Rebirth He Yuzhu stays away from troubles

The setting sun used its faint light to cover the earth with a thin layer of golden gauze. At this time, the village was filled with the smell of fireworks, children were playing in the open space, the elderly were holding their pipes and taking a puff from time to time, and the aunts and grandmas were chatting casually.

As soon as Jia Zhang stepped into the entrance of the village where the Jia family lived, it seemed as if all her worries and troubles were soothed by this quiet and peaceful village. As the cart moved into the village, old acquaintances who knew Jia Zhang kept greeting her. Jia Zhang's originally confused, helpless, empty and cold heart gradually became lively and confident.

People in those days were generally simple and kind. "Wo N'er" felt pity for the lonely old man and child. He pushed the cart carefully and steadily on the road, fearing that the grandchildren would be shaken. When he arrived at the old house of the Jia family, he was busy unloading the large and small bags. Jia Zhang, who had experienced so much helplessness in life, was now more open-minded. Seeing that "Wo N'er" was so thoughtful, she gave "Wo N'er" a few cents more before parting.

Jia Zhang was busy cleaning up the house, preparing to cook something to eat after cleaning up the house. Bang Geng was just as noisy as he was on the road, shouting that he wanted to go back to Sijiu City, to play with Xiaodang and Huaihua, and to do some sneaky things...

Just when Jia Zhang was in a state of panic, old Jia's cousin, the very capable Grandpa Jia Nineteen, came with his three sons and two daughters-in-law.

"Sister-in-law, you're back with the stick! I asked a few boys to bring their wives to help you clean up the house." The voice came before the person appeared. Jia Shijiu spoke loudly to the room with full energy.

Hearing this, Jia Zhang left Banggeng, who was sitting on the ground and throwing a tantrum, and went out of the house. When she saw the newcomers, she felt that Jia Shijiu's daughter-in-law was missing, so she asked politely, "Grandpa Banggeng, you are too polite. Where is your daughter-in-law?"

"Sister-in-law, she knows you are back. She was left at home to clean up dinner. I specially prepared more dishes for tonight. She will help you clean up the house later and then we can go back to eat together!" Jia Shijiu explained enthusiastically.

There is strength in numbers. The old house of the Jia family was soon tidied up. After Jia Zhang made the bed, she took Banggeng to Jia Nineteen's house. Along the way, Banggeng relied on his limited memory to look for Jia Ergou and Jia Gousheng, and then to look for his old brother Niu. Unfortunately, Banggeng was told by his grandfather Nineteen that Jia Ergou and Jia Gousheng were both 14-15 years old and had already worked in the countryside to earn work points. They were no longer the children who had played with Banggeng. The old oxen raised in the village had been sold by the village because they were too old to plow the land.

Banggeng's needs were not met, so he was coaxed by Jia Zhang to go to Jia Shijiu's house unwillingly. It was an ordinary village house with ordinary shabby tables and chairs, and there were no friends of the same age as Banggeng. However, the fried grasshoppers, fried snails, and fried river fish on Jia Shijiu's dining table, dishes that could not be seen in the old city, completely attracted Banggeng, and he enjoyed eating the snails all the time.

Seeing Banggeng arrive at his home and quietly eat dinner there, Jia Shijiu happily chatted with Jia Zhang: "Sister-in-law, it's only in the past two years that every household has had a better harvest. In previous years, you couldn't find these few dishes on the table."

"His grandfather Nineteen, yes! Life is not easy these days!" After replying, Jia Zhang's eyes were moist and she was in a daze, as if Jia Nineteen's words brought back memories of the past.

Seeing that the scene was a bit awkward, Jia Shijiu's daughters-in-law started to greet each other warmly from the sidelines. Everyone was talking about the gossips of the village in a lively and cheerful mood. Banggeng's mouth never stopped. He ate grasshoppers with relish and chewed snails non-stop.

There was no conversation that night. Bang Geng got up early in the morning and ran to the village without eating breakfast. He didn't understand what the old cow meant by being sold, so he wanted to play with it. The morning sun gently sprinkled on the fields. There was a calf tied under the old elm tree at the village head. Bang Geng curiously circled around the calf and murmured to himself: "This cow, how come it has become so small..."

Just as Banggeng was talking to himself around the calf, a teenage girl came over from afar. She walked slowly with a cane and approached the old elm tree. The girl asked in confusion, "What do you want to do? Why are you circling around the calf?"

The girl's question interrupted Bang Geng's observation of the calf. He replied angrily, "I want to play with the cow, but it doesn't recognize me. Who are you? Why do you care?"

"My name is Shi Meixiang. I'm the granddaughter picked up by the old widower Mr. Shi at the village entrance. The production team allowed me to graze this cow." Shi Meixiang usually has little contact with people, so when faced with Banggeng's question, she answered timidly and honestly.

After listening to the other party's answer, Banggeng tilted his neck and said curiously, "Shit sister, Shit sister..." Then, he stared at the wooden crutch under Shi Meixiang's arm with curiosity and said, "Shit sister, can you let me play with the wooden stick in your hand?"

"My name is Shi Meixiang, Shi~Mei~Xiang. This is a crutch. I had polio when I was a child, and the muscles in one of my legs atrophied. I can't walk properly. Without this crutch, I would fall, so I can't give it to you to play with." Usually, except for her grandfather, few people talk to her properly. When someone interacted with her, Shi Meixiang took the opportunity to explain.

"Shit sister, I have two younger sisters, both of them are crippled, similar to you. I will be your brother in the future." Bang Geng looked at Shi Meixiang in front of him, thought of his two sisters, and made a random request.

"I'm over 13 years old. How old are you? What's your name? I don't even know it, and you want to be my brother." Shi Meixiang looked at Banggeng, who was almost as tall as her, and replied unconvinced.

"Shit sister, I'm 12 years old this year! My name is Banggeng, which means the best and strongest root of the Jia family. Isn't it awesome!" Banggeng said proudly with his neck tilted.

"What's wrong with your brain! You are only 12 years old. I am older than you. Call me sister from now on, okay?" Shi Meixiang corrected her in a serious manner.

"Shit sister, can I play with you today?" Banggeng's brain was short-circuited, so he couldn't understand so many things. Anyway, Shi Meixiang said hers and Banggeng said his own.

"Okay! I'm going to herd cattle and cut grass. Do you want to come with me?" Shi Meixiang said indifferently. She didn't believe that anyone would follow her to do hard labor and sweat.

"Shit sister, let's go now." Seeing that Shi Meixiang was willing to play with him, Banggeng urged her happily. He hadn't found a playmate this time. Most of the friends who used to play with him had gone to work in the fields. Even if they came to his house, they wouldn't play with him.

For the whole morning, Banggeng helped Shi Meixiang herd cattle and cut grass, and stayed around Shi Meixiang tirelessly. If it had not been lunch time and Shi Meixiang urged Banggeng to go home for lunch, he would have refused to leave.

"Meixiang, this is the Jia family's treasure in the old city. They rely on food supplies, so he is very valuable. Don't take him around." Grandpa Shi looked at Banggeng who followed his granddaughter home, and said to Shi Meixiang with concern in his heart.

"Grandpa, I understand." Shi Meixiang responded obediently, but she was thinking in her heart, "Is this joke really that powerful?"

Banggeng hurriedly finished his meal and ran out to play. Jia Zhangshi was not worried, after all, everyone in this village was related. Banggeng left home and ran straight to the home of the old widower Shi Daye at the village entrance. When he saw the calf was still there, he shouted at the door: "Shit sister, go out to play. Shit sister..."

Shi Meixiang was urged by Banggeng outside the house, so she couldn't help but eat faster. Grandpa Shi looked at his granddaughter and reminded her worriedly: "Meixiang, you will be 14 in a few months, and it won't be long before you have to get married. Banggeng is crying out loud, after all, there are differences between men and women, don't delay yourself."

Girls mature early after all. Shi Meixiang listened to her grandfather's advice and nodded seriously. She also made up her mind, "When I go out, I will tell him not to come to me again."

Bang Geng waited anxiously outside the house, and he felt that time was so long. As soon as Shi Meixiang came out of the door, she advised Bang Geng seriously: "Bang Geng, you are a man, and shouting at my door will affect my reputation. I still have to get married. So, don't come to me in the future."

When Bang Geng saw Shi Meixiang chasing him away, his slow brain immediately became confused and he babbled, "Shit sister, marry me if you want to. I want you to play with me every day."

"You're not lying? If you're not lying, let's pinky promise." Shi Meixiang confirmed with joy.

"We'll make a pinky promise and never change it for a hundred years. Whoever changes will be a puppy." Bang Geng clumsily cooperated with Shi Meixiang in making the pinky promise and swore the oath very seriously.

From then on, every sunrise and sunset, Banggeng would always appear beside Shi Meixiang, and she would hear Banggeng's laughter; whenever Shi Meixiang was unhappy, Banggeng would yell at her, "Shit sister, I will marry you when I grow up..."
