Chapter 111 The abandoned baby picked up (1)
In the summer of 66, chaos began to break out across the country, but Nanshan Village, 50 kilometers away from the center of Beijing, remained calm and seemed not to be affected.
The afternoon sun scorched the earth, the heat was steaming, and even the cicadas on the trees stopped chirping.The whole village was unbelievably quiet.
Most people who are working will take a short rest at home, and will not go out until the gong rings to start a new round of work.
Families with special difficulties would take advantage of their lunch break to go to the fields to cut grass, dry it and sell it to the brigade.
The half-grown child with nothing to do ran around the village despite the heat.
A group of boys passed behind a house, threw a stone at the eaves, and then dispersed.
Ye Chu, the little girl walking behind them, didn't realize anything was wrong. The seven or eight-year-old boy hated people and ghosts and didn't do anything strange. Maybe he was afraid that the owner of the house would come out and scold him, so he ran so fast. .
However, when she passed by, she was attacked head-on. A swarm of wasps buzzed towards her and landed on her head, face, and neck.
At first, she reflexively raised her hand to hit him, but when she realized something was wrong, she quickly ran away.
As she ran, she thought, those little boys just now were smashing a hornet's nest!So abominable.They ran away, causing her to be stung into a pig's head.
Ye Chu was stung with big red envelopes all over his face, including his neck.But she couldn't care about it for the time being.After running home, I sat on the threshold of the main room and gasped, trying to calm my overloaded heart, but it was of little use.
Her vision gradually turned black, and she felt like everything around her was moving away from her, and she fell to the ground.
When Chang Ning opened his eyes, he felt uncomfortable anywhere on his body.My stomach is burning, my head, face and neck are all in pain, and it's a little itchy, making me want to scratch.The whole person was still sweating, which was an obvious symptom of hypoglycemia.
No wonder no one wants to do the task of the small world of the era.The life is too hard, but the difficulty is not great. The points given are few, and the profit may not be as much as the loss.
In addition, the grievances and obsessions of the poor little people were not big enough to affect the stability of the small world, and the impact on the source world was even smaller. Although they were captured, they did not receive the attention of the leaders, and most of them were suppressed. Eat ashes in the Space-Time Management Bureau.
But it's not bad for her.She had destroyed a small world before and was supposed to be sent to the land reclamation team to be a savage. However, her parents worked hard to turn these small worlds that no one went to into "punishment missions" so that she could come here to relax. Vacation.
In the past, this kind of small world was used to deceive retired bosses who had worked so hard to do tasks and accumulated enough points to retire in the small world. She could be regarded as saving them in disguise.
He took out a piece of chocolate from the space and ate it. Feeling a little more comfortable, Chang Ning sat there and accepted the memory of this 12-year-old girl.
She was the only one at home now, so she had nothing to worry about. She got up and closed the door, went straight into the space, took a bath in the spiritual spring, cured the wasp bag, and took the elixir, and then she felt truly alive.
The original owner, Ye Chu, was an abandoned baby who was picked up by her adoptive father Ye Haibo from the Beishan Mountains more than 20 miles away.
This is not a secret in the village, because Ye Haibo's experience of adopting her is quite legendary.
Ye Haibo is a rare educated person in the village. He reads a lot, but people in the village say that he is stupid because of reading.
When Xinhua was first established, there were no chaotic movements like these later, and everyone's life was relatively easy.As for farmers, as long as they have land, as long as they are diligent and willing to work, and as long as God does not act like a monster, they can at least have enough food and clothing.
At that time, many people still had a few books at home, handed down from their ancestors.
Some people have a lot of medical books in their families, so they study hard and grow up to be a barefoot doctor; some people have a lot of history books in their families, and they can learn smarter after reading too many.
Ye Haibo's family had a lot of fantasy novels, and if he read them too much, his character would become distorted, and he would only focus on cultivating and becoming an immortal.When his parents were alive, they could still restrain him.But after his parents died, he was like a wild horse, out of control.
In the autumn of 54, he made up his mind to go deep into Beishan to practice Buddhism.He didn't hide his behavior. He would say to everyone he met, "I'm going to live in the mountains. I'll drink some mountain spring water and eat some pine nuts every day. Maybe it won't be long before I become successful in my practice."
Everyone almost died laughing at him.
In line with the mentality of watching the excitement and not taking it too seriously, and with the idea of letting him suffer a little bit to give up completely, no one stopped him.They all thought that he wouldn't be able to hold on for long anyway, so he had to come back obediently.No one would be stupid enough to starve themselves to death, right?
Everyone is right.After two days in the mountains, he couldn't stand it anymore.
How could there be so many pine nuts for him to eat?Beishan is not a place with springs. There is an ultra-fine stream of water in a crack in the rocks.Unfortunately, there were no pine trees around this small stream. If he wanted to drink water, he had to stay here.If you want to eat pine nuts, you have to go far to find them.
Two days later, he gave up practicing and decided to leave the mountain.Just when he was about to walk out of the mountain, he faintly heard the cry of a baby.
Although Ye Haibo was very unreliable, he was kind-hearted. When he heard the cry, he couldn't pretend not to hear it, so he followed the sound and found the original owner who was lying on the ground.
If such a little baby is left here alone, there will definitely be no good results.Beishan is an inaccessible place, and the nearest village is 10 miles away. I wonder if this child can wait until the next person comes?
After thinking about it, Ye Haibo couldn't sit idly by after all. He picked him up and walked all the way back home.
By the time he reached the village, he was already staggering and almost lost his balance.
When people in the village saw him from a distance, they started to joke at the top of their lungs: "Hai Bo, are you back? How are you? Have you made any progress in your practice?"
Ye Haibo was too tired to speak.
When the villagers saw that he was silent, they thought he had learned his lesson and planned to come back to farm, so they stopped laughing at him.
But when he got closer and took another look, everyone was shocked: "Where did this child come from?"
Ye Haibo sat down on the ground, his whole body feeling weak: "Whoever has something to eat, give me a bite."
He was almost exhausted.
Aunt Zhang from the village head came home and brought him a piece of mixed flour pancake. He devoured it so much that he choked and coughed, and the crumbs of the pancake spurted out from his mouth.
When Aunt Zhang saw it, she quickly hugged the original owner. "Eat slowly, or it will squirt on the child's face."
Ye Haibo beat his chest with his fist, stretched his neck and swallowed the stuck cake, and then said: "I picked it up at the foot of Beishan Mountain. I don't know who threw it there."
Aunt Zhang looked at the child in her arms. She was very well-behaved and neither cried nor fussed. Maybe she was too hungry to even cry. "I'll take her back and ask my eldest daughter-in-law to give her two mouthfuls of milk. You can rest here for a while."
Aunt Zhang's eldest daughter-in-law has given birth to a child for a year, but she has not yet been weaned, so she can still feed the child. Life was not difficult for everyone in 54. Aunt Zhang's daughter-in-law also had plenty of milk.
Anyway, when the original owner was eating, he choked like Ye Haibo. He was crying and coughing while holding on to others and not letting go.Cough twice, drink twice, cough twice more, and drink again.
Aunt Zhang and her daughter-in-law were both amused by the child's way of eating, and felt extremely sad at the same time.
Aunt Zhang sighed: "How hungry are you!"
Her daughter-in-law asked, "Will this child follow Haibo from now on?"
The two looked at each other, always feeling that this child's future was not bright.
