Several moonflower, fig, pomegranate and magnolia trees in the courtyard swayed with the strong wind, as if the branches and leaves would be blown off in the next moment, and many of the blooming moonflowers were knocked down in the muddy water, and the petals flowed away with the rain.
Standing under the eaves of the hall, a visible transparent rain curtain quickly formed in front of Gu Sisi, and the windows that had not had time to close were also crackled by the wind and rain.
Grandma's cursing voice came from the room, "Oh, this dead God, if you say that the sky will change......, the sky will change! Old immortal, why don't you hurry up and close the windows, I see that you are alive if the glass is broken!" Gu Sisi listened to his grandmother's scolding, thinking that your old man has no scruples about scolding, even God dares to scold. At the same time, I felt doubly disappointed in my grandfather's silence, when will grandpa straighten his waist?
The summer rain comes and goes as fast as it comes. The air after the rain is very fresh, and the air is mixed with the slightest smell of earth, which also relieves the heat for a while.
I just looked at the mess in this yard, the stagnant water was not drained out, and the fallen leaves and everything accumulated on the houses were washed down by the rain.
Gu Sisi immediately helped his grandfather clean up the house, and his grandmother was still scolding in the house, Gu Sisi thought that the old lady had been scolding for so long, and she was not too tired to panic, and she didn't deliberately listen to what her grandmother scolded, after all, those words were not very good!
Gu Sisi took a broom, put together the fallen leaves in the hall that were blown in by the wind and rain, and put it up with a dustpan, planning to throw it away later, and then go to help grandpa, and together they went to dredge the water that had not yet flowed out of the yard, and it took most of the day to clean it.
By the time he had done this, there was mud on his face, hands, and calves, and even the sandals he was wearing on his feet were dirty. Grandpa is the same, but not as much mud as Gu Sisi. One big and one small, just like that, you look at me, I look at you, and laughed at the same time, of course, the laughter was not very loud.
Grandpa fetched a basin of water, even though it was summer, he didn't dare to get all the cold water, and added some hot water for Gu Sisi to wash. Gu Sisi asked his grandfather to wash first, and his grandfather was very pleased, thinking that although the granddaughter was small, she was much more sensible than the children outside.
In the end, Grandpa still asked Gu Sisi to wash it first, and then Grandpa didn't change the water, and planned to wash it with the turbid water. So what's the matter, Gu Sisi insisted, saying that he would wash his grandfather in a basin again, but grandpa couldn't help but agree.
Gu Sisi poured the dirty water on the drain, turned around and went to fetch water for his grandfather, and his grandfather didn't stop him, just watched Gu Sisi swaying leisurely, and brought most of the basin of water over, and then stepped forward to take it, and kept saying in his mouth, "My baby grows up, grows up, and knows how to fetch water for the master, and the master will wait to enjoy the blessings in the future~"
After grandpa finished speaking, Gu Sisi's eyes immediately became wet, but he was afraid that grandpa would see it, so he tried hard to put back his tears, "Master, in the future, when my brother and I grow up, I will take you to the city to live in a big house, and then you don't have to do anything, you will become an ......old lady every day" Afraid that grandpa would not believe it, Gu Sisi also made an oath.
This made the old man very happy, hahaha laughed, and gently rubbed Gu Sisi's little head with his big washed hands, "My baby has a heart, a heart, Siwa and your brother grow up well, and if there is a future in the future, the master will be happy." After hearing this, Gu Sisi was moved again, and the thoughts in his heart became more and more firm.
Grandma scolded and made lunch, rolled noodles with flour, made braised noodles, and put a little oil in the soup of the braised noodles, a few green vegetable leaves, diced tofu and carrots, and even the egg grandma was reluctant to put it. There are no side dishes, or shredded pickles in the morning. may have consumed some physical strength, plus the person is growing his body, Gu Sisi didn't feel unpalatable, and actually ate a big bowl.
"Eat, eat, eat, I didn't see a few taels of meat grow when I can eat it, and when I go out, people see it, and they say that I abuse you and don't give it to you!" Grandpa said next to him at this time: "Old woman, you don't say a word, the baby is growing up, eat more!"
Grandma was not happy, she slammed the bowl on the table, and the rice bowl almost overturned, "Old immortal, it's against you, I'm her grandmother, what's wrong with her, a little girl, even if you beat her, others dare to say anything!"
"Alas, okay, okay, you can do it, I can't tell you, don't say anything, hurry up and eat. Grandpa answered helplessly.
Grandma didn't accept it when she saw it, "Oh, God, you're a thing, I'm not alive, and I can't even say grandchildren when I am a grandmother......" Grandma was crying and making trouble, and her voice was raised a little bit, as if she was afraid that outsiders would not hear it. Crying and crying to death and life made Gu Sisi stunned, grandma acted in this scene ......
Grandpa finally compromised, and grandma saw that grandpa was silent, her face immediately improved, and she picked up the bowl and continued to eat. Of course, Gu Sisi didn't miss the flash of joy on her grandmother's face, and she only felt sad for her grandfather.
Of course, the bowl after the meal is still brushed by Gu Sisi. After washing the dishes, I went out and saw my grandfather sitting by the well in the yard, holding a pipe and smoking it sullenly. And grandma ran out early at this time.
Gu Sisi cautiously stepped on the stone slab in the yard and walked towards his grandfather, "Master, smoke less, don't you still cough, smoking is not good for your health at all, you can quit yet." ā
In addition to a hobby of calligraphy, Grandpa Gu Sisi also likes to smoke, in the early years, Grandpa was a good young man, cigarettes do not touch his hands, dripping wine does not stick, and he has nothing to say about his good character. It's just that the reality is higher than the ideal, and grandpa's dream is far away from him step by step, and even after it is broken, he begins to learn to smoke little by little. This may be a form of self-exile in disguise.
"Okay, well, listen to my family's Siwa'er, you don't smoke. After Grandpa finished laughing, he poured out all the remaining tobacco from his pipe and put away his pipe.
Then, with an expression on his face as if he had made a major decision, he got up and took Gu Sisi and walked to a small room next to the hall where he put his miscellaneous items.
When I opened the locked door and looked inside, I saw several large old-fashioned carved chests and a carved cabinet in the room. I didn't know what my grandfather was looking for, but after rummaging through a few boxes, he stopped, thought for a few seconds, and then found an inconspicuous cloth bag behind a calligraphy and painting on the wall.
Gu Sisi was surprised, it turned out that there was a dark grid behind the painting, I don't know if grandma knew it. However, grandpa was so relieved of himself that Gu Sisi was moved again.
Grandpa picked up the cloth bag and walked to the carved cabinet in the corner, there was a Chinese-style horizontal copper padlock on the cabinet, Grandpa took out a copper key from the bag, opened the lock and then opened the cabinet door, there seemed to be nothing valuable in it.
Grandpa touched the upper left corner of the cabinet with his right hand and found a red cloth bag from the crack. It turns out that there is something else in the cabinet.
Grandpa beckoned to Gu Sisi who was standing at the door, when Gu Sisi walked to his grandfather, grandpa had already opened the red cloth bag, the bag was embroidered with an auspicious cloud pattern peony pattern, took out a piece of jade from it, rubbed it softly with his hand a few times, and raised his hand to touch Gu Sisi's little head, and handed the jade to Gu Sisi, "Siwa'er, take this, take it." ā
Gu Sisi took the jade and looked at it, stunned, isn't this the jade pendant that was broken in half by his brother before he was reborn.
Although Gu Sisi still likes it very much in her heart, after all, this jade pendant has accompanied her in her previous life for 20 years, but she still endured it and said: "Master, this looks very valuable, I can't wear it when I'm young, keep it, or give it when I grow up." ā
Grandpa looked at Gu Sisi with great satisfaction, "Siwa'er is wearing it to play, this is not worth much." This is the same as what my grandfather said in my previous life, no matter before or now, this jade pendant is still in my hands, is this the so-called fate with this jade?
The elder gave it to him, although Gu Sisi wanted to know most in his heart whether this piece of jade was the key to make him start again, but he still resisted the impulse in his heart, and asked his grandfather with a sigh of relief: "Master, is this piece of jade very precious?"
Grandpa turned around and locked the cabinet, pulled Gu Sisi out of the utility room, and walked to the Taishi chair in the hall to sit down, while Gu Sisi stood aside, looking at Grandpa's very solemn expression, thinking that it was finally coming, the truth she wanted to know might not be far away?
"Siwa'er, what the master comes to say, you have to keep it in mind, you can't tell outsiders, not even your parents and brothers!" Grandpa told Gu Sisi about this jade pendant.
