Chapter 31
Because of grandpa's injustice, Lu Li was very uninterested and walked out of the courtyard. It had just passed the National Day and the weather was getting colder. Adults either participated in sports or were exercised. The children followed the fun and watched the fun. There was no one. He walked to the gate of the No. 2 courtyard and suddenly stopped. A scene that was staged in the courtyard before January came to my mind clearly. Unconsciously, he pushed open the half-closed door and walked into the courtyard.
The He family had been deported from their hometowns, and the yard was vacant. The wings on both sides of the east and west became storage places for house search items in the street. The seal was hung on the door, and the paste had long dried up. The whole seal swayed in the wind, leaving only a corner stuck on the door. Lu Li's curiosity was unstoppable. Children in Wang Family Hutong had inexplicable fear of the No. 2 courtyard: It is said that the old man of the He family had the habit of eating children. If anyone passed by their doorstep, he caught him and took them home immediately. He ate them to eat them! So the children did not dare to stay here. Every time they passed by here, they would speed up their pace, like a flash of time, and did not give the people inside the arrest. But after seeing Old Man He was being snatched and searched, Lu Li felt curious. He was not scary. Why did he say he ate children?
I thought to myself, and pushed open the door of the east wing room. This is the residence of Old Man He and his wife. It is a two-in-one house. There are also fire kangs, kang mats and bedding inside, revealing the chalk-painted brick layer; on the wall to the north, there was originally a bedside table, but now the cabinet is naturally gone, revealing the same brick layer, but because it is blocked by the cabinet all year round, it looks whiter.
A fire kang occupied most of the house. In the other space, several square tables were placed, which were filled with various items from the house search, including clocks, pendants, various table lamps of different shapes, and various porcelains. Others were short and looked at them one by one with their toes, and then put them back in place. Just as they were about to leave, they suddenly found something under the square table.
I crawled under the table and looked up. It was wrapped in black cloth. I stuck it under the table with adhesive cream, pulled it off hard, put it on the kang and opened it to see. Most of them didn't know how to use it, and I didn't know how to use it. There were only rings and earrings, which he had seen in his aunt's hands. Of course, since the special period, such things were taken off by her early.
Lu Li picked up a ring casually and played with this kind of thing for the first time. It was quite heavy, and it was golden yellow all over. There was a small piece of green thing inlaid on it. I don’t know what it was? I wore it on my aunt’s hand. The ring was very thick, and the child’s fingers could not be worn at all. Moreover, this thing never attracted the child. After playing for a while, I put it back and picked up a long string of white beads, put it on my fingers and turned it up. By accident, the beads flew out of my hand and hit the wall. With a slight sound, the metal wire in the middle broke and the beads were spread all over the floor! Lu Li was a little scared, so he picked up the beads and put them in his pocket. This thing was round and rolling, and it was quite good to play with it as a pinball. The others were packed up, and they stuck under the table as they were, and they went out.
After staying in the yard for a while, no one came at all. Lu Li felt relieved and pushed open the door of the west wing. Now he was happy: There are so many villain books!
The west wing room was originally He Lian's room, and it was also a two-story layout. Unlike his grandparents' bedroom, there was no kang here, and the place where a bed should have been placed has been vacant. Now it has been empty. There are several large boxes in the room, and two rows of bookshelves on one side against the wall. The books on it are placed in extremely messy. Lu Li doesn't like these things, and he focuses on the boxes all over the floor - all piles of books are covered with villains!
Just pick up a book, "Water Margin", you can't recognize the word "风" in the middle, but it doesn't matter, just enjoy the small picture inside. The little man's book is also placed at the door of the water shop not far from the school. It costs two cents to read, but Lu Li looked down on it. He just reads the villain inside. A little man's book is finished in a short time. If you can read it with your temperament, you can read more than ten or twenty books at noon a day. How can you spend so much money at home for a child?
It's all for free now, so you can read it casually, which will naturally make the children excited! Look carefully, "Water Margin", "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", "Dream of the Red Chamber", "Mr. Dongguo", "Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio", "Journey to the West", "Biography of Yue Fei", "The Emperor and Empress Martial Work Team", "Lei Feng", "Chicken Feather Letter", there are so many that he doesn't know which book to read! (Note 1)
They each chose a few books, hid them under their clothes, went out secretly, and ran home.
When I took it home, I carefully looked through the little man books I got back. They were two books from the Three Kingdoms, one from Lei Feng, one from Mr. Dong Guo, and one from the Jimao Letter. Lu Li still didn't read the words inside, but only looked at the pictures. The reading speed was amazing. It took less than half an hour to browse them all. He himself felt strange: Didn't he get back a lot of books? Why did he finish reading them all so quickly? Look at it's still bright, and then change it!
After saying a word, in less than three days, Lu Li read all the books treasured in the west wing! After reading them all, he was a little stunned: I read it too fast, now, I have no one to read it, right?
There was no choice but to pick up the little man's book I had read and read it again. However, this time was different from the last time. He began to silently read the words in it and the white mouth of the people in the painting - looking at white mouth is a knowledge, especially for children, because the two white mouths in the painting will not be divided into order before and after. When reading, they often read inversely, and then start over when they feel that it is wrong.
The first one he read was "Water Margin", with a total of twenty-six volumes, the first one was "Nine-patterned Dragon Shijin"; the twenty-sixth one was "The Heroes Ranking in Liangshanbo". He took it one by one and read it. Lu Li was surprised to find that there was such a mysterious and fantastic world in the book of the villain! "What is the birthday gift? Did Wu Yong, Gongsun Sheng, Zhao Gai and others be caught?" After reading "The Birthday Gift", this was the first question that came to his mind.
There was doubt in my heart, so I naturally had to look for the subsequent plot. When I saw Chao Gai and the others venturing safely with the help of Song Jiang, the child's heart finally calmed down and gave a long breath of grandeur for the heroes in the book!
When reading "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", what we pursue is not only this, but the characters in the story, such as "Lu, "Zhao, "San, "Zhao, "San, "Zhao, "Zhao, "Zhao, "Zhao, "Zhao, "Zhao, "Zhao, "Zhao, "Zhao, "Zhao, "Zhao, "Zhao, "Zhao, "Zhao, "Zhao, "Zhao, "Zhao, "Zhao, "Zhao, "Zhao, "Zhao, "Zhao, "Zhao, "Zhao, "Zhao, "Zhao, "Zhao, "Zhao, "Zhao, "Zhao, "Zhao, "Zhao, "Zhao, "Zhao, "Zhao, "Zhao, "Zhao, "Zhao, "Zhao, "Zhao, "Zhao,"" all made him lose his love countless times, and only hoped to let these people live forever, and no one died in the battlefield! "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" is followed by "Journey to the West", so there is no need to mention this; among the four classic series of villains, the only thing he didn't read is "Dream of the Red Chamber", what is the messy thing in it? It doesn't work, it's not good at all!
Note 1: Little Man Book. Many people know that collecting Little Man Books has become a fashion now, not only because of its historical value, but also because of its artistic value. In fact, the versions of Little Man Books of the four great classics published before the special period are rigorous in drawing, dialogue, text, scripts and other links and the depth of literary and artistic attainments, which are not something that young people today can imagine.
Taking the "Water Margin" series of the four great classics as an example, the "verbal white" in the text is written entirely in small regular script. Even if you don't read the story, just reading Mr. Dong Liyan's calligraphy is a great process of enjoyment.
