晚霞中的原风景

作者：张满娇.

人生就像一条河流，慢慢地汇入大海。有人说，人到晚年，就喜欢回忆。而我一生中倍感温暖的，还有童年的点点滴滴，以及童年时光中的二嫂和表哥。

二嫂十三岁就归了我们的门，那时我七八岁。我母亲也是十三岁做的媳妇。母亲她尝尽了人世的甜酸苦辣, 所以她对二嫂都特别的好，也特别善解人意。

我的哥嫂也特别好，记得每次我二嫂带我去玩,她不但牵着我,还背着我走。二嫂虽然大我五岁,说起话来却象个成年人。

（一）摘杨梅

记得小时候，我和二嫂去天子地摘杨梅。二嫂是山里人，她走这些山路，就象平地一样稳稳当当，而我却累的满头大汗。 嫂嫂就牵着我走，陡的地方就背着我走。我虽有七八岁了,却象个三岁的小孩趴在嫂嫂的背上。背着我走陡坡,我还胆战心惊着呢。

到了杨梅树底下,我坐在那里看着嫂嫂。她爬上杨梅树，象松鼠似的一下子就到树梢上了。她从这个树枝上摘完了又到另一个树枝上去摘,象个轻捷的耗子。有时她脚踩滑了,手捏的牢牢的,她用脚又去勾到另一枝树枝。我在树底下捡嫂嫂摇动树枝掉下的杨梅,仰着头看树上的嫂嫂。她跃上了树梢,杨梅象雨点一样摘起丢进篮子。又过了一会儿,她抱着树杆滑了下来,一篮杨梅也同时到达地面了。

嫂嫂拎着满满的一蓝杨梅往回走。我望了望悬涯陡壁的山峰,再看看崎岖不平的羊肠小道,我有点发抖了不敢迈步。嫂嫂看出了我的恐惧，把手伸了过来,紧紧的捏着我的手。我一步三滑,东倒西歪,勉强的回到了家。

（二）捉泥鳅捡田螺

有一次二嫂带我去捉泥鳅捡田螺。我们走啊走,突然发现一口田里的泥鳅田螺,象养在池塘里一样。稻穗上有各种各样的昆虫,稻穗上空成群结队的蜻蜒,有红的,黄的,灰的等等,飞舞着。这群山环抱着梯田,山上的泉水清澈碧透,诱人。我贪婪的走着,看奇花异草,昆虫......

我正欣赏着，不到一会儿功夫，二嫂已捞了半马篓泥鳅了。我也卷着裤脚,爬到田里捡螺丝。真多啊,一手就抓到六七个,一会儿就有半马篓了。脚痒痒了,我爬上田埂上来看看,双脚都叮满了蚂蝗。嫂嫂随便拔了一把草,放在我脚上一擦,一条条的蚂蝗落在草地上了。我再也不敢下去捡田螺了,嫂嫂脚比我粗糙，她脚上一条蚂蝗都没有。

嫂嫂拎着马篓和饭捞,拉着我回家了。我的脚一路上都流着血。蚂蝗吃了多少血就要流多少血。一到家里,妈妈接过马篓,她看见我全身是泥巴,脚又在流血。她心痛了,想起了一个治蛇咬的秘方,就是烟斗屎,洗干净脚,搽了上去,我脚就不痒了。

（三）捞鱼虾

  二嫂还带过我去捞鱼。她背着我往河边走,我们来到溪边,我坐在石头上给她做伴。嫂嫂走到草丛中去拔一种水红花,尖叶子一米多高的植物,叫马了。放在石头上捣烂,放入水中。河水顿时浑了,鱼无秩序的乱窜,有的蹦出水面。嫂嫂赶快用竹捞子去捞,怎么也捞不着。嫂嫂痴痴呆呆的站在河岸上看,自言自语地说:"我不相信,这么好的药都闹不死鱼。难道水太大了,药太少了？或许是水坝没筑牢,清水进来了？"。

无奈了，她改变主意去捞虾了。虾要等太阳直射的时候,中午十二点钟，它才会聚集在田缺口上面的激流处和下一个缺口处。太阳越来越大,要等到虾聚集的时候,我简直要晒死了。我闹着要回家,我不听嫂嫂的话,快步就走了。她摇了摇头,发出阵阵的叹息声！正在这时,沙堆里的甲鱼象负重似的慢慢的爬了上来。嫂嫂大叫一声：你看！那好象是一只甲鱼。 嫂嫂是山里人,从未见过甲鱼。她好奇的看着它,不敢去捉。我斗胆去捉,突然想起母亲讲甲鱼咬人要等到打雷时才会放口。为了不让它咬手，我用拇指和食指从它的后尾部夹着它。它的头伸的长长的左右摆动,口张的大大的想咬人的样子。我吓的颤抖起来,一震动它的头就缩了回去。于是我不断的振动着,捏着拿回了家。妈妈放在切菜板上,她用手按住它的背,等它的头伸出时,就用菜刀砍下头部。再掏内脏，这内脏做菜味道可鲜呢!

（四）二嫂也很淘气

接下来的几天连绵阴雨,二嫂在家就象没头的鸡,整天这个房间窜窜那个房间窜窜,闷闷不乐。母亲不放心让一个十三岁的嫂嫂一个人在外面干活，就教她在家做饭洗衣做针线活。从教嫂嫂烧开水到放米放多少。又教她把锅底下的柴掏空,火烧到锅底下,水就沸腾起来。嫂嫂就按母亲指的方法去做了。

可母亲刚走开一会儿，她就把火铲火筒搁在灶门石上,另一头搁在烧锅的凳上,自己就睡在上面玩了。一会儿母亲回到到厨房，揭开锅一看米还是生的。走到灶门前一看她，嫂嫂啪的一下就翻下地来了。我母亲就说: 你接着再烧, 帮一下我的忙,等我快把宣纸晾出去,然后卖了钱好给你做衣裳。可等母亲一走，嫂嫂就又爬到厨房门前的桂花树上去玩了,坐在树枝上打秋千。

等母亲进来准备捞饭,发现饭都快糊了。她赶快捞起来放在饭甑里蒸。再去厨房门前,抬头一看,嫂嫂一个鲤鱼打腾从树上跳下来了。母亲看到嫂嫂那样幼稚,笑了笑,嫂嫂也笑了。

母亲又抽出时间教她做针线活。嫂嫂手上的针一点也不听使唤,坐在那里如坐针毡,焦急不安。母亲无奈,只好让她去扫扫地,抹抹桌子。她做家务一点都不感到兴趣,在家里好象做牢房,整天愁眉苦脸的。

有一天下午雨过天晴,山上的树叶碧绿如洗,风景如画。二嫂象开了门的笼中鸟,偷偷爬到门前的苦珠山上去了。里村的冬菊,英崽,彩凤看见了,也来到苦珠树底下。这时候嫂嫂早已爬到树梢,冬菊飞奔回家拿来竹杆就往树上打,英崽就往树上扔石头,我远远抬着头望着嫂嫂。她们都是不会爬树的，很是生气。

我们也曾走遍了梯田,每条沟都是稀稀疏疏的田螺,虾公,泥鳅。还有奇形怪状的昆虫吸在禾苗上，这个禾就叫麻壳红,米是深红色的,煮熟的饭就象死虾公。这个禾要经过春夏秋要到打霜时才能收割。

（五）终于见到表哥

表哥称呼我外婆为奶奶。他参加了红军离开家十多年了。后来有一次路过村庄，那年我七八岁，我终于见到了表哥。

那次趁着太阳还没下山，我带表哥门前山上走走。一到竹山上，树林旁，表哥紧锁的双眉一下子舒展开来了。大自然的美景，触动了他那热爱家乡的弦。他惊叫着: 这就是我挖竹笋的地方。他一会儿抱着翠竹，闻闻竹的清香，仰视尉兰的天空；一会儿抱着绿树，贪觅地深深地吸着叶子放出的新鲜氧气，享受着乡村生活的乐趣。他掏出手帕蹲下去，用手掏了一撮泥土，再摘些鲜花，树叶，小心翼翼地把它包好，放进口袋里。

这时太阳巳经西沉了，天色昏暗。云雀，各种鸟类唧唧啾啾地叫着，向这树林里飞来。夜莺，杜鹃开始合唱，山下的青蛙，蛐蛐，各种有名的没名的虫子为它伴奏。长庚星在西方格外灿烂。天际渐渐吐出银白色的青辉。月亮露出了半边脸，慢慢地升到天空，溶溶地洒落在绿树林里。各式各样的花绕着竹林。牵牛花嵌在树中，迎春花，山茶花等等，挟杂着地上的芳草花香。

这种种大自然的美境，好似一切都是为表哥准备的，一切都在热烈欢迎他的来到。他陶醉了，舍不得回家。我牵起表哥的手，一蹦一跳的走过一簇簇茂盛的树林，窜过一条条田塍。看见窗户透出蒙胧的光与夜空的月光融为一体，沉入它的深邃中去。不一会儿，我们走回了家。

（六）表哥又走了

  雨过天晴，三月的艳阳天，太阳是多么娇媚灿烂。它斜射进淌着的窗户，晒在我们身上，似火的夕阳辣辣的。母亲发现傍晚了，她拖着沉重的疲惫的身子，慢慢地走进厨房，把毛柴点着了。烟囱筒里乌黑的浓烟滚滚，绕绕上升与天空空气融合在一起。

站在龙角湾顶往下望，村庄的房屋尽收眼底。窗前的菜地里，鸟儿在啾啾的呜叫着。蝴蝶在翩翩起舞，蜜蜂嗡嗡地叫着，穿行在花朵之中。到处充满温馨和谐欢乐的气氛。

那天夜里，外婆就这样一直唠叨着。不觉半夜时分，天空吞没了最后一颗星星，月亮照在破旧的房顶上，他们不知疲备地谈论着，越谈越起劲。我听得似懂非懂，瞌睡阵阵，睡眼朦胧，我先去睡了。

不一会，窗缝隙里透进了银白色的曙光。表哥吃了饭走了，我听到她们送表哥去的声音，我一骨碌爬了起来。忪惺的眼睛，蓬着头发，脸也没有洗，就追出门外。

这时表哥走的很远很远了，外婆母亲她们还在挥手。这时远处挤得密密层层的树林都伸着脖子竞相发芽了。东方还没露出太阳，杉林的那一头闪出各式各样的光辉。依稀看见有人陆陆续续的下山来，我们恋恋不舍地挥手再挥手，直到表哥渐渐走远了，消失了，我们还站了很久很久才回家。

走过一生，心境像江河归大海，只有心灵的原风景依然不变。晚霞中，我遥望走过的路，我看见了童年，那一生难忘的原风景.....（End）——

The original scenery in the sunset (Zhang manjiao)

The original scenery in the sunset

Author: Zhang manjiao

Life is like a river, slowly flowing into the sea. Some people say that people like memories in their later years. What I feel warm in my life are the bits and pieces of my childhood, as well as my second sister-in-law and cousin in my childhood.

My second sister-in-law returned to our door when she was 13. At that time, I was seven or eight years old. My mother is also a 13-year-old daughter-in-law. Mother, she has tasted the sweets and bitters of the world, so she is particularly good and considerate to her second sister-in-law.

My brother and sister-in-law are also very good. I remember that every time my second sister-in-law takes me to play, she not only leads me, but also carries me away. Although my second sister-in-law is five years older than me, she speaks like an adult.

（1） Picking red bayberry

I remember when I was a child, my second sister-in-law and I went to heaven to pick red bayberry. The second sister-in-law is from the mountains. She walks these mountain roads as steadily as the flat ground, but I'm tired and sweating. My sister-in-law led me and carried me on her back in steep places. Although I am seven or eight years old, I lie on my sister-in-law's back like a three-year-old child. I'm still scared when I walk on a steep slope behind my back.

When I got under the bayberry tree, I sat there and looked at my sister-in-law. She climbed up the bayberry tree and went to the top of the tree like a squirrel. After picking from one branch, she went to another branch, like a light mouse. Sometimes her feet slipped and her hands were firm. She used her feet to hook another branch. I picked up my sister-in-law under the tree, shook the red bayberry falling from the branch, and looked up at my sister-in-law on the tree. She jumped to the top of the tree, and the red bayberry was picked up like rain and thrown into the basket. After a while, she slid down holding the tree pole, and a basket of red bayberry reached the ground at the same time.

My sister-in-law walked back with a full of blue bayberry. I looked at the mountains hanging on the cliff and the rugged trail. I was a little trembling and didn't dare to step. Seeing my fear, my sister-in-law reached out and held my hand tightly. I slipped three steps, staggered, and reluctantly returned home.

（2） Catch loach and pick up snails

Once my second sister-in-law took me to catch loach and snails. As we walked, we suddenly found a loach snail in the field, as if it were raised in a pond. There are all kinds of insects on the ears of rice. There are groups of dragonflies flying over the ears of rice, including red, yellow, gray and so on. The mountains are surrounded by terraces, and the springs on the mountains are clear and attractive. I walked greedily, watching strange flowers and plants, insects

I was enjoying it. In a short time, my second sister-in-law had fished half a horse basket of loach. I also rolled up my trouser legs and climbed into the field to pick up the screws. It's so many. I caught six or seven in one hand, and there will be half a horse basket in a moment. My feet are itchy. I climb up the ridge and have a look. My feet are full of leeches. My sister-in-law casually pulled up a handful of grass and wiped it on my feet. One by one, the leeches fell on the grass. I dare not go down to pick up snails any more. My sister-in-law's feet are coarser than mine. She doesn't have a leech on her feet.

My sister-in-law took me home with a horse basket and rice fishing. My feet are bleeding all the way. The leech will shed as much blood as it eats. As soon as I got home, my mother took the horse basket. She saw that my whole body was covered with mud and my feet were bleeding again. Her heart ached and she remembered a secret recipe for treating snake bite, that is, pipe excrement. Wash my feet and put it on, so my feet won't itch.

（3） Fish and shrimp fishing

The second sister-in-law also took me to fish. She carried me to the river. We came to the stream. I sat on a stone to keep her company. My sister-in-law went to the grass to pull up a plant with saffron and sharp leaves more than one meter high. She called it a horse. Smash it on a stone and put it into the water. The river suddenly became muddy, and the fish ran disorderly, and some jumped out of the water. Sister-in-law quickly fished with bamboo, but she couldn't find it. My sister-in-law stood on the Bank of the river and said to herself, "I don't believe such good medicine can't kill the fish. Is the water too big and the medicine too little? Maybe the dam wasn't built firmly and the clean water came in?".

Helpless, she changed her mind to fish shrimp. The shrimp will not gather at the torrent above the gap in the field and at the next gap until the sun is direct at 12 noon. The sun is getting bigger and bigger. When the shrimp gather, I'm almost dead from the sun. I clamored to go home. I didn't listen to my sister-in-law and left quickly. She shook her head and sighed! At this time, the turtle in the sand slowly climbed up like a load. The sister-in-law shouted: Look! It looks like a turtle. My sister-in-law is from the mountains and has never seen turtle. She looked at it curiously and dared not catch it. I ventured to catch it, and suddenly remembered that my mother said that turtle bites until thunder. In order not to let it bite, I held it from its rear tail with my thumb and index finger. Its head extended long and swung left and right, and its mouth was wide open, trying to bite. I trembled with fear, and as soon as I shook it, its head retracted. So I kept vibrating and took it home. Mother put it on the cutting board. She pressed its back with her hand. When its head stretched out, she cut off its head with a kitchen knife. Then take out the internal organs. The internal organs are delicious to cook!

（4） The second sister-in-law is also very naughty

In the next few days, it rained continuously. The second sister-in-law was like a chicken without a head at home. She ran from room to room all day and was unhappy. Mother was worried about letting a 13-year-old sister-in-law work outside alone, so she taught her to cook, wash, and sew at home. From teaching sister-in-law how to boil water to how much rice to put. She was also taught to empty the firewood at the bottom of the pot, burn the fire to the bottom of the pot, and the water will boil. The sister-in-law did it according to the method pointed out by her mother.

But as soon as her mother walked away for a while, she put the fire shovel and fire tube on the stove door stone and the other end on the cooking pot stool, so she slept on it and played. After a while, my mother went back to the kitchen and opened the pot to see that the rice was still raw. When I came to the stove door and saw her, my sister-in-law flipped down. My mother said: you can burn it again and help me. When I hang out the rice paper quickly, I will sell it for money to make clothes for you. But as soon as her mother left, her sister-in-law climbed up the osmanthus tree in front of the kitchen door and played on the swing on the branch.

When my mother came in to fish for rice, she found that the rice was almost burnt. She quickly picked it up and steamed it in a rice steamer. Then I went to the kitchen door and looked up. My sister-in-law jumped out of the tree with a carp. The mother saw that her sister-in-law was so childish and smiled, and so did her sister-in-law.

Mother took time to teach her sewing again. The needle on her hand didn't listen at all. She sat there on pins and needles and was anxious. Mother had no choice but to let her sweep the floor and wipe the table. She is not interested in doing housework at all. She seems to be a prison cell at home and looks sad all day.

One afternoon, it was sunny after the rain. The leaves on the mountain were green and picturesque. The second sister-in-law, like a caged bird with the door open, secretly climbed to kuzhu mountain in front of the door. Dongju, Yingzai and Caifeng in the village saw it and came to the bottom of the bitter pearl tree. At this time, my sister-in-law had already climbed to the top of the tree. Dongju rushed home to fetch the bamboo pole and hit it on the tree. Yingzai threw stones on the tree. I looked up at my sister-in-law from a distance. They can't climb trees and are very angry.

We have also visited the terraced fields. Each ditch is sparsely covered with snails, shrimps and loaches. There are also strange insects sucking on the seedlings, which is called hemp shell red. The rice is dark red, and the cooked rice is like a dead shrimp male. This crop will go through spring, summer and autumn, and can't be harvested until it is frosted.

（5） Finally meet my cousin

My cousin called my grandmother grandma. He joined the Red Army and has been away from home for more than ten years. Later, I passed by the village once. When I was seven or eight years old, I finally met my cousin.

That time, before the sun set, I took my cousin to the mountain in front of my door. On reaching the bamboo mountain, beside the woods, my cousin's locked eyebrows suddenly stretched out. The beauty of nature touched his string of love for his hometown. He exclaimed: This is where I dig bamboo shoots. For a moment, he held the green bamboo, smelled the fragrance of the bamboo and looked up at the sky of Weilan; For a while, I held the green trees, greedily and deeply absorbed the fresh oxygen released by the leaves, and enjoyed the fun of rural life. He took out his handkerchief, squatted down, took out a pinch of soil with his hand, picked some flowers and leaves, wrapped it carefully and put it in his pocket.

By this time, the sun had set in the West and it was dark. Skylarks, all kinds of birds chirping, came to the woods. Nightingales and cuckoos began to sing, accompanied by frogs, crickets and all kinds of famous and unknown insects at the foot of the mountain. Changgeng star is particularly brilliant in the West. The sky gradually spits out a silvery blue glow. The moon showed half its face, slowly rose to the sky and fell in the green woods. All kinds of flowers surround the bamboo forest. Morning glory is embedded in the tree, spring jasmine, camellia and so on, mixed with the fragrance of fragrant grass and flowers on the ground.

This kind of natural beauty seems to be all prepared for my cousin, and everything is warmly welcoming him. He was intoxicated and reluctant to go home. I took my cousin's hand and jumped through clusters of lush woods and fields. I saw the dim light from the window integrated with the moonlight in the night sky and sank into its depth. After a while, we walked home.

（6） My cousin left again

It's sunny after rain. How charming and brilliant the sun is on a sunny day in March. It slanted into the flowing window and basked on us. It was like a hot sunset. Mother found that it was evening. She dragged her heavy and tired body into the kitchen slowly and lit the firewood. The chimney rose and merged with the black smoke in the sky.

Looking down from the top of Longjiao Bay, you can have a panoramic view of the houses in the village. In the vegetable field in front of the window, birds are chirping. Butterflies are dancing and bees are buzzing through the flowers. There is a warm, harmonious and happy atmosphere everywhere.

That night, grandma kept nagging. Unconsciously, in the middle of the night, the sky swallowed up the last star, and the moon shone on the dilapidated roof. They talked tirelessly and worked harder. I understood it as if I knew it. I was sleepy and sleepy. I went to sleep first.

After a while, there was a silver dawn in the gap of the window. My cousin left after dinner. I heard them send my cousin away. I got up with all my strength. Bleary eyes, covered with hair and unwashed face, chased out of the door.

At this time, my cousin walked very far, and my grandmother and mother were still waving. At this time, the crowded woods in the distance stretched their necks and sprouted. The sun had not yet appeared in the East, and all kinds of brilliance flashed at the end of the fir forest. Vaguely, we saw someone coming down the mountain one after another. We waved and waved again and again reluctantly until our cousin gradually walked away and disappeared. We didn't go home until we stood for a long time.

After a lifetime, the state of mind is like a river returning to the sea. Only the original scenery of the soul remains unchanged. In the sunset, I looked at the road I had walked, and I saw the unforgettable original scenery of my childhood （End）——
