Chu Mingqiu stood up and stretched. He played for a whole afternoon this afternoon, and this Sunday will be spent like this. Zhuang Jingyi packed her things, and Chu Mingqiu looked at her quietly. Now Zhuang Jingyi's clothes have changed, and she has become more like a working person. The earrings hanging from her ears have been removed. There is no more light pink on her face, let alone eyebrows. The bracelet on Hao's wrist has also disappeared, and the high heels on her feet have disappeared. She changed into flat-heeled cloth shoes, and her originally slightly curved waves have now turned into straight, ear-length hair. But, this still cannot hide it, she is still as beautiful as a flower despite the beauty of the sky and the country. "You have to pay attention and practice more. You have to read the book I gave you, Piano Techniques, carefully. You can understand English." Zhuang Jingyi said to Chu Mingqiu as she walked. When she arrived at the gate of the courtyard, she met someone who came in. Juanzi, Gu Gao, and Zhuang Jingyi stopped and said to Chu Mingqiu: "Your friend is here and I'm leaving." "Teacher, go back after dinner." "That won't work. If you can't see me during dinner, There are so many people who can¡¯t eat, so you can¡¯t worry about it.¡± Chu Mingqiu rolled his eyes and said, ¡°Teacher, your style is really high, even higher than that of Lei Feng Pagoda.¡± Chu Mingqiu spoke quickly and almost lost his temper. Lei Feng was told. At this time, he was still serving in obscurity, sending the old lady home. It would take several years before he became famous throughout the country. Zhuang Jingyi shook her head slightly. She was used to Chu Mingqiu's nonsense and had immunity. Patting Chu Mingqiu's little head, Shi Shiran left the Chu Mansion, saying hello to Manager Xiao Zhao a few times on the way. ¡°Gou Sheng, did you play it wrong?¡± Seeing Zhuang Jingyi¡¯s presence, Juanzi summoned up the courage to ask in a low voice. "That's right, you don't understand this yet. In a few years, you will understand. If you want to play the piano, you don't have time today. It's almost time to have dinner. Your sister will come and scream again later. Go home. Your mother doesn't scold her. "Juanzi's family status is relatively low. Chu Mingqiu feels that anyone in her family can yell at her, including her sister and her brother. Juanzi doesn't dare to say anything every time. Just like the little daughter-in-law in a bloody drama. Several times, Juanzi was so absorbed in playing the piano here that she forgot the time to go home. Jingzi came to find her and scolded her, which made Chu Mingqiu angry and ridiculed Jingzi. Jingzi didn't dare to act like this again, but Chu Mingqiu didn't know whether it was good or bad for Juanzi. Chu Mingqiu¡¯s tone was loud, but Juanzi seemed to take it for granted and said nothing more. She reluctantly looked at the piano room before turning around and going out. Gu Gao had no intention of going back to that home, as there was a lot of commotion at home. "Why did you think of me today?" Chu Mingqiu did not take Gu Gao into the house. He moved his body while walking, and walked towards the Baicao Garden with Gu Gao. Gu Gao did not answer, but just lowered his head and followed him. Chu Mingqiu was still saying: "Hey, I heard that your father is back. I have long wanted to pay him a visit. Whenever I have time, I can introduce you to him." "You Dad, I have heard that my teacher said that he is a very knowledgeable man. Lamb, you are lucky to have such a dad" Before Gu Zhen came back, Chu Mingqiu asked Bao Demao. However, it was unexpected that Bao Demao, who always thought highly of himself, admired this man very much and said that he was knowledgeable and proud. This evaluation shocked Chu Mingqiu. It was the highest evaluation he knew of this wine fraudster. This gave him a strong desire to meet Gu Zhen. As he was talking, Chu Mingqiu suddenly felt something was wrong. When he looked back, Gu Gao was already standing there, not following him at all, looking at him stupidly. "Hey, hey, what are you doing? Don't you dare? I complimented your dad a few times, but it scared you." "Imy dad has become a rightist." Gu Gao said this carefully and timidly, but To his surprise, Chu Mingqiu didn't care at all, as if he didn't know what this rightist was about. Instead, he looked at him with some surprise: "So what?" "But, but, now it's all over. They say the rightists are bad people and want to overthrow our party's regime," Gu Gao said. This kind of statement is noisy in the world. With the increase of propaganda, it seems that the rightists are like Gray Taro, who spend all day thinking about how to catch the little sheep of New China; otherwise, they are extremely evil and are even more hypocritical than Yue Buqun. Ouyang Feng is still cruel, and New China is like a kind little devil who is always bullied. "Lamb, lamb, you blind little lamb, you believe whatever others say, do you have any brains? What's wrong with the rightists? My mother is a rightist, my eldest brother is also a rightist, Juanzi's father heard that he will also become a rightist Rightists, what's the big deal? You're just a little lamb, so don't get involved. Eat, eat, drink. " Gu Gao's face turned red, Chu Mingqiu said. It seems that his mother and eldest brother have becomePie didn't care, just like wearing a hat when it's cold. "But" Gu Gao hesitated and didn't know what to say. Chu Mingqiu interrupted him: "But what's the matter? It's up to them to handle their affairs. It's not our turn to worry about it." Even so, Chu Mingqiu still feels uneasy in her heart. The only memory in her mind is that of the Cultural Revolution, when she went to the countryside to become an educated youth and suffered some discrimination and punishment. He jumps up and down and rushes around, just to make the people around him suffer less. Chu Mingqiu put his arm around Gu Gao's shoulders, and they walked into the Baicao Garden, arm in arm. Gouzi was teasing Jiji in the Baicao Garden. Jiji was the son of Leopard in Gouzi's family. Leopard gave birth to a bunch of children. During the National Day, Gouzi's parents sent the child here, but Gouzi was so happy that he played with the little yellow dog every day. Chu Mingqiu also likes this little yellow dog. Not only him, but other children in the courtyard also like this little thing. However, except for letting Chu Mingqiu play with the dog, he is not allowed to touch it. Even if he goes to school, he will not touch it. Ji handed it to Manager Xiao Zhao to watch for him. With Jiji, Chu Mingqiu noticed that there were very few families raising dogs in this era. At least he didn't see any in the nearby alleys. He was a little puzzled. Manager Xiao Zhao's words answered his doubts. . "Except for our Chu family, who has extra food to raise dogs?" When Manager Xiao Zhao said this, he was feeding Jiji with a basin full of rice cooked in lard, his tone full of pride. Chu Mingqiu¡¯s act of collecting grain has caused uneasiness in the family. More than half of the small warehouse has been occupied. Huaihua¡¯s sister-in-law is still delivering food every week, but Chu Mingqiu still collects it as ordered. Manager Xiao Zhao couldn't bear it anymore and asked him what he was doing with so much food. Chu Mingqiu joked that he had food in his hands and didn't panic. This was because he was well prepared. However, Chu Mingqiu still made adjustments and directed Xiong Zhang and Wang Shu to go through the warehouse, turn the old grains over, take some and give them to the two of them, and then give another part to Chen Shaoyong and Hu Zi, and so on. , I didn¡¯t go much, the main expense was Manager Xiao Zhao. Manager Xiao Zhao took some grain to make chicken feed and fish feed. The fish in the pond at home grew like bubbles. The big ones weighed three or four pounds, and the small ones weighed one or two pounds. The number of chickens they raise has also expanded, from three to more than ten. Their howls can be heard every morning, and they can also bring seven or eight eggs every day. After putting away the old grain, he stepped up to collect new grain. After this year¡¯s autumn grain came on the market, he harvested several hundred more kilograms. He also planned to wait for winter wheat to come on the market and buy more to supplement the consumption of old grain. Chu Mingqiu¡¯s goal is not big. It is enough to keep seven or eight hundred kilograms of grain in stock at home. If you can¡¯t eat more, it will be a waste. It was almost the end of the year, and Chen Huaihua came to report again, saying that the pigs she raised were already 130 to 40 kilograms. When asked when they would be delivered, Chu Mingqiu did not ask her to deliver them now, and asked her to deliver them before the Spring Festival. Chu Mingqiu squatted in front of Jiji and stretched out his hand. Jiji came over happily, and his little tongue flexibly touched the palm of his hand. Then he looked up and was a little confused, why was it not as delicious as before. "Woof, woof," Jiji called out twice. Chu Mingqiu picked him up and patted his little head: "You little thing is so dirty again. Just like your brother, you are a little kid." "Naughty." Gu Gao laughed, as if Gouzi was not used to being clean, and there was always ashes on his body from nowhere; Gouzi was not ashamed at all, and still looked at Chu Mingqiu teasing Jiji with a smile. Gu Gao looked envious and reached out to touch Jiji's head. Jiji tilted her head and grinned at him. He quickly withdrew his hand. Chu Mingqiu turned to him and said, "Don't be afraid, he doesn't bite. Even if it bites, it¡¯s nothing. It¡¯s been vaccinated.¡± Chu Mingqiu got the vaccine. No one else in the family had any idea about it, especially the dog. He didn¡¯t understand why the dog should be vaccinated. Leopard. I have never been vaccinated in the mountains, so it is not as good as before. But Chu Mingqiu had made up his mind, and he could only follow obediently. He came to the epidemic prevention station and saw many people going to vaccinate dogs, and then he understood. Gu Gao touched his body and found it was empty. When he was in Shanghai, his grandparents had cats at home. He and his sisters also liked them, but cats didn¡¯t have so much trouble and could play with anyone. "Yes, yes, that's it." Jiji successfully raised her two front paws, although it only lasted a few seconds. Chu Mingqiu was so happy that she raised it high and shouted excitedly. The dog is even more surprised. It turns out that dogs can still do such actions, but leopards never do it. At most, they will pounce on you, stick out their red tongues, and try to please you. Seeing the children having a great time, Mr. Zhao was very happy. He turned to the Sixth Master and said, "Young Master is just like you back then, with many friends." The Sixth Master chuckled twice and said nothing. . At night, Mr. Liu faced ZhengYue Xiuxiu, who was washing her feet, said, "This kid Mingqiu has a good heart and can make friends." Yue Xiuxiu looked up at him. Master Liu's tone didn't seem to be a compliment, but contained regret. She asked with some confusion: "What's going on? Isn't it bad?" "He has learned to gain, but he has not learned to let go." Yue Xiuxiu wanted to ask again, but Master Liu turned his face away.
