Chapter 20: Airplanes
When Shi Yiguang followed Yan Yan back home, Shi's mother was cooking lunch in the kitchen, and white smoke was rising from the chimney on the low house. The chickens in the yard were clucking. In the midday sun, a white cloth was pulled on top of the veil to block the glare. Light veils fluttered in the courtyard.
"Aunt Shi, I'm sending Sister Xi Shi back!" Yan Yan stood at the door of the Shi family's courtyard and shouted at the smoking low stove room.
Hearing the voice, Shi's mother walked out of the stove room, still wearing a headscarf, lifted the veil and looked at Yan Yan at the gate of the courtyard, her eyes fell on Shi Yiguang, and said with a questioning dissatisfaction: "Guang'er, where have you been?" Your dad came back to see you, and he was so scared that he went out to look for you again! ”
As he spoke, Shi Yiguang glanced at him, his eyes fell on Yan Yan again, and he said with a smile: "Yan Yan, I'm bothering you again!" Come in quickly, it's time for lunch, so let's eat it together at our house. ”
"No need Aunt Shi, I'm just here to send Sister Xi Shi's house. She couldn't find her way. Yan Yan looked at the enthusiastic Shi Mu, rubbed her clothes with both hands, and said a little embarrassed.
"It doesn't matter, anyway, we'll be together when we come." Shi Mu looked at Yan Yan and said, then turned her head to look at Shi Yiguang: "Guang'er, go and wipe the table quickly." Yan Yan, you go and help your aunt find your Uncle Shi back, it's in the east of the village. ”
"Alas." Yan Yan nodded in response and ran towards the outside of the courtyard.
Looking at Yan Yan's figure walking away, Shi Yiguang turned his head and looked at his mother who was moving the table.
The melons and fruits planted on the yard shelf have yellow flowers on their heads, which are adorned on the shelf.
"Mother, do you know a person named Kongqiu?" Shi Yiguang stood in the courtyard, holding the courtyard frame with yellow flowers in one hand, and looked at Shi's mother who was setting the table.
"Kongqiu?" While setting the table, Shi Mu looked up at Shi Yiguang and asked, "Who?" ”
Shi Yiguang turned his head and flattened his mouth: "It's no one, when I didn't say it." So saying, he walked under the eaves and lifted his stool.
Her father didn't even know what year it was, and he still expected her mother to know who Confucius was.
Shi's mother looked at Shi Yiguang and said, "Guang'er, tomorrow you are going to the master's house, you Yanyan brother is going to school with the master, if you don't understand, you can ask him." ”
Shi Yiguang moved the stool and responded, "Got it, mother." ”
"Listen to the Master, and don't cause trouble." Shi's mother continued to be earnest.
"Yes......" Shi Yiguang responded casually with his voice dragged. But I still think about Confucius in my heart.
If only she could follow Confucius. Basically, you don't have to worry about the future.
At least you can learn a skill, and you can also figure out the interests and stakes between countries in this troubled world by traveling around. It seems that there is no need to worry too much about the matter of Shenjiang in the future.
Shi Yiguang thought of this, and sighed as he lifted the stool to the sky.
Why couldn't she have recognized it sooner?
Alas............
Shi's mother heard the lamentation, looked up at Shi Yiguang, and was about to speak, when her eyes fell on the two people approaching outside the courtyard: "Guang'er, your father is back." ”
Shi Yiguang turned his head and watched Yan Yan and Shi's father talking while walking into the courtyard.
Walking into the courtyard, he first turned his head and glanced at Shi Yiguang fiercely, and said sharply: "The next time you go out for so long and don't go home, I will break your legs." ”
Shi Yiguang put the stool on the table, looked up, and looked at Shi's father: "Didn't Yan Yan tell you that I was lost?" ”
"Are you embarrassed?" Father Shi turned his head and glanced at Shi Yiguang again: "Such a big person can still go astray, and his brain is pretending to be paste?" ”
Shi Yiguang looked at Father Shi, was scolded inexplicably, looked at Father Shi and turned his head and said, "The daughter you gave birth to is still so big that she can still get lost, do you still have a face?" ”
Shi's father, who was driving chickens into the cage in the yard, was stunned for a moment, and turned his head to look at Shi Yiguang: "What do you mean?" Is it not possible that you are lost or is it my fault? ”
"It's not your fault, is it still mine?" Shi Yiguang turned his head, glanced at Shi's father, and walked towards the stove room as he spoke: "What kind of father has what kind of daughter, when I make a mistake, you have to save your own problems." ”
Father Shi looked at Shi Yiguang's figure walking into the stove room, his brows furrowed, and he let go. Wrinkled again.
What does that mean? Or is it his fault?
Father Shi's brows furrowed even deeper: "What you said, how does it sound very reasonable." As he spoke, he turned his head to look at Yan Yan, who was helping to drive the chickens: "Yes, Yan Yan?" ”
While helping to drive the chickens, Yan Yan responded: "The master said that children are uneducated, and parents should be provincial." I think that's what Sister Shih Tzu said. ”
Father Shi stood up, listened to Yan Yan's words, and then nodded: "Since it was said by the master, there must be nothing wrong." ”
The people in the yard were driving the chickens, and Shi Yiguang and Shi's mother went in and out of the stove room, and the meals were set.
A table of four people sat down and began to eat.
Night in the mountains came early.
After dinner, the neighbors stood under the trees by the bridge, shaking the puff fans woven with millet poles, and beating the mosquitoes at their feet. Talking about the insects and weeds in the field today, or the growth of melons and fruits.
After Shi Yiguang finished eating, he also followed Shi's father and mother to the courtyard, listening to the chatter of the peasants. I want to know more about the situation in Spring and Autumn.
It's a pity that he has the intention to kill the thief and has no power to return to the sky.
I was too young to listen to two words, and sleepiness struck. Then he was held in his arms by the sitting Shi mother, and while listening to the neighbors chatting about the watering days, he lay on Shi Mu's shoulder and fell asleep deeply.
When Shi Yiguang opened his eyes again, it was already early in the morning of the next day. When the rooster crowed, she was pulled up from the quilt by her mother.
Shi Yiguang opened his eyes, squinted at the sky that was still dark outside, yawned, stretched out his hand and rubbed his eyes, turned his head and looked at Shi's mother holding the window in the gap between his eyes, closed his eyes, hissed a hoarse voice, and frowned: "Mother, what kind of plane are you doing." ”
"What flying chicken?" Shi's mother propped up the window, lit the light and walked to the bedside, and pulled Shi Yiguang up from the quilt: "Get up quickly, otherwise you will be late for school." ”
Shi Yiguang lay down on the bed, wrapped in a quilt, and was full of bed gas: "Why do you want to study so early, and you still have the lamp." ”
"When the day dawns and the lights don't take hold, it's time for the master to get out of school." Shi's mother looked at Shi Yiguang, who was lying on the bed and refused to get up, full of helplessness. Stretched out his hand and pulled again: "Hurry up, your father will come in later to beat Jiriko." ”
Shi Yiguang didn't speak, just wrapped in the quilt and fell asleep.
Shi's mother shook her head helplessly, then leaned down, leaned into Shi Yiguang's ear, and said softly: "Guang'er, hurry up, your father has prepared all the flying chickens for you." ”
Shi Yiguang lifted the quilt, stared at Shi Mu with half-squinted eyes, and said in a hoarse voice that had not yet opened his voice: "What is it?" ”
