At the end of the 1980s, Lingnan Province was the largest province in terms of gross domestic product. People came here to do business, so people from all walks of life and all kinds of people gathered here.
Shao City, as the gateway to the north of Lingnan, although its economy was relatively backward, it had the most various inheritances. In this small city, it was formed by mountains that filled the city. Whether you were in the city or in the countryside, you could see mountains everywhere you looked up. The world-famous Danxia Mountain was also located here, so it was also called Shao Mountain!
However, burial was popular at that time, especially in this city surrounded by mountains. There were many graves on every mountain, and there were even mass graves left behind during the war. Not to mention children, even adults would walk past in a hurry and never dare to stop.
It was summer vacation, and Tianming Chen and a few other children were catching eels in an abandoned pond. They were also six-year-old children, but Tianming Chen was a size bigger than his friends. His face was red and his teeth were white, and his eyes flickered from time to time.
"Quick, catch him, don't let it get away!”Da Hu, who was standing on the pond, pointed at the black shadow that flashed across the pond's mud. Saliva kept spurting out of his mouth as he shouted anxiously.
Chen Tianming stared at the black shadow. His hands quickly dug into the mud, and his companions also blocked the eel.
"Hey, catch it." Tianming Chen suddenly shouted. He quickly grabbed and threw a black figure into the air. With a " pa " sound, it fell onto the ground above. A huge eel struggled on the ground, but in its eyes, a huge head appeared. Its mouth was wide enough to swallow its head. It kept widening its eyes, and finally stopped struggling obediently and accepted its fate.
"Brother Tianming, this eel is so big.”Hu Zi crouched down and watched as the eel stopped struggling. He then stood up and said to Chen Tianming.
"Alright, let's call it a day. Let's go home and have a big meal.”Chen Tianming wiped his sweat with his muddy hands. It was not dirty, but his face was not very clean anyway.
A group of people climbed out of the pond. There was a net on the ground, and in it was their harvest for the day. Chen Tianming generously distributed the rest of the things to his friends. He carried a big turtle and the eel back home.
"Dad, Mom, I'm back." Chen Tianming returned home excitedly and threw down the two great tonics in the courtyard.
"Tianming, you're back. Hurry up and take a shower. You're so dirty.”Liao Xiaolan walked out and glanced at Chen Tianming. She didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
"Okay, I'll wash in the yard. Mom, help me get my clothes.”Tianming Chen said with a smile. After saying that, she took off her clothes in a few seconds. She was naked all over. She picked up the water pipe for the vegetables and turned on the tap to wash them. It was really comfortable to take a cold shower in the middle of summer.
"Oh, the two dishes I brought back this time are quite big. There's enough food for tonight. Why don't we make them tomorrow?”Chen Ping 'an walked out of the living room and looked at the harvest that Chen Tianming had brought back. His eyes could not help but light up.
"Dad, you can do whatever you want.”Tianming Chen said with a smile.
"Big brother, I'm back." At this moment, a voice came from the door.
The father and son looked.
"Bingguang!" "Second Uncle."
Standing at the door was Chen Ping 'an's younger brother, Chen Bingguang, who was also Chen Tianming's second uncle. According to him, he often did business in the north and rarely stayed in Shaoshan. It was strange that at this time, everyone came to the south to go to the sea, but he went the opposite way and went north.
Seeing Chen Bingguang standing at the door, Chen Tianming excitedly threw down the water pipe and rushed towards Chen Bingguang.
"Hey, hey, hey, brat, the water is still naked.”Chen Bingguang pushed Chen Tianming away with a look of disgust and kept muttering.
The whole family sat in the living room. Chen Ping 'an was making tea while Liao Xiaolan was dealing with the big turtle and big eel that Chen Tianming had brought back. There was originally enough food for dinner, but Chen Bingguang had returned. They had to celebrate. There was no need to keep the big turtle and big eel until tomorrow.
"Bingguang, how long are you staying this time?”Chen Ping 'an asked.
"Brother, it's only for a few days this time.”Chen Bingguang said.
"Second Uncle, did you bring anything back for me this time?”Chen Tianming was a little bashful as he looked at Chen Bingguang expectantly.
"This!" Chen Bingguang's voice was a little dragged.
"Second Uncle…" Chen Tianming stood up and walked to Chen Bingguang's side, shaking his arm.
"Alright, alright, stop shaking." Chen Bingguang stopped Chen Tianming and took out a box from his pocket.
"Here, this is for you. This is also a gift for you when you start elementary school.”Chen Bingguang smiled and patted Chen Tianming's head.
Chen Tianming opened the box and found a pendant. The red string had been tied, and on it was a piece of jade of unknown quality.
"Second Uncle will put it on for you." Chen Ping 'an said with a smile.
"Yes." Chen Tianming nodded with a smile and put on the pendant. A cool feeling spread from the chest where the pendant touched to his entire body. He did not feel hot in the dog days of Lingnan. Chen Tianming thanked Chen Bingguang excitedly.
"Ping 'an, everything is settled. You do it.”Liao Xiaolan came out of the kitchen and said to Chen Ping 'an.
"Alright, you rest first. I'll go cook.”Chen Ping 'an said.
"Brother, remember to add chili." Chen Bingguang said to Chen Ping 'an with a smile.
"I know. I remember your taste. As a Lingnan person, you actually like spicy food. Where did you get this habit from?”Chen Ping 'an shook his head.
Chen Bingguang, Liao Xiaolan, and Chen Tianming were chatting in the living room. Chen Bingguang told them some of his experiences in the north, which made the mother and son exclaim in surprise.
At the dining table, two nutritious dishes were made into two large pots of dishes and placed on the table. Two men and a boy were wolfing down the food. They were sweating profusely as they ate. The chopsticks in their hands kept sending food into their mouths. As a six-year-old child, Tianming Chen not only finished two bowls of rice, but he also kept fighting with the dishes on the table.
Eating was the key to having a stronger body than others of the same age. With nutrition, one could become stronger! It was a blessing to be able to eat!
"Whoosh!"
"Whoosh!"
"Whoosh!"
The three men leaned back on the chairs, their faces comfortable. The table was a mess, describing their brutality.
Liao Xiaolan was packing up in the kitchen. The three of them sat in the living room drinking tea to get bored. Then, Liao Xiaolan came out and the family sat in the living room chatting. Before they knew it, it was already past 10 o'clock.
"Big Brother, Sister-in-law, I'll go back and rest first. "Chen Bingguang stood up and said.
"Alright, take care. "Chen Ping 'an and Liao Xiaolan also stood up to see him out.
Chen Tianming followed Chen Bingguang out.”Dad, Mom, I'm going to sleep at Second Uncle's place tonight.“
"Alright. Chen Bingguang looked at Chen Tianming and said with a smile. Liao Xiaolan reminded Chen Tianming to sleep early.
Chen Tianming followed Chen Bingguang back to Chen Bingguang's house. The two of them lay on the same bed.
Chen Tianming's body was burning and he couldn't sleep. He pushed Chen Bingguang and asked him to tell him stories. What his second uncle saw was something he had never seen before, and it filled him with novelty.
"Alright, I'll tell you the story of a pair of earthen masters entering the tomb. "Chen Bingguang seemed to be interested as he said to Chen Tianming.
