Rebirth breaks you straight

Chapter 3 The Early Bird

Opening his eyes, Chen Zan heaved a sigh of relief and poked his head out of the bed, it was still dark in the main room, it was still dark.Chen Qiaozheng opened the heavy wooden door with a "squeak" and moved the bicycle out.

"Sister, are you going to school?"

Chen Qiao put down the car and came over: "Brother, did you wake up? Is your head still hurting?" She reached out and touched Chen Zan's forehead.

Chen Zan shook his head: "It doesn't hurt anymore, sister."

Chen Qiao picked up the enamel jar containing pickles and hung it on the handlebar of the bicycle. This is the food she will eat for a week: "Then I'm leaving, brother, be obedient at home, study hard, and bring you stickers when I come back."

Chen Zan looked at the vegetable jar that Chen Qiao was carrying, and felt a little sour in his heart. At that time, his family was poor, and his sister had eaten unnutritious pickles for three years in junior high school. Longer than 1.6 meters.

"Thank you, sister, goodbye!" Chen Zan did not refuse her sister. Stickers are a common memory of people in this era. At that time, merchants printed many Hong Kong and Taiwan film and television stills on stickers, and two cents could buy about ten sheets an inch. The stickers on the left and right are very exquisite. Students like to paste these stickers on their diaries or textbooks.

Chen Qiao closed the door and left. Chen Zan couldn't fall asleep anymore, so he got up to fetch water for breakfast.But the bucket was too high for him to reach, so he carried a small wooden bucket.

The autumn morning is a bit cool, the sky is not bright, there is only a little morning light, and there is not a light white mist.The Artemisia annua and grass on the roadside were covered with thin crystal dewdrops. Chen Zan walked over and swept the grass until he shook his head, but it also wet his trouser legs.

"Ah! Xiao Zan got up so early to fetch water?" A surprised voice sounded.

Chen Zan looked up and saw that it was Yu Bilian, the chatting mother. He hurriedly said hello, "Good morning, Aunt Bilian."

"Xiao Zan is really sensible. He got up so early to fetch water and cook. Those cubs of my family slept like his father and didn't get up until the sun basked in their buttocks. Really! Xiao Zan, your parents are so lucky .” Yu Bilian sighed enviously.

Yu Bilian was a well-known beauty when she was young, and Tan Weimin, Tan Tian's father, was also a handsome guy when he was young, a combination of a handsome man and a beautiful woman.But his father is also a well-known gambler, and every time he gambles, he will lose, and if he loses, he will beat his wife and children.

Yu Bilian is a timid and cowardly woman, she has no ability, can't control her husband, and is often beaten and scolded by her husband. She is a very pitiful woman.

Later, Yu Bilian couldn't bear Tan Weimin's violence, and went out to work with the young girls and daughters-in-law in the village, and never came back.It is said that she was favored by a rich boss and married to Taiwan.This happened in the year when Chen Zan was in junior high school, almost two years from now.

Chen Zan stuck out his tongue secretly. In fact, he used to be the same as Chat Tian, ​​he often slept until his mother pressed Wuzhishan on his buttocks before procrastinatingly getting up.He sighed when he thought of Chattian's family background. Growing up in such a family, it's no wonder that Chattian became president.

Chen Zan put the wooden barrel into the open-air well, pressed the barrel down, filled it with water, and lifted it up, embarrassing, he almost forgot that he was only nine years old now, and he couldn't lift a full barrel of water at all. Almost a stagger was pulled into the well.

Yu Bilian pulled him back quickly with sharp eyes, and the bucket left her hand and floated in the well.

The elder and the younger were startled, and Yu Bilian was shocked, and reached out to help Chen Zan lift the bucket up, while not forgetting to scold him: "You child, you don't know how to ask your aunt to help, why did you mention it so much?" Big bucket of water, what if it falls?" He said, bringing up a bucket of clear well water and putting it on the well platform.

Chen Zan stuck out his tongue: "Thank you Aunt Bilian, I forgot, I will pay attention to it in the future."

This water well was the most common open-air well at this time. There were several in every village, and they were shared by everyone. The wells were dug under river embankments or hillsides to collect groundwater.The well is not deep, about one or two meters. Although Chen Zan can't be drowned, taking a cold bath in this kind of well is not enough, and the well water is dirty and prevents everyone from using it.

Seeing that he quickly admitted his mistake, Yu Bilian laughed: "Okay, pour some water out, don't mention it, and go home quickly."

Chen Zan didn't pour out the water in the bucket, but carried the bucket of water and went home cautiously.Yu Bilian shook her head behind him enviously, why are the sons and daughters of the Chen family so sensible, they really deserve to be thrown away.

Liu Shuangshuang opened the door, with disheveled long hair and a comb in one hand. She yawned halfway when she was startled by her son carrying water: "Xiao Zan? Why did you get up so early and go Did you fetch water?" This child has changed his sex, and he doesn't want to get up no matter how much he screams, why did he get up earlier than himself today? Could it be that he broke his head yesterday?

"Morning, good morning." Chen Zan looked at his mother, feeling quite uncomfortable, as if he was looking at an old photo of his mother many years ago, young and beautiful.

Liu Shuangshuang quickly put the comb in her pocket, and quickly took the bucket from Chen Zan's hand: "I'll do it, I'll do it."

Yu Bilian, who was carrying the water, followed from behind, and greeted Liu Shuangshuang from a distance: "Shuangshuang, your little Zan is really sensible, she got up so early to help you carry water."

Liu Shuangshuang's eyes turned into crescents with laughter, and said without turning her head: "This brat, I don't know what's going on, he gets up so early to fetch water, and he can't even shout."

Chen Zan shook his head with a slight smile, seeing his mother carrying water and twisting her waist into the room briskly, he knew that although his mother was criticizing him, she was actually happy.Parents of this generation have always been against educating their children. They are afraid that if they praise their children, their tails will go up to the sky. They are so proud that they don't know the heights of heaven and earth, so they never praise their children in front of their faces.

He didn't understand it before, and he always thought it was because he didn't do well, and he complained a lot to his parents. Later, when he grew up, he understood this way of education.But at this time, he is an adult, his personality has been formed, and his lack of self-confidence and slightly pessimistic personality cannot be changed.

He vaguely heard his mother reprimanding his father at home: "Chen Changlong, you still have the nerve to stay in bed, your son is up earlier than you, hurry up and chop firewood!"

Chen Zan laughed and said loudly to the room: "Mom, I'm going for a run." As he spoke, he stretched his waist, twisted his joints, and ran out with his feet wide open.

Liu Shuangshuang chased him out: "Xiao Zan, what are you doing?"

Chen Zan replied from a distance: "I'm going for a run, the teacher said, it's good to keep exercising." In this day and age, the teacher's words are the imperial decree, not only for children, but also for parents.

"Come back early for breakfast, I have to go to school soon." Liu Shuangshuang shouted from a distance.

"understood."

In the countryside 20 years ago, everything was backward, but everything was original, natural and simple, like a beautiful watercolor painting.

The white walls of Daiwa are hidden in the red, yellow and green autumn trees, and the light blue smoke rises; all kinds of birds are twirling among the treetops; the rooster comes out of the cage and flaps its wings to fly to the treetops , stretched their necks and whined; dogs barked and competed with their companions for territory; children led cattle to graze on the fertile sandbar before school; adults carried hoes and baskets to start the day's work.A village wakes up in the morning light.

Looking at the scene in front of him, Chen Zan wanted to scream with joy in his heart, he would rather stay in this moment forever, even if he was a nine-year-old child forever, he would never grow up in a hurry.

He ran across the fields, across the river embankment, and to the back of the mountain, where he picked a bunch of sweet grapes and a few jujubes that were blown down by the night wind.When passing by the pine forest, I picked up a few fat and big mushrooms.Chen Zan rolled his eyes with a smile, the early bird gets the worm, and the early riser gets the treasure.

The sun poked his head out from the other side of the mountain, Chen Zan straightened up, spit out the jujube core, pressed the mushrooms in his pockets with his hands, and ran back with his feet loose, he had to go back to eat and go to school.

When he got home, he found that chatting was already at his door.

"Xiao Zan, is your head still hurting?" Tan Tian asked him with concern.

Chen Zan glanced at him: "It's okay. What are you doing at my house?" He said as he took the mushrooms out of his pocket and put them in the basket.

"You went to pick up mushrooms so early? There are so many, they are all mung bean mushrooms." Tan Tian didn't mind Chen Zan's indifference at all, he carefully took out an egg from his pocket, "Xiao Zan, you bumped your head yesterday and bled. Yes, I brought an egg from home to make up for you."

Chen Zan stared at the egg with rounded eyes: "Did you steal it from home?" Because Tan Weimin likes to gamble, and Tan Tian's family background is one of the best in the village, it is the bottom, and his eggs are kept for oil Salt, where there are extra eggs to replenish the body.

Tan Tian hissed softly: "Don't say it loudly, I took it out behind my mother's back, she won't know."

Chen sighed: "No, chat, you can put the eggs back. Your mother knows how many eggs your chickens have laid. If there are fewer eggs, I will definitely trouble you. My mother gave me the eggs last night. I boiled two eggs."

Holding the green-skinned egg in his hand, chatting with a hurt expression on his face, he gave Chen Zan the egg at the risk of being scolded by his mother, but Chen Zan didn't want his: "Xiao Zan, are you still here?" Blame me?"

Chen Zan shook his head: "I said I don't blame you so I don't blame you. Why are you still like this? Put the eggs back quickly, or I'll tell your mother that you pushed me off the tree yesterday."

After all, chatting was still afraid of being beaten, so he hurried back with the egg.

Chen Zan took out all the mushrooms and went to wash his hands. He wanted to brush his teeth, but found that he didn't have his own toothbrush. He frowned. It was time to buy a toothbrush to brush his teeth.He rinsed his mouth with water, washed his face, and picked up a bowl to serve rice.

Mom was chopping pig grass and cooking pig food in the yard, and Dad had already gone out.Usually he eats first and then goes to school.

Chen Zan picked up a piece of tofu puffs steamed with bean paste, squatted on the threshold of the main room and began to eat.

Chat ran back again and stood beside Chen Zan waiting for him to eat.Chen Zan ignored him.

Chatting for a while, he asked again: "Xiao Zan, what did you do just now? You haven't told me yet."

"I went for a run."

"Huh?" Tan Tian was taken aback, "What are you running for?"

Chen Zan swallowed his mouth full of food: "It's just running and exercising."

It's strange to chat, do you still need to run specially for running? When will they not run, they will run to school when they are almost late, and they will run to play after school, do they still use special running?

Chen Zan gave him a blank look: "You don't understand even if you tell me."

In his previous life, Chen Zan managed to grow to only 170 cm, but the abnormal Tan Tian grew to 178 cm. According to him, it was because he did not eat enough to affect his height when he grew up, otherwise he would definitely exceed 180 cm.Chen Zan decided to make up for his weakness with hard work, exercise his body well, and find ways to make money to supplement nutrition. He can't lose at the starting line, he must grow taller.

Chatting over: "Then are you still running tomorrow?"

"Run." Chen Zan made up his mind that he must run to the end.

Chatting like a pug wagging his fawning tail: "Then Xiao Zan, let me run with you tomorrow."

Chen Zan looked the chat up and down, and said contemptuously, "Can you get up?"

Tan Tian straightened his chest: "I'm sure I can get up."

Chen Zan didn't take it seriously, thinking that Chatting was just joking: "If you can get up, then you can run with me."
