At noon, the sun was rising, and the leaves on the trees were drooping. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

The weather in July was a bit hot and dry, which also made Gu Sisi sweat after playing pigweed on the side of the mountain for a while. casually wiped the sweat on his forehead with the handkerchief prepared by his mother, looked up at Qinghe next to him, his eyes shone brightly, but then extinguished the idea of wanting to play in the water at that moment.

In the past, like most children in the village, Gu Sisi liked to run to the river to play and touch small fish and shrimp. No, there are already a few children who are not afraid of the heat by the river and have a lot of fun there.

The water by the river is very shallow, and there is a large lotus flower not far away, most of the lotus flowers in full bloom are pink and white, and the buds are mixed in, the emerald green and dark green lotus leaves are swaying in the wind, and occasionally a few dragonflies are flying around.

There is a deep pool in the middle of the river, and adults warn children not to go to the middle of the river. I heard that there were disobedient people before, and the bold baby swam to the middle of the river and was drowned, and he was not rescued. After that, the children only played by the river, and did not dare to swim deeper.

A breeze blew, Gu Sisi came back to his senses from his thoughts, smiled, carried a bamboo cage full of pigweed, and walked to his grandfather's house with his little short legs.

In the shade by the river, at this time, a few women who were not afraid of the heat were washing clothes, and I heard someone call her name from afar, "Siwa'er, you are really diligent, and you go to hunt pigweed on such a hot day." ”

The woman who said this, Gu Sisi, knew Aunt Zhou, the daughter-in-law of the second eldest family of the Mu family, Aunt Zhou is a kind-hearted person who usually loves to help people in the village, so most families have a good relationship with her. Her daughter Mu Yingying is in the same class as Gu Sisi, and she is also one of the few good friends of Gu Sisi when she grows up.

Gu Sisi didn't know what to say back, so he waved his hand and gave a big smile, which was regarded as a greeting. Aunt Zhou didn't mind, she said that the baby was shy, and said that she would let Gu Sisi come back to the house and play with her family.

"What do you say this old lady of the Gu family thinks, she is all her own children, why is she so harsh on her second wife?" said a woman washing her clothes and the person next to her.

The woman who was bored in the laundry didn't raise her head and said, "No, although Guoren has been passed on to his uncle since he was a child, he is still a child after all." ”

Another woman turned her head and interjected: "I heard that Guoren has to pay her half of her salary every month, and she has to pay an extra thirty yuan every month for her two children." You said that this family is not happy to die, happily take care of it, why can't you see this old lady can't carry it?"

The women around him were talking in a low voice, but Gu Sisi could hear it clearly. I thought that there was no one who didn't gossip about this person, it was really a good thing that didn't go out, and a bad thing spread thousands of miles. But it's not wrong to spread it, it seems that the reputation of my grandmother is really not good as always.

Gu Sisi didn't stop, and hurried back to his grandfather's house. When I went to the house, I put the bamboo cage next to the pigsty, fetched cold water by the well, washed my little hands and faces, and then trotted to the hall, and as soon as I entered, I saw my grandfather weaving a bamboo basket in the shade, turned around and took my own small bench, and sat next to my grandfather. I didn't see my grandmother, so I guess I'm already taking a nap.

Gu Sisi didn't squeak, his eyes stared at his grandfather's rapid weaving technique, and a bamboo basket slowly took shape. Gu Sisi grew up next to his grandfather, and his favorite thing when he was a child was to sit next to his grandfather, roll tobacco for his grandfather, listen to his grandfather hum some unknown songs, and tell some small stories and past events.

Grandpa may have been too focused on doing things, and when he ran out of bamboo ribbons at hand, he saw Gu Sisi sitting next to him. "Siwa'er, it's hot, I left you a watermelon in the stove room. Grandpa squinted his eyes and said with a smile, and as soon as he finished speaking, he got up and walked to the stove room. Gu Sisi followed like a little bug.

In the stove room, Gu Sisi looked at the watermelon with red teeth and unconsciously wanted to cry. Gu Sisi couldn't help but think of his previous life, when he grew up, when he thought of his grandfather, he would remember the rock candy full of tobacco flavor.

Grandpa always wanted to leave something delicious for his granddaughter, sometimes a few pieces of snacks, sometimes a few meat-stuffed buns, but that small piece of tobacco-flavored rock candy will always be remembered in Gu Sisi's heart.

"Siwa'er, the melon only has these few teeth, and the two teeth are kept for your brother, and my Siwa'er eats these two teeth. Grandpa gently rubbed Gu Sisi's little head with his big tobacco-smelling hand. Gu Sisi smiled and picked up the watermelon and handed it to his grandfather and said, "Master, you can eat it too." ”

"Siwa'er is good, my lord has eaten. Gu Sisi knew in his heart that this watermelon must have been left by his grandfather to avoid his grandmother, but in the end, his grandfather still didn't twist Gu Sisi, and he was very happy to see his grandfather take a bite of the watermelon.

Grandpa said bluntly, "My family is sensible and grows up." Gu Sisi thought to himself that although he was a little kid now, he would definitely be better to his grandfather in the future, so that his grandfather could enjoy the blessings that he did not enjoy in his previous life.

After eating the watermelon, Grandpa used his big calloused hands to lead Gu Sisi back to the hall. In the hall, my grandfather moved a bamboo chair for cooling in the summer, and spread a straw mat on the ground next to it. That's when Gu Sisi lay down and took a nap.

Gu Sisi was lying on the coarse cloth sheet, and his grandfather was lying on the bamboo chair on the side, holding a pu fan in his big hand, fanning Gu Sisi, in fact, it was not hot when the wind blew in the hall, but grandpa liked it, Gu Sisi felt that he was really happy like this now, if his grandmother's temper was so stinky, and his parents and brother were by his side, it would be too happy, thinking about it, Gu Sisi gradually fell asleep.

Maybe he was too happy, and Gu Sisi, who was asleep, still had a smile on his face. In the dream, Gu Sisi was even more determined to make his grandfather happy.
