After skipping school many times, Liu Ye's grades quickly dropped. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 Teacher Wang, who teaches mathematics as the head teacher, an old man with white hair and a deflated mouth, couldn't bear to run to Liu Ye's house to complain.

"Old Sister Xie, do you know, Liu Ye, this kid is very relaxed in his studies this time, and his grades have dropped dramatically! There is still a year to go to junior high school, and if she continues like this, I am afraid that there is no hope of going to junior high school. "Mr. Wang's thin and aging body swayed in the summer breeze like a bow that was dissatisfied.

"Mr. Wang, what do you say about this?" The grandmother, who was drying clothes at the door, panicked, she stopped what she was doing, hurriedly wiped her hands with her apron, and said respectfully: "Teacher Wang, come into the house and sit!" ”

Grandma let Mr. Wang sit on a mahogany chair in the hall, and she entered the kitchen in a panic, and after a while, she brought out bright fried chestnuts in oil and round fried rice balls with sugar from the cupboard for Mr. Wang to eat.

The tip of Mr. Wang's nose is surrounded by the fragrance of tea, the tip of his tongue is filled with the mellow taste of tea, and he feels the heat of the tea jar in his hands, and he is immersed in the atmosphere of respecting teachers and valuing education at this moment, so that his stinky old Jiu, who always bows his head and is a man in that era, is moved in his heart, and he praises repeatedly: "Sister Xie, your craftsmanship is really pretty!" ”

Before leaving, my grandmother poured the remaining chestnuts and rice balls from the house into the big sea bowl, covered them with a clean steamed bun cloth, and put them in a small bamboo basket for Teacher Wang to take away, "Teacher Wang, I will fry more next time, and let Liu Ye bring it to you." This time it's less, you can take care of it more!"

"Hey, that's enough, don't let the child piggyback!" Mr. Wang smiled, his long, sparse eyebrows seemed to be contagious, and he jumped happily, and his mouth with one front tooth seemed to be even more deflated.

He waved his hands again and again, and suddenly seemed to think of something, turned around, bowed his head and said to his grandmother with a serious expression, "Old Sister Xie, you have to watch Liu Ye's studies closely!" ”

When she got home at noon, Liu Ye smelled the fragrance of the red stewed meat made by her grandmother from a distance, and she happily put down her schoolbag, "Grandma, I'm hungry!" ”

As soon as my grandmother changed her usual kindness, she picked up the broom at the door and was about to hit Liu Ye, "How many points did you score in Chinese and mathematics?" Grandma looked at her fiercely, frowning, and fierce.

Liu Ye was shocked in his heart, and then pretended to be calm and whispered: "Chinese and mathematics are all 80 minutes." ”

"You, you've learned to lie!" Grandma was so angry that she trembled, her voice trembled, "Teacher Wang has come to our house today, let me see your exam papers!" Grandma picked up the broom and hit Liu Ye on the back and buttocks.

Liu Ye burst into tears, "Grandma, don't fight, can't I study hard in the future?" ”

Grandma softened when she saw Liu Ye's tears, she pulled down a towel from the red paint basin rack and wiped Liu Ye's face while chattering, "Chinese and mathematics are only 60 points, how can you take the junior high school exam like this!" ”

At this time, Liu Ye's crying had changed from shouting loudly to humming quietly, she peeked at her grandmother's red eyes, and worked hard in her heart, she must be admitted to junior high school and fight for her grandfather and grandmother.

When she went to school in the afternoon, she quietly put a basket of fragrant chestnuts fried by her grandmother on the windowsill of Teacher Wang's house, looking at the cracked openings of the chestnuts, how like smiling mouths. She secretly thanked Mr. Wang for his reminder and concern for her.

Since then, Liu Ye has changed like a person, focusing on studying. She no longer thought about the gloomy mockery of the pumpkin's face, nor did she think about Wang Liang's embarrassing concern. Yes, everything can be ignored and learning is the most important thing in mind.

At noon that day, Liu Ye had just picked up her schoolbag and was about to leave, when her grandmother suddenly grabbed her hand mysteriously, "Let's go, grandma will go to school with you today." ”

Liu Ye looked up at his grandmother, the white cotton silk placket was evenly arranged, the four plates of cloth buttons were evenly arranged on the oblique edge, a button on the armpit, and a button at the neckline. Wearing black cotton silk high-waisted pants, my grandmother never used a belt, she always had a one-inch-wide belt of blue coarse cloth that she sewed herself. My grandmother wore black corduroy shoes on her feet, too.

My grandmother was tall, but because she had been suffering from chronic bronchitis for many years, she was very thin, as if the wind would drift away like leaves, and the torture of the disease made her originally straight back look a little hunched.

Grandma's jet-black hair was combed smooth, not a single messy hair, and her hair was neatly curled at the back of her head, and then crossed with a half-moon-shaped black iron fork. The whole person looks clean and neat.

Liu Ye was a little nervous, didn't my grandmother go to the school to ask Teacher Wang about my studies. Although I have improved, I still feel weak, so I said to my grandmother anxiously, "Grandma, what are you doing at school, it will affect my studies." When I think about you at school, I lose my concentration in class. ”

"Don't worry, grandma will be good to you when she goes to school." After speaking, my grandmother took Liu Ye's hand and walked briskly towards the school.

It's the middle of June, and it's not too hot because of the leap month and the fact that it's not yet in ambush. Especially after it rained last night, the air today is exceptionally refreshing.

The tall trees on both sides of the boulevard leading to the elementary school along the river, with lush branches and leaves, are verdant, and the refreshing green shines like silver flakes in the sun, so that every cell of the person who sees it is obedient, and every pore is stretched! The branches of those trees crisscross in the air, forming a green canopy, making people walking in it feel as if they are in a green-roofed promenade.

The sunlight filtered through the gaps in the foliage, creating mottled shadows on the dirt road, making school-going children feel the urge to step on it or jump over it. When you stop to look closely, you will find that the shadows of the trees on the ground are actually moving, some swaying from side to side, some swaying back and forth, and even the shadow of a pine branch is vibrating up and down. Liu Ye raised his head curiously, and found that there was a branch above his head that was really vibrating, and the branches on the tree and the underground were completely in the same rhythm of the two vibrations. On the way to school, some children are tempted by these tree shadows, stop while walking, squat down, find a dead branch and draw the tree shadow on the ground, those shaking tree shadows are lifelike, like plants in the underwater world, giving the children in the countryside a magical and dreamy enlightenment lesson in nature.

But Liu Ye prefers to watch the scenery on both sides. Look at the clear water of the river, whose origin is unknown, and here it quietly gathers into a deep pool, and at another it rushes rapidly into a shallow spring, and at another it recklessly collides into a white waterfall on the big rock, and at another it flows into a crooked stream on the dense goose warm stones. Three or two women washing clothes, the crisp sound of mallet clothes accompanied by the gurgling water, harmoniously into a beautiful natural sound, feeding the barren country music.

Further north of the road, the blue bricks and gray tiles of the houses are hidden among the pomegranate trees, cherry trees, loofah stands, sunflowers, old pumpkins, and long beans, and the pink oleanders are in full swing. I don't know whose wall creeper weaves a thick green blanket for the whole wall, occasionally butterflies and swallows shuttle one after another, and the busy bees are diligently collecting sweetness under the flowers.

A boy with a faded military schoolbag bowed his head down the path separated by a wooden fence, his unhappy mood leaked by his listless stride.

"Pumpkin face!" Liu Ye exclaimed nervously.

Grandma glanced at Liu Ye with concern, then looked up at the boy in the distance, and nodded thoughtfully.

"Little Fuzi, come here!" Grandma shouted at the boy.

"What's the matter?" Pumpkin Face paused and asked curiously.

"Come, Grandma has brought you something delicious." Grandma said as she pulled out a handful of fruit candy from the cloth pocket she was carrying.

The pumpkin face heard that there was candy to eat, and his eyes widened, and the hara was dripping.

He jumped and ran over, glanced at Liu Ye with a hippie smile, and then his eyes were fixed on his grandmother's hand.

Grandma grabbed Pumpkin-Face's hand and placed a piece of candy in his palm.

The pumpkin face pushed the candy into his mouth, and his eyes were still greedily staring at the candy in his grandmother's hand.

"Grandma, why did you make so many sugar cubes?" Liu Ye snatched the cloth pocket from his grandmother's hand and looked at it happily.

"Xiaofuzi, do you know Liu Ye's brother?" Grandma silently glanced at the excited Liu Ye and just talked to the pumpkin face.

"Yes, yes." Pumpkin Face said without thinking.

"It looks like the summer vacation is coming soon, and his brother will be back soon." Grandma glanced at Pumpkin's face, then said meaningfully, "Her brother is back, let him play with you." ”

Pumpkin's face suddenly seemed to understand something, and stopped tasting the sugar cubes, Mom, who doesn't know, Liu Yong used to be the child of this town. He once single-handedly defeated two brothers who were years older than him.

Seeing the pumpkin's face in a daze, grandma was about to return to the cloth pocket tightly held in Liu Ye's hand, poured the candy cubes in the pocket into his schoolbag one by one, and then squatted down to help him tie the loose shoelaces, patted off the mud on his trouser legs, and then slowly stood up with both hands on her knees, her eyes were a little dizzy, her head was a little dizzy, her right hand couldn't help but press her waist, and her left hand hammered up her back behind her. Liu Ye, who was pouting and silent on the side, saw his grandmother's weak appearance, and hurriedly ran over to hammer his grandmother's back in a panic. Liu Ye glared at him, "Look at you, you've soiled my grandmother's gown!" Pumpkin Face saw that Liu Ye's grandmother's white shirt had left a black stain on her fist, and stopped her movements embarrassedly. Grandma turned around and caressed the pumpkin-faced head lovingly, and said with a pleasant face, "A classmate, it is also the fate of many years of cultivation," she turned her head to look at Liu Ye and said, "You all have to care about each other and love each other." ”

"Grandma, he soiled your gown." Liu Ye pouted, his voice was a little low, and tears came out with the words, rolling in his eyes.

"It doesn't matter, just go back and wash your grandmother." Grandma wiped Liu Ye's tears with her white handkerchief embroidered with lotus flowers, and then took the pumpkin-faced hand and wiped it for him over and over again. The pumpkin face was moved to tears.

After school at noon, he came home a little late, but his younger brother Pig Essence took the lead in snatching up the candy that his father brought back to him, and he was so angry that he beat Pig Essence, and because of his mistake, the head of Pig Essence was beaten blue, and a bag the size of a duck egg yolk was puffed up. When my mother came back, she picked up a mallet and beat him severely, and kicked him down in the yard and covered him with mud on his trouser legs. He just grabbed his schoolbag and went to school. Unexpectedly, Liu Ye's grandmother gave him so much sugar, much more than his father left for him. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but be moved and said: "Okay, auntie, promise Chairman Mao that I will never bully Liu Ye in the future!"

Looking at the backs of the children walking away side by side, my grandmother smiled with relief. Well, I don't have to go to school anymore!
