Chapter 321 Late May
After going to the outskirts of the county to pick up the car, and saying goodbye to Shen Feng, Xu Dahai and Sun Qiang went home directly.
……
Time flies and never stops for anyone.
In the blink of an eye, it was late September 1986.
Xu Juan, the sixth sister, was in her first year of high school in the county town. It was finally the weekend off. Early in the morning, Xu Dahai drove a tractor to pick her up.
da da da da ~
Bursts of black smoke floated out of the chimney, bumping and dusting.
The speed is much faster than the [-] big bars!
When he arrived at the gate of County No. [-] Middle School, there were already a lot of parents gathered here, much more than when he was a junior high school student in the countryside.
There was a large crowd of people, noisy and crowded.
There were bicycles, donkeys riding backwards, and mostly bullock carts. There was an old scalper that kept mooing. The owner of the cow was a bad guy wearing a straw hat and a vest, and he smiled at everyone around him with an embarrassed look on his face.
look around.
Xu Dahai could also see some tractors and motorcycles. The tractors were basically 12-horsepower small four-wheelers produced by Changchun Tractor Factory.
Although he may look small, he stands out among a group of bullock carts and bicycles, and he is very impressive.
There are many more motorcycle brands, such as Xingfu 250, Jialing, etc., as well as the Java350 motorcycle produced in Czechoslovakia in Eastern Europe.
In this era, many motorcycles, cars, radios, televisions, etc. were imported from Eastern Europe, with various brands.
However, as times change, these brands are basically no longer visible in later generations.
Waited for about half an hour.
bell bell~
As the school bell rang, countless students ran out of the teaching building. There were so many people in Wuyangwuyang.
Like a bird eager to leave its cage, almost every student had a smile on their face.
The elder brother on the right of Xu Dahai stood on tiptoe and took a deep puff of his cigarette:
"Don't they say it's very difficult to get into high school? There are quite a few students who get into it, so many people."
Waited a while longer.
Xu Juan walked out of the school gate with a big, tattered bag on her back, disheveled hair, but excitement in her eyes.
brush ~ brush ~
He looked to the left, but he couldn't find his fourth brother. He quickly turned his head and looked to the right, but he still didn't find his fourth brother.
The sun was hot, and Xu Juan walked slowly forward among the crowded students, stretching her neck and standing on tiptoes, her eyes darting back and forth quickly.
There were already big beads of sweat on his forehead.
"Juan'er!! Juan'er!!"
In fact, when Xu Juan just left the school, Xu Dahai saw her, and the distance between them was only ten meters.
However, Xu Juan clearly looked in his direction, but she only focused on the bicycle and subconsciously ignored the tractor.
She went further and further away.
Xu Dahai yelled about ten times, and the surroundings were so noisy that she couldn't hear her at all. There was nothing he could do, so Xu Dahai quickly got off the tractor and pushed through the crowd to chase her.
"Juan'er! Where are you going!"
"Oh, fourth brother, are you here? I didn't see you just now."
Xu Juan was tapped on the shoulder, and when she turned around, her face was filled with joy.
When she came to the tractor, she touched and looked at it in surprise:
"New tractor? Who did you borrow it from?"
"Silly girl, this tractor is a new one for our family!" Xu Dahai smiled as he unloaded his sister's big bag and tied it to the right side of the tractor's head.
"Really? Where did you buy it?"
"Changchun Tractor Factory, you haven't seen that the big yard of the tractor factory is full of tractors.
There are all kinds of horsepower, tracked and wheeled, there are so many large and small that you can’t even see them all at a glance. "
I just bought this tractor a few days ago. The 20-horsepower tractor is at home. It cost more than 6500 yuan in total.
Of course, there is also a 12-horsepower small four-wheeler, which is much cheaper, but it is small and has much less power, so I didn’t buy it.
Because Northeast China is an industrial base with developed heavy industry, this tractor is relatively cheap to buy.
If it is shipped to Guanli, the price will be more expensive due to freight, local profits and miscellaneous expenses.
Let Xu Juan sit on his left.
After slowly driving away from the crowded crowd, the tractor soon started running.
The wind was blowing, Xu Juan's hair was flying back, and the sweat on her forehead quickly disappeared.
"Fourth brother! The tractor is much faster than the bicycle!"
Xu Juan shouted happily, with an air of dignity and a clearer view from her seat.
The wind was blowing loudly, and it was impossible to hear what was being said without shouting. The sound was blown away by the wind. Xu Dahai also responded loudly:
"Hold on tight and don't fall! We'll be home soon!"
……
There were lots of potholes and bumps along the way.
The dirt road is really difficult to walk on. Xu Dahai misses the smooth asphalt roads in later generations. It is so refreshing to drive a tractor on the asphalt roads!
back home.
My mother has already prepared the meal and is feeding the ducks in the yard. She just chops the gray cabbage and other wild vegetables, mixes them with bran, and serves them to the ducks.
"Quack quack~"
The chubby ducks ate cutely, swallowing big mouthfuls with their flat mouths, and the tips of their buttocks swaying happily from side to side.
There are some ducks that are not honest and always step on the pot with their feet, so my mother pulls them out by the neck.
"You're back!? The food is ready just in time."
Hearing the sound of the tractor, the mother looked up and found that her son and daughter were back, and quickly came over.
"You've lost weight. Can't you afford food or drink at school??" My mother's eyes were filled with distress:
"The clothes are all dirty. It's okay. I'll wash them for you later."
Father Xu Houtian walked out of the house wearing a coat, holding half a tender eggplant in his left hand, half a glass of wine in his right hand, and pulling on his shoes.
"How many days are you going to have off this time?"
"Two days, school starts at noon the day after tomorrow."
"School starts at noon the day after tomorrow?" Father Xu Houtian's eyes widened:
"Our family doesn't live in the county town, so we have to leave the day after tomorrow?
It's almost dark when I get home today, and I have to leave again the morning after tomorrow. So I'll just stay at home all day tomorrow! "
My mother also had a look of reluctance on her face and muttered: "It wasn't like this when San'er was in high school. He could stay at home for two whole days."
"Our principal has changed, and many things have changed."
Xu Juan didn't want to talk about it anymore. In fact, she also wanted to stay at home for a few more days.
I feel very at ease, relaxed and enjoying myself at home.
Of course, it would be better if her mother didn't assign her various things to do.
"Mom, I'm hungry, let's eat!"
"Well, let's stir up the pot now." Mom said to Xu Dahai again:
"Xiaohai, please call Xiuxiu and Xiaotingzi over. There is no need to make another fire to cook. Let's eat together in this courtyard."
Xu Dahai got up and called Wang Xiuxiu and Xiao Tingzi. When they came back, grandma, second uncle and second aunt were also in the courtyard, but they had already eaten.
Stewed chicken, stewed fish, braised pork, stewed pork, stewed rabbit, various vegetarian dishes and dumplings stuffed with roe deer meat.
The meal was so rich. The second uncle smiled and said to Xu Juan who was eating a lot of food:
"Xiaojuan, you are back. Normally your parents would not be willing to eat so many vegetables! They eat pickles every day. So, study hard."
"Yeah, yes, yes."
Xu Juan took another large piece of braised pork. This fat braised pork was so fragrant that her eyes shone and her saliva almost flowed out.
