Shui Shangqing took Shui Bingyue back to his home. It was now past four o'clock, and in less than an hour, his sons would have to leave work.
"Bingyue, go back to your room and rest. It's getting hot right now. I'll go to the kitchen to make dinner."
"I'm not hot, so I can fan myself to daddy. We haven't seen him for so many days, and I'm not drowsy. I want to stay with daddy."
Shui Shangqing was very excited when he said this: "Okay, then you sit at the door of the kitchen. It's cool there and dad can see you."
Shui Shangqing made stir-fried chicken nuggets, stewed bacon with long beans, and corn pot stickers. We cooked sweet potato and white rice porridge. Several children helped, and since my daughter is back, she should have something good to eat.
When the aroma of meat wafted out, the door of Shui's house was also pushed open. Xiao Qi saw her sister sitting on the threshold of the kitchen at a glance, and was the first to rush over and hug her.
"Bingyue, I miss you so much. Where is mother? Is she resting in the house?"
Shui Bingyue reached out and patted Xiao Qi on the shoulder: "Brother Qi, you are hugging me too tightly. Please let me down. My mother is still in the county and has not come back. My eldest brother is too busy, and my eldest sister-in-law cannot take care of Bokang alone."
The fourth child, the fifth child and the sixth child all went to clean themselves up first. After all, my sister likes to be clean. Besides, it was time to start dinner soon.
Shui Jianshe cleaned his hands, changed into clean clothes, walked up to Xiao Qi, and held his sister directly into his arms: "Xiao Qi, go and wash up quickly. It's time to eat in a while. I smell like sweat, so I'm not afraid of being smoked." Holding my sister."
Xiao Qi couldn't refute, so she had to go and wash up.
Xiaowu and Xiaoliu helped their father put the dishes on the table. After the family sat down, they started eating. The four brothers ate quickly after a day of farm work. After all, they were really tired and hungry.
Shui Bingyue felt distressed when she saw it. Farming was really hard. Otherwise, not everyone would want to change their destiny through reading.
After dinner, the brothers and sisters were all in their parents' house. Shui Bingyue took out a pack of fruit candies from her luggage bag and distributed them to her four brothers.
"Fourth brother, fifth brother, sixth brother, seventh brother, eat candy. The eldest brother bought this."
The four of them only took two pills from the bag, and the fourth child said: "Put away the rest of Bingyue yourself. Do you want to sleep with the fourth brother today?"
"No, I want to accompany dad today. Brothers, it's been a tiring day, so go to bed early."
The four of them went out. Shui Shangqing, who came back from the bath, happily put his daughter on the kang and helped her untie the two pigtails.
"Dad, has Third Brother written back?"
"In one letter, he said that he would have to undergo rigorous training for one and a half months. Those who failed to pass the test would still be dismissed. Once they passed the test, they would have to undergo flight training for one and a half to two years.
Although it takes a long time, as long as you can work, you can earn 500 yuan a month. But there is basically no time to rest, and I may not be able to write back frequently in the future. "
Shui Bingyue sighed softly: "It's not easy to do anything. But one month's salary is equivalent to a year's salary, which is indeed very generous."
The third brother has not come back for so long, so he was left behind. It's easy to get worried when there's no contact.
Shui Jianjun, whom the two were discussing, had indeed successfully passed the preliminary entrance examination. Only thirty-five of the one hundred people selected from across the country remained.
Here, he saw an airplane for the first time, heard the huge roar, and felt that human beings are really great, being able to allow such a big guy to fly into the sky and go where he wants to go.
Every day's courses are full, including theoretical knowledge, simulated operations, experience of flying, and physical training, none of which is missing.
The daily diet is proportioned according to personal weight, and you cannot eat too much. Fortunately, Shui Jianjun is not a person with a big appetite, so he adapts well to everything.
Because he had few opportunities to write letters, he wrote down his daily mood in a diary. When he could send a letter, he would directly copy the interesting things in the diary to his family.
When Shui Jianguo got off work in the county town, he still habitually called his sister first. Liu Xuemei came back and said with a smile: "Bingyue has gone back to the village with your father."
"I'm really not used to it. After all, I used to see my sister every day."
"You got off work late today."
"The factory has heavy tasks, and sometimes our technicians have to help other departments."
After all, in this era, in addition to different wage levels, the factory director also has to leave the workshop when work needs to be rushed.
Shui Jianguo ate the food his mother had warmed in the pot, cleaned up briefly and returned to his room.
Seeing the extra things in the house, Bai Lu asked: "Where do these things come from?"
"Some of them were given by neighbors and some were given by my brothers. Wang Caixia gave Bokang two packs of milk powder, and the other educated youth asked Cao Yuxi to send red envelopes."
"I didn't expect that we didn't plan to hold a full-moon banquet for our children, and so many people came to visit. We must remember this sentiment and return it sooner or later." Shui Jianguo lives in the county seat and knows this very well.
Bai Lu nodded: "Don't worry, I know what's going on. Don't you think it's not so noisy in the yard recently?"
"Yes, it is indeed much quieter than before. This way it won't scare Bo Kang."
The two chatted with each other sweetly. Liu Xuemei was lying on the bed alone, missing her daughter.
After all, she is such a small person, she can chat with you about anything, and sometimes she even makes people happy in a roundabout way.
Although the eldest grandson is also very cute, he still doesn't know how to chat with others. It changes every day.
Soon, the busy farming season was over, and Shui Shangqing took his four sons and daughter to the mountains to hunt.
After all, we only have vegetarian dishes such as dried vegetables left at home, so we need to add some meatiness. There are many people in the village who can hunt. The Shui family all tried their best to go as far into the mountains as possible.
We walked through a dense forest and reached the bottom of a valley. There were many wild fruits here. The wild grapes were tall and very attractive.
Shui Jianshe picked a bunch, washed them in a nearby stream, and tasted them separately for everyone. They all said they were very sweet.
Because there was a creek, we didn't see any big prey for the time being, so the brothers went down to the creek to fish. After all, it was almost noon, so it was not interesting to just eat the pancakes and dried meat they brought with them.
The fish in the stream are not big, but very fresh. Several people worked together and set up a fire to grill fish.
He is the best at water construction, and he also carries barbecue seasonings. Shui Shangqing went to look further afield to see what other animals he could find.
When the smell of fish wafted out, a small wild boar was attracted. It looks like it weighs forty or fifty kilograms, and it is drooling across the stream.
Xiao Wu took off the bow and arrow from his back and shot the little wild boar in the head, killing him with one hit.
Several other people applauded him: "Fifth brother is so great."
After all, everyone else's attention was attracted by the food, and only Xiao Wu made a judgment. He crossed the stream and dragged the little wild boar over.
Take off your own arrow. This kind of thing is precious and made of iron. You can't throw it away, otherwise it will be difficult to match it.
