Chapter 42: The City

One more

The man is indeed the man, yes.

The aura is completely different from usual......

Qi Xuan actually didn't understand the word "aura", he just felt that today's Ruan Wan was very different from usual. He rubbed his chin and thought about it, and finally felt that it could be summed up in one wordβ€”spirit! Yes, she was so angry that people would wilt just by looking at it. But right now, her spirit seemed to have completely flown away, and her eyes were very blank. It seems to be freezing in the rain, and it looks particularly pitiful at the moment. But it's not ugly at all, really, Qi Xuan dared to swear by his New Year's money, this girl is beautiful and amazing even at this time - her palm-sized little face is pale, her lips are slightly blue, and with her black hair clinging to her cheeks, it makes people feel ...... Well, can't let her go on like this anymore.

Moreover, as a pot friend, he can't watch her continue to squat on the side of the road in the rain.

Qi Xuan tried to recall what this girl had said when she persuaded herself before, and then found that ...... Aha, I accidentally forgot about it!qaq

He thought that she raised her head because he mentioned Grandma Su, and hurriedly said, "I'll send you back, your grandmother must be worried now!" After speaking, he said in an aggravated tone in fear of her disbelief, "Really!"

As he spoke, he tried to shoot a small look at her to show that his words were spicy and credible!

Ruan Wan listened to Qi Xuan's words, looked at him blankly, her lips trembled, and she showed a wry smile: "Grandma......"

"Huh?" Qi Xuan leaned in, "What?"

"Grandma, she doesn't want me anymore......" Ruan Wan said in a low voice, "Mom doesn't want me, and she doesn't want me either." Ruan Wan, who was a little dazed by the heavy rain, was already a little incoherent at this time, and her words obviously frightened Qi Xuan.

Qi Xiaoxuan was really stunned, daring to love this girl for quarreling with her grandmother! She and her grandmother didn't seem to be grumpy people, if they could quarrel, the matter should not be small, right? It was so noisy that she ran away from home...... He thought of his own experience of running away from home, and suddenly he felt a sense of hatred for the enemyβ€”everyone was a runaway from home from now on!

Good brother, talk about righteousness!

This sense of righteousness drove him to pat his chest and say loudly: "It's okay! Your grandmother doesn't want you, but my grandmother wants you!" He felt that what he said was reasonable, but he could rhyme with righteousness!

Qi Xuan couldn't help but shudder.

Ruan Wan: "......" was so speechless, she was a little sober.

Qi Xuan, who was moved by his full of "brotherly love", didn't say anything, and dragged her to stand up: "Don't get out in the rain, come home with me!" Then, he dragged Ruan Wan all the way up.

Before she could say anything, Ruan Wan was dragged home by Qi Xuan.

At this time, Qi Xuan's family was already in chaos. Can you just send that unlucky kid to get a bottle of soy sauce, and he can be missing for a few hours! What is tangled is that Qi Xuan's mother just wanted to call to find someone, but there was such a big thunderstorm, who would dare to call casually? What's even more deplorable is that the kid's head is missing tendons, what if this thunder trick lukes him up and makes him run home stupidly? If this is split......

"I'm really anxious!" The mother of the Qi family raised her hand and slapped the coffee table, grinning in pain, and the anger in her heart was even worse.

"It's not all you!" Qi Xuan's father glared at his wife, "I know that stinky boy is like a leather monkey, and he still asks him to make soy sauce......!"

Before the words fell, he slapped his wife on the back, and suddenly he didn't dare to say anything more...... No, he's letting his wife!

Qi Xuan's mother looked at her husband's breath-holding face, and her heart was a little smoother, and it didn't hurt as much as hitting his hand on the coffee table.

Grandma Qi Xuan walked back and forth at the door with old steps, and she couldn't help but walk to the wall and pick up an umbrella: "I'll go out and have a look!" What if that unlucky kid really runs back on a rainy day?

"Mom!" Qi Xuan's mother didn't care about beating her husband, so she hurriedly walked up to stop her, "Don't worry, even if that kid wakes up, he should wait until the rain stops before coming back." "No, no, mother-in-law's old arms and legs, if you accidentally slip and fall out on this rainy day, what should I do!

Grandma Qi Xuan frowned and said: "Xiao Xuan has been a tendon since he was a child, I remember that when he was a child, he once forgot the time at school after school, and when he heard thunder, he remembered that he wanted to go home, so he ran home in a hurry, and he fell on the road. ”

Qi Xuan's mother thought to herself, "Isn't it, otherwise why would I be so worried!", but she said: "You also know that it was when he was a child, he has grown up, and he will not be like this again." ”

"I remember another time when he came home on a rainy day, he found a litter of puppies on the side of the road, and he actually gave the dog an umbrella there until he forgot to go home!"

β€œβ€¦β€¦ You won't always encounter dogs on the side of the road. ”

"What if I do?"

"Then he won't at least squat on the side of the road with an umbrella now, and he will definitely bring the dog back!"

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were opening their brains when they heard Qi Xuan's father's urn and said angrily: "There is no place to raise a dog at home." ”

"Shut up!" x2.

Qi Xuan's father was stunned by the double blows of his mother and wife, and he stared at him and didn't dare to say anything, lest he be torn to pieces by these two "angry tyrannosaurs".

At this moment, Qi Xuan, who was holding a broken umbrella, stepped into the house, he looked at his grandmother and wife from a distance, and waved the umbrella in his hand: "Grandma! Mom! I'm back!"

The three people waiting at home breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.

"It's finally back. ”

"Why is he still running home on a rainy day?"

"At least not with a dog...... Uh, bring someone?"

……

The three of them were dumbfounded, watching Qi Xuan drag a girl to run home, and for a while they couldn't tell whether this was "dead and unchanging" or "qualitative leap".

When the two entered the house, they found out that the girl their son brought back was actually Ruan Wan.

The Qi family had a good impression of her, and now seeing her describe her as a wolf, they hurriedly surrounded her, shushing the cold and asking for warmth. stared at Qi Xuan, who was instantly reduced to a "picked up child", with obvious meaning-what happened to the girl?!

Qi Xuan almost didn't vomit blood, what did he dare to do to this girl!

But at this time he could not say anything, so he could only answer with his mouth - she had a quarrel with her grandmother!

The three of them understood in seconds, so they didn't ask anything anymore. Immediately afterwards, Qi Xuan's grandmother beckoned Ruan Wan to change her clothes, and Qi Xuan's mother angrily took out the towel she had prepared a long time ago and threw it on her son: "Wipe it clean...... No, go and change my clothes!" she originally wanted her son to take a bath, but then she thought that she should let the little girl of the Ruan family wash first, so Qi Xuan's treatment was "downgraded".

Qi Xuan smiled, took off his T-shirt and shorts very simply and threw them to his mother, and then ran back to his room with a towel in the scolding of "You stinky boy!", and soon came out in dry clothes. His hair wasn't long, and it stopped dripping when he wiped it off, but he still put a towel on his head...... Well, it's kind of handsome! like a boxer at rest!

When she walked to the living room, Qi Xuan's mother happened to come over with a cup of ginger tea, Qi Xuan took it and drank it, but if she didn't pay attention, her head was taken over by her own mother. He only felt that the sky was spinning for a while, and his neck almost rotated three hundred and sixty degrees, and the handsome hairstyle that he deliberately rubbed just now must not be there...... He pulled down the messy chicken nest with a bitter face, and saw his mother stuffing the towel into his father's hand, sitting opposite him and asking, "What's the matter?"

Qi Xuan then talked a little about the situation just now, and in short, he himself is now confused.

Qi Xuan's mother thought about it for a while, and felt that she had to call Ruan Wan's grandmother about this matter, so as not to worry about her old man. Coincidentally, the thunder, which was hitting hard just now, is now quieter, and it is estimated that it will stop completely in a short time. She looked at her son, who was clutching an apple and nibbling on it, and suddenly remembered something: "Where's your soy sauce?"

Qi Xuan was stunned: "Ah!"

In order to catch Ruan Wan before, he seemed to have lost something casually. Now that I think about it......

"My soy sauce!" he jumped up and was about to rush out, but was grabbed by his own father and beaten up.

When he was holding his head and scurrying back and forth in the house, the soy sauce bottle with black water was also lying in the rain and crying silently - Master, I have worked hard for your family for twenty years, and you have ruthlessly abandoned me like this!

Here, Qi Xuan's mother finally found a time to call Ruan Wan's house with a small thunder, and Ruan Wan also took a shower and changed her clothes under Qi Xuan's grandmother's Zhang Luo. The old man treated her very well, and gave her clean clothes inside, as for the outer clothes...... Ruan Wan lowered her head and pulled the hem of her skirt, knowing for the first time that Grandma Qi Xuan had actually studied in the city back then-this old man gave her "school uniform" back then.

At that time, male students preferred to wear blue robes or modified mountain suits, while female students preferred blue robes or blue jackets and black skirts, which only reached the waist and skirted to the ankles. Ruan Wan's height is about 1.6 meters now, which is about the same as Grandma Qi Xuan when she was young, so the clothes actually fit well.

Grandma Qi Xuan smiled and squinted her eyes and circled around Ruan Wan a few times, and nodded with satisfaction: "Beautiful!

Ruan Wan didn't know what to say, so she could only thank her in a low voice again.

As a result, Grandma Qi Xuan somehow actually said: "When I was young, I actually hated your grandmother." ”

Ruan Wan: "......" What's going on?

Two more

Grandma Qi Xuan sat on the bed, looked at Ruan Wan in the mirror with a smile, and said, "When your grandmother was young, she was as beautiful as you are now, and there are few young people in the neighborhood who don't like to discuss her in private." I thought your grandmother was a vixen!"

Ruan Wan's teeth hurt, her knees hurt a little, and at the same time, she had to admit that Grandma Qi Xuan was really a person who had read books, and there was really no problem with the word "smoke and flattery" and "fox spirit......

"Later, your grandfather died. Grandma Qi Xuan sighed and said softly, "Your grandfather's family said that your grandmother Kefu, she was also stubborn, and packed her things and returned to the town from the province. Your grandmother's parents felt sorry for her widow at such a young age, and they wanted her to remarry, but she didn't want to die. ”

Ruan Wan's attention was attracted, she had never heard of such a thing. She suddenly remembered the faint scar on the side of her grandmother's neck, and couldn't help but think, could this be left at that time?

"At that time, I thought your grandmother was good enough. Grandma Qi Xuan shook her head and said, "The situation was chaotic that year, and anything could happen." A few years after your grandmother came home, her parents died one after another, and she scattered the rest of the family to pull your mother alone. ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

The matchmaker came to the door one after another, all of them to help people propose to her. It's no wonder that she's a young woman, beautiful, and a little thin, who doesn't like it?"

……

Ruan Wan listened quietly to Grandma Qi Xuan's narration, and she could fully imagine how difficult her grandmother's life was back then. A beautiful young woman with gold and no family is like a child passing through the city with gold. But even so, my grandmother, who was not even eighteen years old at the time, survived strongly. It's not that it's a glorious thing not to marry after her husband's death, in fact, Ruan Wan has never felt that her grandmother is not angry with her mother because of her remarriage. Grandma is just ...... I can't agree with some of my mother's approaches, because she has never given up on her children from beginning to end, not once.

"Your grandmother's life is really not easy. Grandma Qi Xuan sighed again, "Your mother has already broken her heart, child, you can't hurt it again." She knew that Ruan Wan's affairs shouldn't be up to her, but she just couldn't help nagging.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Well, I know. ”

Ruan Wan really regretted it.

Even if he lost his temper at that time, he shouldn't have run out of the house during a thunderstorm, and grandma was so worried. What if she also runs out to look for her and falls? It's raining so hard outside that no one will find out!

At the thought of this possibility, her whole heart sanctured, and she wanted to run out immediately to find someone.

Fortunately, Qi Xuan's mother soon came to the good news, her grandmother was at home, and she received a call from her, knowing that Ruan Wan was here, and apologized to their family because her children had caused them trouble.

After hearing this, Ruan Wan finally breathed a sigh of relief.

On the other hand, my grandmother, who had just hung up the phone, was also relieved.

"How is it?" asked Su Fanghua, who was standing on the side, nervously.

"It's fine. Grandma replied angrily, "Finally, I am not stupid, I know that I ran to other people's houses, and I didn't poke on the side of the road and get stupid in the rain." ”

"I'll pick her up!" Su Fanghua hurried to the door.

"I'll go too!" Qiao, who was originally sitting on the sofa honestly, also jumped up.

Shen Ziyu also stood up.

"Give me all back!" exclaimed my grandmother, "Aren't you messy enough now?"

Su Fanghua looked at her grandmother at a loss, her expression was a little aggrieved: "I'm not worried about Xiaowan......"

"You're so worried about her, justβ€”" Grandma realized that her tone was too harsh, and took a deep breath to ease it a little, "I shouldn't have said that suddenly. ”

"......" Although Su Fanghua is already a mother, in front of her biological mother, she still shows timidity from time to time, "I thought Xiaowan would be happy." ”

She really thought that Xiaowan would be happy.

I still remember that when Xiaowan was just in the first year of junior high school, she called her and said, "Mom, when can I live with you", she was sad to hear at the time. But her mother-in-law, who has always loved to grab her handle, is still there, and she doesn't dare to take Xiaowan back lightly. Occasionally come back to see her mother, but she always doesn't give her a good look, and she doesn't dare to stay for too long, otherwise her mother-in-law will have something to say.

She actually wanted to live with Xiaowan, how could she not want her own children, but the conditions did not allow it at that time. Now that the conditions are finally allowed, Jingwei is very supportive of this matter, and the old man and Qiao Yi have no opinions. She waited for the time to come to the summer vacation, and specially rushed to tell SΓΉ Xiaowan the good news, who knows......

This will be the result.

Thinking of Xiao Wan's fierce reaction, she couldn't help but feel a little sad - this kid didn't want to go with her.

Su Fanghua originally felt that Xiaowan had become more and more cold to herself in the past few years, and at first she felt that she had reached puberty and had her own little secrets, but now it seems that she is really alienated from her.

Grandma looked at her daughter and felt that it was simply one head and two big, this character was ...... Well, to use the word that Xiao Wan casually mentioned a few days ago, it is - silly white sweet!

has been silly and sweet since he was a child, he is still stupid and sweet when he is married, and he is still silly and sweet now!

In comparison, Xiaowan, who was a bit like Fanghua in the past, is really good that she didn't continue to grow up like her mother, otherwise she wouldn't want to be peaceful in this life.

"Mom, look ......"

Grandma raised her forehead: "Anyway, don't worry about this matter anymore!"

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Oh. Hearing her grandmother say this, even if Su Fanghua was a little reluctant, she could only respond honestly.

At this time, the grandmother, between her words and deeds, she showed the atmosphere of "the top of the food chain", as an adult, Su Fanghua did not dare to brush the tiger's whiskers lightly, and the other two small fish and shrimp were obviously even less courageous.

Not long after my grandmother taught her daughter, I saw my little granddaughter who was worried about her coming in from outside with an umbrella. Not to mention, it's really amazing at first glance. At this moment, this sudden thunderstorm has been carrying a heavy dark cloud skirt and preparing to leave, and the skirt is swinging, and a little raindrop is falling. The slender girl wore a blue jacket and black skirt, and stepped into the door with an oil-paper umbrella, looking from a distance, just like the "Rainy Lane Girl" with a little melancholy like a lilac in the poem.

Everyone was stunned.

Well, except for grandma. At first glance, she couldn't get angry. This bear child! Her old man was worried about dying at home, and she actually changed into a school uniform to play with an oil-paper umbrella and played in the rain alley, and she wanted to kill her!

So as soon as Ruan Wan, who was still "fairy-like" just now, entered the door, she was grabbed by her grandmother's ear.

The girl in Yuxiang, who was caught in her weakness, burst into tears in an instant: "Pain and pain - grandma, it hurts!"

"Pain?" Grandma [Invisible] smiled hideously, "What hurts?" ”

"Ears!" qaq

"Ears?" said Grandma hurt and strained, "Why don't I think there's something wrong?"

Ruan Wan's sorrow is simply going against the current, "My ears are going to fall out ......"

"It's fine. The boss replied without moving, "There is glue at home, and I will glue it to you if it falls." ”

Ruan Wan: "...... "Your Excellency, please spare your life!"

Well, Ruan, the boss with a level of 99 in Qi Xuan's eyes, is in front of the real *OSS, that is, a battle scumbag!

So, in front of everyone's eyes, Ruan Wan was left by her grandmother.

Su Fanghua unconsciously pressed her chest, thinking that her mother's temper was not so hot when she was a child, she imagined that she was dragged away by her ears, and she shuddered without holding back, and then heard her little daughter swallow her saliva and asked in a low voice-

"Mom...... Grandma, can she beat people?" "Mom was so pitiful when she was a child. tat

Su Fanghua wanted to say "no", but suddenly she had no confidence.

As for the legendary "evil boy" Shen Ziyu, well, that is also a sweat out of his head.

Grandma didn't know that she had left a psychological shadow on some young people, so she just swept her granddaughter back to her room like a demonic wind, and then shook her hand. Poor Ruan Wan almost didn't turn around a few times, she covered her ears, only feeling as if she had become a "big and small ear", and it is estimated that she will really have to go to South Korea for a walk in the future...... She was resentful, when she saw her grandmother pick up a feather duster from the cabinet, hit the palm of her hand a few times to test the strength, and then raised it and pointed at her: "Say, you can't run away?"

Ruan Wan's legs were weak, and she almost didn't kneel for her grandmother, and replied to a neat one: "Don't run away!"

Grandma seemed very satisfied with this answer, and nodded kindly: "Come here." ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦ You put down the feather duster first. Ruan Wan, who used to be a scheming girl, said that she would not be deceived lightly.

"Come here. Grandma's expression became more and more kind.

"You put down the feather duster first. Ruan Wan was very persistent.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ You hapless boy, let you come and hear it!"

Ruan Wan: "...... is dying! The true form of the Great Demon King has been revealed!

After a panting chase after me, Ruan Wan, who had been beaten a few times, stood against the wall with a bag of tears in her mouth, and her small appearance looked so pitiful and pitiful. Grandma gasped and sat on the edge of the bed, looking at her granddaughter's pitiful appearance, she was amused: "I don't pretend to be enough!

Ruan Wan gave a well-behaved smile and rubbed it over: "Aren't you angry?"

"I'm so angry that I've been by you. Grandma glared at Ruan Wan angrily, and couldn't help but slap her twice, "You little bastard, why are you so worry-free!"

Ruan Wan knelt on the ground, her chin on her grandmother's knees, raised her head to look at the latter, her eyes blinked, and she said pitifully: "Grandma, I can't bear you." ”

When Grandma heard this, the hand that was about to fall on her paused, and then fell on Ruan Wan's head. This child has really been coquettish since he was a child, and showing such an expression is really pitiful. If she could, she really wanted this child to be by her side for the rest of her life, but how could this be. Time is really flying, she seems to be just a child in the last second, and now she is a big girl.

Ruan Wan felt her grandmother's gentle touch, and then heard her let out a long sigh: "Xiao Wan, ......"

"Huh?"

"Grandma knows that you have a secret in your heart. ”

Ruan Wan was startled, and her body froze subconsciously. She couldn't help but think of the look she showed before she ran out of the door, the sneer, the negativity......

Grandma stretched out her hand, pressed her granddaughter who was about to stand up and say something, and whispered: "Everyone has their own secrets, grandma doesn't care what your secret is, as long as you are still grandma's Xiaowan, grandma will never drive you away." "She is old, but her eyes are not blind, how can she not notice what is happening around her.

Ruan Wan's nose was sore, her stiff body softened, and she buried her head in her grandmother's lap and stopped talking. Yes, she and her grandmother are so close relatives, how can she hide the changes in her body. However, my grandmother never pressed herself to ask anything. Grandma accepted her completely, accepted her changes, and accepted the absolutely not good feelings that she inadvertently revealed...... Not for anything else, just because she is her grandmother, and she is her little granddaughter.

Ruan Wan choked up in a low voice: "Grandma, I'm sorry." ”

Grandma felt the wetness from her knees, and said helplessly: "It's so big, why do you cry so easily." ”

Grandma didn't say that it was okay, but as soon as she said this, Ruan Wan subconsciously sniffed, then raised her head and pleaded: "Grandma, I won't cry anymore, so don't drive me away, okay?"

"Stinky girl, you've learned to threaten people. Grandma slapped Ruan Wan on the back of the head, looking aggressive, but it was extremely gentle when she landed on her hand. She rubbed her little granddaughter's soft hair, and said angrily and funny, "But when did I say I was going to kick you away?"

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Huh?"
