In the afternoon at the end of May, there was no noisy chirping of cicadas. Under the scorching heat of the sun, farmers who rushed early in the morning and late in the evening were blowing fans at home. The village was peaceful and peaceful. Occasionally, a cool breeze blew, and the green plants were weak.

put.

The sound of the motorcycle engine broke the tranquility of the mountain village. Su Meng drove the motorcycle to the door and stopped. Su Xiaoting, wearing a pink helmet, wearing a short shirt and shorts and a pair of small sandals, walked behind, closed the courtyard door, turned over and climbed up

The back seat of a motorcycle.

"Hold on tight."

"Hold on tight."

After asking and answering, Su Meng looked down and saw the little girl's hands grabbing his clothes. He released the clutch and turned the accelerator, started the motorcycle and drove out of the village.

Although the sun is strong, the road from Shuangtang Village to the town is built along the river. There are many mountains and rivers. When the motorcycle starts driving, the wind blowing in the face is cool with water vapor, and the sun does not burn on the skin.

Feeling hot.

Their trip was to the town. Su Meng was going to buy glutinous rice and other ingredients for making rice dumplings, while Su Xiaoting made an appointment with her tablemate to go shopping in the town together today.

When passing by Qiqi's village, Su Meng picked up the little girl waiting at the entrance of the village. Amidst the chirping exchanges between the two little girls, they soon arrived at Weitou.

After parking the car and letting the two little girls get out of the car, Su Meng did not leave in a hurry to buy things, but asked Su Xiaoting again: "You really don't need me to wait for you?"

Last night, Su Xiaoting told him that she and her deskmate had made an appointment to go to the market together today. According to their plan, they would meet at the gate of the primary school first and then wait for the shuttle bus. However, Su Meng said that she also wanted to go to town to buy things. Su Xiaoting

Then I changed my mind and took him for a ride.

As for the return trip, because Su Xiaoting didn't know how long she would play, she didn't agree to come back with Su Meng, and she didn't need him to wait. Her reason was also very simple. When she thought of someone waiting, it was not pleasant to play, and she always felt that time

It seems very urgent.

"No, we can just take the shuttle bus back then." Su Xiaoting waved her hand carelessly.

Qiqi also said with a smile on her face: "Uncle, we can do it ourselves!"

"Okay then." Su Meng frowned and told them worriedly, "You must be vigilant and don't be deceived. If you are bullied or find something wrong, Xiaoting, just take Qiqi with you.

Go to Er Po’s shop, you know?”

"I know, let's go first!" After saying that, Su Xiaoting took Qiqi and walked into Wei City.

The fair day in Nanling Town is 369, and today is the 28th. It is not a fair day, and it is midday, so there are not many people in the fair city. Su Meng sat on the motorcycle with his feet on the ground and looked at

The two little girls holding hands suddenly sighed and smiled helplessly.

He was laughing at himself. When he was the same age as Su Xiaoting, not to mention hanging out with his friends, it was common for him to walk seven or eight kilometers alone in the middle of the night to go to the Internet cafe in the town to play games all night long.

He didn't feel scared at all, but now in broad daylight, he was worried because his daughter was shopping with her friends.

You must know that at that time, the public security and social atmosphere in Nanling Town were even worse than they are now. There were many bad guys, and sneaky robberies, drag racing, and fights were nothing new.

After all, now that you are a father, your role is different and your thoughts are naturally different.

However, he was not too worried. It was quite common in Nanling for seven or eight-year-old children to take advantage of the market by themselves. He often saw many children wandering around the market without adult supervision.

If adults can't control it, even if they lock their children at home, someone will climb down from the second floor along the sewer pipe. Of course, this is rare, but it's not unheard of. Children have feet on them, and if an adult turns around, the child will steal them.

It doesn't matter if you sneak out and get beaten or scolded. Let's play first and then talk about it. If you admit your mistake this time, you will dare to do it again next time.

Anyone like Su Xiaoting who can tell her family is considered sensible.

The voices of the two little girls disappeared around the corner. Su Meng withdrew his gaze and drove to the market. Another more important factor that made him so relieved was that there was no news about children being abducted in Nanling Town.

, but I have heard of it occasionally before buying a daughter-in-law.

Talking back to Su Xiaoting, this was actually the first time she came to the fair without an adult, so the little girl was a little excited.

"Qiqi, where are we going?" Su Xiaoting was not familiar with the road in front of her. Whether she came with Su Qinghe or Su Meng, she had never walked too deep on this short street.

.

"Go to a milk tea shop. It's such a sunny day. Let's go to the milk tea shop first to drink a cup of ice-cold sweet milk tea, blow in the air conditioning, and order French fries, chicken tenders, etc."

It was obviously not the first time for Qiqi to come here. She was familiar with the road. She pulled Su Xiaoting into a milk tea shop. It was the weekend and there were many people in the milk tea shop. Most of them were students. They were sitting in groups. Some

They were playing games, some were playing cards, it was very lively and noisy, and there were a lot of people smoking, which made Su Xiaoting feel a little uncomfortable entering this kind of place for the first time.

"Xiaoting, what do you want to drink? Just order it if you like it. This side is snacks. You can order whatever you want." Qiqi brought a menu, showed it to Su Xiaoting, turned it over to the other side, and then said

Say the most important sentence, "I invite you."

Su Xiaoting looked at it again and again. She knew all the words on the menu, but except for snacks such as grilled chicken wings and grilled leeks, she couldn't recognize the other snacks just by looking at the pictures. She didn't know whether they were delicious or not.

, the same is true for milk tea on the other side. She has drank milk and tea, but once the two words are combined, she has never drank them.

"You order, I'll drink whatever you drink, and I'll eat whatever you order." Su Xiaoting, who had no idea what to do, simply handed the menu to Qiqi.

Seeing this, Qiqi didn't hesitate and ordered her favorite mint milk green, as well as an order of French fries, two hot dogs, and a chicken popcorn.

“The mint milk green is super delicious, it tastes sweet and refreshing.”

Su Xiaoting was noncommittal. It didn't matter what she drank. She had never drank it before. They were all new things. When she saw Qiqi coming back from the counter, she asked: "Qiqi, do you come here often to drink this?"

"It's not that often. My mother will bring me here when she is at home. However, my grandfather won't let me drink this and will often scold my parents." As she spoke, Qiqi suddenly lowered her voice, "I'm telling you, I'll come out

Before, my grandpa told me not to drink milk tea, but when he gave me money, it was obviously too much. I don’t need that much money to buy books.”

Hearing the word "mom", Su Xiaoting's eyes flashed with sadness. She was a little envious of this little best friend at the same table. Although her academic performance was not that good, and although her parents were working outside and could not accompany her, her mother

I really love her, even if I get scolded, I will still take her to drink milk tea and have a happy time together.

As for me, I have forgotten what my mother looks like. Every time I think of her, there is only an outline in my mind, and her face is a mist.

But after hearing what she said next, she couldn't help laughing, "So your grandpa knew that you would definitely come to drink milk tea, so he paid more."

"Fortunately, he gave me more money, otherwise I wouldn't have money to drink milk tea." Qiqi looked happy, but she didn't have the courage to use the money to buy books to drink milk tea. In addition to being afraid of being beaten, she was also afraid that her grandpa would be disappointed. After all,

My academic performance has already disappointed the old man.

"I can treat you." Su Xiaoting put her hand on her trouser pocket. She also wanted to buy something this time and brought a lot of money.

"Please invite me next time." Qiqi said with a smile. Looking at Su Xiaoting's movements, she thought of Su Xiaoting's purpose this time, "By the way, have you thought about what birthday gift to buy for Guaiguai?"
