Part 1 Wolong Village Chapter 11 Zhao Liuyou's heartache

Since the family surnamed Zhao moved into this village, although the people are prosperous, they have never produced a decent character, although later they relied on the strength of the people to join forces with the Zhang family to share the ownership of this village from the hands of the family surnamed Ma. Once, their Zhao family discussed finding a feng shui master to look at the ancestral tomb for a few twists and turns, trying to ask the feng shui master to find a treasure land with both feng shui and then move the ancestral tomb over. The old feng shui gentleman looked at all the fields in Wolong Village, shook his head and told the people surnamed Zhao, saying that there is no feng shui treasure land in Wolong Village where there are people and officials who want officials, either prosperous people or prosperous officials, and the feng shui of prosperous people cannot produce officials, and the feng shui of prosperous officials is defeated. The family surnamed Zhao listened to Mr. Feng Shui's words, and pondered that even if there was a powerful official, the entire family surnamed Zhao would slowly fall into ruin, so they gave up the idea of moving the ancestral grave. In this way, in this village, the people surnamed Zhao have maintained the same growth momentum as crops with sufficient water and fertilizer, and they are luxuriant. Although the people surnamed Zhao are prosperous, most of them are dull and solid characters. However, when it came to Zhao Liuyou's stubble, it seemed that the minds of the people surnamed Zhao had gone around a little, although they were all a little toss, but after all, it was a sign of enlightenment, a kind of turning point. This kind of sign made many people in the village talk that it may not be a good sign, of course Zhao Liuyou also heard such a discussion, but he didn't believe it, just take the family surnamed Huang as an example, that Zhang Daxian also said that the family surnamed Huang is out of business, not only is the family out of business, but the family is more prosperous than the ancestors. The ancestors of the people surnamed Zhao have not been able to produce characters who dare to fight, and it is also a regrettable thing for the people surnamed Zhao. At the moment, I am making a lot of noise in this village, but compared to the people surnamed Huang, it is definitely nothing. I don't have much to jump in my life, I was still counting on my sons to be able to have a little bit of interest in the future, look at my sons, they are all the masters who eat big meat and have diarrhea, one by one, I only know that I am not hungry when I am full, and it is not any material.

Since Huang Sen returned to this village, these days, Zhao Liuyou's heart has been like this, and he always feels a grievance that he wants to cry but can't cry. Look at the ways of his past, the old and young masters in the whole village are dodging themselves like night owls entering the house, although the days are more spacious than those of the old and young masters, but it is not a tune!

After lunch for a while, when Zhao Liuyou was standing in his yard like this, neither sitting nor thinking about himself, Ma Laoha's eldest grandson Jin Hammer broke into his yard in a panic, and pointed to him breathlessly in the direction of the San River and said that Zhao Dashan was drinking rat poison on the bank of the San River.

Zhao Liuyou felt a sigh in his heart, he never dreamed that Zhao Dashan would find a short, without saying a word, he dragged his rack car and rushed out of the yard and ran towards the bank of the Sang River.

The golden hammer also followed to the bank of the San River.

As soon as Zhao Liuyou and Jin Hammer came out of the village, they bumped into Qian and Yinqian head-on, and the two brothers came back from the field carrying the guys. Zhao Liuyou couldn't help the two sons to say anything, and shouted at the top of his voice to let the money and silver go with him.

I didn't know what was going on with the money and the money, so I threw down the guy in my hand and ran after my father.

"Dad, what's going on?" Qian Qian caught up with Zhao Liuyou and asked nervously.

"The golden hammer said that Zhao Dashan drank rat poison on the bank of the Mulberry River!" Zhao Liuyou replied with a word of money.

Qian turned his face to look at the golden hammer, gasped and asked, "How long have you been drinking?"

"I had just drunk a short time, and I went to play on the bank of the San River, and saw him covering something in his mouth. At his feet, there were several kits of rat poison. I knew it was bad, so I hurried back to report it. Jin Hammer gasped even more unevenly at this time, panting with his mouth open, and returned the money one by one.

Zhao Liuyou and their grandfather and son seemed to be relieved when they heard that Zhao Dashan had just drunk rat poison, but their steps were faster. When they arrived on the bank of the Sang River, Zhao Dashan was facing the Mulberry River and cried softly. Before Zhao Dashan could find out, he gave Qian and Yinqian brothers to the rack car.

Zhao Liuyou saw that the money and silver money had put Zhao Dashan on the rack car, and immediately pulled up the rack car and flew to the hospital in the town, the faster his steps were slowed, the more heavy his heart became. The heavier the heart, the tighter the footsteps. He knew in his heart that the most unbearable thing in his life was him Zhao Dashan. If he hadn't brought so many disasters to Zhao Dashan like a hero, I'm afraid Zhao Dashan would not have fallen to the point where he is today, and it would be impossible for him to come to the bank of the Sang River alone today to drink this deadly rat poison. Although this person can't turn back the road he has walked, he can't erase what he owes him in his heart!

At that time in the 63rd year, the whole country was engaged in the "four qing", just in time to catch up with Zhao Liuyou's age of prosperity, after the mobilization of the comrades of the working group above, he suddenly had a fever all over his body, his heart was hot, and he rubbed his hands, and followed the comrades of the working group to find out Ma Guohai and Ma Guohai's father and son, and then found out Ma Guoshan and Ma Lao. At the end, that is, the night when Zhao Dashan sighed, he and the comrades of the working group found out Zhao Dashan again. Especially when he found out Zhao Dashan, he felt that Zhao Dashan's doing this was an insult to the innocent family of the Zhao family, and even more insulted him Zhao Liuyou, a young man with a full stomach of enthusiasm, and immediately he asked Ma Lao to shave Zhao Dashan dryly, shaving an old turtle like a flying edge, not yin or yang, a hole on the top and a strange head shape under the open, pushing and shoving to let Zhao Dashan swim the entire village, and then a rope tied Zhao Dashan's hands, and dragged Zhao Dashan to the people's commune. The leaders above saw him Zhao Liyou treating Zhao Dashan like this, praised him and said that Zhao Liyou had a clear class position and could kill his relatives in righteousness, and then awarded him Zhao Liyou a small red flag embroidered with gold edges. Zhao Liuyou held this little red red flag in both hands, and returned to the village all the way like a cloud, and then the little red flag was very solemnly hung in the center of the back wall of the hall, and arranged for the new daughter-in-law who had just married to often use a feather duster to wipe the dust that fell on it, so as to make this little red flag bright at all times. After that, he looked at the little red flag very proudly, and then enthusiastically followed the comrades of the working group from east village to west village. As soon as the great "Cultural Revolution" movement arrived, he put a red armband on his arm again, and took Zhao Dashan to shoot again. In those years, he was very beautiful, and whoever was stabbed with a dictatorship stick in his hand would not be able to live in peace. Later, a "spring thunder" exploded in October, which also frightened him Zhao Liuyou to hide in Tibet and did not dare to show his face, but the old and young masters in the village did not pull him out like he did back then. It may be because of his age, these days he Zhao Liuyou will think of those things in the past, although those things in the past will make him dizzy and cramping in retrospect, although he is not willing to recall those things, but those things are always dangling in front of his face, shaking so that he can't live in peace, after all, he Zhao Liuyou can't stand the old and young masters in the village.

Zhao Liuyou ran profusely and rushed to the hospital in the town, and after a busy period of the husband in the hospital, Zhao Dashan poured two buckets of soapy water back and forth into his stomach, making Zhao Dashan vomit several times before saving Zhao Dashan's life.

Zhao Dashan was out of danger, and Zhao Liuyou's heart fell into his stomach. He let out a breath steadily, lit a cigarette, took a few puffs steadily, and then waited for Zhao Dashan in the hospital with money, and then returned to the village with the silver money and the golden hammer.

After returning to the village, Zhao Liuyou prepared some items for hospitalization, and sent the money to the hospital.

"Hey, too, this Zhao Dashan ......" Zhao Liuyou's woman saw that the money was sent to Zhao Liuyou, and sighed beside her, wanting to say something, but she blocked Zhao Liuyou halfway through the words.

"You, don't be verbose!" Zhao Liuyou glanced at the woman, and then went straight out.

The wheat in the field is raising flowers, giving a light on the day when the mountain is about to set, and the hazy seems to be covered with a thin transparent golden veil. When the wind blows, the fragrance of wheat blossoms is everywhere. Smelling the fragrance of wheat flowers, listening to the sound of the wheat blowing in the breeze, and watching the black and swarthy growth of his own wheat, which is half a foot higher than other people's wheat, as the breeze rolls in front of his eyes wave after wave, Zhao Liuyou breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. If it was in previous years, at this time, his heart would be moisturized as if he had drunk two taels of old white dry. But at this time today, his heart can't be relaxed, and he can't moisturize, Zhao Dashan is always dangling in front of him in front of the doctor in the hospital tossing and filling the tube into his stomach, and to put it mildly, Zhao Dashan has fallen to this point because of his own years of harm.

Zhao Liuyou walked a few of his own wheat fields, and the wheat in each field grew much better than other people's, but he still felt panicked. At this time, he saw from a distance the in-laws Zhang Lao Donkey in the back village coming to him out of nowhere, and he greeted Zhang Lao Donkey.

When Zhang Lao Donkey heard Zhao Liuyou's greeting, he hurriedly ran over as if he had received a holy decree, and shouted to his in-laws with a smile on his face: "My in-laws have come to see your wheat today? Look at the wheat stalks, they are as thick as your fingers. Look at the ears of wheat again, they grow in one stroke. As far as the growth of this wheat is concerned, one acre of land can be worth two acres of other people's land, and this year's noon season, it is estimated that the yield of one acre of land will be 800 catties. What's the name of that grandson of Ma Laoha? Golden Hammer, right? After two days of studying in the West and drinking ink for a few days, I thought I was terrible, and who I talked to was what kind of science. What is science, planting more manure and more seeds is science. You see your wheat, I have seen it all from plot to plot, and it is all growing like this. He came to Zhao Liuyou's face, pointed to the wheat field in front of Zhao Liuyou, pouted and nodded.

Zhao Liuyou smiled at Zhang Lao Donkey, which was regarded as a reply to Zhang Lao Donkey's words.

Zhang Lao Donkey looked at Zhao Liuyou, frowned, pondered for a while, and asked, "What's the matter today, in-laws?"

Zhao Liuyou glanced at Zhang Lao Donkey, bit his lip, shook his head, and said with a wry smile: "No, Zhao Dashan drank rat poison to find a short, thanks to the golden hammer, the eldest grandson of Ma Laoha, I sent him to the hospital." ”

"Are you alright?" asked Old Donkey Zhang's eyes widened.

Zhao Liuyou shook his head and said, "It's okay, thanks to the timely delivery." ”

"It's okay, this old bachelor, it's going to be a busy season soon, why add such trouble at this time. Zhang Lao Donkey followed Zhao Liuyou's words and complained, "It's true, this old bachelor still thinks that he has lived in this world for a long time!

Zhao Liuyou sighed, turned around and asked Zhang Lao Donkey, "Are you free tonight?"

"I'm fine. If you have something to ask me to help with, just say it. Zhang Lao Donkey looked at Zhao Liuyou, and his two brows frowned.

"Drink two cups with me in the evening. Zhao Liuyou said, "This is so aggrieved and panicked." ”

"Cheng, Cheng, that Cheng!" As soon as Zhang Lao Donkey heard that Zhao Liuyou wanted him to drink, he immediately nodded and agreed, "What grievances do you have in your heart? In the past few years, you have been enough for Zhao Dashan, an old bachelor, even if there was a place where he couldn't live with him before, then you can make up for it." ”

Zhao Liuyou shook his head and did not speak.

"In-laws, don't think so much. Seeing that Zhao Liuyou didn't speak, Zhang Lao Donkey persuaded beside him, "This person, what should he do for the rest of his life, it's all fate." You can't stop what you should have in your life. What you don't have in your life, even if you ask for it, you can't ask for it. He is an old bachelor like this in his life, and it is also fate. ”

"Probably. Zhao Liuyou smiled without saying anything.

"In-laws," Zhang Lao Donkey looked at Zhao Liuyou and said with a smile, "Don't take this matter too seriously." Even if it's for you, it's still the same thing. ”

Zhao Liuyou smiled, glanced at Zhang Lao Donkey, and said, "Let's go, let's let Qian fry two dishes, and let's drink a few cups of it today." With that, he lifted his leg and walked back.

When Zhang Lao Donkey saw that Zhao Liuyou had returned in front, he immediately followed closely and caught up with Zhao Liuyou.

After Zhao Liyou's woman left home, she felt aggrieved for a while. Over the years, he Zhao Liuyou rarely asked her to say a complete sentence, but now I wanted to persuade him to say two sentences, and he blocked the words into his throat as if he was setting off a cannon fight. However, over the years, she has also gotten used to gagging Zhao Liuyou like this, and soon she was busy with housework as if she had nothing to do. When Zhao Liuyou and Zhang Lao Donkey entered the yard, she struggled to clean up and prepare dinner for the evening.

After Zhao Liuyou entered the courtyard, he beckoned the woman to prepare two dishes for drinking, and let Zhang Lao Donkey enter the house with him. Zhao Liuyou's house is more advanced than other families in the village, although the lighting is still kerosene lamps, but his house is a table lamp with a hood, which is much brighter than any other's kerosene lamp. After Zhao Liuyou entered the room, he first lit the lamp on the table on the back wall of the door, and then dragged a stool over and asked Zhang Lao Donkey to sit down.

Zhang Lao Donkey squinted his eyes and looked at the lamp of Zhao Liuyou's house for a while, smacked his lips, shook his head and said: "You say, this is also strange, it is also a kerosene lamp, why is it that this lamp is covered with a glass cover, it looks much brighter? ”

Zhao Liuyou shook his head and smiled, and said, "We can't figure this out, why is there an extra smoking bottle on the lamp head, and then this glass cover is covered, it will be extraordinarily bright?"

"This man is capable. Zhang Lao Donkey smiled and nodded puzzled.

Zhao Liuyou's woman first cooked a few salted duck eggs for Zhao Liuyou and Zhang Lao Donkey in the kitchen, cut them into sprouts and put them on a plate, and then served them to let Zhao Liuyou and Zhang Lao Donkey eat and drink first, and soon she fried a plate of eggs in the kitchen, so that the two drinks and dishes could also deal with it, so that Zhao Liuyou and Zhang Lao Donkey could make do with it for a while.

Zhang Lao Donkey accompanied Zhao Liyou to drink a few glasses of wine, and looked at Zhao Liyou for a while, feeling very confused. On weekdays, when the two of them have the opportunity to sit together and drink, Zhao Liuyou drinks very little, but he always talks to him like a leader about the outside world and the children of the two families. Today, he drank a lot of oil and wine, and he didn't talk anymore. Even if the old bachelor Zhao Dashan drank rat poison to seek death, it would not let him Zhao Liuyou be like this? His old bachelor Zhao Dashan was just a relationship between the masters of his Zhao Liuyou clan, and when it came to them, there were no blood relatives. He Zhao Liuyou can send his old bachelor Zhao Dashan to the hospital for rescue without his life, that is also his Zhao Liuyou exhausted the affection between the fathers, even if he stands in front of his ancestors in the future, there is nothing to feel sorry for. Could it be that he Zhao Liuyou has something else in his heart today, so that he has no heart on weekdays?

"In-laws, we are relatives, we can't talk far from neighbors, I feel troubled for a while!" Zhao Liuyou drank a cup of wine alone, then poured the empty wine cup full of wine, and looked up at Zhang Lao Donkey. I sighed heartwarmingly.

"What's wrong?" Zhang Lao Donkey made a glare at Zhao Liuyou's words, and he frowned and looked at Zhao Liuyou and asked.

"It's okay, I just feel upset. Zhao Liuyou shook his head and said.

"What's wrong, what are you messing about?" Zhang Lao Donkey still couldn't understand and glared at Zhao Liuyou, "In our village, who else can compare with your in-laws, why do you feel troubled for no reason? If you feel troublesome, don't live in other people's lives." ”

Zhao Liuyou shook his head, picked up the wine cup in front of him, and drank the cup with a grunt.

Zhang Lao Donkey looked at Zhao Liuyou, his two eyebrows were twisted like eggs, and he couldn't erase Zhao Liuyou's heart.

"Thinking about it all these years, it's not a tune. Zhao Liuyou put the empty wine cup on the table in front of him, sighed and said, "When I was young, I didn't care about it, and I caught and bit everyone like a mad dog." This person is old, and some things from the past will always go back and forth in his head. Now that Zhao Dashan is drinking rat poison like this to find a short-term view, my heart is even more uncomfortable. If it weren't for me, he Zhao Dashan would not have reached this point today. ”

"My family, the previous things have also passed, Chen Sesame and rotten grain, what do you want to do with that? Besides, it used to be the world, and it wasn't your business alone. Didn't he, Zhao Dashan, also shout at the beginning, 'Do more effort, sweat more, and strive for the donkey to lay eggs as soon as possible'? Zhang Lao Donkey picked up a cup of wine, looked at Zhao Liuyou and said.

Zhao Liuyou shook his head and said in a deep voice: "That being said, that world is not anyone's business, but it shouldn't be, I shouldn't go to Zhao Dashan to criticize him!"

"In that world, my father and mother are not affectionate, not to mention that you and Zhao Dashan are just children of the same clan. Zhang Lao Donkey squeaked and drank the wine in the cup, holding the empty wine cup in his hand and said, "Besides, you have not been thin on him Zhao Dashan over the years, and you can be worthy of him Zhao Dashan." As he spoke, he placed the empty cup in his hand on the table.

Zhao Liuyou poured wine on Zhang Lao Donkey's empty cup, gave Zhang Lao Donkey a cigarette, and lit one himself.

"In-laws, even if you can't let go of it in your heart, what can you do?" Zhang Lao Donkey looked at Zhao Liuyou.

"It's not just about him Zhao Dashan today, I've always felt that it's not a taste in my heart during this time, and I always feel unsteady. Zhao Liuyou added some wine to the wine jug, looked up at Zhang Lao Donkey and said.

Zhang Lao Donkey frowned when he said this, and said very puzzledly: "Who else in our village can compare with your in-laws? Why do you feel unsteady in your heart for a while?"

"Yes, in this village, no one can close our house at the moment. But you can see that no, in the future, Hu Dashun will slowly become a top man in our village. You see, he knows that he has made money by tossing large-scale chicken raising, and after a few years of tossing like this, he can still get it half-baked!" Zhao Liuyou pondered.

Hearing the name of the half-hung Hu Dashun, Zhang Lao Donkey felt uncomfortable in his heart, although he often went to the big lock to mess with the woman of the big lock, after all, the half-hung Hu Dashun slept with his woman. However, today it was Zhao Liuyou who mentioned the stubble of Hu Dashun, who was half-hanging, and he couldn't say anything else, so he could only pinch his nose and eat green onions.

"In the past few years, I have made a little money by buying and selling livestock in the east and west, but sometimes I lose my eyes and lose money. Even if you can't look away, a livestock, go to forage or something, there are few people who make money. Zhao Liuyou picked up the wine cup, looked at Zhang Lao Donkey and said, "Out of this village, what am I Zhao Liuyou? ”

"What's the matter?" asked Zhang Lao Donkey immediately.

"Have you ever been on a train?" Zhao Liuyou stared at Zhang Lao Donkey, and blinked his already stiff eyelids a few times at the old white gan in He Jin's stomach.

Zhang Lao Donkey Huang hurriedly shook his head and said, "No, no." Just seen it from the movies. ”

Zhao Liuyou shook his head and smiled bitterly, looked at Zhang Lao Donkey and said, "Don't say it, drink!"

Zhang Lao Donkey was stunned when he said this to Zhao Liuyou, but he still picked up the wine cup with Zhao Liuyou.

Zhao Liuyou drank a few cups in a row like drinking sugar water, and the money lady who brought the vegetables into the house looked at Zhao Liuyou, stared at Zhao Liuyou in a daze, and then at Zhang Lao Donkey, and asked, "What's wrong?"

"I didn't ...... What's the matter!" Zhao Liuyou glanced back at the woman, picked up the wine jug at once, and poured the spout of the wine jug into his mouth with a clatter.

Zhang Lao Donkey hurriedly stepped forward and snatched the wine jug from Zhao Liuyou's hand, looked at Zhao Liuyou and said, "What's wrong with you!"

"It's okay, I just feel aggrieved in my heart!" Zhao Liuyou said, tears actually flowed from the corners of his eyes.

Zhang Lao Donkey looked at Zhao Liuyou, turned around and looked at Zhao Liuyou's woman, and suddenly didn't know what to do.

Zhao Liuyou's woman hurriedly put the plate in her hand on the table, and asked Zhang Lao Donkey what was wrong with her hands in front of her.

Zhang Lao Donkey shook his head at Zhao Liu's woman and said, "I don't know, I don't know what happened to him today." Listening to him, it seems that there is something else in his heart, and I can't understand it. ”

Zhao Liuyou suddenly grabbed the wine jug that Zhang Lao Donkey put on the table, tilted his neck, and all the remaining wine in the wine jug went into his mouth along the spout of the wine jug.

Zhang Lao Donkey and Qian Niang just watched in a daze from the side, neither of them took the wine pot in Zhao Liuyou's hand again, and none of them knew what Zhao Liuyou's heart was.
