The mother's family is a native of Shannan, and the mountain referred to locally is naturally Sibao Mountain, at that time, the mountain is very small, and there are few people in Shannan and Shanbei. Her ancestors were blacksmiths, it is said that they are a family of weapons, good at the creation of hook and sickle guns, to modern times, cold weapons are gradually replaced by hot weapons, her family skills are slowly lost, to the huge mother married, her father, that is, the huge grandfather, according to the style of the hook and sickle gun was transformed, to his daughter to create a pair of fire hooks with the nature of weapons. On the surface, this pair of fire hooks looks a bit like a normal fire hook, but it is not exactly the same, and what is more special is that the material of this pair of fire hooks is not like steel and iron, which is extremely hard. The weight is lighter than ordinary iron, and it is very easy to hold in the hand, which can burn the fire and defend oneself, and it is not a controlled knife such as a sword prohibited by the state. Xiao Taohong later got married and opened a restaurant with Liu Cripple, which made this pair of fire hooks, and her fame also came from this pair of fire hooks. As long as her apricot eyes are open, angry eyes, and both hands are clenched with fire hooks, no one is afraid, no matter how strong the man sees her posture, especially the pair of fire hooks that make a clangling sound, it is daunting, and the new life is comfortable, her cold expression, her tight lips, and especially her breezy red clothes, give people a mysterious and inoffensive majesty. Whenever this kind of scene occurs in the hotel, the troublemakers laugh a few times, muttering clichés about good men not fighting with women, and honestly taking out the money to settle the bill and leave. Little Peach will also push the boat down the river, give a smile, the two sides turn the fight into jade silk, before leaving, Little Peach no matter whether she suffers a loss or gets cheap, she throws a box of good cigarettes to the troublemaker, so that most of the guests will still come back to eat. Little Peach is a large number of adults, never bothering with the guests who have made trouble, and sometimes, they will take special care of it, which makes the East Kidnapper Hotel more and more repeat customers. That's all for later, so let's not talk about it for now.

It was Sunday. The early spring sun warms people's bodies and minds. Dang Niang got up early to freshen up, because today is a good day, her mother brought a letter, saying that her nephew is getting married today and needs to go to congratulate him, and his name is 'Tian Fan'. At that time, the conditions were not good, the people's living standards were low, and real relatives like this had to steam white flour buns. Generally, a large basket is used, a large layer of dried sweet potatoes is loaded underneath, and the top layer is flat with a layer of white bread, there are six, there are eight, this is the highest gift. The huge mother's family is not good, and the relatives know that the husband is sick all the year round, and it is still a tuberculosis that is difficult to treat. One pant and two pairs of heads, unable to do heavy work. Even if the production team takes care of him and lets him see the field or something, he can't earn a few jobs. Everyone is just as poor. Huge Niang cooked early, took care of the big man after eating, went to the team with crutches, casually took a few nests, at noon and at night, the old Li Tou who simply fed the livestock made a few meals in the breeding house of the production team, the province ran back and forth, the community field is half a mile away from home, ordinary people walk this half a mile without realizing anything, but he is a tuberculosis seedling, walk ten steps and twenty steps to sit down and take two breaths, if not, he will have to suffocate. Therefore, Master Da always kept his horse tied with a thin rope and carried it diagonally on his body like a soldier's back gun. Sit down and rest anytime and anywhere, and now many elderly people in the countryside are still like this.

Dang Niang had breakfast and told Dang and his youngest daughter Xiao Taohong that they must be optimistic about Pang Er. The first is that he can't be told to run out and cause trouble, and the second is that he can't hurt himself, throw a stone out, and hit other people's children, he must go to other people's children to see the injuries. He was still stone, very poorly directional, sometimes still very far away, sometimes still very high, falling vertically beside him. Once, he smashed it on his head. The blood from the smash ran from his head to his neck, almost killing him.

The sun is about to set, and the three huge brothers and sisters waited early outside the Tuweizi outside the village, looking forward to the return of their mothers, who can bring back something delicious, and generally return two steamed buns, which is what the three brothers and sisters are waiting for.

The little peach eyes were sharp, she climbed to the height of the earthen fence, looked south, and saw an old woman from afar, carrying a big basket and wrapping a towel around her head, isn't that a mother? She hurriedly slipped down from the earthen fence, ran to her brother, and said happily: "Mother is back, look, over there." Following the direction of her finger, Pang Er also vaguely saw the figure of his mother, Pang Er also screamed, I don't know what he called, in short, he was happy to see others happy, others cried, he was also happy, and he gritted his teeth and smiled, or how to call it stupid.

The mother's figure is still very clear, Pangda took his sister's hand, Pang Er followed behind, the three brothers and sisters ran to their mother happily, and Pangda took over his mother's basket. The huge mother bent down to pick up her little daughter, patted Pang Er's shoulder, and the family of four walked home happily. Many people in the village saw the smile of the big mother, knowing that she was happy, and they all greeted him, and the big mother agreed one by one, and carried the little daughter into her own house. When he arrived at the house, Xiao Taohong broke down and closed the door, and then he opened the red envelope on the basket, and there were two white buns in it. The brothers snatched it, the basket shook, and a slippery thing wrapped in paper in the basket turned over in the cage, and the little peach was very curious, and reached out to pick it up to see, I had never seen it, what is this?

"That's jelly beans" Dang Niang took off the guest's new clothes and put on her usual clothes, he told Sù Dang: "Just a jelly bean, you can eat it separately, lick it with your tongue and lick it sweet." Although she said so, she didn't want to taste what kind of sweetness it was. The person who went to congratulate him today, each family shared a jelly bean, which is already a great thing, he is a mother, how can he be willing to eat it himself, so that the children can eat something good, look at the children's relishing of the food, and be a mother is already satisfied. Hey, this is my mother, I did everything possible to think about my daughters, but that child did everything possible to think about my mother? This is in line with the old saying: There are ruthless children, but there are no ruthless fathers and mothers.

Huge slowly peeled off the candy wrapper, revealing a round, brownish jelly bean. Huge is a good brother, and he first took the jelly bean in his right hand and sent it to his sister Pink's mouth. Little Peach stretched out her little red tongue, licked the jelly beans a few times, and then jumped up on the floor with both feet, raised her hands above her head, and clapped her hands on them: "Jelly beans are so sweet." Her body rotated slightly, her head kept shaking, her two pigtails fluttered and swayed, especially the two red bows, which danced in the air in an orderly manner with the rhythm of her clapping hands, this was the happiest day she had ever grown, because she tasted sugar for the first time.

Huge took the jelly beans and wanted to ask Pang Er to lick a few bites, but Pang Eryi reached out and grabbed the jelly beans in his hand, and before Pang Er could reflect it, Pang Er had already sent the jelly beans to his mouth, with a big mouth, and there was a "coo" sound, and the jelly beans had already fallen into his stomach. Huge startled, hurriedly came over, opened his mouth and reached out to pick it in his mouth, but Pang Er bit his finger and only screamed in pain. Xiao Peach is still experienced, and reached out to pinch Pang Er's nose hard, Pang Er had to open his mouth to gasp, and then he took the opportunity to pull out his hand.

The huge hand hurt, and he didn't eat the sugar, he was anxious, and he didn't know where he got the strength, so he pressed Pang Er down on the kang, told him to lie on his back with his face to the sky, and told his sister Xiao Taohong: "Sit on your stomach, hurry up." ”

Xiao Taohong sat on Pang Er's stomach according to her brother's instructions, stood up straight, and jumped down, Pang Er was panting heavily, regardless of these, staring at Pang Er's mouth with both eyes, hoping that the jelly beans could be spit out from there. The sky backfired, and Little Pink kicked hard three times, but the jelly beans still didn't come out, and the huge one ordered: "Stand up and kick with your feet." Little Peach was not ambiguous, jumped up from the kang, stepped on Pang Er's stomach with both feet, Pang Er screamed in pain, the jelly beans still couldn't come out, Little Peach came again, and the jelly beans didn't come out yet. Suddenly, Xiao Taohongjue's taste was wrong, so she hurriedly looked at Pang Er's cheek, it was broken, and the came out. But Jelly Bean is still gone, scratching his ears and cheeks in a huge hurry, what should I do? At this moment, Dang Niang heard Pang Er's screams, came from the small shed next to her that specialized in cooking, and knew what was going on when she saw the posture of the three children. She took Xiao Taohong off the kang and told her to put on her shoes, and Pang Er got this opportunity, turned over and jumped off the kang, escaped with a smoke, stayed outside the gate, and never dared to go home.

The big mother touched Pang Er's garden head, wiped away the tears of grievance for him, took out a steamed bun from the basket and stuffed it into his hand, comforting him: "The jelly bean paper belongs to you, you eat a whole bun, and the other one is eaten separately." After speaking, he brought household goods and cleaned up the thin that Pang Er pulled on the kang mat.

The little peach watched her brother eat buns, and she only smashed her mouth greedily: dry swallowing and foaming. Huge didn't pity him, turned to the wall to eat the bun, Dang Niang didn't blame Dang, and took out the last bun from the basket, broke a slightly larger one to the little peach, and carefully put the remaining small half into the cage and left it for the ignorant stupid son. Smart or stupid, there is a mother in the world who doesn't want her son to be the emperor.

Xiao Taohong was reluctant to eat the half of the white-flour bun in both hands, and the big mother urged her: "Hurry up and eat it, your second brother will come back and grab it in a while, you won't be able to catch it at all, and the jelly beans are a good witness." After listening to her mother's words, Xiao Taohong was really worried that the second brother would come to rob her, so she hurriedly ate it. After a while, I ate a clean light. He smashed his mouth, savoring the fragrance of steamed buns, and delusionally imagined that one day, he could eat white steamed buns in one meal, how good it would be, it would be the days of the gods in the sky!

The next day, Da Da arrived at school early to wipe the blackboard as usual, and after Li Erfa finished his homework, the two of them sat in their respective seats and waited for class. Probably because of his heavy mood, he took out the candy paper from his schoolbag to watch.

When Li Er saw it, he hurriedly stepped forward to watch and asked about the origin of the candy wrapper. After listening to the huge narration and looking at the boxy wax candy paper, Li Er not only had a heart: "I said huge, don't you want to cure that stupidity?" ”

Huge said: "Why don't you want to, but what's the way?" ”

Li Er was clever and came up with a good idea. It turns out that the Piyu (nicknamed Pi Donkey) sitting in a row behind them has a bright steel egg, all day long when the baby touches the eggs with the glass balls of the classmates, you think, the whole class is a glass egg, and the bounce is not as far as his steel egg, and he does not dare to hit the hard hard pick when he collides with the teeth, so everyone loses to the leather donkey. Li Er thought about it, and asked the leather donkey to take out the steel egg, let the huge one wrap it in a candy wrapper, and pretended to be a jelly bean, inducing Pang Er to bite it hard with his teeth, telling him to pull his teeth down, so as to give the big one this evil breath. Thinking about it, this is a good method. As soon as the donkey arrived, the two of them came over to discuss with the donkey, and at first the donkey didn't agree, but he couldn't stand Li Er's earnest teaching, and agreed to this plan of action after a while. Everyone wants to see something lively.

After school in the afternoon, the sun is still more than two poles high, and now it is about half past four in spring. At that time, there were few primary school courses, with two main subjects, Chinese and arithmetic, and few other physical education and music. So school ends very early in the afternoon, and the primary school students at that time are basically playing.

First, the leather donkey carefully took out the steel egg and showed it to Li Erda and the two of them. Even Little Pink made an exception and touched the steel egg with her slender fingers. The steel egg was shiny and heavy, much heavier than a glass egg, and rolled on the ground, shining like a silver bead. Especially under the afterglow of the sunset, it is even more lifelike and very lovely. Huge took out the paper and handed it to Li Er. Li Er took these two things in his hands, knowing that he had a heavy responsibility, and he was even more careful, he first spread the candy paper flat on the desk, and then carefully put the steel egg boy in the center of the candy paper, and then gently rolled up the two sides of the candy paper, and then slowly tightened it from both ends with his hands. After all, it is a steel egg of a leather donkey, and the value of this object is too heavy, he has the right to take it in his hand as a matter of course, checked it, put it on his nose and smelled it, and played with it in his hand, this is Li Er's turn, Li Er just pretended to put this fake jelly bean in his mouth and bit it hard with his teeth, and then pretended to be a strange appearance of losing his teeth, which made everyone look very happy, attracting laughter from many classmates. Among them, there is a boy named Fat Bean, who is also from Dongguizizhuang, and his family conditions are better, he also wants to play with this fake candy in his hand, but he is pushed away by the leather donkey: "Come less, what are you?" "It doesn't matter if it's just this push, it has laid the foundation for him in the future, and we'll talk about it later. First of all, Li Er handed over the fake jelly beans to Dafang, put them in the palm of his hand, held his hands flat, and let the fake thing roll in his hand a few times, and then asked Xiao Taohong to call his younger brother Pang Er. Soon, Xiao Taohong led Pang Er to everyone. Huge took out the fake jelly beans and pretended to open them and fill them in his mouth, but Pang Er's eyes lit up, regardless of three seven twenty-one, he rushed forward, snatched the fake jelly beans with his hand, opened his big mouth, and swallowed them in his stomach unequivocally, everyone was blindfolded, he didn't bite with his teeth, let alone gnawed his teeth. As soon as the leather donkey saw this scene, he hurriedly stepped forward to break his stinky mouth to see, in addition to a yellow tongue and teeth in the mouth, the steel egg was gone, he was anxious to get back the steel egg, so he reached out to Pang Er's mouth to pick it, but oops, Pang Er bit the second thumb, the pain was so painful that he jumped and jumped, but he couldn't pull it out, the little peach hurriedly stepped forward, pinched Pang Er's nose with his hand, Pang Er opened his mouth and gasped, and the leather donkey's second thumb was able to escape.

The drama is smashed, the steel egg is gone, do you think that is the lifeblood of the leather donkey, can he do it well? He first asked the huge want, the huge five short figure, sat on the ground, closed his eyes, a dead pig is not afraid of boiling water, no matter how the leather donkey kicks and scolds, just don't say anything, talk about the pile. The leather donkey couldn't do it, so the leather donkey had to give up the huge and attack Li Er.

Li Ergang wanted to slip away, but was grabbed by the collar of his clothes by a leather donkey, "Give me back the steel eggs." ”

Li Er broke free of the donkey's hand and quibbled: "The steel egg is not what I eat, you ask me if I want it, who eats it, you look for whom." ”

Of course, the donkey didn't break up: "You said that I was asked to take out steel eggs to make two teeth." ”

Li Eryi stiffened his neck: "What do I tell you to do?" Guarding the face of so many classmates, will I call you my father in the future? ”

"Hahaha......." The dozen or so students who were watching laughed together, and some even laughed to tears.

"Dad, I want steel eggs," the donkey's face turned red, and while calling Li Er's father, he stretched out his hand in front of Li Er. Li Er was stunned, he didn't expect the leather donkey to come to this hand, he stepped back at the moment, turned around to run, but was pulled by the fat bean, the son of a bitch, didn't run, and called the leather donkey to grab the arm.

The leather donkey stared at the blood-red eyes and shouted at Li Er: "Dad! In the future, I will call you father, and you will take the steel egg from my hand and return the steel egg to me. ”

The classmates talked a lot, and some of them went to the leather donkey, saying that Li Erhuge and the two should return the steel eggs. Li Er's huge few good friends stood up to pull the leather donkey away, and a few slightly older children were discussing, preparing to forcibly snatch Li Er from the leather donkey and escape together. Li Er understood that the brothers were doing it for their own good, but they couldn't do that. He shook his head, stopped them, and thanked them with a grateful look. At this time, he seemed very calm, tried his best to relax his tone, and said: "Steel eggs are actually okay, do you think, can Pang Er's stomach turn iron?" The steel egg is made of steel, and it takes a red stove to melt the steel egg, don't worry, the steel egg can't be broken in Pang Er's stomach, at most, won't he give it to you when he poops out tomorrow? You let go of your hand first. ”

Sitting on the ground, listening to Li Er's words, he also understood in his heart. Yes, it's true that the steel egg made Pang Er eat it, but he can't just eat it and not pull it, at most, it won't be all right if he pulls it out tomorrow and returns it to the leather donkey, it's useless to be in a hurry, and it's not on this night. Huge took the initiative to step forward, grabbed the hand of the leather donkey, took him off Li Er's arm, patted his chest and promised: I will return the steel egg to you tomorrow, the leather donkey reluctantly accepted the reality in front of him, and there was no way to do it.

There is a female classmate in the class named Wang Shengli, his father is a cadre of the village brigade, and he didn't see his daughter go home after dark, so he came to the school. As a result, evil was born. It turned out that a few days ago, the only round of rubber-tyred carts on the village was oiled, please come to the staff of the township agricultural technology station to repair, at that time the bearing was a rare thing, the people who farmed the land had never seen, the car repairer unloaded the bearing, soaked the steel egg in the lamp oil to clean, because the oil sludge was too thick, it could not be opened for a while, the maintenance personnel took the opportunity to pee, there was leeward, the maintenance personnel smoked a bag of cigarettes there, and assembled the bearing after returning, there was one less steel egg, looking around, only one less was loaded, the original manure was full, Now there is one less bead, and only half of the cart can be loaded, and the rest is pushed into the ground by manual carts. Nowadays, it doesn't matter if there is one less steel ball, but at the time it was a big deal. This steel egg is the leather donkey went out to chop vegetables and stole it when he saw that it was unattended, but as soon as this fat bean said this, Wang Shengli and his father immediately slapped his thigh, what is this? This is a class struggle, it is sabotage of production, this is worth it, children stealing steel eggs, must be instigated by adults behind the scenes, this matter must be dug deep and studied carefully, dig out the hidden class enemies, and deal a head-on blow to the bad elements of sabotage. It's really unintentional for the speaker, but intentional for the listener.

That night, Wang Shengli and her father convened a meeting of the cadres of the brigade to discuss the matter of holding a criticism meeting. To criticize the donkey and his father, it is a matter of importance. Li Er's father, who also served in the brigade, did not agree to exaggerate the situation infinitely. He had two reasons. One is the donkey, his father joined the Red Army in his early years, and he contributed to the Liberation War, not an enemy. The second is that her family has three generations of poor people and a clean history. Besides, catching thieves and catching stolen goods, where is the steel egg? A group of children are fooling around, and they can't be taken seriously, but they must be based on real evidence. Several other members of the brigade also agreed with Li Er's father's opinion. Therefore, at the end of the meeting, there was no decision to criticize the donkey for tomorrow. Wang Shengli's father secretly shouted that he wanted to get the stolen goods; What else do other cadres have to say? That night, the meeting of the cadres of the brigade was not long over, and the dog in the village barked. Originally, there were nine relatives in ten families in the countryside, and someone had already reported to the donkey father, and the matter was urgent. The donkey's father sent the relative away, and immediately pulled the donkey off the kang and slapped him twice. In the end, it was the donkey that was careful and instructed her son to stay for half a night. The next day, he changed his tune and said that there was never a steel egg, it was just a high-grade porcelain. Fat Bean got Wang Shengli's instructions from her father, and wanted to inquire about the steel egg, but with the result, she went to report to Wang Shengli and her father, and then got some praise. Unexpectedly, he was kicked by the huge Li Er, and his legs were kicked and limped, not to mention that he went to the toilet between classes, and he didn't know who gave him a pee from behind, so he was not a wolf. After three days, Yiqiē returned to peace, because there was no evidence and no evidence, and he could not be convicted, and the donkey family took a catastrophe. Later, when I went to physical education class to play football, the leather donkey didn't know how to do it, and kicked it in the stomach of the female classmate Wang Shengli, and almost didn't kick him to death. For this matter, Wang Shengli and her mother blocked the gate of the donkey's house and scolded for a morning before they were pulled down. It's strange to say, more than ten years later, Wang Shengli actually married a leather donkey, do you say, is this a legend and not a rivalry?
