Chapter 1: Wake up in a dream and be a guest
Early winter 1950.
In the courtyard and the east wing of the middle courtyard, there was a thirteen or fourteen-year-old boy lying on the bed.
I saw that the young man's brows were furrowed, and a painful expression leaked from his face.
Then the boy sat up slowly, lifted the quilt and rubbed his temples, and looked around the room.
A hellish look on his face, and then he lay back on the bed.
After some time, the boy opened his eyes again.
Crossed over!
and crossed over to the place where it was jokingly called the Poultry Courtyard by netizens.
It is known through the memory of the original owner.
The young man is also called Zheng Zhendong, and he is 14 years old this year.
It was the comrades who went to the city with the families of the army, and the comrades of the resettlement office with their mother and sister were arranged in the middle courtyard of No. 95 Compound in South Tongluoguxiang.
It was assigned two houses in the east wing of the courtyard by the comrades of the street office, and next door lived Lou Ji Steel Mill Dagong and Yi Zhonghai's family.
As for why it crossed, Zheng Zhendong does not know.
However, after all, I have experienced the baptism of the era of big data in later generations, watched online TV series and novels, and I am not too surprised to know that there is such a thing as crossing!
However, thinking of a social animal who enjoys 996 blessings in his later life, he just worked overtime.
Because I was so tired, I climbed on the table and slept for a while, and then woke up again and crossed over, which is also amazing enough.
Fortunately, I grew up in an orphanage, and I have lived alone for more than 20 years, neither marrying nor having any family, otherwise it would be difficult to manage.
Just as Zheng Zhendong was pondering, a middle-aged woman shouted at the door of the bedroom.
"Third child, are you up, is your body better? I can't get up when the sun is drying my buttocks, are you looking for a beating! ”
As the voice got closer and closer, I saw a middle-aged woman in her 40s, who came into view.
I saw a middle-aged woman wearing a homespun gown on her upper body, gray cloth pants on her lower body, and a pair of mille-feuille shoes on her feet.
With a bamboo gadda in his hand, he walked to the bed
, Zheng Zhendong knew that this was the mother of the original owner, and hurriedly spoke.
"Mom, I'll get up, I'll get up, you go out first, I'll get dressed!"
When Zheng's mother heard Zheng Zhendong say this, she knew that her son was older and knew that he was shy, but her face still leaked disdain, and she still spoke.
"Hey, you little brat, you were born to me, up and down your body, I haven't seen anywhere, and you're still shy!"
Having said that, Mother Zheng still walked towards the bedroom door, saying as she walked.
"Hurry up and wash your face and brush your teeth, and eat later!"
As the voice walked out of the bedroom, Zheng Zhendong also began to get ready to get up.
Lifted the quilt, picked up the cotton jacket and cotton pants on the stool and put them on his body, put on an old-fashioned old military uniform, and put on cloth shoes.
Zheng Zhendong picked up the toothbrush on the table, ripped the towel off the rope, and walked out of the bedroom.
Walking through the hall of four or five square meters, I walked out of the house and scooped a scoop of cold water from the water tank at the base of the wall.
Most of it is poured into the washbasin, and a small part is poured into the tooth jar.
Then Zheng Zhendong began to brush his teeth, wash his face, and finally poured the used dirty water into the sewer in the middle courtyard, walked home, and asked as soon as he entered the door.
"Mom, what's the little sister, haven't gotten up yet?"
Zheng Mu Wang Cuifen, who was cooking, said without looking back.
"Your sister got up early, thinking that she was as lazy as you, and slept until this is the end!
I should be going to the next door to find rain to play, just when you go to call her and say that you will eat immediately! ”
"Oh!"
Zheng Zhendong agreed, then walked out of the house, came to the west room of the main room of the middle courtyard, and knocked on the door.
"Who, what's the matter?"
I only listened to the immature children's voice in the ear room, and the sound was like the sound of He Yushui.
However, Zheng Zhendong's family had just come to the courtyard, and he was not very sure, so he asked tentatively.
"It's rain, it's me, your brother Zhendong, is my family Xinyi in your house? I'm calling her home for dinner! ”
At this time, He Yushui opened the door and walked out to speak.
"It's Brother Zhendong, Xinyi is in my house, we're talking, do you want to come in?"
When Zheng Zhendong heard this, he hurriedly excused himself.
"No, no, I'll call Xinyi to go home for dinner, rain, please call me for help."
"Third brother! Are you coming to me? ”
Before He Yushui could make a move, at this time, a little girl came out of the house and shouted to Zheng Zhendong.
"Well, go home for dinner, our mother has finished the meal, you don't know how to go home, let's go!"
He said a few words to his sister first, and then Zheng Zhendong asked He Yushui politely.
"Do you eat the rain? If you haven't eaten, let's go to my house and eat something! ”
When He Yushui heard this, he hurriedly refused.
"No, no, Brother Zhendong, my dad will get up and cook in a while, you guys go back to eat!"
Zheng Zhendong heard He Yushui say this, and he couldn't force others, so he had to say.
"Okay, then we'll go back to dinner, and you can go back to the house in the rain, it's cold outside!"
After Zheng Zhendong finished speaking, he took his sister Zheng Xinyi to the house.
As soon as I entered the house, I saw a basket on the dining table at home, which contained five or six steamed buns and four or five nests.
There was also a plate of pickles on the table, and three bowls of stick noodle porridge, Zheng's mother said when she saw the brother and sister come back.
"You two have dinner quickly, I'll go to the street in a while.
Yesterday, someone from the street office said that Director Ma was looking for me for something, so I went to ask what was the matter?
After you two eat, don't go out and run around, it's not safe on the street, do you hear? ”
"Got it, Mom!"
The brother and sister ate and said in unison.
After a while, the mother and son finished eating.
Zheng's mother cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks, washed them, and went out.
The brother and sister sat at home for a while, probably bored, and the younger sister Zheng Xinyi spoke.
"Third brother, I'm so bored at home, can I go and play with the rain?"
Hearing what his sister said, Zheng Zhendong, who was idle and had nothing to do, opened his mouth and said.
"Go, go, have fun with others and don't quarrel!"
With her brother's permission, Zheng Xinyi happily ran out of the house.
Zheng Zhendong looked at his sister who ran out of the house with a happy face, and couldn't help but sigh, children are children, as long as they can play with their friends, they will be happy.
Unlike the world of adults, which is always full of various problems, there are always such and such helplessness and sadness in life.
Just like the lines in Forrest Gump's story, life is like chocolate, you won't know what color the next one will be.
Yes, just like Zheng Zhendong now, he is obviously a social animal living in the 21st century, but he just slept and woke up and crossed over.
I also TMD traveled to, this barren era, everything seems to be a dream, so illusory and unreal, but I pinched myself, and the pain told Zheng Zhendong that this is true, really crossed!
