After the class bell rang, the teacher came out of the classroom, and Zhao Xiaoying ran to Ning Guang with a "snort", chattering and asking her if she was very sad, lonely, sad, and wanted to cry?

Without waiting for Ning Guang to answer her, he said, "It's normal that you want to cry, after all, An Yi has left." ”

At first, because Ning Guang was really worried about the separation from Shen Anyi, she really felt the urge to cry when she said it, but Zhao Xiaoying talked about it over and over again for a day, and the next day she was still happy, and Ning Guang felt bored.

She said to Zhao Xiaoying: "Of course I'm sad when An Yi is gone, but you didn't go to Li Xiao either, why do you keep asking me if I'm sad or not?" Aren't you sad that An Yi transferred to another school? ”

When Shen Anyi was still in the village before, although she was not as good as Ning Guang with Zhao Xiaoying, because Zhao Xiaoying always did everything possible to post it and ask for warmth, every time she brought something to the snack, she would not forget her.

So this girl transferred to another school, and Zhao Xiaoying couldn't get any benefits either.

“…… Anyway, An Yi transferred to another school, and you are the most unlucky. At this time, when Ning Guang asked, Zhao Xiaoying was stunned and said, "Are you still crying?" Why not cry out? You must be pretending, don't dare to cry, afraid that we will laugh at you! ”

Ning Guang stopped talking, because he didn't know what to say to her?

Because of Zhao Xiaoying's leadership, for a long time in the next year, when the classmates saw Ning Guangtou, they all said, "An Yi is gone, do you often hide and cry secretly."

Seeing that Ning Guang pursed his lips and was silent, they continued with a hippie smile: "You must be hiding and crying secretly, you never go to the dock in the village to wash rice and vegetables, you always go to the dock where there is no one outside the village...... I must have been crying secretly at that moment! ”

For this reason, there are a few particularly naughty boys, and they also run to the dock outside the village to block Ningguang on their rest days, to see if she is crying there?

Ning Guang was scared enough, not that she really cried while washing, but that Shen Anyi stuffed her snacks on the fifteenth night of the first lunar month, she hadn't finished eating yet, and when she went out to wash, she tasted one occasionally, and was almost bumped into by these people - fortunately, they had the intention of watching the excitement, and they laughed all the way, and let Ning Guang notice it without getting close, and quickly hid the half-eaten snacks.

Even so, perfunctory walking away from these people, my heart was beating for a while.

It is easy to transfer the interest of children, and when the spring flowers bloom, everyone has forgotten about Shen Anyi's transfer, except for Zhao Xiaoying, who will often muttered a few words to Ningguang, others no longer pay attention to this matter, at most, when they pass by the door of Zhao Fuliang's house, they look down and say, "An Yi doesn't know if I'm back?" ”

Ning Guang actually wanted to ask, but she didn't go through Zhao Fuliang's house at all when she came home from the village school, and she was also afraid that if she asked the Zhao family or the people of the Ning family, she would cause any trouble again.

So every time I heard a loud classmate ask this question in the yard, I listened with my ears pricked up.

However, Shen Anyi has rarely appeared in the village since she went to Li Elementary School, and Zhao Fuliang's explanation is that Shen Anyi has good grades and talents, and has held many positions in Li Elementary School, and often has to participate in various competitions, so she either asks the teacher to make up lessons in school, or comes back to do various exercises...... The teaching quality of Li Primary School is much better than that of the village primary school, if the village primary school is herding sheep, Li Primary School is serious in teaching.

Zhao Fuliang's words resonated with many parents, and they all said that they must find a way to send the children in the family, especially boys, to Li Xiaoxiao.

Ning Fulin also told Mrs. Chu about this, and planned to make a few rows of vegetables: "I have to get some side dishes and set up a stall in the town, although it is not decent, I can save some money for Zongzong." After all, if you go to Li Primary School in the future, the clothes will not be worse than those worn by the children in the town. ”

When they said this, Ning Guang was sweeping the floor not far away, wearing shabby clothes and pants that could not be seen in their original color, and they didn't fit at all, these were her distant cousin's old clothes before she got married, some of them were cut by relatives to make shoes and rags, and some of them were begged by Ning Yue'e to wear them.

Growing up, Ning Guang basically didn't wear new clothes. Even if it's relatively new, it's not what relatives want.

It's not that she hasn't asked for new clothes, but every time she is scolded by Mrs. Chu, and the scolding is very ugly, because in Mrs. Chu's opinion, serious girls don't dress up and don't pursue beauty, if a girl wants new clothes, it means that she wants to look good, it means that she is wild, it means that she is not serious, innocent and restless, and it means that she is a bitch!

Mrs. Chu contemptuously asked Ning Guang to be honest: "Our old Ning family has never had that kind of shameless thing, you just don't think about yourself, you have to think about Zongzong, don't let Zongzong lose face!" ”

This kind of words are extremely lethal to a girl of Ning Guang's age, and she has never dared to ask for clothes again.

It's just that now after listening to the words of Ning Fulin and Mrs. Chu, my heart is angry, why can Ning Zong dress up instead of being indecent and innocent, restless, not ambitious, and the beauty family can't dress up?

But this mood came up and relieved: for her elders, the Niu Lao family should be enjoyed.

Ning Guang felt that there was nothing to say to them.

In the past, she rarely talked to her family, but at that time, she was full of fear and inferiority, and she felt that she was not on the stage and didn't know what to say to them; But now it's different, now she is beginning to wake up, the wife and Yaya, and Mu Yan, their understanding may not be right, and many of the theories they say are actually fooling people.

They're lying, they're lying, they're afraid, they're timid, they're not going to show it.

Ning Guang thinks that such a wife is like Yaya and Mu Yan, but in fact, that's what happened.

"The real thing they can bully is actually a kid like me." Ning Guang thought calmly, "Even if I grow up, they can't help it." ”

So she was still worried about being beaten and scolded, but the psychological sense of awe had gradually disappeared.

…… Zhao Fuliang's family's admiration for Li Xiao not only affected the Ning family, but also many people in the Zhao family were pondering.

Zhao Xueming told his cousin Zhao Xunqin about this matter: "I just built a son of the country, and I really don't want him to live in the countryside." But he was born with a lack of reading, and Xiaoxia helped Li Xiaonian to get it before, but he couldn't read it. Seeing that he is about to enter junior high school now, he can't be admitted to school after graduating from junior high school...... You can't let him come back to farming, can you? ”

Zhao Xunqin is Zhao Liang's uncle, the current village party secretary of Chaoyang Village.

He and Zhao Fuliang's branch are distant relatives, but they are cousins with Zhao Xueming, and they have always taken care of Zhao Xueming.

When he heard this at this moment, he nodded: "There is no way for our generation to farm, and we can't let the next generation suffer." "I asked if I want Zhao Jianguo to learn a craft after graduating from junior high school? He can help with introductions.

Although in ancient times, it was said that the status of the craftsman was still below the peasant, but in fact, the countryside has always respected this kind of people, because the legend has it that they have mastered witchcraft and will curse people. Moreover, farming when busy and working at leisure time is equivalent to an extra income than ordinary farmers.

So for those who can't study, it's a good way out.

Zhao Xueming thanked his cousin with satisfaction, but he was sad, because his family was poor, he was worried that he would not be able to get the thank you gift that Zhao Jianguo needed to apprentice - this year, the countryside apprentice still followed the old rules, he had to be an apprentice for three years, and he was sent to the master during the New Year's holidays.

Zhao Xueming felt sorry for his son, so he naturally didn't want Zhao Jianguo to be wronged in this regard.

"Otherwise, you let your younger siblings go to work in the factory for a few years first, and earn one." Zhao Xunqin thought about it and suggested, "Anyway, you don't have much land, you can get it alone, and where you can't get it, the founding of the country is also so big, you can take a hand." If you are really busy, let your younger siblings take a few days off. In this way, there are many incomes. ”

"To the factory?" Zhao Xueming groaned and asked him which factory he went to?

Zhao Xunqin suggested going to a chemical factory, one is close to Chaoyang Village, and the other is that the work of the chemical factory is not like those textile factories, which are late all day and have no time to take care of their families.

Zhao Xueming asked why he wanted Lan Xiaohua to go, instead of letting herself go: "What does she know about a woman's family, she also eats dry rice when she goes to the factory, don't be driven back when the time comes, and lose our face." ”

Zhao Xunqin knew that he didn't want Lan Xiaohua to make money, so he looked outside and whispered, "What do you think is a good thing to go to a chemical factory?" We countrymen don't understand, but we still listen to what Xiaoxia said, isn't Xiaoxia's husband a county cadre and a section chief in the Environmental Protection Bureau? In the past, when Xiaoxia was just married, she accompanied Xiaoxia back to the village, but what didn't she do later? It's not that I look down on our country, it's that I see that chemical factory and say that it will pollute and be bad for people, so I won't come. ”

"And this?" Zhao Xueming was taken aback, and then a little disapproving, "People in the city are particular, and the chemical plant has not been opened for a day or two, so we haven't lived here like this, and we haven't seen anything bad." ”

Zhao Xunqin said: "That's not necessarily, have you forgotten that the fields behind the village are all red when the rice is beaten?" The state refuses to accept it, which shows that there is a problem. So I thought, it's just that the wastewater from the chemical plant hits our village, Xiaoxia and her husband feel bad, and if they go to work in the factory, I'm afraid it will also hinder the body. Are you the pillar of the family, or don't go, otherwise what if there is a family called three long and two short? Let's let Xiaohua go, she is a woman, and the family doesn't expect anything from her. Even if you are a little weaker after you go, you will have no problem doing housework. ”

Of course, their brother's conversation will not tell Lan Xiaohua truthfully, after Zhao Xueming went back, he only said that for the sake of Zhao Jianguo's future, let Lan Xiaohua go to the chemical factory to work, although she still has to come back to do the things at home, but the field can not do so much.

Lan Xiaohua agreed without a heart.

This season, the weather is warmer, and the wild vegetables in the fields are scrambling, which is a good time to add vegetables when the green and yellow are not harvested.

As long as Ningguang is out of school, he can't stay at home, he will be thrown out to pick rice and sweet clothes, which is a very good-looking wild vegetable, with slender branches and leaves and brilliant yellow flowers, chopped and mixed with feed to feed the chickens, which can make the chickens grow better and stronger.

When the rice is almost picked, it is the turn of the rattle, in the local dialect called Pengmengtou wild vegetables, is the Dragon Boat Festival used to make the raw materials of the Youth League, Ning Zong likes to eat this very much, so every year you need to pick a lot - this is actually the favorite activity of the old and young women in the village, when the weather is clear, put on the basket, take the tools, make an appointment with three or five friends to go out, while looking for wild vegetables while chatting, neither feel tired of work, nor feel that life is miserable, but full of comfort and ease.

But Ningguang doesn't have such a partner.

Not only did she have no friends, but when others saw her go out, they would interrupt the original topic and laugh at her together.

After coming down a few times, Ning Guang avoided them and left.

On this day, she dodged out of the village as usual, and went to some ditches and fields where no one had visited to look for wild vegetables.

But because he had only come to search once last week, there were few new wild vegetables, so Ning Guang searched for a while and walked farther away from the village.

Before she knew it, she had walked to a very remote place.

The bright and colorful fields of rape flowers in the spring hide the girl's thin and short body, so that those who have specially chosen a secluded place to talk are unaware.
