Chapter 55: Praise
Zhou Xiaoan touched the yellow hair on his head, and was embarrassed to ask.
However, she still didn't give up, and deliberately raised her face in front of her uncle and shook it twice, seeing that his expression did not change at all, and gave up in frustration.
Looks like I still have to work hard to make a mask!
Zhou Yuehai was completely confused, he was selected to be a scout since he joined the army, after so many years of training, he thought that his observation ability was very good, but he still couldn't understand what his niece wanted him to do with a little face full of anticipation.
He just said the wrong thing, and now he wants to make up for it, thinking of Zhou Xiaoan's hand that was almost poking his chin today, Zhou Yuehai asked tentatively: "Does your face still hurt?" The injuries to the corners of the eyes and mouth were quite serious. For the first time in his life, Zhou Yuehai lost confidence in his judgment.
Zhou Xiaoan wailed in his heart, and he was embarrassed again! The bruises on my face are still stinky!
The blow was too big, and Zhou Xiaoan instantly entered the self-protection mode with an expressionless face and didn't know how to react.
Zhou Yuehai didn't know why Zhou Xiao'an suddenly wilted, and the handful of dumb hair on his head drooped.
But this child is really interesting, that is, wilted, and her big eyes are moist and bright, which makes people feel very energetic, like a soft and naughty little animal, as long as she finds a game she likes, she can immediately be alive and happy.
Zhou Xiaoquan watched from the side, and once again entered a state of confusion.
These two people, the uncle is expressionless, the sister has a wooden face, and no one speaks, what kind of dumb riddle are they playing?
Zhou Xiaoquan is not Zhou Yuehai, he can't be like him, no matter what the situation, he can control the situation without speaking, and he can be at ease; It's not Zhou Xiaoan, if he doesn't speak, his brain is going to smoke, and he is so busy that he doesn't feel embarrassed at all.
He had to be self-reliant and try his best to liven up the atmosphere.
"Uncle, my sister and I went back to the countryside, and the biggest advantage is that we have a place to study! My sister has learned a lot of words! ”
Zhou Xiaoquan said, and took out a stack of Zhou Xiaoan's Tianzi grid book for Zhou Yuehai to see. In the past half a month, Zhou Xiaoan has written seven or eight books.
Zhou Yuehai carefully flipped through it and praised Zhou Xiaoan in his way, "The writing is very good, basically I haven't lost my strokes, it's just a little sloppy, it will be better to practice seriously in the future, and it will definitely be no problem to read and write letters." ”
Pragmatic people are like this, the more optimistic you are, the more strict you are, the purpose of praising you is to help you point out your shortcomings, give you a good prospect, and let you continue to improve.
Zhou Xiao'an couldn't comprehend the uncle's hard work, she only knew that she was criticized, and she was not serious about scribbling! It's a matter of attitude!
Zhou Yuehai once again did bad things with good intentions, and praised his little niece so ashamed that his face was flushed.
Zhou Yuehai subconsciously touched the four jacket pockets of the military uniform, fortunately touched a fountain pen, and hurriedly handed it to Zhou Xiaoan, "You write very well, use this pen to practice calligraphy, and I will send you a better one after you practice." ”
He had never been so stunned when he sneaked into the enemy's headquarters alone, for fear that he would accidentally say something and make this kid cry.
Zhou Xiaoan took the pen, and when he saw the logo on the pen, his eyes lit up, "100 heroes!" "A very collectible fountain pen, it is said that eleven of the twelve indicators exceed the Parker 100, and it is much better than the later Hero 100, which is the pride of the national industry after the founding of the People's Republic of China.
Zhou Yuehai breathed a sigh of relief, and finally coaxed the right way.
Zhou Xiaoan politely said to the uncle, "Such a good pen, uncle keep it for himself." ”
Zhou Yuehai didn't care about a pen at all, and began to feel sorry for this little niece again, just a pen with more than one piece, this child didn't dare to use it like a baby, it can be seen how hard life is.
"This is very ordinary, you take the practice first, and when you can write a letter yourself, I will send you a Pike."
Only then did Zhou Xiaoan realize that the "antiques" that were very collectible in her eyes were just ordinary daily necessities in the eyes of people in Zhou Yuehai's era.
Then she's welcome!
"Thank you, uncle, I will definitely practice my calligraphy well, and I will write to you as soon as I finish practicing!" Zhou Xiaoan didn't realize that he was in a hurry to ask for a reward when he said this, so he dismembered the pen in three or two strokes.
No way, the habit I have developed since I was a child, I am curious and eager to learn, but in fact, I owe it, and the more I like it in her hands, the more she has to take it apart and take a look.
Zhou Xiaoan carefully studied the "antiques" that he had just arrived, and Zhou Xiaoquan was very sensible to help his sister find the bottom of the stairs, "Uncle, we have no one else to write a letter, only Uncle and my third brother are in the field, and we will write to you together when the time comes." ”
Zhou Yuehai sat for a while, chatted with Zhou Xiao'an and his brother casually, understood the things he wanted to know clearly and secretly, and left.
Since she promised to help Zhou Xiaoan divorce in her way, she had to hurry up and arrange it.
The second uncle hadn't woken up yet, he slept soundly, and Zhou Yuehai didn't need him to send it in a car, and said goodbye to the second uncle and mother-in-law, "I still have something to do when I go to the commune, and it is very convenient to stop the car and go to the county when I get to the commune." Don't bother the second uncle to send me in a car, it's only more than 20 miles, and it won't take half an hour to arrive. ”
Zhou Xiaoan counted the accounts with his fingers in his heart, it is not bad for a normal person to walk ten miles in an hour, but the uncle walks more than twenty miles in half an hour, what kind of speed is that?
Zhou Yuehai said that there was no need to send it, Zhou Xiaoan and Zhou Xiaoquan still planned to send him out of the village and walk out of the house, the wife stood at the door tremblingly and waved to Zhou Yuehai, "Erhai, come back often!" No matter what, your father and mother raised you! ”
Zhou Yuehai said goodbye noncommittally and did not take the topic head-on.
Zhou Xiaoan's curiosity swished like spring grass, what was the "what" in the wife's mouth? Is it because of this "what's the place" uncle who hasn't returned to his hometown for so many years to take a look?
Emperor Brain Supplement wound herself out of the mosquito coil line in her eyes, and until she sent her uncle home, she still had a question mark in her head.
As soon as the sisters and brothers came back, they found that the atmosphere in the room was a little strange, the third wife of the clan was sitting on the kang with his cane and beard, his nostrils were whizzing and panting, the second uncle was staring at a pair of bloodshot eyes and smoking a cigarette pouch, and he was forcibly woken up from his sleep, and the wife and the second uncle were also sitting without saying a word.
"You two ignorant children! Erhai came back so easily, so let you send it away! Not sensible! It's so ignorant! If this is put in the past, you must have invited the family law to kneel in the ancestral hall again! Let's see if you dare to assert your own opinions! ”
As soon as the third prince saw the sister and brother coming back, he immediately began to reprimand, and the more he talked, the more angry he became, and he slammed his crutches on the ground, looking like he was about to do it at any time.
For the first time in so many days, the wife didn't speak with a smile, and her face was very bad, "Third child, what's the matter with the two children?" These are two good boys, don't scare them! ”
The third wife's beard turned up again, "Sister-in-law, you have sons and daughters, but you can't say anything!" I'm a lonely old man, and when I die, no one will break the flag! Can I not be in a hurry!? ”
"You are in a hurry to take a child from the clan, what's the use of finding Erhai? He has raised a family in the sea for more than ten years, and it is easy for the children to grow up, but he can be regarded as taking out his hands, and he has to find a father to serve him? ”
