First acquaintance
Xiaoguang is a friend I have known since the third grade of primary school, when the school he studied at was closed due to the problem of declining students, so he transferred to us.
There were nine people in the third grade, including me, and I sat at the front and he sat in the back row. I heard from his classmates who went to school with him before that he was a little bully at school over there. Relying on his own tall and strong, he often bullied "disobedient" classmates. If you dare to resist, he will use a trick to make you miserable, and then you can only beg for mercy.
The foundation of our friendship was a lunch. His home is far away from the school, and he has to solve the problem of lunch by himself. His uncle's family made steamed buns, and he could always hear his aunt carrying a basket of steamed buns on the road in the morning. In the morning, his mother-in-law would help him make his lunch, put it in an insulated rice bucket, and then he would bring it to school when he went to school. There will be rice, a bun, and a poached egg in it.
He usually finishes his homework before he eats lunch. Often, I came to school after lunch, and he had just started eating. And I always went over curiously to see what he was eating, and he didn't hesitate to either break the bun in half or split the poached egg into two sides and hand it to me.
"I just got full, I'm just curious what you're eating"
"It's okay, I can't eat that much. Try? See how it tastes. ”
I am a person who will not refuse, and I will accept the kindness of others. I can't remember how many times I've eaten his poached eggs since then, or how many sugar buns I've eaten.
Our relationship gradually warmed up, and we would talk about the cartoons we had recently watched and our hobbies between classes. We all love to watch "Blue Cat Naughty 3000 Questions", we all love dinosaurs......
Approaching the summer vacation, he invited me to his house to fish. He told me that there were several fish ponds in his village, and he could fish wherever he wanted. There are also lotus seeds in the pond, which can be picked. So I also promised that I would definitely go to his house to play once during the summer vacation.
I called him Dumb Brother, and we went to the street together to buy hooks and lines, the kind of full fishing sets that can be bought for a dollar, except for fishing rods. We first went to cut the bamboo, and then assembled the hook and fish float and tied it to the bamboo. Then I dug up the earthworms, packed them in plastic bags, and walked to Ah Guang's village.
When we arrived at the village, we found a man who asked where Ah Guang's house was, and she told us that it was at the foot of the mountain over there. We went uphill and came to his house. There was a cypress tree in front of his house, about four or five meters high, and in front of him was a farmland. We shouted at the door,
"Is Ah Guang at home? ……”
"Who?" His mother-in-law heard a voice in the house.
"I'm his classmate, and I'm here to play with him," we responded.
Then her mother-in-law came out and met us with a faltering old woman, who walked towards us with a staggering step
。 I saw her wearing a blue and white loose chiffon shirt, bow pink plastic slippers, and short shoulder-length hair with white hair mixed with black hair.
She looked at us, opened her mouth to speak, and saw that she was missing a few teeth, "You go to the back mountain over there to find him, and he is fishing in a few ponds over there......"
Then we went to look for him, and we searched all the way in the direction that his wife pointed out. As I walked, I heard the laughter of several teenagers. So we sought the voice.
There were two large adjacent bodies of water, separated by a mound of earth in the middle of a small bamboo forest two or three meters high, from which the laughter of the teenagers came. We searched for him, and along the way we asked Ah Guang where he was, and the man took us to him.
"I've been waiting for you for a long time, and I thought you wouldn't come. I look forward to you coming every day, waiting left and right, but I don't see you coming......" Xiaoguang couldn't hide his excitement and told me his feelings.
"I said I would come, and I would come. How long have you been fishing here? ”
"I fish almost every day, and sometimes I bathe in the pond......
Then he looked at our fishing gear and couldn't help but laugh out loud.
"Hahahaha...... Why did you cut your fishing rod like this, you should keep that part of the bamboo tops......"
Our rod was bamboo, which was cut off at the waist, and the line was tied to the cut end......
For a while, we didn't know how to get back, we didn't know how to fish, and we didn't know anything about fishing. Ah Guang is different, his father is an avid fisherman, and these two ponds were dug by the anglers in the village. Ah Guang has been nurtured by his father since he was a child, and he is also very fond of fishing.
Then he helped us find a shady spot and told us to fish there. We were there fishing for a while, and then he brought two bamboos and kept the bamboo tips. We then changed the rods and waited quietly for the fish to take the bait.
A few teenagers over there were diving, stripped naked, and got into the water with a "plop......
I can't swim, so I can only watch from the side.
Towards evening, only a few small fish were caught, and we threw them into the pond. When I was about to go home, Ah Guang went to pick some lotus pods and lotus flowers for us, and told me to eat lotus seeds to get rid of the green heart inside, otherwise it would be very bitter.
In this way, we returned home with lotus flowers.
