Chapter 5: The Ghost Market (1)
As I mentioned in the previous chapter, I am a person who was born after the moon. Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info I have been sick since I was a child, which has caused me to encounter many incredible things. When I tell a lot of people about my experience, they won't believe it. Maybe many things are predestined, don't believe it, please close the window in the middle of the night.
In 1995, when I was in the first grade of elementary school. Due to the renovation of the school, we temporarily went to the village assembly hall to study. In my early years, I lived in the countryside, and I remember that there was no electricity in the village at that time. People live the days of sunrise and sunset. Every house has kerosene lamps lit, and I have picked out the wicks.
It was a late autumn morning, "Xiaofeng, get up, hurry up to eat and go to study." "In a daze, I was pulled up by my mother. At that time, there was no clock at all, and I didn't know what time it was. With great reluctance, my mother put on my clothes and pants.
"Mom, I haven't slept yet?" I couldn't keep my eyes open. I was pulled up by my mom like that. My mother cooked the noodles for me and fried an egg, and then put the noodles on the table for me, and my mother went to see if the little red in the village was there.
Xiaohong was my best playmate in childhood, she was two years older than me and she was in the third grade. Every time I gave her snacks and asked her to help me with my homework, many times my mom found out. In the end, homework was done from doing also spanking. But I still have no past, and when I have the chance, I will ask Xiaohong to help me with my homework. I'm sure there will come a time when my mom won't find out.
My mom came back before I finished eating. When I had a good meal, my mother tied me a red scarf, a white school uniform, and a red Sailor Moon school bag. When I was a child, I only loved red, and all the clothes I chose were red. There was also a pair of small red rain boots, maybe my father carried the dead man when my mother was pregnant with me, and the newlywed woman who hung herself in red clothes. Later, when he got older, a boy wearing red clothes would be laughed at. But I've always loved red, and sometimes I'm so happy to wear it.
My mom took me to Xiaohong's house, and she was eating, so my mom handed me over to Xiaohong and asked Xiaohong to take me to school. "Xiaofeng, why are you so early, you see that my grandmother only gave me two boiling eggs," Xiaohong said to me after my mother left. Xiaohong is the granddaughter of the old witch I mentioned in the previous chapter, and her mother was born to her ex-husband when the old witch was not married to my fifth grandfather. "Sister Xiaohong, hurry up and eat, we'll go to school in a while, I still have two questions that I didn't do last night, can you help me do it." I whispered to Xiaohong.
Xiaohong tied a red scarf after eating, and went to school with the satchel and schoolbag made for her by her grandmother. I was like a heel behind her. There was still moon outside that day, and I went to school with her with the moonlight. "I'm afraid, Sister Xiaohong," it felt particularly terrifying when I came to a valley where the moonlight shone on the shadows of the trees on the side of the road. I took Xiaohong's hand, and at this time I felt that Xiaohong was my hero, "Xiaofeng, don't be afraid of Sister Xiaohong protecting you." "As we walked through a valley, the front was suddenly lit up and people were buzzing.
"Where is this, why haven't we been here before, are we going the wrong way?" I said to Xiaohong.
"I don't know! I've never been here before, and we're still going the same way we used to, or we're going to keep going. "Maybe we were too young to know anything, so we walked over to us. What appeared in front of us was some wooden buildings, a street.
I looked around, the rows of small wooden buildings on the second floor, and the street was full of people wearing long clothes, and it was impossible to tell the difference between men and women with long hair. There are a lot of things in this bazaar that I haven't seen before. Two lanterns are hung in each wooden building. We kept going inside, and I felt like everyone was looking at us in the street, and I was really not afraid at all, but now I feel scared when I think about it.
We walked to a place that sold steamed buns, and I smelled the steamed buns, and I had two cents in my pocket for noon soup. I felt that Xiaohong also wanted to eat steamed buns, and touched the money in my pocket. "Sister Xiaohong, let's go buy a bun to eat, one for each of us. Give me some food at noon. "I remember that my mother used to buy me buns for a dime a dime, and I could buy two for two cents.
"Well, thank you, Breeze." Sister Xiaohong is happy. "Uncle gave me two buns," I said to the owner of the bun shop wrapped in a turban and wearing a long coat.
"Okay, two fragrant buns," said the boss, who opened the cage drawer, and a stream of hot air with the smell of fragrant buns hit my palate. When the boss wrapped the bun in paper, my saliva flowed. I glanced at Xiaohong, and she seemed to be drooling too. When the boss handed me the buns. I gave the boss the two cents of the fever in my hand. At that time, the boss paused. He took the money, looked at it and said, "What is this?" Two buns for children, two pennies. ”
Xiaohong and I said to the boss, "Uncle, we don't have two cents, only two cents, and the buns on our street are all a dime." The boss thought for a moment, then said with a smile: "Look at your two children, you are very cute, the buns are counted, I will invite you to eat, and I will return the two cents to you." ”
When the two of us heard the joy, they said loudly to the owner of the bun shop, "Thank you, uncle, you are so good." "I thought the buns were delicious, and we were bouncing around while eating them. At this time, I suddenly heard a child's voice: "Come and catch me, come and catch me!" "There was a bang, and I was knocked to the ground by a kid in a little shirt with an antenna on his head. Xiaohong immediately pulled me up, and then said to that hi hi, "What are you doing, you don't have long eyes when you walk!" "At this time, there were three more children, who were about the same age as us, and two boys and later individual girls. The girl is wearing a little skirt, and it feels so beautiful to tie these two little braids. The other boy is a little chubby, with a handful of baskets on his head, which feels very silly. Another boy wears a hat and a shirt.
The boy who hit me got up from the ground and said, "I'm sorry, I was embarrassed to overdo it," he touched his head and giggled. At this time, the three children also came running over and looked at us with very strange eyes: "Who are you!" How come we've never seen you. The little girl looked at me and said.
"We are going to study, we may have taken the wrong path to come to you, do you know how to go to Dadi Primary School?" I said to the little girl. "Where are you from? I don't know about Dadi Elementary School? The little girl looked suspicious. Our house is not far from here, and it will take us half an hour at most," I said to the little girl.
At this time, the little fat man, said; "What's on your neck?" I felt very strange, "Red scarves, elementary school students have them, don't you go to school?" ”
Then the kid who bumped into me shouted, "You must be rich people in the city who go to school at such a young age, and we haven't seen your clothes." "We don't have any money? We also live in the mountains, and we are not as good there as you are. ”。。。
Slowly, a few of us got acquainted with each other, and I learned that the kid who bumped into me was called Liu Zihou, and everyone called him Little Monkey. The little girl's name is Liu Yanran, and everyone calls her Xiao Ranran. The little fat man is called Liu Zihao, and everyone calls him the little fat man. The other one is called Liu Zijie, and everyone calls him Xiaojie.
