After eating lunch and taking a nap, Zhang Forest went out to send his brother-in-law across the street to catch the bus. My brother-in-law works in a cement factory in the old city, lives in Nanmen Bridge, and can go home by taking one road and two circular buses. The cement factory recruited female workers in filling bags, and my brother-in-law came to ask my uncle Xiao Lin if he would like to go. The work is very simple, it is a semi-mechanical and semi-manual operation, the finished cement flows down from the blanking horn tube, first fills into the bag, then seals, and then stacks. The packaging bag needs to be manually organized, under the hanging horn tube, the weight of each bag of cement, the electronic machinery has been set, fill a bag, the machinery stops, the transmission belt is sent forward, the packaging bag under the cylinder is circled by the ring, the bag mouth is opened, and the horn barrel is automatically sleeved, and the bag continues to be poured into a bag. The upright cement bag is passed to the tail of the belt, and the female worker holds the sealing machine in her hand. After sealing, the cement bag falls from the end of the belt onto the consignment tray and becomes an upside-down position. Five bags were stacked on the consignment tray and then dragged to the side by a hand-cranked lift forklift for stacking. In this whole flow process, the female worker needs to do four things, hang the bag, seal, place the consignment tray, and drag it away. The work is simple, but it needs to be done with hands and feet, properly arranged, which of the four things can not be delayed, the previous one is delayed, it will directly affect the process of the next one, once the product is piled up on the transmission belt, or the consignment plate, only with the strength of a female worker, it is impossible to move away.

As soon as the uncle explained in detail, Xiao Lin shook his head and declined. She thinks that the cement workshop is dusty, dirty and tired, and she has to run around, her legs and feet don't stop, and she can't bear it.

My uncle was angry: You can't bear the turner of the cotton weaving factory, and you can't bear the bag filling worker of the cement factory, tell me what your specialty is?

Xiao Lin said: I didn't eat you, it's really lenient. My own family members didn't speak, and you came to teach me a lesson? I live 369, you live 258, right or wrong, what does it matter to you? I want you to talk too much!

My uncle said: Etiquette, righteousness and shame, honor and disgrace, which one do you know?

Xiao Lin said: I don't have to understand anything, I just want to live well and live well. It doesn't matter if you say I'm a witch of the world, or that I'm a bone goblin.

Zhang Forest said: Pampered habits breed injustice!

Xiao Pearl said: Oh, don't talk back in front of the elders, you bumped into your uncle, and you don't have a good fruit to eat.

Uncle said: Blame me for having nothing to do, and send it to the door to bring shame on myself. I'm going to ask about your family again, I'm like Ouyang Feng walking upside down.

After his brother-in-law got into the car, Zhang Shulin crossed the crosswalk and returned to the alley, where he found a scrap-collecting pedal tricycle parked in front of his house, and the old man who received the goods was sleeping on his back on the car. Zhang Linlin knew that he was a delivery worker who assisted the tenant in moving, moving up and down, carrying a burden on his shoulders, and was exhausted, so he lay down on the car while he had no work, let the people around him come and go, noisy and noisy, and closed his eyes to rest for a while.

Fengqi Village is located in the center of the new urban area, the east is the county government compound and the county organs, the first middle school, the south is the financial commercial street, shopping center, building materials market, the west is the long-distance bus station, the urban bus station, the urban and rural bus station, the north is the Phoenix Industrial Park, these emerging buildings, high-rise buildings, the ancient decay of the natural village like dumplings are wrapped, the low and dilapidated houses in the village, not only like the soft dumpling filling, lying on the ground, but also like a gray patch on the bright coat. Due to the convenient transportation, low rent, and prosperity, Fengqi Village is crowded with migrant workers. Although there is a large flow of tenants, frequent moving, and a lot of work to transport goods, it is not possible to get work every day, and the elderly not only help move to make money, but also collect all kinds of old goods and waste.

The vehicle blocked the door, after all, it hindered the access, and the street slept on his back, after all, it was indecent, Zhang Shulin turned around and paced to the door, wanting to remind the old man to move the car, change to a secluded place, and continue to take a lunch break.

Zhang Shulin stopped at the back of the car, stretched out his hand and was about to wake up the old man, when he suddenly heard someone calling "Dad", he raised his eyes and saw Zhang Haichao squatting under the eaves of the main entrance and smoking a cigarette, and the cigarette butt was thrown to the ground.

Three days ago, Yuan's parents came to visit their grandson with gifts, a bag of snacks, a carton of milk, a few sets of new clothes, a Chinese cigarette, and two bottles of Moutai. When the guests entered the door at nine o'clock, Zhang Haichao also received them warmly, took the gifts from the trunk of the car, and then carried them into the house, and according to the instructions of his father-in-law, gave snacks, milk and clothes to his mother, and gave tobacco and alcohol to his father. Yuan Huanxuan took out his wallet, took five hundred yuan, and handed it to Zhang Haichao.

Zhang Haichao waved his hand and refused: "I'm ashamed! I don't have anything to honor you, so how can I still ask for you? You can keep it for yourself."

Yuan Huanxuan stuffed the money into Zhang Haichao's pocket: This is the pocket money that his grandfather gave to his grandson, it should be deserved, you can take it quickly. Mom is not at home, the child is so pitiful, and you still need to work hard!

Zhang Hai poured tea and smoked cigarettes. After a brief greeting, he went out to buy fish, meat, and pickled vegetables, and asked his father-in-law and mother-in-law to stay and have a light meal.

It was still early, and Yuan's mother took the child to the street to visit the park. Zhang Shulin accompanied Yuan Huanxuan to drink tea and chat in the living room, talking about the past and the present, anecdotes, shady official and businessmen, talking eloquently, very speculatively, and laughing from time to time.

Xiao Pearl was stir-frying and cooking in the kitchen, but she was not satisfied with anything, and began to cry and scold at ten o'clock. Yuan Huanxuan listened, his face was gloomy, his brows were furrowed, his face was gloomy, and he muttered: This dead wife, seeing that her grandson is more affectionate than the old man, I don't know if I came back earlier, did I forget to agree with the director of the transportation bureau to have lunch today?

Zhang Linlin felt embarrassed and went to persuade Xiao Zhuzhu: Entertaining guests, pay attention to your image, restrain your emotions, you have no sense of proportion, if it is passed on by relatives, I am afraid the impact will not be good!

The words became heavier, Xiao Pearl became more and more unhappy, lost her temper, threw her chopsticks, and dropped the lid of the pot: What does it mean to give money and things? Bullying can be done clearly, so why bother to play yin and slap your face? You are really powerful, and it is not a matter of words to help Hai Chao enter the county organs! I can't help anything, and I actually have the face to run to my house to show off blindly?

Zhang Linlin said: Are you unreasonable? Haichao is loyal and honest, has no education, and has no brains, don't you know? He has to be laid off as a worker, so how can he have the potential to be a cadre? Those with extraordinary qualifications in the chemical plant are first transferred to work and then transferred out, and before they enter the organs and organizations, they go to public institutions, who is laid off? You have a brain, and you don't know what to do or what to do!

Xiao Pearl said: I dislike my son for being stupid, and his daughter is extremely smart and clever in the world? Hmph, marrying into my family, is it hard to suffer losses? Abandoning his husband and children and ignoring his family, he only cares about his own happiness, so it proves that he has a good family education and good style?

Zhang Linlin said: It's good to be at home for a thousand days, it's difficult to go out, and working is a blessing, why don't your mother and daughter want to go? The son can't earn money, and the daughter-in-law goes out to earn money. I wish my daughter would be willing to earn money!

Xiao Pearl said: Is there any good thing about going south to work? Good people go out, bad people come back, and their reputations are ruined.

Zhang Forest said: I don't bother to pay attention to you when I play the piano to the cow, it's unreasonable. This meal, you can do it if you want to do it, and if you don't want to do it, you can get out, I invite my in-laws to the restaurant!

Xiao Pearl threw her hands away, went into the bedroom, lay on the bed, and pretended to be sick.

Zhang Forest went back to the living room and said to Yuan Huanxuan: I'm really sorry, my grandmother suddenly felt uncomfortable and couldn't cook, so I had to invite my in-laws to the restaurant to eat.

Yuan Huanxuan said: I have recklessly come to visit, I am abrupt, and I need to be treated with illness and grandma when I am involved, causing trouble, and disturbing me, I should apologize! Haichao doesn't know how to drive, does he have an A certificate, I asked the director of the transportation bureau to have dinner, I want him to drive a long-distance bus, and set up a luncheon today, so that his grandfather does not have to break the bank.

Zhang Linlin said: I have to rely on your help again, I'm sorry.

Yuan Huanxuan said: My own family, it should be. Be polite and see the outside,

Zhang Haichao bought snacks, happily walked into the backyard, and was about to send it to the kitchen, but heard his mother's crying and scolding. He knows that if one person is a couple, the whole family is unhappy, and the family has always been like this, as long as the mother is unhappy, it will make the father unhappy, and if the parents are unhappy, the whole family will not be happy. The family affairs were messy, and he felt shameless to face his father-in-law, so he hung his food on the bamboo pole under the eaves, and quietly became invisible.

Lunch was ready at twelve o'clock, everyone thought that Zhang Haichao was hiding in the room and sleeping lazy, calling him downstairs to eat, but no one answered, calling him, but he didn't answer, and sent someone to look for him, but he couldn't be seen anywhere.

Zhang Haichao did not return home for three consecutive days, looking for him in all directions, inquiring in all directions, but there was no news. Zhang Linlin was beating a drum in his heart, really doubting that he had also run away from home?

Accompanying his brother-in-law to eat at noon, Zhang Linlin lost his appetite, drank the wine until his mouth was bland, the food tasted in his stomach, he didn't eat a bite of food, he was hungry, but he was swollen and painful, and he was panicked. Everyone present saw that Zhang Forest was out of shape, raised a toast, raised his neck to drink, and drank dry in one go, not only lost the taste of tasting and talking, but also gave up the slow chewing Sven, the children took too many vegetables, he grabbed the chopsticks and threw them into the ditch, and the fierce appearance of the eyebrows and angry eyes scared the children to cry.

But Zhang Linlin's grief and indignation without tears were unknown, a glass of grain wine went down his throat, and he felt a cold breath seeping into his feet, and a wave of anger surged up his head, and the grief and indignation tortured him in two ways, alternating between cold and hot. This mother-daughter with a poisonous tongue is reckless at home, drives away Yuan Chunhua, beats him up, insults him endlessly, and forces Zhang Haichao away, who will be the next person to run away from home? Young people can't stand the bullying, can't afford to hide, break free from the chains of their homes and integrate into society, that is, the tiger returns to the mountains and the dragon enters the sea, and has the strength to achieve a career by ability. Only the pampered and spoiled children are afraid of hard work, like a released domestic bird, flying away and flying back, willing to be imprisoned for the rest of their lives, or like a birdfinch under the eaves, this old nest is destroyed, and the new nest will build that house, and it is inseparable from the eaves of people. The young man went to a high place, and he was left with an old man, what could he do? Stay with this mother and daughter, continue to be a bag of qi, and he will not be free until he dies. He knew the mother's and daughter's calculations, and he had already arranged a countermeasure, but the time had not yet come, and he had to keep it secret. As a parent, he didn't shoot the case on the spot and reprimand them angrily, not because he was afraid of them, but he didn't want to make noise in front of the guests. The fire in the chest can not be spoken, the heart is bitter, he borrows wine to drown his sorrows, and no one understands the sorrow, the wine becomes bitter water, and the vegetables become bitter gall, both hunger and cold, and grief and anger, but also frozen and burning, alternating between hot and cold, the whole body is like a pendulum shivering, a few glasses will be drunk, drunk will lead to singing, long songs should cry.

Zhang's house belongs to the front building and backyard style, with the main entrance facing the street and the side door facing the laneway. In the early nineties, it was still a village, belonging to Fengqi Village in Chengguan Town, and before the field was contracted to the household, it was one of the vegetable planting brigades in the village, commonly known as the "vegetable team", and the farmers were also called "vegetable farmers". Fengqi Village is located in the suburbs of the county, separated from the main urban area by two kilometers, the villagers rely on its geographical location close to the town, natural conditions, in the eighties has been from the traditional planting of rice, to engage in greenhouse vegetables, watermelon lotus planting, fruit flowers and trees planting, cage fish farming, livestock breeding and other economic production, is an important base of Longshan County "vegetable blue" project. In 93 years, Zhang Forest built his own house, still continuing the pattern of the farmer's yard, there is no front balcony in the building, there is no back balcony, there is no storage room, and study, there is no kitchen in the room, dining room, toilet, kitchen and toilet in the backyard, chicken coop and pigsty are also in the backyard, kitchen and dining room are combined into one, toilet and pigsty are also combined into one, and the chicken coop is a utility room.

The building has three floors, each floor is a large living room at the door, as big as the lobby of the hotel, can put ten tables of banquets, there are three straight barrel rooms on both sides of the living room, the room is extra-large, about 50 square meters, the total floor building area is close to 500 square meters, which is equivalent to the large workshop of a small factory. In such a spacious and spacious building, he merged the former backyard with the old house foundation, and divided the vegetable field outside the courtyard into one-third, adding it into a square and upright box shape. The remaining vegetable patch, undoubtedly, is the only arrangement of the backyard, the backyard is about 300 square meters, facing the building from three blue bricks and black tiles, the right hand is the kitchen, the left hand is the toilet, the chicken coop is in the center, and the room is equally spacious and spacious. Viewed from above, the house resembles a high-legged Taishi chair lying on its back facing the sky.

The house sits in the west and faces the east, and the main gate faces the street, implying that the purple air comes from the east, the heavens give the Yuanji, the Baotai is suitable, the long hair is auspicious, and the back Kun is hung up, and the good wishes of Zhang Forest to pray for auspiciousness and good wishes. The main entrance is opened in the hall on the first floor, the wall is connected with the street, but the door is set back two meters, the door is the same width as the hall, and the left and right walls are combined with the vacated two-meter ground to form a mouth shape, located in front of the door, that is, the "doorway" as the saying goes. The doorway is the aisle between going out and going home. There are lintels, plaques, brick carved bucket arches, and cornices on the door. The lintel is decorated with planed square bricks into gold threads, and the wall tiles on both sides are carved with people, birds, animals, flowers, pine and bamboo. In the middle of the plaque is written four seal characters "Dunhou Chongde". There are square drum stones standing on both sides of the door, squatting a stone lion on the drum, the left is a male lion, stepping on a hydrangea, symbolizing power, commonly known as "lion rolling hydrangea", the right is a lioness, a lion cub at the foot, meaning the prosperity of descendants, commonly known as "the lion and the young lion". Folklore has it that lions love to play with the "Pearl of the Night", so the stone lion has a round ball in his mouth that can rotate and will not fall. The base of the stone lion is a square drum stone, and the front is carved with bottles, plates, and tridents, symbolizing the "level promotion to the third level"; the right side is carved with peony, pine and cypress, symbolizing "wealth and Changchun"; the left side is carved with pen, ink, paper, and inkstone, symbolizing the "literary style"; and the back side is carved with the Bagua Taiji diagram, symbolizing "the demon town and the evil spirit". The lion is known as the "king of beasts", Zhang Forest replaced the door pier with a stone lion, and became a door guard beast on both sides of the gate, and the town house warded off evil spirits.

Keeping the "doorway", which is the living habit of the villagers, is a sign of the old tradition, is.

The difference between a Chinese-style house and a Western-style house. The newly built door stalls on both sides of the street, the door is level with the wall, not only the door is transparent glass, the window is also transparent glass, the door is open, the store door is wide open, the shop surface is horizontal, and the original shape is directly exposed in front of pedestrians. Traditional culture pays attention to subtlety, convergence, concealment, concealment, embodied in the building, it produces a unique "courtyard" style, which has been to welcome wealth and blessings, and give passers-by a place to shelter from the wind and rain.

Zhang Haichao squatted under the eaves of the main entrance, and if he didn't pass through the front door, he couldn't be seen. If it is not a festive season, or a wedding and birthday party, the main entrance will not be opened. At all times of the year, except for festive days, people enter and exit through the side doors. The side door faces the laneway, and the side door opens in the backyard. The kitchen-dining room is in the backyard, and Zhang and the guests walked out of the side door of the backyard, through the alley, and into the street. After waving goodbye, if Zhang Forest hadn't found that the rickshaw was blocked in front of the door, he wanted to remind the owner of the car that it would be impossible to see Zhang Haichao when he walked to the door.

Zhang Haichao disappeared at ten o'clock the day before yesterday, and it was not until fourteen o'clock today that Zhang Linlin was inadvertently found. He and the stone lion were companions, squatting in the corner with a sad face, smoking one cigarette after another, and the smoke in front of him was full, as if swallowing clouds and spitting out fog.

Zhang Linlin called softly: Tide, have you had lunch?

Zhang Haichao raised his head and grinned at his father. The smile was silent, but it was weird, he also squeezed his eyebrows, the muscles on his face twisted and jumped, and his smile became more and more perverted, looking very terrifying, which made Zhang Linlin creepy, and he didn't dare to look carefully.

Zhang Haichao squatted alone in a daze, occasionally raising his eyes to look at passers-by, his eyes full of confusion. Less than two meters from the front of the street, there is a frog-shaped garbage can, around which are scattered plastic bags, drink bottles, and fruit peels. After each pack of cigarettes, he crumpled the empty cigarette packets into paper balls, squinted, aimed at the trash can, and threw it like a blue ball.

Zhang Forest said: Come back to dinner with me, let's go!

Zhang Haichao shook his head and handed over a cigarette: I have no appetite! Alas, I am so full of anger that I can't swallow it if I want to.

Zhang Forest said: I didn't eat either, only drank a few glasses of wine. Otherwise, let's find a restaurant?

Zhang Haichao said: Hands-free, no mood!

The bustle is close at hand, and the bustle is just around the corner. The streets are full of cars, wheels rolling, horns honking, one after another, and the noise is noisy. There are many shops on both sides of the road, the flow of people is like weaving, bustling, the voices of people are boiling, lively and noisy. The father and son squatted under the eaves in front of their house and smoked, sighing and smiling bitterly at each other.

Zhang Linlin said: Good people have become bad eggs in the hearts of mothers and daughters. No wonder, of course, such a mother-in-law, sister-in-law, and daughter-in-law have to fly away, and it's not normal to fly away!

Zhang Haichao said: As the saying goes, the woman is in charge, the house collapses, the woman is in charge, and there are more bad things. I've broken up my wife, will your family be ruined?

Zhang Forest said: My wife and daughter are in trouble, I am careless, and I am ashamed of you!
