Shangqiaotou Village, Qiaotou Town

When the well was dug, it was almost the end of July. On this day, Hong Sheng brought up two buckets of water and poured them into the big laundry basin in the yard. They put them in the sun from the morning until noon. At the hottest time, the water was almost warm, so I boiled another pot of water, closed the door, and pulled Lesheng to take a bath in the yard.In this place on the Loess Plateau, water is a precious thing, so bathing is a luxury. Grandma Hong Sheng said that in their generation, they bathed three times in their lives, once in life, once in marriage, once in death, and once in other times. I have never heard the word "bathing"; in the generation of Hong Sheng's mother, she refused to say that once she poured the water from washing potatoes directly in the yard, and grandma scolded her inside the house.

"Oh, you are a lady from a rich man's family. You have big hands (meaning it's too wasteful), and you can manage the family in the future?"

My mother cried back when she heard it, and then she paid attention to how grandma used the water. The water that washed the potatoes was muddy water just after washing, but after a while, the mud sank to the bottom. Washing pots, dishes and rags is called housekeeping.In the generation of Hong Sheng, the water is still not rich, but the people with head and face will always take a bath once a year. Ordinary people, in summer, sweat and heat, just twist a towel and wipe it, sometimes with half washbasin water. , Enough for a family to wipe.If grandma Hong Sheng wanted to live, she would definitely be scolded again seeing Hong Sheng pouring so much water for bathing Le Sheng, but Hong Sheng was happy.

"Hong Sheng, because even (meaning why) have to take a bath today?"

"Wash and cool off. We have a well now, so it's easy to fetch water! If you want to wash in the future, I'll fetch water and boil it for you."

"Hong Sheng, then you wash together too!"

"The basin is too small to sit on. I'll wash it for you first, and I'll wash it later."

When Le Sheng finished taking off his clothes and stood there, Hong Sheng's eyes straightened. Although the two of them treated each other naked#裎#every night, since seeing Le Sheng's mind changed, this was the first time in broad daylight. This is the first time I've seen such a smooth Lesheng; Lesheng's skin is different from his, it is naturally white, like an egg that has been peeled off its shell, especially the two white legs, which are as symmetrical as a pulled thread.Being looked at by Hong Sheng like this, Le Sheng suddenly became a little shy, his face became hot, and even his body began to heat up, so he cried timidly,

"Hong Sheng, can you take a shower?"

Hong Sheng came back to his senses, coughed uncomfortably, and said in a hoarse voice,

"It can be washed, come in and wow!"

The hands that rubbed Le Sheng's back trembled a little, and the temperature in his palms was frighteningly high. Le Sheng just lowered his head and asked Hong Sheng to scrub him shyly and timidly. On the body, it was fragrant and slippery, Hong Sheng collected his mind and helped the lovely person in front of him to wash from head to toe, clean and refreshed.After drying himself, Le Sheng acted as if he was cheating, standing in the basin without shoes, and letting Hong Sheng hug him with his arms outstretched. Hong Sheng smiled and gently pinched his nose. As soon as he mentioned it, Le Sheng smiled and wrapped his wet feet around his waist; when he returned to the house, Hong Sheng was about to put him on the kang, but he let go, but the person did not come down. Laughing is like a child who has made a prank, tightly wrapping his hands and feet around the other party, "hanging" on the other party's body firmly, laughing and saying,

"Hong Sheng, have I grown on you~"

Hong Sheng also laughed, and deliberately opened his hands to lead the prankster around on the spot, saying,

"Well, the long one is quite strong, and it can't fall off."

Le Sheng laughed even more happily. After the two of them played like this for a while, he lost his strength in laughing. Hong Sheng leaned over and put the other party on the kang. Smiling like a child, it was so pretty, so Hong Sheng just kept watching gently, watching, Le Sheng stopped smiling, his eyelids drooped, his face became redder, but the hands around Hong Sheng were both But he didn't let go of his feet, such an ambiguous #悲# posture, an ambiguous #悬# occasion, an ambiguous #惧# atmosphere, so Hong Sheng's face turned down little by little, and his lips touched Le Sheng's In an instant, he didn't want to stop. After kissing his face, kissed his forehead, kissed his eyebrows, kissed his eyes, kissed his nose, kissed that little mouth that always made him happy, kissed his ears again after kissing his mouth, kissed his neck, kissed his collarbone ... At this time, Le Sheng closed his eyes lightly, his eyelashes fluttered, and inadvertently let out a "hmm" from his nasal cavity, and Hong Sheng kissed harder; from head to toe, every corner, every corner, every corner , my dear Le was panting again and again, until the last sound seemed to be squeezed out of his throat, one sound after another, which made Hong Sheng feel hot all over, and lost all reason... This is the first time the two of them have done this in the daytime. The biggest difference between doing such a thing during the day and at night is: if you want to lie to yourself, you can wake up at night and tell yourself that you had a dream; You can see it clearly, every inch of his skin turns from white to pink because of you, you can also see him clearly, he is like a fish short of water, clinging to you and screaming silently for you, you can still see it clearly...It's so real, You can't lie to yourself.

Looking at the sleeping person in his arms, Hong Sheng felt distressed, and blamed him for another moment. If only he was a woman, even if he wasn't a woman, it would be better if he didn't be so stupid, even if he was so stupid Silly, it would be fine if he could be so stupid for a lifetime, but unfortunately, Hong Sheng didn't dare to hope anymore.During those countless nights of struggling, Hong Sheng accepted the fact that Le Sheng is a man, and indulged his "dark" thoughts towards him in the dark of his heart, but he was not sure whether Le Sheng knew what he was doing , although this person looks to be 20 years old, he still has the temperament of a child. Hong Sheng is afraid that Le Sheng will suddenly "grow up" one day and find out that he has done these "bad" things to him. What will he do? Think about yourself?How do you see yourself?Will the love from that time still exist?Thinking of the day when Le Sheng showed disdain and contempt towards him, Hong Sheng was so uncomfortable that he couldn't breathe.Sometimes Hong Sheng especially hoped that Le Sheng would suddenly become "sober" and "mature" tell him whether to reject or accept.

On the mid-autumn night of August [-]th, before the moon comes out, move the small round table into the yard, offer watermelon, red dates, and apricots, and put three-month cakes on the plate. After the moon comes out, you can enjoy the moon while enjoying He ate something; Le Sheng was very generous and ate a whole mooncake for Hei Bei, and half for Da Dali. The rest of the watermelon, red dates, and mountain apricots went into his and Hong Sheng's stomachs. inside.Although it was already autumn, the weather had just gone dry, and it was a very comfortable time. Le Sheng snuggled into Hong Sheng's arms and asked,

"Hong Sheng, because (why) do you want to eat mooncakes today?"

"Because today is the Mid-Autumn Festival!"

"Because even (why) moon cakes are eaten during the Mid-Autumn Festival?"

"Because the family is going to be reunited?"

"Our family is reunited, you, me, Hei Bei, Dali, we all ate mooncakes."

"Well, our family is reunited!"

"Hong Sheng, next year on the [-]th day of the eighth lunar month will we also eat mooncakes?"

“Ate every year!”

"Then let's eat together next year"

"Good~"

At the end of August, the "autumn harvest" entered, and the crops in the field could be harvested one after another. This year, Hong Sheng's family planted five acres of sunflowers, five acres of millet, five acres of corn, two acres of potatoes, two acres of black beans, one acres of peanuts, and two acres. People get up early and work late every day to harvest peanuts, dig potatoes, beat sunflowers, and cut millet... Seeing mule carts of crops being pulled home, Hong Sheng never had a "sense of accomplishment" in his heart, and kept the peanuts for others. Eat it raw, stir-fry, boil, or marinate; eat black beans vigorously and add them to the ingredients to ensure that they grow fat and strong; keep some of the others, and the rest can be sold. After that, you can add new clothes to Le Sheng, play a new double cotton quilt, and eat two catties more pork every month...

The happy Hong Sheng didn't know how to alleviate the excitement brought by this kind of happiness, so he drove the mule cart and sang a folk song. Cheerful Taste:

I want to kiss and want to make my wrist (that) soft (ahhhh)

I can't hold a bowl with chopsticks (Yeah)

Wanting to kiss makes my heart flustered

I cooked dumplings with a pot of yam (that) egg (yah, yah).

For the first time, sister Zhen, you are not here (Yahuhe);

Your mother hit me with two pot lids on the head (yah yo).

Wanting to kiss makes my heart flutter (Ya Hu He, Ya Hu He);

I haven't eaten a mouthful of rice for three days (Yeah, yah).

Eighteen (that) layers of fennel-stuffed cabbage (ya ho he, ya ho he);

Sister, do you love the suffering (that) person (yah, yo).

"Xiao Lesheng" Do you love the suffering (that) person (Yeah, yah)

When he sang the last line, he changed "Sister" to "Xiao Lesheng" out of excitement, raised his eyebrows and raised his eyes with a teasing tone. This is the first time Lesheng has heard Hong Sheng sing, with a rough hoarse voice, It has a special flavor; living in Qiaotou Village for more than a year, Le Sheng has also heard this folk song, and now it is sung by Hong Sheng, and the lyrics have been changed.

The threshed millet still needs to be fanned before being ground into small yellow rice (I don’t need to explain it, check it online, many children probably have never heard of it) to remove impurities from the husk; there is a large threshing farm in the village, The villagers who need to thresh will discuss it in advance. It will be your family today, and our family tomorrow. They can’t finish it during the day. After dark, they will pull a wire and hang up the headlights, and they will rush to work to prevent It will affect other households tomorrow; people who thresh together that day will help together. First, there are only two cars for this car. Second, one car requires at least four people to operate at the same time, and one shakes the wind. One for shaking the valley, one for passing the dustpan for shaking the valley, and one for sorting out the husks.When it was Hong Sheng's turn, Le Sheng wanted to try shaking the grain. He took a dustpan and shook the grain evenly from the entrance of the fan cart. The wind from the fan cart would leave the full grain at the end and move forward a little. It is broken or shriveled millet, and at the end there are impurities such as skin, shell, and grass.Shaking the grain is also considered a technical job. Holding the dustpan in both hands, shake it lightly from side to side, and shake off the thin layers of grain with a skillful effort. If the force is uneven, the wind that blows the cart will Impurities are not blown thoroughly.Le Sheng stood on the fan cart. Since he was a little taller, he chose to kneel on the platform in front of him, and began to imitate people's shaking. Sometimes he shook too much, and then he shook for a long time. The millet ran behind the dustpan ; but Le Sheng is really savvy in his work, and he was shaking decently after a while; Hong Sheng was in charge of shaking the wind, and his hands kept moving, but his smiling eyes were locked on Le Sheng most of the time; This kind of work is usually divided between husband and wife. Men, who have a lot of strength, are responsible for shaking the wind, and women, who are light and light, stand on the fan cart and shake the grain; Le Sheng on the fan car was like his daughter-in-law, with such a serious look, it seemed that his whole body seemed inexhaustible.

During the break, Hong Sheng followed Le Sheng out of the fan cart, but Le Sheng hugged his neck and refused to let go. Seeing this, other people in Guchang laughed and said,

"Ah, Hong Sheng, why did you carry Le Sheng away?"

Hong Sheng's face was slightly astringent, he gave Le Sheng a sneaky look, and with a big effort in his hands, he hugged him horizontally, and turned his head to the joking people and said,

"Our Jia Lesheng's knees are numb!"

Ignoring everyone's laughter, he turned and walked to another grain pile, but Lesheng whispered in his ear,

"Hong Sheng, aren't my legs numb?"

Hong Sheng blinked at him, which meant that he was lying to them, so Le Sheng smiled and buried his face in the opponent's arms until he was placed on the grain pile, Hong Sheng lifted Le Sheng's legs , pretending to rub his calf, then put his big hand on his knee, pressed it gently, and said distressedly while pressing,

"After kneeling for so long, your legs hurt?"

"It doesn't hurt!"

Hong Sheng's family produced five mu of millet, and they produced nearly two thousand catties. The barn was filled to the brim with sacks of sacks, and it made people feel swollen when they saw it. Let it be sold again in the spring, and with the money, I took Lesheng to the town, and first played a thick safflower forged cotton quilt.
