Yang Zegui was a little dazed. This stone bridge was once a powerful man, standing at the foot of Mao'er Mountain, watching the sunset in the west to lay a layer of red veil on Yangjiawan, opposite the Yantai Mountain, their own newly built tile house - the simplicity that was once covered by a bamboo forest, after the disaster, you can see people openly. There is also the buried house of Gui Ying's family...... Hey, that hard-working man who has been tricked by fate all his life, a man who died in his early years, two children who are asked for food everywhere, running and gambling, this God, why do you love to play tricks on people so much?

How good can you be? The son died young, and the adopted son ran away, and the daughter who had good grades abandoned her studies, and one of her own waste legs dragged down the whole family. Hey, fortunately, there is a competitive son-in-law, a promising seventh brother, and the big guys barely survived. Thinking of this, he was a little relieved. Hey, the days have to pass, the fallen bamboo should be quickly woven into baskets, and autumn is a good time to sell these bamboo products.

When Yang Zegui came home, Shufen was tutoring her sister with her homework. After there was no electricity, Shufei always did her homework under the kerosene lamp at night, and seeing that her eyesight was declining day by day, Yang Zegui asked her to come home from school every day and do nothing and do her homework first.

"Dad, are you back? Is my father-in-law better? Shufen asked politely.

"The same old way. Shufen, after you taught Shufei, come over and ask your father for a word! After Yang Zegui finished speaking, he took a knife and went to slaughter pigweed.

Shufen finished her homework and went to her father worriedly. The great father was sitting on a small bench, and one of his kneeling feet had been buried by the slaughtered pigweed. "Dad, what's the matter?" Shufen knew that what her father wanted to ask was to rush to the scene today, did she receive a letter from Fushun when she went to the post office, it has been more than a month? Didn't Fushun leave a message and send a letter at that time?

"It's nothing," my father had already seen that there was no news at all, "Shufen, your seventh uncle brought a message and called you to help the food group in the power station cook, what do you think?" ”

"I don't really want to go, it's almost autumn harvest, and there are a lot of ways to live at home!" Shufen was grateful for the kindness of this seventh uncle.

"Hey, you didn't go to the county to study last time, this time you should still go, your brother-in-law has the way to live at home, your seventh uncle said, go cook first, and have the opportunity to switch to food supply." The father once again emphasized what Uncle Seven meant, and when the power station was repaired, he would find a way to transfer Shufen to a regular employee.

Shufen looked at her mother, who had just picked up a load of water, turned to her father and said, "Brother-in-law also has his own way of life, and besides, the eldest sister is about to give birth, where can I take care of it?" If you don't go, you can ask someone to bring a message to Uncle Seven, thank you really for him! Shufen also thought about following Uncle Seven, but when the time came, she would leave her mother alone to do these jobs, not only to feed pigs, cattle, and silkworms, but also to feed these acres of crops, where could my mother stand it.

Yang Zegui sighed, he knew that this sensible daughter was all for this family. "Call Sister Shuhua to go, she wants to go!" Shufen took the basket and carried the pigweed to the stove house.

"Dad, are you still playing in the Mid-Autumn Festival this year?" Shufei, who had put away her homework book, ran over and asked. Yes, there are still a few days to the Mid-Autumn Festival, at this time of the year, the newly planted glutinous rice has been taken back, with a big mill so a grind, the round glutinous rice grains are white and full, and then soaked for a night, in the nest with a mallet to hit the glutinous rice cake, the round glutinous rice cake is dipped in the fragrant soybean noodles, which is better than the moon cake.

"Don't fight, eat cakes in the Mid-Autumn Festival this year." Yang Zegui thought about the only bit of wheat in the cabinet and said.

"Oh......" Shufei was a little disappointed, and when she saw the second sister come out to pack the pigweed for the second time, she also went over to help.

The crooked crescent moon showed its head when it was just dark. The hazy Yantai Mountain fell asleep to the "cooing" of owls, and the desolate Mao'er Mountain was full of traces of collapse, like a patch that had just been put on.

…………

Fu Shun spent two cents to buy a copy of the "Old Yellow Calendar", although most of the content was incomprehensible, he counted the days on the calendar every day. In the evening, it is obvious that the temperature has plummeted, and the first quarter moon rising over the river has gradually become full. Many shops on the street have started to sell mooncakes, and they see that the Mid-Autumn Festival is coming.

In Fushun's impression, in the mud ditch, when the father was there, he wanted to eat moon cakes for the Mid-Autumn Festival, and every August 15, his father could always bring back a few months of cakes in Shiqiao Supply and Marketing Cooperative, with five-kernel filling, sesame filling, and ham stuffing when he was lucky! After arriving in Yangjiawan, I have never eaten moon cakes again, and I eat glutinous rice cakes every Mid-Autumn Festival, but the taste of glutinous rice cakes is not bad! Hey, this Mid-Autumn Festival, there are still two or three days, I'm afraid I have to go down the river to move goods as usual! He counted the money while "Scar Liu" was away, it's almost over, let's leave in a few days!

But he was really reluctant to leave! In fact, this is not bad, Uncle Liu treats them like his own children, he is nearly two rounds older than himself. This Uncle Liu is very kind, and he can eat well at the dock, and the only people who take care of himself like this are his father and eldest brother! Thinking about the eldest brother, Fu Shun thinks, let's go, in the past few months, why hasn't he dreamed of the eldest brother again?

This night, "Scar Liu" returned to the bridge cave earlier than usual, and he had to go to the warehouse almost every night, and came back every night as usual. Uncle Liu's old friend heard that he was going to let the Fushun sister and brother replace her, and he had already quarreled with him more than once. Sometimes Fu Shun moved goods to the warehouse, and saw Zhu Xianxian, who had swollen skin and eyes, hated him, and he didn't feel good in his heart, it must be the grumpy "Scar Liu" who beat her again, right?

The sound of the footsteps coming back frightened Fu Shun and quickly hid the money in his bag, put it under the pillow and pretended to be asleep. "Scar Liu" entered the bridge hole and slammed the clothes he took off on the mat. I regretted my actions a little, picked up my clothes and covered Fushun's stomach - this Xixi River Wind is blowing, and the late night in early autumn is already a little cold!

He looked at this tired child, how kind! He even had some disgust with the widow surnamed Zhu in the warehouse, and after all these years, he didn't give birth to a man and a woman. If that year ......

Fu Shun, who was holding his head in a bag with books, was really uncomfortable, turned over and quietly glanced at this burly man, but he didn't expect Uncle Liu to be staring at him in a daze, under the afterglow of the street lamp, the corners of his eyes were crystal clear.

"Shun'er, you didn't sleep?" "Scar Liu" pretended to keep his head down and put a strip on the mechanical watch he had just taken off. "You didn't sleep to have a few sips of wine with your uncle!" After saying that, he went to the bridge above his head and fetched his daily marching kettle, a ferromagnetic cup, and a handful of raw peanuts with shells.

Fu Shun sat up and looked at Uncle Liu, it seemed that he had gone to his good place to be angry. "Shun'er, don't call Uncle Liu in the future, you really don't want to be called Godfather, then you call Uncle Liu, what kind of surname do you add?" "Scar" peeled a peanut and threw it in his mouth, took another sip of soju, and handed the cup to Fushun.

Fu Shun crossed his legs, took the wine vat and took a sip gently, Uncle Liu's soju was too spicy, he didn't dare to drink it in a big gulp. "Uncle, Sister Gui Ying and I have caused you trouble!"

This masculine uncle suddenly dimmed, snatched the wine and drank it all, and then poured it out of the wine jug, Fu Shun's eyes widened, he had never seen "Scar Liu" drink like this, and he always took a few sips of the pot gently.

"You're my son, what are you talking about?" "Scar Liu" patted Fushun on the shoulder and touched the melon seeds on his little head again. He must be drunk, Fu Shun thought, and took the initiative to peel a few peanuts for his uncle. "Uncle, I know that you treat me as a son, and Sister Gui Ying and I are very grateful......"

"Shun'er, I don't need you to be grateful. You kid is blessed, I haven't saved anything all these years, I caught up with good policies, and I suffered from a lifetime of wimp, but I didn't expect to pick up a big skimming in the end. "Scar Liu" stood up again as he spoke, and took out a bunch of keys from under the bridge, "Take it, this house is for you!" ”

Fu Shun looked at him in shock, he didn't dare to take the key at all, this Boss Liu must be drunk, maybe he will beat him up for a while, this boss of the bastard dock doesn't have a good temper! Fu Shun especially wanted to get up and run to another bridge hole, but he really didn't dare, sat on the mat and watched the "Scar Liu" who stood up sit down again, and simply took the wine jug and poured it into his stomach.

"Shun'er, your baby still reads often, okay! Do you know that Lao Tzu is also a scholar, and he went to college for a year, and then he was not allowed to read the book, and he ran around. Lao Tzu didn't think it was a thing back then, running away, running, free car and boat ride what to be afraid of, who knew that this run ran out of things, and a woman in the countryside made a shameful thing, scared my ass to urine, a trip away. Hey, I want to hammer myself when I think about it, it's really not a thing, and I don't know if the girl was born later, and if she gave birth to a son or a girl! Lao Tzu ran back to the dock in a trip, but he didn't expect that his home was gone! No matter how messy his grandmother is, she needs a coolie, but she didn't expect to quietly move something for someone to charge a few cents, and she was dragged to fight half to death, and her brain was all holes! Damn, the brothers helped, survived on this beachhead, the brothers lifted up, called me a big brother, the way of life on this dock Lao Tzu was openly and secretly received, and then no one cared about us, but I didn't expect this day to change again, we can finally do life openly! ”

"Scar Liu" was a little incoherent, and pinched a peanut with a shell in his hand, "It's really God's eyes, and I sent my son back......" He hugged Fu Shun and held the child's face with both hands, "She Zhu Lianhua is a ball, fuck off!" ”

Fu Shun was so frightened that he didn't dare to come out, and his face hurt so much from those big hands......
