Chapter 1 Hometown

three

September on the plain is the best season. It's windy and dusty in spring, and even peach blossoms and apricot flowers have spun yarn. Winter scenery, purple smoky villages.

It's cute, too, but the endless Ye Ping always seems empty. As soon as we arrive at the green tent, white clouds are all over the sky, and the whole plain is rolling.

Green ocean. Villages and towns are like green islands floating on the sea. But the best is autumn. Millet is yellow and sorghum is red. That's great.

Children with long beards are like red cherries fluttering on the iron spears of the people in the plains during the guerrilla war. Autumn wind is blowing, fluttering and rustling, this endless plain,

It's like a legion full of our jubilant cries.

Now a carriage with wheels is driving in the autumn fields. You can hear its rhythmic car sound from a distance. Small copper bells are also beautiful.

Crispy.

This carriage came down from a small station on Han Jing Road. Early in the morning, it left the hedge hung with red cloth with its passengers.

A small country shop. Xiaoqing mule just satiated with food and drink, just like an inexperienced young man climbing a mountain, he charges as soon as he gets on the road, which makes the distressed Lord

People can't stop it. In the morning, the wind is light, the dew on the grass tree is heavy, and the hoof of Xiaoqing mule is wet and walks very hard. Before noon, just

Drive out more than 30 miles. It's already noon, and the sun has been wiping people's sweat, but it has slowed down and hasn't reached its peak yet.

Fang. The driver passed by, regardless of people's urging, and the driver had the idea of a driver.

There were six passengers on this bus, but two of them got off midway and it was still very crowded. The rear of the vehicle

four

Rope is used to kill tall luggage rolls. Xiaoqing mule's material bag and long rope bucket are also tied there. In the carriage

Two women and one child are full. Our hero, sitting in front of the car, his legs kept beating under the car. He hasn't come for years.

Has returned to his hometown.

He rolled a big trumpet cigarette, put it in his mouth, and was having a close conversation with someone. Because of the hot weather, he unbuttoned his military uniform and opened it.

Holding my arm, holding a military cap, revealing a thick head of hair. He is not tall, but he is agile. Those eyes, revealing a bronze color.

White, straightforward, cheerful and even a little naughty. He seems to have no estrangement from others. He called the woman with the baby in her arms.

Sister-in-law, that 18-year-old girl's name is Big Sister, and she soon got acquainted.

"Comrade, which village are you from?" The girl asked him.

"Fort Phoenix"

"Who else is at home?"

"There is a father and a mother."

"Long time no see?"

"It's been a few years."

"My uncle is also in the army. I went to see him this time. " The girl then asked, "What are you doing in the army?"

"You guess."

The girl cocked her head and studied for a while, then said, "Are you a correspondent?" "Ha ha, you guessed it."

He giggled. Really, where to station troops; There is not a landlord who does not regard him as a correspondent. As soon as the troops arrived, he had two legs on the kang.

A plate, in short, is the parents of the villagers. It's so sweet to be covered in aunts. Those poor people are all beaming.

Laugh, no one doesn't like him. He is no more than a few years old from those correspondents and often gets rid of soldiers. I really don't see any problem at present.

Same. As soon as the troops were assembled, he stood in front of the queue of more than 100 people and spoke, only then did he know that he was the company commander.

The carriage on wheels walked slowly. On both sides of the road, sorghum ears are big and red and closely arranged. The ears are covered with sorghum leaves.

And the singing of crickets. When the hoofbeat of Xiaoqing mule approached, the grasshopper jumped up and spread its wings to fly far away. The cricket's singing stopped. Wait until the car comes.

Soon after the first round, they sang super again.

"Wake up, it's raining!" The girl suddenly slapped the driver. It turned out that he was taking a nap with a whip, Xiaoqing.

The mule probe pulled the sorghum leaves and the car stopped. The driver rubbed his eyes and gently waved his whip, and the car started again.

In this area, the roads are lined with sorghum fields. The land in central Hebei is fertile, and the cultivators are greedy, and the land is beside the driveway ditch. The trolley came here.

Son, it's like walking into an absent-minded long alley and touching the sorghum leaves on the side screaming. There are one or two sorghum branches, which are flushed by the wind.

Spike, stay on the road. Xiaoqing mule stop-and-go, has been deeply to both sides, the car has been walking more and more slowly.

"Look at this child!" Sister-in-law put her hand over the child and said to the girl, "Laifeng, please hurry the driver."

Order it! Do you go home in the dark like this? "

"I promise you will arrive before dinner!" The driver greeted him happily.

"ah! Look how smart you are! Arrive at midnight, won't you get home before dinner? The girl named Feng said.

People laughed for a while. The driver is still in no hurry. It was 1950. On the central Hebei plain, some wealthy middle peasants took a fancy to it.

In order to catch up with this business.

It doesn't take several groups to hire a person who is alive in other places, but they make a lot of money in one trip. this

You can buy a house and land in two or three years. This Xiaoqing mule is a driver.

Top-notch, how can he be bored!

At this moment, our hero suddenly laughed. He quietly untied the bucket tied to the luggage and covered the child's small mattress.

Squeeze your eyes and say, "Driver, why is your little iron bucket for drinking water for animals gone?"

"Ah?" The driver turned around, "Oh, no! I don't know when it fell! "

"I just saw it."

"Did you pass by that big willow tree?" "yes."

"Well, the strength of the fall is not great." He handed me the whip. "Please hurry it for me for a while, and I'll look for it."

"Then you have to buy a pack of cigarettes to wake me up."

"yes! Ok! "

The driver jumped out of the car and ran back, while the girl and daughter-in-law in the car tried to hold back their laughter. Whip on the master, bang bang two crunchy, although

But it's not beside Xiaoqing mule, but it's already feeling sloppy. It immediately leaves the sorghum ear and walks excitedly. Grasshoppers fly and smoke four.

Scattered, giggling, the girl's daughter-in-law soon left a dozen miles and stopped at the door of a small restaurant in the village that was scheduled to be pointed out.

When the driver came back sweating, the young man was drinking water for the animals in a small bucket. He took out his cigarette bag and handed it to the driver and said, you

You see, the car has arrived for you, and the bucket has been found for you. You are not allowed to buy cigarettes. Let's go Give me a pot first. "With the girl daughter-in-law smiled again.

After a while, the girl smiled and almost cried.

At this moment, I only heard someone shouting in the shop:

"Isn't that GaZi? Gazi! "

Everyone turned their heads and saw a chubby man coming out of the shop. Yaoli

Wearing a water skirt. With a towel on his shoulder. Come and hold the young man's hand with both hands and say. "Gazi! You're back! How many years, or

Remember me? "

Gazi smiled and said, "Lao Wang baked wheat cake. Forget that you can't eat sesame cakes. " It turns out that the sesame cakes made by this person are very famous in Sanli, Fiona Fang, Fiona Fang.

Got this nickname

Lao Wang took him, smiled for a while and said, "Come in and have a rest! Gazi, where have you been drilling wells all these years? People in this street always talk about you and say,

After so many years, I don't know where our Gazi has gone. "

Everyone sat down in the small hall. The driver asked, "which gazi is he?"

Lao Wang raised his eyebrows and said, "You are so confused! Take your bus all the way, still don't know who the big brother is? He burned the turret,

Hit the traitors and catch the japs! What about gazi? "

"ah! He is a gazi! " The daughter-in-law said in surprise, "I have long heard that Gazi is long and Gazi is short. I've always wanted to see his gazi

Talking all the way this time, but I didn't know it was him! "

"He just said that he was a reporter." The girl pointed at him and said, "No wonder people call you Gazi. You are really a scorpion! "

"Quack quack, anyway, I've had enough." I'm sweating like a pig while driving, and my breathing is uneven.

What happened to old Wang Mingbai? He wiped his face and said, "A man's mind changes 72 times, and his mind changes 360 times."

There are so many tricks that I can't beat him for days. How can you fight him? "

The girl said, "I heard that you disguised yourself as a new wife and took the watchtower in Dali Village. How did you do it? "

Dress up? "

Gazi just laughed.

"Just grin!" The girl urged again.

Gazi said with a smile: "On that occasion, our political commissar lent me a big flower coat and four or two powders. I put on a big flowered jacket,

That's the powder. I didn't go to the white in the middle of the night, which caused me to be sleepy in the car the next day. I took a nap with a machine gun and left.

Here we are ... "

The girl giggled and asked again.

"I heard that there was a battle in this store that year?"

Lao Wang is making noodles for everyone, and the small iron spoon jingles. Then I turned my head and said, "Don't mention it, I almost didn't let him scare me to death!" " "

Lao wang conveniently a finger, "that GaZi sitting in this place. He was drinking a bowl of winter melon soup, and my eyes swept away and came from the opposite side.

A Japanese soldier and a spy. I turned white with fear. Gazi's hands were quick, so she tied up my dirty skirt and picked up a rag to wipe the table. that

Gazi greeted the two guys with a smile as soon as they entered the door. Please sit down, Taijun! The two guys sat down, and I was relieved and gave it to them.

Those two guys have a lot of food. Who knows that spy is sharp-eyed and always looks at Gazi. Gazi carries two bowls of soup, the kind specially made.

The service suddenly said. Who are you? Gazi said. "I am a waiter." The spy said he would stand up and look for him. I thought it was broken, but

It was Gazi who smiled and said, "Don't be busy, you have a bowl of soup first!" " ! "As he spoke, he spilled two bowls of boiled soup on his head, scaring the two guys to scream.

Just as he was reaching for the gun, Gazi's big box stopped them: "Don't move" ... Haha, he drank a bowl of winter melon soup here.

Caught two prisoners. But it really scared me to death. My heart was still on cloud nine for several days. "

"Stop it, Lao Wang," Gazi said. "At that time, you were afraid of being in your shop.

Fighting in the forest. "

"It's hard to say." Lao Wang said: "My political consciousness is not high, but my family is counting on this store for dinner!" " You're here.

As soon as you hit me, I demand that you fire me at once. But you also played a lot! Others hide in secluded places and come out to play at night; You pour

Well, I like to find busy places. Tell me about this big event in Yue Ming store. Why don't you come back? And touched your light. Those traitors and spies collect taxes.

Yeah, less fooling around. "

There's a lot of gossip. Noodles in soup and baked wheat cakes have been served. Don't eat, pay and walk out the door.

At that time, Xiaoqing mule was full. I ate it in the street, and there was a bench in front. There is half a basket of grass on it. Needless to say,

It has long been accustomed to this way of pinching people, and everyone got on the bus. I heard that Gazi was back, and many people crowded into the car to watch.

Gazi was embarrassed and said with a smile, "Am I a new wife? Do you think I am like this? "

"Gazi, you are rarer than a new wife." An old man said with a smile.

"Go home, folks, and see you again when you are free."

The wheeled carriage has started, rolling on the plain where sorghum leaves rustle like running water.

The first chapter is the end of hometown.
