Chapter 6 let's go to the sea

one My mother said that Xinlianzi Hutong is like a spoon, and our family lives near the bottom of the spoon, which is the place where the soup touches the lips when drinking.So my father taught me a lesson. With a sullen face and staring eyes, he said: Speak and listen!Don't make a sound when you drink the soup, Su Susu's is definitely not a girl's family.When scooping soup, the spoon should not knock the bowl loudly. I carefully held the spoon, and slowly poked it into the soup bowl. Dad lost his temper again: The little man has to wait for the adults to scoop it up before scooping it up. If you can't serve a dish, you should start first. He turned his face to his mother: You usually don't teach your children at all, so it's not okay.

I was very impatient, I just wanted to eat quickly and go to the door to watch Fang Decheng and Liu Ping play football, so I drank the soup and made a noise, touched the bowl with the soup, and started the food first.I was full, so I had to sit at the dining table, waiting to serve my dad a second bowl of rice.Dad said, you can't let the servants do everything. For a man of his age, when he was in his hometown, he still stood aside after eating, listening to his grandfather's lessons. I slipped away from the dining table while serving my father a good meal, and went to the desk by the window, only to hear my mother whisper to my father:

Don't control her so strictly, how old is the child?Last year, the lunatics in the Hui'an Pavilion scared her into such a serious illness, and she still suffers from timidity. When she heard you scolding her loudly, she kept silent. She is not such a child!Now I moved here, changed a place, forgot about the past, and went to school again, and finally put on some fat on my face Mom!Why do you bring up that strange incident again?You often say, which one is a lunatic, which one is a fool, which one is a liar, and which one is a thief, I can't tell the difference.Just like when I look up and see white clouds floating in the blue sky outside the window, I think of the article "Let's go to the sea" in the twenty-sixth lesson of the Chinese textbook:

Let's go to the sea! Let's go to the sea! on the blue sea, Hoisting white sails. golden sun, rose from the sea, It shines on the sea and shines on the bow of the ship. Let's go to the sea! Let's go to the sea! I can't tell the sky from the sea.Does the golden red sun rise from the blue sea?Or did it rise from the blue sky?But I like reading this lesson very much. I read it over and over again, as if lying on a boat or sleeping on a cloud.I can already memorize it now, and my mother often praises my father and Song Ma that I work hard and read well.What I like to read, of course I read it well, like the lessons in the last semester, I hope to forget them as soon as possible!

Dad went to take a nap, and the whole family was not allowed to disturb him, there was no sound at all in the house, but I heard a bang coming from the street wall!Boom!The sound, it must be that Fang Decheng and the others kicked the ball against the wall.I was thinking, how to talk to them and play with them when I go out?In school, we girls don't talk to boys, just ignore them, just stare at them, but now I really want to play football. Good mother, here she comes: Go out and tell those two wild children, don't play football in front of our house, your father is sleeping! With these words, it was all right, I ran out quickly, the braid was hooked on the nail of the door frame again, and the root of my hair was pulled out, it hurt to death!Why isn't this nail removed?By the way, it was nailed by my father, and a pair of shoe straps were hung on it. When my father went out and came home, he would put on a pair of shoes first.He taught me to do the same, but I think the dirt on my shoes should be cleaned better by stomping my feet.

Mama Song was feeding her younger sister porridge at the doorway, with mint leaves inserted in the hairpin on her head, and small carrot skins stuck to her temples, because she was suffering from headaches.When opening the street door, Mama Song asked me: Where are you going crazy? Mom told me to go out.I answered her with a good reason. A circular field outside the door, fully illuminated by the sun, looked like a full spoonful of soup.I stood in front of Fang Decheng in awe and said: Don't play football on the wall of our house, my father is sleeping! Fang Decheng picked up the ball from the ground and looked at me stupidly.

Diagonally opposite our house was an empty house with no one living in it, only a deaf old man who was watching the house, and often locked the street door to live with his daughter.Mama Song heard from nowhere that the house could never be rented out because it was haunted.After hearing this, my mother said to my father: Why are there so many haunted houses in Beijing?In the middle of the haunted house and another house, there is a clearing the size of a house, full of grass, and there is a low broken brick wall in front that I can walk over, and the grass grows taller than the wall .It is said that this open space used to be the stable of the haunted house, but it has collapsed a long time ago, and no one repaired it, so it became an empty grass field.

I looked at the dense and tall grass, next to it was the wall of a haunted house, and said to Fang Decheng and the others: I won't kick over there, because there is no one living in that room. As soon as the two of them heard this, they turned around and ran towards the opposite side.How happy it is to kick the ball to the wall and hit it back. This is a blind alley. Traders enter by the handle of the spoon, walk around the bottom of the spoon, and then have to go out the same way.At this time, the shaving picker came over, and the two iron clips were buzzing, but no one came out to shave his head.The sugar gong maker also came. His picks include jujube noodles, stamped people, hawthorn slices, and beads, all of which are my favorites, but if my mother doesn't give me money, what can I do!The old man who beat the sugar gong saw me standing in front of his pick, and said softly to me:

Go, go, go home and ask for money! Teaching people to ask for money, this old man is really bad!I thought to myself and walked away.I couldn't help walking to the opposite side, standing in front of the broken brick wall in the empty grass, to see if Fang Decheng and Liu Ping would ask me to play football.The ball rolled to my feet, I quickly picked it up and threw it to them.It rolled to a farther wall, and I also ran to pick it up for them.This time Liu Ping kicked the ball high and high, and he even boasted: "Look at how good I am playing!"But this time the ball fell from a high place into the tall grass.

Yingzi, don't you like picking up balls?Go pick it up for us now!Liu Ping said sweatingly. What's wrong?Immediately, I turned and stepped into the broken brick wall, stepping into the grass taller than me.I pushed the grass away with both hands and then remembered, where did the ball fall?How can I find it all at once?I couldn't help but look back at them; the two of them had already run to the picker who beat the sugar gong, and they were drinking the three big bottles of Yuquanshan soda with their necks up. I leaned forward and took two steps towards the haystack, Liu Ping was calling me: Watch out for shit under your feet, Lin Yingzi!

I was so scared that I stopped immediately and looked under my feet. Fortunately, there was nothing.I pushed the grass on the left and the grass on the right, but I couldn't find the ball.Going further in, I was almost at the innermost corner, and I touched something under my feet. I picked it up and saw that it was a pair of pliers, but it was useless. Opening the grass in front of me, I realized that the pliers landed on a copper plate, which was turned backwards.really weird!I couldn't help squatting down, and lifted the copper plate. Underneath was a neatly folded table rug with tassels and a very elegant silk dress.I quickly covered it again with a copper plate, my heart was pounding, and I was in a panic, as if someone had discovered that I had done something wrong. When I looked up, there was no one. The grass was blown forward by the wind and hit me. I can only see the blue sea far above the grass, no, the blue sky. I stood up and walked towards the exit, thinking, should I tell Liu Ping and them?When I came out, I saw that the two of them were playing glass balls on the ground again, and the old man who hit the sugar gong had also left.Liu Ping asked me without raising his head: Did you find it? No. Forget it if you can't find it, it's too dirty in there, dogs go in to shit, and people go in to pee. I leave them and go home.Song Mama was collecting clothes in the yard, when she saw me frown (the little carrot skin immediately fell off my temples!) and said: Look at the dirt covering this body and face!Just play football with those two wild boys like this? I didn't play football!I did not play football. Lie who!Song's mother curled her lips and said, and then brought up my braids. Your mother is famous for her tight hands when combing her hair. Look!It can also make you play away!You say you have enough shopping!Where is the hair rope? It was the nail on the door just now that hooked off.I argued, pointing to the nail hanging on the door.At this time, I looked down and saw that my shoes were also full of dirt, so I stomped on the brick floor a few times, and a lot of dirt fell down.As soon as I looked up, I saw my mother pointing at me through the glass window in the room. I tilted my head, wrinkled my nose, and smiled at my mother.When she sees me laughing like this, she will forgive me everything.
