Kuai Chuan Teaches You To Be a Man

Chapter 28: 1980, a little sweet

At noon, we cooked a few dishes in a serious manner, and cooked hot pot in the evening. The four of us sat around chatting and eating, and the atmosphere was really warm.

Qiao Yue was a picky eater, and Yu Xia was so happy to see that he didn't touch or eat, so he held his head and watched him move his chopsticks. Who could still eat when his girlfriend stared at him like that, Qiao Yue's sitting position was quite casual at first, but after Yu Xia stared at him for a while, he straightened his back, and found that the line of sight hadn't moved away, he thought about it for a while. , put a meatball into Yu Xia's bowl.

"Xiaxia you eat."

Yu Xia looked down at the round **** in the bowl, and then returned to Qiao Yue a few things, and chuckled in his bowl and said, "You can eat it too, Ah Yue."

Qiao Yue stared at the fungus, winter bamboo shoots, carrots, and two round coriander **** in the bowl. After staring for a while, it didn't disappear from the bowl, and then he slowly moved his chopsticks. He didn't see much expression on his face, as if he was completing an important task, taking each bite very seriously. Ms. Qi, who was sitting across from him, couldn't help but laughed, and Qiao Yue raised her head to look at her when she heard the sound, with dissatisfaction in her small eyes.

The son was protesting this, so Qi Huitong put away the expression of watching the lively, took out the professionalism of her medical school professor, and turned around to give Qiao Yue Science a face. This fungus, winter bamboo shoots and carrots are all good things. Eat more.

Later in the evening, Yu Xia led Qiao Yue around the house twice, taking a walk to digest food. Inside the room, Comrade Qiao Jianguo spread out a pancake on the sofa, watching his daughter-in-law sitting beside him knitting woolen yarn and saying, "Look at Yu Xia, just smile like that, my son eats a big bowl of vegetables in a daze. No, it's not better than what you said about vitamins and nutritional value?"

Qi Huitong nodded as he listened, and after listening to him, he threw the stick and needle: "I was thinking that we should learn from Comrade Yu Xia, we must keep pace with the times, and next time I will point to those and give him a bowl, and then just Do you think it's appropriate to see him laugh at Old Joe?"

Qiao Jianguo: …

"Is it suitable for you? Do you think he will eat it with the chopsticks you used? Don't you know the son you gave birth to?"

That's right, I almost forgot that Qiao Yue is a bit clean!

Such a difficult person made Yu Xia smooth and smooth, and he had no temper at all, so it was no wonder that half of the inpatient department was changed in just 20 days. Qi Huitong had to admire his vision and action: "Tell me, if I hadn't started fast, my son wouldn't know what year and month he would be able to get a partner. Just like him, it's possible to be a bachelor for a lifetime. If I didn't Damn Qiao Yue, I feel deeply aggrieved for Comrade Yu Xia, others are cared for and cared for, but with this stupid son of our family, how can you expect this?"

Qiao Jianguo expressed dissatisfaction, "Xiaoyue has improved a lot."

"Yeah, I think it's much better than his dad. When we were dating, you brought wild flowers to me at your door; you invited me to watch that movie, and it was still a free ticket issued by your unit."

"We're old husbands and wives. What are you talking about? How embarrassed for young people to hear?"

Qi Huitong gave him a white look: "Don't worry, the young people went out hand in hand, and won't be able to come back for a while! I saw too little of the world at the beginning, so I let you coax me like this, you are really not as good as Qiao. cross!"

What is Qiao Yue, who was praised by his mother, doing?

Two days ago, he bought a fireworks stick with all his might to light it up for Yu Xia to play with. The children from the nearby families were lying at the door looking envious. Yu Xia ordered a few sticks, then beckoned the children to come over and distributed the small fireworks stick to them. Qiao Yue put his hands in his pockets, watching Yu Xia squatting half-squatting to distribute fireworks sticks to the children, not forgetting to remind them one by one to be careful when lighting, not to burn their hands.

After the separation, the children were still unwilling to leave, the older one hugged Yu Xia's waist, the younger one hugged her leg, and the pretty sister kept calling out.

"Sister, are you brother Qiao Yue's girlfriend?"

Qiao Baobao, who was named, had a bad intuition, and sure enough, he heard the little chubby dun next door say, "Don't be nice to him, I'll marry you when I grow up!"

Xiao Pangdun said this, and the other children nodded in unison: "Brother Qiao Yue is fierce, beautiful sister, you will be bullied by him!"

Qiao Yue looked straight at the fat man who smeared him, so frightened that he hurriedly hid behind Yu Xia. Seeing that the children were seriously afraid of him, Yu Xia gave Qiao Yue a funny look, and then stretched out his hand to squeeze Fat Du'er's chubby fleshy face: "The fireworks sticks distributed to everyone were bought by Qiao Yue brother, Qiao Yue brother to sister very good."

Fat Dun'er buried her round head in Yu Xia's arms, rubbed it, and after a while, she stuck her head out and said to Qiao Yue, "Thank you, brother Qiao Yue."

Qiao Baobao, who was robbed of his girlfriend, reluctantly accepted the gratitude of the nearby children, and still thought in his heart: I'm really thankful, just take the fireworks stick and play while playing, don't occupy my girlfriend!

Seeing Yu Xia getting along so well with these troublesome children, he was a little dazed, Xia Xia was so gentle and careful, she would definitely be a good mother in the future.

That night, there was a fight with the nearby children. The child was on fire. After enough trouble, he went back and drank a bowl of **** soup. Nothing happened the next day. Yu Xia caught a cold, which made Qiao Yue nervous.

Just last night, he felt that the nearby children weren't so disgusting. Yu Xia caught a cold, and the favorability score that was raised after it has been raised has dropped back again. He still doesn't like the stinky boys who have no sense in playing.

Seeing him **** off, Yu Xia changed his tricks and made fun of people by guaranteeing and acting like a spoiled child.

Colds and colds come fast and walk slowly, especially for a healthy baby like Yu Xia. She has never been sick all winter. She feels uncomfortable at first, but when she is almost healed, school will start soon.

The dormitory building was opened three days in advance. When the time came, Qiao Yue helped carry the luggage downstairs. Because many things in the rented house were brought from home by him, there were not many people who needed Yu Xia to bring them back to the dormitory. In addition to the two clothes, Qiao Yue also put honey milk powder on it. As for the dishes and quilts, he plans to move home in two days.

The twenty-fifth dormitory was still the same, that is, there was no one living in it for a month, and the room was covered with dust. Yu Xia was the first to come. She put down her things and was going to go downstairs to find Qiao Yue. Auntie stopped.

"You girl, how good is it to keep the sausage for yourself, and even give me meat for the New Year in Beijing!" She took two packets of fruit candy from the cabinet beside her feet, "My son is in the sugar factory. At work, he brought a lot of this back in the New Year, how can I eat so much? Girl, take two packets."

Yu Xia pushed that it would be fine to grab a handful and eat it. Aunt Wang took it and stuffed it into her arms: "My son and their work unit will give out candy for the New Year. It's not worth anything, just take it."

These two packets of candy were not worth putting in Aunt Wang's mouth, and they weren't cheap when they were taken out. Yu Xia looked back carefully. They were fruit candies with various flavors. They were wrapped in shiny candy wrappers, so that they could enter the mall. goods. No matter how good things are, Yu Xia has also seen them, but she is not too rare, thinking that if they can keep it cold today, she can send a letter to her home and take it home by the way. It is true that one person can't eat such two big bags.

Yu Xia was busy preparing for the start of school, so she had to quickly jump out of the state of vacation and return to the state of intense study. She also had to pick up the translation work she had left behind. At the beginning of the semester, she was slack for other students, but she was fully committed.

Last semester's transcripts were also posted. The number one major was Yu Xia. In the first week of school, she received the first-class bonus distributed by the college, with dozens of dollars.

Everything returned to the right track at the fastest speed, and there were twists and turns. After Yu Xia returned to school, he went to the staff building to pick up cats. As a result, the two cats became angry with her, just like the wife caught the husband who had an affair, meow meow. Meow several times, super fierce!

When Yu Xia saw the fierce look on her face, she was pretending. She turned around and made a gesture to leave, but the cat hugged her calf aggrievedly to keep her from going, and her big eyes like black grapes were wet.

"Meow~"

Except for Qiao Gouzi, everyone who sees this picture will soften their hearts.

Yu Xia seriously reflected on himself, and profoundly admitted his mistake: "Yes, I'm wrong, I should take the time to see you! I promise that this will definitely not be the case in the future, even if you want to leave, make a report first, okay?"

As she said, she stretched out her hand to the cat, and the two kittens thought for a while, and then put their claws up, and that's it.

Compared to Yu Xia, who was playing cats and training dogs in Beijing, it's not too much to describe his hometown in S city as chaotic.

Years ago, I felt that I had plenty of time. When I came back after a year, I felt nervous after high school in the commune. The villagers raised their fingers to count the days. The college entrance examination in 1979 was only four or five months away. Yu Xia's college entrance examination champion still seems to be yesterday, why is he going to take the test so soon?

During this period of time, parents can often be heard saying, "Look at Yu Xia!"

Thanks to them, Yu Xia's story has spread throughout the commune. I heard that she came first in the exam, and the provincial leaders came to her house to give out bonuses. Newspapers across the province published photos of her and the leaders. I heard that she was admitted to Beijing Medical University, and the school issued the water bottle for bed sheets and quilts, and she still received more than ten yuan a month. I heard that her teacher introduced her to a very lucrative job. I heard that she went to study in a large hospital in the capital during the winter vacation. The leaders of the hospital were very satisfied with her, and they planned to let her go to work after graduation! By the way, she took the first place in the exam last semester, and the school gave her dozens of bonuses, and she also recommended her to join the party...

This is not something that Lao Yu's family blew out, but a commune cadre who said that Beijing City came to investigate Yu Xia's family situation and wanted to know what her family was. The cadre asked the other end and asked how Yu Xia was doing at school. They said it one by one, and the commune cadres were confused. The cadres honestly told them that the generations of poor peasants in the Yu family were all responsible. Nothing happened.

The other side also said that they cultivated talents in the public society. Yu Xia was unanimously recognized by her teachers and classmates in the school, and she was also recognized by the hospital during her study in the hospital. Said that there will be opportunities for her to study again in the future, and she will be assigned directly after graduation.

After communicating with the other side in Beijing, the commune cadres turned around and blew Yu Xia a pass. The next day, Dad Yu went down to the ground carrying a hoe. In the middle of the way, someone congratulated him. A few words made Dad Yu stunned and asked why. What happened, they replied: "The commune cadre said that the school recommended you Yu Xia to join the party, and the above is investigating the situation of your family."

Dad Yu was so frightened that he lost all the work in the field, turned around and went to his eldest brother's house.

"Dad, I heard that the commune was called from above to ask about the situation of our family!"

Yu Dagui was sitting in the yard drinking tea, looking at the shoes on his feet while drinking, and only after hearing this did he glance at his second son: "What do we have to ask?"

"It's said that Xia Xia is going to join the party, and the top should not know the composition of our family?"

Yu Dagui could not wait to slap this idiot on the head: "Why are you panicking? There are several generations of poor peasants in our family who have never made a fortune, so they can't hold back the second sister!"

The old lady was making needles and needles in the house, and after listening to their grandfather's words, she also wandered out: "Your father is right! The fact that our family is poor is the most hindrance to Xia Xia!"

"What nonsense are you talking about, old lady? Our family was poor a few years ago. Isn't this much better? Didn't you just give money to Xia Xia?"

"That one hundred yuan is very beautiful for you to use. I feel bad for the old lady."

She was talking about the hundred that Yu Xia sent to her mother a year ago. Others praised her for her ability, and the old lady was worried after being proud of others, for fear that her granddaughter would treat herself harshly in order to subsidize her family. She thought about it for two nights, remembering that Xia Xia was born in February, she used this as an excuse to send it back with 100 yuan, saying that she would have a good meal and buy whatever she liked.

Yu Xia received the letter and remittance slip on Friday, and she was too busy to forget about her birthday. At this moment, when I think about it, I am moved as one of them, and then it breaks down...

She didn't tell Qiao Yue about this, she really didn't remember it.

Counting the days, her birthday is next week, Yu Xia thought about mentioning it to Qiao Yue over the weekend, fearing that if he didn't say it and passed like this, he would get angry. As soon as they met on Sunday, Qiao Yue led her through the streets and alleys to eat a bowl of noodles in an alley in the special side courtyard.

"This house has some history. They were not allowed to do business in the past. They were forced to close the door. When the policy was released at the end of the first year, they set up the stall again." Qiao Yue said, bowing his head and playing with his fingers. , "Xia Xia, what do you think?"

Yu Xia held the hot bowl of noodles and replied, "The soup is very fresh and the noodles are chewy."

Qiao Yue was very happy when he heard it, so he was so happy, and then lowered his head: "I originally wanted to make it for you, but I learned from my mother for two days, but I can't make it well. Cooking noodles is much harder than writing computer code. too much."

Yu Xia laughed at first, but she moved the stool to get herself closer to Qiao, put her idle left hand on the back of his hand, and pinched his articulated fingers.

"Let your superiors know that I let these hands, which are enough to influence the computer revolution, cook noodles for me. I'm afraid he won't give me a good look." Looking at Qiao Yue, who was a little dejected, he stuck to his ear and asked in a low voice, "Did you know about my birthday, baby?"

"Listen to what my mother said, she has students/students/documents/documents over there, and the date of birth is written on it."

Now that he said this, Qiao Yue took advantage of the situation to express his dissatisfaction: "Xia Xia, you didn't tell me, I almost didn't prepare a birthday present for you."

"Didn't I get sick after the new year? School will start after I get better. I really forgot about it," Yu Xia recalled while eating noodles, "When I was young, my family was in poor conditions, and then I really looked forward to my birthday, I can eat a boiled egg on my birthday. This is the case in the countryside. I will eat an egg with a bowl of sugar water on that day. If the conditions are better, I will have a mouthful of meat. The day is today, and my dad said that the beginning of spring will be my birthday every year, and I will live the beginning of spring."

Qiao Yue was very curious: "Then why did you name it Yu Xia?"

"…"

Yu Xia swallowed the words in his mouth, and then said, "My sister was born in the spring and named her Yu Chun. It happened that I was born on the day of Lichun again, and my father had no culture, so he said he was named after him. It's called Yu Erchun. When he mentioned it like that, he made my aunt make fun of him, saying that the wife is still the original wife, so you're thinking of the second spring; then if there is another one, in the spring, shouldn't it be called Yu Sanchun? My dad heard something wrong, so he changed his tune and said that the order should follow the order of spring, summer, autumn and winter, and he would call me Yu Xia, and if there was a girl in the back, he would be called Yu Qiu."

It was funny to talk about it afterwards. At that time, Yu's mother was still depressed for a few days, not because the aunt said what happened in the second spring, but because she was afraid that she would really have another girl.

Even in the city, it is not easy to live even with a daughter. In the countryside, you have not had a son for a few years after entering the house, so the pressure is not to mention much. The mother-in-law does not give a good face. People who usually go to the field to do farm work and wash clothes will also gossip, and they can scold you for being a professional student and lose money when they quarrel.

Yu Xia was trying to be self-righteous, and even went to her milk to walk around in a bad mood, and then he took the old lady down. Also because of her high spirits, everyone in the commune said that Yu Xia of the Yu family had to give her a thumbs up, and they would not praise her. How could they still remember that when she was born, everyone pouted and said that Yu Xue-nong was born again. Got a girl movie.

When it comes to the name, it is inevitable to think of these. Qiao Yue also found that she was distracted, so he reached out to his girlfriend and shook it: "Eat the noodles quickly, if you don't eat it, it will be cold."

Yu Xia ate the noodles in the bowl and drank the noodle soup. She wiped her mouth with toilet paper, Qiao Yue settled the bill with the boss, and when she went out, Yu Xia asked him, "I didn't say I prepared a birthday present? What is it?"

Seeing that Qiao Yue didn't say anything, Yu Xia reached out to touch his pocket, Qiao Yue quickly grabbed the chaotic paw, and replied, "Things are in my dormitory, not on him."

"Oh, are you going to invite me to your dorm?"

Qiao Yue was very nervous, he nodded, and then looked around him with anticipation: "Xia Xia, do you want to visit my dormitory?"

Most of the single dormitories for unmarried men have nothing to look forward to, but because Qiao Yue has a mild cleanliness addiction, Yu Xia is curious about his room.

The dormitory allocated by the research institute is not too far away. It is not too far away by bus. When I go to the place, I see that it is a fairly new unit building with a total of five floors. Qiao Yue lives on the third floor. He took the key to open the door, and when he entered, he felt that the room was warm. Yu Xia glanced around and saw the heating pipe by the window.

"I heard from the seniors earlier that the newly built university dormitories have heating pipes. I was still wondering what it would be like to have heating, so comfortable."

Qiao Yue took off his coat, took the down jacket that Yu Xia handed over and hung it up for her, and then said, "This dormitory was moved here last year, and I wanted to ask you if you wanted to come over to me on weekends in the winter. I'm also afraid that staying in the same room will affect you."

The young couple you meet once a week stays in the same room and you want to study hard. Isn't that a dream? Yu Xia got closer to warm his hands, and then turned around to look at Qiao Yue's house.

After looking around, she found the kraft paper box on the head of the bed. Seeing that Yu Xia noticed it, Qiao Yue took the initiative to walk to the edge of the bed and sat down, reached out and took the box and put it on her lap. Yu Xia followed and sat next to him. As soon as she sat down, Qiao Yue pushed the kraft paper box on her knees towards Yu Xia.

Although I said that I don't want to receive gifts on my birthday, I still look forward to getting the gifts prepared by the object. Under the gaze of Qiao Yue, Yu Xia opened the lid of the box, and inside was a pair of well-crafted calfskin shoes, suitable for spring and autumn, a bit like Oxford shoes.

She took one out and took a closer look. The details were really good, and it should be comfortable to wear.

Yu Xia tilted her head and asked, "This is for me? A birthday present for me?"

Qiao Yue nodded and asked Yu Xia to try to see if it fit her feet. After seeing her wearing it, she asked her if she liked it. After asking, she didn't give Yu Xia time to answer, saying that she accompanied her to the department store last time for grandpa in her hometown. Nanny bought fur shoes. She was wearing rubber shoes at the time. Qiao Yue wanted to persuade you not to think about your family. She grabbed the money and bought a pair of warm shoes for herself. The old school building has not been covered with heating pipes in winter. How cold... He still didn't speak in the end. Who doesn't know what kind of temperament his girlfriend is? If you persuade her, she will tell you that it is not cold, not so cold, and that you are young and anti-freeze.

Qiao Yue also thought about buying a pair out of his own pocket, but he couldn't find an excuse, and he was afraid that she would not accept it.

Hearing that Ms. Qi said that Yu Xia's birthday was coming, he had to warm up soon after buying a pair of fur shoes, so he went to buy a pair of calfskin shoes.

These shoes are almost becoming Qiao Yue's obsession.

Yu Xia's heart was really sour when he heard what he said, her eyes were hot, and she wanted to cry. Among all these people, Qiao Yue is really the one who cares about her the most.

People who are stupid are more disadvantaged. Like Ms. Qi, she still thinks that her son will not hurt people if he is not enlightened.
