A Hei Koshi 沈从文 5573Words 2018-03-19
Wuming's aunt, who was married to a remote place, was an old lady who was fifty years old. Because she heard that Wuming's nephew was begging for a wife, she brought a lot of gifts and rushed here from afar. This widow, who was quite old, let her son live alone in the city to enjoy the blessings, while she guarded some hillside fields to live.During the holidays, I would come to the oil shop once to see it. When I came, I would always send a basket of food to Wuming and his son with a basket. When the aunt came, Wuming and his son were very happy.Because my aunt can do everything a mother can do, mend clothes, make shoes, make dried vegetables, talk and laugh, this family needs such a woman!Uncle Mao, who has a strange temper, often has nothing to say because of the old sister's continued advice. He only said that he asked his aunt to pay attention to Wu Ming's marriage.Now, without waiting for his aunt to help, Wu Ming decided to choose his wife first.

The aunt who came here to have a drink has a role as a matchmaker besides drinking.Not only is she a matchmaker, she is also the master of the Wuming family.She is also Ah Hei's godmother.She is sending off relatives again.So this old lady came to Wuming Youfang more than a month ago.Although she came here a month ago, she was busy all day, and she seemed to be a little late. Because there is no woman in Ah Hei's house, the godmother moved to Ah Hei's house again to help Ah Hei prepare the dowry.Seeing this goddaughter all day long, and seeing Wuming all day long, the old lady often cried with joy.Seeing Ah Hei's situation, the old lady forgot that she was fifty years old, and often remembered the stupid things when she was a bride.

She was also deeply afraid that Ah Hei would have no one to teach her, and she would be at a loss when the time came, so she instructed Ah Hei many things in the tone of an elder, and told Wu Ming many things behind Ah Hei's back.Such a good person, how could she understand that the recent young men and women have to be reported to this matter, that is really strange. When it came to his aunt, the boy was so well-behaved that he made the old man feel sorry for him.My aunt always said, son of Wuming, you look like a grown-up, and I am worried that you are not a grown-up in many ways.If this was said by another person who knew the secret, Wu Ming would blush.Because when you say "I'm not an adult", it's nothing more than pointing out that Wu Ming is ignorant, but is the word "not sensible" enough or superfluous?So naive that I don’t know whether it’s sunny or rainy, I want it when I want it, I have to eat when I’m hungry, and I break up when I’ve had enough, I’m not really an adult!An adult should pay attention to temperance and stinginess. Even if it is Ah Hei's body, Ah Hei's laughter and tears, he should not just take it as soon as he wants it, and let it go again.

Among the villains, Auntie saw that Ah Hei was much more mature than Wu Ming.In front of the godmother, this person does not say stupid things, criticize others indiscriminately, is not lazy, and does not lack respect for the elders.A well-behaved woman is often able to show a certain kind of virtue to a certain kind of people, and can show a certain kind of benefit to another kind of person. She handles it properly and gets praise everywhere.For example, this old aunt thought she was demure and fell in love with her, but Wu Ming fell in love with her like Guanyin Bodhisattva just because she was not very responsible in some places.

The day is coming, eight days away.In the past few days, Wu Ming didn't feel happy. Although Ah Hei is a member of his own family from now on, and when he wants to be naughty, he can no longer make excuses or evade, but who has seen someone take his wife to the mountains to mess around?The weather is good and the fun is good. Although it is suitable for doing all the things you want to do on the mountain, Ah Hei is not, and Wu Ming can see this.After getting married, Ah Hei's status went to Wu Ming, but all benefits were lost.In terms of status and fact, Wu Ming didn't value this marriage as a convenient choice.In the month before the wedding, Wu Ming had lost a lot of convenience and felt bored; as the day of the wedding was approaching, Wu Ming was becoming more and more anxious every day.

Today at Ah Hei's home, he met Ah Hei with his aunt by his side. When my aunt saw Wu Ming coming, she seemed to think it was wrong.She said, "Why aren't you shy, Wuming child?" "Auntie, I'm here to pick you up from the oil workshop, and today we're killing chickens." "Why didn't your father cook the chicken and bring it over here?" "For the other ones, the pick-up uncle will also go there, and only she (referring to Ah Hei) will eat at home." "Then you can accompany Ah Hei to have dinner together. This is your wife. After ten days and a half months, you will still be together!"

When my aunt said this, it meant that Wu Ming might not agree, but deliberately used words to embarrass the boy, to test the boy's courage.In fact, I can't wait, that's what Wu Ming means.For the past few days, his heart, feet, and hands were itchy, but he had no chance to be alone with Ah Hei.Today is a blessing from heaven, it is a good opportunity.He really wanted to sneak around and be a lover for a few more times before becoming a bridegroom, but when his aunt asked this question, he could see what her aunt meant, and he said, "How can that be?" My aunt said, "Why not?"

The boy had no words to answer, but if it was like this, it was obvious that he was a very shy person, even if his aunt was here as a bodyguard, he didn't even dare to pass Ah Hei's door. Ah Hei didn't comment on these words, the boy seemed embarrassed by his aunt's sincerity.Wu Ming pretended to be insane, and everything was as it should be, which only made Ah Hei laugh in his heart. Unexpectedly, my aunt had something to say, so she asked Ah Hei again, "How about it, do you want to be alone?" Ah Hei lowered his head and smiled.Smiling seemed embarrassing to my aunt, but in fact, Ah Hei smiled and Wuming was anxious, deeply afraid that Ah Hei would not allow his aunt to go, it was really something that kowtowed and had no choice but to do.

But no, my aunt said.She said no, because no one was with Ah Hei. Wu Ming stared at Ah Hei for a while, then quietly pouted at Ah Hei, bowing with his fingers.Ah Hei pretended not to see him, and he didn't say that his aunt was going, and he didn't say that he was going.Ah Hei was making shoes, he lowered his head and bit the thread on the upper with his mouth, looked up at Wuming, and smiled. "Aunt, you can go, otherwise...you will be angry." "Who would be mad at me?" "There must be someone," said Wu Ming, who was frightened by Ah Hei's eyes.In fact, if this sentence is said by Ah Hei, it will have the same effect.

But Ah Hei said, "Godmother, you go, so they don't have to wait." "Go, of course. I want Wu Ming to accompany you. He's embarrassed. I'm sorry, so I won't go." "If your old man doesn't go, or you must keep him here, he will cry." Ah Hei said this without raising his head, which was just showing that he was joking with Wu Ming. "You old man, just go with him. Some people are born with such a temper. When they persuade him to eat, they just shake their heads and say that they are not hungry. In fact, he..." Wu Ming didn't want to listen anymore, and shouted loudly, saying that he was not hungry. I can't go, and I will leave after dragging my aunt.

My aunt got up naturally, but she still had to wash her hands and change her apron. "Wu Ming, what are you busy with? Is there something on your mind that you don't want to stay here for a while? " "Waiting for you to eat! I still have to play cards, waiting for you to go to the table!" "My aunt has lost all her money in the past few days, so you can borrow it." "I'll borrow it. I'll ask the accountant to get it." "Wu Ming, you've been really generous lately. If it wasn't for the fact that the bride is already in hand, I would have suspected that you wanted your aunt to be a matchmaker to please you so courteously!" "Besides being a matchmaker, of course I also need an aunt." Ah Hei said without looking up.Wu Ming pretended not to hear. My aunt said, "What do you want me to do? My aunt is old, she can only hold children, and she is useless for other things." My aunt is a good person, and her words are also good, but those who listen must also be able to listen. Now it was Ah Hei's turn to pretend not to hear, and clapped his hands on the new shoes loudly, while Wu Ming laughed. Not long after, Ah Hei was left alone at home, still thinking about some stupid things while holding his shoes, laughing when he thought it was funny.A person suddenly jumped into the room like a dog, which frightened her. No need to tell who this person is.As Ah Hei said, "Persuade him to eat and shake his head, and steal it when no one is around."Her surprise was nothing but that the thief came too fast. Still not raising his head, he only cared about his shoes, and said: "Ghost, why did you come here?" "Why, don't you understand?" "I don't know much about the things in the ghost's belly." "I want you to understand." Wu Ming's method was to turn Ah Hei's head and point it at himself; eye to eye, nose to nose, mouth to mouth.He did something silly, biting Ah Hei's lip with his teeth, Ah Hei who had been bitten, looked sideways at Wu Ming's hand.The hand was the right hand, and as usual, it had the meaning of playing wild. Once I saw it, I retracted it and rubbed it to my ear. This boy's air is beyond the reach of famous artists.His actions and his heart cannot be expressed in words.When it comes to whether the person is good or bad, or beautiful or ugly, words are not an easy thing to deal with, let alone a situation that goes beyond good or bad.Don't yell, don't threaten, see the opportunity in everything, see the style, this is the strength of every man in true love.This advantage cannot be obtained through education, and it is impossible to use this advantage outside of love. For example, if Wu Ming is required to compose poems at this time, it is naturally impossible.However, he performed a poetic scene that a poet could not write with all his efforts, but it was just right and surprising. "Wu Ming, you should go back, otherwise they will laugh if they don't see you." "I left you because I was afraid they would laugh?" "You're not afraid, why does my aunt want you to stay here, but pretends to be useless, and dare not accept?" "Why am I so stupid to let her make fun of me in front of dad." "At this time, how could they not think that you are here?" "Think! I'll make them want to laugh, I don't care!" At this point, Wu Ming snatched the shoe from Ah Hei's hand and threw it into the hemp basket. He asked someone to hug his waist so that Ah Hei's hands were not allowed to hinder him.Ah Hei didn't want to fight for the shoes, because he knew it would be useless to fight. "Chun officials don't walk when they enter the door unless they are sent. It doesn't matter if it's rice or money. You need a little bit." Moreover, the rules were created in the past, and following the rules is the one that this kid remembers most, so all Wuming needs Yes, in both cases of dodging or generosity, there is nothing wrong with it.Now, needless to say, as Wu Ming wanted, Ah Hei's work has changed, and she is giving a kind of charity that Wu Ming wants. Wu Ming said, "You understand that I'm here. I need someone to hug me." "Then go to the field and ask the broker who sells rice in Baodou to hug you for a day. Why do you have to come here?" "My waist was born for your hands." Ah Hei smiled and exerted some strength.Wu Ming's words are very sweet, if it doesn't make sense, it sounds a bit disgusting, the so-called talking enemy.He felt that Ah Hei was exerting force, and said, "Sister, after a while, you won't be so strong, I judge you." Ah Hei tried harder.She said, "Ghost, why do you think I have no strength?" "Of course, sure, you..." He said, and since his hands were on Ah Hei's shoulders, he turned his hands from behind Ah Hei to touch Ah Hei's stomach. "This is what my aunt told me. She said what, don't be afraid, you will become a woman. - She won't know that you have learned a lot. She doesn't doubt me. She was very afraid when she told me Someone listened. ——She said that as long as three or four times (finger fingers), something will grow here, and it will grow bigger every day, and then you will naturally lose your strength." Having said that, the two of them laughed together thinking of their aunt in the dream. Thanks to this good man, he was able to tell so much good knowledge in front of the soon-to-be bridegroom!It's also thanks to her that she lived to be fifty years old and learned so much!However, if you remember how Ah Hei and Wu Ming spent their lives in the past six months, you can understand what kind of joke this is.Did Ah Hei want Wu Ming to be the groom to turn her into a woman? Did Wu Ming need his aunt's advice to deal with Ah Hei? "Ghost, you are so short-lived! I interrupted before finishing a sentence." "You only suspect that you interrupt her because you are too embarrassed to listen." "Ghost! You ghost just make my teeth itch and want to bite your face!" Wu Ming didn't ask Ah Hei what he was talking about, but all in all, his face immediately turned on him. Since he said bite, please feel free, he is not afraid at all.My aunt's worry was really pitiful to the old man. Things had long been in all kinds of weather and all kinds of new places, and he was trained to get used to it like picking bamboo shoots and shallots.How could Wu Ming be afraid, and how could Ah Hei be afraid. Carrying his family behind him, one of them quietly rushed back to hug Ah Hei. It was easy to understand what Wu Ming had to do besides hugging him.When his bad thoughts changed in his behavior, he said to Ah Hei in an aunt's tone, "Don't be afraid of this." This genius is full of poetry. This is not acceptable!The weather is not the spring and summer that make people mess around, but now it is really the weather that is only suitable for the well-behaved couple to be caught head to toe!Even if you are not afraid, it will not work.It’s not without reason, Ah Hei has something to say. "Little devil, there are only ten days left!" "Yes! It's only ten days!" What Ah Hei meant was that as long as ten days, a person is a person of Wuming. Since he is a person of Wuming, he can do whatever he wants, so there is no need to be busy.Wu Ming felt that after these ten days, people lived together, ate in one place, worked in one place, and slept in one place. They argued for a while.The unruly ones are even more unruly than usual, and those who don't surrender persist longer than usual, never surrendering.Ah Hei has better reasons for not surrendering, one is at home, and the other is the cold weather.What my aunt told Ah Hei in another sense, Ah Hei remembered it.Home is not a place where you can be unrestrained. There are Bodhisattvas, gods, and ghosts. They are not afraid of punishment, but seem to be afraid of laughing.To lie to the living but not to ghosts and gods, many women often become more chaste because of this idea. "Ahei, do you want me to be angry, or do you want me to kowtow?" "As you like, you can do whatever you like, be angry, or kowtow." "You're a good man, I can't be mad at you!" "I'm not a good person, so just be angry." "You 'don't be afraid', my aunt said, you are afraid..." "Shit. If you want to be like this, kid, when my aunt comes back later, I will say that you are only good at lying to the old man, and you have done a lot by the elders Bad thing." Wu Ming is not afraid of embarrassment, in short, he is still obscene.When he said he wanted to sue, he said, "If you want to sue, please do so. But when she asked who she was messing with and how, I want you to tell her too. If you don't tell me, I can sue her if I can. 'Three or four times, something grows', why didn't you? I'm going to ask her!" Wu Ming was beaten, and he talked a lot today.Shuangshuang quoted her aunt's words as a joke, saying that before Ah Hei officially became a bride, something would grow slowly, and Ah Hei didn't tell him, and he didn't know.Although there are some things, they are not as big as what my aunt said.But if you ask Wu Ming, he doesn't know why there are children. He is no better than others.He only knows that the things that some people are said to be afraid of are interesting and fun, more interesting than climbing trees, swimming, fishing, and stealing loquats to eat.Of course, the flowers, birds and sun in spring are not for poets who live in metropolises. People like him can only spend a spring in vain.The good spring has passed, and now it is winter. I don't know the time, so I should hit it once or twice. Wu Ming, who was beaten, was born with low bones, and he was happier when he was beaten in front of Ah Hei.You can't let him mess around, you have to hit him twice.If you want him to make trouble, you have to fight.It's not that he was scared of being beaten, so he was honest, because he was beaten, he seemed to be able to replace that other thing.Most of the time, he would still like Ah Hei to bite him, and he would be happy if the bite cleared the pain.He couldn't abuse Ah Hei in any way.As for Ah Hei, most of them abused Wu Ming first.For the sake of the final victory and to stir up this kid's heart, he had to be beaten and scolded. After getting the strength from the mouth, he used his hands, his hands to attack from the void.On the one hand, he talks about peace, but on the other hand, he does not give up the rights he has acquired. He will do everything that people do. My aunt has been here for a month, and the weather has changed from late autumn to winter in this month, so no one can blame anyone for all the inconveniences!The weather was cold and he only came to pick up the bride, and the aunt came to help. Should Wu Ming be happy or complain under the weather and personnel?I have nothing to say! Wu Ming had already done something similar to kowtow, and it was useless, so he had to resort to getting angry.If he is so angry that he sheds tears, he must be coaxed by the person who made him angry.But coaxing is coaxing, and there are many ways to coax, and the one Ah Hei used to deal with Wu Ming's tears today was only that one.Seeing that Wuming's eyes were red, she only opened a pass, and allowed one hand to go to a certain place. After a while.Wu Ming is not enough, I think this is not enough. Ah Hei relaxed a little more. After a while.Still not enough. "My God, what are you doing?" "Heaven is to do the duty of 'heaven', above." "If you want to make trouble, I will leave and leave you here alone." It seems that he has seen through Ah Hei, and there is no need to answer what he said. Although he wants to leave, he still has trouble.He came here deliberately not to give Ah Hei peace.And it's not enough to decide to go.The only way to keep Wuming quiet is to try his best to be as restless as possible for a while.Knowing this method but not doing it, I can only blame Ah Hei for being a little older.A lover who knows temperance is a lover who knows how to love.But definitely not a lover who knows Wuming!Speaking of Wu Ming's events today, it can be said that Ah Hei did not "understand" Wu Ming.Wu Ming is not a "writer", so he doesn't have much to say in this situation. Although he is annoyed, he seldom expresses it.He had nothing to say when he arrived, and bit his lower lip to express his displeasure. Fortunately, the lower lip was bitten by myself. At this moment, someone came from the oil shop and said something was wrong.People looking for Wuming would come to this place all the time. In the eyes of the elders in the oil workshop, it was obvious that Wuming's ghost was empty. Someone said something happened and asked him to go back. Wu Ming, who is usually very obedient, is not this time. He said to the people, "Tell the family, don't come back, wait a while." I had no other choice but to vent my anger on the visitor, and after driving away the visitor, Wu Ming sat next to Ah Hei and just laughed alone. Seeing that this person was funny, Ah Hei said, "Take a look in the mirror and see how pitiful you are!" "It's enough for you to see me pitiful, why should I come to see me pitiful?" She really looked at it for a long time, and saw that she was pitiful. When she arrived, she took the new dowry pillow and showed it to Wu Ming. Today's weather is not very cold.
