Chapter 41: Return
Several times, it was the same, they didn't play with the creek, and Chen Xiu saw it and asked them to play with the creek, but they didn't agree, saying that they wouldn't play with the girl, not with the crybaby, or something like that. Every time they objected, Chen Xiu would twist their ears, and the ear would ask them to love their sister, to play with their sister, and if they still didn't agree, they would whisper in their ears until they agreed. After doing this several times, they also let go, and they no longer blindly objected verbally, but promised to wait for the people to leave, what should they do.
Seeing that his son agreed and asked Xiaoxi to play with them, Chen Xiu turned around and went back to the house to cook.
Xiaoxi didn't go to self-deprecation, moved a chair into the house, came out and closed the door with his backhand, this is to prevent mosquitoes from entering, mosquitoes in summer are terrible.
Putting the chair on the middle of the street, Granny Chen came out of the pigsty house, and Xiaoxi hurriedly asked, "Mother-in-law, are you not going back today?"
"Well, I won't go back today, we'll go back early tomorrow morning. ”
"Oh......"
Seeing that there was nothing wrong, Granny Chen went into the house to help her daughter cook.
Xiaoxi sat down in her chair in frustration, a little unhappy, because she really didn't like to spend the night in someone else's house, it was uncomfortable and inconvenient. But so what, do you force your mother-in-law to go back? Impossible, you can only force yourself to endure it.
After being silent for a while, and taking a long breath of relief, Xiaoxi reacted, and couldn't help it, scratching her bare arms and legs vigorously. In summer, in addition to annoying mosquitoes, there is also a hateful creature - the black cat, a thing smaller than a sesame seed, just a black dot. But the bite is very strong, and if you are not careful, you will bite your bare skin everywhere. Some people are not very sensitive, leaving red spots after biting, and some people are very sensitive, biting a bag, and it is particularly itchy, scratching a large piece, and the connection can be spectacular and penetrating.
Xiaoxi scratched his legs, looking at the three people who were having a good time, they were not disturbed by foreign objects at all. I couldn't stop being bitten, so I picked up a chair and went back to the stove house, although it was hot, but there was no black cat bite.
After a night's rest, the next morning had breakfast, and the three grandmothers and grandchildren went home.
When the three of them walked to the edge of their own field on the hill behind the house, they heard a sound of talking from their own house below, Xiaoxi listened carefully, it seemed to be the voice of the uncle, could it be that Zhao Juan is back, it should be.
Xiaoxi remembered that in his previous life, it was about this time, and he also came back from his aunt's house, and he heard the voice of his uncle talking in his house from afar.
In fact, it is not an unpredictable prophet at all, after Zhao Juan and the others left, every once in a while, as long as they came back from outside, they heard the voice of their uncle in their house, and guessed if Zhao Juan and they were back.
When I got home, I saw my uncle and grandfather sitting around the table chatting when I entered the house, Xiaoxi and the two siblings stepped forward to say hello and prepared to go outside to play, and Xiaoxi was ready to go back to the bedroom.
"Xiaoxi Binbin, Xiaojuan, they are back, tell you to go over and play. Seeing that they were leaving, my uncle seemed to have just remembered and told him the purpose of coming here.
Xiaoxi was overjoyed in her heart, she really came back, and asked anxiously: "Uncle, Xiaojuan, are they really back, when did they come back?"
"I came back last night, and it was a little late, so I asked me to come over early this morning and ask you to come over and play, but your grandfather said you weren't in the house. It's just that you're back now, so you're going to go over and play tricks. Uncle Mi explained.
"Oh, okay. Xiaoxi pulled Chen Yubin and begged Grandpa Chen and Granny Chen: "Grandpa, mother-in-law, let's go over and play for a while." ”
"You guys, play for a while and come back. After speaking, Grandpa Chen chatted with his uncle again.
"Hmm. "It's been a long time since I've seen my friends, and I'm very excited.
"Xiaojuan, you're back. As soon as Xiaoxi entered the house, he saw Zhao Juan and Zhao Bo nestled in bed, eating and watching TV.
Seeing Xiaoxi and Chen Yubin coming in, Zhao Juan got up, patted the sheets next to her, and said enthusiastically: "Xiaoxi, Binbin, come and sit here." Seeing the two of them sitting on the bed, he quickly took the two plastic bags on the side and spread them out, "Xiaoxi, Binbin, come and eat, this is fried rice balls, this is steamed dumplings." ”
Although Xiaoxi has eaten it many times, in the eyes of others, she has never eaten it, so she twisted up a fried rice ball, chewed it slowly, and the Q bomb was soft and glutinous, "Hmm~ It's delicious, where did it come from?"
Zhao Juan handed a fried rice ball to Chen Yubin next to her, turned her head to Xiaoxi and said, "We went to my grandmother's house first when we came back, and we got it back from her house." ”
"By the way, Xiaojuan, you won't go to your mother again when you come back, right?"
"I'm not going back. By the way, Creek Binbin, I brought you a gift. Quickly climbed out of bed and went to his bed to take his schoolbag, took out two bags from it, and handed them forward, "Na, this is for you, take a look." ”
Seeing the two blue and white checkered cloth bags in Zhao Juan's hand, they seemed to be filled with a lot of things.
I took one casually and opened it, "Wow, what a beautiful shell! Where did this come from?" Zhao Juan, who looked at her naked eyes, shuddered inexplicably.
Hearing his sister's ghostly scream, Chen Yubin hurriedly opened another cloth bag, but no, there was a bag full of all kinds of shells, strange shapes, very good-looking.
Listening to her friends praise the beautiful shells she picked up, Zhao Juan was very proud, "This is what I picked up at the beach." ”
After receiving the gift, Chen Yubin's faint strangeness had long since disappeared, and he looked at Zhao Juan curiously and asked, "Xiaojuan, have you seen the sea?"
"Of course I did, I picked up these shells from the beach. ”
"And what does the sea look like?"
"The sea is so big that you can't see the edge, the water is blue, and the sandy beach, the kind of sand is fine, and it's very comfortable to step on...... And when the tide is high, we all stay at home, and when the tide goes out, we go to catch the tide, which is to pick up the shells and small fish that have washed ashore on the beach, which is fun. ”
"Wow...... I also want to see the sea. Chen Yubin was very envious.
Xiaoxi had never seen the sea before, so he hurriedly comforted: "We will see, we will definitely go back to see the sea in the future." Turning his head and looking at him playfully, "Let you see enough until you see you vomit." ”
"Hahahaha......"
After eating a few fried rice balls and a lot of steamed dumplings, they talked about a lot of interesting things that happened to Zhao Juan when she went to Guangdong, and Xiaoxi also told them a lot of interesting things that happened to her and her younger brother.
Time passed quickly, and Xiaoxi saw that it was almost time for lunch, so he took Chen Yubin home.
In the afternoon, when everyone had taken a nap, Xiaoxi took the opportunity to enter the space, and saw that the watermelon seedlings under last night had grown a lot and were ready to be planted, so he divided three plots of land, divided them separately, and planted the watermelon seedlings.
There was no hurry, only thirty seedlings, and it didn't take long to get them ready. Thinking about the hot weather outside, and for a while, Xiaoxi took out a bowl of iced pear juice, which she kept a little distance from the homemade refrigerator, so that the juice could be iced and not freeze.
A few days later, Xiaoxi found that many of the watermelons in the space were ripe, so he picked them back to the warehouse and put them away.
On this day, the sky was hot, and the summer cicadas outside the house were all gone. Xiaoxi couldn't stand it anymore, so he took out an iced watermelon (this is when the watermelon was just ripe, Xiaoxi picked a few and left it frozen next to the homemade refrigerator) and found Grandpa Chen.
"Grandpa, this is the watermelon I planted, let's eat the watermelon. ”
"Where did it come from?"
"Didn't I go to the field with my mother-in-law two days ago, bought watermelon seeds on the field, and then came back to plant them. Grandpa, you see I'm all iced. As he spoke, he handed the iced watermelon in his hand forward, it was cold, and it was very tempting in this hot summer.
"Grandpa, let's cut and eat. "The brook sucks up saliva.
Grandpa Chen hesitated, "Then how can you tell your mother-in-law about this watermelon?"
It's really hard to say, mother-in-law is not a person who can keep secrets, Xiaoxi is afraid that she will inadvertently tell the three aunts, after all, the secret weapon of space is very tempting, Xiaoxi believes that few people can resist the temptation. There is also the fact that the old man loves the young son, although Granny Chen is not preferred, but her love for the young son is not less than that of Father Chen, so when the time comes, she knows that there is space in the creek, and if the young son is not doing well, it is estimated that she will poke this thing out. Xiaoxi really didn't want to tell Granny Chen about her space.
Xiaoxi held the cold watermelon in his hand, and his heart had turned a thousand times, "Then, we cut this watermelon and ate it, let's say that you bought it yesterday, and in the future, if we want to eat watermelon, we will find a place to hide and eat it by ourselves." ”
Listening to his granddaughter's witty words, Grandpa Chen also knew some bad things about his wife, and he didn't approve of telling her about the space, so he also cooperated: "Okay, I'll find Xiaoxi in the future, and we'll hide and eat it secretly, and don't let your mother-in-law eat it." "Grandpa Chen knows that Xiaoxi will give Chen Yubin food everything he has, and Chen Yubin has a strict mouth and never says these things, at least so far, Grandpa Chen has never heard of it. If Xiaoxi hadn't told him, Grandpa Chen wouldn't have known that Chen Yubin would know something.
Grandpa Chen picked up the watermelon and took Xiaoxi to the stove room, at this time Granny Chen just finished washing the dishes, Xiaoxi called back Chen Yubin who was playing in the middle of the street.
I saw Grandpa Chen holding a round green thing with patterns on the board, as if he had about 20 catties. I've never seen this thing before, and Granny Chen is very curious, "What is this?"
"Watermelon. Grandpa Chen cut off half of it and put it in a clean porcelain basin, then put the porcelain basin in a water tank and let it ice, and then cut the other half into small pieces.
"Watermelon, what's a watermelon?"
"It's a kind of fruit, eat this red soil place, the seeds in it spit out, na, you taste it, you will know, it's delicious, it's very thirst-quenching." After saying that, he handed over a piece of watermelon.
Granny Chen took the watermelon and couldn't wait to put it in her mouth, it was cold, there was a lot of juice, it was very refreshing, and after a few bites, the heat of the whole body was reduced a little. "Well, it's delicious, it's comfortable. ”
