Paying off debts on New Year's Eve, Get up early and go out of the village to climb the mountains
I didn't expect Zitong's mother to be so stubborn, so I definitely can't agree. Zitong and I have been planning this for nearly a year, but I knew that my mother was unwilling to ask for our money, so I didn't remit money. Now I'm taking advantage of the New Year.
The opportunity to put this on the shoulders of the whole family for several years was lifted, why did you give up? Besides, this little money is no longer a big deal for us, so Zitong and I
After taking turns to persuade him, my mother finally agreed to accept it.
She got up and went into the east room. After a while, she came out. She held a notebook in her hand and handed it to Zitong. When she opened it, she saw that it was densely filled with names and numbers behind her. I understand that this must have been before.
The account book that borrowed money, looking at the handwriting and date, it was indeed from a few years ago.
Zitong helped her mother sort out the debts one by one. This house is 3,000, that house is 2,000, this house is 1,200, that house is 850, etc. I hurried to my suitcase to get a stack of envelopes. I was responsible for writing my name. Zi
Tong counted the money, and then asked her mother to count it again. After there was no problem, she put it in envelopes one by one, preparing to go to each household to pay back the money tomorrow morning.
There are so many people, I talk and chat together, especially since I haven't seen each other for a year, I can't finish talking. You and I don't feel it. At this time, I'll be there in a "swoosh" and it's all at once.
It was almost an hour, and Zitong's mother hurriedly got up to boil water. Everyone burned their feet and even put my socks in order to wash them. She said that she must have sweated after walking so far today.
How could that work? I quickly stood up and prepared to come over and wash it by myself. Zitong had already come over and snatched it over and said, Mom, give it to me.
This foot is really comfortable after being hot. The heat is rising and the whole body is warming up. I guess my mother must have known that Zitong and I have lived together for a long time, but this is at home, so you must pay attention.
Otherwise, it would be rumored to be out, so I arranged for Zilong and I to sleep in the west room on the second floor. My mother asked Zitong to bring a new quilt and a new blanket on the bed. Before going to bed, I deliberately teased Zilong at night
Don't urinate.
Zilong hurriedly shook his head and said, "Brother-in-law, I have never wet the bed. Really, don't believe me, ask my elder sister."
OK, OK, I believe you, go to bed.
Zitong's mother lives downstairs, and there are three rooms upstairs. Zitong is going to sleep with her mother today
After all, Hunan still belongs to the south. Although it is the cold winter month, it is not very cold. If it is my hometown in Pengcheng, it will be cold at this time. If you cover yourself with a quilt, you will definitely not be able to sleep.
I slept very well and warmly that night, and I didn't feel cold. As soon as the sky was dawn, I couldn't sleep anymore. It was also uncomfortable to lie down. And I had heard a sound in the yard. It was probably because my mother got up.
.I got dressed and went downstairs, poured hot water, washed my face, and wanted to wipe the snow cream, but Zitong pulled the box into her mother's house, forget it.
I walked into the yard. It was already dark when I came yesterday. I didn’t see it clearly. Now I saw it clearly. There are mountains on three sides of this place, with tall mountains, lush trees and green trees all over the mountains and fields, and the grass is in the sky, but it is not all deserted.
I don’t know if some beautiful woman accidentally knocked over her rouge powder so that the withered grass was decorated with sporadic rouge, or the winter girl felt that her makeup was too light and put on a little makeup.
The cold wind took away the last fallen leaf. My mother came out of the kitchen and saw that it was me. She hurriedly asked me why I got up so early.
I smiled and said, "I'm used to it, this is what I call it. Auntie, I'll go out for a walk."
OK, don't go far, I'll start making breakfast right away.
I agreed, opened the door, walked out, looked in the wind, and the sun had already revealed its head, giving this shrill winter a ray of sunshine warmth. A row of telephone poles outside the village stood abruptly, and the birds disappeared.
The cypress trees along the roadside along the village were covered with vicissitudes of green, without the greenness of spring, without the calmness of summer, nor the calmness of summer, nor
The ripening of autumn is only the desolation of winter, standing there facing the cold wind, growing silently.
From a distance, the dwarf pine on the mountain became more and more blue and black, with a bun of white flowers on the top of the tree, like a Japanese caregiver. The top of the mountain turned white, and a silver edge was placed on the blue sky. On the hillside, there were some places
The snow is thicker, and the grass is still exposed in some places; in this way, one is white and the other is dark yellow, putting a flower dress with water marks on the mountains; as they looked, the flower dress seemed to be blown by the wind
Move, you want to see a more beautiful mountain skin.
This village is not big, with only thirty or forty households. Unlike our hometown, hundreds or thousands of households live together and thousands of households. It is so lively during the Chinese New Year. I found that there are several households.
The house is very distinctive, and this is the first time I have seen this format.
I saw that these houses were almost all built beside the foot of the mountain, hanging high on the ground, looking beautiful and exquisite, and were about to fly in the air. There were many wooden pillars underneath, as if they were used to carry sheep and pigs inside. Everyone lived on the second floor.
Flowers and plants are planted in front and behind the house, especially the window grids on the upper floor, which are classic and elegant and very distinctive.
It was only then that I noticed that there was a spacious floor at the door, surrounded by a fence, and there were a lot of vegetables planted outside the fence.
I thought it was very cold, but when I really walked into the wind's arms, I didn't feel much chill. The sounds were like the wind crying constantly. I looked up at the foot of the mountain, and a small path was winding upwards.
Although it was covered with weeds and messy leaves, the path was very clear. As the footsteps swayed, it was like a snake, winding upwards, occasionally blocked by plants and trees, and then quickly climbed out and stood on the mountain.
Looking down, hiding like a snake, without words, just staying quietly. I slowly moved my steps and climbed to the top of the mountain. The cold wind caressed the grass, and the grass whistled and passed by quickly.
It stretches into the distance, with rugged mountain roads, but it has a unique taste.
Looking at this endless mountain, although it cannot be compared with the towering mountain Tai, Huping Mountain is also the highest roof of Hunan, and it is definitely a veritable mountain. Zitong said that her grandfather used to go to the county town for a meeting.
, they all walked along, and it took five or six days for these more than 200 miles of mountain roads.
Speaking of Zitong's grandfather, in their hometown, the older generation is also a well-known figure. I heard that her grandfather studied medicine when she was young and went to Changsha to study. Later, the Anti-Japanese War broke out and he participated.
The army became a military doctor. During the Liberation War, with the peaceful uprising of Cheng Qian's troops, he also returned to his hometown and was appointed as the director of the Changde Regional Leprosy Hospital, which is located in Huping Mountain.
