Chapter 34 Chapter Nine (2)

Old man Du's two front teeth have fallen out early, so his singing is a bit leaky, but he sings very emotionally and devotedly, with his eyes half closed, he seems to have seen the "red checkered lips and white checkered teeth". Zhong Yuemin couldn't help laughing, "Grandpa Du, sing one more song, it's so interesting." Old man Du got excited and changed another song: A watch jingles, Brother Lover stands on the door of the slave's house, The mother asked the girl what the sound was, The northeast wind blew the door bolts rattling. Jingle in the second watch,

Lover brother entered the slave's embroidery room, The mother asked the girl what the sound was, Other people's dolls are fragrant in the morning. Jingle in the midnight watch, The lover went to the kang of the servant's house, The mother asked the girl what the sound was, Pile bone civet cat hit rice soup. Jingle at the fourth watch, The lover took off his slave's clothes, The mother asked the girl what the sound was, The handle of the foot makes the urine pot ring ... Zhong Yuemin said with a smile: "This is a song about cheating. It's so vivid. The girl loves her mother, and she speaks so fast. The lover is more practical. He just does his business and keeps silent. What's the matter? The woman will take care of it. Grandpa Du , why are there so many sour songs in Xintianyou?"

Old man Du lit a bag of cigarettes and muttered, "I'm bitter, I'm singing nonsense." Zhong Yuemin asked: "Why do you feel bitter?" "Life is boring, and singing makes me feel better." Zhong Yuemin pulled Hanwa who was throwing stones at the sheep and said, "Hanwa, what are you herding the sheep for?" Without even thinking about it, Han Wa blurted out, "Save money." "Why save money?" "Grow up and marry a wife." Zhong Yuemin smiled and said, "Hey, how old are you? Are you thinking about marrying a wife? I haven't married yet, silly boy, what is the purpose of marrying a wife?"

"Birth." "After giving birth?" "Save more money and marry a daughter-in-law for the baby." "The baby marries a daughter-in-law and has a baby, saves money, and has a baby, right?" Hanwa nodded. Zhong Yuemin sighed: "Then why the hell are you living? Save money to have a baby, and then save money to marry the baby to a daughter-in-law, give birth to the baby, and live forever. Grandpa Du, what do we farmers want in this life?" Old man Du looked at him strangely, as if Zhong Yuemin had asked nonsense, he asked back: "There is land to grow, enough food to eat, and a baby to continue the incense, what else do we need?"

Zhong Yuemin was also at a loss, yes, he couldn't tell what else you want.As a farmer, it seems that he doesn't need anything anymore, but as for himself, he doesn't seem to like this kind of life very much, so he asked again: "Grandpa Du, what are you most looking forward to right now?" Old man Du looked at Zhong Yuemin blankly. "I mean, if you could choose, what would you want most?" Old man Du said with certainty: "Eat white flour buns." "that's it?" "Then what else?" Zhong Yuemin was silent. Old man Du took out dry food from his pocket: "Silly baby, eat."

Zhong Yuemin poked his head and looked carefully, and saw that old man Du was holding several dark wild vegetable dumplings, and the grandfather and grandson were swallowing wild vegetable dumplings.Zhong Yuemin's eyes were red, and he turned his head away. Farmers in northern Shaanxi, suffering like this, felt a strong shock deep in his heart... Hanwa finished eating the wild vegetable dumpling in the blink of an eye, and he looked at his grandpa eagerly: "Grandpa, I'm not full." Old man Du helplessly patted Han on the head and said, "Silly boy, grandpa isn't full, but that's all we have."

Zhong Yuemin quickly took out the cornbread he brought and said, "Silly baby, you eat." Old man Du tried his best to block it with his hands: "Don't dare, your food is all good food, it's precious." Zhong Yuemin finally couldn't hold back his tears, he stuffed the cornbread into Hanwa's hand, turned his face away to wipe away his tears. Old man Du stuffed a pot full of tobacco leaves and handed it to Zhong Yuemin and asked, "Do you miss home?" "En." Zhong Yuemin choked up and couldn't speak. "It's good to sing a sour song. The people in the village feel bitter, and it all depends on singing a sour song."

Zhong Yuemin wiped away his tears and said, "Grandpa Du, let's sing one more." Old man Du's Xintianyou roared loudly into the clouds, and sang melodiously and sadly: Riding on a donkey, dogs bite their legs, You come here in the middle of the night, you hooker. Hug your loved ones and give them a kiss, The pimple in the stomach turned into water ... Zhou Xiaobai and Luo Yun each carried a bag full of food and walked five kilometers to the second company headquarters of the tank regiment. Instructor Wu Yunguo received them. Wu Yunguo has been in the army for more than ten years and has never dealt with female soldiers. In his impression, female soldiers in the army are like aunts, and there is no one to mess with.When he first became an instructor, he planned to find a nurse in the military hospital to be his wife. He thought that as a young officer, he was qualified to pursue them.Later he found out that this was not the case. The female soldiers in the hospital had eyes on top of their heads, and they didn't even bother to look at grassroots cadres like him.Usually in the company, Wu Yunguo still feels good. He is the political chief of a company after all, who dares not to take the instructor seriously.But one time when he went to the hospital to see a doctor, he spit casually in the corridor, and happened to be seen by a little female soldier. That girl was at most a hygienist, and she didn't even have the rank of a nurse, but she was really good at training people. Unambiguously, it was not enough to criticize Wu Yunguo head and face, and even ordered him to wipe off the sputum, which made a group of soldiers who saw the doctor laugh. At that time, Wu Yunguo wished he could find a crack in the ground, he knew At a loss, he had no choice but to bite the bullet and obey the order.Since then, Wu Yunguo has given up the idea of ​​marrying a nurse as his wife.

Instructor Wu Yunguo looked suspiciously at the two female soldiers and asked, "You want to see Yuan Jun? This is not allowed." Luo Yun said kindly: "I heard that he made a mistake and was locked up. We want to persuade him and help him correct his mistakes as soon as possible." Wu Yunguo asked, "What is your relationship with Yuan Jun?" Luo Yun said: "We are friends in Beijing." "Oh, so that's the girlfriend?" Zhou Xiaobai couldn't help it: "Instructor, what do you mean by that?" "I mean, if you are lesbians and you say you are friends with Yuan Jun, then you are girlfriends, but how can Yuan Jun have two girlfriends? Besides, you should know the discipline of the army. Soldiers are not allowed to have female friends during their service." friend."

Zhou Xiaobai and Luo Yun blushed with anger when they heard this. Zhou Xiaobai yelled: "Why are you so unprofessional as an instructor? The discipline of the army is that soldiers are not allowed to fall in love during their service." "It's the same thing, isn't it the same thing to have a girlfriend and fall in love?" Luo Yun patiently explained: "We are just ordinary friends, not the kind of girlfriend you mentioned." "What do you mean, there are many types of girlfriends? So which one do you and Yuan Jun belong to?" Zhou Xiaobai lost his temper: "Instructor, you are from the countryside, right? Have you ever been to school? I want to tell you that your education level is not suitable for a political worker, because you can't even distinguish the basic concepts. ."

Wu Yunguo also became angry: "You lesbian, why do you talk like this? It looks like you are all the children of high-ranking cadres, right? Otherwise, you wouldn't be so rude. Our comrades who enlisted in the army in the countryside are not as educated as your urban soldiers. Let me tell you, I I only went to elementary school, my family has three generations of farm laborers, my family is poor, and I have no chance to go to school to receive education..." Luo Yun immediately caught the loophole in his words and said: "Comrade instructor, at your age, you have grown up in the new society, right? Being a farm laborer is also a matter of the previous generation, so don't mess around. You peasants’ land, you have already turned yourself into master, where are you going to work as a farm laborer? Do you mean that you are still working as a farm laborer for the landlord under the leadership of the Communist Party in the new society? This is a serious political problem.” "That was not what I meant……" "That's what you mean, slandering the phenomenon that people exploit people in the new society. How can an instructor, even the secretary of the party branch, and a member of the Communist Party, say such things?" Wu Yunguo calmed down: "If you are such a mess, I have no choice but to refuse to talk to you. It seems that you are here to complain about Yuan Jun and tell you that soldiers in confinement are not allowed to meet guests. This is a rule. Please go back. Well, I will inform your unit of your performance just now, and your leaders will educate you." Zhou Xiaobai said disdainfully: "Where do you like to reflect and reflect, who are you frightening? An official as big as a sesame seed, if you give you a chicken feather, he will hold it up as an arrow." Luo Yun also said sharply: "Xiaobai, don't pay attention to him, look at his stinking virtue, he is so dirty, he is not much taller than Wu Dalang, and he wears a No. 2 military uniform like a coat. With a number one uniform you can fit him like a face pocket." Zhou Xiaobai stared at Wu Yunguo, and suddenly couldn't help laughing: "Luo Yun, your mouth is really damaged, don't make fun of his physical defects..." The two female soldiers walked away with a smile, Wu Yunguo was so angry that his lips trembled.
