Chapter 21 Love Passbook

A violent and pungent smell of smoke brought Wang Gang from his dream to reality.

"Mom, you don't sleep most of the night, what are you doing! The room is full of smoke?"

"You open your eyes and see, it's already nine o'clock now! I don't know what you are doing in school. Can you make people so tired in one day? What can I do? I just touched the kang and it's not hot anymore. I'm burning the kang for you!"

"No! I just went to bed! Why is it dawn?"

Every year around October, it rains for a few days. The wheat that has just emerged urgently needs abundant rain. To prepare for the arrival of winter, everyone will burn the kang hot, and women's soles are used as insoles. Men are lying on the kang and watching TV. lazy people like Wang Gang usually sleep in the quilt, except for going to the toilet, and sleeping in the dark.

"Mom, let's discuss something. Don't open the door today. Can I sleep well for a day?"

"Okay! People stay at home when it rains. If they don't turn on, they won't turn on. If you take the toilet back, you will sleep until you close the holiday!"

"See what you said, I am not a patient, I can still send water and fire out!"

"The first snow in 2002 came later than before..."

Mom hurried back to the room and glared at him with some anger, "Are you sleeping on the kang, can't you hear the phone ringing?"

He knew it was definitely not his phone number, and he closed his eyes and felt weak, "That crazy man, if you don't go to bed so early, why call! Don't worry about it for a while, it won't ring!"

Mom took the phone to the kang, glared at the stove, "Assist the phone, ask what this lunatic is doing for you?"

Wang Jie turned his head and put the phone on his ear, "Hey! Who is it!"

The phone came again. The sound of nature that Wang Jie had always dreamed of was Liu Yan, a qh girl from Douli's dormitory. "Hello, King Kong, the god of war, why are you so fierce? Why am I crazy?"

"Hello, Dream Angel, can you tell me your online name in the future? Should I call you Liu Xia? I'm not fierce, but the phone is low. I'm afraid you can't hear it, so I'll speak louder! I don't know if you called it. I just dreamed that I was counting money, but I woke up by the phone and said casually!"

"My God! When is the time for you still asleep? Are you not eating for a day?"

"It's past nine o'clock! Have a meal, but I didn't eat today because I didn't get up. Mom cooks, who will I give it to?"

"Why didn't you call after the last time you made the phone call? Have you received the letter I wrote to you? Are you happy to take our dormitory?"

"With your boss here, how dare I? I just finished the military training yesterday, and I almost trained to death. I didn't have time to call you. Your letter may be where our class teacher has, because we are in a military management system, so I will ask if I have faked it."

"Why are you on National Day holiday? You are so happy!"

"The people of the whole country have a holiday, why don't you give me a holiday? Did you not have a holiday? Why didn't you go home?"

"We're on holiday, too, because we're far away from home, and the round trip fee is too expensive, we haven't gone back! It's boring, try not to go home."

"Oh, that's beautiful too! You can sleep in the dormitory every day, and the tiger is not at home and the monkey is dominating the king!"

Seeing her son sitting on the kang with his shirtless and making a phone call, afraid of getting sick, the mother deliberately shouted loudly, "Look at your promising little. As soon as she answered the call from a girl's baby, she didn't wear a quilt or put on her clothes, and you weren't afraid of catching a cold!"

"Hahaha, get into the bed quickly and don't freeze your mother's heart!"

At this time, a group of girls laughed from the other side of the phone, and the phone hung up! Wang Gang blushed into the quilt like a monkey's butt.

"I just said you're back, you're so hungry that your face is pale and thin! It turns out that the female classmates have called the money! When you were in middle school, you called this female classmates all day long, and that female classmates' phone number, and now it's starting again! The girl calls you, but you don't feel sorry if you don't pay, and you're holding the phone and walking around in your spare time. You think they run a bank!"

"Oh! Mom! I called me once and I got the money and had no money to eat! I made a long-distance international call! And everyone heard what you said, what do you want others to think of me! I'm so spicy!"

"Give you the steamed buns I just baked for you in the stove hall, and eat some first! Don't be hungry and you won't have the energy to answer the phone later!"

Looking at the yellow congcong's roasted buns, he remembered that he had to eat the "Ruochid buns" of other people's children. Because there was no sold in the town, his mother used the time of steaming buns to roll the noodles into strips and wrap them on them, and put them in the stove like candied haws until the whole "candied haws" turned yellow. At that time, she looked different from others and refused to eat them!

Finally, my mother said that this "candied haws" steamed bun tasted like sweet and sour, fragrant, and crispy as the roasted steamed bun! When he took a bite with half belief and half doubt, it was indeed delicious, really as my mother said. It turned out that my mother put salt in it! Chili peppers! Peppers! Turmeric and other seasonings in it, so it tasted very fragrant, but what Wang Jie was puzzled at the time was that he could not taste the sweet and sour taste! Until now, he was still happy!

Eating the steamed buns that my mother grilled carefully, savoring the wonderful sound on the phone just now, thinking about the delicious "spicy noodles" that my mother was making, he fell asleep with a smile! He was having a dream of being woken up by the phone again!

"Get up quickly and have a meal!"

"What's wrong? Did you call again?"

"The phone call hasn't come. The noodles you want to eat are steamed. Get up and wash your face quickly. The water has been poured. After eating, go to sleep!"

"Okay! Only mothers in the world are good!"

My mother is a real rural woman. When she heard her son say this, she glared at her son with a little embarrassed look. She quickly packed up the plate, unpacked the quilt and placed it on the kang, and sat on the side waiting for dinner together.

After washing his face, he was about to go to the kang. When he was waiting for his mother to eat, he found that his mother was sitting on the kang and waiting for him quietly. He was both distressed and moved and urged his mother to eat quickly. "Why don't you eat? What are you waiting for me?"

"It's okay, it's good to eat when there are too many people. Come up and have a meal. It's cold on the ground!"

The two sisters at home are already married, the father sells sweet potatoes in Xifeng, and the brother is in college, and he goes to Changqingqiao to go to school. Usually, his mother is left at home alone, and he feels sad.

When he ate a steamed bun and a bite of "spicy rice" (salt, flour, eggs, pepper powder, a small amount of steamed snack, which is also a home-cooked dish) and slowly enjoying the delicious food in the world, he suddenly found his mother sitting next to him, eating pickles. Suddenly, he seemed to have forgotten something, and walked off the kang and walked towards the stove. He asked in confusion, "It's so delicious, mom, why don't you eat, what are you doing?"

"You are delicious. I don't like eating eggs. When you go down, you will give you the "sauerkra" (the pork belly is cut into the size of a little finger, put it in the pot to produce oil, use a colander to remove it, sprinkle with pepper powder, stir a lot of pepper flour, stir evenly, cool it, place it in a small jar, dig a small spoon when hot steamed buns, which was used for tooth-beating sacrifices, because the meat was not eaten every meal at that time) and corn hazelnuts for you."

"Mom, you only have so many of us, so we can't finish it! I'm gone, you don't want to cook anymore, so keep it for yourself!"

My mother got on the kang, picked up the steamed buns that she had not finished eating, dipped them in the oil around the sauce plate, and watched her son break open the steamed buns while holding the sauce plate, and smiled happily.

"It's okay, I don't like to eat it, you can eat it quickly!"

"Mom, eat slowly, I'll eat enough. You don't like these two. Keep them for the future! It's sunny, what are you doing in the afternoon?"

"Why did you eat so much today? It's just sunny and you can't do anything rotten. If you come back to the sun, you will continue to sleep with you!"

"Hahaha, I've eaten it all the time, and it's overflowing when I'm eating it! I'll eat what's in the bowl quickly and it won't be delicious until tomorrow!"

In fact, Wang Gang was not satisfied with the food at all. It was just that he knew that he was not full, so his mother could not eat "noodle, spicy rice" and "sauce". Because her mother left the best for her children first, and she was only responsible for cleaning up the leftovers on the plate.

After working in the yard for about an hour, Wang Jie wondered why his mother didn't come out to bask in the sun. Sitting under the eaves was a pleasure. He was about to tell his mother about the latest school events. So he walked into the kitchen and found that everything had been packed up, but his mother fell asleep! He covered her with a quilt and thought that no matter how she could do anything inside, she leaned against her mother and fell asleep happily.

"Why are you still asleep? Get up and have dinner!"

"Mom, aren't you sleeping? When did you get up?" Wang

"After eating, I took a short look. I didn't do the work in the ground anymore and didn't dare to pack up some firewood. I'll sleep on the ice kang in winter!"

Looking at the several handfuls of sauce noodles on the chopping board, I asked my mother happily, "When did I roll the noodles? Why didn't I hear it?".

"When, when you sleep! You sleep like a pig, and you don't know how to thunder. What's so strange about this?"

For him, the noodles are another delicacy after the noodles. Because the production process is time-consuming and laborious, and as the pace of life continues to speed up, the wife of the post-80s generation can’t roll noodles for 80%.

"Come and eat it quickly. If the salt is light, add some more! I'll cook another dish for you!"

"Why do you want to stir-fry vegetables if you have sauerkraut? Stop stir-frying!"

Facing the fragrant and delicious noodles, he took a sip of Yuwangwang soup, and the spicy taste in his mouth was very good. He said, sucking a few times a bowl of chewy, soft and refreshing noodles, and then he saw the bottom.

Mom turned off the gas stove and said, "Come and try what I cook, or what you cook outside the canteen!"

"Hahaha, I know it just looks good, it's better than what is sold outside. Come on, I'll have a piece first!"

When he was eating a piece of spicy tofu in one mouthful, he suddenly found that his mother didn't eat, but poured yesterday's rubbing noodles back into the pot and hot. "Mom, hurry up and eat sauce noodles, rub it and keep it for me to eat it in the evening!"

"The weather is cold now, so I dare not eat cold ones! It will be no good when it is hot. You should eat noodles quickly, and I will give it to you after you finish!"

At this time, Wang Gang watched his mother holding the leftover noodles from yesterday. When he was eating so fragrant, Wang Jie's nose became sore and his eyes were red. He thought about a question. His mother said she didn't like to eat rubbish, but the leftovers were so fragrant! His mother said she didn't like to eat "sauerkraut". After she had enough, she ate the bowl and the plate clean! His mother now gave herself all the best, but she couldn't repay her at this moment!

"Mom, I'm full, what are you doing in the afternoon?"

"It's rotten in the ground. You can bask in the sun and continue to sleep with you!"

At this time, Wang Jie thought that the bad guys in the fields couldn't get in. When he went there, he was covered in mud and couldn't do much work! So he basked in the sun, thinking about what the QH girl looked like, and when she was drowsy, she continued to lie on the kang and fell asleep.

Hearing that it was fine in the afternoon, he went on a stroll along the road! But after a long time, there was not a single young man except for a few older uncles! So he was about to go back and continue to sleep, but as soon as he reached the gate, he found that his mother was struggling to pull a cart of corn stalks alone, so he quickly ran over to replace her mother.

"Mom, why don't you call me when you pull the corn stalk?"

While gasping for a hurry, my mother pushed the cart hard, "You will stay for a few days when you come back, eat and drink well all day. When the weather is clear, I will go to school. Have a good rest!"

"Haha, I'm not the county magistrate, I don't work when I go home. I'll let you pull corn stalks in the field alone, and eat on the kang by myself, and don't do it. Others won't scold me when they see it!"

"Hahaha, don't be afraid. Now that people come back, no one can laugh at anyone without working. You still don't do the work at home after you go to school? What should you do if your shoes get dirty?"

"It's okay, it's dirty and it's done when you wash it. You can't be afraid of wiping your mouth, so you don't eat anymore. Other people's affairs have nothing to do with me. When I'm not at home, you can't work alone in the field. I'm at home and you say you're sure to do it well."

"Can you eat enough at school? Why do you think you are getting darker and thinner this time than before?"

"Mom! I can eat enough and I'm full and I'm fried noodles every meal. This time I've come back this time and I've lost weight because I'm going to be in military training. I've been under the sun for nearly half a month. I've naturally lost weight after training for seven or eight hours a day. I'm very good at school. There are more than a dozen windows to buy rice every day, including cut noodles, beef ramen, stewed noodles from Huimin restaurants, fried noodles, and casseroles. You won't be hungry at all! You've also seen that we even had everything in the suitcase and bed sheets. The roots are not like in middle school. Every time I go to school, I'll hold a straw curtain to pass through the tide and a snakeskin bag to put mattresses and quilts, and you'll keep your heart in your stomach!"

"That's good. Don't fight with other people's babies when you go! You can no longer cause trouble all day like in middle school. You won't come and we don't dare to sleep every night."

"Don't worry, no one in the school dares to fight now. The most important thing is that we are now in semi-military management!"

"This time, you don't dare to come back! I heard others say that this school is very good! It will save me worry in one day!"

"Haha, you are really bitten by a snake once, and you have been afraid of the rope for ten years! Don't worry, I won't run back!"

"This is the best, at least I can have a safe sleep!"

The National Day holiday is about to end in a blink of an eye. When I left on the morning of the seventh, my mother packed a full bag of walnuts, hawthorns, apples and dates at home. When he got on the bus, my mother's eyes turned red because it took more than a month to meet this time! Wang Gang's eyes were burning immediately, and his nose was so sour and he walked up to the front of the bus without daring to go back!

Gradually, the vehicle walked out of the village. Looking at the green wheat seedlings outside the window and the stream where he caught loaches in the distant ravine, he finally smiled, because when he went home, not only did he eat the delicious food he wanted to eat the most every day, but he also put the corn stalks in the three acres of land into the firewood shed. My mother no longer had to work hard on the field and no longer had to worry about burning the kang in winter without firewood.

Looking at a beautiful girl in the front seat, he wondered what the QH girl wrote in the letter? How far is the photo and herself? Could it be a dinosaur? He ran to the Petroleum Technical School again with questions and expectations!
