CHAPTER XV

!!!???

Are the current inpatient meals so perfunctory?

Although Zhou An knew that life in the seventies and eighties was very simple, but because the Zhou family was the only seedling in his family, everything delicious was stuffed into his hands, plus Uncle Zhou's allowance every month, the food was still good.

Zhou An subconsciously glanced at Zeng Aiqiao's hand, which was a small portion of rice, as well as a chicken leg and a handful of soybeans. Well, it seems that the hospital still has special treatment for pregnant women.

After eating, Zhou An didn't stay long, and went back to the village with Zhou Xiuqin, anyway, Zhou Guodong is a big living person, although he is a little stupid, but he should take care of his daughter-in-law.

Zhou An held a stack of books in his arms and sat on the rickety car, his mood fluctuating with the car.

", point to the left."

"Milk, to the right, there's someone over there."

Zhou Xiuqin rode a bicycle for the first time, and her hands and feet didn't obey the call, and it took a while to get used to it, and she smacked her lips and said, "This bike is really convenient, next time I will ride it to the town." ”

Zhou An was bumped by the steep path, and his brain was almost a pile of mush, and when he heard Zhou Xiuqin's words, his first reaction was: regret.

Originally, Zhou Xiuqin was resolute not to touch the bicycle, but Zhou An remembered the determination not long ago that "his own saddle must belong to his daughter-in-law", and he didn't want to be beaten and his face hurt, so he gritted his teeth and insisted on sitting in the back.

Zhou An was afraid that Zhou Xiuqin would not be willing, so he persuaded on the side: "Milk, think about it, do you have to come to see the second aunt these days?" If you're riding a bicycle, it's a lot more convenient. ”

Zhou Xiuqin usually takes an ox cart to the town, although the ox cart can put things, but it is too slow, Zhou Xiuqin thought about it, and still felt that her grandson was right, and drove the ducks to the shelves on the bicycle.

Unexpectedly, the bicycle is really easy to use, and after going through the initial adaptation period, Zhou Xiuqin even secretly poked and poked at her own small coffers, thinking about how likely it is for her youngest son to find another bicycle ticket.

Zhou Xiuqin had already noticed the pile of books in Zhou An's hand, and asked curiously: "An Wazi, what are you doing with the books in your hand?" ”

Zhou An didn't want to hide it from Zhou Xiuqin, and replied in a low voice: "Milk, I've been dreaming these days, I dreamed of my grandfather, he said let me read more books, it will be useful in the future, I thought that I had nothing to do at home anyway, so I went to the scrapyard to pick up some books to read." ”

Zhou Xiuqin was startled when she heard Zhou An say that she dreamed of his grandfather, and later heard that the old immortal asked his grandson to read a book, but she was relieved, "You really dreamed of your grandfather?" He just likes to read, and he's going to come to you when he's dead! I mean, you don't usually like to read. There was melancholy in his tone, but he didn't doubt that what Zhou An said was false.

Zhou An didn't want to pull out his grandfather, who had been dead for more than ten years, but he couldn't directly tell Zhou Xiuqin that he knew that he would resume the college entrance examination in a few years, right? So Zhou An had to borrow his grandfather's name for a while, but fortunately, Zhou Xiuqin easily believed it.

Back at home, Zhou An moved his stiff buttocks, moved the books into the house and put them away, and the small desk that had only been dusty for a long time finally came in handy.

Zhou An looked at the desk, and suddenly thought that Zhou Xiuqin should still hope that she could like to read like her grandfather, but the original body only knew how to eat, drink and have fun, and after he crossed over, he also had a messy life, and this table with the expectations of the old man became an ornament.

Even so, Zhou Xiuqin still loves herself so much, and Zhou An's heart was extremely sour for a while.

Zhou An suppressed the emotions in his heart, took a deep breath, and walked out of the room.

Zhou Xiuqin happened to come out of the hall, carrying two packets of brown sugar in her hand, and when she saw Zhou An coming out, she said, "It's just right, you go and help grandma get two eggs, I heard your second aunt say that the educated youth is not in good health, send her something to make up for it." ”

Zhou An readily agreed and picked two big eggs.

Uncle Zhou is not at home, but the household registration has not been moved, Zhou An has three chickens in his house, and there are only two or three eggs a day, except for Zhou An's one egg a day, Hong Xiumei and Zhou Guojun can sometimes eat one occasionally, and the rest are saved by Zhou Xiuqin, and when they are almost saved, they will be sent to Zhou Guoliang. Zhou Guoliang was not easy to go out to buy in the army, and the money in his hand was almost sent back, so he sent some eggs to make up for him.

Zhou An stepped forward to take the brown sugar in Zhou Xiuqin's hand and said, "Grandma, you are tired, I will send this brown sugar and eggs, just when I go to work in the afternoon, I will bring them to her." You still have to go to see the second aunt in the afternoon, so take a good rest now. ”

Zhou Xiuqin thought of her second son, who was very reliable but unreliable, and felt that what Zhou An said was very reasonable, so she gave Zhou An brown sugar, "That's okay, you can thank others when the time comes, and you can take care of her more when you work in the future." ”

"Okay, don't worry, I'll do it for you, now the most important thing you need to do is get some sleep." With that, Zhou An pushed Zhou Xiuqin towards the house.

"Alright, alright, I'm going to sleep, don't push." Zhou Xiuqin looked at her grandson who was suddenly sensible, and lay down on the bed and fell asleep in her heart.

Zhou An saw that Zhou Xiuqin was asleep, and let out a slight snoring sound before getting up and tiptoeing away.

"Son, what are you doing?" Zhou Guojun looked at Zhou An, who was sneaky, and his eyes were fixed on the brown sugar in Zhou An's hand, "You stole your milk's brown sugar again?" ”

Zhou An was first startled by the voice that suddenly appeared behind him, and then heard Zhou Guojun's "heart-wrenching words", and he was startled and inevitably irritable, "Dad, why are you here?" Also, I didn't steal my grandmother's things, my grandmother gave them to me and asked me to give them to others, and you will be foolish! If you listen carefully, you can still hear the weakness in his tone.

Zhou Guojun let out an "oh", "To whom?" Could it be that the female intellectuals named Chen Yan? ”

Zhou An's heart was beating wildly, "Dad, you also know Chen Yan!" Yes, it's her, she found the second aunt before and helped our family, and grandma asked me to send her some brown sugar. Haha, ha! ”

Zhou Guojun nodded, and let out another "oh", staring at the brown sugar with his eyes.

Zhou An was almost driven crazy by Zhou Guojun's "oh", what does "oh" mean, you just say something, what's the use of just saying oh.

"Dad, aren't you supposed to be working now?" When Zhou An went to the hospital before, Zhou Xiuqin said that Zhou Guojun and Hong Xiumei took up too much space, so they asked them to go back to the village. Zeng Aiqiao really didn't have anything to do. The two of them left. It stands to reason that the two of them should be working right now.

Zhou Guojun said "oh" again, "Your second uncle is not here, who would dare to say that I am lazy with your mother?" Didn't you just come in and noticed that your mom and I were sleeping in the house? ”

What, Hong Xiumei is also there? Zhou An really didn't notice.

Zhou An's intuition was not good, "Dad, you see it's better for me to hurry up and give things to others, I'll go to work first!" "Regardless of his three-seven-twenty-one, slipping away as a plan, today's Zhou Guojun is too abnormal.

"Wait," Zhou Guojun finally spoke, "Son, you also know that your mother and I can't do anything, but we are still good at eating." There are already four packets of brown sugar missing at home, and now you have the fifth or sixth packets in your hand. How much do you have to take to be willing? ”

Zhou An never thought that Zhou Guojun and Hong Xiumei would be so mad that they even knew how much brown sugar they had at home, I'm afraid even Zhou Xiuqin didn't know how much she had in stock!

"No, I only took two packs before!" Zhou An didn't think about it, and blurted out a sentence.

Zhou Guojun opened his mouth faintly and said: "I know, I took two packets of brown sugar before and was exchanged for fish by your milk, and the other two packets disappeared all at once, it turned out that you really took it!" ”

"That, Dad, you misunderstood, I mean I only have these two packs in my hand, and the other four packs have nothing to do with me." I don't know if it's sunburned or what, Zhou An feels that his head is full of sweat.

Zhou Guojun looked disbelieving, and glared at Zhou An, "Pretend, Lao Tzu already knows, did you give brown sugar to the person you like?" The one named Chen Yan? ”

Zhou An was really surprised at this time, "Dad, how do you know?" ”

Zhou Guojun snorted, "This is all your dad and I play leftovers, when I chased your mother, there was no brown sugar at home, so I stole the eggs at home to your mother, and after your grandmother found out, she chased me for several streets, and then your mother saw that I was beaten like that and married me." ”

"Then how do you know about Chen Yan?"

"You kid didn't bring a kettle when he came out, and he suddenly brought it that day, and when he came back, the kettle was gone, so he must have given it away!"

"That's it?" Zhou An couldn't believe it was that simple.

Zhou Guojun coughed, "What, I was lazy with your mother before, I saw you pulling and pulling with a woman, and I gave the kettle to others." ”

turned out to be like this, Zhou An felt that the parents in this world were Laike's own, and he could be seen if he confessed. Wasn't there no one at the time? Why is Zhou Guojun there? Moreover, looking at what he wants to say now, it is definitely not just to see himself pulling and pulling.

Zhou Guojun slapped Zhou An on the shoulder, "Xiao An, it's not that Dad doesn't support you, after all, Dad is also from here." If there's anything you don't understand, you can ask me! ”

"Yes, I know, Dad, I'm really leaving."

"Go, go, I'm sorry you say."

Zhou Guojun looked at the back of Zhou An leaving, his expression was pensive, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

On the other side, the experimental field of educated youth

"Xiaoyan, how are your hands, are you okay?"

Chen Yan smiled and nodded, "It's much better, you don't have to worry, it's just that it looks amazing, but it's not a big deal." ”

"Okay." Xia Tong sighed, knowing that Chen Yan would not change her mind, and she didn't persuade her much.

Xiu Weier said somehow on the side, "Sister Xia, you see that Chen Yan has the strength to save people, why doesn't she look like something is wrong!" If there is really something, then it would be good to find Comrade Zhou An, she can be regarded as the life-saving benefactor of the Zhou family when she says this, if she asks for a leave, Comrade Zhou An will definitely agree. ”
