Jiang Shen actually said his name many times before, but Bai Jinyi and Lai Song seem to prefer to call him "Little Swan". Seeing that he couldn't correct it, Jiang Shen let him yell. After all, there are a lot of nicknames in the countryside, and he calls Chen Maoxiu doggy and doggy all day long.
After eating KFC, Jiang Shen had to take the bus home as usual, and Bai Jinyi and Lai Song took him to the station. It seems that the children in the city have never taken this kind of short-to-medium-distance round-trip bus. Lai Song kept asking questions all the way, so he almost went up with Jiang Shen.
Jiang Shen found a seat by the window and sat down, while Bai Jinyi stood under the window, looking at him with his chin raised.
"Your dancing shoes!" Bai Jin mouthed, "It's time to change!"
Jiang Shen didn't see clearly: "What?!"
Bai Jin stood on tiptoe and pointed to his shoes.
Jiang Shen understood.
The car was about to leave, Jiang Shen didn't have time to speak, so he could only wave his hand at Bai Jin, with his forehead pressed against the window glass, staring at the car as it left the platform, Bai Jin stood still, his back straight Straight, with slightly squinted eyes, the expression is still very remarkable.
Seeing that her son didn't eat much for dinner, Tan Lingling was surprised, and asked, "What's wrong? No appetite?"
Jiang Shen had no choice but to say honestly: "It's time to eat after class."
Tan Lingling: "What did you eat?"
Jiang Shen: "My friend took me to KFC."
Tan Lingling opened her eyes wide, she looked at Jiang Luoshan, and the father naturally understood: "Who is it?"
"Bai Jinyi in the boxing gym opposite." Jiang Shen finally decided to peel an egg and eat it, "I told you."
Jiang Luoshan's memory finally came back to the small words he said to his son during the back rub a few nights ago: "You two have such a good relationship?"
Jiang Shen had an egg yolk in his mouth: "He took an egg from me, so he gave me back KFC."
Tan Lingling laughed: "How can your bastard compare to KFC, it's taking advantage of others."
Jiang Shen frowned. Although he was young, he also knew that taking advantage of others was not a good thing, and he always felt as if he had done something wrong: "Then what should I do?"
Tan Lingling took the bowl away, and scratched the bridge of her son's nose: "I have to pay off my own debts, so let's find a way."
There is still half a month before Gou Mao and Shu Bao will start school, and the top priority for Gou Mao is to finish the summer homework first while he can finally have fun. Fortunately, there is Shu Bao among them who is more dependent But Shubao is a master, and if he wants to copy his homework, he has to exchange things for it.
"Don't try to fool me with milk this time." Shen Shubao sat cross-legged in his yard, surrounded by a group of boys of the same age from the neighborhood who followed Chaomiansheng, "Our family has so much milk that we can't drink it! "
Qing Lingzi and Jiang Shen are the only two children who don't have to worry about their summer homework. Looking at his brother's spineless appearance, Qing Lingzi really hates iron and steel.
"He can't wait to lick Shubao's shoes." Qing Lingzi complained to Jiang Shen in a low voice, "It's really useless."
Jiang Shen took a closer look: "No, Shubao has a cleanliness habit, and he doesn't like his shoes getting dirty with saliva."
"..." Qing Lingzi couldn't take it anymore, grabbed the dog's tail grass and threw him, "Why are you so stupid."
Jiang Shen: "??"
Shubao looked this way: "Don't fight! Qing Lingzi, be gentle."
"I didn't do anything." Qing Lingzi protested, she muttered a few words, "Brother Shubao spoils you too much, doesn't he?"
Jiang Shen: "A few days ago, he kicked my ass because I stepped on the strawberries he planted."
Qing Lingzi laughed: "Then he spoils you too, I think he gave you milk for several days, have you ordered milk yet?"
Jiang Shen nodded: "It's ordered, and the delivery started last week."
Qing Lingzi: "Drink two glasses of milk a day, you are so beautiful."
Jiang Shen hesitated for a while: "Tell me, if I give a cup of milk to a friend, will he be happy?"
"It depends on who it is." Qing Lingzi stretched her legs and sat on the ground, nonchalantly said, "If people also have milk to drink every day, why would they need yours?" After a pause, she asked curiously, "You To whom?"
Jiang Shen was vague: "It's not anyone..."
Qing Lingzi twirled her braids, and said in a very beautiful narcissism: "I don't want milk~"
The psychological pressure brought by a meal of KFC is obviously more serious than Jiang Shen thought. He has never been so worried when he grows up. He has almost been swayed by him in the fields and countryside, thinking about what he can get in return all day long. Bai Jinyi's kindness to the chicken.
Of course, he was also worried about dog hair.
In Chen Maoxiu's words, Shen Shubao is becoming more and more difficult to serve.
Shen Shubao’s family has a field, but because both his parents have jobs, the field is full of fruits. Fortunately, the field is not big, and it is enough for self-sufficiency. Shubao planted a small strawberry field on a whim, and Gou Mao volunteered to help him water it. Fertilizing and weeding, Shubao copied a few pages of math homework for him every day.
"It's like a landlord's skin!" Gou Mao complained while weeding in the strawberry shed, "I worked so hard for a day and didn't copy more, and I had to exchange my language for something else. Why do you think he is so bad."
Jiang Shen didn't have to work, and was called by Shubao to watch people, and supervised whether Gou Mao was lazy.
"It's okay." Jiang Shen's expression was serious, "The grass over there hasn't been pulled out yet."
Gou Mao: "..." He threw the hoe, "Why are you so obedient to him?!"
Jiang Shen said cautiously: "Because Brother Shubao will beat me up."
Gou Mao pretended to raise his fist: "I will hit you too!"
Jiang Shen curled his lips: "Then I can sue Brother Shubao and ask him not to copy your homework."
"..." Gou Mao had no choice but to grit his teeth and pick up the hoe again.
Strawberry seedlings are planted in late August and can be eaten in about three to five months. Children in the country love strawberries, especially girls. Although Shubao is his field, the principle of sharing is there. , Gou Mao and Jiang Shen are both involved, so don't look at the young men who are usually foolish, but in order to eat delicious food, it is everyone's responsibility to unite as one and work hard.
Gou Mao carefully held the seedling leaves and looked at them for a long time. After pulling out the weeds that were too close to the roots, he had to observe whether there were insects on the newly grown stems and leaves.
The inflorescence of strawberry is not very beautiful. When the new stem grows three leaves and the fourth leaf has not grown, the inflorescence will be revealed in the stipula sheath of the fourth leaf, so when the third leaf is counted , Gou Mao became excited all of a sudden, and called Jiang Shen under his voice to come and see.
"Look here." Gou Mao pointed to the leaf sheath, "The third leaf has come out, wait for the fourth leaf after a while, and the flower buds will be all there."
Jiang Shen poked his head and saw that the leaves on the new path were small and tender green, as if they had sprouted and were fragile.
"It's so cute." Gou Mao sighed. At this time, he would look like a native farm child. "This year's harvest must be good." Gou Mao rubbed his nose, "The rice grows even taller."
Jiang Shen's family mainly grows rice, and the word "harvest" is related to their family's living conditions for a year. Hearing what Gou Mao said, Jiang Shen is happy even if he doesn't understand.
"It would be great if there was a good harvest." Jiang Shen squatted beside the small strawberry seedling, resting his chin on his knees, "I have enough money to go to school."
Gou Mao didn't speak. He knew that Jiang Shen started school with them this year. Maybe it's not a big deal for others, but for Jiang's family, it's not a small fee just to add things to Jiang Shen after school starts. .
"Why don't you go to school after cutting the wheat." Gou Mao asked, "Is it okay for your dad to cut the wheat by himself?"
Jiang Shen was a little disappointed: "I don't know." He actually wanted to help, but he was not allowed to do heavy farm work at home. Teacher Lin also wanted him to protect his joints and back. Heavy work like harvesting wheat is easy. Hurt.
Gou Mao didn't know about his dancing practice, and obviously didn't understand what Jiang Shen was worried about.
"Don't think about it." Gou Mao stood up, and he stretched out his hand to Jiang Shen, "There will always be a way, think about November, we will have strawberries to eat."
When it comes to strawberries, Jiang Shen's interest is high again. He thought for a while, and suddenly asked: "Can we buy such good strawberries in the city?"
Gou Mao was a little confused: "I don't know...we all eat our own, who bought it."
Jiang Shen: "I want to give it away, but I'm afraid he has already eaten better."
Gou Mao snorted: "Go, go ask Shu Bao."
"Strawberry?" Shu Bao was helping Qing Lingzi mix the paint, and the little girl was standing at the head of the field with a drawing board, and she didn't know what she was aiming at with her pen upright.
Shubao mixed the two colors together, and distractedly said: "The fruit is sold in supermarkets in the city. As for whether it is good or not, I haven't eaten it yet, so I can only go and see."
Jiang Shen asked anxiously: "Is it as big as us?"
Shubao smiled: "Our natural wild strawberries are definitely not comparable in size."
Jiang Shen sighed: "Then what's the problem..."
Gou Mao refused to accept: "We are sweeter!"
"Is it sweet?" Jiang Shen doubted, "You have never tasted those big ones."
Gou Mao and Shu Bao stopped talking. They glanced at each other, and Shu Bao couldn't help asking Jiang Shen: "What's the matter with you? I just heard Qing Lingzi say, who do you want to give milk to?"
"I'm a friend from the city." Jiang Shen kicked the small stones under his feet, he secretly looked up at the dog hair, Chen Maoxiu looked puzzled.
"Look at me." Gou Mao pinched his head, "Say it."
Jiang Shen took a breath, he still felt very embarrassed: "I gave him an egg before, but he took me to KFC."
Shubao raised his voice: "You cheated KFC with an egg?!"
Jiang Shen hurriedly defended: "I didn't lie, he insisted on taking me there..." After thinking about it, it seemed that Bai Jinyi didn't "force", so this sentence became even more frustrating...
Gou Mao had no choice but to ask: "Then how much did you eat?"
Jiang Shen counted with his fingers: "They ordered fifteen large chicken nuggets, two boxes of chicken fast, eight chicken wings, and a hamburger..." After finishing speaking, he hurriedly cleared things up, "I didn't eat the hamburger ah."
Shubao: "...are you pigs?" After a pause, he said again, "No... your friend was taken advantage of, right?"
Jiang Shen said weakly: "I didn't eat that much, they ate a lot..."
Gou Mao was obviously still calculating how much these things cost, and he was a little shocked.
"Forget it, idiot." Shubao slapped Gou Mao's finger away, "Let's go to the city with Shenzi first, and see what we can buy to pay back to him."
Gou Mao yelled: "Wow! What a fart! We Shenzi probably haven't even seen 100 yuan in RMB!"
Jiang Shen: "..."
