It wasn't until October 6 that all the corn of Li Jun's family was received at home, and all the skin was peeled and hung on the roof with a rope.

On the morning of October 7, Li Jun rode to find Yang Xinli after breakfast, and the two of them decided to go to Gao Qi's house for a turn, and on the way to Gao Qi Village, the corn on both sides was basically harvested, and the empty fields could not be seen at a glance. The morning wind was already slightly cool, and the two of them were very comfortable riding on the country road.

Twenty minutes later, I arrived at Gao Qi's house, the gate was open, and the southernmost part of the yard was a large pile of corn husks, there was no corn in the yard, and they should have been hung on the roof, seeing the two of them walk into the yard, Gao Qi opened the door and walked out, "You two really know how to choose the time, you just finished the corn at home yesterday, you two are here today, and you are about to break me up!" I'm looking forward to you being able to share some of my burden! As he spoke, his face was full of misery.

"Alas, don't say it, brothers, each other! Our family just finished it yesterday, so I'm not here to support you today, how can I say that the brothers also have a heart! Li Jun's face was full of sympathy.

"Xinli and Xiaojun are here?" Gauci's father came out of the house and greeted them both.

"Hello uncle!" The two of them also hurriedly replied and said hello, "I thought I could come over to help you, but I saw that you were all cleaned up, and you couldn't work in the field if it rained for a day." Li Jun continued to talk about their intentions.

"You are all studying and haven't worked much, and I thank you very much for this, but I know that it is hard to work at home for a few days, so I should cherish the opportunity to study!" When parents will never forget to remind their children to study hard, "You are all tired these days, I will get you a few side dishes at noon to treat you." Gauci's father laughed as he spoke.

"No need, let's just come over and have a fun time, uncle has been working even harder these days, we can do this bit of work if we want to, and if we don't want to do it, we'll be lazy, but you can't." Li Jun replied with a wicked smile.

Gao Qi said on the side: "Drink a few drinks, let's eat at my house at noon, let's have a good chat, and I will go back to school with you in the afternoon." ”

"That's it, eat at home at noon, I'll go to the field now to level the ground, and I'll come back early to get you food, you brothers can talk for a while." As he spoke, he picked up a shovel and rode his bicycle out of the yard.

The three of them returned to Gao Qi's room and talked about the first things together, not long after graduation, and now they only remember the interesting people and things of the past; Then Gao Qi turned to the matter of the high school brothers' swearing, the three of them have been in the high school for a month, and they have not seen the senior bullying the junior class, and they are not the kind of temper that can tolerate the bullying of others, the more they talk, the more angry they become, and they want to unite more people who can be united to save the weak in the county high school.

"Don't think about fighting!" Just as they were talking about the excitement, Gao Qi's father walked into the house, "I just heard that you said that you want to worship the son, this is to do it, thinking about pulling the mountain, but you can't think that there are too many people to cause trouble for the old people!" ”

The three of them hurriedly said: "No, we just don't want to be bullied, how can we cause trouble!" ”

"Dad, you also know Li Jun's character, and Xinli, we haven't caused you any trouble in the three years of junior high school!" Gao Qi's father has always talked about Li Jun Gao Qi, "I always say that Li Jun has a calm personality, let Gao Qi learn a little, don't always be frizzy." ”

"Okay, don't always be able to prevaricate me, anyway, you have to be a little measured in your work, it's not small now, you're all adults soon, you have to do more things than your brain, I'll get you a few dishes, let's eat dumplings at noon." After saying that, he walked out of the house and went to the westroom to prepare food.

Li Jun looked at the wall clock on the wall at eleven o'clock, and still wanted to go home to clean up his things, but Gao Qi let them eat at home before leaving, Li Jun and Yang Xinli had to continue to stay here, and after a while, Gao Qi's father brought a plate of fried peanuts, a plate of grilled cakes, and a cucumber and sugar mixed with tomatoes, put the dishes on the table and said: "It's hot in summer, so I won't give you stir-fried vegetables, you make do with it, and don't drink too much when you go back to school in the afternoon." ”

Yang Xinli hurriedly said: "Uncle, this is very good, we won't drink, don't go to school in the afternoon and let the teacher find out." ”

"Let's have a bottle of beer each, and the sweat of the bike will be gone when we ride on the road." Gao Qi still wants his brothers to drink a little.

The promised one person and one bottle of beer finally became one or two bottles, which was still Li Jun resolutely stopped Gao Qi, or he would have to go to drink again, "If you don't go home next Sunday, let's drink it again, forget it today, you are not afraid that your homeroom teacher will have to miss me." Li Jun's face was filled with fear.

"Okay, that's all for today, let's eat, and the brothers can drink him freely when they bow down next week." Gauge reluctantly put down the bottle he was holding.

"Come and serve noodles and try your uncle's handiwork." At this time, Gauci's father's voice came in from outside.

Li Jun hurriedly got up and walked out of the house, came to the west room, and looked at the steaming white mist in the room, Gao Qi's father was standing in front of the brick pot table, with an iron dumpling bed on top of the big iron pot, and a few bowls of freshly served dumpling noodles were placed on a corner of the pot table. At this moment, he took out a piece of noodles from a basin and put it on the funnel of the baking bed, and then pressed it hard to watch the slender noodles fall into the pot.

"Xiao Jun, you serve the bowl by yourself, there is shredded meat marinade over there, and you can serve it yourself according to the taste you eat." As he spoke, he pointed to a white iron basin on the table next to him.

"Okay uncle, you are busy with yours, I like to eat the baked noodles you made the most, the noodles are chewy and smooth." Li Jun didn't forget to compliment him.

Gao Qi's father laughed: "Your mouth is so sweet, do you often coax girls at school?" However, the noodles are really delicious, mainly because the squeezing of this baking bed makes the noodles more powerful. ”

"Dad, you are really sharp-eyed, you don't know that Li Jun has several girlfriends, you still praise him for being honest every day, I am the most honest one." Gauge looked at his father unconvinced.

"Go, go, that's all for you!" His parents always only praise other people's children, and they don't like their own family, and Gao Qi ignored his father and walked out of the Westinghouse with a bowl of noodles.

After eating at Gao Qi's house, it was just half past twelve o'clock, and the brothers made an appointment at half past three Gao Qi went to Li Jun's house at half past three, and the three of them returned to school together, Li Jun and Yang Xinli rode bicycles back to their homes with a little alcohol.

His mother was still waiting for Li Jun to come back for dinner at home, and when she entered the house, she smelled the smell of alcohol on him and shouted: "What's the matter, I'm going back to school in the afternoon and still drinking, and I'm waiting for you if I don't go home for dinner or say anything!"

Li Jun said curtly: "I went to Gao Qi's house, Uncle Gao had to eat somewhere, I wanted to leave, Gao Qi stopped me and didn't let me go, but I stopped Gao Qi and drank a bottle of beer." After speaking, she coquettishly hugged her mother's arm and shook it.

"Hmph, come less, and you stop Gao Qi, it's good if you don't pull Gao Qi to drink! Do you still eat the dumplings specially made for you at noon? As he spoke, he lifted the lid of the pot and went to serve the rice.

"Eat, the meatballs made by my mother are the best!" Although Li Jun's stomach is still very full, he can't refute his mother's face, "Have my father and brother eaten?" ”

"Don't play tricks on me here!" The mother put a bowl of meatballs in front of Li Jun, and went to serve herself, and said while serving the rice: "They have eaten, your father went to your house to sleep, I don't know where your brother went to play, he knows how to play all day long."

Li Jun found that there was basically only soup left in the pot, there were not a few meatballs, and her mother basically put some soup in her bowl, so she wanted to pick up some meatballs in her bowl and give it to her mother, but her mother avoided it, and said while drinking the soup: "You eat more, when you go to school, you will have clear soup and fresh water all day long, and my mother doesn't like to eat meat, just drink some soup."

Li Jun's heart was moved again, what is a mother? It is the one who suffers first and enjoys last; That is, whether you are poor or rich, when you need comfort, she will stroke your head and say, "Don't be afraid, the child is still there!" ”

Li Jun devoured a bowl of meatball soup, and his head was covered with sweat. His mother brought a towel and wiped the sweat from his forehead, and said angrily, "Eat slowly, and no one will rob you."

"Mom, it's so delicious, I can't stop." Perhaps only such an expression can make the mother feel satisfied and make the mother more gratified.

The mother stroked Li Jun's head and said, "Our Xiaojun has grown up, and he will coax his mother to be happy." The corners of his eyes were a little moist as he spoke, "You go to sleep for a while, Xiao Qi came to you to go to school together?" The mother digressed the subject.

"I'll clean up my things first, he came to me at half past three, Mom, I'll help you clean up after you finish eating first." Li Jun also feels that he rarely helps his mother.

A happy smile appeared on the mother's face, "With your heart, my mother is very happy, you don't have to worry about it, just pack up your own things, don't leave anything behind, especially the textbooks you brought back, just see you take them back, I haven't seen you a few times." ”

Enjoying the nagging sound of his mother's happiness, Li Jun put all the things he wanted to bring back to school into his bag, leaned on the bed and watched the TV, waiting for Gao Qi to come over.

After the mother finished cleaning up the pots and bowls, she took out 100 yuan and handed it to Li Jun, "Here, this week's living expenses, don't be too frugal on meals, but don't spend anything else." ”

After Li Jun took the money, he thought about what Gao Qi said about the swearing, but he didn't dare to say it directly, so he lied to his mother and said: "Mom, I won't be back next week, and a classmate is going to have a birthday for us to spend with him!"

"Birthday, what's your birthday?" Then he stared at Li Jun's eyes and asked, "Male classmate or female classmate?" Xiaojun hopes that you can study hard at this stage and stop thinking about falling in love! ”

"Mom! What is falling in love again, you think too much! Li Jun directly played a scoundrel.

The mother took out another 100 yuan and gave it to Li Jun, thought about it and took out another 20 yuan and said, "Look at what suitable gifts you can buy for your classmates, don't make people feel stingy!"

"Thank you, Mom, my mom is the most reasonable mom!" Li Jun took the money and put on a high hat for his mother, and his mother no longer paid attention to him and went to work on her own.

At 3:20, Yang Xinli arrived first, and then Gao Qi also arrived, and a few people went to the school with a smile.

On the way, Gao Qi probably told the two of them about the people who bowed this time, although Li Jun and their class have few boys, they have more connections with all parties, in addition to Li Jun, there are two people, Qin Jie and Su Huili.

"Didn't you contact Gao Yujun?" Li Jun thought that Boss Gao was a great god, so he asked Gao Qi.

"I told him about it, but you also know that he has been through too much, so he doesn't take it lightly, but he says that he will do his best if there is anything he needs to do!" It seems that Gao Qi really did it with his heart.

Qin Jie and Su Huili should also know about preparing to bow this time, and after returning to school, Li Jun felt that when he met them, the two of them were much closer than before, but neither of them clearly explained this. However, Gao Yujun talked about this incident when he was alone with Li Jun once, and he said to Li Jun with a little worry: "Li Jun, the relationship between our brothers and us is quite good in our class, so I also want to remind you that this week you and a group of people are going to worship as brothers of the opposite sex, and Xiao Qizi also looked for me, but I didn't promise him, I think he also told you?"

Li Jun nodded and replied to Gao Yujun, and listened to him continue: "Actually, true brothers are not limited to one form, after you swear, you may have the name of a brother on the surface to restrain each other, but only you know what your heart is."

Gao Yujun paused for a moment and continued: "You worship so many people, almost the elite of the first year of high school is to give yourself courage, but this will also attract the attention of the senior forces, they will definitely keep an eye on your every move, yesterday Wang Yongjun also asked me about the background of you and Xiao Qizi, of course I will defend you, but what will happen to the others is not easy to say, there will be a battle between you sooner or later, I guess you will not quit now, because you will definitely say that this is not righteous, Therefore, once the war starts, you must strike hard, and you must make a name for yourself, otherwise you will be sunk by others, and we will never be able to raise our heads at level 94! Gao Yujun took a wistful puff of cigarette and looked at the sky in the distance, where there was an unknown fate.

Li Jun silently remembered Gao Yujun's words, and was very grateful to this big brother for his enthusiasm and reminder in his heart, "Thank you Boss Gao for your advice, I will have my personal principles, if people don't offend me, I won't offend anyone, if people bully me, don't blame me for being ruthless!" ”

After class on Saturday afternoon, Gao Qi came to Li Jun's classroom, and when the students were almost gone, he left the school with Li Jun, Su Huili, and Qin Jie and headed towards Zhennan Country.

Zhen Nanguo is from Class 94 3, and his family lives in a village next to the county seat in the north of the county seat, saying that the village is basically equivalent to the county seat, and the family has no arable land, and this time he went to a house that their family had just built. On the way, Gao Qi told the three of them about the general situation.

In less than a quarter of an hour, several people rode to Zhen Nanguo's house, the gate was hidden, and the noise and laughter inside could be heard from outside.

They pushed open the door and saw more than a dozen people standing in the courtyard, tall, short, fat and thin, some knew and some didn't, Li Jun glanced at it, except for Yang Xinli and Zhang Weitao, everyone else basically didn't know.

Seeing them come in, a man with a medium to thin face, a white face, and slightly yellow hair said, "Just wait for a few of you, now that everyone is together, let's go into the house!" Li Jun vaguely remembered that this person seemed to be from the same village as Su Huili, and should be in the same class as Gao Qi, and his name was "Cheng Baozhu".

"Brother Zhu, don't you know that we have a long-winded head teacher? And there are also two class committees, Qin Jie and Li Jun, who have to pack up the class before they can leave. "Sure enough, it's Cheng Baozhu, but as class committee members Li Jun and Qin Jie, they really can't do it, and now they know how smart Gao Yujun is.

When I entered the house, it was still empty, and it seemed that it had just been built and had no intention of moving in, except for a bed in the easternmost room. Zhen Nanguo said that he came to stay at night and look at the house, but in fact, there was nothing in the house, and there was nothing to see.

And now in the middle of the main room, there is a small ground table in the middle of the room, and there is a bowl on the table that should be used by Zhen Nanguo's mother to insert incense during the New Year, and the bowl is full of a bowl of grass ash or incense ash. Now there are three unlit incense sticks neatly inserted in the middle of the bowl, and there are a dozen bowls for eating and a few bottles of Shijiazhuang Daqu wine on one side of the table, and next to the wine are some bags of cold dishes: peanuts, edamame, shredded tofu, and many local specialties such as grilled cakes and meat cakes.

Cheng Baozhu and Zhen Nanguo picked up the bowl on the table and slipped it in the open space in front of the table, and then Zhen Nanguo went to the lid on the wine bottle, but Cheng Baozhu stood in front of the table and said to everyone: "Let me introduce myself first, my name is Cheng Baozhu, everyone knows me and doesn't, but after today, we will all know each other and know each other.

"We are all willing to listen to the arrangement of the eldest brother." The others responded to Cheng Baozhu seriously with coaxing.

Cheng Baozhu waved his hand and then listened to him: "Now we are lined up from east to west in order of age, each of us recognizes their own wine bowl, and after pouring the wine, we will swear to the sky first, let God witness our brotherly feelings!" After speaking, he looked at everyone with passionate eyes, and the enthusiasm of others was also stimulated, and the young and ignorant teenagers wanted to be praised and appreciated!

After arranging in order, Li Jun found that Qin Jie was the youngest, followed by Gao Qi, and he was actually the third from the bottom.

Zhen Nanguo opened three bottles of wine and poured them next to the bowl, everyone had almost half a bowl of wine in their bowls, and the room was instantly filled with the smell of wine. Cheng Guigui lit the three long incense sticks on the table, and the smoke rose in a curling manner, spreading throughout the room, mixed with the smell of wine to change into different shapes, and perhaps the fate of these young people began to change at this moment.

Cheng Baozhu walked back to his position and said: "Let's respect the sky first, then respect the earth, and then the brothers work together, let's read it with me!"

"Today, there is Cheng Baozhu in Betou Village

Today, there is Betou Village Su Huili

Today, there is Yang Xinli in Zhaozhuang Village

Today, there is Yuan Yingjie of Yuanzhuang Village

Today, there is Jiazhuang Village Zhen Nanguo

Today, there is Bai Baoying in Baizhuang Village

Now there is Qin Jie in Chengguan Town

Willing to follow the example of the ancients and become brothers of the opposite sex, from now on we will be blessed and enjoy the same hardships, not to be born in the same year, the same month and the same day, but to die in the same year, the same month and the same day! Today, my brother first respects the sky, and then respects the earth, may heaven and earth see the feelings of our brothers! ”

The faces of a dozen young people were full of perseverance and excitement, and the loud voices of young people broke through the clouds and soared into the sky!
