Chapter 278
Most of the women on Green Island love to clean up, especially the older generation like Chen's mother, no matter how busy they are, at home and abroad, their husbands and children, they must always clean up and decent, of course, they themselves are even more, Chen's mother also did things chasing trends when she was young, but that is limited to buying some fashionable clothes, changing a popular hairstyle, personality, plus she has been a teacher all her life, some things that are too trendy, she has never touched them. I didn't have it when I was young, but now that I'm older, I don't think about it. So Chen Anxiu never thought that his mother would dye her hair so eye-catching in his life.
He couldn't tell what the color was, it was slightly darker than burgundy, maybe similar to the grape red kind, not only that, but even the hairstyle had changed, my mother used to have short hair, and now it is naturally short, but it feels like it's not the same as before. I don't know if it's because of the color dyed or the change in hairstyle, the whole person looks a lot more energetic.
Mao Mao also stared at his big eyes, standing there stunned, and when he saw his grandmother coming in, he didn't pounce up, you must know that he usually can't kiss his grandmother, and he will definitely be rubbed in his arms when he sees his grandmother.
Chen's mother didn't pay attention to the eldest son who was coughing and dying, and only squatted down to talk to her little grandson, "Grandma cut her hair, and she won't know grandma?"
Only then did he arch into Chen's mother's arms, hugging her neck and laughing, "Grandma, grandma." ”
Chen's mother picked him up, patted him on the back and said, "Mao Mao is the most well-behaved, and he knows filial piety better than your father." ”
Chen An said in his heart, he was really wronged to death, he was just surprised and asked a little more, why did the hat of unfilial piety be buckled, what he wanted to defend was that the cough in his mouth couldn't stop for a while.
While talking, Aunt Chen and Xu Tongtong also came in from outside with things, and Aunt Chen also dyed it, but she dyed it a chestnut color, not as conspicuous as Chen's mother's, and her hair was more compliant, probably hearing Chen Anxiu's words just now, Xu Tongtong asked as soon as she entered the door, "Big brother, do you think Aunt dyed this color is not good-looking?" I look okay, this color is better than pure black, lining the skin color, after a long time, the color has receded, and it has become a little yellowish color, and it is not ugly." ”
Chen's mother hugged Mao Mao, smoothed her hair and said, "I think it's very good-looking, Xiao Xu, don't worry about him, he is a big man, where does he know what color is good-looking or not, and he hasn't dyed it." ”
Chen Anxiu couldn't cry or laugh, he said such a sentence, offending so many people at once, he took out a piece of paper to wipe his mouth and hands, and quickly explained, "Mom, I didn't say that it was not good-looking, but I didn't get used to it at first sight, in fact, if you look closely, this hair is still a few years younger, Mom, you are out of the sky now to say less than fifty, someone must believe it." Xiao Xu has a good eye. Just now, he wondered how his mother could suddenly be so open and chose such a color, but now when he looks at his mother's attitude, he knows that Lu Dao is definitely Xu Tongtong's idea.
"Even if you still have a little vision, Xiao Xu came in and sat down, and let you accompany you for most of the day today, come and drink some water. ”
Xu Tongtong is not very good at hiding his emotions, he listened to the words just now, but he didn't have much confidence, and now as soon as everyone said it, his face obviously showed two points of pride that he was praised, and his eyebrows were crooked, "Anyway, I usually have nothing to do, aunt, you can call me if you have something, and the eldest brother also thinks it looks good, uncle?"
Chen Anxiu thought to himself, it was really a little girl, "He is in the courtyard to accompany people to look at the goods, and he will come over in a while, you sit first." ”
After Chen's mother sat down, she saw that there was not much water in the teapot, so she asked Chen Anxiu to make some new ones.
Chen Anxiu turned his head and called Li Xiaoqiao, "Xiaoqiao, you help change the pot of tea, I'll go to the courtyard to talk to my father." ”
"Oh, here we are. ”
After Chen's father came in later, when he saw Chen's mother's dyed hair, he only smiled and said that it was very good.
Cheng Linhui saw that there were guests in this house, and it was a female guest, so it was inconvenient for him to stay here longer, so he sat for a short time and said, "Second uncle, second aunt, I have something else to do at night, so I won't sit more, and I will come to see you next time I have time." ”
Chen's father and Chen's mother got up, and Chen's father said, "In a few days, the cherries on the mountain will be ripe, and when the time comes, bring the children over to eat cherries." ”
"Okay, second uncle, second aunt, there are still guests at home, don't send them. ”
The others were sent to the door, Chen Anxiu took him to the mountain to get chickens, and when he walked farther, Cheng Linhui gave a thumbs up and said, "Tianyu really has some ability, and he has chased Xu Tongtong to his hand." ”
"You knew her before?" met just now, but I didn't see that the two knew each other.
Cheng Linhui smiled and said, "It's not that I know each other, but I've met twice on the scene, Sun Yingxia's daughter, I guess she doesn't have any impression of me." ”
"Brother Cheng, you are so old, and you follow the big leader every day, except for those who have other ideas, which little girl dares to come to your side, her mother knows you. ”
Cheng Linhui nodded, "That's right, her mother takes the initiative to speak every time she sees her." ”
"Brother Cheng, as far as you can see, how is the temper of the people in her family?"
"I haven't seen his father, it is said that he runs a logistics company, and he doesn't often come out and walk around, her mother is very capable, and has a good relationship with several leaders in the city. ”
Chen Anxiu heard it, Cheng Linhui told him in a roundabout way that Sun Yingxia had great expectations for this girl's marriage.
The two talked while walking up the mountain, and when they arrived at the chicken farm, Sun Daji had already caught six chickens, and the rest of the chickens were stocked in the valley, and some people pounced on the chickens from time to time, Cheng Linhui smiled and said, "Your chicken is not delicious, how can the chickens in the market have this breeding method, put it in such a big valley to eat grass seeds and insects, and there are people to help exercise." ”
"It's not enough to feed it just by the weather, but it's true that you don't feed it. ”
Cheng Linhui asked for two more, saying that he would take them back and give them away, and when he paid for them, Chen Anxiu pushed them as usual, Cheng Linhui gave them hard, and he kept a part, Cheng Linhui is not the one who doesn't know the market, and understands that his price is much lower than the market price, "You are like this, I don't dare to come in the future, isn't this an autumn wind?"
"Your own relatives, don't you want to give an internal price?"
"Okay, it's our brother, and my brother will introduce you to more customers in the future. ”
Chen Anxiu thanked him and hurriedly waved his hand, "Don't, brother, I don't want to accept the white slip." ”
Cheng Linhui laughed, "My brother will still cheat you, who will play white stripes and who won't play white stripes, I still can't tell the difference? If they dare to repay the debt, you tell me, I will give you a head, and your brother and I still have this little face. ”
"That's fine. ”
On the way back, they met Lin Shufang, who came back from digging wild vegetables in the mountains, and talked to Chen Anxiu from afar, things have passed for so long, Chen Anxiu is not ready to do anything to an elder who watched him grow up, and this person is not living a good life now, the new daughter-in-law who married at the end of last year is not very old, and her temper is as fierce as a tigress, opened his mouth and closed his mouth to say that he couldn't afford to raise a child and had an abortion, and once a day came out, the people in the town were like watching jokes every day. Lin Shufang was so angry that she fell seriously ill, went to live with Meizi for a while, and only came back in the past two days.
Chen Anxiu called her aunt, she looked a little happy on her face, and said a few more words, and then carried the vegetable basket over.
Cheng Linhui opened the trunk and put the chicken in it, and when he saw Lin Shufang leaving, he said, "This is the in-laws of Director Jiang of the original Municipal Public Security Bureau, right? ”
Chen Anxiu was silent for a while and asked, "Brother Cheng, do you know Jiang Xuan too?"
"Why don't you know? The son of Director Jiang of the Municipal Bureau, he was the captain of the city criminal police team at a young age, at that time, there were a few people in Ludao City who were unwilling to have something to do with his family, even Mayor Huang also had the idea of introducing his niece to Jiang Xuan, who knew that Lu Dao had an accident later, this Young Master Jiang had few people who could enter his eyes before, and now Zhou Yuanguang's life is different. ”
"As far as I know, Jiang Xuan's work ability is still good, and he has solved several major cases, even if the director is replaced, there is no need to specifically target him, right? No matter how good a place is, isn't there always too much ability?"
"If you have the ability, you need it everywhere, but if you have the ability, it doesn't mean that no one can replace you, unless you are really the kind of top-notch, you are gone, and you can't pick it up later, then the leader must weigh it, the key is to see if you have that weight. Besides, if you have the ability, don't you have to have a good relationship with people? I won't talk about it before, there is Director Jiang on top, of course, who is willing to let him, as far as his criminal police captain, do you know how many years it takes for ordinary people to go up? He became a man within a few years of graduation, who dares to say that this is based on ability alone? Director Jiang is down, those who are jealous and unconvinced, who don't want to go up and step on two feet, besides, this Director Zhou ......" Cheng Linhui said this, smiling meaningfully.
"What's wrong with Director Zhou this time?"
"It's not a secret, but people outside don't know if it's true, our brother, I won't hide it from you, and don't go outside to say that Director Jiang fell, this week Director Jiang is the biggest behind-the-scenes hero, if it weren't for his report and the evidence he took the initiative to provide, just with the things that Director Jiang's daughter did, the Jiang family would not have fallen to the point where it is today, and Director Jiang can do that position, and he is not eating rice. Then again, if it weren't for his daughter's incident, Zhou Yuanguang might not have been able to find an opportunity, and he couldn't say which was more important, but he encountered a hurdle and couldn't get over. Cheng Linhui turned the car key in his hand and said, "It's strange to say that Director Jiang fell, and his son and daughter-in-law were not affected, which is a bit interesting." ”
"Brother Cheng, didn't you also say that the knowledge in this officialdom has deepened?"
"Again, it's none of our business. I'll go first, and I'll call if I have something. ”
Seeing Cheng Linhui away, Chen Anxiu felt a little complicated, went back to the building materials store to say hello, and was about to go up the mountain to work, just when Xu Tongtong was leaving, Chen's mother and they came out to give them away.
Aunt Chen said that she had been carrying things home for most of the day, Chen Anxiu took a look, it seemed to be all baby products, and suddenly remembered that Li Wenwen was almost six months now, and there were still three months, and Providence should be a father. So far, Providence is the most well-behaved and smoothest in their family's generation, at the age of twenty-four, the major events of life such as marriage and childbirth must be completed, if there is no major accident, the possibility of changing jobs is not great, and it may continue so smoothly and steadily. In his early twenties, he can roughly see the trajectory of his future life, and I wonder if Lu Dao is considered a kind of happiness?
When everyone was gone, Chen's mother went to the inner room to get a mirror, turned it back and forth, and asked Chen's father, "Is this color too eye-catching?" When I went, I wanted to dye it black, Xiao Xu recommended this color, saying that it is not easy to see if it is dyed, and it will look good. ”
Father Chen hugged Mao Mao, looked at her carefully, and said, "Okay, you really look young, I'll lead you out of the city another day, just like leading a girl." ”
Chen's mother glared at him, "Okay, how old are you, and I'm afraid that the children will hear the joke when you speak." However, she was still not very confident, and asked again, "Do you think it is really good?
"Why can't you go out, you go to the streets of the city to see, people in their seventies and old ladies have dyed yellow hair and red hair, our sister is in her sixties, and she is not dyed, aren't you only in your fifties? ”
Chen's mother stroked her hair, looked left and right in the mirror and said, "I'm really not used to it, if you want me to go by myself, I won't dye this color at all." ”
"You're just an antique, you can't catch up with the trend, this cleanup is more spirited, thanks to Xiao Xu's good vision, right, presumptuous, is your grandmother an antique?"
Such a profound word, he couldn't understand it, and when his grandfather nodded his nose, he grinned.
The baby's laughter was crisp and crisp, and Chen's father and Chen's mother were also happy with him, so Chen's mother put down the mirror in her hand and took him over and hugged him, "I'm dangling in front of me every day, I haven't seen him for most of the day, and I still miss him a little, what did you eat at noon, did you take a nap?"
Chen's father put half of the dishes and chopsticks that Chen Anxiu received into the basin, and planned to move them to the courtyard to wash, "I fried a small cabbage for him and ate it, and I also drank some pork rib soup, and I also ate a piece of small flower rolls." Zhuang Zhuang came back, and he ate two more meals with him. ”
Chen's mother pulled her trouser legs and sleeves for Maomao, "Maomao is to accompany this and that, and there is no one in the family who he is not willing to accompany." ”
When he heard his grandmother call his name, he went over and rubbed his face, and Chen's mother was happy, "At the end of this day, if you have any worries, you will have nothing to hug him." ”
*
Chen's father and Chen's mother are very painful, and he also treats himself as a big baby, just take a fall as an example, he is at the age when his butt is full of needles, except for eating, it is basically impossible to sit on the stool for five minutes, jumping every day, and it is not surprising that he occasionally falls one or two heels. Generally, if other babies accidentally fall, either cry, or get up on their own, he doesn't, he has a lot of tricks, how he fell, how to lie there, the nest does not move, he does not cry, only eyes look around, if Chen's father and Chen's mother are present, he begins to shout, "Grandpa, grandma, grandpa, grandma." Chen's father and Chen's mother were reluctant to let him go, no matter what he was doing, he would immediately put down the work in his hand and run over to pick him up. If he couldn't see anyone, he would get up on his own.
But this set is often not good when applied to Chen Anxiu, but he doesn't learn a lesson, he can't do it this time, and he will try it next time.
This day is Saturday, the family is at home, at the end of May, the locust flowers on the mountain have almost bloomed, Chen Anxiu wants to rush before the locust flowers bloom and fail, make a meal of locust dumplings to eat, the locust flowers of the dumplings should be the kind of unopened and half-opened, the powder is less and delicate. Of course, no one touched the preparatory work in the early stage, and the two who could help at home were prone to allergies to pollen, and the remaining person was small, but he was not allergic, but he would only be naughty with his eyes open. He went to the mountains to find locust flowers, picked them back and left some of them in the refrigerator, and some of them were washed and blanched in hot water, soaked and cooled, and the stuffing was very fresh when he added pork leeks and sea rice.
The window of the kitchen is open, on the windowsill is a large pot of bamboos bought last year, has sprouted, he is in front of the window and face, as soon as he looks up, he can see the tons of tons sitting on the stone table under the plane tree in the yard to write homework and the computer does not know what to read in the chapter of the year, and then look down, is sitting on a big yellow duck swaying around the fat bubble, this season on the mountain is not very hot, especially a few days ago just after heavy rain, the mountain breeze blowing with a trace of coolness, but the yard of roses and the moon season has been very good.
Everyone else is quietly doing their own things, only the fat Mao Mao is shouting non-stop, after a while he may be tired, so he called the big dad to take him down and drink some water, and came to the kitchen to ask his father for something to eat, Chen Anxiu cut a piece of melon for him, he sat there and held it and gnawed it, and asked him to wash his little paws and paws to wipe his mouth, and then he went out.
When the incident happened, the rest of the family had already made dumplings, and the table was placed by the kitchen door, and you could watch the horses running around in the yard and dragging the carriage to play.
Tonton's sports activity this semester is hockey, and he was talking about interesting things in physical education class, when he heard the sound of dadada outside suddenly disappear, and he sat on the outermost side, and quickly turned his head to look, "Dad, he tripped over his pony cart." ”
Chen Anxiu got up and looked at it, and saw that he was lying there in a small lump of flesh, still shaking his legs and looking around, and knew that there was nothing wrong with him.
After being quiet for half a minute, Mao Mao began to shout, "Dad, gotta, dad, gotta got." ”
Chen Anxiu motioned with his eyes that everyone should not respond to him silently.
Zhang Shinian lowered his voice and asked, "Does he often fall like this?"
"No, I take him to Lou Nan for check-ups regularly, there is nothing wrong with it, there is no lack of calcium, and there is no problem of imbalance in his limbs, he just loves to move, and it is okay to fall so twice occasionally. ”
"That's fine. ”
He was willing to shout people well at first, and after the last recitation, it was the same as chanting, "Dad, got, dad, gotta get ......" a high voice, a low voice, purely for the sake of shouting people.
Tons of tons wanted to hug him several times, but Chen Anxiu stopped him, "Leave him alone, let him get up by himself." ”
Maybe no one paid attention to him, this time he changed his strategy, he even climbed two steps in the direction of the kitchen, for fear that others wouldn't hear him shouting, Chen Anxiu looked funny and angry, he was sure that the clothes would definitely be dirty and couldn't be worn later.
After a while, he may know that no one really came to hug him, so he got up by himself, he was wearing a small blue jumpsuit today, and his knees and stomach were full of dirt, he was afraid that others would not know Lu Dao, and after he got up, he turned around in front of Chen Anxiu with a fat belly, showing people that he had fallen.
Chen Anxiu was simply laughed at by him, dropped the rolling pin and carried him into the house to change clothes, tons and tons of dumplings are not fast, Zhang Shichu learned and practiced more slowly, he rolled a bunch of skins for a while and a half, and the two of them couldn't finish it, and he had to praise him in his mouth, "It's so powerful, if you fall, you will get up by yourself, and the dumplings will be wrapped out later, and you will eat more, so that you and your brother will grow the same size." ”
When he said this, he was happy, grinned, and didn't need to hold it, but wanted to get down and go by himself.
After changing clothes, the pony carriage may not have had enough fun, so he continued to drag around, and when he heard the sound of a car outside, Chen Anxiu tightly admonished, "Risky, don't go outside the door." "There are a lot of people living in the farmhouse now, and it's common to have cars coming and going every day.
But this time it wasn't someone else, because Chen Anxiu and the others all heard the door of their own yard ringing.
"Guoguo. "It's a bubbling voice.
"Brother. This is another familiar voice that has not been seen in a long time.
