There are many types of buses on the street. There are Jing-1 trolleybuses developed by the Municipal Trolleybus Manufacturing and Distribution Factory, and Type 57 buses with domestic all-metal chassis developed by the Modu Bus Factory.
The accessories factory next to the third rolling mill produces shock-absorbing steel plates and some parts for the above two types of buses.
In addition to these relatively new passenger cars, there are also some old and outdated trams and buses with strange shapes.
Just like the big braided tram I saw with foreign characters sprayed on the carriage, it was imported from the Czech Republic, and the bus running opposite the tram was imported from Hungary. These buses have been used for many years, and many of them
The paint is peeling off in places.
Chen Jinnian talked for a long time, and the little girl agreed twice, obviously not interested in these things.
His hand was grabbed, and Chen Jinnian looked at his daughter.
Nannan shook her brother's arm with one hand, rubbed her legs again, and started to act bad.
Chen Jingnian had known that this would be the result, and he had to use material inducements and mental incentives to get his sister to walk to the city gate building.
"I'll carry you on my back. Do you deserve my points for your pea yellow?"
Chen Jinnian carried his sister on his back, held her legs, and walked forward effortlessly.
"Give you all."
It was a little dark inside the city gate, and the temperature was a little lower than outside. The sound that Nannan made from the mask was not as loud as the wind blowing through the door. She hugged her brother's neck tightly and quietly closed her eyes.
"Little clever devil."
Chen Jinnian pushed the back of his head against his sister's forehead, and his eyes suddenly became empty, filled with endless golden and green colors in the blink of an eye.
Outside Dongzhimen, Wudaokou.
There are many roads here, including not only railways, but also several highways connecting the city and suburbs.
Walking out of the shadow of the city gate, we crossed the railroad crossing and the moat.
Dirt roads, carriages, drainage ditches, trees, fields, and weeds, Chen Jingnian felt as if his eyes had been filtered and beautified. The vivid scene suddenly made him forget about the thick gray city walls and crowded and noisy houses.
"Brother, I heard the grasshopper chirping."
"Brother, Mala is making daddy."
"Brother, Banggeng said that after it rains, you can catch human blood-sucking bastards in the ditches on the roadside."
"That's called a horseshoe crab. It doesn't suck blood. There are others that look similar to it in the sea. Some are as big as pot lids. Their blood is blue and more expensive than gold."
Chen Jinnian put his sister down next to a tree and wrote the word "horseshoe crab" in her sister's hand.
Nannan nodded, turned around and climbed onto Chen Jingnian's back.
She is weak and allergic to pollen. She can't run around and play outside like Bangge and Xiaodang. She spends more time reading and writing at home. Although she knows a lot of words and memorizes a lot of ancient poems, her childhood was...
The most precious piece is missing.
"Brother, make me a willow whistle."
"The willow branches are old now, and they sound nice when blown in the spring when they are young."
"Brother, you can make me another grasshopper cage. I want to catch a grasshopper with a knife."
"The one with the knife is a female grasshopper, and she can't scream. Why catch her?"
"Here, Xiaobanggan, his grasshopper's chirping is too unpleasant."
Chen Jingnian silently tipped this scheming little girl upwards and put the male and female grasshoppers together. You really are yours.
Walking along the bank of the moat is safe and effortless.
The people on the other side of the road were vehicles carrying large animals, and cars passed by from time to time. The dust was flying in the air, which was very unfriendly to the little girl.
"Qiaoer!"
The little girl suddenly grabbed her brother's neck, pointed at a tree and shouted softly.
"Strangle me to death, and you won't be able to eat anything."
As Chen Jinnian spoke, he bent down and put down his sister, making a silent gesture.
Nannan nodded knowingly, Mao'er bent over and watched her brother slip forward.
Chen Jingnian's movements are agile, swift and silent.
The wooden handle is coated with starch and is tied with a double-layered tourniquet. There is a numb ball in the small leather pocket at the end.
A pair of ten slender fingers, like a woman's hand, fully drew the maroon bow and aimed at the sparrows on the tree.
"Whoosh!"
As a leaf fell, it was a sparrow that had fattened itself and wanted to spend the winter well.
The other sparrows immediately flew away, chirping and leaving behind a few piles of bird droppings.
"It hit, it hit."
Nannan had been holding her breath, and only then did she exhale loudly.
"Stop shouting, it's time to cough again later."
Chen Jingnian broke off a dead branch from the side, took his sister's hand and walked towards the spot where the prey fell.
The dead branches knocked on the weeds up to the knees, startling countless grasshoppers and flying insects. Nannan raised her little hand like a gun and fired "piu, piu" repeatedly.
"Brother, this little pepper is redder than the one in my notebook."
"Brother, Dayan Die'er."
"Brother, find some branches for me to stick some spider webs on. I want to stick some ants on myself."
"Brother, I don't want to carry my bird to death."
Chen Jingnian raised his hand and hugged a dragonfly, holding its wings between his wings and handing it to the little guy who finally said the main meaning.
He took out the water bottle and the handkerchief with snacks from his satchel and put them into his sister's backpack, then picked up a few handfuls of weeds and put them in the bottom of his pocket.
The girl who was playing with the dragonfly finally stopped talking. Chen Jinnian took her to the foot of the tree and found the unlucky sparrow from the grass nest.
Under the influence of external force, the sparrow's Tianling Cap disappeared, its two wings were folded inwards unnaturally, and it lay on the ground with its beak crooked and its eyes slanted.
Chen Jingnian tightened his nose, put away the loot, and continued walking eastward with his sister, tracking the birds that slipped through the net.
Stop and go, no shots missed.
When his daughter got tired of playing with the dragonflies in his hand, Chen Jingnian picked a handful of dogtail grass and made a little rabbit and a puppy for her. At this time, there were seven more sparrows in his bag, and the rest fled to
Across the river.
Raising his head and glancing at the sun, Chen Jingnian put away his bow and let his daughter drink some water and eat the piece of pea yellow. He took out his small shovel and dug up wild vegetables.
In the place I passed just now, I have already stepped on it and found a lot of portulaca fern and mother-in-law fern.
Purslane is a thing that clears away heat and detoxifies. After it is blanched and sprinkled with some salt, it becomes a cold dish.
The usefulness of Bobaoding is even greater. It not only contains vitamins, linoleic acid and trace elements, but it is also antibacterial and enhances immunity.
In later generations, some aunts almost finished the endangered plants.
Nowadays, these wild vegetables are a bit old, so you can only pick some young leaves and use them as a side dish for batter.
If it's spring, Po Po Ding can be dipped in sauce and eaten raw.
I picked up a handful of tender wild vegetables and dug a bunch of wormwood.
The wild vegetables were placed in the little basket on the girl's back. Chen Jinnian carried the wormwood and led his sister back.
When I got home, I saw a hand-operated disabled vehicle parked under the east wall of the courtyard entrance.
"Godfather is back."
Nannan cheered and ran hurriedly into the yard.
Chen Jinnian picked up a few leaves that fell from the basket on his back and stepped across the threshold.
Watching his sister run into the main house in the front yard, Chen Jingnian put the shovel back into the barn, dusted off the grass clippings and dust on his body, and picked off a few cocklebur sticks on his leggings before walking towards the main house.
"...My brother is very accurate in hitting house sparrows. Every time he hits a bird, he is accurate. I asked him to put it in his bag, so that it can't gather dust..."
The little girl in the room was showing off her skills, and Chen Jingnian paused before pushing the door open and entering.
"Fifth uncle."
Chen Jinnian said as he took off his satchel and put it aside.
"Stubborn species."
Li Xianwen turned sideways and faced the door, his fair and beautiful left face facing his daughter, full of smiles, but the face facing Chen Jinnian showed a completely different scene, one of a ferocious one that chose people to eat.
Chen Jingnian smiled habitually and joked: "You keep shaving like this. My godfather and godmother didn't say you were more than ten years younger."
"Don't mess around with me. I have no time to talk to you."
Li Xianwen moved his left leg, which was longer than his right leg. The knee of his left leg pushed against two handcuffs made from bicycle straps.
Chen Jingnian stepped forward and moved the wooden board on the ground to one side and stood it up. On the wooden board was tied a piece of polished wolf skin, and underneath was nailed a layer of bicycle outer leather. Counting the two handcuffs, these two were Li Xianwen's
A tool for daily walking.
"Put the birds there. I'll feed them with pepper water after I finish cleaning them, and keep them for my daughter to bake. You can take back the vegetables your godmother brought for you and your daughter, so you don't have to cook at night.
"
"You're tired, let me feed the birds. I'll add more salt and save them for when my sister comes back. Otherwise, there won't be any meat at all."
Chen Jinnian replied happily, looking at Li Xianwen who didn't even bother to pay attention to him, he turned around and pushed the door open with his lunch box in hand.
"Fried garlic sprouts with oil residue, and half a piece of boiled fish. I'm afraid my godfather and godmother are trying to sell the pot."
Chen Jingnian returned home with two large aluminum lunch boxes. He looked at one box filled with a box full of boiled fish, and the other box filled with garlic sprouts and half of the rice, and sighed.
For this long-decided marriage, Zhao Changshun and Ge Yuqin basically spent all their money.
In this era where people dare to come to propose marriage with two or three kilograms of candy, not counting the support of father Chen Jingsheng when he was ill, the gift of fifty yuan alone can be called a sky-high price.
Recall that all the expenses for my sister’s wedding do not need to be totaled. My godfather and godmother must have been in debt.
I remembered that when Zhao Jianjun dragged him to dinner that day, he kept giving him relief pills and said, "Don't worry, brother, brother, I have joined the work, our family is now the whole family making money."
Zhao Changshun also said similar things before.
At that time, Chen Jinnian's mother, Li Yulan, was just over seven years old. According to Zhao Changshun and Ge Yuqin's intention, they wanted to take him and their daughter over.
Chen Jingnian disagreed, and finally Li Xianwen also said, "When the ax was seriously ill, the second sister-in-law asked someone to figure it out. The ax is the life of the well and spring water. If eight families dig it and drink from it, it will be nourished, and it will help calmness and not move."
At this point, Zhao Changshun and his wife did not persist. This chapter has been completed!
