Today, an adult from the Huanghui Brigade of the Heijiao Commune in the east came to sell broken glass. Yesterday, this person came in advance to greet Wan Feng. He has a large quantity of broken glass.
Wan Feng told him to come around three in the afternoon, when school would be almost over.
Now he took this opportunity to wait for that person to come, so that he would be too busy to rent books and clean up glass after school.
"Teacher! If I go to the brigade clinic to get bandaged, I'm afraid I won't be able to attend this class."
Zhou Wen was very kind: "It's okay, this class is just a review of yesterday's content, not a new lesson."
"But I'm worried that the clinic will be overcrowded and it might even delay the next class."
Zhou Wen thought for a moment and said, "If you've wasted too much time, you don't have to come back. Just go home."
Rumor has it that Zhou Wen will soon replace Xiao Yongcheng as the fifth-grade head teacher, so he has the confidence to give Wan Feng a holiday.
“Thank you, teacher!”
Wan Feng carried his schoolbag like a good boy and walked out of the classroom with a swagger amid the envious gazes of his classmates.
After leaving the school and going down the mountain, Wan Feng came to the Supply and Marketing Cooperative of Jiangwei Brigade.
It was just past two o'clock at this time, and the person who delivered the broken glass obviously couldn't come yet.
There were few people in the cooperative. President Lu, who had glassy eyes, was leaning his elbows on the cement counter and chatting with someone.
The person he was talking to was a middle-aged man with a little oil on his body.
The Jiangwei Brigade has a 22-horsepower four-wheel tractor, and this man is obviously driving the tractor.
Don't look down on those who drove tractors in the countryside in the 1980s. They were much better than those who drive cars today.
Just because he was wearing white gloves in May, you would think he is not awesome?
In the countryside, few people wear gloves, not only in May and June, but even in December. This guy is wearing a pair of white-line gloves on his hands.
Wan Feng finally remembered who he was. He was Yang Hong, the father of his classmate Yang Xiu, who lived in Waqian Team.
Yang Hong drove a tractor in the brigade from beginning to end. Later, he went out on his own and bought a 28 tractor for transportation. His wife died of illness five years later, and he lived alone with his two children.
Wan Feng remembered that this guy would have an affair with a woman named Sun Yulian from the Zhou team in the future.
Sun Yulian is from the Wahou Team. She is now about the same age as Wan Feng's aunt and works as a farmer in the team. A few years later, she married a farmer from the Zhoujia Team of the Jiangwei Brigade.
There is a twenty-year age difference between them. How did they get together in the future?
It is obviously impossible to find the answer to how Yang Hong will get involved with Sun Yulian in the future.
There is an obvious generation gap between Wan Feng and Yang Hong, so of course they will have no intersection.
Wan Feng came to the cooperative to buy wine.
The road coming down from the school on the mountain was the only way to Xu Meilin's house. When he passed by Xu Meilin's house just now, he saw his grandfather and Xu Meilin's father entering Xu Meilin's house together.
Xu Meilin's father and Wan Feng's grandfather both work in the brigade orchard on the top of the mountain. They both like to drink and have similar tastes. It is obvious that they are going to have a drink when they get together at this time.
Wan Feng's grandfather and Xu Meilin's father both suffered from alcohol poisoning in the future, and eventually died of cerebral hemorrhage.
Although Wan Feng opposed them drinking, his opinion was worthless to the adults and was useless.
Since these two people got together to have a drink, Wan Feng felt it was only right for him to pay for the drinks.
The bottled wines in the cooperative are all some kind of Daqu or Baigan.
At that time, Moutai cost seven yuan a bottle, Wuliangye cost more than three yuan a bottle, ordinary liquor cost only fifty or sixty cents a bottle, and loose liquor cost three to four cents per ounce.
Wan Feng spent 45 cents to buy a bottle of local Yunshan liquor, which was the favorite of his grandfather and Xu Jingmin.
After buying the wine, Wan Feng walked out of the store and came to Xu Meilin's house.
When Zhu Xianyu saw his grandson coming with a bottle of wine, he and Xu Jingmin were overjoyed.
Wanfeng got the wine, but he was not responsible for what snacks they prepared to go with it. Even if they ate it dry, it was none of his business.
A piece of land was cleared on the street next to Xu Jingmin's haystack, and this was where Wan Feng piled up the broken glass.
Usually, the children who want to exchange books would bring the broken glass they collected here when they go to school at noon. Wan Feng would write it down in a notebook, and in the afternoon when school was over, these children would take away the books they wanted to read.
Xu Meilin's mother picked up some peanuts, and Wan Feng's grandfather and Xu Jingmin started drinking with the peanuts with great interest.
It was around three o'clock in the afternoon when Wan Feng came out of Xu Jingmin's house. A donkey cart turned into the street.
The car was loaded with broken glass, and it was the person from Huang Hui's team who was supposed to deliver the broken glass yesterday.
The broken glass from the donkey cart weighed over 550 kilograms. Wan Feng gave the man one yuan and seventy cents, and the man left with a smile on his face.
By the time Wan Feng finished collecting the glass, it was almost four o'clock and school had already been dismissed.
He gathered all the broken glass in the middle. With this donkey cart of broken glass, he could send another cart to the glass fiber factory in less than two days.
“Ahhh! Ahhhh!”
There was a cry in the distance.
Who is crying so loudly?
Wan Feng looked in the direction of the sound and unexpectedly saw Xu Meilin wiping her eyes with her hands and crying loudly coming from the direction of the school.
Who is bullying my future daughter-in-law?
Wan Feng threw down the shovel in his hand and walked towards Xu Meilin.
"Meilin! Who bullied you?"
"Wow! My brother got beaten up."
"Who hit him? Where?"
"It's Liu Shengguang, in the ravine ahead."
Wan Feng was not quite sure who Liu Shengguang was. It was impossible for him to call out the names of all three or four hundred people in the school.
"Take my brother to see it."
Xu Meilin took Wan Feng's hand and walked towards the school.
After leaving Shutun, go east and you will go up the hillside. There is an orchard on the left. There is a simple road leading to the top of the mountain next to the orchard. This road leads to the school.
The distance between Shutun and the school is about 500 meters. There is a deep ditch in the middle with a stone bridge on it.
In a ravine about fifty meters below the stone bridge, a dozen students gathered.
To Wan Feng's surprise, Yu Xiao, who had kicked him down in the afternoon, was also here.
Several students seemed to be fighting, and one of the people being beaten was Xu Bin.
Three students of the same age as Xu Bin were surrounding him and beating and kicking him.
One of them was yelling arrogantly while doing it: "I told you to hide, I told you to hide, are you still stubborn?"
Xu Bin held his head with both hands and kept dodging.
"Stop!" Wan Feng roared, lowering his head to Xu Meilin, "Stand here and don't move."
Xu Meilin nodded with tears in her eyes.
Wan Feng strode towards the crowd, but before he reached the crowd, Yu Xiao flashed and blocked Wan Feng's way.
