Chapter 112: It's broken, brothers, why did you recommend it?
"Head... Hair? The little boy's face turned pale and he remembered what he had just seen under the water.
"yes, I don't think it's like a thread, it's just hair, right?" The little fat man picked up the hair-like object with a small stick: "Brother Liao, Zengzi, look at what this is?" ”
"Hair." "It should be."
The other two also affirmed it after looking at it carefully, which made the little boy's face even more ugly.
"Okay, okay, don't say it, it may be that I accidentally ate it into my mouth at night."
The three of them looked at the little boy who wanted to cry without tears, and then at the large clump of hair on the ground, not knowing what to say.
In the end, the tall man came out to play the round: "Then let's do this today, Xiaopeng didn't catch a fish, let's share a little bit of him, by the way, this matter can't be known to the adults, otherwise we won't let us come out alone next time, remember, right?" ”
"No problem." Except for the little boy, the other two nodded.
"Xiaopeng, is there a problem?" The three of them fixed their eyes on the little boy.
The little boy was stunned and shook his head: "No problem, I know." ”
"That's it, Xiao Peng must be frightened by drowning, I'll send you back." The tall man looked at the little boy who was trembling slightly, and his expression was a little worried.
The little fat man threw away the stick in his hand: "It's okay, anyway, Brother Liao, you are close to Xiaopeng's family, which is very convenient." ”
"Then we'll go first."
The two of them left first with the keg.
The tall man walked back to the place where he had fished, picked up his bucket, and came over to pick up the little boy.
"Can you move?"
"Yes, you can." The little boy was also relieved at this time and was able to act.
The two of them walked towards their home in the darkness of the night, which was already almost dark.
Children are children after all, and although they were scared at the time, because of their ignorance, they were not very afraid of phenomena that they could not understand, which may be the so-called fearlessness of the ignorant.
So soon, the little boy was freed from his previous fears, and it seemed to him that although this matter was strange, his mother would definitely be able to give him the answer, because his mother knew even more than his father, and knew many things that the people of the village did not know at all.
For example, the story of Chang'e, what is the praise of the father, and there are many, many things outside the mountain, so my mother must also know about this matter.
So the little boy was no longer afraid.
"You look much better." The tall man watched the little boy's expression gradually brighten, and a smile appeared on his face.
"yes, I'm still a little scared."
"Afraid of what?"
The little boy smiled embarrassedly: "My mother told me to come home early, but now that it's dark, I'm afraid she'll beat me." ”
The tall man was stunned and laughed along, but his smile was somewhat forced, but neither of them noticed it.
"To be honest, I envy you." The tall man said with a sigh.
"Envy me? Why envy me? ”
"How so?" The tall man scratched his head: "I envy you that you still have a mother who can scold you, my father and I are the only two people in my family, and he usually doesn't care much about me." ”
The little boy's eyes were a little puzzled: "It's not good to care about you, you can play around, I've always wanted to be like you." ”
The tall man laughed dryly twice and stopped talking.
The two are very familiar with the village, and it is no exaggeration to say that even if they have their eyes closed, they can feel where their home is.
Although it was only past eight o'clock, almost no one still had the lights on, and there were also very dim kerosene lamps, and the little boy had heard his mother say that there were electric lights in the city, and if the lights were turned on, they could be as bright as daytime.
But not to mention electric lights, even kerosene lamps have to be saved at home.
"Little friend."
The tall man spoke suddenly.
"What's wrong?" The little boy looked at the tall man curiously, but because it was dark, the little boy could not see his expression.
"Do you remember that woman when we were kids?"
"Which woman?"
"That's the woman who the adults said they were going to escape from the village."
The little boy remembered.
A few years ago, when the little boy was very young, the children in the village liked to play around the adults who were smoking cigarettes and listen to them say things they didn't really understand.
At that time, the adults mentioned that the women of the family wanted to run away.
So some people shouted to catch her back and break her legs, and then kept her in the firewood room, tied up and beaten.
The children didn't understand what that meant.
The little boy was one of them, and she didn't understand it either.
But looking at the way the adults are smiling, it's probably something funny, right?
So for the children who surrounded the adults, he also waved his small fists, which were not powerful, and shouted with the adults while laughing: "Kill her, kill her." ”
In the eyes of the children, the woman was like a monster, and it was the right thing to do to catch her.
But what happened to the woman in the end, whether she was chased back, after all, no one asked, or rather, did not let the children know, and as time passed, the children gradually forgot about it.
Whether she died, or whether she ran away, became a mystery in the end.
The little boy remembered the incident at the reminder of the tall man, but he didn't understand why the tall man suddenly brought it up.
"Well, I remembered, what's wrong, do you know the ending?"
"I guessed, but I'm not sure if it was."
"What's going on?"
"I guess that woman may be the fat man's mother."
The little boy froze, he thought about it carefully, the fat man's mother was not dead, but she never came out to show up, and she was always at home, and it seemed that she was locked up with the adults at that time, breaking her leg or something.
But just based on this bit of information, naturally you shouldn't make conclusions so casually, what if it's just a coincidence?
"No, if that's the case, Chubby should tell us, right?"
The little boy said with a forced smile.
"yes, maybe I'm thinking too much." The tall man nodded, but he sighed in his heart, in fact, he still thought that the woman was the fat man's mother, because he knew in his heart that people with low self-esteem would never expose the trauma in their hearts to others, even if the other party was a parent.
To say why he knows so well, because he is such a person.
"Well, then, I'll send you here." The tall man waved his hand and went home with the bucket.
And the little boy sighed, ready to go home and be taught a lesson by his mother.
But when he got to the door, he stopped, because he noticed that there was something different in the house.
