    "Ah-choo! Ah-choo-!" Su Haolin sneezed twice, stretching out his hand to pull up the quilt and wrap it tightly.  The rustling wind was blowing in through the crack of the broken window, and it was bone-chillingly cold. It seemed that tomorrow I had to find a way to get another quilt, and then go to the town to find a glass shop to fix the window.  It's better to buy some more coal to light a stove in this room. There are no fireworks, and every corner of this room is full of dead air.

    "Big Zhuang! Big Zhuang?!" Someone shouted outside, and Su Haolin could tell that it was Qi Jianjun's voice, so he hurriedly crawled out of the bed to get his jacket on the boat, and opened the door to go out while agreeing.

    "Uncle, what's the matter?" Su Haolin said, pulling out the latch of the door.

    "I told your aunt that you only have one quilt here. I'm afraid you won't be able to sleep in this cold weather, so your aunt asked me to bring you a bed." Qi Jianjun held a quilt in his arms to block it.  half face.

    Su Haolin was very grateful, quickly took the quilt and said, "Thank you Uncle, and thank you Aunt."

    Qi Jianjun patted Su Haolin's strong shoulder with a smile, and said: "You have been away for a few years, and you have become more polite when you come back. Thank you so much, are you annoying?"

    Su Haolin smiled and answered.

    "Okay, let's go in quickly, it's cold outside. I'm going back." Qi Jianjun said, pulled the hood of his coat, turned around and left.  "

    "Thank you uncle!" Su Haolin shouted again, and turned back after watching his back disappear into the night.

    Early the next morning, Su Haolin got up, washed his face with cold water, and went out directly.  He first went to his second uncle's house to meet his grandma, then borrowed his second uncle's bicycle to go to the market, went to a glass shop and asked someone to measure the size of the windows at home; he went to buy a mobile phone and apply for a mobile phone card;  Then I went to the small store to buy the necessary daily necessities.  Seeing that it was almost noon, when I came back, I passed by a delicatessen and bought a piece of pork head and pig ears, and bought ten meat buns just out of the cage.  When I came back, I put my own things back first. I saved the pig ears and gave Qi Jianjun a quilt as a thank you. I only carried the pig head meat and meat buns to my second uncle Su Changhe's house. Just as I put down the bicycle, I heard someone talking in the house.

    "Mother Xiaoyu, don't worry. Your Sangyu is a good child. It is a blessing that you have such a daughter in your previous life. Look at who praises her in our area? She is so good at studying, and she is so good at the exam.  I have not yet graduated from the university, so I sent money to my family. After graduation and work, I will be able to buy a house in a big city, and I will take you and Jianjun there to live a good life!"

    "Hi! She is a girl, and she will marry someone to live with her in the future. Our husband and wife can't attract people's dislike."

    "What's wrong with the girl? This promising girl is a hundred times stronger than the worthless boys? Just look at our family's big and strong, he is a boy, he has grown so big for nothing! I thought he would go out for a few years  You can also look like a human beingyou are blind again! Just come back empty-handed, without even a decent nest, I am so worried!" Although Grandma Su is old, she is in good health and can speak well.  extremely loud.  Su Haolin frowned and didn't want to enter the house after hearing this in the yard.

    "Auntie, don't say that! The child has been away for a few years, and he doesn't know what he has suffered and suffered. He has finally come back, you have to give him a smile, anyway, this is his home!"

    "Mother Sangyu, what you said is true, what you said is true!"

    "Look at my family, Sang Yu, who won't come back for the Chinese New Year! She said she was going to help a third-year kid with homework! I don't know her yet, and she must be thinking about earning money to pay tuition by herself! This kid is really Sigh!  "Xu Lingzhi finally let out a long sigh.

    "Look at you, why did you shed tears when you said it well? Sangyu is also afraid that you and Jianjun will be troubled. There are two old people above you. How much trouble can our peasant family get in a year of hard work? Child  Isn't it your blessing to be able to earn money and go to school? It's also convenient now. If you miss her, you can call her. What can't you say on the phone? You're just too small-minded."

    Su Haolin didn't want to listen anymore, and when he turned to leave, his second aunt Chen Lan came in from outside with a bundle of cotton firewood. Chen Lan saw the plastic bag in Su Haolin's hand, immediately smiled and asked enthusiastically:  "Huh? Da Zhuang, what are you doing standing here in such a cold day? Come in, your grandma has been talking about you all morning."

    Su Haolin had no choice but to enter the door.  Xu Lingzhi turned around and smiled: "Hey, Da Zhuang is back? Did you buy something good for your grandma?"

    "Auntie is here. When I came back, I happened to pass by Chen's deli, so I bought something casually." Su Haolin said, put the things in his hand on the table, glanced at Grandma Su who was on the kang in the inner room, and said  : "Eat while it's hot, I'm leaving." After finishing speaking, she walked away without waiting for Grandma Su to say anything.

      The days in the twelfth lunar month go by so fast, Su Haolin hastily tidied up his dilapidated small yard to look like a home, and then ran to the city to buy a second-hand motorcycle and came back.  Seven.  Early this morning, he went to the forest at the west end of the village to get some firewood. As soon as he turned out of the alley, he saw Xu Lingzhi wiping his tears with a rake in his arms.

    "No, it's nothing." Xu Lingzhi forced a smile, glanced at the hemp rope in Su Haolin's hand, changed the subject and asked, "What are you doing here?"

    "I have nothing to do, I want to get some firewood. No, why are you crying this New Year's Eve? What's the matter By the way, if you have the energy at home, you can find me, and I will be there whenever you are called."

    "Hi! What can I do? It's just that Sangyu called again. I'm just worried that she's outside alone Who do you think won't go home to celebrate the New Year? Then people in big cities don't celebrate the New Year?"

    Su Haolin hurriedly persuaded: "Auntie, you are really right. There really is no New Year in that big city, and the New Year is no different from usual. The shopping malls, amusement parks, etc. are open as usual, and they are not closed or closed.  .¡±

    "Tell me, a girl's home is outside during the Chinese New Year. All the aunts in the school's dormitory have gone home for the New Year. She goes to live at the student's house What does it sound like to celebrate the New Year at someone else's house By the way, Da Zhuang, you  If you want firewood, you can get it from here, your uncle and I can¡¯t burn all the cotton firewood for a year, you just take it." Xu Lingzhi said, holding his sleeve and wiping tears.

    Su Haolin usually runs the train with his mouth full, and can spit out all kinds of good things, nonsense, and gossip, but when he encounters this kind of person, he really doesn't know how to persuade him, so he waved his hand and said, "No need, auntie, I've already troubled you a lot, then  I'll go over there for a walk, it's windy, go home if you have nothing to do." After finishing speaking, he strode away.

    Su Haolin walked a long way against the cold wind before he stopped. He looked up at the endless woods and the setting sun, heaved a long sigh of relief, and began to bend down to tidy up the dead branches and broken trees on the ground.  After going home to make a fire, Su Haolin started to sweat a little after working for about ten minutes. Just as he straightened up and wanted to catch his breath, he heard someone talking in the woods.  I thought to myself, who is hiding here in this winter to mutter?  Could it be a wild mandarin duck having an affair?  Well, then let me beat the mandarin ducks.  Su Haolin ran towards it with a prank mentality, and touched it lightly.  Gradually, I heard clearly what those two people said.

    "It's okay, it's fine, it's as deep as it is, fall, fall!" This was the voice of the second uncle Su Changhe.  Su Haolin hesitated for a moment after hearing this, and continued walking forward.

    "Can it work? I spent more than 20 yuan for this bottle of medicine, but don't let it work! Why don't you dig a little deeper?" The voice of this person was very strange, and Su Haolin didn't know who it was.

    "How can it not work! Hurry up and pour it, I guarantee that this tree will not sprout! Next spring, you can wait to sell it for money!" Su Changhe urged.

    Although Su Haolin didn't understand why Su Changhe wanted to kill this thick old tree, he couldn't hold back the anger in his chest¡ªthis old mulberry tree was his paradise when he was a child, and he used to lie on the branch countless times  Go to bed, eat mulberries, dig out bird nests.

    "Hey! What are you doing?!" Su Haolin lowered his voice and shouted.

    "Who?!" Su Changhe asked nervously.

    "I belong to the Forestry Bureau! What are you doing there?!" Su Haolin asked hoarsely.

    "Run!" Su Changhe ran away before he finished speaking, and disappeared into the twilight like a rabbit.

    Su Haolin saw that the other person also ran away and disappeared, and then he stepped on the weeds and walked over. He saw a hole as deep as a measuring ruler dug under the mulberry tree, a shovel and a large bottle of herbicide beside the hole.  It was getting dark, and the small characters on the herbicide bottle could no longer be read clearly, but Su Haolin weighed the bottle, and he also firmly believed that if the whole bottle of herbicide fell down, this hundred-year-old mulberry tree might really die.

    "Why did they kill an old tree? To sell wood? Or do they have other purposes? They really want money like crazy!" Su Haolin frowned and looked at the outstretched branches of the ancient mulberry tree, and sighed secretly.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
