Sha Yuer from Xiasha Village used to be a scoundrel boy. However, this cannot be blamed on him. When he was eight years old, his parents divorced and his father was away. He married another wife who was said to be somewhat beautiful, and since then, his conscience has been cut off. He has never returned home or sent money back home. It seems that he has never had a son named Shaler. My mother has also married someone, and my new husband's family is a bit poor. I work outside with my husband and have a son and a daughter. I rarely come home and have never seen him.
Fortunately, he has a kind grandfather. Since the age of eight, he has relied on his grandfather for survival. However, at the age of fourteen, his grandfather also died of illness and left him, leaving him alone in this dilapidated courtyard of his own.
During the time after his grandfather passed away, he was sad for a long time and often brought his yellow dog to his grandfather's grave to cry and talk to him. However, he was still a young man, and time quickly healed his sadness. He became happy again and lived a comfortable life.
After his grandfather passed away, he did not go to school again. At the age of fourteen, it is not difficult for him to support himself in this world. Grandpa left him a lot of food, as well as 352 yuan, one pig, one cow, fifteen chickens, and twenty-three ducks. In the three acre and five fen paddy fields, the rice grows well. The five acre dry land is divided into an orchard and a vegetable garden. Dozens of chestnut trees are planted in the orchard, and various vegetables are grown in the vegetable garden.
He is not lazy, a young man without anyone to take care of him, and he always wanders around the fields and water every day. Although he is not yet a skilled farmer, he has followed suit. The rice in the field is not growing well, nor is it wild. The vegetables in the vegetable garden are also green and red, enough for him to eat. Calling him a scoundrel is also a true scoundrel. For example, when a family in the village holds a wedding banquet for their daughter and daughter-in-law, he is not polite and does not give gifts. He sits on the table with a big bang, just letting go of his stomach to eat and drink. The elders cursed him kindly:
You wild brat, come and eat for free without giving a red envelope
Calling him a wild cub actually has no malicious intent here. The meaning is that he is too 'wild' and does not follow the rules of the mountain village. His ears listened as he picked up the fattest meat and put it into the bowl with his chopsticks, while wiping the oil with the back of his hand and responding.
San Bo, can you lend me some money and I'll give you a red envelope? I'll pay you back when I have money
Everyone burst into laughter. San Bo also smiled and didn't get angry, even adding meat to his bowl. The people in the village are simple, and Shaler has eaten a hundred kinds of food, but no one really dislikes him.
If there are no more vegetables to eat in the garden, or if he sees delicious melons and beans in someone else's garden, he will not hesitate to pick a few. The owner of the vegetable garden saw it and smiled sweetly.
Auntie, your melons are so sweet. I'll pick them and taste them fresh
Although the host is angry in his heart, it's not easy to scold him. He is an orphan, who has the heart to scold him? Fortunately, he is not greedy and does not do such things often.
Not only did he refuse, but he also mixed up. Often doing things that make people laugh and cry.
Second sister-in-law, look... your pants are torn and your flesh is showing
Second sister-in-law Yinxiang, very beautiful, in her twenties, is his favorite woman, so he always likes to joke with her. The people of Xiasha Village all have the surname Sha, a descendant of one ancestor. Either elders, peers or juniors.
Yinxiang was surprised, her pants were torn, which was not fun. She turned her head around to look, but couldn't see the torn part.
I haven't seen it yet. I've already seen white meat on my butt
Yin Xiang quickly covered her buttocks, afraid of making a fool of herself, but when she turned her head and looked again, she didn't see any holes and knew that Sha Le was playing with her.
You idiot, I won't kill you
When she came to find Shaler, Shaler had already laughed heartily and ran away. The crowd around her burst into laughter, and Yin Xiang was laughed at so much that she cried, neither laughing nor blushing like a red cloth. There was nothing she could do about it.
The most outrageous thing is that he loves to bathe in the river the most. I'm fifteen or sixteen years old, and I always take off completely. I don't wear pants when I go ashore. Causing the girls around him to feel embarrassed and run around, while those aunties scolded him.
Xiaole, you're such a hooligan at such a young age. Let's see if we don't cut off your little chicken
Auntie, spare your life... I didn't mean to. You can't wear pants when taking a shower, can you? "He covered his penis with both hands." Besides, it's not a little chicken now. Is it still a little chicken like this
The aunties around couldn't help but laugh or cry. Not only is he not small, but he is also a bit big. These old women are nothing, those big wives may sometimes have a pounding heart.
The most chaotic incident, a big joke, is still circulating in several surrounding villages. That was the season when summer and autumn intersected, and he kept ducks by the riverbank. Take a bath in the river while releasing ducks. After taking a shower, I didn't wear clothes and fell asleep under a tree. Straw was piled up under the tree, and when I slept, I didn't forget to cover my head with straw. I also acted out a drama by covering my little chicken with a torn duck egg shell.
After a while, he went to sleep. More than ten women came to cool off under the tree, among whom was Silver Fragrance. His body was covered with straw, and the women didn't notice him.
Oh, there's a duck egg here
Yin Xiang saw the eggshell that covered the Shaler chicken and thought it was an egg laid by a duck. Ducks often lay eggs in the wild, so I picked them up casually. Picking up the eggshell, Shaler's erect chicken suddenly stretched out, and Yinxiang was startled and took three steps back in a row.
Damn it, who is it
Shaler was awakened by the disturbance and turned over to get up. The women immediately ran away, cursing while running, and the one who cursed the most fiercely was of course Yin Xiang. This kind of thing spread quickly, spreading throughout the village in just one afternoon. Everyone laughed and cursed, tears streaming down their faces as they cursed uncontrollably. But at that time, Shaler was still young, only fourteen years old.
Sha Yuer is already seventeen years old now. Seventeen year old Shaler looks a bit like a typical dog, with a height of 1.78 meters. She works in the fields every day, sweating in the sun. Her body is full of strong muscles, and her skin is tanned from the sun. He still goes down to the river to take a shower, but now he will wear a pair of shorts and no longer be naked. He rarely does those scoundrels and scoundrels again, but his reputation still lingers. When people in and out of the village mention him, they always think of that scoundrel joke.
It's almost autumn, and the rice in the fields has been harvested. He came back from the field, chasing a group of ducks with a small fish basket at his waist, which contained over a pound of loaches. He is skilled at catching loaches. During this season, in addition to his daily work, he can always bring home a pound or two of loaches and eels.
It was getting dark, so when I got home, I went to the vegetable garden to pick a few eggplants, pulled a few onions, and washed the rice and cooked for myself. Did he make it himself? Is there an air tank for cooking? Gas stove, no need to burn fire. After a while, the food will be fragrant.
Yuer, Yuer brother
Someone called him outside. The yellow dog raised started barking.
Gang Mengzi, are you shouting soul
He was called by his childhood friend Sha Gang, nicknamed Gang Mengzi. Shaler's home is far away from the village and is a single family. Shaganger's home is in the big village below. They are three generations of cousins, who are the same year as him but younger than him by a month.
Shaler let the fierce child into the yard.
Le'er Ge, what do you see in my hand
Just now, Mengzi revealed a wine bottle in his hand. There is half a bottle of wine in the bottle.
What, just half a bottle of wine? It's worth showing off too
This is good wine, "said Gang Mengzi with a proud expression on his face." Look, Shaoyang Jin wine costs more than fifty yuan per bottle. Today, my father and father invited the village chief to drink, and I stole the remaining half of the bottle. Do you have any good dishes
Xiasha Village, with less than 200 households, is considered one village along with Shangtao Village, and the village chief and branch secretary are all from Shangtao Village. Xiasha Village is always bullied. To do something, it's either treating guests or giving gifts.
Looking at this half bottle of wine, Shaler was also moved.
There are no good dishes, only loaches
Isn't that a good dish? "A mouthful of saliva flowed out of Mengzi's mouth just now. People here really like to eat loaches, which cost seven or eight yuan per kilogram.
The loaches are being fed in the pottery jar. Go and fetch the catties
He can catch a few pounds of loaches every day. Sometimes he eats some himself, but if he eats them every day, they lose their flavor. When he doesn't eat, he keeps them in a pottery jar and sells them in town for some money.
Just as Mengzi caught at least two pounds of loaches, Shaler gave him a glare and he just chuckled.
Picking bags, there are so many in the pottery jar, probably five or six pounds. You catch loaches so hard, can I eat a few more to make up for you? I'll catch them again tomorrow
Shaler stopped talking to him and when the rice was cooked, he started stir frying eggplants. Gang Mengzi washed the loach clean and sat down on a small wooden chair.
Le'er Ge, where is Xiaojin
Who knows where it went, maybe it went to find a girlfriend
Hehe, we don't have any girlfriends to play with, but this little snake is nourishing. Let's go find a girlfriend
After listening to Shaler's words, Gang Mengzi chuckled again. Xiao Jin is a snake that Sha Yuer raised when she was ten years old, with a golden snake body, hence the name Xiao Jin. Thinking back to raising this snake at the beginning, Shaler still feels guilty now.
In the winter when he was ten years old, he was still a typical mischievous child. Once in the snow, he saw a golden little snake frozen into an ice stick. He thought it was fun and took it home, put it in a small bamboo tube, and then wrapped the tube in a blanket. I didn't expect the snake to come back to life, but it was sickly and didn't eat, sleeping all day long.
He is very anxious, but he doesn't know what to do. He was afraid that his grandfather wouldn't let him keep it, so he put the snake in a brick hole in the cowshed, blocked the gaps around it with grass, and didn't let it freeze. He just went to see it every day.
Grandpa didn't know he had a snake. In spring, the snake suddenly stopped suffering from illness. He released it and circled around it a few times. A big rooster came over to peck it, but it jumped up fiercely and took a bite on the chicken's body. The big red rooster didn't even jump and died, and its red comb instantly turned black.
He was taken aback, knowing it was a venomous snake. He was so scared that he screamed in his heart, 'Oh my mom!'. He dare not run, the little snake is very agile and slides quickly.
Snake, don't bite me
The snake seemed to understand his words and only circled around his feet. Then he hissed a few times, climbed over his instep, and swam flexibly outward. He felt his soul come out of its shell and float on the white clouds. When he saw the little snake leave the yard, his soul returned to its shell and took a long breath, his face turning from green to white and then to red.
Afraid that Grandpa would find out that the chicken was bitten to death by a snake, he brought it up to the mountains and buried it. When he came back, his heart kept pounding. At night, Grandpa disappeared and searched everywhere for the rooster, but he dared not make a sound. In the end, Grandpa couldn't find him and thought he had been dragged away by a weasel.
He is grateful that he has passed a level. Two days later, I went to the place where the chickens were buried and looked around. The grass and crops in the eight foot square garden were dead and withered. If this is bitten by a little snake, people will be like these weeds.
I thought the little snake had left and wouldn't come back. But when he woke up the next day, he found something moving around his neck. It was the golden little snake crawling around his neck, constantly sticking out its tongue to lick him. The red snake letter swayed, occasionally licking his face, icy cold.
He was so scared that his body stiffened and he dared not move.
Snake, don't scare me. You're the one I saved, don't bite me
The snake didn't bite him, but slipped off his neck and crawled into his bed, first on his chest, then on his belly, and then crawled over his little chicken. He even licked his little chicken with the snake letter, almost scaring his soul out of its shell again. His tears flowed out, but he dared not cry out loud. Then, the little snake crawled out of its bed and onto his neck, still hissing and licking his face as before.
Snake, go down and don't bite me
The snake seemed to understand his words and circled around his neck a few times before going down. Standing still on the ground, staring at him with small eyes. He dared not get out of bed, huddled in bed, and wrapped his body neatly.
Grandpa had already gone to the field and was not at home, so he helplessly covered his head. The snake saw no movement from him, climbed up the bed again, crawled into the bed, and its cold body climbed up to his neck again, still sticking out its snake letter to lick his face.
Snake... do you want me to get out of bed and play with you? You... you can't bite me
He finally burst into tears. Snake got off Song again, holding her head high under the bed and looking at the bed. Gently spitting out snake venom. Shaler doesn't seem to want to bite him when he looks like this. So he put on his clothes and got off the bed. He doesn't wear shoes either - wearing shoes is very troublesome, he has to go to the water to play every day, what shoes should he wear.
Carefully and confidently walked out of the room, the little snake followed behind his feet, twisting its small golden body with a cheerful expression. Wherever he goes, the little snake follows him. He goes down to the field, and the little snake goes down to the field too. Seeing the little snake not biting him, he wasn't too afraid either.
However, my heart still thumped.
Grandpa came back and saw the little snake, which scared his old face pale.
Yuer... this snake... it will bite you... quickly dodge
Grandpa, it doesn't bite me, it's playing with me... Last night it slept with me
What? "Grandpa Yuer's face turned even paler." If it bites you... how could that be good
Looking at his grandfather's pale face, he also felt fearful in his heart. Thinking of the chicken that was bitten to death, how can I not be afraid in my heart? Take a bite and you'll be dead.
So... what should we do
Kill it
Upon hearing Grandpa's words, the little snake raised its head and hissed as it looked at the old man spitting snake letters, with a fierce gleam in its eyes.
Grandpa, don't beat it to death. I'll take it to the mountains
He was afraid that the snake would cause trouble, so he ran up the mountain with the snake. Running into the mountains, he said to Snake, "Snake, play in the mountains by yourself. Don't follow me anymore. Grandpa will be scared to death by you
The snake slipped into the bushes on its own, occasionally glancing back at him as if reluctant to part. Soon, the snake disappeared and Shaler returned home.
Without seeing the snake follow Yuer back, Grandpa felt relieved. But when Shaler woke up the next day, the golden little snake was on his neck again, slowly spitting snake venom and licking on Shaler's face.
Snake, why have you come back again? "Yuer knew that Snake wouldn't bite him, so she no longer feared him and gently touched its back." It's okay for you to come back, but you must not bite people... nor chickens, cows, pigs... Also, don't let Grandpa see you. Do you hear me
I don't know if Snake understood his words, but I saw Snake coquettishly crawling onto his face, passing through his eyes, nose, mouth, and then crawling down again. Snake Nobuko licked the ground where it passed.
Snake, why don't you go play in the mountains during the day and come back at night
The snake didn't make any movement, but after crawling on him for a while, it crawled outside and disappeared into the yard. From then on, the snake went out during the day and returned at night, never biting anyone or livestock. Grandpa Yuer never saw it again, thinking that Snake had really left Yuer.
Until his grandfather passed away, Yuer began to play with the snake during the day, and the villagers only found out that he had kept a very obedient little snake. Yuer also named the little snake "Xiaojin".
Gang Mengzi often comes to play here at Shaler and gets to know Xiao Jin very well. They were talking about Xiao Jin, a golden snake that entered the courtyard in the darkness of night. The yellow dog started barking, and upon hearing the sound of the dog barking, Shaler knew that Xiao Jin had returned.
Xiao Jin
Just now, Mengzi saw the golden snake and let out a cry. The little snake ignored him and quickly climbed onto Shaler's instep, hissing and spitting snake letters on his instep for a while before raising its head to look at Gang Mengzi.
Xiao Jin, come play with me
The golden snake still ignored him, its body wrapped around Shaler's calf, as if it was very happy. The little snake is very small. When Shaler picked it up, it was only six inches long, about the size of a chopstick. It has been growing for over six years and is less than the thickness of a thumb, about a foot long. It only has a small flesh crown on its head, which looks like a crown.
Yuer has also cooked the loach.
Jin'er, go back to your nest
Upon hearing Shaler's shout, the little snake flew into the air and entered the bamboo tube hanging on the beam. The bamboo tube is not big, and Shaler has carved many patterns on the outer skin, which looks quite nice. After entering the bamboo tube, the little snake would occasionally extend its head and quietly look at the two people below.
The two people below started drinking.
Le'er Ge, I've also harvested the rice. There's nothing going on in the fields anymore. My father and father asked me to work in Guangzhou. Are you going
Going to work in Guangzhou? "Sha Yuer took a sip of alcohol, as if the drink was bitter and her eyebrows furrowed. She only felt better after taking a bite of the food." I don't want to go
In fact, he also wanted to visit Guangzhou. Almost all the young people in the village have left Guangzhou, leaving only the elderly and children behind. Second sister-in-law Yinxiang and her husband have both gone to Guangzhou, and staying in the village is too lonely. If the fierce guy had also gone, then no one would have spoken to him.
Spending all day with old men and women makes me feel like I have a coffin board smell.
Le'er Ge, let's go together with a companion, "Gang Mengzi looked at Sha Le'er expectantly." Let's go to Qiang Ge's construction site and help him with the construction work. He currently has over 200 people under his command, all of whom are from our area
Qiang, who was just mentioned by Mengzi, is from the village and works as a contractor in Guangzhou. It is said that he has two to three million employees. After returning from the Chinese New Year, I always drive a small car. Now, I am the number one person in Xiasha Village, and I am considered a celebrity in the surrounding villages.
What about my cows, pigs, chickens, and ducks when I go to work in Guangzhou? Who will take care of them
Hi, let's sell it. "Gang Mengzi also took a sip of tea and wine. He didn't furrow his brow when drinking, indicating that he was an experienced drinker." Farming has a promising future, and even if you're exhausted, you only have enough to eat. Look at Qiang Ge, how proud he is now? The people who work for Qiang Ge have over a thousand a month. How much rice do we need to buy for over a thousand
Just now Mengzi has already drunk a few small cups, and her face is flushed. Shaler is not good at drinking, she hasn't even finished a small cup and her face is clear.
I need to think about this matter again
Want an egg? Don't you want to go to the city to see? The buildings there are dozens of stories high, and the women are lively. Look at the girls from our village who come back so stylish? If you want to stay in this countryside for the rest of your life, are you innocent
Shaler remained silent, but her heart still moved. He has never been to the county town many times, and the tall buildings in the county town have left him amazed. Guangzhou is many times bigger than the county town, and it's really unfair not to go and see the world. Anyway, I'm still young. If it's not easy to stay in the city, just come back.
The young man's heart began to stir.
