Chapter 60: Cloud Shadow in March 1996

Cloud Shadow in March 1996

The early spring in Luhe Village is really leisurely.

What I think about every day is not what to eat in the morning, noon and evening, but also to do some questions and read some books. Except for daily strengthening the stone parts of the house and courtyard, and occasionally going to the clinic to practice medicine without a license, there is no complicated work.

In my spare time, I also take my son to the village, take a walk, accompany my sister and brother to patrol the village, take pictures with my camera, say hello and chat with the villagers, and lie in the yard to bask in the sun when the weather is good. The day is over.

After dinner in the evening, he sat on the leather rug by the fire and told his son a story, with the two big dogs snuggling beside him, not to mention the comfort.

I'm really happy, but I'm still very greedy. I always think, "It would be great if my parents could also come to this world", and I always think, "If good friends and even classmates are here too" Like, even if I already have a home here, I still can't bear them.

No one died in the village this month, and two new babies were added. These two little guys were lucky little guys who were born in a year of abundant supplies. A very lucky baby.

The snow didn't melt until the end of the month, and the temperature had risen significantly. The flat and wide Lu River began to thaw. The sound of the ice bursting on the river surface could often be heard, and the daring people in the village would go to the river in groups to catch fish. , The fish that have been hungry underwater for a winter are easily lured by the bait, and then taken away with a net.

This season's fish is thin and firewood is not tasty at all. In the eyes of the villagers of Luhe Village, it is still a rare delicacy. They are lucky enough not to be attacked by water monsters. Meat eaters are smiling.

My yard is big enough, and there is a lot of open space in the corner of the big garden in front of the house. I used my ability to squeeze out the earth and stone to make a big pit with a diameter of about five meters. Squeeze and fuse into a dense enamel, making a pond.

The water was brought by young people from the village in wooden buckets. After the pond was full, the fishermen in the village bought a few river fish and kept them in it, so that they could eat fish whenever they wanted.

Having a pond in the yard also reminds me of the fact that there is no running water in my house.

Up to now, my water has been picked home by myself. Although I am used to this kind of life, it is of course better to be able to improve it.

When I watched fish with Wang Jerry, I was thinking about the water tower. My ability allowed me to build a waterproof and airtight container with sand and stone. Then I should also be able to create a water tower that holds water and pipes that transmit water. Then using the water pressure to send water to the indoor faucet, I was even able to build the sewer system of the house on my own.

Wang Jerry had fun throwing steamed buns to feed the fish. I also had the idea of ​​building a water tower and a sewer in my heart. I even considered opening a swimming pool in my yard in summer. The yard is noticeably safer.

I made water tower construction my main goal for the next month.

The few days at the end of the month were relatively boring. As usual, I went to the darkroom to develop photos, and then recorded Wang Jerry to show it to his grandparents.

There are no souvenirs this month, but I brought some small ornaments that I made in my spare time. In the end, there is a large bag of household garbage. The garbage we cannot handle in this world is more than a month. This is also the improvement of the quality of life. evidence.

I think a lot every time Shimen opens the world and loses its color.

Most of the time I was drowning in moving things across and I couldn't wait to start a very different life.

But for very little time, I also hesitate and wait.

I'm familiar with the stone gate now, and understand that it won't close on its own against my will, that it won't freeze me in eternity even if I don't go through the stone gate, and I've even guessed that I won't go when the stone gate opens. The consequences of the opposite, I have a high probability of not taking any damage.

I didn't do a similar experiment, because I like both worlds very much. I can't live without my parents and friends, and I don't want to lose Wang Jerry and my two dogs in another world.

I lay in the frozen time thinking about my life, and the absolute stillness allows me to think slowly and unburdened without worrying about wasting time and missing out on anything.

I am still a baby face, my height is growing in the shuttle between two worlds, I don't know why I feel like I have stopped at the age of twelve, I am growing in height, but my appearance is more immature than my peers very many.

I don't have a beard around my mouth, and I don't change my voice like other people. Others already have leg hair and other hairs, but I don't. I envy Liang Jiangbo when he is troubled with pimples on his face. That's a sign of maturity.

Thank goodness I have been growing taller, I am now 1.73 meters taller than most of the boys in my class, and my life is completely different from before.

I don't know why I've always had some sort of worry in my heart.

That is, I can't really grow up, my appearance and body are just a kind of "adjustment" to my own condition, based on the fact that I am "12 years old", "well nourished", "free of parasites and symbiosis" It was carried out on the basis of conditions such as "biology", but my age has not changed, my physical conditions have not changed, I have actually maintained the state of twelve years old, and will continue to maintain it.

I didn't tell anyone what I was thinking, I just had this thought for no reason, and it made me realize that I might not be able to grow up, mature, age like a normal person.

That's why I lay in frozen time.

I thought about a lot of things, and sang in the silent world and shouted in the silence, venting my inner unease.

The stone gate is finally closed, and I also lie down in bed. Time will tell me whether I will grow up and age.

When I wake up in the morning, I make a hearty breakfast, then pick up the pole and swing it around the yard.

My parents watched me exercise while eating, and pointed at me, saying that I should watch some martial arts movies and learn some martial arts moves.

Since my "superpowers" have become stronger and stronger, I have rarely exercised as much as I used to. The people in Luhe Village have increased their strength with steel bars, and the two dogs have protected the entire village. I also slack off. Now Exercising with a pole is completely idle. The lethality of a small-haired long-barreled gun like me is far worse than that of throwing stones.

Out of thin sweat, I sat at the dining table and ate breakfast and told my dad about the idea of ​​having a toilet and bathroom at home.

Our family didn’t even have our own toilet. We had to go to the public toilet at the street corner to go to the toilet. We had to get a basin of hot water to wash our body. It was really hard.

My parents didn't object, they just said that they had adapted to the current life, so they didn't feel any inconvenience. If I insisted on covering it, they would also support it.

My dad meant that a small brick house in the southeast corner of the yard could be used as a bathroom, but the toilet was troublesome. Anyway, the public toilet was only five minutes away from my house, so it didn’t matter if it wasn’t repaired.

My idea was to push the house and rebuild it.

"Building a house is troublesome!" My dad shook his head when he heard it. He knew that my family had enough money to build a house, but instinctively didn't want to do such a troublesome thing.

"We now have more than 40,000 yuan, which is more than enough to hire someone to build a house," I advised my parents: "The construction in the spring will be completed in less than two months, and we will no longer suffer in the future."

"40,000 yuan to build a house . !?" My dad was taken aback: "Who can spend so much money on building a house?"

"We don't have to spend it all, anyway, it will have to be rebuilt sooner or later. We can't always live in this little broken house, can we? "

The house has just been built. Now we live very comfortably." My mother is also against extravagance. She said that even if I build a house, I have to wait until I graduate and work before building it.

How is this extravagance? I showed them the photo of the house across the world. I said that the stone houses in Luhe Village are more spacious and more beautiful than our house. Next month, I will build a water tower to get running water, and the house opposite will be luxurious soon. The life in that wild village is better than the home here? And my marriage is a matter of the year of the monkey and the month of the horse. It makes no sense that our whole family has been living in the old house like this before that.

"Let's talk again, yo! Little Jerry is growing taller again!" She made a fuss while pinching the photo, and my dad laughed and took a look at the photo, and asked me how Wang Jerry's appetite was dressed warmly, whether he had a headache or a fever. Comfortable, in a blink of an eye, the topic turned to eight feet away.

All in all, the house is going to be rebuilt, I want my dad to find the best construction team, and we will start construction in the spring.

"You kid!" My mother said that I will go out to study after the college entrance examination next year, and I won't be able to stay at home for too long anyway, so I'm spending money!

I don't think it's a waste of money.

It’s not that I don’t go out and don’t come back. Besides, my parents have to live at home after I leave. The house is cleaned up and they live comfortably. I can go to school without worry.

After going to school, Liang Jiangbo told me that my family wanted to build a new house.

"Building a house? Isn't that an adult's business? What are you mixing in?"

"It's still my idea!" I told him that this time my family will build a new house, I have an idea, and I plan to design it myself.

"Is it that complicated?" Liang Jiangbo laughed, he said that building a house is not the same, asking a construction team to spend how much to build a few rooms, which is the use of design.

"I want to build something practical. I don't want to build a row of 1,500 rooms like my dad said. There aren't many people living in those rooms at all. It's a waste."

Liang Jiangbo hugged me and said why you always So many weird ideas.

During recess, I told him that I was going to the bookstore after school to check the materials, and asked him if he would go.

"Of course I'll go, do I still need to ask where you're going?" Liang Jiangbo took it for granted, he is now my tablemate again, and we are conjoined twins.

At noon, I bought some food on the roadside and went to the Xinhua Bookstore by bicycle. I flipped through the books on architecture, and Liang Jiangbo read sports magazines with relish.

I found a lot of great information at noon. The design of some houses and courtyards opened my eyes. Not only my own yard can learn from it, but also a lot of inspiration on how to build a water tower in the opposite world.

In the afternoon self-study class, I spent half a class to finish my homework, and I drew a drawing with a notebook. My house and yard are about 200 square meters of rectangle, and the shape is regular, which is suitable for my design.

Referring to the materials copied down at noon, I drew a sketch of the new house in one afternoon and evening self-study.

The new house is a two-story building covering an area of ​​70 square meters with a basement. The first floor is the living room, kitchen, laundry room and boiler room. The second floor is the master bedroom, second bedroom, bathroom and a small living room. Fully wrapped balcony, on the other side of the small living room is a terrace, where you can dry clothes.

Then there is the yard. In addition to the coal storage hut, there is a small garden, a pergola and a pool for people to sit and rest.

On the street side is a separate room with a basement for storing goods, and that house is our new commissary.
