After Mai Dong got out of the county car, he seemed to hear the sound of the wind blowing the rice. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info September, it is a good season for rice to ripen and harvest. Everything in front of me overlaps with scenes from childhood memories......

These wooden fences were all hammered into by Liu Guilan one by one, but it took a lot of money and hard work. People, in fact, like animals, like to demarcate an area for themselves and make a mark, so that they can appear to be their own and have a sense of belonging. Why don't you have the old saying "gold and silver nests, it's better to have your own kennel"?

Now, after the baptism of the years, these woods have long since lost their hardness, or have been beetles, or weathered, or lost part of them because of some accidents, and have been worn away by the years to only slag.

Pushing open the trembling wooden door, there was a vegetable garden on the right, which used to be full of all kinds of vegetables, and it was a paradise for wheat winter. She likes to go to the vegetable garden to pick and pull, Chinese cabbage, Shanghai greens, spinach, beans, pumpkins...... Mai Dong is willing to pick them up, because they are strong, Liu Guilan can pick them for some money, and go to the garden to pick whatever she wants to eat on weekdays, just pick it herself.

Mai Dong always remembers Liu Guilan's earnest words: "They are more honest than people, they won't lie to you, they will grow what you plant, and if you treat it well, it will return more." ”

But now, the open space surrounded by a fence is a barren place. Mai Dong knows that the grass and trees are withered and prosperous. The hand slowly brushed the mottled pieces of bamboo, as if sensing the passage of time.

Yes, she's 26 years old, and she's married.

Mai Dong walked to the front of the hall and called "grandma", Liu Min opened the door from the kitchen and saw that it was Mai Dong, and suddenly the joy blossomed, and the wrinkles on his face were like saying joy to each other.

"Oh, the wheat is back, quick, come in." As he spoke, he wiped his hands on his apron and hurriedly let Mai Dong into the house.

"Aunt Min...... You're there too. Mai Dong saw that this mother-like woman was much older, and the goose egg face was wrinkled, and her black hair was full of gray. couldn't help it, and stepped forward and hugged her. Liu Min wiped his eyes, then pulled Mai Dong tightly, and the calloused hand pierced the skin, making Mai Dong feel distressed.

Liu Guilan sat by the stove, her head lowered, drowsy, and a dark red hat on her head, which Mai Dong bought for Liu Guilan during the Chinese New Year last year. A handful of silver-white hair that fell from his ears was blown up by the heat. Mai Dong squatted down, helped Liu Guilan comb the hair around her ears, and took off the weeds on her hat by the way. "Grandma, grandma, I'm back." Mai Dong screamed softly.

Liu Guilan opened her wrinkled eyes, wrinkled deeply, as if she was blaming Mai Dong for disturbing their good sleep, and she was extremely reluctant to stretch her waist and stretch out.

"Who are you?" Liu Guilan lost only a few teeth, and her speech was not very clear.

"Grandma, I'm Maizi." Mai Dong smiled and went to take Liu Guilan's hand, and when he saw that her eyes were open, he coaxed: "Let's go to bed, okay?" ”

Liu Guilan opened her eyes and took Mai Dong's face and looked at it carefully, "Maizi-why did you grow so big?" A tone of surprise.

One sentence amused Mai Dong and Liu Min, and the two of them giggled, "Sister Guilan, the wheat has grown up, your wheat has grown up...... I'm back to see you again. Liu Min raised his voice, thinking that Liu Guilan's ears were not very bright, "Look, you talk about it every day, you talk about it, you talk about it, and the wheat will come back, don't listen to the blind cow breaking - how can a granddaughter not recognize her grandmother, isn't it?" ”

Liu Guilan wrapped Mai Dong's hand tightly with her hand, put it in her arms, listened to Liu Min's words, and grinned childishly, "Hehe...... Oh, my wheat is back, my wheat is back. As he spoke, he turned his head and looked at Liu Min very seriously, "Aru, go and kill the old hen I raised, and tell Ono to come back for dinner early." ”

Mai Dong's heart tightened, and he looked up at Liu Min, who smiled and waved his hand at her, still with a happy expression, not at all, "Okay, I'll go now, and then go buy a fish and come back, let's celebrate today." ”

Liu Min pulled off his apron and tidied up his hair slightly, "Maizi, where is Jialin?" Go to your mother-in-law's house and say let's have dinner at your grandmother's house today, right? ”

"Aunt Min, he didn't come back, I came back alone."

Liu Min saw that Mai Dong's expression was a little discouraged, and his voice was not as happy as just now, so he knew a little in his heart, "What's wrong?" Is he on duty again, or are you arguing? ”

Mai Dong didn't answer her, he lost his mind slightly, he came out without saying hello to him, he was in a moment of anger, and after so long, he also realized that he was indeed reckless.

"You've only been married for a long time, how can you not have bumps? Two people have to give each other a let, and marriage is like this, so that two people's days can be turned into one person's life. Liu Min saw that Mai Dong didn't seem to be in good spirits, so he didn't continue, went to the back of the door and took out a rattan frame, and said: "I'll go to the vegetable market to buy some vegetables, you're tired from taking the train for so long, wash your face, rest for a while, there's nothing else to think about, I'll be back soon." ”

Mai Dong added some firewood to the small stove from time to time, and the water pot on the stove "gurgling", and Liu Guilan next to him held Mai Dong's hand and fell asleep "hulala". Mai Dong looked at Liu Guilan like that, looking at it, his nose was sore, and tears flowed down. How did time pass so quickly?

16 years ago, she walked into the door of the Qi family for the first time, and for her, it was another world. Clean, bright and spacious, yet also cold. The luster refracted from the home was like a knife, beckoning straight to her small body. An Jinru's home and Liu Guilan's home are so different, in Mai Dong's little head, she never thought that there would be such a world, she was simple, she simply thought that everything she saw on TV was fake, just like cartoons, fake.

When I first went, Mai Dong was not used to it, he didn't like to talk, he was careful in everything he did, and the faucet of the sink couldn't be used, so he learned to draw gourds in the same way; I didn't know how to flush the toilet after a small solution, so I pretended that my stomach hurt, and I made it clear in it and didn't come out until I flushed the water...... Of course, there are also many things she messed up, such as not being able to use the washing machine, not being able to find the switch on the TV, not being able to make the water heater, etc. So at the beginning, she washed all her clothes by hand, and in the biting cold water of winter, she rubbed her hands and clothes at the same time, so that the chilblains on her hands grew more lush than any previous year, and her life was longer.

An Jinru's husband Qi Jianguo praised Mai Dong for being sensible, and always used her as a "role model" for his son, saying that Qi was too skinny, disobedient, playful, and even inferior to his sister as an elder brother...... At that time, Qi Zaixiao, with a pair of watery eyes, held his chin and talked to Mai Dong, and when he spoke, there were only two words "stupid". For this reason, Qi Jianguo beat Qi Zai a lot.

Isn't it a "stupid", maybe the learning content of Dahe Town and City A is different, and Mai Dong always makes jokes in class. As the "child king" of the primary school, Qi Zai, always has the "little brother" to report to him the embarrassment of his "new sister" as soon as possible. So Qi deserves this "stupid" Mai Dong.

Later, as he grew older, the naughty bag who was naughty when he was a child gradually became a quiet and connotative beautiful man; And the quiet and introverted little "stupid" slowly took off his once shy and simple coat, and talked more. The two children are no longer as tense as they were at the beginning, but have become more and more intimate.

Thinking about it, Mai Dong reached out to touch the ring around her neck, and the quarrel between her and Sun Jialin was because, in her eyes, this ring was much more precious than the ring on her ring finger. Could it be that this ring was really given by Qi?
