The market items of the root of the year are abundant, some mountain delicacies are placed everywhere, close to the mountains is good, a wild rabbit is fat and big and not expensive, get two, go home and eat one first, and the other one is also hung up to eat for the New Year.

The money spent on New Year's goods is not distressed, the money is spent, but the money is very happy, Shi Dayong bought dried mushrooms to prepare for stewing the two air-dried chickens, and bought vermicelli, bacon and so on, Lin Lin bought a lot of things, thinking that the family was satisfied with eating a sumptuous Chinese New Year's Eve meal, Shi Dayong's face couldn't help but smile, he whistled to start the vehicle and prepare to go home.

The road was full of people rushing to the market, and Shi Dayong didn't dare to drive too fast, he steadied the steering wheel, until he left the market far behind, and saw that there was no one, so he raised the speed.

This road Shi Dayong has to run many times a day, where there are curves, where there is downhill, he has long been familiar with it, and there will be a sharp turn ahead, Shi Dayong is ready to slow down the speed in advance.

"I am a soldier, from the common people......" Shi Dayong hummed in his mouth, skillfully operated under his feet, the moment his right foot was clicked, Shi Dayong did not feel resistance, he was in a hurry, his right foot stepped directly to the end, and he did not feel any pause or slowing down of the car.

Broken! Brake failure! In an instant, Shi Dayong broke out in a cold sweat, you must know that if the speed of the sharp turn is too fast, if you are not careful, you will either hit the mountain or fall off the cliff, no matter which result, the car will be destroyed and killed.

The atmosphere changed from relaxed and comfortable just now, and suddenly became nervous, Shi Dayong looked serious, he pursed his lips tightly, and told himself that he must be calm, he clenched the steering wheel, looked ahead, and kept stepping on the brakes under his feet.

"Squeak-" There was a shrill brake sound, and the car jerked forward and stopped.

"Boy, you're scared to death!" Shi Dayong wiped a cold sweat and parked the car on the side of the road. According to his experience, the cause of brake failure must be a problem with the brake pipe, Shi Dayong parked the car, lay under the car to check the brake system, sure enough, he found a tiny crack in the brake tube, the gap is very small, if he didn't look too carefully, he couldn't see it at all.

"Grandma's, it's really your business." Shi Dayong got out from under the car, grabbed a handful of loess on the side of the road, and rubbed the oil on his hands.

The car started again, Shi Dayong drove very slowly, he stepped on the brake from time to time to feel the state of the brake tube, but he didn't expect the brake to become very sensitive, as if the failure just now was his delusion, "Could it be that I feel wrong?" Shi Dayong muttered, the speed was raised, and then he stepped on the brakes, but he was still very sensitive, and until he got home, the brakes were no longer abnormal.

Shi Dayong arrived home late today, Ruimin had already gotten off work, Shi Dayong squatted by the basin to wash his hands, Ruimin stood next to him and asked, "Big brother, don't you plan to go back to your hometown this year?" ”

The engine oil is difficult to wash, Shi Dayong grabbed the washing clothes and scratched while rubbing, "Don't go back, what's the matter?" Do you want to go back? ”

"Well, I'm so idle, I want to go back and have a look." Ruimin has now changed to the communication room, the work is brisk, tired, and the management is not too tight, as long as there are people in the house, he discussed it with a few workers, and in the first year he went back to his hometown, his class first let the workers replace him, and then he came back again.

"When are you going to go?" Shi Dayong looked up at Ruimin, who hurriedly scooped a scoop of water from the bucket to flush the black foam on his eldest brother's hand, "The day after tomorrow, if you don't leave tomorrow, you will leave the day after tomorrow." ”

"Oh." Shi Dayong shook off the water beads in his hand, pulled a towel from the rope and wiped it, "It's okay, you go back and see how the bricks are ready, how much is missing, come back and tell me." ”

"Hmm." Ruimin agreed, and followed his eldest brother into the house.

Shi Ke has already finished his winter vacation homework, and now he is playing with his two younger sisters every day, the house is too small, there are many people, and they all have to stay in the house, and there is no room for even the feet, Shi Dayong was startled on the road, and he still has palpitations, and the chatter of his daughter made him upset, Shi Dayong frowned, "Coco, take your sister to play." ”

"Oh." Shi Ke led the two sisters to the yard, Wang Ying was cooking under the eaves, and the daughter of the cold winter Layue was not staying warm in the house, so what did she do outside? She hurriedly called her daughter, "Coco, what are you doing when it's so cold?" ”

"Dad said let's play while we go." An An pouted and said first.

"What's going on? Come back and be angry with your daughter. Wang Ying muttered dissatisfiedly, and said to the three daughters: "Go back to the house, stay in the inner room, and don't come out." ”

When Wang Ying entered the house with food, he took a special look at Shi Dayong's face, and saw that Shi Dayong was not abnormal, so he was relieved.

After setting the table, Wang Ying took Shi Nian from her mother-in-law, "Mother, you eat first, and I'll feed Niannian." ”

Wang Ying gave her son steamed egg custard, she scooped a small spoonful and blew it, tried to keep it on her lips, and filled it into her son's mouth, "Dayong." She touched Shi Dayong's arm, "It's going to be the New Year, last time you said you were going to Changzhi to see He Xiaoxia and his brother before the year, should we still go?" ”

He Xiaoxia's eldest brother, as a soldier, was assigned to Changzhi's bearing factory as a military representative, Changzhi is not far from here, more than 200 miles, such a close relative, Shi Dayong wanted to walk around a year ago.

People like them who have gathered together in the South China Sea and North these days, let alone such close relatives, are from a province, they are all fellow villagers, and they are not close emotionally.

"Go." Shi Dayong said with some fear: "However, my car has been repaired, Wang Wendong's car seems to have a little problem, and he almost had an accident today." ”

Wang Ying's heart slammed "pop", the car is the driver's lifeline, she hurriedly said: "It doesn't matter if you go to relatives, safety first is the big thing, you can't have an accident." Speaking of this, Wang Ying put down the rice bowl in his hand and grabbed Shi Dayong's arm, "You hurry up and tell the captain tomorrow, we won't get out of the car." ”

Feeling his wife's nervousness, Shi Dayong patted the back of Wang Ying's hand and comforted: "Don't be afraid, I'll go to Captain Chen tomorrow." ”

After breakfast the next day, Wang Ying urged Shi Dayong, "You hurry up and tell the captain to go, just say that we won't get out of the car." ”

"I'll go now, don't worry." Shi Dayong agreed, put on his padded jacket and walked out.

Shi Dayong carried the key and went straight to Chen Ping's office, he knocked on the door first, and then directly pushed the door open, "Captain Chen." ”

Chen Ping made a cup of hot tea, he held the newspaper in one hand, and drank it in his stomach with a teacup in the other, when he heard a knock on the door, he raised his head, just as Shi Dayong entered the door, "Dayong, is there something wrong?" ”

"I'll hand over the keys." Shi Dayong shook the key, "I can't drive this car, the brake pipe is a little leaky, and I almost had an accident yesterday." ”

"Can't you?" Chen Ping thought that Shi Dayong was making excuses, his face sank, "I know Wang Wendong, he is careful about the car, and he will hurry up to fix it if there is a little problem." ”

"True Captain, I don't lie to you." Shi Dayong's tone was a little anxious, "I really almost couldn't stop the car yesterday." ”

"Just a little bit of air, right?" Chen Ping didn't listen to Shi Dayong's defense at all, and continued: "You see that everyone else has left the car, if you don't do it today, I can't find anyone to replace you, otherwise you will do it again today, and I will arrange someone else tomorrow." ”

"Captain-" Shi Dayong was about to say more, but Chen Ping pushed the back of his hand outward, "Okay, it's not early, go quickly, don't forget to bring the door to me." ”

Chen Ping's words outside the meaning of the words is to pick up people, Shi Dayong had to withdraw, he tossed the key in his palm, dejected to the car, he sat in the cab and thought for a moment, luck psychology prevailed, it should be nothing, and then came back all the way to be fine, anyway, the captain said, just do it for a day today, tomorrow will be replaced, and tomorrow I will hand over the key, and the car condition will be explained clearly to the successor.

Shi Dayong drove the car to the gate of the family courtyard and returned home to find Wang Ying.

Today's weather is very good, Wang Ying wants to see the cabbage in the vegetable cellar, she just went down to the vegetable cellar, a musty smell came to the nose, Wang Ying said: Broken, there must be rotten vegetables. This cellar of vegetables will be eaten until the spring of next year, and it will start to rot, what will I do next year? When her eyes adjusted to the light of the vegetable cellar, she found that it was the smell of the cabbage in Tun, but fortunately, the weather was good today, and she could save it by picking off the rotten leaves outside and drying them in the sun.

Wang Ying climbed up from the cellar, exposed half of her body and shouted into the house, "Coco, come and help my mother dry the cabbage." ”

Shi Ke heard his mother's voice and hurriedly ran outside, An Anhe thought that it was his sister's little tail now, and wherever his sister went, they would go wherever they went, and they all ran out behind his sister.

"Coco, mom handed you the food, and you put it along the wall." After Wang Ying finished speaking, he began to go back to move the cabbage, Wang Ying put the cabbage at the door of the vegetable cellar, and the three little sisters put it to the root of the wall one by one.

"Yingzi." Shi Dayong squatted at the door of the vegetable cellar and shouted inside.

Dayong came back, Wang Ying hurriedly raised his head and asked, "Dayong, did you tell the captain?" ”

Shi Dayong handed the dishes at hand to his daughter, "I told the captain, he said let me open today for another day, and I will change people tomorrow, He Xiaoxia and his eldest brother, are you still going?" ”

"What are you going to do! You didn't see that the cabbage is rotten, I can't go, I have to dry the cabbage. Wang Ying climbed two steps, looked at Shi Dayong worriedly and said, "Didn't you say that the brake pipe is leaking, can you get out of the car again?" ”

"I told the captain, the captain doesn't believe it, I'll be careful to open it today, it shouldn't be a big deal."

"Then you should make a few fewer trips today and come back early."

"Okay, don't worry."

Wang Ying watched Shi Dayong go out of the gate before she continued to return to the vegetable cellar.

Shi Dayong sat back in the car and patted the steering wheel and said, "Man, you can't lose your temper with me today." ”
