"Mom, this jade pendant was given to me by a classmate of mine. I heard that it was blessed by an eminent monk from Nanyue Mountain. It is particularly useful for improving physical fitness. Please try it with it!"
Xiao Yun took the crystal clear cyan jade pendant doubtfully and asked: "This should be very expensive, right? How can a child like you ask for such an expensive gift?"
There was a trace of reproach in his tone. Liu Hai's family didn't even have a decent electrical appliance, let alone any jade and jewelry. In rural areas, if you accept gifts from others, sooner or later you have to repay them.
"It's not expensive. He and I have a very good relationship. This is my classmate who went to Nanyue Mountain to burn incense. When he asked for it himself, he also asked for one for each of our close classmates!"
In order not to worry her mother, Liu Hai made a small gesture of kindness.
"Then wear it yourself, Xiaohai. You must get along well with your classmates in school, you know? The college entrance examination will be in less than half a month, cherish the time now." Although Xiao Yun is a rural woman, she also understands many truths.
He is a man who looks after his husband and raises his children, and is highly praised by others in the village!
"I know, Mom, put it on quickly, I heard it works very well! I'm in such good health, I don't need this thing at all! How about you wear it for a while first, and then put it on your son?"
Liu Hai stretched out his hand to help his mother put on the jade pendant carefully. After Xiao Yun put it on tightly, Liu Hai breathed a sigh of relief. His mother's health has always been a problem on his mind. If this magical jade pendant can really help his mother improve,
The body, the bangs can be regarded as letting go of a big stone in my heart!
Time passes day by day, and the years always pass by casually in the ordinary.
Soon, Liu Hai entered the examination room of the college entrance examination!
It seems that every year the college entrance examination is rainy and rainy. The college entrance examination at the end of this year is no exception, and it rains harder than in previous years! For three days in a row, until after the college entrance examination is over, it still rains heavily!
Liu Hai finished the last subject and walked out of the examination room. He looked at the dark sky with a gloomy face. The heavy rain was still falling, and there seemed to be no sign of stopping!
Liu Hai hurriedly opened his umbrella and hurried to the dormitory. He secretly blamed God in his heart - why does it keep raining?
Fortunately, Liu Hai's examination room was in the No. 2 Middle School. His school was close to his dormitory, so he walked into the dormitory in the rain a few minutes later.
"Brown, I have something to do at home and I have to rush back. Please ask Teacher He for a leave of absence for me and tell me that I will not attend the class meeting tonight. I will definitely attend the farewell party after the scores come out!"
Li Brown was also packing his luggage. He was stunned when he heard this and asked in surprise: "What's wrong? What's going on at your home? It's already five o'clock and you have to rush back? When you get to town, you will definitely not come back to you."
The village shuttle bus is here!”
Liu Hai anxiously packed his luggage and replied: "It's raining so hard, I want to go back and have a look. When I get to the town, if there is no car, I will put my luggage at your house and walk back by myself!"
Li Brown was silent. The rural people were looking forward to rain, but they were also afraid that the heavy rain would not stop.
After a moment of silence, he looked at his bangs and said in a deep voice: "Okay! Brother, please be careful on the road. If you don't have a car when you get to town, go to my house and get a raincoat from my house."
Liu Hai raised his head and saw Li Brown's concerned eyes. He suddenly felt warm in his heart and said seriously: "Brother, don't worry!"
Surprisingly, neither brother talked about the college entrance examination.
Fortunately, when Liu Hai arrived in the town by car, he met the village chief Liu San driving a hand tractor to do errands in the town.
It was extremely difficult to drive a hand-held tractor on the muddy road! It was still raining non-stop. Although Liu Hai was anxious to go home, he had no choice but to sit back and chat with Liu San wordlessly.
"Haier, I heard how did you do in the college entrance examination these days?" Liu San spoke an authentic local dialect with a thick nasal accent.
"Uncle San, you did well in the exam, but we won't know how it went until the scores come out. By the way, Uncle San, it's been raining heavily for so many days, how is the village?"
Liu San's face darkened when he heard this, and he shook his head, which made Liu Hai's heart sink!
"Oh, it rained so heavily, and the village suffered heavy losses! Fortunately, the food was harvested not long ago. It was just vegetables and medicinal materials in the fields, but the losses were huge!"
"How is the house?" Liu Hai asked the question he was most worried about.
"The situation of the houses is actually a little better. In recent years, most people in the village have built red brick houses, and there are fewer mud houses. So far, I haven't heard of anyone's house having a corner collapsed." Liu San supported him while supporting him.
The tractor shook his head back.
After hearing this, Liu Hai was happy at the same time, but at the same time his expression darkened a lot. Happily, since there were no reports of problems with anyone's house in the village, his own house should also be fine. Sadly, his own house was.
The earthen house that Liu Sankou mentioned was a house made of loess. It was very old, and what he feared most was the continuous rainy days!
A tractor was swaying on the muddy road, smoking.
The green mountains were shrouded in mist and rain, and their layers stretched to very far away places.
It was quiet all around, with only the sound of rain hitting leaves, weeds, and the occasional few people wearing raincoats walking quickly in the countryside.
The beautiful scenery is slightly sad, which makes Liu Hai feel more melancholy!
The flying flowers are as light as dreams, and the boundless rain is as thin as sorrow.
Liu Hai's family, Liu Qinglin and Xiao Yun's couple are busy catching the rain. Although the continuous heavy rain may cause major problems in the adobe house, the roof has been leaking since the second day of rain. Everything in the house has been leaking.
Bottles and cans were cleaned out and placed in leaky areas to catch the rain. Liu Qinglin basically had to clean them every few hours and pour out the full water, otherwise the house would have become a vast ocean.
"Dad, is Hai'er supposed to have finished the exam now?" Xiao Yun asked in a low voice while pouring away the rainwater in the basin, with a hint of hope on her face. Now Liu Hai's academic performance has become her pride.
Yes! Even his uncle said that Xiaohai has no problem getting into college! It just depends on which university he can get into!
"The exam should be over, it's already dark." Liu Qinglin was also full of hope, looked at the sky outside, and replied.
"I think when the rain stops this time, I'd better buy a few hundred blue tiles and renovate the roof." Liu Qinglin looked up at the roof dripping with rainwater and said with difficulty.
"Alas - although Xiaohai University has his uncle to borrow tuition fees, it still needs living expenses. How can this little money at home be enough? I originally hoped that the yellow flowers in the field could still be sold at a good price, but now I have been hit by this rain. Alas.
————" Xiao Yun's voice became softer and quieter, and finally her voice gradually disappeared.
While the house was quiet, there was a sudden noise in the yard.
"Dad, go and see who is here at this time?"
However, just when Liu Qinglin was about to go out to see who was visiting, a voice that was familiar to both of them suddenly came.
