Chapter 4 Grandma-like Elder Sister

When I got home, it was sunset, although I felt that I could fall asleep at the end, but I still made a basin of water from the well, took off my shirt, and began to clean, the cold well water made me tremble, but I gritted my teeth and carefully cleaned my body.

For some reason, I think of the dirty cowherd child wearing camouflage uniforms, people's habits really have a lot to do with the environment in which they live, doing such heavy work every day all year round, it is really difficult to maintain good hygiene habits every day, when there was no machinery in the past, those peasants all came over, and they all said that the peasants were miserable! Young people are not willing to grow food, such tiring work, they have to rely on the weather for food, and they have to pay all kinds of miscellaneous taxes, who wants to farm.

I dried my body, changed into a pair of beach pants and a T-shirt and walked into the house, my parents were cooking, because the stove pit was connected to the kang, the house was hot, and I was driven clean by the cold, I took out my mobile phone and looked at it, there was a text message, it was the fifth child in the dormitory, because he was thin and tall, and the person looked a little wooden, we all called him a wooden lump.

"What is the boss doing, are you okay when you go home?"

"It's okay, you're okay with the house, how are you looking for the second job next door?" I replied.

The second next door is the second child in the next bedroom, referred to as the next door two.

He's a particularly lewd guy, the computer is full of action movies, and it's all about playing alternatives, and some things can only be considered trivial.

One summer, the third child in their dormitory was sick, and everyone else went to the hospital to help take turns to take care of him, and he stayed alone in the dormitory at night, probably because he was too excited to watch a movie, and he actually lay on the bed and laughed at himself, and the saddest thing was that the bedroom door was not locked. It's just that that day, the school temporarily organized the whole school's student union personnel to check the dormitory, and the members of the student union of our art department also checked the dormitory one by one under the leadership of the instructor.

At that time, the vice president of the student union was a woman, and although she saw that the light was turned off in the second dormitory next door, she still subconsciously pushed the door gently. It may be that the two next door are too emotionally involved, or it may be that at the critical moment, they didn't realize that the door opened, and the vice chairwoman felt wrong when she heard the sound inside, and wanted to leave, but the guide who came with her pushed the door and walked in, and turned on the light casually.

The second next door who was stimulated by multiple stimuli was all stunned, the instructor, the vice president, and the student union cadres who came with him were all stunned, but the instructor was experienced, and said a classic line "Sleep", which resolved the embarrassment of many parties "Close the door and turn away, and since then, the second next door has become the figure of the whole art department."

After graduation, the second next door and the fifth child in my dormitory, as well as the big bird in his dormitory, went to Dalian to look for a job.

"I haven't found it yet, we have now found a small hotel to live in, and we also ate a meal of seafood during the day, which is expensive when it dies, and we have eaten a bag of small dangjia crispy noodles at night."

Looking at the short breath that the fifth child gave me, I can feel the loneliness and hesitation of the fifth child now, otherwise he would not have told me these little things.

"It's good to settle down, and find a job slowly! I can only comfort myself.

The rice was ready, it was hanging noodles, boiled soft, tender, with red persimmons, green peppers, and thin shallots, the smell made my index finger move, I took the rice bowl and ate seven bowls of soup with noodles, and finally ate myself so frightened that I didn't dare to eat it again.

It was another tossing and turning night, my body was tired to death, but my head was awake, listening to the sound of dogs and cows barking from time to time outside, and in a daze, I seemed to come to a cold basement, in the dim light, several pale, scarlet-eyed and bloodthirsty men and women sat among the tattered tables and chairs.

Frightened in my heart, I walked over with a smile for some reason, and hugged one of the women dressed in white, with bulging twin peaks, and broken skin on her face, showing dried blood, and the woman smiled sadly, revealing her snow-white teeth, and her pale yellow hair showed an alternative luster in the dim light, and her eyes were a pale green.

Just as I was about to ask where I was, two of my best friends suddenly appeared next to me, and I tried to speak, but my chest was blocked, and I opened my mouth a few times without making a sound.

At this moment a fool sitting at the table (I don't know why, I can tell he was a fool) asked me for a tracksuit, and one of my friends said in annoyance: "The first installment has been spent, and there are still some to take here, and I won't care about the money in the future, so he will buy him a set if he wants." After saying that, more than 100 yuan was still on the table covered with dirt.

When I saw that there were still dime and two cents of banknotes inside, it seemed that the country had no longer issued this version of the banknotes, so I picked up the money and put it in my pocket. Then he walked out with two friends.

It was gloomy and cold outside, a waning moon hung in the deep sky, and behind me was a gray tall building, the upper part was light gray, and the lower part was shrouded in dark shadows, and I was about to walk with my friends across the lawn in front of the building, but I found that the lawn suddenly became a body of water, and the moonlight sprinkled on the water, sparkling and moving, and the figures of my two friends also disappeared into the water.

I squatted down to test the depth of the water with my hands, and two tall women, with heavy makeup and outstanding temperament, walked over, and I stared at one of them, and she looked indifferent. There seemed to be anger in her eyes, and a pair of red earrings fluttered back and forth as she walked.

A very handsome man walked out of the shadow of the building, and in the blink of an eye, the two came to the door of the first unit in the building strangely, the door was covered by tulle, the red light was blurred, the two quarreled, and the man said disdainfully, "Give you two hundred yuan." ”

"Are you one of those wild women on the roadside!" cried the woman, and then pleaded with tears streaming down her face, for some reason, I could see so clearly from such a distance.

Another woman came over with a white satchel on her back, and I felt that her face was very round, but I couldn't see her face clearly.

"That girl is my friend, they went to college together" The woman's voice sounded a little deep, as if to tell me a sad past.

I nodded, feeling a little tired, and then the things in front of me disappeared, and when I opened my eyes, I was still in the dilapidated room, I sighed, got up from the kang, put on my clothes, and walked outside.

The sky is still that day, the fence is still the fence, Xiao Huang, who was shrunk in the nest, heard the movement, wagged his tail and walked out, his head stretched forward, his body collapsed straight, he opened his mouth and yawned, made two turns around the nest, sniffed its lunch box, and went back down.

The sound of a cow barking came from a short distance, and the child in camouflage uniform walked in front of me again with a whip herding cattle.

The days are as dull as boiled water, working, sleeping, working, more regular than at school, in this almost isolated small village, the only thing that makes me happy is the small shop in the village, which sells a delicious popsicle, ten yuan a dollar, milky, icy, hawthorn, every time I feel hot I have to buy a bag. It felt like going back to my childhood.

A month passed in a flash, the grass in the ground was finally cut, I boiled a pot of water in a big iron pot, regardless of whether there was still oil stars in it, mixed with some cold water and took a hot bath, looking at the soap foam on my skin, my mood became as blue and clear as the sky overhead.

"Eldest sister, you're back" Just as I was changing clothes in the house, I heard my mother talking to someone, and I hurriedly got dressed, so as not to lose spring.

"It's back," came a very old, tired voice.

I walked out and saw a short, stocky woman with gray hair, a wrinkled face, and a sad expression talking to my mother.

"This is the landlord," my mother smiled at me.

"Auntie is good" looks at the face, I feel that I should call that woman grandma, but my mother calls her eldest sister, and I can only call me aunt.

"This is your son, good young man!" said the landlord with a smile, revealing the few yellowed teeth in his mouth.

"Thank you, Auntie," I laughed.

"Eldest sister, your great-grandson is okay!" the mother asked.

"The little one is fine, meaty, I kept calling grandma when I left" The landlord heard the mother mention her great-grandson, and her eyes showed sincere joy, and then a touch of sadness floated on her face.

"I thought you would have to wait until the end of the year to come back, but I didn't expect it to be like this," my mother asked puzzled.

"Alas, the living habits are different, grandson, granddaughter-in-law don't need me to bring it," the landlord sighed, full of helplessness.

"Young people are like this now, it's good to come back, the vegetables in the field have grown taller, come back and eat some fresh vegetables," the old mother comforted softly, and her eyes dimmed.

"When will your son get married" The landlord seemed to want to get rid of his sadness and changed the subject.

"Who knows when, this is not just graduated, his uncle will give him a job, let's see fate in the future!"

"Your son looks quite honest, and he will definitely be able to find a beautiful daughter-in-law in the future," the landlord laughed as well.

I could only smile stupidly, and said in my heart: "In these days, honest people can't find a beautiful daughter-in-law." ”

The landlord went back to his house to clean up and went out without eating.

"Mom, how old is the landlord?" I asked my mom when I saw the landlord disappear.

"She is a year older than me, and she has had a hard time, you see that her hair is gray, and she went to her granddaughter's house to take the child for a while, it seems that people dislike her, and she is no longer needed" The mother sighed.

"Oh!" I said noncommittally, picked up my phone and walked outside the house, found a cool place to sit down, and played with Snake.

Just when I was bored, the text message ringtone rang, and I opened it to see that it was the fifth child.
