"This is the purple sand cup that my son Junjie bought for his uncle, come to the old village chief!" Ma Minzhi handed a box of gifts to the old horse.

"Oops!" The old horse flashed sideways, a little embarrassed.

The people were so anxious that they snorted, their eyes were closed tightly, and then they stared at the old horse, and turned to Xingbang after glaring: "Xingbang will collect it for you!" ”

"Hey, thank you, uncle!" Xingbang stood up and took the gift, bowed his waist to thank him, and then placed the gift on the empty chair behind Zhiyuan.

"Come and see me - it's an electric shaver. When I went back to Yingying's house to go to the toilet, I washed my hands and saw the shaving stuff - silver box, old auspicious brand, rusty tin box edge...... That's all the same era as the Phoenix brand sewing machine and the permanent brand bicycle! I muttered to myself, how many decades have you been using this old horse shave! Zhong Neng laughed and handed the electric shaver to Gui Ying.

"My razor is sturdy! It's not easy to buy blades now, I came to Shenzhen with five blades, thinking that it would be enough! The old horse explained left and right.

"The auspicious brand has long since closed down - it's been more than ten years since it was closed!" After the Xingxia finished the end of the note, he slapped his hands and spread out his palms, and everyone laughed at the old horse.

"I've used that razor for half my life, just like my hookah—an antique!"

"We're all old antiques, so we're going to be useless!" The people laughed to themselves coolly.

"I've got something for the village chief—you can't guess!" The index finger of Xingxia's right hand is pointing towards the tip of his finger, and one finger is scratching in front of everyone, and his face is mysterious.

After rowing, Ma Xingxia took out something wrapped in red cloth from his bag, held it in front of everyone with both hands, and said, "Come!" Guess it all! ”

Tsai Tsai was amused by the old man's antics and giggled alone. The crowd stretched out their necks to look at the red bumps.

"What, uncle? God mysterious! Gui Ying stretched her body and smiled.

"I guess you can't guess! Come, look—" The Ranger unveiled the red cloth in his right hand and held a brand-new trophy the size of a cucumber in his left hand.

After finishing him, he gently handed the trophy to Min, who nodded and grinned; Then the people handed over their hands to the old horse, and the old horse was snatched by Zhong Laohan before he finished reading. Zhong Neng saw that his hand was turning over and over, and his mouth shouted again and again: "Mo Mada! Mo Ma Da ......"

The four old men fell silent, and the trophy passed to Gui Ying. Gui Ying first squinted and read carefully, and then laughed: "What's the matter-'Ma Jianguo, a special contributor to Majiatun', hahaha...... Oops, oops! A few of you are really good at touting, and you even made a special trip to get a trophy! ”

"I pondered all night last night, I really don't know what to send, I have this answer in my heart, I went out at seven o'clock in the morning to find a stationery store, a printing shop, and it took two hours to finish it!" Xingxia counted the process, and he couldn't hide a trace of showing off on his face.

"Yingying, don't laugh! You are old and don't live in the village, you may not know how much your contribution to our village is! Look at the surrounding villages, which one has been more nourishing than the people in our village in the past ten years? You can't find a third one in our whole town! Beiqiao Village and Zhangjiayuan - those two are next to the town, developed early and are big villages, it is inevitable that people will be rich and famous, but our Majiatun is different, when you were the village head, you were poor! The horseman ran out of strength and coughed repeatedly.

"Farewell, farewell, it's over!" The old horse's eyes were filled with helplessness about time.

"Anyway, our Zhongjiawan is not good, it is far worse than your Majiatun! The village chief is not as good as one, all bastards, they just want to swallow the public and eat the villagers! How can the village develop in this way? There is no need to develop now, there is no one in the village for a long time! Chung Neng complained.

Xingxia took over the conversation: "Xingbang may not know much about their generation!" Back then, you led the people of our village to build canals and expand the village, recruit investment for schools, grow vegetables and sell fruits, and later built roads for the village and gave subsidies to poor households to compete for places...... As far as you are concerned, there are not many people in the village who have this state - this is not bragging! The people behind don't know, which of us old men doesn't know? ”

"No! Over the years, there have been bumps, fights, and troubles in every family, aren't they all looking for you! Why? It's not because the old village chief is reliable, fair, and people believe in him! "The people weakly added.

"Why did I make this trophy?" Xingxia pointed to the trophy, glanced at everyone and continued: "There must be a reason for the wealth and backwardness of a village, not out of thin air. Majiatun has to remember the old village chief, just like our country remembers the older generation of contributors - you commend the outstanding contributors of the older generation, so that you can give a model to the younger generations and point out the direction, right? It's a pity that I'm not a leader, but if I don't, I guess there will be no one in the future! The Wei Cheng left as soon as he walked some time ago, and it touched me a lot. To tell the truth, our old men and wives are almost gone, and I look back and think about my life...... I haven't done anything big, and people have done what I want to do but can't, so I have to remember, thank and respect others! The old village chief - my brother Jianguo - is like this! Xingxia gave the old horse a strong thumbs up.

After a short silence, Lao Ma said to the people: "The food is ready, let's eat the food!" At the same time, he greeted Zhong Neng and Xingxia.

"Wait, Shou Tao hasn't been on yet!" Gui Ying put down the trophy to stop everyone.

"Na...... I'll take out my gifts! Seeing that everyone was speechless, Zhiyuan finished smiling, strode to a pile of bags on the side, took out a scroll of calligraphy and paintings, took the rope before and after taking it to the person, unfolded it, and said: "I have practiced several words, and a few paintings have been prepared, how about a few elders?" ”

Everyone leaned over to take a look, only to see a scroll hanging painting nearly two meters long and half a meter wide, with a beige bottom, snow-white edges, a white section on the thick rice paper, and a big cursive Shou character written in the middle. The words are written like dragons and snakes, like pine trees and mountains, from a distance like auspicious clouds soaring into the sky, and close to the old man meditating. There are a few strokes on the lower right side of the word Shou that draws a minimalist and communicative longevity crane, the crane has a red top and a black neck, white feathers and gray feet, and the crane is singing for a long time and has an elegant posture. In the upper right corner of the calligraphy and painting is written a slip of letters - I wish my father-in-law a long time in pine cranes, and in the lower left corner there is also a slip of words: son-in-law Zhiyuan respects.

Everyone was stunned at first, then shocked, and then praised endlessly.

"Oh, old village chief, your son-in-law is a talented man!" The people laughed and praised.

"What a great drawing! Well written, too! Xingxia couldn't help but clap his hands.

"I didn't expect Zhiyuan to have this craft!" Zhong Neng, who has known Zhiyuan for many years, was also very surprised.

Everyone praised me one by one, and Gui Yingyang was proud, and his chin was almost upturned. Xingbang took the painting over and showed it to Uncle Xingxia. Xingxia held the painting and looked at it again and again, and then reluctantly handed it to the people. Ma Min squinted left and right from a distance, and passed it to the old horse after a long time. The old horse smiled and nodded, and gave it to Zhong Neng very expressively. Ma Guiying, who laughed until the cell, finally collected the calligraphy scroll with great ambition, and boasted: "Gaiming buy a box and put it away, it's not good to put it in this way!" ”

"I didn't expect Gui Ying's son-in-law to have this hand, and he hid it deeply! Uncle didn't know all these years, you must know that I have already asked you for calligraphy and painting! Zhong Neng regretted and was pleasantly surprised.

"Let your son-in-law write me one, and maybe I can live for two more years!" The people laughed and flattered the old horse.

"Draw me one too! I want that crane, draw it bigger, and my uncle's work will be successful! Be big! Be magnificent! Xingxia bypassed Xingbang and pointed at Zhiyuan, stretched out his hand and gestured.

"Draw one for each of you!" Zhiyuan nodded implicitly.

"Okay, the gift has been received, the calligraphy and painting have also been rewarded, how about taking some time for my baby to perform for the grandfathers before eating?" Gui Ying arranged the next paragraph, and finished rushing Yangyang: "Come on, come on, come on, the part that your mother taught you recently, perform it for your grandfathers!" ”

"Huh?" Looking at more than a dozen plates of fragrant vegetables and meat, I was hungry and chatted in a panic and forgot to clean it.

"'First of all, I wish Grandpa a good fortune like the East China Sea-'Remember?' Gui Ying whispered in Yangyang's ear.

Yang Yang looked at the meat slices in front of him and nodded.

"Stand in a chair and be louder! After carrying it, my mother will send you a red envelope, let's start! Gui Ying shouted excitedly.

Zhiyuan picked up his daughter, stood on the chair, stared at a large plate of fish in the middle of the table, and recited as follows: "First of all, I wish grandpa a blessing such as the East China Sea, the sun and the moon are prosperous, the pine crane is long, the spring and autumn are not old, the ancient is rare, and the joy is long!" Second, I wish the other grandfathers present a smile, eternal enjoyment, happiness and health! Finally, I wish my parents, uncles and aunts, brothers and sisters good health, good work and good studies, and eat well, but not fat! After reciting, according to what my mother taught, people bowed mechanically again and again, and the adults didn't stop her.

As soon as the girl finished reciting, the four grandfathers clapped their hands together, and the table was filled with a thick red light and joy.

"No uncles and aunts - no need to carry that!" Gui Ying covered her mouth and snickered.

"'It's delicious, but it's not fat', hum!" The old horse repeated the last sentence of the rippling back, and his face showed a saint-like peaceful countenance.

"Recite it again! This grandpa hasn't heard enough! Xingxia laughed and pointed at himself rushing at others.

"Recite it again! Recite it again! The other three grandfathers made the same request.

"Okay, recite it again, 'First of all, I wish Grandpa a good fortune like the East China Sea-'Begin!" Gui Yinger started his head.

"First of all, I wish my grandfather blessings such as the East China Sea, the sun and the moon are prosperous, the pine crane is long, the spring and autumn are not old, the ancient is rare, and the joy is long! Second, I wish the other grandfathers present a smile, eternal enjoyment, happiness and health! Finally, I wish my parents, uncles and aunts, brothers and sisters good health, good work and good studies, and eat well, but not fat! ”

The old men looked up at the female doll and laughed happily, all of them smiling like Maitreya Buddha, pitching and clapping.

"Carry that one again for the grandpa...... Earthy children's poems! "The old horse remotely hinted at Yangyang.

"Which one?" Yang Yang tilted his head and asked his grandfather.

"Uh...... 'Mud Swallow' one, 'Mud Swallow' begins—" The old horse said.

The man stood on the chair, his head swinging left and right, and there were words in his mouth: "Grab the mud swallow mouth, sharpen the iron needle, scrape the gold Buddha face and search carefully, look for the cherry blossoms and quails in the middle of nowhere, and split the fine meat on the legs of the heron." The mosquito has fat in the abdomen, and the old man starts with it. ”

As soon as Yangyang finished reciting, a table of people clapped their hands and laughed and praised it.

"Isn't this what Mr. Zhou asked me to carry before?" The people pointed to the baby and hesitated and asked for verification.

"Yes, that's exactly what I taught! We don't know Mandarin, so if my husband teaches me, I'll teach her! The old horse smiled triumphantly.

"I'm sorry to let me go!" There was a waiter in the private room, and the waiter was carrying a large plate and nowhere to serve it. Gui Ying held Yangyang in her arms, and the waiter put the tray on the table and placed the white and red birthday peach in the center of the round table.

I saw that on the large cake with a diameter of about half a meter, there were nine pink longevity peaches on one side, and various fresh fruits on one side, and the words "Pan Peach Congratulations Birthday" were written in the middle of the longevity peach and the fruit. After the waiter set it up, he left the table, Gui Ying stretched out his hand and moved, aiming the four words "Pan Tao Birthday Celebration" at today's old birthday star.

"Such a big longevity peach!" Zhong Neng was overjoyed, with a look of envy, and the scholars on the side couldn't help but clapped quietly.

"I ordered it in advance, stored it in their refrigerator, and I will serve it when the food is ready." Gui Ying explained.

At this time, a young male *** member came, holding a plate of Chong Guiying: "May I ask who this longevity noodle is for?" ”

"Four old men over there!" Gui Ying pointed out, and the waiter supervised the four bowls of shou noodles one by one.

"Big, then let's eat, or your face will be cold!" Gui Ying asked the old horse.

"Eat, eat, eat!" The old horse stretched out his hand and asked the other three to eat first.

"What about Shou Tao?" Zhiyuan stared at Gui Ying.

"Shou Tao? The dolls are waiting! Gui Ying asked the birthday star again, and then smiled at the drooling Xuecheng and the rippling finger eating.

"Get close to your brother and let your brother cut it." The old horse raised his eyes and pointed, and then asked the people in the worst health to eat hot longevity noodles with chopsticks.

Xingbang began to divide the longevity peaches, put the longevity peaches on the plate one by one, and then handed them to Uncle Min, Uncle Xingxia, Uncle Zhong Neng and his father, and Gui Ying at this head began to cut cakes for the three children, and first aid the three gluttonous cats who drooled. Zhiyuan left his seat to pour wine for the skirt tea, and the boy sensibly picked up vegetables and juice for Xuecheng's younger brother.

Cakes, longevity noodles, delicacies, wine, tea, juice sweet, the big round table is crowded with bowls, chopsticks, cups and plates, rows of bottles, jars and bags under the east wall of the room, the old ten people taste delicious, spit out the country sound, in the ding ding dong chopsticks and bowls percussion music and hehehaha laughter, enjoy the warm and joyful birthday banquet.

At two o'clock in the afternoon, Lao Ma saw that the three township parties around him had put down their chopsticks, and the girl in the distance chewed rice, Xuecheng bowed her head and took a nap, Tsai Zizi swiped her mobile phone with both hands, Xingbang smoked, Zhiyuan fed rice, and Gui Ying stretched out her chopsticks to pick up meat slices on the table. Seeing this, the old man suddenly slapped the table, pointed at Yangyang and shouted: "Come, let my baby recite two more poems." ”

"Hmm!" Yangyang trembled in shock, and the rice in his mouth almost fell out.

"Yangyang, carry that 'I do everything village' to the grandfathers, come, start!"

Yang Yang hurriedly swallowed his meal, and began to look up and recite like a program executing code: "I am so ugly in everything." Ugly is ugly, the village is the village, and if you are like-minded, you are really ugly for him, and you will win the love of my village. Ugly relatives like this, village spouses, except for the cherry blossoms"

"Hahaha......" The three old men who had been trained by Mr. Majiatun's private school to memorize this poem more than 60 years ago slapped the table and slapped their legs like an electric shock, and pitched up and laughed.

"How are you teaching the baby this? And so much more? The people held the old horse's arm and asked curiously.

"I go to school to teach, teach after school, and rely on this to coax her to sleep at night, and she learns quickly, one by one, and the melons are ripe!" The old horse slapped his hands and looked at him proudly.

"It's better to be a girl, my two sons are very restless, you can't control it! You can't roar or scold, you see how well-behaved this girl doll is! Xingxia looked at Yang Yang and sighed with envy and sigh.

"I guess she memorized it as a nursery rhyme, I don't understand a word!" Lao Ma pointed to Yangyang and was lost, and felt that the good poetry and witty words were not understood, which was a pity.

"It's not easy to remember and memorize so much!" Xingbang defended his niece, and Zhongru said yes.

"Yes. The key is that the baby has a good brain, I read a sentence in the morning when I go to school, she reads a sentence after school in the afternoon, and I get up in the evening and people go down by themselves - look at this memory! Come to Bao'er, recite a 'goose fall' to the grandfathers, and start-" The old horse gave instructions again.

""The Goose Falls", there is no delusion in idleness, and there are many situations in the quiet. The situation of the praying mantis catches the cicada, and the world is like a snake swallowing an elephant. ”

"This one is good! This one is good! He Zhiyuan, who understood this dialect poem, took the lead in applauding, and everyone was smiling, and even the eyes of the two brothers were full of praise that people could understand.

At this moment, He Yiyang is as arrogant as a goose.

"'Far City is densely populated', back-" The old horse turned his head tentatively again, I don't know if the baby remembered it.

"The far city is densely populated, and the near village is full of water and mountains. Edification into the wilderness, shoveling away the official appearance, the drill will be pastoral singing. The old tile basin gets drunk a few times, and does not crash into the Luo Di net. ”

Yang Yang memorized the last two sentences, and Ma Min couldn't help blurting out: "The old tile basin gets drunk a few times, and doesn't crash into the Luodi net." ”

"Do you remember that?" The old horse asked the people in surprise.

"Remember, I remember what the baby just remembered!"

"Recite one more, you two will definitely be this one!" The old horse finished rushing to the second horse, and turned his head to command Yangyang: "Bao'er, carry the 'lamp also shines on the stars and the moon', start-"

The eyes of the people were wide, and they opened their mouths: "The lights also shine, the stars shine, the moon shines, the east laughs, the west laughs, the south laughs......"

Yangyang was carrying it, and the people also joined in to close the back, so the old man looked at it and looked at the old man and said: "The Jun music, Xiao Shao music, Yun and Le, together with this big stone tune, stone tune, yellow bell tune ......"

In the last sentence, Ma Xingxia tapped the table and recited it in a pure Shaanxi dialect: "Silver flowers are floating everywhere, fire trees are shining, and the joy is that the monarch has the way, the minister has the way, and the country has the way." ”

After the old three finished reciting, they clapped their hands and laughed together.

"It's back together, like a chorus! Why didn't you see you teaching the three of us before? Gui Ying asked.

"The three of you are as stupid as cows in reading, you don't kick a single kick, how can someone be clever - as soon as you learn, you can recite it when you open your mouth!" Old Ma Wan stared at Yangyang, his eyes releasing hope.

"'Ask who was the hero' - do you two remember?" The people asked the left and right horses.

"I don't remember! Ask who has always been a hero...... "The old horse was about to carry it, and the people joined in, and the two of them went back and said: "A farmer, a fisherman." Obscure Nanyang, living in the East China Sea, based on success. The name of the eight arrays is Wolong, and the calligraphy of "Liutao" is flying bear. The hegemony is empty, and the resentment is endless. Shu road cold clouds, Weishui autumn wind. ”

"I didn't understand this poem until I was in my fifties, and it was so well written! Sir, the original Weishui is our Wei River. "The people look for their childhood memories from this song.

"I only remembered the first two sentences of this song, but just now the 'I am as ugly as the village in everything', I memorized it neatly back then, and Mr. praised me! Do you remember our Mr. Zhou Ren? People are talented! Xingxia asked Erma.

"Remember! Mr. was almost seventy years old when he came to our Majiatun, and that person was from a good background, and he didn't catch up with the good era! The old horse recalled.

"Isn't it? When I was taught, I was almost eighty years old, and my husband's ears were not good, so let me memorize poems and poems, learn words and words! We doll teasing him, and when he finished reading a sentence, we just opened our mouths and didn't say anything - and he couldn't listen! Minwan opened his mouth to laugh like a child, but laughed dumbly.

"Mr. Zhou in your village, I have also heard of it. Listen to him teach in a nearby village all his life, and finally die in the town, as if he died in his student's house, right? Zhong Neng recalled Mr. Zhou who circulated in the square circle half a century ago.

Lao Ma took over the conversation: "Yes! The family is rich, and the property was lost by his younger brother. I heard that my mother, Mr. Zhou, was not happy to come to Majiatun at first, but we invited one of them, and that person was Mr. Zhou's cousin-in-law. Mr. came to Majiatun and stayed for more than ten years! In the end, he was too old to walk, and he was still teaching the dolls to read, and he didn't charge money, and he taught it for free in the next few years, and the village was grateful to him for taking care of his food and seeing a doctor to make some money. I've been too old to walk for a few years, my butt never leaves my chair, and the poems on the export are better because I don't have the teeth to walk - no, that's it, I'm still teaching and educating people! After the old horse ended, those who understood nodded again and again, and those who didn't understand opened their eyes wide.

After a period of embarrassment, Lao Ma instructed Zai Zai to fetch the erhu and began to sing with a few people. Yangyang slipped off the chair and squeezed between Xuecheng's brother and his brother to listen to them, Gui Ying poured juice for the children, Zhiyuan added wine to the old men, Xingxia and Zhong Neng clinked glasses, and Xingbang added warm water to the old Hanmin.

After adjusting the strings, the old horse crunched and crunched a few times, coughed a few times, and then asked everyone with a smile: "Who sings first?" ”

Min, Xingxia and Zhong Neng, who were swept by Lao Ma's eyes, were all a little shy, after all, they hadn't sung for decades.

"Let Yingying come first!" Xingxia pointed at Gui Ying.

Gui Ying was obedient to this, as if she had been struck by thunder, and was so frightened: "Eh, how can I sing!" I never studied! ”

"'My daddy is greedy for money' - you can't sing? Which doll wouldn't have sung this back then! Zhong Neng squinted his eyes and pretended to be unhappy.

"I'll do this, but I've never sung it! I was purely brainwashed and memorized, but I never sang it! Gui Ying explained.

"Then sing! Come to two sentences, give you a big birthday, and you sing two sentences when it is lively! There is no self-music class in Shenzhen, let's get together a self-music class to give you a big birthday! "The chivalrous roared.

"Say a few words! Let's say a few words! Come on with two sentences...... "It's like a repeater, Xingbang, Zhiyuan and the children also come to coax."

"Good, good, sing!" Gui Ying closed her eyes and gritted her teeth, and let go.

"Good! Here we go! The old horse pulled up the erhu, and soon after he only heard him prompt: "Go-"

"My father was greedy for money and sold me, and I didn't want to escape as a slave. Takahashi went to pay my aunt a visit and asked her to make arrangements with me. Who would have thought that he would lose his way on the way and happen to meet the guest officer who took the road, and suddenly-"Gui Ying" suddenly "came here, and forgot the word."

Zhong Neng listened and hurried to the rescue: "Suddenly, there was a shout from behind, it was the neighborhood and the township party who were chasing after him, and he and I fornicated with my adulterer and killed my father, stole money and escaped, this is really a big disaster." ”

After singing this paragraph, everyone applauded lightly and was slightly disappointed. Gui Ying's voice has no better use than yelling and drinking. In those years, the classic passages sung by the village elders were sung by her grinning, whether she had a tone or not, turning a corner and potholes, raising a tune, and the ghost crying wolf howl was so ugly that even Yangyang, who couldn't understand it, frowned and protested.

"Don't let her sing, she can't!" The old horse, who was not a professional singer, pointed at Gui Ying with his chin after the professional judgment of both ears, closed his eyes and shook his head.

"I can't sing, you have to force me, I think I sing ugly and ......" Gui Ying was unhappy.

"I'll do it! Sing "Eight Immortals on Longevity", the bangs! Give the old village chief the right time. "After the hero, rub your hands and clear your throat.
