057, into the city

This time Geng Hao refused again, Director Mo said, now that the winter vacation is over, there is no need to go to the school, and it is not good to stay in the house every day. The branch secretary made the final decision and directly asked people to arrange the brazier. I went to look at the bed where Geng Hao slept again, and felt that the quilt was too thin, so I asked someone to hug the bed again. Geng Hao's quality of life has suddenly risen to a new level.

Before leaving, the branch secretary and the director also told Geng Hao that if there was any problem, just say it directly, don't wronged yourself. Geng Hao didn't know what to say.

The brazier was arranged, and Geng Hao didn't dare to burn it when he slept at night, every time he burned a brazier, he had to ventilate it from time to time, for fear that he would be poisoned by gas and pass out in the room, and no one would know. Therefore, it is an ordeal to come out of the bed every morning, when the air is already cold and the skin shiveres at the first touch. At this time, I miss the heating of the school a little.

Nostalgia is nostalgia, Geng Hao still endured not getting a good night's sleep, put on his clothes and went out to wash with a hot water kettle and toiletries. At five or six o'clock in the morning, the temperature was still in a low state, as soon as Geng Hao opened the door, the cold wind blew on his body, and the whole person was awake, such a cold wind also gave him the illusion that he could become an iceman when he stepped out of the door. Closing the door with his backhand, he put on his jacket and went out again. In winter, keeping warm is the most important thing.

At six o'clock, a horn sounded under the ramp, Geng Hao knew that it was Huang Lin coming, picked up the flashlight, and hurriedly locked the door. As soon as you go out, put your hat on your head and turn on the flashlight. As soon as the flashlight was turned on, I saw snowflakes fluttering under the beam, and it was snowing again. The last snow hasn't melted yet, and a new layer of snow has to be stored. This year, there is indeed a little more snow.

When the cement ramps and steps were made, Zhong Xiu reminded Zhong Yunguo and his son to add some lines to increase friction, so as not to slip in rain and snow. It really worked on a snowy day. Later, there was too much snow, so Zhong Xiu made a bunch of hay, knotted the straw rope casually, made it like a carpet, and spread it on the steps, coming and going, which was more convenient.

Geng Hao boldly stepped on the straw mat and ran down, and found that the surrounding people had gotten up and were ready to start burning the brazier, no wonder Huang Lin honked the horn so directly, and he was not afraid of disturbing the people. In the past, people who usually got up at this time were the old people in the village, but now because the Chinese New Year is approaching, there are too many things, and some middle-aged people also get up at this time to start a day's housework. Only the young men and children were still in bed, waiting for seven or eight o'clock to get up.

Huang Lin's car was parked on the side of the road, with its low beams on and snow chains on its wheels. When Geng Hao approached the car, he turned off the flashlight.

"Sit in front. Zhong Ling rolled down the window of the car and greeted him in the cold wind. Geng Hao withdrew his hand to open the rear seat door, turned around and went to open the front door. As soon as he got in the car, it was a lot warmer, and the warm Geng Hao yawned for a while. Huang Lin started the car, and Zhong Ling asked with a smile, "How is it, did you get up too early and didn't sleep well?"

Geng Hao tilted his head and smiled: "It's okay." His eyes fell on the back seat and found that Zhong Xiu was also there, and Huang Jiujiu lay on Zhong Ling and Zhong Xiu to sleep. He just thought that Huang Lin was bringing a passenger, and the black mass was on the inside of the car. Zhong Xiu's spirit didn't look very good, he didn't wake up at all, and he couldn't help asking, "Zhong Xiu doesn't go to work today?"

Zhong Xiu really couldn't hold back, turned his head and covered his mouth and yawned, and then replied to Geng Hao's words: "Let the eldest sister force me to ask for leave, I don't want to let me buy clothes for Jiujiu." ”

Zhong Ling poked Zhong Xiu's head and said angrily, "What are you asking for leave? Let you, who is an aunt, show your niece's New Year's clothes, and wronged you?"

"No grievances, no grievances. Zhong Xiu hurriedly changed her words, took a deep breath, stayed awake, and squeezed out a smile, "My aunt, I must buy a beautiful new dress for my niece today!"

After hearing Zhong Xiu say this, Zhong Ling's face improved and he let her go.

The people of the village committee are on vacation every weekend, but the village has three branch secretaries, so as soon as they rest, there is basically no one on duty, unless the branch secretary has nothing to do or has something to do temporarily. If people in the village can't find anyone on the weekend, they will go to their homes to look for them, so it doesn't hurt. But since Zhong Xiu became a clerk, he has not taken a break, and he is on duty at the village committee as usual, saying that he is fine at home. Geng Hao knows all of this, so he admires Zhong Xiu's consciousness.

Early in the morning, no one was in good spirits, except for Zhong Ling and Huang Lin, the other three people all fell asleep with their heads back, and the car was a lot quieter. There was a lot of snow on the road, and a layer of ice had been rolled out of many sections, so Huang Lin had to drive attentively and carefully, for fear that if not one of them paid attention, all the people in their car would suffer. After entering the city, the snow on the road was melted by the snow melting agent, and Huang Lin was relieved.

When they arrived at the passenger station, Geng Hao, Zhong Xiu and Huang Jiujiu had to get up in a daze and get out of the car. As soon as he got out of the car, he was blown cold by the wind, and he had just woken up, so he was more likely to be cold, and immediately his body was excited several times, and all the sleepy insects were shaken off, and Huang Jiujiu went straight to Zhong Ling's arms coldly.

They said goodbye to Huang Lin, and went to the vegetable market above the three-way intersection first, Zhong Ling said that at this time, the clothing store on River Street had not yet opened, so he went to buy some groceries near the vegetable market first. At this time, it was almost eight o'clock, the sky was already dark, and the shops on both sides of the street opened earlier than usual.

They only walked to the three-way intersection of the big supermarket and walked back, Zhong Ling went to the more affordable stall to buy more than a dozen catties of melon seeds, a dozen catties of peanuts, a dozen catties of candy, and other groceries. Geng Hao, as the only male comrade, naturally took over the heavy work of carrying things, and of course, this was also the role of his trip. When he was about to arrive at the passenger station, Geng Hao's two hands were full. He didn't have anything to carry, but the plastic bag was twisted into a thin strip due to the sagging of the heavy object, and his hand was red marks, and he could only change his left and right hands from time to time.

"I'll get it for you. Zhong Xiu's hands were empty, and when he saw Geng Hao change his hand, he said it again.

Geng Hao shook his head as always and refused: "No, this little thing is not heavy." ”

"My hands are empty anyway. Zhong Xiu insisted.

Geng Hao could only be perfunctory: "Wait a while and then buy something, you can mention it." ”

"Go and see if Lao Huang is not at the passenger station now, and let him take it back directly when he goes back. Zhong Ling saw them arguing, and directly opened his mouth to solve the matter, "Put the things away, let's go to River Street to shop for clothes." ”

At Zhong Ling's suggestion, they walked directly to the passenger station. They looked for a while at the bus station, but they didn't see Huang Lin's car, and Geng Hao said that it was okay to carry things around. Zhong Ling said that he could store it in any store. Coincidentally, when they left the station, Huang Lin's car drove in.

"Dad's car!" Huang Jiujiu was the first to find out, shouted and ran behind Huang Lin's car. Geng Hao and a few of them hurriedly caught up. There are vans and buses coming and going here, and there are many people and feet, and if Huang Jiujiu is hit, it will be dangerous.

Huang Lin parked the car, and the passengers paid and got off one by one. When Huang Lin collected money to find money, Huang Jiujiu had already picked up the car window. Huang Lin rolled down the window of the car, and Huang Jiujiu exhaled white air and stuck his head in, a little face that was red from the cold and grinned.

"Dad, we bought a lot of things, Mom asked you to take them back, so we can go shopping and buy clothes. Huang Jiujiu said excitedly, seeing that Zhong Xiu and the others had already arrived at the trunk, Huang Jiujiu helped and said, "Dad, we put things in." There are melon seeds, peanuts, sugar, ......"

Huang Jiujiu counted them all the way, afraid that Huang Lin would confuse his things with the passengers'. Huang Lin was communicating with the passengers while listening to Huang Jiujiu. When the passengers got off the bus and Huang Jiujiu finished reporting, Huang Lin asked her to step aside, opened the door and got out of the car to check in the trunk for herself, so as not to really mess up in the back.

"Why are you so fast this time?" Zhong Ling saw Huang Lin coming over, helped Huang Lin sort out his clothes, and said a word of concern in passing.

Huang Lin hugged Huang Jiujiu, who rushed over, picked her up, held her in his arms, and said to Zhong Ling truthfully: "I went to Taoping Town just now, and after going down and down in the town, I picked people up." Have you had breakfast?"

"Eat, have you eaten?" Zhong Ling asked with a smile.

"Eat. Huang Lin had just arrived in town, bought a cake to eat, and casually cushioned his stomach, "Then when you want to go back, ask Xiuxiu to call me in advance." ”

"Okay, remember to eat at noon. Zhong Ling saw some passengers looking at them and wanted to get into their car, so he immediately hugged Huang Jiujiu down, "There are people, slow down on the road." ”

Huang Lin nodded, suddenly laughed, smiled quietly and sincerely, and handed over all the money he had just earned to Zhong Ling from his arms: "You can also buy a few clothes in a while, don't be afraid of expensive, expensive and durable, no loss." ”

Zhong Ling carried the money in his pocket, gave Huang Lin some money, and said perfunctorily: "I'll see for a while." You also decorate the money and eat well at noon. ”

As they talked over there, Zhong Xiu watched and guided the passengers to get on the bus, snorting at Geng Hao twice from time to time, and whispered: "Really, I don't think about us single people every time." ”

Geng Hao also felt that the relationship between Zhong Ling and Huang Lin was very good, usually the two of them don't see each other much, but when they interact, others look at it very sweetly, and they are envious when they see it, and they can't help but sigh, this is the most beautiful look of love.

Huang Lin agreed to Zhong Ling's few words of entrustment, and asked them to go shopping quickly, there were already a lot of people at this time, and it was time to have lunch later. Zhong Ling agreed, took Zhong Xiu and they left the passenger station and walked towards the river street below.

This time, Zhong Xiu grasped the topic, followed Zhong Ling's buttocks, and teased from time to time: "Sister, am I going to find you a beautiful dress in a while?" I think let's stop going to River Street, let's go to the city to have a look." ”

Zhong Ling knew that this was Zhong Xiu's joke, and it was not appropriate to be angry or happy, so he could only hold the corners of his mouth and try to keep his face serious: "If you want to buy it for me in the city, then I'll go." ”
