When Wu He handed over her husband's double-barreled shotgun to him one day, she said with tears in her eyes: "Brother Zhenkun, your brother is gone, and it is useless for him to leave this gun at home." I see that you like it, for the sake of the two of you having a good time, I will give it to you as a thought, and some bullets! In addition, you can take the puppy you want, you can wean, it will already eat. ”

He received the gun in his hand at that time, it was really like a treasure, and he was very grateful and grateful, he could be said to have coveted this shotgun for a long time, and he was very envious of the person who owned this gun, and he did not dare to have extravagant hopes. Now the people are gone, and the guns have changed hands. This double-barreled shotgun is unique in the whole village, it shoots bullets and has a long range, so it is naturally a hundred times better than those ordinary shotguns made in the old land. It is said to be made in Germany and has unrecognizable letters on the hilt. In addition, he was secretly worried about the big white horse that Miao Yunchang was riding, and he didn't have the money to open his mouth to buy it. Not long after, Miao Hanxiang was afraid of seeing things and thinking about people, so he sold the horse, which made him regret it for a long time. The fact that a woman can give away her husband's relics shows that she trusts and has a good impression of him. Also, he also likes the falcon domesticated by Miao Yunchang, but what Wu He learned from his mouth is that after there is no trustworthy and reliable male owner, the falcon named "Angel" wanders around the house for a few days and then wails and never returns!

And Miao Yunchang's wife, Wu He, has not remarried anyone else so far. With his son Wangwang was an orphan and widow first, when Miao Yunchang was alive in the past, he built another room, after Miao Yunchang was not there, a widow only took a young child to live, and he was afraid that he would cause trouble, so he let his in-laws move in together, Wu He also has Miao Yunchang's withdrawn character, rarely interacting with people in the village, but it is also hearty to talk to people, and now the old and young people live in three generations. Wu He did not remarry, and it was not all for her husband to keep filial piety for three years.

At first, the mediators had to break the threshold, and the widow became a hot commodity. But they were all rejected by Wu He, saying that her in-laws were old, and there were no other children around to take care of, if she got married and left, how could she live by leaving the old couple, she stayed to provide for the two old people! In addition, it is necessary to raise Wangwang as an adult, so as to leave descendants for the Miao family.

Someone persuaded her that it was okay to sit on the mountain and recruit a husband, but she let out her tone and said: "She will not remarry, I am afraid that I will find a stepfather for the child to suffer, and I can't bear to leave my in-laws behind!" ”

This reason seems to be stronger than the others.

When Tao Zhenkun heard this, he didn't know whether to be happy or sad.

Is she keeping a holiday for a man?

This man is lucky, but he will make a woman unhappy!

However, he admired Wu He's move very much.

It is the old bachelor Zhu Le's virtuous one, and he shamelessly asked the matchmaker to ask for a kiss behind his back, it was really a toad who wanted to eat swan meat, and the result was conceivable, it was all a cat biting a urine bag - empty joy!

To say a word of conscience, don't look at Zhu Leqi's unattractive appearance, but he will also live, people don't work hard, he is alone, and he lives a decent life, but he is stingy, and everyone knows it. To put it in a joke, even if you catch a toad, you can get urine; If you fart and pop out a bean, you won't wipe it and eat it again; Pluck the roots, and the hairs want to be straightened when the beam is used. He is frugal, just dreaming of marrying a wife one day. Those in the know know that he is not only like a dwarf who popped out of Lilliputian, but also may be a tuberculosis seedling, and whoever marries him is afraid that he will become a widow prematurely!

People also know that Wu He is filial, and what he says is definitely not hypocritical, and his behavior is very respected by people. Moreover, her in-laws also love her, which has become the reason why she can't bear to leave the second elder and remarry.

After a long time, there are also rumors and speculations: A young handsome widow can endure the loneliness of sleeplessness? Is there no more spring heart? Maybe there are people in the village who don't know each other.

But who will be the best one? It is really difficult to find suspicious clues from her dignified and steady words and deeds, and she has never caught any men deviating from her handle, and she rarely visits the door or shows her eyebrows in front of men! Some people think that there are people with dirty hearts and lungs who are spreading rumors and slandering and pouring sewage on the body of the widow Wu He! The well-wishers were indignant and shouted grievances for her! Especially Tao Zhenkun, he couldn't believe that this would be true, he was afraid of insulting Wu He's sacred image in his heart!

At this time, Want Want raised his little face and asked Tao Zhenkun: "Is it fighting elsewhere?" ”

Not far from the river, on the branch of a willow tree, there is a green kingfisher, at this time in a posture of overlooking seems to have found a target in the river that can be hunted, spread its wings and rush down, and instantly break out of the water, it still fell in the original position, shook its feathers a few times, and swallowed a small fish in its mouth on its neck, and the river was still splashing. The wild flowers in the vigorous grass are blooming in purple and red, and the dark fragrance floats in the air, attracting bees and butterflies to dance, and nostalgia to and from the stamens. The toad sings and the cricket whispers, the grasshopper jumps and flies, the scenery is beautiful and picturesque, it is really pleasing to the eye and beautiful.

"Hey, I'm asking you! What are you thinking? ”

"yes!" Tao Zhenkun was a little absent-minded and took his gaze back. Because I was thinking about a ridiculous thing that happened yesterday, my wife actually said that her husband was a hooligan and sued her father and mother. He really likes Liu Xingmei, and after looking forward to it for many years, she finally became his own woman (in fact, she is still famous), but her body and mind do not belong to him!

"Is it the Eighth Route Army and the Japanese devils?"

"Yes. In our place, there is a team of anti-unions. ”

"What is the Anti-Alliance?"

"I heard that it is the Northeast Anti-Japanese Coalition Army, which specializes in fighting Japanese devils."

"Why do you want to fight?"

"It was the Japanese devils who invaded our country."

"What is aggression?"

"That is, it means to infringe on the territory and sovereignty of other countries, to plunder wealth and to enslave the people of other countries, in short, to occupy them." Regarding this kind of knowledge term, Tao Zhenkun obtained it from other people's mouths.

"Damn! Why don't they stay in their own country?" Want Want's angry tone was filled with mood swings.

"I want to expand my territory!" When Tao Zhenkun replied lightly, his tone contained helplessness and confusion.

From childhood to adulthood, the farthest place he set foot in was the county seat, which was only limited to a radius of 100 miles. He does not know the size of his homeland, and it is even more difficult to know the capacity of the whole world. For some things in the outside world, they are either hearsay or rumored from the villagers, but most of them are learned from Miao Yunchang's mouth. Sometimes, it even made him have the sad idea of a toad sitting in a well and watching the sky, counting the days and living a life of inaction in this small village that is poor and comfortable. So he was very envious of Miao Yunchang, thinking that he must be a person who traveled from south to north, otherwise how could he meet more knowledgeable. Just like the sentence that Miao Yunchang often shouted in his mouth: Please give me wings, I want to fly! In this sentence, he has infinite speculation and reverie about the outside world, and even longing and hope.

"What do Japanese devils look like? Aren't they human? ”

"Of course it's people."

"It's a person, I haven't seen what it looks like, but I heard Mengqi's grandmother say that Japanese devils are not tall, and they have to jump on the kang! Is it true? ”

"That's her fooling the kids!" Of course, Tao Zhenkun has seen devils, there are many counties in the county, because it is Manchukuo established by the Japanese, and Aixinjue Luo Puyi is just a puppet emperor.

"In that case, how nice would it be to catch one and tie it up with a rope to play with a monkey?" Want Want frowned and said innocently.

"Their aircraft artillery is powerful!"

"I also want to be a soldier, so I can fight devils! "Want Want used his finger as a gun to aim at a few trees in the distance as a target, moving back and forth.

"If you want to be a soldier, you have to wait until you grow up, and I don't know if the devil has been driven out of China by then!" Tao Zhenkun likes to talk to this child because the child's inner world is full of innocence and innocence, and it is pure and flawless, without the cunning and foolishness of adults. So he is willing to approach this child who has been growing up under his nose since he was a child, and he is not willing to mix some boring trivial things with his peers or elders.

As soon as he has the opportunity, he is willing to take Wangwang to dig bird eggs in the trees, go down to the river to catch fish and shrimp, and go up to the mountains to hunt! Even if he goes hunting, he will also choose a place far away from the infestation of fierce beasts, because of the tragic death of his father, so he must keep the child away from danger. Due to the absence of his father, Want Want is very isolated by his friends in the village, and he is left out in the cold, and he will also have an inferiority complex in his young heart, so his personality is also a little withdrawn, which is very similar to his father in this regard. He also feels the same way, and has a lot of sympathy for the same disease, this big and small two people are like friends who have forgotten their years. And Want Want often hunkers around him like a fart, full of attachment, as if he can find the lost father's love in him.

There are no classes in the village, and all cultural knowledge comes from the superficial ink in the stomachs of the elders, and most of the people are illiterate!

Tao Zhenkun turned his head to look at a big willow tree by the river not far from here, the tree looked thick and old, and an adult couldn't hug it, but the tree looked strange, different, and particularly eye-catching, because half of the tree body was necrotic, and there was no bark in the shape of a bare skeleton, and a few thick dry tree stems were like curved ox horns, and the other side of the living was luxuriant, as if he was deliberately unwilling to want to compete with his companions. There was a crack in the middle of the tree, which was said to have been struck by lightning a long time ago. In his memory, his father had stood under the tree many times and touched the sadness, because the young grandmother was working in the field when there was heavy rain, and when she hid under the tree to carry the rain, she was killed by a thunderbolt, and the second aunt who followed her was also struck dumb by lightning. There was a crow's nest in the tree, and two crows were crowing on it.

Even now, some people in the village will cut down the wooden blocks of this tree and take them back, it is said that this is lightning strike wood, which has the effect of exorcism and evil spirits.

According to others, his grandfather Tao Vision was also an excellent hunter back then, but he had never seen it, just like he had never seen his grandmother, because his grandmother died earlier, and his grandfather went out to work before he was born, and he has been gone for twenty years, and he has not been heard from since. When he grew up, he asked about it, but his father's answer was understated, and if he didn't ask, he would never mention it. In his opinion, his father should be a filial person, which can be concluded from the fact that he went to the ancestral grave a few days in advance to burn paper during the New Year's holidays, but for some reason he had to avoid his grandfather's past, which he was puzzled about, and seemed to be hiding something.

"You two are very affectionate!"

As soon as Tao Zhenkun turned around, he saw a young woman with a sickle in one hand walking towards with a smile on her face, and a bundle of grass was placed not far away. Looking at this still beautiful woman, his heart fluttered inexplicably.
