29. Go home
The autumn breeze is picking up and the weather is getting cooler.
The September wind was slightly cool, and the autumn and winter in the north came early, and the weeds on the ground were already dyed with a hint of earthy yellow.
A footstep on it, the grass fell to the side, and then the breeze blew, and after a few light tremors, the grass stood trembling against the yellow branches and leaves, and was proud of it.
Time flies like a white horse, at this time it has been two years since Agarwood arrived in the border city, some time ago Agarwood just had a birthday, Mama Mai opened a few tables to improve the food for the people in the house, and everyone who was happy saw her and said with a smile and a word of blessing.
Looking at the oily mouths passing by, Rao is agarwood couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth.
Is this a celebration of her birthday? But how can she get together, and she thinks that looking at her with those eyes is like looking at fat! It's a little more infiltrating!
Secretly shivering, Agarwood carried a small and delicate bamboo basket and walked to the back hall.
Now two years have passed, the agarwood is going up very much, more than two years ago, although the body is thin, but the complexion is fair and ruddy, big black eyes, embedded in the palm-sized porcelain white face, lined with pink cherry lips, indescribably delicate and beautiful.
Especially, when she has a wooden face and replies seriously, it is really gratifyingly tight.
At least in Mama Mai's opinion, agarwood is really the most lovely little girl in the world~~
Stepping into the door, Mama Mai was checking a four-sided landscape embroidery screen sent from the shop outside, and when she saw Agarwood coming in, she immediately showed a kind smile on her face, and hurriedly beckoned, saying:
"Agarwood is here, come, come and see, this screen is doing well, Mama look, it's just right to put it in your house, you take a look, do you like it?" If you don't like it, look for another one.
Agarwood greeted Mama Mai, and her eyes swept to the screen, but she didn't panic and picked up the flowers and branches in the basket, fresh and tender, still with dew, crystal clear, not to mention how beautiful it was.
Mama Mai likes to put flowers in the house, which is both fragrant and elegant, and Agarwood often twists some beautiful ones to replace Mama Mai's house.
As she took the wilted branch out of the bottle, she replied:
"Mama, you know, in a few days, Grandpa Guo should return to Beijing, agarwood has to go with him, such a delicate and good thing, it is a pity to put it in my room."
The important matter of the border city has come to an end, a few days ago, Jingzhong came to the will, to Shen Jingzhong to return to Beijing, this matter is naturally not to be neglected, the house is already cleaning up, there is no doubt that Agarwood, as the big girl next to Shen Jingzhong, will go back with him.
As for Mama Mai - originally Shen Jing Zheng intended to let Mama Mai return to Beijing with her, saying that she would return to her homeland and give Mama Mai a leisurely pension. But Mama Mai didn't want to do it anymore, saying that she had stayed in the border city for decades, and she was alone, but now the border city was her home, she didn't want to leave this place, and declined the kindness of Grandpa Guo.
Yes, agarwood has such a saying, this screen is a valuable object at a glance, she is leaving, so a valuable thing in her house, waiting for the dust to drown!
Thinking of this, without waiting for Mama Mai to say anything, Agarwood said again,
"You might as well leave it in your house! This screen is embroidered brightly, put it in the inner room one by one, you look at it every day, and the picture is beautiful in your heart! ”
The older she gets, the more she loves bright things!
When Mama Mai heard this, her eyes narrowed into a slit, and she bent the corners of her lips with a smile, and she was in a good mood, and said:
"You girl, if it's a girl next to you, when you see such an object, you can't help but move it from a house, but you don't always look at it right, Mama has taught you for two years, and I don't see you paying attention, you girl is really ......"
Mama Mai was also worried, but she didn't have a way-
Outside the shop of precious and rare antiques, calligraphy and paintings, agarwood this girl does not take a straight look, but where there is gold and silver jewelry, but also in the hand to take a look, however, her favorite is gold and silver and other yellow and white things, but whenever there is always a bag full of gold-sized plum blossoms in the purse, it is not too heavy to panic......
I really don't understand.
Naturally, Mama Mai would not know that the agarwood girl who had been a beggar was obsessed with gold and silver, and that gold and silver could buy steamed buns to fill her stomach, and those antique calligraphy and paintings would not be recognized by anyone! Can a hawker have this kind of eyesight? In the eyes of those individuals, it's like waste paper, and it's good not to be beaten as a liar!
Mama Mai casually mentioned this, and in a blink of an eye, she remembered something else.
"The salute is almost ready, the master said that he will leave in three days, have you packed up there? If you have anything you want, you have to say it quickly, and if you want to eat something from the border city, you have to hurry! When you come back, maybe when? Alas, I don't know if Mama will be able to see you at that time! ”
Talking, talking and running away!
Agarwood looked at Mama Mai sadly, and felt very uncomfortable in her heart, so she stepped forward to help Mama Mai sit down, and couldn't help but persuade again:
"Mama, are you really not going back to Beijing with us? Let's go back! I tell you, agarwood father and mother know you, know that you are good to agarwood, you go back with me, we are still together, my father said, you are good to me, he receives your affection, in the future you are my parents, our family will provide for you for the elderly. ”
Mama Mai was stunned for a moment, a trace of water crossed her eyes, and then she squinted and smiled, patted the back of Agarwood's hand with great relief, and said with a smile:
"Mama knows your intentions, and I also know that your father is sincere, so that's it-" Squinting her eyes and muttering for a moment, Mama Mai smiled and said slowly:
"Mama is alone, treat you as your own son and granddaughter, you are good to Mama, Mama understands it in her heart! Mama promised you, in a few years, when Mama is really old and can't do anything, she will go back to Beijing and live with Agarwood, okay? ”
There was a hint of seriousness in the coaxing tone, and the agarwood was all in his ears.
It's just that this result is still a little worse than she thought,
"Don't wait! Just go back with me this time, this road is bumpy, and there can be a care on the road, right? ”
Mama Mai has always had a good idea, and since she has made up her mind in her heart, she no longer hesitates, but only said with a smile:
"Look at what you said, can Mama be so useless? You, just rest assured, Mama is in good health! It's just a rush, and it's hard to get grandma. Besides, even if you go back to Beijing, you will be escorted! Agarwood is obedient! When the time comes, Mama will bring you a letter, and you will have to prepare a house for Mama! ”
Mama Mai really plans to be with Agarwood, although she is alone, she has been in charge of a mess in the border city for many years, and besides, Grandpa Guo is not the stingy master, how can she have no savings in her hands?
Naturally, there is, and, quite a lot.
Originally, Mama Mai planned to stay in the border city mansion, and with her master's temperament, she would never fail to give her this dignity. But now with Agarwood, they have been getting along for the past two years, and they are not relatives but relatives, listening to Agarwood say this, Mama Mai is really moved!
She is not a reckless person, what kind of character the Agarwood family was before, she knew five or six points in her heart, since she said this today, she would not take it as a joke, left and right - she would not make the Qin family suffer!
Agarwood didn't know what Mama Mai was planning to do, she saw Mama Mai's firm expression, and she didn't persuade anymore, but just lowered her head and took out a golden hairpin with a solid peony pattern from her purse, which was the size of her palm, and it was quite ...... Really!
Agarwood handed it to Mama Mai and said seriously:
"I'm not joking, when my father sent a letter, he brought this golden hairpin, saying that it was for you, and my father also said that if you don't dislike it, accept this golden hairpin, and then he will recognize your old man as a godmother, and then give you a pension and send your own family."
The real agarwood girl, according to the original words in the letter, came again, and when she heard Mama Mai's words, her eyes were red.
The old man has experienced more formations in his life, and when he lowered his head and raised his eyes again, he was smiling again. She took the golden hairpin happily, inserted it neatly and directly into the temples, clapped her hands, and said with a smile:
"Yes, that's it."

Agarwood stayed in the border city for two years, and consciously gained a lot, Mama Mai in front of her called her to take care of things, and then she was good at eating and wearing, and she grew a lot of size......
Eh, okay, godmother is also a mother!
It's worth the trip~~!
Agarwood leaned against the car window, poked her head out, looked back, and waved her arms until the chubby and round figure at the door became a small black dot, and she could no longer see it, so she retracted her body and leaned against the window, along the gap between the curtains, looking at the yellow ground that appeared and disappeared from time to time outside, and tilted her neck tree, which was very emotional.
Speaking of which, she has been away from Beijing for the past two years, and she doesn't know what happened to her family? As early as a year ago, the eldest brother was sent back to Beijing to run an errand, and since then, she has never returned to the border city, she has inquired about Qin Dong, saying that it was ordered by the master, to give her eldest brother a fat errand, if it is done well, the future is just around the corner.
I don't know what happened to my sister at home? Some time ago, my father brought a letter to say that my sister was not young, and her marriage could not be delayed, and my sister had to wait for her to go back before doing family affairs, but now my father and mother no longer want to get used to my sister's strong temperament.
Sisters who grew up together since childhood, and in a blink of an eye, they became someone else's family, which feels ...... It's a bit sour! There is also my father's mother, I don't know if my father's body is good, my father's leg bones hurt badly on a rainy day, and I don't know if there are many ...... Agarwood wrinkled her nose, and her eyes became more and more trance-like!
