Volume 1 Spring Bamboo Shoots Chapter 78 Difficult Sutra (II)
In the mother's house, the green branches and green leaves, to the mother-in-law's house, the face is yellow and thin. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info doesn't mention it, it's just a matter of tears.
Looking at the mountains of green bamboos, Chen Fengping remembered the riddle poem she had read, which was originally about the penny of the boat. Recalling it at this time made her feel sad.
This poem speaks exactly like itself. Who's to say it isn't? I thought that although I didn't say that I was as beautiful as a flower, I was also a beautiful woman in the village, and many of my descendants circled around me, and those who came to propose marriage almost stepped on the threshold. It's really in response to the old saying: "Thousands of choices, the last one to choose is a leaky lamp."
Her mother's family was in the Persimmon Tang Brigade where the commune was located, and she was only nineteen years old when she met Zeng Chenggong. At that time, Zeng Chenggong was 25 years old, served as a soldier for six years, and returned to his hometown after being discharged from the army to serve as a militia battalion commander in the brigade.
At that time, the slogan of "preparing for war and preparing for famine to defend the motherland" could be seen everywhere, and the commune would organize militia training from time to time, and her home was by the playground.
Zeng Chenggong's military atmosphere and handsome appearance are very pleasing to the girl, and she also has a good impression of him. He asked someone to come to his home to say that the matchmaker was proposing, but she was a little hesitant, but her parents refused. His parents thought that his family was in the countryside, he had a widowed mother, the family conditions were not good, and he was six years older than her. Her parents wanted to find a state cadre or worker for her to wear four pockets of clothes and eat three or two meters, so that she could jump out of the farm gate and enjoy Qingfu. At that time, there were several eligible families who proposed marriage in the media, and the families were also comparing and choosing.
In terms of family conditions and his own conditions, Zeng Cheng could not compare with those cadres and workers who ate state food, but in terms of appearance and temperament, none of those people could compare with him. She hesitated for a while, and simply refused on the pretext that she was still young, marriage is a lifelong event, and she wanted to compare a few more and find a better one in another year or two.
Zeng Chenggong was thick-skinned, regardless of whether you agreed or not, he ran to her house twice in three days, regardless of the white eyes and ridicule, and helped her family do this and that. And his mouth is very sweet, and he flatters her in every way. A good girl is afraid of Lang Mo, under his fierce love offensive of "one scare, two coaxing, three tyrants", she collapsed, she couldn't hold it for a while, and accidentally lost herself to him. She is a traditional girl, so despite the opposition of her family, she finally married in Xinghua Village.
She was only twenty-one years old when she got married, and she falsely reported that she was one year old before she received a marriage certificate.
Ten years have passed in the blink of an eye, how could she not have imagined that she would fall to such a point.
This hit her hard, and she couldn't think about it for a while, looking at a pair of lovely children, she was full of tenderness. Tears wet the pillow thought back and forth, for the sake of her children, she chose to be patient, of course, she also hoped to influence her husband with her diligence and filial piety, and looked forward to turning back.
However, the old grievances have not disappeared and new worries have been added, which makes her tremble with fear.
This year, she didn't have a good time at all, more worried and worried. This is not only because she has a bad relationship with Zeng Chenggong, but also because of the incident of killing the New Year's pig and what happened on the morning of the first day of the new year.
On the day of the killing of the pig, he was drunk and lay at home for more than a day and night, and only got up from bed on the afternoon of the 28th. When he was drunk and sick, he was not in good spirits for a few days. On the morning of the first day of the new year, when the door rang, Zeng Chenggong wanted to fight for the first place, but he didn't want to fall asleep, and he woke up when he heard someone setting off firecrackers.
It's all a man's business to set off firecrackers, and she didn't get up. She heard him flip the tongs in the hearth, tearing open the package of the firecracker, which had already exploded by the time the door opened. But there was no movement after only a short while, and she couldn't help but be surprised.
The firecrackers are a thousand sons, she bought them at the market stalls, and the firecrackers have never been counted enough, saying that they are 1,000 rings, but generally only about 900 rings. The man who sold the firecrackers was an old man, and he swore that his firecrackers were made by himself, and there would never be less than nine hundred and fifty firecrackers, and the medicine was brittle, and the goods were genuine. The five hundred explosions set off during the Chinese New Year's Eve worship and Chinese New Year's Eve dinner were loud, and the firecrackers were indeed quite good.
She expected that the firecracker would either break or go out, and her heart sank, which was a very bad omen.
Listen to the old generation said, the first morning of the new year to open the door ringing is to welcome the spring blessing, is the first thing to do in the new year, a crisp sound is good luck, if the intermittent sound dull and procrastinating, it is not good, if the disconnection is extinguished, the remaining one is not a sound, it is a big bad luck, indicating that the new year will be all things bad or even disasters.
She knew that this was superstition, and she couldn't believe it all, but all generations of people said this, thinking of the strange thing that happened when the dead pig entered the hall when she killed the pig, her heart couldn't help but fall into the ice water, fear instantly filled her heart, and tears wet her eyes.
After waking up, he was uncertain in the kitchen to prepare the family's breakfast, and even if the five-year-old son and daughter set off firecrackers in the yard to play during the Chinese New Year. There is no one who doesn't like to play with firecrackers, so she wanted to go out and tell her daughter to take care of her younger brother and be careful when setting off firecrackers.
She hurriedly threw away the spatula and ran out of the kitchen, where she saw her son's right hand drenched in blood. The little guy picked up a firecracker on the ground that did not go off, and saw that there was a small fuse on it, and lit it in his hand, but it exploded before he could throw it out, and as a result, he injured his finger. Haocai was not seriously injured, only two fingers were broken, she quickly carried her son back to the house, cleaned it and applied some purple potion, and found the inner white film of a spider's nest on the wall and wrapped it properly.
Zeng Chenggong scolded her with a black face that she couldn't do anything, she couldn't even buy a firecracker, and she went out without eating, I don't know if she went to the brigade headquarters or someone else's house, in short, she came back at night.
She was extremely uneasy, and she was always worried that something would happen, so that she spent the whole New Year in fear.
Now Zeng Chenggong has officially taken over as the secretary of the brigade. The plan of the year lies in the spring, spring sowing and spring ploughing, planting trees and accumulating fertilizer, and there are many things after the beginning of spring. He has always been in meetings to study, and he has not returned home for half a month. He came back after she went to bed last night, and left again at dawn this morning, without saying a word to her in total.
The day before yesterday, the son saw that other people's houses dug bamboo shoots, fried tender bamboo shoots with bacon, fragrant half of the village, greedy and shouted to eat, yesterday said that he was busy and couldn't get out, it happened that the women in the team did not work in the morning, taking advantage of the sunny day after the rain, she carried a hoe on Longyan Ridge, and wanted to find a few bamboo shoots in this bamboo forest to go back to her son to taste the hunger.
At this time, there are only a very few bamboo shoots that have just sprouted (unearthed), and most of them are all hidden in the soil, and after a night or a few nights of rain and dew, it will quietly emerge like an awl. At this time, you must not only be patient and careful, but also master some tricks, otherwise, I am afraid that you will not be able to find a few bamboo shoots all over the bamboo forest.
Chen Fengping wiped the tears on her face, cheered up, and searched carefully in the bamboo forest.
The bamboo forest is very quiet, and there are a lot of wild artemisia and wild vegetables growing on the ground, which are green and tender, and exude a faint fragrance of grass in the spring sunshine, tempting her to can't help but want to get close. There are thrushes and orioles singing and harmonizing, melodious, and woodpeckers on a camphor tree in the distance are pecking at the trunk of the tree. Chen Fengping unconsciously relaxed her mood and enjoyed this rare spring warmth.
There are a lot of newly dug soil and pits on the ground, apparently someone dug bamboo shoots in this area yesterday or this morning, Chen Fengping looked around very carefully, and after a while, she also harvested a few tender bamboo shoots.
Searching and seeking, most of the morning has passed. There were already more than a dozen bamboo shoots in the basket beside Chen Fengping, she felt a little distended in her lower abdomen, raised her head and wiped a handful of fine sweat on her forehead, and looked around, she had to find a convenient place.
She found herself unconsciously near the lion's den at the edge of the bamboo forest, put down her basket hoe, and even though there was no one on the mountain, out of feminine instinct, she still found a hollow place before squatting down.
She stood up easily, looking around inadvertently. On the left side of the body is the Lion Cave, the entrance of the cave is a few feet away from the bare rocks, except for some vines that have just sprouted new leaves and tender green thatch and no trees, although there is a blazing sun overhead, the small hole is still swarthy, like a monster's ugly mouth wide open, it feels gloomy and empty.
There are many caves on Longyan Ridge, and because of the legend, she rarely goes to the entrance of the cave to see it up close. She glanced at it, turned to leave, and there was a cry of crows in the air, followed by three or four crows skimming over the treetops and landing at the mouth of the lion's den.
Following the figure of the old crow, there was something wrong on the thatched grass next to the entrance of the cave, and the crows seemed to be fighting for the carcass of some animal, Chen Fengping couldn't help but shudder, opened her eyes and took a closer look, and what was exposed on the thatched grass was clearly a pair of long legs. The upper body could not be seen under the cover of thatch, but what was revealed were two legs and feet wearing cyan pants, as well as a pair of half-new and half-used liberation rubber shoes on the feet.
Chen Fengping's soul was furious, and she let out a terrifying and terrifying scream straight to her throat, the cry echoed over the bamboo forest, and several old crows flew away from the cave in a hurry and fled to the depths of the pine forest on one side.
