Chapter Seventy-Two: Shocking
Looking forward to, looking forward to, the National Day has arrived.
Li Qing received a call from Meng Meng
"Mom, we have a holiday tomorrow"
"Oh, do you want me to pick you up from school?"
"No, as soon as the holidays are over, we have to put out a long queue at the bus at the school gate, I don't have anything, just a schoolbag, just come back by myself."
"Okay, I'll wait for you to eat at noon, I'll work tomorrow afternoon."
"Hmm"
At ten o'clock, Meng Meng returned home and came in the door, sweating all over.
Holding Li Qing and kissing Li Qing's face,
"Mom, I miss you so much"
Li Qing smiled, helped take off the backpack and schoolbag, unzipped the schoolbag, and it was full of books, and said
"Mengmeng, what is the packaging of your book, it is so heavy, you bring so many books home?"
"Many Jobs"
"Mom, what about Dad, didn't Dad say back?"
"He'll be home tomorrow night"
Meng Meng hugged Li Qing and chattered non-stop,
"Mom, I miss you so much"
Li Qing smiled and pushed away Mengmeng's hand, "Don't pretend, hehehe, I'm going to cook,"
After eating at noon, Li Qing cleaned up the kitchen and said to Mengmeng
"Mengmeng, I'll rest for a while, wake me up at one o'clock." Li Qing went to the master bedroom and lay down on the bed.
"Okay" Meng Meng happily agreed, jumped to his room, and turned on the computer.
Li Qing felt that Meng Meng was rarely on vacation, let her relax and relax, and vaguely heard the sound of swords dancing in the computer.
Li Qing set an alarm on his mobile phone.
Sure enough, the alarm rang at one o'clock, Mengmeng didn't come over to call Li Qing, Li Qing got up from the bed, walked to the door, and looked at the second bedroom, Mengmeng turned her back to the door, sat in front of the computer, her hands crackled on the keyboard, and several people in ancient costumes on the computer screen kept waving the sword in their hands, the cold light of the sword flashed and flashed, and she moved her steps briskly while fighting...
Li Qing went to the bathroom to wash up, and Meng Meng ran over and said, "Oh, Mom, I was about to call you, you woke up by yourself, hahaha,"
"I've set my own alarm, and I don't rely on you anymore to see the sword and sword shadow you tear up."
"Hahaha, I just lost track of time"
"I go to work in the afternoon, and you cook hot food by yourself in the evening. You have to write your homework, you can't just play games."
"Mom, I know, I'll go home on vacation to play, how can I have the opportunity to play games, I will heat rice, and I will cook rice in the rice cooker."
"Hehehe, look at what you can, how much technical content does it take to cook rice in a rice cooker?"
"Hahaha"
At half past nine in the evening, Li Qing came home from work, with a half-drunk bottle of drink and some snacks on the dining table, and went to the kitchen to see that the leftovers at noon were still in the rice cooker.
"Mengmeng, I didn't eat at night"
"In the afternoon, I went to the street with my classmates to walk and play, and then Yi watched a movie together and ate outside,"
Meng Meng walked out of the bathroom.
"I just got home, Mom, you just got off work."
.“ Well, I didn't move my food, I thought you didn't think the food was good, and you went on a hunger strike."
"I wouldn't be so stupid"
"Look at your phone, what time is it, and ask where your dad is?"
"Dad just sent a message saying that it will take two hours to get home"
"Then it's going to be eleven o'clock, Mengmeng, you wash and sleep first"
"Hmm"
Meng Meng went to the second bedroom after taking a shower and closed the door.
Li Qing picked up his pajamas and came to the bathroom, with a "click", the indicator light of the electric water heater had jumped to keep warm, Li Qing reached out and pressed the power switch, and the indicator light went out.
Li Qing took off his clothes,
Holding the flower sprinkler in his left hand, and opening the raft with his right hand,
The water flowed out of the small hole at the front end of the flower sprinkler, Li Qing stretched out his right hand, put the palm of his hand under the water sprinkler, tried the water temperature, and felt that the water temperature was not high enough.
Turn the raft to the left hot water, test the temperature of the water with the palm of your hand, warm, put the flower stalk into the wall shelf, then raise your arm, put the palm of your left hand against your scalp, and grab your hair with your fingers.
Gently pull off the head rope with one hand, stand until the water runs down, wet the hair, pour some shampoo in the palm of your hand, rub it open, wipe it on your hair, rub it with your fingertips, start washing your hair, then wash your body, and finally rinse it from the beginning and dry your head with a dry towel
Hair, wrap up, put on pajamas, open the bathroom window, reach out and press the power switch, and the boiling water indicator light is on again.
Li Qing walked out of the bathroom and dried his hair with a hair dryer.
It was already more than eleven o'clock in the middle of the night, there was no light in the second bedroom, and Meng Meng fell asleep in the small room.
Li Qing added some cold water to the leftovers of the rice cooker and plugged the rice cooker into the power supply.
Li Qing leaned on the bed and listened to the song, waiting for Ouyang.
"Knock knock knock", the sound of someone's footsteps going up the stairs, Li Qing put down his mobile phone, lifted the quilt, quickly got out of bed, and walked to the gate, the sound of knock knocks was gone, and there was a sound of closing the door downstairs.
It was the downstairs neighbor who came home.
Li Qing went back to the room and got into bed, picked up his mobile phone to check the time, put his mobile phone on the bedside table, and turned off the music.
Li Qing counted the time, Ouyang should have arrived home at this time, his ears were pricked up and he listened carefully to the sound outside the door, and after a while, there was a "knock, knock," the footsteps going upstairs, getting closer and closer,
Heavier and heavier .. Boom! With the sound of stomping his feet, Li Qing hurriedly got out of bed, walked to the gate, and saw from the cat's eye at the door that the sensor light at the door of his house was on, and there was a sound of the key, followed by the sound of opening the door lock, and the door opened.
Ouyang Fengchen was simple, holding a duffel bag in one hand, and stepped into the door.
Li Qing rushed over, put his hands around Ouyang's neck, Ouyang put down his handbag, hugged Li Qing tightly with both hands, and passed
For more than ten minutes, Ouyang held Li Qing and said with a smile
"Baby, I'll come to see the baby, and I'll go to sleep before Dad comes back." ’
Li Qing said softly
''I've been busy all day today, and I'm probably tired. ”
Li Qing carried Ouyang's suitcase into the room.
Ouyang walked into the kitchen, unplugged the rice cooker, brought out a plate of vegetables in the pot, took a bowl and filled a big bowl of rice, and ate it in a few bites.
Li Qing washed the dishes and chopsticks, wiped the dishes with a dry rag, and put them in the cupboard.
Ouyang made a cup of tea and drank half a cup, and went to the bathroom to take a shower.
Li Qing lay on his side on the bed, and the soft light of the bedside lamp permeated the entire room.
Ouyang sat in the living room lit a cigarette, took a few puffs, walked into the room in his pajamas, and threw himself on the bed with open arms, Li Qing said softly
''Lock the door''
After Ouyang locked the door, he pounced on Li Qing, who reached out and turned off the bedside lamp...
The next day, Ouyang got up at seven o'clock, gently pushed open the door of the small room, and secretly took a look at Mengmeng, who was still sleeping soundly. Li Qing also woke up, Ouyang smiled knowingly, and said to Li Qing
"This girl, she is so sleepy, and until now, she still sleeps like a pig, haha"
"She sleeps well, don't call her, she can sleep until the afternoon"
Ouyang boiled water in a kettle, made a cup of tea and drank a few sips. I went downstairs and bought it and came back early, turned on the TV, Li was awake and still in bed, and Meng Meng was still asleep.
Ouyang shouted in the living room
"Mengmeng, get up, I bought your favorite fried dim sum, and I also bought lobster"
Meng Meng heard Ouyang's voice and opened her eyes
"Dad, what time did you come back last night? I waited and waited and fell asleep. ”
Li Qing said with a wicked smile
"How do I hear you, you're snoring when you?"
"Where? I've been waiting. ”
Ouyang walked into the small room and came to Mengmeng's side, Mengmeng sat at the head of the bed, leaning up,
Straighten your arms and pout,
"Dad, hug~"
Ouyang walked into the bed and bent over, Mengmeng put her arms around Ouyang's neck, and kissed Ouyang's cheek with her small mouth.
Ouyang stood up, turned around and walked into the master bedroom again, and said with a smile
"Lazy worms, get up quickly, I'll eat breakfast."
Ouyang boiled the kettle of boiling water again, and he ate breakfast first, ate early, and cleaned up the lobster by the pool.
After a while, Li Qing and Mengmeng also got up one after another.
After washing your face and combing your hair, sit on the sofa and eat breakfast.
Ouyang looked at Li Qing and Mengmeng and said mysteriously
"After lunch, let's go back to our hometown and take you on another road today, hehe."
Ouyang said excitedly as he quickly washed and cut the vegetables.
Ouyang wiped the water off his hands, squeezed on the sofa with Li Qingmeng, chatting while watching TV.
It's almost ten and a half, Ouyang uses a rice cooker to wash rice and cook rice.
After lunch, Ouyang drove Li Qing and Mengmeng to prepare to go back to their hometown to have a look.
Deliberately detoured, changed to another mountain road, starting from the provincial capital, usually going straight to the south, today Ouyang went west to detour, out of the community in the nearby gas station to refuel, forty minutes later, there was one hillside after another on both sides of the road, and the air became more and more fresh.
Li Qing asked
"Ouyang, you take us from this old mountainous area, this is a big mountainous area at the junction of three provinces."
"Take you to see the mountains by the way, how good the environment is here, there are scenery everywhere,"
"There is still a family living in this halfway up the mountain, aren't you afraid of the night? There must be wolves and wild boars in such a big mountain."
"Naturally, they have lived here for generations, and they have their own tricks"
"How comfortable it is to stay in this home"
"Huh? I see people here, they come and go on motorcycles,"
"This mountain road is crooked, motorcycles are the most convenient means of transportation, it is more powerful than electric cars to climb mountains, more convenient and fuel-efficient than cars"
"It's not convenient to refuel in this mountain" while speaking, and look again,
The left and right in front are mountains and mountains, mountains and mountains, cars pass through one tunnel after another, and there are fewer and fewer cars on the road, and the mountains are crossing
The higher you come, the closer you get, and as far as the eye can see, you are surrounded by lofty mountains and lush trees.
Li Qing felt that his ears were a little breathless.
Meng Meng shouted in surprise
"Mom and Dad, what do I feel like in my ears?"
"The altitude here is a bit high, estimated to be a thousand meters"
The car climbed up the winding mountain road, opposite a high mountain, and looking down through the car window, it turned out that the car was halfway up the mountain, with more and more curves.
At this time, the sky slowly darkened, and a mist could be faintly seen on the top of the mountain.
Ouyang stopped on the side of the road in a section that was slightly wider, took a rest, and the three of them got out of the car to breathe, Ouyang pointed to the mountain road opposite,
''We were just over there''
''So high!'' ‘’
Li Qing sighed.
''Meng, we're starting to descend now.'' ‘’
Ouyang Xiao looked at Mengmeng and said, the three of them got into the car again and closed the door.
It was completely dark, there were cliffs on the left, cliffs on the right, and there were no street lights on the narrow mountain road, completely relying on the lights of the cars, and from time to time there were cars coming from the opposite side, and when the car was wrong, the wheels
Almost to the edge of the cliff, if you are not careful, you will fall off the cliff.
Li Qing's heart was clenched, and he almost mentioned his throat! One bend after another, each bend seemed to pass through the ghost gate, and I was scared into a cold sweat.
Meng Meng ate some snacks, probably tired, and lay down in the back seat, and after a while, there was a slight noise.
Li Qing's palms were full of sweat, and he looked at the surrounding black poked peaks, towering into the clouds.
Ouyang was also silent, holding the steering wheel intently and stepping on the brakes...
Li Qing felt a little uncomfortable in his chest, and asked Ouyang in a low voice
"How long will it take to get down the mountain? I feel like I'm always spinning in the mountains, and I can't get out of the mountains."
Ouyang replied softly
"It's coming"
Ouyang's voice was calm.
After about 20 minutes, houses and lights appeared in front of me, and we finally arrived at the side of the mountain.
Li Qing couldn't wait to shout'
'Stop! ‘’
As soon as the car stopped, Li Qing pushed the car door, wow'~~' opened his mouth and vomited! After rinsing his mouth, he leaned weakly on the chair.
The car continued to drive slowly forward, and came to a small town, where there were tent night food stalls, wontons, noodles, etc. on the side of the road.
Ouyang asked the boss to make three bowls of wontons, and the three of them sat down to breathe, and they quickly finished eating with snoring.
After Li Qing finished eating the wontons, he suddenly felt like he had been beaten with chicken blood and came back to life again.
Ouyang smiled and said, '
'Let's go home''
''Hey~Yo, I was scared half to death just now,''
Actually, I was scared just now, but I can't show it, I have to hold on.'' Hahaha''
"You're too bold! Joke. ”
''Don't feel anything?'' ‘’
''You sleep like a pig,'' hahaha'
When I got home, it was already nine o'clock, and Jiang Cui was lying on the bed watching TV in a daze.
Ouyang Lei had also fallen asleep in the backyard cabin, and Li Qing carried his luggage to his room in the east room and pushed it away
At the door, a musty smell reached the nostrils, a refrigerator was placed at the entrance, and there were cutlery, two bottles of oil, and two bottles of kimchi on the writing desk.
The whole room is like a warehouse.
The bed was rolled up and placed on a small bed, with wheels, a snakeskin bag of rice, and two long benches
There was also a cat all in bed.
There was a thick layer of ash on the furniture, and Jiang Cui's clothes were stuffed in each cabinet.
Li Qing didn't know where to put the luggage in his hand.
Ouyang came in, Li Qing frowned and said
''Oh my god, where do you sleep?'' I can't get down my feet.''
Ouyang went to the kitchen to bring water, wiped it with a rag, and moved the things on the bed to the backyard, the bed was made, and the window was opened
opened, the doors and windows were closed for a long time, a pungent musty smell choked, and Li Qing couldn't help coughing.
Li Qing went to the hall to pour boiling water to drink, and there was a thick layer of ash on the dining table, and the three of them spent the night in silence.
After lunch the next day, I passed by the street to see the old house where Song Nanzhi lived, and Song Nanzhi had to have dinner for the three of them.
Song Nanzhi and Li Qing said
"The fourth uncle and the fourth aunt are also in H City now, I don't know how far away it is from you?"
"Oh, why did the fourth uncle and fourth aunt go to H City again?"
"In S City, I lost money in demolition and relocation contracting, owed a lot of money, and then went to work in H City"
"Oh"
After dinner, the three of them returned to the provincial capital.
