Chapter I
The sun has always shone high in the sky, and the birds are laughing in the primrose flowers, and today two fighter jets suddenly appeared in the clear blue sky, yes, it is the kind of military green military fighter.
The fighter jet flew high in the air, humming loudly, causing everyone below to look up at it.
A short-haired girl wearing the most common floral shirt in the countryside stood at the door of her low house, curiously raising her head and squinting at the sky, and the two planes circled together above her head and drove back in the direction they came.
Deyier put away his gaze, went back to the house and washed up, and then went to the kitchen to find food.
She used to get up late when she was at home, and now it was noon, and her parents had already eaten lunch and went to the fields to water the crops.
This year is the dry season, and the primrose flower village is located in the southernmost city of the Yellow River, and the technology is backward at the same time, and even the climate is dry and hot, and the hot earth is open cracks.
In such a dry season, the villagers all pumped a large bucket full of water from their own wells, drove three wheels to the fields, and watered one scoop after another.
De Yier nibbled on the apple in her hand, wore a pair of white long water shoes on her feet, and wore a straw hat on her head, and after walking for a while, she took off the straw hat and held it in her hand, and fanned her face with the straw hat while nibbling on the apple.
"Degya, when are you leaving?" The dark-skinned, short-sleeved shorts, sweating profusely with a scoop of watering, saw Deyier, stopped what he was doing, pinched his waist and asked the only female college student in the village with a smile.
When Deyier heard the question, he replied before he could swallow the apples in his mouth, "I have to leave in two days, so I can help my parents water them." ”
In fact, there are a lot of college students in the village, that is, she is the only one who goes to college for a female baby, and this is not that she is angry, but she is a child in her family, and her parents have told her since she was a child that she must be admitted to a university no matter what, and show everyone in the village that female dolls are no worse than male dolls. Although I went to university, it is not a prestigious school, I studied a teacher in the local province and city, and now I have graduated for two years and work as a Chinese teacher in a primary school in the province and city.
Hearing De Yier's answer, the uncle still looked at the white-skinned and bright girl not far away with a smile: "De Yier, my son is also a college student, and when my son comes back, I will introduce you to you." "The highest education of those female dolls in the village is high school, and their appearance is not as handsome, and the uncle who can match his son will also recognize Yier.
De Yier smiled awkwardly, nodded perfunctorily and hurriedly left the uncle's field, this is the third person who said that he wanted to introduce his son to her, she is twenty-five years old this year, and the children in the village are generally married in their early twenties.
After crossing a few fields, I saw my parents who were bending down to water, and I walked a few steps quickly, took the scoop in the tricycle, picked up the bucket along the narrow ridge, and walked to my parents tremblingly: "Parents, you don't call me when you come to water in the field, you say that you will come back to water for you, I will be fine, and sleep until noon." De Yier said softly, scooping a scoop of water and bending down and pouring it on the ground.
The students are now in the summer vacation, and after she was busy preparing for the next semester, she heard from her parents that there was a drought at home, so she rushed back to help her parents water them.
He wears the same straw hat as De Yier, his skin is also dark, and the folds are all over his face, and he is only fifty this year, but he looks like a sixty-year-old man, and he is De Yier's father.
He straightened his waist slowly, and no one could see that he was once a man with angry eyes and a red neck that gave birth to a girl.
He smoked all year round as if he had a mouthful of phlegm stuck in his throat when he spoke, and his voice was indistinct: "It's not easy for you to come back, your mother and I can still do these jobs in the field." ”
When De Yier was born, De Yier's mother was ridiculed by many people in the village, and her father-in-law and mother-in-law also gave her a look, but now looking at the fair-skinned daughter in front of her, De Yier's mother still felt that this daughter was not ashamed of her, and she went to the big city in this small village, and her skin was whiter than those girls in the village. ”
"A woman's family is just a woman with long hair and short knowledge, and her skin is white like a scholar who can't help but be weak, what's so good." After hearing what Deyi'er's mother said, he immediately reprimanded.
Although he doesn't have a son, he has raised De Yier as a boy since he was a child, and the female doll's pink and lipstick or something, De Yier's father never allowed him to buy it. De Yier just took out a lipstick when he came home from college, and the lipstick given by his roommate on his birthday, after De Yier's father saw it, he threw the lipstick out on the spot, and since then, De Yier has never dared to bring cosmetics to his home, and every time he goes home, he is plain.
De Yier pursed his lips, looked up at the two planes that appeared above his head, and deliberately changed the topic: "Mom and Dad, why are there so many such planes today?" ”
Primrose flowers have been fragrant in the countryside for decades, and all I have seen are the common airplanes, and today is the first time I have seen this kind of aircraft, and I can see its fuselage clearly when I am so close.
"I heard that we have a unit here, and we are here for military training." It was only this morning that Dad heard from the people in the village that half a month ago, a unit was stationed here a hundred miles away, and he had been preparing silently before.
If it weren't for their plane today, no one in the village would have found out, and when the plane was found in the village, someone immediately went to find out the news, and only then did they learn that there were troops coming, and they were all air force flying planes.
Deyier looked up again at the plane that was spinning and flying sideways overhead, and continued to bend down to water the rice until the water in the bucket was finished.
After seeing that the water in my mother's bucket was also watered, I put the bucket of water mixed just now next to my mother, took my mother's empty bucket and returned to the ground to fill it with water, trembling and returning to the position just now, and she gasped softly after two trips back and forth.
Turning his head to look at his father's bucket, it was also almost empty, and Deyier continued to bend over and water it seriously, as if he didn't see it.
