escape and return

After the high fever passed, the whole person was sore from the inside to the outside, and the way back took more time than usual.The setting sun was slowly setting behind him, and the shadows on the dirt road were drawn long and long. Gradually, the gray chill swallowed up the golden residual heat, and the earth began to enter the stage of preparation for sleep.The moon took over the work of the sun and quietly came out from behind the mountain to accompany the children on the road.

The dirt road was opened along the track of the river. The sound of the river's trickling water and the footsteps of Fangge Salsa hit Fangge's eardrums on this quiet road.By the time he had turned the sharpest bend in the Li River, he could see the lights of the village.A little further on, there are several graves on the hill next to the dirt road. They are the ancestors of various households in Lihe Village. Hands came out and grabbed him.At this moment, he was running with all his might, his heavy schoolbag banging on his buttocks, every house in the village was glowing with dots of light, Fangge looked at the light in the distance, his nose started Sour.

When he reached the tung tree forest, Fangge finally slowed down, his heart was beating non-stop. He walked through the forest in the dark, crossed the river by moonlight, and nervous emotions kept rushing into his heart.There was still a light on in the lobby downstairs, and the dim light leaked through the two small square windows above the door frame.Fangge twisted the doorknob, but it couldn't be opened, so he twisted harder, and it locked.The sourness in his nose became heavier, he pursed his lips, and began to knock on the door.The third grandfather next door came out of the house and saw Fangge who was locked outside the house, "Fangge, why did you come back? Are you detained?"

"Hello, third grandpa."

"Where's the key? Didn't you bring it? You yell and let them open the door for you."

Square doesn't have a key, they never gave it.There was no movement in the room at all. Seeing this, the third grandpa raised his head and shouted upstairs: "Boss, come down and open the door. Do you want your nephew?" After shouting, he sat on the stone bench in front of the house and whispered. He muttered: "What an old bastard." He took out his cigarette pouch, and the match head ignited with a "hiss", and the shredded tobacco on the pipe was dotted with red stars, and he began to smoke the dry tobacco.There was a sound of footsteps in the room, coming from the stairs, getting closer, Fang Ge tightly grasped the straps of the schoolbag with both hands, and stared at the crack in the door with his eyes lowered.The door lock turned around inside, clicked, and opened.Grandpa opened the door one person wide, glanced at him, then looked up at the third grandpa, turned around and went upstairs again without saying anything.Fang Ge quietly breathed a sigh of relief, and looked back at the third grandpa, only to see him raising one hand and waving it, telling him to go in quickly.

The door lock was locked again, he put his schoolbag on the wooden table in the lobby, took out the medicine from the bag and turned into the kitchen at the back, there was a bowl of white rice on the stove, Fangge poured some boiling water into it, stirred After stirring it up, he gobbled it up.After eating the rice, he hurriedly swallowed the medicine with the little soup left in the bowl, and rushed to the lobby to do his homework.Fortunately, there wasn't much homework, and it was only a quarter of an hour after he finished writing.Fangge packed his homework and put it back in his schoolbag, got up and turned off the light in the lobby, went to the kitchen to wash the dishes just now, washed up again, turned off the light and went upstairs in the dark.

Moonlight sneaked in through the window, illuminating most of the room.Fangge closed the door gently, walked to the bed on tiptoe, and lay down slowly. The moment he lay flat, he felt his palms were sweating. The day was finally coming to an end, and Xiao Fangge silently closed the door. Eye.

In the dream, he saw his dear parents working in the field, Xiao Yuan Song sitting on the ridge of the field kneading mud, and the family's sheep were following the old cow to gnaw grass on the small slope below them. After that, it will be the weekend, and my sister will come back from climbing a mountain road of more than ten kilometers, and bring Xiao Song Song to play together.They may go to the forests, meadows, small streams, and big rocks that he has been to, pass the cemetery that must be passed, and go home to drink mountain spring water when they are thirsty, and drink a bowl of porridge when they are hungry. Let's all miss Fangge far away from the mountains...

Fangge is looking forward to the final exam soon, and he will be picked up after the exam. Xiaoge has been very happy in the past few days. Although he didn’t show it in front of his grandparents, the river, trees, and hillsides on the way to school are very happy. They all heard the song he hummed, it was a familiar song, "Counting Ducks", when I saw my brother, I must sing it to him.

On the day after the exam, Fangge went home and packed his luggage. When he came, the bag of clothes his mother packed for him was kept in the room where he slept on the second floor, lying alone in the corner. Fangge would go there to get out the laundry if he wanted to change it, and he could always put the clean clothes back in time.Where can I find such an obedient child!The children in the whole village are not as good as I am.Xiao Fangge thought secretly in his heart.He would run to the top of the building and look into the distance more than a dozen times a day to see if there were people he was familiar with on the winding dirt road.

"You're a worthless little thing, still rushing to other people's houses. They don't want you~" The little aunt looked at his happy little figure, and couldn't help but sneered.Fangge heard it, paused, went downstairs and took the whole schoolbag to the roof.The sight here is good, and it's warm. Without those people, even the air is much better.

One day, he was lying on the edge of the roof of the building doing his homework, when the cry of a child and the loud voice of his aunt came from downstairs: "Fangge, come down for me, did you hear your brother crying? I know I'm lazy every day." Fang Ge curled his lips and muttered secretly: "Have I eaten your rice? Hagsha!" Just as he was about to pack his textbooks and go downstairs, he suddenly heard "chug chug" from afar. ", his heart began to beat wildly, and the corners of his mouth began to turn up, as if he had the ability to predict. He was sure that the tractor would stop in front of the parasol forest, and a man would get off the tractor, and this man would definitely It's his dad.He grabbed the handrail on the roof and stood on tiptoe vigorously, stretching his neck and looking into the distance.At this time, the sun was about to set, and the golden warm sun sprinkled on the earth, making everything softer.As he expected, he heard the tractor stopped on the other side of the river, then started to move forward again. He vaguely saw a figure shaking in the sycamore forest, and then a man came out of the forest and stepped on the road. Small stone pier across the river.Fang Ge grinned, and the book in his hand was clenched into a big crease.When the figure of the man came up from the embankment step by step, Fang Ge opened his schoolbag and threw the book in, turned around and ran downstairs quickly, when he passed by his aunt, he didn't care what the woman said , ran straight to the room, grabbed the schoolbag, picked up the bag of clothes he packed, and rushed to the first floor.When he ran to the stairs, he could already hear his grandmother calling out to the man. He stabilized his body, hid his luggage behind him, and poked out half of his head.

"Fang Ge, Dad is here to pick you up!" The man saw Fang Ge, waved to him, and smiled wrinkled all over his face.Grandma turned around and glanced at him, and said, "Pack up your things quickly if you're going." He ran upstairs "thump-thump-thump," and ran a few steps to the room on purpose, then ran downstairs in a hurry, crossed the lobby and bumped into him. into Dad's arms.He hugged his father's thigh tightly and let out a low sob.

"What's the matter, Ge Ge?" Dad bent down and asked softly, stroking Fang Ge's head with both hands.

"No," Fang Ge shook his head, "You're finally here, Dad, I'm so happy."

There was still a long way to go home, grandma said politely that she wanted to keep the man for dinner, but the man declined with a smile, took Fangge's luggage, and led him away.Although they had to walk at night, both father and son were very happy, and their steps were much lighter.They took a ride all the way to the foot of the mountain where they went home, and walked on the mountain road home in the gray light.

"Everyone misses you very much, Ge Ge!" Dad carefully protected him behind Fang Ge. It was still the steep slope, and the nearly vertical slope made Fang Ge gasp and gasp.

"I know Dad, I know it, I dreamed that you were thinking of me!" Fang Ge smiled and looked back at Dad, "How are Mom and the others doing?"

"Your mother fell ill after you left, and she lay on the bed for more than a month, and my younger brother cried every day to find you." Dad paused, "Dad almost couldn't hold back and brought you back."

Xiao Fangge choked up, tears streaming down his face, "Dad, I miss you too, very, very much!"

"Good boy, don't cry, it's easy to catch cold when the mountain wind blows into your mouth." Dad hugged Fang Ge, "How are they treating you?"

"No, they don't like me, they talk about me every day." Xiaoge wiped away his tears, obediently tried to stop crying, raised his feet and continued to climb.

"Oh, sorry for you, child!"

It was cold in the mountains in winter, but they still sweated out of climbing, and the moon above their heads illuminated their way home.Xiao Fangge walked quietly along the way, with his father behind him, he was not afraid at all.You can see their village through another mountain depression. Dad followed Fangge silently with a flashlight, crossed the first step of field ridge, and then crossed the first step of field ridge. Poe, Fangge used to take his younger brother to herd sheep here.Now, he saw the lonely incandescent lamp in the front hall of their house, emitting an extremely warm light in the mountains in the middle of the night.Under the lamp, a woman was knitting a sweater sitting on a wooden stool against the wall.They are usually reluctant to turn on the lights. There are several kerosene lamps at home, and they usually use that at night.

"Mom! Mom!" Xiao Fangge spread his legs and ran quickly across the field, towards the lamp.

"Ouch, Ge Ge, mother's darling, you are finally back!" The woman put down the knitting thread in her hand and shook when she stood up, Fang Ge hurried over to support her mother.

"Oh, let mom see, why are you so thin, it's hard for you and the child." Then he hugged Fangge tightly into his arms.Yuan Dashan extinguished the flashlight and patted his wife on the shoulder, "Why are you sitting here all this time? What should you do if you're sick? The child is back, take him to bed quickly, he's been walking for a long time, he should be tired."

He was indeed tired. When he was sleeping, Fangge hugged his mother's waist tightly, buried his face in her arms, and slept soundly.In the middle of the night, Xiao Fangge felt a pair of small hands gently stretched out and wrapped around his waist, and a small head on his back gently arched his back.It's the younger brother, Fangge thought with a grin in his dream.
