Zhen Zhen is very sensitive to the changes in society, but don't know if Beicha is too remote, except that the time to sing/red/recite quotes during school has increased compared to before, other things haven't changed much.

Spring blossoms, Li Muwu removed all the newspapers stuck outside the window, and opened the window that had been closed for four or five months. The room that had been dark for a winter finally shone into the sun again. Taking advantage of the sunny weather, Wang Sufen disassembled and washed all the quilts and mattresses at home, dried them dry and sewed them up again.

The bean bag was only a few months old, and when she was breastfeeding, Wang Sufen still did not let Osmanthus touch the cold water, and only let her do piecemeal work, even if she wanted to wash anything, let her boil a pot of hot water first. In exchange for it, I am afraid that if she catches cold and falls ill, adults and children will suffer. The family has been busy for more than half a month, and the front and back rooms are all tidy and bright, and all kinds of fresh vegetables are planted in the yard.

Since Zhen Zhen used her supernatural powers to help her family grow food, the rice jar and noodle jar in Lao Li’s house was always full. Zhen Zhen also likes to eat all kinds of fresh vegetables, so Mrs. Li doesn’t grow them in the front and back yard. The rice is gone, but it is full of various fruits and vegetables. Anyway, as long as there are seeds, even if there are roots, they can take root and sprout in the vegetable garden of Lao Li's family, so Mrs. Li and Li Muwu have been rushing to the house.

After Mingbei started school, he was busy reviewing his homework from morning to night, and he didn't have time to dig wild vegetables in the mountains. Wang Sufen's family was too busy, and he couldn't care about the pig. Zhen Zhen simply made the front and back of the pigsty covered with vegetables suitable for domestic pigs. When cooking the pig food, you can pick it at any time, and when this piece is plucked, the next piece will grow.

Osmanthus lives in the back room and can't help with the work next to the children, so she takes over the daily cooking of pig food, and then digs some wild vegetables from the vicinity of the pigsty with sweet potato leaves and sweet potato noodles, and chops them up and cooks them. Just pour it into the pig trough. This piece was dug out and the one next to it grew again. The happy Osmanthus said that this piece of land at home was fertile, and it would be good to grow anything.

Under Mrs. Li's lifelong education, Li Muwu is also a person who can resist life and love cleanliness. He picks up the pigsty every once in a while. Don't look at the pigs that Old Li's family has raised for several years, but the pigsty smells clean. nothing.

When the first crop of cabbage grew in Lao Li's home, the cherry tree that had been planted for three years at home finally came to fruition, and the sapling was brought back from Bingcheng by Mingdong. During his school days, Mingdong had to work on the school's farm every few months, from sowing and fertilizing to finally harvesting wheat and pulling radishes. There are several villages near the farm. There is a family with a cherry tree that has been growing for seven or eight years. Every May and June, the tree is full of red cherries. Cherry saplings, Mingdong took advantage of the holiday to exchange food stamps for two trees and take them home by train.

Ming Dong planted the saplings in the open space on the east side of the house, Mrs. Li was afraid that Zhen Zhen would grow a towering tree in minutes, so she could only secretly instruct Zhen Zhen day and night, telling her that she had to wait for the cherry tree in three years. When you grow up, it will bear fruit. Zhen Zhen is not really a child, she used to control the plants to grow at will when there was no one in the mountains, but there are neighbors living in front of the house and behind the house, and she didn't want to make a big noise to make her home become a place for others after dinner. topic.

After waiting for three years, Zhen Zhen saw the sky watching in the yard when the cherry blossoms bloomed this year, and Mrs. Li couldn't help but squeeze the sweat again, and told her to be patient, or wait until the month, so Zhen Zhen can only feel the consciousness of the cherry tree from time to time, water it in time and prune branches, just waiting to eat the big red cherries.

Now that Zhen Zhen finally saw the first naturally ripe cherries, she felt relieved and boldly ripened a bit. After seeing the red cherries all over the tree, Mrs. Li counted the days, so she breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly sighed. He shouted loudly: "Zhen Zhen, hurry up and pick cherries."

Zhen Zhen found a vegetable sink from the kitchen, and stood on the stool and picked it at will to find the cherries that were ripe. Mrs. Li looked at the real thing under the tree. Some cherries were obviously small and green, but the The moment Zhen Zhen touched it, it became red and bigger, and the color was red and bright, not to mention more attractive. Mrs. Li turned her head back quickly and saw that Osmanthus hadn't come out of the room, so she felt relieved, she tugged at the corner of Zhen Zhen's clothes and whispered, "Be careful, don't let your sister-in-law see it."

Zhen Zhen turned her head and nodded, and whispered back: "I know."

After picking the half-pot, Zhen Zhen felt a little bored, she looked around with her consciousness, and saw Osmanthus in the house unpacking and changing the clothes she wore when she was a child. The ground raised the pot, and in an instant, a rain of cherries fell on the tree, and the big red cherries scrambled to fall into the pot that Zhen was holding.

Mrs. Li hurriedly took over the pot of cherries in Zhen Zhen's hand, the heavy weight was so heavy that it didn't touch her waist, she slapped her tongue, Mrs. Li looked at Zhen Zhen in surprise: "Why are you so energetic? , This pot of cherries must weigh ten pounds."

Zhen Zhen jumped off the stool flexibly, took the pot from Mrs. Li's hand with a smile: "I don't know why I'm so strong, it seems like I get stronger every year, but it's not particularly big, the one in our yard I can't lift the big rock of pickled sauerkraut."

Mrs. Li looked at the huge boulder in the yard, and said with tears in her eyes, "That boulder weighs dozens of kilograms. Your father is struggling to carry it, and your third uncle has to lift it together with him. If you What kind of rock can you lift up, you can scare your father to death."

Zhen Zhen took out a small pot of cherries and said without raising her head: "My dad can't be scared to death, he's used to it." When Old Lady Li thought about it, she did, and even watched the crops grow from the seeds instantly. I'm not scared to death, but I'm not surprised to move a stone.

The cherries grown at home are not sprayed with any pesticides, and the cherries can be eaten by scooping water from the water tank twice and flushing them twice. Zhen Zhen picked up the biggest one and stuffed it into Mrs. Li's mouth, Mrs. Li took a bite, her mouth was full of sweet cherry water, she spat out the core, Mrs. Li nodded repeatedly: "This cherry tastes good, Lots of sweet water."

Zhen Zhen laughed and said, "It's the sapling that my brother brought back."

I sent a pot of washed cherries to Wang Sufen, and a pot to my sister-in-law Osmanthus in the backyard. Meat Bun was sitting on the kang playing with the cloth head, when he saw Zhen Zhen came over with a pot of red fruits, he immediately climbed over from the kang, staring at the watery cherries, drooling: "Aunt, I want to eat it too."

Zhen Zhen stretched out her hand and carried him to the edge of the kang to help him put on his shoes: "I went to the courtyard with my aunt to eat, and I picked a pot."

It was the first time that the meat bun had grown so big, so Zhen Zhen pressed him on the small stool and instructed him: "This cherry has a pit in it, so you must spit it out when you eat it, if you swallow it, it will grow a tree. Come on the tree." Zhen Zhen said as she stretched out her fingers and scratched lightly on Meat Bun's stomach.

Meat Bun covered his stomach and was teased and laughed, when he was happy enough, Zhen Zhen handed him a cherry: "You have to sit on the stool and eat it honestly, if you run with the cherry in your mouth, aunt will not given."

Meat Bun nodded again and again, and couldn't wait to put the cherry into his mouth. As soon as he took a bite, a happy smile appeared on his face. even ate a few, but the meat buns seemed to be unpleasant to eat one by one. opened small hands and grabbed a handful of cherries from the basin and stuffed them into mouth, with cheeks bulging, and there was cherry water while biting. It flowed out from the mouth.

Zhen Zhen sat next to her and tasted the taste of cherries carefully. Most of the cherries she ate in her later life were red and purple cherries. Although they were big, they had thicker skins and were sweet with a bit of sourness. , If you eat more, you will have some acid reflux. The cherry tree of Lao Li's family is a local variety, with a thin skin and a little juicy water. You can take a bite of sweet water.

Mrs. Li, Zhen Zhen and Roubao sat in the yard, basking in the sun while eating cherries, braised chicken nuggets also stretched their heads to watch, Zhen Zhen took out a cherry and dangled in front of it Lei Huang: "Want to eat?"

The Soybean Eyes of Braised Chicken Nuggets rolled around, flatteringly circled around Zhen Zhen twice: "Give me a taste."

"Your recipe is getting richer and richer." Zhen Zhen smiled and threw one to it, the braised chicken nuggets pecked at it, Zhen Zhen looked at it curiously: "Can you taste it?"

Braised Chicken Nuggets looked up at Zhen Zhen, then lowered his head and pecked twice, but its mouth was big and responsive, and it quickly smashed the little cherries into pieces. All swallowed.

Seeing this, Zhen Zhen laughed out loud, the braised chicken nuggets flapped her wings and looked at her angrily: "I just can't spit out cores, what's so funny. Besides, we eat chicken even with stones, what do cherries do? If you have time to laugh, you might as well look at your tree, I think there are quite a few birds pecking at your cherries."

Zhen Zhen didn't lift her eyelids when she heard it: "Eat it, it's not bad, as long as it doesn't cause any misfortune."

When birds eat cherries, they always peck one at the east and one at the west. Those who have been bitten by them will turn black and cannot be wanted. Zhen Zhen naturally doesn't care about the cherries. Neither do birds.

A leading bird sensed Zhen Zhen's consciousness, chirped and instructed the flock of birds, and took the lead with the flock of birds, took the cherries and flew them to the ground to eat, and then flew up to peck one. Braised Chicken Nuggets looked red, and snorted proudly: "It's so hard to eat a fruit, no wonder it's so small."

Zhen Zhen looked at it funny: "If you are as fat as you, you don't have to fly, just throw it in the pot and stew."

Braised chicken nuggets are no longer afraid to talk about being stewed, and it flapped its wings proudly: "The milk said, don't stew me, I'm an old rooster, and the meat is not delicious."

"It's quite self-aware." Zhen Zhen looked at it happily, and kept stuffing cherries into her mouth while arguing. Before she knew it, a pot of cherries was eaten up by several people, only then did Zhen Zhen realize that her stomach was bulging.

After burping, she took the enamel jar handed over by Mrs. Li, and sat recklessly on the small stool in the yard, drinking boiled water, she couldn't help but sigh, "What a wonderful day, I don't know. What are you messing around with?"

Although Mrs. Li was in her 60s, she was neither deaf nor blind. When she heard Zhen Zhen talking about being foolish, she quickly asked, "Who is fooling around?"

Zhen Zhen was stunned for a moment, then quickly added a sentence and pointed forward: "It's the Zhang Defu's house that lives over there, his house can be noisy all day long, and I don't know what the noise is."

When Mrs. Li heard this, she sneered: "His family has never been a good bird since he was old, and he spends all day trying to get some of this from the East and that from the West, and he almost died of starvation during the famine without going to the mountains. To open up wasteland and expect to benefit from other people’s homes all day long, this was a scoundrel in the past.”

Osmanthus finished her clothes and came out to move her arms, just when she heard what Mrs. Li said, she immediately said, "It's not that bad, that family is too shameless. I really like Zhang Defu, you think our family kills him. He pretended to be inaudible. When the pig was killed and the pork slices were stewed, he was too embarrassed to come to the house to eat with him. And that time, when we dragged a deer back from the red center, he smelled our barbecue. The smell of it, he knocked on the door and asked his mother to give him a deer leg, and the dog licked his face."

Zhen Zhen listened to Zhile: "The key is that his family can't get any cheap, and he will let the milk scold him as soon as he comes to the door. Why does he get more frustrated and brave?"

"His family is so shameless and skinless. You didn't see that there is no one in our street who loves to communicate with his family. The eldest son of his family is as big as Dongzi, and he has not even mentioned his daughter-in-law. We have a girl in Beicha. When people ask about his family's virtue, they don't like to marry his family, and they hear that his family wants to go to the valley to marry a housewife."

Mrs. Li and Osmanthus were talking about the shortness of their parents, Zhen Zhen had nothing to do and wanted to see Mingdong. After saying hello to Mrs. Li, Zhen Zhen went out the door and went straight to the mountain, where she found a towering tree, Zhen Zhen moved to a sturdy tree branch as soon as she moved. With the cover of branches and leaves, Zhen Zhen carefully concealed her body, and then she came to Anbei after leaving her body.

There is nothing unusual about Mingdong going to Anbei. One is that it is close to home, and the eating and drinking customs are no different from Beicha, and his four-and-a-half-year university career has also made him accustomed to the life in the academy. When farming is currently in progress, Mingdong takes his students to the farm, partly for the self-sufficiency of the school, and on the other hand to combine the content of the book with practice. Agriculture can never be discussed on paper.

Seeing Ming Dong wearing a straw hat squatting in the ground and grabbing a handful of soil, he was enthusiastically explaining the composition of the soil to the students. Shi still had the thought of respecting teachers and teaching. Seeing that Ming Dong was not a few years older than them, he was able to explain the knowledge in the textbooks well, and everyone admired Ming Dong.

Seeing that it was noon, Ming Dong threw the soil in his hands on the ground and was about to go to the cafeteria to eat. At this time, there were two large pots of vegetables in each window of the cafeteria. A big bucket of big ballast porridge and a basket of big pancakes.

When Mingdong returned to the dormitory, he washed his hands and changed his clothes that were covered in soil. Then he took two rice jars to the cafeteria to make meals. The two dishes were the same as one tablespoon, with seven or eight large pancakes placed on top, and the other jar filled with porridge.

Ming Dong picked up a big pancake and took a big bite, then stuffed a mouthful of vegetables into his mouth, looking around with some doubts while chewing. A tall and thin man who looked a few years older than Mingdong sat down opposite Mingdong with a rice bowl. As soon as he sat down, he asked Mingdong, "Why don't you eat well?"

"It's nothing." Mingdong immediately turned his head around: "I'll just see if all the students in our class are here?"

Zhen Zhen saw that Ming Dong didn't say anything stupid when she was getting along with her colleagues, she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, being careful at this time will never go wrong, but when Wen/Ge riots, many of the people who report it are the colleagues around you. with family and friends. Seeing that everything in An Bei was calm, Zhen Zhen felt relieved for a while.

*****

Mingbei worked hard for a year and finally got the day to take the high school entrance exam. After the last subject, Mingbei ran home with a schoolbag. Wang Sufen was cooking in the kitchen, and Mingbei came in cheerfully. Before Wang Sufen could ask questions, he stuffed a book in the kitchen pit. Wang Sufen quickly pulled out two copies, and the others were swept in by the flames. An angry Wang Sufen chased Mingbei with a broom and started beating.

Mrs. Li heard the voice and came out of the east room. Seeing Wang Sufen chasing Mingbei from the room to the outside, Mingbei didn't have the slightest sense of being beaten. he.

"What's the matter?" Mrs. Li stepped on her small feet: "Why did you get beaten up as soon as you came back? Did you fail the test?" Before Wang Sufen could answer, Mrs. Li spoke for Mingbei: "If it's really not about studying, it's fine. Yesterday, Mu Sen came to say that the hydrolysis plant will recruit workers in August, and asked him to go to the plant with Mingnan."

"No mother." Wang Sufen gasped while pinching her waist: "This prodigal child burned all the textbooks when he got home. They were all bought with money. How good would it be for him to keep it for Zhen Zhen in the future?"

Ming Bei stood behind the cherry tree and showed his head: "Come on, my sister is only in the second grade. When she is in the third grade, my book will be too yellow to read the words on it."

Mrs. Li also nodded: "Mingbei is also right, don't get mad at Dongzi Ma, just like his book Mai Tai, Zhen Zhen specified that he would not hesitate to touch it, even if he kept it, no one wanted it."

"It's fine to put up a table and chair, or throw it and I can set it on fire. I don't know what he's thinking." After listening to Mrs. Li's advice, Wang Sufen was not so angry anymore, and pointed at Ming North with a broom. He pointed: "I'll spare you this time, I'll wait for the next time."

"It's definitely not the next time." Mingbei said with a smile, "I've flipped through those books many times this year for exams. I felt like vomiting when I looked at those books. I just wanted to burn them all. Make me happy."

Thinking of Ming Bei's early days and greedy reading, his face has lost a lot of weight, Wang Sufen began to feel distressed for Ming Bei again, and his tone softened: "It's alright, it's alright, you're not meant to study, just burn it. Burn it, hurry up and see if your sister is out of school, I'll give you scrambled eggs at noon."

Only then did Ming Bei get out from behind the tree and went to greet Zhen Zhen with Hong Zhong and Tian Hu. Tianhu followed Hongzhong for half a year, and slowly recognized the name Tianhu. Although his reaction was slow, he knew it was called it. Li Musen saw that Tianhu was making great progress, so he simply put it in Li Muwu's house. Anyway, he usually went to work and his children went to school and no one cared about it, and he also had a companion with Hongzhong.

Zhen Zhen’s school is also taking exams today, as usual, Zhen Zhen handed in the test papers in ten minutes and then went out to wave, Ming Bei took Hong Zhong to the school and looked at the window of the classroom, seeing that Zhen Zhen’s seat was empty, he knew that He instructed Hongzhong in his heart: "Go up the mountain to see where your sister has gone."

Zhen Zhen is walking around the tree on the mountain at this time, now the Cultural and Revolutionary period has begun, the calligraphy, paintings, antiques and treasures have been damaged a lot at this time. She tried continuous teleportation, but it didn't have much effect on her body and spirit. She decided to take advantage of this period to take back some treasures and bury them in the mountains. After the reform and opening up, she would take them out, donate them to the country, or leave them to future generations. It's a huge fortune.

But this thing can't be buried directly, it has to be put in a box, Zhen Zhen is thinking about how to turn the tree into a box. She can use her supernatural powers to knock down the tree, and it can also be cracked into pieces of equal size and thickness, but no matter how rough the tree is, the planks won't be too large. .

She found a tree and divided a few boards to put together all morning, but Zhen Zhen didn't come up with any clues, just when she was about to try again, suddenly two birds flew over and landed on Zhen Zhen's shoulders chattering. Tell it: "Hongzhong is looking for you at the foot of the mountain."

These two birds were discovered by Zhen Zhen when they went to Lao Li's house to eat cherries, only these two of the seventy or eighty birds could communicate with Zhen Zhen, and Zhen Zhen kept them by her side, they could do anything at ordinary times. Be an eyeliner.

Shaking off the sawdust from her body, Zhen Zhen stood up and chose a position not far from Mingbei and moved over, Hong Zhong immediately smelled Zhen Zhen's breath sensitively, and called out twice, happily greeted.

Ming Bei followed Zhen Zhen, and when he saw that Zhen Zhen had a lot of dirt on his face, he couldn't help laughing at her: "Are you skipping school and going up the mountain to go down the rabbit hole?"

"No, I'm digging for treasures." Zhen Zhen replied in a false way, then turned her head and asked him again: "Have you finished the test? How was the test?"

"Anyway, I've done what I need to do. I've worked hard for this year, and I won't be able to do it. I won't bother anymore." Mingbei scratched his head and was a little worried: "You said that if I didn't get into high school. , Can you be admitted to a hydrolysis plant just with a junior high school education?"

Thinking that the Cultural Revolution has begun, and education is less and less important. Although Mingbei is not a child of the hydrolysis factory, the chances are still relatively high because of his family background and Li Muwu's identity as a worker in the grain depot.

Zhen Zhen nodded vaguely: "Should be able to pass the exam, but I heard what Sister Wanqiu said, her family plans to let her go to work after high school."

It is much easier for the children of the hydrolysis plant to enter the plant than those from outside. In late autumn, she is the boss at home, and she can enter the plant to work at any time as long as she wants.

Thinking of the late autumn, Ming Bei's face was a little worried and a little happy, and Zhen Zhen was stunned. She had been a single dog for twenty-four years in her previous life, and she passed through before she could understand. Zhen Zhen said that she really understood this kind of stupid secret love.
