Chapter 11: The Whole Man (2)
The small dirt slope next to the village is located next to the path into the mountain, because there are always some wild beasts on the mountain, parents do not allow children to enter the mountain, but this small dirt slope is still some way from entering the mountain, so parents do not prohibit children from playing here.
After arriving at the breakthrough, the children sat down and formed a circle. Then each put the food they brought in the center, and when the last person put down the food in his hand, the atmosphere was a little awkward. Everyone look at me, I look at you, obviously this is the first time to do this kind of thing, and I don't know what to do next. In the end, everyone still turned their attention to Wen Anze, the planner of this 'tea party', hoping that he would make some suggestions.
Wen Anze obviously didn't expect things to turn out like this, so under the attention of everyone, he stood up slowly with Wen An'an in his arms, and thought for a while before saying: "It's a pity that no one brings the wine at home, otherwise we can learn from adults to talk about wine." However, everyone is still open to eat, and you must have a good time" After speaking, he bent down to take a piece of rice cake, and took a bite of it that he thought was very heroic.
I have to say that every child has a heroic dream, and every child likes to imitate the way adults do things, so Wen Anze's heroic and heroic adult-style 'mobilization' inadvertently aroused the children's high emotions, and everyone also became active, grabbed the food in the oil paper, and laughed and ate.
After Wen Anze sat down, he looked at the warm atmosphere and suddenly felt relieved. What if everybody paid attention to him! Thinking of this, Wen Anze bumped Wen An Hao with his elbow. Wen Anhao, who got the hint, nodded, and then took out a bunch of snacks from the oil paper, melon seeds, rice cakes, sesame candy, balls, etc., and handed them to Er Niu next to him in a miscellaneous manner, so that Er Niu couldn't free his hands for a while.
But this doesn't seem to be enough, Wen Anhao went to get snacks again, and then said to Erniu with a smile: "Erfat, what about the last time, I also had something wrong, come, although these are not my things, but even if I apologize to you" When Wen Anhao said this, he also deliberately bit "something that is not mine" very hard, as if he deliberately wanted to remind Erniu that he was just borrowing flowers to offer Buddha.
Regarding what Wen Anhao said, in fact, Erniu didn't care at all. Because of the matter of washing three, Erniu was afraid that Wen Anhao would find another opportunity to beat people. After all, last time it was because I didn't keep my promise and ran to complain to the adults as soon as I cried my nose, which made the matter so big.
This time, he was actually quite happy to be forgiven by Wen Anze and Wen Anhao. Although he is the king and hegemon at home, he still likes to play with Wen Anze and Wen Anhao outside. Not only because they have a lot of ideas, but these two brothers are also very good at playing, although everyone does not say it explicitly, but they all think that they are children. Since he fell out with the two of them, the children in the village have rarely interacted with him.
Wen Anhao looked at Erniu who was eating the snacks he handed over, he smiled and talked to him to divert Erniu's attention, and then took out a glutinous rice cake from an oiled paper bag, and carefully handed it to Wen Anze next to him from under his armpit.
Wen Anze took the glutinous rice cake handed over by his younger brother and took out a small yellow paper in his arms, which was the croton he had finally deceived from the old Langzhong family in the village.
Relying on the cover of Wen An'an in front of him, Wen Anze poured the croton on the glutinous rice cake without everyone seeing it. Because this glutinous rice cake is golden brown, the slightly yellowed croton powder is not unpleasant at all.
Wen Anze, who had everything right, handed the spiced glutinous rice to Wen Anhao under the cover of Wen An'an, and the series of movements were smooth as if nothing had happened.
Wen Anhao took the glutinous rice cake and didn't stop, suddenly stuffed it into Erfat's mouth, and said very sincerely: "This is made by Peach Blossom Niang, hurry up and eat more" and then covered Erfat's mouth with the palm of his hand, forcing him to swallow the glutinous cake.
It was only after seeing Erniu swallow the glutinous rice that Wen Anze and Wen Anhao were relieved. is not as desperate as before to get food for Erniu, the two of them play and eat by themselves.
In terms of eating, especially eating what they like to eat, children's combat effectiveness can be said to be very strong. It didn't take long for the food in the oiled paper packet to be swept away. Now that the food has been eaten, everyone doesn't want to continue to sit here on such a cold day and suffer from the cold, so they all stand up and plan to go home.
Wen Anze and Wen Anhao heard the shouts of their friends, made eye contact, and stood up pretending to be nothing, after standing up, Wen Anhao seemed to have just found Erniu sitting next to him and not moving, and then squatted down next to Erniu and shouted loudly: "Erfat, what's wrong with you?" ”
This voice made the little friends who raised their feet to stop their movements and focus on Erniu's body. Erniu felt the sight of everyone brushing together, and his round steamed bun face flushed with shame, and he stammered: "No, no, it's okay, you go first, I want to make it easier."
When everyone heard Erniu say this, they didn't feel anything wrong. Just as he was about to turn around and leave, he heard Wen Anhao babbling again: "How can there be no trouble, you see that your legs are trembling, and your face is still full of sweat on a cold day, are you sick?"
"Yes, if you are sick, you can't delay, you have to go to Grandpa Yang for treatment" Wen Anze also walked over with a 'worried' face, pulled Erniu's arm, and pulled him to move forward.
Erniu didn't care about everyone, but he just retreated back with an embarrassed face, and he refused to take a step.
After all, they are all a group of children, and they are scared when they hear Wen Anze and Wen Anhao say that Erniu may be sick. In ancient times, when the level of medical care was low, a cold could kill a person. And for children, getting sick means having to drink bitter medicine that can even spit out bile, which is something they never dream of encountering, so getting sick is a very big thing for them.
So everyone stepped forward one after another, and did not explain to Erniu, and pulled him away from the place together, Erniu didn't want to go, and he couldn't resist everyone's pulling, so he had no choice but to be surrounded by his friends and walked in the direction of the village.
But before he took two steps, the people around Erniu heard a "poof", accompanied by a smell of. The child who smelled the smell immediately let go of his hand, jumped to the side with lightning speed, and covered his nose and looked at Erniu with disgust.
The current Erniu really can't wait to find a hole in the ground and stuff himself into it from head to toe. He didn't want to lose face in front of his friends, but he couldn't hold it back, so he obviously said that he didn't need to help, and he could make it easier for himself. As soon as I thought of this, I felt another burst of damp heat in my trouser legs, and the stench rushed from under my body to my nose.
Wen Anhao stood in place and held back his laughter, his constantly shaking shoulders and slightly distorted face obviously betrayed his gloating at the moment. Wen An'an looked up at Wen Anze, although this thing did not show ridicule or disgust on the surface. But the smile in his eyes made Wen Anan see it clearly.
I don't know who broke out the laughter first, and the laughter around them is getting louder and louder one after another. As the protagonist of the joke, Erniu's children, looking at the smiling faces of their friends, their little faces were red, and tears were rolling in their eyes. Regardless of his current situation, he was not suitable for walking, and he dragged his pants and disappeared from everyone's sight.
Seeing Er Niu running away, some boys with bad mouths shouted behind him: "Er Fat, take off your pants and run, it's easier to run with a bare butt." If you get dirty again, be careful that your mother will come home and join you" As soon as the words fell, it caused the children to laugh again.
On that day, over the small dirt slope, the innocent laughter without malice lingered for a long time. It has become the best memory of Wen An'an and everyone in this village.
At noon the next day, Wen An'an, who was lying on the bed of the brothers, heard scolding from afar. Wen Anhao, who was practicing calligraphy on the table, heard the movement outside, immediately put down the brush in his hand, and swished out. Wen Anze didn't go out, but he didn't write big characters anymore, he just put down the brush in his hand, tidied up the table, and then came to Wen Anan's side, teasing his sister with a rattle.
It didn't take long for Wen Anhao to come back in a hurry. Dancing and talking to the eldest brother about the news of the outgoing inquiry.
"Brother, you don't know what to say, listen to Huzi, Er Niu Niang scolded the village from the head of the village" Wen Anhao picked up the teapot from the table, and didn't use the teacup, he drank it directly to his mouth, wiped his mouth after drinking and said: "There are still people who can't listen to it anymore, and they have a few words of theory with her, if it weren't for the big bull brother who followed behind, they almost started fighting." ”
Maybe it was because he thought of Er Niu Niang's rude appearance, Wen Anze laughed. After laughing, he had to call Wen Anze to watch the excitement together.
As soon as he got up, he was dragged back to the stool by Wen Anze. Wen Anze looked at his younger brother with an unknown face, and said with a smile: "Two days ago, we had a quarrel with her family, and if we go to see the excitement again, it will arouse suspicion."
Wen Anze nodded knowingly when he heard his eldest brother's explanation. However, he still ran into the yard and observed the movement outside through the crack in the door.
Erniu Niang's troubles in the village spread the scandal of Erniu from the children's circle to the adults. In the evening, every family used this matter as a seasoning for their meals, and talked about it with oil and vinegar.
At the dinner table of the Wen family in the evening, there was no surprise to talk about it. However, unlike other families, Wen Dad Wen Niang did not ask about what happened, and the street scolding of Er Niu Niang at noon.
Father Wen just looked up at his two sons who were silently holding the rice, and said lightly: "How did you make Erniu have diarrhea?" After speaking, he took a pair of chopsticks and put the meat in Wen's bowl.
Wen Anze and Wen Anhao couldn't help but pause when they heard Daddy Wen's question. From Wen An'an's point of view, you can also see the second brother kicking the eldest brother with his legs.
After waiting for a long time and not seeing the brothers answer, Father Wen put down the bowl in his left hand, and looked at Wen Anze and Wen Anhao directly, staring at the brothers until their backs were hairy.
There was no way, Wen Anze had no choice but to bite the bullet and said cautiously: "I deceived Grandpa Yang" Before Father Wen could react, Wen Anze hurriedly added: "I lied to Grandpa Yang that An Hao couldn't pull and wanted some croton." So the dosage is absolutely fine."
I have to say that Wen Anze is very good at grasping the key points. is obviously a life sentence, but he was stunned to reduce the crime to only criminal detention. But there is still a need to be educated.
After Wen Anze finished speaking, he gestured to Wen Anhao with his eyes, and the two looked at Wen for help. They knew that in this matter, at least Wen was not angry, otherwise Wen would not have been smiling as soon as he sat down to eat.
Before the two brothers could get off-site assistance, they felt a pain in their heads. They all turned to look at Daddy Wen, who hit people with chopsticks, and shouted aggrievedly to his father. I can't see the arrogance of yesterday's plan to succeed.
Father Wen didn't say anything, just turned the chopsticks in his hand and turned his head, picked up the bowl and continued to eat. When Wen looked at this, he knew that Wen Qing'an was not angry. But I don't plan to get stones with my sons, after all, these two boys also need a lesson.
Until Father Wen finished eating slowly, Wen Anze and the two were still sitting there upright, not daring to move.
Wen Qing'an looked at his son with his head down, and sighed: "Boys are naughty and dad doesn't object, but you all have to have a ruler in your heart, what should be done and what should not be done, and to what extent, you must think about it in advance."
Saying that, Wen Qing'an stood up, walked in front of his two sons, touched their heads, and said earnestly: "I don't need you to repay your grievances with virtue, but if you dare to do something that hurts heaven and reason, you will say that you are the descendant of my Wen family in the future."
For ancient people, the word clan can sometimes be bigger than the sky. Wen Qing'an reminded Wen Anze and Wen Qing'an with the descendants of the Wen family, although the words were not harsh, but the warning was meaningful.
Listening to Daddy Wen's words in bed, Wen An'an got to know Daddy Wen again tonight, there is no great truth of Wen Crepe, no pedantic values, no reprimand and scolding, just concise and clear vernacular, but it is a good interpretation that as a father, he should take on the responsibility of guiding the children correctly.
is Wen An'an is pleased to have such a father's education, and he will not meet two unobtrusive brothers in the future. Wen Qing'an's words scorched Wen Anlei's exterior and tenderness.
"Since you want to take revenge, you have to find the initiator, and Erniu is not so much at fault in this" Wen Qing'an, who finished speaking, did not stop, and walked to the kitchen with dishes.
Listening to Father Wen's words, Wen Anze and Wen Anhao didn't react for a long time. The two sat on the stool in a daze for a long time before they heard Wen Anhao's stumbling voice "Brother, what do you mean by father?"
Wen Anze also turned his head a little stiffly, looked at his younger brother in disbelief and said, "Probably, it is to tell us that the plan will continue to be implemented."
