pastoral life

Mingzhu took the time to talk to Wang Mingchuan about the hospital examination. At first, he thought it would take a lot of talking. After all, he had always thought that Wang Mingchuan was a very responsible and even dull elder brother. Given his age and experience, he naturally had a long-term vision. Not much, now that the house looks like this, Wang Mingchuan, the elder brother, must not be in the mood to look after the books, so he just nodded after a little thought.

"I took advantage of the free time in the field to read a book, and when I went to the field later, I took it with me. When I couldn't work hard, I stood aside and read a book. Naturally, I didn't have to do the work I should do when I came back. For those who are left behind, just squeeze in more time to study. Although the scholar has no salary, he is exempted from corvee service, if I can fight for one, I won’t lose your support because of the recruiting from above.”

Hearing this, Mingzhu has a higher opinion of Wang Mingchuan. Although this child is young, he is transparent and far-sighted, and his mind is not rigid. He knows what to do and what not to do. Opportunity, given time, can make a difference.

"You don't have to work too hard. Reading in the sun hurts your eyes. Let me sew a book bag with you to hang books on your body. You can read books when the field is free. Just remember to avoid some light and need shade. I just took a look at it when I was in the ground."

"I understand it in my heart, so you don't need to worry about me."

Mingzhu didn't say any more, but took the time to tear up an old dress that Xiaohu couldn't fit into and made a book bag. He is not a woman and he is not good at female celebrities, but he can do the most basic sewing, mending, cutting and cutting. of.There is no embroidery or decoration on the book bag, but the stitches are very firm, no matter how many books are packed, there is no worry about the thread breaking.The shoulder straps were also made extremely wide, and Mingchuan tried it, but he didn't feel cramped at all.

"You are bothered."

He held the book bag and looked at it with great interest. It was just a blue cloth bag, which couldn't match the good looks at all, but he just liked it, and the more he looked at it, the more he liked it. After he got it, he couldn't wait to put two books in it. I carry the book on my back wherever I go. Every time I take the book out of the bag to read, I always touch the fine but somewhat irregular stitches on the cloth bag. up.

In one's life, can you find a few people who are willing to consider the minutiae for you and take care of your family without any worries?How lucky he was to meet him at such an early age.No matter rich or poor, the family will always be together. He will raise his younger siblings together, run around to make a living together, and send away the children at home to form a new family. In the end, only the two of them will be left to grow old together.

At the most difficult time in his life, he met someone.

Wang Xue's Pearl.

The first and only person in his life to be preceded by his last name.

**

The weather is getting hotter, Mingzhu has already planted a few acres of land in front of the yard and planted common vegetables, and the orange trees next to the courtyard dam have also begun to bear fruit, and the green bumps hanging on the short trees make people's teeth sore , They plant fruit trees in every household here, among which orange trees are the most. Not only is a piece of soil opened up beside the yard to grow them, but they are also planted on both sides of the road on the field.Mingzhu knew that it would get angry if she ate too much, so she didn't bother to take care of it. She only fed chickens and ducks while raising children and never went to the orchard.The brood of chicks hatched a month ago, and two died. After all, there were still thirteen chickens left in the yard, chirping and chasing after the hens. Xiaotan loved to chase after the yellow and orange chicks. A group ran all over the yard, and the hen was so angry that she slapped her with its wings. Mingzhu just smiled when she saw it but didn't stop her.

"Brother! Brother Mingzhu!"

When Mingzhu was doing some daily chores in the yard, Wang Xiaohu ran over yelling, his voice could be heard from far away, so Mingzhu heard him when Wang Xiaohu was two blocks away from the yard. The content of the roar.

"Brother, it's not good! The second brother was broken by those bastards in Xiawan!"

Mingzhu heard the words and quickly threw the food bowl in her hand and ran towards the small lake. Wang Xiaohu was also impatient, so he pulled Mingzhu up and ran outside. Wang Xiaotan, who was about to chase the Pearl, was pulled back, and went to lock the courtyard door, took his sister into the house, closed the door and dared not come out.

When Mingzhu ran over, Wang Dahe was still being pressed and beaten. Normally, Mingzhu would not care about seeing this appearance. After all, it is common for boys to fight, but now seeing that there is obviously something wrong with Dahe's feet, and his face is as white as paper. He couldn't care so much and rushed forward to pull away the half-grown children who were pressing him.

"Dahe, Dahe, I am your brother Mingzhu, where did you get hurt?"

"pain……"

"Where does it hurt? Only the leg or the side?"

Wang Dahe's face was sweating from the pain, Mingzhu didn't know where he was hurt and didn't dare to touch him for a while, so she had to drag a child over while asking anxiously.

"What the hell did you do to him!"

Mingzhu's evil spirit was overwhelming, and those children were frightened when they saw the situation. A few villagers working in the nearby fields rushed to help when they saw that something was wrong. Someone had already informed the barefoot doctor and Wang Mingchuan in the village. The boy also ran away in fright, leaving only Mingzhu and a few familiar villagers guarding Wang Dahe.

"Brother, my leg hurts... hurts..."

Seeing Dahe's appearance, Mingzhu was very distressed, and she was relieved when she heard that his leg was hurting. Although something wrong with his leg was a big problem, it was not life-threatening.With a bright pearl in his heart, he didn't panic so much. He found a wooden stick and drew straw and tied it to Dahe's leg to help him fix it. Then he put Dahe up with a stretcher that was used to carry pigs from previous years by a villager, and a group of people Just like this, he was carried to the barefoot doctor, and after a lot of tossing, the sky was already dark and the pearl was dark before he carried the big river on his back and led the small lake home.

"How is it?"

Wang Mingchuan saw Mingzhu coming back with Wang Dahe on his back from a distance, and he couldn't wait to meet him. Earlier, he was also called to check on Dahe's situation, but this matter seemed strange. After going back, Xiaohu refused to leave for life and death, so he also stayed to help together, until now the family finally got all the talents together.

"Let's go to the house first."

Wang Dahe fell into a deep sleep after all this trouble, Mingzhu put him in the room and wiped his body with a towel soaked in hot water, seeing the clearly visible ribs made her heart throb with pain .The children of the Wang family are much more sensible than others, not for other reasons, but because the Wang family has no elders who can be coquettish or willful, so the children of this family are very well-behaved, especially Dahe, who is only nine years old but more than ten years old than those. The old man can still do it. Before dawn, he went to the mountains to hunt pigweed and came back to boil the pot to feed the pigs. He not only helped to take care of his younger siblings, but also did bamboo work whenever he was free. Basically, the Shake Kei, sieve, and pot brush at home came from him. Hands, it's hard to imagine such a big kid can do so much, but he just did it.

Just like Wang Mingchuan, Wang Dahe is an elder brother, and he loves his younger siblings especially. If there are good ones, he always sticks to those who are younger than him. If there is more meat on the table, he always refuses to touch it. Mingzhu and Wang Mingchuan have to force him to eat before he will eat. , but he is not as smart as Wang Mingchuan, born to be honest and dull, he only knows how to be kind to his family and he will not calculate.

Mingzhu clenched her fists.

Although his reason told him that it was normal for children to fight, he had been beaten to death when he was a child, but now it was on his own child, but he couldn't hide his hostility. The children in their family were all tops Well, I never thought of harming anyone, but now I was bullied to the door!

**

After the lights were turned off at night, Mingzhu took the initiative to go to Wang Mingchuan's side, but the two of them had no other thoughts now, and they just got together to talk about the day.

"Xiaohu said that the two of them were beaten for no reason when they went to drive ducks into the pond."

Although Xiaohu is young, he is not indistinguishable from things, and what he said is true.There are many children in the village, and there are relatives and estrangements since they came here. Naturally, their family in Shangwan and Xiawan do not travel frequently. Although they are not close, they have no serious enmity.Because Xiawan has his family's Sanwan paddy fields just planted and the ducks can't be harmed, so Dahe and Xiaohu took bamboo poles to drive ducks to Xiawantang. This has been done a lot on weekdays, but Today, I ran into a dozen and a half boys from Xiawan who watched them rush up and beat them up without saying a word. Wang Dahe guarded Xiaohu and asked him to run away first, but he was injured when he stopped those people. leg.

"It's common for children to fight. Maybe Dahe offended a few of them somewhere."

Wang Mingchuan had seen many of these since he was a child and thought it was normal, Mingzhu couldn't tell what was wrong, but he just felt that something was wrong.

"It's not convenient for us to stand out when children fight. Today, those families also came to pay for the money. Fortunately, Dahe's leg is not too bad. He will take care of it for two days, and the rest..."

Mingzhu didn't say anything about the rest, because he himself didn't know what to do with the rest, but when he thought about what happened today, he trembled with anger and faintly panicked.

He didn't know if this premonition was accurate, he just knew that this kind of thing should not happen again in the future, those little brats didn't care how serious they were, if they really messed up their own children, he would find someone to cry with.

Mingzhu didn't go out for the next two days and only took care of Wang Dahe at home. Wang Mingchuan also hurried home after finishing his work as soon as possible after going out. He could see Mingzhu's uneasiness. .

In the past two days, something big or small happened.

The children who passed through Shantai to the upper bay had a fight with the children from the lower bay.

It was a gang fight on a real scale. It turned out that the boys from Mrs. Jiang's family who had played well with the Wang family couldn't feel angry when they saw their brothers being bullied, so they planned to seek revenge from the people in Xiawan.The half-children don't know anything else, but they value loyalty and save face. People in Shangwan are suppressed and beaten by people in Downward. If they don't beat them back, wouldn't it appear that Shangwan is afraid of Xiawan? No one could swallow this breath. The next day, more than 40 boys in Shangwan ran to Xiawan to seek revenge for those who did it at the time, and finally developed into a group of nearly [-] people. Naturally, there are more people in Shangwan. The advantage, not only beat up those bullies enough, but also asked some tricks.

"Jiang Xiaosi really said that?"

After hearing Wang Xiaohu's tip-off, Mingzhu immediately ran to Aunt Jiang's house to look for Jiang Xiaosi, and only then did she figure out the whole story. The boy gave some copper coins, saying that if he could cripple the two boys of the Wang family, he would give them some more copper coins.Those children are not very old and they often fight. The injuries on their bodies have never been broken since they were young. Therefore, they feel that it is easy to get money just by fighting. The fact that Wang Xiaohu was blocked was due to Xiaohu running fast, otherwise there would be more than one person lying on the bed now.

Mingzhu's hands and feet were cold when he heard it, his idea was confirmed, but he couldn't figure out how such a vicious person would come to embarrass the children.Everyone in the village knows everyone, and they can't find the screwdriver who has to use children to perform surgery for money. Adults are afraid that doing evil things will repay future generations, and those who spend money are afraid that they will not do it He lost the opportunity to make things happen, so he turned his brains on the children.Those half-children are not afraid of anything at the time when they are not afraid of the sky, and it is common to get injured in fights. Even if they are limping, they can only suffer. If it weren’t for these children in Shangwan who made such a fuss, they would not be able to get the bottom out. Now The facts are in front of your eyes, but it makes you feel chills down your spine.

They are being watched.

And I don't know who was staring at him for some reason.

Everyone in the Wang family cheered up to deal with it, for fear that they would be fooled again. At this moment, Jiaojiao of Master Xue also ushered in the day of marriage.

The author has something to say: The foreshadowing was laid before the nest, and everyone has discovered it, um, um, it will be revealed soon.

Originally, Xue Jiaojiao was supposed to be married off today, damn it, I have to wait until tomorrow.
