Chapter 20 [Return of the Past]
In 1970, the Dongfanghong-1 satellite was launched. Devouring Novel www...
In 1971, my country returned to the United Nations.
…
In 1978, Deng Xiaoping said the famous words: We hope to resolve the Taiwan issue through peaceful means, but we do not promise not to use force.
…
In the blink of an eye, the 1970s were crushed by the wheels of history. Life was about to enter the 1980s. In the blink of an eye, I was already running for three!
After the Mu Us Desert archeology, I had nothing to do, so I stayed with the archaeological team. Who knew, I would stay like this for 6 or 7 years. What was different from me was that Fang Cheng and Lin Ling were there.
Not long after the first archaeological visit, I returned to Beijing.
I just followed the archaeological team all over Shaanxi, and gradually became the number two person in the team. Professor Chen is knowledgeable, and I learned a lot from him, but the old professor is getting older and is not very hardworking.
I am actually in charge of the entire archaeological team. The others are just here to make a living, and their specialty is digging and brushing the soil!
After doing this for 6 or 7 years, I got tired of it! Only when I started doing this did I realize that archeology is really not a technical job. Whenever I encounter a tomb, I use the most laborious and clumsy method to dig slowly from top to bottom.
I also used a toothbrush to clean it layer by layer. Over the past few years, except for some improvements in the layout of the tomb and identification of cultural relics, my skill in dumping has not improved at all.
So two years ago, I resigned from Professor Chen, and despite his efforts to stay, I left the archaeological team and became a teacher in the county town, teaching history.
It’s really funny to say that we were originally made up of nothing, but first we became archaeologists, and then we became teachers to educate the next generation of our motherland. What kind of things are these!
After two or three years of teaching career, I almost lost my mind because of not teaching me. Not to mention the poor conditions of my life, the sameness made me bored! If I had had the temperament I had a few years ago, I would have given up on it long ago.
I've done it, but after all, I'm the one running for Sanzhang. I can't stop my laziness once it gets started, so let's just mess around!
So, days like this have continued until now.
"Teacher Zhang, we are looking for you!" A girl aged 14,5 pushed open the door and came in.
This little girl is the seventh daughter of Secretary Li's family. She couldn't even speak when the fat man left, but she has grown so big in the blink of an eye! She is now studying in the county town, in my class.
Suddenly the room went dark, and a huge figure blocked the door tightly, not allowing any light to escape.
When I saw this figure, my heart moved, and I moved my gaze upwards. I saw a strong man looking at me with a smile but not a smile - he was actually a fat man.
There was a burst of ecstasy in my heart. After we parted ways, we communicated with each other for the first two years. Later, we all drifted around and there was no contact. At this time, when I saw my old brother, I opened my mouth.
, there are obviously thousands of words to say, but not a single word can be said.
Jingshuo and the fat man had a bear hug. I finally regained my composure, patted his shoulder and said, "My soldiers were not in vain! Look at this strong guy!"
"That's right, brother, you don't know. This soldier is really not made by human beings. Not to mention the training, they also dig mountains and dig roads every day. They are as tired as dogs. Do you think they can be strong?" The fat man asked when he mentioned his days as a soldier.
He started to complain, it seems that he has been treated quite badly in the past few years!
"Creating a road through mountains? Honestly, did you become a soldier or was you captured as a civilian? I have heard from a few of my former buddies that when they were soldiers, they fought against Vietnam in the north and Taiwan in the south. You bastard?
Why do you do this!" I teased him.
The fat man waved his hands, as if he couldn't bear to look back on the past, and said: "I get angry when I mention this. When I returned to Beijing, I accidentally mentioned to my old man about our fight in northern Shaanxi. He didn't say anything on the spot.
What, he turned around and stuffed me into the company as an engineer. That’s what he said, don’t you love digging holes? I’ll make you dig as much as you can, which will make me angry!”
I was very happy when I heard this. Fatty and his father are really interesting. But I guess he was afraid that his son would die on the battlefield, so he didn't dare to send Fatty to the front line.
The fat man didn't feel depressed for long, and he became proud again and said: "But my engineering soldiers have not done anything in vain these past few years. When it comes to the skill of digging holes, I think I am second in the whole company, but no one dares to think that I am first."
"That's good, then it will all depend on your skills!"
The fat man was a little excited when he heard what I said, and said excitedly: "I'm just waiting for your words, otherwise, we brothers will go back to our old business!"
I was a little tempted when I heard that. I don’t know why. When I saw the fat man, I felt like I was back when I was 18 or 9 years old. I remembered the days when we were digging graves and digging caves together, and I felt something in my heart.
I couldn't calm down either. I wished I had a shovel in my hand and started digging wherever I found.
I opened my mouth and was about to agree, but suddenly I remembered that Secretary Li's seventh girl was still in the room. I glanced at her and saw that the girl was standing in the corner without saying anything. The fat man and I were so excited that we didn't notice.
I said to her: "Lanhua, is there anything else? Just go back if nothing happens!"
When I said this, the fat man noticed her and turned his head to stare at her.
Lan Hua's face turned red when the fat man looked at her, and then she pretended to be nonchalant and said to me: "Teacher Zhang, your clothes haven't been washed yet? I'll wash them for you!"
While she was talking to herself, she found a bucket of old clothes under my bed with familiarity, carried it and walked out.
I helplessly watched her disappear out the door, smiled bitterly, turned around and was about to discuss the next thing with the fat man, when I saw this kid looking at me with a smirk on his face.
The lustful and obscene expression on my face cannot be described in words. Just when I was feeling numb from looking at the fat man, he spoke.
"I said, Taozi, you are living a good life! You are living a small life, holding it with your hands, and you wouldn't change it for a god! This girl is only 14 or 5 years old, I said, why did you become a teacher?
It turns out it’s pointing here!”
I explained helplessly: "This is Xiaoqi from Secretary Li's family. She can't even walk when you leave! Just because of this, we can't do this!"
The fat man curled his lips and said, "You're so pretentious. I didn't even notice that other people's clothes were washed for you. What's going on? Do you want to admit it?"
Damn, you don’t admit it? I am more wronged than Dou E. I have never thought about it. When I went to see Li Zhishu, the little girl was still peeing on the kang. I can’t get rid of this idea.
.
He shook his head and told the truth to the fat man: "This girl is so interested in my brother! You also know that the children in this mountain mature precociously, and we were too showy in Liushu Village. With a little money, the whole village
Let's eat and drink together! The little girl is ignorant and thinks of me as a capable person! But I swear to ****, we never have that idea! You didn't see, there is no place to hide even a change of clothes, she even stuffed them under the bed
Brought to find..."
The fat man laughed at me after hearing this. After a long while, he gave me a "let's let you go" expression and said to me: "Taozi, what do you think? Do you want to do it or not?"
When I saw that the fat man no longer bothered me about this matter, I breathed a sigh of relief and said resolutely: "Do it, why don't you do it. We two brothers are not born to live a stable life, and I have taught you how to teach. Do it, do it resolutely, and we will do it tomorrow."
Let’s go! Let’s go back to Beijing first to find Fatty Jin, share the money between the three of us, and then buy some things. You don’t know that he is very successful in the Panjiayuan Antique Market.”
The fat man was so excited when he heard this that he almost jumped up: "Okay, that's it, I know that Taozi, you are not a peaceful person either!"
Having made up my mind, I breathed a sigh of relief, then remembered something and asked the fat man: "Didn't the last letter say that you were promoted to the army? Why did you suddenly sneak back without saying a word?"
Hearing my question, the fat man immediately seemed uncomfortable. He looked around and said, "Taozi, have you eaten?"
Have you eaten? I don’t know whether to laugh or cry. You ask me this at two or three o’clock in the afternoon?
"Don't change the subject. To be honest, are you violating the discipline of our People's Liberation Army and teasing a decent woman?"
"How can that be impossible? Who do you think my brother is?" The fat man yelled with a stick on his neck. After a while, he whispered: "When we opened the mountain, we dug a tomb, and there were many bright objects in it. Then
At that time, I haven't slept for three days. I was so exhausted that I felt a little dizzy. I thought we were fighting upside down..." The fat man's voice became lower and lower, and the last few words could not be heard at all.
I was stunned, looked at the fat man blankly, and asked: "You just followed someone else's obvious weapon, and then you caught someone who had returned from demobilization? Damn it, you can't even steal anything!"
The fat man blushed and said, "Brother, aren't you tired and fainting? We are fighting upside down because you know how to touch things and don't avoid people. I am fainting. I grabbed it and put it in my arms..."
Speechless... I couldn't bear to see the fat man's coquettishness, so he changed the subject and asked: "What do you want to do when you have money in the future?"
Upon hearing this, the fat man beamed with joy and said: "When you get rich, you can support me first, and then travel around. Where can I go for fun?"
It's understandable that he wants to travel around the mountains and rivers, but he was a division commander before liberation and enjoyed the treatment of a deputy municipal cadre, so why should he be used to support me?
I asked: "Does your old man have no pension?"
"Who said there isn't? It's only two thousand yuan!"
"Then I still need you to support me?"
The fat man waved his hand and said, "Why should the country support me? We can't afford to lose that!"
So heroic, I secretly admired it!
"What about you, what do you want to do when you have money?" This time the fat man asked me.
I said without thinking: "I want to demolish this dormitory in school and build a new one!"
"Hey!" The fat man was happy and said, "I can't tell you have a lot of affection for this school!"
"What a sentimental person?" I said bitterly, "I don't think it will take more than a day or two to demolish this broken house. It leaks rain in the summer and air leaks in the winter. The whole summer is warm and the winter is cool. You don't know what you are doing to my brother?"
!It’s hard to understand the hatred in my heart unless I dismantle it!”
