child prodigy at eighty

Repairs continue.

While doing the manual work, old man Li introduced what the original part is, what it is used for, where the wire is connected, how to receive the signal, what is the problem with this machine, and so on.One spoke carefully and the other listened carefully. In less than an hour, the back cover of the machine was closed again, the radio was repaired, and the explanation was completed.

"Thank you sir, I'll come back next time." Song Shiyu thanked him very politely, speaking like a little adult, speaking in a leisurely manner.

"Yeah." Old man Li snorted, looked at him, and couldn't help sighing, but he didn't understand.

If you don’t understand it, you don’t understand it. He really likes to hear that this kid has one gentleman after another, reminding him of the old days in the past.

To say that Song Xiaosan'er is also very interesting, now everyone calls people either comrades or masters, especially those who do repairs like old man Li, usually start with "master".But Song Shiyu is not, what comrades, the streets are full of comrades, but are they really like-minded?Master, what kind of title do you want, in his opinion, the old man Li who can play with these electronic products is a person with great knowledge, such a person should be honored as Mr., only the title of Mr. is worthy of his knowledge.

Old man Li was taken aback when he heard him call that for the first time, and asked him why he called him that, and he just said his own reasoning, not to mention, it was quite pleasing to the ear, and he didn't know that at a young age Where did he get so much reason.Because of his words, Mr. Li, the old man's usual eccentric temper has been restrained by eight points, and he is extraordinarily pleasant to him.

At this time, the curtain was lifted, and a ray of sunlight came in, which was an instant thing, and the sunlight was shut out again as the curtain fell.

This is enough to see the person coming, he is a young man of thirteen or fourteen, his skin is sallow and black, he is as thin as a stick, and the blue clothes on his body have been worn for an unknown amount of time, and the shoulder cuffs are frayed. The color has changed, and it hangs gray and bald on the body, without half a spirit.

"Ah Feng." Song Shiyu lost the respect and seriousness he had just now, with a big smile on his face, "I'm coming to see you."

"Hmph." Old man Li hummed softly, went out and lay down on his recliner again, just now he was learning how to repair the radio with him, and in a blink of an eye he said he wanted to come and see that brat.

Song Shiyu didn't care either, he knew that Xiaosi must have stuck to him even without looking, and he coaxed old man Li to squint his eyes one by one.

The boy who was called Ah Feng smiled, "You are here." The words were almost exactly the same as that of old man Li, but his tone was full of obvious joy.

"I saw something very interesting these days, even more interesting than the radio." Song Shiyu smiled and shared his new discovery with his friends.

While tidying up the items on the shelves, Gu Weifeng listened to his little friend tell what he had seen and heard. He raised his arm and revealed a big centipede under his armpit. It was obvious that the clothes were torn and he sewed them himself. The craftsmanship was horrible.

"Your clothes are torn." Song Shiyu said.

"Well, it's sewn." He even deliberately showed off his skills.

Song Shiyu felt uncomfortable watching it, it was so ugly.

Gu Weifeng didn't feel that there was anything wrong with this at all, it was enough to sew the clothes if they were torn, whether they looked good or not was something that girls had nothing to think about.Besides, he was content to have clothes to wear.

It didn't take long to tidy up the two shelves, and then went to the backyard to take out buckets to carry water.

"Ah Feng, here." Song Shiyu took out a big white rabbit toffee and handed it to him.

Gu Weifeng picked up the bucket, licked his lips, and said, "You eat it, I don't use it."

Song Shiyu didn't insist, he pulled out the wrapping paper and stuffed it into his mouth, and went to fetch water with him.

Gu Weifeng and the others didn’t have a well in their yard, and the tap water only came through a few tube buildings in Song Shiyu’s house. Others had to get water from a public well not far away.

I don’t know how many years the water well has been used, and the stones on the ground next to it are all smooth and lovely, but it’s just that it’s not easy to stand alone in winter, so it’s not discussed.

A layer of stones was laid around the well, so as not to accidentally fall into the well, and the well would be abandoned even if the person was gone. It was not easy to dig a well.

Gu Weifeng bent down to fetch water, Song Shiyu shouted, "Ah Feng!"

"Ah?" He opened his mouth, and a piece of sweet toffee was stuffed into his mouth, so sweet that he couldn't bear to swallow it.Even if his little friend brings him one every now and then, he still cherishes it very much. Sweetness has always been the thing he lacks the most.

"You..." No need, he wanted to say that, but the sweetness in his mouth made him unable to say it.He knew that Song Shiyu himself could not eat white rabbits every day, but he would eat one every day if he had one, and if he gave it to him, he would lose it.

He pretended to refuse, but in fact, he still hoped that he could bring him a little sweetness, otherwise he would not be able to return to being fooled. He felt that he was cheating his friend, and he was very ashamed.

Because Song Shiyu often brought him white rabbit milk candies, when he saw this child later, he felt that the whole child was sweet with milk flavor.

Song Shiyu smiled and didn't take it seriously at all, and continued to talk about his views on the tape recorder, "It's more interesting than the radio, Ah Feng, when do you think someone will repair it in the shop?"

"I don't know, but I won't touch it even if I take it. That thing is more expensive than a radio, but I can secretly touch it for you when the time comes." Gu Weifeng's voice was a bit vague with sugar in his mouth.

"I know, so I want to buy it myself." Song Shiyu said distressedly.He wanted to buy it, but he had no idea where the money would come from.

"Cough, cough, cough!" Gu Weifeng gulped down the candy in shock, choking him so hard that he stretched his neck and patted his chest before going down.

"Buy it yourself?" Did he hear correctly, the kid said he bought it by himself? "Do you know how much it costs to buy a tape recorder? Where can I get tickets?"

"340 two yuan, I don't know the ticket yet." Song Shiyu said.

"With so much money and no tickets, how do you want to get a tape recorder?" Gu Weifeng really couldn't imagine, but he knew that a worker's salary is only 32.5 yuan now, and he has to take care of the food and drink of the whole family, so that he can buy that at home. It's a dream.As for himself, he has no family and no job, so when he grows up and can earn money, he can save money to buy it for him.

"I don't know." Song Shiyu was also very single, he just wanted to tell Gu Weifeng that he just wanted someone to share his joy.

"Then think about it carefully." Gu Weifeng thought he was a child dreaming, picked up the bucket and walked back, thinking about how to earn money for food.

After picking four loads of water back and forth, the water tank was finally full. Gu Weifeng rubbed his shoulder that was sore from the pressure, and took another basin of clothes to wash without saying a word. Old man Li didn't say a word until the clothes were washed and dried.

Gu Weifeng had gotten used to it, so he turned his head and went into the kitchen to cook dinner. The family's food this month was running low, so he had to save some food, otherwise he wouldn't be able to make it to the day when he would receive the food next month.

"It's getting late, I'm going back." Song Shiyu saw that he was going to cook, and immediately got up to leave.

Gu Weifeng didn't keep him in vain, he was really paid according to the population standard, and he couldn't afford to invite him to eat.

The child left, Gu Weifeng continued with the work in hand, but his mind had already gone to the sky.

He is fourteen years old and has been in the repair shop for four years. Ever since he was picked up by old man Li that winter, he regarded the repair shop as his home and his father, but he also knew it was not.Master Li never asked him to call him adoptive father, and he also ignored him. He knew that Master Li didn't want to see him. Picking him up was like picking up a kitten or puppy. He didn't worry about it at all. Know.

Even so, he couldn't be more grateful.

The meal was ready soon, and he came out to greet Old Man Li: "Master Li, the meal is ready."

There was a basket on the table in the main room. In the basket was a large steamed bun made of white flour and cornmeal, a palm-sized steamed bun, half a bowl of cold spinach, a plate of black pickles, and two bowls of porridge.

There is not much food, but there is a lot of water spinach, which he exchanged with the nearby villagers for the pigweed he collected early in the morning.After boiling hot water, add some salt, mix with shallots from the yard, and add two drops of sesame oil, the taste is quite decent.

Old man Li picked up Erhe noodle steamed buns with a straight face and ate them slowly, without even looking at the kid eating steamed buns opposite him.Seeing him is even more angry, wasting food.

After finishing his meal and putting the bowl on the table, he sank into his recliner again and continued to listen to the radio.

Washing the pots, washing dishes and tidying up the table, Gu Weifeng went into the small west room where he was staying after finishing his work.

It is said that it is a small Westinghouse, but it is really small. It was originally used to pile up sundries. When old man Li picked it up, he collected it as sundries and left it alone.He arranged it himself, and at least made room for a place to sleep.There is no decent furniture in the room, the bed is made of two broken door boards with a few bricks and an old mattress. At the foot of the bed is a cardboard box, which holds his few clothes. year's nest.

Fortunately, Gu Weifeng is a hard worker, he tidied up the hut neatly, and lived comfortably.

Feeling full of water spinach or empty stomach, he once again looked forward to growing up quickly, and when he was sixteen, he would be able to earn money and issue food stamps to support himself, and he would no longer need Master Li to share rations with him.He can fill his stomach and honor Master Li.In his heart, he regarded Master Li as a useless father.

Can't help but think of the candy in the afternoon again, it's so sweet.
