Unexpectedly, it was my father who they called, and he silently listened to the head teacher and the grade director. The stupid brother's parents also came, and after repeatedly apologizing to the school leaders, they twisted their son's ears and took them out.

Xiaoya was able to return to the classroom, but the "main culprit" stayed, asking for a guarantee that she would not bring strangers into the school in the future, and that she would not bring anything back to sell.

Sitting on the bus home, my father had a black face and a murderous gaze, so he had to sit in the back seat three meters away from him. Xiaoya and her mother also got on the same bus.

The bus started and walked on the mountain road back to the village, Xiaoya's mother suddenly walked to the back seat and said, "Kaiming, listen up, don't play with Xiaoya in the future." She's still young, and I don't want her to learn badly. ”

I used to only know that people are big and small, but from her mouth, I know that people can also be divided into good and bad, and her daughter's little playmate has become a bad child in her eyes.

got off the bus at the entrance of the village and silently followed behind his father, he never spoke to his son, and he didn't even pay attention to the villagers passing by to say hello.

As soon as he entered the yard, he couldn't hold his breath anymore, picked up a piece of firewood casually, waved it at his son, snapped, hit the outside of his thigh, bent the paint cover, and almost knelt on the ground.

Gritting his teeth and standing up, he turned around and ran out, he chased after him, the firewood swept back and forth, but he couldn't hit his son's rapidly alternating feet, chased to the edge of the field, and when he saw that he was ten meters behind, he gasped and stopped, and the firewood was thrown far into the field, overwhelming a small piece of rice seedlings.

Seeing his back walking away, his son squatted on the edge of the field, pulled up his shorts, and had a bruise on his big foot, dark red in the center, and his skin was scratched by rough bark.

Fortunately, there was no bloodshed, and I ran so fast just now, so I should be fine, right?

After squatting for a while, the sweat dried, and when I got up, I jerked my big feet, oh, I died of pain. The bruised area was so swollen that he couldn't even straighten his feet, so he limped to the shade of the tree and sat down.

As soon as the body was cold, I felt the power of that blow, and if I hadn't run or fallen at that time, I would have to lie on the bed for half a month.

The wind blew, the rice fields rustled, and the heart was cold, and I sat under the tree until sunset, and the figure of the mother appeared on the field base, and she came over with a frown, and squatted in front of her son.

"You're in trouble again. Her fingertips poked her son's head.

There was a lot of reproach, but she would sit down next to her, waiting for her son to tell what had happened, and when she listened to the back and forth between the grasshopper and the little stick, she smiled, smoothed the messy hair on her son's head and said, "Ming Zai, when you grow up, you must find a job that deals with money, and you will definitely be profitable." ”

Later, he entered the financial industry, which was indispensable for her mention. But she didn't wait for her son to graduate from college before he died of cancer.

"It's getting dark, let's go home. ”

She walked in front, her son kept walking very slowly, thinking that she was worried about going home and being scolded, but when she turned around to urge, she saw her son walking in an awkward posture, squatted down, lifted his shorts and took a look, and frowned. She didn't speak, picked up her son and walked back.

Halfway down the road, she asked, "Ming Tsai, do you like it here?"

"I don't like it. "The mountain wind here is too cold, the sunset is hidden under the high mountains early, the annoying village chief, and the men who are shouting loudly while playing cards under the banyan tree at the entrance of the village.

The mother didn't ask any more questions, until many years later, when she often remembered that evening, when the sunset was particularly red, the shadows of the trees were swaying, and the mother was walking in the field with her son on her back.

Maybe it's the first time to make this choice, or it's lying on the back of a long-lost mother, and at that moment I suddenly feel that I have grown up, and I am no longer the heartless child.

The next day after school, just entered the house and saw that the ground was full of cups, tin cans, kettles and other objects, my father hurriedly walked over, hurriedly got out of the way, he went out of the yard, it is estimated that he went to drink at home.

Mom carried the door with her back, facing the wall calendar, wiping something from the corner of her eyes, guessing tears. She heard footsteps and turned to face her son casually, what was on the ground did not exist in her eyes.

Staying alone in the room at night, hearing the sound of the courtyard door opening, my father came back with a red face, and must have drunk a lot of wine, so that his mother scolded him as usual, and he didn't dare to say anything at all, that is, between these words, I learned that he lost money outside yesterday, and was called to school, thinking of the stick on the foot, it turns out that things in the world do not always happen one-on-one, which is mixed with other factors, which may have nothing to do with the result.

The son made a mistake = the son was beaten, and as a result, his thigh was bruised

Playing cards and losing money X son was beaten, and as a result, his thighs were bruised

Maybe the rain will cause a beating, and the sun will be too strong to cause a beating, and this is possible, but you are the only one who is beaten every time, and no matter how stupid you are, you can understand what is going on.

I hated him so much, I hated the village so much, and when I heard my mother say that she was going to leave with her son, I hoped she was telling the truth.

At six o'clock in the morning, the sun is just the dew of the mountains, the wind is cool, and there is only the old banyan at the entrance of the village, and it is really not used to going to school alone.

Brother Silly and Xiaoya haven't seen each other for two days, probably because the family is strictly controlled.

Walked around the banyan tree, but saw two smiling faces behind me.

"Silly brother, Xiaoya. ”

The two jumped and ran over, but fortunately, the friendship between the little playmates was relatively iron. The stupid brother has red marks on his hands, and he was found to have secretly gone to school, so he was beaten by his parents, he stood alone under the banyan tree, watching the backs of his two friends going to school.

During recess, Chubby came to the door, his grasshopper was crushed by the textbook in his backpack, and he wanted to spend fifteen yuan to buy another one, which was a beautiful thing, but the day before yesterday he promised in front of the teacher and school leaders that he would no longer sell things among his classmates, although this could be done secretly, but as a boy, how could he regret what he had promised.

The fat man was always pestering, and said that he could take people into his father's mine to play, where there were new and interesting things. In the end, I had no choice but to promise to give him one for free, which should not constitute a violation of school discipline.

According to the agreement, he was waiting for him at the school gate after school, the bus was about to leave, and the fat man had not yet appeared.

"Kaiming, let's go home together?" Xiao Ya appeared behind her, carrying a small schoolbag and pointing to the bus.

"Xiaoya...... You go back first, if your mother sees us out of school together, you will definitely be scolded. ”

Her eyes sank, and she slowly walked into the car, waving her hand through the glass window. A puff of black smoke came out of the exhaust pipe, and the bus was out of sight.

Someone tapped him on the shoulder, "What are you doing?" and turned around, and the fat man stood behind him.

"The car is gone, can't you take two steps faster? ”

"Hey, what's the hurry? He folded his hands and tilted his head to one side, and a black sedan drove by, slowly parked on the side of the road, with a three-pointed star sign erected on the hood, and the air intakes were the shape of a room, with shiny silver grilles.

A white-gloved uncle walked out of the car, and the fat man called him "Uncle Li", he nodded and opened the back seat door.

"Are you a relative?" Sitting in a stranger's car, it is not good to be abducted.

The fat man squinted at the classmate who followed him, "I'm the driver." ”

Sitting in the car with your head down, the seats are soft, and the surface is a layer of black cowhide with slippery hands, even if the pedestrians on the street pass quickly outside the window, the car is still stable, much stronger than the bus.

"Little master, go home directly or ......"

Before the uncle could finish asking, the fat man said, "Go to the mine to find my father." ”

"Okay. ”

The sedan left the city and was confronted by three large dusty trucks, their tailpipes spitting out thick black smoke and roaring forward on a potholed dirt road.

The fat man pointed to the black stones on the car body and said, "That's what my family digs." ”

He called this kind of stone granite, which is often used in construction and decoration. I heard him say that such a car of stone cutting can be sold for nearly 10,000 yuan. In the nineties, this was an astronomical amount.

In the distance, I saw a black hill, and the car drove around the foot of the mountain, and the mine was on the back of the mountain, and the quarrying truck was going back and forth on the steps, almost hollowing out half of the mountain.

As soon as the fat man got out of the car, he ran to the construction site and stopped in front of a man with a leather bag under his arm, who squatted down and touched his head with a smile. The fat man declared that he was going to catch grasshoppers in the back mountain, so he ran away with his classmates.

If he meant catching grasshoppers, he would be disappointing, green and gray, and so fat, that only the lonely children in the city would find it a novelty.

There was a flat green meadow in the back hill, full of small flowers, and the fat man led the way in front, and several grasshoppers jumped under his feet, and he didn't even look at it.

"Where are we going?"

He pointed to the grassy cave and said, "Here we are, there it is." ”

Stop at the entrance of the cave and look inside, the ground is covered with wet moss on the walls of the cave, and the inside is so dark that you can't see the end with the naked eye.

The fat man bent down and took out two flashlights from his school bag, "This used to be a mine cave, and it had to be abandoned because of the underground water dug up. ”

"What's in there?"

He handed over a flashlight, "Strange little animal, keep it you haven't seen it." ”

"Heh, I live in a mountain village, I haven't seen anything, I can name every animal in the mountain. ”

"These are different. As he spoke, he turned on his flashlight and walked into the cave.

"Fatty, wait. ”

"Keep up, I've been in there many times, it's safe inside. ”

The cave stretched all the way down, and I don't know how many meters I walked, the entrance of the cave became narrow, and the large machine dug it out here and it ended. The fat man climbed into a narrow hole that could only accommodate children, and the hole was full of mud, and the clothes would definitely be damaged by this drill, "Don't be stunned, come in quickly." ”

After drilling through two or three meters of narrow place, the cave became open again, there was no grass and no light, the earth and the sky were smooth stones, a drop of water fell on the neck, the whole body trembled, the flashlight shone upward, and the long and sharp stalactites were dripping with water.

When they looked up, they saw something glowing dimly on the roof of the cave, and in order to make sure that this was not a light reaction, the two turned off the flashlight. As soon as the lights went out, the thing became brighter and spread out densely, like stars in the night sky.

"They...... What the hell?"

"I don't know. ”
