Chapter 14 seven young widows

Hu Yuyin lived in the house of a distant uncle in Xiuzhou for two months, and wanted to escape the limelight before returning to Furong Town. "Avoid when you are in the limelight", this is originally a negative method that common people often use to deal with certain disasters.Did you know that "you can't run away from the temple if you run away from the monk", can you avoid some disasters in the world? What's more, now that there is a unified policy in all corners of the country, no matter thousands of miles away, a phone call or a telegram can escort you back . For two months, what Hu Yuyin thought about day and night was the "temple" in Furong Town.She had only received a letter from a man, Li Guigui, who said something comforting to her, saying that the current movement in the town is vigorous, and the five types of members of the whole brigade are gathered in the town to give lectures, and they are detained in the team during demonstrations. in front of.It turns out that the chief executives in the town have disappeared, and the working group is in charge of everything.The head of the tax office who was a bureaucratic landlord was brought out and criticized.The militia also ransacked the homes of several households, and his butcher's knife was also confiscated.It's good to put it away, it's a murder weapon... I heard that this movement will also redefine the class division.At the end of the letter, she was told to stay away for a while, and never to reply.

Look at this useless man, his own family affairs, except for the pig butcher knife, there is no real word, everything is guessed by Hu Yuyin himself.For example, the chief executives in the town don’t show their faces anymore. Do you mean Director Lao Gu, Brother Man Geng and others? They have copied the homes of many families... Which families are they? Did they also copy their own new buildings? ? If you want to redefine your class status, will you give yourself a class? Men, men, are always too careless, too careless, and can't even write a letter clearly.The man never wrote to her again.Was Guigui arrested? The more Hu Yuyin thought about it, the more she guessed, the more frightened she became.She was like a hen locked in a cage because of guests in the house, and she had a premonition of disaster.But what this "big disaster" will be like, she has never heard of it, nor has she seen it with her own eyes.Are they the same as the scum and rubbish of the five types of elements, dressed in sloppy clothes, with black faces like ghosts, and primary school students will hit stones and throw mud balls whenever they meet them. Whenever there is any movement or struggle in the town, Let them be shown to the public first, and let the revolutionary masses scold, spit, beat...

My God, if the "big disaster" wants to make me fall into this class of people, how can I survive! No, no.I have never done bad things, said irony, or scolded cadres.On the contrary, I feel that Director Lao Gu and Brother Man Geng are members of the same family, father and brother.A woman who sells rice and tofu in Wei Town, how can she have any grudges against the new society, and what kind of hatred does the new society treat her, Hu Yuyin? Little, the new society will be better if I can sleep at night with peace of mind.If it weren't for the new society, a family like mine, with my looks, would have been kidnapped to some kiln on the big port!... No, no, the five types of elements are bad, they are black-hearted The lungs and black bones are scum and rubbish, and I can't get involved with them anyway.

At this time, in Xiuzhou County, where she lived, there were rumors that the work team was about to come down, and campaigns like land reform were about to start.Indeed, someone has come to the distant uncle's house and asked: "Where is this sister-in-law from? What class is the family? How long have you lived? Is there any certificate from the commune or the brigade?" He loves to be self-respecting, and he can no longer spend his days at his uncle's house in a stern manner, causing trouble to others. "It's not a disaster to escape, it's a disaster you can't escape." She decided to go back to Furong Town against the man's advice.It’s true, I didn’t expect that at this moment, the more you should be with a man! Even if a knife falls on your head, you have to go to the knife with a man! Even if you enter the cemetery, you have to share a hole with a man Eye.Yuyin, Yuyin! You are too bad! For two whole months, you left men alone, you are too cruel... Hurry up, hurry up, hurry up...

From early morning to dark.Along the way, she kept saying "hurry up, hurry up", like a small drum was beating the beat in her heart.She only carried a yellow satchel of the kind carried by working cadres, which contained a few changes of clothes and a flashlight.She only ate dim sum twice on the way, one was fried rice with eggs, and the other was two bowls of rice tofu.The alkaline water of the rice tofu is a little heavy, and the color is too yellow.It's not as good as the rice tofu sold by myself, which is pure white, tender and soft, and the oil and water seasoning is not as complete as it is for customers.The waiters in white aprons seem to be giving food to passers-by... Huh, whoever goes to his own rice tofu stall, talking and laughing, kissing, eating and drinking, put the bowl and get up, He will also shout: "Sister, let's go, the next fair."

When it was dark, Hu Yuyin walked to the entrance of Furong Town. "Which one?" Suddenly, a man with a gun burst out from the corner of the black wall and asked.Hu Yuyin recognized this person, he was a young boy from the rice factory.It turned out that Hu Yuyin went to the rice factory to buy the head of broken rice, but this young cub was always covered in white chaff and ashes, pestering her endlessly: "Sister, let me introduce you, the life of a single man is so hard!" "What should I do?" What?" "Just like my sister, fair and good-looking, with big eyebrows and big eyes."

"Bah! Bad guy, I'll make you an oval face, plum blossom feet ①!" "I just like my sister's water snake waist, and her chest is bulging high!" Director Lao Gu!" "Sister, you are so cruel!" "Go away, grandparents died early, and there is no coach!"...By the way, now that we are engaged in sports, the limelight in the town may not be over yet, So they stood guard at night.Even this kind of flirtatious youngster is promising and has a gun on his back. ① refers to the dog. "Ah, it's you, came back by yourself?" The young man from the rice mill also recognized her, but his voice was cold and hard, like a whip whipping in the night sky.Then, the youngest son ignored her and walked away with his gun on his back.If it were normal, he would have talked nonsense and acted like a beast.

Her heart tightened uncontrollably: "I'm back?" What do you mean? If I don't come back, will I send someone to catch him? She almost ran into Qingshiban Street.On the wooden boards of the shops on both sides of the street, some big slogans were painted and pasted everywhere.What was written, she could not quite see clearly.She tripped over the bluestone steps at the door of her old shop and almost fell.The old brass lock was still hanging on the door, and the man was not at home.But the copper lock is familiar, it is something left by my parents when they opened the inn.She took a short breath.But what about the new building next door? Why is the door of the new building covered with white paper strips? There are two more crossed.In this way, the new building was not only searched, but also sealed.My God, what's the matter? She frantically took out the flashlight from her satchel and shone it on the red-painted gate.A wooden sign with black characters on a white background was nailed across the gate: "On-site Exhibition of Class Struggle in Furong Town".What? My new building was confiscated by the government and an exhibition was held? Gui Gui’s letter didn’t even mention a single word... Jia Gui, Gui Gui! Gone? You still have things on your mind. When your woman came back, you didn't come to pick her up.

But she immediately understood that it was useless to find Gui Gui, this dead man couldn't even speak nonsense.Make a quick decision, she will go to Director Gu Yanshan first.Lao Gu is a cadre going south, he is honest, fair, and willing to help others.In the town, he was the only old revolutionary with high prestige and a good speech... She felt that she was walking on Qingshiban Street without making a sound, her feet were light, and her body seemed to leave the ground and fly at any time.She walked to the gate of the Zhenliang Station. The gate was closed, but a small door was still open.The old man guarding the door took a step back when he saw her, as if he had seen a ghost... What happened? People on the street in the past, especially those men, always had big eyes and a smile when they saw her. Yes, I can't wait to put my eyes on her body... "Uncle, is Director Lao Gu here?" She doesn't care whether the old gatekeeper treats herself as a ghost or a human being, anyway, she is looking for Director Lao Gu. "Ms. Hu, are you still looking for Lao Gu?" The old man turned his head to look inside the fence, and then poked his head out to look at the street. There was no one around, so he lowered his hoarse voice and said, "You Don't look for Lao Gu, he has been implicated in a big case, and you are also involved. It is said that he stole and sold 10,000 catties of rice from the state treasury to develop capitalism... He has been guarded day and night, thinking I can't find a single belt rope by searching for a short way...the poor man..."

Hu Yuyin's heart tightened... Ah, Lao Gu, Lao Gu is under guard... This is something she never expected.In her mind, in the town, Lao Gu represents the new society, the government, and the Communist Party... But now, he is looked upon by others.What bad things will this good old man do? This world was created by the blood and sweat of these people. Could he still turn against this world? Hu Yuyin retreated to Qingshiban Street.She looked up and saw the room on the west end of the second floor where Lao Gu lived, and the light was still on.She watched without blinking.Is Lao Gu sitting under the lamp to write a self-criticism, or is he thinking of how to deceive his guards and commit suicide? No, no! .You can't be wronged, the people in Furong Town will issue insurance tickets and name cards to the county and province for you.No matter what kind of person you are, the adults and children in the town don't know, you have only done good things and never done bad things... For a moment, Hu Yuyin even forgot about her own horror and disaster, but felt indignant about what happened to Lao Gu.

Ahh... I remembered that more than three months ago, Li Guoxiang, the female team leader of the working group, came to her new building, sat in the upstairs room full of new wooden utensils, and did a calculation for her. It was said that she earned more than 6,000 yuan selling rice tofu in two years and nine months, and it was also mentioned that someone Provided her with 10,000 catties of rice as raw materials... Look, Lao Gu is under guard now, it must be because of this... Ah, ah, one person breaks the law and one person is caught, the rice tofu is sold by oneself, and the money is earned by oneself, why? Do you want to blame Lao Gu? The money from selling rice tofu is still in Brother Man Geng's hands. Go find Brother Man Geng.Brother Man Geng is probably a person who is still in charge of the town.Brother Man Geng has long recognized himself as a godmother.Hu Yuyin still has a backer, and she can find someone in the town.Brother Man Geng is closer than her own brother...Hu Yuyin turned around and left, just left? She was walking, running, running.Her thoughts were a little confused, but still a little clear.Her feet are light, she walks without a sound, and her whole body seems to be flying off the ground... Ah, Brother Man Geng, Brother Man Geng, back then you couldn't marry me... You are from the party, so you can't marry A woman like me...but you hugged me and kissed me on the slab of the wharf by the Furong River.You hug me so tightly, your bones hurt.You swore that you will protect me in this life and in this life... Brother Man Geng, Brother Man Geng, the pier by the river has not been changed, and the blue rock slab is still there... You will still protect me Me, protect me... Brother Man Geng, Brother Man Geng, you have to save my sister, save me... She didn't know how to get across, or how to climb the slope... She knocked on the door of Li Mangeng's secretary.She rarely enters this door, but she is familiar with it and kind.As long as you have been to some places once, you will always remember them, and you will remember them all your life. The one who opened the door was Brother Man Geng's tall and big woman "Five-clawed Spicy". Seeing her, "Five Claws" took a step back in fright, as if seeing a ghost.In the past, the sisters and sister-in-laws in the town always looked at me twice when they met me, envious and jealous.Women are just jealous and jealous.But what's the matter now, why are the men and women in the town, old and young, seeing him is like seeing a ghost or seeing something unlucky. "Is Brother Man Geng in the house?" Hu Yuyin asked.She doesn't care what Man Geng's woman looks like, what she is looking for is the person who once loved her and swore to her. "Please don't come looking for him again! You almost killed him, he almost killed a whole family... a whole family of wives almost followed him to take the blame... Now the superior sent him to the county to reflect and study, carrying the bedding I went... Let me tell you, the 1,500 yuan stolen money you gave him was exposed, and he handed it over to the county working group..." "Ahh... man, man... oh my god, man, man without conscience..." Like a thunderclap, Hu Yuyin's ears were deafened and her brain was stunned.She was swaying, she couldn't stand still. "Man? Your man is so bold. He made a public statement that he wanted to assassinate the female team leader of the working group. Now he has gone to the cemetery!" As he said that, "Wuzhuola" closed the door tightly like a beggar.The door of her house is so thick and heavy. Hu Yuyin was about to fall, fell... She couldn't fall, she couldn't fall at someone's gate, she really fell at someone's gate like a lowly beggar... She didn't fall, but She didn't fall down! She was a little surprised, where did she get this strength... She walked lightly under her feet, and walked again, without any sound under her feet, and her whole body seemed to be flying again... Guigui, where are you? Just now "Five Claws" said that you want to assassinate the female team leader of the working group, you won't, you won't... You are so timid, and you meet a pine-haired dog and a crooked cow on the road, you They'd all run away in fright... No, no.Gui Gui, you are the last relative in the world... But you are not waiting for me in the shop, but hang an old brass lock on the door.What are you doing behind the cemetery? What are you doing... Fool, since ancient times, that is the place where people are buried in the town. No one dares to go there in broad daylight. What are you doing running there in the dark? Are you so courageous? Little, how can you go to the place on the back of the grave just casually! She was in a daze... But there was still a ray of lightning-like light shooting into her black and turbulent brain... Ah, Gui Gui, good Gui Gui, don't you... Gui Gui, Gui Gui, you won't Yes, no! You haven't waited for me to come back to meet you... She started yelling and ran on the bumpy dirt road, running like flying, but she didn't fall down...Look, I'm so stupid, I'm still crying, I'm still crying, I'm still in a hurry, isn't Gui Gui here? Here we come...it's Guigui! Guigui, Brother Guigui... Gui Gui was only twenty-two years old, and Hu Yuyin was only eighteen years old.It was a matchmaker made by an old butcher in the town.It was the first time Guigui met her. She was tall and slender, delicate and handsome, her face was as red as a monkey's butt, and she wanted to hide behind the door... My parents said, this time is good, little butcher, killing for a living... … At the beginning, he was also stupid, always comparing him with Brother Man Geng in his heart, and Gui Gui always failed to win.Yuyin gets angry when she thinks about it, feels sad and wronged, so she ignores Guigui.When they meet each other, they lower their heads, pout their lips, and call them "shameless" in their hearts.But Guigui is a real person, she doesn't say a word, she comes to the store every day to fetch water, chop firewood, sweep the floor, go to the roof to check for leaks, and go down the Furong River to wash the mosquito nets and quilts in the inn.Come and do it for a while every day, it's fast and good, and then leave when you're done.Parents feel sorry for not keeping him for dinner, but he always refuses, even refuses to wet his mouth... that is the neighbors.It is said that the old Huji inn cultivated well in the previous life, and picked up a kind-hearted cub Luo for nothing.He also said that Yuyin's sister is blessed. If she recruits such a groom, I'm afraid she won't have to touch her hands in housework from now on. She's more noble than being a girl by her mother's side... Strange, Yuyin doesn't like this Jiagui the more her parents and her husband The neighbors praised him more and loved him more.As for him, he also seemed to hold back a lot of energy, trying to make an appearance for Yuyin to look like.Later, this diligent person who couldn't rest for a moment even secretly took Yuyin's clothes, shoes and socks to wash.You wash, you wash! Diligent and diligent, Yuyin pretended not to notice anyway, ignoring you... She and Li Guigui would not fight or make peace, maybe it would take half a year.The ghost started, and slowly, unconsciously, Yuyin felt that Guigui was good-looking, delicate, gentle, and polite.It looks pleasing to the eye, pleasing to the eye.It takes a long time to see people's hearts.As a result, whenever Guigui didn't come to Huji Inn occasionally, Yuyin would be restless, and would stand at the door of the shop ten or eight times to check... This made her parents very happy, and the neighbors winked. laugh.What are you laughing at? In Yuyin's mind, Gui Gui has already compared Brother Man Geng... and Brother Man Geng has already married, and he has hired a shrew who is as skilled as him and can beat tigers to death.Why doesn't Gui Gui win than him? Gui Gui is her own, her husband, her own man... What's wrong with Gui Gui?When she and Guigui got married, they were so ostentatious and beautiful. A group of fairy-like girls from the county song and dance troupe came to sing opera, act as bridesmaids, and sang "Xigetang" all night.Later, some elderly sisters-in-law in the town said that Furong Town has a radius of hundreds of miles, and no matter how big the rich man's family is to marry a daughter, it is not as beautiful and ostentatious as Yuyin and Guigui's marriage... The wind is blowing, the grass is splitting to the two sides, the tree is falling to the two sides, and Hu Yuyin is running desperately... Li Guigui was by her side, accompanying her, talking to her... "Guigui, do you still remember? On the night we got married, those celestial figures from the song and dance troupe pushed the two of us into the bridal chamber and left. We are both tired. Singing songs all night, so tired. You fool, still blushing, still looking down, dare not even look at me. You go to bed without even clothes Dare to take it off. I am angry and funny. You are so afraid of being ugly, but you are like a bride... You are not afraid of being ugly when you are me? You are a fool, but you seem to be more afraid of being ugly than I am. Like my younger brother. (Alas, when the word 'man' was mentioned at that time, my face would be ashamed and my heart would beat.) I think, a person with such a temper like you will probably not scold me, beat me, and beat me. Docile in front of you... One night, we all fell asleep with our clothes on, and no one was touched. It's funny to think about it. The next morning, you got up before dawn, fetching water, cooking, and making noise I cleaned the main room and the door of the shop all night until I couldn’t even see a piece of melon seed skin or peanut shell. I don’t know. Acting coquettishly next to parents, from now on beside you... "Yes, Gui Gui, I just want to act like a baby by your side... But you fool, you are more afraid of being ugly than me when you become a groom. Do you remember? On the night of the second day of marriage, a magic lantern came to town There were no movies in our town at that time, but we had to watch a slide show once a month, right? Before liberation, we only had shadow plays and lantern shows in our town. I still remember that the slideshow was "Xiao Erhei Married" ". The pair of young men and women in the film are really good-looking. They met in the woods at night for freedom, and were tied up by the villains in the village office and sent to the district government. Look, look, my body Just next to you. You see, that’s called feudalism. Parents have to arrange arrangements, matchmakers have to talk about marriage, and village officials tie up people casually. Ah, it’s better that we were born in a new society, there is no feudalism, men and women Sitting together, no one came to tie it up. It was really dark that day, and there was not a single star in the sky. I remember you looked at it, and then put your arms around my waist. But you immediately shrink back as if afraid of being hot Go back, but tell me to catch you and pat you lightly. Just hug me, I am your woman, you are my man, and you are not a wild husband from anywhere... You also never let go of me... "Gui Gui, Gui Gui! When we are together, everything goes well. Because you always follow me, follow me, and listen to me. You still say that I am your commander and queen. You beat me What stupid metaphors? After watching a few old and new dramas, I used random metaphors. I was nice to you too, and I didn’t lose my temper. In those years, we never blushed... But we also have troubles, marriage six, It's been seven years and we haven't had a baby...Gui Gui! How much we want a baby! Without a baby, no matter how close we are, we are always dissatisfied, unfulfilled, and feel that it won't last long. Cubs are the fruit that grows on our tree Son, the meat that fell from the body.Cubs can make us stay together forever and never be separated... For this matter, I often cry behind your back, and you often moan behind my back.In fact, we both knew each other's feelings, but we pretended not to see it... It was because of this that we quarreled lightly afterwards, but the neighbors next door didn't hear it.Actually, you didn't blame me either.I blame myself... Later I became a little superstitious.I think it's because we two idiots get along with each other and respect each other, and we get too close to each other, and the "Zilu" is broken... We should be like other people, quarreling and scolding... Alas, Gui Gui, Gui Gui! Why don't you talk? You are always frowning. Why are you upset? Are you blaming me for not selling rice tofu or building that new building that was hit by the disaster? , we quarreled, and I poked you with the tip of a chopstick, because you wanted to sell it at a low price..." Hu Yuyin was running in the dark.She was delirious and her thoughts were blurred.The world is in a daze, and she is also in a daze.She couldn't even remember whether she took the ferry on the way back, or who ferryed her.She ran, ran.She seemed to be chasing someone in front of her.The person in front ran so fast, Li Guigui ran so fast, she couldn't catch up to him no matter what. "Guigui! You have no conscience, wait for me! Wait for me!" She yelled, "I still have something to tell you, and I only talked about half of it. I haven't discussed with you yet..." Behind her, it seemed that someone was chasing her, with loud footsteps, it was unclear whether it was a ghost or a human.She didn't bother to look back, it was important for her to catch up with her man.If you hear people say that ghosts walk without footsteps, then they are probably people.What are they chasing after? Hu Yuyin has nothing, nothing! Only four or two lives left.Don't let four lives be spared, and they still have to be criticized, fought, and tied? I want to be with Guigui, with Guigui...you just caught me and tied my hands and feet , I will also bite off the hemp rope and brown rope with my teeth... She finally climbed up the back of the grave.People say this is a world of ghosts, but she is not afraid at all.From ancient times to the present, the descendants of the town have piled up thousands of graves here.Good ghosts, unjust ghosts, long-lived, short-lived, evil, good, men and women, those who go to heaven and hell, all take a fancy to this geomantic treasure land and find their rest in three feet of loess here. "Guigui! Where are you? Where are you—in—?" The moon is dark and the wind is high, and you can't see your fingers.There are thousands of soil bags, and it is hard to tell which is the old tomb and which is the new tomb. "Gui—Gui! Where are you? You promised me——, your woman is looking for you——!" Hu Yuyin yelled sadly, her voice was drawn out, high-pitched and thin.This voice eclipsed all the cries in the world, like green phosphorous fire in the dark, flickering and flickering in the wilderness... Hu Yuyin scrambled in the cemetery with one foot high and the other low.She never fell all the way, but here she fell and fell so that she couldn't get up in the grave.As if to sleep in this grave for eternity,... "Sister Furong! Don't shout, don't look for it, Brother Guigui won't agree to you!" I don't know how long it took, someone picked her up from the grave. "Which one are you? Which one are you?" "Which one am I? You...can't tell?" "Are you a human or a ghost?" "How should I say it? Sometimes it's ghosts, sometimes it's people!" "you you……" "I'm Qin Shutian, crazy Qin!" "You five types of elements! Get out of here! Don't touch me, get out of here!" "I'm doing it for your own good, and I don't harbor any ill intentions... Sister Furong, you must be so sure, if you want to be more open, you must cherish yourself, the days are still long..." "I don't want you to come to this place to take pity on me... You are a bad person, a rightist..." "Sister... Li Guigui has been classified as a new rich peasant, and you are..." "You spread rumors! Which one is the new rich peasant?" "I don't coax you..." "Hahaha! I am a rich farmer! A rich farmer who sells rice and tofu! You villain, are you trying to scare me, scare me?" "I'm not scaring you. I'm telling the truth. There's nothing false about it." "Not fake?" "The tortoise doesn't laugh at the turtle, they all rest in the mud. They are all in trouble and commit crimes in the same way." "Damn it... the rich farmer... the surname Qin, it's all you, all you! On the night I recruited my relatives, you and a large group of goblins came to fight against feudalism, and sat in the Xigetang... you lost my lottery, Hall of Joyful Songs, Hall of Failing Disasters, Hall of Harming People... Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo ..." The candle is lit green and blue, and the candle is dripping with tears under the candle, The tears dried up when the candle went out, and my sister was hoarse when she cried. The candle is lit green and green, accompany my sister to sing a few times, Singing bitterness trembling heart, eyes deep tears... Epilepsy Qin is such an insane person that he sat on the grave and sang the tune from the big poisonous weed "Nvgetang" he adapted back then.
