Chapter 2: As far as two eyes can reach, as far as ten fingers
If you have no way out, how can you wait for death?
When Zhang Benmin saw that there was no way out, he simply continued to go deeper, turned around and walked out of the inner door of the stove and came to the yard.
There was a stone mill at the north end of the yard. Under the hazy moonlight, a black ball was covered with darkness. Zhang Benmin trotted over with his toes and hid behind him.
This trouble woke up the big goose in the fence in the yard and started screaming.
Zhang Benmin's heart was tight, damn, is it really God is going to kill me?
Sure enough, Zheng Chengxi, who had already lit a kerosene lamp in the stove, raised his ears. After all, it was at a critical moment and no abnormalities could be ignored. After listening for a while, the big goose still didn't stop. It seemed that there was really a problem!
Zheng Chengxi walked out of the inner door of the stove, held up the kerosene lamp, looked into the courtyard, and finally settled on the side of the stone mill.
Zhang Benmin, who was squatting after grinding, saw it from under the grinding groove, and his heart suddenly rose to his throat.
"father!"
Suddenly, it sounded at the door of the main house. At some point, Zheng Jinhua was already standing there.
Zhang Benmin was so shocked that he almost stopped breathing. His scalp was already unconscious and his mind was blank.
"Jin, Jinhua?" Zheng Chengxi's voice sounded a bit unfair.
"Yeah."
"What are you doing, you gray girl? This is in the middle of the night, scaring ghosts!" Zheng Chengxi was a little angry and embarrassed at this moment, "The big goose was shocked by you!"
"I'm going to pee."
"You just scatter your urine, what are you calling?"
"I didn't bring the urine jar into the house, so I'm afraid of the darkness when I came out."
"Okay, okay, pee quickly."
"It's dark in the cottage, I can't find any pit."
"The yard is so big, where can I pee?"
"oh."
Hearing this, Zhang Benmin really felt that he had survived the disaster. Of course, the person he thanked the most should be Zheng Jinhua, and his deskmate. Although Zheng Jinhua is arrogant and domineering on weekdays, Zhang Benmin suffered a lot, but now, if possible, he would willingly call her "Auntie!"
Just as he was secretly glad, he saw Zheng Jinhua heading straight for Shimu. Zhang Benmin immediately started to complain again. Damn, was this fool discovered by this trick girl?
It was just a false alarm.
Zheng Jinhua came to Shimonan, pulled down his pants and squatted down.
Zhang Benmin, who had already squatted to Shimobei, looked at it, although it was not very clear, but it was enough to clearly identify the white butt.
Zhang Benmin's eyes widened wider and wider, as if he could see the touch, and his eyes reached as if they were reaching ten fingers.
It is not easy to have fun in danger, but it also has an inexplicable pleasure, like a dream and a illusion.
In a trance, Zhang Benmin found that the white slid up and down, and it was shook and shook again and again, and seemed a little helpless and impatient.
"Dad!" Zheng Jinhua shouted.
"What's wrong?" Zheng Chengxi broke back from the stove.
"I'm used to using urine jars at night, and now I'm squatting on the ground in the yard and can't urinate."
"You talk about you!" Zheng Chengxi was very angry, but there was no way. From the bottom of his heart, he really loved his daughter. "Then he took the urine jar to urinate in the house. After urinating, he quickly went to bed. He had to get up early to go to school tomorrow morning."
"Oh." Zheng Jinhua said as she stood up, and when she raised her hands, the slightest bleakness disappeared.
Zheng Jinhua entered the house with a urine jar. Zhang Benmin was still looking around. When he came to his senses, he pounded his thighs hard: Zhang Benmin, Zhang Benmin, you are trying to die! Escape is important!
Zhang Benmin hugged and slipped to the inner door of the stove. He confirmed that Zheng Chengxi had entered the side room, so he quietly walked out of the main door of the stove.
As soon as he walked out the door, he heard Zheng Chengxi scolding inside, "It's so bad that he is crazy about being hungry, even his mother's paper is eaten. Yes, but that's my real money!"
Zhang Benmin laughed secretly, it seemed that the temporary measures were effective.
"Hey, there's so much less!" Zheng Chengxi started cursing again, "It's all dragged into the hole!"
Zhang Benmin didn't listen anymore. He escaped from danger and should not stay for a long time. Please retreat quickly. The most important thing to do next is to go back and sort out the future.
After entering the house, I stood in the yard and breathed a sigh of relief.
In the clouds like white cotton, the moon jumped around. The two old ducks in the corner of the wall looked at them with their heads protrudingly, very surprised.
What a refreshing summer night.
Zhang Benmin gradually calmed down. He looked around and saw that the lights were still on in grandma's room.
The light of the soybean oil lamp is really weak, and it is not easy to be noticed under the bright moonlight, so I didn't notice it when I left home just now.
Zhang Benmin walked lightly and walked to the window. He saw a familiar figure doing needlework among the erratic soybean oil lights in the house.
The sour smell of scent suddenly surged up, and the corners of my eyes became hot. I really wanted to rush over and hug my grandma and cry.
"Don't scare her." Zhang Benmin shook his head and turned around and walked into the main house.
Although I was very careful, I tripped up a small stool when I entered Xili.
There was a "click" sound.
Zhang Benmin felt nervous.
Then, the grandmother, who heard the movement, said with concern: "Gawa, I'm awake again."
Zhang Benmin hurried over, lifted the curtain, and shouted timidly: "Grandma."
"Oh." The kind old man with wrinkles on his face put down his needlework, sighed slightly, got up and took out a pancake from the mud tank in the corner of the wall, hesitated, and tore off a small piece, "I'm going to bed, eat less, and leave the remaining large pieces for tomorrow morning. Only when I'm full can I go to school."
Zhang Benmin took the pancake and chewed it in small mouth, "Well, grandma, don't worry about my schooling! It's midnight, just take a break. I just want you to live a hundred years old and enjoy a happy life in the future!"
"Good grandson, as long as you grow up safely." Grandma touched Zhang Benmin's head with one hand and wiped the corners of her eyes with the other, "I want to keep watching you and grow up."
"Don't worry, grandma, I will not only grow up well, but also respect you, but also avenge my father. Zheng Chengxi, the secretary of the brigade who killed the dog god, killed him, was he who killed my father!"
"No, don't, don't do stupid things!" Grandma held Zhang Benmin's hand tightly, "You can't have a few things, or I can't close my eyes even if I buried it in the soil!"
"Oh, oh, I know grandma, don't worry." Zhang Benmin hurriedly comforted, "I'll just talk, just talk."
Zhang Benmin said as he turned his head and saw the small yellow canvas schoolbag on the bench. He hurried over and took out his homework book and looked at the cover.
School: Lingdong Brigade Primary School
Grade: Grade 4
Name: Zhang Benmin
Fourth grade!
Oh, I know, it should be 1982 now.
When he was lying back on the bed, Zhang Benmin thought that it seemed that he would have to wait for a few years. At least after junior high school, at least after graduating from elementary school, he would think about his ideas carefully, slowly let go of his hands and feet to avenge and do something great. As for now, the one who is in a hurry is to get some small money and make three meals a day. The money he took from Zheng Chengxi's money box cannot be moved, and it is all a big 10 yuan bill, hidden under the bed and cannot be made public, and it will cause trouble if it is exposed. Therefore, he planned to take a few hooks after school tomorrow afternoon to catch old turtles in the evening, and then take it to the village. Oh, to be precise, it should be to get the commune and sell some money.
That night, Zhang Benmin thought a little too much, and he didn't fall asleep until his head became swollen.
However, he slept hard enough until dawn, and was woken up by his grandmother. After getting up, Zhang Benmin did nothing and took out the money ticket hidden under the bed to count. After counting, he frowned and stretched out his arms to look at his hands. Is it because his hands are small or what? The money is too small, only more than seven hundred yuan.
Seven hundred yuan?
Zhang Benmin thought about it. According to the current situation, the salary of only a few dozen yuan a month is equivalent to income of one or two years?
Well, that's OK, not a small amount!
Zhang Benmin put the money back to the bed, then ate most of the remaining pancakes, drank two bowls of porridge and water, and carried a small schoolbag to school.
The sun has emerged, and the chickens, ducks and geese from various families are starting to have fun, clamoring. The naughty dogs will rush towards the flock of chickens, which is so shocked that they flap their wings and fly around.
Walking out of the alley and turning onto the street, the brigade's radio speaker rang.
After a few old-fashioned singing, he switched. Zheng Chengxi shouted in the duck's voice: "Hey, hey, now, let's continue to issue notice. Today, the commune family planning office sent staff to our Lingdong Production Brigade to check the problem of women's airplane, check the fifth and sixth production teams in the morning, check the seventh production teams and the missed yesterday. Judging from the inspection yesterday, it was generally not bad, but some women comrades who were not in good condition in their cooperation with the work, shy and procrastinating, just couldn't open it.
The thighs, and some others, just hide, and didn't come at all! Tell you that you can't get rid of the matter of checking the environment! If you don't come now, you have to go to the commune health center yourself and pay out of your own pocket! So, you have to obey the arrangements of your superiors and ask you to check, you have to check! OK, I won't say anything bad anymore. Please prepare for each company and be sure to cooperate on time and actively so that you can cooperate with your superiors to complete this inspection task with quality and quantity! Next, I will emphasize it again, emphasize it again..."
Hearing this voice, Zhang Benmin instinctively hated her teeth and couldn't help but curse: "You are so energetic. You can get up early after working hard in the middle of the night, just like his mother's mourning!" After that, he spat fiercely.
"Who are you scolding?"
Suddenly a harsh voice came from behind. Zhang Benmin turned his head and saw that his enemies were so narrow. He was Zheng Chengxi's daughter, his deskmate Zheng Jinhua. She just walked to the alley with a small urine pot, ready to water the gourd vines at the door.
"No matter who I scolded, I didn't scold you anyway!" Zhang Benmin accelerated his pace. He didn't want to get close to this dirty girl.
"It's not okay to scold my father!"
"Who scolds your father? I'm too lazy to scold him!" Zhang Benmin ran away after saying that. Now, you can't show off your promise, you will suffer a big loss.
I ran far away and just stopped to take a breath, suddenly, a burst of curses came from an alley.
The captain of the brigade Liu Shengli, holding a pickaxe angrily, shouted with a beard and glaring: "Zheng Chengxi, look at me, I'm not going to be able to beat you, a goddamn!"
