Yang Xiaole closed the door, and when the person was still in the middle of the curtain and the door, he directly entered the space.

I went outside, let the car out, and then gently pushed the car back.

Because there are people in the compound.

"Uncle Shen, what about pouring hot water?"

Yang Xiaole saw him and asked in a low voice.

It was Shen Congjun.

Shen Congjun looked up and laughed quietly: "Ang, it's my turn to water today, why did you come back so late?" ”

As he spoke, he took the kettle and poured water on the faucet.

The faucet will freeze in winter, and it is better for someone to use it during the day, but if it is not thawed at night, everyone will have no water in the morning.

There is also a chance that the water pipe will burst.

So the people in the compound take turns to get up and pour hot water until the water comes out normally and can go back.

In this case, even if it freezes in the morning, it will melt with a little watering.

Today it was the turn of the Shen family.

Yang Xiaole smiled and nodded: "Ang, I just came back from my uncle's house, and I slept at my uncle's house at night." ”

"Oh, that's it, it's cold, let's go back quickly!"

"Hey, okay, you're busy, I'll go back first!"

I said hello and walked home.

Yang Xiaole saw that Qu Ying's light had been turned off, gently pushed open the door, and walked in.

The old lady didn't wait for him tonight, she came back too late, and she fell asleep before she could wait.

But as soon as he came in, the other party asked in a daze.

"Isn't it Xiaole!"

"Well, mother, I just came back from my uncle, you can sleep!"

Then there was no sound over there.

When he returned to his room, he added a little coal to the bottom of the kang and got into the bed.

Or the kang is a little warmer.

Xizi couldn't find where to sleep at home, Yang Xiaole just came in, and he shrank directly to the side with cold stimulation.

This time, Yang Xiaole didn't go to get him.

Quietly lay down next to him and fell asleep.

……

In the early morning of the next day, Yang Xiaole was woken up by the voice of his wife Wang Qiuju in a daze: "If you don't come back in the middle of the night, you don't know how to say hello, and you don't know that your family is worried about you?" ”

When I opened my eyes, I saw that the old lady was sweeping the floor of the house with a broom.

While sweeping, he muttered.

"Ouch, I went to my uncle's house, and I slept there at night."

After Yang Xiaole finished speaking, he covered his head with the quilt and continued to sleep.

Anyway, it's not much today.

Wang Qiuju thought for a while, then went out of the house after sweeping the ground.

Seeing this, Yang Xiaole took his head out of the quilt and continued to sleep.

However, the habit of going to bed early and waking up early for such a long time will make it impossible to fall asleep when the time comes.

Seeing Kiko get up, he also climbed up.

When I came out to brush my teeth and wash my face, the other children in the compound had already gone out to play early.

"Xiaole, are you going fishing?"

Liu Jiefang came out with a group of people in the courtyard and asked with a smile.

Zhao Jianjun was also in the crowd.

Yang Xiaole glanced at it and shook his head: "No need, you guys go, I still have something to do today!" ”

Summer gave each other some bait, enough for them to use for a long time.

In the beginning, these people were not very good at fishing, but now they are quite skilled.

Every time it's a weekend, it's a time to go out.

Now that it's winter, and there are rivers that are not frozen, these people go fishing again.

But the harvest is not small.

During this time, the fish naturally has basically not been broken, and from time to time you can send some souvenirs over.

Basically, it's all fish in exchange.

It also made him feel that he had done nothing in vain.

There are people in the compound who don't fish or don't have school-age children, after all, they are still mainly on duty, and these people can also share a little, although the amount is not very much.

But you can also try it every once in a while.

Liu Jiefang didn't say anything when he saw this, said hello with a smile, and went fishing with someone.

In the past, Zhao Jianguo and Liu Yuanchao, two older junior high school students, took the lead.

Now that the two of them are working, Wang Xuewu, who is the same age, has moved out of the compound again, and Zhao Jianjun and Liu Jiefang have become the leaders of the compound.

Except, of course, he was.

He didn't care about Zhao Jianjun's past.

It's not so small that the belly is so small.

There is no shortage of these in Xizi's house, and there are two brothers who play with him, so naturally he didn't follow.

Wash up and go home.

Wheat and Xiaoli followed the eldest sister to eat breakfast in the house.

Millet porridge with steamed buns, plus some pickles.

At this point, it is already considered a hearty meal.

Yang Xiaole sat there and ate.

Sitting there, he casually asked the two of them, "Have you finished your homework?" ”

Both of them smiled and nodded: "It's been done a long time ago." The eldest sister has checked it out for us. ”

Yang Xiaole nodded when he saw this.

As for Kiko, who has just returned, there is no need to ask.

This guy can write a little except for the first two days, and the rest won't start at all until school starts soon.

Sometimes it's just a pen, a night, to create a miracle.

Yang Xiaole looked at the eldest sister who was eating, pondered for a moment and asked, "Sister, you will take the high school entrance examination next summer, or you will take the alto high school entrance examination!" ”

This school is a special school.

The Secondary Music School affiliated to the Central Conservatory of Music.

The school is a six-year system, divided into junior high school and high school, but this school does not have very high requirements for cultural classes and high requirements for skills.

Students from this school are admitted only after a rigorous selection process.

Most of them can enter the Central Conservatory of Music.

You must know that the Central Conservatory of Music, whether it is now or in the future, is a key university.

And this affiliated secondary music school is very special.

You say it's a technical secondary school, and it can be admitted to the university normally.

You can say it's a middle school, and students who graduate from junior high school can become music teachers in the school.

After graduating from high school, if you can't get into college, the art troupe is rushing to ask for it.

Therefore, he thought about it for a long time before he thought of such a school suitable for his eldest sister to go to, and he didn't have to change her wishes, which made her too disappointed.

Moreover, there is not much gap between universities now, and alto is also included in the first batch of key universities.

Therefore, it is not like later generations to be so persistent and envious of Qingda and Peking University.

The eldest sister was stunned for a moment when she heard this, and shook her head: "No, the cultural class is fine, but the music is too bad." Many of them were learned from a young age. ”

She thought about it too, but it was still too difficult for her.

Yang Xiaole said indifferently: "It's okay, there is still half a year, don't go to learn from Jiang Yan and her mother later, go to the Children's Palace and find a good teacher." See if there's any hope, your culture class is okay anyway. ”

The eldest sister is now the first in her grade, and she has steadily pressed Jiang Yan.

In the mock exams, basically all the doors are hovering at full scores.

And the skills of the eldest sister are not too bad.

That's the importance of being smart and spiritual, and there aren't many people of the same age who learn the violin.

Find a great teacher, half a year, not to say hopeless.

"Okay?"

The eldest sister hesitated.

Yang Xiaole said indifferently: "It's okay, you have to try!" Otherwise, it will be a waste if you have studied this for so long! ”

"This ......"

His words made the eldest sister hesitate for a while.

He thought for a moment and nodded slightly.

"Okay, I'll try, who are you looking for?"

"Go to the Children's Palace and ask, isn't there a violin room there, don't you know if you try it!"

Yang Xiaole said casually.

It's a little late, but it should still be in time, it's really not good, then he can only make the eldest sister sad.

lest you be admitted to university in the future, and you won't even have a college diploma, which is estimated to be even more uncomfortable at that time.

It's not as good as a secondary school student.

After speaking, he looked at the two little ones.

They are still young, don't worry about it for the time being, learn for a few years first, and their two teachers are not bad.

The eldest sister bowed her head lightly and didn't say anything more.

While eating, the eldest sister thought of something and said, "By the way, you remember to buy more firecrackers tomorrow." ”

"What's wrong?"

took a sip of porridge and asked casually.

"Big brother, their bicycle certificate is good, I don't have time these days, I will buy a car tomorrow, and I have to hang the big red flower and set off firecrackers! Yesterday you ate and ran away, forgetting to tell you. ”

Yang Xiaole smiled when he heard this: "Oh, I really got the ticket!" ”

For setting off firecrackers, with big red flowers, it is not surprising at all.

Buying a bicycle now is basically the same as buying a car in the 90s, when you bought a car and a house, you had to have a meal.

Then receive the gift.

Unlike later, when hundreds of thousands of cars were bought by most families.

Gradually, there was no such thing as a treat.

"That's right! The eldest brother and mother-in-law also paid fifty yuan. ”

The eldest sister nodded slightly.

Hearing this, Yang Xiaole frowned, but this is the matter of the eldest brother, thinking about it, he still didn't say anything in the end.

But these days, buying a car in any family is a big deal.

Your own used car doesn't count.

Then he agreed: "Okay, I know, I'll buy you a big cannon when the time comes." Cheer it up. ”

After eating, I didn't care about a few people in the family, and rode to this side of Qianmen Street.

It's time to send something to Mr. Luo's house.

But when he came to the place, he frowned when he saw that the door was locked and the contents had been cleaned up.

Tomorrow is the New Year.

Where did the people go.

An aunt in the compound saw him and asked, "Are you looking for Teacher Luo's daughter-in-law?" ”

Yang Xiaole came back to his senses and nodded: "Well, I'm looking for them, auntie, where did they go?" ”

"Escaped! Don't look for it. ”

"Ran away? What's going on? ”

"He had committed a crime, and they received a telegram the other day, and then they dragged their family and ran away overnight. What's not running away? ”

Hearing this, Yang Xiaole was stunned for a moment.

I pondered for a moment, then guessed.

At the beginning of last year, the family area of the Malan base was under construction, and it is very likely that they will go there.

These people are so annoying.

I didn't know what was going on, so I said that someone had committed an accident and ran away.

However, it is no wonder that people speculate that Lao Luo's matter is a highly confidential matter, and very few people know about it.

It's okay to go.

There, when encountering a big wave, you won't suffer too many grievances.

There must still be grievances.

It's better there than here after all.

"What's your relationship with them?"

The other party looked at him suspiciously, and questioned there.

Yang Xiaole rolled his eyes: "What does it matter to you about me and them?" If there is a problem, you go to the street office to report it! ”

After saying that, he turned his head and left.

"Hey, don't go."

But when he came out, Yang Xiaole had already left on a bicycle.

Walking on the way back, he sighed in his heart.

In those years, it is estimated that many of my friends will leave, or even go abroad.

Ay!

Sighed and didn't bother.

Su Ling went to his hometown, so he didn't go over, he had nothing to do, so he rode to the Broadcasting University to inquire about Qu Ying's situation.

It just so happens to be a major with her.

As for his eldest brother, he shouldn't be here, there are a lot of night schools in the city, and he is more likely to go to the night school of the police station system.

There is more suitable for him.

At this time, there was not much difference between the night university and the adult university in later generations.

Every once in a while, there will be an exam, and if you can't pass the exam, the next time, and theoretically speaking, you can finish the junior high school or high school exam in one year.

Get the certificate.

But it doesn't work.

Unless he's the kind of guy who was born to come back with knowledge.

Otherwise, such people are basically in school.

Of course, it is not excluded that there is a kind of person who has never gone to school, who was a soldier before liberation, and who studied in the army system.

If you learn it later, you will make rapid progress.

This kind of person is almost a rarity.

In the past, for the sake of the eldest sister, he came to consult, but today I still asked about the specific process, and the registration is not like the future generations that can sign up at any time, and it is similar to the school's winter and summer vacation registration.

It's good to report before school starts.

After learning the specific process, he rode away.

When I got home, I didn't have anything to do, just waiting for the Chinese New Year tomorrow.

But there is another thing, which is naturally to write couplets.

Tomorrow is the New Year.

And I can't write about their family.

Many people in the compound came to write couplets.

It's a busy job.

In the evening, the eldest brother came back and told Yang Xiaole about his car.

Yang Xiaole naturally promised to accompany him tomorrow.

However, the thing that made Yang Xiaole entangled was that after the incident last night, Qu Ying, the woman, actually didn't let him enter the house.

It's okay to go out.

But this Chinese New Year, where does he have time!

In the evening, I got her some food and put it on the table.

……

The next morning, people ushered in Chinese New Year's Eve.

The Chinese New Year is very important for people now, and no matter how difficult it is, it is necessary to prepare for what they need for the year months in advance.

Save money.

Just to have a good New Year.

Chinese New Year's Eve is nominally not a holiday, but most people will take leave not to go to work, and the old lady was on duty in her Chinese New Year's Eve last year, so she doesn't have to go this year.

The family got up early in the morning and started to work as soon as it was dawn.

Everyone wore what they thought was the latest clothes.

Leave a few people to post couplets.

To make the dishes needed for the New Year at night, a lot of meat has to be cooked in advance, after all, there is only one pot now, which seems very busy.

Yang Xiaole followed his eldest brother to the department store and bought a bicycle.

With the certificate of the share and the certificate of the factory issued by a commercial bureau, I went to buy a permanent 28 big carry, 165 yuan.

I went to the police station again to get the steel seal.

When I got it all done, it was almost noon when I got home.

In the compound, the children hang from house to house to see whose food is delicious.

If it was in normal times, it would definitely be scolded, because there is a shortage of food now, but now for the New Year, basically every family has been preparing for the New Year for so long.

It's still a little stocked.

In other words, this is the case in Kyoto.

Kyoto is supported by the whole country, and there are still imported things, so overall it is not worse than last year.

"Shoot!"

When Yang Guangzhi learned that the two brothers who bought the car were back, he hurriedly took the firecrackers prepared by Yang Xiaole and lit them directly.

Crackling, resounding throughout the alley.

After a puff of smoke, a group of nearby children flocked to pick up the squibs.

And the eldest brother happily pushed the cart to the compound.

Naturally, it attracted onlookers from the entire compound.

There muttering, complimenting, adding some more excitement to this lively New Year.

He didn't accept gift money, but the eldest brother still distributed candy to the people in the compound.

This year, after the release of high-priced sweets and sweets, the children were happy.

In the past, I used to eat a certain amount of food, and when I finished eating, it was gone, and I couldn't buy it if I wanted to, but now there are high-priced products coming out.

Even families who are picking on the door will buy a little candy and pastries for their children.

If the conditions are good, weigh half a catty.

If the conditions are poor, according to the number.

Overall, Sijiu City is obviously a little more vibrant than last year.

As for the countryside or other provinces, no one knows what the situation is.

"Brother, Ming'er is going to skate!"

The courtyard was lively, and Yang Xiaole ate melon seeds and blended into this lively atmosphere.

Other people's melon seeds and peanuts are tasted during the New Year, and they are all divided into points when they are eaten.

But their family has almost never been broken, and the food is still benevolent.

It's because I'm worried that the shell will be too conspicuous.

Yang Xiaole shook his head: "Ice skating on the first day of the new year? You're in the wrong head, huh? Wouldn't it be enough to visit the temple fair? ”

"The temple fair is not held at all this year, and it has stopped."

The eldest sister is helping the old lady with her work.

Hearing this, a sentence suddenly came.

Yang Xiaole was stunned for a moment when he heard this: "Don't do it?" When did it happen? ”

The temple fair, for the people in the city, is a spiritual life, and the temple fair was held under such difficult circumstances last year.

I didn't expect it to be closed this year.

"It's been a week since the notice came down."

The eldest sister muttered casually, and handed him a bowl of "fairy soup".

As a person from Huizhou, I am still used to eating this soup during the Chinese New Year.

Some seasonings such as shredded pork, shredded tofu, egg drops, etc., are thickened with the broth of boiled meat, which is very thick, and can be eaten for half a day.

Plus eat some fried snacks and you won't be too hungry until the evening.

Yang Xiaole took the thing and took a sip with a sigh.

Then he pondered what the eldest sister said.

Sijiu City as a whole has not changed much, but when it comes to the whole country, the situation is not very good.

Otherwise, the temple fair in Sijiu City would not be held without it.

But he can't control this, you must know that there is a lot of help now, but it has been refused.

Even if he had a way to get food, no one would dare to ask for it.

looked at Qu Ying next door, the other party must have eaten alone this year.

He came here with a rice bowl, lifted the curtain, and smiled at Qu Ying, who was busy inside: "What are you doing?" Give me a little to eat, and cut that chicken butt to me. Anyway, you probably won't eat it. ”

As he spoke, he pointed to the salted chicken in the big bowl and smiled.

The chicken butt of salted chicken he likes to eat.

The duck and goose are not good, it is too smelly, only the deliciousness of the chicken.

Remove the small piece of yellow lymph on top, and it tastes good.

Qu Ying looked at him holding the rice bowl, glanced at him angrily, and went over to cut off the chicken butt with a knife and put it into his bowl.

"How do you like this?"

Then I went back to work.

Yang Xiaole took a bite and smiled: "You don't understand!" ”

Then he complained: "You are bold now, you dared to ignore me yesterday!" ”

didn't ask her what she ate, except for the New Year's dishes, basically he got them.

The Chinese New Year is not much lacking.

Hearing this, Qu Ying's face turned red and gestured with the knife; "You stinky rascal, disgusting. Hum!!! ”

Then come back and continue to get things.

Yang Xiaole ate, smiled, and then looked at his rice bowl.

This is starchy and instantly feels a little unappetizing.

After snoring, he said in a low voice: "I have said hello to you about the school, and you can register after the New Year's work." Do you hear that? ”

These words made Qu Ying's hand slow down a little.

Finally, he nodded slightly: "Got it!" ”

He didn't lift his head.

Seeing this, Yang Xiaole smiled at her and said, "Come here!" ”

"What?"

"What do you say?"

Looking at Yang Xiaole's obscene appearance for a while, Qu Ying didn't get angry.

But after thinking about it, he still walked over and asked angrily, "What are you doing?" ”

"What do you say! Hurry up, I have to go back to work after kissing, I'm pouting my ass and panicking. ”

Hearing this, Qu Ying touched her forehead.

How did you meet such a person, a man now, no matter how bad his heart is, he looks like a decent man and a gentleman on the surface.

Yang Xiaole is like a second-rate son all day long.

How did you fall into the hands of such a person?

In desperation, I could only come over and kiss it, I was afraid that this guy would not be able to help running in for a while, and now it was the New Year.

"Hey, slimy!!"

Qu Ying looked disgusted, kissed it, and then hurriedly came over to wipe her mouth with a towel.

Glared at him in disgust: "Okay, go back quickly, there are so many people outside!" ”

Yang Xiaole saw that she was not angry, so she retracted her head with a smile and returned home eating.

Others have seen his movements.

I thought that the other party was just looking, and no one suspected anything, after all, it was just a head sticking into the room.

The laughter in the compound, the aroma of various fried and boiled dishes, made the usually somewhat lifeless compound more energetic.

Yang Xiaole threw the dishes and chopsticks to the eldest sister to wash.

Looking at the scene in the compound, I feel that this is the taste of the New Year.
