Chapter 170 Xiaopo's birthday-Xiaopo and his sister

My elder brother was born when my father opened a Chinese goods store in Dapo, so he was called Dapo.As for Xiaopo himself, he was born after his father's shop was moved to Xiaopo. Although his name is not as generous and pleasant as his elder brother's, it has the same origin, and there is no doubt about it. However, when my younger sister was born, the Chinese goods store was still open in Xiaopo, so why didn't she also call her Xiaopo?Or Xiao Xiaopo?Or Er Xiaopo and so on?And why is it called Xianpo?Whenever I called my sister, I was a little confused.According to Xiaopo's experience of traveling around his family and school, and from various inquiries, there is indeed no street in Singapore called Xianpo.What do you think this can do!This question is as incomprehensible as "why the younger sister must be a girl".Why isn't brother a girl?Why must my sister be called Xianpo instead of Xiaoxiaopo or Erxiaopo?Just don't think about it, hey!Just thinking about it makes me so confused!

Mother said this: Dapo was born there, and Xiaopo and Xianpo were born there, which is enough to be confused for a long time; He himself picked it up from the electric pole in Xiaopo, and his sister picked it up from a banana leaf.Well, where is the relationship between the words banana leaf and Xianpo?Besides, are "raw" and "picked up" the same thing, or are they two different things? "Mom, mom, so confused!" Not bad at all. I have no choice but to be confused!Ask your father to go?do not!Father is the most difficult person in the world: if he asks you something, if you shake your head and can't answer it, you will be in danger of being stung in the ear.But when you ask him, you can’t guess whether he knows and doesn’t say anything on purpose; or if he really doesn’t know, he always says with a straight face: “Don’t ask!” “Shut his mouth!” You see, It's a trivial matter that you can't sing when you sew your mouth, how can you eat bananas!

Ask brother?Pooh!Who is so serious to ask brother!He hid all those books with pictures and didn't show them to us, and when he thought of his brother, he felt a little bit resentful! "Wait!" Xiaopo muttered to himself, "When I grow up and get rich, I'll buy books worth 20 cents. There are a lot of them, all with pictures! Tear off the pictures and stick them on On the spine, show everyone! Hmph!" Ask my sister?well!After asking several times, she always shook her two big black braids, and shouted softly while running: "Mom! Mom! My second brother asked me why I was called Xianpo!" So the mother left the girl Come on, don't ask to play with him again.This kind of punishment is what Xiaopo fears the most, because his father loves Xianpo, and his mother and brothers also love her. Xiaopo always thinks that he loves his sister more than his parents and brothers to be happy; Woolen cloth!

"Last night, who gave my sister a pair of oily betel nuts? It was our Xiaopo!" Xiaopo counted one by one with his fat toes: "It was raining the other day, who carried my sister back from the street?" We, Xiaopo! Don’t tell me to play with her? Hmph! When we were having dinner that day, who was fighting with my sister? We,..." Thinking of this, he flipped one of his toes back, acting as if he didn’t do that at all. It's a big deal; there is such a benefit in using your toes to settle accounts. If you are embarrassed to do the calculations, you can turn your toes back at will.

I still want to say hello to my mother. Although her words change every day, they are so sweet.Embarrassed by her mother's question, she rolled over the most kind and beautiful pair of eyes in the world, and said: "My sister's name is Xianpo, because she was sent by an old fairy with a white beard in the middle of the night." After hearing this, Xiaopo thought the answer was rather interesting.So he pointed to the grapefruits under the table and said, "Mom! Last night, I also saw the old fairy with the white beard. He said to me: Xiaopo, here are some grapefruits for you. After finishing speaking , put the grapefruit under the table and left."

Mom had no choice but to open a grapefruit for everyone to eat; I will never mention the old fairy with white beard again.Why the younger sister is called Xianpo is still unresolved. Dapo went to school in order to study to please his parents.Xiaopo also goes to school - specially for playing truant.If you pretend to have a headache and lie at home, your mother will come and see you later.Since I can't play freely, I have to pretend to hum when my mother comes. What a ridiculous thing to "hum hum".Heh, heh, he burst out laughing.It doesn't matter much if you tell your mother to see the flaw, even if you ask her to hit it twice, it won't hurt there.But my mother has a small problem: I tell my father everything, and when my father comes back, she mutters, mutters, and tells him things as small as the tip of a needle.Anyone in the world is easy to offend, just don't offend your father.What he saw with his own eyes that day: his father, with a straight face, solemnly slapped Old India, the janitor of the domestic product store, in the ear with two loud seeds.India, the gatekeeper, is a "great man" in Xiaopo's eyes. The "great man" still needs to be slapped twice by his father, so if Xiaopo's pretending to be sick and not going to school is heard by his old man, at least he won't get as many as four or eight slaps!What's more, father has two gold rings on his finger, hit on the head, mouth bang!No wonder I can't afford a green bag the size of an olive!It's better to go to school with my brother.When I arrived at school, when my teacher was dozing off, or crawling on the desk to correct papers, I would sneak out without anyone noticing.After playing enough on the street or on the coast, I would sneak back and go home for dinner with my brother.Anyway, he is not in the same class as his brother, so he has no way of knowing.If my brother didn't know, my mother wouldn't know.If the mother does not know, the father has no way of knowing.The people in the family are like a small tower, with one floor controlling the other.As soon as the bottom layer is seamed, the top layer is like a fool who doesn't know anything.think about it!How ridiculous it is for my father to sit on the top of the pagoda like a fool!

In this way, skipping school is not a very dangerous thing.But my younger sister is not on guard: she is good at listening to Feng'er and taking advantage of Xiaopo's words, and then reports to her mother.But my sister was easy to talk, and when he lost his mind, he hurriedly gave her a broken horseshoe picked up in the street, or a piece of chalk picked up in the church.She pursed her mouth and didn't say a word. And he was used to bribery like this, even if he told his sister straight up that he played truant again, her sister wouldn't believe it. "Immortal! I picked up a very good, beautiful little glass bottle!" "Where is it? Second brother, give it to me!"

The vial changed hands. "Fairy! I skipped school again!" "You didn't, Second Brother! Go pick up the vial, how can you play truant again?" After all, my sister is cute, just look at how superb her thinking is!So he told her his experience of truancy in detail, and she never learned from her mother. "As long as you love your sister, playing truant is not dangerous!" Xiaopo often advises his schoolmates like this. Xiaopo has two aspirations, which only his younger sister knows: to be the gatekeeper in India (the larger shops in Singapore have Indians guarding the gate at night.) and to be a Malay patrolman.

According to Xiaopo: How dignified and beautiful India is as a gatekeeper!His head was wrapped in a big white cloth, and he had a big black and red face with a long beard, a high nose, and deep eyes. He looked really decent and blessed.There are several pockets on the top of the big white sweatshirt, and according to Xiaopo's guess, there are peanuts, boiled peas, betel nuts, or two pieces of chicken cakes.That big floral cloth skirt is even more beautiful, with red and willow green flowers covering her big black legs with fur, and two black and bright big-footed ducks are naked underneath.All day long, I don't have to worry about doing things, I just sit in front of the door and watch the excitement, so I can't be free, so I play with the seams of the ducks.Although the Bodhisattvas in Tianxian Palace are also very decent and beautiful, Bodhisattvas do not have the freedom to string their legs together.The two black and white generals standing on both sides of Mr. Guan, the black one is too black, the white one is too white, they are not as powerful and not fierce as India, the gatekeeper, and the blackness is just right. (Of course, this is not Xiaopo’s words, but that’s what he meant.)

What's more, I sleep in front of the door at night, so I don't need to go into the house, and I don't need to go to bed when the time comes.Lying down in front of the door, watching the excitement on the street, listening to the gramophone in the shop, my mother didn't come to urge me. (Whether there is a mother in Old India is still a problem. If there is no mother, then Old India is too pitiful; if there is, how tall should the Indian mother be?) If you are sleepy, you can sleep as soon as you say, and you don’t have to wait. Looking after his younger sister, Xiaopo waited for his younger sister to go to bed every night, put up the mosquito net and covered the tapestry for her, and then he dared to go to sleep by himself.Otherwise, he was always afraid of red-eyed tigers, who would only bully little girls, and took his sister away; put the mosquito nets down, and the red-eyed tigers would not be able to get in.

"Fairy! When you grow up and open your shop tomorrow, ask me to watch the door for you. Look at how tall and beautiful I am!" "I'm a big girl, and girls don't run shops!" My sister said after thinking for a long time. "Aren't you going to change? Immortal! If you love to become a man, every morning after eating porridge, go to the garden and say to the coconut tree: Immortal is going to become a man! In this way, you will gradually become like your father." A tall man. But, fairy! Don’t you also become India; I am India, and if you become India again, who of us will be the gatekeeper for whom!” “Even if I become a man, I will not open a shop!” "What are you going to do? Immortal! Ah, are you driving an ox cart?" "Bah! You're just driving an ox cart!" Xianpo put his little finger against his dimples and thought for a long time: "I've grown up, I'm going, I'm going to be an official!" Xiaopo put his mouth next to his sister's ear, and murmured in a low voice: "Immortal! Being an official is the same as being in business. Didn't you hear what your father said that day: When he was in China, he spent a lot of money to buy An official. Later, he lost a lot of money, so he came to open a Chinese goods store.” "Ouch!" Xianpo didn't understand at all, pretending to understand what the second brother said. "Immortal! My father said that you can make more money in business than in being an official. Brother Gan Minger also runs a shop, and my mother also runs a shop. But I just like to watch the door for 'you'. Xian, look, how much I am The majestic India!" Xiaopo said, pulling his neck straight up, and immediately felt that his stature was a lot taller, or a little taller than the real India. Xianpo looked at the second elder brother, he was indeed a tall Indian, but for some reason he felt a little uncomfortable, and finally said: "Don't you like to open a shop?" Xiaopo knew: If she asks her sister to open a shop again, she will cry. "Okay, fairy! You don't have to open a shop, and I'm not an Indian anymore. I'll be a Malay policeman, okay?" The younger sister nodded. The Malay patrolman wears a long and narrow rattan card on his back. The two ends of the card protrude from the shoulders, and each end is more than a foot long.When he stood still, he looked like a cross.When he was facing south, the bullock carts, horse-drawn carts, trams, automobiles, and rickshaws going north and south all stopped suddenly with a click;He turned around suddenly, facing east, all the cars going east and west stopped, and all the cars going north and south ran past.This is how powerful and majestic, interesting!If Xiaopo became a patrolman, with the long rattan badge on his back, suddenly facing south, suddenly facing east, asking all kinds of cars to stop and run after him, how interesting and fun it would be!Or when you are happy, you can turn around in the middle of the road and let the cars on all sides collide with each other. Wouldn't it be more lively! The younger sister also agrees with this idea, but: "Second brother! If the cars collide in one place, wouldn't the people in the cars be damaged too?" Xiaopo has always respected his sister's opinion, besides, he was a soft-hearted boy, and he didn't mean to call the old man, old lady, and big girls in the car to smash their ears and noses.He said: "Fairy! I have an idea: when I want to turn around, I should yell first: I'm going to turn around! People in the car will jump off soon! If this is the case, won't it just hit the car and not hit people?" The younger sister thought it was really fun, and told him: "Second brother! When you become a policeman, I will definitely go to the street to watch the excitement." Xiaopo thanked his younger sister for being so kind, and told her: "But, Xian! You have to stand far away from me, and don't let a car hit you!" Xiaopo really loves his sister!
