Rebirth do not come

The day after grandpa's accident happened, Chen Liping and Zhang Taiqing rushed back from Shanghai and brought their one-year-old little daughter Yuanyuan to visit the injured grandpa.

With an adult, there is no reason for Shui Xiangdong to stay with him at night.Zhang Taiqing's son-in-law took on the important role of escort, and Ni Hui was quite satisfied with his stepfather's performance, at least he didn't treat himself as an outsider.

The daughter and son-in-law came back, and the grandmother finally found the backbone, and felt less panic, and everything was discussed.Although Ni Hui and Shui Xiangdong are sensible and capable, grandma feels that they are still two children.Zhang Taiqing had many things to do and returned to Shanghai after only staying at home for two days. Chen Liping and her daughter stayed behind.The job of escorting at night fell on Shui Xiangdong again. It was not until the grandfather had the operation that the uncle and uncle came back from other places to take over the escorting work of Shui Xiangdong.

After the operation, my grandfather stayed in the hospital for more than two weeks.During this period, apart from the elder uncle and the second uncle taking turns taking care of her at night, the grandmother was taking care of her by herself, and Shui Xiangdong and Ni Hui helped out together.Chen Liping said that she came back to take care of the elderly, but with such an older child, how could she take care of the elderly, so she could barely help with the cooking, so that the children and the elderly did not have to go out for fast food.

Grandpa was finally discharged from the hospital, and he recovered from the operation fairly well, but due to his old age, the recovery period is estimated to be very long.His injured leg has not been exercised for a long time. In order to prevent muscle atrophy, Shui Xiangdong and Ni Hui take turns to massage his grandfather every day. After joining the family entertainment team, Grandpa couldn't help feeling relaxed when he saw a group of children surrounding him.

During this period of time, Chen Liping stayed at home, watching Shui Xiangdong and the two brothers running back and forth busy, just like their own family members, so she couldn't help sighing to her mother: "Mom, the two Xiangdong brothers are doing well, just like my own family." It's like your own grandson. It should be said that he is more caring than your own grandson. It's not a loss for you to take care of these two children. "

Grandma smiled and said, "Isn't it. Sometimes I feel very comforted. Fortunately, I have this child, otherwise I don't know what to do. It's just too hard for Xiangdong."

"Mom, it's called good people get good rewards. This child is kind-hearted, sensible, and he knows how to repay his kindness. It's not in vain to treat him well." Chen Liping said with emotion.

Chen Liping lived at home for almost a month. Before leaving, she said to Ni Hui: "Xiaohui, grandpa's health is not as good as before. Grandma has to concentrate on taking care of grandpa. She has no time to take care of you. Go to Shanghai with mother."

Ni Hui shook his head: "Mom, I won't go to Shanghai. I can take care of myself now. Grandpa has limited mobility and is recovering. Grandma can't do it alone. I can help him with rehabilitation training at home. Don't worry. , I won’t be a burden to my grandparents.” Anyway, I just don’t want to go to Shanghai.

Chen Liping said to her mother with emotion: "Mom, Xiaohui has been with you all these years, and she doesn't kiss me anymore." The tone was not unreasonable.

Grandma said, "Why don't you kiss me anymore? Now that he's grown up, he won't be as clingy as he was when he was a child. He still talks about his mother and his sister to us as usual. This child is not good at expressing feelings, and his personality He is very independent and afraid of being controlled by others. Your dad and I don’t care about him. He has a strong self-discipline ability and knows what to do and what not to do. We just watch and don’t do wrong things or go astray. .”

Chen Liping said: "Yes, that should be the case. He doesn't like me interfering in his affairs. Probably because he is afraid that I will take care of him, so he refuses to go to Shanghai with me. Mom, please help me be more strict, and don't let him learn the wrong way. "

"Don't worry, it won't be crooked. This kid has big ideas, and besides, he often plays with the kid Xiang Dong. He has a role model, so how could he grow crooked." Grandma couldn't help being happy when she mentioned that the water was coming to the east. .

Chen Liping said: "Okay, let him stay in his hometown. When I want to come to Shanghai, I will come again."

Ni Hui definitely didn't know that both grandma and mother regarded Shui Xiangdong as the standard of an excellent child, and they still had to learn from him.If he knew, he would definitely spit water and look eastward.Who is Shui Xiangdong, and I need to learn from him?It was ridiculous.

Chen Liping and grandma certainly don't know that the reason why Shui Xiangdong is so sensible and capable is that he has always been trying to turn Ni Hui into a corner. If the two elders knew about it, they might be so angry that they would whip him with a broom Bar.

After my grandfather was discharged from the hospital, he followed the doctor's advice and stayed in bed at home for a month. Then he went to the hospital for reexamination. The recovery was good, so he began to go to the field to do rehabilitation training.Every morning and afternoon after school, several children take turns to accompany grandpa to exercise together. Grandpa walks with the children step by step on the country road with crutches. Get up, everyone feels very happy.

At the end of the first semester of the sixth grade, Ni Hui participated in a national Yan Zhenqing calligraphy competition. This was the information that Teacher Tian knew, so he and Liu Muqing signed up to participate.The entry form is relatively simple, that is, to write two pieces of calligraphy and send them to the organizing committee.Although you don't have to go to the examination room, you can just write in your own home, and write until you are satisfied. The requirements for writing are even higher, and it must be flawless and perfect.

Ni Hui has been practicing calligraphy at home seriously these days, hoping to write calligraphy that satisfies him.Every time the water passed to the east, he would see Ni Hui writing, so he would take a silent look, and then help his grandfather to go for a walk outside.Grandpa can already walk normally with the help of crutches. Because of the long-term lack of exercise, the injured leg has a phenomenon of one high and one low, and he walks with a limp, but the doctor said that this is a normal phenomenon.

Shui Xiangdong supported his grandfather's left elbow with one hand, and asked, "Grandpa, are you still not satisfied with Ni Hui's handwriting?"

"Yes, I have written dozens of pictures, and I always feel that there are flaws and dissatisfaction."

"He has too high demands on himself. There is no such thing as perfection. Even Wang Xizhi may not be able to find something dissatisfied in "Lanting Preface". There are still two days until the deadline. I guess he is thinking about it. The more anxious you are, the more anxious you are, the worse your writing will be." Shui Xiangdong said.

Grandpa said: "That's the reason. I also advised him to relax, but he didn't listen to me."

Shui Xiangdong thought for a while: "Tomorrow is the weekend, I'll take him out to play, maybe he'll be fine if he relaxes."

"Okay, you can take him out to play."

After walking back, the lights in the study had already been turned on, Ni Hui was still reading the copybooks, and several calligraphy works had already been placed on the floor beside him.Shui walked in to the east, and looked at each of them, and turned to the third one: "This one is not bad."

Ni Hui looked up and said, "The penultimate word, that bend is not good."

Shui Xiangdong looked back at him: "It's okay, the flaws don't hide the goodness, it's already pretty good."

"This is a national competition, and there are so many masters. I want to submit a very satisfactory work to participate." Sitting in the grand teacher's chair, Ni Hui looked up at the ceiling, "There are two days until the deadline, if it is not possible , I can only pick two of these and send them over. I’m really not satisfied.”

Shui Xiangdong said: "Participation is the most important thing, you don't have to win prizes."

"Then do your best."

"Why don't we go out and have fun? Tomorrow, we will climb Bijia Mountain, call Zhang Yong and Sha Sha, and relax." Shui Xiangdong suggested.

"My deadline is coming soon, what kind of mountain to climb. Why don't I write more at home." Ni Hui was unmoved.

Shui Xiangdong continued to persuade patiently: "You can't be in a hurry for this kind of thing. You may write twenty or thirty pieces of characters at home a day, but none of them are satisfactory. Maybe you come back after playing and get inspired. If the hand is smooth and done in one go, it is a masterpiece. You see, you can also play and learn, how good it is, the best of both worlds."

Ni Hui frowned and thought about it. Since receiving the notice from Teacher Tian, ​​he has really pushed himself a little bit tight, and he hasn't relaxed for a long time. "I have to go to the teacher's place to practice calligraphy tomorrow."

"Call the teacher and ask for a leave." Shui Xiangdong said.

"Okay." No matter how old Ni Hui is, he is still a human being, and there are times when everyone wants to be lazy and relax.

Before Ni Hui called, he received a call from Liu Muqing: "Brother, have you written your handwriting yet?"

"Not yet. Where's yours?"

Liu Muqing said: "I've finished one piece now, but I'm not satisfied with the other one. I thought you had finished it, so I want to ask you for advice."

Ni Hui said, "I haven't finished writing it yet, not even a single picture."

"Oh, then I'll show you my handwriting tomorrow." Liu Muqing said.

Ni Hui thought for a while: "I won't go to the teacher's house tomorrow, I want to ask for a vacation to go out and have fun."

Liu Muqing became interested: "Where are you going to play?"

Ni Hui glanced at Shui Xiangdong: "Let's climb Bijia Mountain."

Liu Muqing hurriedly said: "I want to go too, can you take me there, brother?"

Ni Hui thought that it would not be good for a few boys to go climbing together with a girl, so he said, "We are all boys, how can you go with a girl?"

"It's okay, I'll ask a classmate to go with me, and I haven't climbed the mountain for a long time. Let me go, brother, please!" Liu Muqing actually started acting coquettishly.

Ni Hui has nothing to do with being coquettish with girls. He thought about it, anyway, he is a kid in his teens. If there is anything he can do, let's go and play, and he agreed: "Okay, we will meet at the foot of Beacon Hill at nine o'clock tomorrow morning."

"Okay, thank you brother!"

Shui Xiangdong had been paying attention to Ni Hui's phone calls, and when he saw Ni Hui hung up the phone, he asked, "Who is going?"

Ni Hui said: "The girl who learned calligraphy with me also said to go mountain climbing with us, and I agreed."

Shui Xiangdong frowned, feeling a little uncomfortable, but Ni Hui had already agreed, so what can be done, let's go.

Early the next morning, several people set off after breakfast.Besides Ni Hui, Shui Xiangdong, Zhang Yong and Sha Hanming, Shui Xiangyang also went with him.Bijia Mountain is not too high, nor is it very steep. Although Shui Xiangyang can't exercise vigorously, it is still possible to climb a mountain.Apart from not letting his brother do strenuous exercise, Shui Xiangdong has no special restrictions. Just like a normal person, Shui Xiangyang himself will almost forget that he was a heart patient, but Shui Xiangdong has never dared to forget.

Bijia Mountain is a famous mountain here. It is named after two depressions between the three mountains, resembling a pen holder. It is a good place for local people to escape the summer heat.There are also buses in the city that go directly to the foot of the mountain, and the transportation is very convenient.

Sha Hanming went on a different path from them, he went alone, Ni Hui and the others went together, plus Liu Muqing's side, there were three groups of eight people in total.

It was a foggy and sunny day, and the top of Daiqing Mountain was covered with milky white mist, which looked as beautiful as a fairyland.Sha Hanming arrived earlier and was sitting bored on the rock at the entrance of the mountain waiting for someone. Liu Muqing arrived a little later. She glanced around and didn't see Ni Hui, but Sha Hanming did.They are from the same school. Although they are not in the same class, they have been in school together for five or six years, so they must be recognizable. What's more, Sha Hanming is very famous in their school. This boy is handsome and can play the violin. , with a very cheerful personality, he is the object of admiration for young girls who are just in love.

Seeing Sha Hanming, Liu Muqing's classmate couldn't help being happy: "Did you say he also came to climb the mountain?"

Liu Muqing glanced at Sha Hanming: "It should be. He and my senior brother have a good relationship, maybe we climbed the mountain together."

"Really? That's great." The little girl became excited, "Then shall we go over and say hello?"

Liu Muqing was a little shy, she said: "No need, we'll talk about it when my senior brother comes."

Ni Hui and the others came late, but they were not too late. They arrived on time because they were early. Sha Hanming got up and ran over, pointing his middle finger: "You guys are so good at moaning, why are you so slow? I'm starving to death, is there anything to eat?"

Shui opened his backpack to the east: "You came without breakfast?"

"Eat it, don't you want to waste energy waiting for someone?" Sha Hanming grabbed a piece of bread in his hand and stuffed it in big mouthfuls. His stomach was like a bottomless pit that couldn't be filled in his old age.

The two girls over there couldn't help laughing, Ni Hui waved at them: "Liu Muqing, here."

In fact, there was no need to say hello, the two girls came over by themselves, Liu Muqing looked at Ni Hui and smiled: "Brother, this is my classmate, Xiao Yao."

Xiao Yao stretched out her hand to greet everyone: "Hi!"

Shui Xiangdong looked up and down at the girl named Brother Ni Hui. Seeing her enthusiasm for Ni Hui, she frowned slightly. She really was called Senior Brother. He had heard Sha Hanming make fun of Ni Hui before, but he never expected it is true.

Sha Hanming's mouth was full of bread, his cheeks were bulging, and his face was distorted. He looked at Ni Hui and stared at him desperately. Whenever he called a girl over, he didn't say hello to him in advance. How embarrassing.

Ni Hui suppressed a smile, and introduced everyone: "This is Liu Muqing, my classmate who learned calligraphy together. These are my neighbors, Shui Xiangdong, Zhang Yong, and Shui Xiangyang. This eater is my buddy, Sha Hamming."

Zhang Yong was unhappy: "Shazi is your best friend, and we are your neighbors. This is too unfair."

Ni Hui put his arm around Zhang Yong's shoulder: "I'm sorry, Zhang Yong is also my best friend. They study in the experimental middle school."

Shui Xiangdong remained silent all this time, he was excluded by Ni Hui as a buddy, feeling a little depressed, and then he hypnotized himself saying that he doesn't regard me as a buddy, and then I don't have to be embarrassed to eat grass by the side of my nest.
