Ji Shi kept a stiff social smile for 20 minutes before returning home, mainly because everyone around him knew that he had won the first place in the exam this time, and everyone came up to congratulate him.

Ji Shi is not quite used to this state. After all, he has returned to the state of high school student for a while, and now he is more used to getting along with his peers.

Fortunately, Ji's father pushed out the motorcycle and quickly resolved Ji Shi's embarrassment.

In the area of ​​rental houses, almost every family is also packing up their things and preparing to go home.

When there are too many things, the motorcycle can't fit three people. Ji's father first sent Ji's mother to the minibus station, and Ji's mother took the things she just bought yesterday back by car, while he and Ji Shi wrapped themselves into two rice dumplings, Ji Shi's schoolbag was on the back, and his materials and homework were also placed on the front.

Although the down jacket is light, it still takes up a lot of space on the motorcycle.

"Is it cold?" Papa Ji asked him, "I want to drive faster to chase the minibus, but if it's cold, I'll drive slower."

Ji Shi shook his head, looked at his father through the seam of the scarf: "I'm fine."

He was sitting in the back wearing only a down jacket, and his father was driving in front, with an army coat on top of the down jacket. Once the motorcycle started, he crossed the bridge where they usually went to school, and Ji's father went straight to the main road.

Motorbikes are not as fast as minibuses, but the urban and rural minibuses they usually take will wait until they are too crowded to sit. In addition, the Chinese New Year is approaching recently, and there are many people coming back, so he makes a trip The top usually goes two or three times, and sometimes even people may not be able to squeeze in.

Fortunately, it was still noon, and there were far less people than in the evening.

In addition to carrying people, the minibus also helps to carry things. The smaller ones are small parts for hardware stores, and some help to carry steel pipes and other things, which occupy the seats of people. In addition, this kind of minibus There is no bus stop, so they stop whenever they are called, and it takes at least an hour to arrive at Ji Shi's town with multiple stops along the way.

Ji's father intends to send Ji Shi back first, and then go back to town to pick up Ji's mother.

At the beginning, he took the main road from the urban area to the town. He turned to the small road to the south when he was halfway through the ride, and drove west to east in it, just passing by the road of his grandmother's house and then to his house. In a short time, although the road is not as easy to drive as the asphalt road, the roads in the towns and villages near them are basically cement roads, and the speed of motorcycles riding on them is not slow.

"Is it cold?"

"not cold."

Of course it is cold. The temperature has been below zero in the morning and evening recently. Although it is above zero at noon, the wind is blowing on the face and it is uncomfortable. Although the neck is wrapped tightly with a scarf, it seems that there is still wind coming in.

After sitting for a long time, his buttocks and feet were numb. In addition, the space on the motorcycle was small and he couldn't move often. Ji Shi felt very uncomfortable.

Of course, sitting on a motorcycle is much better than taking a minibus. The minibus will probably be so crowded that you can't even stand up. The smell of gasoline mixed with the smell of a group of people's breath made Ji Shi feel uncomfortable thinking about it.

His motion sickness has improved a lot since he became an adult, but he is still not used to the smell in the minibus.

The motorcycle drove for a long time, and finally arrived at the area of ​​grandma's house. After a little more driving, he would soon be home. Ji Shi moved his legs a little, but he didn't dare to shake too much, for fear of affecting his father's riding.

"It's almost here, isn't it cold?" The car made a detour, drove on the straight road for a few minutes, and then turned around to the next village, where Ji Shi's neighbor's daughter is married. After a short walk, finally To the road in front of his house.

Ji's father didn't bring Ji Shi home, but parked the motorcycle in front of the second aunt's house.

He called the second aunt's name directly, and asked the second aunt to help Ji Shi unload the bag, and then went in to warm up.

Today's lunch was eaten at the second aunt's house, because it will be too early for them to go back, and they will be too hungry to cook.

Anyway, Ji Shi is also used to looting, and it will be the same after he graduates. My cousin will go to my second aunt's house to grab a meal, and my second aunt will come to his house to grab a meal. After all, the child can eat something good when he comes home. , adults are also dipped.

"Is it cold?" The second aunt brought a bowl of chicken soup to Ji Shi, "There are crabs, mud snails and prawns at home, as well as razor clam soup and shark soup. There was originally Huanzi soup, but it has been kept for a long time. The taste is gone."

Huanzi is also a common seafood here. Its scientific name seems to be clam, but it is fatter and squarer than normal flower clams. The soup is very fresh, but this soup is also divided into seasons. too fat.

"It's okay." Ji Shi gulped and drank the soup, and his body really warmed up a lot.

"It's a pain to ride a motorcycle when it's cold." The second aunt sighed, "But it's too much to take a car."

When talking about the car, her whole face turned up: "No, I can't think about that, it makes me sad when I think about it."

Everyone in Ji Shi's family was motion sick from the eldest aunt to the younger aunt, and the second aunt and his father were the most serious. Anyway, no matter where they went, they would move their feet if they could, and they would ride a bicycle if they could, and they would never take a car.

After a while, there was the sound of a motorcycle at the door again, and his mother came back.

"How many days are you on vacation this time?" Second Aunt asked.

"Let's put it on the eighth or ninth day, but his cram school is about to go to the fifth day, so he won't be able to stay at home for a few days."

"Then bring so much homework back, isn't it too hard for the child?" The second aunt frowned, "It's just too hard now, but it's also at this time, it's still impossible not to work hard."

"Who said no?"

When everyone has arrived, the dishes are also served on the table.

Ji Shi was particularly greedy for a table of dishes. Although the county is good, some of the dishes are of the best quality, and the second aunt knows that he can eat them now, so he cooks a large portion of all the dishes.

Although he ate breakfast late, Ji Shi was already hungry. He ate vegetables and rice with big mouthfuls, which made my cousin look at him several times: "How long has it been since you ate?"

"I had breakfast in the morning, but he waited for his father to hold a parent-teacher meeting for a long time today, and then came back with a motorcycle. He must be hungry already." Ji Ma explained.

The second aunt couldn't help asking about the parent-teacher meeting again. She also held a parent-teacher meeting for her cousin. In fact, the number of parent-teacher meeting held by the school in the three years of high school was actually not many, but every time there was an important thing to announce.

Father Ji couldn't help repeating the fact that Ji Shi got the first place in the class this time, and repeated what the old donkey said about Ji Shi at the dinner table. Dad couldn't rest for a while after he got this energy up.

The cousin tapped Ji Shi lightly with her chopsticks.

Seeing that Ji Shi ignored her, she knocked on Ji Shi again.

When Ji Shi finally raised his head, he saw a thumbs up in front of his eyes.

"Shut up." Ji Shi couldn't help it.

"Ji Shi, you are terrible, talking to my sister like this." The cousin squeezed her nose and eyes, but was glared at by the second aunt again, "Did you give me the first place in the exam once since you were a child? I was called by your class teacher when I was in the third year of high school." Parents."

The cousin suddenly wilted again.

The second aunt could be said to have absolute domination over her cousin, Ji Shi felt that it was more like one thing subduing one thing, and it was interactive.

With the personality of the second aunt, the cousin's cheerful and carefree temper is here to torture her, but the opposite is the same for the cousin, but the two of them are actually very close and very good, mainly because they are both very sensitive in nature. Compassionate people.

……

Ji Shi didn't know how long his dad was going to brag about it. Fortunately, the dinner table was full of family members, so no one would say anything if he bragged about it. But Ji Shi knew very well that his dad was really happy that he got this score. He was busy in the field from the beginning of the year to the end of the year, and the prices of food and vegetables depended on the weather, and there were very few times in a year when his brows were relaxed.

It's a pity that in his previous life, he couldn't make his father feel relieved.

He only felt guilty.

……

On the first day back home, Ji Shi threw his schoolbag aside and went shopping around the village, from the east of the village to the west of the village, and from the west of the village to the east of the village. The neighbor next door played a game of chess. He hasn't played it for many years, so it's rare for him to play once.

However, he will also be called to help with homework. There are quite a lot of junior high school children in their group. Ji Shi just went to this house and was called to that house. People mainly saw that he was idle. If Ji Shi would No one will come to see him if he shuts himself at home. There are countless high school seniors in the village group, and no one is embarrassed to delay others' study.

Of course, there are fewer primary school students. The primary school students in their village now basically live outside with their parents, and the number of primary school students in the town can be counted on one hand.

The air in the house is good and quiet, Ji Shi swayed and let the wind blow on his face, he felt his mood improved a lot.

"Crackling..."

There was a sound at the door, and Ji Shi came out to see that the grandchildren of the neighbors next door were gathering together to set off cannons on the river dam. Seeing Ji Shi coming over, he just smiled and asked him if he wanted to come.

Ji Shi was also divided into one, and when the fire was a little bit, sparks were released immediately.

Although it’s not New Year’s Eve yet, the students are on holiday, and the surrounding area is full of excitement. Some people are climbing up and down the trees, and there are also a group of children chasing and running around, or hanging a sparrow dangling around. At the time, out of reserve, he didn't participate in the minors' games, but Muranishi and his peers called him to play basketball, and he ran immediately.

There is no basketball court in their village. Only the primary and junior high schools in the town have this kind of equipment, but as the saying goes, there is no opportunity to create opportunities. I don’t know who installed an iron ring on the telephone pole in front of the house, which can be used as a basket.

Ji Shi was sweating all over, and even played table tennis in the afternoon.

It is also two square tables put together, and you can play with a racket. The only disadvantage is that the square table is much higher than the billiard table, and it is a little more difficult to play.

It was already dark when Ji Shi came home. Ji's father and Ji's mother started cleaning when they got home during the day. He also wanted to help, but he was driven out to play by the two. When he got home, Ji's mother was already busy in front of the stove up.

The family's New Year's food hasn't been bought yet, and Ji's mother plans to ride a tricycle to buy food tomorrow. When she returns to her natal home in the second day of junior high school, all the aunts will gather at Ji Shi's house, and they will prepare the dishes that will be cooked that day.

So Mama Ji greeted Ji Shi and said that there is nothing good to eat when I come back these two days.

Ji Shi didn't mind at all, he ate well every day in the county, and had a big meal at the second aunt's house first when he came back, so he didn't need to eat any good food at all.

"Go and stay indoors, it's cold here because of the wind."

Ji Shi responded, but he just stayed in the kitchen and refused to leave.

Ji's mother gave up the special seat in front of the stove: "I'll make it for you, and you can help me fuel the fire."

"Okay." Ji Shi sat down on the foam cushion. He was indeed a bit short, and his legs could not be straightened. Ji's mother changed him to a slightly higher stool. gone."

Ji Shi smelled the aroma in the kitchen: "Boiled pork rib soup?"

"It's burning this afternoon. I don't believe it's not rotten this time." Ji's mother had a vicious expression on her face. Her other dishes were delicious, but the meat was not rotten. , Said that the meat she burned could not be chewed.

"It's the same with soup."

"It's okay, the steak I bought is delicious even if it's not rotten."

Ji Shi couldn't help but said, "Didn't you say that there are no good dishes? Why did you cook soup?"

"Don't you do your homework at night? You need to use your brain. How can you not be full? There is a box of walnuts on the top of the cabinet. You will remember to eat it later. It nourishes your brain, you know?"

Ji Shi: "...I don't like to eat walnuts."

Mama Ji emphasized again: "Replenish the brain."

Ji Shi: "..."

Complementing form with form? This is it?Just because a walnut looks like a head doesn't mean it must nourish the brain.

But having said that, Ji Shi obediently went to the cabinet and took the box of walnuts, cracked open it, and ate it, not for any other reason, because walnuts are really expensive.
