That day, I herded the cattle back and sent them to the houses of several sisters-in-law one by one, but fortunately, our family lived together, all the way, all the way, and it was not difficult!

Who knew that I had just finished delivering the cattle and drove them home--my house lived in front, and the cows had already returned home. At this moment, the pillar was wearing a pair www.biquge.info of big red pants, and "wow" scurried over from the front bend, like a rabbit, running very fast, because of the narrow road, and almost knocked me down!

"What is this kid doing in a panic? ......, did he make any mistake and Brother Mingde wanted to beat him? ”

Sure enough, the next moment, I heard the sound of hurried footsteps, accompanied by Brother Mingde shouting: "Pillar, run, run, run!"

"Really going to be beaten?! It's okay to get beaten! ”

While gloating, I looked back at the pillar and saw his embarrassed appearance, and my heart was dark.

At this moment, I heard Brother Mingde shouting loudly: "Calf, run, run!"

"What am I running for?"

I looked back in confusion and was immediately stunned!

Brother Mingde was behind, but his black bullock cow was running in front, with its tail cocked, its head lowered, its bull's eyes staring like copper bells, and its two horns bent towards the sky rushed forward, looking angry, rushing towards me!

"Run, calf! Come on! ”

Brother Mingde's anxious cry woke me up, but the black bully cow had pressed over like a hill, and the road was so narrow!

"It's over!"

Looking at the black bullock galloping towards me, my mind suddenly went blank! The black bully in front of me was only four or five meters away from me, and I could already see its blood-red eyes......

And that's when something strange happened! Suddenly, the black bull stopped on all fours, and slid in front of me as if it were braking.

Then it exhaled two hot breaths from its nose, and it exhaled to my face with a smell of herbs, and then it looked up at me, and the red in the eyes of the two cows immediately disappeared, and it stretched out its tongue and licked me.

At this time, I woke up like a dream, and my whole body was dripping with cold sweat, and at this time, Brother Mingde also ran over with 'whew' and 'whew', pulled over the half-broken ox rope, and hurriedly asked, "Calf, did you hit it?"

I didn't crash into it, but I was scared and couldn't be scared! As soon as I pouted, tears began to fall.

Seeing this, Brother Mingde touched my head and coaxed: "The calf doesn't cry, the third brother will buy you candy to eat!"

As he spoke, Brother Mingde tied the cow to the tree, and while digging out his pocket, he beckoned to the pillar: "Come here, go buy candy for your uncle!"

When I heard this, I hurriedly stopped crying, and while wiping my tears, I reminded: "I eat sorghum syrup!"

As soon as I put my hand down from my eyes, I saw an old man wearing an old yellow military uniform, full of herbal smell, blushing like a red egg shrimp, and an old man with eyes like a fish bubble, looking me up and down.

At this time, the pillar also ran back, opened his mouth and said to me: "There are many kinds of my family's land, and I still want to eat my family's sugar, you eat a fart!" Dad, I don't call him uncle, he's not as big as me, he should call me uncle! ”

At this time, the uncles and sisters-in-law on the street heard the movement and came out, and the little pillar was shocked! When those uncles and cousins heard this, their faces sank; And the sisters-in-law burst out laughing.

Brother Mingde's face couldn't be hung on the spot, he pulled over the small pillar, raised his hand and 'quacked' a few times, and scolded while beating: "Little rabbit cub, I don't know how old and young are good, if it weren't for your uncle, you would have been picked by the cow, apologize to your uncle!"

Saying that, he pulled the pillar to me, and looked at the bulging appearance of the pillar, I was very happy, thinking that you still want to find me, now you will be beaten first!

Who knew that this kid was very tough, and he stared at me for a while, and then after being slapped twice by Brother Mingde, he lost the sentence 'little old man', and then struggled and ran away!

These words made everyone laugh again, and Brother Mingde also laughed, touched my head and said, "Calf, go back and brother buy you candy and send it over!"

I said 'um,' and then I went home, and Brother Mingde led the ox and followed me with the old man—his house and mine by the way.

After a while, I heard the old man ask Brother Mingde: "Whose child is this, it's amazing!" At a young age, he has the spirit of the king of the ox! ”……

When I got home, I squatted down next to my mother and told her mother, who was cooking the pot, while my father was busy in the yard and occasionally interjected. Just as he was talking about the critical place, Brother Mingde carried two bottles of wine and a bag of sugar, and entered the courtyard with the little old man.

The father was drinking the cows, that is, he was feeding the cows water, but with salt. Seeing that Brother Mingde was bringing outsiders, he hurriedly threw the bucket and beckoned them to sit in the house. I saw that Brother Mingde really brought the candy, so I hurriedly followed.

Brother Mingde was direct, and while walking into the house, he said to my father: "Uncle, if it weren't for the calf today, Xiaozhu might have died!" Hey, I was wrong a while ago! ”

As he spoke, he shoved the bag of sugar into my hand.

My father earned just a breath, and as soon as Brother Mingde said this, he immediately got angry, glared at me, and gently admitted his mistake: "Maybe when plowing the land, the plow is crooked!"

Maybe because of the old man, outsiders are around, and my father doesn't want to say more about the buns, so after saying this, my father shouted to keep the guests, let my mother scramble eggs, and my sister peel jade raw rice, and let me play while I go.

I haven't seen that old man before, I guess it's not a relative, and I guess he won't stay, who knows that the old man is very thick-skinned, and he smiled like a red egg shrimp, and actually sat down!

But I didn't listen to my father, there are eggs, peanuts and other delicious food, what do I go outside to play!

My mother served the pickles and held a bunch of peanuts for them to drink first, and I naturally sat on a small bench next to me and waited.

Before drinking, Brother Mingde began to introduce the little old man, it turned out that he was from Liuhezi Village, called Liu Chuanyu, a cattle trader, also called 'Niu Shi'. My father knew him vaguely, too.

And he came to my house with Brother Mingde today because he saw that I was a cow and wanted to teach me the 'art of bullishness'!

When my father heard this, he immediately got up from his bench and shouted out of the house, "me, kill the chicken!" Kill the chicken! ”

There is a reason why my father is so excited, the cattle dealer is also the person who controls the cattle market, and this industry was not easy at that time!

Needless to say, the value of cattle is high until now, and at that time, the value was even higher. Isn't there a song that says - there are mountains in the east and rivers in the west, whether it is the southeast wind or the northwest wind, and my cow follows me!

Why didn't he sing and my daughter-in-law followed me?

The main thing is that in some areas, if there is a cow, there is a daughter-in-law, in fact, sometimes the cow is worth more than the daughter-in-law! And in our place, two cows can almost be done to build a house and marry, which is why my father cherishes cows, and my three older brothers almost all rely on my cow to marry!

Cattle are expensive! Therefore, those who sell want to buy more money, and those who buy want to spend less, in order to facilitate the transaction, there are cattle dealers! The cattle bank controls the buyers and sellers, and the depositors and lenders like the banks, of course, it is awesome!

But being a cattle trader is not just about mastering the market, but also about the art of cattle, such as how much meat a cow can produce, whether it is strong or not, tooth age, calves, and even diseases, etc., all of which can be seen at a glance by cattle traders.

Of course, I only found out later!

That night, my father was very happy, and he vigorously served wine to Old Man Liu, and asked me to serve wine to Old Man Liu, and told me interesting stories about my childhood, and drank about the same, and when he got up, he also asked me to kowtow to Old Man Liu to apprentice!

Old man Liu was enlightened, stopped me, touched my head, and said, "This is also fate!" When the child is older, literate, and sensible, I will teach him! ”

After speaking, Old Man Liu took a piece of chicken and put it in my mouth.

The three of them drank for a long time that night, and they were all very drunk. I don't know how they got back, because I was asleep when they left.

After Old Man Liu left, I continued to herd cattle and drink milk as always, and later went to school. It's just that compared with before, my life has one more thing than before, that is, to give gifts to Old Man Liu every New Year's Day.

Also, the pillar seems to have opened its mind, and it is no longer so cold to me, but it is herding cattle with me. But he ate a lot of candy from me, but he never called me uncle, just shouted 'little old man, little old man', and I couldn't beat him, which made me very annoyed!

What bothered me even more was that this nickname actually spread among other nephews and nieces, and finally formed a unified trend and became a permanent annoyance for me......

Time flies, and before I know it, my fourth grade is over, and I think I will have to repeat the previous rhythm during the summer vacation - herding cattle!

Who knows, after my father came back from selling vegetables in the market that day, he happily said to me calf, I met your master at the market, and your master will let you go to his house tomorrow!

Although Old Man Liu did not officially accept me as an apprentice, in my father's heart, Old Man Liu was already my master!
