Proud Gu Mingyu

Zhou Cheng's classmate Gu Mingyu, who owns a bookstore at home, also knew him. When Zhou Cheng first met Gu Mingyu, he showed off in class, which caused a large group of classmates to go to Zhou Cheng's house to see Mingyu after school, and that classmate was one of them.

Wen Hong is the boy who said that Gu Mingyu is cool. He is short and has a baby face. He looks a bit masculine and feminine, and he is often bullied at school.Ever since he met Gu Mingyu, Wen Hong admired him very much.When Wen Hong's father opened Gu Mingyu's library card, Wen Hong stood aside and peeked at Gu Mingyu, his face flushed red.

Zhou Cheng and Gu Mingyu shared a library card, with a deposit of 20 yuan, half of each person.Originally, this was not allowed, but neither Zhou Cheng nor Gu Mingyu had much pocket money, so Wen Hong's father was only accommodating for the sake of his son's classmate.

Zhou Cheng’s family is strictly managed, and every penny spent must be kept in the account. Chen Lingling will regularly look through Zhou Cheng’s account book. Zhou Cheng does not dare to write in the account book “Expend 10 yuan for renting villain books”, and dare not do anything carelessly If you write something else, it is easy to be seen as fraudulent. After all, 10 yuan was considered a big fortune at that time, enough for Zhou Cheng’s breakfast for a week.

Gu Huaili doesn't care, but he won't give Gu Mingyu a fixed amount of pocket money, and only asks Mingyu to ask him for it when he has no money.Gu Mingyu didn't want to ask his father for money. He always used his New Year's money. After buying the set of "Doraemon" last year, Gao Minmin happened to go to Hong Kong with his parents some time ago. Gu Mingyu asked her to bring it Set "Cardcaptor Sakura", the savings suddenly became a bit beyond the means.

When Zhou Cheng went out, he curled his lips and said unhappily: "Wen Hong always watches what you do, Mingyu, don't play with him, that guy is more delicate than a girl."

Gu Mingyu was holding a few copies of Saint Seiya in his hand, so he had no time to pay attention to him, his whole gaze was fixed on them, wishing he could start flipping through the contents on the street.

After arriving home, for the first time, Gu Mingyu didn't do his homework first, but couldn't wait to read the comics. Zhou Cheng huddled with him and leaned his head to read together—now he can understand those traditional characters.

Maybe reading is really gifted. Since he started borrowing comic books to read every day, Zhou Cheng's grades, which had improved somewhat, plummeted, but Gu Mingyu was not affected at all, and his final exam grades were still double hundred.

Chen Lingling was a little anxious, she didn't know that Zhou Chengcheng was reading manga with Gu Mingyu, which led to her poor grades, so she asked Gu Mingyu to make up Zhou Cheng's lessons.Gu Mingyu took over the task and began to reflect. She also specially wrote a work and rest schedule, strictly stipulating the time for reading and resting, and only giving Zhou Cheng one hour to read comics throughout the day.

As soon as Zhou Cheng saw the timetable, he lay on the sofa and wailed, but unfortunately his objection was ineffective. Gu Mingyu's serious face was very Gu Huaili's style, and Zhou Cheng didn't dare to make a mistake.

Not long after the summer vacation started, the adults got busy again, so they took money for the two and asked them to go to the restaurant by themselves.

One day, Gu Mingyu's aunt took his cousin to the epidemic prevention station to get vaccinated and passed by his house. She stopped by his house to visit him. When she heard that the children had eaten at the restaurant for several days, she said she would cook a meal for them.

Although the food in the restaurant was delicious, the rice was hard. Mingyu often had stomach pains after eating it, and she didn't want to eat it for a long time. Hearing that the aunt said that she wanted to cook, she couldn't wish for it.It's just that the stove has not been turned on for a long time at home, and there is no food or rice.

Since the beginning of summer, the rain has not stopped, and Gu Mingyu's aunt went to the street to buy vegetables under an umbrella, and entrusted her seven-month-old cousin to their care.

It was the first time for Gu Mingyu and Zhou Cheng to take care of such a small child, and they stared at the little doll.

The little cousin looked much better than before, with fair skin and bright black eyes, sitting on the bed while licking her fingers, babbling words that only she could understand.

The little guy loves to laugh, as long as the two elder brothers smile at her, she will also laugh.

Gu Mingyu was relieved to see his little cousin so well-behaved, and surrounded her with pillows and quilts to prevent her from crawling to the edge of the bed and falling off, and then drove Zhou Cheng to the desk to do his homework. He supervised Zhou Cheng while looking at his cousin.

It is difficult for Zhou Cheng to concentrate, he is always moving around, sometimes he says he needs to drink water, and sometimes he says he needs to stand up and scratch his buttocks because of his itchy butt, which makes his study efficiency very poor.

Gu Mingyu imitated what his father taught Xu Gang, and sat aside with a bamboo stick, and Zhou Cheng knocked it down if there was any abnormality.After finally getting him to concentrate, Zhou Cheng suddenly turned his head and called out to him: "Mingyu! Do you smell a bad smell?"

Reflexively, Gu Mingyu picked up a bamboo stick and hit his head, then sniffled. Suddenly, an unspeakable smell rushed over, making Gu Mingyu almost vomit.

Zhou Cheng covered his head and looked at him tearfully, half wronged and half stinky.

The two turned their heads to look at the little cousin on the bed. The little cousin was a few beats behind in responding. Seeing her brothers looking at her, she turned her head and looked at them with an innocent look on her face. After a while, she pursed her lips, "Wow "Crying.

Gu Zhou and the two looked at each other, the rain outside was getting heavier, as if a hole had been poked in the sky, and Gu Mingyu's aunt hadn't come back yet.

Zhou Cheng walked over to pick up the little sister, looked at the yellow patch on her diaper, and exclaimed, "She shit!"

He felt wrong when he opened his mouth to speak, so he quickly held his breath and turned his head to ask Gu Mingyu with a mournful face: "What should we do now?"

Gu Mingyu shook her head, "I don't know, should I change her pants? Auntie seems to have brought them." Then she went to look in the bag, and there was indeed a set of clean clothes and diapers inside.

Seeing Zhou Cheng still hugging his cousin in a daze when he turned around, Gu Mingyu walked over and kicked him, "Stop staring, take off your pants!"

Zhou Cheng: "..." Why do these words feel so hooligan.

"No, it's stained and can't be wiped clean." The two of them frantically worked for a while, but found that they might not have dealt with it immediately. Now that it was dry, the paper towel couldn't be wiped off at all.

Both Gu Mingyu and Zhou Cheng had paper balls stuffed in their nostrils. They never imagined that such a cute little cousin could smell like that.

"I'll fetch water and wash her." Gu Mingyu opened the door, took a small basin and ran to the bathroom to fetch water, and when she turned her head, she saw the panda squeeze through the door and slip in.

At first Gu Mingyu didn't care, the panda often came into his room and slept with him when it was cold, but the next second, Gu Mingyu remembered the dog's habit, and immediately changed his face and shouted: "Zhou Cheng! Dog! The dog has gone in! "

Mingyu picked up the small basin and ran into the house. Zhou Cheng opened his hands and stopped in front of the panda with a face full of fear. He was still afraid of dogs.

Gu Mingyu breathed a sigh of relief, and put down the water basin, "Panda, go outside and play, be obedient."

Unexpectedly, the panda didn't listen at all, but because Gu Mingyu came in, he felt that he had someone to support him, so he became even more mischievous. When he saw the gap, he slipped under Zhou Cheng's feet, and went straight to the dirty clothes that the little cousin had changed into.

Gu Mingyu didn't want any image at the moment, screamed and rushed over, hugging the panda's dog's head: "If you dare to lick that, then you are not allowed to lick me!"

"Do not enter the room!"

"Don't sleep with me!"

"Don't rub me!"

After adding them one by one, the panda was already limp, lying on Mingyu's lap and whimpering in grievance.

Gu Mingyu's aunt didn't come back until they drove the dog out, washed the little cousin and changed her clothes. It was raining too hard just now, and the aunt hid from the rain for a while.

After the aunt left after lunch, the two of them lay head to head to take a nap in the morning, and they were in a daze when Mingyu suddenly heard Zhou Cheng say.

"Where the girls... seem to be different from us?"

Gu Mingyu was stunned, he didn't pay attention just now, but now that he thinks about it, it's really different, his head is like a paste, and after thinking for a long time, he said: "It should be different, my mother has big breasts, my father's is small, your father's breasts are very small. It's the same with mom, since the top is different, it's normal for the bottom to be different, right? Besides, have you ever seen a woman pee standing up?"

"No..." Zhou Cheng had been troubled by this question for a long time, turned over and looked at Mingyu, "I know, they don't have penises, my mother took me to the women's bathroom when I was young."

Children of this age are both curious and ashamed of such things, if it wasn't for Gu Mingyu who was here, it is impossible for Zhou Cheng to ask.

"That's it." Mingyu didn't understand what Zhou Cheng was struggling with. Men and women are not the same, otherwise why separate men and women?

"The key is why?" Zhou Cheng frowned and thought hard, "Why is it different? It's so convenient to have a penis, and they have to take off their pants to go to the toilet. Isn't it cold in winter?"

Gu Mingyu didn't want to talk to him anymore, he was so sleepy now, before falling asleep, he only heard Zhou Cheng muttering.

"very pitiful."

It rained all day, and it was still pouring at night. Zhou Chengcheng simply slept at Gu Mingyu's house. Originally, Gu Mingzhu was not at home and Mingyu slept with his father. Today, Zhou Cheng asked them to go upstairs to Gu Mingzhu's room when he was in Gu Huaili. sleep.

Not to mention how happy Zhou Cheng was, he told Explainyu while washing up, "We can go to bed later at night, I have a lot to say to you." Teacher Gu Mingyu is really conscientious, and never gossips with Zhou Cheng in class.

Zhou Cheng hasn't slept with Mingyu for a long time. It's been raining recently, and their land is very low. Gu Huaili is worried. He will go home almost every night, even if he works until the early morning.

"Hush!" Mingyu was afraid that Gu Huaili would hear it, so she made a gesture of silence, and gave Zhou Cheng a look.

Zhou Cheng shrank his neck, looked at his feet soaked in the same footbath as Mingyu, and smiled foolishly.

"Panda, come and wipe your feet." Gu Huaili had raised a hunting dog when he was a child, and he often took it to hunt in the mountains. Although he despised pandas for being stupid and fat like pigs, he had always been kind to pandas.

The panda is already a big dog, probably because he was hungry and scared when he was a child, and he is especially good at eating. The whole dog is round and can be as tall as Gu Mingyu when standing upright. He holds up his paw like a child and asks Gu Huaili to wipe it.

After Gu Huaili wiped the panda, he went to Mingyu and Zhou Cheng and squatted down, "Mingyu, come and wipe your feet."

Gu Mingyu: "..."

Just as Zhou Cheng wanted to laugh, he saw Gu Huaili wipe Mingyu's feet and said to him, "Xiao Cheng, come and wipe your feet."

Zhou Cheng: "..."

After washing, Gu Huaili rushed them to bed early and put two chairs beside the bed.This is Gu Huaili's habit, as long as it is a bed without a bedside, he will put a chair on it to prevent the child from falling off if he is not sleeping well.

Gu Mingzhu also had it when she was a child, but now that she is older, she no longer needs it. She doesn't have one in her room, but Xu Gang has two in her room.Gu Huaili moved the chair and warned them to go to bed early, then went downstairs.The panda jumped on it, and the two chairs were just big enough to sleep him.

Lying on the bed, Zhou Cheng chatted with Mingyu, as if pouring out all the words he had been holding back.

Mingyu sounded like hypnotism, and fell asleep not long after. Zhou Cheng said nothing, but turned around and saw that Mingyu was asleep with her eyes closed. Her long eyelashes were so thick and dense that she looked so beautiful. .Looking at him, Zhou Cheng felt an indescribable feeling in his heart. At that time, he thought he would be with Gu Mingyu for the rest of his life.

A child's world is always simple and greedy. He doesn't know that a lifetime is long, and there will be too many changes in it that he can't imagine.

When Gu Huaili woke up in the morning, he didn't go to work. After breakfast, he started to move the appliances on the first floor to the second floor. He stayed up all night last night and watched TV all night.In the past two months, heavy rains have continued, the water level in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River has continued to soar, and the water level in Poyang Lake has also exceeded the warning line.Gu Huaili is worried that this side will also be affected. There are three reservoirs and two big rivers in this small county town. There is a reservoir near the family courtyard. Yesterday, Gu Huaili went there when he got off work. The situation seems to be fine for the time being. It's just that Gu Huaili always has a bad premonition in his heart, and always feels that something big will happen.

When I went out in the morning, I chatted with the neighbors, everyone was still calm, only Gu Huaili was worried.Although the government did not order the residents to evacuate, Gu Huaili decided to trust his hunch and began to prepare in advance.

The torrential rain has not stopped, and the house has already started to cut off electricity and water. In the afternoon, the situation is even worse than he imagined.

"Dad, the water has risen." Mingyu shouted from the balcony on the second floor. The paddy fields outside the family courtyard had been completely submerged at some point, and only a few electric poles were exposed.

"So fast?" Gu Huaili was so tired that he was sweating profusely. He walked over and looked outside. In just a minute or two, the flood water had already reached the outer wall of the family courtyard and poured in from the gutter. "The rise is too fast. It's wrong!"

Gu Huaili grabbed his hair and slapped the railing in front of him hard: "It's over! There must be something wrong with the reservoir!"

"What's the matter, old Gu?" Baldy Tang shouted from standing under the eaves in the yard, where he still couldn't see the water coming in.

"It's flooding!" The time was three or four o'clock in the afternoon, many people were at work and not at home, and it was the summer vacation, most of them only had old people and children at home.

"How could the water rise?! Didn't it mean that there is no danger?" Bald Tang turned pale with shock. Yesterday he followed Gu Huaili to the reservoir to check, and the Water Conservancy Bureau clearly said that there would be no problem.

Tang Tuzi also climbed up to the second floor. Seeing that the paddy fields outside were gone, he ran back into the house in a panic. His wife was still in confinement, and his eldest daughter, Juanjuan, was mentally retarded. Baby, Xiao Fei is now his lifeline.He didn't care about other people at the moment, he picked up Xiao Fei and ran outside, not even caring about his wife and daughter.Tang Tuzi's wife heard their conversation, and saw that her husband was so angry, but she had no choice but to pack up a few clothes and drag Juanjuan to follow him.

"Dad, what should I do?" Gu Mingyu and Zhou Cheng looked up at Gu Huaili. It was the first time a child encountered such a natural disaster, and there was fear on his face.

"Take the schoolbags you packed just now, go out first, walk along the main road to the west road, the terrain over there is relatively high, wait for me in the government compound." Gu Huaili originally wanted to ask Tang Bald to take Mingyu and the others away, He went to alert the neighbors.

Now he could only let the children go first, he untied the bb machine from his waist and hung it around Mingyu's neck, "I will leave a message for you when Dad goes out."

"Remember that you are holding hands, and you must not separate." Gu Huaili held the hands of the two together, and repeated, "Don't let go."

"There are pandas, do you want to know about Mingyu?"

The big dog whined and seemed to understand what he said.

"Dad, what about you?" Gu Mingyu had never seen his father's expression so solemn, and Zhou Cheng was also very scared, holding hands tightly with Mingyu, "Won't Uncle Gu come with us?"

"Father is going to inform the others, he will be here soon, you go first, be good."

When Gu Huaili took them downstairs, the water level had already overflowed the children's knees, there was a gurgling sound in the gutter, and it was raining heavily, making it hard to keep your eyes open.

Gu Huaili tightened their raincoats and watched them go out.

When Mingyu walked a long way and looked back, she saw Gu Huaili's family knocking on the door and told them that the flood was coming.

When the water level reached her waist, Gu Mingyu found herself trembling, and the sequelae of the drowning last summer finally appeared.Gu Mingyu walked more and more slowly, and was surpassed by many people.

Zhou Cheng was a little anxious, the rain hit his face, he wiped his face, turned his head to urge him, "Mingyu, go faster, just walk through this section." The family courtyard is filled with farmland Yes, the terrain is much lower than other locations. They have walked a long way and can already see the main road, and the water level there is much lower.

The panda had already run to the front, but seeing that they didn't keep up, it turned back and circled around them.It can no longer stand on tiptoe, and it is completely dependent on swimming. Fortunately, dogs can swim naturally.

Gu Mingyu also wanted to go fast, but the faster the water flowed under his feet, the less he dared to take a step, his face turned pale, especially when he saw an anaconda as thick as their arms swimming past them.

Zhou Cheng was also taken aback. The anaconda wanted to swim towards them, but the panda suddenly bared its teeth and let out a low whining sound, and rushed forward to drive the anaconda away.

With this delay, the water was already up to his chest, Zhou Cheng unloaded his schoolbag and helped Gu Mingyu take it off, and dragged him out for a swim.Gu Mingyu broke out in a cold sweat. At this moment, he didn't even dare to step on the water. If it wasn't for Zhou Cheng, he would have to sink into the water.

Only ten meters away from the main road, there was a fork in the road. The water flow there was horizontal and very fast. When Zhou Cheng swam there, he felt a huge force pulling Mingyu.

"Mingyu!" Zhou Cheng stretched out his hand to hook the electric pole beside him, and the hands they held were tightly held, as if they would loosen in the next second, and Gu Mingyu would be carried away by the current.Zhou Cheng was so frightened that he couldn't speak, he gritted his teeth and wanted to pull Mingyu to his side, but he was only a ten-year-old child after all, and his strength was limited.

Behind Gu Mingyu is the flooded farmland. He knows that there is a ditch there, which is usually one meter deep, but it will only get deeper at this time. If he is unlucky and falls into it, he may never get out.

At this critical juncture, Gu Mingyu calmed down instead. He tried not to think about the water problem, but thought about how he could not be carried away by the water.

Seeing that Gu Mingyu's eyes were closed, Zhou Cheng thought that he had given up, tears welled up in his eyes, and there was a tenacity that would not admit defeat, which made him pull Mingyu even harder.At this moment, Mingyu opened her eyes and shouted, "Panda!"

The panda was wandering behind the fork in the road. The animal's instincts let it know that there was danger here, so it didn't dare to go directly there.

As soon as Mingyu yelled, it rushed over from afar, picked up his collar, and led him to swim in Zhou Cheng's direction.This momentum combined with Zhou Cheng's strength made Gu Mingyu pass the fork in the road smoothly.When they reached the main road, the rain had lightened a lot, and the assault boat of the armed police just came over, and there were old people and children on board.

The armed police carried Mingyu onto the boat, and just as he was about to hug Zhou Cheng, the child raised his face and said, "Uncle, I can swim, let me pass it to other children." Rope followed Mingyu with the panda.

Mingyu took his hand, fixed her black eyes on him, and said in a low voice, "Zhou Cheng, you and the panda saved my life."

Zhou Cheng shook his head, "If you are gone, so will my life."

Gu Mingyu didn't expect him to say this, he seemed a little surprised, but he was really tired, water is the most terrifying thing to Gu Mingyu now, he was nervous from the moment he found the rising water, and he couldn't hold on after being rescued, so he was on the boat He fell asleep in a daze.

Not long after staying at the resettlement site in the government compound, Gu Huaili and Zhou Ming came to find him. When Gu Huaili left, the water level had risen to more than two meters. come out.After handing over the little girl to his family, he happened to meet Zhou Ming who came to look for them. Hearing that the two children came out first, he hurried over here to look for them.

Gu Huaili felt at ease when he saw the talent. As for the BB machine that was soaked in water and broke, he didn't feel bad at all. If he had known that Mingyu and the others were in such a big danger, he would have sent the child out before going back to save others even if he was selfish. .This time, the reservoir burst due to the heavy rain, and a large amount of flood flooded directly across the urban area. Except for a few places on higher ground, the entire county was affected. Because of the sudden incident, there was no time to evacuate, and the number of dead and missing reached a terrifying number.

In the catastrophic flood in 98, 29 provinces suffered varying degrees of floods, four of which were the most severely affected, and the small county where the Gu family was located was among them. Even the General Secretary was alarmed to visit the scene in person. After going out, he even met the chairman with his own eyes, and received a compliment and condolence from him, which was enough for Zhou Cheng to show off for the rest of his life.
