Chapter 6 We, Is This Really Country?
The schools in the countryside are a little strange, not only do they have no names, but more than a dozen teachers in the class are called by code names, they are from number one to a dozen, they are wearing black robes all the time, with horn masks on their faces, so that people can't see their looks clearly, everyone has a strong local accent, only the nameplate with the number on the body can make people identify them, they never need to be paid, they don't need to eat, and the previous principals don't know their origins, but this does not prevent the pure countrymen from respecting these people who have contributed to the cause of education since their grandparents。 Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info - Principal Peng of a rural school wrote in his diary.
A few friends chatted together, not knowing the season, so when Qiao Jing remembered to go home, it was already moonlight, the street lights were deserted, and the sky was beginning to flutter with snowflakes.
The soles of the feet stepped on the snow and ice chips to make a popping sound, and the family was afraid that they had already fallen asleep. Qiao Jing held her hands and followed the snowflakes, looking up, the blue moon in the sky was already very large, and the red moon was only a little faintly visible. The day after tomorrow, the blue moon will be gone, and the red moon will be replaced by a red moon.
"Shizun. A familiar man's voice came from behind him, and Qiao Jing turned around, it was a slender man wearing a black trench coat and a black hood.
The man took off his hood, revealing eagle-like eyes, messy hair and beard, revealing a middle-aged man who was so unkempt. On that dump-like face, only eagle-like eyes shone like jewels abandoned in the dump. The middle-aged man was still carrying a large bag of food in his left hand and a box of instant noodles on his left.
"Dad!" Qiao Jing shouted softly, and in such an environment where the needles were falling, her voice needed all her attention to be heard.
"Tomorrow is the Blue Moon Festival, I bought a lot of food and came back!" the middle-aged man smiled: "In addition, it is not a lady's politeness to see my father's face as a garbage dump!"
"I didn't say that. Qiao Jing turned her head and blushed slightly, and Qiao Jing said to help her father pick up the bag of food.
"When you were a child, you told me directly what you thought, so cute, but now you have become so shy, but it is because you have grown up!"
I was apprehensive, and of course I could only treat my father's words as if I hadn't heard them, and try to speak as little as possible. The two walked into the house.
After changing her shoes in the hallway, Qiao Jing suddenly asked, "Dad, don't you have to go on a business trip tonight?"
Qiao's father put a box of instant noodles on the table, took off his windbreaker, walked to the sofa and said, "Teacher No. 3 has passed away, I'm going to check the teacher's dormitory tonight, and I'm also going to buy something to put at home!"
He sat comfortably on the sofa, took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket, broke a flame with two fingers, lit a cigarette, and took a deep breath.
The unpleasant smell of smoke was suffocating, Qiao Jing frowned, sitting far away from her father, and the smell of smoke could not float upstream. Completely incredulous, he asked, "How could Teacher No. 3 pass away!"
The mysterious No. 3 teacher with a strong local accent and a whole person shrouded in black robes all year round has lived for hundreds of years, how could he suddenly die.
"Yes, Teacher No. 3 died too suddenly!" Seeing that his daughter didn't like it, Qiao's father extinguished the cigarette.
He rubbed his temples with both hands, and then said, "Teacher No. 3 is too old, even Principal Peng, who is now 189 years old, studied under him when he was a child, and he has no relatives or anything like that, and it is normal for him to die when he is old." “
"However, this is not something you have to care about!" said Qiao's father, put on his trench coat again, opened the box of bucket noodles, took a few boxes of instant noodles, and packed them in bags.
"Tomorrow you will eat by yourself, don't wait for me. With that, he picked up the bag with the bucket noodles and walked to the entrance.
"Wait. Qiao Jing quickly took out a box of bento from the refrigerator and handed it to Qiao's father, tilted his head to the side and said, "Take it!"
Qiao's father took the bento and touched Qiao Jing's head, put the bento in the bag, and walked out.
"I didn't make a bento for you, I just forgot to take it to school to eat!" Qiao Jing added. Although it was prepared for a long time, it was a bit shy to say that it was done specifically for you, so it became a sentence on the lips.
"I know!Oh, I remember, your Uncle Wang said that you promised to leave Lianhua to you to take care of!" said Father Qiao as he bent over to get his shoes.
"Well, until Uncle Wang comes back, I will always take care of Lianhua!" Qiao Jing responded, her heart beating and she was nervous, and she was about to reach the point.
"This is for you!" Father Qiao took out a white envelope from his pocket.
Qiao Jing took it and opened the envelope, and there was at least about 5,000 yuan in it.
"What do you want to buy in the future, just tell me or your mother, don't care about your body, the dream of the Valkyrie will slow down your brain, and you will become an idiot if you have nightmares many times!"
"Thank you~!" Qiao Jing accepted the money with a complicated expression. Don't scold me?
"You don't have to be burdened, it's good to have self-esteem, I'm proud of you, but sometimes you have to do what you can. Finally, I still want to praise you!Bento, well done!" Father Qiao said with a smile that a father should have.
"Such a straightforward compliment, I am not a child. Although Qiao Jing thought so, the corners of her mouth began to bend and arc uncontrollably, and the tears that began to fill her eyes couldn't stop. Forcibly calming himself down, the tears flowed faster, and he couldn't hold back his laughter by gagging his mouth.
Qiao Jing turned around and didn't let her father see her embarrassment.
"It's still the same as when I was a child!" sighed Qiao's father, who changed his shoes, put on his hood, and got up to open the door. Outside the house, some snow-white snowflakes floated in, and he walked out without looking back. touch, the door is closed again.
After her father left, Qiao Jing washed her face with cold water and calmed down completely, looking at the bags of ingredients on the table, she was in a good mood, rolled up her sleeves and said, "Well, start now, and prepare for tomorrow's dinner!"
When all the ingredients are cut and all the ingredients are ready, the hot water for bathing is ready. Qiao Jing took a beautiful hot bath, and it was already white outside the window.
The blue moon in the sky, watery in that dark sky, occupies a large area, which is particularly beautiful. The white snow in the sky, everything looked so beautiful in Qiao Jing's eyes, I wanted to pause time like this, and let the picture freeze at this moment.
"It seems that the soul has been redeemed!" Qiao Jing felt that her whole person was fluttering. After drying her hair and putting on her pajamas, Qiao Jing walked into her bedroom.
I saw that Lianhua grabbed the corner of the quilt with both hands, and kicked the rest of the quilt to the side, her body was sleeping soundly in a big character, and the corners of her mouth were curved and she didn't know what good dreams she was dreaming. Qiao Jing went up to cover Lianhua with a quilt, and then lay down herself.
"Senior sister. Lianhua rubbed her eyes and sat up slowly.
"Did I wake you up?" Qiao Jing asked embarrassedly. There was chagrin in his heart, and he was already very cautious, but he still woke up Lianhua.
Lianhua rubbed her eyes clean, and when she saw that it was really Qiao Jing beside her, she suddenly became energetic and said, "We've been waiting for you for a long time, we caught a beautiful 'man' with Sister Jiuhong at noon today, and I'll take you to see it tomorrow!"
"What is 'manly'?" Qiao Jing asked deliberately.
is a little comfortable with Lianhua's leaping thinking, Qiao Jing knows that "manly" is definitely not a man.
"Na, it's a goldfish, let's name it 'Man', how about the name?" Wait for the dragon fruit to send us two goldfish, we have all thought of the name, one is called 'grasshopper', and the other is called 'cucumber'!" Speaking of the name of the goldfish, Lianhua's whole body was full of energy, and her face was no longer sleepy.
"Okay, okay, got it. Qiao Jing said perfunctorily, then yawned for a long time, and fell asleep in a short time.
"I fell asleep as I spoke!The adult is really unreliable!" Lianhua looked at Qiao Jing speechlessly, who had begun to snort a little, then got up and covered Qiao Jing with a quilt, and moved a chair with a pillow to sit in front of the window to watch the snow at night.
"What a beautiful snowy scene, the blue moon is so big, there are goldfish, there are small rivers, there are grasshoppers, there are cucumbers. Ah, we can't be in the countryside, right? Then we are countrymen..."So, in order to verify whether she was in the countryside, Lianhua hurriedly ran to Qiao Jing's side and grabbed Qiao Jing's arm and shook it vigorously.
"Senior sister, senior sister!"
"Huh?" Qiao Jing seemed to be awake.
"Senior sister, do you say that we are not in the countryside here, there are grasshoppers, there are cucumbers..." Lianhua carefully counted the characteristics of the countryside with her fingers, hoping to get different answers from Qiao Jing's mouth.
"Huh?" Qiao Jing was still in a fugue state, and she couldn't hear Lianhua's words clearly.
"It's really damn to sleep! It's really disappointing us!" Lianhua put down Qiao Jing's arm, hugged the pillow and ran in the living room by herself, turned on the TV and began to play back the bloody TV series I watched today,
"It's a TV series in this messy city, let's take a good look at it with rat-like eyes. “
"Whew! The schools in the city have names, but our school doesn't seem to have a name, a school in the countryside? Is it really a rural school? There are telephone poles in the city, and we also have telephone poles here, so we shouldn't be in the countryside here. “
"Hey, what are you doing at this late hour, Lianhua?" asked Qiao Min, who got up at night to go to the bathroom, sleepily.
"Xiaomin, are you a man?" asked Lianhua.
"Of course I'm a man!" Qiao Min said. "I've eaten 'Man' today!"
"Oh!" Lianhua said in a long voice. "After eating 'manly', even if you are not a 'man' now, you will become a manly man in the future. ”
"Hey, don't look at me with such suspicion!" Qiao Min said weakly.
"Then do you think we're in the countryside?" asked Lianhua.
"Of course we have here.... Also, not in the country?" Qiao Min asked uncertainly.
"You see, then we also have a movie theater and telephone poles here, so we shouldn't be in the countryside. Qiao Min pointed to the TV and said.
"Great, we're not in the countryside. Lianhua said.
"Well, we, it seems that the countrymen on our side speak in tongues. People in the city don't say that. Qiao Min added.
"Are we the only countrymen?" asked Lianhua, burying her head in the pillow.
"No matter, I'm going to sleep. Qiao Min fled.
"Sure enough, this family can't be trusted!" Lianhua said to herself.
"We're going to sleep too. She yawned, turned off the TV, and walked to her room with a pillow.
