The door of the courtyard house has been welded dead

Chapter 396 Liu Lei’s Blind Date

"Grandpa, grandpa, my parents were fighting, and my mother was almost beaten to death~!"

On the bamboo bed late at night, the two brothers looked at each other. Listening to the breathless breathing and slaps in the room, they quickly put on their slippers and ran to their grandfather's house.

Grandpa Li Feng, who was also sleeping in the yard, was still awake at this time. They were shaking their cattail fans and talking about the children. When they heard the words of the two grandsons outside the yard, they laughed and coughed a few times.

"Come on, come in. You'll sleep with your grandparents tonight. Your parents, let them beat you. We haven't seen each other for so long. It's time for a beating!"

Grandma Li Feng opened the courtyard door, hugged the heads of the two grandsons of the third family, moved out a smaller bamboo bed, poured a gourd of water from the well, and left the two brothers to stay here.

"Grandma, what should I do if someone is killed? Otherwise my father will be arrested by the police!"

"If I kill someone, I will let your mother give birth to a younger brother and sister, haha!"

Under the clear night, the moonlight splashed all over the ground like water, with the sound of crickets and frogs croaking, and accompanied by the snoring of the big pig, the two brothers fell asleep unknowingly.

As for Liu Qiang, he was addicted to the fragrance of the cream.

"Oh, oh, oh~~!"

The morning light gradually rose above the horizon, shining like amber sunlight. The sound of crickets and frogs were frightened away by the crowing of roosters.

The brothers rubbed their eyes and saw the grape vines in the yard, then realized that they were at their grandparents' house.

"Take your brother to sleep for a while, Xiaojie!"

Grandma couldn't see her child getting up so early. While brushing her teeth, she pressed her hand on the eldest son to signal that he didn't have to get up so early.

"Grandma, let me take them to dig bamboo shoots. Dig more in the morning. The pigs will grow up quickly~"

The teenage boy was obviously much more sensible. Like a little adult, he picked up the hoe behind the door, which was about the same height as him, and prepared to take his younger brother to the back mountain.

Last night, they ate meat that they had not eaten for a long time. The children still remembered it. They were more interested in the pigs in the pig pen. They were haunted by the taste of meat that they had not tasted for a long time, and their enthusiasm was even higher.

"Go, be careful of the worms, don't be greedy, come back for dinner soon, let's eat steamed buns this morning~!"

Grandpa Li Feng had a supportive attitude. Many of the teenage children were even married when they were young, and it was time to become the breadwinner of the family.

"Okay grandpa~!"

In this way, the older child carried the hoe and the younger child carried the small bamboo basket. The division of labor was clear, and they walked towards the back mountain at dawn.

"When his father comes back, you can't let them spend more time with him!"

Grandma Li Feng rolled her eyes at her wife angrily. While making noodles, she complained that her son and grandson didn't even have a good chat, so they had people go up the mountain to dig bamboo shoots so early in the morning!

Grandpa Li Feng didn't want to explain any more, so he put on his coat, counted the money he divided last night, and after taking out two pieces, he stuffed them majestically into his coat pocket, which is still the most conspicuous position in the upper left corner.

"You cook the food first, and I'll go for a walk in the village~!"

After saying that, he slowly walked out the door with his hands behind his back.

"Good morning, fourth brother~!"

"Er Gouzi~!"

"Lao Xi, have you eaten yet~!"

While smoke was curling from the kitchens in every house, Grandpa Li Feng had already walked through the main roads in the village with his iron footboards and greeted everyone he met with great enthusiasm.

It wasn't until he arrived at the village's intelligence center, under the big willow tree outside the village, that he picked up the pot and started smoking.

"Big girl~!"

After waiting for the person he wanted to wait for, Grandpa Li Feng knocked the cigarette pot under the grinding plate and walked over slowly.

"Third uncle, you're so early today!"

The middle-aged woman carrying the porridge shivered and almost dropped the bowl in her hand. When she saw Grandpa Li Feng, she said hello with a stiff face.

Grandpa Li Feng nodded, glanced at the gruel in her bowl, pondered for a moment, and then cleared his throat.

"The boss of your second brother's family, Lei Zi, didn't he come back from the capital yesterday?"

"I know, Third Uncle. I heard Lao Kuai say yesterday that something happened. Isn't it a good thing to come back? Is it possible?"

"Before, it was always inconvenient to talk about the old sesame seeds and rotten millet at home, and life was a mess. Now, his uncle and nephew are in the capital digging for food. The family is a little better off. It's time for Lei Zi to find him a wife. !”

The crumpled banknotes made the pockets of her coat bulge, and the big girl could see it now, and her eyes were spinning so fast.

As a well-known celebrity in the village, there are many single men and women in several villages from all over the country. It is true that they have never looked for her before. Now it seems that the two of them have indeed made money in the capital, and they are looking for a wife when they come back. .

"Third uncle, you see, Brother Qiang and his eldest nephew went to the capital. The girls and wives there are much more attractive than those in the countryside. Lei Zi is tall and strong, why don't you find someone from the city! "

The big girl is not lying at all at this time. After all, this is what she does, but she must say it beforehand. If her eyes are too high on the outside, then don't blame her. They are all relatives in the same village and in the fifth server. Ugly words At the front.

"If you can talk about the city, you will come back to look for it wherever you go. When you go out, you are driving a car. You earn hard money. It is his turn to pick and choose. If you can find someone today, your third uncle is not an unreasonable person!"

"If you can find it well, these are all yours!"

After saying that, the crumpled banknotes were taken out of his pocket and slapped on the grinding plate. The old man looked proud at this time. He could still take charge of the family affairs.

Liu family.

Everyone who had finished breakfast was not in a hurry to start work at this time. The gong at the head of the village had not yet sounded. Children, including relatives in front and behind, were all gathered here.

"Well, all the money I borrowed before has been paid off today. I also want to thank everyone for helping our Liu family when we were in trouble. Thank you!"

In fact, there was not much money. People in rural areas had to support themselves. The main reason was the money Liu Qiang borrowed when he went out before, but it always made the old man think about it.

I didn't know how much they could earn outside before, and the money they sent back was all at the bottom of the box. That is to say, when the people came back, the old man paid back all the money.

"Hey, it's just a matter of a few cents. It's all a matter of one family. No matter what two families say, Qiangzi, you brought something good back, let me see~!"

"Hey, these flower cloths and sweet potato flowers, I knew you must have brought good things back. Did you see them picking up the picks?" A rural lady didn't feel embarrassed at all. At this time, she looked around in the two rooms. He looked at it until he opened the sack covering the pick, and then happily flipped through the items inside.

Liu Lei scratched his scalp, grinned and looked at his aunt who was in madness, and looked at his mother for help. This was a cloth ticket given by Li Feng. He specially picked good cloth at the Beijing Department Store and used it when he came back to talk to his wife.

Seeing the aunt's rough big hands rubbing on the flower cloth and making gestures on her body, Liu Lei's forehead twitched and he was about to explode on the spot. It was dirty and it would be hard to give it away.

"Put it down, that was brought back by my son. As a mother, I won't even give you a cent. It's your turn. This is a first-class product brought back from the capital. Not to mention the supply and marketing cooperative in the county, it's from the city. You can’t even buy such good stuff in state-owned stores~!”

Aunt Li Feng's eyes were red at this time and she was breathing heavily. She gouged out her son and hurriedly put away the flower cloth.

Last night I was busy sharing the money. When I got the money, the first thing I thought about was where to hide it and where to take care of the things in the basket. I didn't expect that my son would bring these good things back and brag about them while he was showing off. pain.

"Sweet potato flowers, oh, and malted milk, you guys are really better off than in the city~!"

As the things in the basket were unearthed bit by bit, many people holding money looked at the excitement. There were many people, but not even the brigade cadres' homes. I went to the capital and came back, and it was really different. Extraordinary.

"Come on, let's sound the gong, let's go, let's go to work!"

Li Feng's two aunts finally let go of their concerns at this time. After looking at each other, they chose to speak out unanimously and drive away the outsiders first.

"Mom, mom, cloth, the cloth ticket was given by Xiaofeng~!"

Seeing my mother and aunt talking around the things and discussing how to divide the spoils, I quickly said aggrievedly, you two should share the spoils, flashlights, pillow towels, etc., you can arrange them as you please, but the cloth ticket It's not easy to come by. Don't worry about that piece of floral cloth.

"Okay, you are so grown up now. Don't be embarrassed here and go to work. Leizi, if you don't go to work today, go and talk to your aunt from the village entrance~!"

He directly interrupted the two sisters-in-law who were having sex and rushed them away. The old man's cigarette pot was extremely useful at this time. It was useful for smoking and knocking people. He pointed to the direction of the village entrance and arranged the grandson's itinerary for today. Come down.

Not to mention, I took a shower last night and changed my clothes today. Li Feng gave the white vest to his cousin because he thought it was too tacky. It had five bright red characters of Red Star Steel Rolling Mill printed on it. It was still brand new and paired with the old Beijing cloth shoes and black cloth trousers, it looks like that.

"Take this bag and go grab a handful of candies. Let's talk more with the girl's family and talk more about things in the city. If I ask, I can take her to the capital in the future. I can earn no less than a worker every month!"

"You can hear me~!"

He scolded loudly and called Liu Leihun, who was confused, back. Despite his age, the old man's words were still very meaningful. It seemed that he had put a lot of thought into this for his grandson.

"Grandpa, I don't have a house over there, so why would I take someone there~!"

The honest Liu Lei seemed to not want to deceive the little girl. He lowered his head and muttered in shame.

"Oh, you stupid kid, why can't you turn around? If you like her, say more nice things and bring her back first. Whether you go or not is a matter for the future. I miss you a little after all!"

Grandma Li Feng, as someone who had been there before, also started to persuade her. She was really afraid that the money would be spent, and this stubborn person would not be able to bring back anyone.

"I'm telling you, Lei Zi, you and your aunt should discuss the money yourself. Anyway, tonight, I have to see you bring someone back. If you can't bring someone back, don't come into the house~!"

It was Uncle Li Feng who showed his strength at this time. With a straight face, he took off his shoes, looked at his son eagerly, and asked him to go on a long trip. The purpose was not just to earn money and find a wife. Now that one goal was accomplished, the next goal was missing. How could he not Then he threatened.

"Not so fast, dad, Xiaofeng talked for a long time before we got married!"

"You don't care, I'm in the city. If you have that time, you're digging in the dirt. How long do you want to put it off? Hurry up and go~"

After all, the new clothes his son was wearing couldn't have shoe prints on them, so he finally got his son out by bluffing and scaring him.

"Okay, today we will pay the public rations. Qiangzi, you also go to the brigade and buy your work points. After you pay the public rations, they will be distributed to each family~!"

Everyone arranged their own affairs in the house, and after the door was locked, each family hurried towards the predetermined location and hurried over.

As for Liu Lei, he was carrying the cloth bag and hesitantly rushed to the entrance of the village.

"Leizi, hurry up~!"

The girl at the entrance of the village was waiting anxiously. She had a red rag on her head and could be seen from a long way away. She knew she was a red man at a glance. Liu Lei, who was a little confused, walked along the village road. Take the small road and walk towards Zhaohu.

"Don't talk too much when you go. Listen to your aunt. If you like it, tell her and she will help you make peace!"

How many times have I experienced it, how many times have I seen a middle-aged aunt and a big girl, how many young men who were shy at first, could not walk along the road when they saw a girl they liked? On the way, I asked about Liu Lei's situation, and at the same time I thought about what the girl's family said. .

"Big girl, whose family does this belong to?"

On the ridge of the fields, you can meet familiar people from time to time. When you see a red rag on their head, you know that the red man is coming. The farmers in the fields put their hands on the handles of their hoes and looked at Liu Lei curiously.

"My eldest nephew, are all the lesbians at the ditch today?"

"You can find the girl from the third old man's house, haha, OK, OK, OK, they are digging a canal, hurry over there~!"

Liu Lei, whose eyes were straight, felt like a rag doll at this moment, with his head lowered and allowed to be dragged by others. He saw so many girls of the same age working there with bare arms by the ditch. , the head almost shrinks into the neck.

"You come back from the capital, and you eat the food in the city. Second girl, you can see for yourself. She is tall, strong, and in good health. Don't miss the opportunity!"

Amidst the ringing of the girls' silver bells, a barefooted girl was pushed out by the crowd. The two young men were too shy to look directly at each other, so they could only take a sneak peek and get a full view of each other.

Occasionally, after their eyes meet, the two people will lower their heads at the same time like quails.

"I, I listen to my dad~!"

The girl's family was always a little unable to resist the aggressive gaze of the famous man. Unexpectedly, when she went to work, she would meet on a blind date. Compared with Liu Lei, who was fair and clean, she dug her own ditch, and her feet, face, and arms were all covered with blood. It's all mud and can't even be covered.

"Over here, Lei Zi, you have also seen this girl. She is 22 years old and has a big butt that is fertile. She will definitely be able to give you a boy~!"

The blind dates at that time were just like this, very short and simple. Sometimes, that one glance would determine their lifelong partner. For Liu Lei, who was tall and tall, as long as he looked clean, he would be far superior to the young men around him. .

"Haha, Erya, look, Erya is shy. Erya, do you want it? If you don't want it, I want it~!"

The friends who were also digging the canal looked at Erya who was at a loss. One by one, they started making noises, which made the little girl want to crawl into the ground in shame.

Years later, when asked by their children, many parents are embarrassed to tell what happened back then.

Due to limited conditions, the canal outside the village, the reservoir at the head of the village, the big locust tree, even the Mopan at the entrance of the village, and even the riverside at the foot of the mountain were the places where my parents first met each other. There was no oath of love or materialistic desires.

Sometimes, there are only two beating, swaying and uneasy hearts, and they have been concerned since then.
