Chapter 15 Chapter fifteen

The catastrophe of the Lin family finally came into the calculation of Zhang Xiazi in Tumengou.Gu Shuping deeply regrets that for a period of time, she regarded Spark as a catastrophe. She never thought that the person with a foreign surname who attacked the Lin family was Yueyue. She caused the fire, caused the national army to be sick, and caused her husband to retire from the political arena in the village, and she ruined the Lin family's reputation.That night, Gu Shuping discussed with Lin Zhibang an opinion: divorce.Lin Zhibang clarified the truth, like a person who has been dreaming in the open air suddenly encounters a heavy rain, and suddenly wakes up and is full of energy.Sweeping away the previous fatigue, his face was instantly filled with the majesty of being a village head, and told Gu Shuping that after divorce, it's not that our Lin family can't find a daughter-in-law, and such a snobbish daughter-in-law will not be able to support him sooner or later. Before, our Lin family had to do two things before we could vent our anger. First, go to school and sue her, she is not worthy of being a teacher; Relatives and neighbors came here to let everyone know that we are a reasonable family and let everyone know what happened to the Weng family.Lin Zhibang's opinion was partially opposed by Xiaoqing. She supported her brother and Yueyue to divorce, because if she did not leave, she would not be able to be the son-in-law of the Lin family; she did not agree to sue Yueyue. Mother, but she doesn't agree to find old relatives and neighbors, too much publicity is not good for elder brother, and even worse for buying a son.Xiaoqing told her parents that she had decided to marry Maizi and she should pay attention to the impact on Maizi.

Gu Shuping had a good night's sleep. She hadn't slept soundly for a long time. The hidden root of the Lin family's life had been torturing her secretly for several months. Now the truth finally came to light. Gu Shuping's snoring sounded like a drunk man.At four o'clock in the morning, Lin Zhibang, who hadn't slept all night, suddenly changed his mind. He stretched out his hand to touch the snoring woman, and said that if he and his wife agreed, they would stay together. No outsiders would know about this, and separation would have an impact.Gu Shuping turned over and went up to the ceiling, saying the reason is that, but you know that Yueyue is the disaster of our family, if you don't divorce the Lin family, you will never think well.Lin Zhibang said, what a disaster, I don't want to listen to it, so it's settled, as long as the two of them agree, they won't leave.Gu Shuping didn't know why the man changed his mind, and felt very solid all night, as if he found out that the vegetables were planted in someone else's field after planting, and felt very wronged.But men always say what they say, and she can't change anything at all.

Early the next morning, Gu Shuping called Guojun and Yueyue.There was no trace of blood on Yueyue's pale face, and her eyelids were swollen into red bubbles, while Guojun was fine, with an imperceptible flush of blood in his expression, Lin Zhibang asked them to sit down.Lin Zhibang's drooping eyebands were taut and aggressive.Lin Zhibang said that in the hands of a man, no matter whether he has power or money, a woman must be dazzled when she sees it. This is not surprising. Weng Yueyue is also a mortal, but you change your mind after a few days after I step down, which makes me chill. A snob, Pan Xiuying is this kind of woman.Yueyue lowered her head, her messy uncombed hair hung on her temples, Yueyue looked very dull, without any reaction.Lin Zhibang said, of course, the mistake is already wrong, let's admit it face to face, let's admit it to the national army, and live our lives.Guojun seemed to be stung by something, and quickly stood up, no, Dad, no, Yueyue is not Pan Xiuying, she is not a romantic woman like Pan Xiuying, she just changed her mind when she followed someone.Lin Zhibang squeezed out a half-smile voice from his nostrils, next month I will be engaged to Xiaoqing and Maizi, and Maizi will marry Xiaoqing!The pain that crawled into the bones like silk threads was pulled by the roots by the father-in-law, and his whole body throbbed immediately.The throbbing kept Yueyue alert, and the throbbing made her experience a sacred thing flowing in her body.Yueyue said yes, Dad, Guojun is right, I have a change of heart, a change of heart, I want a divorce.

Lin Zhibang didn't answer the call, and Yueyue's attitude made Lin Zhibang, who had experienced many scenes, unable to answer the call.It wasn't Yueyue's attitude that made his plan fail, nor was it that his generosity didn't get Yueyue's response and suddenly became angry. Lin Zhibang saw another thing behind Yueyue's attitude, which was the catastrophe that Gu Shuping said ——The Lin Zhi gang has never seen a woman facing a desperate situation, not only has no intention of repentance, but also boldly and unreasonably tearing herself up—this is very common, and it is not something that women in Xiema Villa can do. Let Lin Zhi Gang couldn't help shivering: disaster star, this woman is disaster star.Lin Zhibang paused for a while, when he really confirmed something in his heart, he said decisively, no one should go to work today.

The Lin Zhi gang did not assign the task of finding Mrs. Weng to others, but went out in person.He woke up Xiaoqing, who was soundly asleep, and asked again if the matter of marrying Maizi was serious. Xiaoqing rubbed her sleepy eyes and said of course it was serious.Lin Zhibang didn't even eat, so he went to Wen Shengli's house to borrow a carriage and drove on the road.Lin Zhibang hadn't driven a carriage for many years, and he seemed very clumsy when he shouted commands for mules and horses.Lin Zhibang, who had retired, appeared driving a carriage on Tun Street, Xiahekou, Shanghekou, and immediately attracted the attention of the villagers. People don't know what drove the old village head who had been hanging around for several months to return to his old job.When the old lady Lai Weng got on the carriage in less than an hour, all kinds of suspicions were passed on from word to mouth, forming a generally consistent statement-Yueyue had a conflict with the national army.

Yueyue's mother saw what happened when her in-laws drove to the door, but she didn't ask anything.After changing her clothes and combing her hair, she got into the carriage tremblingly. There was no panic on Yueyue's mother's face, and there was a kind of solemnity hidden in her calm back, just like the posture she often has in the days of suffering for many years.Walking into the Lin family compound, the old man straightened his back with a solemn expression on his face.In order to express her outrage at what she had encountered, Gu Shuping did not greet her out of the courtyard, she just opened the door and stood on the threshold of the main room, saying that the old sister-in-law had come.Yueyue's mother nodded, and then went straight to the east room.The clean room of the Lin family was filled with a tense atmosphere, as if someone suddenly lifted the lid and smashed the bottom of the pot.As soon as Yueyue's mother sat down on the edge of the in-law's Kang, Gu Shuping burst into tears.Gu Shuping held Yueyue's mother's hand and said, what can I do, old sister-in-law?

Gu Shuping didn't want to cry in this scene, she originally planned to tell Yan Yuese how Yueyue was sorry for the Lin family, and then let the old man speak for himself.But after Lin Zhi's gang left early in the morning, the national army beat Yueyue.Yueyue insisted in front of her father-in-law that she had changed her mind, which made the national army suddenly furious. When her father left the yard, the national army dragged Yueyue to the Westinghouse, where she slapped her face hard.Yueyue was severely beaten, but she didn't cry out. After a while of numbness, she felt a hot thing flow out of her nasal cavity, which was blood.Yueyue pulled the towel off the thread and covered her nose, then lay down on the kang, and the Guojun kicked Yueyue's waist when she was lying on it.All the progress was silent, without any words, but Gu Shuping felt that the two popping sounds were the collision of flesh and flesh in the main room, and she exclaimed, "What is the national army?" Gu Shuping hates Yueyue, but She was born afraid of fighting, she went to push the door of the west room, and the door was stuck, and the fear immediately occupied her brain, she called Xiaoqing, Xiaoqing, come quickly——Xiaoqing and Huo Huo ran out quickly after hearing the sound, and met with Gu Shu Ping pushed open the door violently, followed by the sound of cracking wood, only to see Yueyue covering her face with blood stains on the towel, while Guo Jun leaned on the cabinet and ruthlessly stroked her hair, black and purple. His lips were stuck between the teeth and trembled uncontrollably.Xiaoqing said brother, why are you beating someone?Guojun relaxed his lips, turned to Xiaoqing, and said angrily, don't meddle with me, I don't want you to marry Cheng Maizi, and I don't want to see a man like a black monkey enter my Lin's house.Xiaoqing doesn't give in, you don't care about me, I don't care about you...

The chaotic entanglement between the children destroyed Gu Shuping's mood of waking up early in the morning to get rid of the disaster star. She didn't know how the life of the Lin family could be so troubled. Shangzui, you still let me live, so you whimpered and cried.Xiaoqing slammed the door and left the house to wash her face, comb her hair, and Huo Huan went to work and school, and Gu Shuping went back to the kitchen to wipe her eyes and tears, but the arrival of Yueyue's mother made her feel the grievance that had just been pressed into her chest.Yueyue's mother looked at Gu Shuping calmly, her old eyes revealing reason and sobriety.She said that the big girl's sky will not fall, so it's no big deal.Yueyue's mother spoke as if she was a pure outsider and had nothing to do with the case.At this time, Lin Zhibang was annoyed, and shouted at Gu Shuping like a dog, shut up, there's no need to cry.Gu Shuping's voice weakened, and he heard Lin Zhibang yelling at Westinghouse, come here!Westinghouse was silent.Shout again, come over here!Rough voices echoed in the room, the door squeaked, and a national army man walked into the room with his head drooping like a captured fugitive. He did not speak to his mother-in-law when he entered the room, and his bloodshot eyes just stared at her. underfoot.It took a long time for Yueyue to enter the east room. She washed the blood off her face and entered the door to stand at the corner of the cabinet facing the national army.She didn't go to see anyone, including her own mother, and she knew that this was a bloody denunciation.The mother will join the denouncing crowd with confidence and dignity.Lin Zhibang spoke first: Sister-in-law, at your age, you really shouldn't bother, but this is not a trivial matter, I have to let you know.Lin Zhibang's voice was very heavy, and he seemed a little sad. He said that Yueyue admitted that she had married Maizi and wanted to divorce the national army... Did Yueyue say it herself?Yueyue held her cheeks in both hands and said yes.The room was suddenly silent, and the autumn morning light quietly shone on the Kang surface through the glass, reflecting a bouncing light and shadow on Yueyue's mother's shriveled face.This quiet time was originally given by Lin Zhibang to Yueyue's mother. A reasonable old man would not know how to react at this moment, but Yueyue's mother did not speak for a long time.After a long time, about two minutes, Lin Zhibang finally couldn't bear the embarrassment, and said that since Yueyue got married, I think she is heavier than my own children. Until today, I didn't expect it.There has been a saying since ancient times, to persuade gambling but not whoring, Yueyue changed her mind, and if she can't be persuaded, she can only talk and break up, what do you think, sister-in-law?I know it's not easy to go from house to house, but I can't persuade you.

Mother Yueyue moved, avoiding the sunlight on her face, and said—her voice was deep but never depressed.Our Weng family is sorry for the Lin family. I raised such a spoiled girl... I am sorry for my in-laws and the national army. I will make amends to you.Lin Zhibang and Gu Shuping followed Yueyue's mother and didn't respond when they should.Yueyue's mother went on to say, the thing was committed by my daughter, and how to deal with it is up to the in-laws. If you want Yueyue to leave, I will take her away now. I don't care if you want Yueyue to stay, but there is one case , Don't hit my daughter.

Yueyue's mother's words surprised everyone in the Lin family, which undoubtedly meant a sense of support, and as a mother with strict family rules for many years, if she didn't slap her daughter twice in front of her husband's family, she would at least have to scold her A meal, so as to save the face of the in-laws who were splashed with dirty water.But Yueyue's mother didn't do that.She said he was uncle—this was what Yueyue called her in-laws before she got married. If she wants to get a divorce, I will take Yueyue away today. Don't stay here to make you angry.Yueyue's mother said that seeing that Lin Zhibang had no intention of keeping him, she appointed Kang Yan, saying that Yueyue hadn't tidied up her clothes yet!Yueyue raised her face gratefully to look at her mother, and then went to Westinghouse to pack her clothes.

Mrs. Weng's clear and concise attitude made the Lin family not only feel the joy of avoiding disasters and disasters, but also have a kind of unfinished regret that things were done too quickly and happily.When Yueyue Jia Baoer left the Lin family compound, the national army felt an unexpected sense of emptiness and sadness. He didn't go out to see him off, and Yueyue's mother didn't let Lin Zhi help drive them off. The mother and daughter walked slowly away from Tun Street. It was as natural as going on a date, and Mrs. Weng even had a peaceful smile on her face.However, when she passed the hill and was about to reach the small river southeast of Xiahekou, Yueyue stopped in her tracks. Yueyue said, "Mom, I won't go home, I'm going to school."The mother said, I told you that I would not let you come back, but you, where are you going?Yueyue said that I tried to live in school, and I would definitely not go home.The mother hesitated, her eyes became dim. After a long time, the mother seemed to think of something, and her eyes changed from dark to bright. The mother said that you can go, the class is important, you can go. Watching Yueyue ride back to the hill, my mother went straight to a sloping field in the river loop. When she found a familiar grave on the sloping field, she lay on her stomach, covered her mouth, and howled.Ever since Gu Shuping and Huo Hua kidnapped Yueyue in Dongyakou thatched cottage, Maizi fell into a feeling of guilt and melancholy.He really didn't know that Yueyue had such deep feelings for him. He had never experienced such a feeling of being loved. The important thing was that he made Yueyue expose her infidelity to the Lin family in front of her mother-in-law. The important thing was that, Yueyue's exposure is likely to affect Xiaoqing's feelings for her.The next day at work, Maizi went straight to the health center. As soon as Maizi entered the health center, Xiaoqing put down the steamer and ran over to hug and kiss Maizi.Xiaoqing's actions made Maizi feel a little more at ease - Xiaoqing has not changed his attitude towards him, but this does not prove that nothing happened when Yueyue went back last night.Maizi said, Xiaoqing, I want to tell you something, and you must know about it.Maizi didn't know how to tell Xiaoqing about the past between him and Yueyue. It seemed to be a difficult thing to explain, but he wanted to say it so that Xiaoqing could know. It's happened before... Xiaoqing blocked Maizi's mouth with her mouth, preventing him from speaking.After a while, Xiaoqing left Maizi, Xiaoqing said you don't need to say anything, I know my sister-in-law is in love with you, it doesn't matter to me, I already knew she was in love with you.Buyer's heart suddenly moved, you already knew?Xiaoqing said of course, Maizi looked at this strange woman and wanted to ask further questions, but felt that it was unnecessary, so he tried to tell what he wanted to tell, he said, she is like my sister, she has always been like my sister, yesterday After a while, when she went to my place, she actually knew about our affairs. She was going... Your mother just... Maizi felt that there was a force in her heart against him saying that, but before he finished speaking, Xiaoqing quickly stopped him, and Cheng Maizi, I don't want to know who my future husband is getting along with, I hope you can understand me.Maizi stopped talking and went straight to the point, Xiaoqing, how did your family not take Yueyue?Xiaoqing didn't want Maizi to know that Yueyue loved him so hard, Xiaoqing deliberately said carelessly, don't treat our Lin family so stingy, my father and brother don't know anything at all.Let's talk about the two of us first, my dad said he will get engaged to us within half a month. Maizi was finally relieved, but when he heard that he and Xiaoqing were going to be engaged, a new relationship formed and he couldn't help feeling a little anxious.Life is incredible, he is sorry for Yueyue and the national army, but they are going to become his uncles and sisters-in-law, he really doesn't know how to face it in the future - face it with peace of mind. The inside story of the matter finally got what Xiaoqing wanted, and no one knew about it. It was like digging a deep hole in the grass and covering it with straw, so it looked intact.In late autumn, Xiema Mountain Villa is filled with the aroma of ripe rice grains all over the mountains and plains. The leaves of corn, rice, soybeans, three pods and mustaches are getting closer to withering yellow day by day, as if the aroma is a kind of flammable gas, which is formed by the caressing of autumn wind. The fire scorched the crops.Xiema Mountain Villa in late autumn has imperceptible thoughts. The aunt’s stone canopy is exposed in the thin crop leaves day by day, like a bony old man bending his back to show the year and the moon.This is already a season waiting for the harvest. The tranquility on the surface of the village street actually hides the hustle and bustle in the courtyard. However, it is this season—late autumn, when Gu Ben organized his troops on the sandy ground. deep plowing and fertilization. The ancient deep plowing is the same as the spring plowing of the villa, but the depth of the plowing is quite different. The spring plowing only uses a plow stick to open less than one foot along the middle of the ridge, but the ancient deep plowing is to make all the ground deep. Dig two feet, and then prepare ridges and press alkali mud on the two-foot-deep soil.It has been many years since we pulled alkali mud from the seaside of Xiema Town to compact the land. The convenience and convenience of using chemical fertilizers makes the labor force go out and the family never pays attention to improving the soil.Gu Ben hired five cars and more than a dozen men and women from Qianchuan and Houchuan.In ancient times, the wages of hired workers were ten catties of apples a day, and extra money was added for carriages and horses.The temptation of getting ten catties of apples that day made many women with children temporarily give up their preparations for the autumn harvest and join the ranks of hired workers.In ancient times, there was no limit to the number of people, the more the better, no one knew what kind of plants he wanted to plant in the ground.Five days later, when a piece of sandy land was turned over and covered with alkali mud, Gu Benn brought back a carload of film and a bag of grass seeds from the town, so people finally knew that the purpose of Gu Benn's lease of the sandy land was to plant seeds before freezing. When a bunch of medicinal materials came out, people rubbed the grass seeds with their hands and looked carefully when they planted them, but they couldn't figure out what medicinal materials it was. Later, an old man in Qianchuan curiously went to the field to ask, and finally found out that it was Ganoderma lucidum. Changing sweet potatoes to grow Ganoderma lucidum was the inspiration that Gu Ben got from the town's diversification office. On the day when the sand was covered with mulch, Tang Yigui, the old village head of the villa and a hard-core poor farmer who had already hunched his waist, came to the sandy field for a walk. Hearing, and then looking at Gu Ben, who was commanding the hired workers by the side of the dam like a monster, there was a long-standing, hard-to-grasp distress in his eyes. He thought of something when he was close to the sandy land and the hired workers who were working in full swing, and no one could say anything. It is clear that he moves in front of people with his hunched waist and limbs, like a wooden plow in the afternoon.Seeing Tang Yigui walking clumsily on the ground, some fast-talking women screamed that the old man is hungry for apples too, do you still have teeth?Tang Yigui was a little angry when he heard the words that made fun of him, but his old face could no longer accurately express his feelings. He only moved his sunken lips a few times, as if muttering something, and then dragged his old legs all the way to the village. Plow away. In the village office, Tang Yigui saw Maizi, his hands were waving in the air, and he muttered, did you see it?What did Maizi see?Tang Yigui said that you little bastard will have a good time for you, just wait.Maizi couldn't understand Tang Yigui's words, thinking it was a prophecy to himself, he smiled and asked him to sit down.But Tang Yigui didn't sit down, he spun a few times on the ground like a snail and walked out.No one could believe that Tang Yigui's inexplicable appearance this time was his farewell to his folks. That night, on the eighteenth day of the eighth lunar month, Tang Yigui died in the ridge of his corn field.My wife made dinner and didn't come back when I waited, so I went to the field to look for it under the stars - after Tang Yigui got old, he spent all his time in the field, whether he was alive or not.Without any effort, she found a mass of black objects in the ditch near the ground. When she squatted down to touch, Tang Yigui's head and arms were cold and hard, and he held a handful of dirt in one hand. Tang Yigui's funeral was very simple. He didn't hire blowers, and he didn't tie horses and horses. The two daughters he married couldn't empty the house because the man was not at home. They came back every morning and howled twice before returning to their homes in other villages.Only Pan Xiuying persisted for three days. While receiving folks who came to mourn, she watched over the rotation of the tapes—Tang Yigui didn't have a son to pay for a blower, and Pan Xiuying brought the tape recorder from home.The small trumpets played not mournful music but joyful tunes celebrating the harvest. The death of people over sixty years old in Xiema Villa was regarded as joy and mourning. It seems that this is a public grain purchase point, and it seems that Tang Yigui is the guard who controls the gate and specializes in bookkeeping.Pan Xiuying twisted the yangko in her heart in the melodious tune, and her waist was fluttering like an eighteen twenty-three girl.On the morning of the funeral, Maizi and Lin Zhibang came to Tang’s house and sent a pair of wreaths in the name of the village department. After the village department of Xiema Villa mourned Tang Yigui for sending Tang Yigui away in the name of his successor, Lin Zhibang brought Maizi to Tang Yigui's field together. Seeing the ripe corn, Maizi tried to capture the intention of the old village chief, saying that he was looking for Two people who owed Murakami volunteers collected it for him, but Lin Zhibang didn't say anything. He didn't seem to care who took it, or thought the buyer was right. Lin Zhibang was looking for a lawn to sit and smoke with Tang Yigui before retiring.Lin Zhibang found it, sat down in his original position, took out the cigarette, sighed wistfully, and said, I'm not far away from him.He looked at the blue sky at the end of the grass dam, looked at the wild land inside the grass dam, and imagined what Tang Yigui had done during the countdown.He doesn't seem to be doing anything but using the crops as a companion.Lin Zhibang sat there thoughtfully but absolutely thought nothing of it, his eyes facing the ground.The nearest piece of land has been trampled flat. At this moment, when Lin Zhibang moved his eyes to the flat land, he found a string of characters on the land. The strokes of the characters were too heavy, and they cut through the soil like mole crickets. A long hole drilled in the ground.Lin Zhibang stood up quickly and walked over to have a look. Maizi didn't know what Lin Zhibang had found, so he followed suit.At this time, they saw the four characters that were extremely irregular but very clear: The land is not rented out.At this time, Maizi remembered the two words Tang Yigui said in the village a few days ago, and seemed to understand the shock of the ancient rented land to his old soul.In ancient times, during the autumn season when the ground was planted, another incident happened in Xiema Mountain Village. Pan Xiuying's son-in-law who went to Russia to work as a laborer died.Pan Xiuying's daughter, Jin Ye, heard the news on the sand.It was near noon that day, and the plastic film was being laid on the ridge, when a sudden sound of motorcycles suddenly stopped at the edge of the ground, disturbing the people who were working.Everyone looked up, and saw a family member in light green clothes and a big cap jumping off the motorcycle and walking towards the field, shouting who is Chen Xuefu's family?Jin Ye stood up straight suddenly, it was me.Big Cap said pack up and follow me.Jin Ye felt that the pores on her body tightened for a moment. The man wrote a letter two months ago saying that he would come back after autumn, didn't he? I can’t afford to earn too much, and some people say that I don’t think it’s a good thing.Jin Ye approached the big cap and asked in a low voice what's the matter?The big cap said, don't ask, just follow me.Jin Ye didn't go home, but asked another woman to send a message to the child telling him to come back to his grandma's house for dinner at noon, and then set off on the road by motorcycle. Only when she came to the town did she know that her husband, who had been working in Russia for two years, was robbed on the return train. When the train was approaching a small station in the middle of the night, the hijacker took advantage of Chen Xuefu's nap and threw him out of the window. , After grabbing the bag and getting out of the car, Chen Xuefu fell to his death immediately, with nothing in his pocket except his ID card. When Jin Ye and the officials from the judicial department of the town rushed to the mortuary of a county hospital in Jiamusi City, Heilongjiang to claim her husband, Jin Ye fainted immediately... After returning to Xiema Villa in one day and two nights, Jin Ye had become thin into a mole cricket and had just finished working at Tang Yigui's house. Pan Xiuying, who was happy and mourning, had no time to rest, so she went to work for her son-in-law again.Because it was her relatives who died, she could no longer play the role of "supporting the funeral", but was supported by others when crying.Chen Xuefu's death terrified all the migrant women. When they went to Jinye's house to mourn, they all said the same thing, man, you are so cruel to throw away your wife and children.While condemning the golden leaf man, they prayed for their own man, man, you must never abandon your wife and children. The tragic death of Chen Xuefu made the villagers of Xiema Villa more inclined to Maizi to run the village industry. After five or six women in Houchuan exchanged their strength for one hundred and eighty catties of apples, they jointly went to the village head to find Maizi and wanted to buy them. Zizi built more brick factories, broke through more roads, and said that when men come back at the end of the year, they will not be allowed to leave.They talked and talked, crying.Maizi looked at these women and advised them to think about it. Dangerous things can't happen all the time. Maizi said he would work hard.The National Day is coming soon, and this festival is like grass growing out of the green grass in the days of the residents of Xiema Villa, and everything is the same.For this day, the only one who has been secretly thinking and looking forward to is Pan Xiuying. She has practiced Yangko for more than three months. She knows that Lin Zhibang will not go on stage with her and go crazy, so she finds Gu Yongzheng, a village primary school teacher who lives in Houchuan.Gu Yongzheng was the backbone of literature and art in the era of Xiao Jinzhuang, his skills were as soft as a woman's, and he couldn't stop shaking his body when he listened to music.Pan Xiuying walked in the courtyard with Gu Yongzheng on Sunday or evening time, Gu Yongzheng also wrote a Yangko ditty with libretto, what gongs and drums hit the stage, singing reform and opening up... who knows how many days to practice When he came down, something happened to his son-in-law.The sudden death of her son-in-law made the good things she had been thinking about in her dreams turn from ubiquitous to out of reach overnight. Thinking that I used to be as energetic as an eighteen-year-old boy, I felt disgusted with myself, and thought that it would be better to be realistic when I was alive, and it was useless to be poor.But after the person was buried, the tears dried up, and he dragged his sad and tired body to lie down for a few days, and when he woke up again, the sound of the thud-dang-dang-dang-dang music rang in his ears again, and his heart grew hairy like grass, looking forward to it again. Into emotions that are more realistic than anything.As the National Day approached, Pan Xiuying became more and more nervous every day. She hoped that the village leader Lin Zhibang or Maizi would pick her up to invite her, because they knew the misfortune she had encountered.Only when they come out to invite her, can she have a reason to get out of sadness, so that she won't be called immoral.Hope made Pan Xiuying nervous, and every dog ​​barking outside the window made her heart beat with panic, and made her break out in a cold sweat after the heartbeat.It was not because she was afraid that three months of hard work would go to waste—it was her only chance to show herself on the stage as she was twenty years ago, but because she was afraid of giving up her work in the health center, but she still felt fulfilled.On September 30th, Lin Zhibang and Cheng Maizi did not show up. Pan Xiuying couldn't keep her nerves in the courtyard anymore. She dressed up early in the morning and walked out of Tun Street to the village.When Pan Xiuying came to the village, she first went to the health center to see Xiaoqing, and lied that she was very angry and bought a few packs of Niuhuang Jiedu tablets from Xiaoqing, and then slipped into the village pretending to be fine while playing with the medicine packs.The village committee is present in the village department, and everyone is very polite when they see her. She becomes a guest after leaving the village committee.Liu Hai, who usually dislikes Pan Xiuying the most because she can't be blind about anything, said that life and death are determined, so you have to think about it.Another village committee member named Wang Quan said that bad luck is the beginning of good luck, and Jinye can't be unlucky all the time.No one mentioned the performance, and Pan Xiuying answered, while anxiously thinking of ways.Suddenly, she turned her head to look at Maizi, oh, the village chief, look at my head, I almost forgot, there will be a National Day performance in the town tomorrow, when Secretary Lin reported the program for me, I have been confused these days .Pan Xiuying pretended to remember suddenly without showing any trace of pretense.This move worked really well, Maizi was reminded, Maizi said, do you think I have neglected my duty, the program was published in the morning newspaper, and the village head is still leading the team in the town.After Maizi finished speaking, he asked the accountant to use the key to turn on the phone. Maizi called the town and asked when the National Day Cultural Performance was, and the other party said that it would be at the town hall at 8 o'clock tomorrow morning.Maizi put down the phone and said, Aunt Pan, you must help me, this is an aspect of spiritual civilization construction, and points will be deducted if you don't participate.Pan Xiuying was silent for a while, saying that I am not in the mood, but I really can't tear things apart, why did I agree at the beginning. The heart that was hanging in the air finally came to fruition. When she walked home, Pan Xiuying was very satisfied with her quick wit. However, walking in the field, she saw the corn stalks that had already withered leaves, and thought that she was like this corn stalk. Everyone is old and yellow, so why can’t the good things in my youth not be less lively, and my satisfaction with myself is like fallen leaves under the autumn wind, drifting away one by one. Seeing the vast autumn fields, Pan Xiuying felt a little melancholy and joyful for the first time in her life. have no choice. Is it because he promised that the town would help Maizi to the horse for a ride, or because he promised to perform with Pan Xiuying on the same stage with her on the National Day? Take a seat in a prominent position in the front row of the auditorium.Since Yueyue's incident happened, and through Yueyue's incident, he learned that Maizi will soon be his son-in-law. He seemed to have swept away his former indifference and calmness, and there was some spirit in his eyes, and Maizi became his son-in-law It made him suddenly realize that his career in the village was far from over, and made him realize that the sky always has eyes, and outsiders who deserve it can't snatch it even if they break their heads. The huge auditorium was full of people, and the faded purple curtain brought the farmers a solemnity and solemnity that they seldom experienced in the field. On the curtain, there was a row of large slogans in black and red: Xiema town celebrates the National Day large-scale performance.The dark-faced farmer, who rarely had the opportunity to perform for many years, threw the little peach red on his face, exaggerating his enthusiasm like a clown in a Beijing opera, and most of the women changed their attire, competing for beauty in bright red and green.A fat woman in her forties was wearing a dress with an elastic waist and a pair of pink silk trousers with fat legs under the dress.The men mostly kept their colors, but there was no mud or wrinkle on their clothes.In the performance team formed by this group of peasants, although Pan Xiuying is older, she wears a silver-gray lapel collar suit, a gray short skirt, and light rouge, which gives people the elegance of a city woman and attracts many eyes.After the mayor entered the table, he shook hands with Lin Zhibang and Maizi alone.Lin Zhibang said, you old goblin, you stand out everywhere you go.Pan Xiuying said, I will show you today.After a burst of gongs and drums, the audience was silent. At this time, the host shouted through the loudspeaker that everyone stand up and played the national anthem. The national anthem echoed around the auditorium through the walls. Pan Xiuying's eyes were moist. This is an exaggerated and unreal moment. Everyone is cut off from the land, the life, and the short stories of the parents, and the real and labor things become so far away.On stage and off stage, there is a devotion and selfless happiness.When the announcer announced the sequence of performances in a crisp voice, Pan Xiuying's heart jumped like a rabbit.Waiting for the performance is uneasy, but there is an exciting emotion in this uneasiness, just like the country children dream of waiting before the New Year. On the other hand, she was afraid that it would be her turn to let go of herself early, because she didn't know what the life in her heart would be like after that short moment passed. The announcer finally announced the four words of Xiema Villa. Once the four words were uttered from the loudspeaker, they were like four pillars of fire without light, touching Pan Xiuying's beating heart, which stopped beating. The blood in her eyes splashed from her chest to her head, and she completely changed into a young girl again. Pan Xiuying walked onto the stage with Gu Yongzheng with a charming face. The melodious music woke up the morning dew, and the lovesickness across the wall tormented a pair of teenagers. Looking at each other across the wall, the girl was shy, and the boy was shy. The monotonous beats of the drums drove out the jubilant gongs and drums, and men and women finally used the excuse of singing about the reform and opening up to chase and play on Tun Street, holding hands and shoulder to shoulder, and expressing love with each other.Pan Xiuying went back to 30 years ago, her whole body was light and light, and the fear of the end of the performance had already been long-awaited, and she was squeezed away by the next action and the next lyrics. She ran forward all the way, forgetting that the end was the end.When Pan Xiuying made her last appearance with an eighteen-year-old happy face, tears filled the corners of the fifty-five-year-old woman's eyes.It only takes ten minutes from the opening to the closing. Ten minutes is very short compared to a person's life. However, in these ten minutes, Pan Xiuying fully experienced her future and past. She walked through the future and the past after ten minutes.When the purple curtain covered Pan Xiuying and Gu Yongzheng, the eye sockets of Lin Zhibang in the auditorium were wet. Lin Zhibang, who has never been emotional, didn't know why, but when he saw Pan Xiuying acting like a child that didn't match her age, he covered it His eye sockets were moist with the purple curtain.Play it for a while, old goblin.he said in his heart.
