The next day, Xue Lian really stepped on the long-distance train to Qiqihar alone.

During the winter vacation, in addition to helping his parents fetch buckets of water, hug firewood, light fires, and do some scattered housework, Zhicheng spent the rest of his time on studying. Never go out to play with other children of the same age. Stay home all day reviewing your homework.

The day after Zhicheng went home, his parents went to the market again as usual, not to catch up with the leisure market, nor to prepare New Year's goods, but to help people who rushed to the market to watch the bicycles, although it was also a shameful business, but no matter what it was, it was a money-making business, nothing else, just get two pocket money to eat salt and light the fire. How can there be a channel for money next to it! Therefore, as soon as the old couple entered the wax moon, they took the self-made bamboo brand to go around the market, and watched the foreign cars for others, and one gave a dime.

On the twenty-second day of the lunar month, that is, the day before the new year, the old couple earned more than 20 yuan in the Liuzihe market, and they got up in the middle of the night that day, and came to the Liuzihe market The sky was still dark, and the two surrounded a good venue. I have been showing people that the car is finished at two or three o'clock in the afternoon, and at noon I didn't even buy a five-cent bun, and when the car is gone, two gray-haired old men walked home on an empty stomach.

The twenty-sixth day of the lunar month is the last big gathering of Zaoshuwan before the year, and I heard that there are sheep to the head, so as soon as breakfast is over, men, women and children from ten miles and eight towns are pouring to Zaoshuwan from all directions. There are bicyclers, there are motorcycles, there are white-haired old people who walk together, and there are also little dolls who have taken a holiday, pulling hands in groups and shouting and running......

The old man Zhu Xiuchun got up early to cook, since her son returned home, she made every meal seriously, unlike before, net improvisation, sometimes in a hurry, even after getting up the head does not stroking it, pour a bowl of boiled water blister cold bun, and her husband ate in a daze and went to the set, you must know that there is no good place to go late, and it is not your family who looks at the bicycle, who goes early can occupy a good place, if you can't occupy a good place, others can see ten yuan, I'm afraid you can't even look down on a dollar, so in order to be able to get there a little early, use a rope to enclose a good venue, and the old couple who are more than half a hundred years old in this big winter, get up from bed at two or three o'clock, eat in a daze, and walk to the market more than ten miles away, and must walk, because the only broken bicycle in the family was ridden away by his son. Therefore, if you wake up late, you will not be able to occupy a good place.

This trip will not be able to go home until at least two or three o'clock in the afternoon, as long as someone has a bicycle that has not left, you have to show it to others! The most annoying thing is that once in the market of Walnut Recess, after a drunkard sent the bicycle, until the sun had set, he staggered to push the bicycle, and for this bicycle, the honest old couple waited in the cold wind for more than five hours, more than five hours! In the bare wheat field, there is not even a barrier to shelter from the wind and cold, and people are about to freeze into popsicles, not to mention, the drunkard is not only unsympathetic, but also scolds and scolds that he can't find a place, and he staggers nonsense, because he drank penniless, as a result, the poor Wang Dejian and his wife didn't even ask for a dime to see the fare, and the angry Zhu Xiuchun could only admit that he was unlucky when he saw the inhuman appearance he drank, and he might be pinched half to death if someone else changed. Wang Dejian asked for the license plate from the drunkard's pocket, and then the license plate on the bicycle was right, as soon as he saw that it was his, he threw the license plate into the woven bag containing fertilizer, and then carried it to his shoulder helplessly and his wife walked towards home in the cold wind, the old couple who had been hungry for a day faltered back home, it was already more than nine o'clock at night, but the home was still an ice pot and a cold stove, and they had to fetch water and hold firewood, and eat in the middle of the night......

Chickens and ducks are good to say, because they can find some food in the yard, so as soon as it gets dark, the chickens are also on the shelves, and the ducks are also in the circle, but where is the pig who has been hungry for a day, and he is "squeaking" and howling with his head held high, and the pig food prepared for it when Zhu Xiuchun left has already eaten a fine meal, and now when he hears the owner returning home, he is screaming with joy, and the people who are screaming are upset, and they don't even want to eat a meal. Zhu Xiuchun was anxious to eat two bites of rice, so he put down his chopsticks and was busy making pig food with warm water......

Wang Dejian, who was under the kerosene lamp, looked at his wife's hands that were frozen blue, purple and bloody, and couldn't help but put down the chopsticks in his hands bitterly. said to his wife: "Xiuchun, sit down and eat!" The pig asked me to feed ......" In fact, his hands were also frozen, and it was miserable.

Zhu Xiuchun stared at her husband stupidly, she hadn't heard her husband call her like this for a long time. Wang Dejian held his wife's unrecognizable thick hands, couldn't help shedding cloudy tears, and said in a choked voice: "Xiuchun, let you suffer with me in this life, alas, blame me for not being able to do it." ”

Looking at her husband who blamed herself and felt guilty in front of her, Zhu Xiuchun withdrew her hands with tears in her eyes and said: "Look at you, we have lived as an old husband and wife for most of our lives, what are you talking about, who made us all hard-working!" It doesn't matter if you suffer a little bit or suffer a little sin, as long as our whole family is safe. Well, you're tired from the day, so sit down and eat! She said as she picked up the prepared pig food and walked out of the room to calm the squeaky voice.

This couple, who depend on each other for their lives and share hardships, have formed an indestructible and strong relationship in the years of each other, although there is no sweet romance, but they have established an understanding and inclusive love.

Ay...... Is it easy to be a farmer? It is no wonder that there is a popular proverb in the countryside that "being a pig, a dog, and a donkey is better than being a farmer......

The above right is an interlude, the following book returns to the main story, and says that the twenty-sixth day of the lunar month is a big set, in the past, the old couple were in the south intersection to see the bicycle, but because there are sheep today, Zhu Xiuchun and Wang Dejian discussed not to go to the south intersection, but to circle a place near the sheep fighting venue to see the car. The idea was certain, so the old man of Dejian came to the north of the market with a rope and circled a place early. Not to mention, there are really a lot of sheep to see today, and it is not an exaggeration to describe it as a sea of people.

Zhu Xiuchun and his wife saw more than 200 bicycles in the morning, and Zhicheng also came over to help his parents. Even Yuxiu came over to help them for a while.

Since there is no entertainment in the countryside, not like in the city, what dance halls, bars, nightclubs, foot massage cities, etc., there are countless entertainment venues, when you feel bored, you can get into such places, sing, dance, and then call two beautiful girls, let them use the flexible * to massage, relax and relax. Then I found two girls with high bed skills to go to the private room to have some entertainment, but the old farmers in the countryside did not have this condition, even if they took out their annual income to stimulate it, it was difficult to find this kind of place. What's more, when it comes to the busy farming season, they are tired like a turtle grandson and eight calves, and even their own wives don't have the energy to toss, how can they still have the heart to play wild food, how can they compare with the powerful and rich people in other cities, playing fucking several girls in one night, either double flying or group P.

For the peasants, there are only a few days of leisure in winter, and after a year of busy work, they also want to find some entertainment, what entertainment? Either organize a sheep to fight against the head, or attract a monkey to play circus, or invite a grass stage team to come to the village to sing for two days. But there are not many opportunities like this, most of the time they are looking for their own fun, for example, when you are idle and have no dick, more than a dozen people get together with their sleeves, squat at the root of the south wall, and coax the east and west families while basking in the warmth, and then they are just teasing and scolding each other like the most brothers in the money, so as to have fun.

At night, because the night was not so early, and his wife was not allowed to climb on his body, he ran out to a bachelor's house and got tired of talking nonsense, but in fact, it was fucking nonsense. When I got home, I unbuttoned my pants on the road, took out my, and swayed forward with my legs crossed while peeing, and formed a long series of "urine waves" with decreasing amplitude as my hands swung behind me. When I got home, I couldn't wait to get into my wife's warm hot quilt, cover my head with a quilt, and then taste the most primitive happiness between men and women.

What's more interesting is to press a big stack, more than a dozen young people get together to be idle and have nothing to do, they will squeeze and push each other together to play, like a new daughter-in-law, while pushing and shoving in the middle, while yelling excitedly, you sift me, I sift you, three sieves and two do not sieve, even push and trip, after a while, the kung fu will pile down two or three, then the rest of the people will yell up, pounce and press up, I press you, you press him, the result is a big stack, this is the so-called pressure stack, If you don't get the bottom of the list, you'll be crushed to death, but they're still happy.
