Rebirth 1984 Wife and children are on the hot bed

Snowflakes were falling and a cold wind blew all night.

Early the next morning.

After breakfast, Xu Dahai walked around his mother's yard and talked with his sister Xu Fang and brother-in-law Jiang Ning.

After coming back, they drove the tractor, carrying Wang Xiuxiu and Xiao Tingzi to Longxing Township.

Da da da ~ da da da ~

The tractor's chimney emitted bursts of black smoke, and the wheels turned, compacting the thick snow, leaving clear pattern marks.

The snow is really heavy. If it were a bicycle, I might not be able to ride it.

But the tractor is powerful and powerful!A smooth journey!

Inside the carriage.

Wang Xiuxiu bent over, lowered her head, and protected Xiao Tingzi under her body.

The two of them were covered with a quilt and leaning against the side of the car to block the wind. The cold wind blew past their backs.

"Xiao Tingzi! Are you cold!?"

The tractor made so much noise that Wang Xiuxiu could only shout, otherwise she couldn't hear clearly.

"Mom, I'm not cold!"

Xiao Tingzi nestled in Wang Xiuxiu's arms, watching the snow recede and the village gradually disappear.

When I was approaching Longxing Township, I met an old man driving an ox cart slowly. The snow was knee deep, and the old cow was spitting out streams of white air from its nose, struggling to pull the cart.

The old man drove the bullock cart ahead.

There were bags of food blocking the car, so Xu Dahai didn't recognize who it was.

As a result, a little black dog suddenly jumped out from a corner of the oxcart, its tail wagging like a hot wheel, its ears puckered, and it shouted excitedly at Xu Dahai.

"Wang Wang Wang ~"

"Hey! This is Mr. Liu's little black boy!"

Xu Dahai slowed down the speed of the tractor and drove side by side. When he turned around, he saw that it was indeed Mr. Liu.

"Master Liu! What's going on here!?"

"Ah, it's Xiaohai. I can't finish the food at home, so I'll transport it here and sell it."

Mr. Liu was wearing a thick gray cotton jacket, cotton trousers, and a big old hat that was almost flying off the sides. He was hunched over and holding a big whip in his arms.

The smile he smiled was hearty.

"Can't we sell it in our Daquan Township? Why is it transported so far?"

"The prices here are higher."

After a few words, Xu Dahai said that he would help him haul food. Mr. Liu refused repeatedly, saying that he would be there soon and there was no need to bother.

da da da~

The tires kicked up waves of snow, and Xu Dahai drove the tractor and left quickly.

……

It was only a little after 8 o'clock in the morning when we arrived at my father-in-law's house.

The father-in-law and mother-in-law were eating, oh, when Xu Dahai saw the rice - big pancakes, rice porridge, maybe stewed vermicelli with pickled cabbage and pork that had been eaten several times, the color was all gray.

There are also pickled Jerusalem artichokes, salted beans, and salted duck eggs.

The old couple were very happy to see their daughter, son-in-law and granddaughter back.

Just halfway through the meal, the mother-in-law left the table in a hurry and gave the little girl all kinds of delicious food - stove fruits, trough cakes, cans, candy balls, apples, frozen pears, frozen persimmons, and pine nuts. , hazelnuts, dried sweet potatoes, rock sugar...

There are so many things that they almost fill up the whole kang.

Xu Dahai and Wang Xiuxiu quickly stopped him and said stop it, they couldn't eat that much.

The mother-in-law was indeed very happy, and the smile on her face never disappeared.

He also enthusiastically asked Xu Dahai to try the salted duck eggs - they were said to be double yolk eggs laid by the ducks in his brother-in-law's yard. They were collected bit by bit and pickled. They were very fragrant.

Xu Dahai couldn't bear the other party's enthusiasm, so he took a little bit and put it in his mouth.

Hey!

So salty!Almost dead!

"Is it delicious? Isn't it delicious?" The mother-in-law looked forward to it.

"Hmm, it does smell good." Xu Dahai was thinking, would it be inappropriate to drink water now?

"Do you still want to eat? Can I give you another chopstick?"

"No, I don't want it."

Instantly everyone else started laughing.

After eating, I watched TV and chatted about home life. Time flowed slowly, leisurely, comfortable and enjoyable.

After a while, the eldest brother-in-law and the second brother-in-law came over one after another, bringing several children with them, and the room instantly became more lively.

The little girls were okay, but the little boy was really noisy.

Running, jumping, noisy, and insisting on hugging the big fat cat sleeping on the kangqin, slithering away~ In the end, the latter was so frightened that he got under the cupboard and couldn't come out.

Xu Dahai is very receptive, takes things as they come, and finds it quite lively.

Braised pork ribs at noon.

After the fragrant pork ribs were brought to the table, steaming hot, everyone poured tons of wine and began to feast while drinking.

My brother-in-law, Wang Renhe, sat cross-legged across from Xu Dahai, also eating ribs:

“We have a lot of people selling red ginseng this year, but not many are making money!

Many people carry red ginseng on their backs to sell, and they are either blocked on the way, on the train, in the county town, or in the city. "

The second brother-in-law, Wang Renbing, laughed: "Do you know Lao Liu in the southeast of the township? He is teaming up with others to transport red ginseng to the other side of Hubei Province.

As a result, I hid all the way from place to place and lost all my dignity. I finally carried the red ginseng to Hunjiang Railway Station.

Before he even entered the station, he was immediately held down by others, haha~ I heard that he cried at that time, he was crying loudly! "

"Huh? Is there such a thing?"

Xu Dahai also smiled for a moment. It was indeed a bit miserable for an old man to cry in a crowded train station.

Well, the merit of this smile has disappeared after ten years.

The mother-in-law pushed a plate of braised elbows in sauce in the direction of Xiao Tingzi, and while adding vegetables to the latter, she said:

"Pan Laoliuhu is a bitch, and he does things in a daze. That guy from Xiufen's family is so smart. When he saw that the situation was not right, he ran away!!

There were six or seven of them in the group, but Xiufen's second son was not caught. Anyway, he was transporting red ginseng. I heard that he could make thousands of dollars from this trip! !

In his mother's words: You can get what others have been doing for several years with just one trip, but now it's okay if you don't work for several years. "

The mother-in-law learned it very well, with a bit of envy in her tone. In an instant, the father-in-law, brother-in-law, second brother-in-law and others started talking all over again.

Some say he is lucky.

Others said that he had been on guard early in the morning.

Xu Dahai asked curiously: "Where are they going to transport the red ginseng to Hubei Province?"

"Well... the second son of the Han family is quite strict with his mouth, but his mother is a big mouth. I heard it's Hanchuan. Is there such a place?" said the mother-in-law.

"Yes! It turns out we are going to Hanchuan..."

Xu Dahai suddenly realized that he knew this place. It was not far from the capital of Hubei Province.

After eating, he took a nap. When Xu Dahai woke up from the kang, he found that there was no big fat cat lying on his chest, and he was still a little uncomfortable.

But he quickly came back to his senses.

Come to think of it, this is not my home.

"Are you awake? Do you want to eat an apple?"

Wang Xiuxiu was standing next to the Tukang, peeling apples in circles, and the apple skins were connected together and would not fall off.

The house is quiet.

nobody else.

"Where are the others? Where is Xiao Tingzi?" Xu Dahai turned over and rubbed his face hard.
