"Now, fourth sister, don't get it, go to the lobby and sit down, and I'll do the rest." When the game starts, you go to watch TV. ”

Ye Qinglan scooped a scoop of water from the bucket next to the stove, washed her hands, and hurriedly stopped Ye Qingmei, who was preparing to fry ginkgo seeds.

"Third sister-in-law, don't be busy, I'll be fine with Qinglan."

Su Yuanzhen walked into the kitchen from outside the door, and hurriedly ran to the stove to light the fire, while saying to Ye Qingmei.

Fried ginkgo seeds, a special snack in Ronghai Province, have not yet been fully promoted nationwide through the large chain of Shaxian snacks at this time, but it is still quite popular as a dim sum snack in the neighborhood and countryside of Wuxing County as a rice meal.

The lumpy ginkgo seeds are cut into thin strips with a knife and fried in a pot with large oil, plus shredded meat, bean sprouts, green vegetables and dried chili peppers, and it doesn't take much effort to get out of the pot.

"Then you two come."

Ye Qingmei put down the ginkgo that had just been cut in half in her hand, and wiped the apron on her waist with both hands. One is a sister-in-law, and the other is a sister-in-law, and there is nothing polite to be polite, so she gave up her position directly from the stove.

Coming out of the kitchen, outside the door of the house, two 150-watt incandescent lamps with wires drawn from the room, one hung on the doorrail, and the other hung from a large willow tree next to the well.

In rural areas, there are few street lamps at this time, and at night, it is basically dark except for the occasional glimmer of light from the windows of each house.

I hung several bright light bulbs in front of my house, which could be seen from a distance of one or two miles.

Wedding feasts, year-end pig killings, and so on.

A TV set was racked on the square table in the open space next to the gate, there were many mosquitoes in summer, several plates of mosquito coils were lit left and right, and at this time, one or twenty men and women in front of the TV were sitting in rows, chatting with fruits, waiting for the game on TV.

There are even many children on summer vacation, running around in the crowd, and the dialect of "be careful not to fall into the well" sounded from time to time.

In rural areas, although most of every household now has a TV, but the basic routine is still early to go to bed and get up early, it is really rare for a group of men, women and children to stay up late and sit in front of the TV, and during the Spring Festival Gala, not everyone may have this interest.

It's the same with the game, there are very few people who actually watch the game. Most people jump on the platform when they come up at a sporting event.

This time, though, was different. The people who appeared on TV this time were raised by everyone watching them since childhood.

"Boss, you're here too." Lian Xiaofang grabbed a handful of sunflower seeds, and said with a smile with a smile on the back of a fast-backed, thin-haired old man next to him.

"Hey, your next-door neighbors are all coming together, I, as an uncle, should come and take a look." Su Yuanchun took out a dry tobacco pipe from his pocket and knocked it on the sole of his shoe.

"This is going to stay up all night, can you bear this old body?" Lian Xiaofang laughed with a smile.

"I didn't sleep for one night, when I was young, I watched the water in the old rock recess, and I didn't sleep for three days and three nights. It's not the same as it used to be, but once or twice in a while, I'm still able to eat. Su Yuanchun tilted his head and put a pinch of tobacco in the dry tobacco pipe, pressed it with his fingers, and glanced at Lian Xiaofang, "It's you young people, you won't do things tomorrow, and you won't sleep together." ”

"Hey, you've always said it, it's okay to get in the way for a night or two." Lian Xiaofang took out the lighter and lit the dry chimney for Su Yuanchun, "I usually watch the fish fry in the mountain pond, and I often don't sleep at night." Those electric fish carry a battery on their backs, go around and around, and run to your mountain pond from time to time to get a few times. shouted, and everyone ran away. ”

Su Yuanchun took a puff of dry tobacco, reached out and grabbed a peanut from the fruit bowl, pressed his fingers hard, and said slowly, "You can't make a lot of money in that mountain pond, or my third child has the ability to give birth to a good baby, and under our conditions, he trained an athlete." ”

"That is, in our place, it is more rare to produce an athlete than any college student." Lian Xiaofang pointed to the TV in front of him and shook his finger, "For so many years, which college student has ever been on TV, or Su Zu is amazing, this time it is the Olympic Games to compete abroad." ”

"Yuanhua has had a good time in the past few years, and Su Zu doesn't know how much money he will take to go home, but the leaders of the town and county have come several times, and it seems that they have also given some bonuses or something."

Su Yuanchun also sighed, their brother's relationship is not deep, there were conflicts when they split up, and Su Yuanhua's conditions are average, but since his son became an athlete, in just a few years, he has become more generous.

Rural people do not show their wealth, and I definitely don't know how much money it is, but the TV has been changed, the motorcycle has been bought, and I heard that the house is going to be demolished and rebuilt. Su Yuanchun sighed, this person is really incomparable.

"Don't make a noise, it's time to start!"

Su Yuanhua, who was sitting in front of the TV, stood up and yelled at the people who had been talking, and on the TV screen, Su Zu stood in the middle of a dark-skinned player, which was particularly distinct.

"Those people are so dark, you can't even look at them at night."

"The teeth are white, black like carbon"

"It's scary to watch."

As Soso whispered, the game began on the TV screen.

……

"Audience friends, the results of this group of competitions have come out, Su Zu, Su Zu He successfully advanced to the finals. Two hours later, at 23 o'clock local time and 4 o'clock in the morning Beijing time, the men's 100-meter final of this Athens Olympic Games will be held. ”

"Su Zu, the first Chinese to run in 10 seconds, the first Chinese to reach the Olympic men's final, deservedly the first in Asia."

Yang Jian explained affectionately, even if it was only a semi-final, he almost said the feeling of a champion. Indeed, for a mature track and field commentator, it is extraordinary to be able to see someone who can run into 10 seconds and run to the semi-finals.

In an area near the finish line, the sound of camera shutters kept sounding, and there were still daring reporters who passed through a nearby barrier and entered the runway to take pictures. Soon they will be expelled by the referee and other staff, and at this time it is still the first group of the semi-finals, except for some local reporters who are specially allowed to be on both sides of the track, most of them are still in the media area of the runway outside the field.

Su Zu had just walked to the location near the media area, and unexpectedly, a CCTV reporter carrying a camera appeared and squeezed out of the crowd.

"Su Zu, it's now the national sports channel live broadcast, you are about to be the final, do you have anything to say?"

"Hmm...... The semi-finals didn't start very well, but we finally advanced to the finals, and the goal of this group of semi-finals is to qualify for the finals. Please cheer me on, thanks! ”

Su Zu beckoned, replied simply, didn't stay too much, the top four players in the same group had already left quickly at this time, ready to return to the check-in lounge to seize the time to rest.

It's only about two hours away, and the next group of finals is about to begin, and it's time to rest and stay in shape.

As for the other four runners who failed to make it to the final, they also left the track area near the finish line at the request of the referees and staff.

It's just that what Su Zu didn't expect was that the first time he faced the CCTV camera at close range had been directly transmitted to thousands of households through live TV.

In a village where he was raised, it was the first time that many people saw him on TV so closely, just one sentence, but the feeling was so familiar and strange.

Some people don't have a particularly deep feeling when they look at the game, whether they win or lose, a few tenths of a second, a few thousandths of a second, there are not many people with this concept, and the mentality of joining in the fun occupies a large component.

It's just that when the person who was still playing on the screen suddenly spoke to everyone at close range on the TV screen, the simple emotion was born, this is the teenager we watched grow up.

There is no big family and country feelings, only simple and sincere pride, a teenager who grew up here, he went out.

He is now abroad in Athens, Greece, at the Olympic Games, on television.

Su Yuanhua stared blankly at the interview camera flashing in front of the TV, while Ye Qingmei on the side covered her mouth, with tears in her eyes.

At this moment, we are so proud of you!
