170 walks and chats after dusk

"Sister Zheng, look, this person is not back~~"

Sister Zheng? Before Li Banxia entered the house, these three words broke into his ears. Without waiting for her to think about who this Zheng sister was, Ma walked out quickly and took Li Banxia's hand and entered.

smiled at the person inside and said, "As soon as I heard the footsteps, I knew that it was Banxia who was back~"

"Mrs. Chen?!" Li Banxia was taken aback, "Why did you come here?" ”

"Look at what you kid said, Mrs. Chen came to see you kindly, and she doesn't know any rules." Although Ma said this, he kept smiling on his face, and he didn't mean to blame.

As soon as Li Banxia spoke, he realized that he had reacted a little bigger, and he was a guest at the door, so he was embarrassed to say this.

She was too surprised, and she couldn't understand why Mrs. Chen, a lady like the gate, came to her family. This is not the main thing, mainly because she and Mrs. Chen have chatted together, and when they were treating Old Man Chen, they never thought that she would come to their own house.

Mrs. Chen's eyes were always smiling, and when she saw Li Banxia coming back, she smiled even more, pulled her to sit down beside her, and said: "That's the case, I went to Baiyun Temple with Chunlian's girl to offer incense, and when I came back, I passed by this neighborhood, and I heard Chunlian's girl say that your home is nearby, so I thought about coming over to have a look." ”

"Mrs. Chen is too polite, you see that I want you to make a trip~~" Li Banxia has never known how to deal with this kind of polite thing, but he is very grateful in his heart.

"Banxia, Mrs. Chen has asked you several times when she entered the door, and after a while, she went to the door to take a look and said why haven't you come back. It's rare that Mrs. Chen is so good to you, you have to remember it in your heart. Ma Shi also said on the side.

Li Banxia nodded again and again, not knowing how to express his happiness. I had to ask Mrs. Chen: "Mrs. Chen." It's not too early, so you can eat something here, and you'll definitely be hungry after a day's journey. ”

Baiyun Temple eats vegetarian food, although Mrs. Chen also likes to eat vegetarian food, but this ordinary person eats vegetarian food, how to say it, no matter how full. After eating two bowls of vegetarian food, I was hungry after a while. Li Banxia had experience in this matter before, and she was not used to eating vegetarian food.

"Yes, yes, yes. Mrs. Chen, if you don't dislike our small family's coarse tea and light rice, you will eat some here~~" When Ma said this, he remembered to ask someone to eat.

Usually at this time, I would have already cooked rice. It's just that Mrs. Chen came, and the two talked about it until now. To put it mildly, she really didn't expect Mrs. Chen to be such a good person, and she talked to her about trivial things in the family, and she listened to it very happily.

Ma thought to himself. It turns out that the wife of this big family also likes to do homely cooking. Seeing that she is dressed so luxuriously and behaves so gently, she is really unambiguous when she speaks.

If it was someone else, Ma would have left her here for dinner a long time ago, not to see her big family, all she eats is delicacies from the mountains and seas. I'm afraid she won't be used to eating here. So until now, I haven't spoken.

Li Banxia is different from Ma's, judging from the fact that she and Mrs. Chen have gotten along these days. This lady is not a woman who cannot endure hardship. Except for the guests at home, most of the ladies stay alone in the room, and their lives are very simple, and they don't ask for anything.

"Yo, that's embarrassing. I don't think it's getting early, so I'd better go back early. so that the child and his father may not be worried. Mrs. Chen looked at the sky outside and saw that the sun had gone down, and she realized how long she had been sitting here. is also because there is no one to talk to her at home, and it is rare to meet someone to talk to, and when she chats, she forgets the hour.

"Madam, don't talk to us, eat here at night, and after dinner, I'll send you back." Li Banxia often runs around the Chen Family Medicine House these days, and when he comes back, he is often blinded by the black light, and gradually, his courage has become bigger.

"That's it, Sister Zheng, you have been talking about coming back in the afternoon, and you are going to leave as soon as she comes back, but you can't say it."

"This ......"

"That's it, Banxia, you accompany Mrs. Chen to talk for a while, I'll cook and fry a few dishes~~" After Ma finished speaking, he didn't wait for her to agree, so he ran to the kitchen, lifted the lid of the pot, picked up a broom and brushed the pot a few times, and after a while, the chimney at home began to smoke.

Seeing this, Mrs. Chen had no choice but to nod.

"Mrs. Chen, you've been sitting in the house for so long, why don't I take you out for a walk?" The view of the countryside in this evening is superb. Especially in the mountains, there is always an indescribable tranquility and peace.

Mrs. Chen left Chunlian and asked her to help the Ma family, while she and Li Banxia came out of the house.

The old Liu family in the twilight was painted with a soft color by the sunset. The winding and narrow dirt corridor outside, the bean shells drying in the yard, and a few freshly wrapped ducklings foraging in the corners, no matter which point, is full of local flavor.

Mrs. Chen stared at the ducklings for a while, watching them chirp and chase the mosquitoes, and then roll on the ground, cleaning their tails with their long and flat beaks, and then lying on the ground as if they had eaten and fainting, laughing so pleasantly.

Li Banxia saw that Mrs. Chen couldn't walk when she looked at these cute little ducks, so she smiled and asked, "Madame also likes these little guys?" ”

Mrs. Chen tilted her head slightly, "Yes, you see how much fun they have." If I had a few of them, I would feed them every day so that they could grow up as soon as possible. ”

Li Banxia smiled and shook his head, "Madam, you're wrong. ”

“……”

"These little guys are fun when they're young, but they're a headache when they're older." Those who have raised ducks and some chickens, ducks and geese may have such a feeling as Li Banxia, these little guys sometimes look really fun, but polluting the environment, the ability to make feces is not ambiguous. Especially those big guys, it's even more of a headache, and even a lot of anger.

still remembers when she was a child, Li Banxia was forced by those big things, and in the end she had to "threaten" her grandfather: Grandpa, if you catch these things again, I will secretly send them away. If you catch one, I'll give you one until it's finished.

Grandpa is still laughing: girl, if you don't raise these things, you won't have any eggs to eat.

She said: If you don't have eggs to eat, you won't have eggs to eat, and if you don't eat eggs for the rest of your life, I don't want to raise these things! By the way, she also glanced at her grandfather: You are quiet, you will leave it alone when you catch the duck, and let me do all the chores alone. If all these things are done by you, grandfather, I don't care how many times you catch them back.

Later, Li Banxia still couldn't stop her grandfather from buying chickens and ducklings at home twice in three days, until she finally set up an independent small courtyard to raise these little guys, and she felt a little more comfortable.

It's not that she doesn't like these things, it's that these guys are making trouble. If nothing else, just talk about the smell, especially on rainy days, raising a little guy at home and not raising a little guy are definitely two different things.

Unexpectedly, this Mrs. Chen and her grandfather actually had the same tone: "Silly girl, isn't raising these things just to make them grow up quickly and lay eggs to eat?" ”

"Laying eggs is laying eggs, but it's not fun at all~~" This is quite childish.

Mrs. Chen seems to have gotten used to this, and from the first day she met this girl, she found that she seemed very sensible for a while, and spoke very childishly for a while. However, she just likes her, and it's fun to talk to her.

Mrs. Chen stared at those little ducks for a long time, and just when Li Banxia thought she had seen enough and was about to move on to the next place, Mrs. Chen suddenly sighed: "Maybe you are right, it is still interesting when you were young~~"

Li Banxia felt that she seemed to have something to say.

"When the child grows up, his wings become stiff, and he slowly wants to fly by himself~~"

This is something that almost every parent cares about, on the one hand, they hope that their children will grow up quickly, be able to take charge of themselves, and make a career. On the one hand, I am reluctant to let the child leave my side, and I don't know if he/she will fly and forget to fly back.

"When my Cong'er was young, he was very well-behaved, very well-behaved, I was sick and couldn't get up in bed, so he came into my room with hot soup and fed me one bite at a time. The little hand kept grabbing me and said: Mother, you have to get better quickly, you can take Cong'er to play when you are ready, Cong'er can't live without her mother. ”

"When Cong'er was young, his father was very busy and didn't have time to accompany our mother and son. Cong'er knew that I liked to drink glutinous rice porridge, so he asked the cook to teach him how to make glutinous rice porridge, and at that time I was depressed all day long about his father's affairs, and he hoped to make me happy......"

"Cong'er is very afraid of thunder, every time it thunders and rains, he holds the pillow and gets into my bed, he doesn't want me to laugh at him, so he says: Mother, are you afraid of thunder? Don't be afraid, Cong'er will sleep with you. ”

Li Banxia smiled softly, Cong'er is Young Master Chen's milk name. She didn't know that the annoying and powerful Young Master Chen was so cute when she was young.

"Cong'er was taken away by his father, and at that time I was guarding my empty home, feeling that I had nothing to love. His father came back less and less often, and sometimes he didn't hear from him for a year and a half. Fifteen years later, their father and son came back together, and the old man had changed, and he was so good to me that I thought it was a dream, and when I woke up, there was nothing left. ”

"Cong'er has also changed, this child, I haven't seen him for fifteen years, and I have been separated. Although he was as filial to me and his father as ever, I just felt that something was wrong with this child. Sometimes, when dealing with people, even I secretly worry about him. ”

Speaking of this, Mrs. Chen suddenly turned around and asked Li Banxia: "Girl, to be honest, are you still angry with my son?" ”
