7. Class reunions

A group of people saw that there were no adults at home, so they got up lawlessly, laughed and laughed at will, walking around inside and outside the house, some watching television, some eating apples, some reading, some lying down, and some sitting; Zhou Daqing went to the Lao Yin restaurant in Zhuangkou to buy seven or eight cold dishes, and there were two dishes fried by his mother at home, and he felt that it was not enough, so he asked Wang Jianwu to pick a few cucumbers and a few tomatoes in the vegetable garden at the door, and Wang Jianwu went to the vegetable garden and picked green peppers and eggplants very unceremoniously.

Zhou Daqing looked at it and said, "Why are you picking green peppers and eggplants, you can fry them." Wang Jianwu said: "Liu Yu will fry." Zhou Daqing said in surprise: "He still has this hand, hurry up, call him over." ”

Liu Yu was moving the table to prepare for cold dishes, and when he heard Daqing call him, it turned out that he was asking him to stir-fry. So he immediately boasted: "My skills are not bragging, I must be better than Master Dong in the school cafeteria, and Old Man Dong is still called a dish...... when he stir-fries." ”

Ma Feiyang was also very surprised and asked: "Liu Yu, when did you learn this craft?" Gu Zhiming continued: "You don't know yet, his second uncle is our chef here, and whenever we have something to do at home, we usually invite him to be the second uncle." Wang Chuang smiled: "This is a family handicraft." ”

Wang Jianwu said: "Don't blow the cow, hurry up, we're all hungry." Liu Yu said: "You don't understand anything, just ask me to fry, do you know, the chef is just stir-frying, and there are a lot of odd jobs, and someone has to do it, such as washing vegetables, choosing vegetables, cooking pots, and brushing dishes...... Hee-hee...... Ha ha....... ”

Zhou Daqing scolded with a smile: "You kid, the dishes haven't been fried yet, and you have started to call the little workers, come on, come on, we are all here, what do you want us to do, now we all listen to you." ”

So Liu Yu immediately arranged: "Wang Chuang, you wash the cucumbers, tomatoes, eggplants, and peppers, Daqing brings seven or eight eggs from your house, is there any sugar at home? If there is no Gu Zhiming, you go to the small store in front of you to buy it, Feiyang, you wash all the dishes, you boil the pot in the river boat, Jianwu, you go and set the table, and the cold dishes you bring are served first......

Jiang Boat smiled: "Oh, you can stir-fry the vegetables." Liu Yu said with a smile: "I'm a technical job, and you can't come, if you talk about hard money, don't look at you being busy to death, and in the end you can only drop a little money, and the chef will take more money." ”

When he spoke, the cucumbers, tomatoes, peppers, and eggplants had been washed and placed on the small table next to the stove, and Daqing said: "Okay, okay, now everything is done, it's up to you, if you don't get it right today, we'll eat you." Liu Yu said that it was no problem, and then started to move.

Liu Yu first cut the cucumbers into small pieces and piled them on a plate, saying that the cucumbers were eaten like this; took the tomatoes and cut them into petals, and then pickled them with sugar; he cut the eggplant into small pieces, put them in boiling water and boiled them for a short time, then scooped them up, and poured them with mashed garlic, saying that these were not three dishes. Finally, I started to fry the green pepper eggs, only to listen to the spatula touch the pot clanging, and after a while, the kung fu green pepper eggs have been out of the pot, and it is really steaming and fragrant. Everyone was amazed at a glance, and they all said that Liu Yu was good at craftsmanship and would be able to open a hotel soon, Liu Yu was flattered by everyone, and his heart was even more beautiful, and he felt that he was already the owner of the hotel.

All the dishes have been served, everyone sat around the table, and was about to start, Daqing said: "Don't be busy, don't be busy, there are good things." After saying that, he smiled slyly, turned around and went to the house to get a bottle of liquor and came out.

As soon as everyone saw that it was wine, they immediately became nervous and excited, because for everyone, this may be the first time to drink in the real sense, some people may have taken a sip at home, some people may have taken advantage of the adult's unpreparedness to drink a glass, some people may have drunk red wine and champagne, but that is not drinking at all, now the real wine is in front of you, you can immediately drink it like adults, and you feel that you are different from your previous self.

It turns out that drinking wine is the beginning of a person becoming an adult, and the moment he holds a wine glass is an adult etiquette.

The wine is poured into a bowl, and a bottle of wine is instantly clean. Wang Chuang said: "The heroes of Liangshan drink wine with bowls. Zhou Daqing opened his eyes and walked up heroically: "We are the heroes of Zhouzhuang, and we also come to a big bowl to drink wine and eat meat...... Ha ha....... "The next thing is that you come and I push the cup and change the lamp, and while drinking and eating, I say that Liu Yu's dishes are really good. Although everyone drank for the first time, they felt like old friends who hadn't seen each other for many years. As soon as the wine reached his mouth, he felt spicy, but after drinking two glasses, the spicy sensation disappeared, so he drank it. This wine is drunk without the cover of adults, or the wine is too little to talk about.

Soon a bottle of wine was drunk, but everyone was still unsatisfied, Zhou Daqing took another bottle, this second bottle of wine can already see everyone's amount of wine, Zhou Daqing Liu Yu has not changed, Ma Feiyang thinks it's okay, Wang Chuang wants to vomit a little but can't vomit, Gu Zhiming has drunk and vomited, Wang Jianwu's face is red and I don't know to what extent, Jiang Boat already feels dizzy.

Zhou Daqing saw that Gu Zhiming had vomited, so he asked Gu Zhiming to eat, and asked the rest of the people if they wanted to take another bottle, Ma Feiyang said that he couldn't do it, he would drink more, Liu Yu wanted to go up again, Jiang Chuan didn't want to call it but pretended to be nothing, Wang Jianwu waved his hand and said not to go up. Ma Feiyang said: "Forget it, it's a lot to drink two bottles today, you see that Gu Zhiming is already drunk, and I have to send him home later." Who knew that Gu Zhiming came suddenly: "I...... I... It's okay, I threw up... Feel good again, come on, come again...... Again. Liu Yu pressed him and said, "Don't talk, you eat quickly, it's none of your business." ”

Zhou Daqing saw that Gu Zhiming was already drunk, Wang Jianwu's face was already red, Wang Chuang would hang up if he drank again, and he was afraid that his father would come home and ask for blame after drinking too much, so he took the opportunity to say: "I won't drink it today, let's drink it again another day when Feiyang notice comes, come, eat." The rest of the people no longer insisted, and took bread to eat. A table of dishes was eaten clean.

After eating, except for Gu Zhiming, who lay down on Daqing's bed, the rest of the people immediately got busy, some brushed the dishes, some swept the floor, and some wiped the table, and after a while, everything returned to its original state.

Several people went into the house to see Gu Zhiming, who had fallen asleep with his face up. Zhou Daqing said: "Let him sleep for a while." After speaking, they all came to the courtyard to chat, Ma Feiyang asked Zhou Daqing: "Which martial arts novel are you reading now?" Everyone laughed.

Ma Feiyang said: "Which one are you reading now?" Daqing said: "I am the next book, and the upper and middle books are all in Wang Chuang's place." Ma Feiyang turned to Wang Chuang and pretended to be angry and said, "What are you doing with two books? Give me one quickly, you are really, you are simply a full man who does not know that a hungry man is hungry." Wang Chuang smiled and said: "Okay, you can go and get it, I'll give it to you, how about Mr. Ma." Liu Yu asked Ma Feiyang: "When will the results come out?" Ma Feiyang said: "It should be soon." ”

Speaking of this, I heard Zhou Daqing sigh: "Hey...... You who go to school, who go to business, who learn trade, who learn craft, I don't know what to do. Wang Jianwu looked at him and said, "Didn't you say that you want to be a soldier?" and several of them said together: "Being a soldier, he can't be a soldier now." ”

Wang Jianwu touched his head and smiled: "Hey, I forgot, then go to vocational middle school like me." Jiang Chuan said: "Going to vocational middle school is purely a blind delay in time, it is better for me to learn to drive, what major are you going to study in vocational middle school?" Wang Jianwu said: "I don't know where it is, let's talk about it when the time comes, why don't you go to school." ”

Liu Yu said: "I don't want to go to school anymore, I've had enough." Wang Chuang tilted his head and said: "Actually, I still want to go to school, but my father said that I don't think you can go to school, so you will get on the boat with me after graduation, and I have to leave when the boat comes back." ”

Zhou Daqing looked at Wang Chuang, and he didn't know whether to be happy for him or unhappy for him, and said, "You can, you have a big ship at home." Jiang Chuan asked Wang Chuang's boat how big it was, and Wang Chuang replied, "It's eighty tons." ”

Wang Chuang continued: "Hey, you don't know, it's uncomfortable to die on the ship, and it will take ten days and half a month to get down as soon as you get on the boat, which is cramped." Zhou Daqing suddenly said: "I'm going to go out to work in the south." When everyone heard this, they all asked him where he was going to work, and who was he going to work with? Daqing thought for a while and said: "I haven't thought about it yet, but I think how many people are going to work in the south now...... Wang Jianwu continued: "Those who normally go out to work must be accompanied by acquaintances, do you have anyone outside?"

Zhou Daqing paused for a while and patted his thigh: "Hey, what are we talking about, the ship enters the gate directly, and the living can still suffocate urine, everything will go naturally." After saying that, he let out a long breath, and as soon as he said this, the slightly depressed atmosphere immediately became active again.

Liu Yu stretched his waist and said: "It's still Feiyang and promising, and when the time comes, he will be assigned a job as soon as he graduates from school, and he will be a state worker at that time, which is different from us." Ma Feiyang said this in his heart, and the rest of the people also said yes, Daqing said: "You are not talking nonsense, people Feiyang has that head, do you have it." ”

Although Ma Feiyang didn't have their anxiety in his heart, he said in his mouth: "Hey, what are you talking about, it's not that you haven't gotten the notice yet." Liu Yu said: "Isn't that a matter of time?" He asked Ma Feiyang again: "Have you gone to play with Gentle in the past two days?" Ma Feiyang said no. Wang Chuang smiled and continued: "Oh, Mr. Ma, you have to learn from Jiangchuan at this point, you see that the Jiangchuan is now flirting with Gui Yizhi and scolding each other......" Before he finished speaking, Jiangchuan came over to press Wang Chuang's head, and Wang Chuang saw him coming and hurriedly dodged.

Jiang Chuan smiled and said: "Feiyang also has to hurry, anyway, it's okay to be at home on vacation now, go to her house every day, find him out for a walk, or go to the county seat to watch a movie." "Everyone said that the river boat was passing on experience.

Jiang Chuan said and asked Daqing: "Aren't you chasing Zhao Tiantian, how is the progress now?" Zhou Daqing laughed and said: " The day before yesterday, I went to her house to look for her, her mother happened to be at the door of the house, I said I came to find Zhao Tiantian, her mother said who are you, what are you looking for her, I said it was Zhao Tiantian's classmate, I panicked and said to send a book to Zhao Tiantian, her mother stared at me and said that the book should be handed over to me, I have no books, I had to say that I came to Zhao Tiantian to borrow a book, I was sweating all over my body, her mother looked at me for a long time, said Zhao Tiantian was not at home, what to borrow, we don't have any books at home, I have nothing to say, so I came back. ”

After finishing speaking, everyone leaned back and laughed, and after laughing, Wang Jianwu said: "That's it, Daqing, you write a love letter, hand it to the river boat, and then ask the river boat to hand it to Gui Yizhi, let Gui Yizhi hand it over to her, and then let Gui Yizhi ask her out." As soon as he said this, everyone said yes, Zhou Daqing scratched his head and said, "How can I write any love letters." ”

Wang Chuang said: "You can't write, let Feiyang write, isn't this a ready-made talent." Ma Feiyang hurriedly said: "I don't know this thing, I haven't written it, if I could write it, wouldn't I have written it to Wen Rou a long time ago?" Liu Yu turned his face and asked Jiang Chuan: "Don't you know how to write, you tell me how to write." Jiang Chuan smiled: "I don't need to write, I just tell Gui Yizhi that I love you, just do it." After that, everyone laughed again.

Saying this, he looked back at the time suddenly, it was almost four o'clock, Ma Feiyang said call Gu Zhiming to wake up and go home, Liu Yu went into the house and called Gu Zhiming, a group of people came out of Daqing's house and said a few more words, and went their separate ways.

That night, Ma Feiyang tossed and turned and couldn't sleep, the gentle figure dangled in front of him, laughing for a while, and angry for a while, they sometimes walked hand in hand on the river embankment, sometimes chasing among the flowers, and suddenly for some reason the gentleness shook his hand away, the figure went farther and farther, and he couldn't do anything about it, thinking like this, he decided to go to the gentle house tomorrow.

When he got up the next morning, Ma Feiyang suddenly thought that he couldn't go today, because his relatively new sneakers hadn't been brushed yet, so he immediately started brushing his shoes. When my sister saw the puzzled look on her face and asked him what he was doing with his shoes early in the morning, Ma Feiyang smiled and said, "It's nothing, I just feel that my shoes are dirty, so I have to brush them." My sister said, "It's not too dirty, I think I'll wear it for another week." My sister didn't care too much and went out without asking, but Ma Feiyang still buried herself in brushing her shoes.

The shoe brush was placed on the grinding disc in the yard, and Ma Feiyang felt that this would allow him to receive full sunlight and dry faster. In the afternoon, when the sun ran away, it seemed that he had turned around and gone home, and then Ma Feiyang tried on his shoes, which were still quite damp, and put them on the roof, so that the wind could blow more. At night, I took off my shoes and touched them with my hands, hey, it's done, Ma Feiyang took the shoes to the house and put them on the table, and set them up.

It was another difficult night, Ma Feiyang only felt that his thoughts of tenderness were getting heavier and heavier, and he just wanted to see her immediately. I think of how beautiful it was to be able to see gentleness every day at school, no matter what, and to be able to play with her long hair, but it's a pity that such days are over all of a sudden, and now it's so difficult to even see each other. Thinking like this, Ma Feiyang began to pack up.

The gentle family lives in the town, her father Wen Xueling works in the town's supply and marketing cooperative, and her mother Zhao Meifang's maiden family is an old household in the town. When the supply and marketing cooperatives were at their peak, her mother didn't do anything all day long, just playing mahjong and perming her head, seeing that people ignored her, she didn't have anything to say, and everyone who knew said that her teeth could plow the land. The world is impermanent, the supply and marketing cooperatives are gradually declining, and her mother is also angry. Wen Wen also has a sister, who is already married, and was in love with a police officer from a police station at that time, and she was about to talk about marriage, but when Zhao Meifang knew that the policeman still lived in the countryside, she didn't agree, and the police came to the door and bombarded Lao Yuan. Then he asked the gentle sister to introduce a county department store to work, who was thin and dark, but it was an old family in the county and had a house. The gentle sister couldn't resist it, so she got married.

When Ma Feiyang arrived at Wen Wen's house, Wen Rou was watering flowers in the yard, wearing a white dress, only revealing two white arms, and the long hair of the shawl slipped down naturally when she bent down to water it, so she brushed it with her hand and put the long hair behind her ears.

Ma Feiyang stood at the door and looked stunned, gently felt someone, looked back, "Oh, why are you, when did you arrive?" Gentle put down the kettle, beckoned him to come in, Ma Feiyang entered the courtyard, and saw that the east side of the courtyard is a garden, there are not only flowers and vegetables in the garden, there are a few pots of flowers outside the garden, it is Gentle is watering, there are two rooms on the west side, one of which is the kitchen, the courtyard has been all covered with cement floor, it looks clean and tidy.

Ma Feiyang has not seen gentleness for many days, this time he only feels extremely fresh, although it is just a few days, he feels that gentleness has grown up again, as if he has been away for a few years. Gently asked: "Is there anything wrong with me?" Ma Feiyang said: "It's okay, I'll come over to see you when I pass by your house, what are you doing at home?" Gentle replied: "It's okay now, help my mother look at the store at home, and sometimes cook." ”

Ma Feiyang smiled: "You can also cook? Gentle smile: "What can I do, I will cook some porridge, that's too simple." So Ma Feiyang told her about the dinner at Zhou Daqing's house the day before yesterday, of course, omitting the plot of drinking, only saying that Liu Yu's craftsmanship was too good, and said that when you play together again, you will also try Liu Yu's craftsmanship. Gentle sounded funny, and said that she didn't expect Liu Yu to cook food.

The two came to the house while talking, gently poured water for Ma Feiyang to drink and asked him: "Do you still read and study at home?" Ma Feiyang thought that if I didn't read and study now, would Wen Rou think that I was no longer working hard, and would she think that I was not ambitious, so she only replied: "I still read books." "I thought: Isn't it a book that I'm reading a martial arts novel now, and Mr. Jin Yong's martial arts novel level is quite high.

Gentle smile: "I'm still reading now, you're going to teach soon, oh, by the way, I'll have to call you Teacher Ma soon." After speaking, he stretched out his tongue mischievously, Ma Feiyang was so embarrassed that she was embarrassed, and remembered that Liu Yu also called him Teacher Ma, and I just wanted to get the results of the high school entrance examination down quickly, and I didn't need to hide it at that time.
