Chapter 14: 'Raising Teachers to Ask for Sin'
In the following days, Monan could only wait patiently, and she did not have to meet with people by mail, so that her small body could be hidden. She is also curious about who is the lucky recipient of this email, even if it is 'sinking into the sea and there is no news', it doesn't matter if you send it again, there will always be a time when a blind cat bumps into a dead mouse.
When Fang Monan turned around and waved goodbye to the people at the post office when he was leaving, he saw a set of 80-year-old "Gengshen Monkey" monkey ticket souvenir sheets posted there...... Life is full of surprises, and it seems that I am thinking of a way to buy it back home.
Fang Menan didn't go home, her grandmother was busy at home, she scratched her head and went to find her aunt. Anyway, she also ran to the county party committee compound, the gate was old and mottled, and the plaques of the county party committee government were hung on both sides of the door. The door of the guard's room was closed, unguarded, and the light of the small and inconspicuous people was taken advantage of, and they sneaked in without difficulty. Auntie came to resign today, she shouldn't have left yet, I hope so, try your luck. Looking east and west, she didn't meet anyone on the road, and she was in trouble when she saw a pile of tables, chairs, and large boxes in front of a house in front of her. She walked forward, tried her luck, and asked someone.
I was lucky to find someone who was actually my aunt, although she was covering her face, judging from her clothes. My aunt was standing on a small ladder, holding tools, and tearing down the ceiling on the house.
"Auntie" Fang Monan exclaimed with swollen eyes, didn't she come to resign today?
"Ah, little Nannan, you're here." When she heard Tong Yin, she climbed down the ladder and walked in front of Fang Monan, she didn't dare to get too close, and looked around to see no one else following, "Your grandma is really relieved now, dare to call you over." She said as she took off her face towel. This work was arranged a few days ago, anyway, it's the last time, and you have to start and finish in life. It's all done, and I told them too, don't look at it. She looked at Fang Monan and explained as she looked at the dust in the door.
"Now this, don't you paint red at home, don't skip words. Auntie looked at her and said, I have always been very active in writing, and I have time to come here today, and she hasn't had time to think that she is looking for it. was frightened by Fang Monan's words.
"I'm looking for you for something, are you free now, do you have ten dollars on you, don't skip words.
The aunt searched all over her body pocket and counted seven or eight yuan, "Why are you asking for money, are you doing something bad?" ”
"Let's tidy up your body first, and we'll talk as we go." Fang Monan looked at the soil on her body, frowning, unpleasant.
"It can't really be an accident" The aunt stood far away from her, beat the dust on her body, and pulled her out hurriedly.
Fang Monan followed her to the post office, and then told her to buy stamps, so that the aunt's worried heart just now was put down, as soon as she heard about buying stamps, the aunt suddenly said that she was full of food, and I didn't write a letter to buy stamps, and it was six yuan four, and I had half a month's salary. "Shaking his head, he didn't go into the post office.
Fang Monan saw that the normal way was not working, so he ruthlessly picked up the child's privilege and played tricks, "If you don't buy it, I'll cry to you." She said just do it, and she cried.
My aunt was scared, this was really ugly, and she couldn't resist it in the end, so she succumbed. Walking out of the post office, Fang Monan was elated and bought a large souvenir sheet here. And the aunt is wilted like a frosted eggplant, she thinks that since this niece is in the countryside, she wants to buy her candy, and she doesn't want it, thinking that her family is in difficulty, and she has become well-behaved and sensible. I didn't expect it to be so ruthless, and half a month's salary was gone all of a sudden.
"Auntie, don't be sad, I'll give you 500,000 in thirty years." Fang Monan tiptoed and patted her shoulder, so he could only pat her arm and comfort.
My aunt was sad and sad, and when she heard her words, she only had two words to deceive the ghost. "Obviously not.
"Then we will wait and see, and whoever believes in me will have eternal life." Fang Monan raised his hand and drew a cross on his chest, his expression was solemn, and his voice was deliberately low, who caused the comedic effect.
"Little brat, that's not serious." The aunt was amused by her serious and exaggerated expression, and her sadness disappeared.
In the next few days, Fang Monan did not accompany his grandmother to sell steamed buns, and the students and parents hurriedly asked Aunt Mo's granddaughter if she was sick if she didn't come.
It turned out that grandma's steamed bun stall was as famous as Fang Monan's nursery rhymes, so later Fang Monan also accompanied grandma to sell steamed buns from time to time, and every day even some students came to tease Fang Monan to see if meaningful nursery rhymes could pop out of her mouth, and recorded them, and the result was that she recalled nursery rhymes with her brains. At this time, it doesn't care about the age, as long as it is good and meaningful, like jingle bells and health songs, with her deliberate neck twisting, little buttocks twisting, shaking hands and feet. It's funny, and everyone laughs, "Your granddaughter is so cute." ”
Some people are the aunts of the Mo family, and they rush to your lovely granddaughter, and I also have to buy two steamed buns. "Hearty and straight out of the money.
The children's songs of this era basically stay in the sixties and seventies. One, two, three, four, five, go up the mountain to fight tigers, tigers don't eat people, they eat Truman. (Truman is a former president of the United States)
God, don't rain, bless the baby to eat white rice.
God, don't get up to the wind, kill a big.
The sun came out and filled the sky red, shining on the poor and turning their bodies,
The sun is like **, leading the people to sit on the country.
In the end, there was really no children's rhyme to memorize, Fang Monan simply memorized an ancient poem a week, five-word quatrains, few words and easy to remember, most of them were Wang Wei's descriptions of scenery, or inspirational ancient poems. The lights of the third watch and the fifth watch of the chicken are when the boy is studying. The black hair does not know how to study early, and the white head regrets studying late. In this way, there is no need to worry about saying 'big rebellion', and Mr. Lin has a complete collection of ancient poems, so it is easy to explain the source.
With Fang Monan's hard performance, grandma is busy and happy every day, looking at her as if she is much younger, looking at the small cardboard box that collects money is full every day, Fang Monan finally feels a little comforted in his heart. As Fang Monan thought, from the very beginning of the fire, to the calm. Adjusting the amount of steamed bread every day, the average number of steamed buns sold every day is also more than 100. Excluding the cost, seventy or eighty yuan a month is really a high salary. Because the top and bottom are good, no one from the second-rate and gangsters comes to find trouble.
In the middle, Mo Nan asked Grandma to make a wide apron like a dress out of light pink Zhenliang, put it on, and looked neat and clean. She asked Mr. Lin to find some paint that would not fall off when it encountered water, and wore a big apron, she drew a Q version of the festive full-body portrait of a New Year's painting doll on her chest, wearing a warm yellow dress, covered with a white chef's clothes, wearing a white chef's hat, a red silk scarf tied around her neck, holding a plate of steaming steamed buns with one hand, touching her chin with one hand, licking her lips with her tongue, looking extremely satisfied, and a narrator next to her, 'It tastes great.' The word 'Mo' was written in red paint on the bottom of the portrait. Grandpa's surname is Mo, and he sells steamed buns, which happens to be homophonic to steamed buns.
Fang Monan's new clothes style, I thought I was going to persuade my grandmother for a while, but I didn't expect that as long as her Nannan did it, regardless of thirty-seven twenty-one, she would wear it. My aunt said that it was beautiful and festive.
Just because of this novel shape, people buy steamed buns every day, not to mention whether they buy them or not, there are many people who look at this painting, coupled with Fang Monan's hard performance, at least it has gathered popularity, and many people are happy when they look at it. According to the living habits here, Grandma also changed the stall, because most of the people here say that dinner is porridge with steamed buns, and the first time she went out of the stall was an accident
After class every day, my aunt helped my grandmother sell steamed buns and pushed the cart home together, ignoring the fingers in the school.
Now Fang Monan has one more thing to do every night before going to bed, massaging the acupoints on his grandmother's hands, and eliminating the fatigue and injury caused by rubbing steamed buns with his hands every day. In this way, you can continue to dry the next day without feeling the soreness of your hands.
*********************
One day, more than a month later, there was still an hour before people were normal, and Fang Monan was sitting in the corridor, holding a charcoal pen and drawing on paper the big jujube tree in the yard, which was already full of red fruits and was ready to eat. Pomegranates are also red and green, and they should be able to be eaten by the time of the Mid-Autumn Festival.
There was a middle-aged man standing in the courtyard, looking at the courtyard as if remembering, stunned. He remembered what had just happened at home.
"I don't care, you can go home today and talk to your mother about it. Don't set up a stall in front of the high school and sell buns. I can't afford to lose that man. Mo Yonghui, didn't you hear what those old ladies said in logistics, and they kept saying that I was not filial, which caused your mother to be like this, and she was embarrassed. "He was a short man, with his hands on his hips, like a teapot, full of energy, like a machine gun.
"You've gone a little too far," he muttered as he looked up at her.
Although the voice was small, she still heard it, she was like a cat with fried hair, and her voice suddenly rose, "Okay, you have no heart, I keep the money, and it's not all subsidized to you and the children, I am willing to spend more, ah ......." sat on the spot, patted the ground with both hands, cried and wiped tears, and shouted Oops...... I have to be a god, I can't live this day, we don't calculate to live at that time. Thinking about it, he felt that this was too ugly, rubbed the ground and stood up again, twisting his ears, "You are so good in the factory, the size is a head, you are not afraid of others poking your backbone in the back, if the reputation of unfilial piety spreads, do you still want to be promoted, you don't hear other people's fingers." Ah....... you have to go today and you have to go, you have to go, you don't go. I ......."
"Mom, what are you doing?" A crisp boy's voice asked, looking at his parents.
"Ah, no...... I'm tidying up your dad's clothes," she patted the dust on his body that wasn't there at all, and she still had to leave him the dignity of being a father in front of him. "Your dad is going to your grandma's house, are you going to go?" Gently stepped forward, took a towel, and wiped the sweat from his face.
"I'm not going." He snatched the towel and went down to the ground, sulking on the lower bench.
"Huh, this is?" When she heard that she didn't go to see her grandmother, a hint of pride flashed on her face, which was the result of her education. "Didn't you spend some time at school after school? It's only a few o'clock and you're done. ”
It's okay that she didn't ask, but when she asked, he sobbed and said that they all look down on me, don't play with me, and call me my grandson who sells steamed buns,"
"Mo Yonghui, listen to it, take a look, whether you are going or not." As if she had the backbone of the backbone, her combat power rose sharply, and she said in a loud voice. "It doesn't matter if we suffer some grievances in the factory, they don't have the real situation, we just have a clear conscience. You see, even children are involved. This ....... "wiping the tears in his eyes that he didn't have, looking like a good wife and mother."
He looked sad, and He'er looked like he didn't go, she would fight with him. He shook his head and walked out helplessly. "Can't I go?"
After winning the victory, she also understands the old lady's temperament thoroughly, as long as the child's father says that it will definitely be successful. If you think about it, you don't have to listen to the dry tongues of those old ladies, she is in a very good mood. Come on, they don't play with us, so don't we rarely play with them? Mom will go make you scrambled eggs with green onions now, while you two are still there. ”
"Okay yes" he jumped up happily, "Mom, you're so nice"
He stood in the courtyard, thinking from his memories of the gossip he had heard these days, and then thinking about how he had cried. He made up his mind.
"Nannan, don't you skip words at home? A simple middle man spoke up and rubbed her head, "I don't play with your brother from the countryside, but I used to follow behind my ass, and I couldn't get rid of it." ”
Fang Monan raised his head on one side, rescued the ravaged head, and took a closer look, an honest man in his thirties was not the eldest uncle. Much younger than I remembered, of medium height, wearing a short gray shirt, black trousers, and a pair of black cloth shoes.
"Grandma, it's in the house," Fang Monan said coldly.
The eldest uncle didn't see her as close as usual, but he only felt that the child was small, and he didn't see each other for a while, so he forgot and didn't care. He was in the house, got up and stepped over the threshold and entered the house.
Grandma was in the house and sounded like a voice, and she rushed out of the house happily. "Why are you here, don't you skip words. As he spoke, he didn't forget to pick up a small bench from the wall, watched him sit down, and went to pour him a glass of water.
"She." The eldest uncle shook his head and said sadly.
Then there was a long silence, Fang Menan's heart sank to the bottom when he looked at him, and sure enough, it was true.
He looked at his grandmother happily, he hadn't seen him for a long time, as if he hadn't seen him since his father died. Hengxin, grunting, or opening your mouth, I heard that you set up a stall at the entrance of high school. ”
Grandma laughed when she heard this, it turned out to be this, and seeing if he looked good, she thought something bad had happened. "You too, I've been sitting for half a month, I'll tell you, you can earn ......." Before the money could be said, it was interrupted abruptly.
"Withdraw......" he said with his head down, muffled.
"What do you say? I didn't hear it. Grandma looked at him in surprise, the water in the cup trembled, and the splashed hands did not feel hot.
"Mom, you just withdraw, do you want the neighbors to say that they are not filial, don't you skip words. He said dejectedly.
'You are filial, huh...... Everyone, you are filial. They had been from the countryside for nearly two months, and they hadn't seen him come to see grandma. This is to ask the teacher for sin. Fang Monan said in her heart, looking at her grandmother worriedly, she had also heard gossip, but they were all irrelevant people, and this was from relatives, and it was very lethal, if not grandma, can she stand up. She looked at her worriedly.
"Unfilial piety, what do you care about them, I can eat and sleep, while I am still young and have the strength to work for a few years, doesn't this also reduce your burden? Your father left early, I didn't have a job, and although I had a pension of a few dollars, I couldn't even buy a bag of flour. After two years, your little sister won't talk about others. Grandma explained.
He listened to this meaning and wanted to do it, "This is the act of prying the corner of socialism" and the big hat must be buttoned down. A few years ago, the old man was almost criticized and fought because of his ancestors, but fortunately, his ancestors defeated his family and escaped a catastrophe.
'Haha...... Your old thinking is really ancient' Fang Monan said with a smile, seeing that you still have moves, use them.
"Huh...... That's not to worry, I've asked your little sister to ask. Didn't I say it in the newspapers and on the radio, the policy allows it, what are you afraid of?" said Grandma with a smile. "Besides, I used to do it secretly, but now I can do it in the open. I don't steal or rob, why can't I? ”
"Mother, we're old, and we don't care when others say we don't care. But you also have to think about your grandchildren, the children are not sensible, so they follow the foolish coaxing, and they have everything they say. You should think about it, I'll go first. He didn't finish his sentence, and left it for the old man to imagine.
It's really a straight death, grandma can endure it elsewhere, but when it comes to grandchildren, it's the root of life. Although her grandchildren are not close to her, even during the New Year's Festival, they just come to order a meal, and they don't even eat a bite of rice. But Fang Monan's favorite thing in her heart is her grandson. In her previous life, her grandmother thought about her grandchildren until she died. Now grandma's decision is that she can't be sure, she doesn't, who will grandma choose in front of her career and grandchildren.
Grandma looked at the direction of departure in a daze, and sat there, maintaining the posture of carrying water, until the aunt.
