Chapter 249: Returning Home
The War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea was still in a stalemate period in 52 years, and many forces were wrestling on the Korean Peninsula. What does this sentence mean, let's just say donate money, and if you have money, you can make a strong contribution. At that time, there had just been a long period of war and turmoil, and although the people's lives were not so hungry, they were definitely not so easy.
However, the people's hearts are indeed united, and after a call, the whole country donated a large number of materials, guns, money and food, and by May 1952, the people of the whole country donated a total of 5,565 billion yuan. Now looking at the numbers is quite scary, but this money has to be followed by two words "old currency", it was said that in the 50s, it was passed through a large denomination banknote, but the face value of 10,000 yuan was at most one dollar, but even so, the money donated at that time was enough to buy 3710 fighters, which is also a huge amount of money.
Lushi County also donated money and grain at that time, and even Lao Wu and his grave team donated a month's wages. Of course, according to their small peasant thinking, they would definitely not take the money out like this, so they donated it directly from the county, and they almost didn't drink the northwest wind that month, but in the future, their faces will shine, and it can be said that they donated a month's wages earned by digging graves to fight imperialism.
The last meal they ate in Hengshan County was eaten in the dark, but fortunately, they were all accurate in their hands, not as evil as some people say, and they could eat it in their noses with their eyes closed. However, in these hasty dinners, they saw the glowing green tricks, which looked particularly attractive like the pearls of the night.
After eating, I was not in the mood to play with wine, so I left and went back to the hotel, and it was really uncomfortable for a few big men to squeeze on the small kang. Fortunately, they weren't too sleepy, and the brothers sat around the table, lit candles and stared at the small tin box on the table. I was trying to estimate how many tickets the green trick in it was worth.
Hu Dawei hurriedly put it away and put it in his pocket, and said with a shy smile: "Hey, what do I say? Look at me again, I'm going to collect money! ”
The sixth brother blinked his eyes and said to Hu Dabao: "Second brother, look at your buttons, hey!" It's like our brothers can take a bad look at that little bead, but it's quite valuable, and we'll find a place to sell it when we go back. If we have the money, we have to go first, go to take a shower first, how can I go back with this smell. ”
The third child sat lazily on the table, looked at each other, snorted and said, "Oh, look at your little bit of talent, just such a little gadget makes you greedy like this?" How will you make a fortune in the future? After speaking, he smiled with a frown.
Hu Da Bread made him laugh, stood up and said, "What nonsense are you talking about?" Silly, you can still make a fortune, dream of it. Grandpa Hu, I won't play with you, I'll go to sleep. After speaking, he kicked off his shoes and climbed onto the kang, and was about to lie down, but he saw the third child smiling, which was different from usual, a little strange but not strange, so he simply ignored him and stretched his arms and legs after lying down, and fell asleep.
It's still quite hot at night. This place in Hengshan County is very close to Gansu and is right on the edge of the Gobi Desert. If there is no wind, there is dust everywhere, and if the wind blows up the dust, then it will be guilty. They came out of the ground and rested in the shed for two days, but they were still tired, and in this carefree place, everything was once again up to them. That heart can also be put down, and the sleep will be more solid. But there are many villains on the kang, and the brothers are not small, not to mention turning over, almost all of them can be stacked up to lie down.
But when the night breeze outside the window blows sand into the house. There were only six people on the kang. Another sat alone at the table, his hands propped up on the table against his chin, and the moonlight outside the window would shine in, illuminating the corners of his slightly upturned mouth.
The next day, the three poles were up, and the brothers slept like pigs, and the house was full of the smell of sweat and feet of the old men, which was bigger than the smell in their dormitory. I don't know if I haven't washed my face for a few days, and all of them are like birds' nests, and those who flee don't bring such burying them, but they are all used to it, and they all get up after rubbing their heads.
Hu Dawei got up sleepily, moved his mouth to look around, and then said: "Hey, I said, who is going to get some water, how can your throat be dry, like your mother has dried it, what's the matter?" ”
"What's the grind? If you're thirsty, won't you drink it yourself? Don't see a well in the yard? Drink it yourself, don't chatter. The fourth child was still lying on the kang and was going to squint, but he felt that the kang was a lot more spacious, and when he raised his eyelids, there were only the fifth and sixth children left, and Hu Da was already standing and shaking, and the other three people didn't know where to go.
Hu Da swayed and went out, leaning on the door frame, and suddenly saw Lao Wu sitting in the courtyard, with a big basin in front of him, lying there to wash his hair. Xiao Qi took water from the well, directly carried the bucket and poured it down, Lao Wu took a shower with water, rubbed his hair and touched his face, and looked back to see Hu Dafang, only then did he show a little smile.
"Awake? Hurry up and wash it, it smells bad, and the house stinks. ”
Lao Wu slept very well this night, but he also had a few small dreams, in which the brothers were rich and were about to go home with the money, but they met robbers halfway and had to rob their shoes. Lao Wu naturally didn't let him, how could he walk back without shoes, but when he looked up, he saw that the person who robbed the road was actually a big bull, and he was smiling at himself with two rows of teeth. Then I don't know who turned over and made a move, and hit Lao Wu in the face, waking him up, and I was going to ask where Da Niu had gone in my dream, who he was, but unfortunately I didn't have a chance.
The brothers got together again, and there was no one missing, and it was estimated that the work of Hengshan would not be done, so I went back early to think about something to do. A few people said to go, while the sun had not yet reached the top of their heads, they all washed well with cold well water, rubbed the ashes on their bodies, and then went to the street to find a place to eat some noodles, and then went out of the city and went north, which was the direction of returning to Lushi County.
The journey is relatively far, but the brothers get together so that they don't seem too tired, and they get together like children, and they can always make trouble together without heart and lungs. Seeing them like this, Lao Wu didn't say anything, and he didn't care about it, they were all thirty or forty years old.
They were in a hurry when they came, but now they are not in a hurry to go back, so they did not take shortcuts over the mountains and mountains, but slowly followed the road to look at the surrounding cultural scenery, feel the land of China, and go home with laughter. (To be continued......)
