Chapter 23, my mouth is open.
"The third, the third! Got up. ”
Sleeping incense! Yang Xiaole felt that someone had pushed him.
When he woke up and saw his father Yang Guangzhi standing on the edge of the kang, he knew that it was time to set off.
But he didn't feel like he had squinted for a moment!
I really don't want to get up.
"Get up and go to sleep in the car!"
"Well, that's it."
With a promise, he still endured sleepiness and got up.
Put on your shabby undershirt and get ready to put on straw sandals.
Yang Guangzhi explained to him beside him: "Wear cloth shoes, wear better clothes, how ugly it is to wear straw shoes when you go to the city!" I'll wait for you outside. ”
After saying that, he turned around and went out.
Yang Xiaole was speechless for a while when he heard this.
What damn vanity!
I got out of bed and went looking for my shoes.
Touching the dark, by the moonlight outside the window, I took a pair of cloth shoes with patches, found a pair of socks and put them on directly.
"Brother, when you go to the city, can you buy me a head rope!"
Yang Xiaole was looking for clothes to wear when he heard a voice at the door.
This is the old five woke up.
I saw the other party standing at the door, blinking and looking at him with a look of hope.
I took out a patch with a little less, and only five or six patches of clothing came out.
smiled at Yang Xiaoli and said, "Okay, brother will go and show you, go to sleep!" ”
When the fifth child heard this, he smiled, and then went back to the house to sleep satisfied.
After dressing, he groped his way out of the room.
I don't brush my teeth either.
When he came to the door, Yang Guangzhi stood at the door waiting for him!
When he saw him come out, he pointed to the cart and said, "Sleep!" I'm in a hurry! When I woke up, I arrived. ”
Yang Xiaole looked at the small mattress behind the cart, which should have been prepared by Wang Qiuju.
Climbed straight up.
But as soon as I lay down, there was a smell of urine in front of my head.
It was a wooden bucket for the manure.
This thing is a treasure and can't be wasted.
"Okay, okay? Okay, let's go. “
"Alright, let's go!"
It's a bit diaphragmatic, but it's still bearable, and it's quite comfortable to lie flat.
"Okay, let's go! der~~”
Yang Guangzhi saw that his son was lying down, he sat on the front of the cart behind the mule's buttocks, shouted, and set off.
Yang Xiaole heard the sound of frogs and insects chirping in the rice field, and most of the sleepiness just now dissipated, and he couldn't sleep a little.
Crossed Erlang's legs.
"Dad, what time is it? When will it arrive? ”
"I don't know, it's almost the second half of the night, it's okay, it's late, it's late, it's a big deal to come back tomorrow night."
"Well, it's okay, did you bring it?"
"Bring it, or someone will have to get it!"
Yang Xiaole nodded, it would be annoying to be caught, although someone would come to collect it, but it was very embarrassing.
Seeing Yang Guangzhi rushing to the direction of the commune, he was worried about taking the wrong road, so he still asked: "Dad, do you know the road?" Don't go the wrong way, you can't find anyone in this black light. ”
It's sixty miles from the city!
I don't know where to go.
Yang Guangzhi laughed: "Don't worry, I have inquired clearly, when I get to the commune, I will drive five miles, there is a coal car road leading to Fuchengmen, don't go into the small road along the main road, go straight and you can get there." ”
Hearing this, Yang Xiaole was relieved.
The Mentougou Coal Mine has been the main supplier of coal mines in Kyoto since ancient times, and he had heard of this when he came here.
Don't look at the dangers of coal miners, but they are serious working class, and you can't just go there if you want to.
"Alright, you can sleep for a while. It's still early! Cover your stomach with a mattress. Don't freeze your stomach. ”
After saying that, he patted the mule and moved forward quickly.
Yang Xiaole felt the bumps under him, and felt that he could sleep for a while.
Rolled up the corners of the mattress and covered his belly.
No matter how hot the day is, you can't freeze your stomach, and it's easy to have diarrhea.
It seems to have returned to the feeling of dizziness when I was held by Wang Qiuju to sleep when I was a child.
I was completely shaken and fell asleep.
Now I feel that way again.
It's just that this mosquito is too much.
To the accompaniment of frogs and insects, he fell asleep in a daze.
……
"Bang dang!"
"Oops~~"
In a daze, Yang Xiaole was bumped into the cart directly by his head, and suddenly he was sober.
Yang Guangzhi smiled when he saw this: "Isn't it too upset?" ”
"Well, it's a little, it's okay, you drive your car, leave me alone! Where has it been? ”
As soon as he finished speaking, he felt the mule cart stop, and he hurriedly rolled over and pulled the mattress a little.
Suddenly stopped while catching the car.
It's either pooping or peeing.
Although it is a little away from the buttocks, it is better to be careful.
Really.
I saw Yang Guangzhi quickly pick up the wooden bucket hanging next to him and put it directly under his buttocks.
"Poof! Poof! ”
In the darkness, large chunks of objects fell with a foul stench.
It's really a lazy donkey that grinds and urine.
It's only been a few miles!
Yang Guangzhi put the wooden barrel away, and only then did he have time to say: "Oh, it's time to go to the road where the coal car goes, but this road is not the way it looks." You bear with me, and it'll be there soon. ”
When Yang Xiaole heard this, he looked at the wide road by the moonlight, which was full of potholes on the ground.
Good thing it didn't rain.
Otherwise, the road will be even more difficult.
"Papa~"
Swatting off the mosquitoes lying on his body, Yang Xiaole looked at the sky that woke up.
It's still a time to look comfortable.
In later generations, there were few stars in the big cities.
After a while, Yang Guangzhi saw that the mule was pulled, and lifted the barrel and hung it on the side of the board car.
"Alright, lie down, let's go."
After saying that, he sat on the board car and drove the car.
Seeing this, Yang Xiaole rolled up the mattress of love and laid it down on the cart again.
Bang Dang......
Bang Dang......
Wandering all the way to the city.
I don't know how many times I was woken up by Dangyou along the way, and I also ran into a car pulling coal from the coal mine in the middle.
The mule cart gradually moved out of the farmland area.
"The third child, it's almost there."
Seeing the city tower in front of him, Yang Guangzhi was happy for a while.
Yang Xiaole had already woken up.
Hearing this, he hurriedly turned his head to look.
In the darkness, a huge castle tower could be seen standing in the distance, with a little bit of light.
At this time, there were already some people on the road or donkey carts or the like.
In the darkness of the surroundings, you can see that there are construction sites everywhere.
It's like the big wave of housing reform in later generations.
"Doot toot!"
Behind him came the sound of bright lights and car horns.
Yang Guangzhi hurriedly leaned the mule to the side, allowing the car to pass first and not blocking the way.
"Yang Xiaole?"
Suddenly, a familiar voice came from the car.
Yang Xiaole's scalp tingled when he heard the voice.
I'm going to open my mouth.
I just lied yesterday that Luo Jinping was going back to the city and went by myself, and today he ran into it.
"Master, I'll get off here, I'm sorry for you."
Luo Jinping got out of the car and said hello to the driver.
Close the door and drive away.
At this time, Luo Jinping walked over with a smile.
"Teacher Luo (Teacher Luo!) )”
Yang Guangzhi and the two smiled and said hello.
Yang Xiaole also got out of the car.
Luo Jinping responded.
Then he smiled: "Xiaole! You ......"
Yang Xiaole saw that the other party was going to speak, worried about goofs, and hurriedly said, "Teacher Luo, you came to the city by special car!" My dad and I took me into the city to see a doctor. ”
Luo Jinping knew that he was going to come to the city to see a doctor, so he didn't think much about it: "Where is the special car, it's too far to go to the county seat and troublesome." I waited on the side of the road in the middle of the night when I came across a coal truck that brought me along the way. ”
"Oh, why don't you continue to ride, it's not in town yet!"
"It's okay, the car will turn around at the gate of Fuchengmen, and I will get off there. I just happened to run into you. Let's go for a walk. ”
Luo Jinping watched the two stop there, and said with a smile: "Daddy Xiaole, let's go!" Just together. ”
When Yang Guangzhi heard this, he drove the car to the front, and it wasn't too far anyway.
While walking, Luo Jinping asked the two of them, "Which hospital do you go to?" ”
"It's not decided yet! I'll go into the city and have a look. ”
"Oh, then you go to Hakutaji Temple, which is one of the best hospitals in Kyoto."
When Yang Guangzhi heard this, he smiled honestly, took a puff of dry cigarette and said with a smile: "Teacher Luo, let's go to the hospital, not the temple!" ”
Luo Jinping reacted and smiled: "Oh, it's my fault, that hospital is Kyoto People's Hospital, let's call it Baita Temple."
The place is very close, come into Fuchengmen, go straight east for a mile to the place.
The hospital is one of the best in the city, but the price is expensive, but the medical conditions are very good. ”
Yang Guangzhi heard that the price was expensive, and he hesitated: "That, Mr. Luo, is it very expensive to see a doctor over there?" Is 30 dollars enough? ”
"Enough, sure enough! The price was reduced in July this year, and my son's appendicitis surgery last month was only 10 yuan, and the total hospitalization fee was more than 30 yuan. ”
Luo Jinping explained with a smile.
Hearing that the operation was only 30 yuan, Yang Guangzhi was relieved for a while, such a big illness is only 30 yuan, and Xiaole's disease should not cost much.
A few people walked on the road, looking quite close, but in fact they were really not close.
Three kilometers is there.
Yang Xiaole was worried that he would leak his mouth, so he said to Luo Jinping: "Teacher Luo, you popularize it for my father, now that I am going to a secondary school teacher, does the school subsidize 9 yuan per month?" He doesn't believe it? ”
When Yang Guangzhi heard this, he turned his head and looked over: "Yes, Teacher Luo, is it true?" Also, how are my Xiaomei's grades? Do you have any hope of getting in? ”
And Yang Xiaole next to him glanced at him when he saw this scene.
But Luo Jinping thought about it for a while, and still explained honestly: "Xiaole and his father, Xiaomei I have also brought the class of their class, although I am not the head teacher, but I still know the results." Her grades are not good or bad in her grade, they are in the middle. ”
Yang Guangzhi frowned.
It still doesn't look like there's hope!
However, Luo Jinping's next words made him feel troubled.
"Xiaole and his father, you also know that many families are reluctant to let their children go to junior high school, so many of the good grades have dropped out of school. Xiaomei's grades went to junior high school, she should be stable and average, work hard, there is no problem in the middle and upper class, it depends on whether she works hard or not. Now the secondary school has also been expanding its enrollment and building new teaching buildings, and Xiaomei's achievements are still very promising. ”
Yang Xiaole breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this.
But what Lao Luo said is also true.
Whether you can go to junior high school and high school now is part of your grades, and your family conditions are also part of it.
Many children in rural areas drop out of school in the middle of school, especially girls, who basically stay at home after two years of reading.
In the huge county town, a junior high school is barely full, and most of them are children from the county.
Yang Guangzhi was a little hesitant.
We'll have to go back and measure it.
I thought about it and didn't pick up the topic.
As they spoke, several people came to the huge city gate.
The gates were dark-gray in the dim light, and the bare towers looked a little monotonous.
The wall next to it has been demolished.
At this time, the gate was very lively, and many carriages, cars, three-wheelers, and flat pickers were rushing towards the city.
Yang Guangzhi looked at the sky before dawn and sighed: "It's so lively here!" ”
Luo Jinping smiled and nodded: "Yes, this is a nearby vegetable farmer, send the vegetables to the vegetable market as soon as possible, and then the vegetable market has to be wholesaled to the major streets as soon as possible." ”
When Yang Xiaole heard this, his mind moved.
He had talked to Luo Jinping about the situation here.
Thinking of this, he asked Luo Jinping, "Teacher Luo, where are they going?" ”
"Oh, they! This side is close to Xidan, all of which are sent to Xidan vegetable market, which is the first of the four old vegetable markets in Kyoto, and is one of the top ten vegetable markets in the country, wholesale and retail, and the price is cheaper than that of the street. ”
"Far from here?"
"It's not far, it's about six or seven miles!"
After Luo Jinping finished speaking, he said with a smile: "You guys are sick, if you have anything to buy, you can go there to see, from the hospital, walk forward for about a mile, and you can see it when you go south to Xisi." ”
Yang Xiaole's eyes were rolling there when he heard this.
He had inquired before, and the entrance of Xidan Caishi was the largest market here in the past, so there were still many people gathering nearby in the early morning.
Over time, the largest flea market here has been formed.
There's a lot of good stuff in there!
At any time, the gray area can never be eliminated, but it is just hidden deeper.
When I entered the city gate, I came to the city and came to a large intersection.
"Hey, comrade!"
As soon as I entered the door, someone who checked the car came not far away.
Yang Guangzhi was inexplicable, thinking that he was checking the letter of introduction.
I'm going to take it out in a hurry.
However, after the other party came, he did not ask for a letter of introduction, but explained to him:
"When you enter the city, the manure must be collected in time, and you must not be pulled in the city, otherwise you will be fined if you are caught. If the bucket can't be filled, there's a manure tank over there, you can pour it there! You can also put it here, we'll watch it for you, register it, and you can come back and get it! ”
As he spoke, he pointed to several wooden barrels next to him.
There was already a lot of feces in it.
Hearing this, Yang Guangzhi hurriedly agreed: "Hey, okay, I promise not to pull the ground." ”
Zhang Laohan had already explained before he came, but it costs money to see livestock here, three cents at a time.
Seeing this, Yang Xiaole urged him: "Dad, put it here, I'll be in the hospital in a while, you will go in with me, it won't be troublesome if you put it outside." ”
Yang Guangzhi thought about it for a while when he heard this, and he felt the same.
finally agreed, and followed the other party to the side.
I took out the certificate and went to register, and I got a note, and when I came to get the mule, I wanted both the certificate and the note.
Watch Daddy leave.
Yang Xiaole's eyes rolled for a moment, and he asked Luo Jinping, "Teacher Luo, where do you live?" ”
"Oh, I'm also in the west of the city, but near Liulichang, near Tian'anmen (homophone)."
Yang Xiaole nodded, he knew this place, a famous antique street!
Then I asked for a specific address.
While speaking, Yang Guangzhi walked over.
Luo Jinping smiled and said, "Okay, I won't tell you, I have to go back." You'll be there as long as you go, but it's only past three o'clock, and the hospital will open at eight o'clock. ”
Hearing this, Yang Xiaole knew that he got up early today, and he didn't sleep at all.
No wonder you can't get up.
Yang Guangzhi saw that he was leaving, and smiled enthusiastically: "Hey, okay, I know." We'll be there in a moment. Teacher Naluo, walk slowly. ”
Seeing this, Luo Jinping smiled and said hello and left.
"Okay, let's go, go to the hospital gate and wait"
After the others left, Yang Guangzhi greeted him and took the lead to walk forward.
Seeing this, Yang Xiaole hurriedly followed: "Dad, just now Teacher Luo wanted me to go to his house and give me some study materials, let me pick one, or I'll take a look." You go and wait for me at the entrance of the hospital. ”
"You kid, what should you do if you lose it when it's so big in the city?"
Seeing that Luo Jinping had already walked away, Yang Xiaole was anxious for a while: "Oh, Mr. Luo said, he will send me over in a while, his house is at the entrance of the alley in front, otherwise, he must have come by car during the day!" ”
Yang Guangzhi frowned, then thought about it and said, "Okay, I'll accompany you on a trip." ”
"Don't, someone's daughter-in-law is at home, what are you doing in the middle of the night! I'll go for a while and ask Mr. Luo to send it back to me. I won't tell you, Dad. ”
After saying that, lift your feet and run.
"Teacher Luo, Teacher Luo!"
Seeing him run away, Yang Guangzhi was angry for a while, worried that he was lost, so he hurriedly trotted to follow.
But halfway through the run, he stopped.
Because Luo Jinping stopped when he heard the voice.
