Chapter 25 Aunt Gu is here
Sure enough, before lunchtime, there was a knock on the door of Uncle Zhou's house, it was Beibei's aunt and uncle, who had never met.
"The old woman is going to open the door, I'm busy here." Uncle Zhou shouted at his wife who was in cool clothes on the balcony.
"The five grains are not divided into limbs and are not diligent, it is you who are the person, you are not close to me, I am not sure that I am looking for you." A neatly dressed old lady hurriedly walked out of the balcony, looked at the two people at one person and one table, shook her head, and responded: "Come, come, dry clothes on the balcony." ”
Old Man Zhou ignored his wife's squeeze, put down the brush and turned to the back of the desk to nod at the brush words practiced by Bei Bei: "Although this word is boneless and immature, it can barely be seen." It's rare that you have such a stable temperament, not arrogant or impatient, and you are a good seedling for practicing calligraphy. This was written for more than an hour, and the rest rested. ”
Gu Beibei put down the brush and said respectfully: "Yes, thank you, Mr. Zhou." There is no such thing as an overnight thing, and I will work hard. ”
In her previous life, she admired people with profound knowledge of Chinese culture, and knew that there was such a number one person around her, and she couldn't wait to report every day. It's been a month since this came and went, and the two can be regarded as New Year's friends.
Old Man Zhou was happy: "I said kind words at a young age, but now I think about it, you are still cute when you were stupid before." Your parents are top-notch at work, but raising children is unqualified. Didn't you hear that your sister and brother are here, why didn't they hang out together? Grandpa Zhou allows you to lose one big character every day. ”
Gu Beibei shook his head: "I think it's more suitable for me to read more books and write more words, after all, I am not interested in them playing." The book I borrowed yesterday was torn, and although I was careful to glue it, the marks are still obvious, I'm sorry. ”
Old Man Zhou looked at her face that was more serious than himself and smiled: "It is right to cherish books, especially for people who love books, this is their life." All you borrowed before were rubbings, and they weren't rare objects, look at your face this morning. Children have to smile more to be beautiful. ”
Gu Beibei still felt uncomfortable when she remembered what happened yesterday, and said sullenly: "I've rested enough, and I'll finish writing one more chapter first." I'm reading here today, and there are some words and phrases that I can't understand that need to be explained by my grandfather. ”
Old Man Zhou looked at her tight mouth and tight back and shook his head, and he didn't debunk the excuse that the little girl was unwilling to go home. Just now his wife bit his ear with him, and she met at the mouth of the alley this morning and explained everything and asked her to prepare lunch.
When I got out of the study, I heard a conversation in the living room and asked, "Old woman, who's coming?" ”
"It's Beibei's aunt and uncle who came, saying that there was something wrong with taking her home." The old lady put the water on the coffee table and asked, "Have you written all the big characters today?" Don't get down to business. ”
Gu Beibei, who was in the study, heard the person clearly, his hand paused, and the ink dripped on the paper, and this one was ruined. She removed her hand and decided to start writing again.
Old Man Zhou knew Huang Dayou, and he had taken him for three years before, and said with a smile: "The little girl still has a big character today, so I have to wait." It turned out to be Dayou and Xiao Gu, I haven't seen you for a long time, so relatives should move around more. I heard that Otomo is working at the Agricultural Bureau now, how is it? ”
Huang Dayou sat on the sofa stiffly and said with a smile: "It's not good or bad, it's very good to have something to eat at this age." It's Mr. Zhou, it's the same as before. ”
"How can it be the same, they're all retired, old." Seeing that the other party didn't want to say more, the old man didn't talk, so he turned his head and asked, "Is there anything going on in this house?" When I sent Bei Bei to the south today, I said that I would pick it up at night, and I was afraid that your mother would not be able to take care of it. At noon, I was asked to stay for dinner. ”
Huang Dayou's mind is still relatively clear, and he knows that such a thing is not public, so he smiled and didn't answer positively: "It's not a big deal, I want Bei Bei to take it around." ”
"There are roads and houses all around here, and it's a mess, and there's nothing to see. However, the weather is good today, you can take the bus to the park to walk, and bring the elderly and children with you. The old lady and her wife inadvertently met in their eyes, knowing that the couple was not telling the truth, everyone knew Beibei's previous situation, and they were probably not familiar with the way they basically didn't go out.
"Yes, it's very chaotic around, let's go to the park and play." Although it is not clear what the two couples are going to do, it is not easy for them to stop the child's aunt from coming.
Gu Yanhong didn't think about it so much, and began to pour bitter water: "Alas, uncle, I'll tell you the truth." My mother and I are going to go to Guo Huiying's unit to see if she is really so ruthless. ”
Old lady: "Xiao Gu, how did you say this, Hui Ying didn't go to perform in other places, you can't find anyone in the unit." ”
"Auntie, this must have been said to you by my brother, he is too noodle, anyone can rub it a few times." Gu Yanhong ignored her husband's glances at her, and said to herself: "I didn't come over yesterday when I was busy, and I was just about to take the old lady and the child home but was scolded by the old lady, only to know that my brother and his wife divorced quietly, and I don't know what the reason is." Auntie, you said that Bei Bei is so old, what is the whole thing about them? ”
Uncle Zhou was taken aback: "Divorce, you can't, don't have any misunderstanding." ”
"Auntie, I also thought it was my mother who heard the mistake, how can there be a mother who doesn't want the child to go by himself." Gu Yanhong said excitedly: "But my mother said that it has been almost half a month since the divorce, and the father and daughter are living like this day by day." My younger brother has to go to work, and he has to rush back at noon to cook and take care of the little one, and he is almost out of shape. ”
"Now that I think about it, I haven't seen Huiying for a while, and we thought she was busy with work." In fact, the old lady knows a little, after all, Grandma Zhang lives next door, and the two have a good relationship, and they have muttered a few words in private. "It's okay to ask at the unit, the young people are angry, and the family helps to appease and persuade them."
"Who says it's not, my mother and I don't come here often for what, just to let these two live a quiet life, they divorced quietly and directly. What do you call that? Gu Yanhong felt that she was on fire when she thought about it, so she had to ask her to clarify and understand.
Huang Dayou pulled his wife's pants and said embarrassedly: "Let the teacher laugh, it's hard for us to say before the matter is clear." ”
"It's not in the way, the big guys don't know about it, it's not good to shout out." Old Man Zhou waved his hand and got up: "You wait, I'll call Beibei, and I won't keep you." ”
The conversation in the living room can be heard all the time, put down the brush and dry the ink and put it aside, some things can't be escaped, it's better to end it early. She pushed open the door, walked out, and said respectfully, "Old man, I'll come back when it's empty." ”
Uncle Zhou smiled and touched her head: "Good boy, come if you want." ”
Gu Yanhong saw her niece walking straight out, a little unhappy and uncomfortable, and said sullenly: "This child was taught badly by her mother, and she didn't know how to say hello when she saw an adult." Auntie, let's go first. ”
"Excuse me, teacher." Huang Dayou took his wife's hand and quickly kept up with Gu Beibei's pace.
The old couple saw the two pushing and shoved away, and closed the door.
Uncle Zhou asked uncertainly, "Old woman, you already know about this?" Really? ”
The old lady sighed: "Who knows, Grandma Zhang lived close to hearing the two of them talking every day some time ago." It's been a little half a month, Bei Bei has been diligent during this time, and Xiao Gu has come and gone in a hurry. Hey, poor baby girl, this disease is finally cured and there is such a thing. ”
Uncle Zhou said with some regret: "In the past, Bei Bei's girl was so seriously ill and I didn't see the two arguing, good and like a person, why did the girl get sick and get divorced?" I guess it's wrong. ”
The old lady lowered her voice and said: "Grandma Zhang said that some time ago, a magnificent man came to Xiao Gu's house, who was in a red flag car, and many people saw it. Eighty percent are ......"
Uncle Zhou scolded: "What are you talking nonsense about this old woman, just don't talk about it outside if you know it in your heart, don't say anything if there is no shadow in the neighborhood." Think about the helpless sigh: "It's a pity, such a good boy." ”
"Who's to say it isn't." The old lady thought about it and felt that it was wrong: "I'd better call Xiao Gu, his mother and sister don't look at the people who are not carrying it, and they don't know what will happen, but don't have an accident." ”
Uncle Zhou thought about it: "I should also let him know that it's okay for adults to say don't hurt the child." ”
