There are still a few days to report to the school. I have stopped going to the bookstore, and only concentrate on preparing things at home for the start of school.
Grandpa wanted to bring me everything, even the soap and shower gel he wanted to stuff into my suitcase.
"The school is not in a very remote place. I will buy these when I go there." I had to take it out again.
"Then bring your sunscreen, your military training will take half a month. You can't do it without sunscreen in this weather, the skin will be sunburned." take out.
I don't usually have the habit of wearing sunscreen, but the sun is indeed a bit poisonous these days. I have to practice outdoors in military training. It doesn't matter if I get a tan, I'm afraid of sunburn. After thinking about it, I still wear sunscreen.
After dinner in the evening, Yan Wanqiu came to ask my grandfather and me if we wanted to go to the supermarket with them.
There are many supermarkets and convenience stores on Qingmeiyu, but there is only one hypermarket. The "supermarket" in Yan Wanqiu's mouth is this hypermarket located in the middle of Nanpu Street Road.
There are cinemas, KTVs, children's playgrounds, and many restaurants in the store, which are the main places for local residents in their leisure time.
"Okay, okay, let's go together, just to see what else Mianmian needs to buy, don't miss it." Grandpa agreed, went to the house to get his wallet and keys, and quickly came out.
Yankongshan's car was parked at the gate of the courtyard. Grandpa and Yan Wanqiu sat in the back row, and of course I sat in the co-pilot.
When I got in the car, I inadvertently glanced at Yankongshan. Since the environment didn't allow it, I just smiled at him and said, "Excuse me." I pretended to be polite.
The voices of Grandpa and Yan Wanqiu were all in the car. The little girl has been to Hongshi the farthest. She is full of curiosity about places that are very different from Qingmeiyu, and has been asking her about her travels.
"Grandpa Tea Egg, is snow really hexagonal?"
"No, it's just like cotton. It looks white and feels cool to the touch." Grandpa smacked his mouth, as if he was still in the mood. "It tastes like soft ice."
Yan Wanqiu became more and more curious: "It sounds delicious."
When you arrive at the hypermarket, there is a children's playground at the entrance. The small space is full of children playing wildly. The adults either run with their children or sit and wait in the rest area at the intersection.
The colorful amusement facilities successfully attracted Yan Wanqiu's attention. She walked all the way and looked in all the way, her face was full of envy.
"Qiuqiu, do you want to go in and play?" Grandpa saw her desire and suggested, "Otherwise I'll take you to play, okay?"
Yan Wanqiu's eyes lit up, and he turned to seek Yan Kongshan's approval: "Is that okay, Ashan?"
She asked so obediently, she seemed so eager, and Yankongshan didn't agree with me, I felt that it was unreasonable.
Sure enough, Yan Kongshan agreed to come down without saying anything, but just told her to pay attention to safety and not to go to too dangerous places.
"Let's go, let's go play." Grandpa led Yan Wanqiu to the Children's Paradise, as if he was the one who couldn't wait to play.
In the end, only me and Yankongshan were left to visit the hypermarket. In fact, I didn't know what to buy, so I just followed him around.
"Is everything in order?" Going to the seasoning area, Yan Kongshan took a bottle of soy sauce from the shelf, glanced at it, threw it into the shopping cart, and then searched for the next target.
I pushed the shopping cart and pressed my upper body against the handlebars, as if my spine had rickets, but I just couldn’t walk properly.
"It's done."
Yankongshan took another bottle of cooking wine and threw it into the car, as if he was just casually mentioning: "I'll give it to you that day."
I stopped pushing the cart, stood up and said, "My dad said that he came to pick me up that day."
Maybe my dad really woke up, or maybe he was called and scolded by my grandfather when I didn't know it. During this time, he became very eager to repair the relationship between father and son with me, and even sending messages was more diligent than before. few.
I don't really care. Although my mother always said that he was not worthy of being a father, but after all, he did nothing to feel sorry for me and my mother. And I don't want my grandfather to be in the middle and it's hard to do, and if I talk about "unfilial son" all day long, my dad is his son after all, and he doesn't want to see that our relationship is not good.
Yankongshan heard the words with a faint "Oh" sound, but didn't see much regret, and turned to the snack area.
Marshmallows, chocolate cups, and strawberry sticks are all things Yan Wanqiu likes to eat. Yankong Mountain threw them into the shopping cart without hesitation. Compared with the old father who didn't even know my birthday, the images of the two fathers were simply amazing. Worlds apart.
very nice. I thought with envy in my heart, it turns out that I don't care, but maybe I haven't encountered the point that touched me.
Yankongshan just turned around and saw me staring at him, puzzled: "What's wrong?"
I shook my head, of course I wouldn't say what I was thinking, that would be too hypocritical.
"It's okay, I'm thinking about what else I missed."
I casually picked up a box of wine chocolate from the shelf and glanced at it. I thought that it should not be delicious. After hesitating, I finally put it back and didn't have the courage to challenge.
When I was a child, I would go shopping with my mother in the supermarket. Later, my studies became more and more stressful, and there were more shopping channels, so I stopped shopping. When I do the math, I haven't been in a big box store in years, and the variety of snacks on the shelves today is really eye-opening.
Salt and vinegar-flavored potato chips, lychee-flavored biscuits, and even the green plum oolong, a local specialty, when walking to the tea area.
What does green plum oolong taste like? Will it be sour
I also went to Grand View Garden with Grandma Yu, and everything I saw was fresh.
However, after watching, I still carefully put them back in their original positions, and I dare not try it lightly.
In the end, I just bought a toothpaste and two pairs of cotton socks that should be quite comfortable to wear.
When it was time to check out, because my grandpa didn't bring a cell phone, Yankongshan asked me to go to the children's playground to find them first, and asked them to prepare before leaving.
I ran to the children's playground and saw that Yan Wanqiu was surrounded by a group of children. Grandpa was sitting not far away and chatting with people, laughing loudly.
The little ones all looked happy and moved closer to hear their excited questions.
"Then you're like Hiccup? That looks cool."
"When you grow up, will the prosthesis grow with it?"
"My mother said that prosthetics are expensive, not every child can wear them, they need a very powerful child..."
Yan Wanqiu put his waist on his back, raised his small chest, raised one leg and stepped on the large block beside him, completely exposing his artificial prosthesis.
"Yeah, I'm just cool." She answered everyone's questions one by one. "Prosthetics won't grow up, you have to change them regularly. It's expensive, but my dad is rich."
The children looked at her with admiration, and a little boy asked if he could touch her prosthesis, but was stopped by the girl next to him who appeared to be his sister.
"No way, this is a girl's leg, how can a boy touch it?" After speaking, she changed her expression and asked Yan Wanqiu with a smile, "Can you let me touch it?"
Yan Wanqiu was very generous and nodded without hesitation.
I watched them beside me for a while, and a strange feeling arose in my heart, as if I had drank a cup of hot and sour lemonade.
Children are so cute, it's incredible to think that everyone grew up from such cute children.
Yan Wanqiu looked up, saw me, and quickly put his legs down from the blocks.
"I'm going home, I'll play with you next time, bye!" She waved her hand, squeezed out of the circle, and ran towards me.
The children said goodbye to her one after another, and then looked for their parents to find their parents, and continued to play, and soon dispersed.
I took Yan Wanqiu to find Grandpa.
"That's my grandson, don't you think he's very handsome? He just finished the college entrance examination, he passed the entrance exam to a very good university, and he will become a diplomat in the future." From a distance, I heard Grandpa introduce me loudly to the people around him, He also asked the other party if he had any good girls to introduce.
I was afraid that if this continued, he would arrange a blind date for me, so I hurriedly stepped forward to interrupt him.
"Grandpa, you're home."
Grandpa had to get up and say goodbye, rather unhappy: "How did you buy it so fast?"
"Isn't an hour soon? The supermarket is closed if you continue to chat."
"Where is it?" He glanced at his watch, "Isn't it only eight o'clock?"
When he walked to the exit, Yankongshan was already waiting there with a large bag and a small bag. I went up to try to get a shopping bag from him, but he let it go and staggered.
"Need not."
I glanced at him and saw that he was very persistent, so I had to let go.
Sometimes he's pretty stubborn about it.
When I came out of the supermarket, there happened to be an ice cream at the door. The boss and the proprietress have hand-shaved ice, pour all kinds of jams on the ice, and put them in a small transparent plastic bowl for 5 yuan. The business is not bad, and there are many children around.
After Yan Wanqiu heard Grandpa's description of "snow", he saw Mianmianbing with a coveted face, and was entangled in Yankong Mountain to buy it.
I saw that Grandpa also looked like he really wanted to eat, staring at the stall and gulping, then he paid for it and said he would buy it for them.
I bought two bowls of Mianmian ice, one with strawberry jam and the other with pineapple jam. Grandpa and Yan Wanqiu were frozen to the bone while eating, but they couldn't stop. Photographed and collected.
Yankongshan parked the car directly in front of Grandpa's house, and I bought two things. When I got off the car, I wanted to open the trunk and find it myself, but Yankongshan also came down.
He took out a bag from the trunk and gave it to me. Just looking at the weight and volume, I knew it couldn't be as simple as a toothpaste and two pairs of socks.
I was still stunned, but Yankongshan had already shoved the bag into my arms.
Grandpa ate Mianmian ice, looked at the contents of the bag with a probe, and said in surprise, "A lot of snacks, Mianmian, do you want to take it to school?"
I didn't buy snacks.
I was even more surprised than he was. When I looked down, I saw salt and vinegar potato chips, wine chocolate, green plum oolong...the more I looked at it, the more familiar it became.
It's something you "want" for a moment, but feel it's unnecessary. Yankongshan bought them all.
He moved his lips and wanted to say a lot, but because of the presence of Grandpa and Yan Wanqiu, he had to attribute them all to two words that were trembling.
"thanks."
Yan Kongshan smiled and seemed to want to rub my head. Halfway up, he realized that it was not just the two of us at the scene, so he had to put it down again.
"Will you come over later?"
I had planned not to come tonight, but it was hard to say no when he asked.
"Yeah." I nodded, "I'll come to you later"
Watching him get back into the car, my grandpa and I turned around and entered the door.
Grandpa went straight to the TV as soon as he got home. I hummed a song and took out the items in the shopping bag one by one, opened them and put them on the table.
The potato chips are sour and salty, which directly persuaded me to quit; the alcoholic chocolate taste was too strong and I didn’t like it very much; the lychee-flavored biscuits were unexpectedly good, sweet but not greasy; green plum oolong was neither sour nor sweet, just It has the aroma of green plum, and it tastes good...
I tasted all the snacks on the table, and my mouth was full of mixed flavors, but my heart became sweeter and sweeter, as if it was soaked in a honey pot.
