Chapter 45: Domestic Violence
"What am I doing?" Hua Laoshi pointed at Hua Junyao, who didn't know how to reflect, and said, "You said that the old ladies chew the root of the tongue, are you a girl who is on the line?" What else do you say to destroy class feelings, do you know that getting involved in politics will kill people? Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info Yes! She's at fault with Huaihua, but you can't pit someone's family to death! Besides, are they wrong? ”
Hua Junyao knew that this was the case! She clearly remembers that at the beginning of the movement, two days before the Spring Festival in 67, she and her mother went to the city to buy New Year's goods in the grocery store.
When she was queuing, she saw an old lady, about fifty-seven or eighteen years old, not tall, with a big green scarf tied on her head, wearing a shabby cotton jacket, and a rattan basket in her arm, which contained eggs, noodles, firecrackers, couplets and other New Year's goods, and a portrait of a leader on top, the portrait was made of white porcelain, about 30 centimeters high. Probably the old man was afraid that the statue of the leader would fall out and break, so she tied the neck and legs of the porcelain statue with a thin hemp rope, and then tied it to the handle of the basket, and carefully carried the basket.
Suddenly, a young man in a green military uniform and red armbands rushed over, pointed at the old lady and shouted, "Counter-revolutionary! The current counter-revolution. ”
The people in the queue didn't know what was going on, and they all turned their heads to look at the basket to understand.
Hula gathered around two young men who were also dressed up, and one of the young men went up without saying a word, slapped the old man in the face, and then glared and said:
"You're so bold! How dare you blatantly insult the great leader! As he spoke, he snatched the basket from the old man's hand and kicked him again. The old lady was stunned and didn't know what was going on.
At this time, two young men came up and grabbed the old lady's arm, twisted it behind her back, and asked in a vicious voice:
"Where do you live?"
"Victory Road."
"Did you do this?" A young man asked, pointing to the statue of the leader.
"I bought it."
"Let me ask you who tied the rope on the statue of Chairman Mao?" The old lady then understood the reason for the young man's anger, and the old man explained:
"Young man, don't get me wrong, I'm afraid that Chairman Mao's statue will fall off and be tied up, and I don't mean anything else."
"Stop quibbling! What's the ingredient? The young man interrogated again.
"The urban poor." The old man said confidently.
"Can the poor insult Chairman Mao? I don't think you're like a pauper. Only the five types of elements, ghosts, snakes, and gods have such a great hatred for our most beloved Chairman Mao. The young man grabbed the old lady by the collar and said, "Go!" Explain to us at the headquarters. As he spoke, a young man carrying a basket and two young men carrying the old lady walked towards the city.
"What is the crime of me buying Chairman Mao's statue! Don't buckle your hat and bully me as an old lady. The old man struggled to leave.
"You current counter-revolution still dare to fight against the proletariat!" The young man raised his hand and struck the old man in the face again, only to see red blood flowing from the corner of the old man's mouth. As he struck, he said, "I called you dishonest!" ”
The old man wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and said unconvinced: "I am a poor person, who am I afraid of!" You are unreasonable, but there is something reasonable. Although the old lady was reluctant to leave, she was still pushed and shoved by three wolf-like workers.
The people in line looked at their distant backs and sighed: "This old lady is unlucky today, a few of them are from the city's labor team, and it will be troublesome to meet these plague gods." ”
This memory is so deep that Hua Junyao didn't dare to enter the city for two years, afraid that her words and deeds would be wrong and she would be unlucky.
In an absurd era, there are absurd moral standards and absurd standards of condemnation, which are far from universal values. There are good ones above, and there are effective ones below. In those absurd times, those who fell into the well were not condemned, but encouraged and connived. At that time, there was no uniform standard for determining guilt and innocence, and there was a great deal of arbitrariness, and it was possible to "kill a thousand by mistake rather than let one go."
"You're still laughing?" Hua Laoshi's fire came out again.
"Dad, am I such a careless person? As I have already said, this is an internal contradiction among the people, and there is no disrespect between our words, so we can't make a mistake. Besides, Huaihua is a poor peasant, and at most she is called to the team to preach, which is not that the city is not so strict. Hua Junyao said seriously, "Besides, if a child stons someone to death with a stone, that is also murder." Mistakes made by ignorance are also mistakes. ”
As soon as the conversation changed, Hua Junyao lowered her voice and said, "It turns out that Dad, you don't like them to go online, and you are convicted for your words." ”
"Woo woo......" Nian Juying, who was standing not far from Hua Junyao, immediately covered her mouth when she heard this, and said sharply, "You want to kill the whole family!" I dare to say this kind of thing, I don't want to live anymore. ”
"I won't say anything." Hua Junyao said in a muffled voice with wide eyes.
Nian Juying let go of her, sat on the ground, pointed at her, and said, "Don't say this kind of thing again in the future." ”
Hua Junyao muttered, "It's not that my father said that I dared to say that." He got up and said, "Dad, I can stand up!" Then he said flatteringly, "Actually, my father, who I should have thought of a long time ago, didn't let me go to the big tandem, and I already saw that you and the current people think differently, and have their own thoughts and judgments." He boasted as he spoke.
"You still say?" Hua honestly glared at her, and cautiously looked at the closed door.
"Don't say it, don't say it." Hua Junyao hurriedly shook her head and said, the corners of her lips turned up, "It's good that we know." ”
"Alright, alright." Nian Juying breathed a sigh of relief and continued, "In the future, you have to be careful when you speak, it's really a disaster from your mouth." But Yaoyao, no one says anything behind this person, and that person doesn't say anything in front of him, if you chew the root of someone else's tongue. ”
"This is simple, breaking the drum needs to be beaten with a hammer, and another sentence is angry, of course, this can't be said now." Hua Junyao's smart eyes slid under her curved eyebrows, and she said with a sly smile.
Nian Juying couldn't cry or laugh when she heard this, "With this person's words and ghost words, you are left alone." You're really good at sophistry. ”
"There are two mouths for words, and there are two hands for speaking, the left is reasonable, and the right is reasonable." Hua Junyao's bright and bright big eyes were full of pride.
"Don't talk in the future!" Hua Laoshi not only had a headache and said, this girl has experienced a while, she is well-behaved and obedient, but this speech is becoming more and more bold, it turns out that she doesn't dare to gasp in front of him, and he stares at her so frightened that she trembles. It's the same as a mouse seeing a cat, it's okay now, the hippie smiling face in front of him is coquettish, and he looks at himself with innocent eyes, so he is reluctant to scold!
If he wasn't sure that this was his daughter, he really thought he had been dropped.
Dare to say anything, and the endless meaningful jokes that appear every night fill the house with laughter.
This change is very good, but it also makes him tremble.
