Chapter 14 woman's manifesto

This is a "hen crow" morning. The hens in Guitian's family were "waterlogged" and screamed "啯啯啯" all day long. "Laobao" is a rural dialect, which means that a hen does not lay eggs, becomes abnormal, imitates the sound of a rooster, and only wants to make a nest. It is probably a love story of chickens.But the women of the Guitian family didn't care about these things, they only hated it for not laying eggs, so they chased and beat it all over the yard.After grabbing the chicken's wings, he beat and cursed: "Bitch, I'll call you cheap!" He brought it to the river and threw it into the river to soak it!It is said that throwing it in the river and soaking it will make the chicken "change".So, that morning, the whole river was filled with the sound of "啯啯啯啯"!

On such a morning, Liu Hanxiang walked through the long village street with a small bundle on her shoulders, and stepped into the dilapidated courtyard.At that time, the village street was quiet, there were not many passers-by, and there was only an old woman pushing the ground under the locust tree.This old woman is the concubine of the crippled Changming. She has a bad mouth and is nicknamed "Little Broadcasting".She bent her legs, leaned forward, and circled the roller.Push it over, suddenly the eyes light up!The old woman thought to herself, isn't this Hanxiang?Why... just what, she couldn't explain clearly for a while, but felt a little strange.Later, she patted her legs and said to people, she cut off her braids, all her braids were cut off!

When Liu Hanxiang walked into the yard, the "dangers" of the old uncle's house were drinking from old Hai bowls.Suddenly, the sound of "chiliu" stopped, and the small eyes rolled out from the rim of the bowl, staring blankly at her.Du Lao Wu was smarter, what a bastard, he pushed the bowl and shouted happily: "Sister Hanxiang!" Liu Hanxiang stood in the yard, her face turned red at first, the cloth red, the bottom red.Then, she raised her head, looked at the eggs, paused for a while, took a deep breath, and corrected her in a low but clear voice: "—I'm sister-in-law."

The eyes of the eggs lit up all of a sudden, and the sudden surprise was like a bird that exploded its nest, flying around!The sea bowls fell to the ground one by one, and they all smiled silly as if they had no place to put their hands.It was the old fifth who was the first to call out: "Sister-in-law, sister-in-law!" When Liu Hanxiang looked over, the youngest son Goudan licked his lips and said, "Sister-in-law." The fourth son, Guadan, felt ashamed first, and said softly, "Sister-in-law." The second son, Tiedan, hooked his head low and hummed... At this moment, Liu Hanxiang waved his hand and said, "You son of a bitch, come here."

Lao Wu was overjoyed.He bumped up to Liu Hanxiang, Liu Hanxiang touched his head pityingly, then squatted down, untied the baggage she brought with her, and took out one pair from the inside, she took out five pairs in a row Shoes, five pairs of cloth shoes with black sides and white soles.She put the smallest pair on for Nudan and said, "Little brother, does it fit?" They put them on their feet... Until the end, she came to the old uncle with the pair of shoes. She put the shoes on the ground in front of the old man and said quietly: "Father, a family cannot live without Woman. I'm here now."

The old uncle squatted there, still holding the sea bowl in both hands, without saying a word.After a while, he raised his head, and his face was covered with tears!The old tears were soaked in wrinkles, criss-crossing, flowing line by line... He whimpered and said, "My child, I really... have wronged you." Liu Hanxiang said quietly: "This is what I want." Suddenly, the yard was lit up.The men were also angry.In this dilapidated courtyard, it seemed as if a ray of light came flying, the sparrows jumped, the weeds on the roof bounced to life, the pile of firewood pulled by wolves was packed up in an instant, and the door frame was already full of firewood. The faded old red seems to be a little brighter, and even the old scythe left by the window sill is a little more vivid. Above the door lintel, the sign of "Military Glory" is very eye-catching for a while.The yard has not been swept for a long time, and it is still dirty, but there is a warm atmosphere in the dirt.That's right, when a woman stands in the courtyard, everything comes to life.

In the morning, Liu Hanxiang led the eggs to clean the yard and tidy up the house.Wearing a blue burgage sweat towel commonly used by country women, she was busy inside and outside the house like a commander, directing the eggs to sweep away the old dust everywhere... At this moment, all the eggs are ready. You can imagine the joy of seeing a sparrow called Chi-cha!The fifth child said: "Sister-in-law, do you want to sweep the beam?" Liu Hanxiang said: "Sweep." The fourth child said: "Sister-in-law, do you want to move the wooden table?" Liu Hanxiang said: "Move it. First carry it to the west." The third child Said: "Sister-in-law, this bed is missing a leg. It was broken by the fifth child..." The fifth child said, "Nonsense! I broke it?" Liu Hanxiang said, "It's okay, just drop it, put it in, and use it later." On the bricks." The second son is strong and the one who does the most work, but most of the time he doesn't say anything, just look at Liu Hanxiang's eyes, wherever Liu Hanxiang's eyes sweep, his hands will reach out...

The old uncle's house has four thatched houses and one stove house.Among the four thatched huts, three are connected; the single room was originally a place to store firewood and grain in winter, but now Liu Hanxiang tidied it up, and put firewood and grain in half of the room (the so-called grain is no longer available. There are only half a urn of corn grits, half a urn of dried sweet potato noodles, and a pile of sweet potatoes), and this half becomes her living place.There was no bed for a while, so I spread some straw on the ground, a mat, and a floor bunk.It was nearly noon when everything was settled.At this time, Liu Hanxiang first boiled a large pot of hot water and asked the eggs to wash their hands and faces one by one. After washing, they stretched out their hands one by one for her to check. Hit them and let them wash again.The faces of the eggs were all washed red, it's been a long time, and it's only this time that they are clean!

Since Liu Hanxiang entered the door, the old uncle has become an old mill without a shaft.People seem to be silly, he just follows around in and out of the house, "grinding" very badly, wanting to intervene everywhere, but when he intervenes, he always gets in the way of someone else.As for the eggs, it's like the old army has a new leader that can be supported, humming in the nose, completely ignoring him... He just turns around like that, seeing that he is really useless, and likes it. Xidi turned to the village street. The sun is good.The old uncle was walking down the village street in a daze. He really wanted to say something to someone, but his eyes were soaked with tears of joy, and everything he saw was blurred.There was a dog lying at the base of the wall. He bent over and leaned forward and said, "Dongsheng, is it Dongsheng?" , he lowered his body again and said, "Is it Guangcai?"

At this time, someone behind him said: "Old uncle, your eyes are too blind, that is Guangcai's dog!" The old uncle laughed and said, "Look at this, look at this." Then, he turned around and said following the sound: "Tofu family, don't go, I'll credit you two catties of tofu!" The tofu family said: "Old uncle, is the sun coming out from the west?!" The old uncle said: "It's business, it's business. I'll credit you two catties of tofu." The tofu family carried the load and said as they walked: "Old uncle, your mouth is loose? No matter how loose you are, I have no more tofu. I ground a plate of tofu and gave it to Dong Village. Dong Village has 'good'. "

The old uncle muttered, "This man doesn't even ask about anything, he just leaves." The old man squatted in the sun for a while, and the sun was so warm that it made him feel lazy.But there were very few passers-by, and even half of them were in a hurry and didn't want to say anything to him.Finally, a rider came over, and he shouted: "Hey, hey, old horse. Is it horse glasses? Hey, don't go, listen to me..." But when he stood up, the man He passed by by bicycle, but he was an outsider. Afterwards, he hunched over and walked to the door of the consignment store just like that.The dinner hall left early, and there were always people at the consignment point.When he went in, his waist straightened a little, first he touched his eyes with his sleeve, and then said: "Dong Lai, pay the whip on credit!" Dong Lai blinked, hesitated for a long time before saying: "Old uncle, You don't have a fever, do you?" At this time, the two old men lying in front of the counter chatting with Donglai laughed "Tun'er".The old uncle didn't mind either, so he said, "What are you talking about, boy." Donglai said in a sarcasm, "Don't you have a fever? Hmph, I thought you were sick. It's not a year or a festival, you let it go The door cannon?!" The old uncle said: "It's business, this is business. You get me a whip!" Dong Lai should have asked, why "whip"?But Donglai just didn't ask.Donglai said: "You need to hang a fire whip, don't you?" The old uncle said: "Yes, take a fire whip!" Donglai said contemptuously: "There is a whip, have you brought money?" The old uncle said : "I'll hang you up on credit first, and settle the account after the fall." Dong said: "That won't work, I don't pay on credit." The old uncle straightened his waist and said, "Dong Lai, why can't I get credit when others get it? I will Is it because of you to hang the whip?!" Dong said: "Others are others, you are you. Others can be credited, but I don't credit 'whip'." The old uncle rubbed his eyes with his sleeve again and said: "Take it Hurry up and take it. Don’t mess with your uncle.” Donglai became angry for no reason: “Who messed with you?! If everyone is like you, this consignment will have been lost long ago!” The old uncle stared blankly. Looking at him, he said, "No credit?" He said, "No credit!" Suddenly, Dong Lai's body leaned out from the counter, his smile was like a chrysanthemum, with lines, and he opened it as soon as he said it.He smiled and said, "Hey, Hanxiang is here? It's rare for Hanxiang to come to my small shop!" Liu Hanxiang stood at the door and said quietly, "How much is the fire whip?" Dong Lai was stunned for a moment, and said, "You want a whip too?" Then he said, "Yes, yes!" Liu Hanxiang said, "How much is it?" Dong Lai turned around and took out two hanging fire whips from the cabinet, and said, "There are five hundred or one thousand, which one do you want? Let me tell you, just one thousand?" Liu Hanxiang said, "I'm asking how much it costs to hang up?" Dong Lai flattered him and said, "What money are you talking about? No money. If you don't come easily, take it away." Liu Hanxiang said: "How much money is how much money, what is this for? If you don't talk about money, I don't want it." Donglai's face was still "smiling", but he was a bit "tasteful", so he said cautiously: "Look, it's fine if you want to talk. Let's talk about it? Let's talk about it later." But he looked at Liu Hanxiang, and his heart was full Tightly, he said aggrievedly: "Why don't you keep the account first? Just keep the account. One yuan and eight, the purchase price is one yuan and eight..." Liu Hanxiang didn't say anything else, she took out a hand-sewn flower purse from her pocket, took out a five-yuan paper note from it, put it on the counter, and said, "Weigh the salt again." That's it. As she said that, she casually picked up the thousand-headed fire whip, handed it to the old uncle, and said softly, "Father, you should go back first." The old uncle was holding the fire whip, his eyes were blurred with tears, and his hands were shaking. He turned around and walked out without saying anything. The sound of "Dad" stunned everyone in the room!Dong Lai opened his mouth wide, and the two old men in the room also opened their mouths wide. Suddenly, they looked like three dumb temples!That eye suddenly became a dead glass bead, staring blankly without moving.For a long time, the consignment point was completely silent! Liu Hanxiang said again: "Weigh a catty of salt." It took Donglai a long time to wake up, and he murmured: "Salt, oh salt." Then, like a frozen puppet, he turned around slowly, picked up the weighing pan and went to the salt cabinet Dig for salt.When digging for salt, his expression was very dazed. When the weighing pan dipped into the salt, there was a muffled sound of "chi la", as if the salt grains had marinated his heart! No one said anything, and no one said anything more.The consignment is a bit dumb... At noon, when the "fire whip" exploded in front of the old uncle's house, the entire village was dumb! The hanging whip was picked out by the old five.The fifth child stood on the top of the wall, proudly holding the fire whip with a bamboo pole, and said loudly: "Sister-in-law, sister-in-law! I light it, I can light it!" That "sister-in-law" was very crisp, and the sound "Sister-in-law" is also extraordinarily ostentatious, it is clearly shouted to the whole village, it sounds like a fuck!When the cannon rang, the children ran out wow, and looked around in the smoke of gunpowder first, "Hey, yah, yah... Then, you squeezed each other, and went all over the ground to pick up the scattered whips that had blown up. . However, it didn't take long for the women's shouts to rise!The venomous scolding sounded one after another, like donkey dung rolling all over the street, or broken gongs, floating in the air of the village street one after another: "Guai, where did you die? ""Pian, Pian'er, kill you! It's been a while since I watched it, and I'm not coming back!" "Ling'er, Ling! Grabbing a filial piety hat?!" "Er Huo! Did you get into your mother's cunt? You can't see it all day Home?!" "Hai, Haizi, if you don't come back again, I will peel you off!"...The "little broadcaster" who pushed the grinder threw away the grindstone, and she stopped pushing it a long time ago, and she went to "stop" around.Yes, in an instant, everyone in the village knew about it.Liu Hanxiang, that is the "painter" of Shangliang, that is simply the "imperial concubine" of Shangliang!That's it, that's it... huh?Black eyes, this is really black eyes! ! The women came out anyway, and the "little radio" had spread the news all over the village.There are ten thousand worms in the women's hearts, and the itching is unbearable, so they walk up the village street one by one, from west to east, and then from east to west, some are carrying children, some are carrying buckets, and some are carrying dustpans... …When he walked past the door of the old uncle's house, he staggered and looked inquisitively, as if he wanted to "interview" something.At first, some people didn't believe it.But someone really saw Liu Hanxiang, it really is Hanxiang!After a while, all I saw was Liu Hanxiang's back. Liu Hanxiang was pulling a long rope in the yard, and was drying the quilts for the "eggs"... Go on, go straight east, go straight, and you will be the home of Party Secretary Liu Guodou .When they saw the gate building, they slowed down a bit, and they didn't dare to get too close, so they walked across the road from a distance, glanced, and then glanced again, only to see the double gates of the branch secretary's house were closed. Tight! Looking around, people couldn't help but mutter in their hearts: Guodou, he is the party secretary!That is a strong man, a tough man, will he "recognize" it?He just "recognized" in vain? ! After the women watched it two or three times, suddenly, Liu Hanxiang walked out of the yard.She stood at the gate of the courtyard, facing the entire village street, facing women who came to spy on them for various reasons, her face was still quiet, a little awe-inspiring, a little arrogant, and a little unexpected "" declare" means.She was wearing an apron around her waist, and she stood there firmly, as if to say, look, take a good look, this is me, Liu Hanxiang! The women suddenly felt a little embarrassed.On the village street, the women smiled mischievously and said, "Han Xiang... borrow, borrow a dustpan." Liu Hanxiang smiled and said, "Dustpan?" The woman pointed her finger and said incoherently: "Chammer home, Shang hammer home, dustpan." Another woman came over and said the same thing again, "Han Xiang,... bucket, bucket." Liu Hanxiang smiled and said, "How about returning the barrel?" The woman babbled and said: "Yu'er's house, the barrel is still leaking, it's mile-like..." There are also those with children in their arms, saying: "Hanxiang, look, you are not up to date at all, just pull a trouser pocket..." Liu Hanxiang said, "How about going to the river?" The woman said in a panic: "Well, on the river. Sit down." The women walked by one by one, but a donkey was secretly tied to the "heart", and they kept curling their lips.Sweeping across the street corner, they gathered together in groups, chattering and saying: "God, what kind of things can't be found? What kind of things can't be found? Why did I go to his house?!" "I thought, It's fate in the eyes of the clouds. I don't know how powerful it is. Who knows, it fell into the cesspool!" You have to run back!" "No, who is Han Xiang? He is a nobleman. He was raised in a honey jar since he was a child, and he has never been wronged at all. What kind of life was he then? What kind of life is this... "This girl, I really can't see through! What's the matter? Can Guodou rely on her?!..." "Running must be run. If I can't see through, dig out my eyeballs as a Pee foam!" "What kind of family, a nest of bachelors, a nest of lice! Why did she fall in love with her?!" Not long after, the women finally found out the secretary's attitude.At a cadre meeting in the village, when someone mentioned Hanxiang, Party Secretary Liu Guodou gritted his teeth and said with a dark face, "Don't mention her! She is not my daughter. I don't have such a daughter! From now on From now on, I will break up with her!" Yes, in Shangliang, in a village with a radius of hundreds of miles, Liu Hanxiang made an exception: there was no dowry, no dowry, no company from her natal family, and even no approval from a man (the man is still in the army), so she just I went to live with my in-laws alone! What is the picture?
