Chapter Twenty-Five: Chicks
Xiaoxi asked suspiciously: "Grandpa, my mother-in-law has scooped enough, why do you still scoop it again?"
Grandpa Chen said perfunctorily: "Oh, there is a lot of stew today, I'll send some to the yard, you don't care about me, you go eat yours, I'll be back in a while." ”
"Then I'll go with you, it's just right, the bowl is still hot, and we'll be cold when we come back, and it's just right to eat." ”
"Oh, no, you're at the top of the house, I'll be back in a minute, what are you going to run?" Seeing that the two children had slept and were in good spirits, Grandpa Chen was afraid that they would go to the old yard and think about the afternoon, what should they do.
It's so weird, it's not like that. Seeing that grandpa has always emphasized that he should stay at home and not let himself go, why. Is there anything in the old yard? so afraid to go by yourself, oh...... Thinking about it, didn't you scold the second master in the afternoon, this, is it...... Go and apologize.
"Grandpa, I'm going to send it to the second master. Xiaoxi stared into Grandpa's eyes.
Looking at her granddaughter's serious eyes, "Alas...... Well, it's for your second master. Grandpa Chen let out a long sigh of relief.
"Grandpa, I'll go with Binbin. Seeing that grandpa was still going to say, Xiaoxi hurriedly said, "Grandpa, I have already told my brother that he will not cry anymore, and besides, it is the person we scolded, we are not right, we should apologize." ”
Looking at the serious creek, Grandpa Chen said helplessly: "Okay, you two go, but you can't let Binbin cry anymore." ”
"yes, I see. Binbin, let's go and serve a bowl of food to the second master, hurry up. After taking the vegetable bowl from his grandfather, he urged Chen Yubin to leave.
Looking at the backs of the two children in the distance, Granny Chen said worriedly: "Why did you let them go, what if they cried again?"
Grandpa Chen was indeed relieved, and said briskly: "It's okay, Xiaoxi is measured, and he will be optimistic about Binbin." ”
At this time, it was more than five o'clock in the afternoon, the sky was still bright, the second master was collecting grain in the yard, and the Xiaoxi sisters and brothers spared the old house and greeted when they saw it: "Second master, collect grain." ”
"Well, Xiaoxi and Binbin are here. Although he was scolded by Chen Yubin in the afternoon, the second master didn't take to heart what the child said when he was anxious, and greeted the two sisters and brothers as usual.
Xiaoxi pushed Chen Yubin, Chen Yubin remembered what his sister said on the way here, "Binbin, later, I have to apologize when I see the second master, it's not right for you to scold people in the afternoon, you know?"
Speaking of this, Chen Yubin said anxiously: "But I didn't mean to scold the second master, I was very angry at that time, and I didn't know what I said." ”
Xiaoxi lowered his voice and soothed: "I know you didn't mean it, and the second master also knows that you didn't mean it, but you always scold people, and if you scold people, you have to apologize, and he is still our second master, our elder." ”
Chen Yubin asked anxiously: "Really, the second master knows that I didn't mean to scold him?" ”
Seeing that the second master didn't look angry, Chen Yubin slowly moved in front of the second master, swallowed his saliva, and said in a whisper, "Second master, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to scold you today." ”
The second master patted the ash on his hands, touched Chen Yubin's head, and said with a smile: "I know we didn't mean it, it's okay." Then he frightened with a tiger face: "It can't be like this in the future." ”
Chen Yubin raised his head in surprise, gave the second master a bright smile, and nodded violently, "Hmm." Then he happily turned back and smiled at the creek.
Xiaoxi shook his head funny, remembered the bowl in his hand again, and said to the second master: "Second master, I stewed pork legs at home today, come and send you a bowl." ”
The second master knew that this was an apology to himself, and he was happy in his heart, but he said in his mouth: "This Chen family brother is too (redundant), what are you doing so politely, what a big deal." ”
Xiaoxi thought to herself, if the etiquette is not complete, I am afraid that you will complain again, but there is a smile on her face, and she said politely: "This is as it should be, after all, we have done something wrong." I didn't want to continue this topic, Xiaoxi hurriedly diverged, "Second master, it's going to be dark this day, we won't delay you in harvesting food, you go and vacate the bowl, I'll go back with my brother." ”
"Yes, wait a minute. After saying that, he took the bowl in Xiaoxi's hand and went to the stove room.
When the second master entered the stove room, Zhao Juan ran out of the house, approached Xiaoxi, and asked, "Xiaoxi, what's wrong, I heard that your mother is gone?"
Xiaoxi hurriedly pulled Zhao Juan aside and whispered: "Don't ask more, my mother went to Guangdong, Binbin is very unhappy, you can't talk about this in front of him, otherwise he will cry again, no, this matter can't be mentioned in the future." ”
Zhao Juan pursed her lips and muttered, "Okay, I know, I won't mention it in the future, okay?"
Xiaoxi smiled and patted her cheek and praised, "Hmm...... That's good. ”
Zhao Juan tore Xiaoxi's strange hand away, covered her face, her eyes bulged, and she said coquettishly: "I hate it." "I was about to pinch Xiaoxi's face, and the two of them started to fight around with you.
"Hahaha......" The second master vacated the bowl and washed it by the way, and when he got out of the stove room, he saw Xiaoxi and Zhao Juan fighting.
"Alright, alright. Xiaoxi hurriedly grabbed Zhao Juan's hand, and she was about to laugh, "I have to go back, bye." After speaking, he took the bowl in the second master's hand, greeted him, and pulled Chen Yubin back.
"Binbin, what you just did is awesome, we did something wrong, we should have the courage to admit our mistakes and apologize. Xiaoxi turned his head to look at Chen Yubin and praised.
Chen Yubin smiled sweetly at the creek as if he had eaten honey.
Well, it's so cute, Xiaoxi pretended to take out a few dates from his pocket, put them in Chen Yubin's hand, and said, "Binbin, come, this is a reward for you." ”
Chen Yubin looked at the jujube in his hand in surprise, and was very happy to hear that it was a reward for himself, and then gave half of it to Xiaoxi, and said, "Sister, you can eat it too." ”
Woo, this guy, why are you so sensible, blinking her eyes, Xiaoxi felt that Chen Yubin was about to earn her own tears.
"Grandpa, we're back. Brook put the bowl on the stove and sat down on the stool to prepare for dinner. Well, it's cool, it's not hot and it's not too cold, it's warm, and it's just right to eat.
After eating, Granny Chen washed the dishes, Xiaoxi and his younger brother returned to the circle, and Grandpa Chen went to pour food into the chicken trough. When I came back, the water for washing my feet was boiled, and the family washed their faces, soaked their feet and went back to sleep.
I didn't have a dream all night, and the next day I started school again.
Time passed quickly, and in a blink of an eye, she changed out of her cloth shoes and put on cotton shoes, and the weather was getting colder and colder.
Xiaoxi's is a yellow sweater with dark red woolen pants, and Chen Yubin's is a purple sweater with dark red woolen pants, and the pattern is very good-looking. Chen's mother is skillful, there will be a lot of patterns when knitting sweaters, and different stitches are combined to turn out a lot of new patterns, and the whole second team knows that Chen's mother will have many patterns and knit sweaters that look good.
However, there is a disadvantage that Chen's mother never seems to know how big the pullover is, and Xiaoxi and Chen Yubin have a hard time putting on and taking off their sweaters every time.
After wearing it for two days, Xiaoxi took off her woolen pants, because it was so bloated that she couldn't retreat in her woolen pants. Children are frost-resistant, wear a pair of autumn pants, and put pants on the outside. But the sweater can't be taken off, the legs are still frozen, but the upper body can't be frozen, so I can only spend a little more time every day to do the right thing with putting on and taking off the sweater, alas.
Spring is on, the weather is getting warmer and warmer, and it's time to change out of cotton shoes.
The child's feet grow fast, Xiaoxi's cloth shoes last year can no longer be worn, and so is Chen Yubin's, so Granny Chen took out two pairs of cloth shoes made by Chen's mother for one person last year.
The two children took off their cotton shoes and tried them on, one pair of Xiaoxi's two pairs of cloth shoes were too squeezed to wear them, and the other pair was also squeezed but could still be worn until summer. Chen Yubin's two pairs of cloth shoes, one pair is a little squeezed, and the other pair is very suitable and loose. Chen's mother was enlarged when she did it, who would have thought that these two children's feet could grow so fast.
As soon as the cold winter passed, everything came back to life. On this day, Teacher Jiang plans to take a group of children to play outside. After locking the classroom door, he led the Scouts to the back mountain.
The back mountain is actually not high, just a dirt bag, but it is very wide, a road in the middle leads to six teams, and the dirt bag is five teams.
On the back mountain, there is a large lawn, and Mr. Jiang brought them here to play.
Teacher Jiang counted the number of people, and when it was enough, he clapped his hands to signal everyone to be quiet, and said, "Okay, let's play a game here today." Then I chose a place not far from the children to sit down without disturbing each other, took out the insoles in my handbag and began to tie them up.
A tall and strong mother chicken, with a bunch of radish heads behind her, and a skinny boy playing "eagle catching chickens" as an eagle. After playing for half an afternoon, everyone sat in a circle and began to play with lost handkerchiefs.
At the end of the game, Mr. Jiang looked at the watch on his wrist, and it was time to get out of school in another hour, so he put his things into his handbag, got up and patted the grass clippings, and said to the children who were playing on the side: "Students, everyone is playing here, don't run around, the teacher will go do something, and he will be back in a while, ah." Seeing that the children were obedient, he walked down the mountain.
Xiaoxi saw that this was not going to the fifth team, what were you doing, so she pulled Zhao Juan and Chen Yubin to follow from a distance, and two other girls also followed curiously.
When he came to a house next to the bamboo forest at the foot of the mountain, Mr. Jiang found the five of them and said funny, "What are you doing here?"
Xiaoxi and they smirked and didn't say anything, so Teacher Jiang said helplessly: "Okay, since you are all here, just follow it, don't lose it." As they walked towards the house, the children breathed a sigh of relief, looked at each other and followed.
When I entered the house, I found that the house was very dim, and there were several wooden shelves, each shelf had five layers, and it was full of yellow fluffy chicks, "chirping", which was very cute, and several children were cute like getting started.
Seeing that the owner of the house gave Mr. Jiang a cardboard box, Mr. Jiang handed over a banknote, oh, it turns out that Mr. Jiang is here to buy chicks.
On the way back, a few children told Mr. Jiang how cute the little chicks were just now, and they were very excited. The chirping of a group of children should be the same as the "chirping" of the chicks in the cardboard box, which is very pleasant on the mountain path.
After returning to the back mountain, the children who were still playing in the same place rushed up, knowing that the cardboard box in Mr. Jiang's hand contained chicks, and they all rushed to see it, so Mr. Jiang put it aside and watched them play with a smile.
After a while, seeing that the time was almost up, Mr. Jiang took the children back to school.
