Chapter 022: The Dog Comes to Rich

"Running Henan" is a kind of marriage avoidance and survival measures in Shuchuan Province, especially in the Dongchuan mountainous area. Dongchuan is known as the saying "there are no three sunny days in the sky, and there is no three feet flat on the ground". It is mountainous, the land is barren, there are many people and there is little land. The yield of farmland is low, barely enough to feed and wear. The farm work is carried shoulder to shoulder, and the basket is carried on the back, which is quite hard. It is said that the people in the Dongchuan area are generally not high, which is the reason why they have been under heavy pressure since childhood.

The so-called "land of abundance" actually refers to the Xichuan Plain. The wind and rain were good, and people were not able to solve the problem of survival. In times of disaster, women often flee. Dongchuan is also an old area of G-life, which is a well-known national-level "poverty-induced" area.

Although Henan is not a rich province, it is mostly plain. And the farm work is relatively much easier, and it only takes a little effort to feed a large family. The women who went out from the barren Dongchuan were quite simple and industrious. When they have a good life, they will write back to their parents' homes. Then, "help" each other to show the way to good sisters and relatives, so that many women in Dongchuan married far away from Henan. During the three-year disaster period, a large amount of grain went out of Sichuan, which was a peak.

According to later statistics, there are more than one million people in Henan. Of course, there are also those who run to Suluji and other places.

Dongchuan is already poor, and it is difficult for men to please their mothers-in-law. Millions of women are marrying far away, adding insult to injury. Naturally, there are more singles among local men, and the result will inevitably affect social stability. It is said that during the "Weng" period, the martial arts battle in Dongchuan was quite serious, and countless people died. The most exaggerated claim is that "dead corpses" drifted to the mouth of the Yangtze River. There are fights everywhere, and there is no salvage. It is not known whether the seriousness of the fighting is related to the flight of women and the excess energy of men.

The "old three musketeers" in the team are typical, and the "new three musketeers" later worked hard to let the old man beg his wife and renew the incense. Hong Yan didn't know if Changsheng's mother "ran to Henan to cut", at least she left home. Therefore, the initial pilot of the household contract responsibility system was Shuchuan in addition to Anhui, so that there is a slang saying "to eat grain" to find so-and-so, "to eat rice" to find which.

The so-called household responsibility system means that all land is divided and contracted to each family, and the family is used as a unit to organize and carry out production and business activities.

"That's right, isn't the pilot project of the household contract responsibility system next year? Alas, it cannot yet be called the 'household responsibility system for the production of goods,' and next year it will only be a responsibility system for agricultural production in which the production is contracted to the group. With the family as a unit, large-scale promotion will have to wait until 82 years! Hong Yan slapped on his forehead with a "snap", and the sound alarmed Sanxiao.

"Cauldron, why are you beating yourself?" The little girl asked. "Big brother is disobedient, he should be beaten!"

Hong Yan took Sanxiao to find Changsheng. Changsheng ran home crying, not even going to preschool. Anyway, it's been nearly an hour, and Hong Yan has returned!

When he went up to Xiaosun Dam, Hong Yan was surprised to find a dog lying in the open space near the pigsty and chicken coop. There are two dogs in the front yard, and neither Hong Yan's family nor his grandfather's family have fed them. The ancestor said that people can't feed themselves, so what do you do to feed the dogs. "Isn't there me?"

There's really nothing to see at home these days.

The coat on the back of this dog is dark black, the abdomen, the lower part of the neck and other parts are gray and almost white, and the ears are pointed, like a wolf dog, lying there looking at the four brothers and sisters of Hongyan who slowly appeared from the stairs. When they were all in the small dam, the dog stood up and slowly walked towards Hongyan and them. Hong Yan immediately stood at the front and was on guard, signaling the three of Xiaofeng behind him not to move. The three little eyes are all afraid.

The wolfdog stood up, its tail drooping, its belly dropping, and it was more than a lap larger than the average dog. The wolf dog walked up to Hong Yan, lowered his head and sniffed, arched his feet with his mouth, then rubbed his thighs, and circled around him again, seemingly without malice. Hong Yan understood that the dog was showing favor and wanted to be close to Hong Yan.

Hong Yan stretched out his little hand and gently placed it on the wolf dog's head. He felt the wolfdog's somewhat stiff neck slowly relax, allowing his small hands to caress from head to neck to back. In the end, the wolf dog seemed to enjoy sitting down with half-squinting eyes and letting Hong Yan caress him. It's still a trough dog!

At this time, the third child also relaxed, with joy in his eyes, and planned to learn from the eldest brother to touch the wolf dog. Hong Yan stopped them and asked Xiao Feng to come out with a piece of watermelon in the house. Xiao Feng understood what his brother meant, and carefully held the watermelon in front of the wolf dog's mouth. The wolf dog sniffed and looked up at Hong Yan. Hong Yan nodded and said, "Eat!" He is also a relative, without malicious intent. ”

Wolf dogs are very good at eating watermelon, and they gnaw off the pulp in a few bites, and watermelon seeds come out of their mouths. Xiao Feng's actions quickly made Xiao Zheng and Rong Rong understand, and the two competed to hold the watermelon. Feed one person at a time. After the wolf dog ate three pieces of watermelon, sniffed Sanxiao respectively, and let Sanxiao stroke it before going over to lie down at the root of the pigsty wall.

Hong Yan knew that the wolf dog had already known four people and recognized the four people. But why did it show its closeness to Hong Yan in the first place? Does he have any appeal? As the local slang saying goes, "Pigs come to be poor, dogs come to be rich." I don't know, but dogs are very intelligent creatures, and maybe they can sense anything. Of course, it is also possible to think that the dog is a friend of humans and has a natural closeness that gives it more meaning.

The laughter of children in the backyard alarmed the ancestor. She appeared at the back door with her little feet, and with the eyes of Xiaofeng and the others, she was very surprised to see the wolf dog that was out of sight. She didn't alarm the outsider who seemed to be recuperating.

The words of Uncle Xiao and Teacher Xiao Fang came up intermittently from under the dam. Preschool is out! The wolfdog immediately blew up, had a slight grunt in its throat, and then slowly got up, its eyes looking in the direction where the sound came from. Hehe, I've entered the role to fulfill my duties!

Hong Yan stood on the edge of the dam to greet them, and stopped the wolf dog's behavior in time. She slowly returned to her place and lay down.

Also coming was the little golden flower Song Youlan. After beckoning Teacher Xiaofang and Xiao Jinhua to sit down, they had to go and take out the watermelon again. "Sister Xiaofang and Xiaojinhua come to eat two pieces of melon to cool off!"

"Hmph, I'm not called Little Golden Flower!" The little girl immediately expressed her displeasure and pouted in protest. "Haha! Yes, it's not called Little Golden Flower, so what's it called? "My name is Song Youlan." The little girl was very sharp-tongued and answered very quickly.

"No one knows Lansheng Valley, and the guest Dongxuan leaves me fragrant. Sure enough, the name is good, the person is as its name, quiet and elegant. Hong Yan casually recited two lines of poetry. When the little girl heard this, she sat up more upright.

Teacher Xiaofang pinched the watermelon elegantly with three fingers, and looked at Hong Yan with big eyes: "Do you know this allusion?!" ”

Song Youlan took a small bite of the watermelon very elegantly, carefully avoiding the juice dripping on the top of the little skirt. The tutor is good!

"How do I know? Say it casually. Sister Xiaofang eats, ask your little cousin to eat together, and children still have to look like children. "To be honest, the way these two cousins are dressed makes him feel uncomfortable. Four sisters, if it sounds good, it is called cold, and if it is bad, it is called unclothed. While speaking, the uncle had already eaten a piece of melon.

"I heard you got into a fight yesterday?" Teacher Xiaofang wiped her hands after eating a piece of watermelon, and then asked.

"Which one did Sister Xiaofang listen to? When people bullied me, I just kicked me back. You know I'm a small person with little strength, and it's not like it's tickling. Those people are also really, they don't work hard and chew their tongues, when can socialist modernization be successfully built! Did Sister Xiaofang hear that I was injured by someone, so she bought something to eat and came to see me? ”

Teacher Xiaofang heard the flute and said, "Yes, I heard that I was seriously injured and bedridden, and I originally wanted to catch two chickens, but I was laying eggs." You're a small person, aren't you? Which tooth was knocked out? Which one was kicked four or five meters away? Laughing at me, some people still call themselves masters, and it's not a good thing when you hear it. Do you know why flowers are so red? I don't know, Sensei shook his head, how could you not know? Is there anything else you don't know? ”

"That...... Sister Xiaofang, what's wrong with you? I'm your student, or my brother, you can't turn your elbows out, otherwise, I'll see you later......"

"How?" Teacher Xiaofang was vicious and gritted her teeth.

"Call my sister from afar, for sure!" Hong Yan's eyes blinked, and he immediately connected it.

"That's pretty much it!"

"To tell you the truth, I sometimes think, what kind of brother-in-law should the beautiful and gentle little Fang find to be able to subdue?"

"I want to die!"

"Giggle......" "Haha!" Song Youlan giggled, and the other children laughed inexplicably when they saw this.

"Sister Xiaofang, is there something wrong?" Hong Yan saw that Teacher Xiaofang didn't mention the purpose of coming, so he asked directly.

Teacher Xiaofang had a very innocent look. "Is there something to come? I'm going to pass through your yard when I get home, right? Just drop by and see if you're hurt! ”

I hope so! Hong Yan thought to himself.

"Then Sister Xiaofang is ready to start teaching next month?"

"Yes, I've got all the textbooks. Hee-hee, teach the first grade, you're under me, hum ......"

"Humph what? Did Sister Xiaofang scare me? I'm so scared! Hong Yan made a frightened expression, which made Teacher Xiaofang laugh again. Cut, I don't go to school in the second half of the year, and I will go straight to the 5th grade in the next two years. ”

"Really, fake? Is there such a gifted child? ”

"Just kidding. Sister Xiaofang, don't you consider going to university? Anyway, you've just graduated from high school, aren't you? ”

Although the education has not been normal in the past ten years, it is better to be able to go to high school, and no matter how bad the level is, it is better than the "old three" who have lost it for more than ten years!

"Going to college? When is the college entrance examination? How I didn't hear about it. Teacher Xiaofang obviously didn't believe it.

"Listening to the radio and reading the newspaper, the short guy who went out of our county is coming back, and he's having an educational meeting these days. In such a big country, it is absolutely abnormal that there is no university without a college entrance examination. The feudal dynasty said that in order to attract talents, there is also Enko, and it may not be long before there will be accurate news. ”

On October 21, the state will announce the resumption of the college entrance examination in December. Of course, it is impossible for Hong Yan to tell Teacher Xiaofang the exact time, otherwise it will not be too demonic.

"Really?" Teacher Xiaofang was very anxious and wanted to immediately confirm the authenticity of the news. "However, it's been two years since I graduated, and I haven't studied hard in those two years!" Eagerness was followed by frustration.

"Still boiled? Has anyone studied well? Pick up the ones you gave back to the teacher as soon as possible. Well, find out all the textbooks, and it's best to have a complete set for the entire high school stage. If you find it difficult, you can go back to school and ask the teacher. They'll love you to ask for advice. Hong Yan looked at Xiao Fang, a little distracted, and reminded.

Teacher Xiaofang was obviously shocked by the news of the college entrance examination. She hurriedly said a few words to Hong Yan and left with her little cousin. Song Youlan was polite, and she didn't forget to thank her when she left.

At dusk, all the workers returned home, and after seeing the rather majestic wolf dog with their own eyes, they all accepted her existence. The old ancestors quickly judged that the wolf dog was pregnant. In the evening, Li Yun also knocked an egg to welcome the wolf dog. The children are reluctant to eat one, but let a dog enjoy it.

"Alas, a son is not as good as a dog!" Hong Yan sighed. "What's good about raising a child, I forget my mother when I have a mother-in-law. How good the dog is, you see that she now wagging her tail when she sees me, she can still watch the house, and she can give birth to a baby. Li Yun slapped Hong Yan and taught him a lesson. More of a joke, of course.

Ask for collection clicks, ask for flowers and wine, all kinds of ask!
