In Shen Xiuzhu's memory, in the third year after his brother left, he had a bicycle and two good friends, Huo Shan and Zhang Lili.At the end of the year, his grandfather took him to the city to look at the house. Grandpa bought a house in a newly developed community with three bedrooms and two living rooms on the third floor, with an area of ​​3 square meters.

There is a large balcony outside the living room of the new house. Standing on the balcony, you can see the garden downstairs. There is also a small balcony outside the kitchen on the other side, where you can see the swimming pool not far away. There are two large bedrooms with bathrooms. One room is going to be renovated into a study.

"This house is also close to the No. 3 Middle School of the city, which is good, but Xiao Zhuzi has graduated from high school in three years and is going to go to another place to study in college. If you want me to say, Uncle Zhou, you can let the child live in my house for three years... ..." Li Lanxin said to Zhou Xuejun after seeing the house.

Zhuang Xing's mother, Li Lanxin, heard that they came to the city, and went to the station to pick up her grandfather and grandson. During the Chinese New Year, she took her son and husband back to the county. , In the past three years, the two have gotten closer.

Zhou Xuejun: "It's better to buy one. Xiao Zhuzi will live in the city if he is willing to work after graduation, and rent it out if he wants to work in a big city. After all, there is a place for him to live in, don't you think?"

"If you plan this way, then it is. Anyway, Uncle Zhou, don't be too far away. Before the real estate is handed over, you let Xiao Zhuzi live in my house. I like this child. I am happy that he comes to live in him."

"That's a good relationship, Xiao Zhuzi, thank you, Aunt Li..."

"Thank you, Auntie!" Shen Xiuzhu thanked obediently, and was patted on the shoulder by Li Lanxin. He was almost as tall as Aunt Li. Aunt Li was 1.6m 1.8, Uncle Zhuang was [-]m [-]m, and Zhuang Xing was tall and strong. Thinking of his brother, he hurriedly asked, "Auntie, will my brother come back next year?"

Li Lanxin was listening to Zhou Xuejun talking about the house with the agent. She was very excited and wanted to buy a set for the eldest son. She just thought of the eldest son when Xiao Zhuzi asked. The two really had a tacit understanding. She replied with a smile: " Yes, he will graduate next year, Xiao Zhuzi misses brother so much?"

It is strange to say that the second son, Zhuang Yang, is not as clingy to the elder son as the little Zhuzi. When Shen Xiuzhu met, he asked his elder brother that Zhuang Yang was mischievous every day. Just don't cling to Zhuang Xing, only cling to her mother at home.

As a mother, she was always thinking about her son in the first year. After a few telegrams, she has gotten used to it this year. After all, she will have to experience her son moving out and becoming independent in the future, but every time Xiaozhuzi sees her, she will ask her brother. It gave Li Lan the illusion that Shen Xiuzhu was the one who was most looking forward to Zhuang Xing's return.

"Then brother won't go abroad after graduation?" Shen Xiuzhu missed his brother very much.

"Well... It's hard to say, he may also travel abroad?"

travel?Is it like my brother went to Shenzhen for a week?Shen Xiuzhu shouted happily: "I will accompany my brother to travel abroad!"

"Okay! Auntie supports it!" Infected by Xiao Zhuzi's happiness, Li Lanxin followed the child's example and replied in an affirmative tone.

After seeing the model house, the three of them returned to another reception building in the community and sat on the sofa in the reception area on the first floor, with a few real estate magazines on the coffee table.

For a three-bedroom apartment of 900 yuan per square meter, Zhou Xuejun paid in full, and the agent in charge was overjoyed. He quickly collected the documents and printed the contract, and served tea and cakes for the three of them. Xiao Xu said that he can run errands, so I will go to sign the contract first..."

Zhou Xuejun nodded, and listened to Li Lanxin's invitation, "Uncle Zhou, after work, take the bamboo to the house for lunch, take a rest after eating, and I will ask the driver to take you back in the afternoon."

"Just eat, don't send it away, let's sit..."

"What's the trouble, I just want to take some things back to my parents. You can show the driver the way. The construction is busy. Xiaoyang will go to the piano competition next week. I don't have time to send the things back."

Zhou Xuejun has lived for most of her life, how can she not know Li Lan's kindness, she said that guiding the way is just to find a reason, "Okay, then it will be troublesome..."

"It's really not troublesome, Uncle Zhou, Xiao Zhuzi, you are not allowed to be like Grandpa, you can't be so polite with Auntie, you know?" Li Lanxin turned to Shen Xiuzhu and continued: "Is the final exam coming soon? Are you sure?"

As soon as the topic turned to children, the adults always had something to say, wishing to tell the children all the roads they had traveled in this life. Shen Xiuzhu listened dazedly. After all, Aunt Li was a teacher and knew him well as a middle school student. I have encountered a problem, but Aunt Li is really good at talking.

No wonder my brother has such good grades that he can go abroad to study in university.

As soon as the house sales contract was signed, the agent heard Li Lanxin said that he would call his family to pick it up, and hurriedly said: "No, I will send you a car right away, and you can guide the driver, and he will take you to the house safely." go back."

This saves more time, so Li Lanxin sat in the co-pilot seat, Shen Xiuzhu and Zhou Xuejun sat in the back row. After stabilizing, the driver started the car, and the car was driving on the road at a constant speed. The open windows poured in the wind, and it blew on Shen Xiuzhu's cheeks and neck. The unpleasant smell disappeared, and he arrived at the destination very quickly. It's like a bus that stops and goes, and it's very crowded.

After a hearty lunch, Zhuang Yang, a sixth grader, went to the sofa to find Shen Xiuzhu. Although today is the weekend, but because he is going to participate in the piano competition soon, his mother won’t let him go out to find his classmates, but he doesn’t want to practice piano right now.” Little Zhuzi, let's go upstairs and play games."

Shen Xiuzhu is used to being called by Zhuang Yang who is 4 years younger than himself. Every time his uncle takes Zhuang Yang back to the county, Zhuang Yang will come to play with him. Zhuang Yang doesn't like to go out in the sun, so the two stay at his grandfather's house In the air-conditioned room, play the game console 'Xiaobawang'.

Li Lanxin entrusted someone to buy it for him in Hong Kong. It costs 1000 yuan a set, and the workers' wages for 3 months. However, this money came from Zhuang Xing's stock speculation money, and even an upgraded version II was released later. For the youngest son, Li Lanxin bought another one.

The small bully is as big as an adult's palm, with mosaic-like patterns on the small screen, and four keys to control the direction. Although it is so small, there are many games in it, such as minesweeper, iron fist, speed racing and other small games. .

Shen Xiuzhu is holding the I, Zhuang Yang is holding the II, the two young boys play iron fist together, control the game characters and I will punch you, and you will punch me back, the blood of the two of them is boiling.

At 4:2 p.m., after playing for [-] hours, the game console ran out of power, and grandpa woke up from his lunch break to go back to the county. Zhuang Yang was very sad, and shouted to his mother: "Mom, let Xiao Zhuzi stay!!"

"It's not big or small, do you know if you call your brother? Your brother Xiuzhu is going back to study for the exam, why does mom stay?"

"I don't care, little bamboo, don't go back, let my mother raise you!"

Li Lan laughed heartily, "Mom is willing, you ask Grandpa Zhou if he is willing?"

Zhou Xuejun: "Grandpa is also willing, my brother will go back to take the exam first, and come to play with you after the holiday, okay?" Zhou Xuejun couldn't help but laugh too, why is his grandson so favored by the Zhuang brothers?

Zhuang Yang is hugging the waist of the beautiful little Zhuzi brother. He is developing slowly. He is only 11 meters old at the age of 1. He doesn't look like Zhuang's physique at all. He shouted sullenly: "Little Zhuzi, come to my house during the holiday. Let’s go back to my grandpa’s house together, that’s the deal.”

Xiaozhuzi is his ideal elder brother, gentle and pampered, unlike his elder brother Zhuang Xing, who never disagrees with anything he disagrees with, and always angers him, so he really wants to replace Zhuang Xing with Grandpa Zhou, so that Shen Xiuzhu is his big brother.

"Okay, let's do homework together during the winter vacation." Shen Xiuzhu obediently agreed.

At 4:30 in the afternoon, it was still hot and dry, but it was much better than noon. Shen Xiuzhu got into his brother's Xiali car and looked at the scenery outside the window.

Zhuangzhou City is more lively than the county town. There are many cars on the street, and there are more self-employed businesses. There are small restaurants, stores, as well as those selling tape music and badges of great men. There are also many people who set up a big Umbrellas stand out.

Pedestrians on the road are also dressed in fashion, young people are wearing jeans that are popular nowadays, young women are wearing long dresses with lace or fashion patterns, women's hair is wavy, and men are no longer a single crew cut. With the spread of film culture, more and more people begin to pay attention to their own image management.

It has to be said that the men and women who started to dress up are a city landscape, and they symbolize the arrival of an era of economic prosperity.

………………

In mid-January 94, Shen Xiuzhu's second year of junior high school ended, and the 1-day winter vacation was about to start. He had been happy for a month and a half, because Aunt Li said that in November, his brother would graduate in the United States and he would come back up!

"Hello, Grandpa Zhou! Is Shen Xiuzhu at home?"

Zhou Xuejun took off his glasses and was looking into the distance in front of the window. He relaxed his eyes when he heard a voice and looked towards the courtyard gate. It was Zhang Lili, a classmate of the little grandson. He replied, "At home, don't be afraid, you call him just..."

"Shen Xiuzhu!!!"

Zhou Xuejun smiled, lived together in Changganli, and the two had no suspicions.

Shen Xiuzhu put down his homework and hurried downstairs to open the courtyard door. As expected, Zhang Lili was getting impatient, she frowned and looked at Shen Xiuzhu and complained: "Didn't you agree to help Brother Dashan? Someone needs to call you! !!"

"Ah? Didn't Brother Dashan set up a stall at night?" It was only noon.

There were more and more passengers in rickshaws on the street, Huo Shan simply stopped working at night, and set up a supper stall like the hawkers. Shen Xiuzhu came up with the idea of ​​fried bananas as soon as he heard it.

In the end, of course it’s not fried bananas, but Shen Xiuzhu can start a small stove. Huo Shan set up a fried skewer stand, riding three rounds during the day, and set up a stall in the park square at night. This layer of chili sauce is spicy and delicious. It can be said that chili sauce is the soul of fried skewers, and the business is particularly good.

Just in time for the students to go on winter vacation and the New Year is approaching, many people returned home to celebrate the Spring Festival with their families, and the flow of people in the county was much larger than usual, so Huo Shan tried to set up stalls from the afternoon, and then waited to see the results. make plans.

Huo's mother quit her job of washing dishes a long time ago. During the day, she cleaned and skewered vegetables, and at night she accompanied her son to the stall, and occasionally went to the square to watch a projection show.It only takes 3 or 4 hours to wash vegetables during the day. She enjoys a lot of leisure and happiness every day than her peers. If she is abandoned by her husband, she will let her son start to live a down-to-earth life, and she will be happy.

"Hmph! You're really a nerd, how did we hold the meeting yesterday?" Zhang Lili acted like a little grown-up asking questions, holding her hands on her chest like the white-collar workers in the movie.

"Ah... that's right, I'm sorry, Lili, come in and sit for a while, I'll go up and change clothes."

Zhang Lili followed Xiao Zhuzai into the house. Shen Xiuzhu went to the freezer and opened a bottle of soda and handed it to her. The freezer had been cut off for a long time, so the soda was not iced. The coldest months in Zhuangzhou Island are January and February. That is to wear a sweater, and add an extra coat for those who are not cold-resistant.

For the sake of the soda, Zhang Lili finally looked better. Sipping on the orange soda, she read the storybook on the coffee table.

Shen Xiuzhu changed his clothes very quickly. He was wearing thick autumn clothes, a jacket his brother bought back from Shenzhen, black slacks, and newly bought white pull-back sneakers.

He bought the jacket when he was 12 years old. He is 16 years old this year, and he is already 1.6 meters [-]. The jacket is a little shorter, which makes his legs look slender.

The young man's appearance has also grown. The originally round almond eyes now grow horizontally, with narrow and long tails, which are slightly charming, but the tip of the eyes is drooping, giving people a fragile and innocent beauty.

Zhang Lili, who has been watching the school grass up close for more than a year, is still unavoidable to be shocked by this beauty, but she has always had a bad mouth, curled her lips, and said angrily: "Let's go! Slow..."

Shen Xiuzhu is very magical, obviously Zhuang Yang and Zhang Lili are younger than him, but he just likes to pretend to be an adult in front of him, and protect him while teaching him.
