It turned out that Donglai transferred to Xiguan Primary School in the county, and at the same time, the students in Chunhua's class also entered the neighboring village Wangguantun United Primary School "on a whole plate".

Although Wangguantun is only two kilometers away from Xingxinghe Village, Chunhua and her family have to pass several crop fields every day when they go to school, and at that time cycling was the business of adults, and they walked to school most of the time, and there was nothing during the day; It's just that later the teacher asked the students to go to school early in the morning to do morning exercises, but it was difficult for Chunhua and Ruyan to do them, because most of the morning exercises were before six o'clock, that is to say, the students in Xingxinghe Village had to get up at about five o'clock in the morning when it was still dark to "set off", at that time, male and female students already had a "gender consciousness", that is, male and female students each formed a team to go to school. For male students, it's nothing to be early or late; As for the female students, getting up too early, on the one hand, the parents are a little worried, on the other hand, the girls are indeed a little timid, especially when passing by the crop field with graves, they are always a little worried.

Later, in order to meet the needs of middle school, the teacher asked them to make up classes in the evening, so that several timid female classmates dropped out of school one after another.

Chunhua was originally a bold girl, because of her father's "genes".

Speaking of which, Chunhua admires her father. She once told her good classmates about her father's "heroic deeds".

When her father was young, he used to be a militia company commander. One year, during the wheat harvest season, the superiors asked the villages to guard the wheat to prevent the fruits of their labor from being stolen by bad people. According to the requirements of the superiors, the Xingfuhe Village Village Committee required each family to send someone to take turns on duty at night.

According to the regulations, two people were on duty this night, but it was unfortunate that when Chunhua's father and uncle were on duty, the uncle had a high fever that night, and the task on duty fell on Chunhua's father alone.

When the uncle said he was sorry, Chunhua's father patted his chest and said, "You can take a good rest, I'll do it alone!" So saying, he went with a small mat.

Early the next morning, Chunhua's father became a "hero". It turned out that the old man Decun, who was picking up dung early in the morning, saw a person lying on the grave from afar, and he thought it was a drunk, but when he got closer, it turned out to be the militia company commander Lu Youguang.

"Youguang, were you drunk last night?" The old man asked in surprise.

"No, I'm on duty." Chunhua's father rubbed his eyes.

"You're on duty at the grave, huh?" The old man asked in a trembling voice.

"yes, what's wrong?" Chunhua's father asked in a strange way.

"You're so bold!" The old man gave a thumbs up.

Since then, Chunhua's father has the nickname of "bold road" again.

Therefore, Chunhua is often proud of her father, and she always takes her father as an example in her actions.

As the saying goes, if you are not afraid of the dead, you are afraid of the living. Since the implementation of the evening make-up class system, Chunhua's female companions have become fewer and fewer, and only her cousin Ruyan is left to accompany her to school.

After dinner that day, Chunhua invited Ruyan to go to school as usual, and when they were about to pass by the crop field with a grave, they suddenly found a white thing turning around on the grave.

Ruyan said "ah" and pulled the spring flowers back.

Ruyan was scared out of illness overnight, and when her mother listened to Ruyan talk about what happened at night, she suspected that Ruyan was "possessed by a ghost", so she invited "Daxian" to exorcise ghosts; Strange to say, after Daxian muttered a few words, Ruyan also wanted to eat. But her mother asked Chunhua to say hello to the principal and said that Ruyan had dropped out of school. Since then, Chunhua's class has been a female student.

It turned out that the "ghost" that Chunhua and Ruyan met that night was Jin Ling's "masterpiece", in order to take revenge on Chunhua, he knew that Chunhua and Ruyan had to pass by the cemetery every day, so he put on a white cloth in advance, pretending to be a ghost to scare them, but he didn't expect to only frighten Ruyan, a "secondary character", but Chunhua was fine.

Jin Ling is a very vindictive person, he is now a "class cadre", and he originally planned to revenge Han Donglai for "one arrow this revenge", but he didn't expect him to transfer to another school, Jin Ling shifted the target to Chunhua, because Chunhua's father had "historical problems" and was being reviewed by the organization, and Jin Ling's father became the director of the village committee because of his meritorious exposure.

Once, the class selected "three good students", that is, people who are excellent in morality, intelligence, and physique; Chunhua's academic performance was the first in the class, and she should have been rated as a "three-good student", but Jin Ling, who was the class leader, insisted on saying to the head teacher that Chunhua's father "had historical problems" and was being "criticized" in the commune, and was not qualified to be elected as a "three-good student"; That's not all, the class organized a "literary and artistic propaganda team", and Jin Ling asked Chunhua to be friendly with him as a "condition for joining", but Chunhua refused; This made Jin Ling angry.

One afternoon, when her classmates came home from school, Chunhua tried her best to read a book in the school classroom for a while, which was the book "How Steel is Made" given to her by Donglai before transferring to another school--- she took out this book from the drawer and read it when she had free time, feeling warm in her heart. She was so fascinated by the reading, she didn't expect that someone would gently walk behind her and hug her from behind, when she turned her head to recognize Jin Ling's bewildered eyes, her mouth had been gagged, and then Jin Ling pressed down on the desk, and when she was about to rape, it happened that the head teacher came to the classroom。。。。。。 The head teacher reprimanded him for doing such a "shameless" thing as students, and Jin Ling used clever words, insisting that Chunhua seduced the "class cadres"; Chunhua is both aggrieved and indistinguishable。。。。。 If only Dad were still a village cadre!

She could no longer bear Jin Ling's exclusion and insults at her, and finally applied to the teacher to withdraw from school。。。。。。

But she never expected that after she dropped out of school, Jin Ling fell in love with her like a ghost.

In July 1976, a strong earthquake struck Tangshan, and the whole country panicked, and fear spread like a plague throughout the country, and also spread to Xingxinghe Village.

In July, it was a hot summer, and for safety, many young men spread out a cool mat on the side of the road where there were no houses in the south of the village, and lay down to sleep naked; The girls' families moved their beds to their yards and covered them with coarse cloth—after all, girls are not safe outside!

Because the yard of Chunhua's house is small, the family is worried about this, cousin Ruyan invites Chunhua to her house and be her companion---- because Ruyan's younger brother is with his partner at night, and his father is out to work and is often away from home, leaving only her and her mother at home.

The first three days of Chunhua and Ruyan's companionship were uneventful, but on the fourth night, there was a "terrible incident"---- Chunhua felt that in the middle of the night, there was a person lying naked beside her, and touched her with his hand, Chunhua shouted, waking Ruyan and Ruyan's mother awake.

Chunhua shone a flashlight on the bed, got out of bed and shone it again in the yard, but found nothing. Chunhua shrank into the arms of Ruyan's mother: "I'm scared to death!" ”

"Flowers, are you groaning?" Ruyan's mother came over with her shoes and asked, and when she saw Chunhua's face full of tears, she asked with concern; "Flowers, what's wrong with you?" Ruyan gave her mother a look: "Mom, you put the door on the top first." Ruyan's mother understood, and quickly put a wooden pole on the gate again.

Still uneasy, she took a picture under the bed and found a man's slippers that she had never seen before.

"Yan'er, is this your brother's slipper?" asked Ruyan's mother, holding the slipper.

Ruyan took it and shook her head: "This is not my brother's shoes, I bought his shoes, I recognize them!" ”

Chunhua also looked at it, measured it with her hand and said, "This is a young man's shoe, I have a way!" ”

The next day, Chunhua found the militia company commander Chen Guangyun and described the cause and effect, Guangyun took the shoes, dug Xiang for a moment, patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, leave it to me!" ”。

After Ruyan left, Guangyun tore a note, skillfully rolled up a cigarette, lit it, and put it in his mouth, thinking about where he seemed to have seen this shoe, but whose it was, he couldn't remember it for a while, and suddenly, he had an idea, and he thought about it。。。。。。

In the evening, after eating, Guangyun had already crouched in the corner of Ruyan's house, waiting for the rabbit. However, since eight o'clock in the evening, a few hours have passed, and it is almost twelve o'clock, and there is no movement, Guangyun thought to himself, am I misjudged? But just as he was about to go home, a figure staggered to the door of Ruyan's house, and a smell of wine came to his nose, Guangyun thought: The fox has finally appeared in its original form! Guangyun was about to pounce on him, when he heard the man pushing a bicycle drunkenly knocking on the door and saying, "Open the door!" "Ah, it turned out to be Ruyan's father. At this time, Ruyan ran over and helped her father to the house: "Dad, why did you go home today, why did you drink so much wine?" ”

"Today, an old brother has a treat, not far from our home, I thought it was not far from our house, so I went home!"

Guang used a flashlight to shine on his watch: it was already half past twelve. "Looks like we're going back tonight!" Guangyun muttered to himself in disappointment. He was about to go home when he suddenly saw a man step on him, and he also had a flashlight in his hand, and lowered his head as if he was looking for something. Guangyun held his breath and watched the man's every move. Suddenly, like a cat seeing a mouse, the man picked up the old sandals that Guangyun had put on the road and put them in his armpits, and was about to leave, but Guangyun pounced on him and screwed his arms tightly behind his back.

"Who? Why arrest me! The man exclaimed, but was blinded by a bright light.

"It's you!" Guangyun couldn't believe that this sneaky person turned out to be Lu Yongde's son Jin Ling.

"You're going to let me go!" Jin Ling said arrogantly; "How dare you arrest the son of the dignified village chief。。。。。"

Guangyun hesitated for a moment, and finally decided to tie it with a rope and kick him in the ass; "You, this crown prince, can't run away from you!" 。。。。。。

After Guangyun locked Jin Ling to the brigade headquarters, he recruited the members of the village committee to the village committee office. 、

When Lu Yongde heard his son's "ugly behavior", he slapped him without saying a word, and then said that he hugged his fists to the members of the village committee and said: "It's because I don't discipline strictly, I'll go back and discipline strictly!" After speaking, he pulled Jin Ling and left, but was stopped by Guangyun getting up: "This matter can't end so simply, right?" ”

"What do you want? You're a foreigner, don't be nosy! Is it possible for a child to go to jail? Yongde asked arrogantly, wearing his old military uniform.

"Then we have to make Jin Ling confess his guilt, right? Isn't that right? Guangyun raised his voice to encourage everyone, but most of them yawned, and one or two wanted to respond, and when they saw Yongde's knife-like eyes, they didn't squeak again; Considering that his uncle was powerful in the commune, he dared to have a bright road with Yongde's tough branch secretary and was not at home, and no one said hard words: alas, Guangyun is also lonely!

"You see, the eyes of the crowd are bright," Yongde said after falling and pulling his son swaggering home. That's the end of it.
