Shao Nian

In the summer of the last year of the [-]th century, the sky in northern Shaanxi changed from the usual big yellow sand wind to a sunny day, and the dry air didn't even feel the slightest bit of water vapor.

As a little boy over two years old, Shao Bei was standing at the entrance of the alley expecting to see through, listening to the chug of the motorcycle getting closer and closer.

The little kid was wearing crotch pants, grinning and licking the popsicle in his hand. There were two small pockets on his top, which were bulging full of candies wrapped in colorful plastic paper.

The familiar blue motorcycle turned from the alley to the door of the house. Shao Bei lowered his head and licked the popsicle again, but was about to lift his foot when he was stopped by another sound of the motorcycle turning off at the door.

Shao Bei turned his head to look over, past the face of the strange uncle in front of him, he was attracted by the beautiful child in his arms instead.

"Old Yu, this is my son." Shao Bei's father got off the blue motorcycle and pointed at Shao Bei.

Yu Xiao smiled and nodded, put the little baby in his arms on the ground with his hands together.

After touching Shao Bei's head, he pulled Yu Chongnan who was hiding behind him: "Nan Nan, this is your elder brother Shao Bei."

Yu Chongnan kept hiding behind his father's legs with his big eyes open, but his small eyes kept staring at the popsicle in Shao Bei's hand.

Shao Bei looked at Yu Chongnan, then at Yu Xiao, and finally at his father. He turned his gaze several times, and finally stayed on Yu Chongnan's face, especially those beautiful eyes.

"Beibei, this is Uncle Yu, and this is Brother Chongnan who is a hundred days younger than you." Shao Feng said with a smile.

Shao Bei nodded, and handed the popsicle in front of Yu Chongnan, but he underestimated the length of his arm too much, so he directly poked Yu Chongnan's face.

Shocked by the sudden coldness, Yu Chongnan instantly wrinkled his pretty face, his mouth pursed as if he was going to cry.

Before they could take any emergency measures, Yu Chongnan really started dripping cat urine.

Shao Bei was a little unprepared for the kid he had just met crying, so he could only take out the candy in his pocket to coax this "kid" he had just met.

Yu Xiao hugged his son in his arms, wiped away his tears and said, "I cried for my mother all the way, but now I can't hold it anymore." After speaking, he shook his head helplessly, and distress flashed in his eyes.

In this era, Shaobei's parents' parents' generation is the root of the turbulent years. His grandparents' names, birthdays, and birth dates are all linked to the interweaving and replacement of the Chinese era.

Grandparents and grandparents responded to the call. A large number of people is strength. Or maybe in a turbulent year, they can only survive on the warmth brought by the blood family. I am afraid that the number of children born can't be counted with two hands.

But just two generations later, it came to Shao Bei's head. The state's policy of controlling the population made Shao Bei the baby bump of the whole family, enjoying all the love and hope of the four elders and a pair of parents.

Shaobei's only son, but Chongnan is the old boy in the family, he is considered a "black household", and he is the head of the original household registration.It is his elder brother who is on the same level as his parents, and he is aboveboard. Afterwards, the work unit's "three investigations" and the "family photos" taken have nothing to do with him, and have nothing to do with him.

In order to avoid family planning spot checks, his father deliberately ran to this small place in northern Shaanxi to hide, and his mother took his brother to hide on the other side.

This hiding has been going on for several years, and from this inadvertent day, Shao Bei has been followed by a little tail.

The two families live in the same courtyard, and the external publicity is the same. Are the two children a pair, will they have children, or a pair of fat boys, raising a child to look after the old, earning more.

Beibei is the older brother, and Nannan is the younger brother, you know they are a family just by looking at the name!

When I was a child, the days passed quickly, but it was my own eating, drinking and having fun that kept the little kid in my heart.

"Nannan." Shao Bei grinned, exposing his missing teeth and leaking gums, squatting and watching Chongnan walk over.

"What are you playing?" Chongnan tilted his head and asked, walking over on the muddy ground.

Shao Bei blinked, stretched out his dark hand and pointed at him: "Come here, come here and I'll tell you!"

Chongnan walked over obediently, stood next to him and just squatted down, Shaobei chuckled, and struck towards his nose with his muddy fingers.

Before Chongnan could react, his whole fair face was completely like a mud monkey.

"Hahahahahaha..." Shao Bei looked up and laughed loudly, his center of gravity was thrown back, his hands slid and slipped for a while, and he couldn't support himself for a while, his joy turned into sadness, he rubbed the soles of his feet and sat down on his buttocks, the mudflat under his feet splashed and became muddy The faces of two "monkeys".

"Pfft—" Shao Bei stuck out his tongue vigorously, and mud splashed into his mouth, baring his teeth, it was unpalatable!

Chongnan rubbed his eyes silently, and a few of his long eyelashes were also rubbed off.

"The mud splashed in my eye sockets." Chongnan didn't feel annoyed, so he uttered these words slowly.

Shao Bei raised his right arm and wiped his face with the only clean part of his clothes, rubbing the corners of Chongnan's eyes with his little muddy paws.

"Let me see..." Shao Bei looked down for a long time, only seeing his red eyeballs from rubbing too hard.

The little mud paw didn't help much, instead it made Chongnan's face even dirtier, and a few eyelashes were pulled off.

Chongnan shook his head, blinked his eyes, and directly washed the things in his eye sockets with tears.

"Nannan, you seem to be crying like this..." Shao Bei continued to grin heartlessly.

Chongnan couldn't help but glared at him: "You're the one crying!"

Shao Bei continued to laugh, his eyes drifted back and forth to his knees.

The mud spots that had just been splashed on the clothes had already dried, Shao Bei stretched out his hand and began to paw the mud spots on his knees.

After a few clicks, my calf was a little numb, and I just sat down in the mud again, completely ignoring the increasingly wet corduroy pants.

"Nannan, let's make clay figurines, and I'll make you a Pikachu."

Chongnan didn't nod, but was a little suspicious: "Beibei, why are you pinching this? I want the praying mantis in "Black Cat Sheriff"."

Shao Bei: "..."

What did Chongnan do to have such a wonderful taste that can't be found in any corner?

Pinching, pinching, isn't he just a praying mantis? Who made him "brother"!

Two mud monkey children came home from playing with mud in the yard. As soon as they got their heads up, Shao's mother's roar of "shaking the earth and shaking the mountains" sounded.

However, no matter how much Shao's mother scolded, Shao Bei still had a smile on his face, turning his eyes wildly to look at the abstract "mantis" on the edge of the cement window sill at the door.

What's more, it's also made by myself, a small gift for Chongnan, no matter how ugly his own child is, he will look at him dearly.

Chongnan went back to the room next door, an old-style house with mound walls, the sound insulation is not very good, he can clearly hear Shao Ma's broken thoughts and Shao Bei's laughing and joking.

Only the rooms of two old and young men, one big and one small, were a little messy, and there was no bustling and warm room because of the presence of mother.

Yu Xiao came back and looked at Chongnan who was covered in mud, and then looked at the "abstract" thing on the table that was said to be a "mantis", and said nothing in silence.

Even if the two children have a good relationship and stick together, there will always be times when they go back to each house to find their own mothers. At this time, Chongnan sits on a small bench and chats silently while hugging his father's knee. Report on daily "work".
