22. It's really hot today
Shi Ke was sick, lying on the bed for three days, this disease is good, people are spiritual, Shi Keke is not a person who can be encircled in the house, the villain is lively, the two brothers run outside the house every day with sweat, a moment to give her a grasshopper, a while with a handful of dog tail grass to weave a hairy dog for her, sister, this sister, that one, Shi Ke's heart is itchy, as long as Yan Siqin enters the house, she can ask for her mother's opinion with her eyes, Yan Siqin sees that she is really good, Besides, Shi Ke, a small-eyed person, really couldn't bear to circle her anymore, so he allowed her to let off the wind in the yard.
The free air is really good, the blue is transparent, the green is clean, the red is lovely, the purple is attractive, in short, everything is so fresh and comfortable.
Shi Ke inspected the yard, cucumbers, eggplants are rare, and finally moved a small horse to sit in front of the chicken coop to watch the chickens lay eggs.
In the chicken coop paved with wheat straw, there are two chickens lying there, one is flowery, the other is black and shiny, both chickens have red cockscombs, and a pair of black eyes the size of soybeans on the same red face are very cute.
For fear of scaring the hen that was laying eggs, Shi Ke wore a small flower gown that Yan Siqin made for her, and sat in front of the chicken nest with bated breath, and the hen also lay motionless in the egg nest staring at her, and there was no movement for half a sound. Shi Ke was a little anxious, just here, the face of the flower hen seemed to be even redder, and he saw that it had gathered enough strength to make a fierce effort, and after waiting for a while, it flew down from the egg nest, proudly stretching its thin neck and "clucking, clucking" and screaming.
Shi Ke stood up and looked into the nest, a pale yellow egg was lying there quietly, Shi Ke looked back, Yan Siqin was watering the vegetable garden, she raised her little short legs, ran to Yan Siqin's side upside down, and pulled the corner of her mother's clothes: "Mother, the chicken has laid eggs, and there are eggs in the nest." ”
Yan Siqin put down the gourd scoop in his hand and took Shi Ke's little hand: "Yes, let's go, let's take a look." ”
Shi Ke came and went, the black hen also jumped down from the chicken nest, the two chickens saw Yan Siqin, "clucking" is more diligent, Yan Siqin opened the door of the chicken coop, more than 20 chickens rushed to run on the hill outside the door, Shi Ke was anxious, pointed to the chickens and shouted: "Mother, mother, the chicken has run away!" ”
"It's okay, they'll know they'll come back later." Yan Siqin picked up the basket hanging on the wall and led Shi Ke to the back of the egg nest: "Let's pick up the eggs first, and my mother will take you to the small hill for a spin in a while, there are still a few nests on it, and a few chickens like to lay eggs there." ”
"Hmm." Shi Ke's little head was little by little, and she obediently stretched out her little hand and took the eggs handed to her by Yan Siqin, the newly laid eggs, touching them warmly, Shi Ke still touched the hot raw eggs for the first time, she smiled happily, and her eyebrows and eyes were crooked.
Yan Siqin looked condescendingly, and saw the little girl's black and long eyelashes trembling slightly, a pair of childish big eyes were clear and clear, as bright as stars, the three-day hospital bed lingered, the skin without sunlight was a little pale, the lips were dark pink, and the two rows of neatly arranged teeth glowed as soft as small pearls.
Yan Siqin felt that her little girl was so good-looking, she couldn't see enough of it, she didn't know how to hurt her, so she wanted to give her the best, delicious, fun and the best clothes, she loved to see the child laugh the most, and she was happy when the child was happy.
Zhao Yu and Zhao Chen have already shown off the fact that they have picked up a beautiful sister in their small circle of friends, the friends are curious, and they have long wanted to meet, but Shi Ke is sick, and the two brothers of the Zhao family are not allowed to disturb the big guys, and the friends who are playing outside the gate at this time heard the sound of talking in the yard, and they all looked inside the door frame, and Meizi spoke first: "Auntie, is my sister sick?" ”
Yan Siqin and Shi Ke looked away, and saw a row of little heads by the door looking at the two of them, Yan Siqin looked at Shi Ke first, saw the eager eyes of the little girl doll, and asked, "Coco, do you want to play with children?" ”
Shi Ke nodded hurriedly, the magnitude comparable to a chicken's pecking rice: "Hmm." ”
Yan Siqin beckoned to the door: "Come in." ”
Hula, a group of children ran in.
Meizi's full name is Zhao Mei, and Zhao Liangsheng's family is her own family, and she is still a relative who has not come out of the five suits, this time, she ran the fastest, and in the blink of an eye, she was already standing in front of Yan Siqin and his wife.
Zhao Mei is very festive, with a round little face, round eyes, including the tip of the little nose, she tilted her little head and stood in front of Shi Ke: "My name is Zhao Mei, I'm 6 years old, what about you?" ”
"My name is Li Hui."
"My name is Bolt Column."
"My name is Chaochao."
……
The children are scrambling to declare their names.
The degree of enthusiasm that Shi Ke didn't expect made Shi Ke a little embarrassed, she hid beside Yan Siqin, and poked her little head out to look at everyone.
Yan Siqin squatted down, took Shi Ke's little hand and introduced: "Coco, they are all older than you, you have to call them brothers and sisters, this is Sister Meizi, Sister Huihui, and Brother Zhuzi...... You know? ”
With the introduction of his mother, Shi Ke sweetly followed and called his sister and brother.
The local villagers speak the local dialect, and the crisp and sweet Mandarin comes over, which is rare and good.
Yan Siqin looked at the children in a circle, stood up and said to Zhao Yu and Zhao Chen who were standing at the back: "Da Zhuang, Erchen, lead my sister to play, be careful not to run far, my sister is just sick, play for a while, and go to the hill to pick up the eggs." ”
The mother let go, the friends cheered, Meizi stepped forward and grabbed Shi Ke's little hand: "Let's go, we'll take you out to play." ”
Shi Ke glanced at Yan Siqin, and when he saw his mother nodding, he followed his friends out of the door with shining eyes.
Rural children, there are not many toys for their pastime, are their own in life to discover, create, tile, jumping bands, rolling hoops, etc., the most interesting is the little boy's toy dung stove, when it comes to dung stove, must be inseparable from dung, but this dung is not human or other small animal dung, human dung can not play, that is so disgusting, really can't play. This dung specifically refers to cow dung, cows eat grass, the grass is not completely digested in the stomach, the excrement contains a large amount of broken grass, and the pieces of cow dung are collected and dried for later use, why is it called standby, because there is also a process of making a stove.
The living yellow mud is kneaded into the shape of the stove, and there is an air outlet as a chimney on it, the stove is not big, a slap can be lifted, and it is also dried, when playing, the dung cake is broken into pieces and ignited with fire, and the furnace mouth runs up against the wind, you see, with the flow of air, the position of the air outlet will float out a series of bright and shining sparks, especially at night, the string of sparks is spectacular.
Of course, this is only a special toy for boys, little girls generally do not participate in it, girls are quiet and reserved, even if they are very excited, they just stand on the periphery, slap and shout hello.
Shi Ke is different, all along, Shi Ke has been treating herself as a boy, and besides, she is not a military advisor for nothing, she will play no matter the game of boys and girls, but she really hasn't played with the dung stove, when the dung stove of the bolt is lit, with the running of the bolt, the series of flames makes Shi Ke breathtaking, this thing is fun! Shi Ke is ready to move.
A little familiar with each other, all the children like this good-looking sister who speaks Mandarin, after a short period of strangeness, Shi Ke quickly became friends with everyone, she pulled Zhao Yu's sleeve, and looked at him expectantly: "Big brother, I also want to play." ”
Look, it's still my Zhao Yu's sister, unlike those girls in the village, who obviously want to play, but still pretend to be dirty, fake model, my sister, if you want to play, you want to play, how sincere and generous.
In fact, it's not that Shi Ke isn't dirty, it's mainly that Shi Ke doesn't know that the thing that caught up is a poop pulled out by a cow, she thinks it's a ball of hay.
Zhao Yu is very domineering, very big brother, his small chin raised: "Sister, you wait, I'll give you a go." After saying that, he ran to the bolt pillar and asked for the dung stove without much effort.
In fact, he didn't need to ask for it, as soon as Zhao Yu mentioned that Coco's sister wanted to play, the bolt pillar was busy dedicating his small stove, followed Zhao Yu to Shi Ke, took out the broken cow dung block from the pocket of the satchel, filled the small hearth diligently, and did not forget to teach Shi Ke how to play: "Sister, you take it, yes, the chimney is facing the back, I lit the fire?" ”
"Well, let's do it." Shi Ke nodded excitedly, watched the flames get up, and ran with two calves like a bolt, if you want to say that Shi Ke runs like a little antelope, that's not in vain, Shi Ke is fast when he runs, and he has already run back and forth with a lot of smoke. Shi Ke looked behind while running, and the flame caused Shi Ke to scream, it was too exciting, but as soon as she ran back, the grass burned out, and she couldn't get enough of looking at the bolt pillar and asked, "Brother Zhuzi, can I still play?" ”
"I can play, I can play." The bolt pillar was very generous, and he took out all the cow dung blocks in the satchel, so that Shi Ke had a good time.
As long as there are little boys with dung stoves, they all light up their dung stoves, and at Shi Ke's suggestion, everyone starts the competition to see who has the longest Mars, and the little girls also have jobs, they act as referees, and a bunch of children are in full swing for a while.
After a few laps of the race, Shi Ke completely integrated into the small group, but in the end, she was recovering from a serious illness and her body was still relatively weak, and she ran out of energy after a few laps.
On a sunny day, the poisonous sun stood on the head and shone straight on the earth, there was no wind around at all, the friends were sweating profusely, Shi Ke was no exception, her hair was already wet with sweat, and she stuck it on her forehead one by one, she licked her lips, felt very thirsty, and grabbed Zhao Chen, who was still running, and said: "Little brother, let's go home, I want to drink water." ”
Zhao Chen was also thirsty, so he agreed immediately, and after saying goodbye to the children, he took Shi Ke's little hand and was about to go back.
Although it is still unfinished, but God is too hot, one person left, and the rest of the children also had the idea of retreating, and in a blink of an eye, a group of children hula lala walked away.
The three siblings returned home sweating profusely.
In the yard, Yan Siqin was washing vegetables, and when she heard the door ringing and looked up, she was very surprised to see that it looked like this, she frowned and said sharply: "What are you guys doing here!" Hot like this? Come on to me! After speaking, he stopped washing the dishes, wiped his hand on his apron, stood up and glared at the three of them.
Zhao Yu was frightened by his mother's loud voice, he observed his mother's expression, and saw that his mother was faintly angry, and swallowed saliva weakly: "Mother, we didn't do anything, right...... It's just that it's too hot today. After Zhao Yu finished speaking, he secretly tugged on Shi Ke's clothes and motioned for Shi Ke to step forward and speak.
Don't look at Zhao Yuren's small size, he is smart, just looking at his mother's love for Shi Ke in the past few days, my sister will definitely be able to say something.
Feeling that someone was dragging her, Shi Ke turned his head to look at it, and saw that the eldest brother was squeezing his eyes, and he pouted and went to his mother.
Big brother is not righteous! This was Shi Ke's first feeling, but there was no way, she sighed slightly, took the lead in running to Yan Siqin's side, raised her little face and smiled sweetly: "Mother, it's really hot today, it's like ......." Shi Ke's eyes rolled, and a poem suddenly came to mind in her mind, and she continued: "It's like hoeing the day of the noon, the sweat drops into the soil, who knows that the Chinese food on the plate, the grains are all hard." ”
"My little girl." Yan Siqin's heart is about to melt, my obedient is not only good-looking, but also so smart with a little head, and such a little bit of a little person can read poetry.
She squatted down, hugged Shi Ke, and kissed Shi Ke fiercely on the face: "My good boy is amazing." She stretched out her finger and nodded at Zhao Yu's brain: "Look at you, you are so big, you can't do anything, my sister can read poetry at such a young age." After finishing speaking, he forgot to be angry, dragged down the towel from the rope, wiped the sweat off the faces of the three people, and told Zhao Yu to pour water for his younger brothers and sisters in the cold cup in the hall, and he held Shi Ke and led Zhao Chen to sit under the shade of the tree: "Come, be good, read a few more poems to my mother." ”
You can't hold the poem in your back, you have to stand, your hands are behind your back, and your waist is straight, that's the standard.
Wang Ying has been a primary school teacher for several years, and when he has nothing to do, he teaches Shi Ke to memorize poems, but there are no more difficult ones, such as "Silent Night Thoughts", "Song of the Goose", "One Goes to Two or Three Miles", "Spring Dawn" and so on, and nearly ten favorite articles have all been taught to Shi Ke.
Shi Ke broke away from Yan Siqin's embrace, put his little hand on his back, and opened his mouth proudly. For a while, in the small courtyard, the crisp endorsement of the little girl was like a wind chime jingling in the rain.
Yan Siqin nodded frequently, his happy mouth couldn't close, and he kept muttering: "It's good, it's so good." ”
