Back to 1988

Mi Yang hugged the pillow and went upstairs to the small room with him to rest.

Bai Luochuan lived in a suite by himself, and there was a carpet on the floor, and some toys were piled up around it. Although it was messy, each one was very new, but they were thrown aside by the little master after not playing for a long time.The bedroom has a wooden floor, and it is very comfortable to walk barefoot in summer. Mi Yang went to put down his small pillow first, and then went to wash his face and brush his teeth. Master Bai has all the things here, and there are plenty of spares. A pink children's toothbrush was also found.

When Bai Luochuan was a child, he was beautiful in pink and jade. Mrs. Bai even secretly wore small skirts for him, and occasionally bought him some brightly colored little things, but it was up to Young Master Bai's temperament to pick and choose. When he was in a good mood, pink I also like the blue toothbrush, and I can throw away the blue and white striped towel that I usually use when I am in a bad mood.

Mi Yang took apart the little pink toothbrush and used it. After using it, Young Master Bai thoughtfully put it in his toothbrush for him.

One red and one basket, two children's toothbrushes lined up side by side.

Mi Yang glanced at it, and didn't bother to take it out and play it alone, so he yawned and went to sleep.

Mi Yang has always slept honestly, lying on his back with his little hands on his stomach, and fell asleep quickly with his eyes closed.Bai Luochuan was not as disciplined as him, tossing and tossing, turning over and poking his arm after a while, Mi Yang was sleepy and asked in a daze, "What's wrong?"

Bai Luochuan turned over to look at him, and said, "You haven't stayed with me for a long time."

Mi Yang: "Huh?"

Young Master Bai pursed his lips and lowered his voice: "Since your grandma came, you haven't played with me anymore."

Mi Yang closed his eyes and smiled, reached out and groped to touch his little head, and touched it as a comfort, "My grandma only comes once a year, I miss her..."

Bai Luochuan said anxiously: "But I miss you too."

Mi Yang said: "We see each other every day."

Bai Luochuan said in dissatisfaction, "I think about it every day."

Mi Yang was still lying there smiling, and Young Master Bai's expression turned from sunny to cloudy, his small eyebrows were raised, but before he lost his temper, Mi Yang calmed him down.

Mi Yang patted him, coaxing him like adults coaxing children: "Then I will tell you a story, will you fall asleep after listening? My grandma told me a story about a pony crossing the river, which is very nice. Once upon a time There was a big horse and a little pony..."

Bai Luochuan just wanted to hear him talk to him, so he was satisfied with just a few words, and slowly closed his eyes next to Mi Yang.Those who said they only ate one bowl at night ate two small bowls of porridge and took up half of the small bed when they slept. They fell asleep after listening to the story for a while.

When Mi Yang left the next morning, Bai Luochuan hadn't woken up yet, his sleeping belly was exposed, his cartoon pajamas were crooked, and he looked like he was lying on the small bed, with the standard sleeping posture of a bully.

Mi Yang covered him with a thin blanket, washed himself and went downstairs.

The nanny at home has already prepared breakfast, and the old man Bai is reading the newspaper while talking to his son. When Mi Yang came down, he passed by the restaurant to say hello to them, and said, "Grandpa, Uncle Bai, I've slept well, I'll go back to my house first. Already." After thinking for a while, he said, "When Bai Luochuan wakes up, tell him that I'm going out with grandma in the morning, and come to play with him when I come back in the afternoon."

Mr. Bai put down the newspaper in his hand and said with a smile, "Okay, you can go."

Bai Jingrong also treated him kindly, and asked again: "Do you want to stay for breakfast?"

Mi Yang shook his head, his grandma must have done his part at home.

Waiting for Mi Yang to leave, Mrs. Bai happened to bring out a freshly mixed side dish and asked, "Yang Yang is gone? Oh, I even specially made his favorite vegetable and mushroom porridge."

Bai Jingrong glanced at her, shook his head with a smile and said, "You treat Yang Yang as well as your own son."

Mrs. Bai laughed and said: "That's right. After all, I watched him grow up. I was still thinking that day, why not just recognize a godson again. The more I look at this child, the more I like him!"

Bai Jingrong shook his head and said, "Forget it, Mi Zehai hides as soon as he sees me, and you still provoke his son. If this godfather recognizes him, I guess Mi Zehai will propose transfer this year."

Mrs. Bai said: "What's wrong?"

Bai Jingrong spoke succinctly and said: "He raised his position too quickly, so avoid suspicion."

When he said this, the old man Bai next to him snorted disdainfully, shaking the newspaper louder, and Bai Jingrong explained in a low voice: "Dad, you also know that Mi Zehai has one intestine to the end, that's the one." Temper, didn't you just fall in love with his integrity?"

Old Man Bai sneered and said, "Him? I just fell in love with his stupidity."

Bai Jingrong watched the old man's face carefully. Although he said so, he was not really angry, and he also breathed a sigh of relief.

On the other side, Mi Yang also ate a hot breakfast when he entered the house.

Mrs. Cheng also cooked porridge, but it was white porridge. The old man cooked it for more than an hour when he got up early. The rice grains were melted and it was very thick. Wake up in the morning and drink a bowl and two deep-fried dough sticks, nothing could be more comfortable.

After Mrs. Cheng came, she made a lot of small pickles. What she brought out this morning was a small plate of braised peanuts mixed with diced celery, and a plate of pickled cucumbers. They were specially made for Mi Yang, sour and sweet. Drain the water The dried cucumber strips are crunchy and slightly salty, which is just right with porridge.

There is also a small bun with red bean paste on Mi Yang's side, which is also a small snack specially made by Mrs. Cheng. Mi Yang doesn't like sweets very much, but prefers meat, so he broke half of it and put it on Mi Zehai's side , smiled and said: "Dad has worked hard in training, Dad, let's eat!"

Mi Zehai was so moved that he didn't dislike his son's leftovers at all. Cheng Qing, who was next to him, knew it clearly, and smiled and didn't expose his son. finish drinking.

Mi Yang completed this task very smoothly.

After waiting for her parents to go to work, Mrs. Cheng also led Mi Yang out. The grandparents and grandchildren walked slowly and in no hurry, talking and laughing as they walked, until they came to the shop here.

There is still an unused sign at the entrance of the store, with the name of XX Supply and Marketing Cooperative written on it, but it has been changed to "Friendship Store" now.

Mrs. Cheng walked in holding Mi Yang's little hand, and took him to look around first. The layout of the two floors, the second floor sells some clothes and the like, and the first floor is mostly small department stores, probably with loose sugar And tea, after coming in, there is a sweet smell with jasmine fragrance.

The two salesmen were standing at the counter and chatting. The grandparents and grandchildren watched slowly. Mi Yang was sensible and didn't want anything. Do you want this? Need it for school?"

Mi Yang shook his head and said with a smile: "Grandma, can you buy me a few matts? I heard from my mother that children use this to do their homework after school."

Mrs. Cheng took him to the stationery counter and bought him 50 matt workbooks and a small handful of Zhonghua pencils, about 20 of them. Mi Yang said something while holding these He refused to let the old lady pay for it for him again, "Grandma, these are enough, you see, I can write for a semester, and when I come home to visit you during the winter vacation, you can buy me new ones. "

Mrs. Cheng touched his little head and said with a smile, "Okay, listen to us."

Even though he said so, he still bought a hero pen for Mi Yang, muttering: "You can use it when you practice calligraphy in the future, this one is good, your mother used this when she was studying, it is an old brand for many years. After grandma leaves, Yang Yang must study hard and learn all the characters taught by grandma, ah."

Mi Yang nodded in agreement, and just hearing the old lady say that he wanted to leave, he felt reluctant for a while.

The old and the young went shopping outside for a while before coming home together.

There was a cold drink seller on the side of the road, and the old lady bought Mi Yang a glass of iced orange soda to drink. Mi Yang drank half of it, and when the other half was given to the old lady, the old man shook his head and said that he had a toothache. That little cup.

Mrs. Cheng came to visit relatives and stayed for a month. After taking care of her daughter and grandson, she was still worried about her family and bought a ticket to leave.

Cheng Qing personally sent her to the train station. This time, Mi Yang didn't have to be hugged. He stood on the small platform and waved goodbye to his grandma, watching the old lady walk away slowly through the glass window until she saw her. He put down his little hand when he was gone.

Cheng Qing watched the train go with a smile, and wept when he turned around. He wiped his face with a handkerchief and could still see the red eye sockets.

Mi Yang looked at her and said, "Mom, why are you crying, are you reluctant to part with grandma?"

Cheng Qing said: "No, Mom is homesick."

She looked up at the train going far away, the platform was empty, only two or three sporadic stalls selling cooked food and fruit were left, and the yelling was also in the local dialect. She had listened to it for several years, although she could understand it , but still feel that there is no sense of belonging.The direction the train is flying away with her relatives, the terminal station, is her hometown.

Mi Yang shook her hand and looked up at her: "This is also our home, my father and I are here."

"It's not the same." Cheng Qing took his son's little hand and sighed, then smiled again and said, "I'm telling you what you're doing, you don't understand... When your dad changes jobs, we can go home .”

Mi Yang recalled in his heart that his father didn't change jobs so early back then. He was a veteran in the army for more than [-] years, but he didn't stay in the field military area all the time. Later, he was transferred back to his hometown city to work as a civilian in the army. Work, the reason his mother said was that he was studying, and his father would come back to reunite with his family.

Seriously, it's about the first and second grades of elementary school.

I don't know if his father will follow this path in this life.

Mi Yang followed Cheng Qing all the way back, watching the mountains carefully from the car window. The conditions were a bit difficult, but there were also many happy moments.

Thinking of this, the first face that comes to mind is that of Young Master Bai, not the arrogant and self-willed guy when he grows up, but the little carrot head that he watched growing up, although he is also a bit self-willed, but chasing after him The way he runs always makes people want to poke, bully, and even roll their eyes and get angry on the spot if they are impatient!

Mi Yang looked out the window and thought, not knowing when they would part in this life, if he really went back to Shanhai Town to study, would Bai Luochuan come to be his classmate when he was in junior high school?Back then, Young Master Bai was awarded the title of the most handsome transfer student, and he received a lot of love letters.

After thinking so wildly, I slowly arrived at the army compound.

There was still a stack of matts homework books on Mi Yang's small desk. He touched those books and made a decision in his heart.

When he was young a few years ago, Mi Yang couldn't do anything too outrageous, so he just played around slowly, but he had an adult in his shell, so he really couldn't continue to reminisce with a bunch of little kids. One-year compulsory education, so I thought about skipping grades.Jumping grades in junior high school and high school is too conspicuous. Mi Yangzi has always been lazy, so he decided to start from elementary school and skip two grades to try.

Before elementary school started, he began to intentionally do some math problems in front of Cheng Qing and Yone Zehai, and the calculations were very fast, which surprised Yone Zehai and his wife, thinking that there was a young genius in his family.

Mi Yang thought, when he got to elementary school, he would make two sets of super-class papers for the teacher to read, and the problem would be almost solved.

He thought well, but the reality was very cruel.

The elementary schools at this moment are all on Ka’s birthday, especially the elementary schools for children around the army. The teachers were already nervous. When Cheng Qing took Mi Yang to sign up, the school saw Mi Yang’s date of birth, September and September. Subsequent students will not be accepted.

Cheng Qing had no choice but to bring Mi Yang back, planning to let him go to elementary school next year.She could see the disappointment on her son's face, and she also knew that Mi Yang had done a lot of questions and was ready to go to elementary school. She was afraid that the child would be hit, so she bought him a box of butter cakes on the way, and coaxed him carefully.

Mi Yang was disappointed for a while, but soon recovered. It is not impossible to stay at home for another year. Anyway, there are still a lot of books at home. He is free by staying at home. It is much easier than pretending to be a child in school. Thinking about it this way He quickly adjusted his mood, and raised his head to Cheng Qing and smiled.

Seeing this, Cheng Qing felt even more distressed.

When elementary school started, Bai Luochuan lost his temper again, and this time the reason was also related to Mi Yang.

Bai Luochuan went early on the day of registration, went to the classroom and searched around, saw that Mi Yang didn't come to study, didn't say hello to his mother, and went home by himself with his schoolbag on his back.

When the guards went to pick up the child at noon, they waited for a long time and didn't arrive. When they went in to ask, they left long ago. They were so scared that they broke out in a cold sweat and went straight to Mrs. Bai.Madam Bai was quite calm, and her first reaction was to go to Mi Yang's house. Sure enough, her son was eating fruit and playing with a palm-sized game console at Mi Yang's house.

Mi Yang was peeling oranges beside her, and put them petal by petal by her son's hand when she was done. When she saw her coming over, she got up and said, "Hello, Auntie."
