Then Xiang Nan said, "People in Wan Tou know how to use flashlights and torches."
Xiang Jin said, "You are not allowed to go either, just stay at home for me!"
Xiang Nan immediately became unhappy and glared at her with dissatisfaction, "Why? I already made an agreement with Xiang Yao and the others!"
Xiang Jin said, "It doesn't work as promised. Mom, I, and Aunt Liao won't go. Who will take care of you?"
"I don't need anyone to take care of me. I can take care of myself. Besides, if I follow the adults and my friends, what can happen to me?"
Xiang Jin frowned and stared at her indifferently, "What if you get separated from them then?"
"No!" the little girl said categorically.
"No?" Xiang Jin snorted coldly, "I know how to do it when I see it! Many people stood to watch the Baba movie, and the adults covered the children so that the children couldn't see it.
When the time comes, you will run around looking for a place. Do you think you can easily get separated?
There are many people in the countryside who keep dogs. What if you are unlucky and get bitten by a dog that suddenly rushes out of nowhere?
At that time, you didn’t have your own family around you, so if other adults didn’t have to take care of their own children, why should they take care of you?
You're so old, where are you going to ask my mother and I to find a doctor to treat you? Then even if you find some rural doctors, can you guarantee that other people have ready-made rabies vaccines? If not
What should you do? Just wait and get rabies!"
The little girl argued with reason at first, but after Xiang Jin's deliberately horrifying description, the little girl suddenly didn't dare to speak out, and then she looked frightened.
Then Xiang Jin softened his tone and touched her little head and said, "Okay, just stay at home and have a good time. What good movies are there to watch? When you are free later, I will take you to the countryside or
Go see it at the cinema in town.”
The little girl's eyes suddenly shone brightly, "Really?"
"Yeah," Xiang Jin nodded.
The little girl's eyelids drooped again and she muttered, "But you have to pay to go to the cinema."
Xiang Jin reasoned with her, "But it's safer that way."
At this time, she didn't know much about the word "safety". She felt that her sister was too worried, but she did not refute. Instead, after thinking for a while, she raised her eyebrows and agreed, "Then
Well,” until the next day….
Xiang Jin said, "After dinner, you will know how to tell Xiang Yao and the others, right?"
"Yes," the little girl nodded, and then said to Xiang Jin, "I allow you to read a little book tonight."
"Yeah!" The little girl immediately jumped up with joy, and then told her the conditions, "Then I want to read the book "Seven Colored Flowers"?"
"Can!"
After Xiang Nan finished eating, he went to talk to Xiang Yao, while Xiang Jin and the others sat down to eat together.
The little girl kept her word and ran back consciously after a while. Then Xiang Jin also kept her word and took out several little books she had collected from another old man who collected scraps.
, then found the book "Seven Colored Flowers" she wanted to read and handed it to her.
Then the little girl hid in her room and watched with interest.
Aunt Liao smiled and joked, "Girl Jin has a way."
Everyone in the family laughed.
Xiang Jin said, "As long as the child is in his own home, it will be fine."
Everyone thought what she said made sense.
They had just finished eating and collected the bowls and chopsticks, and Aunt Liao's brothers and nephews had just left when Han Che ran over and asked Xiang Jin if he wanted to go to the Ninth Brigade to watch a movie in the evening? If so, let's go together!
Xiang Jin shook his head, "I'm not going."
Then Han Che asked her why?
Xiang Jin said, "Not interested!"
Han Che's face suddenly fell, "How can you answer Yan Chen? He said he was not interested either. I was still counting on you, but I was really disappointed."
Xiang Jin nodded, and Han Che said, "Why aren't you surprised at all?"
Xiang Jin said, "What's so surprising? He doesn't like to join in the fun, so I'm not surprised at all by his answer.
It's you, aren't you and him childhood friends and good friends? Logically speaking, you two should have very similar temperaments, but why do I feel that you two are polar opposites?
Especially you seem to be very interested in some things in our rural areas!"
Han Che said, "I've never seen that before?"
Xiang Jin nodded, "I understand, is that strange?!"
Han Che immediately grinned, "Oh, that's right! So I've never seen this Baba movie, so I just want to experience it."
Then Xiang Jin used the same method to scare Xiang Nan, "I advise you not to go, there is nothing interesting about the dam movie, it's just shown in the open air at the head of the dam.
It's summer now. In addition to mosquitoes, there are also a lot of snakes and rats in our rural areas. Especially at night, those snakes and rats like to come out of the grass and lie on the roadside to enjoy the cool air. Be careful if you step on it, it will be tragic.
.
The last time Yan Chen and I went to the market and came back from town, we encountered two colorful snakes in a small ditch on the roadside that were at least as thick as an adult's wrist. We were frightened to death, especially me.
, I was so scared that I almost fell to the ground, but it took me a long time to recover."
"Ah? So scary?" Han Che's expression suddenly changed.
Xiang Jin nodded seriously, "Isn't that right? So if you have nothing to do, don't run out every day. You see, the medical level in our place is not developed, and the transportation is not convenient.
If you are really bitten by something, it will be difficult to find a place for medical treatment. Even if you find it, other people may not have the corresponding and symptomatic medicine."
Xiang Jin's words immediately made Han Che scared. When he saw his mouth open and his big eyes staring in disbelief, he hurriedly said, "Forget it then, I'll just stay at home."
Xiang Jin nodded, "You have a TV at home. Although you can't watch the movie, you can still watch TV at home. Didn't you say that the one on Phoenix Mountain has been broadcasting videos every night recently? I heard that the actors are still the ones who have played recently.
One of the more popular martial arts dramas.”
Han Che asked, "You even know this?"
Xiang Jin said, "My sister, Xiang Yao, and the few little carrot heads in Wan Tou talk about it every day, even if I don't want to know, can't I?"
Han Che smiled and said, "So that's it?"
Xiang Jin nodded, and then Han Che went back directly.
When he got home, Yan Chen asked him directly, "How's it going? Is Xiang Jin going?"
Han Che just slumped down lazily on the chair, "If you don't go, I'm just like you, not interested."
"Heh," Yan Chen laughed, and then asked, "Then are you still going?"
Han Che shook his head, "If you don't want to go, what are you going to do? Waiting to be bitten by snakes and rats?"
Yan Chen immediately understood what Xiang Jin had just said to him. He must have said that he was scaring him when they encountered a snake last time, so he asked, "Would you like to play two games of chess?"
Han Che immediately became interested and sat up straight in his chair, "Okay, come on, I don't believe I always lose to you!"
Grandma Mo and Grandpa Zeng laughed when they saw it. Grandpa Zeng raised his wrist and looked at his watch. Seeing that it was almost seven o'clock, he quickly got up and changed the channel to CCTV1.
People like them are accustomed to watching news broadcasts. Unless there is a power outage, they must watch it every day. If they don't watch it, they always feel as if something is missing in their hearts.
,
After a while, someone passed by their courtyard gate and shouted to them, "Auntie, Uncle Mingyao, let's go watch a movie?"
"Hey, you go, you go," Grandma Mo and Grandpa Zeng greeted everyone at home with a smile.
On Xiang Jin's side, Aunt Liao, her mother, and their grandmother finished eating and put away the pots and bowls, then sat alone in the courtyard with a small bench, enjoying the coolness while setting up the dragon gate array.
Xiang Jin just washed up early and went back to her room to pick up a book and read it. The book was none other than the Zizhi Tongjian that Yan Chen gave her last time.
There isn't much work at home now, so whenever she has free time, she will read it. Recently she has finished one book, and this is the second one now.
