon every day.

Now every day in cash, Li Long is carrying a calfskin bag specially bought in the provincial capital, swaggering, this stage of experience, the past youth is becoming less and less. However, Li Long has recently fallen into unrequited love, and a girl who sends yellow eels over every day makes Li Long unrelenting, this is an era when you have to blush when you talk to the opposite sex outside.

Li Long did reach the age of the beginning of love, when the seed inadvertently fell into his heart to take root and sprout, he began to pay attention to a person's every move every day, of course, pretending to be inadvertent, worried too deliberately, in fact, he cared very much about continuing day by day, this sweet burden, occasionally saying the last sentence will be happy for a long time, the mind is full of that person's things, this feeling, there is always no reason, it seems to sprout in an instant, and then it grows up finely and densely, like a garlic seedling in the ground, a few days ago it was bare and nothing, and a small seedling grew one day, and if you don't pay attention to it, it will grow up after a few days, how happy it looks like。

Once Li He also took a special look at this little girl, wearing a pair of faded black cloth shoes that could no longer be earthy, wearing a navy blue shirt that did not fit well, and a black square headscarf around her head in a decent manner. The skin is not white, the key is that in the countryside, whether it is a woman or a little girl, there is no white, as soon as the farming season comes, the militia company commander of the brigade organizes young people to go to the training of the fleil, and the secretary of the regiment branch of the brigade organizes the members to hold a meeting to study, so women have become the main force in farming.

Poor girls born in this year, they cut the grain in the hot sky during the day, and pulled the seedlings in the field at night with the stars, and the hot day was bitten by mosquitoes and insects. At this time, there is no pesticide and chemical fertilizer scourge, not only the yellow eel loach, but also the many leeches and snakes in the field, the leeches on the foot pole are swollen and shiny, and the seedlings often catch the snake in their hands, the bitterness is really unspeakable, no food, no clothing, no firewood, many girls really can't stand this sin, there is a thought that life is better than death.

So I often heard rumors that a few people drowned in a certain bay and that a certain group of girls hanged themselves.

Women hold up half the sky, in fact, the real half of the sky, as soon as two people in the countryside quarrel, women will shout to men, 'I will suffer with your ass all my life', and men usually murmur silently.

So Li He, who has lived two lives, has seen Wang Yulan, and Li Mei's suffering, which is really respectful and sad for them.

The little boy in the hazy love stage, usually looks at a very strong person, once he falls into unrequited love, he will unconsciously put his position low, desperately thinking about changing himself to get closer to the person he likes, and doing a lot of things that make normal people unthinkable, and doing those things is undoubtedly a crime in the eyes of others.

Li He doesn't care about this, as long as it's not the Zhang Ni in the previous life, who the younger brother is looking for as a daughter-in-law, only the character is upright, and the others won't care too much.

Li He took Da Zhuang and Li Long to squat at the bridge to collect yellow eels every day, and after collecting them, he didn't go home, so he went directly to a roadside stall to eat some scallion pancakes or cold noodles. As for the old man and the two uncles, they will occasionally help bring some food when they come early, and it will be more difficult to walk on the road when it rains, and there is no moonlight at night, so they can only start to set off before it is dark. Sometimes it is early and there is no one at the fishery company, so you have to wait there until 2 a.m., and sometimes the people from the finance office come even later, so you have to wait until 4 a.m., which is even more miserable.

Li He looked at the clothes on his body, and a pair of liberation shoes were covered in mud. Look at the khaki shirt again, I don't know if it's rain or sweat, it's dirty like a torn sack on the body, and it can't be flattened with wrinkles.

Finally, when the rain stopped and entered the heat again, Li He didn't dare to squat at the bridge, so he could only put the stall under the shade of the bridge, even if it was already more than 6 o'clock, but the heat was still penetrating.

Taking advantage of the fact that they are not busy now, Da Zhuang and Li Long are hiding in the river and are reluctant to come up, it is the summer vacation, and there is a group of bare-bottomed children in the river, and their clothes are placed on the riverbank. The Hongshui River is a tributary of the Huai River, a very clean river, and the nearby residents use the water in the river to wash vegetables and laundry, Li He remembers that in later generations, people here opened pig farms and flowed all the dirty things into this river, and in a few years the river will become a dirty river. Later, with the economic development, both sides of the Huai River are also covered with sand fields, the river is covered with sand suction boats, sand trucks run everywhere, dust and exhaust are wanton, and the bridge in front of you is not kept because of overweight.

Li Long was lying on his back in the water, and was suddenly pulled by Da Zhuang, stood up, looked in the direction of Da Zhuang's finger, and hurriedly ran ashore to get dressed. Li Long's unrequited love object, Duan Mei, was pushing a small cart slowly towards this side, and the bag on the cart knew that it was a yellow eel without looking at it. Li Long didn't want to fall naked in front of the person he cared about.

Li He smiled, gave up his position to Li Long, took off his clothes himself, and plunged into the water directly with his pants, and only leaked out of his head after wearing more than ten meters.

Before he could prick a few fierce men, he heard Li Long and a group of people scolding each other...... "Hey, boy, be honest, don't keep your mouth clean, or I'm welcome" Li Long said fiercely to a few young people, it turned out that a few young people in the river were whistling violently at Duan Mei who was pushing a small cart, which annoyed Li Long. At this time, the young man is much simpler, at most a little fancy, not even a gangster, and a hooligan can't get along. But after all, it is the young man who wants the most face, and he is so fierce in public, who can be willing to step down like this.

The ancestors of the eight generations have greeted each other several times, scolded each other a few times, and were aroused by Li Long's sentence "There is a kind of you come up", the four young people came up from the river in pants, and they were about to tear up with Li Long, although they knew that the three brothers who collected the yellow eel were not easy to mess with, but they were not afraid of things, and they began to fight in the town after junior high school, and they did not do less fighting.

Duan Mei, who was standing next to her, was at a loss, and grabbed Li Long in a panic, "Don't scold, I'm fine."

Li He originally grabbed Da Zhuang, who was going to go up and beat people, and gave his younger brother a chance to save the beauty heroically, but looking at this posture, he knew that he couldn't be good, and he was afraid that his younger brother would suffer a loss, so he and Da Zhuang hurriedly went ashore. "your mother" as soon as a big tall man came ashore, there were still a few steps away from holding his fist and was about to pounce on Li Long, Li He had just gone to the river, a runner did not hesitate to kick up from the back of the big tall man, the tall one lay down directly, turned around and kicked on the waist of another young man, and took advantage of the other party's stumbling side, directly strangled the other party's neck, and pressed it on the ground at once. Li He still treats this young man as a child in his heart, but he doesn't dare to greet his head with a heavy hand, he has also been in the military industrial system, he has practiced, and now he is a stick guy who eats Ma Ma Xiang, he has skills and strength in fighting, if he is dead, he will seem to be generally knowledgeable.

Of course, if these babies have bricks, knives or sticks in their hands, then Li He will be beaten to death directly, because fifteen or sixteen years old is also the least taboo about the consequences, as long as they are given a chance, they really dare to stab people as soon as their brains are hot.

The scene was immediately chaotic, the children in the river were coaxing on the side, Da Zhuang and Li Long have always been good at fighting, and it is normal to fight if they don't agree in the countryside.

However, after a circle, Da Zhuang's hand was heavy, put the person down, and stopped moving after kicking it. Li Longke didn't care about it, rode on the opponent's long-haired child, and directly clenched his fist and hit the opponent's head.

Li He hurriedly pulled Li Long up and scolded, "What's the matter, you still have to beat people to death"

Seeing that Li Long's neck was cut by the other party's nails, and the blood also came out, Li He was a little distressed again, kicked the long-haired leg lying on the ground, and said, "Don't go to the ground and pretend to be dead, you just have a nosebleed, get up"

The long hair had to cover his nose, glanced at the other three accomplices, and said fiercely, "We're not done with this."

Li smiled kindly, and said to the four of them, "Why is it not over, it is rare to learn from children, go home and complain to your parents? Besides, you are a girl who is molesting others, and you are also the first to do it, suing the police station is a hooliganism, you want to eat guns, or I will accompany you to the police station?"

Duan Mei, who had been standing next to her in a panic, heard Li He say this, but she was not a cowering girl, but a responsible one, and said, "Yes, I will go to the police station to accuse you of being a hooligan."

Although a few young people are not young, they have never seen the world, and when they are confused with a few words, they are uneasy in their hearts, and they are tall and said, "My buddy's nose was beaten by you and bled out?"

Li He didn't bother to worry about these children, the other party was just young and vigorous, not so bad, and also gave the other party a step, "Look at my brother, the blood on this neck can be light? You take the five dollars, and take this little brother to the clinic to stop the nosebleed, okay.

Li Long wanted to listen to 5 yuan, but he was not happy, and shouted "brother", Li He glared at him, but ignored him.

Although these young people are from the town, they don't have a serious job, and they usually beat the Nanshan Nursing Home and step on the Beihai Kindergarten, but they just take a few cents and smoke cigarettes, how have they ever seen such a big money. Several people glanced at each other, but they didn't make a sound, thinking that the other party was giving money to be soft, and Changmao took the money and said, "Okay, count you as acquaintances."

As soon as Li Long heard this, he was about to go up and pounce, but he was stopped by Li He.

The four of them went down to the river and washed casually, put on their clothes again, and walked away as soon as they lifted their feet.

I don't know when some people surrounded the side, Li He looked up to the sky and sighed, sure enough, it was a national native.

Duan Mei, the little girl, saw afterwards that because she lost 5 yuan, she had to bear half of it. How could Li Long let his sweetheart lose money, Huang Eel weighed it well, and he gave as much as he calculated. Duan Mei is sincere, even if it is not good to explain to her parents when she goes home.

As soon as the little girl left, Li He said, "If you really care, the conditions of our family are not bad now, go back and let grandma inquire, see which one, go directly to the door to propose"

Li Long instantly blushed like a monkey's ass, tooyoung.

The old man came over with two uncles later, heard about it, and then said to Li Long, "Your brother did the right thing about this, after all, you took advantage of it, this is the same as Da Zhuang's father driving a donkey, throw a whip and give a turnip." β€œ
