Crossing the green wheat ears

It was the first month of the month, and the weather had turned warm, but there was another heavy snowfall.This spring snow fell heavily. When I got up and opened the door in the morning, the door was covered by snow. The area in the field that had been sunburned and exposed was covered with snow, and the air smelled of winter again. .

When they got up together in the morning, the old man and Xi Mingwen took the broom to sweep the snow, and cleaned the path from the house door to the gate, the eaves of the main house and the area leading to the main road outside the gate, otherwise they would wait for the sun to come up. Sun, as soon as people leave, the snow will melt, and it will become very muddy, with mud everywhere.

Xiyuan Niang made breakfast, and called the old man several times before entering the house with Xi Mingwen. Both of them were people who hated work, and they were always thinking about it if they didn't finish their work.

After dinner, grandpa and Xi Mingwen continued to sweep the snow, and wanted to sweep all the snow in the yard together and transport it out.Today is the "rest day", Xiyuan didn't teach the children lessons, Wei Cheng and Xi Wei, after practicing boxing with Cheng Yi early in the morning, they ran to the yard to help grandpa and old man sweep the snow, no matter how young they were, But they don't hide their secrets when they work, and the two of them go out to transport snow with their earrings.Xi Mingwen and the old man were afraid of tiring the children, so they would decorate less every time, but the little ones were still not happy, and kept calling for more decorations and more decorations, treating work as if it were play.

Seeing how sensible the grandchildren are, the old man was so happy that he kept muttering, "This silly boy, this silly boy."

Seeing the bustle, Xiyuan didn't think it was cold anymore, so he ran out to lift the snow with his younger brothers, and piled all the snow in the yard on the southwest corner outside the wall of his house.The three brothers ran and stopped, sweating from busy work.

On the spur of the moment, Xiyuan took a shovel to pat down the piled snow, and then made a big snowball on the snowdrift. He ran to the house and brought a red pepper and two black kidney beans as nose and eyes. A big snowman was made, and Wei Chengxiwei also took a small shovel and repaired the snowman with his brother to make it more like that.

After the big snowman was built, the snow was transported, and the remaining snow was piled into two small snowmen. The three snowmen were next to each other, just like the three brothers.Xi Wei also used a stick to write names on the snowmen, one for the eldest brother, one for the second brother, and one for him.

After Xue cleaned up, Xiyuan led Wei Cheng and Xi Wei to the east wing to practice archery.Xiyuan bought bows and arrows for the two of them last year. Later, because the family was busy, they didn't lead them to practice. After Cheng Yi taught a few children how to box and kick, Wei Cheng took a small bow and asked Cheng Yi how to bend a bow and shoot an arrow. Give some pointers.

I don't know if it's because of the basics of slingshot or because of the natural talent. Cheng Yi didn't teach it for a long time, but Wei Chenggong has mastered the essentials, and his small arrows are quite accurate, but his small bow doesn't shoot very far, which is also very Surprised by Cheng Yi, he patted Wei Cheng on the head and asked him to practice hard, so that he might not be able to become a marksman in the future.

Winter is already cold, and the bow is cold when you take it outside, so it is difficult to open it, so Xiyuan cleaned up an empty and useless wing room in his house, asked his father to build a stove in it, and put the original sandbags It is also hung in this room and arranged as a martial arts training ground.

Xiyuan found a wooden board, imitated the target used in modern gun shooting, and drew a few circles on it. If it's okay, let Wei Cheng and Xi Wei shoot on the target while practicing arrows, and see who can shoot accurately.Now Wei Cheng can easily shoot into the seventh circle, and he is working hard to advance to the sixth.

Compared with Wei Cheng, Xi Wei is much worse, and he will be able to shoot into the circle, but he is not discouraged, he also practiced with Wei Cheng when he practiced.Xiyuan didn't put pressure on the two younger brothers, and asked them to play this as a game.So in the eyes of Xi Wei and Wei Cheng, the daily practice of archery is, well, the time for playing.

Sometimes Xiyuan saw his two younger brothers playing well, and he also took the bow with great interest, intending to show off his might, but after shooting a few times, it was not as good as Xiwei, the place where the arrow hit was half a meter away from the target , which made Xi Wei and Wei Cheng giggle, and ran over to teach him, Xi Yuan felt that the image he had always maintained as a strong brother collapsed in an instant, and he returned to the main room and ate three popsicles to comfort himself Wounded old heart.

The two children managed to catch their elder brother's weaknesses, so they were merciless in teasing them. Today they practiced for a while, and encouraged their elder brother to shoot arrows. Xiyuan lived up to expectations, and shot thousands of miles away from the target. Standing up, Wei Cheng next to him also happily grinned behind his ears.

Xiyuan is still not angry, so he doesn't believe it, why can't he keep up with the two little kids?So with an arrow to the left and an arrow to the right, Wei Cheng happily asked his brother if he needed to move the target forward. Xi Yuan kicked Wei Cheng's ass, but he didn't kick it. Wei Cheng's current The reaction was very quick. Seeing his brother's foot coming, he immediately turned to the side, and Xiyuan's foot was gone. Because he didn't grasp it well, Xiyuan immediately squatted on his buttocks.

Xiyuan sat on the ground and began to set up his brother's score. No matter how much Xi Wei and Wei Cheng pulled him, he refused to get up. Later, one of the two children held his brother's arm and carried it on his back, and the other pushed his brother's butt from behind. Only then did he help Xiyuan up.Xiyuan grabbed the two younger brothers and scratched their armpits. Xi Wei and Wei Cheng laughed so loudly that they could hoist the roof.The brothers were making a fuss in the wing room, when they heard the tiger's head barking in the yard.

Although the tiger head is not as smart as Mao Doujiao, it also knows people who come and go frequently at home. When people enter the courtyard, it looks up and ignores them if they are acquaintances. He will call out only those who want to.

Xiyuan and his two younger brothers were also curious about who came, so they opened the door of the wing room and looked towards the gate. At the courtyard gate, Xi Mingwen was talking to two strangers.

Although the two of them were allowed to enter the hospital in the end, Xi Mingwen's expression was not very good, and he was not as cheerful as he would treat relatives and friends.

Xiyuan was wondering who came and what was going on at his house, but Wei Cheng next to him grabbed his brother's lapel tightly. Xiyuan looked at Wei Cheng and almost knew who was coming.

"Oh, this is our son, why are you so tall and promising, don't you know your aunt?" The young woman saw Wei Cheng standing at the door of the wing room, and pulled the older woman's lapel , the two of them came in front of the three brothers Xiyuan.

"Chengzi? It's really our Chengzi. You really want to kill grandma." The old woman stretched out her hand to hug Wei Cheng, but Wei Cheng didn't let her hug him. With only one eye, he looked at the two men timidly.

"Hey, Chengzi doesn't know grandma anymore!" The old woman wiped her eyes with her cuff, looking very sad.

"Who are you?" The grandma and Niang Xiyuan in the room saw that there were two women entering the yard, then went straight to their own children and hurried out of the room.

"Old sister, I'm grandma Chengzi. I only pity my girl, so I left Chengzi alone. I said I didn't have time to come and see it. It's not too late for the new year. When I have free time, the heavy snow throws it away. The sky is coming, I want to be a son, I can't think about it, I just think about how the child is doing now." Wei Cheng's grandma continued to wipe her tears with her hands, and his aunt next to her also seemed sad, and wiped her eyes .

"We have a good marriage, so you don't have to worry about it. Come on, let's go in." The old lady hurried to let in when she heard that she was from Wei Cheng's grandma's family.

Xiyuan led the two younger ones into the house, Wei Cheng grabbed his brother's clothes and kept them close, Xiyuan clapped his hands and told him in a low voice that he was fine, Wei Cheng nodded to his brother, but as soon as he entered the room , or hid behind his brother, no matter how the adults greeted or dragged him, he would not come out.

The family members will not make things difficult for him, seeing Wei Cheng's reaction is just a show.Grandma Wei Cheng looked unbearable, crying and wiping away her tears, "How long has it been since Cheng Zi doesn't even know grandma? Cheng Zi, do you still remember going to grandma's house? Didn't grandma give you food back, did you forget?"

Grandma looked at Wei Cheng expectantly, but Wei Cheng hid behind Xi Yuan and said nothing.When the grandma came, she had to let her see the child, so Xiyuan didn't take Wei Cheng away.

"Grandmother Chengzi, don't blame the child for not remembering. Children have a poor memory. After a long time, they will forget it. Since your daughter got married, I haven't seen how you have been to your daughter's house, let alone Chengzi. Even if adults saw it, they wouldn’t recognize it out of the blue.” The old lady didn’t like the way Wei Cheng’s grandmother clung to Wei Cheng, so she beat her up with words.

"Old sister, do you think I can take care of myself? My daughter is my own daughter, even Chengzi, and my own grandson. They are all meat that fell from my body. When I think of Chengzi's mother, I... "

"Auntie, don't mention things that are in the past. Now Chengzi lives very well in my house." Mother Xiyuan heard that she wanted to mention Wei Cheng's mother, so she quickly diverted the conversation.

"That's right, my daughter's life is miserable. You said that my daughter was in the village at that time, who would not agree with her, but she met such a worthless second child Wei."

"Far away, take Chengzi to pour a bowl of hot water for his aunt and aunt." Grandma saw that Wei Cheng's aunt was still focused on mentioning Wei Chengniang, so she sent Xiyuan and Wei Cheng out.

"Hey, grandma, let's go pour water." Xiyuan led Wei Cheng out, and Xi Wei followed. Xiyuan took two bowls from the kitchen and poured water, but he didn't lead Wei Cheng to go again. In the main room, let Xi Wei bring it in, and then let Xi Wei bring some melon seeds and peanuts left over from the Chinese New Year.

Xi Wei ran around again and again, and then ran to the main room to snuggle up to his mother like an ear god, to find out what the adults said, um, write it down when you hear it, so that you can learn from it for your brother .

Xiyuan led Wei Cheng into his room, then held Wei Cheng's face and asked him: "Chengzi, tell me the truth, are you scared?" Xiyuan didn't understand why Wei Cheng reacted like this today, A child who is not even afraid of beards, how can he be so timid when he sees his grandparents.

Xiyuan was worried here, but Wei Cheng chuckled, "Brother, I'm not afraid, I just don't want to talk to them."

Seeing that Wei Cheng became active again, with shining eyes, Xi Yuan's heart fell to the ground with a "plop", "You poor boy, you scared my brother to death." Xi Yuan patted Wei Cheng with his hand.

"Brother..." Wei Cheng patted his head, and hesitantly called out to his brother.

"Huh? What's the matter?" Xiyuan quickly turned into the image of a bosom brother again.

"Brother, is it wrong for you to say that I don't recognize them?" Wei Cheng looked at Xi Yuan with doubtful eyes.

"Then tell brother the reason why you don't want to admit it." Xiyuan sat on the kang with Wei Cheng in his arms, took a hazelnut that he had nothing to fry, and gave it to his brother to eat.

"I don't like them. At that time, they didn't let me eat. I ran to my uncle's house, but my uncle's house didn't give me anything. I couldn't stand the hunger, so I wanted to go to my grandma's house. After walking for a day, they left me. I stayed for one night, and drove me back the next day, saying that I was afraid that someone would come to their house to look for me." Wei Cheng became more and more wronged as he talked, his little eyes made Xi Yuan feel distressed.

"Is there anything for you to eat?" Xiyuan even forgot to grill the hazelnuts for Wei Cheng.

"I was given a bowl of corn porridge the night before, and corn bread for both of us the next day, and told me not to go there in the future."

"Just let you come back by yourself as a child? Your uncle didn't send them off?" Wei Cheng shook his head.

Xiyuan asked grandma where Wei Cheng's grandma's house was, and grandma said it was in a black blind shop fifteen miles away. A child ran fifteen miles to grandma's house and got such treatment!Xiyuan clenched his fists angrily.

"Brother, brother?" Wei Cheng looked at Xiyuan suspiciously, why didn't brother answer his question?

"Chengzi, you are our family now, and you don't have to look at other people's faces to live your life, so you can do what you think you should do. Listen?" Wei Cheng's eyes lit up again when he heard what his brother said, and he nodded greatly.

"Well, you will pretend that you don't know them from now on, don't care what they think or say, just talk to them if you like them, and ignore them if you don't like them, you know?"

"I know, brother, pick it up for me quickly, this hazelnut is big." Wei Cheng picked a big hazelnut and handed it to Xiyuan. Usually, he and Xi Wei pick it up by themselves. It's rare for my brother to be diligent, so he has to be careful enjoy it.

"He's big-hearted!" Xiyuan gave Wei Cheng a helpless look, but, well, such a mentality is indeed good, it seems that Wei Cheng really put aside the previous things and didn't take it to heart at all.
