A light rain in the early morning dispelled the heat of early summer, and the weather was much cooler.

On the grape trellis in the yard, the stems and leaves of the vines are climbing and entangled on the wires, lush and lush, with clusters of purple grapes still stained with rain and dew, reflected by the sunlight passing through the gaps between the stems and leaves Under the sun, there is a crystal clear light, which is mouth-watering.

Under the grape trellis, on the ground paved with red bricks, there are occasional small potholes with a little water remaining, shining brightly.

Beside a small brown-red square table, Su Chunfeng was wearing a white vest and big black pants, half sitting and half leaning on an old bamboo recliner with his legs crossed, holding an English book in his hand and reading it seriously.From time to time, I reach out to pinch a grape from the large white bowl on the table and throw it into my mouth, chewing it gently, the aftertaste is endless.

The younger brother Su Chunyu was lying on the edge of the table, doing his summer homework with a bitter expression on his face.

I don't know when, in Su Chunyu's mind, the image of his brother has become a demon more terrifying than his father.

"I went to junior high school after the summer vacation started. If I don't lay a good foundation, what can I do?" Su Chunfeng glanced at his frowning younger brother, and reprimanded him: "I was admitted to Dongwangzhuang Township Middle School based on my grades, what about you? I had to go to the school to trust someone, and it cost my family more than 100 yuan to get a place!"

"It's different where you go to school?" Xiaoyu muttered, "Where you go to school is far away from home, what if you get bullied? Sigh..."

Su Chunfeng glared at him, and reprimanded: "If you don't study hard, I'll find someone to go to school and beat you every day!"

"Are you still my brother?" Xiao Yu wanted to cry but looked at her brother pitifully.

"Your grades are good, I guarantee that no one will dare to bully you in Dongwangzhuang Township Middle School!" Su Chunfeng snorted, and out of the corner of his eyes, he saw two little heads sneaking into the courtyard at the gate, and he couldn't help showing his face. With a look of dumbfounding, he waved his hands and said, "Your little friend is looking for you, take a bunch of grapes and go out to play!"

"Thank you brother!" Xiao Yu excitedly closed the book, grabbed a bunch of grapes, got up and ran out quickly.

"Remember to come back early for dinner at noon, and have two hours of homework in the afternoon! Do you hear me?"

"I heard it!"

Amidst the promise, Xiao Yu had already run away with his friends.

Su Chunfeng smiled and shook his head—under his strict discipline, his younger brother's academic performance has improved a lot in the past year.At the beginning of this year's junior high school, it was only three points short of the admission score of Dongwangzhuang Township Middle School.In desperation, Su Chunfeng made a special trip to buy two bottles of wine and a pack of cigarettes, and approached the class teacher Li Jichun to ask for a place.Thanks to his excellent academic performance, Li Jichun had a very good impression, so he bought some gifts and got Li Jichun's consent.

However, Su Chunfeng was lectured by Li Jichun.

There is no other reason, Su Chunfeng does not take the entrance examination for technical secondary school, even if he is admitted for public education, he will not go, but wants to go to high school.This makes Li Jichun look like a serious waste of resources and talents, which is really a pity.After all, public school students can go to school without spending money, and they can soon earn money by working in formal jobs after graduation, so why do they have to go to high school?Besides, it is also an honor for teachers to be admitted to a public technical secondary school student in a class.

As soon as his younger brother left, Su Chunfeng turned on the small Walkman on the table, and soon a classical melody came out of it, and then, a melodious and ethereal singing voice sang:

The fairy mountains are separated by the sea of ​​clouds, and the Xialing jade belt is connected.

It is said that there are angels outside the world.

The gods are not envious, but the world works hard.

No matter how difficult it is, there is also a happy garden.

Aspiring to be able to encourage oneself, no need to complain about hardships;

Struggling and sweating and blood, laughing proudly at gains and losses.

But I want to add more warmth to the world.

Send out all the light and take all the warmth.

No troubles, no worries, work hard to practice.

Live every day and have a happy and happy year.

Jade Tower Fairy Palace is built of gold and jade.

The secular world is not worse than the fairyland...

……

On the platform, Chen Xiulan, who was washing her clothes, raised her arm and wiped the sweat from her forehead with the back of her hand. Her smiling face was full of happiness—how can a parent be dissatisfied with a child like this?Listening to the melodious song again, it really makes people feel that the current life is better than that fairy.

Just when Su Chunfeng was intoxicated by the singing, the memories of the past and the satisfaction of life in this life, he heard his father's rough voice coming from the gate of the courtyard: "Xiaofeng."

"Hey." Su Chunfeng reached out to turn off the Walkman, stood up and said in surprise, "Father, you're back." While running to help his father carry those big and small bags into the house, he said, "This time I'm back. Don't you need to go out? How is the income this year?"

"Yeah." Su Cheng smiled and said, "It's better than last year."

Chen Xiulan also hurriedly got up and said: "Put all the dirty clothes outside, I'll wash them and hang them up in a while...His father, take a shower quickly and change the clothes on your body."

"Hey."

At a height of two meters and five meters above the platform between the west house and the main house, a wire was pulled and a curtain was hung to separate an open-air bathroom.A large water bag made of white plastic cloth is placed on the roof, and a leather pipe with a shower head installed is connected to the water bag, and it hangs down. After the sun shines in summer, there is hot water for showering. water.

Very simple.

However, no one in the rural environment currently uses this method. Su Chunfeng did it by himself after returning home after the high school entrance examination, and it made the family much more convenient.

More than ten days before Su Chunfeng took the high school entrance examination, Su Chengcheng drove the combine harvester outside to earn money.

So Su Chunfeng participated in the serious gang fight in school, but Su Cheng didn't know about it.And Chen Xiulan, who had been in fear for many days, did not tell her husband, for fear that her husband, who was busy in other places, would be frightened when he heard the news, and it was really inconvenient to communicate these days.

After taking a bath, Su Cheng sat at the table under the grape arbor, drank the tea his son made, lit a cigarette and asked casually, "How did you do in the exam?"

"Waiting for the notice." Su Chunfeng smiled.

"Hmm." Su Cheng didn't ask too much. It's no problem to get into the County No. [-] Middle School with his son's grades.Taking a deep breath, Su Cheng continued, "When I was leaving the car at the feed factory, I heard from Li Sheng and his son that a few days before the senior high school entrance examination, you and Zhichao had a group fight at school and almost killed you." ,Yeah?"

Su Chunfeng looked like he had made a mistake, lowered his head and whispered: "Yes."

The ins and outs of the matter, Su Chengcheng had already learned the details from Li Sheng and his son when he was at the feed factory just now.So after roughly hearing the news, he nodded and said: "It's over, and I can't blame you for anything. But in the future, you should pay attention to it. Don't be rash and impulsive when you go to school outside. It's your luck this time. Dead people... in case someone dies, can you afford it?"

"Father, I know I was wrong." Su Chunfeng said honestly.

"It's not completely wrong." Su Cheng was a little dumbfounded and helpless. His son said he was honest, and he really did the heroic thing of drawing swords to help when he saw injustice. Moreover, according to Li Zhichao, a child of Li Sheng's family, Xiaofeng dared to It's really brave to fight alone with a group of social youths!But if you want to say that he is brave and rebellious, he is not. No matter outside or at home, Xiaofeng is known as an honest and good boy.

Although Su Cheng and Chen Xiulan still advocated not to cause trouble when it comes to educating their children, like almost all parents, they don't want their children to be honest and bullied.

So now Su Chunfeng's obedient attitude made Su Cheng not know what to say for a while.

Encourage him to fight?

That is absolutely impossible.

However, Su Cheng is still very satisfied with this eldest son—look at the house, when Su Cheng, the head of the family, is busy earning money, his son Su Chunfeng is helping his mother with farm work, cleaning up the house, disciplining and helping his younger brother Through the connections, I can go to Dongwangzhuang Township Middle School, and I even managed to get a hot water bag to take a shower... What should be done by an adult, a fifteen or sixteen-year-old child will do it all for you. The peace of mind of parents makes the neighbors envious.

After gossiping for a while, Su Chunfeng said: "Father, I estimate that in two years at most, the work of the combine harvester will not be easy to do. You see, our village has two new harvesters this year, and there are also two harvesters in the neighboring villages." There are several cars, and there will be more in the future, the competition is fierce. So, I think you should think about doing something else now."

"En." Su Cheng nodded appreciatively, and said, "Xiaofeng, do you have any ideas?"

Su Chunfeng pretended to think about it for a while, and then said carefully: "A few days ago, my third grandpa came to the house, and when I was chatting with him, I heard him talk about the coal mine in Xishan County. I think our family can do it now. Loan, let my third grandpa help Ban Qi to set up a small coal mine over there..."

"Coal mine?" Su Cheng was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect his son to open his mouth to be a big business, he really dared to think, dare to say it!

"The investment is a bit big, and it's probably difficult to get it without one million." Su Chunfeng said with a curled lip.

In fact, he didn't know much about these things, but in the memory of his previous life, the coal bosses in Jinyuan Province were all very rich, so when he heard about the coal mines while chatting with Chen Xian, he was moved.But now that I think about it, it is too much investment to start a coal mine. With the current conditions of my family... even a loan is not enough--in these years, can a rural credit union lend a huge sum of millions?Even if you can, with the foundation of your family, why should the credit union take risks to lend you so much?

Thinking of this, Su Chunfeng smiled and waved his hands, and said, "Actually, it's not bad to get a big truck for freight. Look at the feed factory in Zhichao's family. It's difficult to hire a car when it comes to transporting it out for private chats."

Su Cheng was stunned when he heard it. This son seemed to worry about these things all day long, and he knew a lot, as if he had studied them all.

Just as he was about to say something, he heard someone calling outside the door: "Is Su Chunfeng at home?"

"Here." Su Chunfeng replied, and he knew Zhang Lifei was here as soon as he heard it.

"Su Chunfeng! Congratulations! Your admission letter!" Amidst the shouts of joy, Zhang Lifei, who was wearing a ponytail in a pink embroidered dress, flew into the yard like a cheerful bird, holding her hand Waving a white acceptance letter.As a result, upon entering the courtyard and seeing Su Chunfeng's parents sitting in the courtyard, Zhang Lifei couldn't help but blushed, bit her lips, walked forward shyly in small steps, bowed slightly and said shyly and politely, "Hello, Uncle and Auntie."
