Rebirth Night Talk

Passing through the old old blocks, some old willow trees that had grown along the avenue for many years...have been shaved, and the dry ones were sawed off, and piled up on the side of the street waiting to be pulled away.It seems that the days when catkins were flying all over the sky will never come back.Zhao Xuejun likes the colorful world. He witnesses the changes and renews himself with the years.The whole nation is like giving birth, it will hurt and hurt again, but this change must be meaningful.

Min Shun hummed, gnawed on a string of mutton kebabs, and threw the iron rafters into the garbage dump after gnawing.Zhao Xuejun followed Min Shun.He was carrying a schoolbag, wearing a clean jacket, tight-fitting trousers, and sneakers.He looks like a good student.People on the street occasionally looked at the pair of teenagers, feeling like a wolf with a big tail hijacked a little sheep.

They bypassed the construction site together and came to an old residential house.This is the place where Peng Juan lives now. Cinder garbage is thrown everywhere without rules, and flies and bedbugs are rampant.Dirty poultry mingled with a shaved stray dog ​​foraging in a rubbish dump.Sewage has no rules, flowing freely everywhere...

Min Shun stopped, and after looking around, he bent down to pick up a few small stones, and threw them towards a courtyard.After a while, a woman from the small town roared and cursed in local dialect.Min Shun and Zhao Xuejun hid in the corner and waited.After a while, Peng Juan was wearing a big blouse, leg pants, and a pair of dirty plastic slippers, and slowly moved out with her hair covered.

A girl in the third grade of junior high school should not wear any cosmetics, but she has the fragrance of a fairy.They can pamper themselves because of their age.Living a simple life every day, worrying about eating too many varieties for fifty cents and being coquettish.They chatter casually, but they are not annoying. On their innocent cheeks, there should always be a kind of, forgive me, I am still young, I don't understand anything... special... the most beautiful time of life That temperament.

But now, the years have matured the girl, and Peng Juan's chest is so developed that even a big blouse can't cover up that smell...the smell from a mature woman.She kept her head down, watching her neighbors pointing and pointing all the way.Even taking Zhao Xuejun with him was as uncomfortable as being pricked with countless small needles by someone behind him.This feeling of being pointed out was more cruel to Zhao Xuejun, and at this moment, he felt sympathy from the bottom of his heart.

Ten minutes later, Zhao Xuejun and the others came to the side of the construction site and sat together on the neatly stacked cement slabs.

"Tell me, whose is it?" Min Shun went straight to the point.

Peng Juan shook her head and sobbed softly: "I don't even admit it."

Min Shun kicked the concrete slab angrily, and then, clutching his feet, jumped all over the ground, "F*ck, you don't know who? The pig's head was installed for you."

Peng Juan shook her head, squatted on the ground and hugged her shoulders.

"Anyway... anyway... I know it's not mine, but now they all say it's mine, grandma! Can you give me a way to survive? My mother can't be scared because of my brother, and she will go mad when she is scared. I Just a mother, let me go?!" Min Shun's voice was a little high, and he couldn't suppress his anger.

Peng Juan raised her swollen face, and the bruises left by her finger marks were clearly in sight, and the original pretty face was completely out of shape.

Min Shun didn't scold anymore, he bit his lower lip, sat aside, and looked at the other side of the construction site angrily.

"What did your father say?" Zhao Xuejun asked Peng Juan.

Peng Juan shook her head: "You beat me up, then left, told me to get the hell out, and I'm not allowed to call him dad in the future."

"Where's your mother?"

Mother is always a word that can touch a girl's heart, and Peng Juan cried even harder: "She gave me ten yuan and told me to leave quickly!"

Zhao Xuejun was helpless.

The sound of rapid urban construction and construction, bang!Bang!Bang!The sound came rhythmically from over there, and the three underage boys and girls sat silently for a while.Min Shun finally spoke: "If it's mine, I'll marry you. But the question is whether it's mine or not. If you want money, I'll go home and give it to you...others, I can't help it."

Peng Juan raised the back of her hand, wiped the tears from her cheeks, stood up and said loudly with some determination: "No, I've made up my mind. When my belly gets bigger, I'll find a rope and hang myself next to my stepmother." At the door of my father's house, they are disgusting to death."

"Hey!" Zhao Xuejun couldn't help laughing.When he finished laughing, Min Shun laughed too.

"You're farting. It's better to die than to live. Why do you go to die and move a place for them? Believe me, your father is disgusting if you live. He will have a hard time after you die. Really, You'd better be disgusted." Min Shun persuaded.

"Is someone giving you advice?" Zhao Xuejun asked the truth.

Peng Juan shook her head.

"How many months?" Zhao Xuejun asked.

Peng Juan rubbed her belly and blinked her eyes: "I haven't had a bad pregnancy, I didn't even know I was pregnant, I thought I was just getting fat, really, then it got bigger and bigger... and... I even moved. They said...five or six months."

Zhao Xuejun gasped, and looked up at the sky for a long time before asking: "Or... live?"

"I'm not going to give birth! I'm going to give birth... I'm really doomed in this life." Peng Juan cried again. The despair of one person made her decide for another life.

"Not stupid, I thought you were really stupid." Min Shun sneered.

Zhao Xuejun stood up, took out a handkerchief from his pocket, and handed it to Peng Juan: "I know that in some county hospitals, there will be an abortion if there is a letter of introduction. Your child will not be able to have an abortion. This is induced labor. Well... the family members are required to sign .”

Peng Juan raised her head and begged to see them: "What should I do? I don't have a family member to sign."

Zhao Xuejun sighed: "My mother often travels on business, and there is a letter of introduction at home. You must go to a formal hospital for treatment, otherwise you will not be able to be a mother in the future."

Peng Juan sneered: "If you can't do it, you can't do it. I will be like this for the rest of my life."

"Don't worry about the signing of the family members. You can go home, and don't go there....Peng Juan, just tell us, and we will be fine." Zhao Xuejun pulled Peng Juan to sit down.

Peng Juan sat for a while, and slowly recalled: "That day after school, Lao Ka's birthday in Qianjie, they asked me to go to have fun. I had nothing to do, so I went. We had dinner at Lao Ka's house together. Lao Ka said to drink, I said I can't, they said I didn't give face. Later, I got drunk...you will know the rest. I asked them, and they all said they didn't do this...all Don't admit it, damn it." Peng Juan gritted her teeth angrily.

"Okay, go and wait at your house." Zhao Xuejun patted Peng Juan on the head, and finally put a few dollars into her hand: "Don't run around, wait for us. I'm hungry, buy food yourself, your grandma When you are old, you also know something, without grandma, who will take you in?"

Peng Juan found the backbone, nodded obediently, and looked this way with that annoying and pitiful swollen face as she walked.Min Shun waved his hand: "Go, go, I won't leave you alone." The girl left.

There was another silence on the cement board, and finally, Min Shun asked, "Tell me, what should we do?"

Zhao Xuejun bowed his head and thought about it: "You go to find someone to touch Lao Ka and them. Whoever hides these days is their business. If you find someone who hides, you take Pengjuan directly to the other's parents' house. Pengjuan Not yet an adult, this is considered a strong X underage girl. Maybe... This is not a matter of one person. If you call Peng Juan, tell them that the child is sure to be born, and report to the police after the child is born. Wait for the child's blood to be identified. , we will naturally know who it is.”

"Can it be done?" Min Shun was a little worried.

"Why can't it be done? They don't want this child to come to the world. Naturally, someone will confess like Peng Juan's grandmother, crying and calling for her to have an operation. Maybe... there will be nothing wrong with us by then. You look forward to it Peng Juan, don't tell her to be abducted to listen to other words. Whoever did this matter, ask them to pay compensation...Shut up in prison, pay for it, they think about it themselves."

"Success! I'm going to ask someone right now, damn it, I'm so mad." Min Shun probably felt that the belt he was getting was really not worth it.

The construction site returned to calm, only... BOOM!The sound of bang... sounded lonely, and when it was getting dark, a man slowly climbed out of the cement pipe, squinting at the sky with the last color of the sun.

If Zhao Xuejun was still there at this moment, he would be surprised to recognize that this person is Song Changan, the new hero in No. [-] Middle School.

Under the setting sun, Song Changan's face was also swollen, half swollen.He looked at the side of the cement pipe, and at the place where Zhao Xuejun and the others left. He lowered his head and thought for a while, then picked up his schoolbag and left there.

When Zhao Xuejun returned home, he saw the clothes hanging in the front yard. He pursed his lips in joy, and then went to the kitchen to lift the lid.

In the pot, several big red-skinned sweet potatoes were warming. He took out one, poured it in his hand a few times, and walked towards his mother's bedroom biting it.Before reaching the bedroom, my mother's nagging, with her unique high-orange demeanor, burst out.

Since the factory shut down, Gaojuzi has suddenly become fine.This kind of leisure made Gao Juzi extremely terrified. She got up early every day, and would go to the factory site to meet up with the old workers as usual, and inquire about the news.But with the departure of the leadership team of the previous municipal party committee.The news about the handicraft factory made those workers more and more desperate.

Gao Juzi, whose life was in jeopardy, felt terrified.She is used to making money.It is not yet the early 90s, and Gao Juzi still feels ashamed to be self-employed, but there are constant news about how much money he makes in business. The saying "Teaching is not as good as selling salted duck eggs" was spread at this time.

"Telling you to wrap your yarn is like killing you. Oh...why can't I have a daughter? It would be nice to have a daughter. I will braid her hair and take her to the street. Our mother and I take a walk together every day." , Shopping together. How caring is a girl. Raise your hand! Let me tell you, my second brother, your brother is in a bad mood recently, so you are not allowed to bother him. If he is annoyed, he will feel uneasy again.

Hold up, what kind of face is that on your face?Second child, do you know that when you were born, I had the opportunity to go to the agency, just because of you, just because of you!I just went to the union.Hold it up!look there? !

Tell me, isn't it because you ran to Laoye Mountain, can my mother go to the handicraft factory?Oh, I see it through, Zhao Jianguo sent it.Secretary Zhao, how awesome, look at his old orange face, remember to go home?

How long has it been...Where are you going, there are still five balls of thread, let me tell you Zhao Xuebing, if you have a longer memory, don't provoke your brother...Oh, I wish I had a girl..."

Zhao Xuejun bit the sweet potato, backed away, and left the house quietly. For the next few days, he was going to live in his godfather's house. He didn't want to come back until his eldest brother took the college entrance examination...won't come back?how can that be possible!The orange mother will probably break the old bones of the godfather.

Song Chang'an didn't come in until nine o'clock at night, once he entered the house.There was a strong smell of tobacco and alcohol in front of him, and some pieces of broken porcelain were scattered all over the floor. His second uncle, Song Liaowang, was lying on the sofa snoring with his two hairy legs stretched out.

Song Changan's second uncle, since the Corps returned to the city, has been idle at his elder brother's house.During the time in the Corps, Song Liaowang suffered a lot. After returning to the city, Song Changan's grandparents arranged for him to go to the government office.This person has not adjusted himself well and always does some inappropriate things.The society doesn't like him, and he doesn't like the current society either.He kept recalling the passionate days in the Corps, always reluctant to wake up.This made Song Changan look down on him very much.

When he came back from school today, his second uncle was at home, drinking and singing, and chanting: We come from all over the world, gathered together, [-] sons and daughters, reclaiming wasteland...

Song Changan stood at the door and said a few words of sarcasm, his father stretched out his hand and slapped him, and Song Changan left with his schoolbag on his back.

The second uncle sat up suddenly, which startled Song Changan. He hid at the door and looked at the untimely man, raised his fist and shouted: "Make up your mind, don't be afraid of sacrifice, overcome all difficulties, and strive for victory!" Continue to sleep.

Mother Liu Qingling was quietly tidying up the house with tools. Seeing Song Changan standing at the door, she lowered her voice and said, "Are you back?"

Song Changan nodded, and was about to enter the house with his schoolbag. His mother held him back and touched his face: "Don't blame your dad. Your dad feels sorry for your uncle. He didn't take good care of him. It's not easy being a big brother. You The second uncle is very pitiful, he is so big, he can't find his way...

Pulling away his mother's hand, Song Changan glared at his younger siblings who were looking at him through the crack of the door, and turned back to his room.

Every family has problems that are unique to each family.Song Changan's grandparents suffered a lot during the Cultural Revolution, and now they are at home suffering from serious and minor illnesses.The younger siblings are still young, seven or eight years behind him.The second uncle does not go to work, does not participate in social activities, and lives in the past every day.His father devoted all his body and mind to his political future. Thinking about this big family matter, Song Chang'an became restless for a while, and he didn't like to stay at home for a moment.

Song Liaokuo, Mayor Song, went home at ten o'clock in the evening.Tonight, he and the leaders of the municipal party committee listened to some reports about Jiangguan county party secretary Zhao Jianguo.With the reform and opening up and the smooth opening of the Wanjiang Highway, the economy of Jiangguan County has jumped with an almost unstoppable momentum in the past two years.

This kind of rapid jump is not a good thing.Take the past few months as an example, several major cases occurred in Jiangguan County.The comprehensive management of Jiangguan County has become a more important matter than the economy.When a new leadership team comes to power, it naturally has the political imagination and hope of the new team.The thirteen counties and districts around Wanlin City are all coal-producing areas. As the economy is active, some counties and districts at the junction of the three provinces have begun to experience hidden dangers caused by the economy.

The case of destroying mountains and forests, the bad competition between towns and towns, the ground subsidence problem in coal-producing areas, and the long-talked-about drought problem, all kinds of criminal cases have disgraced Wanlin City, this time the provincial meeting , Wanlin City was named and given a yellow card.The meeting had just ended, and then there was an explosion in Jiangguan County caused by inadvertent detonator management, resulting in four deaths in one case.

After listening to Zhao Jianguo's report, Song Liaokuo returned home with heavy steps. As soon as he entered the door, he saw his second brother sleeping on the sofa and couldn't help being angry.When he saw his wife's face that was about to explode, he held back again, bent over and picked up his younger brother, carried him back to the bedroom, laid him flat, and fed him a glass of water.Then he sat next to his younger brother, just like when he was a child, patting once and for all.

"Go and talk to Chang'an. It's your fault that you beat him today." His wife stood at the door and said to him.

Song Liaokuo stood up, took off his jacket and handed it to his wife, turned around and opened the door to enter his son's room.

In the room, Song Changan was startled, he quickly threw the cigarette butt out the window.However, the cigarette butt went out, and the cigarette was still in the house.

Song Liaokuo sat down and looked at his taller son, he couldn't bear to blame him, he was too busy at work and too chaotic at home.The boy has grown up unconsciously.

"When did you learn it?" he asked.

Song Changan was stunned for a moment, and replied with a stiff neck: "It's an early meeting."

"In my house, the foreign cigarettes brought back by your uncle, are you the one who took them?"

"Well, my second uncle also took it."

"It's okay, I won't scold you, Chang'an, it's my father's fault for beating you today. These days, my father is in a bad mood. I apologize to you."

Song Chang'an didn't say a word, he was already tired of such an apology.He kicked the cabinet indifferently and asked his father: "My second uncle's work unit called to urge him to go to work."

Song Liaokuo didn't answer, just nodded: "I see, I asked for leave for him, Chang'an, don't blame your second uncle. His best friend, the person he loves the most, has disappeared. We human beings can bear it." It is limited. To treat relatives, you have to give them time and tolerance, and tolerance to others is tolerance to yourself.”

"Dad, can you change the words? I understand these things, but I have the right to be uncomfortable. Every day when I come home, I smell of cigarettes and alcohol. My younger siblings are still young. If you don't look at me, you also look at my younger siblings." For the sake of asking Second Uncle to restrain himself, why doesn’t he go to Third Uncle’s house? Third Uncle’s house is bigger than ours, and the conditions are much better.” Song Changan said angrily.

"Fool, how can an elder brother go to his younger brother's house? Forget it, you don't understand, I still have something to do, you should study first." Song Liaokuo stood up, walked to the door and turned around and said: "Smoking less, smoking is not good."

After his father left, Song Changan lit another cigarette, looked at the moon outside the window, and thought about what happened this evening.He felt that he had an idea, and he never expected to see someone more cloudy than him in this small place.Isn't Zhao Jianguo as simple as he thought? In the future, it seems that he will learn more about Zhao Xuebing.
