Chapter 31 Tao Qi's Summer Diary-2

I said: "Grandpa, what do you think is a smart child?" Grandpa smiled and said, "'Cong' means that the ears can hear clearly, and 'Ming' means that the eyes can see clearly..." Speaking of which, Grandpa I stood up, pointed to the front and asked, "What color are the flowers and trees in front?" I said, "The pine trees, willows and grass are all green. The flowers are also red and yellow. I can't tell the color of the water." Here we come." Grandpa said: "Green is different from green. Look at how dark the green of the pine trees is. This green is called 'Cang'; the green of the grass is much lighter, similar to the curled canna leaves over there, and this green is called 'Bi'; The green is darker than grass and lighter than pine trees. This kind of green is called 'green'..." I laughed and said, "Grandpa, where did you learn so many words?" Grandpa also laughed and said: " I learned it from books. People who can draw and embroider know a lot about color. Just like your grandma, she used to embroider when she was young. There are dozens of colors of flower thread in her sewing box She can even be called by name. The mandarin duck and lotus pillowcase she embroidered in the past, the color matches beautifully!"

I remembered one thing and said, "No wonder last year when our small team sent a condolence bag to the volunteer army uncle, grandma said she could embroider for us. Lin Yi suggested asking grandma to embroider a dove of peace, and Fan Zumou drew it. Grandma Add some gray thread and blue thread to the white thread, and the embroidery looks whiter; with red eyes, it looks really good." Grandpa nodded and said: "No matter what kind of craft is knowledge-and, 'study' These two words contain 'learning' and 'asking'. Those who are willing to learn must not be afraid to ask questions." I laughed and said, "Grandpa, even our teacher Zhang praised your knowledge." Grandpa said happily : "Your teacher Zhang is a very good and lovely teacher." I smiled and said: "You are a very cute and knowledgeable grandfather!" Grandpa smiled and asked: "What about you?" I said: " I am a naughty, stupid, and uncut little girl!" Grandpa smiled and said, "No! You are a naughty, but cute little girl; not stupid at all, but a little girl who doesn't like to ask questions!" I don't Feeling embarrassed, he hugged Grandpa's arm and said softly, "I will ask more questions in the future, so you have to tell me everything!"

On the way home from the park, the five of us walked slowly.I kept silent, watched and listened carefully.I hadn't noticed before, how rich and beautiful our surroundings are! It's raining today.My sister went to school with Wang Ruifen early in the morning.Grandma and Aunt Chen were making dumplings in the upper room; Xiaoqiu and I were playing with her dolls. This little Japanese doll is wearing a dress with long sleeves of red flowers, a wide belt, and platform shoes with pinched toes; The mouth and big round eyes are really beautiful. We took turns holding her, touching her face, and brushing her hair.I said, "The Japanese are the same as us, they all have black hair." Xiao Qiu said, "That's not necessarily true. In the past, there was an orphanage on the mountain where we lived, and there were Japanese children with yellow hair in it. There are also black-skinned and curly-haired..." Aunt Chen said: "They are 'mixed-race children', children born to Japanese women and white or black soldiers of the American occupation army, so their hair is yellow. The skin is also black."

Turning around, I said to my grandma: "These children are pitiful. When I walked to the street, the children on the street clapped their hands and laughed at them, and shamed them. Those yellow-haired, blue-eyed, and dark-skinned curly-haired children saw that their hair and eyes were different from other Japanese children, so they wanted to darken their hair and whiten their skin; If they can’t get dark, their skin will be scratched, and they can’t get white, so they will cry..." I asked, "Where are their parents? Aunt Chen said: "Their father doesn't want them, and their mother can't afford them, so they all have to live in the orphanage..." As soon as I was about to speak, my grandma quickly asked: "I heard that the life of the Japanese people is very hard. Yeah? Aunt Chen said: "That's right, there are many unemployed people, and those who enjoy it are American military officers. After the victory of the war, the American imperialists 'military-occupied' Japan, occupying houses and fields as military bases everywhere. The streets are rampant, and if you see them so ferocious, it will really drive you to death.It is the Japanese people who are suffering. "Grandma sighed and said: "We Chinese finally got through it!"In the past, our streets were not full of those hateful Japanese soldiers and American soldiers... Thanks to Chairman Mao for his leadership, we drove those people away.Now we also have foreigners here, they are all our friends politely. "

When I was taking a nap this afternoon, all I could think about was the "half-race children" in Japan. I was really sad and angry for them.If I were a "mixed race child", when I grow up, I must defeat American imperialism! ! ! Xiaoqiu is really selfless, today she took out all her gadgets for everyone to play with.I feel so ashamed that I hid my glass chick.Before dinner, I also took out the little glass chicken and other things, and we had a good time. I took Xiaoqiu to see Zeng Xuejiao this afternoon, and it happened that both Lin Yi and Fan Zumou had come, and they were discussing in disorder.

As soon as she saw me coming in, Lin Yi said: "We were going to find you, and it would be better if you came. Isn't the night after tomorrow an eclipse? In our small team, there are only five of us left in the summer vacation.It's not team day anymore.Let's watch the lunar eclipse together the night after tomorrow and listen to the talk of the lunar eclipse, okay? ’ We all said: ‘Good! "Sun Jiaying said: "To listen to the talk of the lunar eclipse, you must have a radio..." I said, "I have a radio at home, so you can come to our house when the time comes." Li Chunsheng also came over with his little brother in his arms.I said, "Li Chunsheng, you can come and play too." Li Chunsheng shook his head and said, "I won't go, you girls are just dancing monkey rubber bands, wearing beads, and playing with little cloth people together. It's very boring." Fan Zumou rushed to say:

"Who said you are wearing beads and playing with little cloth people! We are talking about watching the lunar eclipse together, and Lin Yi and I will also go. This is originally our team's business, and it's okay if you don't go!" Li Chunsheng stared. Lin Yi hurriedly stopped him and said, "Go, go, everyone, let's see you the night after tomorrow." Turning around, he said to Fan Zumou, "Come on, let's go swimming in Shichahai." Fan Zumou frowned and said, "I I don’t have time today, and I have to go to the "Youth Home" to learn painting." Lin Yi said: "Didn't you promise to teach me swimming? I want to learn swimming well this summer..." Li Chunsheng stepped forward and said:

"I'll teach you, so what's the point? I'm not bad at swimming!" Fan Zumou said, "Okay, teach him. I'm not very good at swimming." After speaking, he pushed his bicycle and left. Seeing him go out, Sun Jiaying said, "Fan Zumou is selfish!" Zeng Xuejiao stood holding the door frame and said, "He is a good student. You can see that he is not the first in anything!" Li Chunsheng turned his head, Said: "He is selfish, so selfish! What is 'first' good for?If people ask him any questions, he will say no; when Mr. Zhang asks him in class, he will know it!If people ask him why he doesn't help others, he will stare and scold you, what is "too dependent"!

'I don't work hard'.Me, I'd rather have a big egg than ask this selfish man for advice! " Lin Yi said with a smile: "He is too selfish, and you don't work hard. We all have to help each other. Well, you can teach me to swim." Li Chunsheng was so happy that he let his little brother up the steps and said loudly "Mom, I'm going swimming with Lin Yi." Before Aunt Li agreed, he had already walked out with Lin Yi. We all went into Zeng Xuejiao's house.I asked Li Chunsheng how he ended up breaking the glass that day.Zeng Xuejiao said with a smile: "Didn't Li Chunsheng get beaten by Mrs. Li, but Mrs. Sun won't allow compensation for that piece of glass, so it's over." Li Chunsheng filed a lawsuit. Teacher Zhang suggested that Aunt Li not give Li Chunsheng the money for renting the villain books for three weeks, and give the money to my mother as compensation. Later, Teacher Zhang went into the house and talked with Aunt Li for a long time, and Aunt Li agreed. I won’t beat Li Chunsheng anymore. Teacher Zhang also said that Li Chunsheng likes to read books, and she can take him to the children’s library to borrow them. Since that day, Li Chunsheng has gone to the library twice.”

We played together for a while, and Xiaoqiu became acquainted with them after a while.Sun Jiaying told Xiaoqiu about Huang Jiguang's comic strips, and Xiaoqiu's eyes widened when he heard it.She asked, "Why isn't Huang Jiguang afraid of death? When I was in Japan, I was terrified when I saw those American soldiers boarding ships and sailing to North Korea. They cried, and the people who sent them also cried. I heard that some American soldiers were so frightened that they committed suicide! The three of us rushed to reply, "That's natural. The Americans are fighting in other people's homes. They are fighting a war of aggression against others."Which of their people is willing to go to North Korea, thousands of miles away, to serve as cannon fodder for their leaders?The Korean People's Army and the Chinese People's Volunteers are different.

We are fighting a war of defending our home and defending our country. We block the enemy's attack at the door of our house, so how can we be afraid of death? Xiaoqiu nodded and said, "That's right!" " We got back from playing very late. This morning, grandpa proposed to go to Beihai Park tonight, go boating, watch the moon, and have a picnic.We all applaud, grandpa really knows how to play! The day goes by so slowly!Grandma and Aunt Chen are busy making food.My sister is busy packing food.I taught Xiaoqiu how to sing. Just after six o'clock in the afternoon, Aunt Chen, my sister, Xiaoqiu and I arrived in Beihai first. We finally got two boats, I followed Aunt Chen, my sister took Xiaoqiu, and they rowed away.The water is so hot and the sun is shining!Aunt Chen is holding a small umbrella, Xiao Qiu is wearing a straw hat, and my sister is also carrying a big cattail fan.Seeing that I was sweating from the sun, she handed me the fan.I do not want.It doesn't matter if I sunbathe for a while, she will have a headache if she sunbathes too much. We didn't dare to go far, we just hovered beside Yilan Hall.Sure enough, after a while, grandpa and grandma came with picnic baskets.Grandpa got on our boat.Grandma boarded her sister's boat, and Xiaoqiu saw grandpa coming, so she wanted to come to our side, so Aunt Chen switched with her. Xiaoqiu and I sat side by side in the middle of the boat.Grandpa sat in the stern and asked Xiaoqiu with a smile: "Do you think Beihai is beautiful?" Xiaoqiu said with a smile, "beautiful!" The sister pointed at the boat over there and said, "Look at the tall white pagoda on the island, which was built more than three hundred years ago." The 'Tibetan-style' pagoda..." The two of us rushed to ask: "What is the 'Tibetan-style'?" My sister said: "Isn't China a multi-ethnic country? We have Han, Hui, Mongolian, Manchu...and many other ethnic groups. Each ethnic group has its own unique style of building houses, and the towers built by Tibetan compatriots are like this..." I said: "Our brother ethnic groups also have their own What about the clothes. During the May Day parade, their team is the most beautiful, colorful. The women also wear strings of ding-ding-dang-dang jewelry." My sister said: "Their singing is beautiful, and their dancing is beautiful!" I said to Xiaoqiu: "The "Tibetan Dance Music" I taught you this morning is a song that Tibetan compatriots sing when they dance. And that song "Singing Erlang Mountain" was sung by the Uncle of the People's Liberation Army when they were building the road to Tibet." Xiaoqiu said, "Second Sister, when the road is built, let's go to Tibet together, okay?" I asked: "What are you going to do? Go play?" Xiaoqiu thought for a while and said, "No, go and serve the Tibetan compatriots!" She made great progress! The sun went down, and the water was glowing red.Before my mother came, I stood up and looked around.Sure enough, from the promenade over there, among many people, I saw my mother walking quickly.I was so happy that I yelled "Mom", and Xiaoqiu followed me and rowed the boat quickly.When my mother got on the boat, she smiled and said to me: "Why are you yelling so loudly? Everyone is yelling like you, how chaotic the North Sea is!" Grandma was busy dividing plates and food for us.We wiped our hands with wet towels and started eating.Xiaoqiu stood up suddenly, pointed to the east and said, "Second sister, look quickly!" I looked back, and it turned out that the moon was coming up, shining like a big golden mirror, hanging on the top of the tree.Everyone said: "What a moon!" There was a cool breeze on the water.The shadows of people and boats were all blurred, and in the blurred shadows I heard people singing on many boats. Mother sat silently on the bow, holding a teacup in her hand, as if thinking about something. I went over to her and asked her softly, "Mom, are you tired?" My mother woke up startled, and said with a smile, "I'm not tired at all. I remembered that last time your father wrote about the Anshan factory area. The flames of the steelworks were red for half the sky. Like tonight, it must be brighter on their side, with the moon, fire, and lights..." At this time Xiaoqiu also came over and said: " Second sister, what do you think Beihai looks like now? Just like the palaces where princesses and princes live in the movies I watched in Japan, it is bright and beautiful.” Mom said with a smile: “Beihai was originally a palace, seven or eight hundred It has always been a place for princesses and princes to play, and now it belongs to our people." The lights around the water are getting denser and denser.The moon is about to rise in the middle of the sky.The "Tibetan-style" white pagoda looks like a pile of snow under the moonlight, which is very beautiful. Grandma said it was getting late and it was time to go back.Everyone was busy packing up towels, cups and plates.Xiaoqiu picked up a plate of fruit peels and was about to pour them into the water.I quickly stopped her, wrapped the peel in paper and put it in the basket.I told Xiaoqiu that if everyone threw fruit peels into the water, Beihai would soon become a dirty pool. We got home at half past nine.We had so much fun today! This morning, before we got up, we heard someone knocking on the door and shouting, "Tao Qi, little rascal!" It was Li Chunsheng's voice.My sister hurriedly got up and went out to open the door. After a while, I heard Li Chunsheng say in the yard: "My mother was sick, and she vomited continuously in the middle of the night last night. Aunt Sun asked Aunt Tao to go and have a look." Before my sister had time to speak , my mother said in the upper room: "You go back first, I'll come right away." When I got up, my mother had already walked outside the door with the small medicine box. After breakfast, Wang Ruifen brought Wang Ruixuan here, saying that he came to see Xiaoqiu.Wang Ruixuan said: "You have a little cousin, so you won't play with me." I said: "Nothing!" We played with Xiaoqiu's Japanese doll together. Mom came back, and my sister was busy bringing breakfast to my mother.Grandma asked: "What's wrong with Mrs. Li?" Mom said: "It's nothing, I'm just tired and hot again; I got an injection and I'm much better now." Grandma said, "Sister Li just has a lot of children. If your childcare center is established, she will be able to go to the quilt factory by herself as soon as she sends the children to the station, with less burden and more wages. ’ Mom said, ‘The nursery is just the house is too difficult.We have even trained the childcare workers, and it took half a year just to find a house. When I heard this, I asked Ruixuan: "Isn't the small courtyard to the west of your house empty?"It is suitable for renting to a nursery station. Ruixuan said: "Aunt Sun and the others have talked to my mother."Mom hasn't agreed yet..." Wang Ruifen said: "My mother is okay. She is afraid of the noise and the children destroying the house. She just said, 'I don't wait for the two dollars to be used.' My father sneered and said, 'It is said that this childcare center is a mutual aid organization on the street. , to help working women. I am not a working people, and I have no obligation to help each other.' He said and moved all the ancestral tablets to that house, and confessed. He said to my mother: 'Next time they If you ask again, you can say that our house has been used for ancestors. Anyway, the people's government can't prohibit people from offering sacrifices to ancestors. 'Look at my father...' Wang Ruifen said here, with a very sad look on his face. My mother said: "You have to persuade him slowly and carefully..." Wang Ruifen said: "I always tell my father patiently that we are all supported by the working class, but my father still doesn't listen. It's all because of our persuasiveness. It’s not enough, we have to keep working hard.” They played until lunch time and left.Wang Ruifen and her sister had their group gathering at night, so I invited Wang Ruixuan to watch the lunar eclipse with us. After six o'clock in the afternoon, Lin Yi and Fan Zumou came.Then Sun Jiaying and Li Chunsheng came along with Zeng Xuejiao.We are all sitting in the yard.Wang Ruixuan came last.Grandma brought out the sour plum soup she made, and invited everyone to drink it. Li Chunsheng couldn't sit still, and he didn't care about Fan Zumou and Wang Ruixuan, so he just went in and out of these few rooms, touched this, touched that, and rushed to move the radio. It turned out that Lin Yi and I moved it out and put it on the windowsill.Li Chunsheng turned on the button of the radio from time to time, and said, "Have you heard the eclipse talk?" Stand up and clap your hands and say: "Everyone be quiet! I will explain the truth of lunar eclipse..." At this time, a steady and clear voice came out from the radio: "Central People's Broadcasting Station, now report the news... Kaesong news... The Korean armistice agreement has been completely reached by the negotiating parties..." Everyone was stunned for a while, and suddenly came to their senses when they heard this, and they clapped their hands loudly and cheered loudly, "The Korean armistice!" Grandpa, grandma and Aunt Chen, They all ran out of the house excitedly. Grandma laughed and said, "It's done! It's done! The Korean people can stop bleeding and sacrifice." Aunt Chen said: "Mothers in North Korea, you can sleep well at night!" We all laughed and shouted together.In the fuss, Li Chunsheng picked up his grandfather's cane again, carried it on his shoulder, and started walking, singing: "Arrogance and pride, cross the Yalu River..." Xiao Qiu also hurried to pick up her little umbrella, and followed Run behind Li Chunsheng.In the chaos, my sister and Wang Ruifen came in from the outside excitedly, and we immediately surrounded them, shouting "the Korean armistice" and "Uncle Volunteer Army is coming back", my sister also smiled and said: "This is really good news! But we still have to be vigilant, although the American devils have suffered a great defeat and are forced to stop the war, they will never stop here, and we must not relax for a moment!" Wang Ruifen also said: "I think Uncle Volunteer Army also They won’t come back immediately, North Korea was destroyed so badly by the war of aggression, the uncles of the Volunteer Army must help the Korean people to rebuild their motherland.” We were listening to our sisters talking raptly, when we looked back, it turned out that the sun had already set.The sky turned from dark red to dark blue.The stars all over the sky came out, so many, so big, so bright!After a while, the moon slowly rose up from the east roof like a bright red round mirror covered with a thin black veil.The moon is already in total eclipse! Slowly, slowly, on one side of the moon, a curved light and shadow appeared, and the light and shadow became bigger and bigger. After an hour, the black shadow completely disappeared.The moon shines all over the earth, and the stars are invisible! It was already ten o'clock when the students left. Today Xiaoqiu is very bad, because Aunt Chen wants to go to the theater with her grandparents at night, so she has been moaning all day, and she must go with her.No matter how much I persuade her, she won't listen! Xiaoqiu makes me very angry sometimes, she is disobedient and naughty.She often pushes me, hits me, and tickles me unexpectedly.She also likes to act like a baby, asking others to button up clothes, tie belts when wearing shoes, and peel fruit when eating.My sister never lets me do it for her.My sister said: "She won't do anything she's been used to since she was a child. Don't get used to her anymore!"Slowly Xiaoqiu got skinned with me.But she never dared to tease her sister, her sister always reasoned with her, so she often said: "Why doesn't she bully me? You just follow her too much at ordinary times." Can't get up! When my mother came back in the evening, Xiao Qiu was still in trouble with Aunt Chen. She said: "When I was in Japan, I would go out anytime late! There are children in Japanese cinemas and theaters, who are carried in their hands and on their backs." What's more, they don't sleep until midnight!" Aunt Chen said: "Stop making trouble, let's take you there, you are not allowed to make noise." Mom came over and pulled Xiaoqiu aside, smiled and said to her: "Xiaoqiu, good boy, we are not letting you It’s too late to listen to the theater. “Get up early and go to bed early to be healthy.” You see, the second sister is older than you, so she doesn’t go. You know that children who are shorter than you by three feet are not allowed to enter the theater during the day. , the cinema." Xiaoqiu lowered her head and pouted her lips and said, "Why don't our Chinese adults allow children to watch plays and movies?" My mother smiled and said, "Our Chinese adults always take care of children's bodies everywhere. Because When the children grow up, they will take over from our adults and do many great things to let everyone live a better and happier life. Therefore, we must protect you well so that you can grow strong and strong Yes, you will be able to do more and more important work than us in the future. Don’t you often say that when you grow up, you will do a lot of work for all of us? Then tonight, you will sleep at home obediently, and wait for the day we have In time, I will definitely take you to see a Beijing opera performed by young actors, it’s so good!” Xiaoqiu lowered her head and thought for a while, then came over with a smile and took my hand, saying, “Second sister, let’s go take a bath.” She And happily turned around and waved to grandpa, grandma and aunt Chen: "Goodbye!" The happiest is my sister, she was very nervous!When Xiaoqiu was arguing to go, she said to her grandma: "Just leave, let us persuade her slowly." When she saw Aunt Chen wavering, she wanted to persuade Aunt Chen not to agree.When my mother came back, Xiaoqiu was convinced by a piece of reasoning, and she was relieved. She looked at her mother with an admiring look, and then looked back at me and smiled.I know what she means, she's saying, "We all have to learn from Mom!" This morning, I went to make up lessons for Zeng Xuejiao. After taking a nap, the sky is a little cloudy.We are all playing in the upper house.My elder sister reads in the house by herself; grandma calls her, but she only agrees, but never comes out. Grandma said to Aunt Chen: "Dabao has been a quiet child since he was a child..." Xiaoqiu immediately asked, "Who is Dabao?" Grandma said, "Dabao is your eldest sister." Follow me, when his parents were studying. I also came up with the scientific name, 'Tao Zhen', 'Zhen' from Zhen Bao.Later, her grandfather thought that "Zhen" and "Bao" were too vulgar, so he changed it to the real and fake "true". " Xiaoqiu asked: "Who named the second sister?" Grandma said, "It was also me. After she was born, her parents went to the liberated area. Your second sister has been naughty since she was a child, and she will giggle in three months." , winking at people. I say just call her 'naughty' Bar!Her grandfather named her 'Tao Qi', a strange 'Qi'..." Xiao Qiu came over with a smile and pinched my face, calling: "Naughty, naughty! I pushed her away and asked Aunt Chen: "Who came up with Xiaoqiu's name?" Aunt Chen said: "It was her father who started it, because she was born on the day of Liqiu." I asked: "Where is Xiaoqiu's father?" Before Aunt Chen could answer, Xiaoqiu said, "Dad died just a few days after I was born, and I have never seen my father." "Aunt Chen lowered her head sadly, and I didn't know what to say. Grandma said: "I heard Xiaoqi's mother say something about you. Xiaoqiu's father died so badly! You are so young..." Aunt Chen sighed and said: "That was when Japan launched a war of aggression against China, and we were all students. Xiaoqiu’s father was arrested by the Japanese gendarmerie because he was with many patriotic Chinese students in Japan and launched a movement against the war of aggression. He was tortured by the Japanese Gendarmerie, and then..." Aunt Chen's eyes were red when she said this He took out his handkerchief to blow his nose. Xiaoqiu hurried over and stood next to Aunt Chen, pushing her gently. Grandma's eye circles were also red, and she said, "Why are Japanese people so cruel..." Aunt Chen said: "That's not true, ordinary Japanese people are also opposed to the war. The son of our landlord's old lady is a primary school teacher. He was also arrested by the gendarmerie because of his opposition to the war. The old lady helped me collect the children. When I was with Qiu's father, she cried more painfully than me, she said: 'I am suffering more than you, I can't even find my son's body...'" Aunt Chen cried as she spoke.No wonder I heard Aunt Chen crying the night she first arrived. It turned out that she had such a painful experience! Now that the hateful Japanese imperialism has just been overthrown, and U.S. imperialism is about to revive it, we must resolutely oppose U.S. imperialism's arming of Japan! ! ! It was a dreary day, but fortunately it rained in the afternoon. At noon today, my sister went to buy four movie tickets.Grandma invited us to watch "Longxugou".Xiaoqiu was so happy that she clapped her hands and jumped! After lunch, we only lay down for half an hour before Grandma, Aunt Chen, Xiaoqiu and I set off. Grandma is watching "Longxugou" for the second time, and she cried like something for the first time, but she cries and loves to watch it!This time she also said to Aunt Chen: "Take an extra handkerchief, this story is terrible!" I really hope that she will stop crying in the movie theater! Grandma loves to shed tears, she sheds tears when things are "miserable", and she also shed tears when things are "happy". This movie theater is small and there are not too many people.We arrived early—Grandma was always “early” when she went out. (My sister often said that if all the people attending the meeting looked like grandmas, I wonder how much time would be saved.) The first half of the story of "Longxugou" is really miserable!When it rained heavily, Uncle Zhao, who was poor and sick, had water running down his house.The honest lunatic Cheng was beaten so badly by the bully's dog legs that his mouth was bleeding.When the cute Er Niuzi, who knew how to help her mother and was liked by everyone in the yard, fell into the ditch and drowned, her mother and neighbors in the movie burst into tears, and the moviegoers couldn’t help it I was in tears, and some old ladies twitched louder than grandma!I peeped to see that Aunt Chen was also wiping her tears with a handkerchief.Xiaoqiu wiped it with the back of her hand.I kept holding back and didn't move, letting the tears stream down my face.Suddenly the scene changed, and a big five-star red flag fluttered up.Everyone was very happy and clapped their hands vigorously.While everyone was clapping their hands, I quickly took out the handkerchief and wiped my face dry. After watching the movie, the sun outside the door is so bright and the weather is so hot!I saw that Xiaoqiu's eyes were still red, so I went to put my arms around her and persuaded her, "You know, right? This was all before liberation. Didn't Longxugou be repaired later, and people's lives were better? We I will never have that kind of hardship again.” Xiaoqiu nodded and said, "But Er Niuzi is dead, she hasn't seen any good things!" I also felt very uncomfortable. We walked to the entrance of the alley and met Wang Ruixuan, who insisted on taking us to her house to play.I promised her to go with Xiaoqiu tomorrow. This morning, after doing my summer homework, I took Xiaoqiu to Wang's house to play.Aunt Chen also decorated Xiaoqiu with some extra care. When we arrived at her house, Ruixuan took us to her room.Xiaoqiu saw seven or eight beautiful dolls, big and small, on the upper shelf of her bookshelf, and she was so happy that she reached out to grab them.Ruixuan hurriedly said: "Don't move! Which one do you want, I'll take it down for you to see." Xiaoqiu said, "I want the bigger one." Ruixuan said, "I'll show you. If you hug her too tightly, her clothes will break..." At this time Ruifen also came in, and when she heard it, she said, "It's fun for everyone to play with, and a doll is everyone's treasure if you hold it and hold it." She took the big doll down and handed it To Xiaoqiu.Xiaoqiu was so happy that she gently held the doll on her arm and looked at her face carefully. Ruifen asked me again: "Is your sister at home?" I said: "At home, you can go and play with her." Ruixuan said: "Sister, then you can tell the Tao family, I invite Tao Qi and Xiao Qiu is eating at our house." I was about to decline, but seeing Xiao Qiu seemed willing, I said to Ruifen: "Then you can eat our share at our house." Ruixuan took out her storybooks and comics again.As we were watching, Ruixuan's mother came in, followed by a nanny, carrying a plate of sliced ​​watermelons.Ruixuan's mother had drawn eyebrows, a snow-white face, and bright red lips. (Summer looks very hot!) While letting us eat watermelon, she pulled Xiaoqiu, looked her up and down, and said, "What beautiful clothes, did you buy them in Japan? Japanese girls' clothes look good. " Xiaoqiu said: "No, my mother made it herself." Ruixuan's mother said to me again: "When your mother is free, please ask her to come over and show me, my stomach is still not good .Your mother didn’t give me medicine last time, she just told me to exercise more..." Ruixuan said, "Didn't my sister tell you to get up early and do radio gymnastics with us?" Her mother turned her head and said: "Your sister is just messing around! I'm not a student, so I'm doing radio gymnastics!" I said: "My mother is very busy, and sometimes she doesn't come back at night. If you feel bad, you might as well go to the hospital first." Her mother said, "I don't bother to go to the hospital. There are too many people, the smell is bad, and I have to wait." It’s too much work, if you don’t get sick, wait until you get sick. Tell your mother that it’s not too late to come on Sunday... Also, last time I asked someone to send that piece of clothing to your mother, why did she return it? Maybe it's too polite..." Because I didn't know about it, I didn't say anything. Her mother went out while talking. While eating, we saw Ruixuan's father.He was a big fat man, wearing a white silk trousers jacket and a ring on his hand.The dining table was full of dishes, and everyone ate with their heads down. No one spoke, only the whirring of the big electric fan above their heads.I wanted to add more rice after I finished eating, but a nanny came over and wanted to take my bowl and add more rice for me.I felt uncomfortable and embarrassed, so I said I was full and stopped eating. After the meal, I took Xiaoqiu to leave.On the way, I said, "I don't really like going to Ruixuan's house. Ruixuan has nothing to do with it, but the 'air' in her house makes people feel uncomfortable. Her mother is very delicate, and I always think I'm sick, so I always want to tease my mother." Go to see a doctor for her! You know how busy my mother is. And I can’t stand her father like that..." Xiaoqiu said: "Ruixuan is not good either! She is very selfish. She doesn’t let people hug her baby and eats watermelon It’s also the one who picks the biggest piece by himself, and doesn’t let the guests in at all!” I think this is what her mother is used to.When we were eating, didn't she just pick up good fish and meat and send them to Ruixuan's bowl! Back home, my sister and Ruifen were washing dishes in the kitchen.In the upper room, a young guest was talking with others.Aunt Chen said that he was Xiaoqiu's uncle who taught at a university in the western suburbs, and he came to pick them up to live in the western suburbs for a few days in August.Xiaoqiu's uncle was very happy to see Xiaoqiu, and he took Xiaoqiu to ask questions.He also said that the western suburbs are very fun, there is Longevity Hill, the western suburbs park and so on.When they went outside the city, he took Xiao Qiutian to play.He and Aunt Chen made an appointment to pick them up on the morning of August 9th. Grandpa said to Aunt Chen this morning: "Xiaoqiu's uncle took you to the scenic spots in the western suburbs, but in Beijing you must also visit the Temple of Heaven, because the Temple of Heaven is the greatest and most beautiful building in Beijing." At four o'clock in the afternoon, Grandpa and Aunt Chen took me and Xiaoqiu to the Temple of Heaven. The Temple of Heaven is so big!There are countless green cypress trees lined up beside the road and in the square, with extremely thick trunks.Grandpa said that the Temple of Heaven and these ancient cypresses are more than 500 years old, and they are more than 40 times older than me. We walked into the west gate, walked up the tall Baishi Avenue, and went north until we reached the bottom of the hall of prayer for good harvest.Looking up, this Hall of Prayer for Good Harvests is really majestic and beautiful!It is round, with three layers of dark blue glazed tile roofs, and five-color paintings in the middle. We climbed the steps, entered the temple, and looked up to see the patterns of clouds drawn in every square frame on the roof.Grandpa said: "The Hall of Prayer for Good Harvests is the place where the former feudal emperors came to pray for a good harvest. This square frame is called 'Caijing', and the clouds painted in different seasons and climates are painted inside, so none of them are the same." We left the Hall of Prayer for Good Harvests and headed south.When we arrived in front of a circular wall, grandpa said: "This is the 'Echo Wall'. You go and stand on both sides, ask and answer gently, and you can hear each other." on the wall. I heard Xiaoqiu say softly: "Second Sister, where are you?" I smiled and said, "I'm here..." We were talking when we saw a large group of people coming from behind.Men in suits.The woman is covered with an extremely beautiful veil, many dazzling bracelets on her arms, red dots on her forehead, and big earrings on her ears.Let's just stand aside and let them listen too.陈姨低声说:“这是印度朋友,到北京来玩的。” 我们又走上“圜丘”,爷爷说这是从前帝王祭天的地方。 这是一个三层汉白玉砌成的圆的平坛,每层也都有白石的栏杆。顶上一层台面,当中是一块整的圆石板。爷爷叫我们站在正中间,又叫我们喊一句话。我们两个人就并排朝南站着,齐声喊:“毛主席万岁!”就听见四面八方有隆隆的回声:“毛主席万岁!”这时印度朋友们正走到台下,就抬头来看。有两个年轻的女人便走上来,摸摸我们的头问:“你好?”我们笑着说:“好,你好?”那两位印度女人便也笑着喊:“和平万岁!” 我们拉着她们的手也跟着她们喊。我又喊:“印度人民万岁!” 底下一大群印度朋友都笑着向我们拍手,他们又拥上前来,和我们站在一起,我们一同喊:“和平万岁!”“印度人民万岁!” “毛主席万岁!”在我们笑着喊着的时候,有一位印度朋友给我们照了像。照完了像,他们就走了。我们彼此笑着挥手说了“再见”。 陈姨望着她们的后影说:“印度女人的衣服多好看多凉快呀,走起路来飘飘扬扬的。” 小秋问:“印度国在哪里呀?离我们远不远?”爷爷说:“印度在我们的西南边,和我们隔着一座大山呢,可是我们两国在两千年以前就有交往了。上唐僧取经的'西天',就是现在的印度。”小秋想了一想,说:“那么在有天坛的一千五百年前,我们和印度人就是朋友了。”爷爷笑着说:“对!” 圜丘上太阳很大,我们就到下面茶桌上去坐了一会儿,喝了橘子水。爷爷要了一壶茶,他说凉水喝了不解渴。 我们坐到黄昏才回来。今天我们真快乐。我们看了天坛,又和印度的朋友们一块照了像,我想他们会把我们的像片带回印度去的! 今天是“八一”建军节。一早起来,姐姐就对我和小秋讲建军节的故事,还把她给她们黑板报写的稿子给我看,上面说:“在一九二七年的春天,在祖国革命势力发展得十分强大的时候,伪装革命的蒋介石,转过头来向革命者进攻。那年的四月十二日,蒋匪帮在上海屠杀了大批的共产党员、革命的工农和学生,使革命战争受了挫折。为了挽救革命,同年的八月一日,朱德、周恩来、贺龙和其他的同志在江西南昌,率领革命军三万多人,武装起义。 不久这支军队就在井冈山和毛主席领导的革命军会合,成立了中国工农红军第四军。从那时起,中国人民就有了自己的武装。就是这支越来越强大的人民解放军,二十六年来,艰苦的斗争,终于把蒋匪和帝国主义势力赶走,解放了我们,使我们今天能过这样和平快乐的日子。我们应该感谢他们,热爱他们,向他们学习'爱祖国'、'爱人民'和克服困难的勇敢顽强的精神,为建设社会主义社会而献出自己的一切力量。 " 我正在抄这段稿子——因为我觉得姐姐写得很好——,有姐姐的几个同学来了,大家都兴高采烈地,说学校里分了入场券,晚上到劳动人民文化宫去参加中国人民解放军建军纪念日的跳舞,还看些文艺节目,赴会的有解放军叔叔、工人和学生,可热闹啦! 陈姨问:“你们都打扮了去呀?”姐姐说:“不一定,就穿平常的短衫长裤也可以。” 陈姨不赞成,说:“过节高兴嘛,为什么穿得灰耗子似的!”说着就进屋去打开箱子,拿出几条裙子和花衬衣来,说:“这都是我自己从前穿的,颜色都不太花,你们不嫌旧,就挑去穿吧。”姐姐的同学就围上来,一面拿起看,一面夸奖。陈姨很高兴说:“这都是我自己裁做的。来,我替你们分配吧。脸色好的人,就可以穿蓝色绿色的;脸色白的人,就穿红一点的。发结最好和衣裙一样的颜色,脚上穿白鞋白袜就很好看。”于是大家纷纷试穿起来,姐姐的脸色最白,陈姨就给她穿上红底小白花的衣裙,两条辫子上打个大红结。奶奶过来看了称赞说:“你看大宝穿上颜色衣服多么好看。平常我劝她穿得花梢一点,她总不听!”我说:“到了将来,大家都穿得花花绿绿的时候,你就肯穿了吧?”姐姐一面换衣服一面笑说:“到了大家都穿的时候,就不显得别扭了。” 下午,爷爷从外面回来,满面笑容地叫小秋和我到屋里去,我们知道一定有什么好事,就争着给他倒茶打扇。爷爷说:“你妈妈不是答应过请小秋听戏吗?明天戏曲学校的戏可好啦,我已经买好了票了,连你妈妈都去。”这时大家都进来了。爷爷对陈姨说:“戏曲学校的戏最好看。明天的戏码上有《小放牛》和《闹天宫》,小秋和小奇一定爱看的。”回头又对我说:“这些小演员里面,还有许多少先队员呢!” 还没有听戏呢,我们已经高兴得跳起来了!我们正围着爷爷听讲《小放牛》和《闹天宫》的故事,看见王瑞芬来了,脸上很难过的样子。姐姐赶紧出去,拉她到西屋里去。过了半天,姐姐打扮好,和王瑞芬一块说笑着出来,王瑞芬好像又高兴了。 夜里姐姐回来的时候,我们已经躺在床上了。 吃早饭的时候,姐姐告诉我们昨天晚上的联欢会热闹极了,她们跳了集体舞,文艺表演的节目也不错。我就问:“王瑞芬为什么不高兴了?”姐姐说:“就是因为她父亲又和她别扭了!从前她给志愿军写信,她父亲就不高兴。昨晚大家都去联欢,她父亲也不让她去,说什么'我不能让我的女儿去跟大兵跳舞'。王瑞芬就急了,说:'人民解放军是人民的救星,和从前国民党的匪军,怎么能比?'后来她母亲也帮她说,说同学们都去,也不是她一个人。她父亲才没说什么。”妈妈就说:“她母亲比她父亲好一些;上次孙大娘为托儿站房子的事情,又去找她帮忙,她口气很活,说是等她父亲到天津去以后再说。”我说:“那就是王瑞芬对她母亲动员过了!对了,还有一件事,她母亲还说要请您去给她看病,可是王瑞萱说她母亲没有病。”妈妈说:“我今天没事,去和她谈谈也好。” 妈妈吃过早饭就到王家去了。 下午,爷爷、妈妈、陈姨、我和小秋去看戏。因为爷爷只买到五张票,奶奶说她怕热,姐姐要在家陪奶奶,结果我们五个人去了。
