Chapter 43 Parents Are Going to the Provincial Capital

Although firecrackers sounded from time to time in the homes of some teachers in the school, especially the small courtyard of the principals, the lives of the students were no different from usual.

It was still very cold, Feng Yiping still took the opportunity of studying to go to the homeroom to make a fire, and got along with each other inside and outside the classroom. In addition, Feng Yiping won her honor in the final exam, and the head teacher Wang Yumin was no longer deliberately rigid towards him. Face.

Well, in fact, she has a stern face, and it is useless to Feng Yiping, an old fritter.

In this way, I just focus on studying hard, and the days go by very quickly. On Saturday, it happened to be the Lantern Festival. The bell rang for the last get out of class in the morning, and the teacher just went out with his forefoot, and the sound of "ding ding bang bang" sounded in the classroom. It was when the students were in a hurry to pack their things when they came across the food. canning jars and enamel bowls.

Some are already locking their desks. They have had a recess and have already packed their things.

There is no reason for it, the home during the Chinese New Year is more attractive than the usual home.

Xiao Zhijie came over to find Feng Yiping and invited him to Xiao's family. He was supposed to go to pay homage to his old age, but it didn't work, because tomorrow, his parents were going to the provincial capital.

The school is still a bit of a human touch. Not only are the first graders on vacation, but the second and third grade students are also on vacation today. Together with the three other students in the village, it is rare that seven of them go home together.

Feng Hongbing said maliciously, "The main reason is not to give us vacations, but the main reason is that the teachers themselves want to take vacations, which is why they use us as an excuse." Don't say it, this statement really has some truth.

Before leaving the school, Feng Wen seemed to have finally got rid of his shackles, tossing his schoolbag, "Wow" strangely, all the past classmates looked sideways.

But soon, he paid the price for his youthful frivolity.

After every summer, a simple wooden bridge is built over the river. A few pine trees are tied together, which is a bridge, and a few wooden stakes are nailed into the middle of the river, which is a bridge pier. The river is very wide, there are two such simple wooden bridges, and there is a gap between the two bridges.

When Feng Wen was crossing the bridge, he deliberately walked very quickly. His original intention was to show his hand. At the mouth, he didn't walk well, but jumped. One fell unsteadily, stumbled, and slipped into the river with a "pop".

Several people in the same group, including the classmates on the road, couldn't help laughing when they saw this scene.

The water is not deep, but cold! While scolding her mother, Feng Wen climbed onto the bridge with both hands and feet, and then walked to the shore honestly.

This time I couldn't walk fast because the cotton shoes got into the water and were very heavy.

Everyone stopped and waited for him. It was impossible to go barefoot. Feng Yiping helped him twist his cotton shoes and squeeze out the water as much as possible. Feng Hongbing dug out a pair of socks in his bag, put them on for Feng Wen, and walked home just like that.

When he got home, his parents were still waiting for him to have lunch together. At the dinner table, Mei Qiuping said to Feng Yiping, "Yiping, what did you tell Changning? His father came to the house the day before yesterday."

Feng Yiping said, "Yeah, I told him about the chestnuts you bought and asked him to discuss with his parents whether he could do the same. Didn't I tell you a few years ago that someone came to ask, and I wanted to do it too. Yes, we all told them, and we couldn’t stop them. Mom, the provincial capital is so big, and they wouldn’t rob us of business if they went there. Those migrant workers in the village, not one person found the right place, they would take a few people over there. Well, you say so, Dad."

Feng Zhenchang said, "In the past few days since I came back, many people have asked me that Dongming has decided to go to the provincial capital in the second half of the year. We will help if we can. The more people who go, the more we will take care of."

Mei Qiuping said, "I'm not saying this, of course I won't hide it. I'm afraid that Guosheng will have an opinion and say that we will help the Changning family and not him."

Feng Zhenchang said, "Guoping and Guoxing don't need to do this, Rongrong is in school now, Rui Rui is still young, and Guosheng really can't get out. If he wants to do this, as long as he proposes, we will give the money and the strength. , he has nothing to complain about."

Feng Zhenchang knew that this was not the reason Mei Qiuping said, but that she wanted to share it with others as soon as she had a way to make some money. Does he have some small lumps in his heart, but when others come to him, he still knows everything, and this is how a person should be.

The meal in the evening was plentiful, but a bit heavy.

Feng Zhenchang is okay. If he went to the provincial capital last autumn, he was inevitably apprehensive at that time, but this time he went to the provincial capital, he was not worried at all.

Although it is not easy in the provincial capital, preparing chestnuts at night, kneading noodles, and grinding soy milk, I have to be busy until after 12 o'clock, and I have to get up before dawn in the morning. After the buns bought chestnuts, I didn't return until 8 or 9 o'clock in the evening. I couldn't eat or sleep well, but it didn't matter, it was nothing.

As a man, he is not afraid of hard work or tiredness, but he is afraid that he will not be able to make ends meet all year round. Now he has the opportunity to earn a few hundred yuan a month, and he is very happy.

Mei Qiuping was different. When she thought that after they left, she would leave her son at her parents' house, with her widowed father, her heart was full of unbearableness.

The son is still young, and it will take at least half a year to see her when she goes. Of course she is reluctant to see him during the summer vacation. Neither of them were at home, and they were inevitably worried that their son was not well taken care of.

In addition, the old father of her family's family is so old, and she has to take care of herself. Now she has to help take care of her son, which means that it has added a burden to him, and she feels a little sorry.

Feng Yiping took the initiative to comfort his mother, "Mom, I'm so old, I can take care of myself, besides my grandfather and uncles, didn't I have a good time last year? I ate well and slept well. , the grades are good, there is nothing to worry about.”

Mei Qiuping got up and went to serve the meal, and she changed her face when she came back, without any worried expression at all, "I know, you are grown up and sensible, you should listen to your teacher, your grandfather, and get along well with your classmates. , The most important thing, you must study hard, we will come back from summer vacation and find you a house in the village."

It's not that Feng Zhenchang didn't notice Mei Qiuping's depression, and he could guess the reason, but he just didn't want to mention it.

He gave Feng Yiping a piece of spareribs, "You, thinking about these things is superfluous. Look at Yiping, when we came back, he was dressed better than when we left. Not to mention he has gained weight. What's more, the grades are better than before, so there's nothing to worry about. Besides, Dad's side, he said that now on Sunday, the grandchildren all go to his place. , it's better than before, what are you worried about?"

Mei Qiuping glared at him, "Of course you don't understand, it's a piece of meat that fell from my mother's body, I'm worried about what's going on!"

Feng Zhenchang drank about three or two wines, and it was already the amount. "Then you say that only you are heartbroken for your son, right? I'm not worried when I'm an old man?"

Seeing that they were doing well, but they were about to choke again, Feng Yiping quickly cleared the siege, "Mom, you can't let my sister hear what you said, or she will definitely say that you are biased again."

Only then did Mei Qiuping say, "I'm looking at Yiping's face, and it's the first month of the year, so I'm too lazy to care about you."

Feng Yiping didn't wait for Feng Zhenchang to speak, and took advantage of the heat to strike the iron, "You really don't have to worry about these, you should make more money in the provincial capital, buy a house in the provincial capital in the future, and marry me a daughter-in-law in the provincial capital."

Hearing him say this seriously, the two adults couldn't get angry anymore and both laughed.

In fact, to put it bluntly, many times, they are not really angry, but at home, in front of their other half, they are too lazy to bear it, and they always have to win or lose. If they are in a hurry, they will inevitably choke.

Knowing that they were leaving tomorrow, after dinner, some people came to the house one after another, the second uncle and the third uncle, Feng Chuntang, and Feng Weidong all came to sit at the house.

For those New Year's goods, there were still melon seeds, peanuts and candies left, and they filled a large plate and brought them to the table. Feng Chuntang joked, "Auntie, you really sacrifice yourself today!"

Feng Weidong also said, "Leave this to Yiping."

Feng Zhenchang grabbed it and said, "I left a big bag for him a long time ago. Come here, eat it, and take it away when you can't finish it."

They were talking and bragging, and they were all puffing up. Feng Weidong said, "Then we're welcome, don't say it, these are all good things, especially this peanut, which we grow at home and buy it outside, it tastes different."

The second uncle asked, "Is it delicious outside or what we grow?"

Feng Weidong said, "The ones I bought sell better than ours. They are big and even, and there are more three kernels. However, the food we grow is delicious."

"Oh, even if it's not cheap."

"Of course," Feng Weidong said. "If you buy a pound of peanuts in the county, you can buy a pound of peanut oil from the oil mill here."

A few uncles who had never been to the county were amazed, "It's so expensive, so why would anyone buy it?"

Feng Chuntang said, "It's okay to be more expensive, but I'm afraid of buying fakes. My nephew from Gaojiashan spent dozens of dollars to buy a pair of leather shoes to bring home before the new year. How could he know that the sole would break before wearing it for a day? , at first glance, the sole is made of cardboard."

Feng Weidong took over the conversation, "Last year, I went on a business trip to the provincial capital with the sales department of the factory to contact the business. I had never been to that sugar and wine company before, so we called a taxi there, and it cost more than 20 yuan, but we ended up at that one. After the company, they said we were slaughtered by a taxi. Follow the road in front of their door, and within a mile, it is our hotel."

In fact, as a temporary worker, it is not Feng Weidong's turn to travel on business. He must have put the experience of other people in the factory on his head.

These methods are actually quite crude, but there is no problem in deceiving those who are in the city for the first time. People from the village who enter the city will inevitably encounter these similar things later.

After a while, Feng Yiping couldn't stand their second-hand smoke, so he got up to help Mei Qiuping sort out what he was going to bring.
