- Chapter 51 The way of naming these days
Come on, what happened today can be considered a cause and effect. There is a flashlight at home. It is not for food. It is expensive and no one will envy it. My eldest son came back from the army. The day before yesterday, he told everyone he met that everyone in the brigade didn’t know that the Luo Wen family gave birth to a good son. He went to high school and was an educated man, but later he went to the army for some reason.
So when Luo Cheng came back from the army, not only the people in the brigade knew about it, but they even boasted about the flashlight they brought back for a long time. It’s a high-end flashlight with an adjustment function. The ones at the police station in town are not as good as this. When used at night, it will be brighter than during the day.
Well, someone had an accident and needed a flashlight at night, so I immediately thought of Luo Wen’s house. Moreover, Luo Tuzi has a good relationship with Luo Wen, and his youngest son is not too young. If he didn’t have much work now, he could still earn some work points during the busy farming season.
Nowadays, some little cubs, both big and small, like to wander around outside if they can’t stay at home. If they see anything edible, they won’t let it go. If you see some holes or something, just dig along them regardless of whether there is anything in them. Rats, toads, snakes, rabbits and so on were all dug up.
The boy from the bald family found a hole in a corner today, so he dug it with a wooden stick for a long time. Good guy, he finally dug out a snake over one meter long. No matter whether it is poisonous or not, as long as it is handled cleanly, even if it is a venomous snake, the meat is not poisonous. But the premise is that you don’t get bitten before killing the venomous snake.
It was difficult to kill a snake that was more than one meter long with a small wooden stick. When the snake slipped away, the bald boy became anxious and grabbed the tail with his hands.
In autumn, snakes in the south are still active and react quickly. He turned around and took a bite. The boy was also a cruel person. When he was bitten, he grabbed the snake’s tail and threw it to the ground. The snake was killed. The area where it was bitten first became red and swollen, and then the person became dizzy.
If it hadn’t been discovered by someone and taken to the health station, where it had been bled and processed, there would be no need to worry about it now. You can mourn for a while and then bury them directly, and don’t expect to eat a banquet. Luo Tuzi’s family has the food for everyone to eat, so the kid won’t be hungry and look for food everywhere.
The dead snake is also at the health center now. It is indeed a rather venomous snake. If you are sending someone to the city, this snake belt is also the best. Depending on what kind of snake bites you can deal with immediately to see if there is any hope. If you don’t send it to the city, this snake will have more than a pound of meat. Don’t waste it. Just treat it as one life in exchange for more than a pound of rations.
“Okay, I’ll get the flashlight, you wait.”
“Hey, hurry up and ask your soldiers to help. It will take a lot of effort to push the cart to the city.”
Trolley trucks are generally used in brigades and are very practical in rural areas. For those who are too old and unable to walk, when they go to the hospital, they are pushed there on a trolley using only human power.
“Then soldier, just go there.”
Luo Wen agreed while going to get the flashlight, but Luo Bing was a little reluctant. It was not that he was unwilling to do his best. They are all acquaintances, so it’s okay to lend a hand to help. The most valuable thing these days is strength. But tonight we are cooking some meat at home, and there are no bugs to be found recently. It is serious pork.
But Luo Bing also knew that since his father agreed, he basically had no choice but to do it. So he immediately entered the room and drank the remaining wine in the wine glass on the table.
Father Luo Wen quickly took out the flashlight, but instead of giving it to Luo Sangen, he gave it to Luo Bing. It is safe to leave your own things in the hands of your own family.
“Follow Uncle Sangen and hurry up. Don’t delay on the way.”
“Lao Luo, you are not honest. If you have wine at home, you should treat me to a drink next time.”
“We don’t have any wine or food, so where can we get the wine? Let’s go quickly.”
Luo Sangen heard Luo Wen’s cover-up and didn’t point it out. He smelled the smell of alcohol when he spoke just now, and there was also the smell of alcohol on Bingzi’s mouth. He doesn’t know Luo Wen yet. If there isn’t much wine at home, his Luo Bing will definitely not be able to drink a sip of wine. It’s important to save people now. Go to the brigade tomorrow and talk to Rowan again.
An unexpected incident slightly dampened everyone’s joy. This world is really hard for people to live. Working hard every day is not living, it is just trying to live.
If there is a hole, dig it. If you dig a mouse, you will be happy for a day, and the mouse will even save food. Rats are better at finding food than humans, so if you dig up the rat’s stored food, even if it has been gnawed and touched by rats, you can cook it and still eat it. It is also normal to dig up snakes, especially in the fields near the grass mounds on the walkways and in the medium-sized holes next to the trees. The probability of digging snakes is not small. As for the holes near the corners, snakes are often dug there, because snakes like shade and like to dig holes and make nests in shaded places.
In later generations, when many old houses were demolished and new ones built, snakes were often dug up, and many of them were quite large. There are many venomous snakes, but very few are very venomous. Being bitten by a snake will not be life-threatening if discovered in time.
After everyone left, everyone went back to their rooms, each doing their own thing. Father Luo Wen picked up the cup Luo Bing drank from just now, put it in front of his nose and smelled it, cursing in his heart, that boy licked the cup after drinking.
His father took out the small glass of wine he had not finished drinking from the cupboard and started chatting with Luo Cheng.
Because what happened just now, the conversation naturally turned to the bald man. Baldy’s surname is also Luo, but he has been called by a nickname for decades and can’t even remember his real name. This bald man’s family had a poor life. When he was young, he had leprosy on his head. It didn’t go away, so he had his head shaved. That’s when he got this nickname. Because of this, it was difficult to find a wife, so in the end I found one who was born with a little bit of polio.
It is inconvenient for the bald daughter-in-law to work, but it does not affect the birth of children. However, this also leads to the fact that when the children are young, she is the only one earning work points in the family and is very poor. The old man in the family has not been able to withstand the famine in the past two years. He has three children, all boys. For a woman, having a boy is a real achievement.
Luo Sangen, who came just now, was the third oldest. When he chose his name, I heard that he spent two steamed buns to get it from a fortune teller.
It is said that the three roots of Luo lack wood, but there is a lot of water in the life. Ordinary wood is not enough and will be floated, so a root character is chosen. The roots grow in the soil and do not float easily.
“Dad, is there anything special about calling my two sisters those names?”
“What’s the point of their girl’s movie? It’s just your name. I hope you grow up and have a successful career, so you’re called Luo Cheng. That girl Luo Xiaoyu, it was raining lightly when she was born.”
“What about Luo Shishi? She’s quite elegant.”
“It’s just a coincidence that Shishi was born in June, during the plum rainy season, it rained every day. The room was still damp, everywhere was wet, and clothes were already difficult to dry. She peed a lot when she was a child, and she never got dry. Every day this one was wet, that one was wet too, and your grandma was tired of having her at that time. She was called Shishiwazi, and later when she got a little older and didn’t have a name, she was called Shishishi. When the brigade later registered her name, she was called Shishiweizi. It became Luo Shishi.”
My dear, Luo Cheng thought some master had chosen the names of his two sisters. They were both rain and poetry, quite literary and artistic. Forgetting Luo Xiaoyu’s name, I didn’t expect that the meaning behind Luo Shishi’s name came from wetness and wet clothes.
Thanks to the little book boy who doesn’t like books, I gave him a reward of 10,000 yuan. Although he said that he would not do the reward and update activity for the time being, and he owed a lot, but he still counted it in. Don’t be afraid of big debts.
In addition, there are rewards from Bu Bichen, Youwan 2, Book Friends with the last numbers 6402 and 5027. There are also many monthly tickets, and the brothers who recommend them are also grateful.
(The new book has entered the top ten in the category author list. I really appreciate everyone’s support. There are still two days left. I hope next Monday, that is, in the early morning after the weekend, everyone can continue to support me like this in the new week. Of course, there are Remember to give extra votes to those who have extra tickets, so they don’t fall through the cracks.)
Originally, including this chapter, I owed 42 chapters. Today, including the little book boy, I owe 44 chapters. I feel like I will say goodbye to two updates a day from now on.
