all the way

Liu Hai’s stir-fried tomatoes and beans are also very tasty. Liu Chuan casually took another cucumber, together with Liu Hai’s thin and thick mung bean soup, put it on the mat. Tang, there are only a few people who need to change into ancient costumes with loose robes and wide sleeves.

The four of them really lived up to their names and sat on the ground, eating and talking, Liu Chuan said: "I wanted to come here earlier, and I didn't want you to cook in such a hot day, but Feng He went to find me and told me about Xiao He's assignment. , He still has something to do at the construction site, so he left after talking, I went to find someone first, and then went back to the unit to buy vegetables before coming here."

Both Liu Hai and Liu Xia missed the brothers Chu Fenghe and asked together: "What did you say?"

Liu Chuan said: "Rongze really can't stay, unless Xiaohe is willing to wait until October or November or even later, the students above and around him will no longer pay attention to the assignment, but even if this is the case, there is no guarantee Sure.

Feng He's request was to not let Xiao He go to the school in the village, just go to the village, and he didn't want Xiao He to return to Wangning.

I told Lao Chu, and he agreed immediately, saying that Xiaohe would be allocated a wealthy township. I told him that it would be best to be allocated to an ancient village or Chengguan. The quality of teaching is good, there are bonuses, and the road is good. Ze is very convenient.

He said that no one could enter Chengguan, and the children of the leaders who had just greeted in advance could not fit in. Both he and the bureau chief were embarrassed, and neither could afford to offend them, but Chengguan Middle School only had a few classes, and they couldn't get in all at once. many people. "

Liu Xia tentatively asked: "Third brother, did you give someone a gift?"

Liu Chuan asked rhetorically: "Is it okay if I don't give it away? It may not be enough if I give it away. Fenghe insisted on giving the money, 20 yuan, the fruit and a cigarette I bought, and two bottles of wine from me."

Liu Xia shrugged at Liu Hai: "I thought that treating guests and giving gifts was only done in movies, but it really is! Even the third brother can treat guests and give gifts."

Liu Chuan slapped him: "You bastard, you dare to laugh at the third brother, you think I want to give it away? The third brother has never asked anyone for his own affairs, don't I really feel sorry for Fenghe and the others?" .

There is no way, our ancestors have been farming for eighteen generations, and we don’t have any rich or powerful relatives or friends, and the people we know are similar to us. Now we are somewhat better than Fenghe and the others, and we can help place, let me help them as much as possible.

The wine was left over from the last time our newly transferred Director Zhou went to my place to drink with our criminal police team. Otherwise, I couldn't afford that kind of wine. "

Mao'er suddenly said to Liu Chuan: "Third Uncle, our teacher said that it is unhealthy to treat guests and give gifts through the back door."

The sip of mung bean soup that Liu Chuan had just swallowed was stuck there, and he paused for a few seconds before he nodded seriously to the cat: "The teacher is right, third uncle will definitely stop engaging in unhealthy practices in the future."

Mao'er proudly shook his head at Liu Xia.

Liu Hai, dumbfounded, fixed the cat's head with his big hands to prevent him from moving: "Baby, you, you... ouch..."

After leaving home, Liu Hai and Liu Chuan have been cooperating with Liu Xia to create an environment for Mao'er to speak Mandarin, but at this moment, he feels that Mandarin is really unable to express his helpless feelings.

Mao'er didn't understand, so he looked at the uncles: "What's wrong with me?"

Liu Chuan said: "It's okay, your sixth uncle wanted to say, and you are right."

Mao'er shook his head: "No, Sixth Uncle definitely didn't mean to say that."

Liu Xia didn't know what to say, so he could only talk to each other: "Third Uncle treats guests and gives gifts to help others. Sixth Uncle thinks that you have wronged Third Uncle, but also thinks what you said is right, so... Oh yes, Third Uncle Brother, Brother Six, I want to bring Xiao Rui here, but Big Brother refuses to agree, what do you think should I do?"

Liu Xia also felt that he couldn't explain this matter clearly to Mao'er, so he changed the subject altogether.

As soon as Maoer heard about Liu Rui coming to Rongze, he immediately stopped thinking about what he said just now. He also wanted Liu Rui to come. He felt that he had come to Rongze. should.

Liu Chuan laughed: "Don't worry about it, when I went to tell Mao'er about the school, I directly talked about the two of them. I have prepared Xiao Rui's bedding. After he comes, he and Xiao Wei will live together. I'm there.

The distance from the middle of the county to the old city is about the same as to your place. I think the old city is closer. When school starts, I can just go home and bring people here. At that time, I can’t help my elder brother. "

Liu Hai suddenly realized: "I said that Mao'er failed to plot against Xiao Rui that day, why were you so calm when Yao'er was tossing me there, so you have a plan in your mind, third brother."

Mao'er smiled happily at Liu Xia: "Hey, Brother Xiaorui has also come to Rongze, I...we can go to another school again."

Liu Chuan said: "There are three more people, Guan Qiang, Jianyong, and Hua Yun from Uncle Niutuo's house. Uncle Changxing and Brother Erping came to look for me first. Uncle Niutuo heard about it and went to our house to find your third sister-in-law. He said that Huayun must be admitted to university if he didn't ask, but he just wanted her to come out and see the world, so that she could find a husband's family outside and leave our big mountain nest.

I went to the county again to find someone, and it went smoothly.

The quality of teaching in the townships is similar. Parents generally don’t let their children travel so far to go to a junior high school. The quality of teaching in the county is not better than that of the townships in the north. The university has a little hope, and will send the child to the county middle school for a try.

There was no gift for this matter. When talking about Xiaorui and Maoer, it was your third sister-in-law’s classmate who accompanied them to find their principal. Once, it was considered acquaintance. . "

Liu Xia felt a little uncomfortable just now. He remembered the treats and gifts from movies. The gift giver carried big bags and gave them things he was reluctant to use with both hands with a smile on his face. Either you are superior and dismissive, or you pretend to be polite and accept the gift, pretend to greet the gift giver with a few ambiguous words, and wait until you leave to express your disdain for the gift.

He didn't want the third brother to go through any kind of situation. He felt that his third brother should be a person who did his job cleanly, promoted his position with his ability, and had a clean and smooth life. To be underestimated, he felt aggrieved for the third brother.

But knowing that Liu Rui could come to Rongze to go to school, he felt better again.

He only brought the cat out and left Xiaorui at home. He felt like a heartless white-eyed wolf. He felt sorry for Xiaorui, and he was sorry for his elder brother. Now it’s all right. As long as Xiaorui comes to Rongze, he will have a chance to come back again. Convince Xiaorui to come and follow him.

After dinner, Liu Xia and Liu Hai refused to let Liu Chuan go.

When Liu Hai went to Kyoto, Liu Chuan was still in the army, and he only came back for less than a month every year when he was visiting relatives. Later, Liu Chuan came back, and Liu Hai went to Kyoto again, and they never had the chance to get along for a long time.

Now Liu Hai can come back every summer vacation, but Liu Chuan works in Rongze and can only go home one day a week. I couldn't go back that week, Liu Hai really didn't have many chances to meet his third brother,

At the same time, Liu Hai also misses Liu Xia. He originally thought that Liu Xia could be assigned to Kyoto, and they would be together in the future, and he could take care of Yaoer like he did in Rongze High School. Unexpectedly, Liu Xia was assigned back to his hometown. , Liu Hai feels that he is more wronged than Liu Xia, no matter how good the capital is, if his family members are not there, he also feels that it is not his home.

Yanagawa readily agreed, anyway, he will be alone when he goes back, and he also likes to be with his younger brothers.

So a few people went out for a walk to digest food, there were few pedestrians on the spacious road, and the asphalt road had lost the steaming heat of the day. The three brothers chatted while walking, and the cat pulled a branch in front of it as a whip and ran happily. When they were far away, they came back and circled around them, grabbed Liu Xia's shoulders and jumped a few times, said a few words, and continued to run.

There was not even a trace of wind, and although the few people were walking unhappily, they were sweating all over. Liu Chuan looked at the sky and said, "It's so stuffy, isn't it going to be a heavy rain?"

Before he finished speaking, the raindrops began to fall.

Liu Xia yelled at Mao'er, took off his T-shirt and planned to run over to give him his head, but Mao'er also took off his vest, and ran over with a circle in his hand, smiling: "Oh, oh, Beautiful, beautiful, it's raining, it's getting cooler, uncle, run quickly, you're getting drenched..." He now speaks both vernacular and mandarin, speaking very fluently.

Several people ran back in a hurry, and all of them became drowned.

The benefit of owning a bathroom is particularly obvious at this time. Liu Xia and Mao'er rushed first, followed by Liu Hai and Liu Chuan.

After Yanagawa finished washing, he washed and hung up the clothes of several people in the bathtub.

The place to sleep in summer was easy to pass, the floor was mopped very clean, several people lay side by side on the mat, except for the cat, half of the legs of the three adults were on the floor.

Liu Hai sleeps in the middle, with Liu Chuan on one side, Liu Xia on the other, and Mao Er on the other side of Liu Xia.

After all, the cat is still a child, and his body has not been tossed by an adult. He got up at four o'clock in the morning and was excited until now. He was really tired. Now he lay down and fell asleep within 3 minutes.

Liu Xia touched his little face to make sure he was really fast asleep, and said to Liu Chuan and Liu Hai: "Brother, I may have to go out in two or three days, and the section chief told me as soon as I went to the office this morning. Well, once the rain is over, the temperature will definitely drop, but if it doesn’t drop, the rest time for our team is almost over, and it’s time to work.

I went to the color gold factory. There is a power plant to be built there. My unit has taken over the job. It will take about three weeks to collect data from the field. Although it is not far away, I can’t come back at noon. I am worried about what the cat will do. . "

Liu Hai said: "Don't worry about it, I'll leave it here for a few days, cook for the boy, watch him write, you just go; but baby, it's so hot, you just run around under the big sun." Are you doing work?"

Liu Chuan said: "That's what work is all about. I can't let myself think about it. My unit is a forensic doctor. The other day, even the Sunday when I didn't go home, it was so hot. I was looking at a festering corpse on the north side of the railway. , I feel that I can bear it enough. Seeing those maggots and flies, I almost vomited so disgustingly, they just squatted there and did what they should do.

However, I found that he didn't eat for more than a day after he went back, and he didn't eat watermelon, but only drank plain water.

So baby, it’s not easy to do anything. Some people in my team have been giving advice to forensic doctors all day long, saying that they rest every day because of their high education and higher wages than field staff. I watched them dispose of corpses a few times. I think I I would rather be on the night shift every day and go out to the field than do what they do.

Yaoer, when you first applied to this school, I thought you might work hard in the future. The army also has surveying and mapping soldiers. I have dealt with them, and they always go to some deserted places to work. When I think of them, I can roughly Know your miles work.

No way baby, don’t say that we chose this major by ourselves, even if the state assigned it to us, we have to work hard. You just entered the unit, you have to work harder and harder to get in.

You don't need to worry about Mao'er, even if your sixth brother doesn't stay here, and me, Mao'er has been to my unit before, everyone in my unit knows him, even if I don't stay at home, it's okay for him to go to dinner.

Old Master Wang is still the head of the cafeteria, you don’t know, he is very nice, he still waits to see the children, and the cat goes to eat, even if he goes by himself, he will not cheat the cat, maybe he will give it to the cat More and better. "

Mao'er knew that Liu Xia would go out for about three weeks in a row, and when he didn't come back at noon every day, he was stunned for a while, and then suddenly broke into a smile: "It's okay, uncle, I'm sure you can be obedient at home, I'll follow Uncle Six Learn to cook, I will make it for you to eat when you come back, but remember, you must come back early after work!"

When Liu Xia came back from his first day of work, what he drank was the mung bean rock sugar soup made by the cat.

Seeing that he finished drinking, the cat immediately brought another bowl and brought it over. He said proudly, "Uncle, isn't it very delicious? I boiled it. I didn't let Uncle Liu take care of it. I picked the mung beans myself."

Liu Hai stretched out his thumb and winked at Liu Xia: "Yao'er, our cat is really capable. Not only does mung bean soup cook well, but he also scrambled tomatoes and eggs for lunch, but he won't keep it for you. It forced me to finish eating, it was so delicious!"

Liu Xia probably knew what was going on, so he deliberately asked Mao'er, "You cooked a good dish and didn't let my uncle eat it first?"

Mao'er pointed his little nose at Liu Hai: "You said you didn't tell my uncle." Then he smiled at Liu Xia embarrassedly: "It's fried, and many of the eggs have turned black, hehe."

Liu Xia came back on the fifth day of his field trip and finally ate the scrambled eggs with tomatoes fried by Maoer. He drank two large bowls of mung bean soup and ate most of the dishes. He patted his stomach and sighed sincerely: Comfortable, the dishes our cats stir-fry are really delicious.”

Liu Hai put the last piece of cold cucumber on the plate into his mouth, and said with a bitter face, "I will never eat scrambled eggs with tomatoes again in my life."
