all the way

As soon as Liu Chuan came back, the family was ready.

The children have grown up and have seen some world outside. Liu Changqing will now ask their opinions on some important family matters.

Thirty had lunch on this day, and the wind was still blowing outside. Liu Changqing, Liu Changchun, Liu Kui, and Liu Chuan went down together to discuss how Liu Yu's wedding room should be remodeled.

Liu Xia, Liu Wei, Liu Rui and Mao'er were sitting on the kang, Liu Wei was doing homework, and Liu Xia was practicing calligraphy.

What Maoer is facing today is Ouyang Xun's "Heart Sutra", which is one of dozens of calligraphy inscriptions that Zeng Guangtong brought back to them when he returned from Kyoto in the summer vacation. Sun Chang'e found it by accident and liked it very much. A child has nothing to write and write more.

Mao'er still doesn't understand the meaning of it, but he likes Ouyang Xun's regular script very much, and has been writing it recently. Grandma likes this one, so he wrote it seriously for grandma to make her happy.

Liu Rui has also written more than once under the guidance of Liu Changqing and Liu Kui.

Sun Chang'e is old and has worked hard all her life. She has never asked for anything for herself. Liu Chuan and Su Xiaohui wanted to buy clothes for her and Liu Changqing. , Let her know that going to Rongze is to spend money on clothes, she will definitely not go.

So Liu Kui and the others hope that she has something to think about, so that they can have the opportunity to fulfill her wish. She likes an article, and asking them to write it is not a problem for them. Her wish can be satisfied with a little effort. Happy to be fulfilled.

As for whether they are superstitious or not, they have never thought about it. Even if they are superstitious, Sun Chang'e is only superstitious in her own home, and it does not hinder others, and no one can control it.

After Liu Wei grew up with her own aesthetics, she has always had a special liking for Zhong Yao's writing, and Liu Rui followed him to fall in love with Zhong Yao. He is presenting "Handu Ling" today.

Liu Xia watched the two write for a while, and felt that there was no problem, so he flipped through "Lanting Preface" by himself.

Liu Changqing said that his handwriting has improved a lot recently, and what needs to be improved now is the pattern when writing the whole article. Liu Xia likes to read "Orchid Pavilion Preface" and "Manuscript for Worshiping Nephew" most. He feels that even the position and smearing of those seals The traces seemed to make him feel comfortable.

Liu Hai asked Liu Xin to sit on his lap, and taught him to draw a bird by the edge of the Kang. Liu Xin looked at Liu Hai's painting of a bird standing on a branch with its head tilted and singing, and asked, "Uncle Liu, how can you draw a little bird?" Chonger (the dialect of sparrow birds) has only one eye, why does it still look like it when I look at it?"

Liu Hai has been tempered by Liu Xin's similar problems in the past few days, and he said casually: "One-eyed bugs are also bugs, if Uncle Liu's painting is good, you will think it looks like it."

Liu Ling was learning to engrave stamps with a piece of old elm wood, and kicked Liu Hai: "You make nonsense for me again, and teach the child well."

Liu Hai wrinkled his face and said, "I told him in technical terms, but you said he didn't understand, and asked me to tell him in common language. I can't think of any common language that can replace professional terms!"

At the other end of the cave, there were a large array of various Hanamaki steamed buns, washed dishes, and bowls prepared by Liu Ling and Liu Chuan, and it was full of Chinese New Year feeling.

Sun Chang'e hugged Liu Yun, and Liu Yu hugged Liu Lei. They gathered around the stove with Xiumei and Su Xiaohui, studying how to fry a plate of peanuts with a suitable heat in a large iron pot for a dozen people.

Su Xiaohui said that peanuts are one of the men's favorite dishes to drink with. Rongze's men must have this dish when they drink. They want to fry a plate for the men to have with drinks during the Chinese New Year tomorrow.

Because Liu Yu had a bad attitude towards marriage, he had a negative attitude when talking about expanding and beautifying his wedding house, and he kept pulling out the valve core, which caused public outrage. The adults in the family went to plan his new house but excluded him. Have fun.

Liu Yu didn't want to get married in the past two years. Apart from the influence of Liu Mao's second marriage on him, there was another main reason: he felt that the family had to rest for a few years. Both the family and Yanagawa continued to owe money, and with Yanagawa having twins, it was even more difficult to save money.

Liu Yu knows very well that if he doesn't have enough money to get married, it will be Liu Changqing who will be in trouble at that time. In the end, everything will have to fall on the heads of the eldest brother, the third brother and Xiao Ling, and now there is another young son .

Liu Kui has been inquiring about building a road to Sandaohe, isn't he just wanting to earn money for his wedding?If you don't care about him, the money Xiaoling sends back every month is enough to support the uncle's family, not to mention that Yao'er is still earning money now, earning more than herself.

Liu Yu wants to save money for a few more years before getting married.

Of course, there is another reason. After Liu Yu went out, he found that men in other places usually get married at the age of 24 or 22. He is only [-] years old. He really feels that he has not grown up yet, and he wants to live freely for another two years.

Xiumei finally made up her mind to give it a try. According to the theoretical experience Su Xiaohui had heard from others, when the peanuts stopped crackling, it would be fine.

Su Xiaohui heated up the fire very vigorously, and the sound of firewood crackling and crackling drowned out the sound of peanuts. A few people were not sure about the heat, so they fried it based on their feeling.

Because the pot is too big, the shovel used for cooking is not strong enough to pull the peanuts, and I can't get a few at a time. It takes several minutes to get the peanuts on the plate, and then sprinkle salt on them as soon as they come out of the pot.

The peanuts that just came out were bright red, and several people thought they were successful, but after a while, the color of the peanuts became darker and darker. Xiumei pinched one and put it in her mouth, chewed it a few times, and grinned: "Um ——Why is it so bitter?"

Su Xiaohui also pinched one and tasted it, and said embarrassedly: "It seems that the frying time is too long, the heat is too high, and it's fried."

Liu Yun and Liu Lei saw that their mother and mother were eating, but they didn't give them anything. They screamed anxiously, and Liu Yun's saliva dripped down. The little guy stopped immediately.

Everyone felt sorry for the plate of peanuts. Chang'e Sun said, "Crush them in a while and sprinkle them in the ditch. Let's feed them to the chickens. How about we try again?"

Before she finished speaking, the door was pushed open, Liu Fulai walked in with a piece of red paper, saw a room full of people, but Liu Changqing was absent, and scratched his head in embarrassment: "Seventh Aunt, I, I will write the pair .”

Chang'e Sun pointed to the people beside the kang and said with a smile, "If you don't win, ask them to write for you. Your seventh uncle is busy today."

Liu Ling stood up: "Brother Fulai, if you don't mind, I'll write it for you. My uncle won't be back until a while later. When I come back, I should go to the grave of my ancestors again."

Liu Fulai handed the red paper to Liu Ling: "I was afraid that you didn't want to write to me, why would you dislike it?"

Liu Xia and the others moved the kang table to the east to make room for Liu Ling. It happened that they had been writing for a long time, so Liu Xia let Maoer and Liu Rui rest for a while.

Liu Wei had too much homework, so she didn't dare to rest and continued.

Liu Fulai watched Liu Ling write a pair, and began to peek at the other people in the room. He felt that everyone in the room was probably annoying him, and he was afraid that Liu Xia would say something nasty and make him unable to get off the stage. .

But until he left, nothing happened. Liu Xia sat Mao'er in his arms, and watched "Lanting Preface" with Mao'er.

Although they were very angry when they heard Niu Sannier and Liu Miao's quarrel the day before yesterday, everyone in Liu Changqing's family couldn't show any face to Liu Fulai, let alone say anything ugly.

I just don’t want Liu Fulai to come over to help dig caves in the past year or so, and I don’t want him to deliver milk for the cats these years, but because Liu Changqing moved his family here and has been neighbors with him for more than 30 years, Liu Changqing and Sun Chang’e can be said to be good friends. Since she grew up with him, and because he has relied on and trusted Liu Changqing for so many years, Chang'e Sun would not allow the children to say anything out of the ordinary to Liu Fu.

Half an hour after Liu Fulai left, Liu Changqing and the others came back. The offerings for ancestor worship had already been prepared, but the wind was too strong outside, and the ceremony was very intense. After the ceremony was over, Liu Changqing immediately took the male family members to the grave.

On the way back, he looked at the cat who was wrapped up by Liu Xia so that only the eyes were exposed, and the whole person was like a ball, and said: "Changchun, when you worship your ancestors next year, let the cat come with you. When the child grows up, he should know all these things."

Liu Xia pulled the cat to his side again, feeling a little uncomfortable.

As soon as a large group of them reached the slope of Liu Fulai's house, they saw Liu Fulai running here from the south of the Fengxi River stepping on the stones in the river. When they saw them, they shouted: "Seventh Uncle, Eighth Uncle, Liu Kui, Please help me find Zhaomiao, he has escaped."

Liu Miao ran away, and when Liu Fulai went to Liu Changqing's house to write a pair, Liu Fulai heard what Liu Mudan said after he returned home. As soon as he went out, Niu Sannier said: "Don't listen to me, go Go ahead, our family will call Mao Er Ke to death later, let's see what he does."

Liu Miao was washing her own clothes at the time, and when she heard this, she dropped the clothes in a basin, went back to her room, picked up a quilt and two pieces of clothes, and left. She didn't know how to chase, so she couldn't tell where Liu Miao went after going out.

Liu Fulai stomped on Niu Sannier's feet, and asked Liu Mudan to find Liu Sen and Liu Yao, who had gone out to play after lunch, and came back. To Liu Miao's shadow.

Liu Changqing and the others discussed it and divided the people into several groups, Liu Changqing and Liu Chuan, Liu Kui and Liu Changchun, Liu Ling and Liu Yu, and searched in several directions.

Liu Hai and Liu Xia didn't need to look for them, they hurried to Guanjiayao and asked the two families living by the roadside if they saw Liu Miao passing there.

Liu Changqing originally asked Liu Hai to follow him, let Liu Xia lead the cat to go home directly, and did not let him follow him to find someone, Liu Kui and Liu Chuan were unwilling, and Liu Changqing was almost 60 years old, so they were worried about him. Time to run in the mountains.

The two of them meant to let Liu Changqing and Liu Changchun go home, and the younger ones went out to look for them. Liu Changqing saw Liu Fulai's collapsed appearance and refused to agree. Liu Chuan simply went with his father.

Mao'er must follow Liu Xia, and no one objected, so Liu Xia took Mao'er's hand and Liu Hai and ran to Guanjiayao. After walking for more than ten years, he couldn't take a wrong step with his eyes closed.

They went to the two families to ask, but they didn't see Liu Miao.

Liu Xia and the others couldn't guess where Liu Miao was going, and they didn't dare to run around when it was dark. Liu Changqing specifically told them that no matter whether they asked or not, they had to go home first, and they were not allowed to turn around.

When Liu Xia and the others returned home, the dumplings for New Year's Eve had already been filled for several beats, and the women were waiting for them to come back and start cooking them!

A few people scolded Niu Sannier for trying to kill her. The New Year's Eve made the children so unwilling to stay at home, and then waited anxiously for Liu Changqing and the others to come back. What if something happened to the family members?

At 08:30, Liu Ling and Liu Yu brought Liu Miao back to their home with a broken leaf. Within half an hour, Liu Changqing and the others also came back: when they set out, they agreed that whoever found Liu Miao first would face her. Yelling in other directions.

At night in the mountains, the sound can be heard far away, and those who hear it can come back.

Liu Ling and the others found Liu Miao in the Niangniang Temple. Liu Miao only had a broken quilt, and it was very cold to sleep on the ground. He hugged a lot of dried leaves and piled them in the corner, curled up in the very, very small temple, yes Staring in a daze at the mud-bodied lady who was already mottled and invisible.

Before Liu Changqing and the others came back, Liu Miao resolutely carried the quilt back to his home. He felt that he was staying in Liu Xia's home. They didn't disgust him, but he himself was disgusting, especially the cat who worriedly asked him to sleep. When the ground was cold or not, Liu Miao felt extremely uncomfortable. He really couldn't understand why his mother was possessed by evil spirits and couldn't live without talking nonsense?

When Liu Miao walked to the door, she suddenly turned her head and said to Liu Xia: "Xiaoxia, you are so old, my mother's mouth, I can't help her when I'm a child, I'll accompany you here, right?" Stay!"

Liu Xia smiled and said: "Don't think too much about it, my child just needs to be good, I don't care what other people say now."

The whole family can finally eat dumplings with peace of mind, but just as Liu Xia picked up the bowl and didn't finish a dumpling, he heard a shrill cry from the west. The scream was very short, like an old hen suddenly bitten by a weasel in the middle of the night The sound made when he grabbed his neck.

Before Liu Changqing could speak, Liu Kui, Liu Chuan, Liu Yu, and Liu Ling had already put down their bowls and ran out. Although they only had one voice, they could all recognize Niu Sannier's voice.

They all thought that Liu Fulai's house was going to kill someone.

But within a few minutes, a few people came back talking and laughing lightly. Liu Kui picked up the bowl and ate the dumplings and said, "Niu Sannier may be talking nonsense again. Brother Fulai slapped her a few times, and she wanted to act and cry again." Mother, Liu Miao said, 'If you dare to make any more noise, I will leave now, and I will never come back for the rest of my life', she didn't dare to cry all of a sudden, hehe, if people are not noble, there is really no rule of law."

A large family listened to the radio and talked, and it was lively until after ten o'clock.

Liu Xia and the others went back to their cave dwelling and lay down under the quilt. The cat hugged Liu Xia's neck and said softly to him: "Uncle, don't be so beautiful, Niu Sannier is not from our family." , she can't control me, I'm not afraid of her."

Liu Xia has been feeling very sad since he heard Liu Miao and Niu Sanni's quarrel on the 28th, but he felt that he covered it up very well. When Liu Miao talked to him just now, he also acted very relaxed and open-minded. Mao'er has feelings, so he didn't know how to respond to Mao'er's words.

He patted the cat's back lightly and said: "It's okay baby, as long as you are good, my uncle really doesn't care what others say now."

On New Year's Eve, a heavy snow drove away the days of windy days. The New Year came under the sunshine, and the next few days were sunny. The rapidly melting snow did not make the weather colder. In the sunshine and residual snow, the spring The breath came quietly.

On the tenth day of the new year, Su Xiaohui and Liu Wei were about to start school. On the evening of the seventh day, Su Xiaohui was lying on the edge of the kang like an older child, worrying and sighing for the first time.

She doesn't want to start school. She has been relaxed and happy for the past ten days at home. Liu Yun and Liu Lei don't have to worry about her at all except for breastfeeding after 08:30 in the evening. There are so many people in the family, one hugs the other for a while What should she do when she returns to Rongze?

Sun Chang'e said: "Actually, the baby will be weaned at eleven months. Otherwise, you can leave the two babies at home. Your sister-in-law and I will take them with us. Usually, they will come out with a few extra eggs."

Su Xiaohui was reluctant to wean the child before he was one year old, and she didn't have to hold the child in front of her, so leaving her was like digging her heart.

Another point is that it is only natural for a mother-in-law to take care of her children. There is no such obligation between sisters-in-law. After a long time, will Xiumei be willing?

Xiumei was also worried about Su Xiaohui, but she felt that Su Xiaohui might only have these two children for the rest of her life, and of course she had to let the children have a few more years of breastfeeding, so she said: "Don't worry about these few months, don't wait for the summer vacation. They put them at home, and our mother and I will be able to watch them in the future, and the baby is weaned now, it's so pitiful."

When it was time to have lunch at noon on the eighth day of the eighth day, Liu Xia and the others were playing badminton in the yard after practicing calligraphy. Liu Wei saw a figure on the mountain road to the east.

Half an hour later, Sun Yufang, with yellow feet, was supported by Liu Yu and entered the house.

Because Liujialing is too far away, Liu Yu unilaterally visited Sunjiagou every year and festival, and agreed that Sun Yufang would not return the gift, so the Liu family didn't expect her to come, and the family didn't prepare, Xiumei He and Su Xiaohui were a little hectic for a while.

Liu Xia and the others were excited, they had never seen Liu Yu talking about Sun Yufang all day long.

Sun Chang'e's parents have both passed away, and the older brothers in the family have long been separated. At the beginning, Sun Chang'e wanted to marry into Liujialing's family, but they didn't agree. Her natal family broke up with her for many years, so the children in the family have never been to grandma since they were young. Home.

When Sun Chang'e's relationship with her natal family eased and began to communicate, the children seldom went with her.

Only Liu Kui went a little more in recent years because he wanted to send Sun Chang'e back, but Sun Yufang's father and Sun Chang'e were only cousins ​​who were about to release the fifth clothes, and they were not very close. Liu Kui had never seen Sun Yufang when he went. .

Sun Yufang was wearing the most popular horizontal striped suit jacket among young girls in Wangning nowadays, her hair was tied into a ponytail at the back, and she also wore a very light orange headband. She was very beautiful, standing with Su Xiaohui, carefully The dressed up looks rather rustic.

There were too many Liu family members, and Sun Yufang was a little restrained at first, but because there was a familiar Sun Chang'e sitting beside her asking questions, and she took the initiative to pick up Liu Yun and play with her, so she soon became less uncomfortable.

The whole family is very satisfied with Sun Yufang. The girl is very generous after getting to know her, and she speaks very honestly. The family specially asked her to talk about how she wanted to change the cave dwelling where she was going to get married. When I saw it, I thought that our house was just like those people living in Wangning. They were not big and dark. But now I see that our house is more spacious than my house. It doesn’t need to be changed. It's great."

The geological structure in the Wangning area is complex and diverse, and not all mountains are suitable for digging cave dwellings. There are no people living in cave dwellings in the Sunjiagou area.

Sun Yufang definitely couldn't go back that day. Sun Chang'e lived with her in the main room at night, and she left with Su Xiaohui, Liu Chuan, and Liu Wei the next morning.

When they left, it was already agreed that after returning home, she would find her husband at her house to see the wedding day, and Liu Yu would visit her house in a few days, and bring the situation back when the time came, so that he could prepare for it here.

Sun Chang'e specifically confessed that the best date is in the second half of the year, because after the expansion of the cave dwelling, it needs to dry for a period of time to live in.

The biggest thing in the Liu family is basically settled, and the whole family is very happy.

Mao'er is the happiest one, and Aunt Hua has already officially paid a visit. Doesn't this mean that the beautiful moment of bed pressing is just around the corner?

Sending Sun Yufang away and returning to the main room, the little guy climbed onto the kang and jumped up around the table, shouting while jumping: "press the bed, press the bed, press the bed, bring a house full of children and grandchildren, press the bed, press the bed, press the room!" Erlang..."

Liu Xia was afraid that he would fall, so he stood on the edge of the kang and took his hand to watch him jump around in circles, and added to his fun by the way: "Hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey..."

Liu Xia left home to return to school with Liu Ling and Liu Hai on the fourteenth day of the first lunar month. He was the last one to come back in the dormitory almost every time, and this time was no exception. However, what was waiting for him in the dormitory this time was In addition to the six people in his dormitory, there was also Che Jie.

Che Jie smiled happily when he saw him, which made Liu Xia feel that there was something good. Sure enough, Che Jie said: "Our school's final exam math questions are very difficult. Only 85 students scored above 84 in the science class. I got [-]." point."

In addition to his great progress in mathematics, Che Jie has really caught up in physics. He scored 93 points in the final exam. The Che family expressed their gratitude to Liu Xia. A meal was changed to the money: 50 yuan.

Gu Xiaoting's grades, Liu Xia and her family, are a little unclear. Mathematics is 49, physics and chemistry are 47 and [-] respectively. This score is better than the test scores before Liu Xia tutored her. It's hard to say that it must be the result of Liu Xia's guidance, or it may be that Gu Xiaoting just got it right.

It is normal for the test scores to fluctuate by five, six, seven or eight points, although in the past two years or so, Gu Xiaoting's mathematics, physics and chemistry have always been very stable and worse than each test.

"Everything may have an accident, right?" Gu Xiaoting's mother said, because Che's father tactfully hinted that they hoped that they could show Liu Xia a little bit.

Gu Pingshan didn't give Liu Xia a bonus, but judging from his act of finding Dad Che in advance and asking him to start making up lessons for Che Jie and Gu Xiaoting immediately after returning to school, he still prefers that Liu Xia's make-up lessons are effective.

Although going to school and working part-time is hard work, there is no doubt that it has greatly improved life. Therefore, even though it was very cold and sleet in Jiangcheng on the day Liu Xia came back, he still went home with Che Jie without hesitation. Make up lessons for him and Gu Xiaoting.

But Liu Xia has to prepare for the English CET-[-] exam, and he hopes to pass the exam no matter what, so he wants to reduce Che Jie and Gui Xiaoting's classes by one or two lessons a week. With Che Jie's current grades, Liu Xia thinks In fact, he no longer needs to tutor himself.

But as soon as he told Zhan Wei, Zhan Wei immediately shook his head a series of times: "Impossible, impossible, my uncle and Gu Pingshan originally wanted you to add another class, but I refused for you, and my parents also followed suit." My uncle said, you have worked hard enough now, you have to continue to take the sixth grade exam this semester, and don't let him make such excessive demands."

Zhang Fusheng also said: "Qi'er, for Che Jie and the others, it is now the final rush period of the college entrance examination. If you request to reduce classes at this time, they may think that you are deliberately showing off and want to increase class fees."

Zhan Wei quickly clarified: "That's not true. My aunt and her family have a very good impression of our Qi'er, and they won't think of him as this kind of person."

Mao Jianyong rubbed his chin and said, "Well, why didn't I think of it, this is the most suitable opportunity to propose a salary increase! Qi'er, you can consider the boss's suggestion."

Several people turned to Mao Jianyong together: "Profitable businessman!"

After hearing what Zhang Fusheng said, Liu Xia thought about it. At this time, he proposed to reduce the class, which seemed to be a suspicion of blackmailing him. He felt a little embarrassed, so he didn't mention it anymore. Compared with, it must be Che Jie and Gu Xiaoting's college entrance examination is much more important.

Liu Xia couldn't shirk his responsibility as a tutor, so he had to try his best to squeeze his own time. He selectively gave up the class time of a few courses he thought were easier, went to the foreign language department to audit, and then used his own corners With the help of Zhan Wei and his lecture notes, he studied these courses efficiently.

Maybe Zhan Wei told the Che family's parents about Liu Xia's thoughts, and the Che family and the Gu family had a better attitude towards Liu Xia. This made Liu Xia originally plan to discuss with them, hoping to temporarily suspend classes for a week before the exam. I can't even say what I want to concentrate on taking the exam.

There was a lot of rain in Jiangcheng, so Liu Xia bought a black umbrella and went to Che Jie's house four times a week to make up lessons on time.

One Sunday, when Liu Xia came back from his make-up class, it happened to be raining and sleet. Standing on the ferry, looking at the vast and misty Yangtze River in the rain and snow, he suddenly developed a delicate temperament like a poet. Feeling almost sad, after returning to school, he was excited and wrote a letter to Liu Ling full of youthful confusion and sorrow.

From the time Liu Xia was born, Liu Ling didn't know that he had such a sentimental physique. He was probably frightened by Liu Xia's pile of letters belonging to the series of idioms. Liu Ling's reply was full of self-blame and anger. Ashamed, I deeply reviewed the narrowness and inappropriateness of many concepts in the letter I wrote to Liu Xia when I was just admitted to college, and encouraged Liu Xia to spend my college time freely and happily with a more open and enthusiastic attitude of contemporary college students.

Liu Ling said: Yaoer, after leaving Liujialing in the past few years, I have seen the colorful world, and then I realized that it was very short-sighted and narrow-minded that I asked you to spend all your time studying after you went to university.

Due to my limited experience, I only know that I can learn a lot of useful knowledge from books, but I have forgotten where the knowledge originally came from. If all people are like what I ask of you, they will only know Huddled up in a small room and read a book, I am afraid we will have no books to read now.

Knowledge comes from the vast world. It is the natural laws and perceptions of the world discovered by the predecessors in the process of walking the world. They summarized and sorted these into the books we see now.

Throughout the ages, I am afraid that no scientist sat in the room and concentrated on reading, and then made a great invention behind closed doors. The brilliant ideas of the sages certainly did not form by sitting in the room every day.

So I think, on the premise of completing your own studies, taking more time to go out of the campus with your friends, enjoying freedom and happiness in nature, and enriching your mind and knowledge in the real world is the most suitable for you now. way of living and learning.

It has been ten days since Liu Xia received Liu Ling's letter, and the youthful feelings that came unexpectedly like a convulsion that day have long been forgotten by him. After reading Liu Ling's letter, he somewhat recalled something he wrote. The content of the letter, as if pulling his own hair, made a sigh: "I...Damn it!"

He felt Liu Ling's worry, so he immediately replied a letter. This letter resumed his usual writing style. Every sentence contained nothing but clean and clear subject, predicate and object. The content of the letter was also very simple. Honestly told Liu Ling that he was just full and wanted to pretend to be deep that day, and now he is living a very happy and free life. As for enriching knowledge and experience from the real world, he said:

"A few bosses in our dormitory can form a real world. I can learn a lot of knowledge from them. I listen to Yun Jian's complaints about my not practicing break dancing every day, and listen to Zhang Fusheng's writings to Mrs. Qiao. This kind of courtship letter, listening to Mao Jianyong talk about his next five-year money-making plan, I think this can test my heart."

Liu Ling felt much more relaxed after receiving his letter, and he said to Chen Zhenbei, who was serving as a specially invited temporary military skills instructor at their school: "Let me just say, my youngest son must have been stimulated by some accident that day." Be vulnerable for a while, and you can quickly return to normal without other people worrying about yourself, my family's young son's mental quality is definitely not inferior to your best fighter."

Chen Zhenbei said: "The best fighter under me is standing right in front of me. He has just gone through intensive dynamic shooting training in extreme terrain, and he is still showing off to me how awesome his dear brother is. Say, Yao’er is already an adult, right? You don’t have to write a letter as soon as you receive his letter like a child, do you?”

Liu Ling asked: "I don't feel it myself. How can you tell that I am dizzy? Let alone, he is my youngest brother even at the age of 80. I should reply to him in time. Company commander, do you have any opinions?" ?”

Chen Zhenbei was invited to serve as a temporary instructor for only one week, and he had already returned to the army before Liu Xia's next reply letter, otherwise Liu Xia might have to see Chen Zhenbei's sentence behind Liu Lingxin's " Do you think your fifth brother is not busy enough?"

Liu Xia, who was so cold and worried about his youth, still lives a very normal university life for him. Now he devotes most of his spare time to English. Every day with Zhan Wei, he must concentrate on learning English for at least two hours. At the same time, he still maintains the habit of going to the foreign language department to take classes.

One day at the beginning of April, he saw the announced grade examination results on the blackboard of his class: He and Zhan Wei had both passed the sixth grade; Hei Deqing, Mao Jianyong, and Sha Yonghe had passed the fourth grade.

"Oh——" Heideqing raised his arms and cheered: "This is worthy of celebration, it must be celebrated, tell me, which hotel do you want to eat, I will treat you, and you can order whatever you want."

"How about we join hands?" Mao Jianyong asked Hei Deqing tentatively.

Yun Jian and Zhan Wei said at the same time: "It's a good idea, you two go back to each other once, you owed us that meal at the beginning of school, it's been such a long time, and I haven't asked you for interest yet!"

Mao Jianyong brought a hundred videotapes when he started school in winter vacation, all of which were Oscar-winning movies with English original sound. His selling point is that they have not been edited by relevant domestic departments.

The video tape costs 20 yuan a box. Because the University of Surveying and Mapping does not provide video recorders for students, Mao Jianyong has no way to prove the real existence of the selling point he said. Zhan Wei advised him to ask Han Tong for help.

Han Tong first took two boxes back to watch by himself. Three days later, he brought 2000 yuan to Mao Jianyong, and bought Mao Jianyong's large bag with the video tapes.

Mao Jianyong counted the money and said to Liu Xia and the others: "Mr. Han may earn more than me. I really can't see that Mr. Han has a decent face, but he is actually quite hot inside."

Since all members of 219 except himself felt that part of the money he earned should be shared, Mao Jianyong had no choice but to invite everyone to the Hongbinlou again.

Hei Deqing took advantage of Sunday noon to invite him to the most famous Jiangcheng Hotel in the city center. This time, it was finally Liu Xia's turn to watch Yun Jian and his jokes: Except for Mao Jianyong, the five people looked at the printed carpet in the luxurious private room Don't dare to step on it.

Liu Xia had experienced that once at Zeng Huaichen's wedding, so he didn't show his timidity this time.

Liu Xia feels that the decoration of the big hotel is really beautiful, and the dishes are really delicately arranged, but the taste is really no different from that of a small restaurant.

Later, Liu Xia admitted that although he was prepared in his heart, he was quite disappointed when he really knew that he had not passed the exam. This mood affected his appetite that day.

The grass grows and the warbler flies to the April sky.

April in Jiangcheng is no longer a pleasant spring breeze, but a taste of summer.

Liu Xia received a letter from his family. In the letter, Liu Kui said that Liu Yun and Liu Lei were sent home by Liu Chuan and Su Xiaohui this Sunday. The two little ones were already one year old and weaned. Let grandparents take it in their hometown.

There is also a very important piece of good news. Liu Chuan mentioned the deputy captain of the criminal police team. The news was before the Spring Festival, but it was officially announced three days ago.

Liu Xia clenched his fists and said in his heart: I knew the third brother was the most capable.

Mao'er's recent letters have slowly become longer.

He said that he scored 85 points in Chinese and [-] points in composition in the midterm exam. He scored [-] points the same as in the monthly exam; he still scored [-] points in mathematics, ranking first in the grade.

The Chinese teacher said to him, it's a pity, it's useless to score more than 85 in both subjects this time, and no certificate will be issued for the midterm exam.

The cat said: I don't care about the certificates issued by my school. They are not as good-looking as the ones you made for me.

For Liu Yun and Liu Lei, Mao’er’s description is: My younger brother can climb very fast, but Xiao Lei always crawls backwards. I put the car far in front of him. He looks at it and turns around. I pointed my butt at the car, and it quickly crawled over. I let the car run farther away, and then pointed my butt at it, but it quickly crawled over again.

Xiaoyun doesn't like steamed elm money and sophora japonica, every time grandma feeds him, he spits it out, and he doesn't eat the delicious fried food that grandma cooks for him, only meat, grandma said he was born by a tiger.

Finally, Maoer wrote: Uncle, today is 73 days before your holiday, why does time pass so slowly when you are not at home?I can miss you, do you miss me?

Liu Xia said: Uncle can miss you too, I wish I could turn this last year into one day, and I will never ask you to wait for my uncle like this every day again.

The incident a year ago made Liu Xia clearly aware of how naive he thought that the villagers would let go of their prejudices against Maoer just because the three of their brothers were admitted to college. If those people could face the reality squarely, they would not There is such a prejudice against cats.

Knowing this, Liu Xia's goal became clearer.

The time has entered May, and the day of the grading test is getting closer and closer. When the whole campus or the colleges and universities in China is brewing a storm that will shock the world, Liu Xia still shuttles between classrooms on the campus and on both sides of the Yangtze River every day, Lived his busy and fulfilling college time.

He squeezed time to transcribe several publicity drafts for the student union, so he knew that there would be a huge student union in the near future.
