Chapter 64: Listen to You
It was as if she had a nightmare, and in the dream she saw a fire that almost turned half of the sky red. But the strange thing is that there is such a big fire, but no one is to save it. The surrounding houses were about to be set on fire, but the owners of those houses only quickly demolished their own affected houses, avoiding greater losses, and no one went to put out the fire from beginning to end.
It's weird. Although she has never seen any fires in her short four-year life, two days ago, You Decheng was beaten for playing with fire, and it was just a small fire. Although she felt that this situation was very abnormal, it was just a dream that Ning Ning had after all, and she forgot about it after a while. What's more, it's still the middle of the night, so I turned over and continued to sleep.
When she got up the next morning, Grandma You asked her what she was.
"Ning Ning, did you have a nightmare last night? Why did you sit up all of a sudden? ”
Ning Ning nodded very honestly.
"Last night I dreamed of a big fire, grandma. The house was burned, and the sky turned red, but no one went to put out the fire, and I was very anxious. ”
Grandma You suddenly put down the work in her hand, wiped her hands with the apron tied to her body, and stretched out her warm palm worriedly to probe the temperature of Ning Ning's forehead.
Ok, not that hot.
"We Ning Ning have really grown up, and we all know that we have to put out the fire when it is on fire. It seems that the fire caused by Decheng's kid has kept you thinking about it until now. Rest assured child, grandma will watch firmly in the future, and will never let our house catch fire. ”
Although she didn't know why her grandmother said that, Ning Ning nodded and ran to the yard. She had already heard the whispers of her friends in the yard. Sure enough, as soon as I arrived in the yard, I saw Dabao Erbao and Sister Xiaobei surrounding something, and I didn't know what they were doing.
When they got closer, they realized that they were surrounded by the same basin that they had used to put beautiful stones.
During this time, after everyone's unremitting efforts, there are more and more beautiful stones in this basin. Dabao, Erbao and Xiaobei were putting in the beautiful stone they picked up when they went out to pour water this morning.
Seeing Ning Ning coming over at this time, everyone smiled.
"Ning Ning, congratulations on growing up another year. I hope you will be as healthy and happy in the future as you are now. ”
"Thank you, Sister Dabao."
Ning Ning looked at the ice floe on the surface, the basin that was broken by the three sisters, and couldn't help but stretch out a finger to touch it carefully. As a result, he suddenly hissed from the cold, and quickly pulled his fingers back.
Why is this water so cold?
"Don't touch the cold water, Ning Ning, what if you catch a cold and have a fever? Hurry up and wash your face, and you'll have breakfast later. ”
So Ning Ning reluctantly walked away. Originally, everyone was relaxed during the Chinese New Year, but because the You family had the idea of growing vegetables, they began a series of preparations after the whole family had a happy breakfast. It was true that they only wanted to use a few large baskets to grow vegetables a few days ago, but if they wanted to provide a continuous supply, these baskets would not do much. So everyone quickly cleaned up the largest room and sprinkled it evenly with a layer of soil mixed with a little ash.
After the kang was burned, everyone planted the sprouted vegetable seedlings in those large boxes. In this winter, I didn't grow any vegetables with a long growth cycle, just some simple vegetables that had a faster harvest.
Everyone joined in the labor, and even a few small ones in Ning Ning took their own small hoes to dig holes in the ground. Everyone gathered firewood and the flame was high, and by the time it was evening, the house full of green vegetable seedlings had been arranged.
When everyone got together for dinner in the evening, Wushan also gave his opinion.
Some wealthy people's favorite dishes are light dishes. Especially those old people and children from rich and noble families, their teeth and mouths are not very good, and if the vegetables are elders, it will be very difficult for them to chew. What's more, some particular people like to eat the green vegetables that have just grown out and think they are more tender.
Therefore, according to Wushan's meaning, in another three or five days, these vegetables can be brought to the county town to be peddled.
Everyone was overjoyed with the news, so the You family was very happy throughout the Chinese New Year. It's just that during this time, the adults of the You family have indeed heard those plausible sayings in the village. They just feel helpless. Although their family is from peach blossoms, no one stipulates that the displaced people who have fled the famine must live a lonely life for the rest of their lives, right? Is it a sin for them to have a little better life?
And they sold some money when they caught those beasts in the field before, and the rest of the days are spent on expenses, even if they know in their hearts that no rich family can refuse the temptation of fresh vegetables in winter, but hasn't it been sold yet, hasn't it been returned yet? Besides, who doesn't eat meat during the Chinese New Year? Could it be that because their family eats meat, it doesn't fit the impression that most people in Qingshui Village have of homeless people?
It's just that they just listen to these rumors, and they won't make themselves angry because of the inconsistencies of these inconsistencies. They work with their own hands and eat with their hard-earned money, and who's to say it's not allowed? There is no such thing in the world.
Coupled with the fact that it's been a hard year, what's wrong with what they want to make the elderly and children at home eat better? You can't just stop everyone from eating meat because of these rumors, right?
"Don't be afraid, do whatever you want. We neither stole nor robbed, and we are not afraid of gossip. In the future, if such a person says such a thing, he will go back to the past. Although we live in this village, we have received a lot of care. But human favor is human affection, life is life, we can always remember this kindness, help everyone when they need help, but we must not appear weak. ”
You Laohan knocked on the table with the oily and smooth dry smoke gun in his hand, looking quite calm. The old man who has lived in the countryside all his life has his own way of survival.
"The family of the village must not be cowardly. We don't do bad things, but we can't let others weigh on our heads. The first time you were bullied, you didn't say anything, you thought about it, and the second time people bullied you, you would think that you were timid anyway, and you wouldn't resist if you bullied you, there would be a third and fourth time. As time goes by, everyone will default to your family being a bully, but everyone wants to step on your head. ”
"We don't want to be such people, and we won't be bullied like this."
You family, you look at me, I look at you, I don't say it, but I am convinced in my heart, so I agreed in unison.
"Okay, listen to you."
