Heroes of the Anti-Japanese War

Chapter 825 The ass in memory

Erya moved the three large tanks to the yard, and there were still six large stones on the ground.

She filled the big pot in the yard with water and set up a fire to start boiling the water.

When the water is hot, use hot water to scrub the three large vats and the six large stones, and use them immediately for pickling sauerkraut.

There are only three people in the family now, Second Master Qi is too old and the child is too young, so she can only do this kind of work by herself.But for Erya, who has become a habit of hard work, this is nothing at all.

There was a sudden sound of gongs and drums on the street outside, and a child about ten years old ran into the yard.

"Why don't you go out and go crazy after reading at home!" Erya shouted.

"Mom, the stretcher squadron, the stretcher squadron in District [-] is about to leave!" said the child.

He was obviously used to being scolded by Er Ya, and he was already skinny.

The child ran to the window again and lay down on the window, shouting: "Second Grandpa, come out quickly, the stretcher team is about to leave!"

Second Master Qi got up slowly on the kang and walked to the edge of the kang, then stretched his feet on the ground and scratched the shoes on the ground.

The child couldn't wait any longer, so he rushed into the room and bent down to pick up the shoes on the ground and put them on Second Master Qi's feet.

The child held Second Master Qi's arm and said, "Go quickly, you won't be able to see it if it's too late!"

Seeing the child come out of the house after not studying, Erya originally wanted to scold him, but when he saw Erye Qi, he swallowed the curse words into his stomach.

The child helped Second Master Qi to the street.

The sound of gongs and drums came from the district office, and people who heard the sound stood on both sides of the street and waited.

After another ten minutes, the gong and drum team came out from the district office. After the gong and drum team, people with red flowers on their chests lined up in two columns.

The leader was Ma Yongnian, the deputy head of the Zhiyi District of Mishan County, and he was the captain of the Zhiyi Squadron of the Mishan Stretcher Brigade.This time Zhiyi District gathered a total of 200 people to form a stretcher squadron.The stretcher brigade in Mishan County has 400 people, which is already a lot in Mishan County with only 3 people.

It is October now, and the weather is already very cold. Many people in the stretcher team are wearing dog fur hats and thin cotton jackets and thin cotton trousers. 200 people lined up outside the west gate and headed north to Mishan. After the entire stretcher brigade gathered, they rushed to Harbin by train, and then went south from Harbin.

Erya's family is old and young, so the previous encouragement of conscription and stretcher teams couldn't find her family, so she was not qualified to be an honorable family member.

When the child and Second Master Qi returned home, Erya was scrubbing the big stone on which sauerkraut was pressed.She saw two people staring at the child as soon as they entered the yard.

The child put down Second Master Qi's arm and ran into the house quickly.

"I'll break your legs if you run around outside in the future!" Erya shouted.

"If you have something to say, talk about it. Besides, don't you read well in children's books? Isn't it the first place in the exam?" Second Master Qi said dissatisfied.

"What does it count to be the first in school? Are you the first in Mishan County? Are you the first in Mudanjiang?" Erya shouted to the window.

Erya wiped the stone with hot water and a rag, and said bitterly, "I'll give you a discount if I come first in the exam!"

Erya actually repeated these two sentences over and over again.

"It's either beating or scolding! You can reason with your children. That's how you are. You don't turn corners in everything you do. The same goes for the small business owner." Second Master Qi said in a complaining tone.

In August [-], Qian Xiaobao took Erya and Qi Erye to the west gate of Laomi Mountain by motorcycle.

Erya took her children and Qi Erye first to seek refuge with her brother Baocai's house in Sanli Village.After the liberation, several Japanese households who used to live in the town disappeared.Erya bought the compound from the original town hall, bought a donkey, and made tofu again with a stone mill.

In the current Zhiyi Town, she can be considered an upper-middle class family.

The family has such a big house, and the production tools such as the donkey and the stone mill are all owned by itself. Since Erya works alone in the tofu house and does not hire anyone, the district office designated Erya as a small owner last year.

Erya is indifferent to political matters, and doesn't care about the matter of determining the status, but Second Master Qi is very dissatisfied.

"Oh, it would be great if Xiaobao was here now. He's not like you who is dead-headed, and does things all the way to the dark. I used to always dislike him, and I have eight hundred thoughts in my stomach, but now it looks like It's really impossible without someone like him in the family!" Second Master Qi said with a sigh.

Er Ya bowed her head to work and did not speak, it seemed that she was going to rub this big barbarai rock into a pebble.

Second Master Qi walked into the room, and the child was sitting on the small bench with his upper body lying on the kang, looking at the textbook.In fact, he had nothing else to read besides his textbooks.

The windows are pasted with window paper, so the light transmission is very poor, and the room is dark.

Second Master Qi couldn't help but think of living with Qian Xiaobao in Harbin's bright and bright small foreign-style building in the past three years or so.

Erya seemed to have a pair of see-through eyes. She shouted to the window in the yard: "Light up the oil lamp!"

She is a person who spends money like hell, but it doesn't matter for children to read and light oil lamps.

The child picked up the match on the kang, took out a match, lit the oil lamp, and then carried it to the kang and put it down.

Looking at the child lying on the kang to study again, Second Master Qi said: "Jin Song, you must study hard, and you will be promising when you grow up!"

Jinsong is the name given to the child by Erye Qi after much deliberation.When the child's bad father left, he didn't even leave a name.

When Qi Erye followed the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army to fight Japan, he saw the pine trees on Zhangguangcai Ridge and Wanda Mountain in Changbai Mountain with a height of more than ten meters or even tens of meters. He felt that children should grow up like pine trees.

"When I grow up and have money, I will buy a fart donkey, and I can go wherever I want with my feet!" said the child, blinking and chattering.

In the Northeast, people call motorcycles donkeys because of the smoke coming out of the exhaust pipes.

"This morning, a fart donkey delivered a letter eastward to Liumao. I told my classmates that I had ridden on a fart donkey, and they all laughed at me for bragging." The child continued.

"When have you ever sat? You have never sat at all!" Qi Erye coughed and said, choking on a puff of Kanto smoke.

"I remember I sat there. When did I forget that I was sitting behind an uncle, my mother was sitting behind me, and I remembered you were sitting in the back of the donkey's cart." The child said.

This was the time when Qian Xiaobao sent Erya and the three of them here. Although it was five years ago and the child was only five years old at that time, the child still remembered it because of the deep impression.

"You child is still stubborn! If I say you haven't sat down, you haven't sat down! Don't go outside and talk nonsense!" Qi Erye said, knocking on the kang mat with a cigarette bag.

Erya also heard the conversation between the two people in the house in the yard, and she stood up nervously involuntarily.

"Haven't I ever sat down? How do I remember that I did?" the child asked suspiciously.

"Dream hysteria, you have never sat down!" Qi Erye said.
