Chapter 4 Chapter 1 Going Home for the New Year-1

Time: March 2004 Location: Dongsishitiao, Beijing Narrator: Muzhen, female, 39 years old When I came to Beijing by train after Chinese New Year, there was no water in the car, and there was (always) no water.Everyone brought Coke, and I also brought Coke. I bought it next to the Dishui Station, and asked my brother to buy it. It may cost five yuan a bottle, and I didn't finish it.There were seven people who came together, carpenters, painters, and sewing workers.Wang Zhe is a woman. Her younger brother runs a garment factory in Beijing and makes down jackets. They are from Macheng. They sit together on the train. The down jackets she is wearing may be from this factory. The quality is not good, and the down is scattered everywhere. , sister-in-law and sister-in-law, both of them have the same clothes, and the down has come out from the holes of the needles, and it is white everywhere, all over the body.That woman took her niece to work in the factory. There must be work there. I don’t know how much she earns. She is not Wang Ya’s.

When we are hungry on the train, we eat salted fish. The girl and I both eat fish, which we brought with us.She eats Wuchang fish, and I eat fat head fish.She took a big piece and gnawed, and drank water when she was thirsty, and brought apples, eggs, sausages, sugar, biscuits, egg yolk pie, and others brought them.I just took apples and eggs and fish.Playing poker in the car, playing seven, two decks of poker, 108 cards, and later lending one deck to others, and fighting the landlord with the remaining one deck. When I went back, there was no heating in the car, and it was freezing to death, freezing to death.I thought, when I got to the next stop, if it was closer, I would go back to Beijing right away.Later, I put on two pairs of socks and two overcoats, but it was not very good, as if my feet were on ice.Temporarily added car, hard sleeper car is changed to hard seat car, 84 yuan per ticket, plus 5 yuan booking fee.

I didn't go to the toilet in the car on the way back. When I came here, I squeezed a toilet, queued up, and there was no place to step down.The most people dripped water. Later, people who came up from Huanggang and Macheng stood all the way. After that, those who got on the bus stood all the way. When they arrived in Bazhou, they were all down and had a seat. We were late for more than two hours. We were supposed to arrive in Beijing at 7:30. Our car was late, so we waited for someone else's car to pass before letting us in. We sat for almost 18 hours. Xiao Wang (Mu Zhen's husband) lay in bed for several days during the Chinese New Year, and he couldn't get up in the afternoon on the 28th. He didn't work or talk.I just want money, he doesn't say it, and I don't know, it's just his tricks (embarrassment).Later, the eldest sister said that I only knew.He told my elder sister, who called my mother and my mother told me again, and I didn't know.After giving the money, he was fine.

On the night of thirty, I gave the children lucky money, one hundred for each person, and fifty for him. I also said, I have been married for more than ten years, and you have not given me a penny for the new year. We call it money.I said I would give you 50 at once, but he said I would keep the money and use it to recharge the mobile phone card. There was a quarrel at thirty in the afternoon, he lifted the chair up, I didn't panic at all, he didn't dare to hit me, and threw the chair over.He said he was going out, running away, and not at home, and I thought, it would be the same with you or without you.He was looking for clothes, and I hurried in, holding the money in my hand and talking.I was afraid that if he took the money away, I would have no money to spend.I'm not afraid when I get money, you can go where you fall in love.

When he was looking for clothes, the sister-in-law in the village dragged him and told him not to leave. I told him not to. He couldn't leave, and at most he was in Wang Zha.Later, the sister-in-law stopped talking.He has been looking for his clothes in eight doors (everywhere) in the house.I was sweeping the floor there and told my wife that he couldn't run away, so where could he go.He has no money, where is he going?If only I could still run. When it fell (later) he didn't leave the room at all, and lay down again.Qitong (the son's nickname) finished his lunch without calling him, and Qitong made the soil at the door by himself.When Xiao Wang and I were arguing, Qi Tong happened to be there, and he said, let me learn the craft, I will learn a dick!His second mother said: You don't care about it, it has nothing to do with you.

My son is very good. I went up the mountain to collect a lot of firewood and stacked it on the second floor. Xiao Wang didn’t care, it was all made of seven tubes, and the couplets were posted. It was me and my son. I don’t know where my daughter went. She spoiled her Just one year younger than Qitong.I put up couplets while cooking, seven tubes for fire, I bought couplets, six yuan a piece for the gate, big and long ones, bought at the third store, a total of fourteen yuan, all with door buckets.Last year, my brother and daughter-in-law posted a short one. She was not reconciled, but this year she had to go with me, and she also wanted to buy the same long one.

Then the chair fell over, and he nailed it again.When I finally came out, I gave him all the money. I paid the money for my daughter's schooling, and I gave him the rest of the money.If I don't give it to me, I'm afraid he will hit his daughter. If the seven tubes come out, he won't be able to hit her, so don't be afraid. In 2002 or 2001, he broke his daughter's feet and lay in bed for two days.The daughter has a stubborn temper.He vented his anger on his daughter when he had no money to spend, saying that her daughter always wanted money to spend. My brother said that last year he sold ducks for more than 1,000 yuan, and he didn't know where the money went.It must be for his friend, last time he wanted to borrow money from my brother, I asked him not to lend it to him, he always wanted him to borrow it, and asked me to pay it back.My uncle (father) liked his before, but now, when my uncle saw him, he wanted to eat it in one bite and ignored him.

Then on the first day of the new year, I made bread noodles at home and paid New Year’s greetings. I went to the temple first. Wang Zha had two temples besides the Earth Temple. Kowtow in front of two Bodhisattvas, adults and children, and Master Lin will give each child one of the apples offered to the Bodhisattvas.We just drink some tea, rice wine in previous years, and tea this year.Come back again, it's in your own room, like playing with a dragon lantern, a group of people, and only one person is left at home. I went to that temple again, but I didn’t remember what it was called. I said no, my mother believed in Buddhism and ran to the temple last year. If I didn’t come back there during the Chinese New Year, it’s because I’m not at home. She went back for the New Year, but she didn't.She didn't come back until after the Chinese New Year.On the first day of last year, I went there to pay New Year's greetings, a large group of people.

This year I can't say I can't go, Xiao Wang always said that he would go, so I said, do you want to take a look at Dongmei (his girlfriend)? I said I went last year because your mother was there, what are you doing this year?You just want to take a look at Dongmei!Then go, go! He said: Forget it, I won’t go, you guys go! I said let's go, let's go together, lest you keep thinking about it. I went and saw Dongmei.Didn't a large group of people go there last year? They all went to her house.Xiao Wang and Dongmei had a tacit understanding. As soon as Dongmei took the firecracker and propped it out, Xiao Wang knew to take it and let it go.

His sister-in-law even glanced at me deliberately, so I pretended to be stupid and pretended I didn't see it.Later when I got home, I said, "You two are fine."He said I was talking nonsense.He didn't admit it, he said that if someone gave it to you, you wouldn't let it go. I said my brother was there too, why didn't he answer.He said I had no taste (meaning boring). So this year I said, it’s okay to go to the temple, but don’t go to Dongmei’s house.He said he didn't want to go either.When I came back, Dongmei was standing at the door, and when I got home, I said, I feel comfortable now.see that.I said every word with a smile.

On the twenty-ninth day, I went to the Malian Store to do New Year’s shopping. I bought biscuits, five catties, four yuan a catty, cloud cakes, also four yuan a catty, raisins, six yuan a catty, and white melon seeds, also six yuan. It cost 1 yuan a catty, but I bought two catties.I also bought melon seeds, a bag, and broad beans. I also bought hawthorn slices. Broad beans are cheap, two yuan a catty, and hawthorn slices are seven yuan a catty. I also bought a bag of apples, which cost thirteen yuan a bag.Two bags of milk powder, 15 to 1 bag, I forgot the brand, but they were packed individually. Rou Xiaowang has already bought at home, soy sauce, monosodium glutamate and Jianlibao, five yuan a bottle, and bought four bottles.Xia brand longxu crisp, bought Six boxes, all for food.The melon seeds are fried until they are all black, and the person who eats them has (all) black stalks around their mouths, and the stalks on their hands are also black.Broad beans are what I eat. I bought ham sausage, black wood flowers, dried shiitake mushrooms, and vermicelli for hot pot.I bought chicken legs, as well as chicken feet, white fungus, and red dates. Annan bought whatever he saw me buy. Annan and I had a one-year-old, also in 1965, and 39 years old.I'm still laughing there, what do I buy, what do you buy, you won't be afraid of your Xiangya hitting you when you go back.The ones I bought are quite expensive. I am usually not at home, so I buy some delicious food for my children.He said it's okay, I will eat whatever you want. The firecrackers, couplets, and door buckets were all bought on this day, as were the fireworks.Including food, the total is more than four hundred, which must be a little more than others. Others just buy some broad beans, melon seeds, and sugar. I brought seven catties of sugar here.The price of sugar in Beijing is about the same. There are soft candies in Beijing, but the ones at home are all hard.Children love to eat soft ones, so they pick out all the soft ones and eat them.Soft candies are cheap, but when visitors come later, all they eat are hard candies. Relatives all came, and on the first day of the junior high school, Niupike's son celebrated his tenth birthday.Those who came that day were all relatives from Xiao Wang's side. His brother-in-law just took a bag of candy, crisp candy.The niece and son-in-law took a bag of sugar and a piece of meat, raw, fat and thin, and bones.Sanmao is also a piece of meat and a bag of sugar.Come and put a pack of one thousand firecrackers.Xiao Wang put it, the brazier was burning in the house, and it was not cold.There is also a small table, and all the food is taken out and placed in a basin.There is no soup for guests.Some just scratch it, just stand for a while and then leave, make him a cup of tea, he drinks while walking, disposable cups, throw them wherever he goes.Some people don't drink any tea, just put down their things and leave, as if they just brought you something. In the second day of junior high school, we all went to my mother's house.Qitong Batong followed Xiao Wang's sister-in-law to the street (in the county) to pay New Year's greetings. The small noodle seats cost four yuan per person. They bargained, saying that they were all children, and then they were two yuan per person.I went there on Xiao Wang's motorcycle. I brought a piece of meat and bought cereal for the elderly in the county seat, fifteen yuan a bag.Later, I wanted to change it to Melatonin, but I was too lazy to go back, so I didn't change it. Here we are, the baby hasn't arrived yet.We came from the north side of the city, and my mother was from the south side of the city, and we had to go through the entire county.There are buses around the city, one yuan per person.My uncle became angry, worried that the two children would be lost.He said: That's how it is done.His face sank, and Xiao Wang hurried to look for it on his motorcycle, but when he couldn't find it, he came back again.I said: I can't fall (can't lose), I can't fall, no matter how old I am, I can still fall.My uncle said nothing, and sighed. I said let me have a look.As soon as they went out, the two of them came, waiting for the bus for a long time. At noon they drank and ate boiled mutton, then chicken hips, meatballs, and fish balls.Chatting, chatting here and there, brother Xi said that he likes Beijing steamed buns, and eats four of them in one meal, the big ones.He was working in Beijing. Last year, in just a few months, he also took the car that was freezing to death to go home.He said he sat under Macheng.It's the same with dripping water, it's all butchers, he originally only wanted four yuan for noodles, but one person wanted ten yuan, and the five of them quit. Later, they searched everywhere and stopped at the big market, and went there to wait. Later, Brother Xi saw his classmate, and he said that his classmate's car was still four yuan each, and that Brother Xi didn't need money, but Brother Xi still gave it to his classmates, saying that it was not unusual. Brother Fatty said that when he went to Beijing this time, he burned Mu Ling (Mu Zhen's younger sister), which means he spent Mu Ling's money.The construction site where he works is very remote, it is really hard to find, Mu Ling really found it, bought him shoes, socks, underwear, which is what we call long johns and long shirts, and took an old down jacket, he said why Beijing If it's cold (so cold), I said you thought it was the same as in the house (home). I said how did you get in that car, he originally said to leave on the 20th, but he didn't get a ticket.I said that I thought you would stay at the station for a few more days, and it was really hard to buy tickets. He also said that a few people were in a hurry, and the eight of them went back to Macheng together.Only five are dripping.What are you doing?Those who work as masons have no wages owed, and they are all paid in cash. The owner of the villa built for a private person is really rich, saying that the Beijingers are really rich, and that after the house is built, they will build a yard with flowers and grass. I also hired a nanny to watch the house, and I don't usually live there.I paid him wages, three months, except for food and shelter, and got 1,800 yuan at home.He thinks it's okay. I said why are you so late, he said he wanted to go back sooner, the house was not successful, he said that the Beijingers are really, the cement freezes in winter, and the walls made are loose, so the Beijingers still insist on doing it. I bought tickets for them only after they were finished, but when they were gone, I stayed at the station. In fact, he didn't come out to work on purpose. He came to find someone, and that person borrowed him 20,000 yuan, but he didn't pay it back, so he came to ask for it.Fortunately, there were five people who came out together. That person used to be an electrician, and the electrician only raised two daughters, both of whom were married, so he didn't have to go home.My wife went with my daughter to take care of the child. The eldest daughter has a job and is in Wuhan.Electricians don't care about the house.At that time, he said he was going out to do business and borrowed 20,000 yuan, but later he lost all of it, let alone going home. Brother Xipang came to Beijing to look for it, but he still couldn't find it, and he still didn't give him the money. I asked what to do with the money, and how to deal with the money, and he said: Let’s talk about it when it falls. The chubby brother said that he didn't play, he didn't go anywhere, and he went to work every day.They all lived in the same room and slept on the floor. It was so cold that they bought an electric blanket. My brother bought it. Mu Ling originally wanted to buy it, but he said someone else bought it.Maybe it was eating steamed buns, he said, oh, it's so delicious.Brother Fatty came back from the army. He was a militia company commander, then a village chief, and then a secretary. Farming is comfortable now.There is no need to grow wheat anymore. Who knows, it’s troublesome. When the wheat is cut, it chokes people, the dust is the biggest, the nostrils are black, the face is also black, everywhere is black, and all sides are black.That is, when the wheat is harvested, it must be exposed to the greatest sun, so that it can be harvested.The hair on it, we call it beard, it is very itchy on the body, and the flour that I ate before was grown by myself, and I ate it myself. We called steamed buns and fat cakes, and they were all flour made by ourselves.Later, some flour was sold, and it was still white, so no one grew wheat, and now the overwhelming crops are rapeseed.It doesn’t need you to pick it up, just apply some herbicide, and there will be no grass. Top dressing, in the past, you grab a handful of urea in a bucket and pour it on the ground one by one. , take a bag of urea, sprinkle it, and it's over.What a joy to farm now. I said that when people are happy, I want to be happier, so I don’t make sweet potato chips.In the past, potato chips were made after harvesting the second-season rice. Every family did it, like a competition. On the rice field, straw was spread, and some picked two buckets of sweet potato mash, like mashed potatoes, all overnight. When they are finished, some of them still have crushed orange peels in them. Take a small table, a piece of mulch film, made of nylon, a beer bottle, and a basin of water, and roll it out there.Make the table as big as you want it to be, and then spread it on the grass and then peel it off, it's so beautiful. Sometimes, there are four or five people around, and there are no chickens on the rice field, so there is no need to watch.Change to another side when it is not sticky to your hands.When rushing, chat here and there.Sister Luo, Shui Lian, and the second sister above, and Xiao Wang's cousin, I call the next door sister, and Gui Feng, all chatting there, talking about it, talking about it, saying it and doing it I don't know if anyone eats it.Shui Lian said: "It's okay. In February and March, when the sky is long and the stomach is hungry, someone will eat it."Some people say: that is not necessarily the case.Another one said: By that time, you can eat anything. Not doing it now.There used to be a kind of fruit called Huaguo, but no one does it now.The flowers and fruits are made of flour, one red and one white, fried, fried very big and crispy, very delicious.No one is doing it now, and the ones that are made now are really rare (rare), and you will grab them as soon as you see them. The sunflower seeds that people buy nowadays are too expensive, no one buys them, and everyone buys sunflower seeds.Then there are broad beans, cheap, two yuan a catty, white melon seeds, six yuan a catty, and raisins, six yuan a catty, but no one buys them. I always tease the cowhide's son, saying that if you have any delicious food in your house, steal it out and let me eat it.He said that my father was a rape, bought a snail (cock) and put it upstairs for collection, but I couldn't find it for a long time.I said your father was adulterous, and he said: Of course. I went home and played cards for a few days.Twenty-six arrived home, twenty-seven did not play, washed the quilt, twenty-eight finished eating, twenty-eight we called getting rich, after getting rich, I was still washing clothes at the door, and a few card dealers came, Xiao Wang's sister-in-law, Lao San, Dongmei, Xiaofeng, and Xiaowang's sister-in-law, Chen Hong, kept shouting, "It's time to play cards, hurry up."I just stood there slowly, dying, and I thought to myself, I don’t want to play, I can’t play, I don’t even know how to play this card anymore, new ones, shaky ones, don’t want east-west north-south wind, account me I don't know it anymore, I want to shelter (sound), open my mouth, open four mouths, I don't know. They kept yelling, let me fight, I said I don't need to fight anyway, I don't know how to fight.Then they left and went to find the dealer.I didn't find it, so I came back again.Shouting there again.I said that, ah, I want to beat you.I don’t want to fight when I’m not fighting, but I play again when I’m fighting I was still grinding at home, and they moved out all the tables and chairs, and the cards were all done, and you were the only one missing.Just hit. Not very familiar, all lose.They like to win my money. The money I bring back from Beijing is all new, and the money at home is like lard residue.I like to spread out money, but it is also tattered. There is really no good money, and there is really no good money in the countryside. It was the night of the twenty-eighth, and I called for a day until I was cooking.Qitong also made it at night, but I didn't do it. I chatted there on the afternoon of the 29th, and it was Linerhuo who asked me who I played cards with, and I said it was Xiao Wang's second wife (that is, Dongmei, after Mu Zhen arrived in Beijing, Xiao Wang and Dongmei are good friends, everyone knows ), she said who told you, I said how long ago I knew, and who else needs to tell. She said: Then you know and play cards with her! I said: It's okay, I just pretended not to know. She said that's not okay, if it were me, I wouldn't play cards with her, but you still play cards with her.Wan Zhen said next to her: There is no such thing, so there is such a thing.I said stop pretending, everyone knows it, don't you?She said she didn't know.She said don't listen to other people's nonsense, Xiao Wang is not that kind of person.I said I don't care anyway, I'm not at home, I can't control it, and I don't care. When playing cards, someone said, Dongmei, you Miao (her daughter) came back, and she said, I know I didn’t come back, and her godfather took her to Beijing to play.In fact, everyone understands in their hearts, and the whole village knows that a godfather is a mistress. Xiang Miao was halfway through junior high school, and her father died, that "half day", also called "Pai Sheng", died of lung disease, so she stopped studying.She followed that younger brother, that is, her uncle, to Xinjiang to learn how to do business.After half a year, I came back again. When I came back, someone introduced her to Wuhan. At the beginning, she was said to be in an Internet cafe. Later, I didn’t know what to do. No one knew. She told her mother to help others watch it in the Internet cafe.Later, when she came home the year before last, I didn’t know. I thought she was a very honest and good child. Very foreign style, she came home on New Year's Eve, dragging a suitcase, and she also passed by our door, I asked that Chen Hong, and said: "What are you doing Miao, well dressed, she said you still I don't know, I said I don't know. She said that she was cooking chicken outside and had plenty of money.I bought a gold ring and a gold necklace from her mother, and I said I didn't know. Later I said to the sister next door: It’s God’s will, her father died, God gave her a bowl of rice to eat.She said: No one wants to eat this bowl of rice.Who can't be a bitch!I said that's true. She came back last year dressed well, and brought the young men from the village, all of whom were fifteen or sixteen years old, and she was seventeen.Went to Malian store, went skating, she treats guests.Playing billiards and buying food are all her treats. I just stayed for two days at home. On the first day of the new year, I went to my grandma's house to pay New Year's greetings, and played cards with the young man. It didn't matter if she lost.She left in the morning of the second grade of junior high school.I later asked Xiao Wang what Miao was doing in Wuhan.Xiao Wang said that she met a godfather there, and the godfather had two sons. He said that he would raise her as a daughter and that he would be his son's wife in the future.Xiao Wang said that Miao was not bad. The godfather sent her to school, and when he returned home last summer, he deactivated her own household registration and took her away.She asked her mother to stop farming last year and brought her to Wuhan. This year, Namiao, on the twenty-ninth afternoon, there are a bunch of children playing in front of my house. I have a pair of badminton rackets, every family has them, and they are all broken. My family has double poles. She played there, and she returned. Passed by my house again. She was dragging a suitcase, wearing a red leather jacket, walking, and playing with her mobile phone, which was also a red mobile phone. There were so many children, but no one paid attention to her. When the sister-in-law saw it and said, Miao came back, she just looked up. I looked at it, but didn't say anything.gone. The next day, at thirty, I watched her walking in front. Her mother, Dongmei, followed her. Some distance away, someone asked her mother: Dongmei, where are you going?She said that I am going to buy a color TV, and the family is too small.To buy a big color TV.They left, and I went to the pond to wash clothes. It happened that Xiao Lian was also washing clothes. She was not much, so I stood and waited for her.Just talk there, just talk about seedlings. She also said, oh, that seedling, what's so good about it, she thinks it's so glorious, but it's just shameless, I said just now that her mother said to buy a color TV, and said that her godfather took her to Beijing to play.She said: Oh hello, thank goodness she can still say it.What godfather? There are such good godfathers. Last year, I lost three mobile phones. I bought one after losing one, and bought another after losing one.He also said that the house at home was only built on one floor, and the house needs to be added to the second floor. If Miao quits, she will go to Wuhan to buy a house! She said: If you don't want that face, you can do nothing.She said that she could sleep even with an old man in her decades.Lian is the most straight-talking person, she can say what she can and cannot say, she doesn't say this in a low voice, she just says it out loud.There are people on the other side of the pond, I must have heard it. Her godfather is two years older than her mother, but in fact he is not too old. Godfather was born in 1964, and her mother is one year younger than me. She was born in 1966, probably Miao was born in 1964 and Miao was born in 1986. Later, when I came back from the laundry, they also bought a color TV.I went to the county seat by car, bought it and came back.I have a lot of clothes, two buckets of clothes.How much, no question. It's the first day, thirty, she changed her clothes after buying the color TV, put on long leather boots, and a miniskirt that was only that long, and dated those boys, went to Malian Store to play, invited them to skate, played Billiards, buy food.Later I said to Chen Hong: Hey, is it cold? Wear a short skirt with a part of your legs and crotch exposed.Chen Hong said: You fool, she was wearing flesh-colored socks, I said oh, I didn't see it.When they came back from playing at night, those boys came to my house to play, and I asked where they played.It is said that Malian store is full of Miao treats.I said, ouch, how can she have so much money?The boy said: Miao Shao Bao Qian (that is to say, a lot of money). This year is not the second day of junior high school, maybe the fourth day of junior high school. On the evening of the 30th, I played cards again. I played cards at the cowhide guest’s house. Now I don’t keep the New Year’s Eve. There are braziers burning in the house. No one is warming the fire. Some only children are at home, some have men at home, and some men come out to play cards , the woman makes bread at home, anyway, there is no family to guard it together. We play sevens, poker.Sticking door pairs, that is, couplets, are long and big door pairs.The guest of Chu Han, called Lahua, always likes to control men and not let him hit him. When Lahua comes in, the cowhide guest says: find a chair and sit down.We are at a thin table below, and there is a table above for playing mahjong.Let him sit down and say, today is thirty, you may not let him fight today.Lahua said: No, look at him slapping, he looks like a sick man, I don't want him to fight, don't fight late at night.Cowhide said: No one should fight late at night today. (Because the door has to be closed.) Call at most until twelve o'clock.It is said that we have to leave at twelve o'clock. Everyone said yes. Lahua said: Your mother is so aggressive, if you are someone else, you should buy fruits that are right for you. (We're both big door pairs) We just said: what size door pair did he buy? Lahua said: a little finer.You are so poor that you can't afford to buy a pair. Chu Han said, "I'm afraid, what's the matter, the big door is also a failure, and the small door is also a failure." Lahua said: "Look!" (It means not good-looking) We just laughed there and said, Chu Han, you are too serious, it is right to buy a gate!Everyone laughs. When everyone goes home at twelve o'clock, the cowhide will set off a thousand firecrackers. Later, when I went out to Tianfang, the fireworks were even more spectacular than what I saw at Beijing Gongti that year, that is, the successful bid for the Olympic Games, or the Universiade.It was set off on Maliandian Street, a road connecting several villages, just like this (Beijing) Ping'an Street, with houses on both sides, all of which are rich families, the fireworks are really beautiful. There is also more than half an hour.We just stood there watching, Batong couldn't hold on.After leaving Tianfang, after closing the door, put candles, offer incense, and take cannons, all of which are 10,000 heads, electrified ones, and the cattlemen put 30,000 heads. Put it all together, at twelve o'clock, the whole village is crackling.There are also fireworks in our village, not many. This year, ten households did not go home to celebrate the New Year. When our firecrackers are finished, we all go up to the river bank to watch the fireworks over there. Those eyes really can’t see, the son of the second eye , kept shouting there, oh, it's really fun, it's really fun!It's delicious.I asked: how is it?Spectacular?He said: What a spectacle!A child of thirteen.Qitong was also watching there, Batong fell asleep and couldn't cry out, Qitong went to shout, but she fell asleep and couldn't cry out.The guy didn't see it, and we watched for half an hour. Later, Li Xiang made an appointment with Qitong to go to the community temple, which is the earth temple.When they leave Tianfang, they all go there.Women can't go, only men can go, bring incense paper, can't talk, bring firecrackers.I want Qitong to go together, I said yes, hurry up, follow Uncle San, Xiao Wang is Uncle San, go together, his mother said: Uncle San will go in a long time, and I can't catch up.I said forget it, if you can’t go, don’t go, you didn’t see it just now, so if you saw you, let him wait. The next day everyone said that last night was really interesting, there were fireworks everywhere, and the daughter said it was a pity that her brother didn't call her.Her brother said: Why didn't I yell, you can't get up by yourself.She said I don't know.It was there in previous years, but not as good as this time. This is Xiaowang's second wife, Dongmei, she is not afraid, anyone who likes to talk, whoever talks, anyway, her husband died, and when she didn't, she was like that.Her husband is sick and repairs radios in Wuhan. Everyone knows her.She also likes to play cards, regardless of size, she plays.She went on the highway to call Limin's grandfather, who was over sixty years old, and she just made friends with him.At that time, she used to enter through the same gate as her mother-in-law. Although they separated, they did not open another gate. One night, the old man went to her house. Later, her parents-in-law blocked there and went out. not coming.This old man runs a shop and is rich. All his daughters and sons are paid wages. He partnered (partnership) with a low-class person to open a shop. The old man couldn't get out, so he knelt down in front of her parents-in-law and told them to be silent. The mother-in-law said he raped him and wanted to send him to the police station.Later he said it was private.After bargaining, I gave 2,000 yuan, which was more than enough. The people in the village laughed like hell, and they all said that this game is good, Dongmei has money to spend again on this game, doesn't she like to play cards, and said that this game is getting rich again.Some people say that if she does it like this, she can earn 20,000 yuan in ten rounds. This business is doing well.She didn't hear it. We were so naive back then, thinking about how she would meet people when she came out, sometimes she would come when we were talking, and she would greet you with a smile, as if nothing happened.When she's gone, we'll say, oh, why isn't she afraid of being ugly? There is another one, her husband Zhaoming who is on fire with Xianer, and no one in this village knows about it.Zhaoming did it quite covertly.During that time, I kept hearing Zhaoming say that I lost money, but later on, the thread was very fine, and she could detect it.At night, she would just watch her husband's tail, which we called catching the wrong man.She followed her for several nights and was finally caught by her.At that time, Dongmei's house opened another door, a single door.When the wire went in, the door was closed and not plugged in.She went in, and the two of them were doing good things at this time, Lin Erhuo pressed her husband's bare butt, and she spanked that ass and let him go home. She said her husband was shameless, but she didn't scold Dongmei. At that time, Dongmei's husband was still alive in Wuhan.Xianerhuo went home and the couple fought. The next day, when we were doing volunteer work, the whole village came out. Xianerhuo talked there, telling all about the night, Zhaoming was at home playing tricks (quarreling), Can't get angry.We said: You bitch, you are quite smart, why did you catch me.We don't know anything about it, and we can't see anything about him and Dongmei.No wonder, your family always talks about losing money, fifty today and one hundred tomorrow.Now I understand, it's all to Dongmei.He also said that the thread is hot, you bitch, why are you catching her, just turn a blind eye and close one eye, how nice, you two don't interfere with each other.She said, you bitch! When we were talking there, we just wanted to see how Dongmei came out to meet people, hey, she is still fine. Also, she said that as long as she has a big head sheep, it doesn't matter how long your beard is.There is also an old man who is over seventy years old. He also heard what they said. He played cards. The woman said while playing, what is the name of the old man? It was given by my daughter, and my daughter is in the county party committee.Oil, bucket by bucket, supplements and so on, she can get it back anyway, and she will bring it back to her father.Dongmei bought ten catties of oil at Xiye's house, we didn't believe it, the old man was not good-looking, and he was so old, she wanted it too, I really didn't believe it. Xian'erhuo said, forget it if you don't believe me, let me tell you, Xiye was covering vegetables in the vegetable garden that day. The vegetable garden was at the head of the village, and Xiye's house was also at the end of the village. It happened to be at the foot of Four Seasons Mountain, and the foot of the mountain was full of pine trees. The cowherds on the mountain saw Xiye's hand reaching into Dongmei's clothes, touching there.We said, let him touch it if it’s good or bad, and beat it out quickly, she said, she didn’t hit it, she still crossed her legs and let him touch it! We still don't believe it, she said, don't believe it, ask the cattleman if you don't believe it.We just believed it. When we play mahjong in the village, our women are afraid that the men will play against Dongmei. Da Lian told me that the men in Sister Mao’s family play cards, and Sister Mao will let anyone play cards. He is not allowed to play against Dongmei. Tooth bitch.Da Lian also didn’t let her husband play with her. These people just like to play with her. Once I asked a man in Da Lian why he liked to play with Dongmei. She just kisses you and lets people touch you.When she loses, she doesn't have to give money.He said: Unlike you, you don't allow people to kiss you. Now it's all right, the husband is dead, no one is in charge, and the sheep are herding.I came out and came home the year before last, and my nephew and daughter-in-law said to me: Oh, my house has no money.It is said that there is a chicken coop in Shangmalian store. The owner is a blind man named Blind Six, and his house is the chicken coop.Several women talked together and said, Dongmei, we have no money to spend, so go to the blind six's house to cook chicken.She said, I don't go there, I sit at home and someone sends me money.Chen Hong said: I am so angry that this winter plum is really valuable.Born in 1966.Looks average too.She is good-natured, she will not be angry if you say anything about her, she is willing to help when your family is busy.She never talks about other people's affairs, she is not like a hot line, she is crooked, and she always talks about others, Dongmei will not do it. My sister said that a girl from her natal village may also be a mistress for someone else. She works in a hair salon or a beauty salon. I didn’t see her. Rich, I heard that she has a very good job outside. This job is quite powerful. It helps her family. Her brother took the exam, but she didn’t do well in the exam, so she sent her brother to a military school. It was the godfather who made it.People in the village are quite envious. They don't know that she is a chicken. They still don't know. I think it's strange why I don't know now. The other day I talked to my sister and said that this is what makes chickens. It was mentioned in the book that the goddaughters are all mistresses. Only then did my sister understand and said: No wonder, she took her sister with her.Later, her younger sister also married, gave birth to a child, and gave the child to her natal family to raise. She married someone from another county. Later, her brother-in-law argued with her and refused to let her go to the hair salon. Her younger sister insisted on going. They all fell out.My sister said, no wonder the girl’s mother once told her that once her eldest daughter gave her a passbook, and it happened that her house was being built, and her mother couldn’t read, so she took a black plastic bag and wrapped it in it. In the bedside cabinet, I moved it outside when I moved. I don’t know how long it was stored, maybe two or three months, and I forgot.Later, the eldest daughter returned, but the furniture hadn't been moved in yet.So I asked: Mom, what about my passbook, her mother was confused at the time, saying oops, where I put it, I don’t remember.Later, I just searched, searched, it was still there, let her find it. Her mother asked her, how many children do you have here?她就挺轻松地告诉她妈，说：有几多儿啊，就你做的这屋（盖的是两层楼呢），能有四五幢！她妈当时吓着腿都软了，说要是丢了可怎么办！ 我姐就说，怪不得，她们都有钱。说哎呀，这个事儿啊，打死我也做不了。我宁可天天在家里做生活（就是干活），天天挑草头（就是挑稻谷，捆成一捆的那种），她说赚这个钱，么味啊！我说，人跟人不一样，她生出来，就是那个德性。 我姐又说王大钱，我在家也听别人说，王大钱，跟三丫离了又复，复了又离，弄了好几次，算命的说，三丫是带钱的，有财，说王大钱离了就没钱了，就反复几次，后来彻底离了，去年又结婚了。娘家村的外甥说，他这个三姨父是个老嫖客，极不要脸啊！去年，找了一个二十多岁的，生了一个儿子，又不要了，都不要了。我当时也没问他，这王大钱，跟三丫生了三个女儿，王大钱做了结扎手术，不能生育了，那个女的怎么可能生一个儿子，肯定有问题。要不就是那么有钱，做了一个试管的儿子？（木珍经常看报纸，知道试管婴儿）
