114 Chapter 114

The big banquet in the countryside, even in the cold winter, is still very lively.

The cauldron is on the outside, steaming hot, and the aroma of meat is overflowing. Each family moved out the tables, dishes and chopsticks, and filled the entire courtyard warehouse.

The warehouse could not accommodate the whole village at the same time, so it was divided into two groups, one group of men, one wave of women and one wave of children, exchanging vegetables and meals with each other.

Before Zhao Xinshan opened the banquet, he only said: "Everyone eats with an open belly, it's enough!"

The members responded enthusiastically, and the smiling faces hung on every face.

In fact, the meat of the two pigs was divided according to the pound on the spot, and the castration was sent to each family, and in the pig killing dish, except for the pig's head, which was well cooked, it was basically shaved clean and chopped off the broken bones and water.

But even so, the whole village was still very satisfied, and some of them rose up and sang directly. The taste of this moment is worth everyone's memory for a long time.

Joy in the cold winter is hot.

Even Soho is inevitably infected by the atmosphere, and the clouds turn sunny.

As the pig feast ended, fine snow fell in the sky, and the sweaty children ran out to play despite the shouts of their parents. The snow was getting heavier and heavier, and by the time everyone had cleaned up the table, the snow on the ground was thick enough to cover the soles of their shoes.

After the first half-sized boy picked up a cloud of snow and threw it out, the battle began. Even Fu Hang was not spared.

When the snowball hit his body, Fu Hang couldn't help but be stunned.

But as if the ban was lifted, the village boys unceremoniously threw a second snowball at him, and the third... Liu Xingxue couldn't get used to Fu Hang for a long time, and suddenly found a way to "take revenge", gathered a snowball, and smashed it at Fu Hang. Lin Haiyang's fists were invincible, Fu Hang couldn't escape, and it was impossible for him to be beaten passively, so he bent down and joined the battle.

At this time, everyone realized more clearly that they were still a group of young people with young children, who had not yet grown up and had taken on heavy responsibilities.

From the first shot, Zhao Keda hid behind the warehouse door vigilantly, afraid of fleeing rashly, and did not dare to move.

Soho is also a marginal figure, "clear" away from the center of the snow war, pretending not to care about looking left and right, just not looking at the excitement. The eyes of the two people intersect.

Su Ho took the lead in moving away, and then turned back unconvincedly, staring at Zhao Ke.

Zhao Ke waved at her with his palms facing down.

What about recruiting dogs?

Soho seems to be provocative, as if to say, "There is a kind of you coming".

She really can't say that Zhao Ke has a deep memory.

But Soho was even more reluctant to show his timidity, so he walked over with a hard head, "

What do you want to say?"

Zhao Ke pointed to Bao Xiaoyu, who was timid behind the crowd: "That little girl's family doesn't let her go to school because she is a girl, and she works at home every day, and she may get married in her teens in exchange for a bride price for her parents."

Su Ho had made up her mind, she would ignore everything she said, but Zhao Ke said it beyond her expectations, causing her to look over and frown.

She was favored by her father, and she didn't understand and hated cheap girls.

"The child's father is an educated youth, and his mother loves him to death, regardless of whether he has to marry a literate educated youth, and later the educated youth try his best to return to the city and abandon his wife and children." Zhao Ke pointed at Song Rui, "His mother took him into the city to find someone, and when he came back, he fell seriously ill, complained about the sky all day long, and caused his parents to die early.

Soho followed her fingers and looked at Song Rui, her brows furrowed even tighter. How can there be such a bad man? It's also not responsible.

Zhao Ke pointed to the roots of the tree that followed Niu Xiaoqiang's buttocks, "His mother is also a knowledgeable youth, abandoning his husband and children, he had a fever when he was a child, he was abused by his own father and stepmother and brother, and lived in a bean straw pile."

Soho couldn't help but scold: "Why is it so bad!"

Zhao Ke didn't echo her words, and pointed his finger at Chun Nier, "She, married into the Li Cun'er brigade next door, because she never gave birth to a child, she was scolded by her in-laws as a 'chicken that doesn't lay eggs', she was not allowed to eat at the table, and she was abused and tortured to the point that she was not human."

Soho clenched his delicate fists, and his sense of justice almost burst out, "No one cares!"

Zhao Ke looked at her with anger and his chest rose and fell, "We are working hard. New schools will be built next year, and all school-age children will be required to enroll; Shu Gen'er is nominally taken care of by the brigade, but in fact follows Principal Gu and Teacher Wu of our brigade primary school; The brigade found out about Chuniel's situation, and supported her to divorce and return to her parents' home under many obstacles, and now she follows the brigade to study and work every day. "

Soho's anger was slightly relieved, his teeth bit his lip, and he turned his head angrily, "You want to teach me a lesson again?" Zhao Ke said lightly: "No, just a casual chat."

Zhao Rui is her cousin, and she is naturally partial, willing to give him a chance, and hopes that he will get better.

But obviously they all made mistakes, and there is no reason why a man can turn back as a prodigal son, but the girl is permanently nailed to the pillar of shame. In the background of a snowball fight, Soho was silent.

She has actually realized that there is a difference between real life and illusory ideals. And living in such a real, barren countryside is fresh

A living group of people.

No matter how reluctant she wants to admit it, she has to admit that this trip has broken her illusion and innocence all along. In the end, she did not leave the scene in embarrassment, this absurdity, Zhao Ke took the initiative to give her a decent ending. Su He wanted to cry, but held back, and suddenly raised his head and shouted: "Zhao Ke is here!"

sp; The snow battle stopped for a moment, and the people who fought and watched all looked at it.

Zhao Ke couldn't help but take a half step back: ....

Zhao Yongjun, who had been beaten by Zhao Ke, raised a snowball and shouted like an uprising: Arrest people - there is revenge, there is revenge - it is too late for Zhao Ke to run, and a few boys outflank and encircle, forcing Zhao Ke to enter the battlefield. Director Zhao hunted geese all day long, and the anti-religious geese pecked his eyes. Soho looked at her and became a snowman for a moment, smirking proudly.

Then the next moment, Zhao Ke crossed the distance with a snowball and smashed into her people, and a small part of it went into her mouth.

Puff puff –

Soho angry, Zhao Ke!!

He grabbed a handful of snow and rushed in impulsively, only to be smashed in a moment.

Su He was not convinced, and he couldn't find Zhao Ke's figure in the white expanse, so he smashed a snowball at Zhao Rui to "vent". Zhao Rui was stunned by a piece of snow hanging on his clothes. Soho turned his gaze to Qu Qianqian.

Both hesitated.

Then, Qu Qianqian blinked, squatted down and grabbed a handful of snow and pasted it on Zhao Rui's face.

Zhao Rui is even more stupid.

And Soho didn't hesitate anymore, and threw Zhao Rui with his left and right hands.

Professor Su watched his daughter finally regain her lively appearance, and after being stunned, he happily raised his camera and took a lot of photos. With Zhao Ke joining, the battle situation expanded again, but in just a few minutes, he began to attack indiscriminately, and he didn't distinguish between the enemy and me.

The onlookers gradually suffered.

Zhao Xinshan was smashed by a snowball and lost his stability.

Zhao Siye retreated again and again on crutches to avoid the snow, scolding "no big or small" without a target and with all the goals.

Chun Nier was pulled in by Zhao Yunyun to become a friend, and even introverted children like Bao Xiaoyu and Song Rui also took up "weapons"... Snowflakes flutter in the sky, snowballs fly on the ground.

The battle on the front line was fierce, the rear was gradually lost, the participants covered the age group of six or seven to thirty years old, and the hundred-man melee was completely started.

/>

Professor Su and Soho left as scheduled, and many people in the village saw them off.

Before getting on the ox cart, Professor Su said to Zhao Xinshan: "When your village goes to the provincial capital to buy a tractor, the newspaper should be published, and you must go to the university to find me.

Zhao Xinshan promised.

Professor Su turned to Zhao Ke again and thanked him. Why thank you, he didn't say, and Zhao Ke didn't ask.

On March 18, 1975, the "Black Province Daily" published an article entitled "Prevention Before Trouble, the "Lucky Ones" Under the Great Flood".

The article, which occupies only a quarter of the space, tells the story of the difficult process of digging drainage canals to effectively prevent waterlogging and save half of the crops before the heavy rain, and how to quickly remedy the crops after the disaster, replant cabbage, and reduce the loss of waterlogging.

The picture is selected for the pig killing banquet of Zhao Cun'er's brigade.

One of the elements of journalism is that it is time-sensitive.

Half a year has passed, and people's attention to the heavy rainstorm in summer, which is rare in 20 years and spans a month, has long since dissipated, especially about growing cabbage, and the newspapers have long been written about it six months ago, and even the wording is much more beautiful than this article.

So this report didn't attract much attention at first, and it was only a small discussion.

It wasn't until two weeks later that the "Black Province Daily" again published an article entitled "Spilling Blood on the Land of the Countryside", and three weeks later, the "Mass Daily", which has a nationwide influence, published another article entitled "Faith Will Not Be Extinguished, Original Intention Will Not Change, and the Power of Educated Youth Will Write the Beauty of the Times."

The accompanying pictures are all photos of Zhao Ke and eleven educated youths taken by Professor Su.

A few days later, the Youth Daily reprinted it with a comment on "manpower defeats natural disasters". "Red Star Daily" published an article: "Living up to the time, youth shines in the countryside".

In less than a month, several newspapers such as "Capital Daily", "Radio and Television News", and "Yunnan Daily" reported one after another. The story about the "survival" of the Zhao Cun'er brigade in the flood is completely fermented.

The young returned educated youth resolutely stayed in their hometown to serve as the women's director, leading a group of educated youths and farmers in the countryside to shed their blood in a remote mountain village, from confused to positive, constantly moving forward, and constantly creating stories that caused a wide range of discussions.

Not only Zhao Ke's name, but also the names of the educated youth and individual members of Zhao Cun'er appeared in the newspaper.

Starting from Professor Su's article, just as he imagined at the beginning, the intellectuals of Zhao Ke and Zhao Cun'er have been set up as models and models for intellectual youth, and have become a torch in the confusion and decadence, illuminating the future of some people.

Especially Zhao Ke.

Professor Su returned to Shuangshan Commune

, also went to interview Secretary Duan and Director Wu of the commune, as well as the leaders of the bearing factory where Zhao Ke had worked, and everyone praised Zhao Ke.

Just a few words in the article, a vivid image jumps on the paper, and everyone who reads the article can feel her vigorous vitality and strong personal charm.

A bright future will always need to be created with both hands. There will always be hope for hard work, and if you don't work hard, there will only be an empty game. There is no end to learning, and knowledge has great power. The blood of young people is always hot, and they are always ......

Zhao Ke in the small village, when she didn't know it, became an idol that many people yearn for, and letters flew to the north from all over the country like snowflakes.
