The story "Quiet Morning" Yuri Pavlovich Kazakov wrote in 1954. When you read the beginning of a work, it seems that it has a calm, serene plot. But the farther you run your eyes through the letters, the more it becomes clear that in front of the heroes a severe test awaits, and not a calm, quiet morning. The summary will help the reader quickly familiarize themselves with the work.
Volodya and Yashka
The story begins with a description of one of the main characters - Yashki. He lived in a village house with his mother. That morning the boy woke up early, because he had an affair. He drank milk and bread, took a fishing rod and went to dig for worms. On the street, a quiet morning awaited him. The summary takes the reader to the predawn hour of the village. At that time, almost everyone in that village was still sleeping. The hammer taps in the forge were only heard. Yashka dug up worms and went to the barn. His new friend slept here - Muscovite Volodya.
The day before, he himself came to Yashka and asked to take him fishing. It was decided to leave early in the morning. So the guys did. The country boy teased the city man, because he went off with his boots, while the local guys ran only barefoot in the summer.
Fishing
So begins the story "Quiet Morning." The summary transfers the plot to the shore of the pond. This is where the main events unfold. Yashka planted a worm, threw a fishing rod, and almost immediately felt someone cling tightly to that end. It was a fish. But her boy could not hook and missed. The second boot failed. The teenager caught a big bream and barely pulled him ashore. At this time, Volodya’s fishing pole danced. He rushed to her, but stumbled and fell into the water.
Yashka wanted to scold a new friend for such awkwardness and even took a lump of land to throw into him later. But it was not needed. A boy from Moscow floundered desperately on the surface of the pond. Yashka realized that he was drowning. Here is a tense plot invented by Yu.P. Cossacks. A quiet morning, which did not portend trouble, almost turned into a serious tragedy.
The rescue
Yashka did not immediately realize what to do. He rushed forward to call someone for help. Having run a little, he realized that there was no one nearby, and he would have to save his comrade himself. But the guy was afraid to get into the water, as one of his village friends said he saw a real octopus in the water, which could easily drag a person into the abyss. In addition, the pond could suck anyone into its waters. This is the plot of the story “Quiet Morning”. Summary continues the story.
There was nothing to do. Quickly taking off his pants, Yashka dived. He swam to Volodya, grabbed him and tried to pull him ashore. However, drowning people often behave inappropriately. So did the Muscovite. Without realizing it, in a fit of fear, he began to climb his savior. Yashka felt that he himself began to choke and sink. Then he hit Vova with his foot in the stomach and sailed to the shore. The boy caught his breath and looked back. On the surface of the water he did not see anyone.
Then the guy again threw himself into the water, dived and saw a comrade under water. Yasha grabbed his hand and pulled him ashore with great effort. He began to bring Volodya to life. Not immediately, but he succeeded.
Such is the summary of Kazakov's “Quiet Morning” - a story about courage and friendship.
