all the way
Chapter 97
The next morning, no matter how Maoer insisted, Liu Xia still drove him to school, and only turned around after watching him enter the classroom.
Mao'er is four or five years younger than his classmates, and he is the last in the class, sitting in the middle of the first row he dislikes the most.
He didn't go to his seat when he entered the classroom, but leaned on the window and watched Liu Xia leave on his bike, then ran out immediately and found Liu Rui's class one (1).
Because Liu Wei and Su Xiaohui will arrive at school at 05:30 in the morning, Liu Rui wakes up early every morning. He came to school earlier than Maoer yesterday and today.
The cat beckoned Liu Rui out, and said to him: "Brother Rui, I have something to discuss with you. I won't go with you to our third uncle's for dinner at noon. I'll go home and bring me something after you finish eating." One serving, I will eat it after I come to school, is it right?"
Liu Rui didn't understand: "Why? Wouldn't the meal be cold? It won't taste good if it's cold. Besides, it's only so long at noon, and it's just over one o'clock when we both come back after eating. We are nervous about doing homework." , you have to go home again, what are you doing, cat?"
The cat said: "We go to school early in the morning, and my uncle and I will cook and eat quickly when we come together, and then my uncle will send me over. I am nervous and have no time for housekeeping;
In the evening, my uncle and I went back too late. We both rushed hard. It was almost ten o’clock after I finished my homework. It was past eleven o’clock after my uncle finished his calculations.
My uncle is clean, and I don’t want to make my family picky. I want to go home at noon and mop the floor again; what’s more, my uncle and I both come home late, and we can’t make dinner in the evening. If my uncle After eating it on the street every day, it's time to get angry again.
When I go back at noon, I can make the soup first, then wash the vegetables and put them aside. In the evening, I can chop and stir-fry vegetables as soon as I go back, so my uncle doesn’t have to eat on the street.
Brother Xiaorui, are you right? "
Liu Rui wrinkled her face and thought for a while: "Then you are so nervous, boy, my uncle should feel distressed when he sees it."
Listening to Liu Rui's intention to agree, the cat said happily, "It's okay, I'm not nervous at all; I'm rich, so I'll buy you a lunch box after school at noon today, and then you and my third uncle will have dinner. I go home."
Mao'er's calculation was very good, but he didn't pass the test here in Yanagawa.
When Liu Chuan came to pick them up in the car at noon, Mao'er gave Liu Chuan a headache when he said his plan: "If you run so nervously every day, and you can't eat well, do you think your uncle is still alive?" Can you work hard?
From now on, go to the Public Security Bureau to have dinner obediently at noon, and the sanitation at home will be hit by a good cleaning on Sunday. After that, the weather will gradually get colder. You and your uncle can only cook once in the morning, make more, and keep half, and only come back at night It can be eaten after a little heat, so you two don't have to eat dinner on the street every day. "
Mao'er thought about it, cleaning once a week is not enough, but cooking makes sense. Isn't Wan Jianye just frying the evening dishes together at noon?
As for hygiene and other things, Maoer decided to make a better plan. Now that he is confronting third uncle face to face, there must be no good fruit. Anyway, third uncle will go to Yuancheng in three or four days.
But the cat didn't wait until noon when the good news came.
At [-]:[-], Mao'er was in the third class. As soon as he left the classroom, he saw Liu Hai standing outside in the shade of a tree. He cheered and ran over. Angrily broke away: "I'm already in the second year of junior high school, I'm an adult, don't spin me around anymore, our classmates will laugh at me."
Liu Hai scratched his nose: "Just you? Are you still an adult? Cut, little lord of the pudding order, give me the key quickly. You can continue to enjoy the high-level service provided by the artist at noon today."
The cat happily took off the key hanging around his neck: "I want to eat fried noodles with beans, you can make more sauce and save some for my uncle, when he comes back at night, I will order some noodles for him;
Also, tomorrow I want to eat braised pork, you can make more..."
"Save some for my uncle so he can come back to eat at night," Liu Hai interrupted him imitating a cat's tone, and then made an indignant look: "I remember, little white-eyed wolf, no matter how good Uncle Six is to you, you can only eat it." Miss your uncle alone, don't you?"
The cat stared at him and snubbed.
Liu Hai tossed the key in his hand: "It's almost eleven o'clock, I have to go shopping quickly, at noon, you can ask Third Uncle and Xiao Rui to go back to have dinner with you."
Mao'er suddenly saw the small suitcase behind Liu Hai, and felt a little uncomfortable, and suddenly became a little wilted: "Uncle Liu, are you leaving?"
Liu Hai nodded, and rubbed his head: "No, that's why Uncle Liu came early and cooked for you for a few days, so that Uncle Liu won't forget about me when he walks away."
Mao'er said dully, "No way! Actually, I know how good Uncle Liu is."
At noon, Mao'er had a lively meal of fried noodles with Liu Chuan and Liu Rui at his favorite home.
Liu Hai really made a lot of fried sauce, not only for Liu Xia, but also asked Liu Chuan to bring back a big bowl, which Su Xiaohui and Liu Wei can eat tomorrow morning.
Liu Chuan has asked someone to book a ticket for Liu Hai. On the evening of No. 30, when Liu Chuan went to Yuancheng Police Academy to report for duty on No. 30, Liu Hai walked with him.
When Liu Hai heard about Liu Chuan going to the police academy for advanced studies, he hugged him happily: "Third brother, that's all right, advanced studies are also considered diplomas, and you won't always be crushed by the police academy graduates whenever you get promoted after you come back. caught."
Liu Rui was eating, but her eyes were fixed on the TV, she couldn't take her eyes off it.
Maoer sat beside him and took the opportunity to do his political and ideological work: "Brother Rui, look, color TV is more beautiful than black and white, right? If you come and live here, you can watch it every day, and I will finish writing it at night." For homework, I also watched an interesting TV series, Hong Kong, and martial arts movies, which are so beautiful."
Liu Chuan took the cat off the bed with a bowl, and put it on the small chair beside the dining table: "You are so loyal, it has been so many days, and your uncle hasn't left home, and you still don't forget his brother Here is a mission for you!"
When Liu Xia came back at night, he saw the light from the window of his house from afar. He came back later today than yesterday, thinking that the cat had already arrived home, so he yelled downstairs: "Liu An , Uncle is back."
Immediately two heads popped out from the corridor on the second floor, Liu Hai and Mao'er called at the same time: "Uncle (Yao'er), you are back? Hurry up and eat."
Liu Xia laughed and ran upstairs, and Yue Desheng behind him said to Zhang Yuanchao and the others: "This kid is really nice. I thought he would complain like the people in the Mining Bureau when he went to work in the mountains for the first time. Who knew that not only did he not complain, but he was also full of energy every day."
Zhang Yuanchao said: "It's fresh at the beginning, but after three months, it's time to get bored and skinny. By then, I won't have this kind of energy."
Liu Xia entered the room with the little Laipi hanging around his neck. The first thing he saw was a large bowl of mung bean soup and a plate covered by the bowl.
The cat jumped off him and went to pick up the bowl: "Hey, uncle, this is the stir-fried beans with tomatoes I just made for you. I covered it first in case you came back late."
Liu Hai said outside: "Yaoer, you drink mung bean soup first, and the artistic fried noodles with rich Liu's characteristics will be ready soon, so stay tuned."
Mao'er also promoted for Liu Hai: "Uncle Six's noodles with fried sauce today are very delicious. It's not minced meat, but shredded pork. It's really enjoyable to eat."
Liu Xia happily drank half a bowl of rock sugar and mung bean soup first, and then took a big mouthful of beans: "Yeah, it's delicious, my dear cat, your cooking is getting better and better." Saying this, he ran into the bathroom to wash his face.
When he came out after washing his face, Liu Hai had already mixed the noodles.
Liu Xia only took one mouthful, then gave Liu Hai a thumbs up, and finally ate a ditch full of flat, comfortably leaning against the wall and stretching his legs to touch his stomach: "Why is it so delicious? Ah——, Sixth Brother , if you don’t leave, who will make us such delicious fried noodles when you leave—”
Mao'er raised his head: "I, I have learned from Uncle, and I will definitely cook better than Uncle Six."
As he spoke, he lowered his head again and looked at Liu Xia's stomach strangely: "Uncle, how did you get that scar on your stomach? Today your belly is round, and it's all white."
Liu Xia sat up straight and pulled down his sweatshirt to cover his stomach, and said casually: "It's just that you sneaked up to the mulberry tree that fell upside down on the cliff to get mulberries. Your grandpa saw it, ran away in a hurry, and hung it on the branch in a panic. Haven't I told you several times!"
The cat lifted the sweater again and looked at it and said: "Shouldn't the branch hang in a long way? Why are you bent? It looks like a crescent moon."
Liu Hai cleaned up the bowls and chopsticks and said, "Why is your uncle a top student at a key university? He uses a technical method of hanging up, and ordinary people can't do it like that. Most people hang out like you said, straight , a long way, who can hang a beautiful crescent moon!"
Liu Xia stood up and dragged him to the open space in front of the TV with the cat under one arm: "Accompany my uncle to raise his legs three hundred times on the spot, my uncle has to digest, or his stomach will collapse. "
Mao'er and Liu Xia stood side by side one foot apart, raised their arms, and raised their left leg high on the spot: "Get ready—one, two, three, four, two, two, three, four, three, two, three, four..."
Holding the bowl and plate, Liu Hai turned his buttocks as far as possible in a circle with the largest diameter: "It should be like this, like this, you know? Make your stomach twist, it's said that your stomach will sag like that."
Liu Xia and Mao'er stopped at the same time and asked, "Really?"
Liu Hai walked into the kitchen: "It is said, according to medical experts."
Mao'er and Liu Xia glanced at each other, thrust their hips to the right at the same time, and then imitated Liu Hai's way and turned in a big circle: "One——, two—, three—, four—"
Liu Hai will be leaving in two days, so when Mao'er finished his homework, Liu Xia also packed up his things and temporarily ended today's work. The three of them lay on the ground and talked. They didn't even go home, so Liu Hai told them about the family affairs.
The previous two rains were a bit heavy, and about half of the crops were washed away;
The autumn cucumbers and tomatoes that Xiumei planted by the river were gone;
The cabbage was almost eaten by bugs overnight;
But the plum beans and pumpkins planted on the side of the yard are growing very well, and the two rows of green onions are also good. With the wild vegetables that are dried in spring and other vegetables that Liu Kui bought in Wangning, there is no need to worry about eating vegetables at home.
The elder brother Liu Kui only went to work for 16 days this month because of power outages. He earned less than 20 yuan, but he went to Fujiazhuang for more than [-] days.
Because he didn't know when the electricity would come on, he had to go to Fujiazhuang to see it in a few days. He went several times, but the electricity still didn't come.
The business of Ma Deying's factory is very good. Like Liu Xia, Liu Yu hasn't been home for almost a month. He anticipated this situation when he left home, and prepared the gift he was going to give Liu Ling in advance. When I asked Liu Hai to leave, it was a bag of almonds, which Liu Yu picked out one by one.
The wild almonds in Fengxi Mountain are relatively small, but they are not bitter and have a slightly fragrant aftertaste. Liu Ling's favorite snacks are very few, and the almonds that have been slightly soaked in salt water and then fried are counted as one.
But the work of smashing almond kernels is very annoying. If you smash one by one, you can easily smash the almonds if you don't master the strength. It takes a long time to smash half a bowl.
The almonds that the family used to eat were all smashed by Liu Changchun when he was free. Liu Yu, who has an active personality, would rather go hoeing and weeding than sitting in the shade of a tree and smashing apricot pits and walnuts.
But after going to Kyoto to eat the almonds there once, Liu Yu often sits there and smashes almonds when he comes back, and Liu Hai or Liu Ling will take them away when they return to Kyoto.
Sun Yufang has been married for more than a year and has not conceived. Her family didn't think anything of it, but she herself was a little anxious. Some people in the village said that she started gossiping, and the words were wicked and ugly.
After hearing what Aunt Changxing said, Xiumei took a shoe sole to the gate of the primary school, chatted with a group of women in Zhangjiabao for a long time, pointed at Sang and scolded Huai with a smile, and gave the gossip women a blow:
Control their own mouths, the girls of the Liu family don't cause trouble, but if someone bullies them, they are not afraid of trouble. There are only people who don't want to do things like swearing, and there are no people who don't know how to do them.
Liu Xin started to practice calligraphy now, but he had to sit on the kang every day to practice, otherwise he wouldn't be able to write a single word, Liu Yun and Liu Lei would happily run over to make trouble whenever they saw him writing.
The small belly wrap with the five-poison pattern that Liu Xia bought for the two of them was destroyed, and the two robbed Liu Xin's ink cartridge, and one of them got ink all over his body.
The radio that Liu Yu asked Liu Miao to bring back to Liu Changchun has not been listened to for a week, and now it has become a bunch of small parts. Liu Lei likes it very much, and has to study it for a while every day. He would cry and roll around for anyone to see when he touched the bunch of gadgets.
A few days ago, Liu Yun touched a wheat season bird that had just molted, and put it in his mouth directly. Cooked a rabbit liver, and made a wish to him, the next time there is sauced beef, let him eat the same big piece as the adults, and he will spit out the Maiji bird.
As a result, Liu Lei quit, and he was jumping around, and he must eat rabbit liver, and he wanted to eat beef with sauce as big as a tree bump in the yard.
But the rabbit livers at home had already been eaten by Liu Rui, who had a bad stomach, and that was the only one left. Finally, Liu Kui went to Liu Fulai's house to get two rabbit livers, and then coaxed the little Hades to live.
So Liu Changqing asked Liu Hai to tell Liu Xia that he must buy some sauced beef next time he goes home, and the ones as big as tree bumps are not needed.
The cat said: "Xiaoyun is very courageous. Last time when you were not back, he pinched a very long caterpillar on a tomato and asked his mother to fry it for him. Uncle said that he couldn't eat it even if it was fried." , he wanted to eat it raw, so the uncle hurriedly asked his mother to cook rabbit meat for him.
There are so many dried rabbits in our family, let them eat them all, oh, and Xiao Xin, no matter how delicious they are, they let Xiao Xin eat them, but when I told Brother Xiaorui that I wanted to eat them, he The two hugged and ran into the arms of grandma and mother, and said nothing to us. "
Liu Hai flicked Mao'er's head across Liu Xia: "It's good enough for them to see that you didn't run away, and give you something delicious? You put them on a persimmon tree branch, and you won't let them go for so long. They come down, your uncle doesn't know yet, does he?"
Liu Xia looked at the cat.
The cat said innocently: "It's them who are so annoying. Grandpa went to see grandpa. Uncle and mother went to hoe the ground. Grandma was cooking. Brother Xiaorui and I asked me to watch them. Brother Xiaorui and I didn’t let me write a single word. As soon as we spread out the homework, they grabbed it, so I had to coax them to sit on the persimmon tree..."
"And then?" Liu Xia asked.
"Then, then, the two of them hugged a tree branch, and I tied them to it with a rope. It wasn't tight, but it was tied around the armpit to prevent them from falling..."
Liu Hai said: "Yaoer, you can't think of it, my elder brother said that those two guys were so scared that they didn't dare to move, but they didn't cry or cry, they just hugged the branches hard, and my elder brother gave them to me when I came back." Get it down.
They didn't realize they were afraid until they came down, and wept bitterly. Our mother thought they must have been frightened, so she called them souls for three days in a row. "
Liu Xia asked Mao'er: "If you say tie them up, they will let you tie them up?"
The cat said: "I didn't say tie them, I went up to the tree first and asked Brother Xiaorui to tie me there, and they jumped and screamed anxiously, insisting on going up to let them be tied."
Liu Hai said: "The cat just saw the virtues of those two guys, and didn't dare to see the monkey picking wheat, so it had to follow suit, deliberately leading them to take the bait."
Liu Xia nodded the cat's nose: "I always thought you were obedient and obedient, but who knew you worked harder than anyone else."
The cat immediately turned around and wrapped around Liu Xia like an octopus: "I'm just obedient and obedient, uncle! Look at how obedient I am, hehe, I'm the most obedient and obedient."
Liu Xia didn't blame Mao'er for this, not because he was too used to Mao'er, this seems outrageous thing, in fact Liu Changqing did it decades ago, but Liu Xia doesn't remember anyone mentioning this to Mao'er thing.
Liu Kui had a wild temper when he was a child. He didn't know the danger when he climbed mountains. He dared to climb anywhere. He always climbed to the highest branches when he climbed trees. .
On a windy day, Liu Changqing once again discovered that Liu Kui's "Monkey Touching Persimmon" had climbed particularly high, so he took him to the big pear tree that grew crookedly on the edge of the ditch.
The big pear tree is tall and grows obliquely outwards, with a deep ditch underneath.
Liu Changqing asked Liu Kui to stand alone on a branch that protruded farthest. He stood on the lower branch and tied a strong rope around Liu Kui's ankle to connect it to the main trunk of the big pear tree. together, then left.
Liu Kui stood alone on the swaying tree branch blown by the strong wind for a long time.
Liu Changchun didn't see Liu Kui when he was eating, but Liu Changqing found out that he was tied to the tree when he asked Liu Changqing, so he ran to untie the rope for him. At that time, Liu Kui's arms were already stiff.
Liu Kui didn't get scared out of anything because of this, but when he climbed the tree to play again later, he really stopped climbing on the branches that were too tall and too thin.
Facts have proved that Liu Yun and Liu Lei's brains are also strong enough. Although they cried after they got down, they didn't delay eating and drinking at all, and they didn't see any psychological shadow. Playing, or eager to jump up.
The cat was the first to fall asleep.
Liu Hai listened to him not talking for a long time, breathing evenly, and then said to Liu Xia: "You don't let our family tell the cat how you got that scar on your stomach, it seems right, because you are now Going to work outside every day, he feels that it was because he was ignorant and nonsensical when he was a child that he made you sign up for a bad major, and he felt extremely guilty. If he knew that your stomach was almost pierced in order to get him milk, He wasn't sure how uncomfortable it would be.
Alas, Yaoer, I used to worry all day long, afraid that you would pamper him and spoil him since he was a child, and that he would be used to being very willful and ignorant when he grows up. Thinking that our cat is a bit skinny, it is really sensible. "
Liu Xia was not very happy because of this: "He is not yet ten years old, so why is he so sensible? I especially want him to be like other children who don't understand anything, only know how to play, and don't think about anything when they are full. Just be happy tonight."
Liu Hai turned over and lay there with his chin propped: "Sometimes I think it's not beautiful to be an adult. Look at my uncle and my mother. When we were young, they worried all day long that we lacked food and clothing, and we would never grow up." Big; now that we are all grown up, have passed the college entrance examination, and can earn money, they still worry about it every day.
The fourth brother just got married and settled down, and they started to worry about the fifth brother again. Our mother said that the fifth brother is 25 and six, and if he doesn’t look for him, he will be too old. She told me to go back and tell the fifth brother that this military academy has also graduated , put aside everything else, quickly find a good girl to fall in love with and get married is a serious matter. "
Liu Xia laughed: "Our mother and the others don't know how to count, our fifth brother is still more than a month away from turning 24, right? How can we let them count as 26?"
Liu Hai also smiled: "Well, my mother counted for me as 24, but there was Brother Wu in front of me, so she didn't urge me to find a girl to marry."
Liu Hai clasped his hands together and prayed to the sky a few times: "Bodhisattva, bless the Buddha, bless my fifth brother, don't marry too early. As soon as he gets married, I should tell my mother to follow him. My goal is to be at least 30 years old. Determined not to get married.
The outside world is so big and beautiful, and having a child in wedlock is over too early, and I can't go anywhere, just stay at home and wait to see the child. "
Liu Xia also turned over and lay on his stomach, and said yearningly: "That's right, the outside world is so big and beautiful, I thought I would be able to run around the world to see the scenery as soon as I got to work, but unexpectedly, I crawled back to our I went to work in this ravine.
I have to make a good plan. I can't let Maoer report the wrong major like me in the future. I have to let Maoer report a good major, a major that is easy to go abroad.
Our unit has a lot of bonuses. I will work hard and save more money so that he can study abroad in the future. I will see it all over the world. In the end, I can live wherever it is good, even abroad. When he settles abroad, I will call him my uncle. Our mother and the others also went abroad to have a look. "
Liu Hai looked at Liu Xia hesitantly and excitedly: "Yao'er, there is something I have been holding back for so many days, but I dare not say a word. I am afraid that if it fails in the end, you will say that I am bragging and laugh at me." .”
Liu Xia said: "How can I really laugh at you? If it's really a good thing, it turns out to be dirty and unsuccessful. Our family must try to comfort you. No one would laugh at you. What's the matter, Sixth Brother?"
"Uncle Zeng asked me if I wanted to study abroad for a few years..."
"What?" Liu Xia almost sat up, the cat next to him moved, trying to wake up, he quickly stretched out his hand to pat him, rubbed his chin on his forehead, and the cat fell asleep again.
Liu Xia pressed his voice and asked Liu Hai: "Really? Uncle Zeng really wants you to go abroad?"
Liu Hai nodded: "Well, I said that what I study is Chinese painting, not oil painting, so why go abroad?
Uncle Zeng said that painting is not only about the skills of lines, colors, and light and shade. Of course, those skills are very important, but when the skills reach a certain level, the realm is the most important. None of the students who come out of the Academy of Fine Arts lack skills , but how many became famous and married?
He said that the realm is the state of mind, or the mind and vision. When the mind is broad and the vision is broadened, the things drawn will not be too rigid in skills, and will not deliberately try to express something profound, but in the end it will always be The real shallowness is exposed.
He said that when the state of mind is reached, a flower or a leaf, no matter how small a painting, can express a great state.
He said that every painting method and style has its own special features, and many techniques and expressive techniques of oil painting are equally applicable to traditional Chinese painting.
He wanted me to go to France or England, asked my opinion, and asked me to go back to him after the summer vacation and tell him that I had been thinking about it for so many days, but I didn't know what to do.
Because I heard that if it is not a government-sponsored study abroad, the security deposit alone will cost hundreds of thousands. How can our family have as much money as yours? Someone helped me to go abroad, but they couldn't give me any money.
But I don't want to ask Uncle Zeng to take the money. Uncle Zeng lived in our house for a few years, and he didn't owe us a debt. Why should he pay so much money? "
Liu Xia understood, indeed, a few hundred thousand is really an unimaginable figure for their family, even if the family does not eat or drink for 100 years, they will not be able to raise this much money.
As for Zeng Guangtong, Liu Xia and Liu Hai have the same thoughts. Zeng Guangtong's care for their family has exceeded the obligation of friends. Even the closest family members can only be like this. They should not accept him anymore. more help.
But he really hoped that Liu Hai could study abroad, even if it wasn't for studying abroad, it would be good to just go abroad and see the wider world outside.
And he could see that Liu Hai actually wanted to study abroad very much.
Liu Xia lay on the mat worryingly: "Then what should I do, brother six? It's too late for me to earn money now. Even if I can get a bonus of 500 yuan every month, it will take decades to save up to tens of dollars." Wan, you will be an old man by then!"
Liu Hai knocked his chin on the ground: "Fifth brother said the same thing! It's okay, I'm just saying, how can you be greedy? I've already gone to such a good university in Kyoto, if I want to compare myself with others, If you want to go abroad again, who will you be?
We are living better than many people now, in fact, I am very satisfied. "
Liu Xia nodded: "Me too, I know how to make money, and I even picked up Mao'er. If Mao'er can be admitted to university and have a quiet and stable job, if we can find a good job for eldest brother again, no If I suffer so much and earn more money, I won’t think about anything in my life.”
Liu Hai said: "Well, I was walking on the road with my eldest brother this morning, thinking about it. When can we ask our eldest brother to eat commercial food, it will be great. Our uncle and mother will definitely be happy."
Liu Xia suddenly turned over, held his forehead and called: "But, but Sixth Brother, I still want to ask you to go abroad, I still think it will be a pity if you don't go out!"
……
When Liu Xia woke up in the morning, he felt something was wrong, the room was darker than usual, and the curtains were drawn.
He just remembered that Liu Hai walked in gently from the outside: "Don't move, you sleep a little longer, baby, I put the alarm clock on, it's only five o'clock, it's dark at night, I'll make dinner this morning It’s all done, it’s not too late for you two to get up and eat at [-]:[-].”
Liu Xia looked at Mao'er. Mao'er had one leg on him, with his head stuck in his right armpit, still soundly asleep.
He said to Liu Hai: "Then why did you get up so early?"
Liu Hai said: "I don't think buns are old enough. I'll go to Gudu Road to buy some deep-fried dough sticks and fried buns. You two can go to sleep. I'm fine during the day. I can sleep for a day after you leave."
Liu Xia and Mao'er really didn't get up until [-]:[-]. After eating, Liu Hai sent Mao'er to school, and Liu Xia took a car to Sandaohe.
When he came back in the evening, Liu Hai told him that Liu Chuan went back to Liujialing's house in the afternoon and bought a new radio and a few catties of sauced beef. Liu Hai pointed to a plate on the table: "Here, my third brother came up and cut it It takes only one plate to go."
As soon as Mao'er heard that Liu Chuan had returned to Liujialing, he jumped up and made a fuss with Liu Xia: "Uncle, let's go back this week too. I miss grandma and grandpa. If I don't go back, they should forget about me."
Liu Xia was covered in drops of water, the cat was hanging around his neck, and the undershirt was wet immediately, Liu Xia patted his buttocks: "Go down first, be good, let my uncle wipe it and put on the pants first; don't worry, you Grandma and the others have forgotten who they are, and they can't forget you, a naughty bastard."
Liu Xia enjoyed it comfortably for two days. When he came back on the third day, the windows were dark. He entered the room and turned on the light, and saw the piece of paper pressed on the TV at a glance.
Younger:
My third brother and I took the car together. The porridge and vegetables are enough for you and the cat to eat twice. You two can sleep in for a little sleep tomorrow morning.
The red flower pot is covered with fried sauce. It’s still a little hot now. I’m afraid it will go bad after a long time. The specially made one is a bit salty. You and the cat can eat it for at least three days.
There is braised pork in the small aluminum pot. The cat ate a meal at noon today, but it was not satisfying. I thought it was a disadvantage for you to skip a meal, so I made another small pot for you to keep;
If you can't finish a meal, you must steam it again. After steaming, put it in the pot. Don't lift the lid or move it, so it won't break easily.
I often take the train and arrive in one night, don't worry, I will write to you as soon as I arrive in Kyoto.
Six brothers
Liu Xia leaned on the table, looked around the room, slowly folded the paper, opened the drawer, and put it in a diary.
On the dining table was a bowl of mung bean soup and a plate held in a small basin. He lifted the small basin to reveal the bright green stir-fried plum beans underneath.
He picked up the bowl and drank a big mouthful of mung bean soup. The mung bean soup boiled like thin bean paste and added rock sugar had a touch of sweetness and coolness, and it went straight to the bottom of his heart.
Mao'er is four or five years younger than his classmates, and he is the last in the class, sitting in the middle of the first row he dislikes the most.
He didn't go to his seat when he entered the classroom, but leaned on the window and watched Liu Xia leave on his bike, then ran out immediately and found Liu Rui's class one (1).
Because Liu Wei and Su Xiaohui will arrive at school at 05:30 in the morning, Liu Rui wakes up early every morning. He came to school earlier than Maoer yesterday and today.
The cat beckoned Liu Rui out, and said to him: "Brother Rui, I have something to discuss with you. I won't go with you to our third uncle's for dinner at noon. I'll go home and bring me something after you finish eating." One serving, I will eat it after I come to school, is it right?"
Liu Rui didn't understand: "Why? Wouldn't the meal be cold? It won't taste good if it's cold. Besides, it's only so long at noon, and it's just over one o'clock when we both come back after eating. We are nervous about doing homework." , you have to go home again, what are you doing, cat?"
The cat said: "We go to school early in the morning, and my uncle and I will cook and eat quickly when we come together, and then my uncle will send me over. I am nervous and have no time for housekeeping;
In the evening, my uncle and I went back too late. We both rushed hard. It was almost ten o’clock after I finished my homework. It was past eleven o’clock after my uncle finished his calculations.
My uncle is clean, and I don’t want to make my family picky. I want to go home at noon and mop the floor again; what’s more, my uncle and I both come home late, and we can’t make dinner in the evening. If my uncle After eating it on the street every day, it's time to get angry again.
When I go back at noon, I can make the soup first, then wash the vegetables and put them aside. In the evening, I can chop and stir-fry vegetables as soon as I go back, so my uncle doesn’t have to eat on the street.
Brother Xiaorui, are you right? "
Liu Rui wrinkled her face and thought for a while: "Then you are so nervous, boy, my uncle should feel distressed when he sees it."
Listening to Liu Rui's intention to agree, the cat said happily, "It's okay, I'm not nervous at all; I'm rich, so I'll buy you a lunch box after school at noon today, and then you and my third uncle will have dinner. I go home."
Mao'er's calculation was very good, but he didn't pass the test here in Yanagawa.
When Liu Chuan came to pick them up in the car at noon, Mao'er gave Liu Chuan a headache when he said his plan: "If you run so nervously every day, and you can't eat well, do you think your uncle is still alive?" Can you work hard?
From now on, go to the Public Security Bureau to have dinner obediently at noon, and the sanitation at home will be hit by a good cleaning on Sunday. After that, the weather will gradually get colder. You and your uncle can only cook once in the morning, make more, and keep half, and only come back at night It can be eaten after a little heat, so you two don't have to eat dinner on the street every day. "
Mao'er thought about it, cleaning once a week is not enough, but cooking makes sense. Isn't Wan Jianye just frying the evening dishes together at noon?
As for hygiene and other things, Maoer decided to make a better plan. Now that he is confronting third uncle face to face, there must be no good fruit. Anyway, third uncle will go to Yuancheng in three or four days.
But the cat didn't wait until noon when the good news came.
At [-]:[-], Mao'er was in the third class. As soon as he left the classroom, he saw Liu Hai standing outside in the shade of a tree. He cheered and ran over. Angrily broke away: "I'm already in the second year of junior high school, I'm an adult, don't spin me around anymore, our classmates will laugh at me."
Liu Hai scratched his nose: "Just you? Are you still an adult? Cut, little lord of the pudding order, give me the key quickly. You can continue to enjoy the high-level service provided by the artist at noon today."
The cat happily took off the key hanging around his neck: "I want to eat fried noodles with beans, you can make more sauce and save some for my uncle, when he comes back at night, I will order some noodles for him;
Also, tomorrow I want to eat braised pork, you can make more..."
"Save some for my uncle so he can come back to eat at night," Liu Hai interrupted him imitating a cat's tone, and then made an indignant look: "I remember, little white-eyed wolf, no matter how good Uncle Six is to you, you can only eat it." Miss your uncle alone, don't you?"
The cat stared at him and snubbed.
Liu Hai tossed the key in his hand: "It's almost eleven o'clock, I have to go shopping quickly, at noon, you can ask Third Uncle and Xiao Rui to go back to have dinner with you."
Mao'er suddenly saw the small suitcase behind Liu Hai, and felt a little uncomfortable, and suddenly became a little wilted: "Uncle Liu, are you leaving?"
Liu Hai nodded, and rubbed his head: "No, that's why Uncle Liu came early and cooked for you for a few days, so that Uncle Liu won't forget about me when he walks away."
Mao'er said dully, "No way! Actually, I know how good Uncle Liu is."
At noon, Mao'er had a lively meal of fried noodles with Liu Chuan and Liu Rui at his favorite home.
Liu Hai really made a lot of fried sauce, not only for Liu Xia, but also asked Liu Chuan to bring back a big bowl, which Su Xiaohui and Liu Wei can eat tomorrow morning.
Liu Chuan has asked someone to book a ticket for Liu Hai. On the evening of No. 30, when Liu Chuan went to Yuancheng Police Academy to report for duty on No. 30, Liu Hai walked with him.
When Liu Hai heard about Liu Chuan going to the police academy for advanced studies, he hugged him happily: "Third brother, that's all right, advanced studies are also considered diplomas, and you won't always be crushed by the police academy graduates whenever you get promoted after you come back. caught."
Liu Rui was eating, but her eyes were fixed on the TV, she couldn't take her eyes off it.
Maoer sat beside him and took the opportunity to do his political and ideological work: "Brother Rui, look, color TV is more beautiful than black and white, right? If you come and live here, you can watch it every day, and I will finish writing it at night." For homework, I also watched an interesting TV series, Hong Kong, and martial arts movies, which are so beautiful."
Liu Chuan took the cat off the bed with a bowl, and put it on the small chair beside the dining table: "You are so loyal, it has been so many days, and your uncle hasn't left home, and you still don't forget his brother Here is a mission for you!"
When Liu Xia came back at night, he saw the light from the window of his house from afar. He came back later today than yesterday, thinking that the cat had already arrived home, so he yelled downstairs: "Liu An , Uncle is back."
Immediately two heads popped out from the corridor on the second floor, Liu Hai and Mao'er called at the same time: "Uncle (Yao'er), you are back? Hurry up and eat."
Liu Xia laughed and ran upstairs, and Yue Desheng behind him said to Zhang Yuanchao and the others: "This kid is really nice. I thought he would complain like the people in the Mining Bureau when he went to work in the mountains for the first time. Who knew that not only did he not complain, but he was also full of energy every day."
Zhang Yuanchao said: "It's fresh at the beginning, but after three months, it's time to get bored and skinny. By then, I won't have this kind of energy."
Liu Xia entered the room with the little Laipi hanging around his neck. The first thing he saw was a large bowl of mung bean soup and a plate covered by the bowl.
The cat jumped off him and went to pick up the bowl: "Hey, uncle, this is the stir-fried beans with tomatoes I just made for you. I covered it first in case you came back late."
Liu Hai said outside: "Yaoer, you drink mung bean soup first, and the artistic fried noodles with rich Liu's characteristics will be ready soon, so stay tuned."
Mao'er also promoted for Liu Hai: "Uncle Six's noodles with fried sauce today are very delicious. It's not minced meat, but shredded pork. It's really enjoyable to eat."
Liu Xia happily drank half a bowl of rock sugar and mung bean soup first, and then took a big mouthful of beans: "Yeah, it's delicious, my dear cat, your cooking is getting better and better." Saying this, he ran into the bathroom to wash his face.
When he came out after washing his face, Liu Hai had already mixed the noodles.
Liu Xia only took one mouthful, then gave Liu Hai a thumbs up, and finally ate a ditch full of flat, comfortably leaning against the wall and stretching his legs to touch his stomach: "Why is it so delicious? Ah——, Sixth Brother , if you don’t leave, who will make us such delicious fried noodles when you leave—”
Mao'er raised his head: "I, I have learned from Uncle, and I will definitely cook better than Uncle Six."
As he spoke, he lowered his head again and looked at Liu Xia's stomach strangely: "Uncle, how did you get that scar on your stomach? Today your belly is round, and it's all white."
Liu Xia sat up straight and pulled down his sweatshirt to cover his stomach, and said casually: "It's just that you sneaked up to the mulberry tree that fell upside down on the cliff to get mulberries. Your grandpa saw it, ran away in a hurry, and hung it on the branch in a panic. Haven't I told you several times!"
The cat lifted the sweater again and looked at it and said: "Shouldn't the branch hang in a long way? Why are you bent? It looks like a crescent moon."
Liu Hai cleaned up the bowls and chopsticks and said, "Why is your uncle a top student at a key university? He uses a technical method of hanging up, and ordinary people can't do it like that. Most people hang out like you said, straight , a long way, who can hang a beautiful crescent moon!"
Liu Xia stood up and dragged him to the open space in front of the TV with the cat under one arm: "Accompany my uncle to raise his legs three hundred times on the spot, my uncle has to digest, or his stomach will collapse. "
Mao'er and Liu Xia stood side by side one foot apart, raised their arms, and raised their left leg high on the spot: "Get ready—one, two, three, four, two, two, three, four, three, two, three, four..."
Holding the bowl and plate, Liu Hai turned his buttocks as far as possible in a circle with the largest diameter: "It should be like this, like this, you know? Make your stomach twist, it's said that your stomach will sag like that."
Liu Xia and Mao'er stopped at the same time and asked, "Really?"
Liu Hai walked into the kitchen: "It is said, according to medical experts."
Mao'er and Liu Xia glanced at each other, thrust their hips to the right at the same time, and then imitated Liu Hai's way and turned in a big circle: "One——, two—, three—, four—"
Liu Hai will be leaving in two days, so when Mao'er finished his homework, Liu Xia also packed up his things and temporarily ended today's work. The three of them lay on the ground and talked. They didn't even go home, so Liu Hai told them about the family affairs.
The previous two rains were a bit heavy, and about half of the crops were washed away;
The autumn cucumbers and tomatoes that Xiumei planted by the river were gone;
The cabbage was almost eaten by bugs overnight;
But the plum beans and pumpkins planted on the side of the yard are growing very well, and the two rows of green onions are also good. With the wild vegetables that are dried in spring and other vegetables that Liu Kui bought in Wangning, there is no need to worry about eating vegetables at home.
The elder brother Liu Kui only went to work for 16 days this month because of power outages. He earned less than 20 yuan, but he went to Fujiazhuang for more than [-] days.
Because he didn't know when the electricity would come on, he had to go to Fujiazhuang to see it in a few days. He went several times, but the electricity still didn't come.
The business of Ma Deying's factory is very good. Like Liu Xia, Liu Yu hasn't been home for almost a month. He anticipated this situation when he left home, and prepared the gift he was going to give Liu Ling in advance. When I asked Liu Hai to leave, it was a bag of almonds, which Liu Yu picked out one by one.
The wild almonds in Fengxi Mountain are relatively small, but they are not bitter and have a slightly fragrant aftertaste. Liu Ling's favorite snacks are very few, and the almonds that have been slightly soaked in salt water and then fried are counted as one.
But the work of smashing almond kernels is very annoying. If you smash one by one, you can easily smash the almonds if you don't master the strength. It takes a long time to smash half a bowl.
The almonds that the family used to eat were all smashed by Liu Changchun when he was free. Liu Yu, who has an active personality, would rather go hoeing and weeding than sitting in the shade of a tree and smashing apricot pits and walnuts.
But after going to Kyoto to eat the almonds there once, Liu Yu often sits there and smashes almonds when he comes back, and Liu Hai or Liu Ling will take them away when they return to Kyoto.
Sun Yufang has been married for more than a year and has not conceived. Her family didn't think anything of it, but she herself was a little anxious. Some people in the village said that she started gossiping, and the words were wicked and ugly.
After hearing what Aunt Changxing said, Xiumei took a shoe sole to the gate of the primary school, chatted with a group of women in Zhangjiabao for a long time, pointed at Sang and scolded Huai with a smile, and gave the gossip women a blow:
Control their own mouths, the girls of the Liu family don't cause trouble, but if someone bullies them, they are not afraid of trouble. There are only people who don't want to do things like swearing, and there are no people who don't know how to do them.
Liu Xin started to practice calligraphy now, but he had to sit on the kang every day to practice, otherwise he wouldn't be able to write a single word, Liu Yun and Liu Lei would happily run over to make trouble whenever they saw him writing.
The small belly wrap with the five-poison pattern that Liu Xia bought for the two of them was destroyed, and the two robbed Liu Xin's ink cartridge, and one of them got ink all over his body.
The radio that Liu Yu asked Liu Miao to bring back to Liu Changchun has not been listened to for a week, and now it has become a bunch of small parts. Liu Lei likes it very much, and has to study it for a while every day. He would cry and roll around for anyone to see when he touched the bunch of gadgets.
A few days ago, Liu Yun touched a wheat season bird that had just molted, and put it in his mouth directly. Cooked a rabbit liver, and made a wish to him, the next time there is sauced beef, let him eat the same big piece as the adults, and he will spit out the Maiji bird.
As a result, Liu Lei quit, and he was jumping around, and he must eat rabbit liver, and he wanted to eat beef with sauce as big as a tree bump in the yard.
But the rabbit livers at home had already been eaten by Liu Rui, who had a bad stomach, and that was the only one left. Finally, Liu Kui went to Liu Fulai's house to get two rabbit livers, and then coaxed the little Hades to live.
So Liu Changqing asked Liu Hai to tell Liu Xia that he must buy some sauced beef next time he goes home, and the ones as big as tree bumps are not needed.
The cat said: "Xiaoyun is very courageous. Last time when you were not back, he pinched a very long caterpillar on a tomato and asked his mother to fry it for him. Uncle said that he couldn't eat it even if it was fried." , he wanted to eat it raw, so the uncle hurriedly asked his mother to cook rabbit meat for him.
There are so many dried rabbits in our family, let them eat them all, oh, and Xiao Xin, no matter how delicious they are, they let Xiao Xin eat them, but when I told Brother Xiaorui that I wanted to eat them, he The two hugged and ran into the arms of grandma and mother, and said nothing to us. "
Liu Hai flicked Mao'er's head across Liu Xia: "It's good enough for them to see that you didn't run away, and give you something delicious? You put them on a persimmon tree branch, and you won't let them go for so long. They come down, your uncle doesn't know yet, does he?"
Liu Xia looked at the cat.
The cat said innocently: "It's them who are so annoying. Grandpa went to see grandpa. Uncle and mother went to hoe the ground. Grandma was cooking. Brother Xiaorui and I asked me to watch them. Brother Xiaorui and I didn’t let me write a single word. As soon as we spread out the homework, they grabbed it, so I had to coax them to sit on the persimmon tree..."
"And then?" Liu Xia asked.
"Then, then, the two of them hugged a tree branch, and I tied them to it with a rope. It wasn't tight, but it was tied around the armpit to prevent them from falling..."
Liu Hai said: "Yaoer, you can't think of it, my elder brother said that those two guys were so scared that they didn't dare to move, but they didn't cry or cry, they just hugged the branches hard, and my elder brother gave them to me when I came back." Get it down.
They didn't realize they were afraid until they came down, and wept bitterly. Our mother thought they must have been frightened, so she called them souls for three days in a row. "
Liu Xia asked Mao'er: "If you say tie them up, they will let you tie them up?"
The cat said: "I didn't say tie them, I went up to the tree first and asked Brother Xiaorui to tie me there, and they jumped and screamed anxiously, insisting on going up to let them be tied."
Liu Hai said: "The cat just saw the virtues of those two guys, and didn't dare to see the monkey picking wheat, so it had to follow suit, deliberately leading them to take the bait."
Liu Xia nodded the cat's nose: "I always thought you were obedient and obedient, but who knew you worked harder than anyone else."
The cat immediately turned around and wrapped around Liu Xia like an octopus: "I'm just obedient and obedient, uncle! Look at how obedient I am, hehe, I'm the most obedient and obedient."
Liu Xia didn't blame Mao'er for this, not because he was too used to Mao'er, this seems outrageous thing, in fact Liu Changqing did it decades ago, but Liu Xia doesn't remember anyone mentioning this to Mao'er thing.
Liu Kui had a wild temper when he was a child. He didn't know the danger when he climbed mountains. He dared to climb anywhere. He always climbed to the highest branches when he climbed trees. .
On a windy day, Liu Changqing once again discovered that Liu Kui's "Monkey Touching Persimmon" had climbed particularly high, so he took him to the big pear tree that grew crookedly on the edge of the ditch.
The big pear tree is tall and grows obliquely outwards, with a deep ditch underneath.
Liu Changqing asked Liu Kui to stand alone on a branch that protruded farthest. He stood on the lower branch and tied a strong rope around Liu Kui's ankle to connect it to the main trunk of the big pear tree. together, then left.
Liu Kui stood alone on the swaying tree branch blown by the strong wind for a long time.
Liu Changchun didn't see Liu Kui when he was eating, but Liu Changqing found out that he was tied to the tree when he asked Liu Changqing, so he ran to untie the rope for him. At that time, Liu Kui's arms were already stiff.
Liu Kui didn't get scared out of anything because of this, but when he climbed the tree to play again later, he really stopped climbing on the branches that were too tall and too thin.
Facts have proved that Liu Yun and Liu Lei's brains are also strong enough. Although they cried after they got down, they didn't delay eating and drinking at all, and they didn't see any psychological shadow. Playing, or eager to jump up.
The cat was the first to fall asleep.
Liu Hai listened to him not talking for a long time, breathing evenly, and then said to Liu Xia: "You don't let our family tell the cat how you got that scar on your stomach, it seems right, because you are now Going to work outside every day, he feels that it was because he was ignorant and nonsensical when he was a child that he made you sign up for a bad major, and he felt extremely guilty. If he knew that your stomach was almost pierced in order to get him milk, He wasn't sure how uncomfortable it would be.
Alas, Yaoer, I used to worry all day long, afraid that you would pamper him and spoil him since he was a child, and that he would be used to being very willful and ignorant when he grows up. Thinking that our cat is a bit skinny, it is really sensible. "
Liu Xia was not very happy because of this: "He is not yet ten years old, so why is he so sensible? I especially want him to be like other children who don't understand anything, only know how to play, and don't think about anything when they are full. Just be happy tonight."
Liu Hai turned over and lay there with his chin propped: "Sometimes I think it's not beautiful to be an adult. Look at my uncle and my mother. When we were young, they worried all day long that we lacked food and clothing, and we would never grow up." Big; now that we are all grown up, have passed the college entrance examination, and can earn money, they still worry about it every day.
The fourth brother just got married and settled down, and they started to worry about the fifth brother again. Our mother said that the fifth brother is 25 and six, and if he doesn’t look for him, he will be too old. She told me to go back and tell the fifth brother that this military academy has also graduated , put aside everything else, quickly find a good girl to fall in love with and get married is a serious matter. "
Liu Xia laughed: "Our mother and the others don't know how to count, our fifth brother is still more than a month away from turning 24, right? How can we let them count as 26?"
Liu Hai also smiled: "Well, my mother counted for me as 24, but there was Brother Wu in front of me, so she didn't urge me to find a girl to marry."
Liu Hai clasped his hands together and prayed to the sky a few times: "Bodhisattva, bless the Buddha, bless my fifth brother, don't marry too early. As soon as he gets married, I should tell my mother to follow him. My goal is to be at least 30 years old. Determined not to get married.
The outside world is so big and beautiful, and having a child in wedlock is over too early, and I can't go anywhere, just stay at home and wait to see the child. "
Liu Xia also turned over and lay on his stomach, and said yearningly: "That's right, the outside world is so big and beautiful, I thought I would be able to run around the world to see the scenery as soon as I got to work, but unexpectedly, I crawled back to our I went to work in this ravine.
I have to make a good plan. I can't let Maoer report the wrong major like me in the future. I have to let Maoer report a good major, a major that is easy to go abroad.
Our unit has a lot of bonuses. I will work hard and save more money so that he can study abroad in the future. I will see it all over the world. In the end, I can live wherever it is good, even abroad. When he settles abroad, I will call him my uncle. Our mother and the others also went abroad to have a look. "
Liu Hai looked at Liu Xia hesitantly and excitedly: "Yao'er, there is something I have been holding back for so many days, but I dare not say a word. I am afraid that if it fails in the end, you will say that I am bragging and laugh at me." .”
Liu Xia said: "How can I really laugh at you? If it's really a good thing, it turns out to be dirty and unsuccessful. Our family must try to comfort you. No one would laugh at you. What's the matter, Sixth Brother?"
"Uncle Zeng asked me if I wanted to study abroad for a few years..."
"What?" Liu Xia almost sat up, the cat next to him moved, trying to wake up, he quickly stretched out his hand to pat him, rubbed his chin on his forehead, and the cat fell asleep again.
Liu Xia pressed his voice and asked Liu Hai: "Really? Uncle Zeng really wants you to go abroad?"
Liu Hai nodded: "Well, I said that what I study is Chinese painting, not oil painting, so why go abroad?
Uncle Zeng said that painting is not only about the skills of lines, colors, and light and shade. Of course, those skills are very important, but when the skills reach a certain level, the realm is the most important. None of the students who come out of the Academy of Fine Arts lack skills , but how many became famous and married?
He said that the realm is the state of mind, or the mind and vision. When the mind is broad and the vision is broadened, the things drawn will not be too rigid in skills, and will not deliberately try to express something profound, but in the end it will always be The real shallowness is exposed.
He said that when the state of mind is reached, a flower or a leaf, no matter how small a painting, can express a great state.
He said that every painting method and style has its own special features, and many techniques and expressive techniques of oil painting are equally applicable to traditional Chinese painting.
He wanted me to go to France or England, asked my opinion, and asked me to go back to him after the summer vacation and tell him that I had been thinking about it for so many days, but I didn't know what to do.
Because I heard that if it is not a government-sponsored study abroad, the security deposit alone will cost hundreds of thousands. How can our family have as much money as yours? Someone helped me to go abroad, but they couldn't give me any money.
But I don't want to ask Uncle Zeng to take the money. Uncle Zeng lived in our house for a few years, and he didn't owe us a debt. Why should he pay so much money? "
Liu Xia understood, indeed, a few hundred thousand is really an unimaginable figure for their family, even if the family does not eat or drink for 100 years, they will not be able to raise this much money.
As for Zeng Guangtong, Liu Xia and Liu Hai have the same thoughts. Zeng Guangtong's care for their family has exceeded the obligation of friends. Even the closest family members can only be like this. They should not accept him anymore. more help.
But he really hoped that Liu Hai could study abroad, even if it wasn't for studying abroad, it would be good to just go abroad and see the wider world outside.
And he could see that Liu Hai actually wanted to study abroad very much.
Liu Xia lay on the mat worryingly: "Then what should I do, brother six? It's too late for me to earn money now. Even if I can get a bonus of 500 yuan every month, it will take decades to save up to tens of dollars." Wan, you will be an old man by then!"
Liu Hai knocked his chin on the ground: "Fifth brother said the same thing! It's okay, I'm just saying, how can you be greedy? I've already gone to such a good university in Kyoto, if I want to compare myself with others, If you want to go abroad again, who will you be?
We are living better than many people now, in fact, I am very satisfied. "
Liu Xia nodded: "Me too, I know how to make money, and I even picked up Mao'er. If Mao'er can be admitted to university and have a quiet and stable job, if we can find a good job for eldest brother again, no If I suffer so much and earn more money, I won’t think about anything in my life.”
Liu Hai said: "Well, I was walking on the road with my eldest brother this morning, thinking about it. When can we ask our eldest brother to eat commercial food, it will be great. Our uncle and mother will definitely be happy."
Liu Xia suddenly turned over, held his forehead and called: "But, but Sixth Brother, I still want to ask you to go abroad, I still think it will be a pity if you don't go out!"
……
When Liu Xia woke up in the morning, he felt something was wrong, the room was darker than usual, and the curtains were drawn.
He just remembered that Liu Hai walked in gently from the outside: "Don't move, you sleep a little longer, baby, I put the alarm clock on, it's only five o'clock, it's dark at night, I'll make dinner this morning It’s all done, it’s not too late for you two to get up and eat at [-]:[-].”
Liu Xia looked at Mao'er. Mao'er had one leg on him, with his head stuck in his right armpit, still soundly asleep.
He said to Liu Hai: "Then why did you get up so early?"
Liu Hai said: "I don't think buns are old enough. I'll go to Gudu Road to buy some deep-fried dough sticks and fried buns. You two can go to sleep. I'm fine during the day. I can sleep for a day after you leave."
Liu Xia and Mao'er really didn't get up until [-]:[-]. After eating, Liu Hai sent Mao'er to school, and Liu Xia took a car to Sandaohe.
When he came back in the evening, Liu Hai told him that Liu Chuan went back to Liujialing's house in the afternoon and bought a new radio and a few catties of sauced beef. Liu Hai pointed to a plate on the table: "Here, my third brother came up and cut it It takes only one plate to go."
As soon as Mao'er heard that Liu Chuan had returned to Liujialing, he jumped up and made a fuss with Liu Xia: "Uncle, let's go back this week too. I miss grandma and grandpa. If I don't go back, they should forget about me."
Liu Xia was covered in drops of water, the cat was hanging around his neck, and the undershirt was wet immediately, Liu Xia patted his buttocks: "Go down first, be good, let my uncle wipe it and put on the pants first; don't worry, you Grandma and the others have forgotten who they are, and they can't forget you, a naughty bastard."
Liu Xia enjoyed it comfortably for two days. When he came back on the third day, the windows were dark. He entered the room and turned on the light, and saw the piece of paper pressed on the TV at a glance.
Younger:
My third brother and I took the car together. The porridge and vegetables are enough for you and the cat to eat twice. You two can sleep in for a little sleep tomorrow morning.
The red flower pot is covered with fried sauce. It’s still a little hot now. I’m afraid it will go bad after a long time. The specially made one is a bit salty. You and the cat can eat it for at least three days.
There is braised pork in the small aluminum pot. The cat ate a meal at noon today, but it was not satisfying. I thought it was a disadvantage for you to skip a meal, so I made another small pot for you to keep;
If you can't finish a meal, you must steam it again. After steaming, put it in the pot. Don't lift the lid or move it, so it won't break easily.
I often take the train and arrive in one night, don't worry, I will write to you as soon as I arrive in Kyoto.
Six brothers
Liu Xia leaned on the table, looked around the room, slowly folded the paper, opened the drawer, and put it in a diary.
On the dining table was a bowl of mung bean soup and a plate held in a small basin. He lifted the small basin to reveal the bright green stir-fried plum beans underneath.
He picked up the bowl and drank a big mouthful of mung bean soup. The mung bean soup boiled like thin bean paste and added rock sugar had a touch of sweetness and coolness, and it went straight to the bottom of his heart.
