Rebirth 1984 Wife and children are on the hot bed

Under the night, raindrops fell in series and continuously.

In the water tank in the front yard, there were splashes of water, and the big fat Chinese fish came to the surface and opened its mouth to breathe oxygen.

"Slow down on the road! Brother Yeliang, you didn't bring a flashlight? Just use this one from me and bring it back tomorrow."

"You don't have to?"

"There's another one in the house."

At the gate of the fence, after watching a few people go away with flashlights, Xu Dahai quickly ran into the house.

"Hiss~ It's so cold when it rains!"

Xu Dahai locked the door, took off the fertilizer bag wrapped around his body, put it down in the corner, and walked into the back room.

Xiao Tingzi sat on the kang, watching cartoons and petting the big fat cat.

Wang Xiuxiu was peeling peanuts, and with a pinch of her thumbs, the shells cracked.

The peanuts fell into the dustpan.

The peanut shells were thrown to the ground.

"Have they all gone home?"

"Yeah, by the way, let's plant some peanuts in the back garden this year, right?

We also grow sweet potatoes, corns, beans, etc. It will be convenient to eat edamame and young corns when the time comes. "Xu Dahai sat on the kang, pinching peanuts from the dustpan and eating them.

Raw peanuts taste quite good and become more and more fragrant the more you chew them.

"Okay, of the five acres of newly acquired land, aren't there still three acres left vacant?

When the time comes, we will plant beans, corns and sweet potatoes on it. "Wang Xiuxiu said with a smile.

After lights out.

Xu Dahai's family of three lay on the kang in the inner room, listening to the patter of rain outside, and slept very soundly.

The big fat cat was lying on the bed, purring so loudly that it almost drowned out the muffled thunder outside the window.

It rained lightly all day and all night, and it stopped in the afternoon of the next day.

A gorgeous rainbow appeared on the horizon.

After school, the children ran home through mud and water, dropped their schoolbags and went to catch toads.

Xu Dahai, Pan Laoliu, and Ma Liang were working in the second roe deer pen, plastering the walls and placing wood.

Soon my daughter Xiao Tingzi came over with a few dogs.

"Dad, look what's in my hand!?"

The little girl raised her hand high as if offering a treasure. It turned out that she was holding a big toad in her hand.

"Ahem, did you catch him?"

"No, it was Brother Doubao who gave it to me. They went to catch toads in the southern river again."

Xiao Tingzi was very happy and quickly begged Xu Dahai:

"Quick, tie this toad, don't let it escape."

Pan Laoliu was also tired, so he stuck his shovel on the ground and planned to rest for a while.

After lighting a cigarette, he walked over with a smile while smoking:

"Hey, this toad is quite fat! Little girl, aren't you afraid of toads?"

"Not afraid!"

The little girl's proud appearance instantly made a few people laugh, and laughter floated in the roe deer circle.

He took a thin rope and tied one end to the toad, and the little girl held the other end in her hand.

Xu Dahai stood up with a smile:

"Okay, let's play with toads, but don't go to the puddle. You can't swim. If you slip down, you'll be in trouble."

"Yeah, I'm not going."

Xu Dahai smoked cigarettes and chatted with everyone. After resting for a while, he got up and continued working.

But he looked back at the toads jumping on the ground, and suddenly thought of a poem written by a certain general - Daming Lake, Ming Lake is big, there are lotus flowers in Daming Lake.There is a toad on the lotus, which jumps when it pokes.

"What should be said or not, the writing is really vivid."

Xu Dahai smiled, put out his cigarette butt, and continued working with everyone.

Fragrant pork ribs stewed at night.

In addition, there are two large plates, which are used for dipping the soybean paste, local vegetables, etc., which are green and green with water drops on them.

"Where do these wild vegetables come from?" Xu Dahai sat cross-legged next to the kang table and said with a smile.

I casually pinched a piece of diced papaya, rolled it up, dipped it in soybean paste and stuffed it into my mouth. It was slightly bitter and salty, and had a mixed aroma.

Just right to relieve the greasiness of the spareribs.

"Xiao Tingzi's grandma brought it over. It's so big."

Wang Xiuxiu smiled and said:

"You guys should eat the ribs first. If it's not enough, there will be more in the pot."

……

Three days later, the second roe deer circle was completely completed. In the evening, the sky was covered with red clouds, which was dazzling. Father Xu Houtian and his second uncle set off firecrackers at the entrance of the roe deer circle together.

"Crackling~Crackling~"

Hanging firecrackers were lit, smoke filled the air, broken firecracker paper flew everywhere, and a joyful atmosphere began to ripple around.

Not only Xu Dahai, but also Wang Xiuxiu, mother, second aunt, third aunt, grandparents and others were watching.

There are also many villagers who have nothing to do and come to join in the fun. There are many children running around with slingshots or playing games, laughing and playing.

"Candied haws on a stick ~ Candied haws on a stick ~"

There happened to be an old man selling candied haws, riding a [-]-inch pole, selling while passing by. Seeing the crowd here, he turned directly over.

"How do you sell candied haws on a stick!?"

"A bunch of 1 cents. If you buy 8 bunches, you will get an extra bunch."

Hearing Xu Dahai's question, the old man with an old face and a somewhat hunched back shone with hope in his eyes.

He has already passed through three or four villages and only sold four or five bunches. It would be great if he could sell more at Xu Dahai.

"Okay! I want all the remaining candied haws!"

"What?"

The old man simply thought he had heard wrongly.

"I said I want them all, come on, the children are here to eat candied haws! Those who run fast eat first, and those who run slow are gone!

The second roe deer enclosure was built today, so happy! "

As soon as Xu Dahai shouted, Xiao Shitou was the first to run over, just like a gust of wind.

This kid actually had several dollars of private money, but his father and mother were both present, so he didn't use his private money to buy candied haws.

Otherwise, his mother would definitely take the money away.

Last year, most of the money he earned from catching toads and fish was taken away by his mother. She claimed that it was saved to buy him a wife, but in fact it was used to subsidize the family.

With Little Stone taking the lead, other children flocked to join us!The air seemed to be boiling with the noise.

"Give me a bunch! I'll let you get a bunch!"

"Don't squeeze, don't squeeze, someone is stepping on my shoes!"

"Bean bag! Why did you get two skewers? Give me one skewer!"

"Go aside, if you want to eat, you can take it yourself! This bunch is for my sister."

Some children are really shy, especially little girls, so adults help them carry them.

Other adults were talking, laughing and smoking casually around, but their eyes were actually focused on the candied haws on straw sticks.

After seeing that each child had one candied haws, and there were still a lot of candied haws left, everyone started to grab them one after another.

"Is it sweet?"

Xu Dahai had already taken a few bunches and distributed them to Xiaotingzi, Xiaoxiang, Xiaohua, Wang Xiuxiu and others. He also had a bunch himself.
