Gluttonous canteen

As soon as he entered the door, the carp was almost choked by the strong smell in the house. Although he couldn't remember what it was at the time, now that it's time to think about it, it's similar to when the master near the green belt was mowing the lawn. It has a grassy smell, but it is also mixed with the slightly drunken smell that humans have not bathed for a long time.

The little guy was choked to the point of tears, and the lights in the room were dim, so he wiped his tears for a while before he could see the picture in the room clearly.

The choking smell comes from the big kang next to the window. One can tell that the family’s economic strength is not weak. After all, in the Republic of China, most residents used window paper to cover the window lattices. Only some Large office units and joint-stock companies, as well as the princely and noble residences of the previous dynasty, can only afford light and light glass. This house has replaced the glass windows so early, which shows that it can be regarded as the old king Xie before the dilapidation.

There was a Kang table in the middle of the big Kang by the window. The style was old and the materials were exquisite. There was a small lamp on it. There is only one wax head left, and there are still a few lamps with glass shades of the same style on the small tea table next to the row of pear chairs under the kang. .

Li Zi squinted his eyes and wiped away his tears, until now he could see everything in the room clearly, and then he could clearly see the people on the kang.

Although the big kang is spacious, it looks quite crowded at the moment. The one kang that takes up half of the room should have been reserved for husband and wife. It's terrible, but at this moment Li Zi counted quietly, there are six or seven people on the kang, and there are even men, women, old and young, each with their own merits. At that time, the boy was still a simple child. The work on the set, because these people are not only entrenched on the kang, but they are even covered with a quilt!

"Um, ma'am?"

Li Zi identified it for a long time, and found that sitting on the top of the kang was an elderly woman with a bun on her head, hairpins, rings, jewelry, rouge and gouache, but she looked not very energetic. If I use the current words to describe it, it's a bit like the girl tickets of Li Chuo's younger brothers after staying up late and dancing disco. The lipstick is almost eaten up, and the mascara has fallen into panda eyes.

"Are you a clerk at the Er Huan shop? Please run for a while, it's really inconvenient at home." The woman who looked like a wife smiled at Li Zi with some embarrassment, and waved her hand to signal him to come over.

The little boy walked over to the Haitian Shengyan scene in a panic, and carefully placed the food box on the kang table according to the woman's gestures. Before they had time to serve them, the two youngest children seemed to be unable to wait, and they stretched out their hands to go Grasp.

"There are no rules!" The woman seemed to be irritated by the children's ignorant behavior. She reached out and patted the Kang table gently, successfully frightening the two young children, who seemed to be sisters. The two brothers have round faces and big eyes, and they look very similar.

"My little aunt said you can take it!" Who knew that the little boy with a thick head and a thick head would refresh Li Zi's three views once again.

"Boss, how do you teach children, alas..." The woman seemed to have a headache from the two brats, and turned her head to look at the man lying beside her. The man seemed to be quite young, but because The gender relationship is not dressed up like a few female relatives, showing the original face, as gray as dead, and it seems that the brain is not very bright. Hearing the accusation from the mother in the title, he just lowered his head and nodded slightly. For a moment, I didn't speak.

What the hell is this?Putting it in cross talk is ethics... Ten thousand grass and mud horses galloped past Lizi's heart. At that time, there were not so many mothers on Weibo and WeChat. It was the first time Lizi saw that she was married and had children. The 30-year-old eldest son actually slept on the same bed as his own mother, and couldn’t help shivering all over his body. He is not Zhang Tao—I have eaten it since ancient times. He is very refined, but he is still relatively conservative in thinking, and he can't eat the weird bowl of Amway in front of him.

"Uh, ma'am, otherwise, I'll divide the dishes into two portions, and let the young master and the young ladies go down to the kang to eat..." Li Zi held back for a long time. Asking him to serve the dinner, such a large kang really can't eat.

"Ugh……"

The woman was still wiping the corners of her elder son and younger daughter's mouths with the handkerchief she took out of her bosom, when she heard Li Zi's suggestion, she suddenly let out a long sigh.

Like Zhang Tao, Li Zi is a ten thousand-year-old virgin, and he doesn't particularly understand the little thoughts of girls of all ages, but he seems to have deciphered a hint of despair from the woman's sigh.

"Uh, what's the matter?" Although he knew that he would regret asking too much, but the young man was still very enthusiastic. After all, the Yang family was a regular customer of Er Huan Shop, and he had taken care of his family's business over the years. It's not easy to do, if this family is lost again, I'm afraid that the shopkeeper and himself will really drink the northwest wind.

"It's not that I don't want them to go down, it's really..."

The woman smiled wryly, and did not continue, but lovingly patted the little daughter's head. The little girl sat opposite her big brother, and seemed to be a little smarter than the man. When she saw her mother sighing, she tactfully He threw himself into her arms, but he didn't know if it was Li Zi's illusion. He felt that the young lady's posture was quite strange, as if her legs were fixed under the quilt, causing her upper body to move vigorously. It's a little awkward.

Rumble, rumble.

Just when Lizi was wondering, he suddenly heard something roaring above the house, followed by a sharp whistle that was very familiar to the citizens of the imperial capital at that time—it was an air defense siren!

"Ma'am! It's an air raid! Have you dug an air-raid shelter at home? Or a place to pickle vegetables in the cellar. If it's not convenient for you, I'll carry you down!"

When the boy heard the air defense alarm, he was so frightened that his body shook and his chrysanthemum tightened. It was unrealistic to run to the air-raid shelter on the street at the moment. Fortunately, there are cellars for pickling pickles in ordinary courtyard houses. Blocking a little bit is better than waiting to die.

"This...I..."

The tired and lazy expression on the woman's face finally disappeared, replaced by a sense of almost hopeless fear, she stared at the ceiling, her thin white hands that were exposed outside the bed tightly grasped the corner of the bed, as if tensed It's as if you can get salvation if you lose all your muscles.

"I grew up here, and I can't leave." The woman hesitated for a while, and said something inexplicable.

What does it mean that you can't walk here if you grow up here? Who is not an old neighbor in this township? If the bandits, bearded, warlords and soldiers from outside the city come in, can they still not run away?

Li Zi thinks that this woman may be sick in bed for a long time and her brain is not working well, or she may be paralyzed and unable to walk. Her precious son has no will to survive. Hearing the roar of bombers and the sharp air defense siren, Trembling all over, he hid in his mother's arms like sifting chaff, not even daring to look out the window.

There were only a few children of the junior generation who seemed to have a glimmer of vitality. Hearing Lizi say it was dangerous, they all huddled together and did not dare to move around. They seemed to have some hope, and they looked helplessly at the woman who had the final say at home, as if I kind of want to go with the carp.

"At least hide the children!" Li Zi shouted.

"No, you don't understand." The woman's expression changed from panic to despair, and she reached out to hug the children and grandchildren surrounded by her knees.

"Even if they leave, they won't live long." Looking at her little daughter and other grandchildren, the woman just sighed softly, shook her head, and even restrained her despair. , I began to close my eyes and meditate, as if all the life and death that was about to happen in front of me had nothing to do with me.

Just as they were wrangling, suddenly, the main room in the second yard shook violently, the sound of explosions came from far to near, and dust and gravel began to fall down from the pasted ceiling.

"It's too late, let's go!" The young man gritted his teeth, and now he can't care about whether he is a good man or not. As long as he can save people, it is not impossible for him to dig holes in broad daylight.

Boom!

The explosion was so sudden that I don't know where the bomb exploded nearby. A strong air wave rushed into the room, the glass windows and the ceiling were shattered, and the carp was blown several meters away. Shot on the opposite wall.

The little guy was pressed against the wall by the airflow for a few seconds, and the whole guy slid down from the wall again due to gravity, and he didn't care if his tail was printed on the wall behind him, a grunt crawling Get up and run to the big kang.

After the dust settled, Li Zi saw an indescribable scene.

The quilt and table on the big kang were lifted to the ground due to the airflow, and because of the explosion of the glass windows, several people on the kang were more or less cut with blood dripping on their bodies. The one who was still lively just now Young Master Sun was even more unlucky, he was directly covered in the kang by the falling ceiling, and the blood slowly penetrated deep from under the thick stone slabs, and the child didn't even cry out in pain - he no longer felt pain.

But what frightened Li Zi was not this, but what was under the quilt... It turned out that the lower bodies of all the people on the kang were connected together!

"What is this...?" The boy's chubby eyes stared blankly, staring blankly at the... things that are full of kangs. He has been mature for so long, and he has never seen such a miraculous creature... ?

"fire!"

The eldest son, who had been curled up in his mother's arms, suddenly went mad and pointed out the window. The flames of war had already spread to the room through the curtains, and the bedding on the kang was instantly ignited.
