For dinner that day, Zhou Yang's three siblings still ate millet porridge poached eggs in their own house. Zhou Wanwan didn't know how to solve the dinner of the Zhou family, Zhou Chen and Zhou Yang stayed in the Westinghouse all day, ignoring everyone in the Zhou family unscrupulously, and eating eggs did not deliberately hide from anyone.

The current Zhou Yang brothers have no scruples about the Zhou family, they do whatever they want, and there is even an obvious provocation in their behavior. The millet porridge in the morning was cooked by Zhou Chen with an axe to break the lock and cook the grain himself, and now he doesn't like anyone in the Zhou family, let alone sit at the same table with them to eat.

Everyone in the Zhou family didn't know whether they were too busy to take care of themselves or were ashamed, anyway, no one came to disturb the three of them, and of course, no one cared about these children who had suddenly changed dramatically.

"Little Er, you will go to school after the New Year." That night, Zhou Yang decided Zhou Chen's studies with an unquestionable attitude. At this time, the school year is still in the spring, so the end of the new school year coincides with the beginning of the new school year.

Zhou Chen was silent, his inner desire and his mother's expectations made him look forward to going to school, but reality did not allow him to go to school without scruples.

"Don't worry, the eldest brother can support us by working alone." Zhou Yang seriously told Zhou Chen that he had already calculated the account, "The eldest brother now earns second-class work, and he can earn more than fifty yuan a year, and we can eat food for two and a half people, which is less than fifty yuan a year, and the remaining few yuan is enough for you to go to elementary school." ”

Seeing that Zhou Chen's expression was still hesitant, Zhou Yang continued to settle accounts for him, "After two years, when you are older, you will be able to receive one person's food, and your eldest brother will be able to earn first-class work, enough to feed you two!"

Besides, we still have money to sell mountain goods, and if we save it slowly, we can't delay the school of Nannan, and it is enough for you to go to the commune and go to school in the county. You don't have to worry about that, you don't go to school, and the money you earn can't be spent on us. We're not going to do stupid things like earning money for others to spend. ”

Zhou Yang slowly enlightened his younger brother, in fact, he was also talking to himself, the more he spoke, the more determined his tone became, and the more resolute the look in his eyes became, "We don't need a penny from anyone, who dares to say anything, we are not afraid, it's a big deal, let's let my father break up!" Let's move out. Although he was disappointed in Zhou Chunliang's father, the consciousness that they and his father were a family has always been deeply buried in Zhou Yang's heart, and until now he is planning to let his father separate and leave with their brothers and sisters.

"Hmm." Zhou Chen nodded heavily, choked up and could barely speak. "Back then, my mother wanted to move out with us, but if she really left at that time, she couldn't do ......anything in the future," Zhou Chen said that in order to let Zhou Yang go to school, Li Xiuhua would rather divorce and take the children alone than give in.

"Move out and live on your own! Let's do it! Zhou Wanwan hurriedly echoed Zhou Yang, the three of them moved out of the Zhou family, the eldest brother and the second brother are not psychologically ready for this matter, and they can't do it overnight, but they must plant seeds in the hearts of Zhou Yang and the brothers, and when Zhou Wanwan finds an opportunity to split up in the future, the two brothers can take the initiative to cooperate with her.

"What about Daddy? Don't you want a daddy? Zhou Yang touched his sister's head lovingly, looking at her little pouting and humming.

"Daddy doesn't get along with us. Dad is only good with his grandmother and aunt. Zhou Wanwan lowered her eyes, her long eyelashes curled thickly, making her more like a doll, and the words she said seemed to be childish words, but it shocked Zhou Yang to no longer have the mood to joke.

"Hello to the eldest brother and second brother, let's do it." Zhou Chen hurriedly coaxed his sister, after his mood slowly stabilized, the more he thought about it, the more he regretted it, they were too careless to his sister last night, if his sister was frightened or something happened because of yesterday's incident, he would regret it for the rest of his life.

"Big brother will take you Feifeifei, okay?" Zhou Yang put Zhou Wanwan's arm and lifted her up, wholeheartedly trying to make her happy.

It's not urgent to do this now. Zhou Wanwan suppressed her anxiety while playing games with her brothers. If the brothers can't completely cut off the father-son love for Zhou Chunliang psychologically, then she won't have much effect. After all, although Zhou Chunliang is indifferent and irresponsible to several children, he has not done anything so intense that it makes them completely cold on the surface, so he can't be anxious yet, and he must not be anxious......

The most important thing is that Zhou Wanwan would rather take more detours by herself and exert a lot of effort, rather than force the two brothers to make any decisions. Her two older brothers are so miserable, if she, as a younger sister, can't think about them wholeheartedly and take into account their feelings, then who else can do this for them?

"What grade is the second brother in?" After playing for a while, Zhou Yang talked to Zhou Chen about going to school again, Zhou Wanwan immediately thought of this practical problem, Zhou Chen was only in the second grade when he dropped out of school, and now he is eleven years old, and I am afraid that it will be a little late to go to the second grade.

"Little two, don't do anything tomorrow, go to Mr. Li to make up the lessons, let Mr. Li take a test when school starts, how many grades can I go to, and then learn slowly, don't worry, you are admitted to Beijing and the big brother will also provide you with it." Zhou Yang solemnly told his younger brother, as if he had been thinking about these things for a long time, but in fact, there was only a few hours between the decision to let Zhou Chen go to school and plan these things.

With the thin shoulders of his fourteen-year-old young man, Zhou Yang once again firmly shouldered the responsibility of being the eldest brother in the hardships of life.

It seems that all the grievances, anger, unwillingness, and grief that he experienced just yesterday have been cleaned up, and then he uses his selfless love for his younger brothers and sisters to transform into a barrier to protect them, and he is the eldest brother who stands in front of his younger brothers and sisters like a mountain to shield them from the wind and rain.

However, no one knew that at this moment, deep in Zhou Yang's heart, he realized like never before that it was not him taking care of his younger siblings, but his younger siblings supporting him, making him move forward firmly, and giving him the courage to face all difficulties and setbacks.

In fact, many times he will be afraid, and he will be weak in the dead of night, but the existence of his younger brothers and sisters makes him strong, so that he has no time to care about him and can only rush forward regardless of it, so that there is no fear in his eyes.

Tribulation and growth always go hand in hand, and only those who stand up bravely in the midst of tribulation have the opportunity to experience a fearless life.

From this moment on, in Zhou Yang's later life, no matter what he encountered, he could deal with it calmly, because he had already overcome the deepest suffering when he was young.

"I don't need to make up for arithmetic, I can calculate Zhao Dazhuang's fourth-grade math problems," Speaking of going to school, Zhou Chen's words also increased, "As far as the Chinese is almost good, I have to let Teacher Li teach me to recognize more Braille." ”

As for the other three courses of physical education, music, and drawing, the primary school teachers of the brigade are limited, and basically let the children herd sheep in class, and there is no actual content. In the fourth grade, there will be three courses: nature, history, and geography, and now you can ignore it.

"Well, let's not be in a hurry, how much can we learn, and the days will be long in the future." Zhou Yang was afraid that his younger brother would be anxious and tired of himself, so he hurriedly told him his plan, and he made up his mind to let his younger brother continue to read.

"Well," Zhou Chen choked and nodded, unlike the tears of the past two days, Zhou Chen's choked up this time with joy and motivation, "I must study hard!" ”

"Give Mr. Li tuition!" Zhou Wanwan hurriedly reminded his brothers. She knew Teacher Li's situation very well in her previous life, the old and young in the family, and the daughter-in-law's health was not good, all supported by Teacher Li's meager salary, but he was very serious in teaching, and in his previous life until Zhou Wanwan died, Teacher Li was almost seventy years old, and he was still standing on the podium of the Erdaokan Brigade Primary School.

In his previous life, Mr. Li took great care of Zhou Wanwan, once Mrs. Zhou took advantage of Zhou Yang to go to work in other communes, and insisted that Zhou Wanwan drop out of school and go to the county seat to serve Qian Gang confinement daughter-in-law, or Mr. Li forced Zhou Wanwan out of Mrs. Zhou's hands.

Later, every time Zhou Wanwan went to school, Teacher Li was very concerned, and when she was admitted to university, she specially boiled a few eggs and brought them to her......

Every winter vacation, Mr. Li plays hemp rope at home and sells it to the supply and marketing cooperatives to subsidize the family, and teaching Zhou Chen will definitely delay his work, although Mr. Li doesn't care about these, but they have the ability to repay or should repay it.

Fortunately, rural children don't pay attention to education, and there are basically no students like Zhou Chen who ask Teacher Li to make up classes during the holidays, otherwise, Zhou Wanwan believes that if he puts down his work and doesn't do it, Teacher Li will also take care of the children first.

"Do you know the cost of tuition?" Zhou Chen was in a good mood, and began to tease his sister again, "You say, how much tuition do you give Teacher Li?" ”

"Ten eggs, give one more to Mr. Li with a pheasant!" Teacher Li will never ask for money. His family has little labor, and he can't raise pigs, so sending more meat can also replenish the body of the thin teacher Li. And there are not many of these things, so they won't attract much attention from others, and Mr. Li doesn't have any burden to put them away.

Send these first, the coming day will be long, and the kindness of the previous life will always have to find an opportunity to repay it every night.

"Okay, just send it as you say!" Zhou Yang gently touched his sister's soft little curly hair, and his heart was sad and proud. His little sister is so smart and beautiful, if there is a mother's love and teaching, what a smart and happy little doll she must be......

Early the next morning, Zhou Yang went to the East House to serve two large bowls of millet porridge, took four mixed noodles steamed buns, and Zhou Chen used a brazier to burn an egg for Zhou Wanwan, and the three brothers and sisters still ate alone in the West House.

Breakfast was made by Shen Yufen, Wang Fengying and Zhou Juan were still lying on the kang, one was inexplicably in severe pain all over her body and couldn't get up from the kang, and the other had a swollen face like a pig's head and didn't dare to see anyone, leaving Shen Yufen with a woman who was not affected.

Originally, she couldn't do anything with her nine-month-old belly, but Old Man Zhou wanted to eat, and Old Man Zhou, who couldn't eat, scolded people more viciously than Old Lady Zhou, Shen Yufen was completely defeated after a day of delay, and could only clumsily move her severely swollen legs and feet to cook for the family.

The big cabinet of grain was smashed open by Zhou Chen's axe yesterday morning, and Shen Yufen simply didn't wronged herself, she could eat whatever she wanted. Anyway, the food saved has also entered other people's mouths, what else does she have to save!

Everyone in the Zhou family watched Zhou Yang take away a lot more food than usual, without even looking at them, and then looked at his back as straight as a javelin, and they all closed their mouths in recognition.

Qian Lei looked at the few steamed buns left in the basin, and slapped Zhou Xia's trembling steamed buns that were about to be sent to his mouth, and took them into his hands.

Zhou Xia screamed, she was injured by Zhou Chen the night before yesterday, she didn't get up from the kang yesterday, and she got up to eat this morning when she was really hungry. Now she has pain all over her body, especially her wrist, which is swollen and swollen, most likely a contusion. was beaten by Qian Lei, Zhou Xia couldn't hold back anymore, and cried wow.

Zhou Xia was crying while looking at Zhou Yang who was walking out, Zhou Yang didn't hear it, and opened the door without a trace of hesitation and walked out.

The Zhou family began to eat with their heads bored, and even in the eyes of most of them, Li Xiuhua's death could be blamed entirely on her ignorance and bad luck. But after they saw the fists of the Zhou Chen brothers after their rage, they didn't dare to say these words anymore. These two half-sized children are not vegetarians, and they really realized this for the first time.

After breakfast, Zhou Chunfa hurried to the infrastructure construction team, ignoring his wife, daughter and sister lying on the kang.

None of them are worry-free things, so you know that if something happens to you, you will affect yourself. Zhou Chun went out with a snort, there was such a humiliating thing at home, he had to work actively and perform well, otherwise it would be bad if it affected his future.

And he had to go to the commune to shake the phone to the Gancha River, so that the three brothers would come back quickly, the line was not good yesterday, and he left it halfway, and I don't know if the operator heard it clearly.

Mrs. Zhou's affairs need people to run before and after, and it is not easy for him as a cadre to come forward. Not to mention anything else, the commune's little black house doesn't care about food. They didn't come back, and Zhou Fu and Zhou Jun were frightened by Yang Gaozhi again, and refused to enter the commune compound again, and there was not even a person to deliver food at home. Delay for a few more days, Mrs. Zhou, don't starve to death without explaining the problem clearly! As soon as the reputation of this starving mother came out, the whole commune had to chew the root of their tongues, and when the time came, what would he do to shake the prestige of the state cadres!

Qian just finished eating the rice in the bowl, and then looked at the rice bowl that had already been empty, and was so angry that he slammed the bowl. It's so unbelievable! They didn't finish the steamed buns before they finished eating! They haven't eaten yet!

"Go home! Tell our mom! They don't leave me steamed buns! Five-year-old Qian Lei has raised a lot of meat at his grandmother's house these days, and he has baby fat on his face, "They also steal eggs!" Don't give it to me! Although he was only five years old, with his intuition, Qian Lei also knew that Brother Zhou Yang was not easy to mess with now, so he only dared to whisper to his brother and sister, and glanced at the door a little timidly after speaking.

Affected by Qian Lei, the other three children of the Qian family also glanced at the door nervously.

"Go home! This old countryside is buried, what is there to treat the land! Qian Tie also advocated going home, he had already thought about a group of friends in the county, and he didn't know what fun they were thinking about now. If he hadn't been reluctant to give up the good food at his grandmother's house, he would have left early.

Several people were so angry in their hearts that they didn't want to treat them so badly, they didn't wait! Go home! How the hell are you going to clean up these dirt buns when you see it!

After putting on new clothes, Qian Gang went to get a noodle pocket again, every time they left from grandma's house, they took things with big bags and small bags, and now there is no grandma to Zhang Luo, and the old aunt is lying on the kang and humming, they will do it themselves!

The money had just been filled with half a pocket of wheat, and a small bag of white flour was found in the corner of the cabinet, and it was immediately packed. This must be what his grandmother is going to give them to make dumplings for the New Year!

Several children of the Qian family carried a bag of grain on their backs, and were about to go to the warehouse to get pork, and met Zhou Jun who came back from outside.

Qian Yan couldn't suppress her anger the most, so she scolded Zhou Jun when she opened her mouth, and sprinkled all her anger on Zhou Jun's family.

Zhou Jun was still a little confused, and when he figured out that they were going to get pork, he immediately stopped doing it, "We don't have enough pork to eat at home!" What did you take from me? ”

"You rural buns, you still want to eat pork? Do you have that life? "I have to say that Qian Yan really got the true biography of Zhou Hongying, and even her thinking is the same.

"Erle, our family doesn't have enough food to eat," Shen Yufen held her waist with one hand and the door frame with the other, and carefully stood in the door of the West House and said to Zhou Jun, "If they are allowed to carry such a big bag of wheat on their backs, our family will have to drink slimy paste every day in the future, like the steamed buns this morning, we will never be able to eat again." ”

"Uh-huh! Don't take the wheat! Zhou Jun took a sip of rhubarb snot and waved his hand at the children of the Qian family nonchalantly, "Don't take anything, we have to eat ourselves!" ”

"How old are you? This is my grandmother's house! You can't care about what I give us! You wait for my grandma to come back and don't clean you up! Qian Yan crossed her waist and pointed at Zhou Jun's nose and scolded.

Speaking of Mrs. Zhou, Zhou Jun's eyes didn't dare to look at the children of the Qian family, and Shen Yufen also closed her mouth.

"Your grandma is now arrested by the government and sent to a small black house, and she will have to be criticized in a few days, do you know when she will come back?" I don't know when, Zhou Chen stood at the door of the West House, crossed his arms and looked coldly at the four children of the Qian family, "Which big clove of garlic are you?" Come and be the master of our old Zhou family? Stuff for me to put down! If you want to go, hurry up! Running our old man is here? Eating for nothing and living for nothing are still addicted? ”

"I* your mother! Who do you say eats for nothing!? Qian Tie was annoyed and angry by Zhou Chen's words, and the strength he learned from a few little hooligans in the county town immediately came up, and he was about to rush up and beat Zhou Chen with his arms crossed. (To be continued.) )
