Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Life of an Ascetic
Hailong is very grateful to the foreman Lao Gao for his understanding and care, and his heart is full of kindness to him. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 Info now comes home every night at eight o'clock in time for the weather to get completely dark, and the moon is starting to show him the way.
Xiaojuan's bicycle has not been returned to her for the time being, because Xiaojuan's big has gone out to work, and their car is also idle, and now Hailong does not have the strength to buy a car of his own, so let's use it for the time being, if it is not used, Xiaojuan will definitely blame herself.
In the past two days, Xiaojuan has not met Hailong every day when he comes over, although he knows that Brother Hailong came back very late, but he didn't expect it to be so late, she is very worried about Brother Hailong's situation. This night, she finally caught Brother Hailong, who came back at nearly nine o'clock.
"I won't return your car for the time being, and I'll talk about it after I finish this month's work, and if the ride breaks, I'll buy you a new one." Without waiting for Xiaojuan to speak, Hailong said.
"Who asked you to return the car, even if it is given to you, it is not worth much" Xiaojuan looked at Brother Hailong, who was sweaty and had open arms, and said coquettishly.
"You don't say it, it's your big thing, and it's not your dowry. Hey, it's okay, if I break down this car, I'll buy you a flying pigeon with a curved beam when you get married in the future, so do it, hehe" Hailong is cynical, and Hang Erlang should only be like this in front of Xiaojuan.
"I don't want you to buy me a dowry, let's eat." While speaking, Xiaojuan had already helped Jin Long cook a big bowl of dry noodles for Brother Hailong, which was fragrant, and Hailong was so hungry that he had already gobbled it up without saying a word.
"Brother Hailong, when you finish this time, earn enough for Brother Jinlong's tuition, let's go to the county No. 1 Middle School to report after the start of school, now there must be a lot of opportunities in the county, and you can also work part-time in addition to studying, so that you can study for yourself" After dinner, Hailong sent Xiaojuan out.
"Then I'm big, who's going to take care of him." The sea dragon came out casually.
"Why don't we take him with us? You and Jin Long are both in the county seat, and I am, besides, isn't your uncle also in the county seat, maybe he can help. Xiao Juan suddenly burst into applause for her brilliant idea.
"Come on, how can there be any reason to take my father to school, if you can't get rid of it, you will be expelled from other schools, as for my uncle, it is all the business of the older generation, and I am very reluctant to mention him." Hailong also had a better idea for Xiaojuan, but he denied it at the first time.
"You can do it yourself, you have your own ideas now, and I know I can't persuade you."
"You just study hard, if someone bullies you in No. 1 Middle School, you will find the golden dragon, you will treat him as me, and you can ask for anything." Delivered to Xiaojuan's door, Hailong admonished.
This night, Hailong tossed and turned, Xiaojuan's words reminded him again, can I take my father to school, we rent a house near the school and live together for three people, I go to work in a restaurant outside after school to earn some expenses, so it is not impossible.
Hailong's heart eager to read was resurrected again, and he seemed to see the old-fashioned antique gate of the county No. 1 middle school again, and the fragrance of books in it, which was too tempting for him.
He wanted to find a suitable opportunity to talk to Dada and see what he thought.
More than ten days have passed, Hailong has adapted to the work of the brick factory, under the scorching sun during the day, bare-chested, the hot little red bricks that have just come out of the brick kiln are transferred to the other side of the yard by rack car.
The word 'hot', the scorching sun was originally scorching, the temperature was very high, and the brick kiln that had just been extinguished had been active, and the bricks that had not yet cooled down were in contact, and the whole person was panicked.
The faucet on the side of the road is a savior, and when they can't resist it for a while, they go over and unscrew the faucet to flush their limbs and pour a few sips of cold water into their mouths.
The sea dragon's hands have not ground a layer of blood blisters, the blood blisters are better than a layer of skin off, and then they began to form calluses, and now they still faintly hurt, but compared to the pain that pierced the heart at the beginning, it is really nothing.
The weather is getting cooler, the day is coming to an end, the sun hides half of the body on the other side of the mountain, dyeing the clouds of the western sky red, the distant village is already curling with smoke, the cows are in the pen, the lambs are calling, whose women shout the child's name at the top of their voices:
"Dog, let's eat...", leaving an aftermath that echoed between the mountains.
The winding mountain road in Tangshan Village is in the direction of Long County, all the way uphill, and the road surface that has been scorched for a day is still warm.
The breeze was breezy and very comfortable to blow on the body, and the sea dragon pedaled the tall and heavy weighted flying pigeon, zigzag around and around.
The heart of returning home filled Hailong's whole mind, and he just wanted to rush back in a hurry, where there were his relatives, his home.
Suddenly, two figures appeared not far in front of him, the sea dragon was startled, and couldn't help but slow down, yes, it was two figures, and they seemed to be pushing bicycles on foot, strolling.
Hailong's mind turned sharply, he wiped his eyes, and once again he was sure that he saw two people pushing bicycles, strange, these days, every day to rush home at about half past eight o'clock, never saw people walking, but sometimes he would meet cars, the lights of his eyes could not open, he secretly scolded in his heart.
Hailong couldn't help but be stunned in his heart, although he didn't believe in ghosts and gods, but in this barren mountain and wilderness, at night, you saw two people pushing bicycles and walking on the road like walking, how could you not be afraid.
If you get out, you should think that you are dazzled. The sea dragon blinked, cleared his head, and he circled the left side of the road, picking up his pace and trying to rush over.
At the moment when they passed by, Hailong couldn't help but glance back, he didn't believe that he would meet a ghost, it was really an evil sect, and besides, he seemed to have heard the conversation between the two of them, although he couldn't hear what was said.
It was indeed two people, a man and a woman, the man was tall, the woman wore a ponytail, and the two were pushing their bicycles and walking, and now the sea dragon believed in his eyes, but their bicycle seemed to be very strange, not like they rode like this, and the back seat of the car was carrying a big bag, and everyone also carried a bag on their backs.
"Ah, is that a person... Hey..."The man on the left spoke, and it turned out to be a girl's voice.
"Well, yes, hi... Hello, please wait. The ones on the right also spoke, and they all spoke Mandarin, with accents like TV announcers, and it was clear that they were not very old and their voices were still very immature.
"What's the matter, who are you?" The sea dragon was sure that there was no one else around, and it must have called himself.
"Big brother, please wait." The boy on the right quickened his steps and hurried a few steps forward.
"Big brother, are you from here and there, can you help us, our tires were punctured, and we can't catch up with Long County today, it's all dark."
