Rebirth 1984 Wife and children are on the hot bed

A big gathering in the countryside.

The old monkey showman has gray hair, and there are three monkeys beside him. Outside the open space with a radius of five or six meters, there are spectators on three floors inside and three outside.

"Sun Wukong! Sun Wukong!!"

Some children were the most excited, shouting excitedly when they saw the monkey waving the stick neatly.

The three monkeys are quite active. They climb poles, stand on their heads, do somersaults, dance, get into fire rings, imitate the chatter of others around them, and so on.

There was laughter from time to time, the atmosphere was very joyful, and more and more people gathered.

"It's quite interesting. I saw monkey tricks in Haidian last time, but those monkeys were not trained well, they were half-baked, and they even scratched people."

Zhao Yejun smiled and said:

"This man's monkey is obviously better tamed and his performance is better."

He took out his camera, adjusted the angle, clicked, and took a picture of the man playing monkey and the three monkeys together. It can be regarded as one of the memories of his visit to Northeast China in the late spring of 1989.

Dangdang ~

The monkey beat the gong, the monkey juggler carried the basket, and asked for money. For a while, everyone kept throwing coins, some small bills, etc.

Most of them give one cent or two cents, and some give five cents.

Xu Dahai also paid a little, just as he wanted to. Zhao Yejun paid the most, giving two yuan.

A look of surprise flashed across the face of the monkey charmer. When he saw that Zhao Yejun was not dressed like a farmer, he guessed that he was from the city and asked the monkey to bow to him.

Then continue the show.

After a while, they will knock the gong and ask for money.

"Okay, let's go to the market."

"OK."

Xu Hu just gave him five points. He held his arms with both hands and smiled as he walked:

"There are so many people at the big market. If you wait for a while and ask for money, I'm afraid I'll make a lot of money at the end of the day!"

"No, if you divide it into two points, you can add up to ten or twenty yuan, or even more... But this is also a technical job, and ordinary people can't do it."

I also bought tofu, roasted chicken, tea, candles, sharpening stones, lubricating oil for sewing machines, etc.

Seeing someone selling candied haws, Xu Dahai bought some more considering that there were many people at home. Before he could pay, Zhao Yejun had already rushed to pay the money.

"I've already taken out all the money, what are you saying?"

"Ha, it doesn't matter who pays, let's go!" Zhao Yejun smiled and walked forward first.

Ta da da~ da da da~

After driving the tractor back to Xujiatun, we just stopped at the door when a man suddenly ran over from the dirt road to the west.

His trouser legs were rolled up, his feet and legs were covered in mud, his hair was a mess, and the chest of his vest was soaked with sweat.

Take a closer look.

Xu Dahai discovered that it was Li Cai from Laosongtun, nicknamed Caibianzi. During the winter, he and his father worked together to smash holes and catch frozen fish to sell for money.

"Uncle Cai, what's going on?"

Li Cai is the elder, so Xu Dahai will call him Uncle Cai, but he cannot directly call him Cai Panzi.

"Xiaohai, just in time, the tractor I was driving fell into a ditch. Please help me pull it out."

"Yeah, uncle, don't worry, I'll go find the rope."

After Zhao Yejun, Xu Hu and others got out of the carriage, they also moved down all the things they bought from the market.

pop~

Xu Dahai threw a coil of hemp rope into the truck bed and asked Li Cai to get in. He then started the tractor and drove west.

"Xu Houtian's little son is really strong. With this body, he wishes he could kill a cow with one punch."

Li Cai muttered. He stood in the carriage, leaning forward slightly, holding the iron frame beam with both hands. The cold wind blew past, and his restless heart slowly calmed down.

More than ten minutes later.

Under Li Cai's guidance, he turned left at the fork in the road. There were acres of rice fields on both sides, with green seedlings swaying slowly in the breeze.

A toad swam around on its powerful legs, causing ripples in the rice fields.

Da da da~

The tractor emitted bursts of black smoke, and Xu Dahai soon saw that there were many villagers surrounding the west side of the dirt road ahead.

There were bullock carts, 28-wheelers, and motorcycles. Everyone's eyes were focused on the tractor head that had fallen into the ditch.

Some were standing, sitting, and squatting, all laughing and watching the excitement, and discussing how to raise the tractor head.

"Damn, there are so many good things (four sounds)."

Li Cai is a good-looking person, but his expression is a little uneasy.

"Come on, young and old, help tie the rope." Xu Dahai stopped the tractor, got down neatly, and asked Li Cai to throw down the rope.

Everyone is watching the excitement, but when it comes to helping, they are not vague.

The two gentlemen smoked cigarettes, took off their shoes, rolled up their trouser legs, went down into the ditch, and tied the rope to the rear beam of the tractor together.

"This end is tied! Just tie the other end firmly and that's it."

"Someone needs to sit on it. Can it light the fire?"

"It's best to turn it on, but the angle is not good. Hey, it doesn't take much effort."

"Get started, let me twist it!" A long-faced man stood with both feet in the mud ditch and asked another man to help relieve the pressure. Veins popped out in his arms, and he suddenly exerted force and the wheels turned.

Da da da~

"Let go!"

The other man quickly released the pressure, lowered his head, pulled away, and quickly retreated to the back.

The rapidly rotating rocker is very dangerous. If it hits the chin, the jaw will be broken; if it hits the arm, the arm will be broken.

Everyone came from several nearby villages and basically knew each other. When Li Cai saw everyone helping him, he bared his big yellow teeth and became happy. He lay down on the grass beside the ditch and kept shouting:

"Be careful, be careful, be careful..."

soon.

Xu Dahai drove his tractor north along the dirt road. Click, click, click, click, click. As the rope tightened, a huge force pulled the tractor head that fell into the ditch.

As the wheels turned, the soil was squeezed, broken, and fell into the ditch.

Da da da~

The tractor sprayed out more black smoke, carrying a lot of sparks. Maybe it was strong enough, and it directly pulled the tractor head up from the ditch.

"good!!"

Cheers instantly erupted all around, the crowd cheered up, the noise from the tractor suddenly subsided, and Xu Dahai also got off the tractor with a big smile.

"Okay, Uncle Cai, be more careful next time. I'm going back."

"Well, it's all thanks to you, my eldest nephew, this time. Uncle Tian will give us a hard time, and we will have a drink together."

Li Cai gritted his teeth and took out half a pack of "Saiyou" cigarettes. He quickly handed one to Xu Dahai and said, "It's the last one. I can't bear to smoke it. I'll give it to you, my eldest nephew." Pack up the cigarette case.

swoosh~

The man who was helping to twist the handle just now, with quick eyes and quick hands, snatched the Saiyou cigarette case and laughed:

"Uncle Cai, you're just lying to me. There are obviously seven or eight left, but there's only one left!!"

Both Hanzi and Li Cai were from Laosongtun, so they were very familiar with each other. He turned to everyone and laughed and said:

"Come on, come on, who smokes?? Let Uncle Cai be so picky, I will smoke his cigarettes today and finish them all for him!"

"I!"

"Give me one!"

A few young men smoking cigarettes ran over first, and others followed suit.

Li Cai laughed angrily, turned his head in the end, waved his hands and said:

"Forget it, you can smoke it, but the cigarettes cost 1 yuan and 7 cents a pack, so one cigarette costs 8 cents and 5 cents.

If you get addicted to smoking, you will have to spend your own money to buy it. "
