Huzi looked at the snow scene with joy and got carried away. Xiaotian quipped: "Brother Gongzi in the city, will the wheat seedlings on the side of the road be regarded as leeks?" ”

The two teenagers talked and laughed all the way, and the tricycle soon arrived at the village office. Several people jumped off the tricycle, stomped their feet, and put their hands to their mouths and kept puffing. "It's so cold, my feet are frozen." Huzi rubbed his hands together and said.

"It won't be cold when you walk." Xiaotian put on his backpack and walked forward.

"Do you still want to walk? How far away? Huzi asked in surprise, he thought that when the tricycle stopped, Xiaotian's home would be there, but he didn't expect to have to walk.

"There are more than three kilometers left, which is only half an hour. Come on. Xiao Tian urged.

Wu Sifu hurried home, he wanted to go back and burn the brazier first, so that the two children could be warm.

Huzi and Xiaotian play all the way, completely ignoring the mud on the clean sneakers on their feet. When Huzi saw the bamboo bent by the snow on the side of the road, he jumped up and pulled it, and the snow on the bamboo branches fell down and poured into his neck. The two teenagers couldn't help but laugh, and the crisp laughter echoed in the valley.

The scenery of the northern country, thousands of miles of ice, thousands of miles of snow drifting.

Looking inside and outside the Great Wall, only reckless;

Up and down the river, suddenly lost and surging.

Mountain dance silver snake, the original Chi wax elephant, want to be higher than the heavenly public test.

It must be a sunny day, and look at the red dress, which is extraordinarily enchanting.

……

Huzi was full of joy, poetic, and recited passionately.

"Huzi, you recited "Qinyuan Spring. Snow? Wu Sifu turned around and asked.

"Yes, uncle." Huzi replied briskly. He turned his head and said to Xiaotian, "Your father knows this poem?" ”

"My dad is a high school student after the resumption of the college entrance examination, and he is highly educated. He can also play the bamboo flute. Xiaotian said briskly.

After they finished descending a steep slope, the large courtyard of Uncle Wu's house appeared in front of them. I saw a snow-white patch on Daiwa, and curling smoke rising on the roof. Looking from afar, the reckless bamboo forest and the deep house courtyard are like an ink painting.

Seeing this beautiful scenery, Huzi put his hands to his mouth and shouted loudly: "Hey-", and the quiet mountain forest suddenly heard Huzi's loud shout.

Zhou Jueming, who was pulling garlic seedlings in the vegetable field at the turn in front, saw that Xiaotian was back, and hurriedly greeted: "Xiaotian, are you back?" ”

"I'm back, Uncle Zhou. New Year's Day holiday. Xiao Tian replied with a smile, "Is Lan Lan back?" ”

"Not yet. Probably behind you. Zhou Jueming said.

"Tell Lan Lan to come over and play in the afternoon." Howling Sky invited.

"I told her when she came back. Come and play, too. Zhou Jueming said politely.

The two teenagers played all the way, and soon arrived at the river below Xiaotian's house. Xiaotian pointed to the house halfway up the mountain and said to Huzi: "My home is on it, let's climb up and get there." ”

"Huh? Still having to climb such a steep slope? Huzi looked at Xiaotian in surprise and asked.

Xiaotian got a bamboo stick for Huzi: "Hold on, the road is slippery." ”

climbed all the way and finally returned to Xiaotian's house. Wu Sifu hurriedly used a brazier to make a fire. Huzi saw a large pile of meat piled up on the wooden planks of the hall house, and asked in surprise, "Uncle Wu, why is there so much meat?" Local tyrants! ”

After Huzi finished speaking, he suddenly realized that he had said the wrong thing, and hurriedly stopped the topic.

Wu Sifu said lightly: "I am still a local tyrant, I am worried to death." ”

"What are you worried about? Uncle Wu. Huzi asked again.

"I can't sell it!" Wu Sifu replied.

"Can't sell? How can it not be sold? Now is the time to bake bacon, get it to the town and sell it! Huzi said again.

"We're here to catch up with 369, and we have to wait for three days to catch up." Wu Sifu said.

"So, what to do? What to do? Huzi scratched his head and muttered to himself.

Just when everyone was worried about the pork not being sold, Huzi's phone rang. Huzi took out his mobile phone and saw that it was his father Wu Ming calling.

Huzi picked up the phone, and his father's familiar voice sounded: "Huzi, have you arrived?" Is it fun? ”

"We just arrived. Dad, the snow here is so beautiful, and the thick snow on the bamboo branches all over the mountains is spectacular. Huzi said excitedly.

"Have fun, stay safe. It's okay, I'll hang up first. Wu Ming admonished.

When Huzi heard that his father was going to hang up the phone, he hurriedly said, "Dad, don't hang up the phone, I'll tell you something." Uncle Wu's family killed two pigs yesterday, and now the meat pile can't be sold at home, so you can think of a way to sell Uncle Wu's meat. ”

"Get it to the market and sell it, isn't it time to smoke bacon, why can't it be sold?" Wu Ming's surprised voice came from the other side of the phone.

"They won't be there until the 3rd, and they have to wait for 3 days. You can figure out what to do. Huzi begged Wu Mingyang.

Xiao Tian saw that Huzi was helping to find a way, so he hurriedly attached to Huzi's ear and whispered: "Our pigs are all fed cooked feed, and the meat quality is good. ”

After listening to Xiaotian, Huzi said to Wu Ming again: "Dad, Uncle Wu's pigs are all cooked

The meat is of good quality, and it does not explode when fried; The taste is delicate, the meat is pure, and it is very delicious, which is rare in such meat markets. If you look for your friends, they will definitely smoke bacon, and they will buy as much as they want. Besides, your restaurant uses pork every day. ”

"My restaurant mainly sells chicken, what do you want pork for? How many catties to sell? Wu Ming was so entangled by the tiger that he couldn't help it, so he asked helplessly.

When Huzi heard his father ask about the quantity, he was overjoyed, and hurriedly turned his head and asked Wu Sifu: "Uncle, how many catties of pork do you want to sell?" ”

"More than 200 pounds." Wu Sifu estimated that in addition to the part that had been given to Boss Zhang today and the part he wanted to keep, it would probably be sold for 200 catties.

"Dad, there are more than 200 pounds." Huzi told Wu Ming.

"Okay, I'll ask my friend and I'll get back to you later." Wu Ming said.

"Dad, you contact immediately, don't forget it." Huzi anxiously told Wu Mingdao.

Wu Sifu saw that Huzi was so enthusiastic about helping him contact the sales of pork, and he was very upset. Thinking that the first time Huzi came to his house, he encountered his own troubles, would Xiaotian feel very embarrassed and faceless?

Alas, I originally planned to kill pigs at home, but I could make more money, and I could also earn the chowder in the pork belly, but I didn't expect that stealing chickens would not make rice. I knew that I would hand over the pig to the butcher to kill, and if I couldn't sell it, I didn't have to worry about it, so I just asked for it. In the future, we must not play this kind of old peasant calculus.

After a while, Wu Sifu burned the brazier vigorously and called the two children loudly to roast the fire; He took out the woolen slippers that Pingping had knitted before and changed them for them. The two children changed their shoes, and Wu Sifu took their shoes to the laundry sink in the dam to wash the mud and dry them under the eaves.

Huzi saw that Xiaotian's father had cleaned up the house neatly and brightly, and whispered to Xiaotian: "I didn't expect your home to be so clean and tidy. ”

"My dad was a soldier and loves cleanliness more than my mom." Xiao Tian said happily.

When Hu heard Xiaotian mention his mother, he casually asked, "Haven't you heard from your mother yet?" ”

"Nope." At the mention of his mother, Xiaotian's mood was instantly depressed.

Wu Sifu saw that the time was close to noon, so he began to cook lunch in the stove house. There is a little guest here today, so I have to entertain him well. Fortunately, I killed the pig yesterday, and the stewed pork ribs are still there, and then fried shredded meat and pork liver are almost enough.

Xiaotian came to the stove pond to help Wu Sifu light the fire, and casually comforted his father: "Dad, Huzi's father has opened a farmhouse, and he knows many people and has a wide range of doors, he will help us sell these pork, don't worry." ”

"Let Huzi see a smile, right?" Wu Sifu asked.

"How so? Huzi also said that we are local tyrants. Xiaotian replied briskly.

While the father and son were chatting, Wu Sifu's phone rang. Wu Sifu took out his mobile phone and saw that it was Pingping's phone, and his heart was excited, but his face was not shocked. He glanced at Xiao Tian and said calmly, "Your mother's phone." ”

"You got in touch with Mom?" Xiao Tian felt a burst of joy in his heart, it turned out that his father and mother were in contact. So, mom won't leave this home? Dad did a good job of secrecy, but he didn't even reveal it to himself.

"Why did it take so long to answer the phone?" Pingping asked on the other end of the phone.

"I'm cooking. Xiaotian is back. Wu Sifu explained.

"Howling is back? You ask him to answer the phone. Pingping said excitedly.

Wu Sifu glanced at Xiao Tian and was about to ask Xiao Tian if he would like to answer the phone, but Huzi ran in and said briskly: "Xiao Tian, are you cooking?" I'm here to help, too. ”

"Who's talking?" Pingping asked again on the phone.

"Xiaotian's classmate Huzi. On New Year's Day, he came to us to see the snow. Wu Sifu explained.

"Xiaotian, whose phone is it? Did your mom call back? Huzi asked Xiaotian quietly. Xiaotian nodded.

"Your mom called back? I just said that there was no news about your mother, but now that I have it, hurry up and say a few words to your mother. Tell your mom to come home for the New Year. "Huzi stabbed Xiaotian.

Xiaotian also wanted to talk to his mother, but when he thought that she had ignored her family for the past two years, he felt uncomfortable with pimples. Thinking of what Huzi said, he had to take the mobile phone handed over by Wu Sifu and walk to the dam outside the house to answer the phone.

"Hey—" Xiaotian said hello to Pinky in an awkward manner.

"Xiaotian, is it cold at home? Wear more clothes and don't catch a cold. Zhang Pingping heard Xiao Tian's voice on the other end of the phone, and she was excited, and couldn't help but tell with concern.

"It's snowing, it must be cold! I'm so old that I know how to get dressed. Wu Xiaotian said lightly.

Is this still his own son? Why is the tone so cold? The sourness in Zhang Pingping's heart suddenly surged up. I thought, if your father hadn't beaten me and told me to get out, where would I have left you to fight in Guangdong

Work; Your dad still wants to save face, thinks he hit me right, and refuses to apologize to me.

I also kept my face and had a good tone, so I didn't call back. I work overtime here, and I want to earn more money so that I can use it for you to get into college. Otherwise, with the current situation of our family, where can we still afford to go to college?

Zhang Pingping was so sad that tears rolled in her eyes, and the knot in her son's heart was afraid that it would be difficult to untie. I heard Xiaotian ask again: "Mom, are you going back for the New Year?" ”
