I Had a Home In 1982

   Chapter 73 73. Guest Group Four

  In the evening of that day, in the smoke from the cooking, the story of "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" rang on the island:

"Since we encountered a violent black sandstorm at noon, we chased white camels and broke into the ruins of this little-known town in the sand sea. I feel that this broken city is shrouded in a mysterious veil from the inside out. I can't see it. Is there any danger hidden under that veil..."

   Every household opens the door or directly lifts the dining table to the yard, and listens to the storytelling while eating.

  Some adults took pork offal soup in the morning and didn't drink it. They brought it back with some water and boiled it hard at night, and the family could share another bowl.

   is delicious.

   ran to the brigade committee after eating.

   The lights in the brigade committee were on.

The    team members didn't even see the electric lights. They were extremely new to the electric generator, and the children and boys rushed to step on the pedals of the generator.

   However, the pedals of this generator are not easy to step on, just like a bicycle without a seat, one has to stand on it and rely on the strength of the waist and abdomen to maintain balance.

   This is naturally very tiring, and spinning bikes are not so neat to lose weight.

   The wisdom of working people is infinite.

   Soon someone found that they could find someone to stand in front of them as a support point, with their hands on their shoulders just right.

  Wang Yi went out for a walk after eating, and someone called him from the brigade committee: "Mr. Wang, come in and play, everyone is here, come in and play together."

   He walked over and pushed the door in.

   Then he saw Wang Dongfeng standing on the machine, keeping his waist straight and abdomen, while Wang Dongyang was standing in front of him. He stretched out his hand and grabbed Wang Dongyang's shoulder hard, gasping for breath, with a grim face and all kinds of efforts.

  Wang Dongyang was very unhappy: "You push down and lightly press your hand, my shoulder hurts when you grab it."

   A group of people were watching, shouting with bright eyes, "Come on! Fengzi, come on!"

   "Quicker, faster, is it because of your kidney deficiency that you are so slow?"

   "Yozi, why don't you turn around, don't turn your back to him, he doesn't work hard, you are facing him so you can watch his movements to adjust your posture..."

   What you see and what you hear in your ears is too scary.

  Wang Yi subconsciously wanted to turn around and run.

   In particular, some people are still shouting: "Mr. Wang is here, Fengzi, come down, let Mr. Wang go up!"

  Wang Yi said in a panic, "What are you doing? Why are you making such a mess? No, Wang Dongyang, what are you doing? What are you doing standing in front of the peak?"

   "Let him hold on, or else it's just a kidney deficiency, and he won't be able to go up for a few minutes." Wang Dongyang said with a pouted mouth.

  Wang Dongfeng panted and said: "You have the face to talk about me? How long can you hold on?"

  Wang Yi waved his hand and said, "Stop, stop, what's the point of this? Since you feel tired from pedaling, why don't you build a shelf above the machine and put a seat cushion? That way, you won't get tired if you sit on the pedals?"

   "Like riding a bicycle?" Wang Dongxi asked.

  Wang Yi said: "Yes."

   Everyone suddenly realized: "Yes!"

  Wang Dongfeng wiped his sweat down, panting: "Still, Mr. Wang is still amazing, Mr. Wang, you are really different from studying, your brain is really good!"

   A teenager ran out: "I'll go to my grandfather and ask my grandfather to make a wooden shelf and put it on a bench surface, so that I can sit on it and pedal."

   "What a great idea." The group was full of praise, "Not only can this generate electricity, but also learn to ride a bicycle!"

   "Yes, I heard that people in the city now ride bicycles."

   "Impossible, there aren't many cars in the city, and now a permanent 28 bar costs 150 or 60 yuan, what kind of family can afford it?"

  The children saw that no one was pedaling the generator, so they rushed up to pedal.

  Children can make trouble, but they quickly start yelling at each other.

  Wang Xianghong came in with his hands behind his back, with a serious face: "What are you doing? Is making a noise like a joke? It's ridiculous!"

   "Come down, let me go up and try."

  The children came down stupidly, and Wang Xianghong went up and stepped on the pedal carefully, and it turned out to be quite good.

  Wang Dongxi immediately praised.

Wang Xianghong said proudly: "In the past, when we were in the martial arts team, we had a pistol mobile team - with a short gun in the waist, riding a bicycle under the foot, haunted the big island, let the devils and the reactionaries hear the wind... Oh mother! "

   He shrugged.

  Wang Yi hurried up to help him down, he sighed: "The years are not forgiving, after all, we are getting old."

  This time he came here to drive people away, and let the big guy go home and rest as soon as possible. After all, he has to go to work tomorrow.

  Wang Yi led the study in the morning and went to the fourth group at noon.

   Going to the fourth group is the same as going to the sea, you have to take a small outlying island on the boat first, and the fourth group is on this small outlying island.

  The so-called outlying island is literally understood as an island that leaves the land at sea. Compared with the main island where Haifu County is located in the inland, it is an outlying island. Compared with the main island, Tianya Island is an outlying island. Compared with Tianya Island, this small island is a small outlying island.

  The small outlying island is not big, about half the size of a standard football field. There are eleven or two houses scattered on it, and ten families live in total.

The captain took him to the island by boat and said with a smile: "Everyone calls our fourth group the third pole—the outer islands in Haifu County are the first pole, Tianya Island in the outer islands is the second pole, and Tianya Island is the third pole. The fourth group is the third pole."

  Wang Yi also smiled: "Don't say that, you are a sea view room, with sea views in all directions, this is a sea holiday villa, and people in the city can't envy it."

The captain    sighed: "Oh, don't be envious of them. If you are really envious, I'll change lives with them."

   They said and went home.

   The first family was a low old seaweed house, and an old man basked in the sun by the door.

The captain    greeted him: "Is the young master basking in the sun? This is Mr. Wang on our team, haven't you seen it yet?"

  The old man's face is clear and sallow, his hair is lush, but there is a bald scalp on the left side with a large scar, and even half of his left ear is missing.

   He slowly opened his eyes and glanced at Wang Yi, his face was cold and expressionless.

   Looking at the old man, Wang Yi felt a little scared. They had met a few times before, and every time they brought students to the beach to pick up big-leaf seaweed, they could see the old man on the seaside of the small outlying island and Tianya Island.

   The first impression of this old man is that of a stern, hard-to-talk old-fashioned old man. His indifference is different from that of Song Dayuan, the gangster leader at noon yesterday.

   One is pretending to be cool, the other is really cold.

  The old man looked at Wang Yi, and slowly stood up and stretched out the hand that was copied together: "Hello, Mr. Wang."

   has a very polite tone.

   "Hello, sir." Wang Yi quickly shook hands with him.

  The old man's right hand has only three fingers, and his little finger and ring finger are gone.

The captain    introduced with a smile: "Mr. Wang, don't look at the young master who doesn't smile and always keeps his face straight. In fact, others are good. My parents are inconvenient. He is the one who takes care of my children. He likes children."

   "And don't be afraid of the scars on the head of the young master and the broken fingers, all of which he fought in Goryeo..."

   "You participated in the Gaoli War?" Wang Yi suddenly remembered something!

  It was the first time he took Uncle Bo's boat to Tianya Island. Uncle Bo once mentioned that the Wang family had a veteran who fought against the American Empire in Goryeo, but he just mentioned it.

   At that time, he never thought that he would come to 82 years, so he didn't ask the old man carefully——

   Speaking of which, he never had a chance to learn more about the history of the Wang family since the 1980s.

   But he must understand this history, he must know how Tianya Island declined, in order to reverse the fate of the Wang family.

  The old man didn't answer his words, nodded at him and sat down again.

Captain    continued to walk with Wang Yi, and explained, "Mr. Wang, don't have any opinion on the young master. He has bad ears and is a little deaf, so he treats everyone like this and ignores him."

   "People outside rumored that he was a deserter, so he didn't dare to contact people, but it's not, he is, I don't understand him, he just doesn't like dealing with people."

   The four groups are all poor, but the captain's house has a yard, and the yard is full of tatters, exuding a strange smell mixed with meat and meat.

  The walls of his house are too appropriate.

  Wang Yi didn't go to the bedroom to look at it, only to see that there was only a table and a few stools of different heights in the main room.

  The stools have broken legs without exception, and they are repaired by themselves, and some even have four legs that are different in style!

  Huang Xiaohua was busy in the kitchen, and when she saw Wang Yi coming, she quickly greeted her: "Mr. Wang is here, my family is behind, and I have wronged the teacher. You sit down and drink some water."

   All five children are in the kitchen, cringing and looking out from behind the window door.

   The captain smiled and said: "It's really difficult at home, and I'm embarrassed to invite Teacher Wang as a guest, so it's really a blessing for Teacher Wang to come."

  Wang Yi said: "Brother, what are you talking about? You don't invite me to be a guest, in fact, I have to come by myself."

   He brought a net bag with gifts he prepared for the elderly and children.

A large package of milk powder, which he had unpacked and wrapped in a plastic bag, as well as various iconic canned meats with labels removed, a bucket of lard, a bag of rice, the remaining zongzi, five books, five pencil.

   He put down the net pocket, the couple looked terrified:

   "Mr. Wang, why did you take so many good things? Don't, don't, don't put it down, you'll take it back later."

   "You give food and ribs, Mr. Wang, you are so kind to my family, it is a great kindness, we can't take anything else from you, otherwise we are nothing?"

  Wang Yi said: "If you call me a teacher, then you have to treat me as a teacher. The teacher's words are authoritative, so don't provoke the authority of the teacher!"

Captain    said with a smirk: "How dare I dare to provoke you? But you can't, this is not good, there is no such thing, you are too kind to my family."

Wang Yi waved his hand and said, "Last time my sister-in-law went to give me a roll of old money. I mailed the old money to my classmate. My classmate liked it very much. In order to express his gratitude to him for learning that I was short of food in the countryside, he mailed me 200 yuan. And a lot of food stamps, speaking of it, I still have my sister-in-law's light!"

Hearing this, Huang Xiaohua was overjoyed and said, "Really? That's great. Oh, my family invited the teacher to come here not just for a meal. I asked you for some old money."

   "You wait, I'll get it!"
