Chapter 135 Hiding under the quilt and crying secretly
Xia Chan knew that her brothers were reluctant to buy things, so she sent them to buy oil, salt, soy sauce and vinegar, while she went to the pastry counter and bought some chicken cakes, glutinous rice sticks, beef tongue cakes, etc., and they were very good. The winter hunting time is coming soon, and this year it's Jin Pengfei's turn. She also has to prepare food for her brother to take with her. After all, she will go there for more than half a month. How can she not be fully prepared?
After shopping, the five brothers and sisters went back.
He drove the tractor into the yard of the brigade leader's house and gave Aunt Lin a handful of fruit candies to share with the children. Aunt Lin sighed with a smile, "Their family's life is really getting better and better."
The captain said beside him, "As long as you work hard, life will get better and better."
Aunt Lin smiled and gave one fruit candy to each of the children, saving the rest for tomorrow. They couldn't eat it all at once.
Soon it was time for the production team to organize everyone to go hunting in the mountains. This year, many small families were separated, so there were more strong laborers to go hunting. The day before departure, Xia Chan packed up the hunting items for Jin Pengfei and took them into the mountains. something.
I packed a big bag full of them. I packed a backpack for Jin Pengyuan last year, but she felt that there were still too few things, so this year I packed more on the basis of last year, and also used an empty backpack to pack a few things. .
Xia Chan didn't feel flustered this time, which meant that nothing would happen to Jin Pengfei this time. Even if something happened, it wouldn't be a big problem, so there was no need to worry.
"Brother Pengfei, you must pay attention to safety and protect yourself. Try not to interfere with other people's affairs. Even if you have to interfere, you should do it while protecting yourself. After all, if something happens to you, other than us, others should be sad. I won't take any responsibility for you." Before going to bed at night, Xia Chan couldn't help but warn, "We are all waiting for you to come back at home."
Jin Pengfei rubbed Xia Chan's hair and said with a smile, "Don't worry, I will definitely come back well."
The next day, before dawn, Jin Pengfei carried his things and used a flashlight to go down the mountain to the grain drying field to gather.
Two days later, when Xia Qi came back from selling fish in the town, she put a thick stack of photos on the kang table.
"Did you get the photo?" Xia Chan excitedly took the photo out of the paper bag, pinched the edges carefully, and looked at it carefully. The brothers were so handsome that she almost became a nymphomaniac.
The second uncle and Xia Chan's fathers were both good-looking when they were young, so Xia Bin and Xia Qi looked very good, but the second uncle... went too far. He actually allowed his second wife to abuse his biological son. You know, this is his only son in this life.
Jin Pengfei and Jin Pengyuan are also good. Although they have long been vague about their father's appearance, a father who can give birth to such a child must have good looks.
Xia Chan distributed the photos to her brothers, and kept the rest in her hands, because she had space and could keep them for decades or hundreds of years without getting damaged.
The brothers were very happy when they got the photo. This must be the first time in their lives that they were photographed. In the first photo, the brothers and sister were wearing the same clothes, and they looked particularly warm and beautiful.
Xia Qi looked at the photo and returned it to Xia Chan, "Xiaochan, I'd better leave the photo to you for safekeeping! You are a scholar and you should know how to preserve it for a longer time. If you leave it here with us, it will probably be useless soon. .”
"Okay, I'll keep it then. Just ask me to take it when you want to see it." At this time, there was no plastic sealing technology for photos, so they couldn't be stored for long. Only a few people had glass on their desks, so they pressed the photos under the glass. , so that it can be saved for a longer time.
So what Xia Qi said was exactly what Xia Chan wanted, so she naturally agreed readily. After that, the brothers gave the photos to Xia Chan for safekeeping.
"It would be great if my parents could take pictures before, so that I wouldn't forget what my parents look like." Xia Bin suddenly said.
Everyone felt bad after hearing this, because they had almost forgotten what their parents looked like.
Xia Qi's mother passed away when she was a child. It has been more than ten years. How can she still remember what her mother looked like?
And Jin Pengfei and Jin Pengyuan, their father passed away when they were just a few years old. It’s not that they are unfilial and have forgotten what their parents looked like, but it’s just that as time goes by, they really can’t remember it. It’s not that they can remember it even if they want to. Live.
Xia Chan didn't know what to say to make them happy, so she had to say, "From now on, we will take pictures every few years or every year to record our changes every year, so that we will not forget everyone's appearance in the future."
To be honest, Xia Chan herself doesn’t remember what her father looks like. After all, it’s been a few years since he passed away, and she is different from others. She has a lot of things in her mind. Sometimes she can’t even remember what happened in the past few days. , not to mention something so long ago.
"Yes, we can take photos often in the future. It doesn't cost much to take one or two photos." Xia Bin said.
Xia Chan saw that his eyes were red and knew that he felt uncomfortable. After all, who doesn't want their parents to be around? Especially since their parents are pretty good people, not the kind of eccentric and top-notch parents they are.
Children will miss their eccentric and excellent parents when they pass away, not to mention their parents are still such good people.
Everyone was feeling a little heavy tonight, so Xia Chan didn't give them any lessons, but let them soak their feet and rest early. Fortunately, they were all grown up, otherwise they would probably have to hide under the quilt and cry secretly.
The next morning, everyone was back to business as usual.
After breakfast, Xia Qi took Jin Pengyuan out for hunting, but instead of going near the cave, they went to their parents' cemetery. They always hunted in one place. What if the species became extinct?
Xia Bin sat in a warm room, weaving lobster cages out of bamboo. When summer comes, he can put the cages in rivers or ponds, or in the swamps on the mountains, where there is water all year round and will never dry out. , there should be a lot of things in it.
But he didn't know that Xia Chan had already caught him in the swamp several times.
On a cold day, Xia Chan had nothing to do. She just sat at the kang table, drinking hot tea and reading a book. There were many courses in high school, and she had no one to guide her, so she could only rely on her own self-awareness. She would be able to get it in a few months after the new year. When she gets her high school diploma, no one can talk to her about her academic qualifications.
"What do you want to eat for lunch?" Xia Bin thought for a while and felt tired, so he sat next to Xia Chan to rest.
"Brother, just watch and do it!" Xia Chan raised her head and smiled brightly at Xia Bin.
Now there is meat and vegetables at home, and she can eat whatever she wants. She is not picky.
