Hello, 1983

The room looked very empty, probably because of the lack of furniture.

After entering the house, to the south is a long kang with kang mats.

On the wall of the head of the kang, there is a New Year's picture of a big fat boy holding a big red carp. The top of the kang is neatly folded, and there is a square table for eating in the middle of the kang.

There are two square wooden cabinets on the ground, on which are neatly placed mirrors, wooden combs, grates and other daily utensils.

In addition, there is a milky white cream bottle, and a box of rouge powder that is usually reluctant to use, with a pattern of Chang'e flying to the moon printed on it.

The walls are all pasted with newspapers. It's been more than half a year, and it looks a bit old.

On the wall above the cabinet, there is a picture frame with a dozen black and white photos placed in it.

Then, and then nothing else.

This home is so simple, but neat and warm.

Liu Qingshan's eyes fell on the family portrait in the middle of the frame.

Sitting in the middle of the grandfather's knees, the silly little boy is Liu Qingshan, and the little girl in grandma's arms is the little sister Liu Caifeng, who was just one year old at the time and could not walk.

Originally, after the mother gave birth to Liu Qingshan, she was not going to have any more children, so she went to the commune hospital to take her ringer according to the custom at that time.

As a result, after taking it for several years, I don't know when I lost the ring, and then gave birth to a little sister again.

Behind the grandmother and grandfather, stood mother Lin Zhi and father Liu Zijun.

Seeing his father's young and handsome face, Liu Qingshan couldn't help crying again, and said in his heart: Dad, don't worry, I will support this family in the future!

"Let's eat!"

The fourth Liu Caifeng picked up her small enamel bowl and saw a pot of boiled eggplant with clear soup and little water on the table.

Eating an egg custard is an extravagant hope, and as for eating meat, the little girl dare not even think about it.

Liu Qingshan rubbed the little sister's lid with some distress: "Don't shout, brother will let you eat meat every day!"

What? Liu Caifeng didn't understand a little, she blinked her big hairy eyes and asked, "Brother, does our family celebrate the New Year every day?"

"No, no, Li Chuang Wang came to Beijing to celebrate the New Year every day, but after 18 days, he was kicked out. We can't learn."

Regardless of their young age, the children of the Liu family, because of their father, have received the best education in the village since childhood, so they know more than ordinary children.

"Fourth, hurry up and eat. I still want to eat meat every day. You are so beautiful that you don't dare to think so in your dreams."

The eldest sister carried the old sister into the kang, and the family began to eat lunch.

The golden pancake is a bit choking when eating, and the vegetable soup is not oily at all, but Liu Qingshan eats it very deliciously.

From time to time, he looked at this, looked at that, smiled, and continued to eat happily.

"Yinfeng, don't read books when you eat."

Lin Zhi glanced at the second girl, and her mood was a bit complicated: This child, after failing the college entrance examination, became a demon.

If you don't miss that few points, you will be admitted to university, and you will be able to have a college student in your family.

You must know that even in the entire commune, there is still not a single college student, which is almost unprecedented.

However, if he were to pass the exam, he would be even more worried, and his family would really have no money at all.

Forget it, don’t think about it anymore, the car must have a way to the front of the mountain. At that time, even if it is to sell iron, it will have to support the children to go to college.

Thinking of her husband's entrustment before his death, Lin Zhi's mind became firmer.

Liu Qingshan also admires his second sister, she has a lot of energy in her studies.

It is a pity that my life is not good. I have been taking the test for three consecutive years. Every year, I have a few points.

but,

It's different now. I have been dealing with foreigners for more than ten years, and guiding my second sister to learn English is more than enough.

So Liu Qingshan swallowed the big cake in his mouth, waved his hand and said, "Second sister, you can't learn English like this, you have to read it out loud."

In this era, foreign languages ​​are mostly learned as "dumb foreign languages".

There is no way. Many English teachers are not good at speaking, and they rarely listen to English tapes. No matter how hard students work, it is difficult to improve.

Liu Yinfeng raised her head and glanced at her brother without saying a word, but the look in her eyes fully showed her thoughts: what do you know, a little brat who just graduated from junior high school?

Liu Qingshan patted his chest: "Second sister, I will take care of your English in the future!"

As a result, the eldest sister next to him stabbed him, and said angrily: "Qingshan, you can do it, the cows are blowing loudly, and I can't talk about whether I can get into high school this time."

Not only that, even Xiao Caifeng pouted at him.

As the only man in the family, Liu Qingshan also wants to be proud of himself. He happened to be full, so he hurriedly got off the table: "I'll take a look at my grandparents."

"Brother, wait, I'll go too."

The fourth child also slipped out from the edge of the kang to the ground swiftly.

The little guy is a ghost, there is nothing delicious at home, let's see if we can go to the grandparents' place to hang out.

Grandma hangs in the small basket on the beam of the house. It seems that there is still a trough cake, um, there must be.

Liu Qingshan led a small tail. As soon as he walked out of the gate, he saw Er Biaozi sneakily squatting in the shade at the root of the fence and waiting. He stepped forward and gave Liu Qingshan a small basket, then waved his hand and ran away.

He usually doesn't dare to enter Liu Qingshan's house. He was pinched by the elder sister once before, and his arm was twisted purple, leaving a psychological shadow.

Looking at a few palm-sized crucian carp seeds in the basket, as well as more than a pound of black loach that burrowed back and forth, Liu Qingshan knew that he had brought all the fish.

"Brother, find a glass bottle, I want to raise loach."

Liu Caifeng squatted beside the basket and wanted to reach out to grab it, but was a little afraid.

These fish, of course, are good for eldest sister's body, but if they are brought home, they must be fed to chickens again.

It's not that the fish is not delicious, the key is that if you burn this stuff without oil, the fishy smell will increase.

Well, it's better to get it for grandparents, and when it's done, I'll bring back two for my eldest sister.

Carrying the basket, Liu Qingshan pushed open the wooden door of the house next door: Grandpa's house is next to his.

The small yard was neatly tidy up, and my grandmother was a diligent old lady with little feet.

At that time, those who could bind little feet were not ordinary people. Grandpa was even more incredible. When he was young, he used to be a soldier and made contributions.

Later, because of the injury, he lost contact with the troops and stayed in this small ravine.

Entering the house, the furnishings are similar to Liu Qingshan's house, and there is an old desk clock on the cover of the cabinet. In the very center, there is a half-length portrait of the president in white porcelain.

There were two more blue-and-white gall bladders in the house, one with a feather duster on it, and a few pheasant feathers on the other.

On the windowsill, there are also several pots of flowers with large green leaves, and one of them is blooming with gorgeous flowers.

Although the life was hard, but the grandparents were not completely smoothed out their interests.

"Father, milk!"

Liu Qingshan shouted at the two old people sitting on the kang, and couldn't hold back the tears.

"Yo, it's Qingshan, have you eaten yet?"

Liu Shikui, who was sitting cross-legged on the head of the kang, shouted.

Sitting there, you can see that the old man has a large skeleton and a standard Chinese character face. Although it is full of vicissitudes, he still shows a bit of heroism, but he is thin and skinny.

Also, a pair of eyes narrowed.

"Eat, eat..."

Liu Qingshan responded while looking at the old man carefully.

When he was a child, he slept at his grandfather's house for half of his time at night, and his feelings were very deep.

In the past two years, my grandfather's eyes have developed cataracts, and his eyesight has deteriorated so much that he can see things blurry. He will be completely blind in two years.

When the conditions at home eased, I wanted to have another operation, but it was too late.

No, I must get a sum of money as soon as possible to get my grandpa's cataract done.

In addition, life at home is too hard now. The younger sisters are all skinny and thin. They must be malnourished. They must improve their quality of life as soon as possible.

Grandma took the basket and poured it into an enamel basin, and then stuffed half a cucumber into Xiao Caifeng's hand. There was half a bowl of sauce on the small kang table. Just a meal.

Seeing that the imagined trough cake turned into a green cucumber, Xiao Caifeng was a little aggrieved, and asked her grandma to raise loach in a glass bottle.

However, the family can't eat a bottle of canned food all year round, so where can I find a glass bottle?

"Pour out my wine bottle to Caifeng. The ginseng root in it has been soaked for several years. It's better to soak the root cucumber!"

This old man has one problem - he is especially protective of the calf.

Regarding the requests of the younger generation, what can be done must be done, and what cannot be done must be done by creating conditions.

Seeing the little old girl holding the glass bottle and smiling brightly, she went out to show off with her friends. Liu Qingshan was lying on the kang and fell asleep unconsciously. She slept very soundly.

Until I was woken up by a sound of talking, I looked at the time, it was already more than three o'clock in the afternoon.

As soon as Gulu got up, he saw Gao Wenwen, who was holding something in his hand and his face was a little swollen, looking at him and smiling stupidly.

This guy is really impatient. Didn't he ask him to propose marriage tomorrow? Why can't he wait all night?

Liu Qingshan went down to the ground, greeted Zhang Guofu and his daughter-in-law again, called uncle and aunt, and then went to pour water.

There is no tea, just boiled water, and two cups are poured in an enamel jar printed with "serving the people".

There are only two jars at home, UU reading www.uukanshu.com Gao Wenxue should not drink, anyway, he will not be an outsider in the future.

Grandma told everyone to sit on the edge of the kang. The old lady came from a big family before liberation, so of course she understood, so the wrinkles on her face were all smiles.

The captain's aunt is also a well-spoken person, and she quickly explained the matter, so there is no reason why the grandparents should not agree.

After drinking a glass of water, the captain and his wife had to work in the fields, so they left first.

After my grandmother sent the guests off, she was so happy when she returned to the house, she quickly said, "Literature, when the winter is free, we will have a happy event for you and Jin Fengcao!"

The old couple are still very satisfied with this gentle grandson-in-law.

Gao Wenxue pushed up the glasses with his hands, feeling a little panicky: Wait until winter, it will be a few months away, by then, the child will be born soon, right?

You know, at this time, the atmosphere is still very old-fashioned. If you have a big belly and marry your son, your spine will be pierced.

Therefore, after plucking up his courage, Gao Wenxue said: "Grandpa and grandma, why don't you get married earlier, isn't Jin Feng pregnant?"

Grandma was a little deaf and asked suspiciously, "It's broken, what's broken?"

Although grandpa's eyes are not good, but his ears are good, he wiped it on the kang twice, picked up the pimple on the broom, and saw a vague figure in front of him, so he tapped it twice.

"It's a shame that you are still a cultural person, how can you do things so carelessly!"

Gao Wenxue stared blankly at the old man on the head of the future brother-in-law, and slapped two broomsticks hard, with a confused expression: Is this the wrong person?

"Father, why are you hitting me?"

Liu Qingshan held his head and gave Gao Wenxue a hard look, he saw clearly, I'm here for you!
