Chapter 13: Feeling the Old Grace and Liu's Dao Zhongji (1)

Sister Qiao is the first time to go out, and the people who serve are not around, she is fresh and curious, she looks up, but she sees wild flowers and trees. The pen %fun %pavilion www.biquge.info the distant shore of the mountains reflect the water, and the flat furrow is planted with wheat and sunflower. Again:

Several storeys of thatched huts are covered with greenery, and the surrounding sparse hedges are decorated with powder. Peach and plum clusters, branches in spring; The crow willow is green, and the silk is green and green. The smoke at the bottom of the trees is still wet, and the fields are full of flat roads. The little dog barks at the wood door, and the birds cry at the ancient tree. It is a good pastoral scenery.

Looking at the feathered ducks swimming in the river for a while, Sister Qiao couldn't help but be more and more happy, and hurriedly pulled Qing'er's sleeve and said bluntly: "Look at it, look at it, who raised it at home, but it looks so handsome." ”

Qing'er covered her mouth with a smile, pointed to the duck and said, "That's not raised, that's a duck in the field." When the spring water is warm, they only come out, and they usually sleep in the reeds. ”

When Sister Qiao heard this, she suddenly felt as if she was out of a cage, and the world suddenly became spacious, and she said to Qing'er for a while: "You can know that the prophet of Chunjiang plumbing duck really has his origin." ”

Qing'er was not very literate, so she didn't know what she was reading, but when she heard it, she smiled and said, "What you said is really good." If Grandma knew that I had brought you home, she might have been so happy, and even my father and mother would have been surprised to see you. Oh, and my monkey-headed brother, grandma said you met him when you were young, but I don't know if you still remember him, he's also at home now. ”

Sister Qiao thought about it for a while, but there was a vague shadow in her impression, but she didn't see it very real, so she said perfunctorily to Qing'er: "I probably remember, where is your home, why can't I see it?" ”

Qing'er raised her hand, pointed to the front and said, "Well, the second one over there is." Sister Qiao unconsciously looked at her fingertips, and saw that there was a door with two gilded beast head knockers nailed to the door of the cluster of people, and a piece of ground in front of the door was sparse and I don't know what was planted, which was what Qing'er said.

The two of them were still talking, and a village on the side of the road opened the door, and the mother-in-law came out to call for chickens, and when she saw Sister Qing'er Qiao, she wiped her hands in front of her clothes unconsciously, and said with a smile: "Who are you bringing back?" I heard that your grandmother is sick and has been resting in bed for a few days, is she okay now? ”

Qing'er was taken aback at once, and hurriedly asked the mother-in-law, "Granny Li, what disease does my grandmother have?" ”

The mother-in-law sighed and said, "Don't you know if you dare to love?" Let's go and take a look, I heard that they have been bedridden for several days. ”

Qing'er couldn't help but feel troubled in her heart, turned her head and glanced at Sister Qiao, and hurriedly took Sister Qiao'er's hand and said, "Let's go quickly, go home and see grandma." Sister Qiao was pulled by her, she had never been so busy, and her panicked intuition ran along with Qing'er all the way. The woman chased after her for a while, and then waved her hand and persuaded: "My little ancestor, slow down, beware of falling into the skin." ”

Qing'er sighed crisply, but she didn't dare to stop, and went straight to the ground, before she ran to the door of the beast's head that she was pointing to, patted the door knocker and shouted: "Mother, mother, grandma, grandma, it's me who is back, just open the door for me." ”

There was silence for a while, and after a while, I heard someone calling out from the door: "Qing'er, is it you?" You didn't live in the city, who brought you home? ”

Qing'er heard Wang Liu's voice, and was busy outside: "Mother, don't ask more, open the door and talk." ”

Wang Liu hurriedly took two steps to open the door, Sister Qiao looked at it carefully, and saw that it was a thin and tall woman, wearing a new white thread shirt, revealing a pink skirt underneath, covered with blue satin cotton armor, very kind. When the woman opened the door, she saw Sister Qiao'er standing next to Qing'er, wearing all the clothes that Qing'er usually wears at home, with a snow-white middle coat inside, a green silk jacket on the outside, and a double-ring bun. The Tao is: hibiscus jade face, ice and snow as muscles, born in the year of grace and Xuan, relying on the independence of the door.

Wang Liu only doubted that it was a good appearance, so he didn't wait for Qing'er to open his mouth and asked, "Who are you from here?" Why don't you live in the house over there? ”

Qing'er didn't have time to answer, and pulled Sister Qiao into the door, only then turned around and covered the door and said to Wang Liu: "Don't bluff me when I say it, this young lady is the girl she gave the name that her grandmother often says, because she has a lot of things at home, thinking about coming out to recuperate for a few days, I brought the girl to live in our house." As he spoke, he gently pulled Sister Qiao forward and sent it straight to Wang Liu.

Wang Liu heard that there was a Miss Houmen at home, and she was really shocked for a long time, and stared at Sister Qiao'er for a while, and when she saw her embarrassedly lowered her head, she was about to kowtow in a panic, and said in her mouth: "Hello girl, I didn't know it, but I didn't know Taishan." ”

Frightened, Sister Qiao'er hurriedly squatted down to support her, and said urgently: "Auntie can't help it, I am coming to your house to disturb my own life, if you do this again, won't you kill me." ”

Wang Liu's said that he laughed, stood up straight and tasted Sister Qiao again, before holding her hand and rubbing it, and said to Qing'er: "Look at the Qiao girl, she is really from a big family, and the words she says are different from others, and she can't complain that people like her." It's just that you are the only ones who came, who sent you? ”

Sister Qiao smiled: "It was sent by my family, I thought they were verbose, so I didn't let them come over to bother my aunt, so I let them go back in the village, but now I'm afraid they're going to the city." ”

When Wang Liu heard it, he sighed and said, "Why don't you ask me to go home and sit down?" Although we are here in Pengmen, we also know the truth that people want to toast tea and water, dare the girls are afraid that we will not be able to entertain well? It's just that we haven't seen them at home all day, Qing'er, why don't you keep the girls? ”

Qing'er looked like she was blaming herself, and couldn't help but excuse herself: "It was the girl who said that she didn't need her sisters to serve, and because I watched there for a few days and figured out a lot of reasons to take care of her, my sisters put their minds at ease and left." Besides, the girl is still in our house, and if my mother really wants to entertain them, it will not be too late for them to come and pick up the girl's house. ”

Wang Liu nodded while listening and said: "What you said is also a reason, since it is a quiet retreat, the girl should rest in the house." It's just that I don't know that the girl is coming, so I have to let us clean up, but I'm afraid that it will be very messy when I enter the house, and it won't get into the girl's eyes. It's hard to come here, we can't treat the girl badly. ”

When Sister Qiao heard this, she waved her hand without waiting for her to finish speaking, and said, "Auntie is too worried, where is it so delicate." Let me live as you want, just like me and Qing'er. Also, when we came, we heard people say that grandma was sick, but now she is better? ”

Qing'er also said: "Exactly, Granny Li said that Grandma has been sick for several days, and I am still wondering why I haven't been able to pick up my house for so long, it turns out that there is such a reason." ”

Wang Liu said: "Look at me I'm confused, grandma didn't know what to think a few days ago, I wanted to go to the temple to make a vow, it rained when I came, I didn't watch out for the road slippery and fell, I twisted my waist, and I lost your pillar brother to carry it back." Isn't this just a break, the girl is here, come with me to see grandma, she misses you and your mother a lot. ”

Sister Qiao nodded silently, thinking that Grandma Liu must have listened to her mother's words to repay her vows, so she caused this illness. I couldn't imagine that the poor family was so brave and loyal, and it was even more affectionate and righteous than the people of Rongguofu, so I couldn't help but sigh a little. Thinking that Grandma Liu and Wang Liu might not know the news that Sister Feng had gone, they were afraid that they would lose their manners in front of people, so they kept silent on their faces, and followed Wang Liu to Grandma's house hand in hand with Qing'er.

But she said that Sister Qiao was walking and watching, and what she saw was a different look. Probably because the days are better, the courtyard of the Wang family is longer than the people I saw on the road when I came, and a small ash shed was built on the right side of the door, and I asked Qing'er Fang Zhi to know that it was a place to cook and make tea. Not far from the ash shed, there is a peach tree again, there are a few points of tender green between the branches, under the tree is a large vat painted with black paint, the cylinder is not protected from falling leaves and is covered with a layer of slabs, and one side of the vat is a square wellhead, which is also covered with a slab.

The courtyard is not small and small in three side rooms, one is used as a dining room, and the other two are where Qing'er and Ban'er live. There was also a firewood room, and the door was ajar, revealing a neatly heaped stack of firewood inside. Facing the door is the main room with three rooms, the middle one is used as a hall, and the connecting room extending from the left and right is the residence of the dog couple, and the other is the residence of Grandma Liu.

Probably the beginning of spring, the hall did not hang the account, only the empty half-covered door, Wang Liu diligently opened the door to lead Sister Qiao in, then opened the green cloth curtain in the middle, and called out without waiting to enter the door: "Grandma, get up and take a look, see who is coming." ”

Grandma Liu was feeling back pain, and not long after she lay down and closed her eyes, she heard the shouting and never looked up, so she complained on the bed: "I often say that Ban'er is not old, and I think you are the same as him." What does it look like, and who else can do this? Just say I'm not good, let's rest in the morning. "When he finishes speaking, his mind is dizzy, and he will fall asleep.

Wang Liu saw that she couldn't get up, so she smiled awkwardly at Sister Qiao'er, and Qing'er couldn't help but smile when she looked at her: "Grandma, I haven't seen you for a few days, and your old man doesn't want me anymore?" ”

Grandma Liu was stunned, so she hurriedly got up from the kang and sat up, looked up at the opening and closing of the curtain, blinked a few times, and said in disbelief: "Do you dare me to be in a dream?" Why did Qing'er come back, and my Qiao girl, why did you come with you? ”
