Chapter 3: The Little Leopard
"Yes, ah~~ Sister, are you talking? Mom, my sister asked me! After the little steel cannon answered, he found that his sister, who had been silent for a long time, was looking at him with big eyes. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
"Xi'er, are you still feeling unwell?" The old man didn't care about the guilt, so he got up with the strength of the Tian couple and came to the bedside.
The love in her eyes made Xi'er less afraid of the unfamiliar environment.
"Grandpa, I'm fine, I don't believe you." After saying that, he sat up and showed off his little muscles.
"Hehe, it's okay, it's okay if you don't remember for the time being, let's take it slowly, we'll remember." Dad Tian is a good-tempered person at first glance.
The little steel cannon pressed Xi'er back into the quilt again, and laughed silently with his mouth open.
Tian's mother also stepped forward to fold the quilt for the two children, and her complexion looked a little better.
Everyone, you and I have a good chat, or the warm atmosphere is more suitable for this family, Xi'er thought secretly.
Everyone patiently answered Xi'er's various questions, and it took a while for Xi'er to roughly understand the situation.
My family is not only not farmers, but also knowledgeable intellectuals, my grandfather is an old professor at Tsinghua University, and my parents also teach at the university.
It's just that he was born at the wrong time, and in 1972 China was in a very special period, and it was a double-edged sword if his grandfather's identity was not good.
And grandpa has an upright temperament, and once offended a very powerful person.
Last year, on a professional academic report of my grandfather, he was caught with pigtails because he did not write Mao ~ Lord ~ Xi quotations.
The Red Guards went to Tian's house that night to raid the house, and Grandpa and Tian's father packed up their burdens overnight and were sent to the impoverished yellow earth of Huaibei.
It is said that it is to accept the re-education of the poor middle peasants, like the study of the poor middle peasants!
Mother Li Ying didn't want to slander her husband and father-in-law behind her back, and was finally sent to this place to reflect.
Oh, my God! Huaibei! Xi'er was secretly bitter in her heart, and there was a classmate in the dormitory who was from Huaibei, and she also described her life when she was a child.
And now fifteen years back from what she described, Xi'er is very depressed.
Li Ying originally thought that it was just that the living conditions were more difficult, but Xi'er's accident this time woke everyone up.
In this special period, human nature is the most unreliable, and everyone will be more vigilant in the future.
The sky was getting darker and darker, and Mr. Tian kept urging them to go back quickly, the road was frozen at night, and it was difficult to walk at night.
Tian Yuliang and Li Ying were assigned to the Haozhuang production team next door, almost ten miles away from the Gaozhuang production team.
Today, when they were helping a family in Gaozhuang repair their house, they learned that their daughter had drowned.
The corpse was seized by the village chief, saying that he would marry his son, and when the couple heard about it, they were shocked, threw down the mud ball in their hands, and ran away.
Xiao Gang Cannon even took advantage of the chaos, ran to the master's kitchen, carried a kitchen knife, and rushed out.
Kitchen knives were precious items in farmers' homes, but no one dared to stop them at that time.
It stands to reason that if you don't ask for leave and leave your job without authorization, the consequences will be very serious, not to mention the Tian family who was sent to "squat in the cowshed" and accepted labor reform.
I slept for a long time, but I felt colder and colder.
Xi'er had heard from her classmates before that the winter in Huaibei was said to be "Siberia", which was particularly cold.
It can even reach minus 19 degrees Celsius at night, and even the earthwork in the village freezes over.
But it's not like the Northeast, where there will be kang.
Thinking of this, Xi'er also hurriedly urged Tian to go back quickly.
The Tian couple didn't insist any longer, told them carefully, pulled the small steel cannon and turned back step by step, and rushed into the coming night.
Li Ying's eyes were rippling, and before leaving, she hugged Xi'er and kissed her again and again, telling her to listen to her grandfather obediently and stop running around.
Grandpa Tian washed his feet, got into the quilt, and hugged Xi'er to warm each other, but it was not hot for half a day, and he even put all his clothes on the quilt later, which was slightly better.
In the winter, everyone only eats two meals, so naturally there is no need to cook dinner.
The grandfather and grandson are in the bed, you ask me and I answer, and the conversation is quite speculative.
I don't know if Xi'er is weak in nature, or if Grandpa Tian's skills in coaxing children are good, Xi'er soon fell into a dark and sweet sleep.
In the morning, Xi'er was woken up by smoke.
"Ahem, cough, grandpa~grandpa~" Old man Tian heard Xi'er's voice, and rushed over with tongs.
"Awake? Ye is boiling water, and there will be hot water to wash his face immediately. ”
Looking at the funny appearance of the old man Tian's face, which was black and white, and his teary eyes were swaying, Xi'er giggled.
"Little Nizi, is it funny? Hurry up and help grandpa light the fire, the kitchen is about to be burned by me. ”
Xi'er dressed neatly with her hands and feet, and folded the quilt in twos and threes.
As soon as I walked into the stove, oh my God~ thick smoke was billowing out~, Xi'er tried several times, but she was so smoked that she couldn't open her eyes and couldn't get in at all.
"Grandpa, what are you boiling water, it's like burning the kitchen!" When Old Man Tian heard this, he laughed.
Usually this is done by eight-year-old Xi'er, but today Mr. Tian saw that his granddaughter was sleeping soundly, and he couldn't bear to wake up, so he pondered boiling some hot water by himself.
The imagination is beautiful, but the reality gives two slaps in the face.
In the end, the grandfather and grandson had no choice but to hide outside the house and wait for the smoke to dissipate before going inside.
The weather in October in Huaibei is already very cold in the morning and evening~ The grandfather and grandson were already thinly dressed, and they didn't even have time to pack up a thicker cotton coat when they came, and they still wore the jacket they wore when spring came.
The two of them were so cold outside that they stomped their feet~~
Xi'er didn't expect her first day in Takashiso to start in this way.
Looking at the yellow earth under the white mist, the golden wheat fields are endless, and the tall paulownia trees on the earthen dam are lined up, like soldiers standing guard.
The leaves have begun to turn yellow, and a thick layer of leaves has fallen on the earthen dam.
Nests of different sizes are exposed on the tall and straight branches, and it is very quiet, and it is estimated that the birds have also flown to the south for the winter.
I couldn't find a single color other than gray and yellow.
Huh~~ There was a clump of green bamboo next to the house, and Xi'er's eyes lit up.
Behind the cracks in the bamboo, half of the shirt is exposed.
"Who is it? Why are you standing there? ”
After groping for a long time, I saw a little boy in a black shirt come out from behind the bamboo bushes, pursing his lips that were cold and blue.
This little boy is vigilant like a little leopard that will attack at any moment.
Grandpa Tian didn't know either: "Who are you from?" What are you doing here? ”
Xi'er's family is located on the edge of the village, and everyone will pass through here to work in the fields east of the dam.
And there are no villagers living in the vicinity.
The servants were staring at each other with wide eyes, and finally someone came.
"Xiaoyi, have you borrowed the fire? Huh~~ You live here? ”
A middle-aged man with glasses walked around from behind the bamboo, rubbed the little boy's head, and then looked at Xi'er's grandfather and grandson and the house behind him with thick smoke.
Xi'er turned her head to look at Grandpa Tian.
"Are you new here?" "Is your house on fire?"
Old Man Tian and the man with glasses asked at the same time.
"Oh, yes! Son Zhang Yi. After saying that, he pushed him forward, but the little guy was very stubborn, twisted his body and broke free.

The cat is pitiful and asks for a recommendation ticket~~~
