Chapter 3: The Frightened Old Man
The sun in the sky is hot on the asphalt road, rising steaming, like an oven, the pedestrians on the roasting road are sweating, Weihai, near Dongshan High School, a young man wearing a white T-shirt and light blue jeans is walking on the side of the road, the young man looks clean, his face is angular, a little handsome, but his eyes look as if he has not woken up, half-opened, and he walks swaying.
The young man's name is "Du Ming", is a freshman at Dongshan University, Du Ming has studied very well since he was a child, and his parents are engaged in education, so Du Ming was admitted to Dongshan University with excellent results in the college entrance examination, although Du Ming's grades can go to a better school, but Du Ming still chose Dongshan University, which is the closest to home, because this is a very home-loving guy, even if a person goes to visit relatives at a relative's house, he will run back in less than three days, just because he is homesick, Du Ming has been very homesick since he was a child, but he left his parents for three days, You can't stay outside. Du Ming's parents naturally knew about Du Ming's problems, but they always thought that Du Ming hadn't grown up yet, and it would be good when he grew up.
Du Ming walked to school from his home this morning, and Dongshan University was only two kilometers away from Du Ming's house, so Du Ming walked to school every day. But because the weather was too hot, Du Ming planned to pass through the small alley, although he walked a little longer, but the alley was covered by buildings on both sides, and it was not as sunny as on the main road.
Seeing that he was about to go to school, Du Ming suddenly felt a flash of white light in front of him, and then a pain in his forehead, feeling as if he had been hit by something, but Du Ming opened his eyes and saw that he didn't see anything, touched his forehead, and was not injured, a little puzzled, 'Is it an illusion'?" Although he was puzzled, but seeing that there was nothing wrong, Du Ming continued to walk towards the school. I didn't know that when it was just noon, I felt as if I had a fever, my whole body was hot, and my head was dizzy. However, Du Ming didn't think that it was because of the white light in the morning, thinking that he had a cold.
"Hey! Xiao Ming, what's wrong with you, why is your face so red? Li Wei looked at his best friend and frowned and asked, it was okay when the two of them had breakfast together at noon, why did Xiao Ming's face turn red after returning to the classroom for a while, like a boiled crab, and he looked confused.
"It's okay, it seems to have a little fever, you help me take a leave, I'll go home and sleep!" Du Ming waved his hand, didn't bring anything, and stood up slowly, planning to go home and rest.
"Why don't I go back with you, can you do it yourself?" Li Wei frowned, looking at his friend's appearance, he couldn't help but be a little worried.
"It's okay, let's go, remember to help me ask for leave."
"Well, be careful, then."
Du Ming walked on the road, feeling that the scene in front of him was getting more and more blurred, but his heart was still sober, this feeling was very weird, Du Ming was a little worried, is this a fever? How is it different from the previous cold and fever, it can't be some other disease, I can't help but be a little worried.
Seeing that he had arrived home after the middle school in front of him, Du Ming subconsciously quickened his pace, wanting to return home quickly, but as soon as he arrived at the gate of the elementary school, he suddenly felt that his leg was hit, and he couldn't help but feel soft under his feet, and fell to the ground with a 'bump', and then felt that the sky was spinning and he fainted.
Old Wu Touer is a seller of roasted sweet potatoes, the small stall is not far from Dongshan University, relying on the students in the university, the business is okay, because the son and daughter-in-law are working in the field, and the granddaughter has to go to school here, so there are only the old man and the granddaughter Wu Xiaola here in Weihai.
After selling a wave of sweet potatoes at noon today, put the stove at home, and rode a tricycle to pick up his granddaughter from school, when he thought of his granddaughter Lao Wu Tou, he couldn't help but feel a burst of pride, although his granddaughter was only 15 years old, just in the second grade of junior high school, but she looked slim, you knew at a glance that she must be a big beauty when she grew up, and Wu Xiaola was not only beautiful, good at studying, but also very sensible and filial, Wu old man was very rare, so Wu old man would personally pick up his granddaughter from school every day at noon and evening, rain or shine, for fear that his granddaughter would have an accident.
Old man Wu came a little late today, and when he arrived at school to pick up his granddaughter Wu Xiaola, the two hurriedly walked back, after all, the child still had to go to class in the afternoon.
"Grandpa, are you hot? I'll give you an umbrella. Wu Xiaola sat at the back of the tricycle, looking at the sweat on the face of the grandfather riding in front of him, and hurriedly took out a small umbrella to shield his grandfather from the sun.
Old Wu Tou looked at his sensible and filial granddaughter, and felt as comfortable as drinking an iced soda, with a smile that could not be concealed on his face.
"Grandpa doesn't need it, you just cover it yourself, grandpa is used to it." A happy smile hung on his wrinkled face.
"It's okay grandpa, I don't need it, the teacher said that we young people need to bask in the sun so that we can be healthy." Wu Xiaola said in a sweet voice behind his grandfather, and as he spoke, he put the little umbrella on his grandfather's head.
"Hehe, what your teacher said is right, basking in the sun is good for the body, you see the young man in front of you, his body is too poor, and when the sun shines, he walks shaking." Old man Wu looked at the young man in front of him walking and swaying, and he couldn't stand on his feet, so he couldn't help but ride his bike to get out of his way for a distance, afraid of hitting him.
"Where?" As soon as she heard someone walking and shaking, Wu Xiaola couldn't help but be curious and wanted to take a look, but she forgot to give her grandfather an umbrella in her hand as a sunshine umbrella, and as soon as she stood up, the umbrella she was holding in her hand suddenly blocked her grandfather's view.
"Hey! Sit down, you're in the way of grandpa. As soon as he finished speaking, Old Man Wu felt that the tricycle had hit something, and he secretly screamed in his heart, 'It's broken'! Hurriedly stopped the car, looked at the young man lying on the ground with his eyes closed, and was dumbfounded. Old man Wu now has only one thought in his heart, 'I met the porcelain bumper,' his pedal tricycle, not to mention 70 yards, 7 yards is barely enough, how can he pretend to faint?
Old Wu squatted down tremblingly, touched Du Ming who was lying on the ground with his hand, and said cautiously: "Young man, wake up, don't scare me, or I'll give you a few hundred yuan?" What do you think? ”
At this time, the people around couldn't help but gather around to see the excitement when they saw something happening here, and some people who saw what happened couldn't help but laugh and said, "Damn!" This kid is so talented, this acting skills, absolutely professional, you look at the closed eyes, look at the suffocated red face, it is simply a model among porcelain touchers, so provoked to lie on the ground, but also dedicated enough, it is really admirable! ”
"Hmmm! You said that this buddy is too, with this acting skills, you go to be an actor, playing with porcelain here, it's really overkill! The people around him suddenly became gossipy.
