Chapter 045
The school took into account the death of Cheng Xiaodong's parents, so he gave him a week's vacation, and in addition to sitting on the grinding plate at home all day, he went to the north slope to sit in front of his parents' graves, and sat all day.
Cai Dani brought back the homework assigned by the teacher every day after school, put the schoolbag at home, and went to the north slope to look for him, although she was always stupid, Cai Dani did not bother him, she sat with him, and waited for him to get up and want to go home, she went back with her, sometimes afraid that he would be cold, and would bring him a piece of clothing.
"Dani, you won't be using it tomorrow."
After school today, as usual, Cai Dani sat with Cheng Xiaodong, but not long after, Cheng Xiaodong grabbed a handful of soil in his hand, slowly raised it, grabbed another handful, and repeated this action repeatedly.
"Why?"
Cai Dani was very incomprehensible, turned her head to look at him and asked.
Cheng Xiaodong didn't speak, got up and patted the soil on his buttocks, and walked towards the bottom of the hillside.
"Cheng Xiaodong, why are you going, it's so late, aren't you going home?"
Cai Dani watched Cheng Xiaodong walk in the direction of the outside of the village, and hurriedly chased after her, but Cheng Xiaodong didn't let her follow, and walked out of the village alone.
When she got home, as soon as Cai Dani told Cai Jianguo this, Cai Jianguo didn't delay for a second, and ran out, for fear that he would be in danger.
Chen Lianhua chased out with her clothes, but she didn't see Cai Jianguo.
After looking outside the village for a long time, I went to see the river several times, but I didn't see Cheng Xiaodong's figure, and I had no clue for a while, Cai Jianguo sat on the stone at the head of the village and smoked, one after another, staring at the entrance of the village with his eyes.
"Big country, what are you doing sitting here?"
The village chief came over on a bicycle, looked at Cai Jianguo, got out of the car and pushed it over, and the cigarette butts in one place made the village chief stunned.
"Why do you smoke so much!"
The village chief looked at him and couldn't help but mutter.
Cai Jianguo took the last puff of his cigarette, spit out the smoke, looked at the village chief with half-squinted eyes and asked, "Where did you come back?" ”
"There is a meeting in the township, what are you doing sitting here?"
After the village chief said a word, he pointed to Cai Jianguo and asked.
Cai Jianguo sighed, looked at the entrance of the village, and told Cheng Xiaodong about leaving the village, as soon as he heard this, the village chief's face changed instantly, and he put the bicycle ladder on and sat next to Cai Jianguo.
"Dongzi, this kid, is not as honest as his father, Dongzi is smart and heavy-minded, I don't know what he's thinking, and I can't ask, and now I suddenly left the village, and I really don't know where he went."
Cai Jianguo scratched his head anxiously, looked at the village chief, and said with an anxious face.
"In these ten miles and eight villages, is there a place for him to go?"
After the village chief asked this sentence, the two of them began to ponder, his father has no father and mother since he was a child, he grew up in the uncle's house, there are no brothers and sisters, it can be said that there is no family within a radius of ten miles and eight miles, from childhood to adulthood, he has never even been to the door of his grandmother's house, no one knows why.
"What is this called, I mentioned his family to the township at today's meeting, and the township chief said that I would take care of him more, how to give him benefits just applied for it, and this person doesn't know where to go!"
The village chief also squatted next to Cai Jianguo, and the two began to sigh, and the village chief also joined the smoking team.
Cheng Xiaodong came back from outside, looked at the two people smoking there at the entrance of the village, and knew that it was his fault, so he walked over and looked at Cai Jianguo to make compensation.
Cai Jianguo didn't care about anything else, as soon as he saw Cheng Xiaodong, he threw down the cigarette and hugged him in his arms, hugged him tightly, closed his eyes, and breathed a long sigh of relief.
"Child, no matter where you go, you have to tell your uncle of the great country, go out and play without saying a word, you see that you are in a hurry for the uncle of the great country."
The village chief also got up, looked at Cheng Xiaodong and said, seeing that Cheng Xiaodong was fine, he didn't worry about it in his heart, touched his head, and rode his bicycle home.
Cai Jianguo led Cheng Xiaodong, and the two of them walked in the village, no one spoke, during which Cai Jianguo secretly glanced at Cheng Xiaodong a few times, his eyes were straight, and he didn't know what to think again.
"I'm back."
Chen Lianhua cleaned up and took the meal, she was a reasonable and smart woman, she knew that Cai Jianguo would bring Dongzi back, as for where she went, why didn't she say these words in front of Dongzi, and she rarely said anything about the child.
As usual, Cheng Xiaodong followed them to dinner, and no matter how funny things they talked about, he didn't interject.
"Uncle, aunt, it's all my fault today, I shouldn't have gone out and didn't tell you, I'm worried about you."
For the first time, Cheng Xiaodong actually took the initiative to talk to them at the dinner table, Chen Lianhua was stunned, and then smiled and said that it was okay to catch up and go home for dinner.
"Not to mention leaving home, today we went to the thatched haystack to see the plane, you didn't go, everyone didn't even put the kite."
Cai Dani pouted, but her mouth was full of complaints, looking at Cheng Xiaodong and saying.
Yes, today is the day of the old plane.
Cheng Xiaodong was thinking about the calendar in his heart, but he didn't say anything.
"Dani, eat quickly."
Cai Jianguo was afraid that Dani's tone would make Cheng Xiaodong depressed, so he hurriedly urged her, Cai Dani pursed her lips, put down her rice bowl, and went back to the room without taking a bite.
"Uncle Dao, I will go back to school tomorrow, and I want to go back to my home."
Cheng Xiaodong's words made Chen Lianhua a little confused, and stopped halfway through the food in her mouth.
"Why do you want to go back to your house, my aunt is not used to living there?"
Chen Lianhua also put down the dishes and chopsticks and asked in a gentle tone.
"No, my aunt took good care of me, but I heard from others that the house would collapse if it was not occupied for a long time, and it was built by my father, and I didn't want to see the house deserted."
Cai Jianguo pondered for a while, looked at Cheng Xiaodong and said very seriously: "You are still young now, I don't worry about living by yourself, when you are fifteen years older, you can live if you want, in the past few years, we will go over every day to burn the kang for you, clean up the house, as long as the kang is burned every day, the house will not collapse, rest assured." ”
"Yes, you're still young, and you'll be scared to live by yourself at night."
Chen Lianhua was also beside her, and Cai Jianguo's words continued.
"Okay then."
Cheng Xiaodong is not too strong, he knows that Uncle Cai Jianguo and Aunt will not harm him, since they all say so, they naturally have their reasons.
"Let's eat first, finish eating and writing homework, I heard Dani say that the teacher left a lot of homework today, and took the exam, you can take a look in a while."
Listening to Cai Jianguo's words, Cheng Xiaodong looked at Cai Dani's house, her eyes darkened, she agreed that she didn't go to the plane today, and she must be complaining about herself now.
