pick up a date

The few people waiting at home didn't know what happened. Ji Qingluo got home and took the passbook and left in a hurry. He only had time to say to the two children: "Be obedient at home."

Qin Jiu led Qin Zao and stood at the door, watching his mother get on the dam and go away, he could already guess that something must have happened, and an adult had to deal with it, but for some reason he felt very heavy and sad, Involuntarily, he squeezed his hand tightly.

His hand was held too tightly by his brother, and it hurt. Although he didn't know what was going on, Qin Zao stretched out his hand and held his brother's hand with difficulty. He turned his head, looked up at his brother, and called softly, "Brother."

Hearing the sound and looking at Qin Zao, Qin Jiu cheered up: "Go, go in, it's too cold."

Only Grandma Qin came back that night. She changed the dirty clothes, made dinner again, and coaxed her two grandchildren to sleep. Then this strong old man took off her disguise and sat hunched over in the living room.

The old man was sitting on the other side, and he rarely smoked a cigarette. The whole main room could only hear the sound of the big pendulum clock swinging left and right. When the smoke was a third of the way through, the old man knocked the ash and said, "What's wrong with that kid?" gone?"

After hearing the question, Grandma Qin regained her composure and only replied, "I've already been sent to the hospital."

The conversation ended here, the old man went back to sleep, only Grandma Qin was still sitting here.

Qin Jiu, who got up to go to the bathroom, knew what had happened when he heard these two sentences. Seeing his grandma sitting there worried, he walked over and sat next to her. Coaxing people, since Qin Zao, he has spontaneously discarded the right to act like a baby, and now he doesn't know how to comfort people, so he can only hold grandma's hand before saying: "Grandma, you'll be fine." He said it to Grandma Qin, but also to himself.

Fortunately, three days later, Ji Qingluo came back, packed some clothes, and reported that he was safe. He said that he had been transferred to the ward, and he had a leg injury other than a concussion. Fortunately, he was fine. Thank goodness for a few people.

Qin Mantang also came back that day, and just happened to drive several people to the hospital.

According to Qin Zao's recollection, it was the first time he took the elevator to such a high floor. He held his brother's hand and followed the adults through the long corridor. He could only stand outside the ward and take a look. Clearly, knowing that his father was lying in the bed and hadn't woken up, he silently called "Dad" in his heart.

Three months later, on the day of the Gregorian calendar year, the Qin family got up early to pick up Qin Mancang and was discharged from the hospital. They didn't pay much attention, they just changed into new clothes and went home.

Qin Mancang's legs haven't healed yet. Sitting in a wheelchair, basking in the sun in the yard, Qin Zao crouched in front of him and squeezed his legs. He didn't know how to do it. He would always ask his father if it hurts or if he felt comfortable. Qin Mancang just kept laughing, the gloom in his heart disappeared, his heart was extremely soft, he just felt that his son was really obedient and painful, and was afraid that he would feel uncomfortable sitting alone, so he tried to stay with him.The child has no strength in his hands, so he also replied: "It doesn't hurt, it doesn't hurt, the early massage is very comfortable."

He has never been a person who complains about himself and can't afford to fall. Now his legs and feet are only temporarily inconvenient. Even if he can't return to the original state, the doctor said that as long as he recovers well, there will be no major problems.Seeing the family cautiously in front of me, helpless and funny, I can only take rehabilitation more seriously.

Qin Zao never found a chance to learn how to make dried flowers. Hey, they didn’t even know that dried flowers were called dried flowers at that time. They called it that way because they saw the grandpa made them look good, and the flowers were also dried. It’s New Year’s Day, and Qin Zao pestered Qin Jiu went to Grandpa Chen's house to get the production cheats that he secretly asked Grandpa Chen to write.Only now did they know that the grandfather's surname was Chen, and they still called him "Chen Laosi" when they heard adults chatting.From then on, he changed his name to Grandpa Chen.

At the end of January, the atmosphere of winter vacation was already very strong, and the final exam was coming. The two children of the Qin family had never worried about their homework, so naturally they didn't have to study as seriously as others.

On Saturday, Qin Jiu shook Qin Zao up early in the morning. The two of them didn't bother to eat, so they took an egg and ran away. Nine is in charge, he only thinks in his heart that I will take care of my early child, and I don't have to suffer so much medicine.

The two went to the Zhang family's brothers Zhang Wensheng and Zhang Wentong.When they arrived at Zhang Wensheng's house, they were eating, but Uncle Zhang was not there.

Qin Zao asked Zhang Wentong, "When will uncle come back?"

Before Zhang Wentong could speak, Aunt Zhang had already replied: "Come back on December 27, have you eaten yet? Let's have something together."

The two of them were not polite, they sat down to have a meal together and ran away quickly. The New Year's Eve was approaching, and the fish pond in their brigade had already started harvesting fish. Although the fish pond was owned by the public, someone else bought the fish fry and put them in for raising. , Give some rent or something for the construction of the village, and it will be much cheaper to sell the fish to the people in their brigade, such as small fish and shrimps, which can be picked up casually.

As soon as a few people got the news of the fish collection, they made an appointment to watch the fun, and picked up those unwanted shrimps, snails, and clams. The people in their place were stupid, and they didn’t know how to make these things, let alone eat them. Only those who feed the ducks will pick them up, otherwise they will be piled up by the fish pond, and no one will pay attention to them.

When we arrived at the fish pond, there were already several circles of people around. It was rare that there were some activities in winter, and the big guys came to join in the fun, and they happened to bring some fresh fish back. The fish meat is very chewy, Qin has long liked to eat this kind of fish.

Qin Jiu was tall, so he saw Kong Qu on the opposite side of the pond at a glance, so he pulled Qin Zao to greet several people over, Zhang Wensheng was the most active, and had already run to the front.

Before the net fish started, the net had already been lowered. As long as someone shouted "pull", they could wait to pick it up. When several people squeezed through the crowd to Kong Qu's side, Zhang Wensheng was already dancing and talking about something.

The wind in winter is still very cold and biting. Standing by the fish pond again, one can imagine the damp cold wind. Qin Jiu touched Zao'er's hand. There was no heating, and it was freezing. Unzipped the zipper of the big padded jacket and said, "Morning, come here."

Qin Jiu threw himself into Qin Jiu's arms happily a long time ago. He is short, and Qin Jiu has developed better, so he has grown very tall. He is nearly 1.8 meters tall in the second year of junior high school. You must know that he is taller than the same class. Students are all small.Qin Zao went to Qin Jiu's arms to compare secretly, and found that he had only reached his brother's chest, so he raised his head and asked, "Brother, when will I grow taller?"

Qin Jiu tightened the padded jacket so that he would be able to zip it up, and asked, "Is it tight?"

Grandma Qin's generation is more frugal, and they always like to buy clothes for growing children. According to her words, it's a pity that they can't be worn and thrown away. If they are big enough, they can be worn for two more years.So this padded jacket can hold two people, but it's barely enough.

Twisting her tightly wrapped body, she felt a little uncomfortable, Qin Zao said, "Tight, it's uncomfortable."

"Hey, just wait for a while." Qin Jiu stroked Qin Zao's exposed head. It was more comfortable to use his chin to rub the soft hair, but it was inconvenient to move, so he gave up.

Zhang Wensheng looked at Kong Qu next to him. He was wearing a padded jacket and was empty. His figure was too thin. The bones on his face could be clearly seen, so he called out, "Xiao Quer."

"Huh?" Kong Qu looked back at him suspiciously.

Zhang Wensheng saw two clusters of bruises on Kong Qu's usually fair face, and his whole face was frostbitten. He followed Qin Jiu's example and pulled off the padded jacket, pulled Kong Qu, and forced him into his arms, holding him tightly. They were about the same height, and Zhang Wensheng was a little taller. He put his head on Kongqu's shoulder, and his mouth was full of steam: "You are shaking a little, and you have worn a lot?"

Kong Qu was really too cold, his body was trembling slightly, he was really not too cold after doing this, so he didn't struggle, listening to the doubtful voice in his ear, he replied: "I'm afraid of the cold."

Afterwards, several people remained in this posture and waited to pull the net. Only Zhang Wentong ran back and forth heartlessly, not noticing that his brother threw him aside to give warmth to another person.

In the middle of the morning, the fish was finally pulled up. After the big fish were picked up and the small fish and shrimps were poured out by the pond, several people hurried forward to pick it up. Qin Zao was holding a shrimp in his hand. Remembering that they ran here without taking anything, they moved to his brother and asked in a low voice: "I didn't take the bag, where did I pick it up and put it?"

A few people looked at me and I looked at you, dumbfounded, and discussed it, this place is closer to Qin's house, so Qin Jiu went back to get it.

"Okay, you guys pick it up here first, pile it together, and I'll be right back." Qin Jiu ordered twice before running away.

Run south along the fish pond for a few minutes, and you can see a small path leading obliquely to the dam. It can be used to describe this road.

As soon as he got on the dam, he turned a corner and saw two people walking from the north, carrying bags and baskets. Qin Jiu smiled when he saw the two, and ran over: "Uncle, are you back?"

The two on the opposite side were obviously Qin Mantang and Lin Mu. Qin Mantang compared Qin Jiu's stature and found that this kid was growing very fast. He smiled and said, "Next year, he should catch up with me and your dad."

Lin Mu asked him, "Where did you plan to go just now?"

Qin Jiu: "We came to pick up shrimp and clams, but we just found out that we didn't bring anything to pack."

Shaking the basket in his hand, Lin Mu said: "I knew you must have come to see the fish harvested. When we got home, we heard that you ran away without eating. I knew you didn't bring a basket, so I came here to give you this." Yes, I just bought some fish to go back."

Qin Jiu quickly turned to the other side and took the basket from Lin Mu's hand: "Brother, it's a good thing you're here, otherwise I'd have to go back and get it, and they're still waiting below."

Before Lin Mu answered, Qin Mantang spoke first: "Jiu'er, if you call me Uncle, you can't call him Brother, you have to call him Uncle."

It was a rare time to be mischievous, and Qin Jiu said while getting ready for the action: "Why, besides, brother Lin Mu looks so small, and he doesn't look like you, so why call it an exit."

After finishing speaking, he ran away, laughing while running, and was caught up by Qin Mantang who followed behind him before he was proud of himself for a while, and was threatened by strangling his neck, how dare he dare, wait and see at night...

Listening to the laughter brought by the wind, the trees behind also chased after him.
