Chapter 13: Avoiding Pain
The new "contestant" Ruan Wan also knows that it is Qi Xuan's grandmother. She was older than her grandmother, and the old man walked over tremblingly under Qi Xuan's support, holding a handkerchief in her hand, looking how weak she was.
Ruan Wan looked at it and secretly wanted to laugh, none of these old people were vegetarians. Don't look at Grandma Qi Xuan's weakness, in fact, her body is very strong, and when she killed herself, this old man was still there.
Sun Xiaotao saw Grandma Qi Xuan's formation, and her entire scalp was numb.
Grandma Qi Xuan's reputation for crying is also well-known locally, if anyone confronts her, within three seconds, this old grandmother will cry so much that she will cry a handful of tears, and the whole person will be out of breath, and she will fall to the ground when she touches her chest. You said that if she was a young person, it would be fine, but the problem was still an old man, and the doctor who sent her to the hospital could really say a diagnosis of "it's better not to give her too much stimulation". So no one really wants to play against her, if it really has three long and two short, how will it end?
However, Qi Xuan's grandmother is not an unreasonable person, and she will not cry unless she is really bullied to the door. Of course, Qi Xuan is an exception, as long as he is disobedient, huh...... Wax up!
Everyone knows that Grandma Qi Xuan's sons and daughters-in-law have gone out to work, and what she usually cares about most is the precious grandson around her. Right now, Sun Xiaotao actually said that her grandson is a gangster, it's really unbearable for uncle and grandmother!
"Whose grandson do you say is a thug?"
“…… Not...... Didn't say anyone. ”
"You're still lying!" Grandma Qi Xuan covered her heart, and her whole person was shaky, "You have the ability to say it again!"
Sun Xiaotao was almost in tears, she didn't dare to borrow her guts! I knew that she would provoke such a plague god, and she would never come out if she died!
After only seeing a few words, Grandma Qi Xuan cried faintly, and Sun Xiaotao hurriedly apologized and appeased, completely forgetting about the previous "troublemaking". Well, because what she's standing next to now is the biggest trouble in the world!
Anyway, in the end, there was nothing to do with Ruan Wan and her grandmother.
Seeing that the people who had originally gathered at the door gradually dispersed, Ruan Wan felt a sense of "life is like a dream", and then she was poked on the forehead by her grandmother: "You are really good! There were so many things on the first day of school." ”
"I even took the first place in my class. Ruan Wan replied very shamelessly, "It's a mediocrity not to be envied." ”
Grandma laughed angrily at her.
In winter, things are cold quickly, and when they go back to the dining room, they can't eat anything, so the grandparents and grandchildren take the food to the kitchen to heat it up. Ruan Wan, who was photographed aside, watched her grandmother's movements, and said in a ghostly manner: "Grandma, you teach me embroidery." ”
Grandma turned her head and glanced at her: "Why do you want to learn this again? ”
Ruan Wan originally had just a sudden idea, but now she suddenly really wanted to learn. She found that she really didn't know her grandmother really, really well, whether it was her personality or what she was good at. In my previous life, my grandmother occasionally regretted that no one inherited the craft, so in this life, let this regret disappear.
"I just want to learn, grandma, you teach me. ”
"Don't make a fuss. ”
"Grandma, teach me, teach me, okay?"
……
was stalked by Ruan Wan for a while, and her grandmother was helpless: "You still have to study." ”
"I've taken the first place in the exam!" Today's Ruan Wan is like taking Shang Fang's sword, and she is not afraid of anything, "I promise not to delay my studies, or else, I will show you the papers of every exam, and if my studies drop, you won't continue to teach me!"
Under Ruan Wan's assurance, her grandmother finally agreed, but she refused to teach her immediately today. In her grandmother's words, "the little girl's family is hot when she first learns anything", she is worried that Ruan Wanda will not sleep at night to do this, and it will be easy to burn her eyes if she delays tomorrow's class. Ruan Wan is not a real child in the end, so naturally she will not be entangled in time. Anyway, my grandmother agreed and would definitely not regret it.
All in all, the "Qinmei Incident" ended perfectly.
After that, Qin Mei didn't come to school for a week, and when she came back the next week, she didn't look so wolfish anymore, but she seemed to be completely afraid of Ruan Wan, and she didn't dare to meet her eyes at all.
But the person who has changed the most is not Qin Mei, nor Ruan Wan, who has become the representative of the language class, but Qi Xuan. He actually began to listen to the class seriously, and he was quite serious about his homework, and he was praised by the teachers of various subjects several times in succession.
Ruan Wan didn't know where this change came from, but it was always a good thing to have this change. And, after all, it doesn't have much to do with her.
And so the time passed.
Student life is boring, but at the same time, it is exciting, and at the same time, time flies.
In the blink of an eye, a semester has passed again.
After the last course, when Ruan Wan and Song Ting walked to the carport together, Yu Qiaoqiao was already waiting there. If there used to be only two people pushing the cart, now it is a three-person cart - yes, when the spring flowers are blooming, Nguyen Wan also bought a pink women's bicycle.
"It's finally a holiday!" Song Ting said with a smile, "Two months of vacation, I'm happy to think about it!"
"What are you going to do on vacation?" asked Ruan Wan.
"I'm going to go back and sleep for a few days!"
...... "Well, it's reasonable, she can't even refute it." Ruan Wan turned to ask Yu Qiaoqiao, "Qiaoqiao, what about you?"
Yu Qiaoqiao replied softly, "My aunt is going to take me to live at her house." ”
"Where is your aunt's house, and how long are you going to stay?" asked Song Ting.
"C City, probably more than a month. ”
"O City C...... It's so good!" Song Ting said with envy, "I heard that the hot pot there is delicious, but it's a pity that my family doesn't have any relatives there." But I may also go to my uncle's place to play, my uncle is in S City, I heard him say that the coconuts there are delicious, and I will bring you coconut dry coconut powder and coconut candy when the time comes!"
"That's not bad. Ruan Wan replied, "You can see the sea, but be careful of tanning." ”
"Wanwan, what about you?
"Forehead......" Ruan Wan was stunned for a moment, and then showed a smile, "It should be." ”
Song Ting and Yu Qiaoqiao stopped continuing the topic, although Ruan Wan didn't care about it, but the kindness of these two little girls still made her feel warm in her heart. Probably because of the "separation is imminent", the three of them decisively decided to make an appointment every day during this time!
After separating from her friends, Ruan Wan rode home. This season, the weather is already very hot, and the wind brought up by cycling is hot. Like her grandmother, she couldn't stand the smell of sweat, so the first thing she did when she got home was to take a shower.
Grandma's house is warm in winter and cool in summer, and as soon as I enter the house, I feel a lot cooler when I walk in the yard. After taking a bath, Ruan Wan wore a white home dress made by her grandmother, walked to the kitchen and took out the watermelon soaked in the well water beforehand, cut it and ate one or two pieces, not to mention how comfortable it was. It's a pity that her grandmother didn't let her eat more, for fear that she would get cold at a young age.
Because of the complete holiday, Ruan Wan also washed her hair when she took a shower today, so she sat in the shade of the trees in the courtyard while eating watermelon while holding a banana fan, drying her hair and taking advantage of the cold, which was also complete. Every time her grandmother saw her like this, she complained that she was "born to enjoy a blessed life", and Ruan Wan was very satisfied with this evaluation - how much is she born to be blessed?
And just after Ruan Wan finished eating the second piece of watermelon and washing her hands, her grandmother suddenly called her-
"Xiaowan. ”
"What?"
"Telephone. ”
“……”
The phone call that could make my grandmother make such a cold and hard voice was undoubtedly from my mother.
When Ruan Wan wiped her hands and walked to the shelf, her grandmother was already gone. She sighed and picked up the phone: "Mom." ”
What followed was a flurry of routine pleasantries, with topics such as "Have you received anything in the mail?", "Is you still having enough money lately?", "Are you okay?", and Ruan Wan answered them all - for months. And just when she felt that the conversation was about to end, her mother suddenly asked her-
"You're already on summer vacation, aren't you?"
“…… Well. ”
"Then do you want to come to my side for a while?"
Ruan Wan was stunned.
In my last life, my mother did say this kind of thing, but it was during the summer vacation of the second year of junior high school. She was so excited when she heard this that she decisively agreed. It was then that she went to City B for the first time, met Qiao Xinyuan, and met those people. She was really happy at that time, it was her dream to be taken to a new home by her mother. …… Originally, she did go with pure happiness, until she found out that her mother loved her other daughter more than her. Or not only Mom, but whoever she met there loved Joe more than she wished.
Loss and pain eventually turned into jealousy, which flooded her mind and made her eventually drift further and further into a disgusting bad girl.
Of course, there are external causes, but the most fundamental reason is that she didn't keep it.
Ruan Wan took a deep breath, in this life, she never wanted to set foot on the old road again, and she never wanted to go to the place that gave her more pain than happiness. It doesn't matter if she's cowardly, or if she's running away, who would be stupid enough to hit a needle when they know they can only get pain?
"Wanwan, why did you suddenly stop talking?"
Su Fanghua's voice interrupted Ruan Wan's musings, and after a few seconds, Ruan Wan found her voice and said, "No need, Mom." ”
Su Fanghua was stunned, she didn't expect Ruan Wan to refuse herself, after all, this child had always said that she wanted to live with her before.
"You've been busy lately, haven't you? I'm not going to mess with you. Ruan Wan vaguely remembered that at this time, her mother-in-law seemed to be sick, and she was very sick, and she only lasted until October this year and died.
As soon as Ruan Wan said this, Su Fanghua also came to her senses. Indeed, the current situation at home is not very suitable for Ruan Wan to come over. After all, the mother-in-law is at a critical moment...... She also felt that Wanwan had been too cold recently, so she said something like that on impulse. Fortunately, the child was obedient, otherwise she really didn't know what to do. So she said, "Well, forget it." Summer is here, I bought a few beautiful dresses the other day and will mail them to you in a few days. ”
“…… Well, thank you Mom. ”
Ruan Wan lowered her eyes and didn't tell the person on the other side of the phone the truth - your clothes have always been bought according to Qiao's desired size, so I put them on, and they never fit.
