Red Merry
Chapter 84
('Xue Xiangzheng comforted Xiaowan, Kang Tong, Lei Xiaotian, and Zhu Shijun rushed in with livid faces and red and swollen eyes. Lei Xiaotian was the most anxious, and as soon as he crossed the threshold, he cried out mournfully: "Third brother , the old man, he...he went!"
Xue Xiang hurriedly supported Xiao Wan to the sofa, got up and greeted the three of them to sit down.Although he didn't have much pain, he can fully understand the mentality of these gangsters who are still young GMs. The death of a superstar is nothing more than a catastrophe for the Republic. It is the collapse of a certain god in the spiritual world, far surpassing Qin and Tang. The earthquake brought them the shock.Xue Xiang didn't know how to persuade the three of them, he was at a loss, Xiaowan was still crying at home, and the two little guys were also depressed by the sudden sadness of everyone, sitting there stupidly, staring at the TV, It seems to want to see the truth from this electric box.
Xue Xiang was trying to appease everyone, when there was another noise in his ears, then the door was pushed open with a bang, and a group of people rushed in.He looked up and saw all the acquaintances in the compound of the military division, old and young, men and women, about three to forty people, all with sad faces and stained with tears.He knew that everyone came to watch TV, and even though most homes had radios, everyone was still willing to watch the picture and listen to the broadcast.
Seeing everyone coming, Xue Xiang hurriedly asked Kang Tong and the others to move the TV outside. He knew that there would be more people coming in a while. Although this hall is spacious, it is not a place for mourning.The three of Kang Tong didn't bother to cry, they got up and turned the TV to the playground in the courtyard where it was shown on weekdays.Xue Xiang hugged the little guy, led Xiaoyi and Xiaowan to follow, and went out.
As soon as Xue Xiang stepped out of the gate, his ears were filled with various sounds, crying, shouting, radio... The sounds seemed to be distant, clear and ethereal.To say it is close and clear is because of the sad figures and crying voices that can be seen everywhere in the compound, and the radios of every house are turned on; to say it is far and ethereal, it is because the whole capital, and even the whole Republic, is not like this. Woolen cloth?The converging sounds fill the sky and the earth, isn't that what it feels like to hear it?
When Xue Xiang walked to the playground, the TV had already been set up and started broadcasting again. The family members in the compound seemed to have come out. No one brought chairs. There were only 300 people standing in front of the TV, listening to the TV. Dirges, Internationales and obituaries repeated over and over again on TV.Xue Xiang took San Xiao and stood in the last row. Suddenly, he thought of something, greeted Xiao Wan and Xiao Yi, and carried Xiao Shi home.After a while, when he returned, he had a roll of black gauze and a pair of scissors in his hand, which he bought at noon.He put down Xiao Shi, cut the black gauze into strips of ribbons, first tied one on the arms of the three of Xiao Wan, then tied it on himself, turned around and walked towards the front of the queue.
Xue Xiang is tall, and everyone can see the black gauze raised in his hand. Before everyone asked for it, he had already handed out the black gauze cut into strips.While everyone was grieving, they all secretly praised him for his carefulness.After distributing the black veil, he returned to the back row, still hugged Xiao Shi, and stood aside to mourn.
This mourning came when the setting sun was setting and the setting sun was shining at night.The little guy had long been overwhelmed by the overwhelming sorrow, and was held in Xue Xiang's arms with a sad face all the time.At this moment, she couldn't bear it anymore, her small body kept writhing in Xue Xiang's arms, and she was about to cry while humming.Xue Xiangzi also knew that it was not good for Xiaoyi and Xiaoshi to stay in such a gloomy environment. He walked up to the front with Xiaoshi in his arms and said hello to Kang Tong and the others, then turned around and led the three Xiaoshi back. home.Because of his act of sending out the black veil just now, no one felt that he was taking offense, so no one stopped him. (The compound is all family members of the military, and it is appropriate to hold a grand memorial ceremony.)
Xue Xiang started the motorcycle when he got home, hugged the little guy in front of him, called Xiaowan and Xiaoyi to get into the car, and drove the three of them out of the house.As soon as we got out of the alley, the speed of the car increased. Just after passing the Hufang Bridge, we heard the sound of mourning and crying.The reason why he took Sanxiao out was to relieve his worries, so as not to overwhelm his body due to depression, so he didn't want to continue to be surrounded by such sad emotions.He told Xiaowan and Xiaoyi to hold on to their clothes, stepped on the accelerator, and the speed of the car suddenly soared.Not long after, the little guy leaned on Xue Xiang's chest and shouted against the wind. There was no sadness or joy in his voice, but his voice was clear and clear, showing that his depression had disappeared; Xiaowan also stopped sobbing, and the strong wind driven by the high speed It seemed as if it had blown through every pore of her, washing her body from the inside to the outside; Xiao Yi was stuffed between Xiao Wan and Xue Xiang, her lips were tightly pressed, and the wind couldn't blow him, but the tension brought by the high speed made Xiao Yi feel uncomfortable. Mensao Nan has no time to think, his mind is full of "slow down, slow down", but he just refuses to say it out, his younger sister shouted in front of him, shrinking from his own side, do you want to lose face?
Xue Xiang headed north all the way, aiming at Qidaling Great Wall.The Qidaling Great Wall is located in the northwest of the capital, under the jurisdiction of Yanqing County, and it is more than 70 kilometers away from Xue Xiang's home. Even though he galloped all the way, when he reached Qidaling, the sky was already getting dark.He didn't care how late it was, a visit here was like Prince Youxue's night visit to Dai.Others do it to have fun, but he does it to relieve Sanxiao's worries, and he will go home when the worries are gone.
Xue Xiang set up his car under the Qidaling Great Wall, and it was no longer the time to climb. He led San Xiaoyao to look at the Great Wall for a while, then got on the car again, and returned.When it comes, it is like a galloping electricity, and when it returns, it is like a snail.Now that San Xiao's spirit has improved a lot, there is no need to gallop any longer.At that time, the bright moon is in the sky, shining thousands of miles, the cool wind blows, and the flowers and plants dance like dancing.On this beautiful day, how could Xue Xiang live up to it.It is exactly: when the flowers bloom and the moon shines, it is appropriate to return slowly.
Xue Xiang drove the third child slowly all the way.The breeze is bright and the moon is bright, surrounded by the present, with lush forests and bamboos, reflecting the left and right.When I got home, the little guy was already full of spring breeze, with a smile like before; Xiao Yi was no longer nervous, her eyes were shining, and she seemed to be full of love; even the saddest Xiao Wan before, the sadness was swept away.
Xue Xiang raised his hand to check the time. It was past nine o'clock, and the TV was still playing in the playground. I don't know how the three of Kang Tong are feeling now. Everyone gathered to mourn, and it is expected that the three of them will not be too sad.
"Brother, I'm hungry." The little guy rubbed his belly and began to cry.It seems that she is really hungry, and the "big guy" named Xue Xiang with a hippie smile on weekdays has also been replaced with "big brother", and the "other" has also been replaced with "I".
As soon as the little guy called hungry, Xue Xiang also croaked in his stomach. It's past nine o'clock, can you not be hungry?No matter how full I was with the western food at noon, I hadn’t eaten for more than nine hours, and I had stood for so long. As soon as the word “hungry” was mentioned, the hunger surged up like a tsunami.Xiaowan got up and went to the kitchen to prepare dinner, but Xue Xiang stopped her: "Little baby, take out your snacks and feed your second sister and third brother to pad their stomachs, and elder brother will make dinner for you."
The little guy's snacks have always been shared by her and Xiao Yi, and she collects them herself.Xiaoyi has a sullen temper, and always likes to bring snacks to school to give to Zhang Meili, the angel in his heart.He is easy to show off, he gives some to this, some to that, he has gained a reputation for generosity, and he himself has become a member of the Sunlight family.It's not that he didn't think about cheating on the little guy, but the little guy's vigilance towards him is amazingly high, and he often calls out "Don't steal" in his dreams, so this thought can only be aborted.The little guy is a budget-conscious "petty bourgeoisie", she will put away good snacks, and taste a little every day, with a long stream of water, and her life is so nourishing.At this moment, the little guy heard Xue Xiang's call, and he was not petty, and he didn't mention any conditions. He responded crisply, and went back to the room, and took out a small pink bag, which contained all his treasures. Chocolate, sandwich biscuits and other high-end snacks.The little guy knew that his sister was very sad today, Xiaosi felt a little distressed, and took out his treasures, just to make his sister happy, as for the third brother, let him be happy.
Xue Xiang opened the refrigerator, took out a large piece of beef, some tomatoes, and celery, and returned to the kitchen.It was getting late and everyone was very hungry. He didn't have time to cook, so he planned to eat a bowl of noodles to satisfy his hunger.In his previous life, he was a loner, and cooking was his housekeeping skill. He was very boring, but he was quite good at cooking.
The water was warming on the coal stove, and the coal was replaced in the afternoon. At this time, the flame was low, which was not suitable for cooking.Xue Xiang opened the stove, grabbed a handful of hay, ignited it, stuffed it into the stove, and added two more firewood, and the stove immediately burst into flames.The hearth is built longer, with two iron pots placed one behind the other.He cleaned the two pots, filled the first pot with water, waited for heating, and turned to pick up vegetables.
Xue Xiang washed the beef, tomato, and celery, put them on the chopping board, put on an apron, rolled up his sleeves, and began to chop vegetables.I saw him holding a knife, and the kitchen knife was spinning over the beef block at high speed, so fast that the blade of the knife could not be seen clearly, but slices of beef slices as thin as cicada's wings were produced rapidly.He didn't cut it, and just picked off the meat slices for speed.After packing up the beef, the tomato was neatly dismembered into eight petals by him.After the celery leaves were removed by him, there was a storm of chopping, and soon the celery segments with equal thickness and even length were born.The culinary skills of the past life combined with the skill of the present life gave him an indescribable complacency: I am not an official, so I must be a top-notch cook.Thinking about it again, there will be no poems in later generations sighing at me and saying: To be a cook is really peerless, and it is pitiful to be a jw!
When the water in the front pot was slightly boiling, Xue Xiang poured vegetable oil into the back pot. After pouring the oil, he turned and went back to the closet to take out a thick tube of two catties of noodles, and poured them all into the boiling front pot. Cover the pot, the vegetable oil in the back pot has been burned to the point of smoking.He took the dish containing the beef, carefully slid the beef into the frying pan, stabbed it, and an open flame burst out of the frying pan.He hastily waved the spatula and stir-fried a few times, added salt, shallot, garlic, dried chili and other seasonings, then heated and stir-fried a few times, added celery, after a stir-fry, poured two ladles of water, took it out before Cover the pot with a lid, and take a porcelain basin to pick up some hard noodles.After the water in the back pot boiled, put the noodles and chopped tomatoes into the back pot together. After waiting for another 2 minutes, Xue Xiang began to turn off the fire.
After a bowl of bright and fragrant beef noodles was brought to the table, the little guy who was eating the biscuit said "wow" and stuffed the biscuit to Xiao Yi who was talking earnestly, surrounded the basin, and raised his little nose, "It smells so delicious!" , It smells so good, the eldest brother's cooking is even more fragrant than the second sister's." The little guy praised others, but he didn't know how to avoid it.
"Little baby, go wash your hands and get the dishes." Xue Xiang smiled, took a towel and wiped his hands.
"Okay, take four?" The little guy asked knowingly, meaning something.
Xiaoyi rolled her eyes at him, put down the butter biscuit she had just begged for and hadn't had time to eat a piece, and walked towards her with a bitter face.The little guy smiled triumphantly, shook his fleshy body, and led the unlucky third brother to go.
Ps: Running naked this week, the only wish is to continue to stay on the weekly list. I implore everyone to vote after twelve o'clock tonight to help Jiangnan.If it were tomorrow morning, the official way would already exist on the city weekly ranking list, and Jiangnan Sigeng would repay everyone, and the words would be evidence!
In addition, I recommend a friend's new book "Official Demon". Introduction: To be an official is like a demon, and you will go straight to the top.Beauty is like a flower, blooming all the way to full bloom.He has an inconspicuous black notebook, and he can always make seemingly unimaginable, but actually extremely accurate decisions at the crossroads of life.Since then, the life of a small civil servant has completely changed...
