Siheyuan: My Northeastern Farmhouse

Gu Weijun followed his father and sent Uncle Huang to the entrance of the alley. Uncle Huang pushed the bicycle and let out a sigh of relief. He took the lunch box from Gu Weijun's hand and said with a smile to Dad Gu: "Guohong, come to your yard and try to beat us." The mountains are so tiring!”

"And why do I feel that your yard has an indescribable... smell?" Uncle Huang smacked his lips, trying to find the right words.

"Feudal remnants!" Dad Gu answered with a smile.

"Yes! Yes! Yes! That's what it feels like!" Uncle Huang laughed when he heard this, "It hits the nail on the head!"

"Tell me, what's your kid's idea?"

"Haha!" Gu's father, Gu Guohong, laughed when he heard this and gave a thumbs up, "Political commissar, you can see thousands of miles away!"

"You idiot, you think I am Chairman Chiang Kai-shek! Say it quickly!"

"Political commissar," Dad Gu said in a serious voice in a low voice, "I joined the army in 46, was demobilized and returned to my hometown in 52, was called to Beijing by the chief in 54, and moved from the street clinic to the steel rolling mill in 56 and moved to this yard until now. "Dad Gu paused slightly,

"In 59 and 60, all the Soviets withdrew. In the past three years, we have had bad years and we have to pay back the Soviets' money! Our life is not easy!"

"But this year we have finally recovered. Two months ago, when you transferred the political commissar to the steel rolling mill, I guess the country will definitely arrange for the expansion of the steel rolling mill. Without the Soviets, we will not develop?"

"However, the steel rolling mill is, after all, a transformed enterprise from a public-private partnership, and the people's ideological level is still a bit weak, as you can see today."

"Our revolutionary road has a long way to go!" Uncle Huang looked solemn.

Dad Gu's tone became more relaxed, "So, doesn't this allow you to get closer to the masses?"

"Of course, I also have selfish motives. At the end of last year, I felt that the atmosphere in this courtyard was wrong. If you come, maybe you can deter this unhealthy trend!"

"What did the Chairman say? Going deep into the masses, relying on the masses, and mobilizing the masses are the only magic weapons for us Communists to win!"

"Haha, okay! Okay!" Uncle Huang Juikun smiled happily, "Based on your words, I will guarantee the associate degree at the end of this year!"

"Your boy is now a good political worker. Do you want to come over and help me?"

"Political Commissar, you also know that I am a traditional Chinese medicine practitioner. A few years ago, the chief helped me contact a teacher Lu Bingkui. Last year, he also helped me enter the University of Traditional Chinese Medicine to continue my studies." Dad Gu smiled wryly and spread his hands, "You think I can Did you live up to the chief’s expectations?”

"Haha, you're still such a naughty kid! But the medicinal wine you prepared is really overbearing. After drinking it, my legs and feet don't hurt on rainy days! I'll prepare a few more bottles someday and I'll give them away! Okay, that's it for today. I'll be here another day. At my house, call Zhu Guoli and the others and let's have a good drink together!" Uncle Huang turned around and patted Gu Weijun on the shoulder, "The army is good! Let's go!" He stepped on the car and quickly disappeared into the night.

Watching Uncle Huang go away, Dad Gu took out a cigarette and gave it to Gu Weijun. Gu Weijun took it with a smile and lit the match. The two men were strolling home while puffing on smoke. Gu's father said to Gu Weijun: "Don't take this matter to heart in the yard, you still have to take a long-term view!"

"I will stop reading if I don't want to read it after I graduate from junior high school, but I can't stop studying. I have to memorize the properties of medicines, Tangtou Song, and Four Hundred Flavors by heart. I also have to read the Yellow Emperor's Internal Classic, Treatise on Febrile Diseases, and Synopsis of the Golden Chamber. I also need to read the Compendium of Materia Medica and Pinhu Pulse Study. Turn it over properly.”

"Yeah!" Gu Weijun nodded, and then told his father what happened today.

After hearing this, Dad Gu nodded and chuckled, "Are you still thinking a lot now?"

"Okay, I'll make an appointment with Lao Yang and Lao Zhao in a few days to sit down and have a chat!"

After thinking for a while, he said, "Well, you should also read more about the Three Kingdoms and Mao Xuan!"

Put out the cigarette, "Let's go, don't keep your mother waiting."

On the other side of Zhao Chenggang's house, Zhao Dazhuang and his wife were lying on the kang. Zhao's mother was tossing and turning with sadness and couldn't sleep. "What's wrong?" Zhao's father got up and put on his clothes, "What's wrong with you?"

"Can I get you a cup of hot water?"

Zhao's mother told her about Tiezi's plan to transfer his work to Gu's mother in the afternoon, and finally added, "Lao Gu is very kind to our family. If it weren't for Lao Gu, my whole body would be paralyzed. Either that." Just transfer the work to Gu Ma. Anyway, I am too weak to go to work now? What will I do if I am just an iron child?" When she thought of her son, Zhao Ma felt worried and sighed.

Father Zhao pondered for a while and said to Mother Zhao: "You are wrong!"

"I'll arrange for the army to go to the police!"

"Go to sleep!"

Silent all night.

In this day and age, it is impossible not to go to bed early and get up early. The next day, Gu Weijun woke up at dawn and looked at the clock. At 6:10, Gu's mother was already busy next door. The younger brother on the right is sleeping soundly, and on the left is the screen that Gu's father bought from the second-hand market. Gu Weijun got up quietly, put on his clothes, pulled on his cloth shoes, said hello to Gu's mother, and went straight to the toilet. "Well, a good day starts with emptying yourself!"

When I got home, I immediately opened the door with my left hand, and the three-piece northeast courtyard was opened: pig pen, vegetable garden and breakfast.

After opening the door again, she was disgusted by Gu's mother again. She opened the door and pooped twice. Why didn't she poop twice...

Pretending to be ashamed, he lowered his head, picked up his toothbrush, towel and washbasin, covered his face and left.

In the pool in the middle courtyard, Auntie and Qin Huairu were laughing and talking about washing clothes. Gu Weijun joked, "Sister-in-law, your family has so much clothes to wash!"

Returning to the house again, Gu Weijun picked up a medical book and sat at the table by the window with Dad Gu to read.

The main theme of breakfast was vegetable dumplings, sweet potato porridge and pickles. Gu Weijun reluctantly ate one. He went back to the house and secretly took out the eggs and luncheon meat from his schoolbag to add to his brother's meal. After that, he put on his military water bottle and went out to meet Xiaoyu and Tiezi. .

It was still a grain station. Gu Weijun agreed with the brothers that they would take their time today and go to the river early in the afternoon to catch a fish and go to Director Wang's house.

Gu Weijun deliberately did not bring a cigarette today. During the break, he finally had the opportunity to test the "golden finger" on his left hand and opened the back door of the grain station.

Looking at the friendly Northeastern courtyard in front of him, Gu Weijun put his hands on his hips again, looked up to the sky and smiled, "I just asked, who else is there!"

“The world is so big, there’s no place you can’t go!”

After touching the rhubarb dog's head wrapped around his feet, Gu Weijun held his waist with one hand and jumped into the depth charge with high spirits! Pointing left and right, "Look, this is my kingdom!"

Suddenly, out of the corner of his eye, Gu Weijun spotted a mineral water bottle on the window sill outside the door! Pick it up, there is still about one-third of the water in it, shake it against the light, the water in the bottle has a faint golden light shining!

For a time, various words filled Gu Weijun's mind: "Reborn!" "Easy tendons and cleansed marrow!" "Instantly become an immortal!"

"Not to mention bath water, even foot washing water, I will definitely drink it!"

Gu Weijun carefully poured the bottle cap, "No one can stop me, I said so!" He raised his neck and did it! He tightened the bottle carefully, clucked his tongue, "It's tasteless!" and then waited carefully.

5 seconds, 10 seconds, 1 minute, Gu Weijun lit a cigarette and fell into deep self-doubt, "Is it the wrong way to open it?"

He took a long puff of the cigarette butt and crushed it under his feet, "Forget it, go back first and talk about it later!"

As soon as Gu Weijun put his left hand on the door handle, he felt his heart beat faster, "Boom boom boom!" His ears seemed to hear the sound of blood flowing faster, "Boom boom boom!" The skin of his body began to heat up. He lowered his head and looked at his left arm. Veins and blood vessels bulge, and the skin gradually turns red!
