Liang Liang heard that Mao Mao was back, so he hurriedly went to call the three saints, and the two ran to the hillside out of breath, and the three goats also chased after them; When he saw Mao Mao, his face smiled, Mao Mao sat there and watched them smile, Liang Liang rushed up and hugged Mao Mao's neck, and almost pressed Mao Mao down, the three saints sat next to Mao Mao, tilted their heads and punched Mao Mao, and the three sheep stood neatly behind the three saints side by side.

"It's finally back." The three saints said, "Why did you go for so long? ”

Mao Mao touched the pebbles beside him and put them in the ditch, turned his head to look at the three saints, then looked at Liangliang and said, "And bring three 'guards'?" ”。

"Stuck to these sheep, walking there and following that, yes, yes or no shake can be shaken off."

"Say something quietly, and they are all watched by a group." Liang Liang took over the conversation and complained: "I'm embarrassed to say it." ”

"Do you want me?" Mao Mao asked.

"I don't want to, I dream at night that we're still playing together." Liang Liang said confidently.

"Hahaha-I think, I really want you to come back soon." Sansheng said: "A lot of things have happened at school these days, and I often think of you, if only you were there." ”

"Brother Maomao, did you go out and see the train?" Liang Liang squeezed tightly around Maomao, and asked, "Is the train running fast?" ”

"See, the train is running too fast, one by one is very long, and it will be less than half the time you have been here, and it will run away."

"How many horses are pulling hard?"

"There are no horses, it is the machine that is running, and there are all iron wheels underneath, and I saw that there were still people sitting in the locomotive, probably the people who drove the train."

"I'd like to see it too." Liang Liang propped his wrists and elbows on his knees and held his face, looking at the reservoir at the bottom of the ditch.

Seeing that they had no intention of leaving immediately, the three sheep went separately to nibble on the grass roots and eat them.

"Liang Liang said something serious, all nonsense." The three saints glanced at Liangliang and said, his face tilted to the side again.

"Ah-you mean let me ask Brother Mao Mao about earning money, giving it to the top shoulders, and buying an erhu?" Liang Liang turned his head and looked at the three saints suspiciously.

"You ......" Sansheng frowned and wanted to stop talking, but he still couldn't help but glance at Mao Mao, and said to Liangliang: "Liangliang, you are really naïve." ”

"......" Liangliang hurriedly covered his mouth and said that he had leaked his mouth again.

"I heard what my mother said, Sansheng bought an erhu, this time I went out, my second uncle gave me sixty yuan."

"Ahh The Three Saints and Liang Liang shouted in unison in surprise: "You have made a fortune-"

"I told my mother, when the time comes, let's see how much the three saints are missing, and let me make up for it." Mao Mao said very calmly, and then, with a smile, he looked at the three saints, and then at Liangliang.

"Great, we have all walked around the fields here, and we only sold them for seven yuan after picking up six bags of bad dried sweet potatoes." The three saints looked at Mao Mao happily, rubbed their hands against each other, and said, "The sedge pimple was sold for thirteen yuan." ”

"We were still picking up on the sill, and we were sued by Gao Gaoniang for shaving sedges, and we were all beaten." Liang Liang pouted and looked very aggrieved, and then said with a weird smile: "Actually, my father slapped my ass gently, I laughed, and my father stared at me and didn't let me laugh." ”

"At that time, it was for Gao Gaoniang to see, fake fighting."

"When will Gao Gao come back?" Mao Mao suddenly remembered and asked, "Ru Ru is alone at school?" ”

"Let's go—you'll be back at noon."

The three of them held hands, Mao Mao was in the middle, jumping brightly. As soon as the goats saw that they were leaving, two of them followed them directly, and the other one was still gluttonous, and in a short time they hurried after them, and they walked with the three sheep on the way back to the village.

On Saturday night, when they all arrived except for Gao Gao, the three saints took down the key to Gao Gao's house from the wall, and said to his mother: "Don't wait, we will all go to Gao Gao's house to sleep tonight." ”

"Go ahead, don't go crazy until midnight, go to bed early."

"Got it—"

Maomao, Ruru, Sansheng, and Gao Gao all arrived, and Niuniu also followed, and was taken away by Maomao, Niuniu stared with impatience.

They sat on the beds, draped in quilts, in a circle, and the kerosene lamps of the tall houses were lit, the kind with glass covers, which could twist and adjust the size of the flame.

"These three saints are destined to herd sheep in the future, Liang Liangyi said that he was helping his father with farm work......" Ru Ru looked at them very seriously and said.

"The three saints are shepherds, and I am a cowherd herd—" Liang Liang hurriedly corrected Ru Ru's words.

"Gao Gao will definitely receive a good education after being in the city, and there is no need to mention the future."

"I heard my mother secretly say to me: Gurgle, cluck, his father is an official." The three saints also hurriedly interjected.

"Whether you are an official or not, you will have to rely on your own efforts in the future." Ru Ru continued in an orderly manner.

"I won't give up going to school, now I've always been in the top three or four in my class, I know I can't help but play a little bit, but my general direction will not change, I will go to junior high school next year, I will not give up, I will never give up."

Mao Mao and the three saints listened carefully to what Ru Ru was saying, and they didn't say a word.

"We are poor here, we have lived in poor mountain villages for generations, what do we eat? What are you wearing? A family of several people, going out to run errands and wearing a new pair of pants, I don't need to say. If someone in the family is sick, they can't afford to treat it. ”

"Needless to say, the three saints and Liangliang are stupid." Mao Mao looked at Ru Ru and said unreasonably: "If you can learn, you still remember it, why don't you study?" Not going to school? It is better to go to school than to sweat, and you don't have to sweat in the wind and sun; Not to mention the need to endure the cold without clothing. ”

Mao Mao sighed deeply, lowered his head, and then raised his head to look directly at Ru Ru, he knew that Ru Ru's words were aimed at himself, and they were also sincere and sincere, it seemed that Ru Ru was looking forward to Mao Mao's return to school every day.

"Brother Mao Mao, to tell you something from my heart, I want you to go back to school, it's not just my wish. In the past, you, me and Gao Gao were the shoulders of our Longwan Primary School in the commune-wide examination competition, and they won the first place. Only since you left, our school score can only be ranked third. Ru Ru looked at Mao Mao, lowered his head without sadness, and continued:

"Principal Lu was also transferred, and Principal Lu didn't want to leave at that time, and it can be seen that there must be other reasons for this. He went to school for you, and he heard that Mr. Gao said that he was criticized by his superiors, and he was forced to come down, and then he planned to transfer your school status to the commune junior high school, but I don't know why, and in the end it didn't work. ”

Sansheng and Liangliang had already fallen asleep on the bed.
