Four gusts of wind

"Well, what else? These two boys are also studying, and they are under a lot of pressure. The second child can't earn a lot of money a year, and it's good to have extra money to bring some snacks to these two children when they come back for the New Year. The third and fourth children have only contacted the family a few times in the past two years? The old man in the family can't cope with it alone, and you can't leave, so that's the only way to go. "

"The old man won't agree. "

"I'll talk to the old man in the evening." "

The uncle leaned against the wall, put his hands on the back of his head, and then looked up at the two brothers with swords dancing above, trying to squeeze a smile on his face.

"Alas, you said, when we went to herd cattle and sheep in the past, I thought, how nice it would be if there were no cattle and no sheep at home! When the season comes, you can also go around digging bamboo shoots and mushrooms. "

"Isn't it good to have cows and sheep, you forgot that we deliberately killed one when we were greedy, and then came back and told the old man that the sheep accidentally fell off the cliff, and the one who made the old man feel distressed." "

"It's that you can eat meat occasionally, but these two boys don't eat mutton." Do you remember the girl who went to you when I couldn't catch me when we were in elementary school?".

"Remember, didn't he go to the same junior high school as you? Oh, and to the same high school." What, have thoughts about people?".

"If you have any ideas, people will go to the school in August and September to report." "

Uncle, got up and stretched.

"If you have anything to do, remember to call me, I'll tease those two brothers." "

After speaking, the uncle turned around and walked towards the brothers.

The fifth uncle didn't speak, he was still burying his head in peeling potatoes, just peeling and peeling, and suddenly paused. At this time, a cool breeze blew, blowing his long bangs, a face in his twenties, and a few furrows could be faintly seen. He put the unpeeled potatoes back in the basket, kicked the peeled potatoes into the grass below the yard, and then picked up the basket and walked towards the well.

In the evening, the fifth uncle brought the fried dishes to the table, a few very simple dishes, green pepper shredded potatoes, fried green peppers and a cucumber soup. The elder brother poured some soup and soaked it in the rice, sandwiched a few green peppers and some shredded potatoes, and then walked towards the yard with a bowl, followed by the fifth uncle. Although it was dark, the outside of the house was much brighter than the inside compared to the faint light emitted by the incandescent lights in the house. Under the light, Grandpa walked to the cupboard and took out a plate of ginger and brought it to the dining table, he didn't like the taste of ginger, and he really couldn't understand how Grandpa could eat ginger as a snack.

Maybe he ate too much at noon, or maybe he had seen so many sumptuous dishes at noon, so he only poured some soup and a few green peppers and went to his brother with a bowl. The elder brother and the fifth uncle were squatting in the yard at the moment, gulping vegetables, he slowly walked to his side, listening to the approaching chirping of the summer cicadas, listening to the murmuring of the stream by the field, drinking like soup.

"If you get in, you'll go." "

Grandpa's faint and weak voice came from the house, and he never understood why adults always liked to say something he didn't understand with a weak expression, obviously it's good now, herding cattle, digging loaches, watching TV, except for going to school, these are all very good.

"These two babies also go to school, give them all the opportunities." "

Uncle's voice was much more comfortable than that of his grandfather. It seems that the uncle he has seen is always smiling, no matter what he encounters, as long as he sees the uncle's smile, it seems that the uncle can solve all the problems. It's like now, as soon as the uncle's voice appears, the matter that makes the grandfather frown can be easily solved.

"They don't need much money now, but you, it's hard to run out, are you willing?"

"It's okay, I'll go out for a few years and study for a few years, so let's use all the money." There are only these two little ones in the family, so that they can live a better life, and don't look up in front of their classmates. "

The fifth uncle quickly finished eating, got up and walked into the house, put the bowl away, and went out directly to the upper half of the village, and went again.

He also finished eating quickly, and went in to put the bowl away.

"Children, why do you eat so little?".

"Not hungry. "

With that, he rushed out of the house, followed by the shouts of the uncle.

"Watch less TV, don't stop eating just to watch TV." "

"Got it!".

Although he knew about it, he ran to the house above and got into the room with the TV like a loach in a stream.

"If you don't read it, where are you going?".

Grandpa's face was full of furrows, reflected by the faint light, some parts of his face were pitch black, some parts were yellow, but his eyes highlighted an indescribable depth.

"Go to the big city." "

Uncle said lightly, and then put the bowl down.

"By the way, give me some money tomorrow, I'll be the fare, don't take too much, just take some fare, and buy the rest more fruits, snacks, toys and the like." "

Uncle got up, stretched, and slowly walked outside the house. Grandpa didn't say anything more and continued to eat with his head down. I don't know if the light was too weak or something else, something actually fell into Grandpa's bowl, and Grandpa still ate quietly as if he didn't see it.

In the small room, three people are watching TV in different postures. The elder brother sat on a chair, and the uncle lay on a one-meter-high, two-meter-long cabinet that had long since been empty, while he lay on the bed, jointly constructing a comical picture.

They watched the cat chase the mouse in the animation, but he always looked disgraced, and the brother and uncle always laughed when they saw the cat being teased by the mouse, and he slowly fell asleep listening to the sound, and unconsciously closed his eyes.

When he opened his eyes again, he found that he was standing in the vegetable garden under the chestnut grove at an unknown time, when the sun was high in the sky, and the plums, pears, and peaches were ripe. He happily ran to a plum tree and jumped up, but no matter how much he jumped, he could not pick the plums that drooped. He was not convinced, took off his sandals and was about to climb the plum tree, but suddenly the voice of the uncle came from behind him.

I saw the uncle slowly walk to his side, then jumped briefly, smiled and handed him a hand full of plums. He happily grabbed the plum and ate it in a big gulp, the plum had no taste, but he couldn't control it and kept putting the plum in his mouth. Suddenly, a gust of wind blew, and he raised his head to find that the uncle was gone, and just as he was looking around, the uncle's voice came from above. He looked up and saw that the uncle was lying on the chestnut tree, patting the branches of the chestnut tree with a long bamboo pole, and the chestnuts fell gently to the ground under the beating. He ran over excitedly, rolled up the clothes on his belly and wrapped the chestnuts, and after a while, the clothes could not be covered. He looked up and begged his uncle to cook the chestnuts, and the uncle smiled and opened his mouth as if to say something, but he didn't hear anything. The uncle stretched out his hand from the tree and miraculously took away all the chestnuts, and the clothes wrapped in the chestnuts turned into plastic bags at some point. Then, the uncle walked a step or two, walked to the kitchen, and began to boil water. He stood outside the kitchen, expectantly waiting for his uncle to bring out the cooked chestnuts.

Suddenly, a white crane flew by its hair and landed in the yard, greedily pecking at the bread that his grandfather was drying in the yard. He didn't feel angry, but happy, the white crane in front of him seemed to be able to reach out and catch it, he ran to the white crane, ready to grab it and put it in a cage to raise. When he approached, the white crane waved its wings and flew into the air again. He chased after the crane, and the farther he ran, the crane flew higher and higher, and in the blink of an eye, the crane was as high as the white clouds, and he came to a forest that he did not know.

He looked around, could not find his way back, and began to cry in a hurry. The trees around him did not become gentle because he cried, on the contrary, as he cried louder and louder, they began to become hideous, like a group of demons trying to devour him alive. He waved his hand in fear, and no matter how much he waved, he couldn't drive away the group of demons. Just when he really didn't know what to do, a bright light appeared among the demons, and the light slowly expanded, and a path was opened, and at the end of the road there was a white crane that kept flapping its wings. He saw hope, and ran in the direction of the white crane regardless of it, and when he rushed out of the forest, the surrounding area suddenly became a vast meadow, the meadow was boundless, there was not a single tree, and it was all green grass as far as the eye could see. At this time, the white crane also disappeared.

He rejoiced again, closed his eyes and began to run freely on the grass. The wind on the grass was so soft that it hit your face like you were being touched by cotton. As he ran, his face began to feel wet, and he opened his eyes to see a light rain. The rain became heavier and heavier, wetting him all, and a black dot appeared in the sky not far away, and the black dot kept getting bigger, and finally formed a terrifying black vortex in the sky, and the maelstrom slowly extended to the ground, until it turned into a large tornado not far away. The tornado slowly approached him, and he turned and ran again in fear, and the more he ran, the more tired he became, and the more he ran, the more strenuous he became, and when he looked closely, there was a high mountain in front of him that reached into the sky. He froze where he was, not knowing what to do. Seeing that the tornado was getting closer and closer, the cry of a white crane suddenly came from beside him, and he looked for the sound and found that the white crane was now on the ridge, idly pecking at its feathers. He quickly looked around and found himself standing on a ridge with a field on one side and a stream overgrown with water and grass on the other.

The crane chirped, then waved its wings and flew into the sky again, and he hurried to it, trying to catch it before it could fly high. But he stretched out his hand and grabbed only a handful of cotton. He sat down disappointed and began to examine the small stream in front of him, which was filled with small fish swimming around. He rolled up his sleeves and trouser legs, slowly descended into the stream, and began to catch small fish with his bare hands, one, two, three, and threw each one on a small puddle in the field next to him. After catching for a long time, he got up and wiped the sweat from his face, climbed up to the field to see the fish he caught, and the strange thing was that he remembered that he had caught a dozen or twenty, but there were only two or three swimming in the puddle. He was unwilling to look around in the puddles, digging and digging, digging and digging, and he actually hollowed out the fields, and dug himself down, and with his fall, the earth turned into white clouds, the streams became blue skies, and there were countless mountains below. He kept falling down, seeing that he was getting closer and closer to the ground, and suddenly, two more white cranes grabbed his arms on the left and right, and they easily led him to the ground slowly, and after putting him down, the two white cranes flew shoulder to shoulder and flew into the air.

He looked around and found himself standing on a flat ground surrounded by mountains, which were full of blooming flowers, cherries, and kiwis. He walked towards the forest, and as he walked, the sky grew dark, and in a moment the cold moonlight covered the forest, and the trees became dark. He didn't dare to go any further, and squatted down where he was. The sounds of insects and birds slowly appeared around him, and he covered his ears in fear, but he couldn't stop those sounds from coming in. He looked behind him and saw that the two white cranes were already standing by a stream at some point. He reached out and tried to grab the cranes, to let them take him away. The moment he stretched out his hand, the white crane disappeared again, and was replaced by his uncle, who was still cooking chestnuts in the kitchen. He wanted to shout loudly, but when the words reached his throat, it seemed like something was choking, and no matter how much he struggled, he could not make a sound.

Long Shaoxing, look up!

In desperation, a familiar and unfamiliar voice came from above. He looked up and saw a girl sitting on the trunk of a tree, and he couldn't see what the girl looked like, or even what she was wearing, but he could only see a very cute face and a comfortable smile.

With the appearance of the girl, the darkness faded, the sun re-illuminated the land, the surrounding mountains became fields of crops, and familiar villages appeared in the distance. The uncle was still boiling chestnuts, the elder brother and Ermao were driving the cattle back from the clear water stream, the grandfather and the fifth uncle were wielding hoes in the baogu field, and the girl was sitting on the trunk of a pear tree with huge fruits.

Catch me!

The girl smiled, then jumped straight down from the tree, and he quickly ran over with open hands.

In the process of running, he opened his eyes sharply and saw the fifth uncle sitting by the door smoking a cigarette, and the mountains in the distance were looming with a thin mist, and in the gray room, you could see a pile of shabby clothes piled up on the cabinet, and the TV that was still turned off stood motionless.

He asked, wiping the sweat from his face and rubbing his eyes.

"What time is it?" "

The fifth uncle heard the voice and slowly extinguished the eyes in his hand, still commenting ahead.

"It's still early, you can sleep again, and then go to herd the cattle after breakfast." "

"Oh. "

He answered weakly, rolled over, closed his eyes and fell asleep.

When he woke up again, he saw through the window that the sun was already high in the sky. The sun shone down, shining on the ashes floating in the room, and the ashes fell onto the chair next to the wardrobe, imprinting a less clear footprint. He got up, opened the door, and saw Da Bai running from the side, circling around him, he stroked Da Bai's head, and slowly walked down the yard. The door of the cowshed and sheepfold was open, and the cattle and sheep had disappeared, and there was no grandfather, fifth uncle and little uncle, only the elder brother picking plums in the vegetable garden not far away.

"Brother, where's the cow?".

He called out to his brother, who glanced at him, then continued to pluck plums with his head down.

"Uncle Fifth went to release it today." "

"What about Grandpa and Uncle?".

"Uncle wants to go out, grandpa sends uncle there." "

"Oh. "

He walked straight to the kitchen and didn't ask again.

Walking to the kitchen, looking at the covered plates on the dining table, he thought it was potatoes and peppers again, but today there was a surprise appearance of fish and meat, and he ran to the door excitedly to ask.

"Brother, where did the fish come from?".

"Grandpa went to buy it early in the morning." "

He didn't think too much about it, and hurried to eat the meal greedily, while Da Bai kept beating beside him, anxiously waiting for him to spit out the fish bones.

While eating, he suddenly realized something, and quickly put down the bowl and ran to the door.

"Brother, where is Uncle going?".

"Doesn't Uncle always go home for a few days, and then go out for a long time? "

The elder brother did not answer directly, and he did not ask again, but went back to the house to continue eating, but the speed of his eating slowed down significantly, to a slower than what his grandfather ate.
