"Why didn't you get on the bus just now?" Just as Jihuan was about to find a seat after swiping his card, the bus driver suddenly spoke up.
Look around: there is only one passenger in the car, and there is no room for misunderstanding that he thinks the driver is talking to someone else.
It was a middle-aged man with a shaggy beard. He was wearing a bus driver's uniform on his lower body, but he was wearing a T-shirt with holes in his upper body.
Jihuan knew this driver and took this bus to and from school every day. He knew almost every driver of this bus, but he never talked to them.
First, he didn't like to talk since he was a child, and secondly, Grandpa told him not to talk casually with people he didn't know.
Grandpa-Jihuan's heart trembled again.
Jihuan remembered that the first time he took a ride to the town to go to school independently, Grandpa came over holding his hand.
Watching him get in the car, Grandpa kept waiting in place, Jihuan kept staring at Grandpa in the car, the side window could not be seen, so he ran to the large glass at the rear of the car to see that Grandpa was always there. There, in the distance, after seeing his figure, he waved at him.
"How...how do you know..." I just didn't get a ride? Staring at the side face of the bus driver, Ji Huan asked.
"My colleague said that you won't get in the car while sitting there, and then the second colleague said the same, and they told me to pull you up if they saw you were still there." The uncle driver said, he His tone was not solemn, but Ji Huan heard concern from his words.
"I... don't want to go home immediately." Probably because there was no one else around, Ji Huan suddenly told this familiar stranger what he had just really thought.
"I didn't do well in the exam? But you go home so late every day. You're not a good student. As for why you don't dare to go home because of an exam?" The driver squinted his eyelids.
Ji Huan didn't say a word, and after a while, just when he was about to get off the car, he whispered, "I'm afraid... see Grandpa."
"Ha? Are you afraid of being beaten? Even if I beat you, it's your grandfather. I remembered it. I have seen your grandfather. Once there was a car accident on the road, your grandfather was very anxious. He's not a vicious person, so you should go back quickly, admit your mistake, make a promise, get beaten up a few times at most, and you'll be fine." The driver said a few more words, and then, before Ji Huan was in a relationship He said a few words, his destination arrived, and Jihuan was immediately kicked out of the car by the driver.
Watching the dilapidated bus chug away, Ji Huan turned around until he could no longer see it.
But I have to say that the conversation with the bus driver just now worked, and he regained his composure.
Ji Huan slowly walked towards the direction of home.
It is summer now, when the vegetation is at its most lush, and the water in the stream is also the most abundant. There are weeds under the feet, very thick, soft and soft when you step on it, but you can't step on the ground with one foot. The sound of water, the rustling of feet stepping on the grass, and Ji Huan could hear Zhi Zhi's cry.
However, as Ji Huan got closer to home, these voices gradually disappeared.
The rustling under his feet disappeared, he stopped, Ji Huan looked at his feet, and was stunned when he saw the grass disappearing into the ground unknowingly.
He is already at the door of the house.
The yard of Jihuan's house is very flat. Although it is not paved with slate, it is rare to have to weed from time to time like other people on the mountain who use land as the ground.
The soil in his yard is not good, and it is not easy to grow anything, just one tree, which was cut down by the grandfather a while ago to make a memorial tablet for his sister. Later, Jihuan and grandpa pulled new soil from the side and spread it in the greenhouse, so that they could eat home-cooked vegetables.
Grandpa said that this is because his family has a good hot spring.
Hot springs, plants are hard to grow, mosquitoes are not disturbed... What else is there
Red clay, yes, red clay.
Ji Huan looked at the bare land under his feet. It was so dark that he couldn't tell the color of the land for a while, ah... Why can't he suddenly remember the color of the land in the yard? Obviously, he has to clean the yard every day...
Ji Huan stood at the door of the house. This time, instead of calling out to Grandpa as usual, he gently opened the door.
The room was dark and silent.
Jihuan's movements were also quiet.
He walked lightly to the door of Grandpa's house, paused for a while, and gently opened the door after a while.
He didn't knock on the door, didn't call Grandpa, he just pushed open the door.
Due to regular oiling and maintenance, the door shaft of Jihuan's house has been used for many years, but it still works very well. There is almost no sound when the door is pushed.
Grandpa's door quietly opened.
Ji Huan slowly walked towards Grandpa's bed, and then he saw the black egg sleeping there.
There was only Black Egg on the bed, and the little paw moved from time to time, probably dreaming.
Grandpa is not there.
Staring blankly at the black egg on the bed, Ji Huan slowly backed out, just like when he came, he gently closed Grandpa's door again. However, just as he was walking towards his door, Grandpa's voice suddenly came from behind him.
"Xiao Hua, is that Xiao Hua?" In the dim corridor, Ji Huan vaguely saw Grandpa's figure leaning against the door.
Looking at Grandpa's posture, he opened the door from the inside, and Jihuan had just entered there, and Grandpa was not in the room. Grandpa is like popping out of the house out of thin air...
His pupils shrank, and Ji Huan immediately replied, "Well, grandpa, I'm back."
"I'll change my clothes first, and then I'll go to your house and pick up the black egg."
"Don't worry, you eat something first. Grandpa can't finish the porridge you made in the morning, so I left it in the pot for you." Grandpa nagged as usual.
Hearing the familiar words, Ji Huan replied almost reflexively: "Then why can't you finish the porridge, Grandpa, you didn't eat well—"
At this point, the words suddenly stopped.
"Hey! Xiaohua, you are so attentive, you can't hide anything from you, forget it, forget it, grandpa will eat porridge with you in a while." Grandpa didn't notice Jihuan's pause, and went straight on.
He then turned around and went back to the house. With a "snap", Grandpa slapped on the lights in the corridor, and the corridor immediately lit up. At first glance, from the dark environment to the bright place, Ji Huan was dizzy. Grandpa had already re-entered the bedroom, and after a while, he came out with the black egg in his arms.
Jihuan reflexively looked at Grandpa's feet and found that there was no shadow there, his mind went blank.
Numbly, he went to the kitchen to heat up the porridge, made milk powder for the black eggs, fried a little cabbage, and boiled three eggs at the end.
"Hey! Xiaohua, what's wrong with you? Didn't you tell Grandpa before that you shouldn't eat too much at eight o'clock in the evening?" Grandpa was always hungry before, and often got up in the middle of the night to eat, Jihuan went to see experts After the column knew that this was not good for the digestive system of the elderly, it set a rule for the grandfather. The grandfather and grandson have been unswervingly implementing this iron rule for many years. Also following Huan.
"I'm hungry today, and it's fine to eat once in a while." After hesitating for a while, Ji Huan immediately gave Grandpa a chopstick of cabbage.
Then Grandpa happily ate the cabbage with chopsticks.
"... They are cruel, never live in groups, and are pure flesh-eating monsters that are rare among monsters... "
The words of the black-eyed young man played repeatedly in Ji Huan's mind, and Ji Huan found that he couldn't control himself not to compare his words with the grandfather in front of him one by one.
Grandpa eats cabbage very deliciously, and even, while Jihuan was not paying attention, his old man ate half a plate of cabbage.
When Grandpa was eating, Heidan stared straight at Grandpa eating the cabbage. Seeing that Grandpa was eating deliciously, Heidan's little mouth opened, and his cold little paws pulled his uncle's arm. The face has been looking in the direction of the grandfather.
He didn't see his uncle talking to him for a long time, and the black egg turned to look at Jihuan, and then...
blah blah blah blah blah...
Drops of water dripped onto Black Egg's cheeks.
The straight white eyes immediately looked up, and saw that water droplets were constantly pouring out of his uncle's eyes, Heidan watched it seriously for a while, and after a while, Heidan stretched out his small claws and pulled La Jihuan.
He pulled several times before Ji Huan looked down at him.
Then, Heidan generously handed the bottle in his paws to Jihuan.
Jihuan was stunned.
After a while, he found that there was still "water" in Jihuan's eyes. The white ring of the black egg rolled around and landed on his little paw for a moment. Finally, he stretched out another paw and showed it towards Jihuan. There was an egg hidden there.
Then Jihuan wiped away her tears and smiled.
This night, Jihuan had another dream.
In the dream, he was crying, and it was the first time Jihuan saw him cry.
Then, Ji Huan saw that he stretched out a small claw-like hand and handed a large bottle of milk to the crying self, then another large bottle, and finally a lot of eggs.
In the dream, he smiled stiffly.
Then "Jihuan" felt very happy.
One second Jihuan was still happy, the next second Jihuan was happily playing with eggs, and the baskets for toys were all white and red eggs! There are also green frogs and green cars, "Jihuan" had a great time.
After this boring game content lasted for a while, Jihuan saw the horned monster that appeared before again.
This time, the horned monster was even clearer in Heidan's dream, so clear that Ji Huan could see every detail of his scales clearly.
"Jihuan" saw that he was being held by a monster to eat, and while eating, the monster drooled at him.
"Jihuan" was very scared.
However, the other party seemed to be just drooling, and there was no other action. The monster handed him a bottle for a while, and stuffed himself with biscuits for a while, and "Jihuan" felt more comfortable.
Then, "Jihuan" was carried around by the shofar monster in his arms.
"Black Egg, this is a tree!" Ji Huan heard the shofar monster say, but unfortunately, he was talking about a tree, but the direction of his finger was a corn.
"Black Egg, there are clouds in the sky!" The shofar monster pointed at the sky again, but unfortunately, today is cloudy, and there is not a single cloud in the sky.
There is something wrong with the shofar monster's eyes - in the dream, Jihuan thought to himself.
After the extremely wrong teaching, the shofar monster carried himself to the toilet.
When Jihuan was ready to be smoked, suddenly, he was stunned:
The monster vomited.
With the sound of vomiting again and again, Ji Huan saw that he threw up all the food he had eaten in the morning.
It was only then that Ji Huan noticed that the monster was very thin.
Then, when "Jihuan" was carried by the shofar monster into the house to play with frogs, he was suddenly not afraid at all.
Looking at the shofar monster, Jihuan saw that he handed him a feeding bottle.
The invisible shofar monster didn't know why, and then Jihuan saw that he poked the monster's white beard with the pacifier of the feeding bottle again.
When the horned monster finally understood what was going on, a smile suddenly appeared on the ugly face.
Although it was ugly, Ji Huan was sure that it was a smile.
Then, together with the black egg in the dream, he heard the monster say happily:
"Heidan, you are really a filial child, as filial as your uncle Xiaohua! Grandpa is so happy—"
So Jihuan and the black egg in the dream laughed together.
