military marriage

Chapter 12
1
It is a very pleasant thing to read love novels and immerse yourself in its romantic stories, reveling in the aura of true feelings and nature that it conveys, but how can the communication between people in real life be like the two in the novel? How fascinating is the story of love and happiness?
The intense love that initially drew each other together, those once-sacred shapes, are temporary.Chuanlong said that love should not only have eyes and eloquence, but must first be down-to-earth, and then you can travel through the clouds and reach the moon.Only when Yusuo performed his filial piety for him in his hometown, and he devoted himself to making contributions in the military camp and making a piece of the world, could they have a brilliant future.

Hu Chuanlong and Zhao Yusuo used these goals and concepts to willingly take on the most desolate and loneliest men and women assigned to perform useful duties, without complaint: Chuanlong went to the army to open up the world, and Yusuo was willing to stay in Huwawan , to avoid Chuanlong's worries: couples who are not eligible to join the army must accept separation.

Yusuo sent Chuanlong to the town, and told him to do so until Chuanlong got on the long-distance bus before turning back with tears in his eyes.She had just returned to the entrance of the village when she met Sheng Gen, De Gen and his wife, San Dae, and a pig butcher from another village. While smoking, they were looking at two black pigs in the grass, and the two sides were bargaining.

The pig butcher said to Sheng Gen: "Don't listen to other nonsense. After all, this pig is fed by your family. The key is to make up your mind and convince you to nod: you sell these two pigs to me together. Thousands of 800 yuan, I don’t owe you a penny. Pay the money with one hand and lead the pig with the other hand. What a neat thing!”

"Add more, two thousand!" Jinju took down the cigarette in her mouth, held it between her fingers, walked over and patted the butcher's thick belly and said, "Don't be stingy, Wang Zhujiang, look at your fat body." , If you have a belly full of fat, you can’t make a lot of money. If you add a little more to this pig, you will take it away. If you earn more or less, it’s not that you make a big profit. We feed people from the beginning of the year to the end of the year to make a small profit?”

The pig butcher was annoyed: "It's really easy to put it, the current pork is only four yuan a catty, and your brother's two pigs add up to only five hundred catties, right? This pig is worth 2000 yuan at most. I told you clearly, I will earn you Brother’s is less than 200 yuan.”

"I'll take his uncle's words, two thousand, two thousand you take away!" Sheng Gen said.

The two sides were deadlocked and refused to budge.

De Gen breathed out a puff of smoke, kicked the weeds under his feet and said, "Let's save it for the New Year and kill it yourself? You can sell it for a lot more money, and you can get some pig intestines, belly and blood. Killing it yourself is much better than selling it now." !"

"That's right...it makes sense..." A violent cough interrupted Third Father's words, his face turned purple from suffocation, and he had to bend down and cough violently.

"What's the matter, don't suffocate!" Jin Ju eagerly beat the back of the third father, the third father recovered, and immediately stood up, displaying the majesty of the elders, "Growing roots, listen to half of people's persuasion, This pig is not for sale, save it for the Chinese New Year!"

"It's been fed for a whole year, and the Chinese New Year is only a month away, and I don't care about feeding it for a few more days! Keep it for killing, keep it for killing!" Jin Ju also advocated.

Yu Suo was amused by Uncle's appearance, and he thought about it, and couldn't help but interjected, "Uncle, should we sell these two pigs now? It's appropriate to get some cash, Chuanlong told me when he left..."

Sheng Gen gave Yusuo a look: "You ignorant thing, you are a patient who can't see ghosts! Chuanlong is a soldier, what does he know about farmers?"

Yusuo also argued with reason: "When Chuanlong left, he said that the two pigs in the family would be sold if the bid reached [-]. Every household would kill pigs during the Chinese New Year, and pork would be even less valuable..."

Degen stared: "You're so poor? Can't you store rotten cakes in the kennel? Isn't it good to kill those pig intestines and pig blood after the Chinese New Year? You haven't fed this pig for a day!"

"Don't join in the fun!" Jin Ju said, "Just manage Chuanlong well. You're an expert in such trivial things as talking about love, but you're an outsider in selling pigs and killing pigs. Don't interrupt too much, you If you really don’t have time to spare, go to Murakami Village to inquire about the laughing stock you left behind.”

In the cold weather of early winter and the warmth of the sun, going up the mountain to collect firewood is the most solemn work of the villagers.Talent is a call, and most of the men in the village will follow Hu Degen up the mountain to dig tree stalks to prepare for the fire in the severe winter; most women will use a seven-tooth iron rake to carry two dustpans in groups, and the golden chrysanthemum Take the lead, hit some yellow silk grass on the mountain to cook for the fire.

Jinju was originally very reluctant to let Yusuo follow her, but thinking about using Yusuo's naked body, it would be a good idea to add some jokes and excitement, so she said: "Yusuo, I will take you to carry the mountain today. Chai thick there, leeward, you follow us, I’m good enough for you! But there is one thing, you can’t comb in front of me, you have to be behind me, do you hear me?”

A group of women's footsteps, rushing across the wilderness like the wind, the yellow silk grass crawled in a line, and when their footsteps went away, they raised their heads in a line again, forming golden waves in the mountains.

Yu Suo didn't dare to blatantly refuse any conditions they offered. In her weak, sentimental and fantasy nature, her ignorance of the mountains as a choice for secular life, and her fear of the unknown insects and snakes in the depths of the mountains made her She was afraid of going into the mountains alone.Therefore, she doesn't care too much about the jokes that everyone makes fun of her, or the world she owns in her heart always makes her ignore the harm in reality.

The back mountain is a good place to gather firewood. There are steep mountains covered with fir trees in the front and back, but there is a large open and low flat land in the middle.In summer, when the top of the mountain is in shadow, there is plenty of sunshine in the valley. In winter, when the strong wind whimpers like electric current among the branches on the top of the mountain, the bottom is relatively stable.A ridge of luxuriant firewood that is waist-deep, like ripe wheat, sends out a joyful invitation in the breeze.In the fir forest swaying with the wind on the top of the mountain, the yellow and red dry pine needles fell in the hollow like rain flowers and stones, and spread on the golden thatch, which is really beautiful.

Jinju, an expert, said that these firewood can't help being burned, and the fumes from the fire cannons will kill people, and the remaining ash will be stuck in the furnace to annoy people!The ones that are truly non-burning, resistant to burning, and good at burning are pine needles, and all of them can be burned at once with a little fire.Jin Ju put the dustpan in a place sheltered from the wind, took off the green towel around her head, spit a few mouthfuls into her palms, rubbed her palms together a few times, and picked up the iron rake to send it away. Go out, bend your knees slightly forward, keep the rake tines close to the ground, and pull the iron rake's tail with both hands, and the dry silk grass with pine needles between them is gathered under your feet in rolls.She stood still in the center, and the iron rake was combing the withered grass in all directions, and a small hill was piled up under her feet in a short while.

Yu Suo straightened his waist, heaved back and forth following the iron rake, but there was very little firewood collected under his feet.

The women moved their feet in the order combed by the iron rake, re-selected a central point to stand on, and fiddled in all directions, and a small hill was piled up under their feet.

Jinju counted, and she sorted out five or six piles of firewood in a short while.So I took a breath in a calm manner, blinked at my companions, look quickly, look quickly, I, Yusuo, act like a bug catcher, I always thought that my eighth wife was the stupidest woman in the village, unexpectedly There are people who are more stupid than Ba ​​Po.

The bald lady Chun, sister-in-law Xiuzhi, Qinwa... gathered together, looked at Yu Suo's clumsy appearance, and laughed and said, "Don't tell me, it's not that the whole family doesn't enter the house."She is still young now, Miao Zi looks better, otherwise she really can't compare to Ba Po Qiu.

Jin Ju kicked Yusuo's dustpan with her feet, and the dustpan ran downhill along the slope. They laughed and shouted: "It's over, it's over! Yusuo, the wind blows your dustpan upside down." Run away, hurry up, hurry up!"

Yu Suo looked up, put down the iron rake in his hand, and hurriedly ran to catch the rolling dustpan.

Chun Bald Niang felt very happy and enjoyable.He ran over and kicked the iron rake of Gun Yusuo, and hid behind the fir tree.Everyone shouted together on the mountain: "Yusuo, Yusuo, hurry up, your iron rake was blown away by the wind, this way, hurry up!"

They looked at Yu Suo like a frightened bird, running around futilely in a panic. They were so happy that they trembled all over from laughing, couldn't straighten their backs from laughing, and laughed so hard that they could not hold back their pee. He untied his trouser belt, squatted in the grass, laughed up and down, and the grass was wet in patches like it was raining.

Yu Suo came to his senses, packed up his tools, and silently combed some thatch on the ridge at the foot of the mountain.

"Look, look, she's grown cunning too!" Bald Lady Chun couldn't get enough of it, "I can't play tricks on her anymore!"

"I don't believe in this evil!" After urinating, Jinju stood up from behind the tree, held the waist of her trousers in one hand, and grabbed a piece of tree root that was sunburned and limp and covered with green moss after being drenched in the rain with the other hand, and turned towards her. Yu Suo threw it away: "Yusuo, run! Snake, such a big and poisonous cobra, it's terrible to bite!"

"Run, run!" Everyone understood, and shouted to the bottom of the valley, "Snake, poisonous snake!"

Yusuo wanted to get more firewood so that he wouldn't be embarrassed in front of them, and wouldn't be looked down upon by his parents-in-law and sister-in-law.Hearing the shouts of the crowd, when I looked up, I suddenly saw a long black snake with piercing mung bean eyes, jumping into the grass and rushing towards her, so frightened that three souls lost two souls and threw it away. The iron rake in his hand screamed, like a mindless fly, scurrying around in the grass, trying to run faster, but his feet were entangled in the grass, he couldn't move, and let out an unconscious scream...

This effect was so good that the women were surprised. They laughed so hard that they stirred the firewood under their feet and the branches around them trembled.

Chuntu Niang laughed so that phlegm flowed from her mouth to her chin: "Oh, I'm so laughing!" She was so excited that she jumped up and down in the grass, clapping her hands on Jinju's body, "Short-lived. Lost!" You, a woman, can figure it out! Only you, a woman, can figure it out! Smarter than a ghost!"

The "quack" laughter gushed out from the women's wide-open mouths, one after another, like the chorus of ten thousand frogs in the paddy field on a summer night...

Xiaochun couldn't help laughing.

"These mountain people have their own personalities! Hehe, I always thought that only us city people can tease and laugh at mountain village people." Xiaochun said, "Unexpectedly, mountain village people can play tricks on city people even better than us city people. !"

Xiaochun nodded: "Later, did they agree with you?"

"They tried every means to assimilate my behavior, threatening me like a huge wave from time to time! Not only were they playing tricks on collecting firewood, they met each other while doing laundry by the pond. They deliberately slapped the surface of the water with a mallet, watching me splash all over my body. Carnival in the water; we were hunting pig dishes together, and I first saw a piece of green onion pig vegetables by the side of the puddle, but they said they were poisonous, and the pigs would die if they ate them! As soon as I left, they rushed up and snatched them all up.”

"A group of wild women, who bully people and don't know how to cover up. What happened next?"

Later, although Yusuo was alone in the mountain village, he didn't want to always demean himself and repeat himself.Gradually, relying on their familiarity and grasp of the fields and the mountains, their superficial pranks prevented them from turning into terrifying waves in panic.They are even more relentless, forming the "law of wolf nature" in which you are one foot taller than your devil and their morals are taller.They blatantly snatched Yusuo my basket full of wild vegetables and said: "'The sun came out from the west? How could you have more than us? Could it be that you stole vegetables from people's homes and buried them under the ground? Shaking your head doesn't count, the duck's mouth is dead The hard ones are not considered hard, we have to see to believe."' They rummaged through Yusuo's wild vegetable basket, threw fresh and tender pig vegetables on the ground and said: "'What a joke, it's all poisonous weeds, I hope you can get rid of it." You have poisoned the two pigs that my eighth mother-in-law worked so hard to feed!" 'Yusuo, as soon as I turned around, they picked up the pig vegetables on the ground and took them for themselves!
