Qiaozhen's parents and eldest daughter all died in the flood. When Qiaozhen's grandfather and Granny learned that their family had been flooded, they hurried to their home, and when they returned to the village, they saw that the original village was gone, not a single house was gone, and the whole village had turned into a sea of yellow.
Qiaozhen's grandfather, "Grandma", "Milk", knelt on the edge of the flood, crying, crying. But there was nothing but the "booming" roar of the flood. It took three days and three nights for the flood to recede.
When the flood waters receded, the entire village was reduced to ruins and mud. The remains of the collapsed houses are like mounds of wild graves with seven heights and eight lows, and the miscellaneous wood and rubble of the collapsed houses are horizontal and vertical, and they are in a mess.
The surviving family members wept and rummaged through the rubble looking for their loved ones.
Qiaozhen's grandfather, "Grandma", "Milk", also cried and joined the ranks of searching for his family in the ruins. Because the original houses no longer exist, no one knows which part is their own home, but they can only roughly guess a direction according to the terrain to find it.
When some of them found it, they immediately fell on their relatives and wept bitterly! Those who died had become clay figures, and they had to be turned over and repeatedly identified before they could be recognized.
Some limbs were also smashed and separated, and the arms could not be found. People were digging through the rubble for bricks, stones, and dirt, and if they found a body, everyone ran to identify it.
But Qiaozhen's grandfather didn't find his parents and daughter, so the others who didn't find their relatives followed the mud trails downstream to look for them.
Finally, in the mud by the river more than ten miles away from the village, the bodies of Qiaozhen's grandfather's parents and daughter were found successively.
Qiaozhen's grandfather "milk" and "milk" buried their relatives with tears, and followed Qiaozhen's father to escape all the way to Huangling Village.
Qiaozhen's grandfather's "Grandma" and "Milk" deeply felt the harm of the flood, so he thought that he must find a place to live on high ground, far away from the flood beasts.
So Qiaozhen's grandfather begged for food in Huangling Village, and at the same time looked for a place to stay in the mountains near Huangling Village.
At this time, a kind person in Huangling Village pointed out to Qiaozhen's grandfather that there was a mountain called Lion's Brain ten miles away from Huangling Village. The lion's brain is relatively high, but the ground above it is flat, and there is a large pond in which there are frogs, kings, toads and other animals. It is said that during the Anti-Japanese War, the people of the village once escaped the war on that mountain, and people once dug a well in the mountain in order to find water to drink. There was water in that place, and after digging not much deeper, the water was dug out. He also said that the well is still there, but no one uses it, and people are throwing stones into it, and it is almost filled.
Qiaozhen's grandfather was very happy when he heard this, so he led Qiaozhen's "milk" and "milk" to climb onto the lion's brain according to the route pointed out by the well-wisher.
The two men climbed to the top of the hill and looked full of joy. Because Grandpa Qiaozhen, "Milk" and "Milk" are southerners who have never climbed such a high mountain, they are very excited after climbing up, and they see the beautiful scenery on the mountain, the fresh air, the surrounding mountains and forests, and the flat terrain in the middle. It feels like it's a very good place to live and live.
Grandpa Qiaozhen searched for the pond and well around as the well-wisher said, and sure enough, he found them.
Grandpa Qiaozhen and "Grandma" decided to build a house here and reclaim the land to live for a long time.
Qiaozhen's grandfather was a carpenter, so he used local materials, first built a simple house, and then picked wild fruits and vegetables on the mountains to satisfy his hunger, while cultivating the land.
In the dark of night, wild boars often come from the mountains to gnaw at their doors, and wolves and leopards scratch their windows, which frightens their family of three to scream in surprise!
Later, as soon as night came, they lit a bonfire in the courtyard to frighten the wild beasts. Later, Qiaozhen's grandfather raised a few dogs. Animals come less often.
In the autumn of the first year, Qiaozhen's grandfather planted corn, beans, millet, wheat, potatoes, and radishes had a bumper harvest!
Grandpa Qiaozhen's family was very happy, so they went down the mountain to invite a kind person to their home and entertained them. Thank you to this kind person for your guidance.
Later, Qiaozhen's grandfather hired someone to drag up the bricks and tiles with a "wool" donkey at the bottom of the mountain, built a brand-new brick house, and built a string of yards. The courtyard was paved with bluestone slabs from the mountain, flat and smooth. It's just that it's snowing and it's a little slippery in winter.
Qiaozhen's father grew up and married a girl from a neighboring village, giving birth to Qiaozhen's brother and Qiaozhen's brother and sister. Qiaozhen went to Huangling Village to study when she grew up, and Tie Dan was in the same class, the two were very friendly at school, and gradually fell in love when they grew up, and the two got married and started a family.
Qiaozhen's family lived and lived in the mountains and never left, and later came to two families to discuss with Qiaozhen's grandfather that they wanted to come to the mountain to take neighbors, and Qiaozhen's grandfather welcomed it very much, so two more families were added to become the Zhuangzi of three families.
The two new tenants began to reclaim new land, so the land was expanded a lot.
Then each family planted their own land, and they could harvest a lot of grain every year. Later, the Wild Grass Commune instructed the Huangling Village Brigade to take charge of this lion's brain Zhuangzi, and Wang Jicai began to collect public grain from them, and every year they had to walk ten miles with their pockets to pay public grain to the bottom of the mountain.
But after all, it was on a high mountain, and the people of Huangling Village didn't bother to climb ten miles to check, so the grain left after paying the public grain every year was enough for them to eat for a year. Therefore, they have never run out of food, so naturally they do not have to eat wild vegetables and go hungry.
Therefore, every year in Huangling Village, when the green and yellow do not receive the grain season, Qiaozhen leads the three children back to their parents' house to eat their parents' grain.
Therefore, whenever they were hungry, the three children of Tie Dan shouted that they wanted to go to their grandmother's house to eat pancakes, cornmeal cat ears, cornmeal steamed buns, baked cakes and other delicious food.
Qiaozhen gave Tie Dan an idea and said: "You pick a basket, one end bears a small one, I will pull a big one, send it to his grandmother's house, stay for two days, and you can also leave two days to fill your stomach!"
Of course, Tie Dan was very happy, so he prepared the basket and prepared the children's replacement clothes, and carried two and pulled one, and the family of five went up the mountain in a mighty way.
Qiaozhen went back to her parents' house for a month or two, and when it was time to leave, Tie Dan picked up the basket again. Tie Dan can also live in his mother-in-law's house for two or three more days to improve his life.
And the five members of the Tie Dan family, in addition to eating and drinking with these four mouths for a month or two, when leaving, Qiaozhen's mother had to quietly stuff a lot of delicious food, as well as rice and noodles.
So the family of five returned from the lion's brain.
In addition to what they ate in the mountains, they brought back dry food, rice and noodles with some wild vegetables, and they could eat for a month, so that they could cope with the annual food shortage season.
However, later Qiaozhen's brother also married and married a fat girl in Bird's Egg Valley. Since this fat girl entered the door, she has regarded herself as a woman, and she has to be the master of everything, make decisions, and be in charge of the store.
Qiaozhen's parents are getting older. In order not to be angry, the family made do.
But Qiaozhen found that as soon as she took the children back to her parents' house, her fat sister-in-law hit the dishes and broke the bowl to show Qiaozhen her face!
Qiaozhen's parents saw it in their eyes and felt very sad.
Qiaozhen also quietly cried on the side, but for the sake of the children, there was really no way, the children would have to go hungry when they went back, and it was time for them to grow their bodies.
Qiaozhen worked desperately at home, in exchange for a little kindness from the fat sister-in-law, so that the children could stay for two more days.
However, it's okay to have a shorter time, but after a long time, the sister-in-law is not the same as her parents and brother, and her father, mother and brother don't care when they see her. But this sister-in-law is an outsider, she thinks that Qiaozhen is leading three children, and a family of four will eat their family poor. And he tried to drive them away.
At first, Qiaozhen's brother also objected to Qiaozhen's sister-in-law's approach and comforted Qiaozhen. But until an incident happened, Qiaozhen could no longer lead the child to the door of her parents' house.
It was lunch time one day, Qiaozhen's father and brother had come back from the field, Qiaozhen also helped to make lunch, and the family was sitting together for lunch.
Qiaozhen first served her sister-in-law's rice, then served it to her parents and brother, and finally served a bowl of rice to each of her three children.
Qiaozhen's brother couldn't help it, so he waved his hand and gave a slap, and Qiaozhen's sister-in-law overturned the dining table and shouted, "No one needs to eat!"
My brother and her sister-in-law got into a fight!
Qiaozhen packed up her things and led the three children down the mountain crying.
The three children saw their mother crying on the road, and they cried with their mother, but they didn't know why their mother was crying.
An older son saw that his mother stopped crying, and asked curiously, "Mom, why did my aunt overturn the dinner table? What a pity that so much rice was spilled on the floor!"
The younger one was a girl, with two pigtails, and when she saw that her mother was no longer crying, she wiped her red eyes from crying, and listened to her brother ask her mother, so she also "plugged in" and asked, "Yes, mother! I haven't finished my meal yet?" Don't you always tell us that you are not allowed to have leftovers, so why did you take away my rice bowl before I finished eating?"
Qiaozhen bent down to look at the three poor children, and listened to every word they said, and her heart felt as uncomfortable as a knife!
Then the two children saw that their mother was crying again, and they began to cry again!
The boy doll cried and said, "Mom, why are you crying again? Did we say the wrong thing?"
The girl doll also cried and said, "Mom, I'm sorry! I don't blame you for taking my job, I won't eat ......."
