The man led the ox cart past a house, and into a courtyard, which was much cleaner and cleaner than the large courtyard outside, and was quiet all around, with the occasional birdsong showing a little loneliness. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

Xiao Man turned his head and looked around, feeling that the surrounding houses were built a bit like the granaries of the grain station in his village, all of which were built with stones in half, built fire bricks on the top, covered with green tiles, and then painted, and the ground was ...... Xiaoman lowered his head and found that what he stepped on was actually a blue brick floor!

Out of nowhere, a woman in her fifties came out, combing her round bun and wearing a slanted buttoned placket like grandma, but her fabric is special, it is an off-white fine checkered, which looks more foreign, a blue fine flower apron around her waist, her skin is fair, her smile is hazy, she first looked at Xiao Man, and then said to Ah Gong: "Brother Mo, this is your granddaughter, right? It's not easy for you to do things with her, it's better to let her follow me, I'll take care of it for you, I'll send it to you after you're done?"

Ah Gong listened, nodded again and again and said Thank you, let go of Xiao Man's hand and said: "This is Sister-in-law Sun, Grandpa recognizes it, you follow Sister-in-law Sun to the meeting first, and when Grandpa finishes here, I will pick you up!"

Xiao Man agreed, let Sister-in-law Sun take the lead, pushed open a small red lacquered iron door and walked in.

Walking inside the iron gate, there is another courtyard, this courtyard can be compared to exquisite elegance, presumably a certain character, maybe it is the residence of the "boss" that Xiao Man and Ah Gong talked about on the road.

Sister-in-law Sun took Xiao Man to a clean and tidy room similar to a small living room, asked her to sit down, poured a glass of water, asked her name with a smile, and asked her parents, brothers and sisters at home, etc., Xiao Man knew that she was afraid that she was nervous and afraid, to relieve her emotions, and to see that Xiao Man was not nervous, Sister-in-law Sun went out, and after a while, she brought a tray, on which was a medium bowl of white rice, a small plate of braised pork slices and tofu cubes, a small plate of fried green stem vegetables, and half a bowl of egg drop soup, put it in front of her, and said with a smile: " After walking so far, you should have been hungry a long time ago, so let's eat!"

Xiao Man was indeed hungry, not to mention that the three or two side dishes looked very good, but she didn't move her chopsticks immediately.

Sister-in-law Sun seemed to guess what she was thinking, and said, "You eat slowly here, I'll send food to your grandfather, and I won't let him go hungry!"

Xiao Man said thank you, picked up the chopsticks and started eating, and Sister-in-law Sun also walked out of the door.

Sister-in-law Sun seemed to have measured Xiao Man's stomach, and after eating those meals, Xiao Man was full, but not too much.

Seeing that Sister-in-law Sun had not come back, Xiao Man spontaneously packed up the dishes and chopsticks and wanted to send them to the kitchen to wash.

When I walked to both sides of the door, I looked at the room that looked more like a kitchen, and I saw a bamboo chaise longue under a shaded pomegranate tree on the left, and on the chaise longue sat a skinny, senile old man, staring at her with slightly squinted eyes.

"Who are you?" asked the old man, his voice hoarse and weak.

Xiao Man walked over.

Sister-in-law Sun also happened to come back from outside with a basket at this time, hurriedly walked over, took the dishes and chopsticks from Xiao Man's hand, and said to her with a smile: "Don't be afraid, this is Mr. Sun." ”

He leaned down again and said to the old gentleman Sun, "This girl is the granddaughter of Brother Mo who sent medicinal herbs to our family, and her name is Xiao Man. ”

"Oh, Amu's granddaughter, yes, a good boy!" Mr. Sun looked straight at Xiao Man.

Xiao Man bowed to Mr. Sun and greeted him politely: "Hello Grandpa Sun!"

Mr. Sun snorted and said, "Sit down." ”

Sister-in-law Sun looked at Mr. Sun with some surprise, hurriedly brought the bowl and basket into the house, and quickly brought a single stool, put it on the right side of Mr. Sun's bamboo chair, and motioned for Xiao Man to sit: "Your grandfather will have to finish it for a while, you can talk to Grandpa Sun here first, he is not in good health, and he doesn't often see people outside, it's rare to see you today!"

Xiao Man agreed, sat down on the stool, and turned his eyes from Mr. Sun to the pomegranate treetops, the huge pomegranates were faintly about to break the skin, and they would be able to eat it in about ten days and a half months.

Mr. Sun's facial expression was stiff, and his eyes were straight, no wonder Xiao Man felt that he was always staring at himself just now, and when he saw his sister-in-law leaving, Xiao Man looked at the tree with both eyes, and Mr. Sun said, "The girl wants to eat this fruit, go pick one." ”

Xiao Man shook his head: "Thank you, Grandpa Sun, it's still sour now, and it will be delicious if you stay for a while." ”

Sister-in-law Sun came out with a dustpan of white rice, squatted next to her and picked up the small sand in the white rice, while the old and the young continued to talk.

"My grandfather said that Grandpa Sun is a very famous miracle doctor!"

"Exaggeration. ”

"Ah Gong also said that your acupuncture is amazing, if you can prick a needle for my grandma, my grandma's eyes can be restored. ”

Sister-in-law Sun looked up at Xiao Man and sighed softly.

Mr. Sun closed his eyes, and the corners of his mouth moved, as if he smiled bitterly: "Girl, I haven't been able to take a needle for more than ten years, and I haven't seen a doctor for a long time...... I told your grandfather that your grandmother can go to the hospital for surgery. ”

"The doctor in the hospital who could perform that operation, he was transferred. ”

Mr. Sun sighed: "This is fate, you can only blame God!"

There were a few light buttons from the iron door, and Sister-in-law Sun put down the dustpan: "It's Brother Mo who came to take his granddaughter, do you want to see it?"

Mr. Sun said: "It's the same if you can't see it, I'm tired!"

"Then I'll send the little girl out. ”

Mr. Sun still didn't open his eyes, but he said, "Peony, bring me that ebony box." ”

Sister-in-law Sun paused for a moment, then bowed her head respectfully and agreed: "Yes, master!"

Xiaoman: ......

How do you feel like you've fallen into a time and space similar to the thirties and forties?

Mr. Sun's voice sounded in his ears: "Girl, your name is Mo Xiaoman, right? I am ninety-seven years old, and I have enough longevity, and it is good to see you as a spiritual doll before I die." You call me grandpa, and I'm going to give you a greeting gift......"

Sister-in-law Sun put a jet-black box exuding warmth and brilliance in front of Xiao Man, and opened it, there was no gold and silver jewelry in it, just a few strings of old wooden beads, a few thread-bound books, and two leather covers.

Mr. Sun said: "Those beads are very good, they are all blessed by the monks, can ward off evil spirits and add luck, with me for a lifetime, will always be distributed to children and grandchildren, you take one!"

Xiao Man's words of resignation were already on his lips, but when he looked at the top of the few thread-bound books, he closed his mouth tightly, and couldn't take his eyes off, and finally gritted his teeth and leaned over to grab the book in his hand: "Grandpa Sun, can I choose this book?"
