, recommendation vote)
"Grandpa, daddy is setting off fireworks." Mengmeng shouted loudly as soon as she entered the door, for fear that grandpa would not be able to hear it because he was too old.
"Fireworks?" Cao Zhenghu was sitting in the living room, looking at his great-granddaughter, and asked her: "Mengmeng, come here and tell me what kind of fireworks your father wants to set off?"
"There are so many fireworks." Mengmeng's eyes widened and she opened her hands. The expression on her face was exaggerated: "Bang! Bang! Bang!"
She said: "Grandpa, daddy said Hei Tian will let go."
"It's tonight, let's rest for a while and then watch again in the evening, Mengmeng, do you agree?" Cao Zhenghu asked her.
Who knew that as soon as Cao Zhenghu finished speaking, Mengmeng shook her head vigorously: "Grandpa, it's not good."
"Why is it bad?" Cao Zhenghu wondered.
Mengmeng said: "I went to bed and you secretly set off fireworks and then they were gone. It's not good."
"-_-||" Cao Shujie was speechless towards his daughter. He thought, couldn't this little girl be more sunny?
Can there still be some basic trust between father and daughter?
Mengmeng's obsession is indeed very strong. When it was time to eat dinner, she was so sleepy that she kept kowtowing, but she wouldn't sleep because she had to see her father set off fireworks.
As soon as it got dark, Wang Yuelan couldn't stand it anymore and said to her son Cao Shujie: "Shujie, go and set off the fireworks quickly. Come back for dinner after the fireworks are finished, so that Mengmeng can go to bed quickly."
After hearing what her grandma said, Mengmeng suddenly woke up. She looked around with her eyes wide open, but she didn't see anything.
She asked: "Grandma, where are the fireworks?"
"Your father hasn't set off the fireworks yet. I'll ask him to take you to the mountain to light the fireworks now. After the fireworks are done, you can come back quickly to eat and sleep, okay?" Wang Yuelan discussed with her.
Mengmeng smiled hard and nodded: "Grandma, okay."
Cheng Xiaolin felt that it was really troublesome for her daughter to be unable to discuss matters sometimes.
When he went out, Cao Shujie checked his cell phone again, but no one called him.
Cheng Xiaolin asked him: "Shujie, do you have anything else to do?"
"Didn't Uncle Gen's brothers say they would come to deliver the meat after they finish their work in the evening? They haven't decided whether it will be tonight or tomorrow night?" Cao Shujie said.
Cheng Xiaolin also remembered this incident and asked him: "What should we do? Why don't you call Uncle Gen and ask them to come back tomorrow night, so that they don't have to wait if we don't come back?"
With."
Wang Yuelan and Cao Jianguo were a little confused. Cao Jianguo asked them: "Shujie, what kind of meat did you buy?"
"Dad, it's just the New Year's goods. It's so big for the New Year. What can I do if it lacks meat?" Cao Shujie said confidently.
He said: "I bought half a fan of grain-fed pork, 50 kilograms of beef, and 20 kilograms of mutton from Uncle Gen. It was a bit much. He didn't have enough supply on the market, so I asked him to deliver it directly to us when he had time.
Come home."
After hearing this, Cao Jianguo didn't know what to say about his son.
But no matter what he said, his son had indeed made money since he came back. Even though he was no longer as reckless as before, he didn't care how his son spent the money: "How about I call your Uncle Gen and say something?"
"Dad, forget it, let's go to the parking platform on the mountain to set off fireworks anyway. It's not very far. If they come, I'll come back as soon as possible." Cao Shujie said.
Cao Jianguo did not object and said, "Okay, that's it."
Thinking of taking grandpa up there to have a look, Cao Shujie drove his car over directly and the family got on the bus. Cao Jianguo, the last one who was about to get on the bus, realized that there was no room for him.
"Shujie, you go up first, I will ride up on an electric tricycle." Cao Jianguo said.
Grandpa is sitting in the passenger seat, his mother Wang Yuelan, sister Cao Huifang, and his wife Cheng Xiaolin are in the back seat. Mengmeng is lying in her mother's arms, holding on to her mother's clothes with her small hands, and she has to guard against her aunt.
A sudden attack to rob her.
Mengmeng feels that she is really tired now!
Coming up from the foot of the mountain, there is a slope of more than 400 meters. Cao Shujie only needs to press the accelerator when driving.
The buzzing sound of the Buick LaCrosse engine was heard very clearly at night, and the 50 cows in the orchard on the mountain were startled and began to moo for a while.
After Cao Shujie pulled the car over and parked it, he quickly ran to the passenger side, opened the door and helped his grandfather out.
But before he could hold himself steady, his grandfather slapped him away: "Why are you running so fast when I'm not old enough to use a cane? You're just playing." Cao Zhenghu said to him.
Cao Shujie was a little embarrassed, so he ran to his wife's side, opened the car door from the outside, and took his daughter out first.
"Dad, let it go quickly." Mengmeng shouted anxiously as soon as she came out.
Grandpa Cao Zhenghu was strolling aside, thinking of going to the orchard to see what was going on.
But now in the middle of winter, all the leaves on the fruit trees have fallen off, so there is really nothing to see.
Cao Jianguo came up not long after. After he came, he stopped the electric tricycle and ran over: "Shujie, have you taken out the fireworks?"
"Take it out, Dad, go and turn on the light." Cao Shujie arranged ten square fireworks in a row. He could not see the fuses.
When Cao Jianguo heard this, he said to him: "If you turn on the lights, you will still be watching useless fireworks."
After saying that, Cao Jianguo turned around and went to look for a flashlight on the electric tricycle.
"Jianguo, Shujie, can you two do it? If not, let me do some." Cao Zhenghu watched his youngest son and grandson lighting up fireworks and being so annoyed. He was anxious, not to mention Meng Meng who was always urging people on.
Already.
"Dad, hurry up, I can't wait any longer." Mengmeng, who was dressed like a koala, jumped hard and shouted.
"Honey, watch out for Mengmeng, don't let her run over." Cao Shujie held a windproof lighter in his hand and was about to light the fuse, but out of the corner of his eye, he noticed his daughter running over again.
That's okay, something big will happen later.
"Mengmeng, come here!" Cheng Xiaolin was also angry. Why was Mengmeng so ignorant this time?
She yelled, called Mengmeng to her side, then reached out and grabbed the clothes behind her neck, not daring to let go no matter what.
The fuse burned quickly at night, emitting an orange-red light, accompanied by a smell of gunpowder that spread in the wind.
Cheng Xiaolin hugged Mengmeng, and she and her mother-in-law Wang Yuelan subconsciously retreated about ten meters away.
Mengmeng was very unhappy. She shouted loudly: "Mom, I can't see anymore."
"If you can see it, if you go any further, I'll break your legs!" Cheng Xiaolin said with a straight face.
Mengmeng was so frightened by her mother's stern voice that she trembled all over and no longer dared to be naughty.
She stretched out her hands and hugged her mother's legs tightly, staring at her father without blinking, for fear of missing the most beautiful scene.
"boom!"
A dull explosion sounded, and then a red ball-shaped object was seen flying quickly into the air from below.
Because this is an orchard halfway up the mountain, the surroundings are very empty, and every move in the air can be seen clearly.
In less than a few seconds, the red ball in the sky exploded instantly, and colorful fireworks flew in all directions.
But it wasn't over yet. The next moment, crackling sounds continued high in the sky, and they exploded continuously.
"Wow, it's so beautiful!" Mengmeng saw that the sky was full of shining things, and her little face lit up with joy.
She thought it was too beautiful, she had never seen it before!
But this is not over yet. After the continuous "thunderbolt sound" in the air ended, the bright lights that seemed to have collided with each other exploded instantly. From point to surface, a bright light in the mid-air was instantly ignited.
This kind of light rays intersect and weave into a network in the sky, and it seems to be some kind of incomplete image.
Just when Cao Shujie and the others were watching carefully, they discovered that the fireworks strands in the air continued to emit, and finally formed a tree with a particularly large crown!
The tree lit up in the sky for more than ten seconds before it was completely wiped out.
Something fell from the sky with some sparks, but before it reached the ground, the sparks were extinguished.
"My God, it's so beautiful!" Her mother, Wang Yuelan, also exclaimed.
This is the first time in her life that she has watched fireworks at such a close distance in real life.
Cao Jianguo clicked on it a few times, but it was used for weddings during the day, and you couldn't see a very beautiful pattern when it was displayed. How can it be like now, in the dark night, the lighting effect is doubled!
Cao Zhenghu looked up at the extinguished fireworks in the sky with a smile. He whispered to himself: "Old lady, you saw it, the fireworks set off by our grandson Shujie are very beautiful."
The first firework is completely finished.
Mengmeng started shouting again: "Dad, hurry up, there are nine more!"
Her mother taught her math very well. She always plays simple addition and subtraction in games, so she no longer has to count with her fingers like she did when she was a child.
"Okay, I'll let him go now, but don't come over." Cao Shujie warned her.
Cheng Xiaolin and Wang Yuelan didn't dare to be careless. Each of them grabbed one of Mengmeng's hands to prevent her from running around. If something happened, it would be troublesome.
Not long after, the second firework exploded again, and a few seconds later, it began to bloom its most beautiful moment in the sky.
Such a firework can be set off for a little more than 3 minutes.
At this time, the folks in the north end of Caojiazhuang had already seen the fireworks set off in the sky.
They wondered, it was only a week before the Chinese New Year, who could be so wasteful and start lighting fireworks now?
But they thought so in their hearts, but it didn't stop them from quickly changing their clothes and riding or driving to the north to watch the fireworks.
Some people are afraid that the other party will finish setting off the fireworks before they even get there.
About seven minutes later, the first group of villagers who had just arrived had arrived at the foot of the mountain. Just as they were preparing to go up the mountain, the third fireworks began to bloom high in the sky.
At this time, the first batch of arriving villagers were closer and felt deeper.
It's really beautiful!
"Who is setting off the fireworks up there? You have eaten enough to hold up, or you have made too much money?" Someone shouted from below.
His name is Cao Bing, and he is actually of the same generation as Cao Shujie, but he has been hanging out with his parents since he was a child and only came back during the Chinese New Year.
After returning to Caojiazhuang, he was wearing white and clean brand sportswear and brand-name basketball shoes on his feet, which made people think that his family was rich.
He was about to become the focus of many people, but who would have thought that tonight, the person setting off fireworks without even being seen, instantly became the new focus of everyone's attention.
When walking up from the foot of the mountain, Jia Bing still thought about having a few words with the fireworks displayer later.
But when they came to the parking platform from the foot of the mountain, the fourth firework was set off again.
At this time, several people were silent. They silently watched the fireworks rising into the sky, watching how they exploded from a point to a pattern composed of fireworks.
The closer they got, the more they could see the fireworks. They were so beautiful that they were speechless.
Instead, Cao Jianguo, Cao Zhenghu and the others heard the noise and looked towards the intersection going up the mountain. Only then did they realize that people were coming up one after another.
A closer look revealed that they were all people from the village. Cao Zhenghu and Cao Jianguo also knew why they came.
It is unrealistic to say that we can drive all these folks away.
Cao Jianguo came over to greet these people who had just arrived.
"Uncle Jianguo, it's you who are setting off the fireworks. They are so beautiful."
"Oh, isn't this Brother Jie? How much did you buy for the fireworks? You started setting them off so early."
When they set off the sixth fireworks, more and more people came to the mountain. After everyone came, they silently found a place to park their cars, and then gathered around to watch the fireworks in the sky.
At this time, no one spoke, as if the slightest sound destroyed this beautiful fireworks.
But Cao Shujie bought a total of 10 fireworks and lit them one by one. It took more than half an hour at most to finish.
"Brother Jie, keep playing, why don't you stop playing?" someone shouted from the crowd of onlookers.
Cao Shujie looked at the place where he was talking and said, "Is it Shubo? I bought a total of 10 fireworks and they were all set off just now."
"In two days, I'll go to the market to buy some more. Then I'll shout on the loudspeaker in advance and you can all come over and play, okay?"
Naturally, everyone agreed, and they all raised their thumbs towards Cao Shujie.
Mengmeng, the most important sponsor of tonight's fireworks, is really enjoying watching it.
She also yelled at her father to buy more and continue to put them away tomorrow.
"Mengmeng, you really feel sorry for me." Cao Shujie curled his lips and said.
Mengmeng smiled: "Dad..."
But before he finished speaking, Cao Shujie's cell phone rang. He took it out and saw that it was Li Jiagan's cell phone number.
He stopped nagging and quickly found a place with few people to connect: "Hey, is it Xiao Li?"
"Brother Jie, it's me." Li Xinwu's voice came from his father's mobile phone.
Cao Shujie asked him: "Brother, have you arrived at Caojiazhuang?"
"Yes, Brother Jie, I just saw someone in your village setting off fireworks on the mountain. It's so beautiful," Li Xinwu said with more admiration.
Cao Shujie really didn't expect to be praised 'face to face', and this feeling made him feel so good.
"Brother, I will go down from the mountain right away." Cao Shujie said.
After hanging up the phone, Cao Shujie said to his parents and wife: "The eldest brother of Uncle Gen's family is here to deliver meat to us. I have to go down and greet him."
"The fireworks are over, let's go down together." Wang Yuelan said.
They haven't eaten yet!
Go to bed first, get up tomorrow morning and continue writing!
