brother's advice

When he woke up the next morning, he found that his younger brother had fallen asleep leaning against the edge of his bed. He picked him up and put him on the bed. , All food must be handed over.He came to work instead of his father.

After breakfast in the morning, he went to the field with a group of elders, and Zhang Yan and some women were responsible for transporting the grain back to expose it to the sun...

"Brother, can I not go to school today?"

"What do you think?"

"Well."

"Brother, wait until I come back before going back to the province."

"..."

The weather was hot at this time, and Wu Jidong had rarely been exposed to the sun since he went to the province to study. He was still sweating profusely while wearing a bamboo hat. The elders were all shirtless, but he was wearing long sleeves. If his skin is exposed to the sun for a long time, it will peel off. It will be uncomfortable. Farm work is very hard. In addition to bending over and repeating the same action with a sickle, he also has to throw the harvested rice onto the square rice machine. , In order to prevent food waste, all the millet must be thrown off. These are all physical labor.

"Hey, isn't this the eldest son of the former captain? He's back." The speaker is Huang Qiuzai, who is now the captain.

Seeing his scruffy appearance, Wu Jidong smiled: "Yes, come back and have a look."

"Actually, it's not that I want to be the captain, it's just that everyone recommended me, and I'm too kind to refuse."

"You should be fine."

"Your dad, are you okay?"

"Fortunately, why was my dad approved?"

"Hey, they are all gossips, and they reported some things to the higher authorities. In fact, I don't believe that your father is such a person, but I can't help it. I dare not disobey the orders of the superiors... "

After hearing his words, Wu Jidong sneered in his heart.The corner of the mouth raised: "I heard, or is it because of my mother?"

"This, this, who do you listen to, don't listen to those stinky words, right now everyone is staring at other people's faults, hoping to drag them into the water to save themselves." Huang Qiuzai was talking at this time Suddenly feeling guilty, the conversation turned around: "Let's not talk about this, how about studying in the province? In our village, your brother is the best at studying, and he will definitely have a lot of promise in the future."

"It's hard to say. It's said that feng shui takes turns. One goes to the east of the river and the other goes to the west of the river. Now it looks promising, and maybe it won't be able to be a human being at that time. Isn't my dad's example shining brightly?" He said The words were intended for Huang Qiuzai, and sure enough, his face changed, he let out a haha ​​and left.

"Ji Dong, don't listen to that little bastard's nonsense, your dad was framed by him, and he pretended to say good things, it's too shameless." The speaker is a big man in the village, who used to follow his dad work.

"Uncle, you were here before, right? My mother..."

"Oh, I'm sorry, I can't explain this matter clearly." The big man showed apology, and glanced at Huang Qiuzai who was going away, the expression in his eyes clearly meant that I didn't dare to offend him.

Hmph, they are all duplicity people who protect themselves, as long as things don't happen to them, they hang on high. Huang Qiuzai must have something to do with his mother's affairs, how can he get the truth?

At the end of the day, his waist was almost like shrimp and he couldn't straighten up. This is because he hasn't gotten used to it yet.

After finishing work, he was so tired that he lay down on the bed to rest.

"Brother, are you tired?" After school, Wu Jinan put down his schoolbag and came over to help him beat his back.

"Fortunately, nothing happened at school, right?"

"Well, yes, Brother Fatty asked me to bring you his book, and said that he will let you read it these days. He shares it with other students."

"Okay, thank you fat brother for me tomorrow."

"Ah."

In the evening, he sent his younger brother away and brought a jug of wine to Wu Dayi's house. Wu Dayi's family had two daughters, both older than Wu Jidong.

My son is married, and my youngest daughter is helping out at home without studying. When she saw Wu Jidong, she was still stunned.

"Miss Mingzhu, long time no see."

"Ah, Ji Dong, are you home? When did you come back?" She blushed for some reason while talking. Wu Jidong has long been accustomed to this appearance. In school, girls often blush when talking to him. "Father, Ji Dong is here to see you."

"uncle."

"Oh, Ji Dong, have you eaten yet?" Wu Dayi greeted him, "It's been two years since I've seen you, and I've grown more energetic." After chatting about family matters, Wu Jidong casually talked about school affairs, and then About what happened to his dad. "I don't mean anything else. After all, this matter affects my dad now. I just want to ask clearly, so as not to be used as a fuss about this matter in the future."

"Oh, you asked about your mother? That's not a coincidence. I was sent to work in the opposite village. I don't know what happened. It was only when your mother was gone that I heard some rumors, saying yes Your mother was caught stealing rice from the team..."

"How is it possible? My mother would never do such a thing."

"Yeah, your mother has always been sensible. There may be some misunderstanding, but your mother just said that she didn't steal it, and the people in the village... well, your mother can't think about it."

"So, my mother died by drinking the medicine herself?"

"No, your dad is the team leader. Since the family members stole it, it's not a big deal, and it's not a small thing. The villagers will give pointers... If my sister-in-law can explain the matter clearly, it will be fine."

Wu Jidong knew his mother's temper, and her mother's self-esteem was very strong. She didn't bother to explain a lot to others in front of outsiders, and she was not ashamed to gossip with women in the same village. This made her seem unique, so the village The woman who is a woman can't bear to see her constantly slandering her in the back. He still remembers that when he was a child, once in the field, his mother was weeding, and the woman who was in charge of the field next to our house took the field she was in charge of. Keep leaning towards this side, at the beginning it was just leaning a little bit, my mother just pretended not to see it, but when my mother went back to look again, she found that the woman had moved more than one meter and set aside the vegetables that had been planted. At that time, my mother was very angry, reprimanded, and re-drawn the boundaries.Unexpectedly, the woman on the opposite side not only didn't reflect on herself, but also scolded her mother. The village woman's swearing words were poor and repeated, which were those dirty words.My mother just replied to her: "If you dare to move over again, I will overturn all the vegetables in your field, and if you don't accept it, find someone to judge."

As a result, the woman didn't dare to curse again.

His mother said to him, "It's not about being afraid of people."

If my mother said she didn't steal, then she definitely didn't steal. Maybe others don't understand her and she can turn a blind eye, but what if the closest relatives don't believe in themselves?That kind of chills, she will drink medicine in a fit of anger, right?It can be seen that she was desperate at the time.

Thinking of this, Wu Jidong felt desolate in his heart.

Wu Jidong didn't go home directly, but came to the river, plunged into the river, and kept swimming, as if he wanted to let the river water extinguish the anger suppressed in his heart. He learned one thing these years, the more The more angry you have to be calm, otherwise it will affect your judgment.After swimming back and forth for an unknown amount of time, he finally exhausted himself. He lay down on the beach, looked at the sky, and began to let go of his mind.

Once a person relaxes, he is particularly prone to sleepiness, drowsiness strikes, and he vaguely feels something cool is covering his face.
