Chapter 5 He is still a child
"Hey, Qijin doesn't play the string anymore? Why are you going?"

"Pull the string, Xiao Qijin, who is calling you? What are you doing wandering around?"

"Qijin, have you learned the craft well? Come and show it to the second master when you have time!"

Yan Changqing walked in the village with his erhu in hand, and everyone he met greeted him cordially—this was the side effect of learning erhu, which made him a "celebrity" in Dayanzhuang.

The village is not very big. On the second day of learning to play the erhu, he has successfully achieved an achievement known to the whole village.

The reason why the achievement was not achieved on the first day was because those who knew about it on the first day felt that it was a bully messing around and it was not worth mentioning.

It has been nearly 20 days since he started learning the erhu. When he walks in the village, no matter how old or young he is, they all make fun of him. It is not a malicious joke, but just for fun.

Yan Changqing responded one by one with a smile, and went to the second uncle's house.

As usual, he first called his grandma and second aunt, and then praised his younger brother Yan Changpo who was still breastfeeding. After a series of tricks, everyone was happy again.

Yan Erhe didn't like this nephew, he was too aggressive, and yesterday he even urged himself to cut other people's horse's tail.Fortunately, I didn't do it myself, so I asked the owner of the horse to help cut a strand.

Facts have proved that this decision is very wise, and he thinks he can brag about it for half a year.

Thinking to himself, seeing his nephew wandering around to his side, he asked angrily, "Tell me, what do you want to do?"

Yan Changqing winked: "Let's go, go fishing."

Fishing was supposed to be a fun thing, but he was dragged away by his nephew, and in less than a month, Yan Erhe is already planning to quit the bad habit of fishing.

When they left the village and walked towards the river, Yan Changqing began to explain the purpose of coming: "Second Uncle, I plan to earn money to buy meat, let's partner up!"

Yan Erhe looked disdainful: "You? Making money? Hehe!"

Yan Changqing was confident in convincing him: "I've been practicing Erhu for almost a month, and I'm going to perform in the county town. You take me there, let's find a place to sit on the side of the street, set up a plate and perform, and we'll split half the money if we can make money."

In fact, it only took 20 days in total. The progress bar of the first-level skill of playing Erhu has passed halfway. It is currently the skill with the longest progress bar. It is longer than sleeping, eating and walking. Can you believe it?
Originally, Yan Changqing planned to practice a skill that was full at level one, and see if there was any change at level two.

But he can afford to wait, Yang Zhili's erhu can't afford to wait.

The horse hair on the bow has been broken once, and the strings obviously won't last long...not just the strings, but the whole erhu obviously won't last long.

So Yan Changqing must earn money as soon as possible, first buy an erhu.

For the new erhu, he was very patient: "Second uncle, listen to me, don't look at me, I have only practiced for a month, and my erhu is not bad at all. Listen later, if you don't say anything else, you can definitely go to the street to perform. Besides, it doesn’t cost money to try it, even if you earn [-] cents, it’s enough for you to buy a fishhook, isn’t it? How much is earned!”

Try not to spend money, how much is earned?
Yan Erhe's heart began to move, he walked and thought, and before Yan Changqing showed by the river, he waved his hand: "Don't hold back, I have a headache after listening to it for half a month. It is not impossible to try it, anyway, I am now It sounds like you're doing pretty well..."

Yan Changqing saw him thinking, and encouraged him from the side: "Think about it, let's go to the county first, if we earn more, we can change to an erhu, and then go to a place with a lot of rich people. In the future, we will definitely be able to eat meat every now and then. .”

Yan Erhe curled his lips: "In our small county, do you still expect to make money playing the erhu? And make a lot of money? It's just a dream!"

Yan Changqing actually knew there was a place to go, but the place was too far away, and the two families couldn't get together a bicycle, so it was unrealistic to go too far.

Just continue to promise: "No matter how much I earn, I will get half and half. I am a child, and it must be strange for people to see that a child of my age can play the string. If someone sees it, someone may give him money. What he earns is for nothing. What a deal !"

"It's a bit far to go to the county town!" Yan Erhe was a little entangled, and he was happy to earn some money, even a few cents. "It's at least fifty miles from us to the county seat, and you can't go very far. I have to carry you on my back..."

As long as Yan Erhe is reliable, he can't agree to Yan Changqing.

Taking a six-year-old kid to perform on the street, how unreliable people can do this?

However, Yan Erhe is only [-] years old, and now he has begun to consider the difficulties in the actual operation, so Yan Changqing strikes while the iron is hot and offers reliable advice: "We can borrow a bicycle."

With a reminder, Yan Erhe immediately had an idea: "Qi Jin, you said, can we borrow your aunt's bicycle?"

"That's for sure." Yan Changqing strongly supported it.

Yan Changqing's aunt is Yan Dahai's younger sister, Yan Erhe's older sister, who married into the town a few years ago. Although grandma often said that her uncle was unreliable, and it made her look angry, Yan Changqing knew that this Uncle is still very reliable.

My uncle's father was an employee of the county cotton factory, and that was a solid job. When my uncle was young, he was not very serious for a while.But it won't be long before the general environment improves and there are more people doing business, my uncle will become a small expert in getting rich. After all kinds of twists and turns, after several ups and downs, he will eventually become wealthy.

The main reason is that people are also loyal, never dislike the poor and love the rich, and don't forget to help relatives after making money in business.

Yan Changqing knew why the second uncle was hesitant. It was simply because he felt that his uncle was from the town, and his aunt was from the family when she married. When borrowing things, it always feels like a poor relative coming to the door.

He insinuated and reminded: "I haven't seen my aunt for a long time, I want her to taste the fish I caught..."

Yan Erhe immediately felt that this matter was not difficult, after all, it was his nephew who wanted to see his aunt, and he did not go there empty-handed.

Afterwards, the two continued to discuss, it was twenty miles from Dayan Village to the town, and Yan Changqing's small body could not go that far.

Yan Erhe has a way. Not far from Dayan Village, there is a brick kiln factory. People in the village raise horses to earn money by pulling bricks with horse-drawn carts.

The two of them can first take a carriage to the kiln factory, then take the kiln factory to the tractor in the town, go to the town to borrow a bicycle to go to the county town, and then do street art to earn money to buy meat.

Plan pass!
……

Before dawn the next morning, Yan Changqing and Yan Erhe had breakfast, boarded a horse-drawn carriage with a tail missing a strand of hair, and set off for the kiln factory.

The owner of the carriage is an elder called Sibo by Yan Changqing, and he is reluctant to ride in the carriage—the horse needs to pull the carriage for a day, so he should cherish it.

Yan Erhe was even more embarrassed to ride in the car, and walked in front of the car with a few fish that hadn't completely died. Yan Changqing was holding the newly replaced erhu with horse hair on the car, and there were half a snakeskin bag of vegetables beside him. Brought by my aunt's house.

A bundle of wheat straw is Yan Changqing's seat cushion. This bundle of straw is used to pull the cart on the road, and the cart cannot get on the muddy ground, so it is placed under the wheel.

Since it wasn't designed for people to sit on, it naturally didn't have much comfort, especially since Yan Changqing was only wearing a thin trouser top, so it was inevitable that it would be a little scratchy.

Anyway, better than walking.

It's just that the fourth uncle walks a little awkwardly, and his legs are obviously a little weak. Yan Changqing is very embarrassed, but also a little lucky, thanks to his own horse, otherwise he may not be able to continue working today.

But the horses that pull the carts cannot be blamed either.

Even if it's the owner, if you wrap a pair of scissors around the back of someone's buttocks, pull their tail and move them up with the scissors, it's normal that it can't help kicking it! ?
The carriage dangled to the kiln factory, and the kiln factory was already in full swing.

The weather is hot in summer, and people have to work early.

Yan Erhe took a pack of Baisong cigarettes bought for [-] cents, and talked to the master who drove the tractor. After asking a few people, he found a car to go to the town.

This time Yan Changqing didn't need to sit on the straw, he sat on the second uncle's lap.

Yan Erhe sat on the fender above the wheel next to the tractor driver, hugged Yan Changqing, a few fish that had completely stopped moving, and a bag of vegetables were hung on the front railing of the truck.

Let's go, go to town.

……

Yan Changqing almost forgot what this town once looked like. A street more than 100 meters long, most of which are low tile-roofed houses. , which was the former supply and marketing cooperative opposite the Zhengfu.

The streets are also dirt roads, and the raised cobblestones prove that this is a repaired road.

The houses with green bricks and green tiles are dusty, and most of the sheds are made of wood, some of which have turned black.

Most of the people on the street wore gray clothes, and most of the white denim shirts were not so white.

I don't know if it's because the sun hasn't risen yet, but Yan Changqing just feels that the town is full of gray, old and dilapidated.

When he was about to pass by the gate of the town primary school, Yan Changqing took a special look at a low-rise family opposite.

It was a shop selling scales. An old man with a gray beard half a foot long was washing his beard seriously at the door. Master Yang Zhili had told Yan Changqing that his surname was Zhao and he could play the erhu.

Come back when you have money!
I arrived at my aunt's house in a blink of an eye. I was lucky and just caught up with the beloved scene of beating children.

After putting down the fish and vegetables, Yan Changqing admired the scene.

The cousin of the aunt's family is only one year younger than Yan Changqing, but his naughty level is much higher.Only five years old, already a well-known troublemaker with a radius of hundreds of meters, people in the rivers and lakes call him 'black leather egg'.

In the morning, my aunt and uncle said that when school starts, let the little black preserved egg go to kindergarten (it is also called Yuhong class these days).Because my home is on the east side of the town and the kindergarten is on the west side of the street, it's a bit far away, this guy doesn't want to go, and he's threatening his parents with not eating.

After Yan Changqing said hello to his uncle's family, he began to persuade his aunt hypocritically: "Girl, stop beating. My brother is still young. I was told by my father for fishing a few days ago. In fact, I just watched you guys do it." Tired of work, I want to catch some fish for you to eat. By the way, cousin, do you want to eat fish or not..."

"What the fuck, I won't go to school, I won't go to school even if I'm beaten to death..." The little black leather egg is a rare fat kid in this era, not tall and a bit dark, neither old nor short-tempered, They are being beaten next to each other, and whoever talks to him now will hate him.

It's cool to hate people for a while, and it's easy to be beaten.

Auntie gave another two slaps sharply: "Speak well!"

In Yan Changqing's heart, there was a feeling of revenge.

He remembered what happened in his previous life. It wasn't that Yan Changqing held a grudge, but that this guy was really a professional scammer.

Yan Changqing remembers very clearly that when he came to play in the town during the summer vacation when he graduated from primary school, this cousin told him that whoever bullied him.

At that time, Yan Changqing acted very loyally, beat up whoever was bullying him, pushed the brat into the lotus pond next to the junior high school, and snatched a bamboo sword toy from that boy .

As a result, the family's mother came over.

It's nothing, Yan Changqing was dumbfounded when junior high school started, so-and-so's mother was the head teacher of the first grade of junior high school.Although he didn't teach his own classes, Yan Changqing also hid from people when he saw them for a while.

The point is, look back and say that the cousin who was bullied and that so-and-so are still good buddies, don't mention how much fun they are having...

When Yan Changqing was in high school, there was another gang fight, which was also a bad idea of ​​this guy.If Yan Changqing hadn't led a few people to run fast that time, his high school career would have ended early.

So now... he's still a kid!
