Chapter Twenty-Nine
After sending the two of them away, Xu Jiuyan returned to the room and simply cleaned up, and he really rested, and he couldn't sleep comfortably on the train.
Chen Jiting returned home, put down the basket, and saw Chen's father reading the newspaper, and Chen's mother was winding the thread and said, "Mom, I brought things back." ”
Chen's mother raised her head, put down the thread and walked over and said, "Why did you come back, the meal has passed, have you gone to eat?" ”
Chen Ting hurriedly said: "After eating, I ate all-white steamed buns, drank white rice porridge, and fried meat with bamboo shoots." ”
"Have you gone to a restaurant? Got your tickets with you? The tickets you gave them? Alas, we have bamboo shoots here? Mother Chen listened and turned around and asked Father Chen.
Chen's father put down the newspaper and looked at Chen Jiting, Chen Jiting peeked at his father, squeaky and whined.
Chen Ting looked at it, and said directly with oil on the soles of her feet: "Uncle, I went home first." ”
Chen Jiting glanced at her and said, "I didn't bring a ticket, I didn't expect to eat, I went to help Jiuyan clean up, and then I forgot the time to eat at Jiuyan's place." ”
Father Chen looked at Chen Jiting and asked, "Nine words?" ”
"It's a friend who brought things back for the eldest brother, by the way, everything is here."
Chen Jiting moved the back basket to his mother's side.
Chen's mother frowned and said, "You can really eat the all-white steamed buns." You sort things out, and I'll get the list. ”
Chen Jiting hurriedly sorted out the things in the back basket, and Chen's mother took out a letter after a while, compared the items with the letter, and put away the letter to make sure that there was no mistake.
raised his eyebrows and said to Chen Jiting with disgust: "Can you have a snack, we should invite others to help, you are good, and you will eat other people's food for nothing." ”
"I was wrong, and so was I"
Chen's father picked up the newspaper again and said: "Okay, the little things see the character, you go and see it tomorrow, where you can help, do more, your eldest brother still has the eye to see people, since he is relieved to entrust it, it means that this person is still reliable." You're observing, the people you can associate with, don't care. ”
Mother Chen couldn't help but say to him again: "You said that you are not too young, why are you so brainless, whose food is easy now, that is, our family is not what it used to be, you don't know!" ”
"Oh, Mom, I know it's wrong, I, alas, I'll just invite her back tomorrow."
"What can you do, do you have a brain? No matter how good you invite someone to eat, you can only take care of one meal, and the two of you eat one meal from others may be someone else's meal for a few days, do you understand! ”
"Then what to do, I've eaten everything, I don't think Jiuyan is bad for this meal. By the way, her family lives on Campus Road, Dufu, not far from my uncle's house, so she won't run out of food, so I'll give her a meal ticket tomorrow. ”
"Where to live there are also hungry! Use your brain more before you encounter an accident, don't just look at the present, your father taught you in vain. Chen Mubai glanced at him and turned to leave.
Chen Jiting touched the back of his head, and was about to go back to the room, when he suddenly remembered something and chased after Chen's mother, and heard shouting: "Mom, give me food stamps." ”
Father Chen raised his eyes and frowned at Chen Jiting and said, "Stop, what do you look like." Don't go tomorrow to deliver food stamps, and when your mother goes to your uncle's house in a few days, you can go with you, and bring something to deliver to others. ”
Chen Jiting immediately nodded in response, and when he saw his father looking down at the newspaper again, he ran directly to find his mother.
Xu Jiuyan was really tired, and slept until dawn the next day.
I couldn't sleep when I woke up, I looked at the ice stubble outside the window, nested in the quilt and didn't want to come out, until the sun came out and the ice flowers on the window melted before I got up.
"Oh, I want to be cold when it's hot, and it's really uncomfortable when it's cold."
Xu Jiuyan walked out of the main room, shivered from the cold, and said to himself.
After washing, I took out the stew in the space and ate a big bowl, and I was relieved, which was called a comfortable.
After thinking about it, I sorted out some things, took out a banana, a big mango, and took two catties of polished rice, two large handfuls of mushroom fungus, two rice cakes, and five meters of coarse cloth. The bananas contained five catties of national food stamps and three military industrial coupons. Put your stuff in your big bag.
I looked at the wall clock, it was ten o'clock, and I went to the old principal's house two streets back with my things on my back.
Xu Jiuyan's uniform is very convenient, and he will not be suspected of carrying something, so this time Xu Jiuyan dared to go to the door in broad daylight.
knocked on the door, and it was the old principal's eldest daughter-in-law, surnamed Yang, who was also a teacher.
"Letters? Oops, isn't this Xiaobao? I don't even recognize you in this dress. ”
"Hello Aunt Qin, I just came back yesterday and came to see Grandpa Qin."
"It's not, I've been so far away, hey, don't talk here, come in, it's cold, your Grandpa Qin talked about you yesterday, it's almost the New Year, and I can't remember it in my heart."
Entering the house, Old Principal Qin was talking to his eldest son, and Qin Du was sitting next to him. Qin Du and Xu Jiuyan are alumni, one level higher than Xu Jiuyan, and they should have graduated from high school by now.
Xu Jiuyan put down the things in his hand and shouted with a smile: "Grandpa Qin is good, Uncle Qin is good, Aunt Qin is good, Brother Qin is good, Xiao Yan is giving you a New Year's greeting." ”
Old Man Qin looked at Xu Jiuyan and beckoned her to sit down with a smile, while Aunt Qin turned around and went out.
"Xiaobao is tired all the way."
"No, the sleeper ticket I bought will come all the way, I just got home yesterday, cleaned the house, and came over today to pay a New Year's greeting to Grandpa Qin, and the province will make you worry about me."
"Hehe, look at Xiaobao is still sensible, unlike this uneasy one, running out all day long." Old Man Qin pointed at Qin Du with a smile and said.
"Brother Qin is an excellent student representative, Grandpa Qin can't help me, I'm an alumnus of Brother Qin."
"Haha, you little girl. What's the environment like in the south? ”
Xu Jiuyan said with a smile: "It's good, I'm thinking about my home over there, and I think it's good to be a hot spot when I come back to freeze for me." ”
"Haha, the difference between the north and the south is indeed big, alas! I'm old, and I don't know if I can go out for a walk. ”
"Hey, Grandpa Qin is getting old and strong, and he will definitely be able to watch our country get better and better."
"Xiaobao, Grandpa Qin cheekily asks you for a favor, is it feasible to take your Brother Qin to the south?"
"Grandpa Qin, if you can arrange for Brother Qin to go over, Brother Qin can be diligent and silent, I don't dare to say anything else, I can't starve Brother Qin."
Old Man Qin and Uncle Qin glanced at each other, turned his head to Xu Jiuyan and said, "Xiaobao, is something wrong with your Uncle Tan?" ”
"Yes. Grandpa Qin, I won't hide it with you, Uncle Tan is not a big deal about this, the key is to see if the person who does this is reliable. ”
Old Man Qin was surprised, leaned forward and said, "You have a way!" ”
"Grandpa Qin, although I am young, I am also an understanding person, I am most worried about Uncle Tan's accident, I have taken some roads and got a way, but I can't go to this road, and I must be absolutely reliable people to do it."
"Okay, I understand, you have a heart. Good boys are good boys. Twilight, you must listen to Xiaobao when you go to the south, understand? ”
Qin Duan's honest answer should be yes.
"Grandpa Qin said and laughed, where do I know how much Brother Qin has, I have to listen to him."
"Hehe, your own child knows that he is far worse than you. Twilight is going to let your mom cut meat and cook, and Wei Guo is going upstairs to get my glasses. ”
Old Man Qin walked away and said to Xu Jiuyan, "Tell me about your way." ”
"Grandpa Qin is not in a hurry on this road, I have already cast a net, and I have found a striker, you want Brother Qin to go to the south, I can't say that I will be able to get a chance." I'm at the post office now, and I can't say that I can get a job for Brother Qin, but it definitely won't work at first, it depends on the forward's actions, and we can't fall into the trap. ”
"Grandpa Qin, you ask the people in Uncle Tan's family who can stand up to the problem to shout grievances, just shout, shout and go to the city in a few days, don't make trouble, just shout grievances, don't make too much effort, just let people know that there is such a thing, and other self-owned forwards will help us deal with it"
"Okay, you go and operate, I'll send a letter to Xiao Tan's family."
"If this matter is over, it is best for Uncle Tan to work in another place, in case someone makes a fuss."
"Well, I'll give him an explanation. Xiaobao, Qin Du will be handed over to you, you just have to arrange, if he dares to be disobedient, you tell me, I will never spare him. ”
"Grandpa Qin teased me again."
The two chatted for a while, and Qin Duan came in to call for dinner.
Xu Jiuyan didn't postpone it, and went home after having lunch at Qin's house.
As soon as Qin Jiuyan left, Aunt Qin took the things Qin Jiuyan brought and put them on the coffee table and said, "Dad, this gift is too heavy." ”
Uncle Qin took the ticket and looked at it, took out the industrial coupon and said, "Military coupons, this is not easy to get." ”
Old Man Qin looked at it and said, "Put it away, Xiaobao, this kid is a smart one, he can leave decisively when the wind rises, what kind of courage and strategy?" It's just that we don't have that kind of knowledge. Xiaodui, this is a ready-made good teacher, you go to the south to listen and watch more, if you have something to find Xiaobao, we are far away, far water can't quench your thirst, Xiaobao is your backing. ”
"Yes, Grandpa, I see."
Aunt Qin looked at her son and looked at the old man, and the old man said to her: "Now I can still be a little useful, and it is important to send the child out first while the fire is not burning." Besides, don't underestimate Xiaoyan, look at things, think about her situation, it's been more than a year to get to this point, and you don't have the ability to do it? ”
And she also has a way to do Xiao Tan, she said that she can help Xiao Twilight find a job when the time comes, which shows her ability, where is the safest place at this time? These three military industrial coupons are even more of a signal, who can catch up with the military now? ”
Aunt Qin asked eagerly, "Do we have to return such a heavy gift?" ”
"It's going back, don't worry, she just came back, look at her next move, this kid is a success. Twilight could have moved around a little more, you're the same age, so there's no harm in talking more. ”
Xu Jiuyan went home, and after a while, he went out to the house of a few good friends of Grandma Xu's life, but he didn't go empty-handed, and the gifts were all southern specialties, of course, there was no etiquette from Principal Qin's family, but it was not light.
