In order to show her that I was not guarded, I opened the courtyard door a little and said to her a little embarrassedly, "Otherwise, you come and sit down first, and if there is anything, you can talk to him when Botai returns." ”

"No, no." She rejected me with a smile, and said: "The little grandson is too young, staying at home alone, and I can't let go of this old man's heart, since the Botai prince is not at home, then I will ask the lady to hand over these things to the Botai prince on behalf of the old man." ”

"Stuff."

Hearing this, my comfortable brows couldn't help but jump in an arc, I was really puzzled, when did this guy in Botai become so stingy, he didn't even let go of the old man's things, and wanted to scavenge them back and take them for himself.

"Madame, don't think too much."

The old woman in front of me seemed to see what I was thinking, and explained with a smile: "The boy of Botai has some things to deal with these days, so he asked me, the old man, to help him do this breakfast." ”

"I see." I nodded and reached forward to pick up her something, when a wizened hand grabbed my wrist and startled me.

"Here." The old woman smiled, and her cold fingers slowly roamed over the back of my hand, and handed me the bamboo basket in my hand.

"Grandma, grandma."

Not far away, the voice of a young boy sounded, listening to the milky tone, it is estimated that the age is only about five or six years old.

"Grandma, grandma, who is this old grandmother." The boy's childish question rang out.

"And the old woman."

I was puzzled in my heart, and glanced around with my eyes that were three fingers wide, and there were two vague shadows in front of me, one large and one small, so who was the other old woman that the little boy had called out of his mouth.

"Child, who is this grandma you are calling, why didn't I see it?" After searching for a while, I didn't find anything, so I smiled and asked him.

"Hey, it turns out that my grandmother's eyes can't see it."

Feeling that the sleeves of my shirt were being pulled, my eyelids jumped with displeasure, the other grandmother called by this stinky child's mouth should not be this little fish me. There is no mistake in this, I look like I am only fifteen years old at most, when will I be old enough to be a grandmother.

"Hehe, you're mistaken."

I gritted my teeth and gave him a smile that I thought was good, and squeezed out a sentence from between my teeth, "Little friend, sister, I am only fifteen years old today, not much older than you, call my grandmother, you don't have to respect me so much, just call me sister." ”

"Sister."

The little boy's voice sounded with doubt, like I was not worthy to be his sister, but to be his grandmother.

"yes, yes."

I smiled again, nodded at the little blurred shadow behind Bai Aya, gritted my teeth and said, "Of course it's my sister, can a beautiful woman like me still be your grandmother." ”

"But, sister, why is your hair different from mine, why is it all white hair?" The little boy asked again.

"White."

I frowned, reached out and stroked the hair that hung freely on my chest, through the three finger-wide white silk, I couldn't see what color it was, and wondered, "Is my hair really white or not black?" ”

"Yes, it's very white, it's ...... than snowflakes"

The little boy said again in an affirmative tone, and I was shocked by what he said.

"Don't talk nonsense."

Before she had finished speaking, the old woman's angry voice rang out, as if she was trying to stop the little boy from talking about my hair.

"It's okay, it's okay."

Seeing the dispute between the grandfather and grandson because of their own affairs, I felt a little embarrassed in my heart, reached out and touched the two handfuls of white hair on my chest, squeezed out a smile on my face, and said to the old woman: "I actually know about the hair in my heart, but I didn't expect this day to come so early, and I didn't prepare at all in my heart." ”

The old woman sighed a few times, softly comforted the little grandson beside her for a while, and said to me: "The Botai prince is infatuated with the lady, and the lady doesn't have to take the hair matter to heart, the old woman thinks that no matter what the lady changes, the Botai prince will still be very good to the lady." ”

"Yes. Hehe......"

I laughed dryly, and really admired the old woman's judgmental vision. Although Botai and I live under the same roof, we have always been friends and have never crossed the border, but for some reason, in the eyes of others, they have become husband and wife.

"Of course, the old woman lived for nearly sixty years, but she never lied to anyone."

It was probably because the tone of my voice was not very good, and the old woman spoke with a hint of anger at this time.

"Thank you then."

Actually, if she lied, I would be happier. White hair, white hair, whiter than snowflakes, I can't imagine what I will look like with a white hair, I can't help but want to make sure again, without asking the old woman to ask the little boy on the side, "Little friend, tell my sister that my sister's hair is really white, not black." ”

"No, no, not black. The color of my sister's hair is very similar to the color of my grandmother's hair. ”

He replied quite positively, as if he didn't even think about it, so he answered directly, and the voice sounded full of excitement. I sighed bitterly and listened to him continue: "However, sister, your hair looks whiter than my grandmother's, it looks pretty good, how did my sister make her hair so good." ”

White. Even if I ate too much and had nothing to do, I wouldn't be bored enough to turn my hair white, so I reached out and stroked my side forehead, which was a little dizzy, and said with a wry smile: "My sister's hair is born like this, and I don't have how to get it." ”

"I didn't get it."

The little boy's puzzled voice sounded again.

"Yes, no, it was born that way."

The corners of my stiff mouth could no longer pull out a smile, and after sending the two of them away, I reflexively closed the courtyard door tightly, and my body slid down against the cold door.

It's only been a few months, and I've forgotten all about my cultivation, and now, when I hear someone mention it, for a while, I really can't bear it in my heart.

Bang, bang, bang......

The knock sounded again, I sniffed, took a few big breaths, listened to the knock louder, the more urgent the call of the Botai outside, I slowly stood up and opened the door of the courtyard behind me.

"Where have you been, why are you only coming back now?"

I heard myself ask him in a trembling voice.

"No, nowhere to go. Xiaosheng just walked around, and helped Miss Yuge bring back some delicious food. As he spoke, Bai Aya saw a small shadow floating in front of her, so could this be another food basket?

I stepped back a bit, made way for him, and listened to him humming a little song as he happily walked out into the courtyard.

"Botai, did you hide something from me and didn't tell me."

The sound of brisk footsteps stopped, and the floating shadow of the green dress in front of me stopped beating and stopped ten steps away from me.

Shao leaned, he smiled and asked, "Miss Yuge thinks that Xiao Sheng will have something to hide from you, so she didn't tell you." ”

From these words, I couldn't hear what his emotions were, and I slowly approached him in doubt, picked up the food basket in my hand and handed it to him, and after he took it, I buried my head and tried to say to him in a calm tone: "This food basket was sent by an old woman just now." ”

"Hmm."

The person in front of him replied sullenly.

I stretched out my hand to pull out a few strands of hair stuck around my neck, and said to him, "The old woman has a grandson, and he seems to be only five or six years old, and he shouts when he sees people, and he is very obedient and obedient. But do you know what he calls me? Raising his head and looking at the person in front of me through the three fingers of white silk, I laughed at myself on my face, "Grandma, he actually opened his mouth to call my grandma, at that time, my head was stunned, I thought that although I have lived for more than 3,000 years, but my appearance has always stayed in the stage of a little girl, why is this child in the world so ignorant of people, and I am such a young and beautiful girl called an old grandmother." ”

"Fish song girl, Xiaosheng ......" Botai wanted to speak and stopped.

"Well, it's not your fault."

I pursed my lips and said, "I don't blame you for this matter, I only blame my own ability to accept it too weakly, when I gave my two thousand years of cultivation to Purple Lotus, I should have thought that I would end up like this." However, I haven't thought about it, and I've also thought about various possibilities, such as turning back into a carp, or going straight from a demon to a mortal, which are the worst endings I can think of. I never imagined that one day, I would become like an old grandmother, with all gray hair, gray hair. ”

As I spoke, my eyes moistened a little, I sniffed slightly, held back the urge to cry, and said a little sadly: "I must be ugly now, ugly like an old woman." If Zilian saw me like this, he would definitely say that I was ugly, and then he would never pay attention to me again. ”

"Ugly."

He laughed out loud a few times as if he had heard a joke, and then, without my preparation, he took me tightly into his arms and said softly: "It's just that the hair is gray, it's nothing, in Xiaosheng's eyes, the white hair of the Yuge girl now looks much better than the appearance of the black hair." ”

"How is this possible?"

Stretching out my hand and rubbing the white silk in front of me, I sighed and said: "How can someone have gray hair and look good, there will be no such person in this world, and even if there is, it will not be me." ”
