Eighty-three
When riding past a tailor shop, Shi Jiaojiao seemed to see Tang Jianyu, when she was about to stop to confirm, the two pedestrians walking next to each other in front of her suddenly separated, and another bicycle in the middle came in the opposite direction, Shi Jiaojiao avoided and rode to the vicinity of the pastry shop, out of the crowded section, "It's so far, even if you can't find it." Shi Jiaojiao didn't stop thinking about it, and rode towards the sixth family.
The sixth little brother had a "100 days" this week, and the day before he called Shi Jiaojiao and told him that she happened to go back to the village with her after she took the car to the town, so she didn't have to have her family come to pick her up. Shi Jiaojiao went upstairs directly as promised, and when she arrived at the door of Lao Liu's house, she found that she had not returned. This wait was two hours, until it was nearly five o'clock, when the grandmother of the sixth family came back from shopping for vegetables, and told her that the sixth child had gone back to the countryside with his father's small truck at two o'clock, Shi Jiaojiao thanked the grandmother and hurried home alone.
Soon after riding on the concrete road, the gray sky actually lit up, and the bright twilight shone on the half-built fish pond, and the water surface sparkled in the breeze, which was a warm scenery rarely seen in early spring. Shi Jiaojiao was attracted by the scenery, holding the dragon head in one hand and the pergola in the other, riding and watching slowly. "Huh?" Shi Jiaojiao was just about to stretch out her head to look, when a white sedan drove by coldly. She looked at the water again, and there was indeed a lonely child sitting on the trestle from the small pier to the water.
Shi Jiaojiao thought about it again and again, but still turned around, she parked the car on the side of the dock and shouted, "What are you looking at?" Then he tentatively approached the child. The other party didn't respond to her, and when Shi Jiaojiao walked in, she found that it was a little boy, who looked twelve or thirteen years old, wearing a black cotton jacket without a scarf, and a thin neck with a head that looked too big.
He sat at the end of the trestle with his feet hanging from the water, because the water was scarce in winter. He turned around, his small face was very big, and asked, "Who are you and what does it matter to you?" Shi Jiaojiao looked at the empty factory in the distance, suddenly became a little scared, and said, "I don't know either." ”
The little boy snorted coldly and turned his head, Shi Jiaojiao didn't know what to do, and stood stupidly for a long time and said, "There is no one here, it will be dark soon, don't you go home yet?" The little boy ignored her, shaking his legs and staring far, far away. Shi Jiaojiao felt that there was something hidden, and said: "You are too dangerous like this, it is very cold to fall into the water." The little boy still didn't bother to pay attention to her.
The short-lived red sun was about to sink in the west, and Shi Jiaojiao obviously felt that the night was coming soon, and the fear in her heart was aggravated, and then she retreated. But I turned back because I was worried that something would happen to this kid, and now that I've talked to him, if I leave now, there's really anything wrong with him after that, can I get out of it? No. Shi Jiaojiao clenched her fists, sat down next to the little boy, saw that he didn't react, and learned to shake his legs.
I don't know how long it took, but the little boy asked, "Who are you, are you insane?" Shi Jiaojiao took off her gloves, pinched off the frozen snot and replied: "You just treat me as a psychopath!" The little boy was speechless, and after a while he asked, "What do you want to do?" "I don't want to do anything." "And when are you going to leave?" "I'll leave when you go."
The little boy was speechless for a while, and after rolling his eyes countless times, he said angrily: "There is something wrong with you! What's the matter with you? Shi Jiaojiao smiled and said with a wry smile: "Actually, I regret it too." I'm going to die of cold now! "Then you go quickly, I still think you're annoying!" "I'll tell you honestly, I'm afraid you'll jump into the river, I've seen you all the way you look, if you die, I won't think about it for the rest of my life." Shi Jiaojiao looked at the little boy pitifully, and after the little boy listened to Shi Jiaojiao's words, his shocked expression was also obvious in the gradually dim sky.
"You're such a big fool." After a long time, the little boy said in disgust, but his expression was more lively than before. Shi Jiaojiao raised the corners of her mouth and said, "Who said it, I'm very smart." Even if I fail math, I can still get into the top 20 of my grade, think about it. Hearing this, the little boy turned his head and asked, "Are you also in the town middle school, what grade are you?" "Looks like you're a student at Town Middle School!" I'm a sophomore in high school. What grade are you? "The first year of junior high school."
"I'm trying to persuade you to go home now, can you agree? Because I can't stand the cold, and my family is going to be anxious. Shi Jiaojiao held her face and said to the little boy seriously, the little boy shook his head, "I don't want to go home, my house is colder than here!" "Then I'll take you back, don't resist. If you fall into the water, you have to freeze to death. Shi Jiaojiao was still holding her face and saying unreasonable things. The little boy was angry and said, "I will definitely resist, and I will not be disgraced." Shi Jiaojiao laughed, "Then I won't insult you, you go home obediently." ”
The little boy looked up at the sky and asked, "Is it true that you can sit as long as I want?" Shi Jiaojiao nodded and said, "You know I don't want to, but I will." The little boy laughed, "Actually, my mom is probably looking for me everywhere, maybe she has already called my dad." She must have a reason to call my dad......" Shi Jiaojiao raised her eyebrows, "Then you deliberately avoided them?" The little boy shook his head, stood up without saying anything, and Shi Jiaojiao also stood up.
Shi Jiaojiao stomped on her already numb feet, and the trestle made an empty sound, and she was startled: "Hurry up to the shore, I'm going to be scared to death." The little boy walked in front, Shi Jiaojiao followed, and the two came to the bicycle together. Shi Jiaojiao patted the cushion and said to the little boy, "Come, you show the way, I'll send you home." "No, you don't." The little boy got around the bike and headed straight down the road. Shi Jiaojiao pushed the bicycle and followed him.
The two walked for a long time, and the little boy turned back angrily and asked, "I'm ready to go home, what do you want?" Shi Jiaojiao replied: "I'm a dead eye, I must see you go home." Otherwise, you can't feel at ease. "......" "Come on, even if the young lady begs you, take me to visit your neighborhood."
Under the guidance of the little boy, Shi Jiaojiao rode back to the old Liujia community, and as soon as she turned into the alley, she said to the little boy in the back seat: "I have a good friend who also lives here." You said it was cold at home, and you thought you were a boat owner on the moat! The little boy sneered and did not reply.
The street lights in the community were all on, and when passing by the third building, a man and a woman were heard arguing, and the little boy suddenly jumped out of the car, and Shi Jiaojiao quickly stopped. By the time she returned to the third building, the boy had run into a hallway and was gone. Shi Jiaojiao seemed to hear the little boy say "thank you" to herself, she couldn't be sure. At this moment, there is only a faint conversation coming from the corridor, a high voice and a low voice. Shi Jiaojiao sighed, thought about it and laughed again, and then stepped on the bicycle and went home.
After arriving home, Shi Jiaojiao had not yet entered the door, when she heard the sound of two people talking in the house, Shi Jiaojiao confirmed, casually leaned the bicycle against the wall, and rushed into the kitchen. In the smoke, my mother fried vegetables and shouted: "She must have her own things delayed, don't worry about it." A man who was a head taller than his mother took a bowl of food and said, "It's too late...... Didn't you say she came back early today? ”
"Daddy!" Shi Jiaojiao screamed, the husband and wife were stunned, the girl couldn't think about it, and shouted again, "Dad! Dad Shi was so happy with the food that he didn't know whether to put it down or lift it up, and agreed with a "belch".
At the dinner table, Shi's mother told her that the sixth child called to explain why she didn't wait for her to come back together, and counted her daughter down, "You are really stupid, you should know if you can't wait for a while!" Shi Jiaojiao was afraid that she was worried that she didn't say anything about the little boy, so she just nodded. Then he took a bite of a potato and listened happily to his father's complaints: when he came back, he didn't see how disappointed she was; how to worry about her when she returns late; Because of how these are ridiculed by Mother Shi, more and more mother-in-law......
She looked at her parents sitting in front of her and remembered what the little boy had said, "I don't want to go home, my house is colder than here!" "Maybe I know why he said that, Shi Jiaojiao thought to herself.
