My 1979

Chapter 17 1979: I want to talk to the world

The eels stopped collecting, and Li He finally slept peacefully. He took a mat to sleep in the yard every day, and slept until he woke up naturally every day.

The sun was beginning to dazzle at this moment. It came through the cracks in the trees and hit Li He's face. He vaguely wanted to continue sleeping, but fearing that the sleepiness would disappear, he stood up and tried to close the curtains, but his body tilted and he staggered. After a while, I woke up, looked up at the bright sun, and was just sleepwalking.

But his subconscious mind returned to a mansion with a comfortable big bed and open floor-to-ceiling windows. It seemed that he still couldn't let go of his previous life.

I got up and washed my face, and looked at the dark face in the water. It was not handsome. At best, it had regular features and was a little thin.

He had a sparse mustache, which was not very beautiful. At a glance, he could tell that the hair was not fully grown. He couldn't get rid of the pimples on his face. He slapped his face hard in disgust. It was the same in adolescence. Urinary.

But the bird is too big to hide in any forest, and its pants have to be changed.

The world is so wonderful.

Although Li Zhaokun still has the same virtue, his brothers and sisters regard him as an invisible person.

Li He felt that he had made all the arrangements before he left. The only thing he was worried about was his eldest sister's marriage, but the smell of poverty in his eldest brother-in-law's house could be smelled three miles away.

The eldest brother-in-law has no father or mother. Although he has grandparents, the old lady at home is not in good health and the old man is old. Life cannot get any worse.

In the era of the production team's big pot, no matter how hard a man works in the fields, no matter how hard he works, he will always be the same. No matter how good his life is, before he becomes successful, there will be no blind people to join in, so for Li Mei's relative, Li He, was not so panicked.

Li He just created opportunities for them now. School is about to start and there is no time.

At present, the whole family is busy preparing for the banquet. Li He took the initiative and ordered a big fat pig directly from Chen Yongqiang, killing more than 300 kilograms of meat. These days, we don’t pay attention to a balanced mix. Vegetables are nutritious, and the most important thing is to have meat. , the fat should be thick, the meat should be large, the key is to keep it full, and drink the wine in a big bowl.

Li He prepared wine, meat and vegetables, and handed over the rest to Li Zhaokun. With the few rules in the countryside, Li He couldn't even intervene if he wanted to. If something went wrong, he might get a reputation for being ignorant.

The day before, Li Zhaokun invited a master chef to do weddings and weddings, set up two large tables on the wheat field, and built a simple stove. He then borrowed tables, chairs, pots, pans, and kettles from various houses.

It is definitely not possible for a single family to get these things together. In rural areas, weddings are held in such a way that each other borrows them from each other, and the banquets are all held in their own yards.

The day before the banquet, Li He's uncle, uncle, aunt, and aunt all came over early to help split wood, chop vegetables, and wash vegetables.

When it was time to go to bed at night, the aunt's family all went to Li Fucheng's side. Wang Yulan's family didn't want to bother anyone, so they crowded here. The women slept in the house with their children, and the men just spread out mats and slept outside.

They all got up early the next day. Li Zhaokun was very organized, assigning work to whom, troublesome people to do, and who to ask for work. There was no ambiguity at all. There were those who carried water, those who chopped firewood, those who were responsible for cooking, and those who chose vegetables and washed them. There are those who serve the dishes, those who clear the tables, those who wash the dishes, those who help in the kitchen, those who serve the plates, those who boil large teapots, and those who serve tea and pour water. There is a lot of work inside and outside.

Li He had to be a good boy. After Li Zhaokun said hello, he had to offer people cigarettes. There were 12 banquet tables. Although half of the children occupied a small half, Li He also had to follow. People from the tables behind me went to pay their respects, and they couldn't be vague. In the end, my head was buzzing, and I couldn't hear anything other people said.

After the toast, Li Zhaokun looked at Li He, who was pale and his eyes were red, and cursed, "De Xing, you only drink so much, you don't follow me at all."

Second life is not long, some wonderful things can only be experienced once, and some pains have to be experienced twice!

When I woke up from sleeping in the grove, there were only a few relatives left at home, and they were almost all packed up. I just gave away a few benches and finished the packing.

Relatives packed up uneaten fish and pork, and they were very happy.

After the relatives have left, the brothers and sisters take turns delivering some leftover dishes to the family who helped cook for the past two days. This is also the rule in the countryside.

In the evening, after Li Zhaokun finished calculating the gift account, he muttered and cursed, "Grandma, you're such a bear, you've lost so much."

Li Mei asked curiously, "How much is it?"

Li Zhaokun said, "27 yuan, 50 cents and 2 cents, not counting the 30 yuan given by the production team, I didn't have enough money for cigarettes and alcohol. I bought 47 yuan for both cigarettes and alcohol. After smoking, it was very clean. Let alone the food, these old goods are cheap." It’s too big.”

"It's okay. It's just this time. Look, no one will praise your appearance this afternoon. If you don't come back, our mothers won't be able to have fun at home." Li He didn't have much hope for the gift money. He was just here for the appearance. .

Li He sincerely praises this. It would be impossible to play without him. Li Zhaokun is also a face-loving person. He is very happy to have such a big occasion today. "Nonsense, it's just the banquet. We are the first share of Li Zhuang. Whoever provides Hongtashan and whoever drinks to welcome the driver, the pork is enough for them." The gift money was doubled several times.”

It was rare for Li Zhaokun to be so normal today and speak calmly. Li He said with the intention of persuading him, "Dad, I'm thinking, I'm going to leave soon. This family still depends on you. Otherwise, you can stay at home. There's someone here." Take care of me, life at home is okay now."

Li Zhaokun glanced at Li He and said, "Don't worry about me. Don't think that getting into college is a big deal."

Li He almost came out with a mouthful of old blood...

Seeing Li Zhaokun busy and busy, the good impression he had gained during the day was gone, and his popularity turned to black.

At midnight, Li He was lying in the yard, actually not asleep. According to the memory of his previous life, he knew what would happen. He hoped that there would be changes in this life. Happiness is not the end of the long road, nor is it the other side of the river, but this Small changes along the way.

Obviously, he was disappointed

Later in the night, he heard the sound of the door opening in the house, and a figure slowly exited the house while closing the door, holding a bag in his hand.

When the figure passed by Li He, he paused obviously and remained silent for about two minutes. Then he squatted on the ground and opened the bag, seemed to take out something, picked up a stone from the ground and pressed it on it, and finally stood up. He got up and left without looking back.

Li He stood up slowly and chased out of the yard. Looking at the figure walking further and further away, tears fell unconsciously. It was not that he wanted to cry, but he couldn't cry when he wanted to, so the tears fell unconsciously.

Even if he was reborn, he still couldn't change the ending that he deserved. He suddenly felt that rebirth was an illusion, a dream. He was powerless and couldn't change anything. He felt so helpless and hesitant.

Lying on the mat, watching the sky outside getting brighter little by little, I felt no sleepiness at all.

At dawn, there was a burst of crying in the house. Li He did not go to comfort Wang Yulan. Maybe she was used to crying.

Li Zhaokun finally left to find what he was looking for. Probably only he knew.

Li Mei quietly pulled Li He aside and whispered, "He took all of Grandma's money and kept only 100 yuan."

Li He took out a handful of 10-yuan coins that Li Zhaokun had pressed in front of his feet when he left in the middle of the night, and said, "You also left 100 for me."

When hosting the banquet, most of it came from the small coffers of the brothers and sisters. Wang Yulan's money was basically untouched. With the savings at this stage, even if the remaining 200 yuan was deducted, Li Zhaokun took at least 1,600 yuan with him when he left. Where's the money?

The whole family was in a depressed mood that day. Mr. Li Fucheng came over to take a look and the cigarette pot was broken.

After lunch, Li He greeted Da Zhuang and asked him to hitch a donkey cart and go to the commune in the afternoon. He was about to start school and needed to apply for a household registration transfer certificate.

We went to the commune first and then to the police station. We were familiar with each other. We saw that he was the top scholar in the county. Although he didn’t try to curry favor, he didn’t care about it either. He even joked a few words with a smile. It took only one cigarette to write the certificate, bang. I gave him an official seal and that was it. Li He politely gave me 2 packs of cigarettes when he left.

On the way back, he met He Jun, the commune cadre who had sent him a notice last time. Li He got off the donkey cart and said hello, "Granny He, long time no see."

He Jun stopped on the bicycle path and said, "Hello, classmate Li. Long time no see. What are you doing?"

Li He shook a few pieces of paper in his hand and said, "Haha, isn't school starting soon? I've completed the household registration transfer."

He Jun said with a smile, "I thought you had forgotten it, and I am going to remind you when I have time."

Li He felt that this was also a thoughtful person. In the future, He Jun would also be a local leader. It would not hurt to make good friends with the local top subordinates. He said, "How can we forget this? Cadre He, if you are fine, please give me a reward. Let's go to the Qiaotou restaurant to drink." A glass of wine.”

He Jun didn't hesitate to be polite, he immediately agreed and headed towards the Qiaotou restaurant together.

He hid his thoughts of taking care of his juniors, while Li He was thinking about the short-term investment and long-term returns. They each made up their minds to treat themselves. When ordering, you came and went, no one was polite, chicken, duck, fish and meat were all available.

Da Zhuang looked speechless. There were commune cadres nearby, but he didn't dare to interrupt. Even meeting Liu Chuanqi and other brigade cadres were frightened.

But the restaurant owner next to me understood what he was thinking and said with a smile, "With so many dishes, the three of you can finish them together, right?"

Li He was very familiar with the restaurant owner. He harvested eels in Qiaotou every day and took care of all the meals at his house. He was not pretentious and said with a smile, "Then you just eat the special dishes. If you are not satisfied with the meal, you will not be paid. I will give you a taxi." I won’t give you any money even if I die.”

The restaurant owner smiled, pointed to the banner on the wall and said, "It's a small business, no credit."

Several people laughed.
