It's already early March, and the temperature in the Central Plains has fully warmed up. Squatting down on the mountain path, you can already find a hint of green in the withered yellow grass.
This time is the busiest season for the swallows in the courtyard of the Huang family bungalow. They pick up grass and mud and start repairing the nests. Some even stay and fly together to work together to rebuild their new homes.
The old man likes this season the most. At this time of year, in addition to being busy in the greenhouse, he has another job, which is to take out a chair, sit under the eaves, squint and smoke an old dry cigarette and watch the swallows build their nests.
And this year, he is in an especially good mood, because he has a companion behind him. Song Bing is very old, but compared with the old man, he is still a young man and a guard.
In previous years, when he saw swallows building their nests, whoever was serving tea would always be scolded. However, this year, when Song Bing served him clumsily, the old man didn't even curse him. It was a strange situation that hadn't happened in many years.
At this moment, Huang Doudou came back, squeezing the bus back in her school uniform. Her Honda CRZ sports car had been sold by the old man, and the price was second to none. The key point is that this little girl actually drove a Japanese car behind his back. It is absolutely unforgivable.
!
So the actual relationship between Huang Doudou and the old man is not harmonious recently.
"Grandpa, I want to transfer to another school!" So when Huang Doudou plucked up the courage to come forward and loudly raised his appeal, the old man acted as if he hadn't heard anything and continued to watch the swallow family building their nest.
"I want to transfer to Jiujing and take the college entrance examination there, grandpa!" Huang Doudou lowered her voice slightly when she saw that the old man was deliberately ignoring her.
Moreover, she has never called grandpa more than 20 times since she was a child. She only started to call him recently, and it was always when she wanted to ask the old man for something. She is definitely a typical casual person. The rest of the time, she still opens her mouth and the old man shuts up.
"Keep your voice down, the swallows scare you away. Do you think it's so easy for the swallows to fly to the river and pick up dirt?" The old man finally reacted, but in his eyes, her granddaughter was not as important as the little swallows who built their nests.
Huang Doudou was suddenly very angry. She suddenly rushed over and used the wall-climbing technique Tang Lin had just taught her. She hung on the window edge and reached the swallow's nest!
At this time, the old man finally couldn't sit still. "You bastard, this nest of swallows has been living at home for 11 years. You moved here when you were 7 years old! Get out of here, do you think these swallows can live in any house?"
Damn thing!"
But Song Bing next to him was dumbfounded and reminded him in a low voice, "The young lady is so handsome. I only remember that Wang Mazi from the third regiment could go to the house directly!"
The old man was startled, then reflected slightly, then looked up at Huang Doudou's posture hanging in mid-air, put his hands behind his back, "Okay, bastard, if you have the ability, just keep this posture for me for half an hour, and I will promise you."
The request! Don’t you just want to go to Jiujing with that brat Tang Lin? Don’t you just want to go to the high school of the General Logistics Department? It’s just a phone call from me!”
When Huang Doudou heard this, she was overjoyed and said, "Then bet, if you keep your word, I will bring you all the 17 swallows' nests in the yard!" But she was too happy and lost control of one arm, and her body was about to dodge in a blink of an eye.
After falling down, she unexpectedly straightened her waist, gritted her teeth, and climbed directly onto the eaves of the bungalow roof with her other hand!
If just now she relied on her own lightness and running to climb up, then now she has shown her true ability. The old man's heart tightened suddenly, and Old Song Bing had already run over to catch him.
But she's fine again!
"Huh...half an hour, Song Bing, you haven't given me a timer yet!" In fact, Huang Doudou regretted it a little now, because she had only hung on it for less than 2 minutes, but her arms had already begun to feel sore, and her palms were also swollen by the cement edges.
The scraping was painful. And for almost 30 minutes, I had to rely on my two hands to support the weight of my entire body. Although my two feet could also help with balance, the main pressure was still on my arms!
Old Song Bing was still worried. The bungalow was about 3.5 meters high. If it couldn't support it and fell upside down, it would be very dangerous. If it didn't work, someone would be killed.
So he took it upon himself to walk over and stretch out his arms, intending to use himself as a human cushion!
But the old man immediately yelled, "You son of a bitch, why won't this bastard thing fall and smash your old bones? If you son of a bitch dies, who will help me with three greenhouses? What can I eat and drink all year round? And what are you doing?"
Come back if you don't!"
But Old Song Bing refused, "Chief, what should I do if the young lady falls if I avoid it? Don't you feel bad if it breaks? Even if you shoot me, I will still have to continue here!"
Suddenly, there was a rush of footsteps at the door of the courtyard, and then a person rushed in, "Song Bing, please step back! If she falls down, it can only be regarded as her lack of skill and overestimation of her own abilities. She deserves to be killed if she falls!"
The person who came in was none other than Tang Lin. Tang Lin actually only arrived about 10 minutes later than Huang Doudou. Although Huang Doudou set off a long time before him, Huang Doudou didn't have a car and didn't dare to take a crowded rural bus back. Tang Lin
Lin was driving Li Hongjie's red Hummer, so he arrived so quickly!
When Old Song Bing saw Tang Lin coming, he immediately retreated, hiding behind the old man with his head down, not daring to say a word, waiting to be dealt with!
The old man saw Tang Lin laughing heartily, "Haha, you finally remember what I said!" Tang Lin came closer and gave a standard military salute, "Even if I had a hole in my head with a gun, I still wouldn't be able to remember what you said, old man!"
He is still the same size, and he seems to be much more carefree and comfortable than Huang Doudou in the current situation. Huang Doudou was hanging on the roof, competing. She really didn't have confidence at first, but the old man said that she agreed in 30 minutes as soon as her head got hot!
She originally had a little more hope when Tang Lin came, but she didn't expect that this bastard would actually vent his anger on the same team as the old man. Humph, okay, you two stinky men, I'll show you your strength today!
Half an hour was only half an hour, so she gritted her teeth and remained silent, her little face turned red from suppressing it, and her eyes could kill someone!
But Tang Lin didn't look at her at all, treating her as nothing. He didn't worry about it like Old Song Bing did and came to take over. Instead, he sat directly on the chair that Old Song Bing had just come out from, and started drinking tea and spanking with the old man.
"I have to give you a treat this afternoon, old man. I just bought a house in Zhongzhou City with a loan. I am so poor that I have to pay back the loan with my salary! By the way, old man, you don't have a vegetable garden in Jiujing.
Do you want a house or a greenhouse? If you tell me, I can save some living expenses!"
The old man raised his hand and took a sip of tea, then laughed and cursed, "You bastard are going to be trained and the government will not take care of food and accommodation? How much do you spend? Don't make fun of the old man. Believe it or not, the old man will give you a call and you won't be able to survive a day in Jiujing."
Go down?"
It's unheard of for the old man to understand humor!
