"Xiaoran, follow Brother Closer, don't lose it."

Zhou Xiaoran tightened the burden on his chest with one hand, grabbed the corner of his brother's clothes in front of him with the other, and found his own place on the train after a "charge". Zhou Xiaoguang asked Zhou Xiaoran to sit inside, and after putting his luggage on the luggage rack, he sat down in the aisle.

"Whew~"

Zhou Xiaoran, who finally sat down, breathed a sigh of relief, he didn't expect that there were so many people on the train at this time, and the degree of congestion was worse than that of the Spring Festival in later generations.

"Xiaoran, you sit down here, I'll go get some water." After Zhou Xiaoguang finished speaking, he took a military kettle and squeezed into the flow of people who had just struggled out.

Zhou Xiaoran moved his butt while looking around him, the hard seat was a little awkward, the key was that this position was a little leaning forward without knowing what's going on, it was very uncomfortable to sit, coupled with the various smells in the carriage, Zhou Xiaoran could foresee that in the next eight hours, he would get motion sickness again every year......

Alas, I miss the comfortable and fast high-speed rail.

Suddenly, an unspeakable stench pulled Zhou Xiaoran back from his nostalgia for the high-speed rail.

Zhou Xiaoran shrugged his nose and looked at the other side with his hand half-covering his nose, sure enough.

"Ouch, you stinky boy, why don't you just pull it without saying a word." The eldest lady holding the child scolded in her mouth and slapped the child with her hand, and the child cried as expected.

"Cry cry cry, you know crying, debt collector,"

"If you cry again, I'll throw you out of the train."

The child cried even louder.

Zhou Xiaoran couldn't bear it, "Auntie, let's take my grandson to the toilet to clean up, look!" It's all rubbed into their seats. ”

The people around looked at it, didn't they, how could people still sit?

Unexpectedly, the eldest mother, who was originally busy scolding the child, pointed the finger at Zhou Xiaoran, "Eh, I said this little comrade, do you still have eyes, this is my son!" How did I become my grandson, am I that old! ”

Well, Zhou Xiaoran is a little embarrassed, he mistakes people for grandmothers, people in this era generally seem to be more mature, in Zhou Xiaoran's opinion, sometimes it is really not easy to judge.

"I'm sorry, big... Eldest sister, you better deal with the child's body first. Excrement. ”

"What? What's it? ”

Zhou Xiaoran broke the jar and said loudly: "I said, you go to the toilet to clean up the on the child's body, I am almost suffocated from the smell!" ”

"What are you going to do? Thin? My son is dry, not thin. ”

Zhou Xiaoran had the urge to beat people, she suspected that this lady was deliberate!

"Big sister, let's change the pants for the child, there are so many people in the carriage, let's consider everyone's feelings in general."

"yes, it doesn't smell good."

The people around couldn't stand it anymore and spoke out one after another.

"Eldest sister, a child like you is easy to eat in his mouth, and it is easy to get sick when he eats in his mouth, and it costs money to see a doctor, think about it." A man in a green military uniform spoke, and the people around him echoed the words.

The eldest lady originally wanted to rely on not cleaning up, but when she heard everyone say this, she began to be embarrassed, picked up the child and went to the toilet, and added to everyone unwillingly: "This is the smell of dung!" ”

Regardless of whether she smells dung or not, she finally said she moved.

Zhou Xiaoran glanced at the man in the green military uniform, even if he was sitting, he could see that he was tall and had a tough temperament, but it was a pity that he "looked average", Zhou Mingming muttered, and suddenly, the green military uniform turned his head and glanced at Zhou Xiaoran, Zhou Xiaoran was startled, could it be that he heard it.

Zhou Xiaoran quickly turned his head, squinted his eyes and pretended to be asleep.

After a while, it is estimated that the green military uniform has not paid attention to her, so she quietly opened one eye, and sure enough, the green military uniform was leaning back against the back of the chair, with both hands half-clenched into fists, placed on her knees, and her eyes were closed.

Zhou Xiaoran exhaled lightly, how could he say it, and he was heard, how embarrassing.

At this time, Zhou Xiaoguang, who was fetching water, returned triumphantly.

"What does this smell like?" Zhou Xiaoguang frowned.

Zhou Xiaoran didn't bother to explain the source of the taste to him.

The end is that although the eldest mother said that she changed the child's pants and washed her body, hehe, the dirty pants that were changed were stuffed into the small bag around her, so during the train travel, the shadow of the dung fragrance surrounded everyone for eight hours, and it is comforting that in the later stage, it may be used to it, and the nose can no longer feel the harassment.

The train went directly to the county seat, and as soon as he got off the train, a man with a dark face and a medium stature came forward.

The two shouted in unison

"Uncle"

"Uncle"

The person who came was Uncle Zhou Zhifei. The old Zhou family has a total of two sons and a daughter, Zhou Xiaoran's grandmother is young and widowed, and she brings up several children alone, the eldest Zhou Zhifei is an honest one, living in his hometown with Grandma Zhou, earning work to support the family and giving birth to a son and a daughter. Zhou Xiaoran's father Zhou Zhipeng ranked second, he went to Shanghai when he was a teenager, and later returned to his hometown to get married under the pressure of Zhou's grandmother, but after getting married, he did not stay at home to farm, but went to the provincial capital to work hard, and after the founding of the People's Republic of China, he entered the provincial cotton textile factory, which is considered to have entered the working class, and the household registration also fell to the provincial capital, Zhou Xiaoran's mother Chen Yun was married later, so Zhou Xiaoguang and Zhou Xiaojun are half-sisters with Zhou Xiaoran, no...... Nor can it be said to be half-sibling..... It should be half-sibling. Zhou Xiaoran's aunt Zhou Aihua is a posthumous son, is the most favored of the old Zhou family, Grandma Zhou spent all her savings as a dowry to marry Aunt Zhou to the county seat, but Aunt Zhou's hukou could not move to the city, resulting in the birth of three daughters can not settle in the county, I heard that recently gave birth to a son, and Zhou Xiaoran's younger brother was born before and after, a family of six, five people did not provide food to eat, all rely on Aunt Zhou to feed alone, so Grandma Zhou sent food into the city from time to time.

"Uncle, is grandma's health okay?" Zhou Xiaoguang asked.

Uncle Zhou smiled innocently, "Okay, you can also go to the back mountain to pick up some pigweed and pick up some firewood." ”

"Where's your mom and dad?" Uncle Zhou asked.

"I go to work, my mother has just come out of confinement during the New Year, and my younger brother is young, I am afraid that the road will be too tossed, so I will stay in the provincial capital for the New Year, no, because I didn't go back for the New Year, my father was worried about the family, so I asked my sister and my sister to come back to see."

After listening to this, Uncle Zhou hurriedly asked, "Then who is your brother taking care of?" ”

Zhou Xiaoran smiled and said: "Usually the eldest sister is taking care of it, and Brother Xiaoguang and I will also take a hand." ”

Zhou Xiaoran added: "Now the school is very chaotic, we rarely go to school, anyway, my sister is about to graduate from high school, and the two of us have also graduated from junior high school." "She and Zhou Xiaoguang should not be able to catch up with the college entrance examination, and her sister Zhou Xiaojun can still catch up.

Uncle Zhou nodded, and after a long time, he held back a sentence, "Mother is talking about you, I heard that you are coming, I am happy." ”

Zhou Xiaoran only believed half of this, Grandma Zhou should only be happy about Zhou Xiaoguang's arrival, Grandma Zhou didn't like her and her mother since she was a child, if there was nothing else to do, Zhou Xiaoran would not have come back.

While a few people were talking, they came to a tractor, which was supposed to be the tractor of the commune.

There were already a lot of people sitting on the tractor, and when they saw that three more people were coming, they all squeezed together, and when all three of them sat down, the tractor suddenly moved.

Although some of the people on the tractor couldn't be named, most of them were familiar faces, and Zhou Xiaoran and Zhou Xiaoguang greeted everyone with a smile.

"Oh, this week's second child's baby looks different from the baby in our village, look at this white and clean, or raise people in the city."

"It's not good, Zhou Lao Er is promising, but now he is from the provincial city."

"People are also filial, but I haven't forgotten my mother when I am developed, I come back every year, but I have seen it, and when I come back, I will take back a big bag of things."

asked Zhou Xiaoran and the siblings again, "Are you coming back to see your milk?" Look at this, how filial you are, and still holding this big bag of things. ”

Just when the topic had developed to the point of introducing Zhou Xiaoguang and Zhou Xiaoran to the object, the tractor drove to the commune, and everyone got off the tractor, and some of them switched to the donkey cart, and Uncle Zhou drove to the locust brigade.
