Chapter 258 A Dream
Thinking of this, Qin Junshan looked at Ji Yuanyuan and Ji Zixuan with a smile: "Yuanyuan, Zixuan, what are we going to eat for lunch?"
Ji Zixuan put down the book and answered seriously: "Grandpa Qin, I can eat anything!"
Ji Yuanyuan also nodded: "Me too!"
Qin Junshan took the crutch next to him and said, "Then I'll go to the kitchen to see if there are any other dishes!"
He leaned on his crutches and moved towards the kitchen step by step.
Although Qin Junshan's health has improved a lot, he is old after all, and his body is covered with wounds from his youth.
My knees still hurt on rainy days like this.
Ji Yuanyuan stood up and was about to support Qin Junshan when the phone suddenly rang.
Qin Junshan had already walked to the kitchen door, so he instructed: "Yuanyuan, answer the phone and see if it's Mu Cheng calling."
Seeing this, Ji Yuanyuan had no choice but to step forward and answer the phone.
"Hello?" It was Qin Mucheng's voice.
"Brother Mu Cheng, grandpa is in the kitchen and will be here soon!"
Qin Mucheng sounded very happy, Ji Yuanyuan asked curiously: "Brother Mucheng, are you happy about something?"
"We conducted a city-wide mock exam a few days ago." Qin Mucheng was a little shy.
"So did you do very well in the exam?" Ji Yuanyuan said as she climbed onto the sofa.
Sitting on the sofa, she asked seriously, "He must be the first in the class, right?"
Qin Mucheng was silent for a moment, then said: "No. 1 in the city!"
"Wow, first in the city!" Ji Yuanyuan was really surprised.
How many sixth-grade students are there in the entire B city? Moreover, B city is the capital, where many hidden talents are.
It is really amazing that Qin Mucheng can get the first place in the city among so many people.
She couldn't help but sigh in her heart: The gap between people is really too obvious.
This is the difference in IQ!
Upon hearing this, Ji Zixuan looked over with envy.
Qin Junshan came out of the kitchen and asked excitedly, "What do you mean No. 1 in the city?"
Ji Yuanyuan hurriedly reported the good news to Qin Junshan: "Grandpa, Brother Mu Cheng ranked first in the city in a mock exam!"
Hearing that his grandson was so outstanding, Qin Junshan became even more excited. He limped over and took the phone from Ji Yuanyuan, asking repeatedly, "Really? You didn't lie to me, did you?"
"Really? Of course it's true!" Ji Yuanyuan put her ear close to the receiver and heard Qin Mucheng say.
"You're much better than your dad when he was a kid, little brat. You did so well in the exam. Grandpa will buy you whatever you want!" Qin Junshan said happily, his voice much louder than usual.
"It's just a mock exam. Let's talk about it after I get admitted to Mingde!" Qin Mucheng was not proud at all.
"Oh, by the way, Grandpa, my parents told me to concentrate on preparing for the high school entrance exam and not to run around during the May Day holiday. I can't go over to see you."
Hearing this news, Qin Junshan looked a little disappointed.
But he still forced a smile and said, "It's okay. The high school entrance exam is coming up soon, so of course we have to focus on the exam. If you can't come over, Grandpa can go over!"
Speaking of which, Qin Junshan hasn't been back for a long time.
"Grandpa, please give the phone to Yuanyuan. I want to talk to Yuanyuan!" Qin Junshan just got emotional when he heard Qin Mucheng say.
He sighed and handed the microphone to Ji Yuanyuan: "Well, it seems that he doesn't care whether I go back or not!"
"Hello, Brother Mu Cheng!" Ji Yuanyuan called to the person on the other end of the phone.
"Yuanyuan, my grandpa is coming over on May Day, you should come too, and spend two days together!" Qin Mucheng advised, "It's fun here, and there's Qin Doudou, he's grown up now, don't you want to see him?"
Of course I want to.
If she was seventeen this year, she might be able to go. But she was only seven this year, and her family would definitely not be comfortable with her going to City B.
But if the whole family goes together, let’s not talk about whether it will cause too much trouble to the Qin family.
Take the store for example, it makes dozens of dollars a day, and her mother might not be willing to close the store.
"I need to discuss this matter with my mother. I can't make a decision." Ji Yuanyuan said in a low voice.
Hearing this, Qin Mucheng felt a little disappointed.
"Okay, then tell your aunt that if you come, I will take good care of you."
Ji Yuanyuan nodded, "Okay!"
…
Perhaps because she thought too much during the day, Ji Yuanyuan had a dream not long after she fell asleep at night.
She was soaked in the cold and wet rain, tossed by the wind and waves.
Her mouth was full of mud and sand. She wanted to struggle and shout for help.
But there is no way!
The village, farmland and livestock were all submerged by the flood.
She yelled, sitting up suddenly in bed, breathing heavily.
In her previous life, she had read a lot of information about the flood.
Some scenes are still vivid in my mind.
The soldiers held hands and formed a human wall; the weak girl clung to a tree for nine hours before being rescued; the farmers knelt on the ground and cried, begging the people's soldiers not to jump into the water again...
These scenes moved Ji Yuanyuan countless times in her previous life. Whenever she thinks of them in this life, her eyes still turn red.
"Yuanyuan, what's wrong?" Li Xu, who was sleeping next door, heard Ji Yuanyuan's shout and hurried over from next door.
She pushed open the door and saw Ji Yuanyuan sitting on the bed, sweating profusely and with a dull look in her eyes.
"Baby, did you have a nightmare?" Li Xu rushed forward and hugged Ji Yuanyuan with some heartache, "Don't be afraid, mommy is here!"
Ji Yuanyuan nestled in Li Xu's arms and nodded gently: "Mom, I just had a very strange and scary dream!"
Li Xu pulled the quilt over Ji Yuanyuan and whispered to her, "Shall we lie down and talk?"
Ji Yuanyuan nodded again, and Li Xu hugged her and lay down in the quilt.
It was very cold in the bed, so Li Xu clung to Ji Yuanyuan, trying to keep her warm.
"Now tell your mother what you dreamed about just now. Was it scary?" Li Xu asked softly.
Ji Yuanyuan thought about it again and again, and after a long while, he slowly spoke: "I dreamed that there was a lot of water. The house, farmland, people, and livestock were all flooded. The water was higher than the house. There was so much water!"
Upon hearing this, Li Xu quickly reached out and gently patted her daughter's back.
"Don't be afraid, it's all a dream!"
Why would my daughter have such a dream out of the blue?
Ji Yuanyuan didn't say anything else, but whispered: "But it's so real, I can still remember it clearly now!"
"Let's go to sleep. I guarantee you'll have forgotten about it tomorrow." Li Xu coaxed her.
"Mom, there was an old grandfather in my dream. He told me to prepare flood-fighting supplies in advance because they will be needed when the time comes." Ji Yuanyuan said naively.
Li Xu just thought it was just childish talk at the time and didn't take it seriously.
She patted Ji Yuanyuan's back and said, "Good boy, let's close our eyes and go to sleep. We will definitely forget about it tomorrow!"
