Nan Ming's mother likes to take care of him with a basket, as if she has endless work. Every time I see him lying on Shunyi's back, drooling and his chubby face with two fat balls, I want to pinch him twice.
There is a story about the name of Nan Ming. In the early 1970s, my production team went to the countryside to manage the fields. Han, a member, is in his prime. He is a good hand at farm work, and his name is often among the best in the year-end bonus of the production team. That year, he fell in love with the girl in the same village, but the girl already had a sweetheart and refused the news of the matchmaker. He was puzzled and bitter. When his son was born, he named him "Nanming". Although he didn't disclose his name to outsiders, everyone in the village speculated that he wouldn't marry the girl in the same village, which was a homophonic expression that was incomprehensible.
Whether you understand it or not, as time goes on, Nan Ming grows up day by day. The child seemed to have ADHD when he was two years old. He likes playing outside and crossing the street. He prefers to sell sweets and biscuits in the supply and marketing cooperative store at the entrance of the village to find something to eat. Shunyi is heartbroken for this. Every day, she is busy with heavy housework such as cutting pig vegetables, feeding pigs and cooking, and at the same time, she has to take care of her grandson for fear of safety accidents. Sometimes she walks through several alleys, shouting "Nanming" and "Nanming" and running after her grandson-
Han's home is near our educated youth dormitory. Nan Ming, a child, did not know how to learn that aluminum pot, an educated youth, was raised in the yard. He has a bad habit of "eating early and washing late, and eating mice at night". Therefore, he likes to find something to eat in aluminum pot. On weekdays, when the educated youth saw him wandering at the gate of the yard, they would carry him to the yard to feed him and pinch two cute fat balls on his face. After dinner, Nan Ming strolled home contentedly. As he walked, he would mutter rude words and vent the dissatisfaction of educated youth pinching his face. When the educated youth saw this, they shouted after him, scaring him to run away desperately and shouting dirty words while running, which made the educated youth burst into laughter.
On one occasion, Nan Ming sneaked into the yard to look for food, and found that there was nothing to eat in aluminum pot. In order to vent his dissatisfaction, he lifted the lid and peed in the aluminum pot. The educated youth who came back from work found out in time that he was "punished" again-he pinched two cute fat balls on his face.
Nanming is interesting and lovely, which has become a happy fruit for us to relieve difficulties and relax after work, but Nanming also has something that scares us. At that time, Nan Ming went into the educated youth yard to find something to eat. I picked him up and made him happy. Suddenly, his feet shrank, his head tilted to one side, his eyes turned white and he was foaming at the mouth. Oh, my God, what happened? Dead? Just when I was at a loss, I found my grandson. She pulled Nan Ming, let him lie prone on his chest, and skillfully slapped Nan Ming's back. Nan Ming gradually woke up, safe and sound. From then on, I knew that Nanming suffered from intermittent epilepsy, and I never played around again.
What scares everyone most is the disappearance of Nan Ming. Before the Spring Festival that year, it was freezing and rainy. Members put on thick cotton trousers early, and the children dressed more like zongzi. That afternoon, Shunyi looked everywhere, all the streets and alleys, but there was still no sign of Nanming.
Nan Ming is gone! Nan Ming is gone! The unfortunate news spread all over the village at once, diluting the festive atmosphere of people welcoming the Spring Festival.
That night, I looked at my grandson Nan Ming's empty bed and felt very hurt. I blamed myself for not taking good care of my grandson. I couldn't help but burst into tears and was in great pain.
The next morning, the Ahan couple stopped working, and finding their son was their most important task at present. Ahan searched all the streets, all the villages, all the rivers and wells, but he really didn't see anyone alive or dead. Where is Nan Ming going?
Uncle Murakami, the captain of the production team, reported the disappearance of Nan Ming to the safety meeting of the brigade and arranged for the team members to look around for Nan Ming. The members went to other villages separately and asked everyone to find the whereabouts of Nan Ming, but in the end they all failed.
Time goes by day, and today is the fifth day. Where is Nan Ming going? Is the difficulty turned by traffickers? In this relatively closed country, foreigners generally do not come, and it is unlikely that they will be abducted by traffickers. This is the analysis of members chatting in the production team at night.
One member said, "Nan Ming likes to play in the pond. Will he fall into the water?" "Impossible! Five days have passed, and if you fall into the water, the body will float to the surface. " Another member seemed to have some common sense, so he cut in.
"These nights, I heard the thin cry, may be his dream! Every time I was awakened by crying, I couldn't hear it after listening carefully. It's terrible! " Jane, who lives next door to the supply and marketing cooperative store, said in horror.
"May have a" revenge "with you, have you ever hit him and scolded him? He dreams of settling accounts with you! " The female member said sarcastically.
"Nan Ming may hide under your bed and cry for what you want to eat!" Another member seems to know Nan Ming's hiding place. Jane said helplessly and unconvinced, "I looked everywhere under the bed, inside and outside the house, but I couldn't see Nanming, not even a ghost." "Why don't you sleep with me tonight? I am really scared. " "I won't sleep with you. I am most afraid of ghosts. "
Jane's conversation with a female member caught the attention of Li, a nearby engineer.
Gong Li works in the county agricultural machinery factory, and Jane is her neighbor. He asked Jane to take him home and let her describe how she heard Nan Ming cry. Gong Li noticed that the window of Jane's room was facing the window of the supply and marketing cooperative store warehouse. Will Nan Ming's crying come from the supply and marketing cooperative store warehouse? Gong Li's analysis makes the members feel reasonable, but they also feel that Nan Ming has been missing for the fifth day. It's probably unfortunate, but it's just a theoretical analysis, that's all.
At 8 o'clock in the morning on the sixth day, the supply and marketing cooperative store opened for business. Gong Li and Ahan explained the situation to the director of the supply and marketing cooperative store, and then went into the warehouse to find Nan Ming. Gong Li and Han searched every hiding place in the warehouse, but they still didn't see Nan Ming. When they were ready to leave in disappointment, Gong Li turned around and found a laundry basket full of sundries under the window of the warehouse. Gong Li opened the sundries and saw it. Wow! Nan Ming slept peacefully in the laundry basket, and the two fat balls on his dirty face disappeared! Han immediately picked up Nan Ming, feeling that he was still warm, but his life was hanging by a thread, and immediately took him home to fill rice soup.
After a day of conditioning, Nan Ming gradually woke up and pulled down the stool with a lot of dead ascaris. As you can imagine, the ascaris lumbricoides in Nanming's intestines could not stand the nutrition supply for 6 days and was starved to death.
So how did Nan Ming get into the laundry list? "It is estimated that Nan Ming went to the supply and marketing cooperative store warehouse to find something to eat that day and mistakenly sat in the laundry list. The body shape is "U". Because the cotton trousers were too thick, he couldn't move, so he just fell asleep and cried when he was hungry. Usually there are fewer people entering the warehouse, the laundry basket is covered with sundries, and Nanming has not been discovered. " Gong Li's analysis has eyes and ears, as if he were there himself.
"How can I explain being hungry for six days?" The member asked doubtfully. Gong Li said: "Nan Ming slept in the laundry basket for six days, and was in a static state, which completely consumed his internal strength to sustain life. Don't you think Nan Ming has lost a lot of weight? "
After two weeks of nutrition supplement and physical conditioning, Nan Ming recovered her lovely appearance, and her chubby face was more round and shiny, with two fat balls.
As the saying goes: if you survive a disaster, you will never be blessed. But this is not reflected in Nan Ming. After I went back to work in the city, I heard that Nanming had a seizure and died while playing at the fish pond.
In a blink of an eye, more than 40 years have passed, and our society has undergone earth-shaking changes, and people's lives have been improving day by day. A few days ago, I revisited my hometown and saw that with the development of new urbanization, most members lived a happy life. Children are more like sunny flowers, thriving in the sunshine and rain. At this moment, I thought of Nan Ming, a child who once brought us joy, especially the two fat balls on his chubby face.
