The Great Central Plains of Troubled Youth 6
"The mother is worried, and the mother is not worried." This is a truth that has been passed down through the ages. Coming out of the restaurant, I went with my father and mother to the north side of the old living quarters to lead the military uniforms. Because it was already afternoon, there were very few people in the army suit. Several volunteers who handled the collection of military uniforms sat in the shade of the corner to rest. Seeing that we had come to lead the uniforms, two senior female seniors came over, one issued a receipt to collect the money, and the other took the military uniform and military shoes and handed them to me. After my mother paid 120 yuan for the military uniform, the three of them left the military uniform and walked back in the direction of our dormitory.
Ten minutes later, we returned to the downstairs of our dormitory. I followed my father and mother downstairs to peddle goods and buy paper baskets, clothes supports, slippers, and branches to dry clothes. The father carried a large bag of toilet paper, and the mother carried a washbasin, foot basin and toothbrush. The mother said, "Son, you see what is missing." I said, "I don't need anything, if I don't have anything, I'll buy it myself." The father said, "It's still very hot in this place in Binhe City, so let's prepare another mat and a mosquito shelter for my son." My mother said, "I didn't expect that." By the way, after buying a mattress and a mosquito shed at the stall where I bought slippers, my father had two more large items in his hand. My father carried this pile of things and followed us into the dormitory building.
At the dormitory management office, after the mother registered, the three of them walked through the aisle and went up the fifth floor from the west staircase.
When I went up to the third floor, my father's steps were a little heavy. I said, "Daddy, give me the mat." The father said, "Now that it is here, go and open the door." "I walked up to the fifth floor and was about to open the door with a magnetic card when I noticed that the door to our dormitory was open. When I walked into the dormitory, I found a young man in his twenties making a bed on the same side as my bed. An older boy, who looked younger than the young man and was dressed more fashionably, sat on a chair in the middle of the room. He rested one foot on the desk in the middle bed, a snazzy cell phone in his hand, and a headset listening to music. I took a quick look of the room, and there was a large suitcase on the middle bed on the east side. The luggage on the bed has not been made yet, and the owner does not know what to do.
Seeing us enter the door, the young man in the fashionable dress stood up and let us pass. The father asked with some confusion, "Which of you two is a student who comes to school?" The boy who was making the bed on the top bunk got off the bed. He said to his father, "It's me, uncle." The father looked at the young man, who was not too tall and somewhat fat, and said, "Who is he?" ”
The chubby young man said, "He's my brother." The father asked, "What's your name?" The fat young man said: "My name is Jiang Dajun, his name is Jiang Erjun, and we are one year old." The mother interjected, "O army, your brother is at work." "The Second Army doesn't like to talk, and it's always been his brother's army that communicates with us. Dajun said: "The family is in difficulty, and my younger brother went to the car repair shop as an apprentice after graduating from junior high school to earn some money to support the family. The mother said, "There are not many brothers in a family as big as you." Dajun said, "I also have a little sister who is three years younger than him, and she is also in high school." The mother said, "Three children, enough for your parents." What do your parents do. Dajun said, "My parents were farmers. ”
The father said, "I heard that you two are natives from the Central Plains, where is your home?" Dajun said: "Our family is from Zhengxin City, Binhe City. The father said, "Oh, a county-level city." The army said, "Yes." Dajun then asked, "Uncle, I don't hear your accent is a local, where are you from?" "The Central Plains accent of the army is very strong. My father said, "We are from Yanshan City, Liaoning Province, have you heard of it?" "Yanshan City, is that the place where the 1976 earthquake occurred?" Jiang Dajun then asked. The father said, "Yes, that's the place." The army said, "You must be in time for a great earthquake at your age." My father said: "I didn't catch the earthquake either, and I heard from the old people in my hometown that the place we are in is not the epicenter area, and the damage is relatively light, but there are also a few houses in my hometown." The army came with interest and said, "It is said that many people died at that time. "According to official reports, more than 240,000 people died and more than 160,000 were seriously injured," the father said. The army said, "It's so strict." The father said: "The main urban area of Yanshan City has been razed to the ground, and the American Earthquake Network has determined that in the east of the capital of Donghua Kingdom, there is a medium-sized city with a magnitude 7.0 earthquake, and this city will be wiped off the earth. Dajun said, "Uncle, you know a lot. The father said, "It's not that the uncle knows a lot, it's that the uncle usually pays attention to reading relevant books." Isn't there such a saying, everywhere pay attention to learning? As you young generation, you must study hard, what are you doing here today? You have come here to grow your ability and improve your level. Therefore, we must study hard to have a foundation for our careers in the future. Dajun said, "Uncle, what you said is so good. ”
My father said, "My son Yang Zaixu, you will be roommates in the future, and you will learn from each other and take care of each other in the future." I said, "Hello Jiang Dajun." Dajun said, "Hello Yang Zai. "My mother and I were inside tidying up the beds, taking the clothes out of the suitcases and backpacks and putting them in the closet. My mother said, "Father, if you are tired and the bed is made, you can go up and rest for a while." The father said, "I'm really tired, so I'll go up." The father took off his shoes and climbed up to the bed with great difficulty, leaning against the quilt.
The second army said: "Big brother, I'll go back first if there's nothing to do, and if you lack money, you can call me and sue me." Dajun said: "Go home and help your father and mother do more work, don't make your father and mother angry." My mother is not in good health, so you have to go home often. The second army said, "Uncle, you can rest, I'm leaving." My parents said, "You walk slowly." The army said, "Wait for me, I'll send you." "The second army and the main army walked out of the dormitory one after the other, and the army closed the door.
After my mother had cleaned up my closet, she climbed into my top bunk and squeezed into a bed with my father, resting with my eyes closed, while I leaned back in my chair and flipped through an idle book. At this moment the door opened, and a boy who looked older and taller than me entered. The boy said cheerfully, "You're here early." ”
