Chapter 46: The Eighth Story

Originally, calling people by nicknames is disrespectful to people, and giving people nicknames is a bit lacking in morality. But our village is a world full of nicknames and nicknames. The big name can be unknown, but the nickname has its own characteristics, and the nickname is even more resounding, don't say it, some nicknames are really like that. The one who likes to give people nicknames the most is our village secretary - Sima Yi, the nickname secretary.

(1) Nickname secretary Sima Yi

Before the reform and opening up, he suspected that the commune (town) would make the village poor, so he changed the law and calculated from above, and reported the first class of land as the second class of land, and the second class of land as the third class of land, and for many years there was no one type of land in our village. In this way, there was less imperial grain handed in, and the villagers had more food to wrap their stomachs, and for many years, no one in the village had starved to death.

After the reform and opening up, his suspicions became heavier. "If you give enough to the country, the rest is all your own." As soon as the policy was taken, the land of the whole country suddenly became active, and more and more grain was beaten, and it was no longer a problem to eat, but the payment of public grain became the most important thing. He suspected that his nephew was dragging his feet, so he dried the wheat and loaded it into the car early, and shouted all the way from the street, "Pay the public grain!" Pay the public food! I'll go first, and those who will follow will follow." He also walked past his nephew's door and shouted, "Don't fall behind!" The nephew has a special opinion on him, and he says, "Everyone else is oriented towards his own people, you look at him, for fear of falling behind, just like I am old and backward, always dragging him back, that time is not him first and I am second." Our village has won the first place in the strength of public grain every year.

A large poplar forest was planted in the west of the village, and Secretary Sima Yi suspected that someone was stealing trees at night, so he often went to the forest at night to go around a few times, and someone had met him at different nights and at different times. When he saw someone, he always coughed heavily, saying that he had eaten bad stomach at night and got up to go to the toilet, and the more he said this, the more weak the others became, and the more suspicious he was that he didn't sleep all night and guarded this poplar forest. In autumn, almost all the trees in other villages were stolen, and there was not a single tree in our village. Felled down and auctioned. With the money from selling trees, most of the people were beaten, and the villagers cursed secretly, thanks to this Sima Yi who didn't sleep all night.

There is an orphan and widow in the village, and when her son is older, he can't marry a daughter-in-law in the local area, so he finally borrows some money and gets one back from other places. The poor widowed mother came to ask the village secretary Sima Yi to think about it, and the secretary Sima Yi suspected that xx would go to the family planning station to tell the informant, so he invited xx to his home, made a pot of good tea, and filled it for him personally. In a consultative tone, he said, "Look at this orphan and widow, what should I do if I bring a daughter-in-law and can't get married?" XX said in a tentative tone, "This is not easy to do, and the town can find out ......" "Come, drink!" Secretary Sima Yi took a sip of the tea bowl and said, "I think about only getting married, and having another baby when I reach the legal age, and there is no problem with passing it at the villagers' meeting, but I'm afraid that someone will sue the town" xx quickly said: "How can it, how can there be that person in our village, impossible, absolutely impossible" Secretary Sima Yi stood up and filled another bowl for xx, and said with a smile: "Come, drink more!" This tea is quite delicious."

Sima Yi, the nickname secretary, also has a set of crooked theories, "Horses have no night grass and no fertilizer, and people have no nicknames." Not to mention, the person who was nicknamed by him not only did not hate him, but especially liked to be called by others, which may be the charm of the nickname secretary Sima Yi!

(2) Liukou Pang Wen

In the 80s of the last century, the spring breeze of reform and opening up blew all over every corner of the earth, and the economy, which had been dormant for many years, quickly recovered and flourished. With the implementation of the division of fields into households, the cattle market in the farmers' market has also sprung up like mushrooms after a rain in the morning sun, and the cattle trade cattle economy came into being. Because the six families had fed cattle for several years when they were in the production team, they were quite familiar with cattle, so they recommended themselves to the cattle market to do cattle economy.

This cow can be very knowledgeable, not only to see the cow's coat color, posture, four kicks and fat, but also to see the cow's teeth, commonly known as the mouth. When the cow teeth grow to seven, they will have all the teeth, commonly known as seven mouths, also called Qi mouths. The cow will reach middle age, and the teeth of the mouth will be smoothed out and called the mouth of the mouth, and it will become an old cow. Therefore, most people are willing to buy a six-toothed cow, commonly known as a six-mouthed cow. Young and middle-aged cattle everyone likes, "six" to find out people's psychology, every time someone asked him to see the cow, he said six, the person who bought is happy, the person who sells is happy, and his commission is naturally high. Gradually, Secretary Sima Yi wondered, "Why are all cows six, bring them over for me to see," he is a jack-of-all-trades, grabbed the cow's nose ring, twisted it outward, and when he mentioned it, the cow obediently twisted his head to the side and opened his mouth, Secretary Sima Yi put his hand into the cow's mouth and touched it, hey! Isn't this a clear seven mouths! Secretary Sima Yi stared at the "six mouths" with his eyes and said, "You, you, you are really a six." Since then, "Liukou" no longer dares to mess with people, he is afraid that the nickname secretary will give him a more chic nickname from the cow, and it will be miserable.

Pang Wen is the second brother of a family of six, their eldest brother died, and the sister-in-law took a nephew and a niece. Originally, the brothers took turns to take care of the old man, but when it was the sister-in-law's turn, she quit, pointing at the old man and the old lady and scolding, "Why let me feed you, I have the ability to call your dead ghost son up and let him crawl out of the ground to raise you." After scolding, he sat on the ground and clapped his hands and feet and cried, "Child, his father, you don't care about anything when you close your eyes, you go with a clear heart, leave me behind, no one cares about my mother, no one cares, tell me how to live ......." The old man was so angry that he trembled like chaff, and the old lady's lips trembled, her mouth opened a few times, and she didn't say a word.

Pang Wen quietly took his parents back to his home, and his sister-in-law knew about it, so she ran to block the door and cried and scolded, "Your mother gave birth to yourself, and your father raised you?" Fill your filial piety, put green onions in the pig's nose, what are you filial to your son. Child, father, you dead ghost, you left so early, leaving us orphans and widows to be cheap, let others bully, you crawled out of the ground, you are alive and I will go to fill the filial son and daughter-in-law, wow...... How can you let me live .....". As the saying goes, "The eldest sister-in-law is better than the mother, and the younger brother-in-law is the son" Pang Wen let his sister-in-law toss and pretended not to hear it. Pang Wen's daughter-in-law couldn't stand it anymore, and whispered to Pang Wen: "I really can't stand it, she will come to make trouble when it's time to eat, you hurry up and find a place for your parents to live, let's stop and stop, I'm willing to give money and food secretly."

The old man and the old lady lived in the house in the courtyard when the production team was watching. In the blink of an eye, the north wind was blowing, the snowflakes were drifting, and seeing that the New Year was coming, Secretary Sima Yi muttered again, "Seeing that the New Year is coming, if the old man and the old lady spend the New Year in the courtyard house...... As soon as this trend opened...... It's easy to learn bad, but it's hard to learn! So Secretary Sima Yi came to Pang Wen's uncle's house, and found a few people who usually got along well with Pang Wen, and after discussing it for a while, they sent a child to call Pang Wen. As soon as Pang Wen entered the door, Uncle Pang Wen asked, "Now that the Chinese New Year is coming, how long do you want your parents to live in the courtyard house?" Pang Wen came down as soon as he heard the tears, "What do I do, my brother is dead, there is such a sister-in-law on the stall" He twisted his nose "I just went to see it the day before yesterday, the house is airy and leaky, like a cold ice hole, light a honeycomb coal stove, the fart is useless, and Dad's old cold legs are ...... again" After speaking, find a Xiaodeng to sit aside, bow his head and smoke a stuffy cigarette. "Hey!" Secretary Sima Yi sighed heavily, "If you let your parents spend the New Year in the courtyard house, you are not even as good as 'Pang Wen', no matter how bad 'Pang Wen' is, at least there is no unfilial piety, you can set a precedent for our whole village." "Yes" Everyone began to besiege Pang Wen, "If your brother is gone, you are the boss, and you have the final say on major matters, listen to what the girls are talking nonsense!" "That's it, it's up to you, your other brothers are useless" "No, we can't set this precedent, playing under a tree, who doesn't know who is the two hits, your sister-in-law talks nonsense, who believes him." "Let a girl detain it, hum, rabbits can drive, who still raises mules and horses?" …… Pang Wen stood up with a sigh, threw the half-smoked cigarette to the ground, and stomped on it hard, "Don't say anything, if you don't take my parents home today, I'm really fucking inferior to Pang Wen."
