Chapter 5 Blossoming Branches

The willow trees on the banks of the East River have sprouted. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 ο½‰ο½Žfo

Overnight, the East River changed, and the emerald green willow branches seemed to be painted by Chunlan, and each branch was so beautiful.

Spring is here in the East River.

Why do the tender willow sprouts grow so fast? The attentive child found that the willow banner for the daughter-in-law of the Eight Dogs was cut from the willow trees by the East River, and at that time, the willow branches were already full of spores, bulging, like the eyes of the daughter-in-law of the Eight Dogs.

Then, the wildflowers along the East River also bloomed one after another, and the water of the entire East River rose and flowed more rapidly!

In the days when everything recovered, the army went to school with a schoolbag on his back, and going to school was lonely for him. Because there is always less time to play than there is time for class. This year, there are more students, and the school does not have enough teachers and classrooms, and the second-year students only need to take two classes. For the army, this is a great joy, even more exciting than the New Year.

As usual, after class, the army went to the stall opposite the school to buy a bowl of baby fish. The old woman took a small porcelain bowl, pinched a small handful of baby fish, mixed it with some salted boiling water, and dipped a drop of sesame oil in the bowl with chopsticks, and suddenly the sesame oil dispersed, and the white white transparent dough with a tail in the water seemed to swim up, and the fragrance diffused around the army. He plucked the medicine bottle from one end of the bowl to the other, and gently scooped it up, and there were also a few small transparent dough with tails swimming in the small medicine bottle. He glanced at the little dough in the vial, exactly ten, smiled and nodded in satisfaction, and then, carefully, screwed the lid on, and placed it with a rolled note.

After swallowing a bowl of baby fish, he grabbed his schoolbag and ran home.

Niu Shao helped his father push the mill at home. When I heard the footsteps of the army, I screamed that my stomach hurt! Out of the mill, he ran straight to the footsteps.

After a while, a few little ones gathered in a dilapidated thatched hut near Hua Ni's house. The speed is no less than that of special forces.

"Brother Dajun, as soon as you leave, we will be in a hurry! Shimomura's big star was fishing for shrimp in the East River, not letting us get involved, and before he could say a word, the fist smashed over, but fortunately I was in a hurry! Ryuuji was crying as he spoke, and when he saw that the army did not speak, he cried even more fiercely until he aroused the anger of the army!

They went straight to the East River!

Sure enough, Daxing and a group of children fished a bucket of shrimp by the river, and the big red lobster climbed up with its claws, and the army turned the bucket upside down with all the strength of the bulls.

Everyone was stunned!

Just stunned for a few seconds, enough to push the anger of each child to the tip of the hair.

Let's fight! It's in full swing.

Magpies fly up the branches and watch the excitement!

Ospreys are lying across the trunks of dead trees, watching the excitement!

Sparrows fly over in flocks to see the excitement!

Only the crow was startled, and with a hula, the black ground was pressed in the sky, and after a few bitter screams, it flew in the direction of the ancient tower!

It's dark!

Some of their shoes fell into the river, some had torn their collars, some had their buttons torn off, and some had blood flowing from the corners of their mouths. Some of the crotch is fried.

"Big Star begs for mercy, Big Star begs for mercy!" In a cheer, the embarrassed star and the group of children were sent away.

Lobsters crawled everywhere, and Niu Shao wanted to pick up some to go home, and was scolded by the army: "Ask for cheap things!" Niu Shao smiled and said, "Spoils!" Booty! "In the end, I didn't take it.

It's terrible to get home, the house is like a pot, the mother has already taken the broom, her eyes widened, panting, sitting on the threshold, waiting for the child to enter the door!

The children were all hit by the board, and they all called their fathers and mothers, except for the army.

The army was carried like fish on a bench, and the bamboo strips whined at his ass and balls. The army is a stunned young man, even if the flesh blooms, he does not open his mouth to make a sound.

The children never regretted it. They feel like heroes!

Hua Ni secretly brought safflower oil to the army, she poured it into the palm of the army's hand, and left in a hurry without saying a word.

"Where did you go to the wild, look at your little one, and you still want to make a mistake?!" After a burst of sarcasm, it twisted around Hua Ni's face and neck. She felt that only the corner could allow her to temporarily avoid such a disaster, and she knew that the disaster had just begun.

For Hua Ni's stepmother, she even thought about when she could marry this girl as soon as possible and get some dowry. This was her initial and final plan for Hua Ni. She has low self-esteem because she can't give birth to such a beautiful girl, and after inferiority, there is always resentment sprinkled on the child. In order not to get angry with her grandfather, Hua Ni always whispered to her stepmother, neatly built old wine bottles, and carefully served the two sows, as well as chickens, ducks and geese. Thinking about making the meal that my stepmother likes to eat. The happiest thing about her day was when the army came back from school and secretly stuffed the copied texts into her hands. Hua Ni hid in the firewood room and quietly rotted the first and second grade books in her stomach. Every time, she holds the dough like a baby fish in her mouth, and she has the warmth of her loved ones. The army did not tell this secret to anyone, including the most trusted mother.

Hua Ni is just twelve years old, her body is gradually developing, and she has more ideas. Every time I go through the morning market to buy something, the aunts praise the child for getting more and more handsome, and he looks more and more like his mother. She didn't say anything, just smiled faintly.

One evening, a black Hongqi sedan stopped at the head of the village.

The door opened slowly, and a stylish woman opened the door of the rear seat, and she got out of the car, extremely slowly, as if slowing down the camera.

Hua Ni came back from the vegetable patch, and walked side by side with this woman, she looked at her, she looked at her, she seemed to be familiar, but she didn't know her. Until they came to the door at the same time.

Grandpa sat at the door weaving a bamboo basket, saw the woman in front of him, stood up, without a word, and slowly made a gesture to invite people into the house.

Fanny hid in the side room, her ears against the wall, listening to their conversation, because she knew it had something to do with her.

"His grandfather, you've been getting older all these years, I'm sorry for you!" As he spoke, he took out his handkerchief and wiped the tears from his face.

"It's all over, don't mention it again." Grandpa stuffed a nest of dry tobacco into the tobacco socket, wiped a match, put the fire on the cigarette socket, and took a few puffs violently, and the dry smoke burst onto the ground, and the smoke instantly filled the whole hall.

"What about him!" The woman asked. This woman is Hua Ni's mother, she ran away when Hua Ni was three years old and never came back.

"He went to play cards and came back at dinner." Grandpa finished speaking, still smacking his dry smoke violently.

"It's Hua Ni just now! It looks like me, just too skinny. Hua Ni slurred as if she wanted to say something, but she never spoke.

"Life is difficult, ashamed of the child! My old bones can only watch her not have an accident, and she can close her eyes if she can marry a good family. Grandpa's eyes turned red as he spoke.

"Grandpa, I want to take a child away! I opened a hotel in the city and made a good profit. I want to take one away, and the other I will also help me read some books, and now, the outside world is changing! You can't read without a book. I know you know the basics. Only...... Hua Niniang almost cried and begged.

After a half-stop, Grandpa put down the dry tobacco pouch that did not leave his mouth.

"The essentials, I can only lead Huani, and I have to tell Huani's stepmother about this, after all, she has the final say!" Grandpa cocked his feet, knocked off a nest of cigarette ash, and staggered towards the head of the black mountain with his hands behind his back.

Hua Ni walked out of the side room, and she crept to the door of the hall, and leaned on the doorframe to see the woman in the hallβ€”this woman who seemed to know, but did not know, this woman who was about to become her real mother.

Hua Ni's stepmother came back, spitting melon seed skin in her mouth, and her fat lips seemed to have been programmed to speak.

Just before she opened her mouth, Hua Niniang spoke: "Good girl, thanks to you for taking care of this family, I have to kowtow to you!" She knelt down instantly, to everyone's surprise.

Hua Ni's stepmother hurriedly stepped forward to help her up, and said, "Sister, don't bother my longevity, this family is still counting on people to earn money to feed their children!" I've been around my children day and night! ”

Hua Niniang hurriedly took out a stack of good cloths, and handed over the wrapped 1,000 yuan to Hua Ni's stepmother.

Hua Ni's queen mother said with a smile: "This is really kind and rewarding!" ”

"Grandpa said just now, Hua Ni is going with you, I am reluctant to give up this child, but for the sake of her future, I 。。。。。。" Before he finished speaking, tears fell. Hua Ni always felt that these tears were because of a handful of money in her arms.

"We're leaving! Otherwise, this dirt road will be too late to toss people. I'll see you next time, brother! I'll be visiting you again! Hua Niniang saw that the matter had a result, and she was afraid that the night would be long and dreamy, so she had to get up. The hatred that his former husband had for him was unforgettable.

Hua Ni wrote two notes. One reads: Brother. Jiang (will) come to school well. We'll be together. One reads: Brother Dajun. I'm going to town. You study well. We went to the university that Niu Runge went to together. We'll be together.

"Can I say goodbye to my friends? For a short while, the sun won't set. Hua Ni saw her mother nodding her head, and ran out. The speed of running reached her limit. She threw off her ponytail, which almost broke away from her, pulling at her scalp.

She cried, very sadly, and the spring breeze blew away her tears and covered her whole face.

The army poked brown rice in front of the house. Seeing Hua Ni coming, she hurriedly stepped forward.

"What's the matter, she hit you again?!" The army looked back and forth for blood on her neck.

Hua Ni shook her head, just crying, crying breathlessly. The aggrieved look is heart-wrenching.

She slipped the note into the army's hand, flicked her braids, and disappeared into the faint twilight.

The army remembered the note in his hand, he dropped the pestle, hurriedly opened the note, and after looking at it, he ran wildly! He remembered the black sedan parked at the head of the village, and he ran towards the head of the village.

The car started, and a puff of black smoke came out, obscuring the view of the army. He and the sedan started at the same time in the twilight, and gradually, the sedan became smaller and smaller in the sight of the army, and he was afraid of this change.

One of his shoes ran off, and he still ran; Stones and shells cut his feet, and he still ran; The wind whistled in his ears, his sweaty hair clung to his head, the sweat lost his eyes, and he still ran, ran。。。。。。

Twilight has arrived.

Reluctantly, he turned his head and faced the way home. In an instant, he cried, no one saw the army shed tears, and the matter of Daxing's complaint did not make him lose his nose.

He cried and shouted: "There are such bad people, people don't talk when they leave!" Don't laugh either! Don't look back! He hurriedly touched the note in the waistband of his trousers, and after a while, he was relieved that the paper had just fallen and the piece of paper was stuck in the seam on the top of his trouser pocket. He held the note in the palm of his hand like a treasure.

The army tread twilight, like a lamb abandoned in the wilderness.
