one punch

The house my aunt and the others bought was handed over at the end of February. Grandpa sacrificed his time selling sweet potatoes. The faster it can be done, the fewer man-hours are required and the less wages they have to pay.

It’s the old man’s motto to save what he can. Even their food is provided by his grandfather’s electric rice cooker and induction cooker. Fortunately, his cooking skills are very good, and several workers have no objection. He can gobble up a pot of rice every day. .

Only when the old man arrived in the urban area did he realize that the charging standard for the decoration workers here is also different from that in the countryside. There is an extra charge for a truckload of cement unloaded from the truck and then transported upstairs, so he simply did it himself and put the truckload of bricks and cement It was installed upstairs, and later even the plasterer couldn't see it, so I helped him transport it for free.

Now my grandfather felt embarrassed, and invited those people to the restaurant for a meal after he finished his work.

Although Vientiane is newer in March in Yangchun, March in the south is still winter, and the temperature is below ten degrees. People walking on the road are basically wrapped in thick down jackets. Grandpa is often so hot that he wants to be shirtless because of physical work.

At first, they bought their house on the eighth floor in order to get a lucky number, but later found out that the narrow passenger elevator could not fit the bed, the dining table and the sofa could only be carried by manpower from the stairs, and small items cost 20-30 yuan. No wait, 60 yuan for large-scale handling, or even higher.

The workers in charge of household moving are not as talkative as those plasterers. What they sell is manual work, and the price cannot be lowered for a penny, so my grandfather almost does it by himself, and only finds someone to help if he can't.Every day, I was sweating to catch the last train back home.

Once when I rushed to the station and found that I didn't have enough change, I didn't have time to buy a ticket, and I missed a train. At that time, my mood was like a thunderbolt.

He didn't know how to book a hotel, and even if he knew, he wouldn't be willing to book a hotel at all, so he had to go back and find a few old newspapers for a bed, and sleep on the concrete floor of his new home.After waking up from the cold in the middle of the night, I was shivering all over, so I boiled some boiling water and poured it into a glass bottle to warm my hands until the sun rose the next morning.

Although those days were tough, when I thought that my own child would soon have another child if someone else had it, I became elated again.

The funds at hand are not abundant, so the decoration of the new home is simple. With the help of the old man's supervisor, the decoration matter was successfully resolved in less than a month and it cost more than 1 yuan less than the budget.

Taking advantage of the holiday on May [-]st, my uncle asked the owner of the fireworks shop next door to borrow a van, and Jiang Qing also asked a relative to borrow an Iveco. Finally, the large and small bags of luggage and furniture were transported to the city at one time.

Seeing the setting sun was about to go down, my uncle and aunt decided to leave Jiang Qing's family to have a meal in their new home, which was regarded as a housewarming feast.

A few children are what they wished for, after all, it is rare to get together once.

Jiang Qing and his wife finally compromised, "Well, let's do it, don't make too much, just make wonton dumplings, and they are not polite people."

"Okay!" Uncle opened the menu and told the children to go to the supermarket to buy vegetables, "By the way, bring some glutinous rice balls, don't you like burning glutinous rice balls?"

When Ye Xi was about to go out, she was stopped by her aunt, "Xiao Xi, come and help me see how this gas stove is fixed. Why can't it turn on? Is it out of battery?"

Ye Xi squatted on the bed and took a look, "Oh, hey, you haven't broken the valve yet, just light your ass."

This remark made everyone laugh.

While chatting and laughing, Jiang Ran and Dou Tianxiao had already got off the elevator.

When passing by his own house, Jiang Ran raised his finger, "That building over there is my home, unit 501, if you need anything, you can come and find me."

Dou Tianxiao chuckled, "Is there nothing wrong?"

Jiang Ran smiled brightly, "Of course it's okay."

The 17-year-old Jiang Ran has fully grown his figure and face.

He has a height of nearly 1.9 meters, and the two legs wrapped in black jeans are particularly straight and slender. His facial features look more and more like his father. , when the eyebrows and eyes are bent, the pair of iconic peach blossom eyes will be bent into two attractive arcs, and the small dimple at the corner of the lips will immediately pour out a piece of soft tenderness.

The afterglow of the setting sun seemed to have plated a layer of gold on his body, and the little dimple seemed to suck the soul of a person into it.

Dou Tianxiao was a little dumbfounded.

As soon as he looked away, he heard a piercing whistle in his ear, and then someone grabbed his arm and pulled him back, slamming into a solid chest, as if he stepped on something.

The taxi driver poked his head out and cursed, "Damn you don't have eyes! You don't look at the road when you walk! Don't hurt others!"

After being scolded, Dou Tianxiao was still in a daze, a familiar light fragrance entered his nostrils, and when he came back to his senses, he happened to meet Jiang Ran's gaze.

"Are you okay?" Jiang Ran helped him to stand still, "There are traffic lights ahead, this place is no different from the countryside, there are traffic lights everywhere, you need to keep an eye on the road."

Dou Tianxiao nodded in bewilderment, looked down and saw a shoe print on Jiang Ran's sneakers, gasped, squatted down and patted the upper, "I'm sorry."

Jiang Ran shrank his legs back, grabbed Dou Tianxiao's armpit and picked him up, "It's okay, just go back and wash it off."

Dou Tianxiao couldn't believe it, "Aren't you a clean freak, so dirty, it doesn't hurt to look at it."

"If you don't look at it, you can do it," Jiang Ran smiled, "I'm not like you, I use my fingernails to pick it up when it's dirty."

"When did I pick it!?" Dou Tianxiao turned his head and looked at him.

Jiang Ran: "When I was young, when I first met you, you were often bullied by a little fat man. Once in the bathroom, you were stepped on by him, and your shoes were dirty, so you just squatted on the ground and picked them. Papa papa tears, silly."

Also blame the poor.

"Why can't I remember at all..." Dou Tianxiao scratched his head, never expecting Jiang Ran to remember so many embarrassing things about him.

"You were still young, you have selective amnesia." Jiang Ran laughed.

The supermarket and farmer’s vegetable market are less than one kilometer away from the community, and it is very convenient to walk there. Jiang Ran introduced him to several famous restaurants nearby, “Your favorite KFC is in that direction, walk over and walk through a That's the traffic light."

"I love uncle's noodles the most now." Dou Tianxiao corrected.

"That's right," Jiang Ran nodded, "I also like noodles cooked by your uncle the most. It's best to move the noodle restaurant to the urban area in the future."

Dou Tianxiao said: "It's not that they haven't thought about this problem, but the rent of shops in the urban area is too expensive, and our family has to pay back the mortgage, so far we can't afford to rent, and many of them in the countryside are old customers for more than ten years. I’m afraid I won’t be able to compete with others when I come here.”

Jiang Ran felt that it made sense, "It's okay, anyway, the transportation is convenient now, we can often go home to eat."

"Yeah!" Dou Tianxiao nodded with a smile.

As soon as the two of them got out of the elevator after buying vegetables, they heard the aunt standing at the door yelling, "Hey, this is food bought from a foreign country on the plane. It's been so long."

Jiang Qing: "Your aunt thought you two were lost."

"How can I get lost if I'm there? I took Douzi around." Jiang Ran carried the things into the kitchen quite familiarly, "Uncle, will they go to school in the future?"

"Xiaoxi has to transfer trains when he comes back from school. I guess he is not very happy, but Xiaoxiao is probably quite happy. He always complains that the bed in the dormitory is too narrow and too hard, and how free he is when he goes home." The uncle smiled and said, "It's just a If people live at home, it’s inconvenient to eat, if you cook too much, you can’t finish it, if you cook too little, it’s not enough, and it’s troublesome.”

Jiang Ran said: "We can let him come to our house for dinner in the future."

"That's okay, it's too much trouble for you." Uncle said.

Jiang Qing also heard the conversation between the two, "Hey, what's the trouble, isn't it just to add more dishes and chopsticks, our family Ran Ran also went to your noodle shop to eat and drink, and the noodles are estimated It can go around the earth several times.”

A group of people suddenly raised their heads and laughed.

Jiang's father also echoed, "That's right, big brother, our two families are destined. It's not easy for a few children to play together from childhood to adulthood. In the future, we must help each other when we step into the society. As the saying goes, many friends are many friends." Lu, in the future, our family, Ran Ran, may still ask you for help."

My aunt was so coaxed by the compliments from the husband and wife that she smiled, "What can you ask for? If you see more, please ask, can we have anything we don't agree to? Xiaodouzi, see for yourself, the next semester will start soon." Do you want to go to school or live on campus?"

Jiang Ran's gaze immediately fell on Dou Tianxiao's face, and there was a hint of expectation in his eyes that he didn't even notice.

Dou Tianxiao scratched the back of his head, "Then I'll have the cheek to eat."

Jiang Ran pinched his cheeks and smiled, "Since when did your skin become so thin?"

"Hey..." Dou Tianxiao shook his hand away, "In front of everyone, can you show me some face."

"Oh, yo, Xiaoxiao is still blushing." Father Jiang laughed, "Since everyone is so happy today, how about having a drink or two?"

"Success." Uncle clapped his hands and said, "I happened to bring two bottles of red wine, which were given by an old friend a while ago..."

Several children were sitting in the living room watching TV. Within an hour, my uncle and aunt made eight cold dishes and a hot pot, and my grandfather made a lot of wonton dumplings.

"Ranran, should I order the glutinous rice balls now or later?" Uncle poked his head out, asking for advice.

Jiang Ran replied: "Let's wait a while, I can't even eat after eating glutinous rice balls."

Jiang Qing heard the voice and said: "Don't be so troublesome. Didn't you make wonton dumplings? You can eat whatever you cook. Save the glutinous rice balls for next time. If you cook them for a while, you can't finish them and waste them."

Dou Tianxiao patted his stomach and smiled, "Don't worry, Mr. Jiang, I can't waste it."

Jiang Ran glanced at him, "Your Marshal Canopy is reincarnated."

"Hey! More than that!" Ye Xi said, "He is simply gluttonous. When he comes to your house, you have to hide the food and drink well, otherwise he will clean it up for you overnight."

Dou Tianxiao took off the slippers on his feet and threw them over, "Shameless rumormonger!"

Ye Xi reacted quickly, tilting his head to dodge, and the slipper hit Jiang Ran straight on the head who was watching TV.

Jiang Ran let out an "Oh" and supported his forehead. Dou Tianxiao bounced in front of him at the speed of a rocket launch, knelt on the sofa with one knee, and apologized repeatedly, "Brother, I'm sorry, I didn't mean it."

As he spoke, he took away Jiang Ran's wrist and looked at it, because the slippers were made of hard tendon soles, and Jiang Ran's forehead immediately turned red.

Dou Tianxiao gasped, and muttered in a low voice, "Isn't your peripheral vision usually sharp, why did you not respond to such a big slipper when you patted it on?"

Jiang Ran choked him by the neck and turned him over on the sofa, "Rebel!——Ye Xi, come here and hold his head and hands for me!"

Ye Xi couldn't wait to do the same, and put on an expression of watching the show.

"What are you doing, brother?" Dou Tianxiao twisted twice like a cabbage caterpillar and found that he couldn't break free, he was a little panicked.

Ye Xi grabbed his hands, and his thighs bear the weight of Jiang Ran's whole body, so he couldn't move at all.

"Shang, illicit, punishment." Jiang Ran finished speaking one word at a time, put his hand into his clothes, and quickly scratched it back and forth a few times.

Dou Tianxiao straightened his back with an "ah", followed by a burst of crazy and distorted laughter.

The most ticklish part of his body was his waist. Jiang Ran's tickling technique was the same as he had practiced, which made him feel as if thousands of hands were scratching his whole body, and it became extremely difficult to breathe.

Jiang Ran tossed him so hard that he couldn't survive or die, and even the voice of calling for help was intermittent, as if he couldn't breathe.

Jiang Qing and his wife were just like the audience watching a play in the stands, laughing up and down.

"Yes, the little bully still has to be taken care of by the big devil." My aunt said when passing by.

Jiang Ran knew about Dou Tianxiao's unethical behavior, and he would fight back whenever he got the chance, so instead of stopping when he heard the rescue, he sat on his legs even harder to prevent him from breaking free, and did not give him a chance to breathe and fight back.

"Still making trouble?!" Jiang Ran tickled his ribs again.

Dou Tianxiao was bullied to the point of crying and laughing, with tears streaming down his face, his clothes were pushed to his chest, his hair was messed up like a chicken coop, and finally he begged for mercy intermittently, "I was wrong, I was wrong, brother, brother... Don't dare, don't dare."

Only then did Jiang Ran pull off his clothes.

After a while, grandpa brought the cold dish and hot pot to the table, lined up in a beautiful formation, and shouted loudly: "Dinner is ready..."

The three children rushed forward, huddled together, those who poured drinks poured drinks, and those who handed out chopsticks gave out chopsticks.

"Ran Ran, bring me some red wine—do you have a screwdriver?" Father Jiang said.

Jiang Qing bumped his arm, "Are you drinking? Who will be driving later?"

"Let's leave the car here. I'll drive it tomorrow morning. It's only three steps away."

"That's right, it's so close." After the uncle opened the bottle, he poured Jiang's father first, and then poured himself half a glass, "Dad, do you want it?"

"It's rare to be so happy today, so let's take a sip." Grandpa smiled and pushed the wine glass over.

"I want to take a sip too!" Dou Tianxiao also pushed the wine glass over.

"What kind of red wine are you drinking, don't you have drinks?" said the aunt.

"Hey, let him drink it if he's happy. Anyway, tomorrow is a day off." Uncle said.

"Cheng Chengcheng," the aunt refilled half a cup for him and Ye Xi, and seeing that there was still some left, she asked Jiang Ran, "Would you like a sip for Ran Ran?"

Jiang Ran has never drank red wine in his life, but he was worried that his mother would disagree, so he glanced at her.

Under the warm and lively atmosphere, Jiang Qing made a rare exception, "If you want to try it, try it."

Jiang Ran picked up the wine glass, shook it a few times, and it smelled like wine, but he couldn't help frowning after taking a sip, "It's a bit astringent, and the taste is not good."

Dou Tianxiao took a big sip, narrowed his eyes, and clicked his tongue twice, "I'm not criticizing anyone, but I think this is much better than the honey milk pumpkin juice someone squeezed last time."

"Who is so-and-so?" Ye Xi leaned over and asked.

Without asking himself, Jiang Ran put Dou Tianxiao in his job.

"It's delicious with some Sprite." Father Jiang smiled and poured half a glass of Sprite into it for his son. The dark liquid immediately turned lavender, which looked like a cocktail.

Jiang Ran took a sip and thought it tasted good, so he drank it as a drink.

"Drink slowly, be careful not to get drunk in a while." Jiang Qing reminded.

"I don't feel anything." Jiang Ran took another sip, "It's grape-flavored soda."

After the three rounds of drinking, the food on the table was almost swept away. Uncle and Dad Jiang were equally able to drink, and continued to exchange cups with a table of peanuts. Aunt and Jiang Qing started some housework chores.

Dou Tianxiao and Ye Xi get together to play Tetris.

After Jiang Ran finished eating two dumplings, he suddenly started rambling uncharacteristically.

His skin was pale, and after the alcohol was applied to his face, his cheeks flushed first, and then even his neck began to flush.

The upper body began to feel hot, and the throat became more and more dry.

Jiang Ran took off his coat and hung it on the back of the chair behind him, looking around for a drink, accidentally knocked off the chopsticks on the table.

He was wearing a round-neck T-shirt. From Dou Tianxiao's perspective, he could see the blush spreading all the way to his collarbone.

When Jiang Ran lowered his head to pick up the chopsticks, his waistline and abdominal muscles were clearly visible.

Although Dou Tianxiao had abs two years ago, but for some reason, they look especially good on other people.

The moment Dou Tianxiao raised his eyes, he happened to meet Shang Jiang Ran's gaze, and he looked like a little rabbit who had strayed into the restricted area by mistake, so he quickly looked away in fright.

"Mom and Dad!" Jiang Ran suddenly stood up and roared.

"Oh my god," Jiang Qing rubbed her chest, then turned to look at him, "Scared me, what are you doing!"

"Thank you for your upbringing! I love you!" Jiang Ran made a deep bow and almost fell to the ground.

He felt that his body was floating, shaking from side to side, and he was a little unstable.

Dou Tianxiao quickly reached out to help him.

Jiang's father raised his neck and laughed, "You brat is drunk."

Jiang Qing covered her mouth and couldn't help laughing, "Oh, hey, why is this kid so virtuous when he's drunk? I'm dying of laughter."

Jiang Ran adjusted the angle slightly, and bowed deeply again, "Thank you uncle, aunt and grandpa for the hospitality! The pork knuckle is very delicious! Praise!" After finishing speaking, he clapped his hands.

My aunt laughed and raised her chopsticks and said, "You can eat more if it tastes good. You can eat as much as you want, you are welcome in our house."

"Auntie, you are the most hospitable person I have ever met. Uncle, your noodles are simply the best in the world. Every time I finish eating your noodles, my mood will become very good. It seems that I will never get tired of eating. "

It was the first time that my uncle was embarrassed by being praised, "I just said this to you, and I will give you a free bill in this life!"

"And you, Ye Xi, you are the most righteous buddy I've ever met! Thank you for taking so many blames for Xiaodouzi and me since we were young." Jiang Ran supported the chair, still a little unsteady.

A table of people leaned forward and backward with laughter, and my aunt slapped her thigh, "Oh, hey, why is this kid so honest when he's drunk, his mouth looks like it's been smeared with honey."

Jiang Qing laughed until tears came out.

Dou Tianxiao was used to being disgusted by Jiang Ran since he was a child, and it was the first time he saw him so cute, so he couldn't help but tugged at his arm, "What about me, what about me!"

"You..." Jiang Ran leaned over his chest, and stared at Dou Tianxiao for several seconds, as if he was seriously searching for some suitable words.

While Dou Tianxiao was looking forward to the result, his heartbeat started to speed up inexplicably. He blinked his eyes twice and swallowed his saliva.

Suddenly, Jiang Ran raised his hand and pinched his cheek, his brows and eyes curled up with a smile, "You are so clingy..."

Dou Tianxiao pursed his mouth, and just about to open his mouth, he heard the other party's weak voice: "However, I like it very much."

Dou Tianxiao looked into those dark eyes, his heart was pounding, and his whole face turned red in an instant.
