008 July trellises

A peach-colored incident, in a calm mountain village, is like a pebble smashed into the river. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 infoAlthough the pebbles will soon be submerged in the water, the ripples caused by the pebbles will slowly and slowly spread around. In less than a day, almost dozens of households in the entire Dage Village knew about this incident.

Mrs. Ma trembled with anger, she made Ma Erdong kneel in the hall, and even slapped this shameless son with a broom.

Ma Erdong and Mrs. Ma have relied on each other since childhood, and Mrs. Ma has always been reluctant to beat him, but she didn't expect that this kid would break into such a disaster this time. It's really a shame for the Ma family!

Sister Fang was lying on the bed, not eating or drinking, except for occasionally going out to the toilet, she didn't move. No matter how good Mrs. Ma was, she turned a deaf ear. And Ma Erdong, who was kneeling in the hall, had a pale face and did not say a word. Mrs. Ma looked at the kneeling one, and then at the lying one, and couldn't help sighing: "Wrongs, two wrongs!"

I didn't know these things at the time. My house is still a long way away from Mrs. Ma's house. Moreover, when this incident happened, I was still very young, and even if I heard about this peach color incident that caused a stir in Dage Village, I would not understand the euphemism and vicissitudes of state of mind contained in it.

In the fragmentary memories of the people of Dage Village, the events of that year are like a broken coarse porcelain vase being reassembled and placed. The thin porcelain is broken, and the pieces are returned to their places, which makes the original ordinary coarse porcelain wide-mouth vase with the beauty of ice cracks. It's like that, as it is now.

Seeing this, you can't help but say that Ma Erdong seems to be far away from our story. The story of his parents doesn't seem to have much to do with the story I'm going to tell now. But in fact, the love affair between Ma Erdong and Gui Gardenia plays a very important role in our story. And it is precisely because of the importance of this matter that I dare not omit it at all, so I have to honestly try to describe the situation that I could not see back then.

By the time I was able to run a little, Blind Chen was already familiar with our family. During the New Year's holidays, the family will invite Chen Blind to stay at home for a few days. My eldest uncle Tu Zhengshan and second uncle Tu Zhengren separated from my grandfather Tu Guoqiang as early as when they got married. At that time, my father Tu Zhengyi was still very young, and he still lived with my grandparents. We've lived together ever since. My grandfather had only one brother, and many years ago he left Dage Village and moved to Xiaolianzhuang, which was hundreds of miles away from my home. That's my uncle. Because of Blind Chen's "life-saving grace" to me, I was asked by my grandfather to respect Blind Chen as the third master. Chen is blind and three months and thirteen days younger than my grandfather.

After Ma Erdong and Gui Gardenia's bamboo forest secrets were revealed, my second uncle respected Chen Blind a lot more than before. In the past, he thought that Chen Blind was right about my birth as a blind cat meeting a dead mouse, but he didn't think so. But now, when Ma Erdong's moonlight bamboo forest is presented in front of people, my second uncle has to be convinced. During the New Year's holidays, the second uncle will pull my second aunt to toast the blind man Chen, and the two of them will hold up the wine glass and respectfully and sincerely shout: "Third uncle, nephew|nephew and daughter-in-law will toast you~"

The first time I heard the second uncle and the second aunt shout out this third uncle neatly, it was in the Mid-Autumn Festival not long after the Ma Erdong incident, two lines of tears overflowed between Chen's blind eyes when he heard the words, and he was so excited that he could barely hold a small wine glass.

That time, the second uncle's initiative to toast meant that he was recognized by all of our family.

Chen, who has been lonely for more than 50 years, has a family since then.

Since then, there has been no such helpless Chen blind man in the world.

For this reason, the blind man Chen, who was full of emotion, once said to my grandfather when he was drunk: "Second brother, I really didn't expect that I, Chen Blind, would have such a day, and someone affectionately called my uncle and called my grandfather......"

My grandfather waved his hand, completely ignoring the rising smell of wine and the already vague big tongue: "Third brother, you~ don't say ~ say, not only ~ to ~ after ~ after ~ ah, there are ~ people ~ call your uncle ~ shout ~ call you lord ~, also ~ also ~ there are ~ people ~ shout ~ shout ~ call you grandpa ~ grandpa ~ wait~ wait for you ~ hundred ~ hundred ~ a hundred years later, he~he and several of them~ have to burn paper incense and kowtow to you......"

My grandfather arrogantly circled us with his arms, and before he finished speaking, he fell drunk on the dinner table. Leaving the dazed Chen blind man drunk, he remembered that in a hundred years, someone would burn paper and kowtow to him, and he couldn't help crying. The helpless Chen blind man got the family affection and bonds he longed for for for almost half his life before he was about to return to his roots.

At that time, Chen Blind didn't know that there were two people besides us who gave him incense and burned paper and kowtowed. Moreover, these two people are still women.

Of course, that's another story.

Ma Erdong's family is gloomy, but Chen Blind has become the beneficiary of this affair. As early as when Ma Erdong was working in the city, he predictively announced the news to the two women left behind by Ma Erdong's house. But at that time, none of the two women, one old and one young, were willing to believe his "nonsense".

"Child, third master, how do you know that Ma Erdong is good with Gui Gardenia outside?" I remember one year during the Chinese New Year, the adults were gossiping around the stove, and the second aunt asked Chen Blind with great curiosity.

Blind Chen twisted his sparse beard, put out a posture of a master, and said slowly after pondering for a long time: "The secret of heaven must not be revealed~"

But later, he told me privately that he knew about it by chance~

There are not many fields in Dage Village, but there are dozens of households in the village. Young and middle-aged laborers are largely idle when the farm is not working. Every year, the men of Dage Village will try their best to earn some extra money to subsidize their families. Generally speaking, most people will go fishing in the summer to dig up some herbs to sell, and in the winter they will go to the mountains to collect some mountain goods in order to make some profits. And these are often not as much as working to earn more.

In the 80s, the Kitahwon region was still blocked from the tide of the times by the lofty mountains. Even so, the spring breeze of reform still had a seemingly faint but meaningful impact on the northern plains. Although at the time, many people did not realize that when they wielded their usual hoes to work, a new era of Kitahara was being created in their hands. And this new era has brought earth-shaking changes to the almost eternal Northern Plains. This change has benefited thousands of people in the northern plains, allowing them to lift their eyes from the land that has been passed down from generation to generation and cast their eyes on a broader world.
