Chapter 5 Childhood is difficult, engaged in breeding to supplement the family!
After more than two months in the provincial capital, she finally came back safely from the provincial capital, it was not very cold, but my mother came back with a mask and a headscarf!
The afternoon my mother came home, she called our family for a family meeting in the living room of the house.
With tears in her eyes, the mother said, "Children! Your father is indeed dead! They made up a lot of accusations against your father! However, I secretly investigated some insiders, and they did it to kill your father! They secretly killed your father! Therefore, I did not find your father's body! Remember a name! This person is the mastermind of harming your father, his name is Lai Caide! This man used to work with your father! ”
Then, everyone cried together, and to be honest, we also knew that we cried, and at that time, we were too young to have the ability to settle accounts with those enemies!
......
That night, our family brought black yarn and small white flowers to pay tribute to my father and burn paper money in the wasteland outside the courtyard.
Everyone was crying silently, hugging Wei's mother and mother and crying bitterly, and the cry echoed in the valley!
……
On the first morning after my mother came home, it was just dawn, and Wei's mother was making me breakfast in the kitchen, when there was a quick knock on the door in the yard, and "Open the door!" Open the door! The roar.
We were all woken up by shouting, and we all ran out into the yard to see what was going on!
The two elder brothers accompanied their mother and opened the courtyard door.
As soon as the door opened, seven or eight armed men with guns on their backs rushed in!
These people are familiar to me, they are from the town, and several of them came to our house before my father was alive and begged him to help them!
Among them, one smiled and said, "Magnolia! Your husband Qin Tianhao is a bad person! We just received Qin Tianhao's death! Therefore, he was ordered to search Qin Tianhao's residence and collect evidence of his crime! ”
Seven or eight of them didn't wait for my mother to plead her case, so they rushed into our living room, study and bedroom, and searched at random!
In the end, they collected some of my father's books, notebooks, *** pieces, and some of my father's personal belongings and packed them into several large boxes! They carried the boxes to the yard.
The one at the head said, "Listen! These things are all evidence of Qin Tianhao's crime! We're going to take it away! And, Magnolia! You're ready to get surveyed! Also, several of your children are no longer in school! Let them stay honest at home! Remember, don't let them do bad things! Otherwise, they will be arrested too! Do you understand? ”
As soon as this person's voice fell, Brother Wen Chang immediately rushed up and grabbed that person's hand and bit it!
The blood of that man's hand being bitten by Brother Wen Chang flowed!
At this time, an armed man slammed Brother Wenchang's head with **! Brother Wen Chang was knocked out on the spot!
The elder brother and sister immediately rushed over and helped Brother Wenchang up from the ground!
Several armed men immediately pointed their guns at the brothers and sisters!
The head grasped the wound and said, "All right! Everyone is a fellow! Just do what you are told! Don't kill anyone! Children are not sensible, don't worry about them! You move your stuff! ”
They removed their father's belongings, leaving a pool of blood on the ground!
Everyone helped Brother Wen Chang back home.
After returning home, Brother Wen Chang slowly woke up, and his mother and Mother Wei treated and bandaged Brother Wenchang's wounds.
His mother gave Wen Changge painkillers and anti-inflammatory drugs.
The brothers and sisters helped Brother Wenchang back to the bedroom to rest.
After dealing with the matter, the mother took her old briefcase to the agency for investigation.
I took Jingdi and Lilan by the hand and went to my father's study, which was already in a mess, and my father's relics were thrown all over the ground!
However, the thermos that my father kept on the bookshelf was still there!
We went to the mother's bedroom, our bedroom, and it was a mess there!
Wei's mother was there packing up her things in tears.
Wei Ma said with tears in her eyes: "Ah Cai! Today, you see it! If you hit it hard, you have to suffer! Don't trouble your mom anymore! In the future, be polite to everyone, don't suffer the immediate loss! ”
......
In the following days, the older siblings could not go to school, so they had to read and study at home.
The mother went out early and returned late every day to be investigated.
I take my younger siblings to play in the yard every day.
One day, Wei's mother said to me, "Ah Cai! You're a smart kid! I'll teach you how to do business! Now, I'll give you four cents! You go to the bazaar and buy twenty chicken seedlings, and twenty duck seedlings come back! In the future, I will teach you to raise chickens and ducks! That way, at the end of the year, we can sell these chickens and ducks! That is, you can get forty-eight dollars! This is equivalent to two months' living expenses for our family of eleven people! Your mom! Only 36 yuan a month! If your mother is expelled by them, our family will have no source of livelihood! Do you understand? ”
I said, "Understood! Wei Ma! I love business, teach me! ”
Wei's mother smiled and said, "Okay! I'll teach you! Ahh I'll look at the looks, and in the future, you'll definitely be a big boss! ”
Seriously, I have a very good memory, and I won't forget anything that people have told me! Moreover, I am very good at arithmetic, and I can mentally do addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division! Of course, because my family has become poor, I have a very strong passion for doing business and making money, and I want to earn a lot to help my mother share her worries!
Wei's mother took out four cents from her clothes pocket and handed it to me, and then I went to the yard to prepare two cages for chicken and duck seedlings, Jing Di and I put the cages in the small cart, and the two of us pushed the cart to the market to buy chicken and duck seedlings.
On the way, Jing Di smiled and said to me, "Brother! I love chicks and ducklings! But, raise to death! What to do? ”
I said, "No!" I went to the market with Wei's mother to sell chicken and duck seedlings! I know how she chooses! If we choose the best, we will be able to raise them! ”
Jing Di smiled and said, "Brother! In the future, I will raise chickens and ducks with you! Teach me, I'll learn hard! ”
I said, "Okay! Actually, I don't know much either! In the future, let's learn from Wei Ma together! ”
When we arrived at the market, we bought chicken and duck seedlings at the stall where Wei Ma used to buy them, and selected twenty chicken seedlings and twenty duck seedlings, each of which was a penny, and we spent four cents!
After buying the chicken and duck seedlings, Jing Di and I pushed the small cart with the chicken and duck seedlings home.
When I arrived at home, Wei's mother was very satisfied and happy to see these chicken and duck seedlings!
She began to teach me and Jingdi how to feed chickens and ducks.
After that, Jing Di and I followed Wei's mother's method to raise chickens and ducks every day!
.....
After a while, my mother told us that they were no longer investigating her, that she would continue to work in her old unit, and that I knew that our family would not be hungry for the time being.
Because my mother used the money given to our family by Uncle Li Shaochang to buy things and give gifts to the principal of my brother and sister, my brothers and sisters can go to school again!
And just like that, life in our family is back to normal!
And Brother Wen Chang's pain has all been healed, but there is a scar on the top of his head!
......
Ever since my dad left, I've started to care about the family.
Our house is a three-story brick and wood tile house.
On the first floor, there is a kitchen, dining room, living room, toilet, dad's study, and study room for older brothers and sisters.
The second floor is everyone's bedroom, the parents used to live in one, and now the mother lives alone; Wei's mother lives in one by herself; Brother Jingtian and Brother Wenchang live in one room; Sister Lifen, Sister Wenjuan, and Little Sister Lilan live in one room; I live with Jing Di. There is also one guest room.
The third floor is my mother's office, and we can't enter it without her permission; There are also several utility rooms and empty houses in which we often play on rainy days.
The furniture in the house is made of wood, which looks old, but sturdy. My mother told me that they are mahogany furniture, so let's take special care of them and not scribble on them!
I feel that our family is very big, because it takes a day for Wei's mother and my mother to lead us to tidy up the housekeeping and hygiene, and everyone will be sweating profusely!
We also have front and back yards in our house. The yard is surrounded by a wall.
The front yard has a double wooden gate with iron trim and ribs, which is the main way we enter and exit the house.
Parking is available in the front yard for tools and sundries that are often used outside the house.
In the past, there was a special jeep for my father, who was taken away by a gang a year before his death.
There is a well in the backyard of the house, and the water for drinking, cooking, washing clothes and watering vegetables is fed in the well. When the water is not fetched, the wellhead is covered by a wooden board cover, and there is a lock on it, and the key is kept by Wei's mother.
Wei's mother told me that this well is very deep, and she is worried that our children will fall into it! Let me always check if the manhole cover is closed and locked! Because, I have to fetch water from the well all the time, and feed the chickens and ducks.
Our backyard was spacious! There are some fruit trees, roses and roses, etc., and there are chicken sheds, duck sheds, and a large stable.
Wei's mother said that when there was no car, her parents rode far away, and after the family had a car, the two horses here were given to others.
There is a gate in the backyard, and outside the door is our family's vegetable patch, where Wei's mother, mother and brothers and sisters grow a lot of vegetables and fruits. My family basically doesn't have to go to the market to buy vegetables. Wei's mother said that this vegetable garden has saved the family a lot of money!
Wei's mother said that this house was built by my father when he bought this land in the old days, and this house was already here when she and our family were here.
Our family's life began to live again in this way!
