The Tale of the Ghost Eyes

Chapter 20: Ghost jealousy (2)

Views:

Early in the morning the next day, just after we had breakfast, Zhao Laohei hurriedly came over and called us to go. Besides Zhao Jie and Zhao Yuan standing with Zhao Laohei, there were also people I didn't want to watch. Arrived Xiaochuner.

So when they entered my house, I subconsciously hid behind my mother. Zhao Jie and Zhao Yuan were also standing four or five meters away from Xiaochuner. It was Zhao Jie and Zhao Yuan who would scare them away directly.

After all, the fact that Xiaochun'er carried his mother's head is well known in our village.

Xiaochun'er had a smirk of "hehe" on her face, and it seemed like his smile was facing me alone.

Seeing that Zhao Laohei brought Xiaochun'er in, Master Liu said, "Okay, everyone is here, we should set off."

When I thought that I would be sitting on the same tractor with Xiaochun'er for a while, I went to ask my mother, "Mom, can I not go?"

My mother patted me on the head and said, "Little Yong, it's alright with your father, Master Liu, and your Uncle Zhao here."

As soon as I heard what my mother said, I knew that there must be some explosions, because if I was acting like a spoiled child, my mother would definitely slap me and tell me what to do, but once my mother spoke to me calmly , then this is probably something strange.

My dad simply packed up his things, then picked up an old leather bag, dragged me, and followed Master Liu, Zhao Laohei and others out the door.

Because Zhao Jie and Zhao Yuan didn't want to go with Xiao Chun'er, they both came to my side, and Zhao Jie whispered into my ear, "Xiao Yong, I don't know what's wrong, my father has to let us go with me today. Lijiayu, I have to go with Xiaochun'er, really, look at Xiaochuner's stinky body..."

When Zhao Jie was talking, Xiaochuner turned to look at us, and Zhao Jie shut up immediately. Zhao Yuan and I were stunned for a while and didn't dare to answer. He said: "I think my father is afraid to sell us, this year's crops are not good..."

Before Zhao Yuan could finish speaking, my father coughed and said, "Okay, Xiaoyuan, don't make any guesses. We're here to see you bored at home during the summer vacation and take you out to get some air."

My father is the teacher of the third grade of elementary school and also Zhao Yuan's teacher, so Zhao Yuan listened to my father's words, and quickly said "um", "Well, listen to Teacher Shi."

I was a little naughty next to me, and I also said something like my father: "Xiaoyuan is really a good student, she knows how to listen to the teacher."

As soon as I finished speaking, Zhao Yuan came over and grabbed my ear and said loudly, "Tell me again, I'm your sister, my name is sister, is your name Xiaoyuan?"

I asked my father for help, but my father let go of my hand and rushed to the side of Master Liu and Zhao Laohei, obviously not interested in the slapstick on our children's side.

Seeing that my father didn't help me, I asked Zhao Jie for help: "Xiaojie, let's clean up your sister together, and you will be the boss of your family from now on."

Zhao Jie shook his head and said, "No, the two of us together are not my sister's size..."

There is a tractor road from our village to Lijiayu. The rest is fairly flat. In addition, the weather has been dry and it hasn't rained recently, so this road is still a long way to go, but there is a Xiaochuner who has been giggling on the tractor. , The three of us had no intention of making a fuss. We huddled together all the way, as if we were on guard for Xiaochun'er's sudden attack.

On the other hand, Xiaochuner was a small stool pushed by Master Liu and my father in front of the tractor bucket. Because this Xiaochuner was restless on the tractor, he jumped down happily when he didn't press him.

The speed of this tractor can't be said to be fast, but if it jumps off while advancing, it's not a joke if it falls.

The tractor drove for about half an hour, and we arrived at the nearby Lijiayu.

Where our village is located, the mountains are relatively flat, and the tops of the hills are only tens of meters high, but where Lijiayu is located, it happens to be at the foot of a high mountain, and although I am a child in the mountains, I can live to be six years old. This is the first time I have come to the foot of this high mountain, and usually I can only watch from a distance in our village.

So as soon as we got to the foot of the mountain, Zhao Yuan and Zhao Jie all seemed a little excited. Zhao Jie asked Zhao Yuan if this was the highest mountain in the world, and Zhao Yuan said, no, the highest mountain is Mount Everest, yes I don't know how many times this mountain is.

That was also the first time I heard about Mount Everest. I suddenly felt that Zhao Yuan was really literate and deserved to be the best student in the class.

After entering Lijiayu, Zhao Laohei took us to a family in the west of the village. The houses here are all built of mountain green stones, not like our village houses, which are red stones in the river, so seeing so many green stones. I couldn't help but wonder about the stone house. I only knew at that time that the house was made of blue stones.

The name of this village is Lijiayu, so the heads of households in this village are basically all surnamed Li, and there are only a few foreign households.

The head of the house we went to was called Li Jun, a middle-aged man in his forties and fifties. When we entered his house, he was squatting in the yard and weaving a vitex basket, and there were still other things on the east side of his yard. A cowshed, with four cows tied in it, was no small fortune at that time.

At the door of the main room, a woman about the same age as Li Jun was sitting. She was sitting on the bench, holding a long cigarette bag and pot in her hand, and was smoking. Not far from the door of the main room. There were also seven or eight free-range chickens.

Seeing us coming in, Li Jun put down the thorn basket with only one bottom in his hand, then got up and greeted him with a smile and said: "Oh, Lao Hei, Teacher Shi, why did you guys say it in advance? We were caught off guard."

Zhao Laohei was familiar with Li Jun, so he spoke first: "We came here today to bring Xiaochun'er over to show you, and also to understand the situation of your home on behalf of the village."

My father also said something: "In addition, I took the group of furry children out to let the wind out."

Li Jun looked at Xiaochun'er behind him and said, "What do you think about this person? I've seen Xiaochuner before. When I went to the countryside, I had to pass your village. Besides, Xiaochuner also came out of Shiliba Village. Ming'er's stupid dumb, how can I still not know him?"

Hearing Li Jun directly calling Xiaochun'er "dumb", Master Liu's brows could not help wrinkling, but my father leaned over to Master Liu and whispered, "Master Liu, don't worry, we call him that, It's not malicious, we country people are straight-minded, and sometimes we call it rude, and you've been with us for a long time, and you'll understand."

Master Liu smiled and nodded. Li Jun didn't notice Master Liu until he asked Zhao Laohei who he was. Zhao Laohei also introduced him honorably and said, "He is my uncle. It's less than one thousandth of that of my uncle."

Zhao Laohei is a well-known "yin and yang" (daoist, god stick) in our village, so after hearing what Zhao Laohei said, Li Jun also politely said to Master Liu: "Master, hello, alas, patronize Speak, go, sit in the house, old lady, pour water, pour water, prepare lunch, get some more dishes, and get some wine from my cellar."

Originally, Zhao Laohei wanted to say you're welcome, but he was interrupted by Master Liu waving his hand: "Well, well, we'll beg for mercy at noon today."

Li Jun's wife, although she smokes a bag of pots and doesn't look like she doesn't want to be a good person, the truth is just the opposite. She is very kind and generally knowledgeable. As soon as we enter the door, she smiles at us all the time, interjecting a few words from time to time, and They were all smiles of welcome.

After hearing Li Jun's order, she nodded again and again and said, "Don't worry, it's been a long time since we have so many people in our house. Let's have fun together today at noon (noon)."

Following the adults into the house, they started chatting about Xiaochun'er. Li Jun pointed to the next-door companion room and said, "I don't have a kid, but I have two daughters, and now they're married, so we usually just Two people, the crops in the field depend on these few cows, so someone has to take care of us. In addition, I usually make a vitex basket and go to the village to buy it, so I don't have enough time. My mother-in-law has a healthy body. It's not very good, and we can't take the cow up the mountain, so it's necessary for us to invite individuals. Although our husband and wife have a relatively well-off life, we need to hire a normal person. The wages are too much, and we still can't bear it. , so I thought about inviting some unusual people, some stupid people to work."

Hearing this, Master Liu asked: "If he is a fool, how can you let him work, do you have to fight him if he doesn't work?"

Li Jun shook his head with a "smile hehe" and said, "What are you fighting? No matter how stupid people are, they are born to their mothers. No matter how they hurt someone, it is very easy to make them work, just coax and teach them a little bit. They are actually very happy. They are stupid, they are actually just like children, they don't know much, or don't know much, and such people like children sometimes make me think that he is really my son... "

Li Jun was smiling when he said that, but in the end he shed a few tears inexplicably.

At this time, Li Jun's wife came over and said, "Okay, old Li, our family's 'idiot' is suffering. He was hit by that goddamn big truck driver..."

At this time, Zhao Laohei whispered to Master Liu: "His family is a fool, and he is the last long-term worker in their family."

Hearing this, Master Liu nodded with complete relief.

Master Liu said: "Old Li, if you can stay Xiaochun'er, it will be a good fruit for you, but before that, I have to make it clear to you, you are a good family. , so I can't hide these things from you."

Hearing Master Liu's words, Old Li said, "Does Master want to tell us about Xiaochun Erniang?"
