Chapter 63: Road Closure
……
In her sleep, she seemed to see him.
He was dressed in a military uniform, his face was dirty, and he could only see his dark eyes, and when they looked at them, they suddenly ...... She saw ...... A bullet came from behind him......
"Ah...... Flash away" With this exclamation, Zhou Shujie woke up from his dream, his hands tightly tugging on the quilt, and it took a while to wake up.
He said to himself, "Is it a dream? It turns out that it's not real, it's great." ”
……
She didn't know.
In the jungle thousands of miles away from her, several soldiers were nervously surrounding their commander, asking worriedly, "Sir, how are you?
On one side, there was a slightly young soldier who hung his head and blamed himself with tears: "It's all my fault, it's all my fault, if the commander hadn't saved me, he wouldn't have been injured." ”
Sun Jinzhu, who was covering his arms, glanced at them and said, "I'm fine, get up and keep fighting!"
The soldiers asked, "Sir, are you really okay?"
Sun Jinzhu waved his hand and said, "It's really okay, it's just a little bit of skin." After speaking, he raised his left arm to show them the arm that had been brought down by the bullet, and the wound did not bleed because of the burning of the bullet, so Sun Jinzhu wrapped it a few times with a strip of cloth.
At this time, the distant gunshots rang out again. Everyone didn't care about this anymore, they all picked up their guns and threw themselves into the war again.
However, a young soldier clenched the gun in his hand, followed his comrades firmly with his eyes and rushed into the battlefield, no longer having the timidity and hesitation of just entering the battlefield......
……
This heavy snow fell for three days.
The flat ground is one meter deep, and the snow blown by the wind on the side of the mountain and in the leeward place is even one and a half meters deep.
There are piles of snow in the yard of Zhou Shujie's house, and from a distance, it looks like she has placed big white steamed buns in the yard.
If it weren't for her diligence, she would definitely not be able to open the door now.
When the sun hangs in the sky and the snow on the ground, the eyes of the people who are shaking are dazzling.
The village heard the shouts of the village elder and uncle summoning everyone.
"Listen, big guy... Under the snow, ah... Sealed the way, ah... Each of us, ah... Out of two strong laborers, ah... I'll count you as one job a day, ah... There's something you want to go, ah... Half a little later, ah... With the tools, ah... Meet at the east end of the village, ah... I'm done!Ah......hh
The shouting voice of the village elder is really distinctive, Zhou Shujie wanted to laugh when he heard it.
In this winter, clearing the snow is not a good job, and the shoes I wear now are all of a thousand layers, not waterproof at all, and I will be wet and transparent after staying in the snow for half a day, which will definitely not be done in the future.
Now it's different, haven't you heard? There are only two places in each family, and everyone is rushing to go because of the one job given a day.
The current one is different from the one that recorded the work in the past, and now a worker will be counted as 20 catties of grain in the autumn, so as long as there is work on the team, everyone will rush to go.
After a while, two people came out of each yard with tools. Hulala's large group of people started cleaning from the entrance of the village.
At this time, the dirt road was only more than three meters wide. Five people are in a row, with a distance of five meters, so that the people in front of the row are more tired, because they have to walk through the snow one meter deep, and the villagers later came back and said that walking alone was more tiring than clearing the snow.
There are about 400 people in the village, and the 50-mile road from the village to the county seat was cleared in one day.
When the villagers came back, they even used their shovels to repair the snow piled up on both sides of the road and make it smooth, standing on the hill and looking down like a big smooth slide, as if you could slide quickly to the other end as long as you sat here.
Zhou Shujie, like the women in the village who didn't go to clear the snow, wrapped herself like a penguin. Holding the basket, basket by basket out across the snow in the courtyard.
Other families have a large population, and the older children will help, so the speed of clearing the snow is relatively fast, and it doesn't take two hours to finish the snow.
Zhou Shujie's family is only herself, like ants moving and then going upside down.
The mother-in-law helped her watch the two children who had woken up and were playing.
Zhou Shujie cleared half of the snow in the yard, and he couldn't move a little from sweating, so reinforcements came at this time.
It was Aunt Guo, who brought a group of male and female generals from her family to help Zhou Shujie.
Aunt Guo asked Zhou Shujie with a smile: "How is it, the daughter-in-law of the pillar, is it impossible to do it." ”
Zhou Shujie replied to Aunt Guo'er's words with a smile. "Isn't it? This snow is too big, if you don't come, I won't be able to clear this snow today, and I will leave it for tomorrow to dry slowly, and I really can't do it." ”
Aunt Guo said with a smile: "This year's snow is quite heavy, and I haven't had such a big snow for many years." Isn't there an old saying, okay! What snow is it and what year?" Aunt Guo lowered her head and pondered, but she couldn't think of that sentence.
Zhou Shujie and the sisters-in-law of the Guo family glanced at each other with a smile and said in unison: "Ruixue Zhaofeng Year!"
Aunt Guo slapped her face: "That's right, that's what I said, you said it was on your lips just now, so I can't say it." ”
As soon as Aunt Guo's voice fell, everyone in the courtyard burst out laughing.
As soon as there were many people, they worked very quickly, and they cleared the rest of the snow in a laughing and laughing way.
In the midst of laughter, Zhou Shujie listened to Guo Sange's words: I will go up the mountain in two days to have a look, now that the snow is covering the mountain, the food in the mountain is eaten up, and the wild things will slowly go out of the mountains to find food.
Guo Sange and the others created some traps and hidden traps on the side of the nearby mountain.
Go every ten days or eight days, and there will be some big or small harvest.
When the smoke rose from every house in the village, the men who had gone out to clear the snow and open the road came back one by one laughing and laughing.
When they entered the house, they immediately took off their soaked pants and shoes, sat on the kang and shivered with a quilt.
In fact, after sweating, it was already cold, but I endured it all the time, afraid of losing face in front of the villagers.
As soon as you enter the house, you don't have to pretend in front of your family, and the upper and lower teeth of the cold teeth are clicking.
The pair of shoes that were frozen hard took off and threw them to the ground, and you could hear the sound of gold and iron.
The funniest thing is the cotton pants he was wearing, take off the frozen cotton pants, stand on the kang, and don't fall!
This scene made the wives and children at home laugh.
After laughing, the women also took out the cold ginger soup or boiled water that they had prepared at home for the men to drink.
The men were surrounded by quilts, drinking the hot soup in their hands, looking at their wives and children scurrying around them with gentle and smiling eyes, and they felt that their frozen bodies seemed to be less cold.
Zhou Shujie's home, although it is a little different from other people's homes, is also the same warmth.
Zhou Shujie felt that it would be better to drink some hot soup on a snowy day, so he prepared hot soup noodles for dinner.
She and her mother-in-law each drank three bowls, and used chopsticks to occupy a little noodle soup and put it in the mouths of two hungry drooling children for them to taste.
Looking at the two children chatting and tasting the little noodle soup in their mouths, the smile on Zhou Shujie's face never fell this night.
