Chapter Twenty-Seven: Summer Gets Tired and Crys
In early February, when Erlong raised his head, Summer cut his waist-length long hair into ear-length short hair, and combed his forehead with thicker Qi bangs. When she was with Su Meimei, she looked at the small short hair of about the same length and her body shape from the back, and she looked like a pair of sisters, originally Xia Aiguo was not happy that her daughter would harm such long hair, like a tomboy, but after cutting it, she didn't say anything when she saw the effect.
When the old lady saw the appearance of summer, she shouted that she was distressed, such a good braid, and the child said without blinking her eyes that she didn't want it. You said that the good girl combed such a small short head. But probably the summer growth is really good, even the old lady of the older generation, who think that combing braids is good-looking, has to admit that her little granddaughter has changed her hairstyle and looks more clever than before.
The bangs are the forehead of the small door curtain that the old lady said, a little blocking the small eyebrows, and a pair of watery phoenix eyes are like flashing with little wisdom, which strongly attracts the attention of others to these eyes. Coupled with the small face shape and other facial features, it shows that the age is very young, and it is full of softness.
The old lady touched her summer hair and couldn't stop boasting: "My little granddaughter is good, thanks to the new society, there is no robbery of the people's daughters or anything, like the big landlords or living bandits who occupy the mountains in the past, my little granddaughter wants to be like this, grandma has to worry about not being able to eat and sleep." ”
Summer smiled and listened to the old lady's praise, and her heart was extremely complacent. In the previous life, it was just an ordinary upper type.,It's a bit similar to what it looks like now.,But it's still too much worse.。 And in this life, she used the eyes of the beauties she often looked at in later generations to find fault with herself, and she felt that she was really good.
Xia Ling went to the county seat on the eighteenth day of the first month to report, and the sister-in-law came back on the first day to tell her a lot, and finally said in a very righteous tone: "We don't cause trouble, but we are not afraid of things." Your aunt and brother-in-law are staying in the same county seat as you. When you go to the factory, you are usually low-key and modest, but if you really encounter a place where you are wronged, you will go home to find your sister-in-law. Usually, if you have nothing to do in the factory, you will go home to eat. ”
The old man and Uncle Xia also had a deep discussion with Xia Ling on the issue of Xia Ling's temper.
Old man Xia's main meaning: Your grandfather and father are farmers, and there are a lot of children of cadres in the factory, so you don't have to be jealous of everything like your sister at home. You can't be jealous there, no one will give you a fight, and no one will not care about you like your sister. Talk less and do more, we who came out of the countryside must be down-to-earth.
Xia Ling, who listened, kept assuring good-naturedly. The two people in charge of the family let her go.
The eldest aunt Zheng Sancai also knew Xia Ling's temper, and asked her not to go to other people's houses to rest like her brother-in-law said, which was too troublesome. There are not only your sister-in-law and brother-in-law, but also two old people. Let her rather be bullied than suppress her temper.
Zheng Sancai thought about what the old man said, there are people with backgrounds in the factory, and they are better than her daughter who walked out of the countryside, and then she thinks of Xia Ling's temper, and she is really worried to death.
Thinking about it now, I originally felt that Summer was not as capable as her daughter Xia Ling, but her niece had a cold personality in Summer and didn't like to cause trouble, let alone talk about right and wrong! Only when the child is released can it be said that it is worry-free. But what about this? It's hard to say. It's better to let Xia Ling be a soldier at that time. What's the matter, the army environment is simple, and it's also simple to behave in the world. It's useless to think about it now, so I can only mumble to my daughter more and let her know the severity.
Xia Ling left the Xia family and went to the county seat amid everyone's grinding instructions. The village also slowly learned that Uncle Xia's family had a trip to the county seat to become a national worker. There are envy and jealousy in the village, but most of them are simple, and they feel that the children of the old Xia family are also very happy.
It is said that Xia Feng's mother-in-law scolded Sang at home for many days, saying that Uncle Xia's family was eccentric, and it didn't matter if the eldest girl was married out, not to mention work, she didn't even give her stuttering, and the words were particularly ugly.
The old lady who let go out to go to someone else's house to chat heard about it, and this time the old lady decided to take it herself. Her eldest daughter-in-law is really useless.
The old lady didn't even drink saliva when she came to the door, so she stood in front of Widow Li's house and asked loudly what was the matter with the things that had been given to her family all these years! One by one, from Xia Feng's marriage and return to her parents' house a few years ago, to the recent pregnancy and hunger, the child can't be saved, and she questioned repeatedly.
Only then did the people who watched the excitement in the vicinity of the village know about these things. The old lady asked everyone again, has her eldest son ever been a bully? Of course, everyone shook their heads to prove it.
She said that Widow Li was making trouble by herself, and her eldest son was talking about it as a secretary's bullying rhetoric. You said that you broke the news about these inside stories, at this time, she is usually good friends with Widow Li, and everyone who helped her pull her wife's tongue together turned around and attacked Widow Li for being unkind.
Later, the eldest brother-in-law rushed back to send the old lady back. In this way, the old lady's action this time made Widow Li a little afraid. The countryside is a big collective, and if you want to live well in a village, this reputation is still very important. If there are too many grievances, in the past, it was easy for the villagers to hold meetings and vote to drive out the people who had ruined the reputation of the village. She stopped, and Xia Feng also lived a stable life.
In the summer, she didn't go to her grandparents' house in the middle of the first month. Su Meili didn't know why her daughter was excited to be a soldier, but she was in a good mood and wanted to give her good mood to her mother's family. Of course, she wasn't so stupid that she hadn't decided to do it, so she took it out and said it. I just feel that the days will get better and better.
Just in time for her second sister's niece to get married, she went back to her parents' house to send her embroidered pillow towel as a celebration. As a result, I was in a good mood and went to the ground, but when I came back, my face was quite cold. Summer asked her mother what was wrong, and Su Meili was quite glad that she didn't bring a few children with her.
During this time of summer, I began to run 3,000 to 4,000 meters, and I was tired like a dead dog every day, and it hurt all over my body when I thought of walking with my legs for a long time to go to my grandfather's house. Su Meili let them go, and Xia Qiu naturally said that she didn't go to cook for her sister.
Su Meili replied: "Your second aunt's stomach is starting to feel uncomfortable again, I don't know what it's like, don't go to your sister when she gets married." Don't do anything to find our family again, our family doesn't help and rely on our family. ”
Summer felt that her mother had gone back to her grandmother's house to specify that something unpleasant had happened, and after asking a few times, her mother didn't say anything, so she didn't inquire. Her mother's life wisdom is higher than hers, and she has even experienced deep battles and battles, and she is full of experience, even if she knows anything, she can't come up with any good ideas.
In this way, when winter turned to spring and everything recovered, Uncle Xia began to organize everyone to start raising seedlings. When the seedlings grew small green shoots, the men, women and children of the whole village began to plow the land.
Before raking, you need to fertilize, which is dirty and tiring. In the eyes of others, she didn't do any heavy work in the summer, but she felt that she was too tired to straighten her waist.
Measure the number of meters and determine how much fertilizer is applied per mu. Before raking the ground, the straw must be burned together in piles and piles, otherwise the rice planting will not be able to flow through. In this way, the fat is finished, and this first time is called the end of the rake.
Do you think it's time to take a break in the summer? Uncle Xia organized everyone to start soaking in the fields. Someone has to be watching. In the summer, I wondered, why is there so much work?
To know that food is so hard, she must not waste Chinese food in her last life. As far as the state she can hold on to now, it is still because of the effect of being held by her brother every day to strengthen her body. I can't imagine that if she hadn't exercised, she would have to faint the first day and become the laughing talk of the village!
When it was time to plant the rice, all the men and women in the village, young and old, joined the rice planting campaign. Summer felt like her waist was about to break, and when she looked up at others with a bitter little dirty face, she found that her speed was the slowest in the village. Her grandmother was much faster than she was.
My little friend Wang Xiaofang just looked up and saw Summer's expression and shouted: "Summer, if you can't do it, you can rest, and I'll help you when I'm done." "She is kind-hearted, and her concern for her friends has made her forget her usual shyness. As soon as he shouted, everyone nearby listened to it brightly, and then looked up to observe Summer.
If you want to cry without tears in summer, do you want to do this? How can you look at me with a wretched expression? I'm really trying, okay? She's really never had a day like this. Every morning at four o'clock in the morning, I go to the field, and at noon I eat on the ground. Her mother worked even harder, and she had to run home to cook and bring it over.
Summer has the heart to help her mother, but she doesn't have that power. It seems that the son is reliable at the critical moment. Her brother is like a rice transplanter in later generations, and the speed is swishing.
Summer raised her hand to wipe her sweat. Her face is now worse than when she laughed at Xia Dong's little mud child. It is estimated that it has already been a black mark. Sweat and ash, almost muddy.
After a day's work, Summer showed a pitiful expression to her grandparents, and the corners of her mouth smiled far-fetched. didn't even have the strength to thank Wang Xiaofang, so Xia Dong's little kid looked at her with contemptuous eyes, grabbed her arm, and limped home.
When he entered the house, he didn't wash anything, so he poured it on the kang. I don't know why, I feel depressed and powerless. She has just been working for a few days, so she is a soldier and left, what can her father and brother, and grandparents do at such an age? It's so tiring, it's going to kill you! She wept like joy and sorrow.
Xia Dong entered the house and wanted to call her sister up. He helped to enter the house and bring his sister face wash. You said that in the image of his sister, it was worse than the usual day when he played with hidden cats and cats climbing up and down trees.
As far as he is a person who doesn't love beauty, he thinks it's unreasonable to hang that dirty face and not wash it, but his sister can not dislike herself and bury herself, and just pour it down. He especially wanted to use his sister's usual tone to teach him to pay attention to hygiene, but before he could shout, he heard his sister's whine.
Xia Dong lightly put the basin away, and crept out to close the door of his sister's house.
When I went out, I didn't tell anyone, and his sister was crying. He analyzed it himself, he was embarrassed to be known by others when he was eight years old, not to mention his sister seventeen, he had to keep it a secret.
The little man sat at the door of the outhouse, shaking the branch in his hand and began to think about what to do. His sister is a backward person at work, so she has no face. How can I help her and keep her from crying?
