Rebirth 1984 Wife and children are on the hot bed

Under the night.

More and more villagers are gathering in Grandpa’s courtyard.

There are no entertainment activities for the villagers. Many people don't like playing cards, and watching TV costs electricity. Now my grandfather slaughters pigs in the yard, and everyone regards it as entertainment.

"The water is boiling!"

Second sister Xu Mei shouted from inside the room.

"Well, with hot water, you can remove the pig hair."

With Grandpa, Master Liu, Second Uncle, and Third Uncle there, Xu Dahai couldn't get involved at all, so he, Zhao Yejun, Xu Hu, and Rong Chenglin watched the excitement and chatted in the north of the yard.

The conversation soon turned to cherry trees.

Zhao Yejun wanted to try Northeastern cherries, but the cherries from the cherry tree in Xu Dahai's yard had long been eaten.

The cherries ripen in July, and the time has long since passed.

But Rong Chenglin smiled and said: "Want to eat cherries? Then go to my house.

There is a cherry tree in my backyard, and there are many cherries growing on it. "

"Ah? Are there any cherries now?"

Xu Hu was a little surprised and asked.

"Yes, that tree just started growing this year, and it grew relatively late."

Rong Chenglin led the way, and Xu Dahai, Zhao Yejun, and Xu Hu followed behind.

Xu Hu also held a metal flashlight at the elbow of his right arm.

After arriving at the backyard of Rongcheng Lin's house.

Rong Chenglin smiled and said: "There is no need to go around the front yard. There is a small door in the northwest corner of the backyard. Just go in through the small door."

Opening the dilapidated small fence gate and entering the garden, Xu Hu also turned on the flashlight and quickly found the cherry tree.

The leaves are green and narrow, rustling in the night wind.

But when I pulled back the leaves, I saw many small red fruits growing on each branch. Each one was distinct, round and round, and very beautiful.

"How many cherry trees are there in the garden?"

Zhao Yejun looked around and could vaguely see seven or eight cherry trees with the help of the moonlight.

But there are only leaves and no cherries.

"There are about a dozen of them, all grown by themselves. In the spring, they even plowed out a lot of small seedlings."

Rong Chenglin smiled and said:

"Pick it and eat it, see if you like it.

If you like to eat, you can come here early next year. If you come in July, the trees will be full of red cherries, which is so beautiful. "

Northeastern cherries are small.

It's best to cover your mouth with a handful of it, it tastes the best.

Zhao Yejun also picked up a handful of cherries and put them all into his mouth. He was full of praise for the food:

"It tastes really good! Is it possible to grow this kind of tree in Guanli? Why don't you take one with you when I leave?"

"Take it, dig out whichever tree you want." Rong Chenglin said with a smile: "As for whether it can be planted..."

His eyes looked towards Xu Dahai.

The latter chewed the cherry in his mouth and said with a smile: "I don't know, just try planting it. If it doesn't survive, it will be pulled down."

Everyone was eating cherries and chatting.

As a result, the sound alerted Rong Chenglin's wife. She pulled on her slippers and a gown and carefully took a flashlight to the back garden to check.

I was relieved when I found out that it was a few of them, and that my own man was also inside.

"It's such a dark day, why don't you eat cherries? Are you cold? Come and sit in the room."

"No, let's go back and watch the pig slaughter."

It had been a day of hard work. After returning to Grandpa's yard and playing for a while, Xu Dahai's eyes trembled and he went back to sleep.

The next morning.

Huang Lei came to pick Huang Ying back, but Xu Dahai persuaded her to stay, and he also had a meal of butchered pork here.

Garlic white meat, blood sausage, deboned meat dipped in chili oil, garlic pork heart, braised pork ribs with sauerkraut, etc...

Zhao Yejun sat cross-legged on the kang, eating to his heart's content and praising him again and again.

"This deboned meat is delicious! It's chewy."

Seeing that he liked to eat meat and bones, grandpa brought the plate of meat and bones closer to him.

Zhao Yejun was flattered and quickly waved his hand, saying that he had enough.

After learning that the elder in Zhao Yejun's family was a railway soldier, his grandfather felt even more cordial.

Because the predecessor of the Railway Corps was the Shino Railway Column.

As the first of the five main forces, the Fourth Field Army was called the "Northeast Field Army" before March 1949, 3.

That is, Xu Dahai's grandfather belongs to the same army as Zhao Yejun's elders.

"It turns out that the old man is also a soldier from all over the world. I'd like to toast you!"

Zhao Yejun was in awe. He came from a military family, so he was naturally more aware of the difficulties in the surrounding areas back then.

Grandpa's chatterbox opened up, and he couldn't help but have tears in his eyes: "In the spring of 1946, Chiang Kai-shek's elite troops began to attack Siping..."

Grandpa is talking about the Siping Defense War, which was quite fierce.

The atmosphere at the dinner table became a little depressing.

Grandpa came to his senses in a daze, forced out a smile and said:

"You juniors have caught up with the good times and don't have to suffer the hardships of the war years... I'm full, you can continue to eat."

Grandpa got off the kang and went to the yard to get some fresh air.

The second uncle whispered to his eldest brother Xu Houtian: "Is our father okay?"

"As I get older, I always talk about the past. If it's okay, you guys eat first and I'll go see our dad."

Xu Houtian took another large piece of ribs and went out with his shoes while eating.

After eating.

Zhao Yejun drank a little too much and soon lay on the kang and fell asleep.

Huang Lei sat for a while and then rushed home with her daughter Huang Ying. When she got home, it was already 2:[-] pm.

"You're back!? You've gained weight! The food in Xujiatun is pretty good."

Huang Ying's mother smiled.

She was also worried that her daughter had lost weight due to hunger, but now it seemed that she was overthinking it.

After entering the house, I washed a few apples and chatted while eating them.

In addition to asking about life matters, I also asked about her study situation and checked Huang Ying's winter vacation homework.

"It's true that it's all written. Why does this word look like it's crawling like a dung beetle? Can't you write it neatly, stroke by stroke?"

"Is there any? Is the writing okay?"

Huang Ying's pretty face turned red.

She stretched her neck and looked at the words on the paper and remembered.

This was when she first went to Xujiatun. Knowing that Xu Juan had to finish her summer homework, she was a little anxious.

When I get anxious, the words I write take off.

"Forget it, let's not talk about it." Huang Ying's mother is a teacher. She naturally knows that summer homework is useless. Most teachers won't read it if she submits it.

She was more concerned about how Huang Ying was doing with her sophomore year knowledge preview.

After learning that she had previewed all arithmetic, geometry, Chinese, physics, and history subjects, she could even use many arithmetic and geometric formulas proficiently.

Huang Ying's mother was shocked. She immediately checked and verified each one, and she became more and more satisfied.

Sudden.

Her heart moved, and she turned to Huang Lei and said, "They have taught our children so well. Shouldn't we buy something to thank them?"

"Yeah, I'll go there another day if I have time."

……

After waking up from a nap, it was already past three in the afternoon.

Xu Dahai took Zhao Yejun around the back garden, picked two melons and ate them, watching the roe deer strolling in the juan.

"Is this a circle?"

"Yeah, raising male roe deer and female roe deer separately can also reduce conflicts."

Long-term worker Yang Weiguo was shoveling manure, while his mother, dressed in coarse cloth, was preparing feed for the young roe deer - feed made of peanut cakes, cooked soybeans, corn, wheat bran, and bones left over from eating ribs.

"This winter, there will be a batch of roe deer sold to Tian Daer, right?" Zhao Yejun grabbed a piece of dogtail grass and held it in his mouth.

"That guy will make a lot of money by taking advantage of you."
