Farmer's Struggle

Chapter 20 Gifts
Ju Min's [-] sentences of persuasion are not as effective as Ju Ling's.

"You little bastard, your wings are stiff, aren't you?" Ju Jing stretched out her hand to scratch Ju Ling's itch angrily, and said angrily: "You wait for the little one, what are you going to do in the future, parents don't you?" I will definitely file a complaint immediately for what you did, and when your parents beat you, I will watch from the side, applaud and cheer for them."

Ju Ling couldn't dodge left and right, and was out of breath laughing, begging for mercy repeatedly.Ju Jing didn't intend to stop, Ju Min couldn't bear to watch it any longer, and directly pulled Ju Ling behind to protect her and warned, "Okay, Jing Jing, if you turn around like this again, I will sue my parents for bullying the little one."

Ju Jing: .
The results of the final exam will be released on the day, and it is no surprise that Ju Ling won No.1.

Regardless of the small size of the school in the village, the top few students will be rewarded after the final exam of each semester.In the past few years, they were just ordinary homework books and pencil cases. This semester, the school spent a little more money, and the prizes were better than in previous years. They were thick black suede notepads, and it was said that a book cost more than ten yuan.

Ju Ling liked this notebook very much, and wrote her first diary entry that night under the dim 15-watt light.

In the last paragraph of the diary, I wrote down a line of words deeply - in five days, Brother Xiaojue will come.

Five days later, a van drove into the village, attracting many people to watch the excitement.

In less than ten years, life has changed a lot.The first time Qiao Jue came to the village, he took a tractor into the village, but this time he took a van.

The three sisters of the Ju family were rubbing corn grains in the outer room, and Ju Ling was the first to react when they heard the sound outside.

She stood up for a while, thought for a while, then squatted down and continued to rub the corn.

"Yo hey, so excited? Qiao Jue is here? Don't be nervous, go out and have a look," Ju Jing poked her with her elbow and said.

Ju Ling touched his prickly head and shook his head: "He will come to find me!"

As soon as the words fell, a strange, hoarse but not unpleasant male voice that was in the period of voice change came from outside the house.

"Little one, I'm here." The boy's voice was filled with undisguised joy and excitement: "Little one, I brought you a lot of presents."

The door of the room was opened, and a tall and thin boy walked in with the harshest winter wind.His gaze swept across the faces of the three sisters, and finally settled on Ju Ling's face, with
"Hey, you are quite suitable for a bald head," Qiao Jue commented.

We haven't seen each other for many years, but seeing each other doesn't feel strange at all.

It's just that the text can't generate a clear picture after all, and I'm a little surprised to see the other party's current appearance suddenly.

After taking off the hat, Qiao Jue is still bald.It's just that the bald-headed Qiao Jue has lost a lot of weight now, with big sunken eye sockets, making people want to give him all the meat on the plate.

As for Ju Ling, she has round eyes, a round face and a round head, and her cheeks are chapped by the cold wind due to lack of maintenance. When she looks up at people, she is no longer the dull look she used to be when she was a child. Smart.

As soon as Qiao Jue came, the three sisters stopped rubbing corn and took him into the back room to look at the gifts he brought.

Most of them are food, and they are all rare snacks brought back from abroad.

Ju Jing grabbed the exquisitely packaged snacks and asked enviously: "Brother Xiaojue, have you ever been to a foreign country? Are foreigners scary?"

Qiao Jue unwrapped a piece of chocolate and split it from the middle, leaving half for himself and handing the other half to Ju Ling, watching Ju Ling take a bite of the chocolate carefully, showing a joyful expression that ordinary people can't detect, and then replied with a smile: "Been there A few times, I went to the competition. Foreigners are also human, so there is nothing scary about it.”

It may be exaggerated to say that Qiao Jue is a young genius, but his IQ is indeed not low. Coupled with advanced family education, he has already shown his mathematical talent at a very young age. After junior high school, he often participated in domestic and foreign mathematics competitions. , Physics and other subjects have won numerous awards.

The three sisters were very interested in foreign countries and foreigners, and asked him many related questions, which were quite ridiculous, but he answered them seriously without any impatience.

In the evening Zhang Yongmei left Qiao Jue at home for dinner, but Qiao Jue was not polite, sitting cross-legged on the kang as if at home.

It gets dark early in winter, and it’s only after six o’clock after dinner that it’s already dark outside.

He wanted to leave, and the three sisters wanted to see them off, but he smiled and said, "It's not that I don't know the way, so I can just walk by myself."

He agreed to go by himself, but when he reached the door, he turned around and grinned at Ju Ling, saying, "Little boy, come with me for a walk, I have something to tell you."

Ju Ling didn't respond, so Ju Min and Ju Jing rolled their eyes at him first.

The weather is fine today, with no clouds and no wind, it's dry and cold. When you look up, you can see the twinkling stars in the dark night sky, which is quite beautiful.

Ju Ling thought she would be able to go back within a minute or two, so she didn't wear a hat or gloves. Before she reached the gate, her ears hurt from the cold, and when she stretched out her hands to cover her ears, her hands felt uncomfortable.

Qiao Jue couldn't help laughing at her little gesture of looking at her sideways, took off the hat and put it on Ju Ling's head, and transferred her scarf and gloves to her, watching the little girl tightly wrapped Shi Cai said with satisfaction: "Hey, you are still in pain like when you were a child, let alone hot or cold, it makes people feel distressed."

"Isn't it painful and lukewarm after you say it?" Ju Ling asked rhetorically, poking her neck.

Qiao Jue couldn't help rubbing her head through the hat, and said with a smile: "Only children who can cry can eat sweets. Learn more from your second sister, and she will cry better than you."

Ju Jing is eloquent and loves to act like a baby. In Qiao Jue's opinion, such a child will be favored, and someone as stupid as Ju Ling is easy to be ignored.

This is also the pattern that Qiao Jue discovered from other people. Among his classmates who are not only children, those who are coquettish and who love to cry and fight will be particularly favored at home, while those who are very sensible and obedient will get nothing.

Unfortunately, this rule does not hold in the Ju family.

"I don't have to cry, they will think of me if they have good things," Ju Ling said proudly with her small face up.

Qiao Jue was stunned and had nothing to say, so he walked for a while, but Ju Ling refused to leave.

"What are you going to say to me?" Ju Ling asked.

Qiao Jue stopped and looked down at Ju Ling, took out a small square box from the pocket of the down jacket and handed it to her.

In the dark night, his big white teeth are particularly conspicuous.He said to Ju Ling with a smile: "Last year, in order to prepare a special birthday gift for my mother, my dad specially learned craftsmanship from a master Seiko master, and I also learned a little bit from it. Let's play."

It was something he made with his own hands. Ju Ling was curious and wanted to open it immediately to see what was in the box, but Qiao Jue stopped him and said, "Go back and have a look. You've been outside for a long time, it's so cold, go back."
