Back to 90s

The primary school in [-] had classes on Saturday morning. After three classes, Zhu Yunxuan packed up his things and went home, and saw Xiaohui riding a bicycle with Li Rui following him.

Sima Zhao's heart is well known to passers-by.

Li Rui wants to stay at her home for one night. Jiang Yuexiu agrees very much. In fact, she doesn't understand Li Rui's parents very much. In her opinion, even if a child who is only six or seven years old does not sleep with his parents, he will always sleep with him. You can rest assured only if you are by your side, let's say Zhu Yunxuan, it's cold these days, she is worried all day long that he will catch a cold when he sleeps at night, and before going to sleep, she has to ask Zhu Yunxuan what he did during the day to be at ease.

Li Yue called the day before and told Li Rui that he would come over on Sunday, so Xiaohui would come to pick him up early the next morning. She explained a few words and took out some beautiful pencils with rubber on them Give it to Zhu Yunxuan.

Zhu Yunxuan accepted it with a smile, but Li Rui didn't like it anyway.

"Auntie, I'm sorry to trouble you." Li Rui smiled at Jiang Yuexiu.He was wearing a white shirt, clean and quiet, but he was holding a hen whose feet were tied up with straw and wrapped in a plastic bag.

"No trouble, no trouble." Jiang Yuexiu said quickly, and beckoned to Xiaohui to take the chicken back, but Xiaohui got on her bicycle and left.

"Auntie, you don't even accept a chicken, I dare not stay here." Li Rui spoke again.

Zhu Yunxuan continued to glance at him sideways. In fact, it was nothing for Li Rui to stay and steal the attention of his parents. He is no longer the Zhu Yunxuan in his previous life who forbade his parents to be nice to other children, but Li Rui actually wanted to stay Sleeping in the same bed with him at his house... This is even more irritating!

It's a pity that he couldn't object. Once he objected, he seemed to be making trouble for no reason. After all, it was normal for two six-year-old children to share a bed for a night.

Although the weather is a bit colder now, it is fine to wear only a single shirt. Before Jiang Yuexiu went to pick up Zhu Yunxuan, she prepared the dishes, a dish of roasted tofu with sauce, a dish of fried cabbage, and steamed bacon. Seeing Li Rui staying for dinner, she fried a poached egg for each of the two children.

Zhu Yunxuan ate a full bowl of rice in one go, and then moved a stool with Li Rui and opened the door to do homework in the main room, while Jiang Yuexiu poured water to kill chickens and lose their feathers.

The hair is removed by boiling water, but the temperature should not be too high. After soaking the chicken in hot water, take an old spatula to shovel the hair off.

There is still an egg with a shell in the hen's stomach and many eggs with only yolks. Regarding the egg bought at the price of a hen, Jiang Yuexiu felt a little pity when she saw it, and tried to teach Li Rui to touch it when buying chickens. Feel the chicken butt to see if there are any eggs that are about to be laid in it before buying...

"Mom, the chicken is Xiaohui

Aunt bought it. "Looking at his mother talking about what kind of chickens are free-range, Zhu Yunxuan helped Li Rui open the mouth, even if the other party insisted on staying at his house for one night and made him feel dissatisfied, he couldn't imagine The picture of Li Rui touching the chicken butt...

"I see," Jiang Yuexiu smiled, and now she also remembered that she probably wasn't short of money, "By the way, Ruirui, do you want to eat wild rice stems? Do you want to eat loofah? Taro from the field is also fine. flipped……"

"Auntie, I'm not picky." Li Rui said immediately, as long as Jiang Yuexiu made it, he would eat it even if it was terrible!

"I don't have much work these days, and the clothes I made for your mother are ready. Why don't you touch the snails in the afternoon? It's been raining a lot during this time, and the water in the river is clear. Let's raise them until evening." You can fry snails with mud and sand to eat." Jiang Yuexiu pondered for a while, and then came up with another dish: "It's a pity, if you come here in summer, you can swim in the water."

Children in the countryside go into the river every summer. Even after Zhu Yunxuan was reborn, he has swam twice. For children his age, their parents or grandparents usually watch them swim, and each of them uses an old tire as a lifebuoy. .

Zhu Yunxuan has an old black tire, which his father brought back from the town, and repaired it with his own skills of repairing bicycle tires. Compared with those fancy life buoys, it is like a tank and a car. car difference.

The older ones can swim with the wooden door bolt or take a few pieces of foam, and then swim. Except for those who are very timid, basically all of them can learn to swim.

There is a river in front of Zhu Yunxuan's house. Jiang Yuexiu took a bamboo basket and went down to touch the snails. There are snails attached to the aquatic plants on the bank and the slate tiles soaked in the water. Everyone is willing to go down the river these days I touched some vegetables, so there were not many snails. After more than ten years, the water in the river became turbid. Several factories were opened nearby, and flush toilets were installed in every household. The snails were everywhere, but no one dared to touch them. have eaten.

A lot of memories, obviously from the previous life, are very vivid at this moment. Zhu Yunxuan took off his shoes and went down to the river, flipped over the stones by the river, and after a while, he actually caught a crab!

This kind of crab is called stone crab by the people here, it is very small and has no meat, and only children can catch them, and Zhu Yunxuan especially likes to catch these things.

In fact, his skills in catching crabs are very poor, and his skills in catching lobsters and digging loaches are even worse. Compared with the children in the village who spend all day in the mud, they have dug more than a dozen loaches, maybe he just dug one... However, the parents of other children are not willing to waste oil and salt for the little things their children brought back, but Jiang Yuexiu doesn't mind. Even if Zhu Yunxuan only brings back a loach, she is willing to add a few drops of oil and put some soy sauce and a clove of garlic on it. I steamed it for him while cooking.

"Mom, I caught a stone crab, wait a minute

You steam it for me! "Zhu Yunxuan carefully grabbed the stone crab's back, not letting the two big pincers waved by the other party pinch him.

"Okay, you put it at home first." Jiang Yuexiu immediately agreed, and asked Zhu Yunxuan to bring a sickle and a bamboo pole. The loofah she planted along the river bank was planted but not pruned. The mulberry trees climbed very high. , There is no way to pick off the loofah without tying the sickle to the bamboo pole.

"Okay!" Zhu Yunxuan dragged Li Rui, who had been standing on the steps paved with stone slabs by the river, and ran home, and after a while, the two of them came back with bamboo poles on their shoulders.

Li Rui feels out of place here, and basically can't do anything, even the leeks in the field look very strange, so Zhu Yunxuan talked to the other party while tying the sickle to the bamboo pole with a rope: "If you In the past two days, the mulberry tree has been covered with mulberries! You know, that mulberry tree is specially reserved by my father for me to eat mulberries. Generally, the mulberries produced by those mulberry trees whose leaves are pruned every year are not good... …and the peaches, which have been gone for more than a month, and the dates have long since disappeared. I was looking forward to the typhoon when the dates matured, not to mention the school holidays, and I can still pick dates to eat!"

"I remember Lu Xun wrote that his nanny used mulberries to make wine." Li Rui said, the countryside is actually quite beautiful, and there is no pollution at the moment.

"I haven't tried this, I only know that every time I eat mulberries, my mouth will turn purple, and then my mother will specially change me into black clothes, lest the clothes will be stained by mulberries."

After touching for more than half an hour, Jiang Yuexiu touched enough snails to eat, and then hooked off two tender loofahs with a sickle, and walked home. Loofahs are good things. If you plant two, the family can eat two or three It's been a month, and that's all. The old loofah hangs on the tree until the end, and there are often only thick fibers and seeds left. Get out the seeds and use those fibers to wash dishes. It is environmentally friendly and easy to use. It is better than future generations. Much better with clumps of wire.

When the snails were raised in the water, two drops of vegetable oil would help them spit out the silt in their stomachs faster, so Jiang Yuexiu went out again to get water bamboo.

"Your family grows so many things." Li Rui looked at Jiang Yuexiu's appearance, did the wild rice stem grow at home?To be honest, it was the first time for him to see many things in the ground today, as well as the stone crabs and snails in the washbasin next to them. At first, he thought the stone crabs were small crabs and the snails were small field snails. with...

"Nowadays many people don't go to the street to buy vegetables, so there are more things to grow in the field. You can dig a hole in the head of the paddy field to plant some water. But the variety of water that you grow at home is not good, and many of them have black spots. Don't worry about the poison." Zhu Yunxuan took the Mathematical Olympiad textbooks and tried to solve every problem, while Li Rui took his notebook to write a novel next to him.

Both have grown-up souls, with good self-control

, not deserting at all.

"Actually, the countryside is pretty good. All the things are natural and pollution-free." Li Rui smiled and saw that many snails had already climbed onto the washbasin.

"But it's hard work... By the way, water chestnuts are planted in my field, but unfortunately I can't eat them now." Zhu Yunxuan's family can grow so many things, in fact, it has something to do with his uncle Zhu Chenggong. Before Zhu Chenggong He specializes in farming and doing small labor for others, and from time to time, he also takes vegetables to sell in the town, so there are more varieties of vegetables grown at home. Correspondingly, Zhu Chengcai also grows some at home.

"When I'm mature, your mother will definitely let you bring me something to eat?" Li Rui wrote a paragraph, and said: "I will go to the reading room to write novels during my self-study class on Monday, and I will also read some novels. There are no journals or publishers to which to submit."

Does the drunkard mean to drink?Zhu Yunxuan didn't answer the conversation, but just worked hard to calculate the topic in hand, scribbling and drawing on the draft paper from time to time, leaving some calculations and graphics.

The thick stack of draft paper was brought back to him by Feng Xian from the textile factory, and Zhu Qiuyue is currently painting with red bricks on the drying yard with the girl next door. They painted bedrooms, living rooms and so on. , focused on drawing the table for eating, drew a few circles on it as bowls, and then moved a small stool to sit on the side and piled grass and flowers in a few circles to pretend to eat.

The dishes in the evening were very rich. The chicken was boiled chicken, and besides some vegetables, there was also a large bowl of delicious snails cooked with green onions and ginger. The buttocks of these snails were cut off by Jiang Yuexiu with the special scissors at home. Yes, the screw meat inside can be sucked out with a strong suction. Zhu Yunxuan and Li Rui are both young and often can't suck it out. Jiang Yuexiu prepared two long and thick needles for them to sew quilts and let them take them out. Pick out the screw meat and eat it.

At the end of the meal, the two children didn't even eat a few mouthfuls of food.

Zhu Yunxuan’s family only had a black and white TV set that Zhu Chengcai bought when he got married. He and Jiang Yuexiu asked Li Rui and Zhu Yunxuan to watch TV in their room, but Li Rui and Zhu Yunxuan had no interest in TV for a long time and preferred to go to the TV by themselves. Jiang Yuexiu and Zhu Chengcai praised them fiercely. When they looked at their son, their mouths were so proud that their mouths cracked behind their ears.

As soon as his parents left, Zhu Yunxuan's eyes widened.

"You sleep inside at night, and I sleep outside." He looked at his bed and felt that it was a bit small.

"Okay." Li Rui put the notebook and ballpoint pen in the drawer inside the bed. Is this bed old?He looked at Zhu Yunxuan again and said, "Don't worry, now that I have more energy than I want, I won't do anything to you."

After saying this, his face couldn't help turning a little red, such a blatant molestation of Zhu Yunxuan...

"Be careful I 'made' you!" Zhu Yunxuan threw himself on the ground

For Li Rui, he pretended that he didn't understand some of Li Rui's soft probing words, but when the other party made a teasing statement, he immediately fought back.

Li Rui's face turned even redder, and he was speechless for a moment.

Zhu Yunxuan coughed twice, let go of the other party immediately, and covered himself with a towel blanket: "Sleep!"

"Oh." Li Rui laughed, and suddenly felt that it was necessary for him to complain to Jiang Yuexiu more, if only he could sleep in Zhu's house normally.

However, I still have to try my best to be calm when facing Zhu Yunxuan, otherwise it would be too embarrassing!

It is sad for those who have never even been in love in their previous life.
