Chinese Almanac Master

The next morning, Xiao Nanzhu overslept. Given the fact that what happened last night was quite bizarre, he didn't get a good night's sleep on the first night back to his hometown.

He lay on the bed all night, tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep. After much deliberation, he got up and took off the old almanac on the wall, looked through it carefully for a while, but it was okay if he didn't study it. There are many things in his family's old almanac that he has never noticed.

First of all, from the appearance point of view, this old almanac does not seem to be much different from the general Hong Kong version of almanac. It is the same cover with gold letters on a red background. Various traditional elements symbolizing auspiciousness and festiveness are filled in these ancient almanacs. , On the old paper that records the changes of the four seasons, it carries thousands of years of time and time again and again.People in the old days did not have mobile phones or computers. They judged when to sow and harvest. The way of spring and autumn is to rely on the existence of the old almanac. The current state, the old things like this now seem to be gradually being eliminated due to the continuous progress of the times, but at this moment, when Xiao Nanzhu was smoking a cigarette while leaning on the bedside to open it, he was Still couldn't help but be drawn to it all of a sudden.

As far as the eye can see, the five dates of 360 are arranged sequentially in the form of various gorgeous and exquisite character and animal paintings, ranging from traditional festivals to some international festivals that only appeared in modern times, from the four seasons to the most common ones. Five, a day did not fall.It didn't seem that there was anything particularly strange about it, but it was so strange. When Xiao Nanzhu went up to take a closer look at these exquisite and ancient colored paintings, he was puzzled to find that each calendar More or less, there are some weird things that he can't tell, such as the one he is looking at at the moment...March [-]th Women's Day.

The woman embracing herself in the mirror cannot see her face clearly, but her figure is graceful and graceful.That back has an indescribably romantic and graceful figure, just looking at it makes people think about it, the phoenix hairpin beside her temples is lifelike, the pearl earrings and the scarlet dark pattern dress are really good-looking, logically speaking, this should be It was a very normal picture of a lady dressing, but the sharp-eyed Xiao Nanzhu caught a glimpse of several bottles of modern cosmetics on the pear wood dressing table of this beautiful elder sister for the first time.

Of course, you can’t say that women in ancient times didn’t wear makeup. After all, they also had to put on powder and make their lips look yellow. Besides, it’s hard for a big man like Xiao Nanzhu to judge whether he has bad eyesight or not, but it’s even more strange One thing is, when Xiao Nanzhu, who was frowning tightly, moved his eyes to the mandarin ducks playing in the water screen on one side, he suddenly found a bag that accidentally fell behind the screen, revealing a corner... Hu Shubao .

Xiao Nanzhu: "..."

Immediately he closed the calendar in embarrassment, Xiao Nanzhu, who somehow felt that he was a bit of a rogue, touched his nose, and for a while lost the mind to continue to explore.If the little fatty carp who suddenly appeared and disappeared just now made him doubtful, then this amazing discovery now is enough to convince him that there must be something wrong with the old lady in his family who has worked as a Huangli teacher for decades. Things have been hiding from him.

In his impression, an almanac that has been hanging in his home for at least 15 years has kept the latest time. If he hadn't rarely stayed at home, he probably wouldn't have discovered it until now, but these hidden in the almanac What is going on with the elusive things in the middle and deep...

Thinking like this, Xiao Nanzhu opened his eyes with a little nervousness this night. He used to have a regular schedule when he was in the army, but now his mind is completely disturbed.He inexplicably remembered what Situ Zhang had said to him before, and the thought was almost over.He threw the ghostly old almanac on the coffee table in the living room, and later, out of some inexplicable sense of crisis, Xiao Nanzhu got up again and stuffed it into the refrigerator.

There was nothing in the refrigerator that hadn't been used for half a year except for two rotten eggs. The old almanac that was thrown in it looked a bit like a suppressed ghost against the blue lighting in the refrigerator.

Xiao Nanzhu squinted his eyes and stuffed it into it uncomfortably. After confirming that the thing should not get out of the refrigerator, he went back to his room and began to sleep.After he fell asleep, his messy mind fell into a rare peace, and in his dream, he actually dreamed about something that he had almost forgotten, something that happened when he was a child.

……

Xiao Nanzhu was not an obedient child when he was a child, except for his grandmother who was still docile, he looked arrogant and arrogant to everyone.He also learns from him, and he also reads the books, but the hooligans near the school still ask him to learn martial arts all day long.At that time, Xiao Nanzhu didn't know the severity of his actions, and he could often beat those children who were looking for other things and ran home crying, and every once in a while, his grandma, Mrs. The list of medical expenses from home sighed for a long time.

"I said, Anan, you...why did you break the head of another kid again?"

"If you don't break their heads, your grandson's head will be broken."

Tightly pursing the corners of his bruised mouth, a brat who is only eleven or twelve years old dares to contradict his elders like this.Grandma Xiao was so overwhelmed by this child who was so proud that she couldn't control herself, she had no choice but to find time to pick him up from school every day.

This kind of treatment was the only one among the children at that time. After all, everyone considered themselves to be older children, and no one wanted to let their grandparents hold hands to send them to and from school.Xiao Nanzhu was naturally not happy about it, but his grandma's temper was not much better than his. No matter how dissatisfied he was, he could only hold back, and Situ Zhang deliberately made fun of him every time.This kind of strict discipline has been maintained for a semester. During this period, Xiao Nanzhu was unable to have any contact with those children, but one time Grandma Xiao did not come because of something, and Xiao Nanzhu was blocked by several older children. At the back gate of the school and it was rare that he missed and was taught a bit miserably, a thing that has been remembered in Xiao Nanzhu's mind for many years just happened like this.

For a long time after that, Xiao Nanzhu remembered everything that happened that evening.He was in a bad mood, and his head was stepped on by a pair of smelly rubber shoes that hadn't been cleaned for several days, and his face was covered with dirty ashes.He gritted his teeth and refused to beg for mercy, but the other two children kept holding down his arms and legs. They kept calling him a motherless bastard in his ears, and the sound almost pierced his ears. It hurts, and at this moment, a strange woman suddenly appeared.

"What are you bastards doing? Believe it or not, I'll call your parents over! Ah! Don't run away!! How dare you run away!! You want to run away after hitting my son!! Say! Which school Middle school! Oh, Zhang Da, I know your mother, the little Liu who sells vegetables in the vegetable market, right? You wait for me, and I will tell your mother when I go shopping tomorrow... and you Ah, are you Peng Jiajia, what were you doing just now, you hit someone because you are so tall..."

The woman with a terribly loud voice who scolded like a machine gun helped him drive away those older children, and then gently picked him up from the ground. Xiao Nanzhu, whose eyes were bruised and swollen from the beating, blinked and looked at Looking at this completely strange woman, and that woman patted the ashes on his body and babbled, seeing that Xiao Nanzhu was still silent, she sighed, and then squeezed In order to make his face helpless, he said,

"What are you looking at? If you don't listen to your lord, you deserve it. Let's go home with me."

Xiao Nanzhu didn't know her at all.

But that voice was strange and gentle, half of his heart was warmed, and he was sent home by this woman's hand in a daze, without daring to say a word for a long time.In fact, he also wondered in his heart whether this was the kind of bad guy who kidnapped children, but he didn't worry too much when he thought about how old he was, and he might not be able to buy a lot of money, and the woman didn't seem to care about Xiao Nanzhu either. With a defensive attitude, she just kept admonishing him in a distressed and angry tone like every ordinary woman who is a mother, and Xiao Nanzhu, who had never heard these words since birth, didn't even know that she How did you follow her through that journey?

That day, when he was approaching the door of his house, Xiao Nanzhu saw his grandma running out to meet them in a hurry. His grandma immediately breathed a sigh of relief when she saw the woman holding his hand.

"Hey, today's matter... I'm sorry to trouble you."

"It's okay, then I'll go first."

The woman briefly exchanged a few words with his grandma, then walked into the room and disappeared. That day, Xiao Nanzhu was given a good lesson by his grandma, but he didn't even talk back.He also tentatively asked his grandma who that woman was, but no one could make things difficult for Mrs. Xiao if she didn't want to talk about it.Fortunately, Xiao Nanzhu is not a curious person, even if he didn't know, he didn't bother to investigate carefully, but that night when he opened his schoolbag and was about to do his homework, he suddenly saw the family that the Chinese teacher arranged for them in class. Operation.

"Students, today is Mother's Day. Please go back and write a short essay on my mother. You can write about what happened in your daily life, or you can talk about what you have done for your mother. It will be handed in tomorrow morning." ,May I?"
