Chapter 93: We Are All the Same
Xu Deyong patted the stone and said, "This thing is a bit heavy!" ”
Xu Huizhen glanced at him and said, "Do you also think this stone is heavier than ordinary stones?" ”
"Hmm." Xu Deyong said: "And there seems to be something in it." ”
Xu Huizhen bit her lip when she heard this, and said, "Can you not tell this to others?" ”
The two looked at each other, Xu Deyong nodded, and then put the stone back and said, "I didn't see anything." ”
Xu Deyong's eyes were frank and bright, so Xu Huizhen couldn't help but droop her eyes and said, "Thank you, I'll write to you." ”
After that, he twisted his waist lightly and went to the house with the child in his arms.
Xu Deyong came out and said, "A few brothers, help clean up the tavern." ”
Qiangzi sat still and said, "Hey, I'm addicted to helping people." ”
Cai Quanwu and Liu Dezhu walked towards the tavern without saying a word.
Xu Deyong smiled lightly and said, "Help, each person will take half a catty of wine today." ”
Liu Dezhu squinted his eyes when he heard this: "Some people don't move!" ”
Qiangzi rubbed for a while, but still followed and said: "I'm giving me a lot of face, you don't have to coax here, if you, I won't care about you ...... eight sedan chairs to carry me." ”
In the midst of the two bickering, the four of them cleaned up the tavern.
Xu Huizhen came out after writing the letter and looked at the neat tavern, and said in surprise: "You are very fast!" ”
Qiangzi said: "Aren't you happy, the four of us did it." ”
Xu Deyong took the letter and said: "I'll go tomorrow to pull wine, it's a little too hurried one day, I'll stay for one night and come back the next morning." ”
Xu Huizhen glanced at him slightly and said: "I didn't say that I would let you go back and forth in a day, that leg would really run away, I have already said that I will arrange for you to eat and stay, you can rest assured." ”
"Done!" Xu Deyong nodded and said, "Then I'll pull the wine jar between eight or nine o'clock." ”
"Well, then I'll open the door and wait for you." Xu Huizhen said softly.
"Then don't bother you, I'll pour the wine into a jar and pull it away?" Xu Deyong said and said with the corners of his mouth slightly raised: "Do you need me to write you a note?" ”
"Let's pull it away." Xu Huizhen said and handed him a small packet of pickles and said, "Don't dislike it when you drink and eat wine." ”
Xu Deyong took it with a smile and said, "Thank you, then I won't be polite to you." ”
"You're welcome, just don't drink too much, you'll still be alive tomorrow." Xu Huizhen smiled lightly.
Xu Deyong nodded, found a wine jar that could hold fifty catties and put it aside, squatted down with his arms in a cage, lifted the big wine jar next to the counter that could hold nearly 100 catties and said, "Brother, pour wine." ”
Seeing this, a flash of surprise flashed in Xu Huizhen's eyes, and hurriedly said, "Hey, you can take it easy, don't flash your waist." ”
"It's okay, don't worry, there's not much wine in it." Xu Deyong said.
His squats are not for nothing.
The other three looked surprised.
Cai Quanwu and Liu Dezhu hurriedly stepped forward to help.
Liu Dezhu asked: "Deyong, why are you pouring wine?" ”
"Boom......."
Xu Deyong poured and said: "This wine is the salary given by the shopkeeper Xu, find a place to sell it, and the remaining two catties are our wine tonight." ”
"That's a good idea." Liu Dezhu's eyes lit up.
Qiangzi said enviously with his hands in his hands: "Hey, Shopkeeper Xu is really bright, I knew that I would have done this job in a hurry, so that Deyong took a big advantage, I have to drink two more glasses tonight." ”
Liu Dezhu choked him and said: "You are lazy at work and want to drink more, why is your face plate so big!" ”
The corners of Qiangzi's mouth twitched: "It's also for the sake of Deyong's face, otherwise I would have to give you some color today." ”
Xu Deyong said angrily: "Don't make noise, let people see jokes, or you will find a place to fight first, and then we will drink!" ”
The two glared at each other, don't look away, no one cares about anyone.
Poured the remaining wine from several jars together, poured half a jar of wine, more than 20 catties, and sold for six cents in a tavern for a catty, and these wines cost more than a dozen yuan.
Xu Hui really introduced the generosity of the girls, not much worse than Chen Xueru.
But going to Niulanshan to pull wine is really powerful, and there is no ambiguity at all.
Cai Quanwu and Liu Dezhu went out with the wine jar.
"Shopkeeper, gone." Xu Deyong waved his hand.
"Walk slowly."
Xu Huizhen watched a few people leave, closed the door of the tavern again, turned around and whispered, "Deyong, Xu Deyong......." ”
……
Qiangzi still has a bit of a way to do this, so he found someone he knew and sold it for twenty catties at a price of five cents a catty, and Xu Deyong entered ten yuan in his account, and there were more than three catties left.
Cai Quanwu said: "We have wine, let's go to my place to drink it today, and I'll give you the whole hot dish." ”
Liu Dezhu drank wine, nodded and said, "I'll see it." ”
Qiangzi muttered a little, "This is not a lively ...... in the tavern." ”
"You're not going to pull it down." Liu Dezhu squinted.
Xu Deyong smiled and said, "I still have pickles from the bistro proprietress here, and I'll buy some peanuts and rice ......." ”
"Yes!" Qiangzi immediately said: "Just rush the pickles of the tavern proprietor, and the brothers will walk ......." ”
……
After drinking, it was already dark, and Qiangzi was greedy for a cup, so he fell drunk directly at Cai Quanwu's house.
Liu Dezhu was also a little swaying when he walked, Xu Deyong drank half a catty, and his face was slightly red.
Who said that wine mixed with water is not intoxicating!
Cai Quanwu sent the two out of the door and said, "Dezhu, why don't you also stay with me for one night?" ”
Liu Dezhu waved his hand and said, "No...... No, my wife will be waiting for me to go back...... ”
Xu Deyong said slightly drunk: "Nothing, you go back and look at Qiangzi, don't let him vomit and choke himself to death, I'll send him back." ”
"Hey, Deyong, you're still angry......." Liu Dezhu smirked and said in a low voice: "You have to teach me the 'cylinder lifting technique', you are my own brother's ......." ”
There is no one else who is still worried about this thing!
Xu Deyong ignored him, said goodbye to Cai Quan, and sent him home with the goods.
Liu Dezhu's house is also a miscellaneous courtyard, but it looks relatively dilapidated, and even the door at the door is not clear.
The door is right, the so-called "door" is the "door pier" on the left and the right outside the door frame, also called the "drum stone", and the "door pillow" of the conjoined body is also extended inside.
"Toto" refers to the "hairpin" on the lintel above the gate, which is a wooden hexagonal ornament with a diameter of about seven inches and a column height of about seven inches.
Those who have "doors, households" are all people with status in the old days, and how to build them is also according to the class, and if they repair more, they will trespass.
Xu Deyong sent him to the door and turned around and went home.
Back at the door of the courtyard, he thought for a moment and took out the kettle and carried it at his side.
Then pushed the tricycle into the courtyard, Yan Bugui heard the movement and came out to take a look, and his eyes were fixed on the big wine jar behind the car.
"Yo, Deyong, where did you get this big jar of wine?" Yan Bugui leaned over as he spoke, taking a deep breath of wine, as if he could suck out a penny.
Xu Deyong smiled and said: "I took over a job of pulling wine, you smell it, it's empty." ”
When Yan Bugui heard this, he immediately put away his body and said, "Closed in the middle of the sky, I'm ...... Hey, go back, remember to close the door. ”
Xu Deyong shook his head and looked at his watch, it was only seven o'clock at this time, and the country advocated saving electricity, and some people who had no entertainment activities had already turned off their lights and rested.
In the era of poor contraceptive conditions, this is how many children came.
If you don't have to play at night, why don't you just play silver!
In the previous draft agricultural development program, there was also a provision that birth control should be promoted and promoted in all densely populated areas, except for ethnic minority areas.
Subsequently, some married families with children in some areas responded to the state's order and voluntarily got sterilized.
This was the beginning of the "family planning" policy.
It's just that the draft is not publicized with much fanfare, and there is no mandatory requirement in this era, and it is all voluntary.
Xu Deyong returned home and told his grandmother that he would go to Niulanshan tomorrow to pull wine for others, and that he would spend the night there.
Xu Nanshi immediately took off the headphones and came out and frowned: "Why did you go so far?" Wouldn't it be enough for you to pull some goods in the city? ”
Xu Deyong said: "If you take a trip, people will give you five yuan, how can you encounter such a job in the city." ”
He deliberately said half of it, after all, this is the normal price.
Xu Nanshi sighed when he heard this and said, "Then when are you leaving tomorrow?" ”
Xu Deyong said with a hippie smile: "You don't care about me, a person as big as me can take care of himself, I'll tell you, don't let me come back at night and be a shame!" ”
Xu Nanshi said earnestly: "Look at what you can, out of the city, there are not as many people as in the city, although liberated, but the road may not be peaceful, you have to be careful, don't delay on the road ......." ”
Xu Nanshi said a lot, as if he wanted to tell Xu Deyong all the experience he had lived for a lifetime.
"Don't worry, your grandson will go early and come back early." Xu Deyong waited for his grandmother to finish speaking before he said.
Xu Nanshi nodded and said, "I'll make meat pies for you to eat tomorrow morning, eat more and have the strength to hurry." ”
"Grandma better ......." Xu Deyong patted his ass.
"Hmph." Xu Nanshi couldn't help but smile and said: "Then you rest early to recuperate, grandma will find a piece of cloth to sew a mask for you, the outside is not as good as the city, the wind is blowing all over the sky." ”
"Well, grandma is still thoughtful!"
Speaking of masks, in the late sixties and early seventies, it became a popular symbol in society, regardless of whether it was a wanton city master or a big girl, there would be a white mask on the chest, not to wear it, but to ask for this white belt .......
Hey, it's also popular from generation to generation!
……
If the golden year does not come again, it will be difficult to regain the morning in one day.
Squats make people happy, and they can also make people happier!
He Yuzhu looked at Xu Deyong, who was exercising as well as eating and drinking, and deeply doubted that he still had a battle to fight.
This thought suddenly made him a little disheartened, and it seemed that he was ...... It seems to be a good ...... to be the second child.
No way!
He Yuzhu hurriedly shook his head and threw out this thought: "I can lose physically, but I can't lose mentally." ”
So he regained his mental exercise, and looked at Xu Deyong with "unkind" eyes.
Xu Deyong didn't know that he had carried out self-attack and counter-attack in a short period of time.
However, the look in this product made him dislike, and he glanced at him and said, "Want to try it again?" ”
"Don't try!" He Yuzhu said confidently.
Xu Deyong's death glare made him stop.
At this time, He Yushui came out yawning and called Brother Yong.
"Hmm." Xu Deyong nodded and said, "I'm not coming back tonight, I can talk to your grandmother after school." ”
He Yushui's eyes lit up and said, "Okay, then I can listen to the radio more, hehe." ”
……
After the exercise, Xu Deyong opened today's blind box.
As soon as his mind moved, a short shovel with a handle appeared in the blind box space.
Yes, this is to let yourself open the road and build a bridge in the mountains and waters.
This morning, the meatloaf cooked by grandma was particularly fragrant, Xu Deyong ate four, and drank two bowls of sweet potato porridge with sticks.
Before leaving, his grandmother wrapped two more in clean cloths for him to eat hungry on the way, and asked him to fill the kettle.
Xu Deyong can be described as "fully armed", "one set on the surface and one behind the back", even if the tiger is blocking the way, he also dares to give a tiger whisker.
Hey, I don't know if the tiger whip effect is really as god as the legend?
Saying goodbye to his grandmother, Xu Deyong pedaled the cart to the front door tavern, and walked in when he saw the door open.
Xu Hui was really looking through the previous account books, and almost didn't dare to recognize him when she saw his dress.
Xu Deyong took off his mask and said, "Boss, I'll move the wine jar." ”
Xu Huizhen smiled lightly and said, "You are quite well prepared, have you eaten?" ”
"I've eaten it." Xu Deyong said with a slight meaning: "No way, who let us have a grandmother who loves us!" ”
Xu Huizhen asked casually, "What about your parents, what are you busy with?" ”
Xu Deyong scratched his head and grinned: "It's gone when I was very young, and the situation was turbulent at that time, so I didn't have much impression!" ”
Xu Huizhen said in a low voice: "I'm sorry." ”
Xu Deyong said: "It's all in the past, after all, the sky doesn't know when the wind and rain will start, and people don't know when the blessings and disasters will come, so you can remember the past, but you must cherish the people in front of you." ”
Xu Huizhen met Xu Deyong's gaze, and for some reason her heartbeat was half a beat faster.
She sighed lightly and said, "You're right, in fact, my situation is similar to you...... ”
At this time, the child's cry came, and she hurriedly said, "You move by yourself, I'll take care of the child." ”
Xu Deyong said: "You are busy. ”
He walked to the gap between the tavern and the courtyard, and there was a shed built against the wall, and he picked up an empty wine jar that could hold fifty pounds in one hand, and went out and put it on the cart.
Four trips back and forth, a total of eight wine jars were pulled, and there were more than 400 catties of wine.
He also used hemp rope to wrap and fix the jar.
It is nearly 50 kilometers to Niulan Mountain, and it takes five hours to ride 10 kilometers in an hour, but there is no road at this time, and it is a gravel road after leaving the city.
After tidying up, he went in to say goodbye to Xu Huizhen.
After Xu Huizhen fed the child, she wrapped a few steamed buns, pickles, and powder intestines for Xu Deyong: "Keep these things to eat on the road, they will be eaten when the weather is cold, and they will be hot when they arrive." ”
Xu Deyong patted the cloth bag and said, "I brought two cakes baked by my grandmother." ”
Xu Huizhen couldn't help but push it to him: "Take it, it's not a bad thing to bring more food." ”
"Cheng, then I'll go."
"Slow down on the road."
Xu Deyong pedaled three wheels away, Xu Huizhen glanced at it and closed the door.
Turning around and taking a few steps, she suddenly felt a strange feeling rise in her heart.......
Then he pursed his lips and walked to the backyard.
……
Thank you brothers for every support
Grandma died, and every corner of life was dull, joyful, and hesitant...... And sadness......
I have time to write as much as possible, don't blame it if it's broken in the past two days, I was going to write more on the weekend, hey, next month
