Ruixue flutters like goose feathers, fluttering catkins full of Qiongyao. But I saw that the cold moon and the stars were flying and the birds were flying, and the crows waiting to be fed shook their wings. The pedestrians lost the Yangguan Road, and the pulsatilla stepped on the snow to find the plum and crossed the small bridge. The scenery of mountains and rivers, raise your eyes, float away, swing and shake. The clouds cross the rugged road of the Qinling Mountains, whitewashing the old grass thatch in Nanyang. There seems to be a jade dragon in the sky, turning back sharply, the wine flag in Xinghua Village is floating, and it is swaying up and down with the wind.

It snowed heavily, and in one night, it was very difficult to seal the entire Cangyan Mountain.

It is said that Ruixue is a good year, so to speak. Heavy snow is indeed good for the land the next year, but many poor families do not wait for the second year when such heavy snow occurs.

Like a poor family, the house is also low, and the door is small, and it is possible to be sealed by heavy snow for a few days. If it falls into disrepair again, the house can collapse directly due to heavy snowfall.

Why is it said that the New Year is difficult, in the eyes of the poor, there is really no difference between the New Year and the pass. One is cold, the other is poor. If it were to catch up with the heavy snowfall in a disaster year, it was possible that the whole family would freeze and starve and die at home.

However, for the people near Niujinzhai, this year's heavy snow did not make them feel so desperate.

……

Liu Si hid in the house, his eyes staring at the scene outside the window. The uneven wood on the window, coupled with the cracks of the old wood, is why there is such a big crack left on the window. Normally, it would have been too late to plug this crack in the winter, but today he made it a little bigger, because it was the only window he could see outside at the moment.

"I said in charge, why are you stupid? Wouldn't it be nice to just push the door and go out? ”

Liu Si's wife stood behind him, patted him on the shoulder, and said with a little complaint, thinking that his man was really a wretch, and he didn't even dare to go out of the door.

"Oh, be quiet! Who knows what the soldiers outside are going to do for a while? Can these bosses still help us work for nothing? What if we ask for money in a moment? We have to pay back all the money we earned in the first two days. ”

Liu Si said with a bitter face that he could be said to be a standard honest person. A face is honest and thick, the neck is always so shrunk, and there is an uneasy smile on the face all year round, for fear of offending anyone.

Looking at the soldiers in khaki yellow uniforms cleaning up the snow at the door of their homes, Liu Si's heart was weak for a while, and the soldiers were snorting and panting for white air, in his opinion, it was like water vapor just out of the pot was smacking his ass, the hot ass with his waist, his waist with his stomach, his stomach with his shoulders, and his whole body was shaking with him.

He didn't believe that these soldiers would work for him for nothing! When these soldiers first came here, Liu Si had seen them on the way to Bailaogou. One of the chief-looking men asked him for directions in a friendly manner. Although he walked by these soldiers that day, it did not mean that he regarded them as family.

Liu Si is Chinese New Year's Eve more than forty people today, and he clearly remembers that when the emperor was gone, the new Beiyang soldiers who entered the city also looked at the rules and regulations, and at that time, there were notices posted under the city gate, asking the "scholars" to give them the "republic" sentence by sentence. To this day, Liu Si didn't understand what the republic meant, but he remembered that someone said that "republic" means that you are not allowed to bully people casually.

At that time, Liu Sike was happy, and he felt as if the mountain above his head was gone all of a sudden, and he slept more steadily. However, when I opened my eyes the next morning, the surroundings were still the same, beating people were still beating, those who searched their bodies were still searched, and those who were blackmailing money were still blackmailing money!

Liu Si, who has experienced this, has only one idea, that is, to live honestly and support his family, and whoever pokes him will also stab. Isn't that how life is, stumbling and stumbling. As soon as the last two eyes are closed, this life is over. Now he is "republican" and "equal...... He didn't believe it.

The chief and Liu Si were very polite that day, which surprised Liu Si's heart, and his brain was hot for a while. But then he cooled down, what use could this chief be polite again? When have you ever seen Yuan Shikai come out and bully the common people? When have you ever seen Emperor Guangxu come out and bully the common people?

Just as Liu Si was in the middle of his fugue, his daughter-in-law patted him on the shoulder again.

"I said boss, what are you afraid of? These soldiers outside are all good, during this time to buy our brooms, firewood or something, people still give money, usually meet, the commanders of the Eighth Route Army are also very kind, what are you afraid of. ”

Liu Si's daughter-in-law is much happier than his man, and she dares to speak and do things, she can be said to be a standard village sister, and it can be said that Liu Si has spent half of her life on her.

"Go to the side, what do the old ladies know?! The chief is kind, you can guarantee that they are all good people?! ”

Liu Si slammed his arm, his eyes were still staring at the outside, what he was most afraid of now was that the soldiers outside pushed the door into the house.

"Hey! Liu Laosi! You dare to call me?! ”

was dumped by Liu Si like this, and Liu Si's daughter-in-law became popular at that time. beat her through the door, and the man didn't say anything serious to her, today this is a long ability!

"Oops! Oh my fathers! Don't be angry! ”

As soon as Liu Si heard that his daughter-in-law's voice was wrong, he turned around and grabbed his daughter-in-law's arm to forgive him. Now his daughter-in-law can be said to be his lifeline, and not long ago there was movement in his daughter-in-law's stomach. Their Liu family is now pointing to the piece of meat in her stomach!

"I'm not aiming at you, you can be quiet! If the soldiers from outside come in and have bad intentions towards you, then my life will be in vain! ”

Liu Si lowered his voice and said, in his heart. The daughter-in-law with a round face, big eyes and big ass in front of her is a baby, and she has to hold it in her hands, so she can't let outsiders see it.

Liu's fourth daughter-in-law was amused by the man's appearance, and poked her husband's head with her finger.

"Look at your little bit of interest! People come to work for our family in the morning, even if they ask for money. You just huddled in the house like a bastard, and you didn't even have the courage to go out and say a few nice words? Don't even open the door and ignore people, this is called rudeness. In case the bosses think that you don't take others seriously, they will hold a grudge against you. Then our family can't live their lives, who knows how long they will have to stay in Niujinzhai? ”

Although Liu Si's daughter-in-law doesn't know a single big character, she also has some insight and understands the world very well. She knew that if her husband kept hiding in the house like this, it would definitely not be the way to get along with people. Hiding from others like this, in case people think too much. The gun in his hand is not necessarily aimed at anything.

Hearing his daughter-in-law say this, Liu Si was like a basin of cold water poured on him, and he was full of excitement at that time.

"Eh! Daughter-in-law! You saved me! ”

Liu Si jumped three times like a fire, and immediately turned around on the spot, and began to think about how to remedy it.

"Boss, you quickly take out that little money and go out to thank others."

Hearing his daughter-in-law say this, Liu Si subconsciously went to get the money. But then the body froze. Because that money is reserved for the daughter-in-law's body!

"When is it, you still want this! Let's get past the current level first! ”

The daughter-in-law stomped her feet angrily, Liu Si immediately held the money in her hand, pushed the door and walked out with a hot brain.

Liu Si, who walked out of the house, suddenly opened up in front of him, and the snow in the small courtyard was swept away and cleaned up on both sides. And several snow-clearing warriors had already packed their things at this time and were about to leave.

Seeing a few soldiers raising their feet to leave, Liu Si screamed in his heart at that time.

"Ladies and gentlemen, stay here."

As soon as the words came out, Liu Si unconsciously softened by three points, and trotted to catch up. With a smile on his face, he was teased for a while.

"Ladies and gentlemen, thank you for your great kindness, and thank you for your kindness."

Liu Si was so frightened for a while, and these soldiers from the second battalion immediately stretched out their hands to support him.

"Oops! Fourth Brother Liu, what do you think this is for, don't you dare to call us that! There is discipline in the regiment, fourth brother, you can call us comrades. ”

Hearing what the soldiers said, Liu Si had big pores all over his body.

"Old ...... Uh, same ...... Will. Do you know me? ”

As soon as Liu Si said this, the platoon commander of the second battalion smiled at the time, held Liu Si's hand and said.

"Don't tell you, call me old. Fourth brother, you don't know me? You've sold firewood several times, but we've done it. The comrades in the logistics department all praised you, saying that you were sincere and that there was no shortage of firewood to be delivered. ”

When this platoon commander said this, Liu Si felt that the soldier in front of him was indeed familiar. He usually takes the money and leaves when he delivers firewood, and never says a word, where do he dare to deliberately remember people?

"That'...... Well, thank you. ”

Liu Si couldn't speak, and then made up his mind, and broke his hand open, revealing the money inside.

"Guys for this money...... Comrade, just take it, even if it's a little bit of my heart......"

However, before Liu Si's words were finished, he was forcibly grabbed back by the other party.

"Alas! That's not going to work, we're disciplined. It's not easy for you to make money, you better make up for your sister-in-law's body, your sister-in-law still has a body. ”

As soon as the platoon commander said this, Liu Si's eyes widened.

"This ...... Do you know this? ”

He didn't know that when the 424th Regiment was stationed here, he already knew about the situation in the surrounding villages.

After patting Liu Si's arm and comforting him a few more words, the platoon commander turned around and walked away with his soldiers. Liu Si, who was left with an unbelievable face, stood at the door of his house in a daze, the money in his hand did not move, and a lot of it was placed in the palm of his hand.

"Is there really such a soldier in the world? Is there really such a soldier? ……”

After walking away with a few soldiers, the platoon commander turned to his soldiers and said.

"You have all seen it, what the head of the regiment said is right, as long as we treat each other with sincerity, even ice lumps can be melted by us. The more we are in front of such people, the less we can afford to be careless. In front of my fellow countrymen, even a small platoon leader like me can be regarded as God. ”
