Chapter 64 Noon of youth like a song (3)

"That's right, these people should be sued!" Xiao Hui waved his arms emphatically and said, "But why did you lose?" "They said that I have a problem with my brain, why do you think I have a problem with my brain!" Chen Sheng was finally pushed up by the anger and stood up. He stomped his feet and said, "There was a man who sold duck pears in our town that year. He sold them for sixty cents a catty. I bought four catties of pears for Yang Xiu. This is two yuan and forty cents. I gave him five yuan, but he just gave me two yuan and eight cents, and I gave it back to him. Yes, but don’t ask others to give alms. I asked him how much four times six is.” Chen Sheng patted his thigh and said, “He also told me straightforwardly, isn’t four times six equal to twenty-two? You didn’t study hard when you were young, I can't even figure out such a simple account!" Xiao Hui laughed until his body heaved like a wave, and Wang Laixi's woman laughed so hard that she couldn't hold on to the work she was doing.

Chen Sheng slammed a blowfly flying towards him with his hand, and then said: "How can you say that my mind is wrong? I am not confused, and I know everything in my mind!" "Then when you complain How did you tell the officials in the city?" Little Hui asked. "I asked them to compensate my daughter-in-law first, and they asked me why? I said that Yang Xiu was seriously ill, and because he had no money, he couldn't afford to stay in a hospital or have a surgery, so he had to stay at home. You have the money from the Zhang Luo Games, how many people you can operate on, Yang Xiu can’t die. Then they laughed, laughing like mud, and then, later—” Chen Sheng Whispering, his brow began to sweat, he stammered, "They, just, just said that for, this fun, the roads in the city, all, have been widened, and, and... Anyway, it's not possible , don’t play, and then, then…” Xiaohui said jokingly: “Then they just asked your name, where you lived, called our town, and sent someone to bring you back, saying that you Crazy, aren’t you?” “Little Hui!” Wang Laixi’s woman said sternly, “Go back to work in the fields, how did you learn to be so glib?” Xiao Hui still didn’t think he had teased Chen Sheng enough, and continued: : "Who said Yang Xiu is dead? Don't you knit things for her every day at noon?" Chen Sheng tilted his neck, looked straight at somewhere, his hands were hanging empty, this time not only his forehead was sweating , the snot came out, he trembled his lips, and said: "That's right, I have to go home, the sewing machine for Yang Xiu hasn't finished yet—" Chen Sheng moved his feet as he spoke, but the direction he was going was not the door He was blocked by a fence, and he said to himself, "What's wrong?" Wang Laixi's woman had already picked up the pair of shoes that Chen Sheng had sat on, and threw them at Xiaohui like a grenade.One hit him on the chest, and he scratched his chest a little; before his chest straightened up again, the second shoe hit his right ear again, and the right ear turned red like a rooster's comb.Xiao Hui was in a hurry, he jumped up in pain, and said in a crying voice, "Others are teasing Chen Sheng, why can't I tease him?"

"You are not big or small, you are an outrageous thing!" The woman rushed towards Xiao Hui with her bare feet.Xiao recalled that the feeling of being beaten was really uncomfortable, so he ran away.He didn't even bring a basket with him when he left, whether he would pick beans again, only the sunshine who followed him would know. Chen Sheng was led outside the door by Wang Laixi's woman. The woman was so anxious that she didn't even bother to put on her shoes. She coaxed a child and said to Chen Sheng, "Don't worry, wait until I go back and put on your shoes, and I'll take you back home." Home. When Xiaohui comes back at night, I will beat him!" Chen Sheng shook his hand and said, "I know home, and my eyesight is good, so I won't go into the river. Why are you sending me? Isn't your pepper still unworn? Is it over? There is still your horse, what if it will cry when it comes back later? You have so many things to send to me, and I am not a child..." Chen Sheng babbled, let go of his pace and walked back .Wang Laixi's woman sighed when she saw that he was still walking, and let him go.

Chen Sheng had dinner at Fu Yucheng's house.It was fried potato pancakes, Chen Sheng ate six of them, and a bunch of farts came out, which made Fu Yucheng's three girls giggle.Fu Yucheng was a carpenter, very thin, but married a fat wife, which made Chen Sheng envious.However, this chubby woman gave birth to three daughters in a row, and the person in charge of family planning asked her to undergo sterilization. Fu Yucheng was so frightened that he took his wife to hide with relatives in other provinces for half a year before returning.When she came back, the woman's stomach was bulging again, and in the spring of the following year, she gave birth to a boy, but it was a deformed baby, whose head was three times larger than normal babies, but with thin arms and legs, and lay on the kang all day long, babbling. Yelling, he doesn't know anything except eating, drinking, and sleeping. He is a three-year-old child, and even his parents can't bark. Fu Yucheng is so worried that his hair turns gray, while his wife loses a lot of weight.They don't dare to continue having children anymore, for fear that God will do something wrong to their family and give them another burden.Others call this child "Fu Datou".Chen Sheng liked to tease him very much, and he knew Chen Sheng too. When he saw Chen Sheng coming, the corners of his mouth watered, and his little hands, which were particularly white and tender because of the lack of sunlight, made a gesture of scratching. Drying his saliva, he leaned over and kissed his cheek.

Fu Datou's eyes are very round, and the few fluffy yellow hairs on his head were brought from the womb, and he no longer grows hair.His three older sisters liked him very much, and usually scratched his armpits, although he didn't respond.They also competed to feed him and wash his feet, completely treating him as a cartoon toy.But when it was his turn to shit on the kang, the three sisters ran away holding their noses, and Fu Datou's mother was always the one who dealt with such matters.She often wiped her tears while wiping the shit, and sometimes she got the shit in the corner of her eyes, attracting flies to fly there.All the children in the town knew that Fu Datou was a deformed child, so at first they liked to come to Fu Yucheng's house to see the child, treating him like a monster. Fu Yucheng was unhappy and closed the door early every day.Under the education of their parents, the children also felt that seeing Fu Datou all the time would make the Fu family feel uncomfortable, so they stopped going.But Chen Sheng can go, because everyone thinks he is the most unfortunate person in the town.When a most unfortunate person goes to see an unfortunate person, the family of that unfortunate person seems to see a ray of light.So as soon as Chen Sheng came, the Fu family would give him his seat, bring him water, and sometimes let him eat.Chen Sheng was not too polite, and he ate as he asked.But those meals were basically for him to catch up with, and none were prepared for him alone.But recently, Fu Yucheng often sent his daughter to invite Chen Sheng. A pot of stewed dishes with meat or baked a few sugar cakes would not let Chen Sheng miss the blessing.Sometimes Fu Yucheng would invite Chen Sheng to drink a few cups. After drinking, he would say that his life was miserable. He lost his mother when he was young, gave birth to three girls, and finally had a son who was still a waste. He was worried that both he and his wife would die. In the future, Fu Datou will be left alone, "I knew I shouldn't have given birth to him." At the end, this sentence always appears solemnly like an offering.Chen Sheng stuck his thick neck and said righteously: "Don't worry, I will take care of Fu if you two die. If you die tomorrow, I will take care of you tomorrow!" Fu Yucheng couldn't laugh or cry with his swearing appearance.Recently, Fu Yucheng often ordered Chen Sheng to hold Fu Datou, but the child was not allowed to hold him, and Chen Sheng couldn't hold the big head so heavy that he was in a hurry, fearing that if the other end turned slightly, it would break his thin neck and fall to the ground.Because every ripe and big pumpkin always pulls the vines that hold it thinner and thinner, and finally the melon is completely detached from the vines.Chen Sheng didn't want Fu Datou's head to be separated from his neck like that.So when Fu Yucheng let him hug him again, he was always extra careful, but the child's saliva made his shoulders wet and sticky, with a foul smell.Seeing that Chen Sheng was able to hold Fu Datou in his arms, the Fu family encouraged him to go out and play in the river to see if Fu Datou was not afraid of getting into the water.Chen Sheng bit his tongue and shrank his shoulders and said, "No, no, what if he falls into the river and drowns? That's not a joke!"

"You didn't do it on purpose, and we don't blame you for drowning." Fu Yucheng said. "You say so, but you still blame it in your heart." Chen Sheng said, "This child is so rare. If I take him out and drown him, you have to think about him?" Chen Sheng was killed tonight. Fu Yucheng's second girl was called to eat potato pancakes.After Chen Sheng finished eating, he also fed Fu Datou a bowl of fried rice with eggs.Fu Yucheng refused to let his son eat potato pancakes, because he thought he could not digest while lying on the kang, and he would groan and bark at night because of his bloated stomach, which disturbed the whole family to sleep.But Chen Sheng felt that Fu Datou should try the taste of potato cakes, so after feeding him fried rice with eggs, Chen Sheng stretched out his stalactite-like tongue for Fu Datou to lick. The taste of the potato pancakes was mellow enough, but Fu Datou refused to lick it, causing Chen Sheng to stretch out his tongue, and his saliva dripped down onto Fu Datou's face.Fu Datou probably thought the saliva was tears, so he burst into tears, unstoppable.Although Fu Datou was young, his crying sound was very hoarse and full of vicissitudes, so that the neighbors once mistakenly thought that Fu Yucheng was crying, and they all sighed and sympathized for him in private. "Oh, his life is really pitiful, raising such a stupid son." Therefore, the next day after Fu Datou cried, if Fu Yucheng met someone who heard the cry in the town, they would persuade him: "Hey, old Fu, don't worry too much when it's over. How about crying yourself out?" Fu Yucheng didn't explain, he felt that it was no different from crying himself, because the misfortune between father and son was in the same line.Especially when he met Huang Liande, Fu Yucheng realized how serious his suffering was.Huang Liande's family also gave birth to a fool, but he can walk freely in the streets and alleys. He is eleven years old this year and can help Huang Liende herd sheep, although he often leaves two or three sheep behind when he returns from herding sheep, causing his family to turn around and go back again. Look for it, but it's not so stupid that it's useless.Huang Liande usually had a pale face, frowned and didn't like to talk, but when he met Fu Yucheng, he asked Fu Yucheng kindly and caringly.That's why Fu Yucheng was most afraid of seeing Huang Liande, and if he saw his shadow from a distance, he would go around and walk away.This also made Fu Yucheng vow to find someone more unfortunate than himself, to see him often, to weaken and slow down his misfortune, and to give him a chance to breathe in the face of the cruel existence. As a result, Chen Sheng was like the middle of winter Like a frog lying in ambush under the ice, he was dug out alive.His innocence and desolation that did not match his age gave Fu Yucheng some kind of comfort.
