The old lady came out of the room, wearing a buttoned blouse and a woolen skirt underneath, as elegant as an old mother in a classic movie.

We stepped forward one after another and shouted affectionately: "Aunt Ding! ”

Aunt Ding leaned over Ah Po's head and patted her head and complained, "Listen to the voice, you know it's you, kid - I can't even reach your head." ”

Xiaohui covered her mouth and smiled: "It's okay Aunt Ding, he won't grow any longer." ”

Aunt Ding glanced at Xiaohui and said, "Do you still bully him often?" ”

Xiaohui was surprised: "Do I often bully him?" ”

We all looked at her, laughing and not saying a word.

Aunt Ding looked at Wushuang again and asked him, "Which of these two ladies are your boyfriend?" ”

Wushuang said helplessly: "Aunt Ding is me, Wushuang!" ”

Aunt Ding smiled: "I know it's you, but it doesn't prevent me from asking you that question, right?" ”

Wushuang spread his hands and said, "I don't have a girlfriend yet." ”

"Then you have to hurry, beautiful men are more likely to be narcissistic than women, you should already think about it."

Wushuang: "......"

Aunt Ding finally took Catherina's hand, carefully examined her face, and said with infinite admiration and emotion: "Beautiful girl, where are you from?" ”

Catherine laughed: "From a distant kingdom. ”

"So you're not a couple with Wushuang?"

Catherine shrugged.

Ah Po said: "Aunt Ding, don't mess around, the beautiful girl already has a surname." ”

"Oh?" Aunt Ding looked at me and said, "It's your ......."

"It's not!" I hurriedly said, "This is Catherine, she is the princess of the Fuga Kingdom. ”

"Oh I know, that's a real kingdom." Aunt Ding looked at Catherine and said: "From this point of view, you are a real princess, but it is a little more difficult to fall in love, and you have to pay attention to the right words - as far as I know, the youngest prince in the world is over 50." ”

Catherine laughed: "I never wanted to marry a prince. ”

Xiaohui said: "Actually, I think it's a tragedy for a princess to marry a prince. ”

We looked at her together and wondered, "Huh? ”

Xiaohui Zhenzhen said: "Think about it, if you can't marry close relatives, then the princess and the prince will definitely not be from the same country, the only way for them to unite is to be close, they will not love each other." ”

We: "......"

Aunt Ding smiled: "Look at what we've been talking about for the past half a day, come, come in." ”

Aunt Ding let us into her office, which was still simple and elegant, with a bed in the corner and bookcases on all sides, in which the foreign books with neat parchment rolls were stacked very softly, losing their original edges and corners, like an old man full of wisdom after the vicissitudes of life.

Aunt Ding sat behind a table full of wood grains and pointed at us, "Tell me how many years you haven't come to see me?" ”

Ah Po said: "Six years? ”

Wushuang said: "It's not more than seven years." ”

Xiaohui said: "But I don't feel it at all, you see that Aunt Ding hasn't changed at all, as if we just left here yesterday." ”

Only then did the two of them react, and nodded hurriedly: "That's it." ”

In fact, we did not come for six or seven years, and when we first entered the society, we still came once or twice regularly, and then there was no reason, and we slowly became lazy, so it is very scary to say that people's habitual surnames are very scary, but when I came back today, I didn't feel unfamiliar at all, and everything was still so familiar.

Aunt Ding smiled at Xiaohui and said, "You are still the best at talking." ”

We are all accustomed to standing naturally with our hands behind our backs, just like back then, when the four of us were "invited" in together, it was generally not a good thing, and we basically came to admit our mistakes. Aunt Ding beckoned to Catherine and said, "Princess, please take a seat, in fact, I have known you for a long time, and you have been donating money for public welfare." ”

Ekaterina said politely: "It's good to call me Yezi, I'm ashamed, I donate other people's money." ”

Aunt Ding smiled and said: "That's also amazing, to be honest, I wanted to do the same thing as you when I was young, but unfortunately I was already old when I really wanted to act." ”

Ekaterina said: "No, you have already done it, and you are continuing to do it. ”

Aunt Ding was stunned for a moment and asked us, "Who taught this child's Chinese?" ”

I laughed, it was really interesting to listen to three women with profound wisdom talking to each other, and the way they complimented each other was amazing.

Catherine took out a crumpled cheque and carefully sorted them out one by one, then put her hands in front of Aunt Ding and said: "This is my main purpose this time, I'm sorry, I have always treated money roughly, I knew that if I had the opportunity to hand it over to you in person, this situation would not have happened." ”

Aunt Ding flipped through a few cheques, suddenly stood up solemnly, held Catherine's hand and said: "Usually people who come to this place to donate more than 100,000 yuan will bring a large number of reporters and colorful cheap candy, I thank you on behalf of all the children." ”

Catherine smiled and said, "I also brought candy." ”

I said disdainfully, "yes, it's just enough to eat you alone until you have a toothache." ”

As he was talking, a big truck suddenly drove into the outside of the school gate, it came to the lawn, and the car gang drove up, and with a bang, countless sandwich chocolates poured on the grass, and then left.

We watched this scene in wonder, not knowing what was going on.

At this time, Catherine said to Aunt Ding: "I haven't told you yet, I have already helped you spend 50,000 yuan on that donation to pay for those chocolates." ”

We all looked at her blankly, not knowing what she meant, and Ekaterina smiled and said, "You must have something to say privately, I'm going to share chocolate with the children." After speaking, he nodded to Aunt Ding, and then ran out.

Wushuang looked at the countless chocolates on the grass and lost his mind: "She actually bought a truckload of chocolates for the children at a time." ”

The chocolates were poured on the ground, emitting a tempting scent, like a small mountain, but the children did not know what was happening, and out of curiosity and curiosity, they quickly gathered around, but no one dared to come forward without permission.

Catherine separated the children and walked to the chocolate pile, picked up a piece of peeled paper and stuffed it into her mouth, the children looked at the beautiful big sister, no one made a sound, they all quietly gathered around, Ekaterina chewed and said in amazement: "You don't want to see me eat all these things alone, do you?" Help! ”

The children didn't react for a moment, but they still didn't move......

Catherine pouted, "This is for you—" she said with a wave of her arm, "let's eat them all together!" ”

The children finally understood, and after a moment of froze, they burst into cheers and flew at the chocolates......

Looking at them with excitement, Ah Po smacked his lips and said, "Why didn't anyone do this when we were children?" ”

Wushuang said: "This makes those boring reporters see that they may have to use the topic to play again, saying that the money should be used where it is more needed or something-besides, they will have a toothache if they eat like this." ”

Aunt Ding said disdainfully: "Let them say go, children, they should eat candy and eat until they have a toothache." ”

I interjected, "Children with tooth decay grow up to be smart. ”

Everyone looked at me together: "Who told you that?" ”

I have nothing more to say......

Aunt Ding poked me with a pen and said, "It's time to talk about you, what have you been doing all these years?" ”

I complained, "You finally saw me." "This is the first time Aunt Ding has looked at me squarely.

Aunt Ding smiled: "According to the process of the year, you will be the last to explain." ”

This sentence warmed my heart, it was indeed the case back then, the four of us poked the basket, and were caught by the aunt in front of Aunt Ding, and then the three of them explained one by one, and were put back in turn, and finally it was my turn......

Thinking of this, I was not convinced: "You have to tell me why you were always the last to discipline me back then, and it took a long time?" ”

Aunt Ding put her reading glasses on the tip of her nose again, rolled her eyes and said, "Because you are the worst." ”

I was surprised, "Why?" ”

Aunt Ding snorted and said: "If you want to talk about the four of you, Wushuang and Ah Po know that they are messing around with your ass all day long, Xiaohui is the smartest, but she is a dog-headed military advisor, she doesn't have crooked eyes, if you want to say bad, you are the worst, which bad idea was not made by you?" ”

I was wronged, "Didn't do anything, did you?" ”

"I didn't do anything, I instigated other children to touch the electric door and say that it could be disinfected, take a bath downstream of the dam on a rainy day, and once you hollowed out the firecrackers and gunpowder that were piled up in the small warehouse for the New Year and made a rocket the size of a water tank to make Ah Po ......go to the sky."

I scratched my head and said, "Did I do this?" ”

Ah Po, Wushuang, and Xiaohui looked at me and nodded at the same time.

Aunt Ding sighed with emotion: "Seriously, I don't know who to thank for growing up so big, by the way, there was another time a child was thrown into a puddle by you and Ah Po and almost drowned, what is that called-"

I said, "Dayong." ”

"Yes, Dayong." Aunt Ding sighed: "I heard that this kid has mixed up with the underworld, which makes people feel worried." ”

"I'll tell you about him next time."

Aunt Ding said: "What are you doing after talking for a long time?" ”

I smiled and said, "I am now the director of the neighborhood committee on Wangfu Street." ”

Aunt Ding smiled: "It can be seen that you are messing around somewhere." Then she said with a straight face, "Do a good job, you don't need to come to see me if you're busy, it's better to be busy than not to be busy." ”

I said, "Is school going well?" ”

"It's going well, now people are also starting to pay attention to public welfare, and I also received an anonymous donation of 98 million some time ago, which is also amazing."

I subconsciously said casually, "It's nothing ......."

Xiaohui pulled me, and I hurriedly changed my words: "Compared to the princess." ”

Aunt Ding turned her head to look out the window, and Catherine was sitting on the grass, munching on chocolate with the children, not knowing what she was talking to them, and sometimes looking up and laughing happily. Aunt Ding said kindly: "That's also a good girl, not like what foreign newspapers say." ”

Xiaohui said: "Chinese newspapers have also begun to criticize her, she and the king of fish and the son of a wealthy businessman have dinner and receive a huge amount of money has been exposed, and now many rich people are using this as a talking point, and they are ready to pay a lot of money to invite her to dinner, which is very hot in the media." ”

I immediately said, "But she has already donated all the money!" ”

Xiaohui shrugged her shoulders and said, "She didn't say it herself, who knows?" And for the sake of money, she eats with people casually, and she is a princess, so it is conceivable that the impact will definitely not be much better. ”

I said angrily, "What's wrong with eating with someone?" What's wrong with eating with someone? ”

Xiaohui smiled faintly and said, "You're a little excited." What would you think if you didn't know her? ”

I was speechless for a moment.

Aunt Ding listened to our conversation, looked at Catherine outside the window, and said with interest: "This girl has a surname." ”

When we walked out to the meadow as Aunt Bidin, Catherine and her group of children had already eaten their chocolates, and she lay on the grass with their little bellies up, looking at the sky, smiling, and panting with happiness. She saw us coming out, sat up, scooped up a piece of chocolate and threw it to me, the chocolate was a parabola in the air, and I was about to pick it up, when without warning, a cloud of blood erupted in Catherine's chest...... And I, seeing this scene, was stunned.

The chocolate landed on the ground, the first time I hadn't caught something flying towards me.
