Chapter 15: Leaving home and not giving up the neighbors, the green horse is ready to move
Speaking of walking is really a bit magical, I remember that it was five years ago one evening, I came back from Mujia Cliff playing, it was almost dusk, the sky gradually darkened, walking on the road, I suddenly heard a heart-rending howl in the grass not far away, I followed the sound, it turned out that a pony lost its way, barking in the grass. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Although the pony was small, fat and strong, handsome, with a shiny black mane, it looked like it was not an ordinary horse.
The pony looks like it's just over a year old at most, but I don't know where its mother has gone.
I lost my mother when I was a child, and I felt the same way for this little guy who had left his mother, so I wanted to take it home and feed it something. But when I dragged it away, it refused to go, just stood there and looked at me lonely and sadly, just like I always remember my mother's eyes.
I suppose the pony must be waiting for his mother here, but night has fallen, and I can't bear to let such a young horse starve in this place. In addition, the weather in the north is the night of the Loess Plateau, and the temperature at night drops to a very low level, and it is very likely that the pony will freeze to death.
But this situation made me not know what to do, and the pony was unwilling to go with me, and I was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot. Suddenly, I had an idea, since I was unyielding, then I would move it with emotion and reason, and it would not hurt to try.
I pretended to say: "Little pony, I am the same as you, I have no mother since I was a child, and I miss my mother very much, but you see that it is getting late now, if your mother knows that you are here to endure the cold and hunger, she will definitely be sad, you go home with me first, if you wait for your mother, I will accompany you here every day in the future, will you wait for your mother?" ”
The pony seemed to understand what I said, and her eyes were a little torn between them. I looked at the pony with a determined look, and the pony looked at me. After a few moments, the pony came to me with a few long chirps, and I took it home without any problems.
It is said that horses can understand human speech best, I have never believed it, but after that time, I am convinced.
Early the next morning, I took the horse to the grass and waited for its mother, until the sun went down, and no horse came, and so the horse and I waited here for half a month, but in vain.
The half-moon scene, I am already very familiar with the horse, and it listens to me very much. Since then, the horses and I have been our best playmates. And we went to the grass every now and then to wait for her mother's return, and in the blink of an eye five years had passed, and the little pony had now grown into a majestic horse.
The color of the hair is black and shiny, and it looks like an endless green grassland from a distance, so I named it "Taoqing".
It is no exaggeration to say that it is no exaggeration to travel thousands of miles a day, and I remember that once my father rode it from Wubao County to Xi'an in one day.
The nearby fathers and villagers all said that this was a good horse, and they all thought that I could have this horse because of the marriage in my previous life.
Walking in the backyard of our house, I specially tailored for it horse shed, no reins, no restraints, out of the backyard gate, through a hundred or so square flat land is a large hillside, overgrown with wild grass, is a natural place to feed horses.
Usually I open the backyard door during the day, and let the outing go outside as I like, and it comes back on time. As soon as I entered the backyard and was resting on the ground, I knew that it had just gone out to spread the wilderness, and when it saw me coming, it jumped up and flashed in front of me.
I stroked its smooth fur and said, "Qing'er, we're going out tomorrow, and it's up to you to go out!" ”
Taqing immediately hissed excitedly, and that happy look seemed to have a kind of "feeling that the hero is finally useful".
Also, since I grew up, I haven't had any good opportunities to perform, I've been playing and frolicking with me, and I don't have the opportunity to show my good skills. Now that it knows about such a good opportunity, it is very excited at a regular time. I also happily kissed it on the head, then fed some fodder, and went out.
While I still have time, I have to go and see the grandparents, aunts and grandparents in the village. They have been very good to me since I was a child, and I am really reluctant to let them go.
The closest to my house is the house of the three masters, and I came directly to the house of the three masters.
The family of the three masters is still so poor, the two sons went to Biansai to serve as soldiers early, one died and the other is still missing, and the three masters have been living alone for more than ten years. Thanks to his father's perennial care, otherwise, I really don't know how he lives as an old man. The third master has also been very good to me since I was a child, and I remember that the only profitable pear tree in his family will store pears for me every year.
When I think about these on the way here, I can't help but sigh!
"Who?"
As soon as I stepped into the door of the three masters, the three masters heard the voice and asked.
"It's me, Tiancheng!" I replied.
"Come in, come in, you haven't seen my old man in a while!" The three masters shouted urgingly.
I followed the sound into the door, the broken furniture in the house is dotted, it is dilapidated, several old stools have been polished to a shiny black, although the "Tiger Descending the Mountain" in the middle hall is not painted by a famous artist, but it looks like a tiger and tiger are vigorous, it has a history of almost a hundred years. At this time, the three masters were busy with housework, and although the home was broken, they were all cleaned up neatly and staggered.
The three masters are still so skinny, they feel like they can be blown down by a gust of wind, in fact, the three masters have been doing farm work for many years, and their bodies look thin but they are actually old and strong.
I immediately stepped forward to help, and while chatting, I told the three masters that I was going out tomorrow!
After being surprised for a long time, the third master said with emotion: "Tiancheng, you are a good boy, it's time to go out and explore the rivers and lakes, when the third master is as young as you, he often runs around the rivers and lakes!" ”
After chatting with the third uncle for a while, he got up and went to the fourth uncle's house next door.
The fourth uncle and my father are the same generation, and they are also in business, so they can be regarded as people close to me.
The fourth uncle runs a medicinal herb business in Xi'an Mansion all the year round, and his family conditions are very good, and he is one of the largest families in Mujia Village and even within a radius of dozens of miles.
But even if you have been in business for a long time, you will be sharp-mouthed and thin-tongued, and sometimes you will inevitably feel uncomfortable.
This may be a common problem of businessmen nowadays, who are so wealthy and often worry about trivial things.
As soon as I entered the door, the fourth uncle was beckoning his subordinates to pack up the medicinal herbs, and when he saw me coming, he immediately waved me over.
I walked over, the fourth uncle is a lot of men and women to marry and so on, I know his intentions, his daughter is worried that she can't find a good family, and she is clamoring to marry us all day long.
Murong Qingyi's sister and I have been childhood sweethearts since childhood, and we have always been a talented and beautiful pair in the eyes of our neighbors. I also know that my sister is interested in me, but I have been unruly since I was a child, and I am really afraid of delaying the good future of other girls, so I have always avoided talking about it. My younger sister has been talented since she was a child, and her martial arts are also very good, the fourth uncle has been trained by a famous martial arts teacher since she was a child, and now Murong Qingyi's sister is studying abroad, and she hasn't seen it for several years.
I said that I was going to go out once, the fourth uncle was shocked at first, and then smiled and said that I, who had not been out since I was a child, was finally going out of the cabinet, and said that this is a good thing, let me go to see the world, so that I can match their family affection, etc., and don't forget it when I leave, let me go out to give more publicity to his medicinal materials, these four uncles! Three sentences do not leave the old line.
After going out, I was thinking about whether to go to my aunt's house or go to my third aunt's house first, when three people came to meet me, the middle was handsome and dashing Yushu Linfeng, followed by two entourage, both of whom were also big men. I looked at it for a long time and felt very familiar, but I couldn't recognize it for a while, and suddenly I suddenly realized, this is not Murong Lianqi!
"Why have you stayed in the village for a long time, and you haven't seen the world, and people can't recognize it?" At this time, Murong Lianqi said with a cold smile.
"No, no, it's because you've changed too much, I haven't seen you return to the village for seven or eight years, and I haven't remembered it for a while!" I hurriedly explained.
Murong Lianqi held back a good glance at me, called his entourage and left.
I'm also very helpless, this Murong Lianqi was originally the son of the second uncle. In the early years, his father and my father fought for the position of patriarch, and the Mujia Village was restless, and then the second uncle was defeated, and the family moved to Xi'an Mansion in a fit of anger, and never came back, and I have never seen Murong Lianqi since then.
Later, I heard from my father that the second uncle came to set up his own gang in Xi'an Mansion, ran several restaurant businesses, and had a prosperous life. I don't know what Murong Lianqi said about returning to the village today? Forget it, let's go to my aunt's house first!
The aunt's house is located at the foot of the back mountain, very close to the old man's residence.
The aunt is also a hard-working person, her husband went out to earn a living in his early years, and now there is no news, and his life and death are unknown.
The aunt washed her face with tears every day, and she was blind early, but fortunately, the aunt's son is very sensible, and he takes care of his mother while working in the family farm, and he is a very filial son.
When I came to the door of my aunt's house, the courtyard door was closed, I didn't know if there was anyone, I pushed the door down, but I didn't expect the door to be closed, so I pushed the door in. Although my aunt is blind in both eyes, her ears are very smart, and she can hear the wind and grass.
Before I could step through the door, my aunt was already shouting from inside the house, "Which wild child is running around?" ”
I smiled wryly, my aunt is still so hot-tempered!
"It's me! I hurriedly replied.
My aunt immediately heard that it was me, so she hurriedly felt out of the room.
I immediately went up, hugged my aunt and said, "Auntie, you have difficulty moving, I will go in to find you, why did you come out?" ”
"Good doll, Auntie misses you!" The aunt said with a crying voice.
My aunt and I sat in the house and chatted for a while, and explained the purpose of our visit, but my aunt said that she would not allow me to go out, and that she would go and tell my father that she would not let me go out. It seems that my aunt is really tormented by her husband's outing, and her spirit is about to split, and I can't tell her all the secrets, so I have to hide it from her first, saying that I won't go or something like that.
It was a delay of half an hour to chat at the aunt's house, and after appeasing the aunt, he went straight to the third aunt's house.
Speaking of the third aunt, I really can't cry and laugh, the third aunt's family is extremely sloppy, and when you go to her house, the cups and plates are often messy and mottled. The three aunts are five big and three rough, and the nature is like a man, and the famous housekeeper is a well-known housekeeper in the vicinity, that is, the so-called "shrew", often loves to take advantage of some small advantages, and loves to join in the fun, last time the village came to a Langzhong to see a doctor for free and send medicine, and the third aunt had to take medicine without illness, and almost didn't overturn people's tables.
Don't let me think about it, I have come to the door of the third aunt's house, and I heard the hysterical shouts of the third aunt from a distance, and it seems that she is teaching the child again.
