Return to 1983 Hunting Xing'an Mountains

Chapter 468: Xu Laonian is still cool and carefree

On the side, Liu Daming started the engine. At Wang Hu's reminder, he shifted gears and slowly stepped on the accelerator, holding the handlebars tightly.

The thumping sound of the engine made people very excited. Wang Biao and Liu Tianen, who were sitting on the bumpers on both sides, clapped their hands and smiled.

Seeing this, Xu Feng urged Sun Lianfang, "Sister Fang, let's go!"

Sun Lianfang kicked the car and said, "Hold on tight!"

She shifted the gears, stepped on the accelerator and drove the donkey out. She was very familiar with motorcycles, so driving the donkey was easy for her. The only problem was turning was a little difficult because Xu Feng and Li Jinyu were sitting in the front bed. She could only pull hard with her arms and drive the donkey out of the yard.

It was Liu Daming’s first time riding a motorcycle, but riding backwards did not require him to maintain balance. He just had to hold the handlebars and prevent the motorcycle from tipping over.

The two donkeys were riding backwards and forwards in the courtyard, and turned directly to the east entrance of the village.

Liu Lizhen, Yang Shuhua and others were standing outside the house. After looking through the window, they laughed and said, "It's quite convenient to ride a donkey backwards. Daming can carry four people on one cart, and Lianfang can carry two people on one cart. It will be much more convenient to ride a donkey backwards to pull firewood in the future."

"Not bad, Erning is quite capable, he came up with this thing."

Han Fengjiao lifted the door curtain and asked Xu Ning, who was sitting in the east room drinking tea, "Er Ning, how much does it cost to ride a donkey?"

"We didn't spend any money. I gave the trick to our family, and others gave it to us as a gift. But we have to tell others that we spent five or six hundred yuan."

Wu Qiuxia was stunned. "Five or six hundred for a donkey?"

"OK."

"Oh my god, it's quite expensive. Big sister, Erning is really capable. He saved our family more than a thousand dollars."

Liu Lizhen said with a smile: "He just does things when he has nothing to do. He gets upset if he doesn't study something for a day."

"..."

People in the outer room and the east room were chatting.

Sun Lianfang and Liu Daming, who were riding donkeys backwards, looked quite cool. Wang Biao, Xu Feng and others, who were sitting on both sides of the guardrail, felt the wind blowing on their faces and let out shrill screams.

On the street, many forestry workers who had just got off work stared at the two strange donkeys riding backwards. When they saw that it was Liu Daming, they raised their hands to greet him. Liu Daming deliberately slowed down and said with a smile: "This is the donkey riding backwards. We sell them on the street and in the city."

"How much is it? I think this thing is quite convenient. How far can it travel on a tank of gas?"

"Two trips to the street will definitely be no problem, but the donkey has to be custom-made, about 500 to 600 yuan. If you know someone who knows you, you can bargain."

"Ah, it's so expensive?"

Liu Daming saw that they had no interest, so he smiled and said, "I'll take a walk in front."

He continued to ride forward on his donkey. Many people were watching along the way. When he was only 20 meters away from the old Chang's house, he saw Sun Lianfang turn the donkey around. The crowd moved a few steps, and Liu Tianen, who was sitting on the guardrail, shouted, "My uncle and second uncle!"

Liu Daming waved and greeted, "Brother-in-law! Second brother!"

"Uncle!"

At this moment, Xu Laonian and Wang Erli were turning their heads to watch Sun Lianfang turn around. When they heard the noise, they turned around and looked, and immediately grinned.

At first, they were a little surprised to see the two people riding donkeys upside down coming at lightning speed, wondering where these weird creatures came from. But just as they were puzzled, the talkative Xu Feng had already explained to them.

When they heard that it was Xu Ning who got it back on the street, they immediately showed smiles of surprise. According to their thinking, since it was Xu Ning who got it back, it must have been free of charge!

When Liu Daming stepped on the brakes, a long "click" sound was made and he stopped next to Xu Laonian.

He stepped forward and asked directly, "Is this our own home?"

"Well, it has to be our own home."

Wang Erli said with a smile: "Brother, does this thing look like urine? Although it looks a bit rough in appearance, it can definitely haul goods!"

"Not so good, second brother. Look at the four of them in the truck bed. It's so easy for me to turn..."

At this time, Sun Lianfang rode his donkey upside down and stopped behind Xu Laonian. At the same time, five or six forestry workers gathered around him. One of them asked, "If you install a motorcycle engine on the frame, it will run by itself?"

"This thing is pretty cool."

"Where did you put it?"

Liu Daming said: "I got it from the street. There is a place on the street that specializes in this kind of thing."

"It costs a lot of money, right?"

"Five or six hundred yuan. If you know someone, maybe you can get it cheaper."

Liu Daming and Dalaba often go to collect meat and sell goods, and they have become good at speaking, but he still speaks in a foul way sometimes, which is due to his personality.

"So expensive? It's almost as much as my annual salary."

Wang Hu said with a smile: "Uncle Ge, you have to spend the money you earn. How convenient is this thing? You don't have to carry bags of firewood, corn, potatoes, and sweet potatoes home, and you don't have to borrow a wheelbarrow from everywhere."

Wang Erli said: "Not bad! I think it's quite convenient."

Sun Lianfang said: "In the future, all the things will be pulled by cars. Even the donkeys raised at home can't catch up with it. Some donkeys have died of exhaustion. But this piece of iron will never die of exhaustion no matter how much work it does."

"Yeah, Lianfang is very clear about it, and she is a young person. We, the old guys with rolling eyes, need to learn from her."

After Xu Laonian finished speaking, he patted Liu Daming's arm and said, "You get off, I'll ride around."

Liu Daming raised his leg and landed on the ground, saying, "Brother-in-law, please be careful."

"Hey, what does this thing have? I can fiddle with it with one hand!" Xu Laonian was quite confident.

Wang Biao, Liu Tianen, and Li Mantang, who were sitting in the front carriage, jumped out immediately. Xu Laonian glanced at them and asked, "Why don't you sit down?"

Wang Biao covered his leg and said, "Uncle, my legs are numb from sitting, I'll just walk back..."

"Yeah, me too." Liu Tianen and Li Mantang nodded heavily.

Xu Laonian looked at Wang Erli and saw him waving his hands and said, "Brother, I'm carsick..."

"You're carsick, hurry up and get in the car! I'll take you for a ride and let you feel the feeling of freedom! Come on, don't be so slow..."

Xu Laonian grabbed Wang Erli's arm and pushed him into the front truck bed. Wang Erli sat down cross-legged and held the guardrails on both sides with his hands.

Seeing Xu Laonian riding on the donkey, Liu Daming pointed at Sun Lianfang's donkey and said, "Mantang, Biao, let's see how heavy this donkey can pull. Hurry up and get on the donkey. I'll check if the tire is flat."

"Okay!" Wang Biao, Liu Tianen and Li Mantang were very happy and sat on the bumper. But Xu Laonian was not happy after seeing this, "Why are you sitting in this car? Are you afraid that I will drive you into a ditch?"

"Dad, please just ride on. I want to take a look at your back as you ride your bike."

When Xu Laonian heard his daughter's request, he immediately became excited and said with a smile: "Then you have to watch carefully, your dad is riding a donkey backwards, so cool!"

Afterwards, Xu Laonian half-heartedly shifted gears and turned the accelerator, then rode the donkey backwards and suddenly rushed out half a meter, scaring Wang Erli so much that he shouted, "Brother! Stop messing around!"

"Hahaha, you scared this guy!" Xu Laonian stepped on the brake and said, "Let me try to see if the brakes work. Let's go."

Xu Laonian stepped on the accelerator and drove forward. Liu Daming waved and said, "Lianfang, you guys go back too. Huzi and I will walk back slowly."

"Uncle, you two can get in the car too. This car has plenty of room."

"No, I just saw that the tires are flat, and I estimate that it can only pull 600-700 kilograms."

Wang Hu waved his hand: "Go back quickly, look at me..."

He stopped talking before he finished speaking. Xu Laonian, who was riding a donkey in a very cool manner in front of him, let out an exclamation.

"Oh, fuck me!"

Wang Erli, who was sitting in the truck bed, was terrified and shouted hurriedly: "Brake! Brake! Release the accelerator!"

Because Xu Laonian was riding the donkey backwards so coolly, he drove faster and faster with more energy. While Liu Daming and others were chatting, they arrived at Old Xu's house.

But Chai Bing's Dongfeng car was parked in front of Old Xu's house. Xu Laonian wanted to brake to slow down, but he didn't release the accelerator with his right hand, so the speed of the car only slowly decreased, and it didn't stop completely...

The brakes of the donkey ride backwards rely entirely on the rubber iron pipes under the two front wheels. The friction between the rubber iron pipes and the two front wheels can slow down the vehicle. However, Xu Laonian held the accelerator tightly and did not let go. The rear wheel still had power, so the donkey ride backwards continued to move forward.

Seeing that he was about to hit the rear of the Dongfeng bus, Xu Laonian's hair, which was messed up by the wind, and his gnashing teeth expression turned into panic at this moment.

He made up his mind and turned the handlebar to the left. At the same time, he released the accelerator after hearing Wang Erli's reminder. The speed of the car slowed down slightly, but he would definitely crash if he continued going at this speed. He had two choices at this time. One was to jump over the Dongfeng car and continue going west. But no one knew what was going on in his head, he chose the second choice!

He wanted to use the guardrail of the donkey to rub against the fences of the Wei and Xu families in order to slow down, but he miscalculated.

The reason why the donkey is difficult to control is that its steering is too flexible. If your arms are weak or you lose control, there is only one outcome, that is, the frame will fall sideways to the rear of the front bucket...

"Oh, fuck me!"

As soon as Xu Laonian turned, his arm was swept away by the fence, and then the front of the truck bed hit the fence. Wang Erli flew out of the truck bed directly. There was a dull bang, and Wang Erli knelt in the truck bed with his legs, holding the fence with his hands, and his head hit the wooden fence.

Looking at Xu Laonian again, he was much more relaxed. He fell off the seat, and due to inertia, when he was about to fly out, he turned around and jumped off the bike. This choice was undoubtedly correct, because if he didn't jump out, his chest would easily hit the handlebars, which was really painful.

Xu Laonian jumped to the right very experiencedly, intending to use the wooden fence for leverage, but his arms were too short and he failed to grab anything. He immediately fell to the ground, his hands on the ash, and his head went straight into the ash pile...

"puff!"

Xu Laonian raised his head quickly, spat out a mouthful of ash, then looked at Wang Erli and shouted, "Erli! Erli! How are you?"

Wang Erli sat back in the truck bed, leaning against the wooden fence. He turned around with a sad face and said, "Brother, what are you doing? Look at what you built for me..."

The forest workers who were returning home saw the scene of Xu Laonian falling headfirst, and they were all shocked.

Xu Laonian, who was so carefree and yearning for freedom just now, now has his face covered with ash. Fortunately, the ash from Old Wei's family was not newly poured, otherwise he would have been burned and disfigured!

"Oh, fuck..."

"Brother Xu, are you two okay?"

The forestry workers quickly gathered around, and when they saw the ridiculous appearance of the two, they were so shocked that they shouted "Fuck!" However, they were not idle, and they helped Xu Laonian and Wang Erli out of the sea of ​​suffering, but they fell into another sea of ​​suffering!
Xu Laonian, with his face covered in ash, was very stubborn: "Nothing happened, Erli and I were just joking."

The forest workers were suddenly speechless and had no idea what to do. It was really because Xu Laonian’s words were too harsh!

Wang Erli, who was covering his head, did not say anything. Normally, the two brothers could quarrel however they wanted, but they must not lose face for their eldest brother in front of outsiders.

At this moment, Xu Ning, Chai Bing, Guan Lei, Li Fuqiang, Liu Lizhen and others who heard the noise also rushed out. As soon as they arrived at the courtyard, they saw Wang Erli's face covered in blood. They quickened their pace and walked out of the gate.

Li Fuqiang exclaimed: "Uncle! Are you okay? Oh my god... why is my uncle's head full of blood!"

Liu Lizhen frowned, ignoring the forestry workers who were watching the fun, and pointed at Xu Laonian angrily and cursed: "Go ahead and do it! Do it to death! You have the nerve to fight with a child and you are riding a donkey! You deserve it!"

Xu Laonian was scolded so much that he lowered his head and dared not say a word. He was too embarrassed to see anyone.

At this time, Lao Wei, who was cooking in the house, saw so many people gathered at his door. Combined with the loud bang just now, he also rushed out of the house.

Liu Lizhen had just finished scolding Xu Laonian, and then pointed at Wang Erli and said, "Hurry up and send Erli to Zhang Yinshan's house to take a look! What are you thinking about here?"

When the forest workers saw Liu Lizhen gritting her teeth, they felt embarrassed to continue watching the fun, so they said goodbye and left.

He just looked back at Xu Laonian as he walked, then turned his head back and muttered quietly. There was definitely nothing nice about what they said, but Xu Ning vaguely heard a few words...

If Wang Biao were asked to compose a poem, he would write down the following: "Laonian's Demonic Poems". The main text is: Lao Nian once flirted with Diao Chan at night and got a big bloody bump on his forehead. Now he is riding a donkey headfirst and his face is covered with ash.

After Xu Laonian saw the forestry workers retreating, he slowly raised his head and said, "Well, well...it would be great if we could ask Zhang Yinshan to come over to our house."

"You still have some shame? Ah! Why are you pretending to be so arrogant, you old bastard!"

Liu Lizhen cursed again. Han Fengjiao, who was standing by, supported Wang Erli with a look of heartache. The couple was very affectionate, just like Liu Lizhen and Xu Laonian, but in a different way...

Yang Shuhua, Wang Shujuan, and Wu Qiuxia covered their mouths and didn't dare to laugh out loud, but Xu Ning couldn't help laughing when he heard his mother's words. When Xu Laonian found out, he glared at Xu Ning and asked angrily, "What are you laughing at?"

Xu Ning didn't even need to explain. Liu Lizhen pinched her waist and defended him, "My son wants to laugh, what's it to you? No matter how much he laughs, he didn't stick his head into the ashes! Go home and die quickly, don't embarrass yourself."

Xu Laonian was hit twice and pushed into the courtyard. Wang Erli followed closely behind his elder brother. After being beaten up by Xu Laonian, he wouldn't be able to hold his head up in the village for a while.

Just at this moment, Sun Lianfang rode his donkey backwards and stopped steadily beside the crowd, in sharp contrast to Xu Laonian who was riding his donkey backwards.

Xu Feng jumped out of the car and looked up. When he saw Xu Laonian and Wang Erli walking into the courtyard, he was shocked and had a lot of question marks in his head.

"Dad, why did you make my second uncle like this? Didn't you just say that you look so cool when you ride a donkey upside down?"

Xu Ning took the opportunity to say, "Isn't this guy just as cool as a pile of ash on his face?"

"Hahahaha..." Everyone couldn't help it and burst into laughter.

Xu Laonian turned around and glared at him angrily, then turned around and walked into the house stubbornly. Wang Erli covered his head with one hand and walked into the house holding Han Fengjiao with the other hand.
