At ten o'clock in the morning, the agricultural bus drove into the Huadu Bus Terminal on time. Together with Aunt Qiu Yun and my father, I walked out of the station excitedly and happily with the bustling crowd and under the warm light of the sun.

When I looked at it, there were many buildings near and far, although they were no taller than four storeys and had a stale feel, but the scale surprised me. In particular, the gray (cement) pavement of the whole city, as well as the spacious sidewalks paved with gray bricks, made me exclaim in my heart - why is the city so luxurious?!

What a precious ocean ash, in the village, the members were willing to use only a little sand to outline the narrow gaps between the stone slabs of the grain field, and the mark was so low that the filling was dark red, while the wide and thickened pavement of the city was a very pure blue-gray. Not to mention all kinds of gas cars of all sizes, as if the world's vehicles are piled up in the city, although you can't see the busy scene of traffic, but there are only a few steering wheels and walk-behind tractors, in the countryside "bang... Boom... Bang" is eye-catching.

"Hailiu, look at your happy appearance, what are you looking for?" Aunt Qiu Yun took me by the hand and followed my father as if a family were walking, leisurely walking on the sidewalk.

"Auntie, why don't I have a little impression of the provincial city, I've obviously been here!" I looked up at Aunt Qiu Yun, looking confused.

"Yo," Aunt Qiu Yun said in surprise, "have you been to Huadu?" Auntie didn't know. I laughed a few times and proudly told Aunt Qiu Yun: "Daddy said that he brought me here when I was very young, but why does my impression of this city feel so strange at this time?" ”

"Oh," Aunt Qiu Yun replied in romantic language, "the mysterious eyes behind the veil, if you use imagination to perceive, it will gradually become clear." ”

"Auntie was making fun of me. Yesterday, I said this artistic conception for a moment, and I still found it in your eyes. ”

"Isn't that right? I'm sorry to see you. Aunt Qiu Yun smiled and asked affectionately: "Hailiu, what do you most want to see at the first moment you come to the provincial capital?" I thought for a moment and replied decisively: "A bridge, a big bridge." Aunt Qiu Yun glanced at me and asked curiously, "This is a novelty, can you tell why?" I had already thought about it, so I naturally didn't need to think about it anymore, so I opened my mouth and replied in a whimsical tone: "Isn't there a sentence in the text, 'That's a bridge, a bridge that connects the world', if there is no such bridge in the provincial city, how can we connect the world?" ”

"When you play, you have to think of the text, my current." Aunt Qiu Yun glanced at me and said thoughtfully: "How can the Mingxi River in Huadu be as wide and magnificent as the Yangtze River?" But there are many bridges in Huadu, there are General Bridge, Maple Bridge, Guyi Bridge, Chunhua Bridge, but the largest and most famous is Zhaohui Bridge, if you don't believe it, ask Daddy. After listening to these many unheard of and very good bridge names, and Aunt Qiu Yun said a lot of family treasures, I asked very enviously: "How can you be so familiar with the provincial capital, have you been here many times before?" ”

"I've been here once before, and today is the second time, but every time I have Daddy with me, I'm lucky and happy!" After Aunt Qiu Yun finished speaking, she took a deep breath and exhaled heavily. I unconsciously raised my head, and as soon as I saw her eyes, I immediately said guiltily: "Auntie, why are you crying again, it's good that I don't mention the bridge." ”

"Qiu Yun," said the father, turning his face sideways, in a gentle and comforting tone, "Don't keep thinking about the past, just think about what you will meet in fate, and believe that tomorrow will be even better." ”

"Well, Brother Daren," Aunt Qiu Yun's face flushed, and she immediately explained shyly: "Daddy, forgive me for calling you so presumptuous for the first time, I was also too emotional for a while, of course, it all depends on our current to give me courage!" ”

"Oh, what's this," said my father in a gentle and calm tone, "what a difference there is between calling my brother, calling my teacher, or calling him by his name, isn't it just one name?" As long as you don't call me the county magistrate when you meet those sycophants, I'm a common man now. ”

"Wow," I blurted out in surprise when I heard this: "Daddy really became a county magistrate?!" ”

"Giggles," Aunt Qiu Yun turned from worry to joy and couldn't help laughing. "It's true that it's been done, but is there anything fake? Don't you really know? ”

"Well, I've heard some of my classmates say it privately at school, but I'm still skeptical. Auntie, how big is the county magistrate? ”

"In the past, 'there is a product' to be called an official, and now 'no product' is also called an official, the official is big and the official is small, in fact, it is not important, the key is to be a good official who does practical things for the people, but good officials are often unlucky." After Aunt Qiu Yun finished speaking, she let out a sigh.

"Oh," I didn't care about Aunt Qiu Yun's sigh, but instead thought I was smart and asked repeatedly, "Is the official seal the official seal?" Isn't it smooth to cover more? ”

"Poof," Aunt Qiu Yun laughed happily when she heard this, and finally said jokingly, "I didn't expect our Hailiu to use humor." Even if it is, the more the big seal is, the faster it wears out, and eventually it becomes a white stone. ”

"Then save some covers." I didn't feel any humor in what I said, and I wondered why Aunt Qiu Yun found it funny and laughed, but her words made me feel that my father should be good when he was an official, so I said easily: "As long as Daddy has been a good official, no classmates will say that he is a big villain like so-and-so." ”

"Hailiu, what are you thinking?" Aunt Qiu Yun picked me up and couldn't help but circle in front of my father, and said as she turned: "How can our father be a big villain, he has more urgent things to do now, and he doesn't have time to be that official." My father was afraid that he would get in the way, so he took two steps to the side and reminded him with concern: "Look at the strength of your two intimacy, be careful not to stumble." ”

After Aunt Qiu Yun put me down, we followed my father and continued to watch the wind and scenery leisurely. Watching this and that along the way, I was both happy and amused, but my father became a loyal listener, and rarely interjected to interrupt my conversation with Aunt Qiu Yun; I walked several blocks unconsciously, and when I reached the most prosperous city center in Huadu, my father stopped in front of the department store and proposed, "Qiu Yun, what do you think?" Let's take the sea current to the department store to see what we want to buy, and then I will check the price of the teaching aids that will be prepared in advance for the opening of the school, and then go to the Zhaohui Bridge to see the scenery. Aunt Qiu Yun replied shyly and happily: "You have the final say, Brother Daren, wherever you go, I will follow the current, you are our leader!" ”

"Then I'll have to pay attention to the direction." The father said a joke, and like a leading sheep, he turned around and walked into a department store that was even more lively than a market. Aunt Qiu Yun took me and stood for a moment, and when she saw my father walking forward for six or seven steps, she said intoxicated and happy: "Hailiu, do you know? Daddy has no objection to being Auntie's brother, Auntie is already the luckiest and happiest person in the world! I didn't know what to say for a while, so I said what I was about to ask: "Auntie, how would Daddy know that you want to see the Zhaohui Bridge first?" He didn't ask. ”
