Chapter 168: Turn on the heart-to-heart mode
When he arrived downstairs, Chen Chi was about to speak: "Frost ......"
"Oh, isn't this Chi Lingzi? I heard your mother say a few days ago that you're coming back. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info I just glanced at it, and I didn't dare to recognize it. A woman in her sixties carried a vegetable basket and greeted her warmly, her eyes looked at Chen Chi, and she glanced at Xu Shuang with curiosity.
"Hello Aunt Sun, do you buy so many dishes?" Chen Chi smiled, pretending not to see the other party's gossip eyes, "Let's go out for breakfast." ”
Xu Shuang lowered the corners of his mouth, revealing a shallow smile, and let Chen Chi deal with it.
The two met two or three acquaintances of Chen Chi along the way, and finally walked out of the gate of the community, Chen Chi breathed a sigh of relief and looked sideways at Xu Shuangjiang.
In the past, he would have praised her for her good cooperation, but he didn't dare to ridicule her at this time. There were twists and turns last night, if this matter is not handled well, it will leave a shadow in Xu Shuang's heart, and there will be a gap between the family in the future.
Chen Chi put aside all kinds of troubles for the time being, and took Xu Shuangchuan to have breakfast first, Xu Shuangchuan couldn't have an appetite, so he ate a little casually. There were many people on the street, not a place to talk, so Chen Chi took her to a remote place.
In Chen Chi's town, there are many snack bars, shops selling clothes, shoes, mobile phones and medicines, supermarkets and cinemas, but there are no places for people to talk quietly.
Seven or eight miles away, there is indeed a park, flowers and trees are sparse, the environment is quiet, but Chen Chi can't bring Xu Shuang there, one he knows, uncles and aunts love to go there, even if his community, there are some retired uncles and aunts who are not too far away, specifically run there to pacing; 。
With apprehensive thoughts, Chen Chi pulled Xu Shuangchuan along a secluded road to walk. Walking past a cotton shop, and then passing a homemade pastry shop, under the bridge a wrinkled old woman spread a piece of homespun cloth to sell herbs, and when she saw a passerby, she opened her mouth and asked, "Do you want honeysuckle?" Do you want dandelions? Do you want soul rejuvenation grass? Do you want detachment grass?"
Xu Shuang glanced at it more, and there were piles of branches and blades of grass on the homespun cloth, fresh, full of freshness, and still carrying dirt, dry and completely dry, all of which were gray-brown leaves that could not be distinguished from their original faces.
Chen Chi saw that Xu Shuangchuan was interested, and translated the old grandmother's strong and authentic native accent to Xu Shuangchuan: "She said that they were all picked by herself, and if she wanted it, she would sell it to us cheaply." ”
Xu Shuangchuan shook his head apologetically at the old grandmother. Chen Chi easily found an opportunity to communicate with Xu Shuangchuan, and continued on the topic: "Some people in our community will buy and occasionally get some herbs to soak their feet. ”
Xu Shuangchuan didn't answer. She looked under the bridge, and the slopes on both sides of the bank were turned into vegetable beds, and the vegetables grew green. After crossing the bridge, there is a grocery store under the bridge on the other side, and a bicycle is parked in the shade of the tree in front of the shop, and a white foam box is carried on the back seat of the car, with the words "old steamed bun" written on it. Next to it was a tricycle with a large tea bucket in the back, and when the man saw Chen Chi and Xu Shuangchuan, he shouted, "Do you want milk?"
Chen Chi glanced at Xu Shuangchuan again, and hurriedly asked, "Shuangshuang, you didn't eat much just now, do you want to buy a steamed bun to eat?"
Xu Shuangxia shook his head.
"That'...... Do you want to drink milk?"
Xu Shuang turned his head and didn't take the stubble.
Chen Chi suddenly smiled, she didn't want to eat it, that is, she was interested in other people's home-grown milk. He explains: "There are cows in the neighborhood that are milked and sold. In the past, it was sold in the streets and alleys, just like a tofu shop selling soy milk, so the whole bucket was picked out, and my mother also bought it, and took an enamel bowl to pick it up. Now there may be fewer people buying this bulk milk, and the people who sell it are not very active. ”
Xu Shuang was silent for two seconds and retorted: "No, on this kind of hot day, there is a lot of shaking on the road, and fresh milk will turn into yogurt." ”
As soon as she opened her mouth, Chen Chi instantly felt comfortable and relaxed. Look at how tacit he and the blue-gray soft-shell crab are, as long as she looks at her, he can guess her focus almost the same. He took advantage of the situation to put his arm on Xu Shuangshuang's shoulder and boasted affectionately: "My family Shuangshuang is the smartest." ”
On a sunny day in July, the sun was already high at nine o'clock, Chen Chi went to the grocery store to buy two bottles of water, and the two continued to walk along the road. There were no more shops in front of them, and there were fewer and fewer pedestrians, except for one or two old men sixty miles away who came up from behind them with empty burdens, and flew forward with arrows, probably as if the nearby villagers had finished selling their vegetables and returned home. There were not many vehicles on the road, only agricultural three-wheeled trucks carrying two fat pigs happily drove by, and a tractor loaded with round watermelons suddenly occupied the middle of the road.
Chen Chi led Xu Shuang to fall, took two steps and fell into the shade of the tree, and walked two steps to the shade of the tree, the bright and jumping sunlight on their shoulders and feet, drawing mottled patterns from time to time.
The morning is still warm and does not burn everything.
"Shuangshuang," Chen Chi looked at Xu Shuang's calm expression, considered his words, and said slowly, "Yesterday's conversation between my father and me was aimed at me, don't take it to heart." ”
Xu Shuang was silent.
"In two days, I'll take you to my uncle's house. Even if you go out to live, you won't be able to stay for two days, so why move around?"
Chen Chi waited for a while, but didn't see Xu Shuang and said with a straight face: "I won't go to your uncle's house." ”
He breathed a sigh of relief, his blue-gray soft-shell crab had always been sensible in major matters. This time he was going to pay homage to his grandmother's grave during the holidays, Xu Shuangchuan had already agreed to accompany her, she was afraid that her mother was a little taboo in this regard, so she didn't say anything, and specially told Chen Chi not to make this arrangement in front of her mother-in-law.
Chen Chi cherished Xu Shuang more and more, and said softly: "Shuangshuang, you live outside, how can I rest assured? My family is your family, my family is your family, I know it's easier said than done, so you should ...... for me."
The mobile phone rang suddenly, Chen Chi stopped, and looked: "It's my cousin's phone." ”
"Siya, what's the matter?"
"Brother, I'm at your house. Didn't my aunt ask me to find someone to paint my sister-in-law's bridal makeup? I went to inquire yesterday, and there are two wedding shops in our town, one of which is too busy to spare time, and the other can, oh, by the way, they also asked if they wanted to take wedding photos, but the time was scheduled for a week at the earliest. ”
Gu Siya didn't stop breathing, and continued to report: "I went into the city yesterday, and everyone made an appointment a few months in advance, so I can squeeze in just by renting a wedding dress and makeup, but the road is far away, and I'm afraid that my sister-in-law will have to get up very early that day." Another way is to bring in a makeup artist. Brother, what do you see? Ask my sister-in-law, if she wants to go to the shop in the town or in the city, I can accompany her. ”
Chen Chi listened to Gu Siya's muttering, raised her eyes to see Xu Shuang, she stood on the side, looking at the vegetable fields on the side of the road.
"Frosty, my cousin has been to the bridal shops in town and in the city. ”
Xu Shuangchuan didn't react. (To be continued.) )
