Chapter 42 Chapter 42 Carrying Water

In the evening, Pork Belly deliberately ran to the neighbor on the second floor who was crooked. He also started to gain a bit of notoriety on the street, so he quickly achieved his goal after talking about it. Indeed, the Wu family is relatively rare in the county. There are so many brothers and sisters, and Wu Zhi and his generation are all young and born and raised. The crooked neck came back from the army and was assigned to a film company. His mother-in-law heard it After the neighbor's confession, his heart began to beat, and he was clamoring endlessly at noon, but now he persuaded the man to forget it, and he couldn't afford it!

Zhu Ziqiang looked at his proud mother, and asked a little funnyly: "Mom, is this your method?" Pork Belly said with a smile: "Do you think my mother is worthless? By showing off? Let me tell you, although your uncle and the others are indifferent to us, but if something happens, they will definitely stand up. Do you believe it?" Zhu Ziqiang laughed and said, "I wouldn't believe it even if I beat him to death!" Pork belly also smiled and said: "San'er, you underestimate your uncles too much. Yes, they love face and take advantage of it, but seeing me being bullied, can they keep their face? People say Wu Zhengmu's My sister was bullied by others... Do you think that someone who loves face like your second uncle can bear it? Also, I give them so many gifts every year. Big brother, hehe, my own is making me miss it!"

When it comes to the pig's head, both mother and son feel sad. At night, Zhu Ziqiang turned around and couldn't sleep. In his previous life, studying occupied most of his time. Since the death of the pig's large intestine, the pillar of the family fell down, the pig's head turned ruthless, and the pig's liver hurt people and ran away , and the mother who always thought she had no ability stood up decisively. Now Zhu Ziqiang understands that the mother is the pillar of the family! What happened today made Zhu Ziqiang start to think about human nature and people's hearts. People are good at being bullied, and horses are good at being ridden by others. The few knives in the pork belly can not explain this truth very clearly, and the cunning shown later, this is not the same as Zhu Ziqiang. The ideas formed in my mind clashed violently.It seems that the real learning is just beginning.

The next day, Crooked Neck persuaded the other two families to seal an iron gate with bricks on the stone ladder, and each of the three families took a key. The intention was obvious to prevent their house from drinking water! The pork belly kept sneering, and went out without saying a word. The pork belly didn't come back until the door was sealed. Seeing Zhu Ziqiang at home alone, she was about to go out with two buckets on a pole. Zhu Ziqiang hurriedly stopped his mother: "Mom! , where are you going to fetch water?" Pork Belly smiled bitterly and said: "In the alley opposite, the Commercial Bureau has built a fish pond there. I have agreed with people, and the water fee is two yuan a month. Go there to fetch water."

Zhu Ziqiang pressed the pole: "I'll go!" Pork Belly pointed to his shoulder and said, "You need to rest your shoulder for a few days. It's fine. Your mother has been carrying water from the river since she was a child. I haven't paid attention to this difficulty." Zhu Ziqiang shook his head resolutely and said: "I will be fifteen soon, Mom, how old are you then, give it to me!" After finishing speaking, he took over the bucket of burden.Pork Belly's heart twitched for a while, his eyes became hot, he turned his head and said, "Slow down..."

Zhu Ziqiang knew his mother's temper since he was a child, and she basically didn't cry in front of her child. Picking up the bucket again and walking out of the house, this time Zhu Ziqiang didn't feel embarrassed anymore, everything just started! Zhu Ziqiang leaned over the side of the fish pond, waited for the water in the bucket to fill up, then pulled it out vigorously, adjusted the height of the bucket a few times, so as not to break the bucket.He squatted down halfway, and as soon as the weight was lifted on his shoulders, Zhu Ziqiang's face turned pale with pain!Gritting his teeth hard, he straightened up with a hey sound, and walked away with the water in his arms.

Trying to grasp the balance, his shoulders were already numb with pain, Zhu Ziqiang thought to himself: the working people are great, and there is nothing difficult in the world, as long as there is a heart!The water in the bucket was still swaying badly at the beginning, but when it approached the door of the house, there were only slight ripples.About 400 meters away, when Zhu Ziqiang arrived home, his vest was soaked with sweat.Pork Belly looked at his son, without saying a word, and asked Zhu Ziqiang to pour water into the jar: "Go and beat today's rice milk." Without saying a word, Zhu Ziqiang took one yuan and put it in his trouser pocket, divided the rice evenly between the two buckets, picked it up and left.The rice was swollen, and thirty catties weighed sixty catties. Pork Belly looked at his son's back with tears in his eyes, his lips trembling, and he stood in a daze for a long time.

Zhu Ziqiang never expected that he would run into Li Biye as soon as he arrived on the street. This little beauty who has been a classmate for three years has now grown up like a flower like a jade, and together with Yang Yuyan, she was named the peerless twin girl of Merit County No. 1 Middle School!When Li Biye saw Zhu Ziqiang carrying the bucket, his mouth was wide open and his eyes were wide open. Zhu Ziqiang felt his face was very hot, very hot. "Squad leader..." Zhu Ziqiang opened his mouth, but he couldn't say a word. He just looked at Li Biye, and the surprise in Li Biye's big eyes had turned into pity and sympathy. Zhu Ziqiang suddenly turned his head and walked away. Ziqiang obviously felt that something was breaking, silently breaking, and the feeling in his heart was like a numb shoulder.

Li Biye chased after two steps: "Squad leader! Zhu Ziqiang! Stop!" Instead, Zhu Ziqiang quickened his pace, Li Biye opened his mouth, looked at the slender and slightly immature back, tears came out, and tightly covered his mouth with one hand, she didn't believe Zhu Ziqiang who was always high-spirited, top-study, and handsome , Carrying buckets like a peddler walking down the street to transfer ownership.There are many people who pursue her. Since the second year of junior high school, those love letters called Xueyou have not stopped, but since the day of enrolling in junior high school, the boy with a small crew cut and a cute smile on his face has occupied her heart. Year, for the past three years, I have been separated from Zhu Ziqiang by the aisle, peeking at his focused expression, straight nose, aristocratic confident mouth corners, and raised eyebrows during class, watching him slowly The land is tall and tall, and his gestures are more and more like the prince charming he imagined. Finally, after graduating from junior high school, he can leave home to study, and the opportunity has come!Li Biye is applying for the financial school of a technical secondary school, and the admission notice has arrived, and she also knows that Zhu Ziqiang is determined to take the entrance examination to No. 1 Middle School in the city. In a strange place, the purest love of a girl can be released, completely released, without reservation !

Today, Li Biye met the prince in trouble, Zhu Ziqiang's eyes were full of melancholy and unyielding, could it be that a holiday completely changed him?Was his father's death really such a blow to him?Li Biye decided to stay and wait here!She wanted to see what Zhu Ziqiang was doing. When Zhu Ziqiang walked past Li Biye, a door in his heart closed silently.He laughed at himself in his heart: Now you are just a boy living on the street, but you are a noble person like a princess, the class monitor... Thinking of the way Li Biye looked at him in the past, and comparing it with the way he just looked, Zhu Ziqiang shook his head and picked up a bucket of water. step forward.

When he finished making rice milk and was about to rush into the alley of the public toilet, he was stunned again. Li Biye had obviously cried, and he never left. Li Biye stared at Zhu Ziqiang's twinkling eyes and asked, "Why?" Zhu Ziqiang smiled wryly and did not speak, but answered quietly in his heart: for life.What is life? Zhu Ziqiang felt that this question gave him a headache.Letting go of the charming man who blocked the way, Li Biye followed closely behind Zhu Ziqiang. Do whatever you want, come and see it, when you look up and see the word "public toilet", Zhu Ziqiang sighs in his heart: welcome new students!This sentence was said when he met Li Biye for the first time.Unexpectedly, Li Biye seemed to hear his heart, and said in the same sentence three years ago: "Welcome me?" Zhu Ziqiang felt very surprised, looked back at her, nodded silently, and wanted to say: Come if you don't dislike her.But I feel that this sentence is too much, maybe it is better for people to retreat, because Li Biye's stubborn eyes make him very powerless. "Mom, I'm back." Zhu Ziqiang put down the bucket and poured the rice milk into the wooden jar. Li Biye walked gently into the low door. The darkness and damp in the room made her frown uncontrollably , This expression happened to be seen by Zhu Ziqiang. "Mom, this is Li Biye, my junior high school classmate, who was admitted to the public finance school." Pork Belly looked at Li Biye, who looked like the person in the painting, and as soon as his eyes lit up, he wiped the bench with his hands and said to Li Biye, "I've seen you before. You also went when San'er's father died. Come here, sit down. Sit down quickly! Li Biye? I’ll call you Biye, now our family is in trouble, don’t be disgusted!” Li Biye nodded to Pork Belly very politely: "Hello, Auntie!" After speaking, he walked over obediently, hesitated before sitting down, and Zhu Ziqiang suddenly said: "Let's go!" The two women looked at Zhu Ziqiang in surprise, not understanding that Zhu Ziqiang, who has always been kind, pushed people face to face, who knew that the young man's self-esteem was hurt?Li Biye's habitual actions angered him. "Don't sit down if you think it's dirty! If you think it stinks, go away! There is no need for your love to overflow here, let alone your kindness and kindness. Let's go, classmate!" The proud and arrogant girl never expected that Zhu Ziqiang, who was gentle and polite in the past, would say such a thing, and it was to himself, and in front of his mother, he would issue an order to evict the guest! Li Biye looked at Zhu Ziqiang tremblingly: "What did you say? Say it again!" Pork Belly grabbed Li Biye, stood in front of her, made a protective gesture, glared at Zhu Ziqiang and cursed: "Why are you crazy? You took the wrong medicine! Go pour water! Who taught you to treat people like this?" What?" Turning to Li Biye and smiling, "Come here, Biye, come and sit with your mother, don't bother with this stinky kid, his head is flooded, hehe, alas, look, such a big man is still crying No nose?" Li Biye hurriedly wiped away the tears that had already flowed down her face. She was still angry, but it was hard to get angry in front of Pork Belly, and Pork Belly said again: "Biye has been admitted to the finance school? It's rare, you have the ability! Alas , Unfortunately, my third child can't get into No. 1 Middle School." He said while watching Li Biye's face. Sure enough, when Li Biye heard that Zhu Ziqiang couldn't go to the city to study, his face changed drastically: "Why? Did something happen? Didn't get the notice?" Pork Belly hurriedly said: "No, no, it's because he won't go by himself, he will study in County No. 1 Middle School, alas, his temper is as stubborn as a cow, I can't help it! Miss, can you help me persuade him?" How could Li Biye remember the anger he received just now?Turning around, he yelled at Zhu Ziqiang, "You're crazy! Why don't you go to No. 1 Middle School in the city? Why? Is there something wrong with you?" Zhu Ziqiang was too lazy to talk to her, so he found a book and turned around to leave. The pork belly hurriedly shouted: "Saner Saner, is Li Biye still at home? Where are you going?" Seeing Zhu Ziqiang leaving without looking back, the pork belly hurriedly pushed Li Biye: "Don't just stand there stupidly!" , hurry up and persuade him! Let’s have dinner together at home tonight.” Li Biye paused, but still gritted her teeth and chased after her. At this moment, there was only one voice in her heart: Zhu Ziqiang will not go to No. 1 Middle School in the city anymore!
