life under the pen of rebirth

After my grandmother passed away, she was buried in the cemetery in the village. There was an orchard planted there, and the surrounding environment was not bad.

After Hailin's mother and son were inevitably silent for a while, they still had to live their lives as usual.

When they were promoted to the fourth grade, Hailin and his class were transferred to another school in another village. After the class was divided, the classmates they knew before were separated, but they were still in the same class as Li Longjun and Sun Qiang, and they took care of each other.

Hailin rides bicycles to and from school with them every day. He arrives at school before six o'clock in the morning, and leaves school at 04:30 in the afternoon. He doesn't go home at noon. Pickles for [-] cents, two steamed buns for [-] cents will be enough.

At that time, Haimu suddenly started to believe in Buddhism. She bought a Bodhisattva and placed it in the house as an offering, offering incense every day, but she never asked for anything. This incident originated from a dream Haimu had.

Hailin's family raises chickens, and they buy a group of chicks to raise when they grow watermelons in spring. Watermelons are grown in cotton fields.When the cotton grows taller and the watermelon begins to bloom, the chickens that grow up will be put in the melon field to eat insects and grass. Basically, there is no need to feed them, and there are still few insects in the field. When the watermelon is sold, the chickens will grow up Yes, except for a few for the Chinese New Year, the rest are sold.

In the second year after grandma's death, Hailin's family started to buy chicks as usual. When they sold chickens in autumn, they couldn't catch one chicken.In fact, this is just a common thing. If you can't catch it, you can save it for the New Year, butcher it and eat it yourself. But this is the dream that Haimu had.

Mother Hai dreamed of her grandma that night, and the old man said that she was coming to see her daughter. Mother Hai invited her mother to sit on the kang, and went out to fetch firewood and cook for grandma. But when she came back, grandma on the kang was gone. Lying on the uncatchable chicken, the mother of the sea woke up suddenly.

Most coincidentally, the chicken disappeared the next day and could not be found. Since then, Haimu has decided to believe in Buddhism.In fact, Hailin understands that if Haimu did this, it might not be the reason why he used Dad Hai to speak twice.

But Hai Lin didn't object, sometimes it's not a bad thing for people to have faith!

Hailin also believes in ghosts and gods. China is a culture passed down by gods.To some extent, he feels that the government's so-called atheism is actually just a political means, and Maoism may not be a man-made belief.

There are few in cities, but there are actually many such legends in rural areas that cannot be explained by science.

In the early days, there was such a thing in the neighboring village. There was a mill, and every night there was a big civet cat to grind the mill. At first, the family didn’t know what was going on, but they saw that the mill was turned well when they went there in the morning. So I made an appointment to see it at night, but I saw the raccoon cat, maybe it was scared, and it was electrocuted to death.Later, I found out that the civet cat was just repaying a kindness. The family had less food before, and it stole it, so I came back to repay the kindness.Not long after this incident, the family members died one after another due to various reasons.

There was also a snake in someone's house, and it was okay to drive it away, but the family shoveled the snake to death with a shovel, and then this person had a car accident, and several pieces of his body were broken, and the snake was shoveled , this person broke a few places.

For example, there are many such things, and most of them are well-founded, because it is in the neighboring village, and many people know about it, so you cannot believe it.Fortunately, Hai Lin has no shame in his heart. Although he is in awe of ghosts and gods, he will not put much energy on it.

When Hailin was promoted to the fourth grade, his eldest brother Haiqi was also in the third grade. At this time, the five-year system was still in place, and the sixth grade was the first grade.But within a few days of going there, Haiqi suddenly came back and said he couldn't go to school for some reason.

In fact, Hai Lin knew about this. In his previous life, Hai Qi dropped out of junior high school, but this time he really didn't expect to follow the old path.

"You're not bad at studying, why don't you go to school?!"

Hai Lin leaned against the door frame, looking expressionlessly at Hai Qi who was sitting on the kang.

Yes, Haiqi did not study well in his previous life, and he often played truant with the children in the village, but this time with Hailin, with his more or less help, Haiqi's grades were actually quite good. Not too absent from class, so he doesn't understand.

"Speak up! Why? With your grades, you should be able to get into high school!?"

Hai Qi lowered his head, not knowing what he was thinking.

"Go if you can, the family will pay you the tuition fee." Haimu patted Haiqi on the shoulder.

"What about getting into high school? Will my family still have so much money to pay for tuition?" Haiqi finally raised his head and looked at Haimu. After studying, he can also help the family, Hai Lin has a good brain, he will definitely be admitted to university..."

"Then I'll drop out of school, you go!" Hai Lin frowned. It's the same if he doesn't go to school. Although he didn't go to college in his previous life, he went to a computer school and has a skill in his hand. He can find a job even if he is hungry.

"You quit school? What can you do if you quit school?" Hai Qi sneered, "You don't even want to be a child worker! How can you help in the field at home?"

Hai Lin is silent, he is only 11 years old, no one will let him go to work.

"Lin, actually I don't like going to school at all!" Hai Qi looked at Hai Lin seriously, "I can't hold so many things in my mind, I feel irritable when I recite the text, and I can't turn the corner when I calculate, so I'm serious. I don’t want to do it anymore, otherwise it’s a waste of money, and it’s really useless to me! People like me just work hard..."

Hai Lin's eyes felt dry and he didn't know what to say.He knew that what Haiqi said was true, but he was only a boy of fifteen or sixteen years old, how could he really be willing to work to support his family compared to the leisurely life in school? !He just saw the difficulty of Haimu at home, and he didn't want Haimu to be so tired.

This night, Hailin and Haiqi brothers lay face to face on the kang and chatted all night, about the past and the future.

A few days later, Haiqi followed an uncle in the village to work in the city.When I came back after a while, I could see that he had lost a lot of weight, but he became more and more mature, gradually becoming like the responsible elder brother in his previous life.

When Hailin was studying at home, he also tried his best to help Haimu with some farm work.In summer, I would get up at three or four o'clock in the morning and have a meal, and then go to the field with jellyfish to weed and catch insects. I would ride my bicycle to school until six o'clock; sometimes I would go to the field to mow the horses. Bale the grass, and then come back and ride to school.

Another year passed, and Hai Lin was about to enter the fifth grade, and the class began to be divided into different classes again.
