Do you know the "Eight Steps of Broken Intestines"?

"Eight steps to break the intestines" is a poison, medicine for rats. It is also known as "seeing the wind fall".

In the villages of the plains, for a time, this rodent poison was used in the large and small fairs of the towns. In the early years, when the vendors selling rat poison were shirtless and patting their chests in the bazaar, shouting "Eight steps to break the intestines!" - See the wind fall! See the wind falling! At that time, "Eight Steps to Break the Intestines" has become the first choice of rat poison for people in rural areas because of its loud name and catchy advertising slogan.

In those years, in the countryside, the most vigorous vitality was the rat. At midnight every day, the rats "run horses" at the beams of the house or hold a "ball" on the tent almost every day, squeaking, jumping and moving, and mating unscrupulously...... Sometimes the rats get carried away, step on the air coldly, and drop one, which scares the children and screams! I don't bother to talk about stealing food, and there is rat droppings in all the places where food is stored. There are also cases of biting children's ears or noses during the day...... In order to deal with the rat infestation, the villagers have come up with many ways. There are cats, there are mouse traps, and more people choose the "eight-step broken intestine scatter".

Initially, the "Eight Steps of Broken Intestines" was well-known among the people. Although it is not "falling when you see the wind", it is enough to deter rodent infestation. But after a period of time, this kind of pill wrapped in yellow paper into a diamond-shaped packet and dyed with red, green and yellow colors, although the name is loud, its medicinal effect is not as good as before. Although some mice have also died, but since then it will not work, the mice gradually have resistance, eat just staggered and faint for a while, according to the current people's saying, take a "space step" only, and later the common use of "***" in the society is not the same. Although the name of "***" is average, even people and cattle can be killed by medicine!

In fact, it is not "***" that drives the rats to a dead end, but cement. No matter how toxic the rat poison is, it will eventually be recognized by the extremely tenacious rat generation. The widespread use of reinforced concrete is what rats did not expect and feared. Now, generations of rats are in a race against cement. In the cities, the widespread use of high-grade cement has frozen almost all the survival paths of the rats, whose livelihood is only as thin as a pipe running through a power line.

Do rats think? Do rats think? I do not know.

It's like a silent war. In order to survive, the rats in the city first completed the physical mutation in a matter of decades: their powerful genetic signals were transmitted from generation to generation, making their descendants smaller and smaller from generation to generation, and unbelievably completing the physical "pocketization". The rats of the countryside are also following suit...... For them, survival is the first priority. This kind of silent, large and small condensation of life forms can also be said to be earth-shattering. Well, let's not talk about rats.

As I said, in the early years, there was no beam in our hometown, and the "eight-step broken intestine" was known to everyone. But because of the average efficacy, and because of the countless times that the shrewd rats have seen through, they bite through the paper packets, smell but don't eat, scatter red and green pills in the corner of the wall, and are picked up by children and eaten as jelly beans...... It has made people cry out again and again, and it is nicknamed "slow poison". Later, it gradually evolved into a person's nickname.

Many years have passed, and I have never understood why people gave him such a nickname.

He was my primary school teacher.

He was sent back from the city in 1962.

The teacher's surname is Du, and his name is Du Qiuyue. It's a man, but he has a very feminine name. I remember that it was winter, and when he first came, he wore a black four-pocket cadre uniform, a black rod fountain pen in his jacket pocket, a crimson scarf around his neck, and a pair of glasses. When he entered the village, he carried a blanket roll on his shoulder, a leather box in his hand, and his waist was half arched, dragging and procrastinating, and he looked around like a big prawn. It was cold, he was still dripping with clear water and snot, he stopped after walking two steps, took out a snow-white handkerchief, snorted heavily, rubbed his nose, lifted the box grindingly, and walked again.

After entering the village, he chattered like a chicken, and nodded when he saw people. He even nodded at a tree. He nodded at the locust tree in front of the outlet...... Then he muttered, and then walked forward, asking as he went. By the time he touched the brigade headquarters, it was already past noon.

Later, I learned that he was short-sighted. I made a mistake and let it back. It's a matter of style.

After work that day, there were many people in the courtyard of the brigade headquarters, all of whom were watching Du Qiuyue. Du Qiuyue's dress and his "style problem" aroused a strong desire for exploration among the people of Wuliang Village. People are curious to know what kind of style he is guilty of, whether he is a rapist or not. The villagers said: If you are a rapist, you must not be careless. Therefore, under the repeated proposals of the director of public security, the cadres of the brigade collectively decided to let him give an explanation at the mass meeting, so as to facilitate the supervision and transformation in the future.

That night, the gas lights were very bright, and the people were all in order, and even the "old food" for feeding the animals came. The whole village gathered in the brigade headquarters to listen to Du Qiuyue's confession. At this time, several bats suddenly flew in the night sky, and the bats flew under the shadow of the lamp, like dark clouds, and arrows swept over people's heads. The women who had put away the soles of their shoes early exclaimed one by one: Night Ink Tiger! Night Ink Tiger! The men also raised their heads and looked at the "Night Ink Tiger" flying in the night sky. Some people say: weird. At this time, how can there be a "night ink tiger"?

In the countryside of the plains, in my childhood memories, bats were rare. Especially in winter. Only when the weather is abnormal will bats appear. Is it going to snow? I remember that people have always stubbornly believed that bats (commonly known as "night ink tigers") became like this because rats stole salt, and it was the story of "rats and salt". Unlucky. What the countrymen hate most is rats, rats are so terrible, rats steal food. As a result, people have unprovoked hatred for the "Night Ink Tiger". People exchanged glances to each other, and then looked at this "Du glasses" from the city with an inquiring eye, as if this "Du glasses" had been changed by a "night ink tiger".

Du Qiuyue was taken to the center of the venue. He first raised his head and looked at the crowd in amazement. It's about seeing a human face like a wall...... Then, slowly, his head hooked down. At this moment, his face seemed to be timid, and he was much more honest. In the face of many villagers, he first bowed in a proper manner, and then stood bent over without saying a word.

Under the leadership of the security officer, people began to shout slogans again and again...... When the slogans sounded one after another, the people's courage suddenly grew. People are excited, as excited as the New Year. People were on tiptoe, and their bodies were surging forward, and their spittle stars flew in the air, and their fingers almost pointed to his face...... The security director also scolded him again and again: Tell me honestly!

He still doesn't say.

When the slogan was shouted for the third time, the old uncle said, quietly. Be quiet!

There was a sudden silence in the room. All eyes were on him......

Later, I realized that in certain situations, people's language is not all spoken with their mouths, but also with their eyes. In particular, the words that are extreme and hurt the most are spoken with "eyes". In the countryside of the plains, there is such a word, called "smashing". It is a metaphor for people speaking with their eyes, which means "to criticize" or "derogatory". It's like a lot of small stones are born in people's eyes, and people "smash" him with their eyes.

At this moment, in full view of everyone, his head was hooked even lower.

He was silent, he didn't want to say. Later, under the "smashing" of the villagers' eyes, he still said it as a last resort. He said in a hurry: That matter has already been concluded.

Coaxed, the venue blew up. The people shouted at him in unison: What is it? What's the matter? What's the conclusion? Make it clear!

In the sea of spitting stars, under the hoarse rage, he was frightened. He bent down again and said in a trembling voice...... Bad molecules. I'm a bad guy.

Seeing that he is from the city, wearing glasses, and being sven, the women at the beginning still have a little scruples. They privately dragged the corners of Wu Yuhua's clothes again and again, and whispered in her ear: This person is a monkey, why can't he speak? You ask, you ask...... Wu Yuhua hates "style problems" the most. So, she trotted up and gave "Du Glasses" a neck crutch and said: What is the matter? Say.

Du Qiuyue cried, grinning and crying.

There was a commotion in the crowd. Some people say: What are you crying about? Do you still have the face to cry?

Finally, he confessed: I, I fell in love once...... I...... Later, she talked about a military man...... Later, it was found out that she was pregnant......

There was a "buzz" in the crowd, as if a swarm of flies had flown over. His staccato sentences give rise to unlimited imagination. People are talking to each other: Damn, what a rascal!

At this time, the security director stepped forward and asked loudly: Grandma's, you dare to touch the "high-voltage line"? What are you talking about? Why is she pregnant? Whose children ...... Make it clear!

Du Qiuyue was a little nervous, and he stammered: That kid ...... Kids, flow, flow, flow.

At this time, the security director suddenly shouted a slogan: Tell him to compensate!

People were stunned for a moment, and they also shouted: Tell him to pay!

By this time, the venue had become a stack of sparrows. People circled together, nest after litter, in groups of three or five, talking to each other, chattering, and the more they talked, the more chaotic they became. Some asked about the whereabouts of the "child", some asked about the whereabouts of the woman, and some asked him how many times he slept with others...... Eventually, the crowd rushed up and shouted, "Beat him!" Look at him, with a monkey on his face. If you don't move the real thing, he won't say.

The old uncle suddenly shouted: Stop! Stop, stop! Boom! Hoo bang! It's made of rice.

The shouting of the people was stopped by the old uncle. Involving soldiers, he didn't want Du Qiuyue to say in more detail. Just say: Lao Du, let's stop here. You're doing a good makeover.

People still want to hear it, people can't get enough of it, people want him to be more detailed...... People demanded: Let Lao Du finish speaking. Let Lao Du finish.

The old uncle said categorically: That's it. Meeting.

After the meeting, when people looked at Lao Du again, their eyes changed. Everyone in the village knows that Lao Du has a "hat". Lao Du didn't wear a hat that day, and Lao Du was wearing a scarf. But he has a "hat" on his head, an invisible "hat". For many years after that, I always thought that anyone who wore a scarf must have a "hat" on his head.

This winter, the work assigned to Lao Du was to collect and pick urine. The toilets in the village streets are mixed. It is identified by the waistband of the trousers that is attached to the wall. At first, Lao Du didn't know the "trouser belt recognition method", and went into the toilet with a urine bucket, and with a "wow" sound, he withdrew in a panic and said in fright: I'm sorry. I'm sorry. Later, someone questioned him: You didn't mean it, did you? He was frightened and hurriedly said, "No." Not really. Then people told him, "Look at the wall." If the wall is covered with a red trouser belt or a silk thread knitted with tassels, it is a "woman"; If it's a rope, or a belt of blue, gray, or black cloth, or a belt, it's a "man". Just look at it from a distance. But Lao Du has never figured out the difference between "male" and "female". So every time he went to the toilet, he would shout from afar: Is there anyone?

On the first day of picking urine, Lao Du prepared a big mask for himself. Lao Du is the only person in the village who wears a mask to pick urine. He walked down the village street with a urine bucket, and everyone who saw him said, "Lao Du, what are you doing with a cow cage mouth?" He said solemnly: Don't do anything. I'm not afraid of getting dirty, I have stomach pain. Later, when he walked to the vegetable field with the burden of urine, someone asked: Lao Du, what are you doing with a cow cage mouth? Again, he explained: Nothing. I'm not afraid of getting dirty, I have stomach pain. Just walked all the way, asked all the way, and Lao Du replied respectfully every time. Urine is delivered to the vegetable patch, four times a day. After entering the vegetable field, the women working in the vegetable field will ask: Lao Du, what are you doing with a cow cage mouth? He explained again and again: don't do anything. I'm not afraid of getting dirty, I have stomach pain. I'm really not...... People just laughed. At the end of the day, he consciously took off the mask covering his mouth.

After the New Year, in March and April, the spring rains heavily, and the village road is soaked with rainwater, and it is full of mud. The ruts made by the frame car are ditch by ditch, and the footprints of people are littered with nests, and they are slippery when they walk. When we were running barefoot in the muddy water, Lao Du, who was assigned to pick urine, deliberately changed into a pair of rubber-soled shoes and wore socks. When the people in the village saw this, they sighed and said, "Who are the people of the city?"

When the security director saw him, he stretched out his hand and said, "Lao Du, come here, come here." Lao Du carried the burden of urine and passed. The security officer said: Put it down. Hold on to the tree. Lao Du put down the urine burden and looked at the tree, the weather was wet, there were insects on the locust tree, black and numb, he was so disgusted that he retched, but he still helped. The security director said: Lao Du, you take off your shoes. I'll give you a pair of leather boots. Lao Du took off one of his shoes and looked at the director. The security director said: Take it off, and take off your socks. Lao Du held the tree with his hand, one foot of the golden rooster was independent, and he took off his socks, and then looked at the director. The security director said: Step on the ground. Lao Du hesitated for a moment, and then stepped barefoot in the mud pit. The security officer said: That one. So, both shoes and socks were taken off. The security officer pointed to his leg and said, "The trouser leg, and the trouser leg, are flattened." Lao Du put the pants "flat" (in the plain, "flat" means folded). The security director said: Pick it up. Lao Du re-picked up the burden of urine. The security officer said: Lisuo, right? Lao Du stepped on the mud with his two feet "snorting and snorting", and pulled out the mud on his legs. Lao Du said: Lisuo. Lisso. The security officer said: Badi, right? It's not slippery, is it? That's right. It's muddy, and it's a waste of shoes. Go ahead. Lao Du held shoes and socks in one hand and a urine bucket on the other, nodded and said as he walked: Okay. That's good.

Summer is here. When harvesting wheat, Lao Du wears a new straw hat and a white shirt. The buttons at the neckline and cuffs are tightly fastened. When he got to the field, the people were looking at him. Someone said: Lao Du, are you a string of relatives? He was already able to understand the words of the villagers, and said: No. I don't have any relatives here. People laughed. Lao Du stood there very embarrassed. The security director said: Lao Du, since you don't string relatives, what are you doing so strictly, take it off. And they all said, "That Mai Man'er has been rotten for you all day." Take it off, take it off, take it off quickly. Lao Du saw that most of the men were bare-backed, hesitated for a moment, and then took off. took off his shirt and vest, and everyone screamed, only to see the red bumps on his spine, all of which were bitten by mosquitoes. The security director walked over, first stepped on the wheat stubble on the ground with his feet, and then squatted down and "faced" the soil on the ground with his hands. Say, "Do you know how to roll on a donkey?" Old Du was stunned. The security officer said: You can't roll a donkey? Everyone croaked and laughed. The security officer gave a demonstration on the spot. So, in the midst of laughter, Lao Du lay down on the ground and followed to learn "donkey rolling". The security director said: Rough. It's rough and rough. Lao Du was very obedient and serious, he rolled on the ground one after another, left and right, left rough, right rough...... Everyone laughed so hard that they couldn't straighten their waists. The security officer asked: Is it still itchy? Lao Du blushed and said: It's not itchy. No more itching.

The director of public security said heroically: There is medicine in the soil.

By the second year, Lao Du was able to wear big pants and squat bareback in the restaurant on the village street to eat. He even learned to catch lice in the sun. He squatted at the threshold of the chimney room, and in the warm sun, he "clucked, clucked" to pick up the choppers one by one. Outside the ondol room, Lao Du also learned to crush the freshly roasted tobacco leaves, wrap the cigarettes in old newspapers and smoke, but he didn't learn it, and he kept coughing. He just learned one sentence: the smoke is too strong. (In the countryside, "zhuang" means choking and spicy throat.) Soon after, Lao Du even learned to "raise the field", and he recited the mantra seriously while Yang: Yang out a line, and a large piece of ...... People laughed again.

After autumn, when he was cutting the reeds in the reeds, Lao Du could already talk and laugh with the women. The reed leaves after autumn are like blades, and they accidentally cut a blood mark on their bodies. While teaching him to cut reeds, the women asked him: Lao Du, that girl is your student, right? Lao Duxian still squirmed and said: No. And again...... Be. Sort of. Graduated. The women said, "Tell me, how do you seduce people?" Lao Du said: Yes, it was she who "that" me first. The women said, "No, right?" A girl...... Let's talk about it. Lao Du said: One day, while walking, she suddenly peeled a piece of candy and stuffed it in my mouth...... The women said, "Is it sweet?" He said, "Sweet." The women asked: What happened later? Can't hold it? He said in a loud voice: No. No. Then he explained: I watched a Soviet movie with her, and she handed her hand to my palm...... The women asked: "Don't hold it yet?" He said, "Shake, shake." The women asked: Is it soft? Picking at someone's palm, right? He said, "No." Not really. Khan, I'm sweating. The women said: Why did you get pregnant so carelessly? Old Dunono: "Safe period". She said it was ...... "safe period." The women asked in unison: What is the "safe period"? He said, "I, and I...... It's hard to say. The women asked again and again: Then why did people sue them? Lao Du sighed, shook his head and said: Later, I don't know, she talked about another ...... Women, I don't understand it. The women laughed and said, "Tell me, how many women have you "fought"? Lao Du also smiled, smiled bitterly, and said: No. That's it. The women all felt sorry for him, saying: You said you, just "fight" a woman, and you also got a "hat", is it a loss? In the midst of laughter, Lao Du quickly got the understanding of the women. Women have always sympathized with the weak. One by one, they vied to teach him how to cut reeds without hurting his hands. Said one by one: Lao Du, you are really unlucky.

Lao Du is wearing a "hat", and Lao Du is very low-key. That's exactly what the women in the village like. They first taught him how to cook, and then they taught him how to break the rice and weave the table. He even taught him to stand on a rolling stone and grind a sliver. Lao Du's water snake waist was half-bent, standing on the stone stone and always unable to maintain his balance, and fell a lot. Lao Du's glasses frame was broken and wrapped with thread, which made people look very kind...... In the village, Lao Du's every move will make women laugh, and women often laugh so much that they can't straighten their waists.

Later, people in the village said that Lao Du made rapid progress. Lao Du first tanned, and he was also frost-resistant. That year, after cutting the reeds in the dangli, when the village was "tied", under the influence of everyone, Lao Du actually drank a bowl of wine and got drunk.

"Tie the guys" is an annual celebration of Xiwoer, and this is the case in every village. Generally, when the reeds are cut, the public will advance some money (this money will be shared and deducted by each family when the reed is handed over), buy a pork, and then produce some cabbage, vermicelli, tofu and the like from the village, build a stove on the spot in the reeds that have been cut, and stew it in a large pot; Buy a few jars of cheap sweet potato dry wine, light a bonfire, and the whole village will come to have a good time...... It's almost a men's holiday. The men in the village played "top cow" after drinking, one-on-one, head to head, to see who defeated whom, and the winner was rewarded: the good drinker (extra) was awarded three bowls of wine; Good Meat Winner (extra) will be awarded three bowls of pork stewed vermicelli. On that day, I saw the men screaming and making noise, and the winner drank in a big bowl...... Lao Du first watched from the sidelines. The sweet potato dry wine was strong, and he had already drunk a bowl under the pinch of everyone, and he was a little drunk, so he smirked vigorously. At this time, someone shouted: Lao Du, come up, top one! Let Lao Du top one!

Lao Du was stunned at first, waved his hand and said: No, I, no...... However, everyone rushed up and pushed him out. No one expected that when Lao Du stood in front of the bonfire, he was still twisting and pushing at first, and suddenly he was alive, he supported his waist with his left hand, straightened his waist, shook his hair, raised his neck, blushed his face, closed his eyes, and recited the poem aloud with an "ah" sound: Emperor Gaoyang's Miao descendants, and my emperor said Boyong. Seti Zhen is in Meng Xi, but Geng Yin and I surrender. Huang Lan Yu Chu Xi, Zhao Xi Yu to the name. The name is said to be regular, and the word is said to be Lingjun. I not only have this inner beauty, but also focus on cultivation......

At this moment, everyone was stupid. The men looked at each other one by one and asked: Mother, what is he "west" (xi)? What's in the white sun? Someone shook his head and said, "Obediently, the university asks!" Lao Du University asked! Some said: Yes, Lao Du is deeply knowledgeable. It's not simple, it's not easy...... Only the security director said: Ball, ball mile knowledge.

Down, Lao Du's recitation became louder and louder. I saw him raise his arms from time to time, dancing, gesturing, shaking his head, and singing in a subdued voice: "...... The long wife rested to cover up the tears and mourn the difficulties of the people's livelihood. Although Yu is good at repairing his concubine to be restrained, he talks about the dynasty and replaces it. Not only for the rest of the Hui Xi, but also for the Shen Zhi to take over. I also have the good heart of the rest, although I have not regretted it even though I have died nine times......"

yes, people were staring at him with wide eyes, all stupid. People don't understand, people don't know what he's doing in the "sun". People just speculate: this is "learning", university asks! The villagers were infected by his emotions and applauded one by one. However, just as people were applauding in unison, Lao Du suddenly stopped. He stood stunned for a moment, and then cried "wow". A five-foot man lay flat on the ground and cried loudly...... People look at each other and say, "What's going on?" At this time, the women rushed up and said one after another: drunk. Lao Du was drunk. Carry him back. So, people carried Lao Du on their shoulders and carried them back to the village.

In the winter of this year, more and more people went to Lao Duyankang's house. As soon as people are idle, they say: Let's go, find Lao Du to "spray the air". As a result, the smoke kang house where Lao Du lived became a place for the men to "spray the air". In the plains, "spewing out the sky" means gossip. This is called "Qing Yi" or "exchange" at the top, and it is "hollow out" among the people. The world is from south to north, the peddler is a pawn, the emperor is old, wherever he talks, it is where he is. Of course, there is also a connotation of long-term knowledge. People are familiar with each other, familiar with each other, and when they come, they squat in the corner of the house and on the threshold, and listen to Lao Du's "spraying air".

At this time, people have forgotten Lao Du's "hat", and Lao Du himself seems to have forgotten that he still wears a "hat" on his head. At night, Lao Du's chimney house is lively. Lao Du said...... I am going to write a letter to the Central Committee. It's time, I think Taiwan can be liberated. People stared at him with wide eyes. Lao Du said: Do you know? Ngo Dinh Diem, Ngo Dinh Diem of Vietnam was killed! At this time, someone cautiously asked: What is this Wu Tingyan, what is he doing? Someone immediately said: You know a ball! Listen to Lao Du. Lao Du said: This, Ngo Dinh Diem, is the president of Vietnam...... And that's not the most important thing. And one more news, great news. Did you know? Something is wrong with the United States, Kennedy has been stabbed! Another person asks: Who was Kennedy? Someone immediately stopped: Who do you care about Kennedy? Listen to Lao Du...... Lao Du said: President, President of the United States. This Kennedy, who was also the youngest president in the history of the United States, was only thirty-six years old, died, was stabbed. Black Americans are also constantly taking to the streets to demonstrate. So I said, it's time.

During the day, Lao Du still went to pick urine. Someone asked while tying his belt: Lao Du, did you write that letter, a letter to the Central Committee? At this time, Lao Du was about to realize his "hat", and said vaguely: I am thinking about it. I'll have to think about it. The man said, "Yes, that is." It's not a trivial matter for you to ask such a university question and give a book to the Central Committee...... Lao Du said: That's right. When I met someone on the road, someone greeted me and said, "Lao Du, you can have an early meal at night, and then tell me about the United States." America, what kind of "ding" is that...... Lao Du said: Martin, Martin Luther King, Jr., is a black leader......

One day, when Lao Du finished picking urine and went to the brigade headquarters to read the newspaper (there is a copy of "People's Daily" in the brigade headquarters), the old uncle saw Lao Du and said: Lao Du, I heard that you are going to write a letter to the Central Committee? Lao Du was stunned and said: I, I mean, what is that, liberate Taiwan...... The old uncle glared at him, took off his hat, touched his freshly shaved head, bald, and said nothing. Lao Du's face changed, and he nodded again and again and said: I know. I know.

This winter, when it snowed, the women of Wuliang Village studied one by one, and suddenly they all wrapped up crimson scarves. Those young girls who had relatives in the city also specially asked someone to bring back a very bright rose-red scarf from the city. During the Chinese New Year, there was a red walk in the village street, and a red ...... dangling on the stone stone It's festive. Only Lao Du no longer wears scarves. He was afraid that the villagers would talk about him. Lao Du's scarf was tied around his waist, and he said it was warmer.

In the third year, because of his good performance, Lao Du was sent to teach in the village primary school.

Lao Du is probably very willing to be a teacher. Somehow, Lao Du suddenly became proud. He went to the town to get a haircut, combed it in a parted style, and put on some hair oil, which looked bright. Lao Du once again changed into his four-pocket cadre uniform, and changed a pair of leather shoes on his feet, which had been kept in the box, or double and three, and he walked at the gate of the school with a click, leading many children to see his feet. Lao Du helped his glasses and said, "Students, ...... early We all looked at him in amazement, as if we were stupid for a moment, and we were in awe.

When the security director met Lao Du at the school gate, he said "yo", his eyes glared as if they were about to fly out, and he said: Lao Du, have the ants gone up the tree? Still wearing a piga? Spirited.

Lao Du was embarrassed, and hurriedly explained: Director, teach the students, that ...... You have to pay attention to your appearance.

The security director looked at him and said, "Huh? A table? What's the table?

Lao Du said solemnly: As a teacher, I should be neat and tidy.

The security director put his hand behind his back, snorted in his nose, and said: Okay, a good table. You are a man, a watch, then ...... A table. Also, aren't you going to book? When the time comes, Lao Cai said that he will be tried.

Old Du was dumb.

At that time, Miao Guoan, the principal of the primary school, was also Wuliang's son-in-law. When he saw Lao Du for the first time in the principal's office, he was a little in a hurry. He first subconsciously brushed down his "flattened" trouser legs, and then put one foot on the chair on the ground and straightened his waist...... Suddenly, he felt that something was wrong, coughed solemnly, and said, "Lao Du, come in."

When Mr. Du came out of the principal's office, he was not so vigorous. At this time, he realized that he was just a temporary substitute teacher. It is said that Principal Miao also specially ordered him and said: Lao Du, you have to pay attention to the fact that you are wearing a "hat". Lao Du said in a panic: I know. I know. He walked out of the principal's office like a deflated ball with two elementary school textbooks in his pocket. On campus, he shook his head all the way, and said dissatisfiedly and mutteringly: I graduated from college and asked me to teach the third grade of primary school? It's too pediatric, right?!

However, although he was only allowed to teach the third grade of primary school, he was still very happy. That day, when he stood on the podium, his head was suddenly raised, and his posture was extremely dashing! His head tilted upward, picked up chalk, and wrote three big characters on the blackboard: Du Qiuyue. After that, he pointed to the words on the blackboard with chalk and said aloud: Students, do you know these three words? Du, autumn, month. This is my name, and my name is Du Qiuyue. It is the "moon" in the poem "A Dream of Red Mansions" "A round of bright moon is held, and all the surnames in the world look up"! As he spoke, he drew two chalk marks heavily under his name!

Next, he wrote two lines of poetry on the blackboard: Empty and talented, I have never opened my arms in my life! After writing, he patted the end of the chalk on his hand, cleared his throat, and asked aloud: Do you know whose poem this is? - Li Yishan, that is, Li Shangyin.

After speaking, he stood on the podium, looking down, stunned......

We looked at him dumbly, almost silly-on-silly. He hesitated for a moment, then suddenly said, "Oh, you guys, third grade, huh?" Don't understand, do you? You, this, this, this, this, are still young...... Later, it will be understood later. Now, class. Today, today...... He flipped through his elementary school textbook.

We shouted in unison: Kitten fishing!

He said, "Then the kitten fishes."

Since then, Du Qiuyue has become our teacher in the second class of the third grade. We all call him "Du Glasses" in private. Du Glasses taught us Chinese, arithmetic, art, music and physical education. During class, Du Glasses likes to use chalk heads to "roll call". In class, if a student dozed off, he would break a small piece of chalk head, hold the chalk head in front of the spectacle lens, shake it, and shoot it out with an aiming posture. But he always misses the head of the chalk and does it again...... If you don't smoke for a while, you will shoot on the door of your head, which will cause the students to laugh!

Du glasses class is different from other teachers. From time to time, he would change the way he conducts his lessons. Once, after the bell rang, he took our whole class to the school playground and gave a lecture on arithmetic.

That morning, he tied a small blackboard to the beam of the basketball hoop and told us to line up on the playground, and then he suddenly ran away...... We just stood in line on the playground, not knowing what he was going to do. A student asked: Isn't this an arithmetic class? Some said: changed sports.

After a while, he hurried around the back of the playground and brought a broken bicycle, which he had borrowed from his old uncle. He stuck the car in front of us and asked loudly: "Students, what is this?"

We shouted: Donkey! (Back then, we called bicycles "donkeys.") After school, we often stand on the curb and shout in unison: Ride a donkey, wear a watch, Lao Tzu won't fuck you and eat dicks! ）

He said: This is called a bicycle, a "permanent brand" bicycle made in Shanghai. Do you know where Shanghai is?

We said out loud: I don't know.

So, he drew a map of China with chalk on a small blackboard and marked the location of Shanghai on the map...... Then he told us about Shanghai, and he said: Shanghai is a big city...... Next, he talked about the "permanent brand" bicycle made in Shanghai from "Shanghai", and then began to talk about the structure and principle of the bicycle, and the relationship between the big gear and the small gear...... As he spoke, the bell rang, and the other classes were gone. The whole school gathered around to watch him lecture alone.

Seeing so many students gathered around to listen to his class, Du Glasses must have been very excited. He not only explained to us with a smile on his eyebrows, but also squatted down himself and gave us a demonstration on the spot. Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, he crouched down and stood up again, whirring and stirring the pedals of the bicycle to make the wheels spin rapidly, and writing the ratio of the speed of the big gear to the small pinion on the small blackboard......

Honestly, this lesson is so fresh! The students were very excited. Then he said, "Who wants to come up and try it?" So, the whole class raised their hands, and they all jumped to try. He gave the name one by one, and allowed each of the students in our class to go up and twist it in a circle, and squat down to carefully observe the rotation of the pinion and the pinion, to calculate the change in the speed of the pinion and the pinion...... At that time, there were very few bicycles, and we looked at this bicycle and wanted to go up and ride it. At our insistence, he said, "Okay, let's make an exception." I'll make an exception for you. So, he shouted our names one by one, and he held the back frame and asked each of us to go forward and learn to ride a lap. At that time, there was laughter in the playground, and the students shouted: crooked, crooked! The donkey is crooked...... Before the class was finished, the bike broke when it was crooked to the left and turned to the right...... That afternoon, when it was time for a self-study class, he hurriedly pushed him to the town to repair, and it is said that he was caught and scolded by his old uncle.

For a while, his classmates quickly liked him because of his good class. He has almost become an example for us to follow. We learn to walk with his bare feet, learn the posture of his head up, raise his head, and shake it again...... But no one can learn it. After class, we even learned how to "shoot" each other with chalk heads, but no one could shoot like him because we didn't have "glasses".

In PE class, he likes to lead us to play basketball. On that simple court, Mr. Du's shooting movements were very elegant. His three-step layup is like performing acrobatics, he runs three steps with "oh, oh, oh", and then flies up to the railing, his right hand is raised high, just like a goose flying, his wrist flips, and he accurately dunks the basketball in the basket, which makes us stunned!

Later, Mr. Du's head became higher and higher. When he saw Principal Miao, he didn't nod anymore, so he walked over with his textbook in his hand, and even Principal Miao looked at him in surprise. In the winter, he put on his red scarf again. Every time one end of the scarf falls off, the flick of the neck is simply amazing! For a few days, he always walked with something in his mouth, as if he had a spring under his feet, and walked with a flick of it. Sometimes he would jump or slide like a three-step layup on the basketball court...... You can see how happy he is in his heart!

However, Du Glasses almost made a mistake and made a mistake in the relationship between men and women. In the whispers of the teachers, we know that in our school, there is a senior girl nicknamed "Pin" who secretly likes him. It is said that this girl from the neighboring village, known as the "pin", always likes to pin a big pin on her chest. That "pin" is bright, not only has become her ornament but also her nickname. For a while, she always dangled in front of our classroom, and after class, she chased after Du glasses and asked questions, saying, "Teacher Du, you wait...... Later, she sneaked out of the house early every day and secretly put a hard-boiled egg on the lectern on Teacher Du's podium. When there were enough eggs in the drawer of the lectern, Du Glasses found out...... So he gave us a lesson about eggs, about a great foreign painter who painted eggs. He said that there was a man named "Dadaqi" in foreign countries, who started by painting eggs and eventually became a world-famous painter...... (In my childhood memories, he did say "Dadaqi", and we remember this "Dadaqi.") But it took many years for me to see in a book that the person he was talking about was not actually called "Da Da Daci", but Da Vinci. I remember that in the second half of that class, our whole class drew eggs, and even though it was like a gourd, none of us drew like eggs. This doomed us to not become painters. Because we rarely eat eggs, that's the "bank".

Gradually, I noticed that some eyes appeared around Mr. Du, like black ants. A teacher privately reminded us that he was wearing a "hat" because he was far away from him. But there are still students who approach him, and we all like him.

It is said that on a starless night, the female classmate nicknamed "Pin" was hiding behind a low wall at the twist of the grade teaching and research room, and suddenly stopped him and asked: "Teacher Du, have you eaten the eggs?" Teacher Du stood there in a daze and said, "Eggs? "Pin" says: eggs. He said, "Oh, oh." That's how it goes. I thought it was ...... Isn't that okay? She said: "I have three hens in my house, one is a reed flower, one is a black twee, and one is a production chicken. Sometimes two laid eggs, sometimes three laid eggs, and when I got up early, I picked up the eggs alone, and my family didn't know. My mother said that eggs replenish qi and blood...... He said, "Oh." Oh. Thank you. He took two steps forward, but stood still, and said, "Don't do this from now on." That's not good...... However, the "pin" ran out from behind the wall, and she hugged him at once...... Teacher Du must have been frightened, he closed his eyes and muttered: Don't, don't, I've made mistakes, I've made mistakes, I've made mistakes. The "pin" said: I am willing. I do. I do. Teacher Du said: Don't, don't, don't...... "pin" said: you touch, you touch, you touch...... Du glasses were a little uncontrollable, and he was trembling; The "pin" was also as soft as a puddle of mud, hanging from his neck, and both of them shook like chaff...... It is said that when he was about to have an accident, it was Principal Miao's cough that saved him. Principal Miao came out of nowhere, coughed loudly, and scared the "pin" away.

That night, Principal Miao called Du Glasses to the principal's office and beat him severely. Du glasses were scared and cried, a handful of snot and tears...... Later, Principal Miao told people that he had already noticed that the two of them were very abnormal and had been staring at them...... It was Principal Miao who saved Du Glasses. Otherwise, the "pin" family is a big surname in the neighboring village, and the population of his own family is large, if his family knows about it, they will beat him away.

Shortly thereafter, Principal Miao spoke to "Pin" again. Since then, the "pin" has never been in school again, and she is married...... When Du Glasses saw Principal Miao again, he would nod silently to show his awe.

From then on, Lao Miao, our principal Miao coughed louder. He finally regained his self-esteem.

In the countryside, something happens suddenly.

We call it "Escape the first day of junior high school, but can't escape the fifteenth". This is a spiritual panic hidden in the bottom of my heart, with a long historical origin, and for an inexplicable reason. It's like there is a faint thunder in the distance, but the wind is still beautiful and the sun is shining. But suddenly the wind became fishy and blew. By the time the people were stunned, it was already pouring rain.

I remember that in the summer of 1966, Mr. Du was reciting to us in class, "The Yellow River flows into the sea...... He opened his arms, his eyes first opened, and then closed slightly, making a magnificent gesture, as if he had turned into the Yellow River, rushing down...... Suddenly, he was not allowed to walk out of the "Yellow River", and when he opened his eyes, a group of students from the town's middle school rushed in screaming, and detained him with a bucket of paste!

For a while, the class was very quiet, only Mr. Du was still standing there "magnificently", the paste on his body was flowing from head to toe from top to bottom, the paste was mixed with noodles, with a moldy beany smell. He was covered with paste, and his glasses were also covered with paste, and the white flowers became a "Yellow River...... The "big" character made for chanting the "Yellow River" was still stretching, and the paste was dripping on the ground with a flat shoulder length of the word "one", and Mr. Du suddenly became an old hen that had just been fished out of the soup pot! Immediately afterwards, a tall papier-mâché hat slammed into his head again, and the black letters with a red cross were written on it: Bad Guy Du Qiuyue!

Teacher Du cried, fluttering, like a child. He cried so sadly that he completely lost the dignity of a teacher...... He cried and said, "I can't see." Students, I can't see ......

Mr. Du has put on a real "hat". The papier-mâché hat buttoned up his glasses. Teacher Du was wearing a top hat for a senior student who was about to graduate from the town's middle school. The reason why the students in the town dared to throw paste on the teacher's head was because one of them wore a "red armband".

Among the students who came from the town's middle school, the leader was the son of the security director, the eldest name Wu Xiaotun, nicknamed Butun (he changed his name to Wu Hongwei for a while). Wu Xiaotun put the red armband on his arm up, stood on the podium vividly, pressed Teacher Du's neck with one hand, waved the other hand, and said loudly: Classmates, he was found out, don't listen to him poison again!

We are still looking stupidly, not knowing what kind of "dream" this is......

At this time, the loudspeaker in the brigade headquarters suddenly sounded. The voice was high-pitched and bright, like a big bird suddenly flying from outside the sky, a singing bird, which made people excited, excited and nervous. In my original impression, the butt dun is the butt mound, the fart dun reminds me of sweet potatoes, and the most closely related to the fart dun should be the sweet potato, and the fart dun puts more sweet potato farts than anyone else. However, as soon as he put on this "red armband", he suddenly seemed to be a different person, even the tone of his speech changed, and he almost became a leader!

For a while, the old hen became a duck, and the butt became a "leader". In the sound of majestic and high-pitched music, the butt dun led people to bring in two old landlords, four rich peasants (four men and two women, all sixty or seventy years old), plus Du glasses, a total of seven people. Seven men in tall hats, strung together with ropes, lined up on the playground with trepidation. From time to time, the butt kicked their butts and shouted: One-two-one, one-two-one, let's go...... Almost everyone is following Buttocks' orders. That was actually listening to the orders of the "red armband". Just because he wore a "red armband" on his arm, he could point the heads of the old people one by one with a stick and say, "You." You. And you. Stand up!

At this point, we became a bunch of onlookers. We tried not to look at the butt, we used to despise him. But we can't help but look at him now, he wears a "red armband" on his arm. All of us stared at the "red armband" on the butt arm. We are all fascinated by the "red armbands" one by one! It seems to have infinite magic power, making everyone who wears it popular to rush to the bull! We all long to get this "red armband", as long as we can wear this "red armband", let us do anything, even death! If possible, I would love to find a piece of red cloth and sew myself a "red armband" to wear. But I don't dare, that thing is too sacred! So, we consciously and voluntarily became followers of the butt. We chanted slogans and trotted behind the butts, and we followed not the butts, but the "red armbands".

…… Later, we also started kicking the old men's ass, kicking the teacher's ass, secretly.

Although we used to follow Du Glasses fanatically, he was "knocked down". A person who has been "knocked down" is no longer respectable. We were all watching his jokes, and we thought he was ridiculous, covered in paste, and his tall paper hat covered half of his face. He was pitifully dragged by the collar by the neck, kicked to the ground, and knelt in the middle of the playground like a dizzy chicken...... It's a real chaff bun!

Immediately afterwards, under the leadership of Fudun, more than a dozen students from the town's middle school set up Lao Du and asked him to make a "jet" performatively. At that time, we didn't know what a "jet" was, but under the command of the butt, Du Glasses demonstrated it on the spot, allowing us to see the shape of the "jet". A student wearing a "red armband" puts his arms up, lifts them back vigorously, bends his waist at 90 degrees, rushes his head forward, and pulls his hair up, which is called "jet style...... Later, the whole village came to see the "jet".

The playground was full of people. So, the fart dun raised his arms again and again and shouted: Down with Du glasses!

People shouted again and again: Down with Du glasses!

Butt shouted: If Du glasses don't surrender, let him perish!

We also shouted: If Du glasses does not surrender, let him perish!

The butt dun was supposed to bring Lao Du to the town to parade through the streets, but was stopped by the old uncle who came in a hurry.

The old uncle said: I can't go, Lao Du will be delegated and reformed, and he will be governed by the brigade.

Butt said: You are harboring bad elements!

The old uncle scolded in the local dialect: Let your mother's stinky bullshit! When Lao Tzu was revolutionary, you were still in your mother's crotch.

Butt said: You dare to scold?

The old uncle said: It is light to scold you. The brigade is a first-class organization, how old are you? Put people down. Militia assembled!

…… Butt was younger, and he was shocked by the old uncle's momentum. At this time, the security director stepped forward and said: Dun'er, listen to your uncle.

That night, Lao Du squatted on the river to wash the paste on his body, and he cried while washing, crying quietly, like a dog baby who had been choked by someone's neck...... Crying and crying, he plunged headlong into the river. It just so happened that the old uncle was afraid that Lao Du Xun would be short-sighted, so he sent a militia to watch him secretly. As soon as the people shouted, the people of the village ran over and fished him up.

Lao Du cried and explained: I didn't mean it. I will not cut myself off from the people, I will slip down my foot. It's true.

At this moment, the women in the village felt sorry for him again, so they hurriedly brought a few bundles of straw from the field and used the straw fire to ward him off the cold......

In the evening, the old uncle came to the smoke kang house. He squatted at the threshold and said to Lao Du: Lao Du, after teaching for two days, you still cut your head and wear a leather shoe, what do you say you burn? Lao Du bent down and said, "Yes." I was wrong. I know wrong. The old uncle said: Don't think elsewhere, just transform yourself. With me, no one dares to attack you. Lao Du said with tears: Don't worry, I will definitely transform and be reborn. The old uncle said: Look at what you said, can blood be exchanged, can bones be exchanged? Lao Du promised: Don't worry, I can. I will definitely be reborn and become a new person. The old uncle sighed and comforted him: You should also become a family. Hurry up Ming'er, I'll tell you one. Lao Du said with a bitter face: I am like this, who wants me?

On the third day, the commune held a criticism meeting, and Lao Du was escorted to the commune again. It is said that Lao Du wore a high paper hat and knelt on the platform for a whole day...... If it weren't for the old uncle, he wouldn't have come back.

Three days later, Lao Du went back to the village to pick up urine. He wore a broken straw hat that scared the old eagle, wore trousers, walked barefoot, carried a burden of urine along the wall, trembled, and nodded when he saw people. In front of the toilet door in the village street, he cautiously asked: Yes, is there anyone?

At this time, the security director came out with his pants up, saw that it was him, and shouted: Lao Du.

Lao Du bent down and said, "Yes."

The security director shouted again: Lao Du.

He said, "Yes."

The security director said: Be louder.

He said, "Yes!"

In 1969, Lao Du got married, married to a widow.

This widow was introduced by my old uncle. The widow's surname is Liu, from Wangjiazhuang, with the nickname Liu Huan and the big name Liu Yucui. Liu Yucui looks quite good, just a hanging eye, with higher cheekbones, according to the plains and villages, "gram" man. Her man, Wang Songqiu, died in the coal mine three months ago.

At that time, although there were often dead people in the coal mines, there were still people vying to go because of the high wages. According to the regulations, workers who die on the coal mine can receive a pension of 300 yuan. Even more attractive, it is also possible to have an immediate family member take over. It is said that at the funeral, Liu Yucui actually fought with her mother-in-law's family. In order to fight for a piece of paper, that is a "recruitment form", this is the treatment. The widow Liu Yucui and her brother-in-law fought for this "treatment" of replacing the dead, and the in-laws made a mess with the in-laws and became a pot of porridge!

The Wang family hated her, saying that she was a nemesis, and a man was a nuisance. But Liu Yucui is not interested, probably she wants to leave the village and go to the mine to take over the men's class (women do not go down the mine when they go to the mine, at most they go to watch the pounds, or work as a cook in the canteen, which is a good job), and become a worker. So it attracted the opposition of the Wang family. Although Liu Yucui is strong, she is in her mother-in-law's village after all, the family surnamed Wang is powerful, and the widow is weak. Not only did the "recruitment form" not get it, but Liu Yucui was also beaten by her mother-in-law's family and kicked out of the house...... Liu Yucui couldn't stay in the village anymore, so she went to the commune to complain.

The old uncle met the widow who had gone to complain at a meeting in the commune. That day, she wore a white moon cloth shirt and a white filial piety rope on her head...... The old uncle saw her crying with snot and tears, which was very pitiful. After talking about it, he brought her back to the village.

Then he hurriedly sent someone to call Lao Du. At that time, Lao Du was picking urine in the vegetable field......

The two met at the brigade headquarters. The old uncle's original intention was to let Lao Du change his clothes and go to meet people again. Lao Du insisted on refusing, and put down the burden of urine. Entering the door, Lao Du half-bent over and stood there stupidly. The woman said, "Sit down." Lao Du raised his head and looked at the woman. After he sat down, Lao Du said: I have to make it clear, I have made mistakes. She said, "I know." Lao Du said: I'm wearing a hat. She said, "I know." Lao Du said: Now I don't teach in the school anymore, I pick urine in the village...... She said, "I know." So, Lao Du didn't say anything anymore.

Liu Yucui is a very assertive woman. She has always longed for the life of city people and likes cultured people. The two villages are three miles apart, and Liu Yucui has seen him playing basketball on the playground and walking on the campus in leather shoes. The man left, remarried from a "coal black" to a "white mirror", Liu Yucui was full of willingness. She said: Your situation has been told by the branch secretary, and I don't dislike you. I have one request, though. Lao Du said: You say. Liu Yucui said: Don't think nonsense, live a good life.

At that time, Lao Du felt that he was already like this, what else to choose? also acquiesced in this family business. So, under the old uncle's Zhang Luo, he chose a date, opened up the two adjacent abandoned cigarette kang houses, brushed them with white lime again, pasted the red word "Xi", and set up a table of banquets, even if he was married.

On the wedding night, when sleeping at night, the woman is very obedient and cooperative. Lao Du asked her to shout whatever she wanted, and she felt that this was "culture". The villagers who listened to the house were very surprised, outside the smoke kang house, everyone heard that Liu Yucui had been "plowing" all night, and the two of them shouted one after another: plow, plow, plow, plow......

The next day, someone joked: Yucui, how many calves have you led? Just ploughed all night?

Liu Yucui's face turned red all of a sudden.

After a few days, through the mouths of the women, the village understood what happened to the two of them at night. In the beginning, when the woman slept at night, she was still obedient, and when the two made love, they called whatever they wanted. When he was excited, Lao Du shouted out a word: "li". She felt fresh, cheerful, and shouted along with the sound: plow, plow, plow, plow! Plow quickly! Lao Du said: It's not this...... She asked him which one he was? Lao Du didn't say. Later, she guessed that after pondering for a few days, Liu Yucui finally understood that it was a woman's name. Then he scolded: May the sun be the day, plow your mother's foot! He stopped shouting, gritted his teeth, and didn't spit out a word. Lao Du stopped shouting. When the two of them slept again, they were stuffy.

Liu Yucui thought she was married to "Culture", but "Culture" was useless and became an ornament. Besides, the "cultural people" pick urine all day long, and their urine is smelly and smelly. Besides, after she got married, she learned that this was a "second uncle" who asked her to take care of food and clothing. After Lao Du left school, he was very disappointed. I don't say a word all day long, and I'm sullen. When you come home, he's like a puppet that needs to pull the string, you pull the rope, he moves, you don't pull the rope, he sits still.

In the past, Lao Du's life was very good. After having a woman, Lao Du handed over everything to a woman except for picking urine. Liu Yucui is indeed capable, and she can cook him a hot meal every day. However, on the first day of the fire, she picked the lock on a box brought by Lao Du. After opening the box, he tore the stack of books he brought with him into two stacks, one as a butt paper, and the other as a matchmaker for igniting fire. Lao Du picked up the urine and came back, was stunned, and said: Why did you burn the book? She said: There is no fire primer. Lao Du said: That's a book, not a fire primer. Liu Yucui said: If you don't want to read, can you wear a hat? Tell me that these books are to blame. As soon as the book burns, I don't think about anything, let's live a good life. Lao Du was stunned for a while and said: Yes. Burn it, burn it.

I vividly remember that I once stole a stack of loose pages of books from the stove house of Mr. Du's house, and the cover of the book had been torn off, and the sentences in the book were strange and the meaning was strange...... It wasn't until many years later that I remembered that the title of that book was "Rhetoric." That was what Liu Yucui used to wipe the child's buttocks.

For a while, the "movement" was not so tight. Another person came to the Yankang House to listen to Lao Du's "spray of air" and listen to him say that "Nixon's visit to China" was ...... At this time, there was a woman in the family, and the woman loved face, so she complained about Lao Du, saying: Look at it, you are also a cultural person, and you don't even have a stool to sit on at home? After talking too many times, Lao Du got angry and said: I'll do it. I do it myself. So, he found some old wood, borrowed carpentry tools, and went to the bookstore in the town to buy a set of furniture books of the latest style, and when he came back, he made it like a gourd painting scoop...... Lao Du originally wanted to do something that really satisfied women. He did it every day after work, and he did it for a whole month, and finally made two small chairs. He was originally going to make four new chairs, but after grinding two blood blisters, he barely made two. These two small chairs are so unseemly, one backrest is straight, no curvature, and crooked, barely able to sit people. The other one had a curvature, but it sawed the wood and fell apart as soon as it was tied...... was so angry that Liu Yucui walked a whole village street with the small wooden chair, and said to everyone: Look, look, is this a job done by people? !

After suffering for a month, he didn't even make a chair, and Lao Du felt that his face was dull. Annoyed and angry, he dropped an empty bowl at home...... The two also tore and fought!

After that, Lao Du finished picking up the urine, and he was not in a hurry to go home, and often sat in the sun in the village street to warm up and "spray the air" with others. Sometimes, I also learn from the villagers to twist a dry cigarette and smoke, cough loudly, and spit heavily. When it was time to eat, the woman shouted loudly: Lao Du, it's time to eat. At this time, Lao Du picked up an empty urine bucket and slowly walked home.

Later, Liu Yucui became pregnant and gave birth to a daughter. After giving birth to a child, there were many things, and I often called Lao Du for help. Every time she called Lao Du, she was half angry. For example, she was in the middle of a meeting, and the child pooped. She ran out of the stove house with both hands in her hands, and shouted: Lao Du, it's bad. Old Du was stunned. She said angrily: The child is, you can't put it? He asked: How? Liu Yucui had no choice, so she hurriedly washed her hands out, pulled the child up from the bed, squatted outside the door, and gave him a demonstration...... Sometimes, the woman shouted: Lao Du, it's silting. Lao Du was still stunned. Later, I learned that the fire in the stove was big, and it was the cornmeal porridge boiling in the pot that came out...... Shout again: Lao Du, sesame stalks! Lao Du was still stunned. The woman said viciously: Lao Du, add firewood to make a pot, you are not as good as that dead ghost, the dead ghost can still burn a pot for me! Where are you a wooden man?

On a homely day, there are many words that are omitted. It's a tacit understanding. For example, is it a drop star? (This is to ask if it's raining outside.) Like, look up? (This is to ask him to take down the basket that hangs from the beam.) For example, are you Qiu Niang? (This means that he is as lazy as a cicada and tells him to get out of bed.) ）…… Lao Du and Liu Yucui have never reached a tacit understanding. You can live without tacit understanding, it's just bumpy and bumpy, and life is okay. When Liu Yucui was annoyed, she scolded him. Scolding him is like scolding a three-year-old child, scolding him to the point of smoke...... Sometimes, the two also fight, but it is always Lao Du who suffers. Indeed, in life, most of the people who are at fault are Lao Du. Lao Du can't say Liu Yucui in terms of "reason" ("reason" is rural), and he can't beat Liu Yucui (Liu Yucui's mouth is one hand) when he moves...... Lao Du had no choice but to surrender. Liu Yucui punished Lao Du for pleading guilty.

In daily life, Lao Du is really useless. Lao Du also felt that he was a useless person, so let him ask for sin. When the rice pot was clogged, she forced Lao Du to bend over and stand in the stove house, reciting quotations in her mouth, and pleading guilty to the leader...... Liu Yucui liked to see the way he pleaded guilty: he hooked his head, hunched his waist like a shrimp, and every button was neatly buttoned, reciting the leader's quotations very formally. So, after a few days, she will find a stubble and do it again. Liu Yucui asked Lao Du to plead guilty, and at the same time made up for it every once in a while. As soon as he pleaded guilty, Liu Yucui laughed and his anger disappeared. Every time she pleaded guilty, she would give him some sweetness, boil him an egg or smash a walnut or something, saying that it was for him to replenish his brain. There is no way to make Lao Du. Later, Lao Du also got used to it.

For a while, when Liu Yucui came out, the villagers asked: Where is Lao Du?

Liu Yucui said quickly: Excuse yourself at home.

People just laughed.

It was more than ten years before Lao Du and Liu Yucui completely turned their faces.

In the summer of that year, first, someone brought back a message from the wandering criminal Liang Wufang: it was said that it was people who had been sent down from Beijing, and some had been transferred back. Some have been rehabilitated and have made up the money...... At this time, Lao Du was wearing a big pants and was squatting in the dining room to eat. Hearing this, he was stunned. The people who were eating in the restaurant also looked at him, and the people said: Lao Du, run. Maybe you'll be able to go back.

The corners of Lao Du's mouth trembled, he didn't say anything, and went home with the bowl.

The next day, Lao Du borrowed a bicycle and went to the city. He didn't come back from the city until it was dark. When people saw him hanging their heads, they chased after him and asked: Lao Du, what's wrong? Lao Du shook his head and didn't say anything. The next day, pick urine as usual.

The people in the village slowly learned that Lao Du went to ask, and they said that Lao Du made a mistake in the relationship between men and women, and it was not among the rehabilitation...... There was a period when Lao Du was sullen and very lost.

Later, when he went to eat in the restaurant, the people in the village taught him: Lao Du, you are stupid, do you think it is so easy to be rehabilitated? You have to send it! Lao Du said: Send? What to give? People say, "Give a gift." If you don't send it, who will give you the flat? You have to send it! And they all said, "Yes, send it!"

The audience said so, and Lao Du Xin was also alive, so he sent it. Lao Du's family was poor and had nothing to give, so he sent Liu Yucui to the village to borrow it. Liu Yucui heard that as long as he was "rehabilitated", he would become a member of the country, and he could pay his salary, what a good thing. So Liu Yucui said: I know you are thin-skinned. I'll go, I'll borrow...... Liu Yucui strung together one by one and told Lao Du about his rehabilitation. At this time, the people in the village seemed to be very kind, and persimmons, walnuts, eggs, and oil were made for him one by one. said that if Lao Du was rehabilitated, he would become an official......

According to the people in the village, at that time, Lao Du often rode a borrowed bicycle and carried the gifts from the villagers to the city again and again. Gradually, Lao Du's face was happy. Someone asked: How did you run? He said, "It's almost there."

Just ran and ran, a year has passed, and the matter of "rehabilitation" has still not been settled. Lao Du was running on the road day by day, and his hope seemed to be very slim, but he no longer worked in the fields. The people in the village also knew that he was running errands, and the team no longer forced him to be in distress. Most of the time, he either runs on the road, or lies in bed and worries, and his temper is also big, and he gets angry at every turn. At this time, Liu Yucui was cautious every time she called him to eat, and said: Master, get up, I rolled out sour noodle soup for you to eat.

Lao Du waved his hand and said: Don't bother me. Don't eat.

Liu Yucui was careful: How much do you eat......

Lao Du shouted: Let's go!

One morning, when the call for "a cup of tea" was called, Lao Du was still lying on the bed groggily, and he had a nightmare: he ran around, not only was he not rehabilitated, but he also put on a hat, and now he wears two "hats" on his head, and he is crying bitterly in his dream to do an examination...... Lao Du cried and cried and woke up. felt that someone was dragging him, and when he opened his eyes, he saw that it was Liu Yucui.

Liu Yucui stood in front of the bed and looked at him, then put a stack of money on his pillow and said: The sun is high, hurry up. There's still some way into town.

Lao Du was stunned and said: Where did this money come from?

Liu Yucui said: Master, I have borrowed all the villages, and I can't borrow them from you anymore. I asked someone to get out of the three paulownia trees in the courtyard. Sold for three hundred and ten dollars. You take it.

Lao Du sighed and said: It's not good. I just had a nightmare...... Forget it, I'm not going today.

Liu Yucui said: What dream? I'll give you a round.

Lao Du sighed and said: Hey, running around, not only was he not rehabilitated, but he added a hat and two ......

Liu Yucui said: Daddy, I think there is hope. Dreams are reversed, which is called topping on topping.

Lao Du was skeptical and said: Really?

Old Duben is unbelievable. But when people come to this point, they believe even if they don't believe it. He hurriedly got out of bed, washed his face, and went out to see that Liu Yucui had borrowed a bicycle from him, and he was full of energy. So I got on the bike and left. Liu Yucui chased after his ass and taught him: Don't worry about money, buy more cigarettes and alcohol. Haven't you heard people say, "Research and research"?

When people bumped into Lao Du in the village street, they all "clicked" and said: Lao Du, hasn't you run yet? Send, you have to send! The word "send" is the philosophy that grows out of the soil, the philosophy of the people.

Lao Du nodded and said: I know, I know.

…… Just ran and ran, and half a year passed.

One day, in the evening, the security director waited at the entrance of the village with two hands behind his back for Lao Du, who had returned from the city...... The security director asked: Lao Du, how did you run? When Lao Du saw that it was him, his hands trembled, and he almost fell off the car, so he said casually: It's fast. It's almost there. At this time, the security director stretched out his hand from behind, and he was holding a pair of torn leather shoes in his hand, three joints. The security director said: Give these shoes back to you. The shoes are small, and I haven't worn them for a day. You're running away, don't you have to, what...... Meters.

Lao Du looked at him, then at the shoes, and suddenly said: This shoe is for you. I don't want it. After saying that, get on the bike and go.

The security director chased his ass and shouted: Lao Du, Lao Du...... Lao Du cried, with tears on his face.

Early the next morning, Lao Du pumped up the car and hit the road again...... He really didn't want to look at the face of the security director anymore.

Winter goes to spring, Lao Du's mood is the same day by day, sometimes with joy, sometimes with a pouting face, dejected. Old Du Ben is a very well-cultivated and face-loving person, but he has lost all the little face he has in his rush. Later, Lao Du ran fast and lost confidence, and he had reached the point of almost despair.

I remember at that time, I was still in graduate school at a university. Suddenly, one day, Mr. Du came to the school to look for me. It was a Sunday, and I was alone in the dorm. He stumbled and staggered as he entered, and fell headlong into my arms. I looked at him in amazement and saw that his face was purple, purple and black, and I was simply furious! I've never seen him like this...... He was so angry that his lips trembled, and he stammered: Zhipeng (he always called me by his scientific name), you do me a favor. Do the teacher a favor.

I know he's been running the rehabilitation. But as a student who has not yet graduated, how can I help him? When I saw him like this, I looked like he was about to collapse, and said, "Say it." Unexpectedly, Mr. Du suddenly cried, he snorted and cried loudly! He cried and said, "Do you know how many people I have knocked on their doors? Do you know how many smiley faces I've lost? Have you ever tasted the feeling of standing outside someone's door at sunset...... It can be imagined how many grievances he has suffered and how many people's faces he has seen in his perennial travel...... Crying and crying, he wiped the tears from his eyes and muttered: The human heart is sinister, the human heart is sinister.

Then, he said quickly: So, to make a long story short, I have a person. The man promised to help. He said he'd do it for me...... Let's not talk about the gifts. For more than a year, I won't say how many gifts I have given him. He promised me, but he put it off again and again...... Now, I'm looking for him again. He said that he would immediately go to the city party committee to find someone. I don't trust him anymore. Well, do me a favor, and later, when he comes out, you follow him. I'm going to check it out and see if he's helping me. Then he whispered the name of a man...... This man, I know, is one of his college classmates, and now a middle leader in our school. So, I said yes.

It was also the first time in my life that I had stalked someone. A person whose hair is combed neatly, who has both a professor title and a certain position, and a good reputation. He was peacefully riding a new women's diagonal "Phoenix" bicycle (in the late '70s and early '80s, this was more energetic than driving a car now). He carried a basket on his bicycle, which was a basket of flowers made of thin bamboo silk, much like a work of art...... I sneaked up behind him in a borrowed broken car. I saw him riding slowly and leisurely, walking aesthetically along the road. He first went to the vegetable market, where he bought a few tender cucumbers, a few tomatoes, two catties of lean meat, a handful of garlic sprouts, and a bullwhip (which was very expensive...... Then he rode leisurely through the crowd, through the wet market, and then to the door of the city's department store. He set up his car in the parking lot and walked into the department store. Five minutes later, he came out with a few rolls of toilet paper in his hand, he put the toilet paper he bought on the frame behind him, rode on, and continued walking...... He rode to the gate of the municipal party committee and the municipal government, but he rode slowly past and did not get off. I think it's Sunday, and he might go to the family home of the municipal party committee to find someone, but the family home of the city party committee is next to the city government, and he still rides over leisurely...... I just followed him all the time. When I followed him back to school, I looked at my watch, and I followed him for an hour and thirty-six minutes. This follow-up has given me one of the most important life lessons. That is: don't trust people easily. Especially those who comb their backs with their hair big, stay away from him.

Teacher Du is still waiting for me in the dormitory. I don't know what to tell him, I think he's going to be furious, and maybe he'll try his best to find that guy...... But he listened to me, but he was silent for a long time. It took a long time to mutter: Got it. I know. I won't look for him again. With that, he turned around and walked out. When he went out, his whole body seemed to be crushed, and his back was hunched very badly. I chased out the door, and suddenly said: Mr. Du...... He turned around and looked at me. I pointed my hand to the sky and said, "It's not good in the city, you go to the province." He said, "Looking for it?" I said, "Yes, above." He suddenly pounced, grabbed my hand, and said, "I see." Thank you, brother.

After that, for a while, Mr. Du often rode the broken bicycle borrowed from his old uncle to school. He left his bicycle in front of my dorm room and took the train to the provincial capital...... Every time, he quietly told me not to tell anyone about going to the province to run. Don't say it to anyone.

Three months later, one day, Lao Du returned to the village early in the afternoon. When Lao Du came back, he sat in the courtyard, and he didn't enter the house, but sat in the courtyard, very silent. Liu Yucui saw that he was unhappy, so she first handed him the fan. Afraid that he would get angry, he handed him the brewed wild chrysanthemum tea, but he still didn't say a word.

It was late at night, the stars were twinkling in the sky, and Lao Du was still sitting in the courtyard in a daze. Dinner was served to him, but he would not eat it. I warmed him up a few more times, but he still wouldn't eat. Liu Yucui didn't dare to call him, and even walked carefully. A few times, Liu Yucui came out of the house, stood in front of him, and said: Lao Du, it's not early. Lao Du didn't say anything. After a while, Liu Yucui came out of the house again and said, "Lao Du, it's cold at night, put on your clothes." As he spoke, he put a robe on him. Lao Du still sat still, looking very sad. In the end, Liu Yucui said: Master, don't be bad in your heart, you really can't run, forget it. Spending that money is only used as meat buns to beat dogs.

At this time, Lao Du slowly stood up, stretched his waist, and said silently: Do you want me to ask for sin?

Liu Yucui smiled and said: I forgot about this stubble...... Please.

So, Lao Du stood in the courtyard, straightened his clothes, buttoned up, bent down, hooked his head, and recited to Liu Yucui: I am guilty. I am a sinner. Teach us that mistakes and setbacks teach us lessons and make us wiser...... Liu Yucui laughed so much that her waist couldn't straighten up, she waved her hand and said: Forget it, forget it, I don't blame you.

At this moment, Lao Du suddenly cried, Lao Du burst into tears, and the pain was unbearable. Liu Yucui was frightened and hurriedly said: Lao Du, Lao Du, what's wrong with you? I didn't ask you to invite it, you asked for it...... Lao Du waved his hand and didn't say anything.

That night, after Lao Du entered the house, he first looked around the house, as if he didn't recognize it: the roof of the chimney house was very black with smoke; On the wall, the eyelet used to hang cigarette sticks is stuffed with nests of wheat straw; On the beam of the house hangs a black bamboo basket, the basket is a rat-proof "angry cat", and in the basket are two boxes of snacks for relatives, as well as a bag of boiled lard...... Then he leaned back on the bed and stared at it all in amazement.

Here, Liu Yucui washed and washed up, cleaned up the pots and pans, and after returning to the room, she looked at Lao Du and was stunned...... Later, she told people that she had long seen that Lao Du was wrong. Lao Du's soul is gone, and Lao Du is becoming more and more strange.

That night, the lamp was blown out, and Lao Du suddenly said: It's flat.

Liu Yucui turned around in surprise, looked at him, and said: God, have you been rehabilitated?

Lao Du said: It's flat.

Liu Yucui said: My lord, why didn't you say it earlier? Is it really flat?

Lao Du nodded and said: You can open a household registration tomorrow.

Liu Yucui said: What about the certificate?

Lao Du said: What certificate?

Liu Yucui said: Let me see the certificate of rehabilitation.

Lao Du took out the piece of paper from his close-fitting pocket and gave it to Liu Yucui...... Liu Yucui hurriedly lit the lamp again, took the paper stamped with a big red seal and looked at it again and again, and took a picture in front of the lamp, saying: It's really not easy, in the end, it's flat...... Then he said, "Read it to me."

Lao Du's face changed suddenly, and he said sharply: What are you reading? There's something to read. Flat is flat. As he spoke, he snatched the piece of paper from her hand, folded it again, and put it in his close-fitting pocket.

Liu Yucui looked at him and said cautiously: Look at you, I didn't say anything. If you don't read it, you won't read it. Well, go to sleep.

The two of them lay down again, back to back, each with some thoughts...... After blowing out the lamp, Liu Yucui fell asleep, and suddenly sat up, slapped the bed, and said: Lao Du, what about me, what about the child?

Lao Du lay in the dark and said, "I'll go first." You...... With the children, let's go back.

Liu Yucui said: You pat your ass and leave, you won't ...... Don't me, right? Speak.

Lao Du was silent for a while and said, "No."

Liu Yucui said: I don't think you will either, you are not that ruthless person.

Lao Du said: Sleep.

Liu Yucui said: Daddy, can't you leave my girl...... Anyway, I've been with you for so many years......

Lao Du said: Sleep. Go to bed.

Liu Yucui kicked him with her feet: If you dare not want my girl, I won't follow you!

Lao Du said: Now that I have just been rehabilitated, I have no house and nothing, and when I am settled, I will come back to pick you up.

Liu Yucui Tun'er smiled and said: This is about the same.

After that, Liu Yucui turned around and hugged him, and said very gently: Niu's father, you, plow. I can do whatever you call me. You plow...... Plow plow plow, plow, plow!

Lao Du turned over and got on the horse, but suddenly like a deflated ball, he said: A breath of garlic. Go, brush your teeth.

Liu Yucui reluctantly got up from the bed, and muttered: It's the middle of the night, what are you brushing your teeth? You're going to be it...... But she went anyway. This night, Liu Yucui willingly shouted a lot of "plows".

On the day Lao Du left, he thanked people when he saw them, and said a lot of words of gratitude to the villagers...... He also said with tears that it was Wuliang who transformed him. Wu Liang is his regenerative parent. He also said that these years, these days, he will never forget for the rest of his life.

After Lao Du left, Liu Yucui looked at the entrance of the village every day. Looking at it, one day, she suddenly jumped to her feet in the village street and scolded: I was fooled. For so many years, I've raised a white-eyed wolf!

The people in the village persuaded her: "What can you do?" Lao Du, this person, no.

A year later, Lao Du returned.

Lao Du came back for a divorce.

It is said that Lao Du insisted on divorce because of a newspaper...... The people in the village said: Foolishness. No one got divorced because of a newspaper, and that's just an excuse.

When Lao Du came back, he went to visit his uncle first and gave him cigarettes and alcohol. Later, they worshiped one by one, gave biscuits and candies, and smoked cigarettes one by one...... People say: not bad, not bad. Lao Du finally came out.

Lao Du came back this time and became more modest. Although he was rehabilitated, he was already a member of the country, but he was still wearing the clothes he usually wore and looked very sloppy. Even the people in the village couldn't stand it anymore, and said: Lao Du, you are now a national cadre, it's time to put on clothes and change into new clothes. He just smiled and didn't say anything.

Later, Liu Yucui said that he was pretending. By that time, Lao Du had learned to tell lies. Lao Du didn't know how to tell lies, and he blushed when he told lies, but now Lao Du's face is not red when he tells lies. Liu Yucui said angrily: He has practiced. Lao Du is very cunning, and Lao Du has set her a trap. Lao Du didn't say divorce, but only said that he would transfer the household registration for Liu Yucui and his wife.

At that time, Liu Yucui didn't know that Lao Du would lie to her. At first, Liu Yucuimei died, so beautiful that she didn't sleep well all night.

That morning, she also combed her hair, changed her clothes, cleaned up like vegetables, and went on the road with a straight line. When she walked up the village street, she saw people and said: "I want to change my household registration." After that, it's the city people. When the time comes, you can go, all of you...... Zhang Yang is known to everyone in a village. After saying these "slapping words" that later became a laughing stock, she happily went to the town with Lao Du.

In a shop on the town street, Lao Du first led Liu Yucui to pull two pieces of fabric for making clothes. Liu Yucui said: What are you spending this money for? Lao Du said: Gotta flowers. I've been suffering from you all these years. said that Liu Yucui's heart was soft.

In a restaurant in the town, Lao Du asked for four hard dishes: a button of meat, a steamed bowl, a fried peanut, a braised fish, and two bowls of rice, all of which are Liu Yucui's favorite food. When Liu Yucui ate her mouth full of oil, Lao Du had a showdown.

Lao Du said: Cui, there are some things, we have to take our time, step by step.

Liu Yucui burped and said: You, what do you mean?

Lao Du said: Originally, it was for the two of you to do it together. Now I can only do it one by one. Who do you think will happen first?

Liu Yucui was stunned for a moment and said: Didn't you say that everything will be turned?

Lao Du said: I want to turn around, but people don't want to do it.

Liu Yucui was anxious and said: You send it. The money that should be spent has to be spent.

Lao Du said: You think I didn't give it, I give gifts to people every day, and my legs are broken, so I approved this one. Let's take our time, do you think it's okay?

Liu Yucui's head was covered, and she said: That's that...... First, let's turn the child.

Lao Du said: I also think that the future of the child is important, what do you say? Then, he said, "Don't worry, I'll do it for you."

Liu Yucui was stunned...... She felt that something was wrong, but she couldn't think about it for a while.

After eating in the restaurant, he led Liu Yucui to transfer his daughter's household registration. Maybe Lao Du has already done it, and his daughter's affairs are going well, and the police have stamped the seals one by one.

Coming out of the police station, in the courtyard of the town government, Lao Du pretended to remember it suddenly and said: That's right. There's something to do, let's do it by the way. Liu Yucui didn't think much about it and asked: What's the matter? Lao Du said: I'll tell you when I do it. This matter has to do with the division of houses, and I can divide the houses in the city after that. Liu Yucui said: What the hell is going on? Lao Du said: Don't ask, just to prove that I don't have a house in the countryside. Liu Yucui said: That's it? Lao Du said: That's it. Then he specially instructed: After you go in, don't say anything. When people ask you if you agree or not, you just say yes.

So, Liu Yucui went into another room with Lao Du in a daze......

Later, Liu Yucui said when she met someone: This person is really yin! He's a slow poison, tricking me little by little!

Liu Yucui said to the villagers: I am really blind. Why don't you see it? This is all designed by Lao Du. Lao Du has been running for two and a half years for rehabilitation, and under the guidance of people again and again, Lao Du has learned to give gifts. Not only did he learn to give gifts, but he also learned to tell nonsense. He talks about people when he sees people, and he talks nonsense when he sees ghosts, and he has become a basket of nonsense!

Lao Du must have given a generous gift to the town's civil affairs assistant in advance, so the divorce procedures went very smoothly. The civil affairs assistant is a dormitory and office in one. After Lao Du entered the house, he first asked Liu Yucui to wait outside, and then leaned sideways and took out two red marriage certificates from his pocket and handed them over, saying: Assistant Liu, you're busy. The civil affairs assistant glanced outside, and only asked symbolically: Are you coming...... No comments, right? Liu Yucui looked inside. Without waiting for Liu Yucui to see it clearly, the civil affairs assistant took out the two blue divorce certificates, filled in the names accordingly, and stamped the seal with "Papa". After that, Lao Du said: Thank you. Out of the room, dragged Liu Yucui and left.

Out of the town government, along the way, Lao Du said all the good things. He said: Yucui, don't worry, I will be worthy of you two. That's it, I'll be good to you for the rest of my life. Cui, I know that you are a good person, you are kind-hearted, you are a knife-mouthed tofu heart, and a bodhisattva's heart. You have to trust me. In my life, if I want to say I'm sorry, I'm sorry for you. I'll pay you back. If I eat, you and my mother will eat. Do you believe it? I'll send you money every month...... Liu Yucui had never heard so many good words in her life, she was like a motion sickness, and followed Lao Du to the station in a daze.

waited until Lao Du got on the bus to the county seat...... After the car drove away, Liu Yucui put her hand into her pocket, only to find that Lao Du Se had not only 300 yuan in an envelope in her pocket, but also a blue "divorce certificate".

Liu Yucui cried "wow". She regretted not paying attention to what Lao Du said repeatedly, and now she finally understood what Lao Du meant by "that".

Lao Du divorced for a reason.

It is said that during the years when Lao Du was running for rehabilitation, he accidentally saw an article published in the newspaper on the road, and the title of the article was "The Moon is the Hometown of Ming". The last sentence of this article "The Moon is Hometown Ming" reads: The month of your hometown, how are you? It's just such a sentence "Hometown month, how are you?" So that Lao Du suddenly had the idea of divorce, and the first conspiracy succeeded.

Lao Du really wants to go back to the past and find the "li" in his mind. Many years have passed, and "li" has been a knot in his heart. After his rehabilitation, he missed the days with "Li" even more. Whenever he recalls being with "Li", he always chooses the best one. Just like sugar cane, he took the sweetest section, the most romantic and poetic period. That sweet memory was like old wine, intoxicating him.

After Lao Du's divorce, it was like looking for a needle in a haystack, asking everywhere about the whereabouts of "Li". He wrote countless letters and entrusted many of his former classmates...... But by the time he found "Li", "Li" was already someone else's woman. After inquiry, "li" has been transferred to Beijing. Now he is a person of great status. When Lao Du took the address and took a train overnight to Beijing, he didn't even see the face of "li". The day Lao Du found "Li" was also the time when he was disillusioned. Lao Du spent three days in a hotel in Beijing, looking forward to seeing the "li" side. After so many years, why can't we see each other? But "li" is very resolute, and "li" doesn't want to see him...... In the end, Lao Du only received a sentence conveyed by others: let it pass if it is past.

Lao Du was in pain. Lao Du got drunk on the streets of Beijing. He was drunk for a day and a night, and almost died there...... Under the persuasion of a former classmate, Lao Du came back in the car in a very disappointed place. According to the classmates who passed the word, the article "li" is not to go back to the past, it is just a little "sadness" in the process of moving forward. It is to wash away the past and look forward to a new future...... In this way, Lao Du mistakenly understood the meaning. But Lao Du still couldn't be relieved, Lao Du insisted that it was not as the messenger said, and it was impossible for a person to completely forget the past. "li" still has feelings for him, and "li" must have something unspeakable...... That being said, Lao Du was still very frustrated. This time, his heart was broken. Although he didn't see his "li", he didn't want to go back to the past.

But he didn't expect that Liu Yucui didn't eat dry rice either. Liu Yucui was unwilling to leave him so easily. Liu Yucui yearns for city life, and she has been looking forward to it for many years...... Therefore, Liu Yucui will never give up.

Going down, it's "sparrow warfare" and "guerrilla warfare."

That day, Liu Yucui cried all the way back to the village, and when she returned to the village, she was about to cry and die, she regretted it! Her bowels were blue......

As soon as Liu Yucui returned to the village, she asked the villagers to surround her. Although Lao Du deceived her into getting a successful divorce, Liu Yucui's crying after returning to the village aroused the sympathy of the whole village. People say, why is this Lao Du so yin, how can he do such a thing? It's so inhuman! You think, a village of people is trying to make money for him. Everyone made things for him, bags of persimmons, walnuts, peanuts, and small sesame oil...... A person who picked up feces and urine in the village back then, and a person who was not as good as a dog, is now rehabilitated, and he actually left the woman and ran away. Who is this?!

So, three days later, Liu Yucui and a group of villagers flocked to the city's normal college and told Lao Du to come. Beamless people surrounded the gate of the school in groups, shouting loudly: Big hooligan Du Qiuyue get out!

But Lao Du didn't dare to meet the villagers at all, and Lao Du was so frightened that he hid. Lao Du played this conspiracy in his life, but the conspiracy killed him again. Wuliang people first shouted at the gate of the school, and then rushed into the principal's office, one by one they argued about Du Qiuyue's bad deeds, and said that Lao Du was a mess. People slapped the headmaster's desk and said, "This is a big scoundrel!"

Later, the principal "invited" Lao Du to the principal's office. The principal is Lao Du's former classmate, and this classmate patted the table and said: Lao Du, why are you shit? Quickly wiped it clean. If you don't handle it well, you don't come to class.

Hearing the principal say this, Lao Du was stupid. Lao Du thought that as long as he was divorced, he would break off with Liu Yucui. But he didn't expect that Liu Yucui would chase him to the city and then make trouble with him. Such a fuss strengthened Lao Du's determination. Now that he has reached this point, he will never look back. He decided to change places and transfer away.

At first, Lao Du was quite confident, he said: There is no master here, there is a place to raise a master. But he didn't expect that Liu Yucui would fight a protracted war with him. Since he returned to the city, Liu Yucui has been in love with him. No matter where he was transferred, Liu Yucui chased him wherever he went, and found the leaders of the unit to sue him again and again...... This battle lasted for three years.

Since returning to the city, it can be said that Lao Du has not had a day of peace. Lao Du was short in his heart, afraid of seeing Liu Yucui, and hid in Tibet all day long.

At first, Lao Du was not allocated a house, and he rented a house near the school. In order to avoid Liu Yucui, he had to keep moving with his broken box...... Lao Du has to teach his students every week, and his route to work is fixed. Liu Yucui was very free (at that time, the land had already been divided, and she gave the land to others), and she could arrest him whenever she wanted. Lao Du went to work every day like a thief, sneaking around, going out to look around first, and then walking out in a panic. But he was often unexpectedly blocked on the road by Liu Yucui. At the beginning, Lao Du still wanted to be a "hooligan". Lao Du thought that he was divorced anyway, what else could you do? Lao Du said: Who are you? You go, I don't know you. Liu Yucui said in front of everyone: Who am I? You don't know who I am? I'm your wife! Lao Du said: Who are you wife? I don't know you! Liu Yucui said: You don't know me? Do you dare to say you don't know me? There's a kind of you take your pants off and I'll tell you who I am! Let's take a look, he has a birthmark on his butt! Who am I? After sleeping in the same bed for so many years, you don't know who I am...... Lao Du was anxious and said: Didn't you say that I was a hooligan? I'm a hooligan. Bite?! Liu Yucui said: Okay. You scoundrel. You're a hooligan, aren't you? Then you take it off, take off your pants in public! Take one off and I'll take a look, I see how you are a hooligan? Take off, take off, take off!

Lao Du saw that this trick didn't work, so he turned around and left. Liu Yucui chased after him...... There is no way to chase Lao Du. Then he kept making amends and saying good things. Lao Du begged and said: Cui, Yucui, aunt, will you spare me? The two of us have already left, and we have no feelings. Liu Yucui said: You are a liar. Marriage was deceived by you. If you want to leave, you said this earlier? What did you do earlier? I've slept in the same bed for so many years, and at this point, you've been rehabilitated and become a member of the country, you say you have no feelings?! Lao Du begged: At that time, at that time, didn't you quarrel all day long? And thou hast made me plead guilty...... Liu Yucui said: At that time? Do you still have the face to say back then? You were a "bad guy" back then, and you were still wearing a hat. Pat your conscience, have I ever disliked you?! Please, who made you plead? That's your own volition. Are you human? Is this what you're doing called personnel? If you have a little conscience, will you lie to me about the divorce?! Lao Du said: Cui, I owe you, I'm not a human, I'm not as good as a pig and a dog, okay? Will you let me go...... But no matter what he said, Liu Yucui pestered him.

Later, as soon as Lao Du saw Liu Yucui, he turned his head and ran. He was running in front, Liu Yucui was chasing behind, and Liu Yucui was still chasing and shouting: Catch the thief, catch the thief...... Lao Du explained to people while running: I'm not a thief, I'm really not a thief...... Although Lao Du has returned to the city, he is still very tormented on such days.

Lao Du really has no choice. In order to avoid Liu Yucui, he has changed three units successively. He was transferred from city to city, and then from city to province. Every time he was transferred, he had to entertain and give gifts, which consumed a lot of his energy...... But every time he changed places, he was quickly found by Liu Yucui. When Liu Yucui saw someone, she told Lao Du about the divorce, and said that he was picking urine back then...... So that Lao Du Li is not a person.

Lao Du was also not happy at work, he had insomnia every night, and later got migraine. As soon as I stood on the podium, I felt dizzy, my mind went blank, and I was hospitalized for a while. What's more, for more than ten years, he has been hiding in Tibet, dealing with Liu Yucui, and he failed to pass the teacher qualification exam. It is said that in the examination room, once, he actually forgot which dynasty "Bai Juyi" was a poet and forgot that he was "a poet of what kind". He looked at the scroll in his hand, but his eyes were full of Liu Yucui...... He lost too much time, and the Chinese characters he learned in the past were eaten in the countryside on pancake rolls. This made him very ashamed. He was first transferred from a teacher's college to a middle school, and then from a middle school to a primary school, and so on and so forth, that even his qualifications as a primary school teacher were wasted. Eventually, he became a complete patient and could not attend classes. He has a bad brain, he doesn't do well in class, he doesn't have a good reputation, the school has opinions, and the parents of the students have even more opinions...... It didn't take long for him to retire early.

Finally one day, Lao Du walked and fell on the road, but Liu Yucui sent him to the hospital......

Later, I met him on a street corner in the provincial capital. He sat alone on the side of the street, with old gray hair, his trouser legs "flattened" high, one foot bare, one foot pulling a cloth shoe, the other shoe padded under his buttocks, and a broken plastic bag containing cigarettes, matches, and quick-acting pills. He sat on the curb in a daze, coughing loudly, spitting loudly, and cursing loudly...... My teacher, the teacher who used to be able to recite "Lisao" in its entirety, is now completely a countryman's style.

Now, Lao Du has remarried.

His wife is still Liu Yucui.

Liu Yucui, who is extremely tenacious, finally settled down in the city...... In the perennial rush and struggle, Liu Yucui became more and more energetic. At the beginning, there was a belief that had always supported her, that is, she was not doing well, and she would never let this ungrateful person live comfortably. It is said that her daughter has grown up and has already joined the workforce, and she has persuaded her more than once: forget it. Leave and leave, stop making trouble. But she still persevered. She said, "No." I came out, I just wanted to mess with him. I have to let him know that without me Liu Yucui, he won't have a good day!

However, it is precisely because she chases again and again, and finds people to tell, beg, and accuse again and again...... She is also becoming more familiar with the environment around the school. Later, in order to survive, she fought against Lao Du while also doing a small business. Liu Yucui was instructed to work as a helper for a man who sold mutton skewers at the school gate (putting mutton on iron chisels), and then worked as a part-time job for the school's teachers to clean up, earning two wages at the same time. Later, when I met an opportunity, I actually set up a small shop selling tobacco, alcohol and groceries at the entrance of the school, and the business was still very prosperous.

After chasing to the provincial capital, she first sold a small shop in the city, poured a sum of money, and then rented a commissary selling stationery and books in front of a middle school in the provincial capital. A person who has support in his heart is not afraid of hardship...... She insisted on fighting against Lao Du while doing business and lived a fulfilling life. After running around the city for a long time and seeing more of the world, she is gradually grooming herself, including the way she complains against Lao Du. She no longer shouted loudly, nor did she open her mouth to scold, her voice gradually lowered, and she spoke objectively and measuredly, which won the sympathy of more people. Besides, she is still a somewhat beautiful woman, so naturally there are many people who are willing to help her. In this way, in the provincial capital, her business has slowly improved...... It was later expanded into a three-storefront bookstore selling both genuine and pirated books.

Today, Liu Yucui's clothes are also completely urbanized. She was already a small boss with four salesmen. It was also a light blue suit skirt, her hair was permed into curls, and under her feet were a pair of high-heeled leather shoes, standing brightly in the store, listening to the hired little girl call her sweetly: Manager Liu.

It is said that Manager Liu has bought a three-bedroom house in the provincial capital, bought a household registration, and is already an authentic city person. After Lao Du had a stroke and was admitted to the hospital, he was destitute, and there was no one around him, so he really couldn't do without Liu Yucui.

Nowadays, when Manager Liu Yucui and Liu talk about business with others, he often says to those booksellers with a smile: Don't fool me, my family is a graduate of a famous university.

It is said that Liu Yucui also often goes to the beauty shop to do beauty. She had a mask on her face, lay on the beauty chair, closed her eyes and said to the women who did beauty together: My family, graduated from a prestigious university, was beaten as a rightist in his early years. He only came back after being rehabilitated. He is a good person, a good person on the 100th floor, and whether he is a scholar, the school is vying for him. It's just stubborn, stubborn, stubborn. If it weren't for him, I wouldn't have come to the city......

However, when she returned to the store, she looked out the window at where Lao Du was sitting, snorted in her nose, stretched out her hand, and said to the little girls: See? That's a piece of waste. I fed a waste. However, he graduated from a prestigious university. Back then, he was merry and handsome, followed by a group of female college students! No, that's him. On the curb, there you sit...... Who are you, you were still making a fuss about divorcing me back then. It's really not a thing. Ah......h Then she said to the little girls, "You can't call him a waste." I can scream, you can't scream, call the professor.

The girls said, "Yes."

Lao Du sat on the curb of the road, shaking his white hair, waving his hands, and scolding loudly...... It's corrupt. It's so corrupt! You have to use the tiger head of Lao Bao (Yin Bao Zheng of the Song Dynasty) to install the motor, and you will be a brother-in-law!

Let me tell you a secret: I still have five "white strips" written to me by my old uncle in my hand, two of which are written on cigarette paper boxes, asking me to help Mr. Du run errands; The other three were written on letterhead, asking me to help Liu Yucui fight the divorce lawsuit...... It's contradictory.

The old uncle's words are still: see the words as the face.
