The 940th octopus has a deep water feeling

"The rivers are full of rivers, the three barriers, and the eyes are full of red and bright flowers; Generations of ancestors have lived like years, counting the sorghum stalks on the loess slope; One by one, the souls of the dead went to southern Yunnan, and met a benefactor who could be fed and clothed; The trembling heart, the bitter and sweet, An Jiajun's kindness is as thin as the sky......"

An Yi, who was harvesting with the villagers and sweating like rain, raised his head in surprise, looked around for the people who were singing, and found that the villagers and officers and soldiers all over the field stopped the sickles in their hands, straightened their waists, and listened to the desolate and almost simple singing voice.

On the green hillside to the northeast, a thin black man with a white towel still wrapped in his head turned to the sky, closed his eyes, and shouted out the Xintianyou tune that had been passed down from his ancestors for generations, and the unstoppable tears in his eyes had flowed to his dark neck with bulging green muscles.

Under the big tree behind the man, there sat a woman holding a child and breastfeeding with her clothes open, she sometimes looked at the herd of cattle grazing leisurely around her, and sometimes looked at her husband who dared to sing to thousands of villagers and officers and soldiers in front of her for the first time when he opened his throat for the first time. The woman met the lame husband in front of her on the way to escape, when the woman's children and the old man all died of illness on the way to the wilderness at the junction of Hubei and Shaanxi, and none of the refugees rolling south had the strength to look at her, it was her current husband, a thirty-eight-year-old cripple who couldn't even take care of herself, and occasionally saw that she could still hum, so he picked her up from the pile of dead people, staggered all the way, went through hardships, and carried her to the shelter set up by the An Jiajun in Baihe County, northwest Hubei Province.

The twenty-year-old woman with a good face was dying at the time, it was the treatment of the military doctor of the An family, and it was this lame man who took care of her day and night for more than 20 days, she was lucky to survive, and came to southern Sichuan after she recovered, she married this sheep herding baby who was eighteen years older than her and had never touched a woman ** in her life.

When she migrated to southern Yunnan again, the woman was already pregnant, and she was taken care of by the farm and the political representatives of the An Jiajun, and not only was she the first to receive a house quilt, pots and pans, and half an acre of vegetable land, but also became the co-owner of more than 13,000 acres of fertile land and a radius of more than 10 miles of mountains, forests and pastures.

Women can never forget the day when their children were full moon, and at the same time, Jia Hejun, the elder of the villagers in northern Shaanxi, came to congratulate him with a large bag of gifts, and gave himself and her husband a new task before leaving: the farm has just been allocated 80 sturdy cattle, and your family will no longer have to chase the number to go to the field from today onwards.

Over the past few months, eighty cattle have been fat and strong under the careful care of the lame couple, and twenty-seven of them have given birth to calves, and the couple who are not short of oil and salt, food and clothing have been publicly praised several times, and the names of the husband and wife have been on the honor roll of the blackboard newspaper every month, and the husband who has been withdrawn and cowardly since childhood also has a smiling face, and often hums a few words of hometown songs to joke with his own woman during the cattle herding, but like today, the woman has never seen it before. The woman even thought that she didn't expect to hear her husband's nice song in her life, but never dared to sing it out loud, but today she heard it.

After a short period of panic and shyness, the woman stared at her timid husband, looking at the golden rice fields and the black villagers at the foot of the mountain, and a sense of happiness and pride that she had never felt before flowed in the woman's heart, warm, so warm that her tears were also hot.

On the field, An Yi took the water handed by a beautiful woman, thanked him in a low voice, glanced at the five windmills shaking on the sunning lawn, and the naked young men who were beaten away from the rice ears in groups around the big wooden barrels in all directions, exhaled the hot air, and drank a bowl full of water in one gulp.

"General, do you want another bowl?"

The young and beautiful woman has a good voice, a faint smile on her dignified and moist face, a restrained demeanor and a graceful body, which makes An Yi feel a stunning sense of dizziness at first sight.

An Yi wiped the sweat from his face and thanked him in a low voice: "Enough, thank you...... Zhu Yun, go and persuade your father, don't let him get tired, the work of shaking the windmill is done by young people, be careful to twist your waist, the gains outweigh the losses. ”

Zhu Yun looked at his father Zhu Zizhan, who tied the hem of his robe around his waist on the sunbath, couldn't help but smile, and explained in a low voice: "Don't worry general, although my father is old, he gets up every day before dawn to box...... Growing up so big, I've never seen my father so happy and childlike today......"

An Yi was quite surprised when he saw Zhu Yun covering his mouth and smiling, and looked at Zhu Zizhan again, who was agitating the windmill and shouting for the addition of grain, and thought about walking to the side of Zhu Yaoliang, the director of the Civil Affairs Bureau:

"Brother Yaoliang, Zhu Lao's eldest son Zhu Yun is still studying at South Sichuan University of Political Science and Law, and his younger son is studying at the High School Attached to the University of Science and Technology, Zhu Yun is also going to study at the University of Political Science and Law this time, is there anyone at home to take care of?"

"General, please rest assured, Zhu Yun is gone, there is a second mother and a few old servants to take care of, if not, there are hundreds of juniors of our Zhu family, and the entire street of West Street in the city where he lives is relatives and friends, I can't make a mistake, besides, my uncle is an old man who is healthy, walks normally, and the idle young man is not as agile as him, and he is not convinced of the old!" Zhu Yaoliang, who has a high nose and deep eyes, is very proud.

An Yi nodded, and suddenly remembered a question: "Brother Yaoliang, I want to ask, your family is very large, is there a big family like your Zhu family in southern Yunnan?" Are you like you, who have kept the inheritance and rules of your ancestors for generations? ”

Zhu Yaoliang thought for a while: "Strictly speaking, it's not much...... We were originally from Huaibei, and our ancestors followed the Yongle Emperor to conquer Yunnan during the Hongwu period, and stayed after quelling the border turmoil...... According to the genealogy handed down for hundreds of years, our ancestors actually reverted to the surname Nangong, because of repeated military exploits were given the surname Zhu, our ancestors stayed in southern Yunnan after the Yongle Emperor's class, and the official position was to command the envoy to the six products of the town, after the Yongle Emperor ascended the throne, the second generation of the ancestor of the family head Jin Zheng Wupin Xuanfu Si Shi, since then has been staying in southern Yunnan, branches. During the reign of the Qing Dynasty, all of my Zhu family resigned, returned to the field, and never returned to their hometown in Huaibei. ”

"No wonder your Zhu family has such excellent etiquette and solid culture." An Yi was sincerely admired.

Zhu Yaoliang said with a smile: "The general has won the award!" In fact, there are two families here in Yunnan that also have a long history, like our Zhu family, came to Yunnan in the early years of the Ming Dynasty, took root, that is, the Mu family and the Li family in Dali, they are all the heroes of the grandfather who stayed in Yunnan, almost all the families fell after Wu Sangui led the Qing soldiers to capture Yunnan, including many predecessors of my Zhu family, all died in the resistance to the Qing soldiers, the Mu family and the Li family were even more miserable, and disappeared for a while, and then the Qing court gradually relaxed the rule before they surfaced again, and lived carefully. Our Zhu family is located in southern Yunnan, the region is far away, poisons and miasma are rampant, and the rule of the Qing court is weak, which is why the family is so prosperous today.

"For hundreds of years, many of the old rules of the ancestors have quietly changed, such as my Zhu family side branch, my mother is a member of the Yi tribe, my uncle's Zhu Yun and Zhu Mu brothers are born to the Li aunt of the ancestral home of Fengyang, pure Han blood, and Zhu Yun's sister is born to the second mother of the Hui nationality who has lived here for seven generations, and I am the same, the appearance is slightly different from the brothers and sisters in the clan, and our generations of people due to intermarriage, many people can speak two or three minority languages, get along well with the surrounding ethnic groups, and come and go all year round. But she is the only one who is as smart as Zhu Yunmei and can speak almost all ethnic languages, so the council decided to let her follow the general to inspect various places from tomorrow and serve as a translator, and only she can talk to the heads of various cottages, no matter which ethnic group likes her, and regards her as their own people, especially the Hui villagers, they are about to treat her as a princess, haha! ”

An Yi then understood why Zhu Yaoliang and Zhu Yun both had the characteristics of high noses and deep eyes, both of them inherited the advantages of the two nationalities in terms of figure and appearance, and the thirty-four-year-old Zhu Yaoliang looked tough and tough, with a dignified appearance; Zhu Yun, who is twenty-eight years old and newly widowed, has slender legs, a tall nose, a pair of charming eyes that seem to have a faint chestnut color, and it is rare that the skin is delicate, the figure is slender, and there is an indescribable beauty and connotation.

Zhu Yun, who was not far away, seemed to hear her brothers Zhu Yaoliang and An Yi talking about her, and looked slightly cramped, quickly raised her head, stroked the long hair flowing in the wind, took the ear of rice handed by a little girl, took out a silk handkerchief, squatted down to wipe the dust off the little girl's face, and her beautiful and sexy red lips showed a charming smile.

The moment Zhu Yun got up and turned his head, An Yi hurriedly looked away, buttoned the two buttons that were open on his chest, and looked up to see Jia Xing, a tall farm elder who was nearly sixty years old, coming over in a hurry, so he called Zhu Yaoliang to go to the sunbath.

Lao Jia hurriedly bowed to An Yi and shouted the good news: "General, we have weighed the millet laid by six acres of land in a row, the highest yield per mu is 856 catties, the lowest is 680 catties, and the average is 750 catties, which is amazing!" If the circle of Brazilian corn, peanuts and high-yielding potatoes planted along the surrounding mountains are harvested, each person in our entire field will have more than 1,000 catties of grain in a year, and every family will not be able to eat the public grain, plus the harvest of fish ponds and forest farms...... General, all of us have become rich! ”

An Yi knew that the harvest of millet would yield more than 400 kilograms per mu when converted into kilograms, and it was still far from the goal in his heart, but he was still very happy:

"Uncle, this is really good news! Also, the high-yield potato varieties are not called 'forced dew', which were transported by our officials stationed in the United States from a country called Peru in South America by sea steamer, and last year there was a bumper harvest in southern Sichuan, hehe! Uncle, I remember that when our government asked everyone to leave southern Sichuan, most of the villagers were panicked, and many of them came in tears all the way. ”

The hundreds of villagers who were watching smiled embarrassedly, but the straightforward and honest Lao Jia didn't care, grinned and laughed, took An Yi's hand, and said with great concern:

"General, the fathers and villagers are not only grateful to the general and our soldiers, but also think every day about Mr. Liyang, who was so tired that he vomited blood and was sent back to the Syrian Military Hospital for treatment, as well as his three students, if Mr. hadn't gritted his teeth and insisted on planting this new rice seed that had not even been planted in southern Sichuan, how could there be today's harvest?

"Since the day of sprinkling the grain seeds, Mr. has led the three students to squat in the paddy field every day, the wind and rain can't stop them, the scorching sun has dried them all, the villagers are so distressed! During the days of tasseling, there was a sudden heavy rainstorm, Mr. and the students were very anxious, and organized us to inspect the canals and rice fields overnight, and they fell ill when they came back at dawn, and Mr. vomited blood at that time, but he insisted on not letting me say it, and said that it was an old problem, and it was soon fine, and continued to go to the field every day without two days of rest, leading the students to record and test. I couldn't hold it anymore so I went home and lay down, and from time to time I was told how to fertilize, saying that in the second half of the year, the field should be planted with safflower grass and rapeseed......"

When Lao Jia said this, his voice was choked, the old tears were overflowing, he sniffed sharply, and begged: "General, don't let Mr. come in the second half of the year, just let a few students come, and ah, the villagers have decided, grind out a bag of rice from the first grain that was harvested first, and then open the furnace to make wine, and then trouble the general to give it to Mr. Liyang for the villagers, and when we are rich next year, we will build an ancestral hall, invite the best carpenters and bricklayers, and invite Mr. Liyang's sandalwood statue to enter, and together with our benefactor An Jiajun, we will become the person we will remember for generations." ”

"Uncle...... Good! I agreed. ”

An Yi held Lao Jia's hand tightly, pondered for a moment, and said loudly: "Fellow villagers, after I decide to go back, I will immediately submit an application report to the Pacification Office and the Parliament, and change the name of the rice we harvested today to 'Liyang Rice'!" In the name of Mr. Li Yang, this kind of rice seed that was brought back from the Xialiao area in the south and harvested for the first time in our land after two years of hybrid improvement, and gave Mr. Li Yang and his research team the highest reward! ”

The villagers were overjoyed and applauded in unison, and when they saw the officers and soldiers and officials around them applauding warmly, they all slapped vigorously.

Zhu Yun on the side saw all this, extremely moved, just as the director of the Political Department Zhan Zhi was standing not far from her, Zhu Yun thought about it, walked to Zhan Zhi's side, and suggested in a low voice:

"General, if the matter of Yingpanshan Farm can be published in the newspaper, it will be a great encouragement to the people."

Zhan Zhi nodded slightly, pointing to the two cameras on the tall haystack: "See?" After we go back, our Political Department will organize a special film crew to come to southern Yunnan, and we will also invite the big directors and photographers of the Shanghai Oriental Film Company to shoot a few documentaries to record our entrepreneurial process in southern Yunnan and show us that our life is getting better day by day, and we must let the whole of China know what kind of spirit the military and civilians in southern Yunnan have. ”

Zhu Yun admired it very much: "The general is too thoughtful!" ”

Zhan Zhi shook his head and smiled: "It's nothing, I originally ate this bowl of rice, hehe!" By the way, Zhu Yun, you have become one of the young cadres focused on training by our special district government, when will you go to Syria to report for further study? ”

"I don't know yet...... General, I have never left Simao, and the farthest place I went to was Kunming, but I was only eleven or twelve years old at that time, and I went by carriage, and I was tired to death, and I didn't remember much, but I just felt that Kunming was so big, hehe! Also, I've never been on a plane before, can I fly with you to Syria? Zhu Yun asked expectantly.

Zhan Zhi thought about it and replied: "I can't make a decision on this matter, you better ask our commander yourself, you start tomorrow, don't you want to serve as our commander's personal interpreter?" When the time comes, you can find a chance to talk to him, and I don't think it's a big problem. ”

Zhu Yun nodded and said goodbye, returned to the place where he was standing, and looked at An Yi, who was gathering with Lao Jia and his father to discuss, and was unconsciously stunned.

There was a burst of applause, Zhu Yun came back to his senses and applauded, looking at An Yi, who was handsome and had a charming smile on his face, he suddenly felt that his heart was beating faster, and his little face became spicy.
