Chapter 383: Family, Myself, and Career (4,000 words)
Xiao Mao muttered to himself: "Why can't I count how many layers, how many layers?" Xiao Mao's question drowned out everyone's gossip.
Summer turned around and saw such a scene.
Xiao Mao was wearing his white shirt, blue-black pants, pink cotton socks, and a pink scarf around his neck.
She tugged at the army-green cloth bag with her hands a little restrained, not daring to go closer, tilting her head and looking up at the skyscraper in her heart.
A tall building, a simple country girl, she occasionally carefully stretched out her index finger to count, and then did not understand, and then restrainedly pulled the cloth bag with both hands, with a smile on her face, looking a little shy, her eyes were full of longing and surprise.
Behind her stood a lot of outsiders, some of them carrying a luggage roll, some of them with a child hanging in a cloth bag in front of her. Many people are already tired, but no matter how tired they are, they can't resist the exploration and excitement in their eyes.
They have different shapes, but the expressions and demeanors on their faces are so similar.
Such a scene is generally painted, so that the summer can instantly understand why a few years later, ten years later, twenty years later, a large number of outsiders will enter Beijing.
She hadn't noticed it before, but now that she was in it, she realized the impact of this tallest modern building in Kyoto on ordinary people.
As if time had passed, she saw the scene of the future train station being crowded with people dragging her family.
Summer slowly paced to Xiao Mao's side and replied, "Seventeen floors." This is the new building. Not built for a few years. Actually, she didn't hear what Xiao Mao said, but she probably guessed.
"Oh, you don't know. The shoe cabinets inside are all carved in ivory. ”
This is a person wearing a white shirt and a pen pinned to his shirt pocket, who looks very "status" and is very cultured, and he got a burst of sighs and attention from the people around him.
Summer smiled sullenly. She believes that in this life, she will see whether the president's suit is carved or not.
The two of them were walking on the street, Xiao Mao was still praising the automatic door again and again, and the summer encouraged:
"Nothing is impossible, who can see the future! Sister-in-law, you have to believe that one day you will step forward to entertain customers on your own. ”
"Don't, don't talk nonsense."
"How can it be nonsense? In fact, if Ye Boxuan hadn't been injured, if you came this time, I would have asked him to bring him in. Now the two of us really can't make it. There is a security check. Documents are also required. Sister, I'm not promising.,Level and status, etc.,It's not enough.。 Deye Da Shao shot. ”
Xiao Mao waved his hand again and again: "Where is that place where I go to a township and a country girl." I think it costs money to go in and see it. ”
Seeing the summer giggles, Xiao Mao also giggled: "You see." It scared me so much that I couldn't speak well. It wasn't like that before. Running a train with a mouth full. Ha ha. ”
Summer is even more fun.
Xia pointed out to the bicycle flow on Chang'an Street in Xiaomaodong and said, "I can't see the car now." In the future, in a few years, the traffic sign will definitely not be this. ”
Xiao Mao looked at the sign beside the cyclist and said: trucks, tractors, and animal vehicles are not allowed to pass.
Xiao Mao only glanced at this slogan. I was attracted to another scene. Several beautiful female students passed in front of them on bicycles, and she envied the red armbands of the "Red Guards". It was an honor, but it was far from her.
Summer raised her hand and looked at the time on her watch: "Go, sister-in-law." I'll take you to Qianmen Street for a big bowl of tea. Take a break, sit there and talk and sigh. ”
Xiao Mao hurriedly rummaged through his pocket to get the kettle, and his sister was still worried about the money just now, how could there be a cold white open to drink tea. Waste is a crime!
"Give, give you! Drink this. ”
Summer smiled and shook his head and refused: "A big bowl of tea for two cents is a long history and culture." Let's go, you can't get into the Kyoto Hotel, it's not a problem here. ”
"Yes, this Kyoto is really cultured, true, and big." Xiao Mao applauded, and the two cents were okay.
In the summer, she held a large bowl of tea with a strong jasmine fragrance in her hands, watching Xiao Mao swallow slowly like drinking special Moutai, she looked up at the sky, and the sky was cloudless at this time.
When she was about to get married, she, Li Tong and Liu Yun passed by here while shopping outside, and she laughed and talked about only inviting her friends for a big bowl of tea. Li Tong said that she was waiting, and now she has no chance to please. She didn't expect the meeting that day to turn into a countdown to the number of times.
Xiao Mao glanced up at the sad summer, lowered his eyelids and sighed, and when he looked up again, he deliberately interrupted loudly: "Sister, you really don't need to send food to your brother-in-law?" You, you're like you're trying to live a good life. ”
Summer came back to her senses, sorted out her expression, looked at Xiao Mao with a smile and nodded, "Don't worry about him, my mother-in-law said that she would cook herself." We're going to forget about him today and play on our own. ”
……
Xiao Mao was lying on the dining table, it was really lying down, she looked at the roast duck in front of her seriously, biting her fingers and swallowing saliva. The duck skin looks so delicious. Well, duck meat is probably more fragrant. In fact, the shredded green onions may be different from those at home.
Although Summer sat up straight, her neck also moved. Swallowing saliva.
Eating chicken, duck and fish at home, how to eat it is like that, but when you come out to eat, you also order such an expensive roast duck, why do you feel so fragrant!
Xiao Mao stared at the roast duck intently, smelling the aroma of meat: "This, how much does this cost a piece?" Sister, do you have morning sickness? After all, it's greasy. If you vomit, it's a pity, it's better to ......"
Summer began to move chopsticks: "You think too much. The noodles outside are more fragrant than at home. I'm not going to waste it. ”
Xiao Mao took a big bite of the meat and nodded in agreement, in such a busy scene, she didn't forget to say a few words, in the summer, it seemed like reading the Bible before eating.
Xiao Mao kept eating, kept chattering, and glanced at her several times in the summer, but it didn't stop Xiao Mao.
"Oh, Mom, let's eat your brother's subsidy for one or a year. Maybe it's more than that. The eldest and eldest mothers are still counting the rice grains at home, and that's it, it is also the first and first share in the village. ”
"How many books and ...... do you have to exchange for Dongzi this meal?"
"Our grandfather smoked the cheapest dry tobacco and coughed ......"
Forehead support in summer. Have you ever seen anyone eat to the point of being self-conscious? She was nagged by her sister-in-law, and she longed to get into the cracks.
"Sister-in-law. We are only twenty years old. The pressure on the shoulders is too great, and it needs to be relieved appropriately. The biggest problem with me and you is that we are too responsible. Besides, who decided with me last night? I hesitated. ”
"Got it, got it! Dare to spend to make money! You've said it, I, I understand. ”
"Yes, let's eat happily. Earn money in the future. What kind of way to make money, I'll think about it again. Wait a year or two. ”
Xiao Mao's mouth was oily: "What are you still thinking about!" Jump, popcorn. I worked diligently for a few years. ”
Summer is happy: "The sea and the sky are open to the birds." The wisdom of the youth is the wisdom of the country. My sister-in-law has really good ambitions, so she popcorns. Ha ha. ”
Later, when Xiao Mao really flew into the blue sky, she really did the sea and the sky to let her fly, she no longer cared about the food money, she soaked in the hot spring and drank red wine in the summer. When the person reached middle age, he sighed slowly:
"That roast duck back then. Aftertaste to this day. It's like eating braised official swallows. How do you say it can be so fragrant that I have ever dreamed of it? It's all about what you eat now. It's still that good, and the days are delicious. ”
In the last piece, the two of them stretched out their hands together, and Xiao Mao was shy. The habitual beauty blushed and touched the pink gauze towel around her neck.
Summer didn't remind her that her hands were full of oil. made a "please" gesture: "You're welcome." ”
Xiao Mao ate it. smiled vaguely and innocently: "Promise, promise, promise, righteousness is interesting!" ”
The two men were well fed and drunk. Wipe your mouth and get ready to go shopping. The two coincide, and today, they must spend money, and they must "dare to spend" first.
Summer led Xiaomao to the friendship store.
Standing outside, Xiao Mao was timid again: "Sister, it looks so advanced." We? He looked down at his clothes, and there was a burp in between. Where to go is restricted, although there is no sadness, but people are graded, a little lost and powerless.
Summer raised his head and chest: "We all work for Kyoto roast duck, and we can't get into any place!" I have a bunch of tickets in my trouser pocket, as well as foreign exchange vouchers. What are you afraid of? I'll see who dares to look down on people. It is not enough to recognize people by their clothes. We wear this for the convenience of strolling around, don't we?! ”
Xiao Mao raised his head when he was encouraged, as if he was going to do a fight, and he was angry: "Go, you are working in front of you and opening the road!" ”
In the summer, when I went to the mall, I sighed with Xiao Mao:
"I don't have a pavilion, ah, it's my sister-in-law's temperament. People who are confident can't be arrogant no matter where they go! No matter what people wear, they squint at people. Everywhere she went, she had an underwhelming expression, and no one had ever found fault with her. It's weird, it's not like me, I'm haunted by imps everywhere. ”
Xiao Mao smiled: "No, she's pretty good." Big, big and tall, not slanted or slanted eyes, it's Aiyang's chin. You love to smile at others so much, people like to pick soft persimmons and pinch it. ”
"Then I'll be colder in the future."
The two of them are giggling, and the gossip Ye Boting who is very unkind, and the expressions of the scholars behind them.
Looking at the "imported foreign goods" that have quite a lot of types, Xia asked Xiaomao: "Sister-in-law, what do you want to buy?" I'll buy it for you. ”
"A pen for Fuyuko, a notebook or something."
"Oh my God!" Xiao Mao dragged Summer mysteriously: "Those are foreigners." ”
"Less now, more before. It's been two years. So when you go back to the village in the future, whoever scolds you like that again, sister-in-law, you whip her. Your hair is curly, it's genetic, and it can't be related to foreigners. They're talking nonsense. ”
"Also, I'll buy one for ourselves today."
In the summer, she took the coupon to buy two boxes of canned luncheon meat, Xiao Mao had never eaten it, she planned to give her sister-in-law a taste, and bought a lot of milk powder, which attracted Xiao Mao to look at her several times. Early, right?
Summer smiled mysteriously: "Open it and eat it." Particularly fragrant. I don't rush to drink. Ye Boxuan said that the loser has to be willful. ”
"It's because you're pregnant, and it's not up to you."
"Well, I'm still not headstrong enough."
Facts have proved that they are really not children who spend money indiscriminately, and at this point, they will never be able to surpass Ye Boting.
I got used to saving money, except for buying something to eat, and the two of them shook their heads when they saw anything.
In the summer, I wanted to buy something expensive for Xiao Mao, but unfortunately the one who spoke badly and moved sharply, and his brain shook like a rattle. even dragged her out in a hurry.
There is no loot, and it is actually just an illusion to say that you are going out to lose. They left the Friendship Mall, and they secretly breathed a sigh of relief to each other.
But they still feel happy. Drink Arctic Ocean soda, porcelain jar yogurt, fruit dan peel, maltose, cream popsicle, sit on the side of the road like two naughty children, watch people come and go, and feel alive in the moment.
Summer planned: "I can't go more when I'm pregnant, and I'm a little sorry. Next time, I will take you to a foreign restaurant for dinner. She ate the rice flowers with relish. One bite after another.
"That's good. That's a lot of insight. What do foreigners eat? I'm lucky in my third or third life! ”
Summer and Xiaomao coincidentally pondered in their hearts, waiting for their sister-in-law to come home (go home) and buy something for the family to take back.
It's nice to say "eat alone", but the children of the poor are in charge early......
In the summer, I hitchhiked back to the old house with Xiaomao, had a meal outside, and had to continue cooking when I got home, and the days had to go on as usual!
Xiao Mao quickly changed roles, and it was an eye-opener for her to wander around, and she had to grab it when she got home. Hurriedly entered the kitchen, rolled up his arms and sleeves to brush the pot and wash the vegetables.
When I entered the house in the summer, I couldn't wait to open the milk powder and eat a few bites, and then went to the kitchen like holding a baby, Xiao Mao shook his head and refused: "The water flows long." I've eaten a lot of good food today, so save my share and that. I'll eat it tomorrow. ”
In the summer, I wanted to help Xiao Mao work, but I was taken to the house by Xiao Mao to rest. Summer lay in bed and fell asleep for a while.
Ye Boxuan ate dinner a little late today, he wasn't hungry, but he missed his daughter-in-law. I haven't seen you for a while, how's it going?
When Xia Xia and Xiao Mao hurried to the hospital and arrived at Ye Boxuan's ward, before they could say a word, the door of the ward was knocked open, and the people who came in were beyond Summer's expectations.
"Sister Fan?"
Fan Jia walked in in casual clothes and carrying a net of fruits in her hand......
In the corridor, Xia and Fan Jia were looking at each other. I don't know why in the summer, I feel ashamed that I didn't go to work, and in Fan Jia's eyes, my face slowly turned red.
Summer explained in disguise: "Sister Fan, I'm pregnant, and the fetus is not very stable. This is also the case with my husband, and you have seen ......"
Fan Jia nodded, and instead of the previous harsh reproach, she told Summer: "My daughter has a high fever that does not go away, and she is taking a fever-reducing injection on the third floor, and she almost burned into meningitis." "Very calm narration.
"Huh? I'll take a look. Are you feeling better now? ”
Fan Jia patted Xia Xia on the shoulder and stopped: "I didn't say this for you to see her, you should understand what I mean." ”
Summer bit her lip and didn't say anything. She didn't dare to talk about going to work, she didn't want to go herself, she would see a lot of "data", and she now accepts incompetence.
"We are not only women, wives, mothers, but also duty, we are also soldiers, stick to our posts, not only men can do it! Come to my office tomorrow morning at eight o'clock and I'll take you to a place, go there, and I'm sure you'll be back at work. ”
Summer stood in the corridor and didn't move for a long time......
Ye Boxuan told Xia very seriously: "Ask the doctor tomorrow, if you can, I will fully support it." (To be continued......)
