Chapter 11 The Little White Pig That Can Be Eaten
()"Brother Ah Li. ”
Jiang Li, who was immersed in his thoughts, was suddenly awakened, and when he heard the sound, he saw the small head of the door curtain poking in, his crystal bright eyes flickering, and then a small body jumped in, driving a warm wind to blow away the coldness in the room.
"My sister is here." Jiang Li didn't notice that there was a little joy in his voice.
"Brother Ah Li, are you hungry, I took a snack, it was made by my mother, but it was delicious." The little man suddenly remembered something, turned around and ran to the door again, lifted the curtain and shouted: "Cui Yu, Cui Yu, come in." ”
Cui Yu brought in the food box and took out four small plates, a plate of sesame cakes, a plate of peanut cake, a plate of ginger candy rolls, and a plate of nuts, and put them on the small table of the wooden couch by the window.
Looking back, I saw that the water had been boiled next to me, and I took a set of green and white glazed tea sets on the table, because children should not drink tea, the house specially made the osmanthus nectar with dried osmanthus and wild honey cellars, and rushed to the strong fragrance with a sweetness, which is the most suitable with dim sum. Cui Yu rushed into the water and asked curiously: "Young Master Cousin, Erdan, where has Changsheng gone, why don't you even have someone to serve?" ”
"I want to stay alone for a while, so Changsheng took Changxing out, saying that he was taking Changxing to familiarize himself with the situation in the house."
Liu Qin walked around the room, and when he turned around, he saw that Cuiyu was all set, and he waved his hand to Cuiyu, "Cuiyu, you look for Changsheng to play, and I will play with Brother Ah Li." ”
Cui Yu was originally a playful person, and when he saw that he had nothing to do, he agreed and went out. Liu Qin pulled Jiang Li up, the two took off their shoes, climbed on the wooden couch and sat down, first picked up their favorite sesame cake, broke a piece and stuffed it into Jiang Li's mouth, broke another piece and stuffed it into his mouth, wrapped a mouthful and asked vaguely while eating, "Is it delicious?" ”
Jiang Li ate very gently, chewed slowly, ate two bites, lowered his eyelashes, covered the sadness in his eyes, and said softly: "My mother also makes this taste." ”
Xiao Zheng misses his mother too much. Liu Qin took a sip of water and swallowed the food in his mouth, then blinked and asked very innocently: "Brother Ah Li, do you miss your father and mother?" ”
Jiang Li didn't dare to raise his head, he was afraid that as soon as he raised his head, tears would flow out uncontrollably, his father once said that a man stands up to the sky, and he doesn't flick if he has tears, how can he cry in front of his cousin who is younger than himself, and he held back his tears vigorously, and then said in a low voice: "Yes." ”
"I want to, too." Liu Qin is talking about his parents in his previous life, although they are not intimate with themselves, but sometimes they also fall into dreams, telling their thoughts in their dreams, no matter what, the relationship between parents and children is always cut, even if it is not so obvious in ordinary times.
"Sister, you ......"
"At night, if I can't sleep, I will miss my father and mother." Jiang Li forgot about his heartache and stared at him in surprise, Liu Qin hurriedly remedied: "My mother said that the stars in the sky are all changed by people, Brother Ah Li, your father and mother should also become stars, you should go to see the stars when you want them." My mother also said that Qin'er must be happy and happy, and Brother Li's mother must also say in the sky, Brother Li must be happy, Brother Li, right? ”
Jiang Li's tears were about to come out again, sad and warm, he lowered his head and twisted his fingers, and it took a long time before he said softly: "Yes." ”
"Brother Ali, eat."
"Eat this, this is delicious." Xiao Liuqin kept his hands, feeding Xiao Zhengtai with one hand and himself with the other.
I didn't stop until I had a full burp, who is to blame, I can only blame my mother for making too delicious dim sum. Jiang Li handed over the honey/water at hand and fed it to his little cousin, and when he saw that she stopped burping, he pursed his lips and smiled: "My sister can really eat it." ”
"Well, my mother also said, I can eat so much, just like the little white pig raised by the cook, eat, sleep, sleep and eat, straight long meat, Brother Ah Li, you also have to eat more, grow more meat, then I will be a little white pig, you are a big white pig."
"How can anyone say they're pigs?"
"Hehe, big white pig."
"Don't scream."
"Haha, big white pig."
There was a burst of cheerful laughter in the house, and the laughter oscillated, and at this moment, a gust of wind passed, and the camphor in the yard also shook, and the branches and leaves swayed, as if to applaud the owner of the house.
When the last sunset is also silent, although the sky is still slightly bright, the main courtyard of Liufu has lit lanterns, and people come and go in the small banquet hall, like a festival. Although it is not a formal banquet, and there are no outsiders, the old lady attaches great importance to it, today is Jiang Li's reception banquet, and it is also the first day that Jiang Li officially entered the Liu family.
The old lady swore to Xiao Luo in her heart that she would treat Jiang Li as her own child, so today's solemnity is also to tell all the subordinates of the Liu family, Jiang Li is also their master, and they will treat the young master like their own brother. There are always some people who step on the low and praise the high, and the old lady said this, Jiang Li has a foothold in Liufu, at least on the surface, he can get the respect he deserves.
The Liu family has a small population, and there are not so many rules, so the main family only has one seat, and there is no separate table for men and women.
Jiang Li saw Master Liu for the first time, a little nervous, fortunately with Liu Qin's strong lubricant, Master Liu was unusually amiable, without the posture of an official master, before the banquet began, he called Jiang Li alone, asked him about his daily learning, and by the way, he also took a test of his homework, Liu Qin saw that his father nodded straight, it seems that Jiang Li's table Xiàn can get into the eyes of his father, and he is happy for a while, more proud than he has won his father's praise.
Jiang Li's generosity and gentleness made Master Liu very satisfied, this child is well taught, although I heard that my cousin-in-law is a down-and-out talent, but looking at Jiang Li's every move, it is obvious that my cousin-in-law is also really talented and learned, but he is not lucky, so he is trapped in a poor mountain village all his life, alas, the deceased is gone, I only hope that my cousin and cousin-in-law can bless this child in the spirit of heaven.
After sighing in his heart, Master Liu encouraged Jiang Li a few more words, saying that the Liu family will be his home in the future, and he will be here just like his own home, without any restraints and burdens, and if there is something wrong, he must be dealt with according to the Liu family's family law like the children of the Liu family. In the end, he said that when he settled down and rested for three or five days, he and Hai Ge'er would go to the home school to listen to Mr. Zhang's lectures.
Jiang Li heard Master Liu say this, and the last bit of worry in his heart was also put down, his mother often mentioned his cousin and aunt before his death, so although it was the first time he saw him, he was close in his heart. This time he had no choice but to go to the Liu family, Jiang Li was unwilling, he wanted to stay in front of his father's grave and keep filial piety with all his heart, but his mother said that this was her last wish before she died, she didn't want her favorite child to stay here alone, suffering a lot, she hoped that Ah Li could live well after she left, she believed that her cousin would treat Ah Li well and give Ah Li a warm home.
Jiang Li left his hometown where he had lived for ten years with his mother's wishes, and also took away the poor but beautiful childhood memories, and embarked on the road to Wucheng with a nervous mood, he didn't know if his aunt was the same as he imagined, and he didn't know if his uncle and the rest of the Liu family could accept him, his heart was like duckweed floating on the water, he didn't know whether he could stay or go, and where the road ahead was, he only felt a white expanse in front of him.
But now, his heart is settled, this is his future home, his uncle and aunt are his relatives, and his sister, thinking of this, looking up, the little man is sitting in the arms of Master Liu, is smiling at him, seeing him, and making a naughty grimace.
Suppressing the sourness in his eyes, Jiang Li silently told his relatives in heaven in his heart: Dad, mother, don't worry, Ah Li has a home again, Ah Li still has a sister, Ah Li is not alone.
