After Goupiati returned home, he didn't tell her mother-in-law about the good people on the mountain. As usual, her mother-in-law complained that it was snowing and she didn't come back so late.The mother-in-law complained, and the dog urine moss said a few words, but his voice was so low that the mother-in-law couldn't hear her, so the complaint became a soliloquy.After eating and feeding the pigs, he set the kang on fire, brought the urine bucket back from the toilet and put it on the side of the kang, and waited for his mother-in-law to cut paper flowers on the kang, then he sat on the threshold of the upper room and looked outside. snow.The mother-in-law complained about something, but he ignored it for a while. The mother-in-law took the scissors and tapped on the edge of the kang, and the dog urine moss asked loudly: What's the matter?The mother-in-law said: Are you going out again?The dog urine moss said: Where can the snow be so heavy? !The mother-in-law didn't believe it, so the dog urine moss took a rope and tied one end around her waist, pulled the other end into the bedroom and tied it to the mother-in-law's lap, and said: "Now, don't you worry about it?"Gou Niati sat on the threshold again. After a while, the mother-in-law cut the paper flowers into obsession, and Gou Niati watched Xue Ye fascinated. The mother-in-law forgot her grandson, and the grandson also forgot her. The mother-in-law and grandson even forgot themselves.Whose cat is meowing spring again, is there still a cat meowing spring in such a cold night?The cat's name is Chun, which is not so attentive and joyful anymore, like a crying baby who wants to eat and drink.Maybe at the entrance of the alley, maybe farther away from the entrance of the alley, under the Eucommia tree, someone is talking: "Where are you going, Lao Shun?"Lao Shun said: I am looking for it back and forth.They were still talking, but they couldn't hear anything clearly, their feet fell silent on the snow, and their words fell silent on the snow.The dog urine moss was thinking, what is this snow in the sky, piece by piece, is the sky shedding dander?Or is the cloud falling down?If the snow keeps falling like this, will it fill the yard overnight and block the door?Well, when I get up tomorrow morning, of course it is the mother-in-law who gets up first, and opens the door to take out the urine bucket. When the door is opened, there is a snow wall outside. Smothered!He just thought it was fun, smothered to death, smothered to death, it was better to suffocate to death in such clean white snow than to be buried in that wet dirt.Of course, this was intentionally said, and the mother-in-law said: Don't say unlucky words!He stopped talking, and felt suffocated at the same time, and his breathing was a little tense.The mother-in-law started calling for help, but her call for help could not be heard at all.So Goupiamos came up with a wonderful way, and started to boil the pot without adding any water, until the pot turned red, he held the pot and went out, the snow melted a hole immediately when it met the pot , He and Po got out of the hole.That's what Goupiati was thinking, and he became excited when he thought about it. He seemed to feel that he and his mother-in-law had come out of the snow cave, only to find that the whole village was deeply buried in the snow, and vaguely heard people from various families walking in the snow. Calling for help from the bottom, he took the pot and went to the place where the sound was heard to melt the cave. One after another, the snow caves were all made by melting dog pee moss with the pot. People, old and young, crawled out, some surnamed Zhu and some surnamed Ye It's a member of the Red Broadsword, and also a member of the Hammer Team. They are all boasting about his dog peeing moss, saying: Ah, dog peeing moss!Ah dog urine moss!

Suddenly, with the sound of linto, the thought of dog peeing moss was interrupted. He was stunned for a moment and realized that he was sitting on the threshold. what.ah? !The dog urine moss immediately closed his breath and looked at the courtyard wall with his eyes. The snow on the top of the courtyard wall was very high, just like the third aunt sprinkled flour little by little with her hands when she lent noodles to Yuer's wife. The snow on the ground formed a spike, and the thing thrown in was black on the snow in the courtyard, not moving, not a living thing.The dog was a little scared, and hurriedly tiptoed into the bedroom. The mother-in-law was still cutting her paper flowers under the lamp. It was a bunch of red paper that she picked up in the river beach during the day. Some notice on the wall of the small wooden house was scratched on the river beach, she picked it up, ironed it, and then cut it, and cut it all over the bed, like red flowers blooming on the bed.Gou Niati told her mother-in-law that there seemed to be someone outside the gate of the courtyard, but she didn't hear clearly, so Gou Uitai gestured anxiously, and the mother-in-law understood, so she blew out the light, and hurriedly poked her finger on the window paper to look out. A black shadow had already appeared. On top of the courtyard wall, he jumped in again.The mother-in-law pulled the dog urine moss onto the kang and covered it with a quilt. She slipped off the kang, held the scissors in the dark, and tucked the scissors under the kang mat. Then she stood behind the door of the upper room and asked softly: "Who is there?" ah?

Hei Ying walked in and said in a low voice: It's me, Cang Po. This is Tianbu.Then came the stove.The mother-in-law yelled in surprise, and said, "Is it Tianbu stove fire?"Tianbu said: "Silkworm mother, silkworm mother!"The mother-in-law patted Tianbu's arm, and the mother-in-law confirmed that the sky cloth and the stove were in front of her, so she lit the lamp and came back muttering, why did she come back at this time, then patted the snow on their bodies with her hands, and wiped their eyebrows and beards. of snow.The snow on the eyebrows and beard is not wiped off, and it is frozen.

The dog urine moss got out from the quilt in the corner of the kang, and looked at it with wide eyes. He saw that the sky cloth and the stove were holding guns, and he was frightened and motionless.Zaohuo winked and said, "Don't you recognize me?"The dog urine moss said: Is it a ghost?The mother-in-law said: What nonsense, get up and go to the gate of the courtyard, and watch!The dog peeed, but the mother-in-law gave Tianbu and the stove to cook some hot soup. Tianbu stopped the mother-in-law. He was telling the mother-in-law that he would not eat or drink. There was no time. They came back to pick up the mill.The mother-in-law said: Take the mill?Tianbu said: Pick it up and leave.He put the gun down and leaned against the edge of the Kang, and put his hands over his mouth to keep warm.Goupimo went to touch the gun, but retracted as soon as it touched his hand. The gun bit his hand in the cold, and he said: "The mill is still in the village?"Zaohuo said: You don't know this, he is still in the village all the time.Po and Tianbu were talking in a low voice, which meant that they came to pick up Mozi and go straight to Mozi's house. They were afraid that the goal would be too big. Come here and escape the village.But the mother-in-law was nervous, she was worried that the dog's hands and feet would go wrong, and she was also worried that the dog would not be able to talk if she met someone, so the mother-in-law said: I'll go.The mother-in-law went out, carrying a lantern, but the lantern was not lit, and she took a mahogany stick, just in case she bumped into anyone, and said that the dog had a high fever and came out to scream for the baby.

As soon as the mother-in-law left, Tianbu asked about the situation in the village. Goupiati told him everything he knew, and asked Tianbu if Huang Shengsheng was killed by throwing a stone over the walking tractor?Tianbu said: Huang Shengsheng is really dead?The dog urine moss said: dead.Tianbu said: Very good, the Hammer team will continue to die.The dog urine moss didn't dare to say any more, but asked: How did you take the mill out?Tianbu said: Don't worry about it.Gou Uitai said: How can you not care, you have come to my house, if people see it, then you will kill me and my mother-in-law.Tianbu said: I didn't come to your house because I thought you were talkative, but when I went to Tian Ya's house, Tian Ya was not there, so I felt that no one was paying attention to your house.Goupiamos said: Something happened to Tian Ya, and he was caught in the Kiln Temple.Tianbu said: Damn it!The stove was looking for something to eat in the kitchen, but found nothing, and the dog pee moss said: Aren't you not allowed to cook?There are fried noodles, let me mix a bowl of fried noodles for you?Tianbu said: What fried noodles do you eat?As soon as the mill comes, you have to leave quickly.But the stove said: You look for a cloth bag.Gou Niomai found a cloth bag, filled half a bag of fried noodles with the stove fire, and put it in his arms, and said, "Give me two eggs, and you can mix fried noodles with eggs."The dog pee moss didn't want to give the eggs, so he went to the straw basket where the chicken laid eggs on the upper steps of the room, and said: Did the chickens lay eggs today?The mother-in-law and the mill went into the courtyard.The Mill Man was as thin as a ghost, but he was wearing his wife's blue shirt and a papa wrapped around his head. He walked with his waist curled up, and sat there panting as soon as he entered the door.However, Tianbu and Zaohuo didn't let him rest and said they would leave immediately.They chose the route, going out from Gouiamos's house, going west along the alley, going around the side of the village to Da Nianpan, going down to the back depression, then going around the east side from the back depression, crossing the state river at the reed garden. , from the root of the mountain across the state river to the west.Tianbu carried a gun on his back, and raised another gun, and Zaohuo carried the mill on his back.The mill said: I can still walk; the stove said: I carried it on your back, you walk fast, and you walk slowly after crossing the Zhou River.The mill said: Brother, brother!Zaohuo said: Don't say anything this time!When he was about to go out, Tianbu asked Goupitai to go out first and set up a sentinel in front.The mother-in-law pulled the dog urine moss and said, "Tianbu, I'll go."The dog urine moss wouldn't let her go, neither would the sky cloth and the stove fire. The mother-in-law looked at the sky cloth and the stove fire, and the sky cloth said: let's go.The mother-in-law went to tell the dog pee moss to brighten her eyes and sharpen her ears. When she kicked down to tie the dog pee moss' shoes, she whispered: "If there is something wrong, you should hide first. Don't be brave. Learn better.Dog pee moss said: I'm fine.But the mother-in-law didn't hear what Goupiamo said, so she set up a stool and took off the portrait of Chairman Mao from the wall of the middle hall, folded it up and put it in Goupiamos's arms, and said: "Whoever wants to beat you, take Chairman Mao." Like covering your head, Chairman Mao bless you.

The dog pee moss went out of the courtyard first, and there was no one in the alley. He imitated Mao Miao, and Tianbu Zaohuo and Mozi followed. They kept a distance of several feet, just like that. Going around to the edge of the village, Goupiatai suddenly leaned against a tree and stopped moving.He saw a black shadow approaching from the back wall of the house in front, and he yelled three times in a hurry, and the three people behind him also leaned against the wall of a toilet and did not move.The dog urine moss is ready. If someone comes in front of him, he will climb up the tree. Although he can't climb the tree, he can climb to the right of the tree.However, it was the dog who came over, the dog of Lao Shun's family.Lao Shun's dog walked up to Gou Niati, and Gou Uitai hissed, but the dog didn't bark.The dog seemed to have already known the route, and went all the way to the back of the big millpan, and even went down to the gentle slope of the back depression.After leaving the village, you can breathe a sigh of relief, and the dog pee moss said: This dog is so good!Tianbu also patted the dog and said: Hey, not bad!The revolution is successful, I'll give you a little bitch!The dog sat on the ground and wagged its tail vigorously.Dog urine moss said: This is what you said, don't coax it.Tianbu said: I don't coax it, all the bitches in Gulu Village can belong to it!All four of them laughed in the dark.The dog pee moss led the dog back to the village, Tianbu said: Let the dog go back, you have to wait until we cross the Zhou River.Dog urine moss said: Still waiting for you to cross the Zhou River?It would be better to go with you.Zaohuo said, "That's fine, just come with us."Where can Goupimos go with them?He said something to the dog, and Lao Shun's dog turned around and went up Manpo again, so he continued to serve as an outpost, walked around the back depression to the east of the village, and then headed south to the reed garden.The snow is still falling, and everyone has a thick layer of it on their bodies. The dog pee moss is walking very fast, a few feet away in front, looking back at Tianbu and the others. If you don’t pay attention, Tianbu and the others seem to be invisible , he waited for them to catch up, and said: You make a wish for the dog, and you don't say anything to me.Tianbu said: Is that coaxing the dog?The dog urine moss said: How can you coax a dog?Tianbu said: Oh, don't coax, don't coax, what do you want?Goupimos said: I don't want to do anything, I just want to be like a cowbell.Tianbu said: I just said you wanted watermelon, but it turned out to be just a sesame seed, is that all right?Go ahead now.Gou Niati ran forward, feeling that he was asking for too little. He should also ask for an increase in work points. Why should he be credited with three points of work? At least one day of work should be the same as women's work points. point.Also, if you go to school next year, you will not be able to work. Can you do this: go to school during the day, and come back at night to record work points for everyone at the husband’s room. He can read and is fully qualified to record work. A clerk is definitely better than a horse spoon.But just as Dogpiss was thinking this, he slipped and fell headlong in a snowdrift, and all those thoughts were gone in a flash.He got up, wiped the snow off his face, didn't feel too cold, and licked the snow on his lips with his tongue, the snow had a sweet smell.At the road station far away, there was still a gas lamp burning, and there was a figure shaking in the light, and then a car came, and the light shone over, four people hurriedly lay down on the ground, and the light came again. After a while, there was a rattling sound, the car stopped at the truck stop, and many people began to check and cursed loudly.Tianbu and the others quickly ran across the road while they were checking the car, but Gou Momo didn't keep up, and he stayed in the snow nest on the side of the road.He vaguely watched Tianbu and the others cross the highway and run towards the reed garden. Afterwards, they couldn't see or hear anything. For a while, he didn't know whether to run across the highway to catch up with them, or lie down here and wait for them.He just lay there for a long time, and suddenly felt that he was waiting stupidly, they came to pick up the mill, now that they have picked up the mill, can they come back and send him home?He got up and walked back along the original road, but he said in his heart: Huh, I didn't keep up with you on purpose, can I go with you?There was no sound from the reed garden, and there was no sound from the state river. The car on the station started again, and the car drove away again. The gas lamp was still on in the dark night, and everything was quiet.Knowing that Tianbu and the others had escaped safely, Goupiati walked back to the gentle slope of the back depression, while Laoshun's dog was still lying there.

Goupimos excitedly picked up the dog. The dog was so heavy, but he carried it away anyway, with the dog's long tail resting on his neck.The mother-in-law was still waiting for him in the house and cooked him shredded radish soup.The dog urine moss didn't go to drink the soup first, he wanted to reward Lao Shun's dog, so he pooped for the dog in the corner of the yard. When the dog urine moss was still shitting, he made up his mind. He would drink radish soup on the kang and tell his mother-in-law about the way they went to deliver the mill, about Lao Shun’s dog, and about the one on the Kazhan. Car, he is no longer a sloppy dog ​​pee moss, he is nimble, calm, and able to use his brain at critical moments, for example, he made a request to Tianbu, for example, he did not cross the road and came back early.However, Goupiati never expected that just as he was pulling up his pants in the corner of the courtyard, the stove turned around and came.Why did the stove come back? Did the mill not send it out? Did he think he hadn't crossed the road?In the upper room, all the radish soup made by the mother-in-law for the dog's urine moss was drunk by the stove alone. He told the mother-in-law that Tianbu had successfully led the mill across the Zhou River and escaped from Nanshangen. When he came back, he was the one who wanted to save the people in the political training class.The mother-in-law is really scared this time, and the mill can be picked up quietly, but there are so many people in the political training class, and there are still people guarding the gate of the Yao Temple, how to save the stove fire?The mother-in-law said: Zaohuo, why did you tell me this?How did you let me know about this?Zaohuo said: Don't be afraid, I'm going home tonight to live, I just came to put one thing here, and I'll pick it up when I find a chance.After Zaohuo finished speaking, he handed a bag wrapped in old clothes to the mother-in-law, and then really went out and went back to his house.

As soon as the stove fire was gone, the dog pee moss was about to open the cloth bag, but the mother-in-law wouldn't let it open, so she hurriedly hid it in the corner of the courtyard, covered it with rice stalks, and said: "This is our disaster!"The dog urine moss said: Why do we have disasters?The mother-in-law said: He will inevitably cause trouble in the village, can the hammer team not realize that he has been to our house?What the mother-in-law said was right, and the dog pee moss also became scared.The mother-in-law said: Doesn’t Niu Ling have an aunt in Xichuan Village? You and Niu Ling will go to his aunt’s house for a few days tomorrow morning.The dog urine moss said: what about you?The mother-in-law said: I can't go anywhere, the stove left things here, we all left, what should he do if he comes to get them, we can't afford to offend anyone.The dog pee moss said: What if the hammer team is looking for you?The mother-in-law said: I am a dead pig and I am not afraid of being scalded by boiling water.

The mother-in-law and grandson talked until the middle of the night, and fell asleep separately, but after a while, the dog woke up again, and he heard a nice sound, which flowed like water, floated like clouds, like Whoever sings seems to be not a song, but a variety of musical instruments, such as the erhu, pipa, flute, yueqin, and gongs, drums, and cymbals. The harmony played by various instruments, Gou Niati has never heard all kinds of sounds.He sat up suddenly, it was not yet dawn, and the mother-in-law was still asleep.He said: Po, ah po, did you hear that?The mother-in-law also woke up and said: "It's not dawn yet, what are you shouting, what did you hear?"The dog urine moss said: Where is the opera!The mother-in-law listened, but she didn't hear, and said: Are you dreaming?Gou Uitai also thought that he heard the sound in a dream, and then listened to it, it seemed that the sound was still going on, but it was just vague.The mother-in-law still didn't hear it.Dog urine moss said: Your ears are stupid.When he listened again, there was no sound at all. The snow outside the window was rustling on the ground, mice were crawling over the roof beams, and a handful of dust fell.
