Li Qing sat at the kitchen table, eating the food cooked by his mother, he hadn't eaten the food cooked by his mother for a while, and he still thought it was so delicious. Liang Hongyu sat in the hall opposite the kitchen, sometimes looking at her son, showing a loving smile.

At this time, the sound of motorcycles came from outside the courtyard. "It's Daddy back. Liang Hongyu hurriedly went to open the door, and a middle-aged man with dark skin with a briefcase, thin and a scholarly temperament walked in, and Li Qing got up to serve the meal.

"Dad, you're back, I haven't seen you for a month, are you so busy at work?"

Li Qing's father, Li Mingshan, sat in a seat next to Li Qing's seat and placed his briefcase on another table. Haha said: "Do you think that your younger brothers and sisters are the same as you, like a girl, always reading books at home, one by one, very naughty." ”

"Dad, you are not, I heard the third grandfather say that when you were a child, you were fascinated by herding cattle and reading books, and you lost the cow, so anxious that grandma looked for three days and three nights. Li Qing refused to admit defeat.

"You two finally ate together, don't tease, you're all nerds, hurry up and eat. Liang Hongyu scolded the father and son with a smile, and also sat down to chat together.

"Qing'er is going to the county seat in a few days, why don't you buy two new clothes?"

"What are you going to do in the county seat?" Li Mingshan wondered.

"I met Qing'er's classmate today, but she is a beautiful girl, and they also invited Qing'er to a party. ”

"Yo, our family Qing'er can still talk to girls, this is a novelty. Dress Qing'er up handsome and handsome. Li Mingshan looked at Li Qing and said with a smile.

"Dad, aren't I approaching the college entrance examination, why are you like Mom and let me play. Li Qing asked his father strangely, this is not right, his parents are both college students, or teachers, don't you know the importance of the college entrance examination?

"You can rest assured to play, I know your performance in school, and I also know that you study weekdays, it's okay to relax, but it will help you study, so go with confidence." Li Mingshan said seriously.

Li Qing is strange, what's wrong with his parents, he is very strict with himself on weekdays, when he was in junior high school, he was crazy to learn some things inside and outside the classroom, and he didn't even have time to play with his friends in the village, and in the early stage of the high school entrance examination, he let Li Qing study in a closed way, but Li Qing didn't feel pressure.

Now that the college entrance examination is approaching, the teachers in the school have told the students to brainwash the importance of the college entrance examination, and the inspirational words of the college entrance examination are hung on the third floor of the high school, and the college entrance examination banners are posted in every classroom, in order to let students study hard and prepare for the college entrance examination. In the face of such a major event in life, Li Qing was allowed to play.

Seeing Li Qing's strange eyes, Li Mingshan laughed: "In the past, when I was in junior high school, I was strict with you, in order to let you develop good habits and lay a good foundation, since you went to high school, our requirements are not so much, as long as your grades are passable, we didn't say anything, but your grades are still top-notch, and your self-discipline is still so strong, but it has become a little worse." ”

Li Qing nodded as if he didn't understand, he has always been like this, he likes to read books and delve into the wonders of books, why did he get worse?

"When Qing'er went to the county seat, I went back to see my grandfather. Liang Hongyu said suddenly.

"Oh, yes..." Li Mingshan's words came to an abrupt end, his smile gradually disappeared, and his expression was a little heavy. Liang Hongyu didn't speak, and the atmosphere stiffened a little.

At this time, Li Qing asked, "What's wrong with my parents?"

Li Qing's parents came back to their senses, "It's okay, it's okay, Qing'er, you go and get busy with you first, it's okay to watch TV, I have something to talk about with your father." ”

Li Qing got up and walked towards his room. This grandfather Li Qing has no impression, but he has heard of it, but he has not seen it. When his parents talked about his grandfather, it seemed that something was wrong, Li Qing shook his head and didn't want to think about it so much.

In the kitchen, Li Qing's parents sat silently, as if they were reminiscing about the past and regretting their mistakes.

"More than ten years have passed, and you still can't let go?" Liang Hongyu was the first to speak.

Li Mingshan raised his head, his eyes filled with pain: "Yes! If it weren't for them, my father and mother would not have passed away so early!

"But this is a matter of our generation, and I don't want to implicate Qing'er. Let him live too tired. Liang Hongyu said with tears in her eyes.

Li Mingshan lit a cigarette, and as a teacher, he barely smokes. He sat in a chair and bent his head down, puffing out smoke rings one by one, and his whole spirit became sluggish, and he seemed to be ten years old in an instant.

The next day, Li Qing opened his eyes in the early morning, and the dazzling light of the curtains made Li Qing unable to open his eyes, and after getting used to it a little, there was a world full of light in front of him.

Looking up at the sky, it is pure blue. On such a good day, Li Qing decided to go to the village for a walk.

"Li Qing, I haven't seen you grow a lot taller for a long time. Li Qing walked to the center of the village, where there was a commissary, a basketball court, and a fish pond in front of the commissary, with large banyan and willow trees planted on both sides of the fish pond.

The branches and leaves of the willow tree are very green, swaying with the wind, and the banyan tree is thick and thick with dense branches and leaves, like an honest and honest man. The water in the pond is very clear, and there are a few aquatic plants growing on the edge, and the dragonflies ripple in circles, and the fish sometimes jump out of the water happily. The charm of the willow, the simplicity of the banyan, and the clarity of the pond make people feel refreshed and happy, and Li Qing's mood is quite good.

There is a big banyan tree at the entrance of the commissary, there are some old people playing chess under the big banyan tree, children are playing, there are several tables of mahjong in the commissary rubbing fiercely, and the one who stopped Li Qing is the second uncle Li who lives in the middle of the village.

Second Uncle Li was very good to Li Qing, and often gave Li Qing a little snack to eat when he was young, and the children in the village liked Second Uncle Li more.

"Hello second master, don't you play chess? ”

"Chess? Those deflated calves can't play tricks on me, and don't play with them. Second Uncle Li said a little unconvinced.

"If it weren't for the three of them bullying me, I wouldn't have done him personally, seeing that they were still arrogant. No, I need to get back on the field. ”

Second Uncle Li left like this.

Along the way, Li Qing met many acquaintances and greeted many people along the way.

"Yo! Isn't this Li Qing, who has grown a lot taller, and his skin is so white. ”

"Li Dacai from our village, he looks so good. ”

"I heard that he is stable to go to a key university, hey, if only my stinky boy had half of the skills. ”

"Hey, Li Qing, my girl is about the same age as you, studying nurses in the provincial capital, I think you two are almost right. ”

Hearing this, Li Qing was startled and looked at the aunt. Behind the aunt stood a slim tall beauty, hiding behind her mother, pulling her mother's clothes, her face was originally a little blushing by her mother's words, and Li Qing turned red to the base of her neck when she saw it like this.

An aunt spoke up: "Hey, Sister Zhang, I can't wait to push my daughter out." The abacus of college students who climbed to key universities is crackling. ”

"My daughter Jun, what's wrong with being worthy of Li Qing. The aunt said confidently.

As soon as these words came out, the people around them burst into laughter.

The girl had already run away, and when she left, she secretly glanced at Li Qing a few times. Li Qing felt embarrassed and quickly slipped away, leaving a group of aunts and uncles to "chat" loudly.

Li Qing, just thinking about staying away from those aunts, didn't look at the road, and unknowingly came to the entrance of the village. Li Qing stood beside the stone tablet before he came back to his senses.

"I'm here to hang out, feel free. ”

Li Qing looked around, some unknown trees were planted at the entrance of the village, the path at the entrance of the village was well repaired, and there were flower beds on both sides. Li Qing walked a few steps outside, and he saw a person sitting under a tree enjoying the shade. His hair was gray, his clothes were tattered, and he wore a yellow robe polluted by dust, which was supposed to be a white robe. He carried three cloth bags on his back, long hair and a shawl, and a branch in his hand, barefoot. He looked like he was in his early thirties, but his hair was gray, and he didn't know what he was thinking with his head down.

Li Qing was a little curious, this person was really strange.

"Are you hungry? Would you like to go to our village for something to eat, our village is very nice. ”

The man shook his head, and Li Qing turned around and was about to take a step. A hoarse voice was heard.

"I'm here, waiting for someone. ”
