The boss didn't think there was anything wrong with us going, but smiled and said to us, "What's the trouble?" Our children are not at home, and my wife and I usually seem to be much more deserted. It just so happens that you can be lively in the past, or you can come to our house for dinner in the future!"

When he heard that he could often go to his grandfather's house for dinner, he was so happy that he quickly stopped and said to the boss, "Grandpa, can I really go to your house for dinner often?"

The boss hugged Liuyi with a smile, "Of course you can, but can you tell grandpa what your name is first?"

"yes, I haven't introduced myself to my grandfather yet. Grandpa, hurry up and put me down. Liuyi said anxiously.

The boss hurriedly put Liuyi on the ground, only to see Liuyi stretch out his right hand to the boss seriously, "Grandpa, hello, my name is Li Xinyue, but Mom and Dad like to call me Liuyi." Now in the first grade of elementary school, I usually like to read idiom stories and dance, because of the reason for travel, so I need to live at my grandfather's house, if this period causes you inconvenience, I hope you don't mind. ”

The boss heard my daughter's introduction, stood stupidly, and forgot to shake hands with my daughter. Or Liuyi smiled and said to the boss: "Grandpa, shouldn't you shake hands with me at this time?"

The boss came out of the shock, quickly hugged Liuyi in his arms, and said with a kind face: "How can you little girl know so much?

Liuyi said proudly: "Of course, my mother taught me, and I learned from books." Thank you grandpa for the compliment, but I had already eaten all the candy when I was in the car, so I didn't have any gifts for grandpa. ”

"Haha, grandpa has it at home. ”

Mu Xuan and I followed the boss behind, it was impossible not to be proud, I never thought that Liu Yi could know so much. Usually, I would tell Liuyi to be polite when meeting people, but I didn't teach her these things, and she actually gave me all the credit.

As soon as we walked into the courtyard, we smelled the fragrance, and Liuyi hurriedly got down from Uncle Zhang's arms. On the way here, I felt that the boss was always a little rusty when the boss screamed, so I asked the boss's last name.

"Grandma, what are you doing?

Grandma Zhang was a little embarrassed by Liuyi's praise, and said with a smile: "Do you want to eat a piece?"

I saw that Liuyi's eyes never left Grandma Zhang's pot, and I really wanted to find a crack in the ground to get into, and whispered to Mu Xuan: "Your daughter is worthy of being a snack." ”

"It's not with her mother, I remember when you were young, you were like this, you couldn't move when you saw something delicious. ”

"Is there one?"

These words were full of warnings, Mu Xuan didn't answer me, and walked to Grandma Zhang with a smile, "Auntie, if there is anything wrong in the recent past, I hope you Haihan." ”

Grandma Zhang smiled and said, "What's the matter, don't be so polite, we are also a lot of lively when you come, you don't know how long our family has not been lively." ”

After the aunt finished speaking, the sadness on her face was infected to Uncle Zhang, and the little clever man from Liuyi hurriedly came out to mediate the atmosphere, "Grandma Zhang, then I can accompany you in the future, so that you will be happy?"

"Good, good. ”

After two good words in a row, Auntie swept away the previous sadness and beckoned us to sit down with a smile, "Come, hurry up." Just buy the food, you eat some cold dishes first. ”

It can be said that the dishes on the table are very simple, and the cold dishes are only mixed with cucumbers and peanuts. In fact, every year I go home for a few days, our family is also rural, but my parents want to give the best to June Day, and the food on the dinner table is much more exquisite.

A simple meal like this seems to be a lot less. Seeing Liuyi's happy appearance, I decided that in the future, whenever I have time, I will cook for her myself. As my daughter grew up day by day, I found that I didn't know her, and I didn't know if she would complain about me.

After a while, the meals were all on the table, two hot dishes, two cold dishes, plus an egg soup, and Liuyi politely served a bowl to Uncle Zhang and Aunt Zhang first, followed by me and Mu Xuan, and finally her. Uncle Zhang and Aunt Zhang praised it again when they saw such June 1st.

I always feel that Uncle Zhang and Auntie are not like people who have an urgent life, but why do they still show envy in them? I asked suspiciously: "I just heard my aunt say that it hasn't been lively for a long time? Don't your children come back often?"

When my aunt and uncle heard my question, their expressions were not very natural, and I quickly continued, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to. ”

Uncle Zhang waved his hand and said, "Hey, it's out of the way." The children in our family know that they can't come back a few times a year to earn money. Even when I come back, I don't eat at home, I go to a restaurant to eat at every turn. I've been frugal with your aunt all my life, and after going once, I didn't think it was worth it, and I never went again. ”

It turns out that this is the case, and it seems that this is indeed the case now, and everyone likes to go to restaurants to eat during the New Year's holidays. When you think about the atmosphere of the New Year now, it seems that it is really not as lively as when I was a child. When I was a child, everyone would give the best food in the family to our neighbors during the Chinese New Year, but now in the big city, we don't seem to know what our neighbors are called.

"Uncle Zhang, then why did you two open this homestay?"

Uncle Zhang took out his cigarette pouch and was about to roll a pot, when he saw Liuyi put it up again, "Anyway, that house is empty, it's better to entertain you tourists, and my wife and I can also make a living." ”

"Grandpa, grandma, don't worry, I know a lot of stories, and I won't let you feel cold. But, Mom, what do you mean to be lonely?"

In the first half of the sentence, I still think Liuyi is very sensible, and as soon as the second half of the sentence comes out, I know that she doesn't understand what it means, although she doesn't understand, she said it.

"Lonely, let my mother think about it! By the way, think about it, what it feels like to be at home alone, what grandparents feel like. ”

The four of us adults looked at the little girl who was thinking in front of us, and saw that the little girl's face was happy for a while and sad for a while, and finally said to me with a bitter face: "Mom, in fact, I felt very happy at the beginning, after all, I can do whatever I want without you at home." But..."

"But what?" Mu Xuan said softly.

"However, then I felt very sad that there was no one to talk to me with, and I felt very cold in the room. I remember one time when I was at home by myself, and I was very happy at first, but after a long time I felt very scared. However, I know that grandparents will definitely not be scared, then they must feel very cold. ”

Everyone else was shocked by Liuyi's sensibility, but I was paying attention to what she said about being at home. When, exactly, did I put herself on vacation?
