Chapter 63: One Man, One Dog, One Love

A lock when you go out, a light when you enter the door, chat by phone, and only dogs accompany you.

Huang Jiaxi's grandmother, her wife died of illness three years ago, and her daughter was not around after she got married, so she can be regarded as an empty nester. She also knows that it is not easy for her daughter to work hard in a big city, and if she has nothing to do, she will not bother her.

Usually, I talk on the phone every once in a while, telling Guo Fu to change clothes, change quilts, and pay attention to the life and study of the child Huang Jiaxi.

Her daily routine is relatively monotonous, she will go grocery shopping in the morning, then clean up the house in the morning, watch TV dramas or sleep in the afternoon, and go out for a walk after dinner in the evening. Before going to bed, watch the news on your phone, watch short videos or something, and pass the time.

Grandma's house is also quite large, and the two-bedroom and two-living room house is very empty for her to live alone.

After arriving home, my grandmother put Cui Tao down and went to open the windows of each room to ventilate the wind.

Cui Tao took the opportunity to walk around the various rooms. The quaint furniture shows the age, the old-fashioned LCD color TV is still sticking to the post, the bald sofa can see the fibers inside, and the lily-style chandelier tells the mottled ......

There is a lot of furniture, and the room does not seem empty, but it gives Cui Tao a feeling of desolation in his heart.

It is not easy for a person to face this empty house for several years.

After her grandmother washed, she grabbed Cui Tao to her bed, patted him on the head, and then climbed into bed.

Under a bedside lamp, my grandmother waved her fingers and looked through her phone.

Cui Tao didn't feel good in the face of an unfamiliar environment. The mood is at a low ebb, and I am a little depressed. It's still more free at Huang Jiaxi's house, especially at night, you can do whatever you want.

Forget it, follow the local customs, and talk about grievances for a few days.

"Can't you sleep, come to bed!" Grandma put down her phone and looked at Cui Tao who was squatting in his slippers under the bed.

It's not that I can't sleep, it's just that I'm not used to it, and it's best if you send me home tomorrow!

Grandma stretched out her arms and grabbed Cui Tao, and then pinched Cui Tao's puppy, as if she was teasing a child. She watched it for a while, suddenly remembered something, picked up the bedside table, took a photo with her wife, put it next to Cui Tao, and compared it.

"When the old man was young, he was as handsome as you!" said Grandma to herself.

Comparing his wife to a dog? Cui Tao couldn't laugh or cry, is this a compliment or a derogatory?

Grandma pinched Cui Tao's face again and laughed involuntarily.

She got up, put Cui Tao down from the bed, and then took out a brown plush bear from the corner of the wardrobe and handed it to Cui Tao. "This is Jiaxi's toy when she was a child, and then she has a new toy, so she doesn't want it...... I've been hiding it and reluctant to throw it away, so tonight, I'll be your companion. ”

Next to Cui Tao, there is a little bear toy.

Well, thank you grandma for your kindness, just use it as a pillow.

"Po" grandma turned on the lamp switch and fell asleep.

Just after six o'clock in the morning, my grandmother woke up. Cui Tao didn't have anything on his mind, slept peacefully, stretched his waist, and felt that he had become energetic.

"Let's go, go grocery shopping with me!" Grandma pushed a small cart, put Cui Tao in, and took him out.

Well, the suspension is a little worse, and it's like a donkey cart......

Along the way, my grandmother greeted the neighbors she knew, chatting and laughing.

"Yo, Nong has a dog?" said a middle-aged woman.

"Hehe, my daughter's family, I'm idle, I'll take care of it for a few days. ”

"Dogs are harder to raise than children, and they make the whole house dirty...... "Middle-aged woman B.

"Puppies are not in the way and are not annoying. ”

Cui Tao has become the talking point of every middle-aged woman, and she has to take him out and talk about it.

Grandma is still very happy, these usual nodding friends, because this time I took the dog out, and when there is a topic, everyone will stop and deliberately chat a few words.

Cui Tao could see that her grandmother took the trouble to introduce herself, although most of the words were a little repetitive, she was still very happy in her heart.

A person is most afraid of being ignored by others and living insensitively.

Grandma came to the vegetable market, picked a few pomfret and angsting fish, cut a pound of ribs, and planned to boil soup to eat. In terms of vegetables, I bought some greens, tomatoes and hemp cabbage.

"Wangwang......" Cui Tao screamed a few times in her arms.

My grandmother didn't like to pay with her mobile phone and felt that it was too troublesome to enter the password. She still likes to buy groceries with cash, but sometimes she forgets to get her change back when she buys too much.

Cui Tao saw that his grandmother had paid and didn't take change, so he shouted.

The stall owner of the vegetable market smiled: "Sister, your dog is so smart." Oh, it's looking for your change!"

"Oops, I'm sorry, I forgot again...... This head is really getting worse and worse. Grandma apologized again and again.

This change was originally yours, and you apologize to others?

Coming out of the vegetable market, my grandmother took Cui Tao and plunged into the supermarket again.

She took out a supermarket advertisement from her bag, which said "Egg special" today, the original price is 8 yuan, and the current price is 2.99 yuan a catty. ”

It's eggs again...... It is true that where there are eggs, there are elderly people.

When my grandmother arrived at the supermarket, she went straight to the egg area, and took seven or eight catties of eggs in one go.

"8 pounds of eggs, a total of 64 yuan. "The cashier weighed the eggs.

"Isn't it more than 2 yuan a catty, why is it so expensive?" Grandma was anxious, and as she spoke, she took out the advertising leaflet.

The cashier pointed to the line behind "2.99 yuan", took out a magnifying glass, and said: "You don't see a row of small characters in the back, only for the top 10 ...... every day"

This line of small print is almost invisible to the naked eye. It can only be said that the business routine is deep, and the iron pestle becomes a toothpick.

My grandmother wanted to return the eggs, but when she saw the long line of customers behind her, she felt unbearable.

"Forget it, it's expensive. "Grandma had no choice but to buy the high-priced eggs.

Cui Tao knows that there must be restrictions on this kind of eggs that are obviously lower than the market price, otherwise they would have sold crazy. Merchants are eating the weakness of the quasi-elderly who love to be greedy and cheap, and lure them into the bait.

Forget it, just spend money to buy a lesson.

Grandma went home, cooked the dishes, ate lunch, and sat on the sofa with Cui Tao to watch the TV series.

This is a vulgar romance similar to Qiong Yao's, the plot of the girl Huaichun meets the negative man. The innocent heroine spends about a third of the time crying in the play, which is very sensational.

Grandma looked at it...... I actually cried too. Cui Tao could see that when the picture switched to the negative man, the corners of his grandmother's mouth would always show anger.

Don't say that seventeen or eighteen-year-old girls will be pregnant with spring, and seventy or eighty-year-old women will also touch the scene.

"This man really deserves a thousand cuts!"

"Why doesn't this man die?"

"This man is looking for a piece of tofu and killing him!"

Cui Tao feels that the grandmother at this moment has completely crossed over to the eighteen-year-old girl in the TV series, and there may be a shadow of her youth in the play.

Looking at it, my grandmother fell asleep......

Cui Tao muted the volume of the TV and switched to his favorite cartoon channel. This kind of outdated romantic drama can't earn his tears.

A dark cloud drifted in the sky, and suddenly it began to pour down.

Oops, grandma's clothes are still hanging outside.

Do you want to wake up your grandmother?
