Chapter 17 The wind blows and the thunder strikes - Section 5

Because of holding the sickle for too long, and because of her weak body, when Meiwen took a bowl of porridge from the pot to the dining table, somehow, her hands seemed to lose consciousness, the bowl fell to the ground and broke, and the porridge spilled all over the place. At that time, the teachers were all eating at another table, and when they heard the smashing sound, they turned to look at her. She squatted on the ground to pick up the bowl slices. Ximi's mother hurried over and said, "Sui (broken) Sui (broken) is safe, Sui (broken) Sui (broken) is safe..." In the evening, Ximi's mother said to Du Zijian, "His father, you have to find a way to stop her from working in the fields."

"What can be done?" Mom suddenly remembered: "The day before yesterday, didn't you say that the school still lacks a teacher?" Du Zijian said: "Hey, that's an idea, why haven't I thought about her?" "Wen Wen is more than enough to be a middle school teacher?" "I don't know if the superiors can agree." "Shouldn't the school find it for itself? Anyway, it's a private teacher's place, and there's no need to assign it from above." "I'm talking about Wen Wen is an educated youth. Can an educated youth be a teacher?"

"In the school over to Aunt Ximi's house, isn't there a male educated youth who is a teacher?" Du Zijian was a little excited, smoked half of the cigarette, then extinguished it, and lit another one... Later, my mother was not too anxious about this matter, because the farm work in the field finally got a clue, the wheat was cut, the rice seedlings were planted, the grains were shed, and the grain was put into the warehouse, so I could rest for a while. In the field, except for one or two water managers who appeared occasionally, it was difficult to see a single figure. People stayed at home as if they were afraid of this field.In addition to eating, adults only sleep.They are so sleep deprived that they wish they could fall asleep and never wake up.

The female educated youth hugged each other and cried after Captain Mao beard announced that they would "no longer go to work". Mei Wen just wanted to sleep, and when it was time to eat, she didn't want to get up. Mom twisted a towel for her and told her to wipe her face to wake up.Mom said: "You can't sleep like this, it will damage your body if you sleep like this." After about a week, she slowly regained her spirits.His face was a little tired, and his skin was reddened by the sun, showing some health.Lin Xiusui said: "The plum pattern looks better than before."

Mei Wen thought: It's time to take care of the fine sculptures. Summer vacation has started.For Ximi, this is the best time of the year, he can have nearly two months freely.He can soak in the big river all day long, he can have fun in the fields, and he can do whatever he wants.Unexpectedly, Mei Wen summoned him into that hut.He likes to carve everywhere with his knife, if possible, he can carve all over the world, leaving his mark on those huge colonnades, on those towering trees, on those tall gates .However, this is only when he is happy, when his hands are itchy.He didn't take it seriously, and he didn't understand whether it was a thing or not, and what value it had.However, Mei Wen was serious, and it was very important to take this matter very seriously.In the past, the more you stopped him from engraving, the more he wanted to engrave, but now when someone encourages him to engrave and watches him engrave, he suddenly loses interest.He felt that he was bound, and he was not as happy as before.The more Mei Wen looked at this matter seriously, the more seriously she asked him to do this thing, and the more she asked him to do it properly, the more he felt uncomfortable. Habit.Those knives made him feel strange, and he didn't like them a bit.

Mei Wen said: "You should calm down, your heart is too wild." Mei Wen said: "It is meaningless for you to engrave as before. At most, you are a saboteur." She couldn't help but recall him back to the hut, following the steps she imagined, she led him resolutely like a wild cow. He had to obey her. From his parents to all the teachers in Daoxiangdu Middle School, they are all amazed by her power. She remembered Du Zijian's words: "He's just a naughty boy." She disagreed with Du Zijian's judgment, but felt that it made sense.Still, she felt confident.The object of Ximi's carving is wood, and the object of her carving is Ximi.Just like Ximi feels itchy when she sees wood, when she sees Ximi, she has a strong desire: I want to take him forward together.She believed in herself, and also in Ximi.

To be more precise, the reason why Ximi began to refuse sculpture is because when he entered the small room, he felt a kind of pressure-this kind of pressure was not there in the past when he was in Luanshi. Meiwen seems to know Ximi's state of mind well, and she tries to make him feel at ease.For example, today, it is already four o'clock in the afternoon, and she just came out to look for Ximi to let him go back to the hut - there is a work in the hut that has just started. Like all the children here, Ximi is very obsessed with Dahe.Often from the morning, he is immersed in the pleasure brought by the big river.

The sun is scorching, but the river water is cool, soaking in it is really happy. Girls also like big rivers, but a very important reason why girls like big rivers is that boys like big rivers. They like to sit on the bank or lean on the bridge railing to watch the boys play in the water. The red lotus root has been leaning on the bridge railing and watching. The fine rice in the water is like a fish.His body was slender and strong, as if his whole body was oiled, and once he started swimming in the water, few people could catch up with him.The exposed shoulders when swimming sideways look very much like a fish's exposed back from a distance.

The fine rice in the water is like an osprey.He can plunge tens of meters with one thrust, and the time he spends underwater is worrisome. The fine rice in the water is like a goose.When he was tired, he floated lightly on the surface of the water for half a day, then drifted away with the wind, and the big river became a bed, and he seemed to have fallen asleep. The red lotus root is fascinated by watching the fine rice in the water. Ximi also likes the red lotus root to see him in the water. The red lotus root is also responsible for taking care of Ximi's shoes and clothes. Mei Wen walked towards the bridge.

This is a bridge across a large river, an old wooden bridge with railings, very wide, curved, and the top of the arc is far from the water surface. When the water is small, a short sailboat can pass under the bridge without dropping its sails. The children of Daoxiangdu usually gather under this bridge for swimming.They dive here, swim to and fro under the shadow of the bridge, and when they get tired, they will cling to the bridge pillars at any time.They will also climb up the bridge pillars, then climb back and forth between the supports of the bridge, and finally climb up to the bridge deck.They will also sink into the deep water along the bridge pillars, and then catch one or two black, stupid big mouth fish that like to live around the bridge pillars. Many of their games in the water are related to this bridge. related.

The red lotus root saw the plum pattern first.She called out to Ximi who was getting ready to dive on the bridge: "Ximi, Sister Meiwen is here." Xi Mi turned around and saw Mei Wen walking towards this side. He gave up the diving height he had chosen and climbed up the arched beam that curved like a rainbow above the bridge. The red lotus root yelled, "Ximi, what are you doing?" Everyone in the water, on the shore, and on the bridge looked at Ximi. Ximi's body was like a lizard lying on the arch beam, crawling towards the vault bit by bit. Few people in Daoxiangdu have the courage to dare to climb the arched beam. Ximi felt the bridge shaking.He was a little scared and started to sweat all over.He wanted to retreat, but under the gaze of countless eyes—and because Mei Wen was not far from the bridge, he had no choice but to bite the bullet and continue climbing to the vault.When the wind blows, beads of sweat fall down one after another.Beads of sweat fell on Hong Lotus's face, she hugged his shoes and clothes nervously, she didn't know whether to call Ximi, she was afraid that her shout would surprise Ximi and fall off the arch beam, no Shouting, my heart hung in my throat again.She could only whisper in her mouth: "Xinmi, Ximi, slow down, slow down..." Mei Wen walked onto the bridge, when she looked up and saw Xi Mi crawling on the vault, she suddenly felt dizzy.She subconsciously supported the railing of the bridge with both hands. Ximi was suddenly fearless, and he slowly stood up on the vault.Standing straight, the sun shines on the back that is very wet with sweat.It was a slender, curvaceous back that shone bronze-colored in the sun. Ximi didn't jump into the river immediately.He has a heart for exhibition, so he is like a statue frozen under the sky. A large cement boat was about to pass under the bridge. The driver looked up at the fine rice on the vault and was stunned. He forgot to steer the boat, and the boat hit the bridge pillar heavily. The whole bridge trembled. Ximi lost his balance and swayed, but he managed to maintain his balance in the end. All the people booed a long time. Ximi slowly stretched out her arms.He has a sense of flying.He kept it for a while longer—he loved it, it intoxicated him. When people were staring at him blankly, he suddenly folded his arms in front of his eyes, and then leaped forward, forming a sharp sword with his hands, and rushed headlong, falling from the vault towards the river.With the sound of "dong", a splash of water burst out on the water. Mei Wen and Hong Lotus screamed at the same time, and immediately applauded. Ximi in the water could vaguely hear people's cheers, but he didn't get out of the water immediately.Because one of the worst things happened: when he plunged into the water, a strong upward recoil stream ripped off his underpants whose elastic band had lost its elasticity, and now he is naked! Xi Mi thought that Mei Wen and Hong Lotus were both watching on the bridge, and she was so ashamed.Holding his breath, he swam towards the reeds not far away based on his impressions. Everyone is watching the movement on the water. Ximi finally dived into the reeds.When he got out of the water, his face was already blue.Obviously no one could see him, but he still tightly covered his crotch with both hands.He drilled a dozen meters deeper, and then squatted there. Seeing that it has been so long and the fine rice has not appeared on the water, the people watching on the bank and the bridge can't help feeling a little nervous. The red lotus root was the first to shout: "Fine rice!——" Later, many people shouted: "Small rice!——" Mei Wen's hands were tightly grasping the bridge railing. When Ximi heard Hongou's crying voice, he squatted there and replied loudly: "I'm here!" Everyone let out a long breath. Red lotus root asked: "What are you doing there?" Ximi didn't know how to answer. The red lotus root asked loudly again: "What are you doing there?" Ximi saw a few ducks looking for food walk into the reeds and said loudly, "I'm looking for duck eggs!" Mei Wen said, "Ximi, it's time to go home!" Xi Mi thought: How can I go home?There was almost nothing he could do, so he squatted on the ground and resisted. Xiao Qizi is here.Xiao Qizi found a pair of little red underpants that were half-steady and half-flooded in the water.He pulled a bamboo from someone's fence, fished up the red pants, and then held it up in the air like a flag. I don't know who said: "This is fine rice." But everyone didn't think about the fact that Ximi's underpants were stripped by water, they just thought that a pair of small underpants floated from somewhere. Mei Wen shouted again: "Ximi, hurry home!" Xiao Qizi said: "He can't go home anymore, he won't walk out of that patch of reeds." He decided that the little underpants were made of fine rice. Xi Mi squatted in the reeds and said loudly: "Go back first, I will go back right away! I want to pick up duck eggs for a while! I have already picked up several duck eggs!" Mei Wen said: "Then we will wait for you on the bridge!" Just when Ximi was feeling desperate, Zhu Jingen appeared.He was groping for snails in the shallow pond among the reeds. He came all the way and came here just in time. Zhu Jingen asked in surprise, "Ximi, what are you doing here?" Xi Mi didn't know how to answer him. "Are you squatting there to shit?" Zhu Jingen subconsciously sniffed his nose. "You're the shit!" "Then what are you squatting there for?" "I would like to squat here." Zhu Jingen finally found that Ximi was not wearing underpants, and said, "Ximi, you are shameless, why are you naked?" Ximi quickly put her finger on her lips: "Shhh—" Zhu Jingen also squatted down, and asked in a low voice, "Why are you naked?" At this time, Ximi's eyes fell on Zhu Jingen's underpants. "Tell me, why are you naked?" He stood up, stood on tiptoes, crossed the reeds, saw the plum pattern, red lotus root and many girls on the bridge, and squatted down again, "If you don't tell me, I will tell them shouted loudly!" The moment Zhu Jingen stood up, Ximi had an idea.He pointed towards the depths of the reed: "Hold down, there are wild ducks laying eggs, where am I waiting?" Zhu Jingen looked deep into the reed. "I saw several wild ducks turning around just now, and I knew they were looking for a place to lay their eggs. I wanted to find a softer place, but the reeds were full of reed stubble and burr weeds. I took off my panties..." "Take off your pants for what?" "Didn't you see magpies and crows making nests? They fly around, looking for what they are looking for? Find cloth strips and come back to make nests. The cloth strips are soft. Last spring, one of my underpants was hanging on the fence to dry, and it was caught. A crow has gone away? My mother has been chasing it for a while. Our classmates also helped chase it.” Zhu Jingen said, "Why don't I know?" "You were sick that day and didn't come to school." Ximi looked into the depths of the reed, "I made a soft nest of my underpants and put them in the grass." "Have you seen the duck?" "I see. I bent over there to watch, and I saw it turning around the nest, and after a while, it jumped into it. After a while, it will almost lay eggs." Zhu Jingen was very envious. Ximi asked, "You don't want to let the wild duck lay an egg?" Zhu Jingen nodded. Xi Mi said, "Just now, I saw two wild ducks looking for a place to lay their eggs." Zhu Jingen looked at his underpants. "Take it off, and let me bring it to you quietly." Zhu Jingen was a little ashamed. Ximi said, "There are no girls here either." "Can wild ducks lay eggs on it?" "can." Zhu Jingen took off his underpants. Xi Mi took Zhu Jingen's underpants, and naughtily flicked Zhu Jingen's little guy with her fingers, then walked deep into the reed. When Zhu Jingen realized that Ximi was on Ximi, Ximi had already slipped out of the reeds in his underpants, plopped into the water, and shouted as he swam, "I'm coming!" Zhu Jingen rushed out of the reeds: "Small rice!—" Suddenly realizing that he was naked, he squatted down immediately. While Xiaoqizi was walking back and forth holding Ximi's underpants, waiting to see how Ximi would get out of the water, Ximi climbed onto the shore wearing his underpants. Xiao Qizi was stunned, so the flag in his hand fell down. Ximi saw Zhu Jingen's younger brother Zhu Yingen and said, "Your brother is squatting in the reeds with his butt naked." "Where are his underpants?" Ximi pointed to the underpants that Xiaoqizi had given up on and said, "There." At this time, Ximi's mother came over excitedly, saw Mei Wen and said, "Go home quickly. Ximi's father has good news for you." On the way home, Xi Mi kept asking, "Mom, what's the good news?" The red lotus root also entangled Ximi's mother: "Auntie, tell me." Mom said: "Your sister Wen Wen is going to be a teacher!" Ximi and Hongou's eyes lit up, they stood there motionless, and then ran towards the gate of Daoxiangdu Middle School, yelling one after the other...
