Part 1 Wolong Village Chapter 28 The Mind of the Golden Hammer
Ma Laoha's death had a great impact on the golden hammer, and these days, his heart has been pimpleed, and his grandfather has been gone like this in this life. I don't know what grandpa will feel like when he leaves. In Grandpa's life, this village is his whole world, born in this village, died in this village, and buried his bones in this village. For the world outside this village, I am afraid that it does not exist in Grandpa's consciousness at all. In grandpa's heart, in grandpa's life, there is only this village, only this home in the village. Because of his grandfather's hard work, this village supported his grandfather to live. But what did this family give to grandpa?
In the past few days after Ma Laoha's burial, Jin Hammer Niang seemed very filial, and did not forget to urge Jin Hammer Dad to send lamps to Ma Laoha according to the rules, should burn soup and soup, and send noodles to round graves, the whole set of procedures is very the same thing. In view of Jin Hammer Niang's dedication, no one will say that she was not filial when Ma Laoha was alive. In addition, her seven-foot-long white filial piety scarf is wrapped around her head all the time, and whenever someone says that Ma Laoha is mentioned, she will immediately cry with snot and tears, saying that Ma Laoha has suffered and suffered in this life and has not enjoyed any blessings from their family. Although the old and young masters in the village knew that she had no nose and no eyes all day long when Ma Laoha was alive, but at this time, although people understood that it was fake sadness like a cat crying a mouse, the soft-hearted mother-in-law would still be accompanied by her tears, saying that she had this filial piety, and Ma Laoha was also at ease underground. No matter how sad she was outside, but when she entered her yard, as soon as the courtyard door was closed, she yelled at Golden Hammer's father like a yaksha, and warned Golden Hammer not to associate with Golden Branches anymore, otherwise she would hang herself on a rope to show Golden Hammer. Although Jin Hammer Niang blocked Jin Hammer in this way of seeking death and life, Jin Hammer didn't say anything, but she didn't pay attention to her behavior in her heart.
"Don't talk to me pretending to be deaf and dumb, you're gone, the biggest thing in our family right now is you. Seeing that Jin Hammer didn't pay attention to what Jin Hammer said to her, Jin Hammer puffed out her nose and glared at Jin Hammer and shouted, "On the surface, you are silent, I know you are not convinced." ”
Jin Hammer just raised his eyes and glanced at his mother, but did not answer his mother's words.
"You, don't hug me a gourd without opening the scoop. If I hadn't been busy with your grandfather's funeral these past few days, I would have really had to talk to you. When this busy season has passed, I will talk to you again after burning five or seven pieces of paper for your master. Seeing that Golden Hammer looked at herself ignorantly, the Golden Hammer Niang immediately wrung out the water with a face, and glared at the Golden Hammer and shouted.
"Don't mention my grandfather!" Jin Hammer heard his mother talk about his grandfather's funeral, and immediately looked up at his mother, and said very dissatisfied, "My father is angry with you, and you are still as filial as you are." ”
"You, you, why did you kid say such a bad thing!" Seeing Jin Hammer exposing her shortcomings like this, Golden Hammer Niang immediately gritted her teeth and pointed at Jin Hammer and said, "If you kid says something without conscience, why did I make your master angry to death?"
"You know it yourself! You know how you treat my grandfather on weekdays!" Jin Hammer replied unabashedly, "My grandfather is dead, and you seem to be filial, and you cry and wipe your tears all day long." When my grandfather was alive, how did you treat my grandfather, not only you know it in your heart, but everyone in the village knows it!"
"You are saying something that has no conscience! You made it clear to me, when your father was alive, why did I neglect to see him, did he eat it shortly, or did he drink it short?" The words of the golden hammer were like a big hammer that was raised and smashed into the head of the golden hammer girl, which made the golden hammer Niangge stunned for a moment. It took her a long time to relieve, and she immediately shouted at the golden hammer angrily and asked, "Can you still let me cut the flesh on my body for him to eat?"
"You almost didn't cut the flesh on my grandfather's body! Why do you know best in your own heart when you don't see my grandfather, do you still use others to say it?" Jin Hammer saw that his mother was starting to play tricks, and pouted at his mother, and after speaking, he shook the door and walked out.
Jin Hammer Niang didn't expect that she would expose her son's shortcomings today, and she couldn't tell whether she was annoyed or wronged, and she had been worried about raising such a son who didn't know how to feel sorry for herself for nearly 20 years, and she also exposed her shortcomings to practice herself. She looked at the courtyard gate behind the golden hammer that shook the golden hammer with a bang, fluttered and jumped twice on the spot, and scolded at the courtyard gate that had already walked out: "You unconscionable seed, you know that you have trampled me! I knew that you were such a seed when you grew up, you should have clamped your legs and killed you, so as to save me from doing this now." ”
"I know, I said that my son can't be used to it, and you are still arguing with me. Ma Gong'er saw Jin Hammer Niang jumping in the yard and scolding Jin Hammer at the courtyard gate, and the atmosphere next to him didn't dare to breathe and muttered to Jin Hammer Niang.
Jin Hammer Niang has found a punching bag now, and it is a bad abuse to turn around and slash at the horse pole, so that the horse pole will no longer make a sound.
Jin Hammer walked out of the yard, and was bumped into Zhao Dacang, biting the old cigarette pouch in his mouth, dancing with a few neighbors under the old Tsubaki tree, and talking about a gelding of the gelding's dictatorship team - "That guy, the gelding's dictatorship team's knife is fast, just like the pig gelding, cut the man's egg pack on one side, squeeze it out, and then cut off the egg boy's tie." ”
At this time, Jin Hammer didn't have the heart to care about whether the rumors of Zhao Dacang were ridiculous, and bypassed Lao Chunshu, and he walked out of the walled gate. As soon as he walked out of the gate of the village, he felt a hurried footstep behind him catch up. At first, he thought that his mother had chased him out of the village, but after he turned around, he found that his judgment was wrong, and it was the money couple who caught up from behind him. Qian was holding some change of clothes in one hand, and the other hand was supporting the woman with a belly as big as a stone, and his mouth carefully urged the woman to be stable quickly. Jin Hammer knew that the dictatorship team of the geldings of Zhao Dacang's legend had arrived in the town of Donkey Duier, and in the past two days, a large number of cadres had mobilized men in the village to go to the Donkey Duier Hospital for ligation surgery. Jin Hammer also knew that in the past two days, many women with big bellies like the money woman in the village have escaped from the village, and they seem to have been very skillful in using "guerrilla tactics", and unanimously decided to wait for the child to be born before returning to the base of the village. Golden Hammer smiled at the two of them who had caught up, and said hello to them.
Qian also smiled at the golden hammer, and said as if laughing at himself: "Go out and hide for two days, she is about to give birth, and she will come back when the child is born." So saying, he turned back to the woman beside him, and staggered forward like a broken stone in a wheat field.
Jin Hammer looked at the figure of the two people with money, and didn't know what was going on with the people in the village, and the women were like robbing money to have children. Since I vaguely remember, in more than ten years, the population in this village seems to have increased by more than a generation, according to this growth rate, in a few years, this village will no longer be able to live so many people, I am afraid that the land of this village will not be able to fire the people in the village, at that time, what should be done in the village?
Although the new soil on Grandpa's grave has been exposed to the wind and sun these days, it still exudes the smell of that earth. The wisps of soul left on Grandpa's conjuring banner swayed back and forth with the waves of wheat blown by the wind. This is the final destination of a person's life, and when he enters this destination, he can no longer care about the gains and losses, honors and disgraces when he is alive, and he can no longer pay attention to the grievances and grievances when he is alive. Somehow, the golden hammer came to his grandfather's grave. He looked at his grandfather's grave, bit his lip and sighed, then took a cigarette out of his pocket and lit it with a fire that was not yet very sophisticated. Ever since his family objected to his association with Jin Zhi, he unknowingly became addicted to smoking. Although he had been smoking for a few days, many times he choked on the smoke in his throat and coughed with tears in his eyes, and the same is true today. After coughing for a while, he raised his face and looked at the sky above him, which had become a little muddy as if it had been pasted with a thin layer of rice. Just between his upturned face, he seemed to see his grandfather's hunched figure, as if he saw the grievances that his grandfather suffered at home when he was alive. In the winter of the previous year, my grandfather was cold, and his whole body burned as hot as a fire, and the whole lung tube seemed to be blocked by something, and it was snoring like pulling a bellows day and night, and my grandfather was so aggrieved that his face was as purple as a pig's liver. That's it, grandpa lay in that livestock shed for three days, and my mother didn't go over to take a look. I persuaded my grandfather to ask Mr. to take a look, but my grandfather said that people will be like this when they are old, and there is no need to spend that unjust money, and it will be fine in a few days. In the end, I went to the donkey pile and bought a few pieces of analgin for two cents, which stopped my grandfather's high fever. Thinking that the winter before last, Golden Hammer's eyes were wet, he raised his hand to wipe the tears that could not flow out of his eyes, lowered his head and looked at his grandfather's grave again, bit his lip and left.
The poplars on both sides of the San River did not seem to understand the mind of the Golden Hammer at this time, and when the Golden Hammer left his grandfather's grave and walked to the bank of the San River, the leaves of these poplars rattled in the gust of wind. The golden hammer couldn't help but look up at the leaves of these poplars, the dense leaves shimmering with a faint green light, and they jumped happily in the gusts of wind. In this way, he walked aimlessly along the San River, bypassing the small bridge that had been built many years ago, and before he knew it, he had reached the ruins of the grass temple where he had made a wish with Jin Zhi before. Now that her grandfather has passed away, Jin Zhi has also taken care of her family, and she seems to be alone in this village. He stood on the ruins of the Grass Temple for a moment, and then walked away in a restless mood.
This is the land where you were born and raised, this is the environment in which you grew up, if you live in this environment on this land, your fate will be the same as that of the vast majority of people in the village, and you will be like your grandfather, and finally leave this world silently. The golden hammer left the ruins of the Grass Temple and looked around at the wheat that could be harvested. The wheat around them tossed the ears that had turned yellow in the gusts of wind, and the rustling sound made people feel a kind of heavy abundance. This momentum of wheat is destined to be harvested in the afternoon season, and if there are no natural disasters in these days, the harvest in this afternoon season will not be bad. Although the wheat around him made people feel the thickness of the harvest, the golden hammer at this time did not feel any joy, and at this moment, he suddenly thought of the classmate on the donkey pile. After graduating from middle school, the classmate followed his family to do business in other places, just two years later, that classmate has been mixed with people's eyes, a few days ago came back from the field, riding an ocean donkey on the donkey pile of the market, that scenery, among the classmates estimated that no one can catch up. If, according to that classmate, the money he earns in a day can buy a year's harvest on an acre of land. In this way, his annual income alone can catch up with the harvest of half of the people in the village in a busy year. But in the two years since I graduated, I have been guarding this stockade, still holding empty fists with both hands, except for ten fingers, there is nothing. Although I have been depicting a very bright prospect for myself in my heart for the past two years, if I have been staying in this village, those brilliant prospects will become an illusion of self-deception. I also believe that in this village, I can use my own hands and the knowledge I learned in school to develop a side business and change the status quo like a half-hanger, but this family has been stumbling tightly on itself and letting myself have nothing to do. Could it be that he left this home, this village, and this land earlier? He couldn't help but ask himself in his heart. Leaving this home, leaving this village, leaving this land, you don't want to escape anything, but you want to prove something to this home, to this village, to this land in your own way. It seemed that he felt that he should do this, or he would really be like the vast majority of people in the village in this life!
The golden hammer glanced at the wheat that seemed to be dancing in the wind, and suddenly felt that the blood on his whole body was gushing, and he suddenly felt that there was a lot of strength in his whole body.
