He Bailing is going to take the art troupe exam!

The old women's captain Liu Sannier is bringing her grandson back!

Yu Xiulan and Zhao Ke sent Zhao Mian back from the commune, and brought back these two news, which caused heated discussions in the village.

The Yu brothers took the family to clean up the house for the old lady early, and Liu Sannier wanted to come back, which was something that the members of the club had known for a long time, but the date had not yet been set.

And He Bailing is going to choose the art troupe, which is big news.

Under the old locust tree -

A group of women brought cutting boards and pots full of beans from their homes, and chatted while cutting shredded beans.

Nearby, a few four or five-year-old children were chasing and playing.

Zhao Fangfang and Hu Hezhi's eldest daughter Hu Meng squatted beside Zhao Yi's milk, picked up the beans that fell on the ground, and asked curiously: "Milk, what is the art troupe?" ”

Aunt Dong jokingly laughed at her: "You girl has not seen it, the people of the art troupe are going to the army and the countryside to give condolence performances and transfer salaries." ”

Zhao Yi's milk sprayed her: "My great-granddaughter is still young, I don't know what's wrong, I don't know what's wrong?" ”

Aunt Dong didn't take it seriously, and said with a hippie smile: "Look at you, why can't you make a joke?" ”

"Old and indecent, use you to make fun of my great-granddaughter?"

Zhao Yimao said, the kitchen knife chopped down hard, and it stuck on the cutting board tightly.

Wang Laosan and his wife are out, Aunt Dong'er's status among women is rising, and she doesn't have a good way to speak, but now she is scared by Zhao Yi's grandmother, her face can't get over it, and she is unhappy, "A joke is so serious, do you talk less about others?" ”

Zhao Yini asked, "Who did I say?" I said your granddaughter? With an old skin, you are all day long' Fubao and 'Fubao', don't be ashamed! ”

"I'm ashamed, that's my granddaughter!"

Aunt Dong is right, she is Aiwu and Wu, she is the third husband and wife of the rare king, and she is also proud of the daughter they gave birth to, what's wrong?

"Eccentric, the daughter of the fourth family, why don't you leave your mouth?"

Of course, Wang Laosi and his wife are not likable, but the son is always the son, and Aunt Dong is speechless, and she doesn't want to break her about whether she is partial or not.

Zhao Yinu gagged a mouth, as if she had won another battle, and her eyebrows danced.

At this time, Mrs. Wei came out with a sentence: "Didn't you say that you won't let your little dream learn He Bailing?" What is the matter now, he is going to the Kaowen Art Troupe! ”

The implication is that the girl is good, and Zhao Yi's grandmother is not kind.

Zhao Yinian counterattacked: "You didn't say she 'can't be raised'?" ”

"I ......"

Mrs. Wei really said it.

Zhao Yinu pulled everyone into the water again: "Ma Jianniang didn't say that He Bailing is not dignified?" Tian Guizhi, do you mean that He Dongsheng has money to burn, and it is better to take care of his nephew and provide for his old age in the future? Didn't you say that she loves to show her eyes and doesn't let your son come to her? And you, didn't say she attracted bees and butterflies......"

Counting, no one's buttocks are clean, and they have more or less gossip about He Bailing.

He Bailing is the child He Dongsheng found in the barley.

At that time, after harvesting the land, the brigade organized members to go to the public to meet food.

In November in the north, on a snowy day, the little baby was wrapped in a thin quilt and lay in the yellow grass barley, and the scattered snowflakes covered her swaddling clothes and melted on her face, and she was so blue from the cold that her eyes could not be opened, and she still made a faint cry.

The tenacious vitality was bursting out, He Dongsheng felt the shock from life, and he didn't bear it, and under the opposition of the members of the same village, he took the child home.

The parents of the He family, who were still alive at the time, strongly opposed it and asked him to send the little girl away.

"It's not necessary to live or not, in case you can't live, it's you who is uncomfortable."

"Even if you feed, you are a big man, with a girl who has no blood, do people pay attention to you?"

"You have a problem with your legs, it's hard to find a partner, and you have such a drag oil bottle, how can you live?!"

……

During that time, the door and the village were all like this, but He Dongsheng gritted his teeth and carried it, divided the family, fed He Bailing with rice soup, and raised her alone.

He Bailing is not a baby in the village, she is beautiful and has nothing to do with the countrymen, she loves to sing and dance, and she is conspicuous like an outlier.

Words like "love to show your eyes" and "can't keep it" are all light, and words like "attracting bees and butterflies" and "not serious" are also repeatedly deducted on the little girl's head.

The girl is too beautiful and "unstable", and her background is different, and the boys always love to revolve around her, and the parents' prejudice against He Bailing is getting deeper and deeper.

Most people in the village really want to say how malicious they are to He Bailing, because they don't just gossip about He Bailing, but also gossip about everyone, which is a bad habit.

Zhao Ke heard them arguing at the brigade headquarters, and when he got closer, he heard what they were arguing about, and said speechlessly: "You are just bullying the weak and afraid of the hard." ”

Only then did everyone notice Zhao Ke's appearance, and the person who was named by Zhao Yi's grandmother hurriedly defended -

"I just said it casually."

"I don't mean that, He Bailing's appearance, how can an ordinary family live there?"

"I also think she looks handsome, and her heart must be high, and she can't look down on my mud baby......"

"It's the old sister-in-law of the He family who said that she is a scourge, and I am learning from her words......"

Zhao Ke said: "You see that the little girl has no one to maintain, so she talks casually, compares her heart to her heart, and wants to put it on your own children, and you must not tear other people's mouths?" ”

Hu Meng hugged Zhao Yimi's legs, and said in a childish voice: "Grandma Wang is joking with me, my grandmother is about to tear Grandma Wang's mouth just now, and it's not right to talk nonsense." ”

Zhao Yi's grandmother slapped her like ashes: "You girl, what are you talking nonsense......"

Aunt Dong'er was also a little embarrassed.

Zhao Ke: "Look, children know the truth, you adults don't have a little bit of morality." ”

When becoming the protagonist of gossip, no one is not uncomfortable, it's okay if the heart is strong, like Zhao Ke, she doesn't care what others say about her at all, and if she is not strong, even if her ears can't hear, her heart is being abused by words.

Fortunately, He Bailing's childhood was not only them, but also He Dongsheng, Teacher Wu, and other kind children, otherwise the beautiful flowers would definitely wither if they grew on absolutely barren land.

Zhao Ke taught directly: "If anyone really does something wrong, everyone can condemn it, He Bailing is picked up, beautiful, loves to sing and dance, what is wrong with her, why did she get these grievances in vain?" And the children are all around you, always teaching by word and deed, not afraid of bringing them badly? ”

Many people had a look of shame on their faces.

Over the past year or so, the atmosphere in the village has changed, the bitterness in the village is not so heavy, things are in a hurry, everyone has experienced more, and their thinking is slowly changing.

If you put it aside, no one will reflect on it, because everyone is like this, and they don't feel that there is anything wrong at all.

But now, a group of adults of them didn't keep their mouths open, as if they were bullying a little girl, it was really excessive, and it was inevitable that they would have a disturbed conscience when they were pointed out.

Everyone said embarrassedly-

"There's nothing wrong with He Bailing, ha......"

"He Dongsheng can eat a hot meal when he goes home, which is quite filial."

"It's just singing a song and dancing, unlike some girls who are more naughty than boys......"

When this sentence came out, the women subconsciously glanced at Zhao Ke.

Zhao Ke's heart is not short, "What do you want me to do?" ”

She's not naughty, it's all other children who are naughty.

The women immediately looked away and automatically corrected the contents—

"What do you think she's doing, good boy?"

"As if you didn't say it."

"It's not that Sister-in-law He said it all day long......"

Zhao Ke: "Listening to the wind is rain, it makes sense." ”

The women immediately changed their minds --

"Don't say it, He Bailing's girl really has those two times, I've heard her sing, it's so good."

"I've heard it too."

"If he can be admitted to the art troupe, He Dongsheng will have a basis for the rest of his life."

"Blessed."

The more they talked, the smoother they became, and they began to deviate again.

&nb

sp; "I don't know who her biological father is."

"It's definitely not a good thing if the kids throw it away."

"That is, if He Dongsheng hadn't picked it up, he would have to freeze to death."

Zhao Ke didn't participate in their gossip anymore, there were just a lot of people, and told them: "There are five places for sauerkraut factory workers in the brigade, and whoever of you is interested in going to the brigade to sign up." ”

The women cheerfully agreed, "All right." ”

When Zhao Ke turned around and walked away, the women's topic continued, but not around the workers of the sauerkraut factory, but around Zhao Ke.

"The girls in our brigade, one counts as one, whoever is with Zhao Kebi, it doesn't matter what."

"Don't talk about our brigade, the entire commune can't be counted."

"Haven't introduced her yet?"

"Who dares, please have a big Buddha at home."

"Fu Zhiqing is not ......"

"I look at the hanging ......"

Grandma interrupted their gossip: "Don't talk about it, you're making a mistake again......"

Everyone was stupid, "What's the point of that......"

Don't gossip, chatting is boring, everyone is interested in cutting the last bit of bean shreds, and each goes back to their respective homes.

Zhao Yimao led her great-granddaughter to the brigade office, asked her to look at the cutting board and beans outside, and entered the house alone with a kitchen knife.

She walked to the table and put down the kitchen knife casually, and the kitchen knife collided with the table, making a "dang" sound.

Zhao Ke's gaze swept over.

Zhao Yinian pushed away the kitchen knife and explained: "I'm afraid that my little dream will touch the knife, not to scare you." ”

Zhao Ke asked calmly: "First milk, come to sign up?" ”

Zhao Yinu nodded, staring at her to confirm: "I remember, you said that Hu Hezhi could be selected." ”

"I mean, the odds are high." Zhao Ke paused, imagined Hu Zhiqing, who was full of sauerkraut, and didn't play dumb riddles anymore, "Actually, if you inquire, you should be able to find that everyone is not very keen on the work of the sauerkraut factory......

There are not many people to grab the job, and it must be easier to get it.

Zhao Yimao waved his hand, "He is holding a book decently every day, he can't carry it on his shoulders, he can't do heavy work at all, it's better to go to the sauerkraut factory, so he can earn a few wages, not by us." ”

Zhao Ke glanced out the window, and Hu Meng was outside.

Zhao Yimao glanced at her eyes, guessed what she was thinking, and said: "Don't worry about useless hearts, I don't know what I can say in front of my children at such an age, and why can't I say it in front of my children?" ”

Zhao Ke: "......"

It's better to really know.

"Hu Hezhi can go to the sauerkraut factory."

Zhao Yina got what she wanted, picked up the kitchen knife and left.

·

The women of the village realized that they had been bullying a little girl for years and that it was still not good when they returned home.

What is Zhao Cun'er's brigade now, as a cadre, if there is something to teach a lesson, it is not polite at all, the lesson is over, it is over, it is changed, and it will not wear small shoes to make a trip.

This is the ethos that has been brought down from above.

So the members of the brigade, they can't wipe their faces, they can't wipe their faces, they are really ashamed, if they don't do something to make up for it, they can't get over it.

As a result, the small courtyard of He Dongsheng and He Bailing's father and daughter suddenly became overcrowded.

"You ......"

"Are you ...... too?"

The women looked at each other.

They really didn't make an appointment, but they didn't expect to meet by chance at He Dongsheng's house.

Since they met by chance, everyone didn't laugh at anyone, turned to He Dongsheng and He Bailing, and smiled kindly.

Zhao Wuni said kindly: "Dongsheng, didn't you hear that Bailing is going to the Kaowen Art Troupe?" You have to dress up and don't lose to everyone else in terms of appearance, right? ”

She didn't say He Bailing's gossip, she was pulled over by Zhao Yinu.

He Dongsheng responded to these young and old ladies in the village who were not easy to mess with: "Ah yes." ”

Zhao Yimao took the lead and opened the cloth bag in her arms, revealing the red clothes and red-headed flowers inside, "This is what Fangfang bought when she got married, I originally left it for my little dream, try it for Bailing first." ”

As she spoke, she shook off the red clothes and compared them to He Bailing.

It was the first time He Bailing was treated so warmly by the women of the village, his face was flushed, and he was so overwhelmed that he even forgot to refuse.

Or Mrs. Wei squeezed Zhao Yimi: "How glamorous is this, which is what a little girl can wear?" ”

Zhao Yinian retorted: "The little girl looks good in fresh colors...... Girl, try it first when you go in, and change it if it doesn't fit. ”

She pushed He Bailing into the house to change.

He Bailing hugged the red clothes, dumbfounded.

He Dongsheng looked at Zhao Wumao, "Fifth aunt ......"

Zhao Wuni said with a smile: "Go in and try it, try it, don't be afraid of anything." ”

He Bailing had to go in and change.

A few minutes later, she came out in a big red dress that couldn't even show her hands.

"Beautiful!" Zhao Yimao opened her eyes and said nonsense, "I'll comb your hair again." ”

He Bailing didn't dare to move.

Zhao Yimao stood behind her, combing her hands together.

For the first time, a woman other than Teacher Wu combed her hair, and He Bailing's eyes were a little red.

Zhao Yina grabbed her thick hair with one hand instead, spit out two mouthfuls of saliva, and brushed He Bailing's head.

He Bailing: "......"

Move? What moved?

Ahh......hh

Zhao Yinuan coiled her head without a single hair, and put a red-headed flower in her dry hand, and stood away with satisfaction, "It's good-looking." ”

Mrs. Wei was disgusted, "Where is it beautiful?" ”

Others also felt bad, but they didn't dare to say it directly.

Someone took out a set of green military uniforms and handed it to He Bailing, "Try this again." ”

He Bailing went into the house again and changed into a green uniform.

It still doesn't fit, but it's a little more pleasing to the eye than getting married in red clothes and red heads.

Everyone pointed at her, studied it for a long time, changed her hairstyle with two braids, and put on a green hat.

It's also pretty, but it's not amazing enough.

Su Limei brought her a set of shirts and trousers, and He Bailing changed them, but everyone was still not satisfied.

Teacher Wu heard that the women in the village were dressing He Bailing, and brought her blue and white Gebraji at the bottom of the box.

He Bailing liked it at a glance, couldn't wait to put it on, pinched the skirt and walked out.

The big guy looked at her blankly and sighed, "It's so beautiful......"

He Bailing blushed.

At the age of youth, there should be the brightest appearance.

Teacher Wu had a little melancholy in his eyes, and said: "Change the size of your waist, it is very suitable for Bailing to wear it to the Kaowen Art Troupe." ”

He Bailing was embarrassed to accept it, but he couldn't push it, but he really liked it, so he still accepted it, but he secretly decided in his heart that he must repay it.

The job of changing clothes was taken over by the best needlework women in the village, and it was guaranteed to be done before He Bailing and Chun Nier hit the road.

And Zhao Yimian and a group of women failed to come in handy, and began to rewhole the scene again.

They told Zhao Ke that He Bailing should be allowed to practice his courage.

They also have a heartfelt word, if the village doesn't dare to perform, wouldn't they dare to go outside again?

"Makes sense." Zhao Ke happily agreed, "I'll arrange it." ”

To scare ...... No, in order to help He Bailing practice his courage, Zhao Ke arranged a separate stage for He Bailing - that is, on the stage where the brigade usually meets.

Zhao Xinshan and Zhao Siye sat below with straight faces, and the members stood behind the two, all of them staring at He Bailing's performance seriously.

He Bailing stood on the stage alone, as if facing a great enemy.

This art troupe, it's not okay if you don't get in, the pressure is too great...... ：，n..，.
