Zhang Xudong was speechless as he looked at the person outside. He had just said something bad about someone yesterday, and they came to his door today. Was this a case of good things not working but bad things working?
He Dapao, why are you such a big talker? As a grown man, do you think it's interesting for you to talk about this and that?
"Hey, Zhang Xudong, what are you looking at? Who are you looking down on? I came to your house because I respect you. What, now that you have become a hero and a great man, do you look down on your old classmates?" said the girl outside.
It turned out the visitor was Captain He's daughter, He Jingxian, Zhang Xudong's junior high school classmate. The original owner had previously harbored some unpleasant feelings for the girl, and had often been beaten up by her.
"No, I just didn't expect you to come. Why are you here?" Zhang Xudong said quickly.
"Why am I here? It's all because of you. Stop talking nonsense and help me move the box down first." He Jingxian said, pointing to a cardboard box on the back seat of the bicycle.
"Since you're here, why bring a gift? That's too polite."
"Bring you a gift? That's such a nice thought, but you're so embarrassed?" He Jingxian said bluntly.
"Oh, come on, I haven't seen you for a whole summer. How come you've become a gigolo? Tell me, what have you been touching?"
"Get out of the way. You're not as tall as me, so don't take advantage of me." Zhang Xudong said as he untied the rope.
"What's in there and why is it still moving?"
"Move into the yard first. I've come all the way here, can't you let me have a drink of water first?" He Jingxian didn't even wait for the owner to let her in, and pushed the cart into the yard.
"Hey, He Jingxian, can't you, a grown-up girl, be more reserved? Why do you act like you're entering your own home?" Zhang Xudong followed behind and said in a disparaging tone.
"I'm being polite to you? I've beaten you up to the point where we've become acquaintances, not to mention that we've sat at the same table for two years." He Jingxian said bluntly.
The seven little ones were laughing as they listened to the conversation between the two people in the yard.
"Don't you only have one sister? Are they practicing boxing?" He Jingxian asked when she saw so many children in the yard.
"The one standing in front is my sister Zhang Xiyan. Come on, kids, this is your big sister He Jingxian, come say hello." Zhang Xudong introduced.
"Hello, big sister!" the children shouted in unison.
"Hello, kids." He Jingxian greeted with a smile.
"Dongzi, who's here?" grandma asked in the house.
"Grandma, she's my classmate."
"They have come from far away, let them in to drink some water. Why are you becoming more and more ignorant?" Grandma said as she walked out of the house.
"Hello grandma, I'm Zhang Xudong." He Jingxian hurriedly greeted her.
"Oh, she's still a little girl, so pretty, come in quickly."
"Grandma, she's not pretty, she's heroic." Zhang Xudong said, asking for a beating.
He Jingxian glared at Zhang Xudong, then looked at Grandma Zhang and put her raised foot down. It seemed a bit wrong to beat someone else's grandson in front of his grandmother.
The three of them entered the house, and Grandma Zhang quickly poured He Jingxian half a bowl of boiling water. Yes, only half a bowl of boiling water, because the bowl also contained half a bowl of brown sugar, so it could not hold a full bowl of water.
Finally, a girl with a lame eye came to visit her grandson, so we had to treat her well. The old lady poured some water and immediately made an excuse to slip away. We had to create opportunities for her, so we didn't just act like a light bulb in the house.
Zhang Xudong watched his grandmother's actions speechlessly and put the box on the ground.
"What's in here?" Zhang Xudong asked as he opened the box.
"Why are there two puppies?"
"My dad asked me to deliver it."
"What does your father mean by giving me two puppies?"
"My dad said this one didn't meet the standards for a military dog and was eliminated. So he asked me to bring it to you."
"No, why would he send me a puppy that doesn't meet the standards? I didn't ask him for a dog."
"My dad said that troops that don't meet the standards can't stay. If we give them to others, we're afraid they won't have anything to feed and won't survive. So I sent them to you."
"When did I ever tell him that my family could afford a dog? How come I didn't know? He's been making such a fuss just to take advantage of me, right?"
In fact, Zhang Xudong was already very happy. There were many old and young people at home, and it would be very unsafe if he was not at home sometimes.
I was just thinking of getting a dog to guard my house when someone sent me one, and two at once, how thoughtful. But I don't want to accept this favor, so how can I happily accept it?
"Zhang Xudong, don't take advantage of the situation. These are reserve military dogs. Although these two do not meet the standards, they are much better than ordinary dogs. These are authentic Chinese pastoral dogs. They are smart, protective of their masters, and very loyal." He Jingxian said indignantly.
"Hey, Zhang Xudong, go find another bowl to separate this bowl of water and add some more water. This water is so sweet it's enough to make you choke. Your grandmother is so honest."
Zhang Xudong curled his lips. "You're being honest! Didn't you notice that the old lady had bad intentions and wanted to abduct underage girls? This stupid girl, don't you know she's being sold out?"
"Zhang Xiyan, go to the kitchen and get a bowl of cold water, and bring an empty bowl over." Zhang Xudong shouted into the yard.
"Why are you so lazy? You have to ask your sister for help with every little thing?" He Jingxian rolled her eyes at Zhang Xudong.
"Why don't you know how to appreciate a good person? My sister will definitely be happier to see these two puppies than to see you. How can I not thank you!" Zhang Xudong said sarcastically.
"Zhang Xudong, you are capable now and you are so proud of yourself. If I don't beat you up for one summer vacation, you will forget yourself." He Jingxian said as she swung her fist towards Zhang Xudong.
"Sister He, can you beat my brother?" Zhang Xiyan asked as she came in.
When He Jingxian saw the little girl coming in, she quickly put away her fist and almost sprained her waist.
"Little sister, your brother and I were just joking. Your brother is a good-for-nothing and always likes to bully girls." He Jingxian quickly explained.
Zhang Xudong took the water from his little sister's hand and put it on the ground, then carried the two puppies out of the cardboard box.
"Little sister, what did your sister He bring you?"
"Wow, it's a puppy. Thank you, Sister He."
He Jingxian saw Zhang Xiyan's joy after seeing the puppy, and she really couldn't compare to her. It was so depressing, why couldn't either of these siblings be so worry-free?
He Jingxian looked at the two siblings feeding the puppy water, then looked at the empty bowl the little girl had just placed on the table, and she felt even more depressed. Why was there such a big difference in treatment?
Depressed, He Jingxian took the bowl and poured the sugar water out herself, then filled another bowl with water and drank it. Her throat was about to smoke from being mad at the brother and sister. She was so angry that she drank another bowl. It was so sweet!
"Zhang Xudong, my dad told me that you are very good at Kung Fu. Let's go to the yard and compete with me in Kung Fu." After drinking enough water, He Jingxian wanted to find a way to compete in Kung Fu.
I used to beat Zhang Xudong like a chicken, so today I have to beat him up again to satisfy myself and vent my anger.
