Chapter 2. Six Years Old Memories Are Blossoms(1/2)
In the summer of 2002, Xuezhu did not spend the summer vacation in the countryside as usual on her last summer vacation before elementary school.
My best friend Zhu Qingying made an agreement with her before graduating from preschool that she would also attend a class in elementary school, but her mother told her that they could not decide on class division, and that they would not know if Zhu Qingying was attending a class with her after school starts.
Xuezhu was worried about this all summer vacation, but adults didn't understand her.
If you don’t understand, you’ll have to force her to practice the piano.
She was in no mood now, so she simply escaped from home.
Xia Chan roared wildly, and the two old men sat against each other under the shade of the tree to play chess, frowned and looked thoughtful. The three two old men around him patted the palm-leaf fan while driving away the scorching sun and pointed at the current chess game. When eating chess pieces, the leisure and laziness were fully interpreted.
The old man saw Xuezhu standing beside him and watched, he asked her kindly if she wanted to learn chess.
Xuezhu was forced by her father to learn chess when she was very young. She had a shadow of this and ran away immediately with a dry smile.
Swaying and swaying, he ran to He Zhengyue's house on the first floor to play.
She likes to go to her sister Yueyue's house because there is a small TV that was eliminated in her room, with two sheep horns and no signal. Most channels are snowflakes, and only the local station has pictures. They display wild advertisements selling medicine every day, which are still black and white. However, children are addicted to TV, and even watch advertisements with relish.
But today happened to be there, there was no adult in He Zhengyue's family, and the two sisters finally didn't have to be wronged and read the advertisement.
But the advertisements of serious TV stations are also very long. For children, every time the most exciting time comes, they will stop suddenly, and pinch the uncle who is in a low voice and say, "Don't go away, the advertisement will be more exciting after it." This is simply one of the most shameless lies on TV stations. The advertising time of a few minutes is as long as a century of time travel.
"I'm so annoying. Will you die after performing an episode and then putting on commercials?" He Zhengyue complained, "Let's watch VCD."
Of course I will die. Who will watch the advertisement after the episode has been played?
The TV station staff are very smart.
She ran to the TV cabinet and squatted down, opened the drawer where the CD was stored and searched.
Most of them are pirated CDs bought from audio and video stores.
"Let's look at lavender?"
Xuezhu nodded and said yes, she knew that even if she said she didn't want to watch, her sister wouldn't listen.
Because He Zhengyue fell in love with the plant lavender and purple, she saved pocket money to buy a small glass bottle containing lavender and small notes, which filled the entire bedside table. She even told her parents about it that she wanted to paint the walls of the room purple, but she was scolded by her parents as a matter of course.
There is an advantage to watching VCD. If you want to watch the episode, you can watch it, and you don’t have to be merciless at the mercy of the TV station.
He Zhengyue jumped directly to the unfair scene of the male and female protagonists.
An unconscious expression of a vulgar and shy expression was revealed on his face.
At this moment, the living room door was opened, and in a very dramatic way, He Zhengyue's parents came back.
Aunt He's voice sounded like a devil from behind the two sisters.
"He Zhengyue! You are watching such messy things while your dad and I are not at home! If you have time, you will not be able to even get the score line for the first-year high school entrance examination. We will also have to spend money to get you in!"
Then the aunt saw the little bamboo sitting on the sofa.
The aunt collapsed instantly and shouted at the top of her throat: "You dead girl, you actually took Xiaozhu to watch it!"
It is not advisable to make a public family scandals publicly, so the aunt closed the door and beat her daughter up.
Xuezhu was invited out, and in order to compensate her, the aunt gave her a bottle of prince's breasts.
Xue Zhu, who earned a bottle of prince's milk for nothing, sat on the stairs drinking milk, biting the straw and wondering if she went upstairs to play with Zhong Zihan.
But Brother Zihan should be at the summer cram school at this time, right?
Xuezhu has never met a child who is more pitiful than Zhong Zihan. Although she has piano lessons every week, she still has time to play at least. However, perhaps she is not yet in the age of taking Olympiad mathematics classes, and she may have to force her to take Olympiad mathematics classes when she is twelve years old.
She racked her brains to try to pass the time.
As long as you don't go home, you'll be fine wherever you go.
Since my mother spent a huge sum of 10,000 yuan to buy a Haiman piano. In order to play back the 10,000 yuan, my mother wished she could sleep directly on the piano.
The harsh car whistle cut through my thoughts.
Xuezhu looked up and saw a van slowly passing the trail and finally parked in front of her.
The middle-aged man walked down the main driver. He was a little rude and the car door was closed heavily, which scared Xuezhu.
Xuezhu quickly stood up and ran aside to make way for him.
The middle-aged man wore a vest, and his muscles were covered with sweat. He spitted out the cigarette at the corner of his mouth with his cheeks. The cigarette butt fell to the ground and was soon slapped by him.
His brows were frowning from beginning to end.
Xuezhu only dared to look at him quietly with her eyes squinted.
"Meng Yuning, come down to move things." The middle-aged man opened his mouth and spoke.
Xuezhu seemed to be able to smell the smoke from his mouth.
The passenger's car door was also opened at this time. Xuezhu subconsciously covered her ears, but she did not hear the sound of smashing the door.
The person sitting in the passenger seat was gentle and not noisy at all.
It's an older brother.
The dazzling spots of midsummer fell on his face, thin and tall, with white skin, and delicate eyebrows and eyes. He had a pair of tea-brown pupils embedded in his eye sockets, as if he was soaked in a tuft of water, with a faint and no focal length, and his hair color was lighter than that of ordinary people, showing a gentle brown chestnut color.
A middle-aged man is very strong and taller than others, he puts the cabinet on his shoulders without any effort.
He urged the boy in a deep voice: "Hurry up."
Then I moved the cabinet myself upstairs first.
The boy's bones had not yet grown completely, his back was thin and thin, and he could not carry such heavy things. He chose a relatively small table.
But going up the stairs is another problem.
Suddenly a small figure flashed across the corner of his eyes and quickly raised a corner of the table for him.
The boy looked down.
Short man, with a glutinous rice ball.
She had two ponytails, two symmetrical pink chiffon head flowers, and dazzling rhinestones stuck to the center of the flower, which was quite dazzling.
The pink head flower said, "I'll help you lift it."
It’s a pity that the pink head flower overestimated his strength. Even if there were two more pink head flower, it might not be able to help others.
The middle-aged man quickly walked downstairs with empty hands, and said tone: "I've gone downstairs and haven't moved it yet?"
I originally wanted to teach my son a lesson, but I saw a little girl standing beside my son.
"Whose child is this?" asked the middle-aged man.
Xuezhu took the initiative to introduce: "I live here too. I saw that he couldn't move, so I helped him move together."
"If he can't even move, you can just help him?" The middle-aged man pulled his lips and smiled twice, waved his hand to drive away the people, "Okay, the kids will stand aside, I'll do it."
The middle-aged man raised the table and asked Xuezhu again: "Children, what floor do you live in?"
"Fourth floor." Xuezhu said.
The middle-aged man was a little surprised: "Hmm? I live on the fourth floor, too."
Xuezhu was also surprised.
Their unit has two households on the first floor. Previously, Grandpa Meng lived opposite Xuezhu's house.
Grandpa Meng is a retired teacher. His wife passed away very early. He lived here alone for many years. Sometimes when his mother cooks too many sweet potatoes, she would send a few to Grandpa Meng, who is opposite.
Grandpa Meng sometimes gave things to Xuezhu's house, but his parents rarely received them, so Grandpa Meng only gave snacks, sometimes it was a raccoon noodles, sometimes it was a Zhenzhijiao of various flavors, and bubble gum that would give away stickers.
Every time Xuezhu secretly accepts bubble gum, she eats the stickers inside, and she puts them on Grandpa Meng’s doorstep.
She asked Grandpa Meng if she could post it at his doorstep, because her parents did not allow her to post it at home, saying it was ugly.
Grandpa Meng smiled and said yes, and praised her for being nice.
Until a year ago, Grandpa Meng passed away.
The funeral was held in the community, and a large shed was built on the spot. The wreath made of paper was so gorgeous and beautiful in the eyes of the ignorant children, which contrasted with Grandpa Meng's black and white photos.
No one will stand downstairs earlier than his parents after school in Xuezhu Kindergarten and greet her with a smile, stuffing bubble gum into her small schoolbag.
Xuezhu, who was unwilling to accept this fact, would still take out a wrinkled dime from her pocket and go to the convenience store to buy a piece of bubble gum, and stick the stickers inside at the door of Grandpa Meng's house.
A year passed, and the door opposite never opened again.
A long time will make people learn to accept many facts that they were unwilling to accept at that time, including children who were still ignorant.
Until today, new neighbors have moved in.
It's like Grandpa Meng is back.
Xuezhu ran upstairs happily and happened to meet the middle-aged man complaining to the messy stickers posted on the door with disgust: "Which child is sticking things at someone else's door?"
Xuezhu dared not speak.
She wanted to say that she was not sticking it randomly, but she thought it looked very good when she posted it on the door.
It looks much better than the advertisements of "Lock-Opening King" on the wall.
"Uncle," Xuezhu asked, "Then do you know Grandpa Meng?"
