Xu Na ate the snacks given by Uncle Dong and said mournfully: "My dad said that he cared about the families of the martyrs, but as a result, no one could eat the things he sent!

Qiao Lin said: "The city leaders still remember Uncle Dong, it's really good! They can't care about it, can't we just do it?"

Jolene's words elicited a chorus of approval, and the children began to discuss it. They unanimously agreed that the top priority was to get Uncle Dong a puppy, as much as possible like before, to be healthy and healthy, and to live for a long time.

But soon a new problem came, Xu Na said distressedly: "Stray dogs, most of them have problems, and they are not easy to catch; but it is too expensive to buy a dog in the pet market, my mother just bought a butterfly dog, which cost nearly 4,000 yuan." ”

After that, don't forget to make up for it: "The key is that the dog is ugly to death!"

The friends don't care about their appearance anymore, and the number "4000" has scared them so much that they don't dare to speak. Qiao Jianjun complained while cleaning up the table: "There are so many good dogs in the countryside, so many that they can't be given away, and people in the city still spend a lot of money to buy dogs, it's really incomprehensible." ”

"Yes, there used to be a lot of puppies at the fourth grandmother's house, all of them are very cute, I play with them every day!" Qiao Lin said, and suddenly realized: "Since we can't afford a dog, let's get a dog from the countryside!"

Min Jia sighed: "But we still have to take the final exam, and now we can't go back to grandma's house!"

Qiao Lin smiled mysteriously: "Isn't there Wei Chenglin! He happened to go to the countryside and asked him to find a way to bring a puppy back, I don't believe he can't even do this." ”

Sun Ruiyang agreed: "Good idea! Let Cheng Lin try it!"

Qiao Lin called Wei Chenglin and turned on the speakerphone, and the children talked about it word by word, and the discussion was so lively. Wei Chenglin finally said that although this task was very unexpected and arduous, he would strive to complete it and find a dog similar to the previous one and give it to Uncle Dong.

Qiao Lin told him uneasily: "Don't remember your appearance wrongly, you have to look for it!"

Wei Chenglin said: "Don't worry! That dog has bitten me for so many years, can I still remember what it looks like?"

The children laughed together, and the laughter could be transmitted to Uncle Dong's house next door. Yang Shu was brushing the bowl in the back kitchen, quite envious: "Uncle, has your atmosphere here always been so good?"

"Huh?" Qiao Jianjun has lived here for a long time and has not considered this problem. The children outside were still chattering and discussing, talking and laughing, and he felt relieved, so he said to Yang Shu: "What kind of atmosphere is good? The children are fooling around, and we don't bother to care!"

Poplar stared at them and said enviously, "This kind of nonsense is so good!"

It's rare that Li Lanzhi is not at home, and this group of children can change their ways to make trouble. They all hope that it would be good if Li Lanzhi could travel a lot, so that they can come here often to play.

Qiao Lin heard her father say that her mother went to Beijing to participate in training, and maybe she could be promoted when she came back. Anyway, her mother won't buy her gifts, nor will she give her more pocket money, and whether she is promoted or not will have no effect on her, so she has no expectations for her mother's promotion. She just felt that it was good that her mother was not at home, and the students of the second middle school were relieved that she was also very free at home, and she could even secretly watch Kaka.

However, Qiao Lin was a little puzzled, even Yang Shu could see it, and he asked Qiao Lin mysteriously: "Why is Teacher Li unhappy when he leaves, and Uncle Qiao is not happy?"

Jolene thought about it carefully, Dad is not very happy these days, could it be that they have a deep relationship with husband and wife, and they haven't been separated for so long? She didn't bother to think about it, anyway, she had a lot of fun with her friends.

At seven or eight o'clock in the afternoon, Wei Chenglin finally came back, he was holding a cardboard box, and as soon as he got into the wonton restaurant, a fluffy dog head emerged from the top of the box.

"Wow!

Jolene carefully took the puppy out and held it in her arms. Wei Chenglin ran sweating profusely, and said proudly: "This little thing didn't follow me at first, and ate my three ham sausages before it followed me." I pulled and urinated on the way, and changed three boxes, but it made me sick to death! Fortunately, my mother was driving, and if I took the bus, I would have to be driven down by the driver!"

Jolene's eyes were full of adoration: "You're amazing!"

Wei Chenglin habitually put his hands in his pockets, his legs trembled slightly, and he felt handsome out of the sky. He still squinted his eyes, and even smiled evilly, but finally said casually: "What is this little thing?"

Jolene suddenly became alert: "By the way, you didn't steal this dog, right?"

Wei Chenglin shouted: "How is it possible? This is my aunt's neighbor's house, and I inquired for a long time before I found this family with a dog." I also played a tune on his broken electronic keyboard, and they promised to give me the dog. ”

Qiao Lin smiled again, stood on tiptoe and touched his head, and said, "Hehe, Xiao Chenglin has grown up!"

After finishing speaking, she lowered her head and concentrated on teasing the dog, but Wei Chenglin was stunned. The small hand dangled in front of his eyes, and the residual warmth of the hand remained on his forehead...... He subconsciously touched it and laughed stupidly.

I heard that because of saving him, Sun Ruiyang and Qiao Nan were rewarded, and the friends of Jixianglu were still eating here. Wei Chenglin's heart was mixed, with remorse and envy, but more of it was relief. If he could turn back time, he would definitely erase this experience from his life. But there is no "if" in life, since it is over, let it pass!

Sending Wei Chenglin away, Qiao Lin was reluctant to go home, fed the puppy a piece of roasted sweet potato, and gave it milk, she wanted to feed it delicious again, but was stopped by Yangshu.

"The puppy can't be fed like this, you put it to death, what's the matter?"

Jolene grinned and repeated his Northeast accent, "What's that going on?"

Yang Shu said with a smile: "Don't learn from me, send it to Uncle Dong quickly! The more you raise it, the more reluctant you are to send it." ”

"Oh......" Jolene was reluctant, she had long wanted to have a dog, but her parents would definitely not agree. Mom said a long time ago that the dog and she can only have one, let her watch the choice. Jolene doesn't have the ability to stand on her own, so she can only choose herself. She gently stroked the puppy's ear and said reluctantly: "If you send it over now, it seems too deliberate! When I go to school tomorrow morning, I will leave it at the door of Uncle Dong." If he asks, you will say that you don't know, and you will say that this is probably the reincarnation of the ingot, and he has returned home. ”

"It's ...... home"

Qiao Lin's unintentional words hit Qiao Jianjun and Yang Shu's hearts fiercely. The girl didn't know what it was like to be sad, and still played with the puppy, while the two big men had their own thoughts and were silent.

Early the next morning, Qiao Lin and Wei Chenglin came to the wonton restaurant, Qiao Jianjun had already gone out to buy, and Yang Shu was left to make wontons in the store. The little milk dog snorted and walked about, staggering, wrestling, and finally sat down beside the poplar tree, and looked at him with a humming and chirping, as if he wanted something to eat.

Yang Shu turned his head away: "Linlin, get it away! I can't bear to send it away for another day or two!"

"Oh......" Jolene was sad, but quickly packed the puppy into a large box, which was so large that the puppy would never be able to climb out, and there were a few old sweaters in it, making sure it couldn't freeze it.

Qiao Lin finally kissed the puppy and told carefully: "Little dog, accompany Uncle Dong well, I'll go to play with you when I'm free!"

Qiao Lin picked up the box, but suddenly said "ah", Wei Chenglin was startled, and Yang Shu also ran out of the back kitchen. Jolene shook her leg and said, "My knees seem to be stretched, and now it's fine." ”

After that, she put the box at the door of Uncle Dong as quickly as possible, and pulled Wei Chenglin to run away. Perhaps there were auditory hallucinations, and the low barking of the puppy "whining" was heard along the way, as well as the sound of the little paws baring on the cardboard box. Running to the school gate, Jolene finally couldn't hold back her tears.

Wei Chenglin had long expected her to cry, and he smiled bitterly: "Sister Linlin, you are really sentimental!"

"Go away, you're not allowed to look!"

Qiao Lin drank fiercely, but Wei Chenglin smiled, took out a tissue from his schoolbag, and said, "I knew you liked dogs so much, so I would have brought one more!"

"I don't think about getting a dog for a day or two. Jolene said aggrievedly: "But my mother doesn't like cats and dogs very much, and I definitely can't raise them." ”

"Then I'll raise one, why don't you come to my house to play with it?"

"Can that be the same?" Once the seed of raising a dog sprouts in the heart, it can never disappear. Jolene said to herself, "If I get into the top three of the class this time, I wonder if they will agree?"

The afternoon sky was clear, but a gust of sea breeze brought a burst of snow without warning, and even though the people of the port city were accustomed to seeing this scene, they were still amazed. Jolene pillowed on her arm, staring blankly at the "sun and snow" outside the window, thinking of her brothers and sisters in the distance. It's almost the Chinese New Year, if they come back together and ask their parents to keep a dog, their parents will definitely agree, right? It's a pity that none of them can come back. If she had a puppy with her, she wouldn't be so lonely.

After the evening self-study, snowflakes fell in the sky again, and the fine snow flew under the dim street lamp, which made people feel very melancholy. Jolene touched her knee, which was still aching. She didn't care much, she always felt that it was a psychological effect, as long as she didn't want to, it wouldn't hurt.

"Jolene!"

Jolene looked up in response, only to find Poplar standing under the street lamp waiting for her, holding an umbrella and holding an umbrella in his hand. Qiao Lin ran over quickly and asked, "Brother Yang, what are you doing here?"

"Uncle Qiao asked me to send you an umbrella, the snow is too big!" Yang Shu wore a blue and black down jacket, and his ears were red from the cold.

Jolene couldn't help but complain: "My dad is really, I ran two steps and went back, and I bothered you to run this trip." Let's go!"

Poplar rubbed her hands, smiled innocently, and followed Jolene. On the days when Li Lanzhi was on a business trip, Qiao Lin didn't want to go home alone, so she took Zhao Linlin to live in her own house. The two of them went to the store for supper first, but found that Qiao Jianjun was drinking with Uncle Dong. Uncle Dong's face was red, and the smoke rings were also red, of course, he wouldn't admit that he was crying.

"Linlin, something strange happened today!"

Jolene deliberately pretended not to know: "What's the strange thing?"

"The ingots I raised are back!" Uncle Dong took a sip of wine, and his eyes became hazy: "As soon as I opened the door today, I saw a puppy at the door, which was exactly the same as the ingots when I was a child." I asked around here, but no one knew where the puppy came from. Or can the people in your family speak, your dad and poplar both said that this is the ingots are back!"

Uncle Dong raised his head and said, "I'm thinking, whether it's a human or an animal, if you go around the sky, will you really remember the way back?"

Qiao Jianjun poured him a glass of wine and said, "Yes, of course it will!" Those who have already left, going around and around, will definitely find it back, even if it takes a long time, but they will come back after all." ”

With the strength of the wine, Uncle Dong still couldn't help crying, and his voice of "Da Ming" was heartbreaking. Qiao Jianjun also wiped his face, Qiao Lin knew that his father remembered his past. After all, Dad has lost a lot of people in his life!

Qiao Jianjun was still very strong, and after he wiped away his tears, he laughed loudly: "You are really a person, you helped me work for nothing, and I couldn't help it, so I hired Yangshu." I want you to rest, you're still angry with me!"

Uncle Dong also smiled: "The dead can rest, I can still move, so I don't want to rest!"

"Okay, then you have nothing to do and continue to help me! Anyway, that kid in Poplar still has to prepare for the exam, and if you come to help, he can study a little longer." ”

The two girls ate a few ravioli and went home, and Poplar silently followed behind to see them off. Jolene loves the creaking sound of stepping on the new snow, and she also likes the snow covering the world, and the snowflakes bury all the joys and sorrows, so the whole world is very quiet.

She was still thinking about what her father had just said - what she had lost again, after going around and around, could she really come back?
