Chapter 7 Entering the Faculty for the First Time
As for "Commander Yu's" disdain for himself, Mr. Chen, Yu Xinhe, and Yu Xinmin looked at each other and smiled. They didn't teach this naughty boy who didn't know the height of the sky, on the contrary, Teacher Chen suddenly exerted his strength and disappeared from everyone's eyes in an instant.
It turned out that Yu Songyuan's thatched hut had walls three or four meters high, and Mr. Chen gently scurried and went directly to the eaves.
I saw him like a light civet cat, walking like a fly on the thatched roofs of each house, and his body was as light as a swallow. Jumping off the house, he picked up the thick green bricks next to the pigsty, and with a light palm, he broke all six green bricks stacked together. Then, on the simple horizontal bar that he made himself, he hooked the bar with one little finger to easily make a string of beautiful pull-ups xiangshang......
God, didn't you say he was sick, why was he so powerful?
That night, the moonlight was like water, the breeze was gentle, and Mr. Chen simply showed such a small hand, which completely shocked Commander Yu and his little brothers.
So, Yu Songyuan took the lead, and the four of them honestly knelt on the ground to worship the teacher.
Since then, Mr. Chen began to carefully teach the four apprentices, starting from the basics of standing piles, finger strength, wrist strength, fist strength, jumping over, pit jumping, etc., to learn the basic skills and basic jishu of technical attack and light skills.
Yu Songyuan was nine years old and in the second grade. He remembered that not long after his apprenticeship, the most talked about thing by the adults after dinner was that Lin Biao failed to murder Chairman Mao, drove a trident plane, defected to Su Xiu, and as a result, he fell into the sand and fell to his death in the Mongolian Wendurhan steppe.
Teacher Chen is an authentic combat fighting teacher in the provincial capital, which is different from those who are masters in the mountains. Not only is his own martial arts good and hidden, but his biggest strength is that he is good at teaching and daring to punish.
When he first started to practice the basic skills, he was very strict with horse steps, lunges, flipper steps, pit jumps, sandbags, sand pots, somersaturns, weight-bearing squatting and running, etc., and he couldn't be sloppy. The four apprentices, if they were a little slack, were immediately severely punished, and they didn't talk about any affection.
After a few days, the naughty boys' muscles and joints were unbearable, they couldn't grasp the chopsticks when eating, and they didn't dare to take big strides when they walked.
By the time he was in the fifth grade, Yu Songyuan's skills had made great progress and he was deeply loved by Mr. Chen. Finger strength, palm power, fist power, leg strength and waist strength are greatly improved, palm splitting green bricks, fist smashing planks are not a problem, light skills are even worse, much higher than his own head of the deep pit, he can easily bounce out with leg strength.
In the brick house of the school, he can grasp the tiles with his hands, step on the wall with his feet, hang in the air half-hanging, and walk freely under the eaves. Chen Lan, "Xi Shi" and "Fat Dun" are relatively stupid, although they are not as big as Yu Song, but they are still easy to deal with an adult.
Teacher Chen is a strict teacher, and his punishment is also the most shocking for the aunts.
Once Yu Songyuan and Chen Lan were a little slack when practicing, Mr. Chen asked "Xi Shi" and "Fat Dun" to lift their hind legs respectively, and walked ten laps with both hands around the threshing floor of the production team at night. After getting up, the neck, shoulders, arms, and wrists were completely unconscious. Only the next day, the two didn't dare to use pencils in class, and they didn't dare to hold chopsticks when eating.
Aunt Wang Feng was so angry that she lived in Yu Yueyue's house for three days in a row, didn't go back to cook, and didn't let Teacher Chen get close at night. Yu Yueyue and Wang Feng hugged the two little livers and cried like tears. While feeding the two of them, he scolded Teacher Chen with tears.
The professor came to persuade them and said, "Strict teachers make high apprentices, you don't understand, don't blame their masters." The two scolded in unison, tiger venom does not eat children, his heart is more ruthless than a snake and scorpion.
However, as long as it is night, after the two of them have enjoyed their overflowing maternal love and endless love, they will consciously and actively participate in martial arts, which makes Yu Yueyue and Wang Feng half angry.
When Yu Songyuan was four or five years old, his eldest brother Yu Songdong joined the army, and later he was promoted. His family has five grass rooms, and he originally slept in the same bed with his second brother, but since he was nine years old, he has had an independent large room and a big bed. So, playing too late in the evening, the four of them huddled in this bed.
In winter, it was cold, so She Wenfang specially added a thick quilt for them. Later, they either slept at Yu Songyuan's house at night, or slept in Chen Lan's or "Xi Shi's" house. There are only "fat dun families", and due to the large population, they can't squeeze it.
Yu Songyuan occasionally had the experience of sleepwalking in his childhood, which made his mother She Wenfang very troubled, and even begged him for a few Langzhong decoctions to eat.
He would squeeze into his parents' bed at night, squeeze his father Yu Xinhe out of the quilt, and sleep with his mother in his arms, but he didn't know what was going on at dawn. Yu Xinhe once suffered from frostbite at night, and he took a few doses of Yu Xinmin's decoction.
Once it was also winter, the four brothers were originally crammed into Chen Lan's bed to sleep. In the middle of the night, somehow, I walked into the east room and squeezed into Mr. Chen's bed. At dawn, he was lying in Wang Feng's arms, his head resting on Wang Feng's arm, and he was sleeping sweetly.
Teacher Chen glared and muttered, this little bastard. Wang Feng woke up, and when he saw this, he scolded with a smile, "I don't know how to eat the vinegar of eight or nine-year-old children, it's okay to die of acid." ”
In Yu Songyuan's childhood memories, the most memorable thing for him is several sleepwalks in Shu Tong's house.
Shu's family, like Mr. Chen's family, has a small population and many houses. The professor's grandmother lives in the west head room, and Yu Yueyue lives in the east head room. The main room is the largest, in addition to daily living, there is also a large bed, which is the world of Yu Songyuan and his brothers. Yu Songyuan would occasionally sleepwalk and squeeze into his grandmother's bed, and occasionally squeeze into Yu Yueyue's bed.
Once, when he woke up, he was sleeping at the professor's feet, wrapped tightly in the bed. The professor's two old windy and cold legs made him very comfortable and felt very relaxed this night. Grandma said, "In the future, I will sleep with my grandmother at night and give grandma her feet." ”
From then on, as long as the weather was cold, he and Shu would take turns to give their grandmother a foot.
He also often sleepwalks into the beds of Yu Yueyue, his aunt and his mother. When I woke up, I was lying in their warm arms, pillowing their arms, and sleeping very soundly.
For his sleepwalking problem, his mother once asked Yu Yueyue and Wang Feng to copy a number of "leaflets" and paste them on telephone poles or walls at intersections. During that time, "The Emperor of Heaven, the Emperor of the Earth, I have a night wanderer in my house." The passer-by read it three times, and slept until daylight", making it all over the village and outside the village.
Yu Xinhe couldn't stand it anymore, so he said: "His sleepwalking problem is mainly caused by his subconscious attachment to his mother, and it would be nice to be older." "My mother has always been obedient to my father's words, so I am not busy. Come to think of it, he never sleepwalked somewhere else, swimming around, all in the beds of several women, in their arms.
The four mothers slowly regarded his sleepwalking syndrome as a pleasure and talked about it with relish. You think, after falling asleep, there is suddenly a smooth, fleshy eight or nine-year-old boy in his arms, like a child attached to his mother, holding them tightly, sleeping so sweetly, this scene makes them one by one moved to the mother's love super flooded.
The 70s was an era of scarcity of materials, and urban consumption was supplied by tickets, such as food stamps, cloth stamps, meat stamps, egg stamps, etc., which are the memories of people living in which era they can never erase.
In the rural areas of that era, after the grain of the production team was handed over to the public grain, it was distributed to each family, and it was not enough to feed the belly of the family. Spring famine is the most serious life problem faced by every peasant family.
In the Yujiacun Brigade, the sixth squad has the highest level of production. Originally, according to the normal proportion of public rations, the six squads would not go hungry. However, in the past few years, satellites have been put on satellites to falsely report output, and the base for handing over is too high, and most of the grain has been handed over to the public grain.
The work of the sixth squad was only worth a few cents a job at the end of the year. The farmers of the whole village worked hard for a year, and when they arrived in Zuihou, they were left with tight rations.
She Wenfang and She Wenxiu sisters have always been diligent and thrifty, and they and Yu Xinhe and Yu Xinmin brothers experienced a cruel test of survival during the Anti-Japanese War. For them, the spring famine is not a problem at all.
At that time, there were fewer people than now, and there was "food" in the barren beaches, river beaches, river ditches, and other barren beaches and wilderness, and no matter how little food was, they also had a way to deal with the spring famine.
But for Yueyue and Wang Feng, the two housewives of the decentralized household, how to feed the whole family is a big problem. Two cultural women who had just started to live a peasant life, when the spring famine came, they were helpless in the face of the embarrassing situation of the two families falling into the embarrassing situation of having no rice to cook.
In rural areas, a housewife's ability is more reflected in whether she can "live".
The extremely limited rations distributed by the production team each year are the food of the peasants' whole family for a year, and they must be carefully calculated and drained for a long time in order not to go hungry. The family's economic income depends on raising pigs and chickens. At the end of the year, the pig is sold to the public, which is the main income of the year, and the children's tuition, the family's clothing, weddings and funerals and other large expenses all depend on the money from selling pigs.
The eggs laid by chickens are sold to supply and marketing cooperatives in exchange for change to buy foreign oil (kerosene for lighting lamps), foreign fire (matches), foreign cloth (white cloth) and weighing salt. The vegetables that farmers usually eat mainly rely on small vegetables grown in their own fields of less than one acre per household.
In the two or three years when Yu Yueyue and Wang Feng just moved from the city, they still didn't know how to live with their families, and their limited rations were always not enough. They are not good at growing vegetables, raising pigs, and chickens, and in the spring of the first year, they can't open the pot. Fortunately, Yu Xinhe and Yu Xinmin's brothers did their best to help, and She Wenfang and She Wenxiu tried their best to teach them the "skills" of running a family, so they barely survived the spring famine.
The rations were already tight, dragged down by the Yueyue and Wang Feng families, Yu Xinhe and Yu Xinmin, the biggest problem in which years was how to fill their bellies.
Yu Songyuan is known as the "Four Brothers of the Yu Family" in school, and in the entire primary and junior high school, their learning is always the most haode. Especially Shu Tong, always the first in the same grade. Good study, hard fists, high prestige, and morality have won the favor of the teachers. They often skip school, but the private teachers never bother them.
Yu Songyuan's favorite thing to do is to take his brothers to find food.
Fish, catching grasshoppers, digging birds' eggs, catching sparrows, sticking to the knowledge, digging the soil dog (northern Jiangsu dialect, knowing the chrysalis), catching frogs (frogs, read hua here, the third tone) and so on, as long as it can be eaten, almost everything is caught, everything is fine.
At that time, the people in the village were busy with agriculture, and the three levels of the village organized farmers to carry out farmland and water conservancy construction and dig ditches to control salinity. These ditches and rivers have become the main battlefield of Yu Songyuan's four people, spring, summer, autumn and winter all year round, fishing, is what they are most willing to do.
At the critical moment when the four adults were fighting to fill their bellies, Yu Songyuan, the playboy and his brothers, made a great contribution to the victory of the big family of the four families over the spring famine.
