The Pioneer of the Rebirth Era

Chapter 60 Catch the Cicada Monkey

The next day, after a year, Yang Dongxu saw his uncle joining the army again.

Wearing big lama jeans on the body, it is not hot, and wearing toad mirrors, it does feel like leading the trend of this era. If he carried a big tape recorder on his shoulders, he would really be a young man in the city.

Joining the army in this attire naturally attracted the attention of many people in the village, which made him feel more human. But the fact is that the Yang family had risen up at first, and a few people who were wondering if they were going to talk about the matchmaker relationship with Yang Dongxu, now they all hid away.

Just ask who would dare to push the girl into this pit of fire? Grandma Yang Dongxu selectively forgot about the fact that the eldest son was shot because she felt that her son had made a fool out of it, but the others remembered it very clearly. Many people who were jealous of the Yang family were waiting to see the joke.

"Brother, I'm not talking about you, how much money do you earn from farming at home? Do you know how much money I go in and out of the casino in a day? Speaking out scares you to death."

Seeing his brother-in-law bragging with his father so much, Yang Dongxu rubbed his forehead, feeling glad that he came back this time. If I wait until the New Year and come back, my uncle will really go to heaven.

"You're so capable, what about the money you earn? Did you buy a piece of clothing for our father and mother, or did you add other things to the family?" Hearing his brother bragging, he didn't like Yang's father at first, but his brother As a 'negative teaching material' run, or in front of his own son, finally couldn't bear it anymore.

"That's not a problem, I'll buy it for our parents tomorrow." The corners of Uncle Yang Dongxu's mouth twitched a few times, but besides being an adult now, he is also thick-skinned.

Can a bastard like him save money in his pocket? This is less reliable than a sow climbing a tree. Not to mention the money spent on "eye-opening" in the city, the few widows or young daughter-in-laws with a bad reputation in the town just squeezed the money out of his pockets, making his pockets paler than his face.

"Stop talking about those useless things, take off your obtrusive clothes and go to the ground. The watermelon in the field is growing well. Parents are not willing to hoe the beans. Now that there are a lot of ripe melons in the field, quickly pick them off and sell them. Otherwise, if it rains in a few days, it will be soaked in the ground and it will break." Regarding his younger brother, who already has the temper of the next generation, Father Yang obviously knows that he should listen to what he says as fart.

"It's not as good as how much money you can make by making those watermelons."

"Do you believe that I will beat you?" Father Yang stood up and stared at his younger brother very unkindly.

Joining the army hurriedly got up and turned his head to run away. Before he got married, his brother beat him up a lot. Although Grandma Yang Dongxu protected him even more after he got married, Father Yang didn't touch him a finger. But he was still a little scared of his brother.

After going to the back house and saying hello to grandparents, Yang Dongxu followed his parents and the whole family to grandpa's house. It was too late yesterday, so I must go to grandpa's house today.

I haven't seen my grandson for more than a year, and my grandparents are also panicking. Grandpa Yang Dongxu even asked how to get to Yanjing several times. If grandpa didn't stop him, he might have gone to Yanjing to find Yang Dongxu.

Since Yang Dongxu went to Yanjing, his little grandfather always felt that life was not smooth, and everything was not going well, and he missed his grandson very much.

Already eight years old, naturally I am embarrassed to let my little grandpa rest on my neck, and in addition to sweating every movement on a hot day, it is uncomfortable for the two of them to stick too close.

After a meal, Father Yang talked with Grandpa Yang Dongxu, while Yang Dongxu followed his grandpa to the pigsty. After the production team at Ranyoufang divided the land, my grandfather's family asked for an old sow.

So now the family has built a big pigsty, but rural people are not as particular about feeding pigs as later generations. They only feed two tons a day, one meal at noon, and one meal at night.

However, the weather in July is already hot. At noon, several buckets of water need to be taken from the well and poured into the pigsty to cool down the old sow and a few piglets.

Yang Dongxu's little grandfather didn't like farming, so raising pigs became his daily job. The first litter of piglets after being distributed to the old sows has been sold out, and the piglets in the pigsty now were born just a month ago.

Watching the little grandpa pouring water into the sink, seven or eight little pigs came running over, rubbing back and forth in the sink, which was very lively.

Yang Dongxu still praised his grandfather for raising pigs from the bottom of his heart. If he sticks to this path, he will be able to afford food and clothing in the future. Even if the scale is still a bit small, if we can get a bigger pig farm, then the family will be very rich in the next few decades.

After four or five o'clock in the afternoon, Yang Dongxu came back from his grandfather's house. After all, he just came back and wanted to spend more time with his parents, so he didn't stay at his grandfather's house to play. He promised to go and stay for a few days before returning.

It's just that I didn't stay at my grandfather's house. Apart from wanting to spend more time with my parents first, that uneasy uncle was also one of the main reasons.

But the next two days were very peaceful, Yang Dongxu slowly relaxed and started his leisurely life. Knowing that the monkey must be caught, the one caught last year was actually fed to the chicken, which filled Yang Dongxu with resentment.

After the heavy rain, in the ditch of the house, the sound of frogs was everywhere in the field. Take a fertilizer bag with a waterproof film inside, and stuff a sharp corner of the bottom of the bag into it to make a conical shape like a hat nest. The bag body forms a simple raincoat.

Wearing it on the head is not only rainproof, but also does not affect the movement, which is very convenient. There are no long rubber shoes now, and rural children basically don’t use them. With the shoes on their feet, they wear big pants and don’t even have to roll up the storage tubes. Then they start walking barefoot in the small woods around the village. rock.

My sister went to play Shizi. Shizi is one of the favorite games for rural children. Both men and women can play together. Each person goes to the field and picks up 10 pieces of mortar, bricks, or stones of suitable size, and the size of jujube is the best.

A few people piled up the stones and began to divide into teams, then held them in both hands and threw them with the back of their hands to catch them, and then threw the backs of their hands up to catch one of the falling stones.

The next step is to throw the received stones again, but at this time, the hand that threw the stones has to go down to pick up the stones that fell on the ground before. Some stones are very close to each other. When picking up stones with your hands, pick at least two at a time.

But as long as you pick it up, you must hold it in your hand, and then go to pick up the stones you just threw. The stones picked up are not missed in your own hands, and at the same time, the stones thrown just now are caught intact, and the other stones picked up during the picking process are not touched, it is considered complete.

If you just picked up 2 stones, then you now have 3 stones in your hand, repeat the above action of throwing up and catching it with the back of your hand, and then throwing up again.

If you just picked up three pebbles, then you have won by putting away one pebble, and repeat the above action until you finally pick up all the pebbles thrown by your team just now according to the regulations. If there is any foul in the process The other team fails, and the other team goes back and forth.

There is another way to play when you throw the back of your hand, you can pick up a few more stones in your hand, and then you can pick up one or more when you throw the pick up, as long as you have 3 or more stones in your hand That's fine.

However, when picking up stones in this way, all the stones that are thrown must be received in good order. If one is missed, it will be regarded as a failure and replaced by others.

There are also five stones to accumulate points, and another three stones to accumulate points. Yang Dongxu is definitely a master at playing this.

To be precise, Yang Dongxu was the king of children when he was young before his rebirth. Whether it is a boy's matchstick, a pickup made of paper (paper), or a slingshot, they are all skilled. Girls can pick up objects, skip rope, Shuttlecock kicking, he is slicker than girls. He even danced rubber bands with girls in the same class when he was in junior high school.

In short, when it comes to playing, he is extraordinarily caring, and he is extraordinarily talented in this area. But now it’s obviously impossible to play. The six-year-old sister’s small hands are obviously not good enough to play Shizi, so he can only wear a self-made raincoat and hold her little hand to pick out the cicada monkey.

There are no future novels, computer games, and radiation from mobile phones. Yang Dongxu's eyes are particularly good at this time. As he walked, he could see small holes the size of needle noses on the ground.

Pick it with your fingers, if the hole becomes bigger, there must be a cicada monkey inside, and it is still a big size cicada monkey. Such a hole is basically not deep, and you can see that the cicada monkey can pinch it out with just a stretch of the little finger.

There is also a small-sized Cicada Monkey Cave, which is only as thick as the fingers of a seven or eight-year-old child. It is most convenient to grasp it on a sunny day. You can find a tree under a tree and use a hoe to scrape off a layer of ground, and it doesn’t need to be too thick. About the thickness of a finger or two will do.

Then you can see that there are a lot of small holes under the scraped-off ground. These small holes are usually very deep, and the holes are small, so it is obviously impossible to dig them out by hand.

At this time, you need to take a bottle containing cans or other utensils to fill water in the side ditch, and then pour it into these small holes. After a while, the cicada monkey, which is the size of a fingernail, will crawl out by itself. .

But that thing is too small, and it’s not easy to clean, so Yang Dongxu looked like a pain in the ass when he had nothing to play with before. He made a pile of it as a game and took it home to feed the chickens. Now Yang Dongxu has no time to get it. Find more big sizes. The key point is to go back and fry the monkey.

Yang Dongxu, who was holding his younger sister's little hand, had not been looking for it for a long time, but he had already found more than a dozen of them, and threw them into the glass jar that used to hold canned food in his younger sister Dandan's arms. There was already a small half of the jar.

Shaking off the mud on his hands, he casually washed his hands with water from the big leaves of some small sycamore trees. Yang Dongxu picked a few bright red wild strawberries and stuffed them into his mouth. Well, it was the original recipe and the familiar taste. I also put a few pills in my mouth and continued to move forward.

It took half noon or so to fill up a can full of cicada monkeys, so I went home and cleaned them with a brush. Fried cicada monkeys at noon must taste great.

After returning home, a snake passed by, and the scared younger sister Dandan threw out the canned bottle in her hand. Fortunately, it was covered with a lid so that the monkey didn't spill it.

There are still more than 100 recommendation votes, so I will reach 500, brothers and sisters, go up. Ask for favorites, ask for recommendations.
