Chapter 262: Parting
Zhou Wanwan has been remembering this matter for many years, until one day she asked, Shen Guodong thought for a long time and didn't remember that he had done such a thing, "If it were now, I would do the same, but I just don't want to make you feel uncomfortable." It has nothing to do with Lao Dingtou. ”
Shen Guodong cruelly broke Zhou Wanwan's illusion about him, "If it wasn't in front of you at that time, who wanted to give you that kind of food, I would definitely not care about him." I don't think about whether other people's children can eat it, and I don't have to be responsible if I do bad things with good intentions? If you don't have a long heart, can you still blame others for not giving face? ”
Therefore, for people like Shen Guodong, it is better not to have any unrealistic illusions about him.
Grandpa Shen and a few of their old people were talking on one side of the pavilion, and a few people sat on the other side of the pergola to eat melons and blow the cool breeze, and after a long time, Dunzi carried a hemp bag and came back with a sack full of watermelons.
"You kid tricked me into going to find a sack to pick watermelons, and ran back to blow the cool breeze by myself!" Dunzi put down the watermelon and went to beat Shen Guodong.
Shen Guodong picked up Zhou Wanwan and blocked him in front of him, "Nannan, let me find a few good melons for her, haven't I finished looking for it yet!" ”
"Brother Dunzi will give you this, this is sweet." Zhou Wanwan blinked her big eyes and smiled sweeter than honey, innocently and cutely handed over the melon in her hand, "Brother Dunzi, you go to the shed to rest, it's dizzy outside." ”
Dunzi didn't feel sunburned, nor did he feel dizzy, but he was afraid of the sun every night, and even more afraid of her dizziness, so he could only let go of Shen Guodong and glared at him and went back.
"Go to me on Sunday! Let's eat sorbet and watch a movie! "Shen Guodong is a very grateful person.
"Don't go!" Zhou Wanwan patted Shen Guodong's hand. motioned for him to let himself down, "Brother Dunzi is leaving, I want to accompany him at home on Sunday!" ”
Shen Guodong glared. He should have been brought back with two sacks!
"Dunzi! Come and pick two good melons for Nannan! "Shen Guodong is definitely a person who has to take revenge on himself immediately if he is uncomfortable.
Dunzi squatted on the ground to pick a melon for Zhou Wanwan, took a knife to cut a piece on the melon buttocks, tasted it first, kept it for himself if it wasn't sweet, and found more than a dozen, but only picked out one that was satisfied, "Why do you have to taste the butt?" ”
"If the ass is sweet, the whole melon must be sweet. You can't taste it anywhere else! Shen Guodong crossed Erlang's legs and flickered there.
Dunzi nodded, and continued to pick melons relentlessly.
Zhou Wanwan glared at Shen Guodong, don't bully honest people! Take it when you see it!
Shen Guodong was unwilling. I was afraid that Zhou Wanwan would be unhappy, so I went against the yin and yang, and greeted Dunzi meaningfully, "Don't pick." If you really don't have a good baby, you won't eat it. ”
Of course, Dunzi can't let his sister not be able to eat good melons. Then try to eat the melon butt.
"Brother Dunzi, I don't want to eat melon, I want to eat watermelon, and I want to eat Youyou, let's go pick it!" Zhou Wanwan really can't stand it.
"If you pick again, maybe there's a good one down there." Dunzi still refused to get up.
Zhou Wanwan glared at Shen Guodong again, you are too bad! How can you bully honest people like this!
Shen Guodong smiled evilly, I asked him to get up, he can't afford it!
I can't stand it, and Zhou Chen. "Dunzi! Come and cut the watermelon! ”
"Hey!" Dunzi agreed happily and briskly, as if he had been waiting for this sound for a long time. Butt stumbling ran over.
Shen Guodong pouted, why did Zhou Chen take care of him so quickly?! He should be left to dry for two days!
Zhou Wanwan looked at the dun that was happily busy before and after, and slowly turned his head to look at Shen Guodong, who also had a little reminiscence.
The two looked at each other in disbelief, they let the honest man take advantage of it!
It's not like this guy didn't see that Shen Guodong was making a mistake! He was deliberately bullied and made Zhou Chen upset for him! Otherwise, Zhou Chen would definitely have to ignore him for several days.
He pretended to be pitiful and was bullied, and let Zhou Chen talk to him in two hours!
It's so cunning! This is honest, this is bad!
Shen Guodong was so angry that he chatted with Zhou Wanwan, "Do you say that Xiao Er knows that he is so bad?" How did he become so bad?! ”
Grandpa Shen chatted for most of the afternoon, looked back at the children he brought, and then looked at the watermelon rinds and melon baskets they ate, coughed, and told Xiao Liang to go back and drive.
Alas! After eating so many melons from other people, I can't go back if I don't buy more!
These young men, ordinary people really can't afford to raise them! It's too tasty!
While waiting for Xiao Liang to drive, Grandpa Shen went to the soybean field next to him to see the growth.
He first stretched out his hand to measure the height of the bean seedlings, then counted the pods, and then picked up a little soil on the roots to see if it was dry and wet, and even grabbed a handful of soil and smelled the weight of the manure.
"Chief, you really look like an old member!" Xiao Zhang was born in the countryside and is very familiar with farm work.
Grandpa Shen smiled, he left home at the age of twelve, and he had never touched farm work again in his life, and he almost forgot about it. Now he really wants to touch the land, and the fallen leaves return to his roots, it seems that he is really old!
"Grandpa Shen, there is a mother-in-law over there, let's dig it back and eat it at night!" Zhou Wanwan saw that Grandpa Shen's mood was a little wrong, and quickly diverted his attention.
"There are a lot of camellias, bracken, amaranth and daylily growing in the back garden of the house, and I will make you a few more at night!" Zhou Chen also saw his sister's intentions and immediately went to help her.
Everyone went to dig wild vegetables lively, planning to make a wild vegetable feast for Grandpa Shen and Mr. Guo in the evening.
Grandpa Shen's attention immediately shifted to wild vegetables, and he began to discuss the evening menu with Zhou Chen with great interest.
Mr. Guo took a handful of mother-in-law Ding and looked at this group of clever and caring children with a smile, and his heart was full of emotion. When people are old, they have to have a hope, or they will have little momentum to live!
This group of children is the hope in front of the eyes of the two bad old men, looking at them, many things can be thought of!
With these children by their side, they can live at least twenty more years!
The wild vegetable feast in the evening was really full of wild vegetables. Zhou Wanwan searched for it from her precious bookcase and pulled out a recipe. There are many kinds of wild vegetables in it.
Zhou Chen and Shen Guodong took turns to cook a large table full of dishes, and Grandpa Shen was very interested. asked Shen Guodong to open two bottles of good wine, everyone had to drink a little, and even Zhou Wan had to take a sip.
Zhou Yang, on behalf of his younger brothers and sisters, accompanied the two old men and Uncle Xiao Zhang, and drank most of the bottle of wine without frowning, drinking the three elders with high spirits, shouting that he had to open another bottle.
"I really can't see that this kid can drink so much!" Xiao Liang, who didn't drink anything, looked at Zhou Yang enviously.
Zhou Chen smiled and sandwiched another shepherd's cabbage bun for Xiao Liang. "My eldest brother was born."
Grandpa Shen was happy, not only did he ask Zhou Yang to accompany him, but he also had to pull the pier to have two cups. "When you get to the army later, what can you do when you can't drink!? I'm an invincible opponent in the military region, you can't drink it, isn't it embarrassing for me?! ”
Dunzi can't resist the half-drunk Grandpa Shen. I drank several glasses in one go. only let him let himself go.
"The young man has ambition!" Grandpa Shen patted Dunzi's shoulder heavily, his eyes were full of relief and joy, "When you get to the army in the future, don't lose this aggressiveness!" Just let it go! With my old man in one day, as long as you don't poke a hole in the sky, nothing will happen! ”
Dunzi saluted Grandpa Shen with a full glass of wine and nodded heavily.
Grandpa Shen and Mr. Guo laughed, "Why do I like this kid so much!" Temper on me! I think you're more like my own grandson! What is that kid like me?! Drinking wine is like drinking poison. Don't you pick it up, right? ”
Shen Guodong frowned and looked at the wine glass in front of him, and muttered to Zhou Wanwan in great incomprehension. "It's spicy and smelly, what's so good about it?"
Grandpa Shen and Mr. Guo stayed in Xiangyangtun for two days, and although they were very reluctant, they still had to go back. Before leaving, he arranged Dunzi to the county armed forces department.
"It's just that I went to study for a few days temporarily, and I'm going to go to the army, and it's beneficial to talk to the people in the army's recruitment office everywhere. The rest don't have to deliberately learn anything, just go and see, don't be confused when you get to the army. ”
Most of the people who come to the army for recruitment are grassroots cadres of the army, and they will have direct contact with the recruits in the future. Getting acquainted with them is very beneficial for Dunzi to go to the troops.
Even if Dunzi is specially recruited to go to the special agent battalion, if you first contact the people in the army, you can know some basic information, and let the veterans guide you, and you will avoid many detours.
As for learning to deal with others, broaden your horizons, expand your network, and other benefits, you have to rely on personal understanding and chance.
The remaining 20 days before Dunzi joined the army were basically spent in the county armed forces.
But he insisted on going home every day, saying that he would not live with Shen Guodong or Zhou Chen.
He was about to leave home, and he was reluctant to spend every minute at home, and riding a bicycle for more than 100 miles a day was not worth mentioning to him.
Zhou Chen and Shen Guodong also accompanied him to commute. The three of them rode their bicycles home every day, talking and laughing on the road, and the two-hour journey could be shortened to one hour.
Even one day, Shen Guodong rode back in a record of more than 40 minutes, he was at home for a long time, and he didn't pester Zhou Wanwan to draw a picture of him and his bicycle to commemorate his successful breakthrough and victory under the attack of Zhou Chen and Dunzi!
Three weeks later, no matter how reluctant he is, the day of his enlistment in the army is coming.
Grandpa Shen came back on a special trip and took the whole family to the county's photo studio to take a family photo.
As soon as he heard the words related to "taking the car" and "going out", Xiao Wang became very smart, and he couldn't get out of the jeep first.
So this family photo Xiao Wang also made a glorious appearance, occupying the most conspicuous position in addition to Grandpa Shen.
Regarding parting, although the brothers and sisters are reluctant, they are not sad.
Young people's hearts are filled with more hope, full of hope and strength for the future life, and their eyes are also thinking about the future beauty, and it is easier to see the positive side of this parting.
Therefore, whenever everyone mentions that Dunzi is leaving, what they think of is the joy of his wishes, his colorful military camp life, and the challenges and opportunities he has to face in his life, which minimizes the sadness of parting.
Before leaving, Dunzi almost completely cleaned up and checked the house, talked with Zhou Yang several times, and occasionally heard one or two sentences in Zhou Wanwan, all of which were carefully instructed about the affairs of the family, the life of their brothers and sisters, and even Xiao Wang was a little fat.
Zhou Wanwan's easel and painting clip pier were all remade, and she also took away a few family photos she painted.
Zhou Wanwan and Zhou Chen made a wallet for Dunzi, and she also specially drew a miniature family photo and put it in, Zhou Chen went to the photo studio again, and shrunk a photo of their family photo and put it in the wallet.
When Dunzi received this gift, he was so happy that he didn't know what to do, so he picked up Zhou Wanwan and Zhou Chen together and picked them up several times.
"Let you take us all with you! Rejoice! Zhou Wanwan was so excited to see Dunzi, and she was also very happy.
"Hmmm! You will always be with me! I ......" Dunzi suddenly couldn't go on, and his eyes turned red almost instantly.
Everyone stopped talking, waiting for him to calm down.
Parting is always difficult to give up, the more people who are not good at words, the more likely their inner feelings are surging than others, not to the point that they can't help it, and it is impossible for Dunzi to let anyone see his tears.
Before leaving, Dunzi deliberately set aside a day to do nothing, only to explain to Zhou Chen the progress of his various tools, materials, parts, drawings, finished products and semi-finished products, and listed more than a dozen pages of lists and instructions in detail, checking and explaining, the project was so huge that everyone was surprised.
Over the years, Zhou Chen's hobby has become a matter for him and Dunzi, almost all the complicated and trivial work has been slowly taken over by Dunzi, and Zhou Chen's energy is focused on design and innovation.
At the handover of Dunzi, Zhou Chen was suddenly a little stunned, "Why are there so many things?" It's so messy that I can't remember it for a while! ”
Dunzi was prepared, took out several pages of memos, explained them to Zhou Chen one by one, and pulled Zhou Yang to help Zhou Chen memorize them.
Zhou Chen pinched the list of items that Dunzi had handed him before, and his mind was a little wooden, "Brother Dunzi, I am suddenly very reluctant to let you go!" I'll miss you so much when you're gone! ”
Zhou Yang laughed angrily beside him, it turned out that this kid was reluctant to leave before! I found that no one was reluctant.
Dunzi didn't think so, he was very moved by what Zhou Chen said, "Don't forget to write to me, write often, ask me if you have anything in the letter, I will definitely reply to you immediately!" ”
Zhou Yang laughed again, one is willing to fight and the other is willing to suffer, forget it, he still don't interject, watch the excitement on the side!
Dunzi repeatedly told Zhou Wanwan that he must write to him often, and draw a portrait of him every two months, or the next time he sees her, she has grown up a lot, and he doesn't see how it grows, and he feels uncomfortable when he thinks about it.
Shen Guodong also talked to Dunzi alone. What they said was unknown to others, but after talking, both Dunzi and Shen Guodong had a few more pages in their hands.
In the past few days, Dunzi suddenly turned into a chatter, and he could catch people and nag him when he saw anything, so frightened that Shen Guodong hurriedly ran away as soon as he saw him, "I can't remember it well!" You go find Yoko! ”
How reluctant and uneasy, Dunzi still took the big red flower and got on the train to pursue the dream that he had always refused to reveal to others.
Dunzi left, and before Zhou Wanwan could slow down, Zhou Chen began to pack her schoolbag and prepare for school. (To be continued......)
