Chapter Twenty-Four: A Misunderstanding
The middle-aged man listened to the discussion around him, and drank some wine, so he raised his hand in anger and was about to hit Huang Wen. Jiang Yuehua saw that Huang Wen was angry for herself, but that person wanted to beat her, and she was so frightened that she stretched out her hand to stop her. Pu Jia's eyes widened in fright, "Don't!" ”
The people watching around also looked at the man in shock, seeing that the man's hand fell, everyone thought that this woman was afraid that she would not be able to hide. Huang Wen was also very scared, after all, her husband had never beaten herself for so many years of marriage.
Suddenly, a hand reached out and grabbed the man's wrist, and the man saw that his hand was caught, and looked at the person who grabbed his hand in surprise. It was Dong Zhanyang who grabbed his wrist, although he was still a high school student, he was also 1.8 meters tall, and the height of a seventeen or eighteen-year-old boy had almost grown up, plus he often played basketball, so his physical exercise was very good.
How could Dong Zhanyang watch his mother being beaten, so he hurried up to stop it, Pu Jia and Jiang Yuehua were also relieved to see that Huang Wen was not beaten.
"Who do you think you are? Can you hit whoever you want? My mom is also what you can beat? Dong Zhanyang is really angry now, even if his father and mother occasionally quarrel, his father has never beaten his mother, so in Dong Zhanyang's heart, a man who dares to beat a woman is not a man.
Pu Jia looked at Dong Zhanyang at this time, obviously a teenage boy, but Pu Jia looked very manly.
The middle-aged man saw Dong Zhanyang standing in front of him, and he was instantly stunned.
At this time, there was a woman in the New Year's Festival, looking east and west. Walking near Pujia's stall, I saw that there were so many people gathered here, as if they were arguing, and the woman thought about it, so she quickly squeezed in. When I went in, I saw that this was exactly the person I was looking for - the woman's husband. She raised her hand and touched the man's ear: "You will be terrible after a few sips of wine, don't embarrass me here, hurry home!" ”
When the man saw his wife coming, he covered his ears with one hand: "Wife, let go!" What about so many people? ”
"You know so many people, what are you messing around here?" The woman didn't let go of the man's ear.
"I know it's wrong, let go!" The man whispered.
The woman let go of her hand and said to Jiang Yuehua: "I'm really sorry, my husband bought a golden pig from you in the morning, and drank some wine with a friend outside at noon. I'm so embarrassed! ”
"Why don't you apologize to the boss quickly?" And the woman said to the man.
"Sister, I'm sorry!" The man honestly said that he didn't have the domineering appearance just now, and he seemed to be afraid of his wife.
"You should have said sorry to my sister, you almost hit someone." Jiang Yuehua pointed at Huang Wen and said.
"What, you still dare to hit someone." When the woman heard this, she became even more angry.
"I'm sorry, I was wrong, don't be angry!" The man hurriedly apologized to his wife.
"You should tell people you're sorry." The woman pointed at Huang Wen and said.
"Big sister, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to." The man hurriedly apologized to Huang Wen, for fear that his wife would be angry again.
"Forget it, I didn't hit it anyway." Huang Wen saw that this woman was so sensible and didn't care about him.
"I'm so sorry, I'll take him home first." The woman dragged the man out as she spoke.
The people around also understood that this man had drunk and came to make trouble. Now that the troublemakers are gone, they will naturally disperse.
"Huang Wen, thank you so much today. Fortunately, your son is here, otherwise he would have been beaten by him, and I would have died of guilt. Jiang Yuehua saw that the people around her were gone, and said to Huang Wen gratefully
"Thank you, we are all friends, and it is appropriate to help each other."
"Zhan Yang is such a good boy, if it weren't for you, I wouldn't know what to do." Jiang Yuehua said to Dong Zhanyang.
"Auntie, you're welcome!"
"Since it's okay, I'll go back first, and Xu Xu is alone at the food stall." Huang Wen said.
"Hey, go back and get busy! I'll be the east another day, and I'll invite you to dinner. ”
"It's okay to get together when you're free, but I still have something to ask you to help with?" Huang Wen remembered the matter of recognizing Pu Jiagan's daughter.
"Okay, if you have something, you can say it! As long as I can help, I will definitely help. ,”
Huang Wen and Dong Zhanyang went back to the food stall.
After such a toss, it was already dark outside, and Dad Pu came after work, and as soon as he arrived, Jiang Yuehua told him about today's events.
"Thanks to Huang Wen and her son today, I want to thank them another day." Jiang Yuehua said to Pu's father again.
"Well, thank you! Thanks to a farce today, you two will have to be careful here in the future! If you encounter this kind of difficult person again, you can't call the police, money is small, and safety is the most important. Pu Dad instructed.
"You know that you won't be there once when something happens!" Jiang Yuehua couldn't help complaining.
"I'm not going to work, I'm definitely here if I don't go to work."
"Okay, okay, I didn't count on you anyway!"
Pu Jia saw that her mother began to nag again, afraid that the two of them would quarrel here, so she hurriedly said, "Mom, don't say it, someone is reading the couplet." ”
Jiang Yuehua saw that someone was really coming, so she glanced at her father and stopped talking.
Dad Pu was told by Jiang Yuehua, and sat on the side sulking.
Pu Jia looks at this and that, and is also very depressed, and can quarrel at any time, hey!
One sunny morning, after breakfast, Lin Jing remembered that the New Year's Festival had been open for a long time, and she hadn't been there yet.
"Mom, do you remember Pu Jia? Am I at the same table? Lin Jing said to her mother, who was packing her things.
"Pujia?" Lin Jing's mother thought for a moment, "Is it the girl in your dormitory on the day of school?" ”
"Yes, her mother got a stall on the New Year's Festival, I'm going to see it today, do you want to go?" Lin Jing said.
"I'm not free today, your grandma's steamed steamed buns will be steamed in a while, I'll help, you can go yourself!" Shencheng has always had a custom since ancient times, and every household should steam steamed steamed buns during the New Year, which means that there will be a good harvest in the coming year. (The so-called flower steamed bun is to put a petal made of dough on the finished steamed bun, and put a red date in the middle of the petal.) There is also an oval dough that is 20 cm long and 15 cm wide, and a large ear of wheat made of flour is placed along the edge of the bottom half of the dough, and in the middle of the dough are flowers made of flour, and corn is made of flour. There are also many people who will make something else and put it on it, and then put red dates on the flowers, corn and ears of wheat, and steam them in the pot after they are done. There are also places that call this jujube mountain because there are a lot of red dates on it. With the development of the times, the rise of high-rise buildings in Shencheng, and the people of Shencheng are not farming, so this custom is gradually forgotten by many people, and many people still remember, so there are also some steamed bun shops on the street, and bakeries specialize in this to sell. There are also elderly people who have always insisted on doing it themselves, and feel that it is better to do it themselves. Lin Jing's grandmother does it every year.
"Well, then I'll go by myself! Do you want me to see what to buy? Lin Jing said.
"I'll give you the money, you can watch and buy it, don't buy any more mess!" Lin Jing's mother said that she remembered the cosmetics that Lin Jing bought during the summer vacation.
"Okay, I know, I'm still a child and can't wear makeup, just buy it once, haven't you forgotten?" Lin Jing muttered.
"When you grow up, I won't care about you." Although Lin Jing's mother said this, she was not angry.
Lin Jing went out after saying goodbye to her mother, and as soon as she went downstairs, she met someone who was very familiar but didn't want to deal with her.
"Lin Jing, why are you going?" Isn't this the boy sitting in the back row of Lin Jing?
"Sun Lei, can you stop pestering me!" It turned out that his name was Sun Lei, and Lin Jing remembered that when she saw Sun Lei downstairs about a month ago, she felt a headache.
A month ago, Sun Lei's family had just moved to this community, Sun Lei went downstairs to familiarize himself with the community environment, and when he saw a familiar figure, he chased after him. He walked behind Lin Jing and shouted, "Lin Jing!" ”
Lin Jing turned around and saw Sun Lei standing behind him with a look of surprise.
"Why are you here?" Lin Jing asked.
"I just moved in, do you live here too? Great, we're in good shape. Sun Lei said happily.
"Whoever is destined for you, stay away from me." When Sun Lei was at school, he always pestered Lin Jing, so Lin Jing saw how far away he was and how far he hid, and he was about to leave after speaking.
"Lin Jing, we will be neighbors in the future, take care of each other." Sun Lei shouted behind Lin Jing.
I didn't expect to go to see Pu Jia today, and when I got downstairs, I met Sun Lei again, why did I carry it so much.
"What do you mean by pestering you, we are neighbors, isn't it normal to see each other? Where are you going? Can you bring me along? Sun Lei didn't care about Lin Jing's impatience, and continued to say enthusiastically.
"Why should I tell you, don't follow me." After Lin Jing finished speaking, she ignored Sun Lei, so she quickened her pace and walked to the bus stop.
"Lin Jing, slow down, wait for me!" Sun Lei hurriedly followed.
Lin Jing didn't pay attention to him. When she arrived at the bus station, Lin Jing thought about the place where Pu Jia told her about the New Year's Festival, and found a bus that could be reached on the bus stop sign. Sun Lei followed and looked at the bus that Lin Jing was looking for.
"Hey, isn't this the car from last year's festival square? Did you last year's festival? "Sun Lei went to the New Year's Festival before, so he knows.
Lin Jing gave him a blank look, ignored him, and stood on the platform waiting for the train.
Sun Lei also stood beside Lin Jing and waited.
The bus came, Lin Jing got on the bus and found a seat to sit down. Sun Lei followed behind and got on the bus and sat in the empty seat behind Lin Jing.
"Why are you still following me?" Lin Jing saw Sun Lei sitting behind him.
"I'll go with you, and I can help you carry your things. Hey! Sun Lei said with a hippie smile.
Lin Jing is no longer surprised by Sun Lei's cheekiness, and she doesn't care about him, and she can't get rid of it, so she can follow if she wants. Lin Jing simply closed her eyes and pretended to sleep, the bus swayed, but she didn't expect to really fall asleep.
"Lin Jing, Lin Jing, it's here, it's time to get off!" Sun Lei shook Lin Jing's shoulder and called her.
Lin Jing opened her eyes, heard Sun Lei's words clearly, and saw that the car had stopped, so she quickly stood up and got out of the car.
After getting out of the car, Lin Jing said to Sun Lei: "Thank you!" "Although I don't like Sun Lei, if it weren't for him today, I would have done a stand.
When Sun Lei heard that Lin Jing actually thanked him, he was flattered: "Thank you, as long as you don't hide from me in the future." ”
"Don't you have to inch in, this time is this time, the future is later, it's not that you helped me this time, you can pester me in the future, you still have to stay away from me in the future." After Lin Jing finished speaking, he walked towards the New Year's Festival.
