Dusk approaches with the sun's slant westward.

After receiving a call from his mother, Liu Qingshan drove to the intersection seven or eight kilometers away to pick them up.

As soon as I arrived at the intersection, I saw the old couple waiting by the roadside.

My father sat on a big rock on the side of the road, and his body seemed to suddenly shrink a lot. Compared with the big rock, he looked small and weak. He narrowed his inclined eyes slightly and looked at the mountains in the distance, not knowing what he was thinking.

My mother stood aside, and the mountain wind that turned cold after the sun set was still blowing her thin clothes. Her half-white hair was also shattered by the mountain wind, looking a little embarrassed.

Liu Qingshan looked at this scene and looked at the car whizzing past the road not far away. He was even more sure of the idea of ​​buying a car after enough money.

In fact, he planned to buy a car last year. He had done his driver's license and saved enough money. But later, because my mother had a major surgery, not only did she spend all the money, but she also owed a lot of debts, so her plan to buy a car was ruined.

He wanted to buy a car, not to make himself look cool or to attract girls' attention.

He wanted to buy a car just because he wanted his parents to go far away in the future without having to take buses and motorcycles, or to be troubled by the cold wind and cool sun.

"Dad, mom, get in the car."

Hearing his son's voice, the old couple came back to their senses.

When I got home, my father walked freely in front of the warm stove, and his face looked much better. It should be nothing big.

"Sit down quickly." My mother brought her own medicinal wine.

This is a medicinal wine soaked with tiger head bee. It has a very nourishing effect. It can not only be taken orally, but also used externally.

After taking it, it can remove wind and dampness and strengthen the waist and kidneys.

Tigerhead bees contain a certain amount of Tigerhead bees venom. After this substance enters the human body, it can play a good role in relieving joint pain. At the same time, it has good therapeutic effects on some diseases such as rheumatism and bone pain and arthritis.

Dad cooperated to sit down on the small stool.

My mother lifted up his shirt, poured out a little bee wine from the bottle and put it on the palm of her palm, and then slapped her directly onto my father's waist.

"Oh, be gentle." Dad screamed and almost jumped up from the stool.

"It hurts." My mother cursed while rubbing medicinal wine for him, "Now you know it hurts. When the nurses called you several times and you didn't respond, why didn't you cry out for pain?"

When my mother thought of this old man's pug-like face in the health center today, she was so angry that she was so angry that she was so angry.

"You haven't seen a woman in your previous life? Her husband is right next to me. You are still talking to me so hard that you are planning to add some WeChat. Fortunately, you don't have that. If you really have that WeChat, you have really added it." She pinched her father's waist angrily and continued to curse, "If I had known this morning, I wouldn't bother the village chief to send you to the health center. I should have let you suffer from it at home. I think if you dare to show your romantic appearance again in the future."

"Did the village chief send you to the health center this morning?" Liu Qingshan was not surprised when he heard that it was sent by the village chief, just wanted to confirm.

The village chief often helps the elderly and needy families in the village, which is obvious to everyone, so Liu Qingshan is not surprised that the village chief will send his parents to the health center.

"That's right?" said my mother, "Your dad was so heartbroken that he was so painful in the morning. I wanted to call you, but he said you went to the county town to sell bamboo shoots and wouldn't come back for a while. He didn't want you to have trouble, so he didn't call me, saying that he would just wait and go there. The village chief just happened to pass through the mountain in front of our house. He heard that your dad was in great pain, so he drove us to the town without saying a word."

So that's it.

The image of the village chief suddenly became a little taller in Liu Qingshan's heart.

"My waist is an old problem. I have to deal with it several times a year. I originally said I didn't have to waste money in the hospital, but your mother had to talk too much," said Liu Yuanhe.

The whole family was already sitting around the table and started eating.

"Money is important or health is important?" My mother said while serving rice to my father, "I think you must have done too many bad things, so your waist is like this. Look at my second uncle, I have never heard him say that my waist is not good."

My mother angrily threw the food in front of my father: "If you go to provoke those women again in the future, you can live alone and eat alone, and don't bring the filthy air home."

Liu Yuanhe didn't dare to talk back this time.

I don’t know if it’s because I’m guilty or too lazy to take care of my mother.

Liu Qingshan held a plate of scrambled eggs with leeks and placed them on the table: "Dad, eat more leeks, to enhance your aphrodisiac."

Upon hearing this, my mother glared at Liu Yuanhe.

Liu Yuanhe immediately took back the chopsticks that had just been poked out and changed to picking up pork.

"Today I bought vegetables for my eldest grandma." Liu Qingshan recalled the daytime incident and said, "But my eldest grandma still didn't see me. I was so surprised. She often saw her second uncle, so why can't she see me?"

This made my mother and dad look at each other, but didn't say anything.

"Mom, do you think, did I offend her?" Liu Qingshan bit her chopsticks and said in confusion.

"How is it possible? You forgot that when you were a child, my grandmother loved you and bought you a lot of sugar. If it weren't for our family, how could you raise you so big?" The mother picked up a piece of meat for her son and taught her, "No matter whether my grandmother sees you or not, she is an elder. You have made a lot of money selling bamboo shoots now. Remember to buy some vegetables for her soon, do you know?"

"I know." Liu Qingshan remembered what happened when he was a child.

At that time, the big grandma loved him very much. As long as someone from the village came to sell popsicles, the big grandma would be the first to buy it for him.

That penny popsicle is still hard to erase in Liu Qingshan's memory. The sweet smell, the red color of the watermelon, and the holding of the popsicle is like holding a sword, so it's so arrogant.

Some friends in the village are poor at home and can't afford popsicles, so they will always follow him happily. Then, a popsicle, one licks one and another to show friendship.

There is a girl who is very clever. Others always lick her tongue with their tongues at most. At most, she sucks a bite with a hard sip of ice. But she is so sad that she bit off half of the popsicle, which makes Liu Qingshan chase her half of the village.

When Liu Qingshan thought of these things, he burst into laughter unconsciously.

He turned his head and looked at the starry sky outside the yard, thinking to himself, that girl seems to be eighteen this year.

"Qingshan, why are you giggling? Eat quickly, I can wash the dishes after I finish eating." My mother picked up another piece of meat for him and then urged him to have a meal quickly.

Liu Qingshan came to his senses and asked, "Mom, has Chen Xiaofang gone out to work? I didn't seem to see her."

My mother stopped chopsticks in confusion: "What did you ask her?"

"This..." Liu Qingshan paused and said, "I still owe her money."

"When did I owe it?" My mother didn't believe it.

"I owe it when I was in elementary school. I was in the fifth grade, and she was in the first grade."

"How many?"

"Five dollars."

"Oh, the five dollars at that time was quite a lot." My mother said skeptically, "She hasn't gone out to work and has been at home all the time. You can't see her because she is either in the field or at home."

"I thought she was going back to find her biological parents."

"Don't let her grandma hear this. If her grandma hears it, she will definitely scold you." Mom reminded, "Xiaofang was adopted. Her adoptive parents went there early, so she and her grandma are left behind. If you mention her biological parents in front of her grandma, she will definitely fight you to the death."

"Is it so exaggerated?" Liu Qingshan said unbelievably, "Can Xiaofang never go back to recognize her relatives in this life?"

"Don't care about other people's affairs. If you want to pay back the money, you should pay it back. Don't say anything else, do you know?" My mother looked serious and did not allow Liu Qingshan to deny it.

"Oh, I got it."

"Qingshan, how much did it cost today?" My father had a meal and changed the topic.

"Oh, yes, I forgot if I don't say it." Liu Qingshan got up and went back to his room to take out a stack of banknotes and handed it to his father, "This is about one thousand yuan, and it's your part."

"Can I have so many of that part?" Liu Yuanhe held a stack of banknotes, unable to believe it.

In the past, I couldn’t save so much money for a year. Now, I have only dug up a day and sold it for so much money.

Ha, it seems that this waist is really worth the pain.

Liu Yuanhe smiled refreshedly and handed the money to his son: "Qingshan, I'll give you this money. You can buy me a mobile phone worth more than 1,000 yuan on the Internet, and then teach me how to surf the Internet."

When Liu Qingshan heard this, he was displeased: "Dad, why do you think it's all the time? What do you want to do with a smart phone? What do you want to surf the Internet? Isn't it enough to make a phone call on your phone?"

"I don't want you to pay." Liu Yuanhe was also unhappy when he saw his son not agreeing. "Now, no one in the village who is under 50 can't use a smartphone, but your mother and I are still holding this broken brick."

"Dad, we can't compete with others." Liu Qingshan really couldn't figure it out. OK, why did he suddenly think of buying a smart phone?

Just because of that inexplicable vanity?

Liu Qingshan disagrees with nothing he says.

Seeing this, my mother could only be a peacekeeper: "If you don't buy it, don't buy it. Let's buy it when the family's conditions are improved in the future."

As he said that, he winked at Liu Yuanhe.

Liu Yuanhe had no choice but to take back the money.

In fact, Liu Yuanhe wanted to buy a new mobile phone not to satisfy his vanity. Last year on the fifteenth day of the 10th lunar calendar, when his wife's relatives came to his house for the holiday, they kept showing off their mobile phones in front of him, saying that they were all bought by their son.

Although these relatives said they would not come if they had something to do and would not come until the winter solstice, Liu Yuanhe still wanted to buy a mobile phone as soon as possible, so that he would win a game for his son in front of them.

Of course, Liu Qingshan didn't know what his father was thinking. He just felt that his father was extravagant just because he had some money and actually wanted to buy a mobile phone worth more than 1,000 yuan.

Not to mention more than a thousand mobile phones, he couldn't bear to say even seven or eight hundred. The mobile phone he is using now is what a worker on the construction site wants to give him.

So, my dad said he wanted to buy more than 1,000 mobile phones, but he refused without thinking.

It’s not that he doesn’t want to love his father, but he just thinks that many things have to be done within his ability. Now he doesn’t even have decent home appliances at home. Even if he has money, he should first improve his basic life at home, and then use some spare money to show off.

Based on this idea, Liu Qingshan didn't think there was anything wrong with his approach.

The next morning, when I was drinking tea oil, I ridiculed my dad for this: "Dad, if you think that money will bite people in your pocket, then you can put it away for my mom. If it really doesn't work, I can collect it for you. I'm not afraid of money biting people."

Liu Yuanhe knew that his son was talking about what he said he wanted to buy a mobile phone last night, so he hummed and said, "Hmph, how do I spend my own money? What does it have to do with you? If you have this free time to talk about me here, it would be better to go into the mountain to dig bamboo shoots early and sell it for a lot of money."

My mother asked with a smile: "Qingshan, where are you going to dig today?"

"I won't dig bamboo shoots today."

"Don't dig bamboo shoots?" My mother was puzzled, "This is fine, why didn't you dig suddenly?"

"Dig again tomorrow. Today I will go into the mountain to dig something else." As he said that, Liu Qingshan put down the bowls and chopsticks, and did not tell his parents that he would dig anything, but he was still yelling to tell him not to waste a great opportunity to go out.

He walked into the mountains with a hoe. Liu Qingshan did not walk towards the bamboo forest, but instead walked in the nearby mountains.
