When Aunt Wen asked about her home, Zhang Xiaoqiang smiled helplessly, lowered her head, and did not answer. Aunt Wen saw her expression, and did not continue to ask anything, behind the lens was a gentle gaze.

Mr. Ji said to his wife: "We still have to thank this Xiaoqiang girl!" ”

"Of course, of course, I have known Xiaoqiang for a while, and it is not easy for the baby to go out early and return late to do business!" As Aunt Wen spoke, she took out five sheets of unity from her pocket and stuffed them into Zhang Xiaoqiang's hand.

Zhang Xiaoqiang refused to accept anything, she insisted: "Auntie, this is not a big deal, really, if you do it again, I will leave!" ”

"You kid, you helped me this time, sent me home, and you always left me buns before, I don't know how to thank you, look at you." Aunt Wen really feels that Xiaoqiang is a good child, different from ordinary people from the countryside.

Aunt Wen shouted towards the kitchen: "Xiao Liu, bring some fruit to the living room!" Xiao Liu answered, and after a while, a plate of apples and a plate of oranges were served.

Aunt Wen peeled an orange for Zhang Xiaoqiang first and said, "Eat, Miss Xiaoqiang, you're welcome." ”

Zhang Xiaoqiang took the orange and put it in her mouth one by one. She looked at her aunt's feet and said, "Auntie, how do your feet feel now?" ”

Aunt Wen shook her head and said, "It's okay, Dr. Hu is your Uncle Ji's health care doctor, and we usually have daily colds and bumps, and he will come with a phone call." Didn't he say it today, it's fine. ”

Zhang Xiaoqiang looked at the large bookshelf in the living room, neat and complete books, line-bound, paperback, numbered, all written in small block letters, the whole is a family library. On the table were the day's newspapers, and the important parts were cut and pasted. The layout of the living room is also full of bookish flavor, although I can't guess what kind of big person this family is, but it is definitely not an ordinary official.

Aunt Wen looked at Zhang Xiaoqiang's eyes looking around the bookshelf, and she asked, "Miss Xiaoqiang, do you like to read?" ”

Zhang Xiaoqiang nodded, because when she was in school, she still liked to read, and then she didn't have the opportunity to read.

"Miss Xiaoqiang, I think you are different from ordinary girls from the countryside, although you are a small businessman, but you are smart and beautiful, I don't know what your plans are in the future?" Aunt Wen asked kindly, she felt that Zhang Xiaoqiang was such a girl, and it was definitely not a long-term solution to do a small business and sell steamed buns.

Zhang Xiaoqiang remembered the thought hidden in her heart, and she said to Aunt Wen: "I plan to take the college entrance examination, I want to go to college and let myself learn more knowledge." ”

Aunt Wen didn't expect Zhang Xiaoqiang to have such a plan, she said, "What are you graduating?" How's the result? ”

Zhang Xiaoqiang said: "I graduated from junior high school and was a middle school in the town, and my grades were quite good at that time. ”

When Aunt Wen heard Zhang Xiaoqiang say this, she nodded in approval and said, "After graduating from junior high school and taking the college entrance examination, it takes a lot of effort." Although the college entrance examination policy has been liberalized now, you have to make up for the three years of high school alone, which is very hard. ”

"Auntie, I'm not afraid of hard work, I will earn my own money to support myself, squeeze time to study, read, and I will definitely be able to pass the exam." Zhang Xiaoqiang's determined gaze made Aunt Wen look at her differently.

"Oh, good boy, are you going to start reviewing now?" Aunt Wen is very concerned about Zhang Xiaoqiang's current study situation.

Zhang Xiaoqiang remembered the college entrance examination textbook that Teacher Zhao gave her, and was burned by that evil woman Shen Cuihua, she lowered her head silently.

Aunt Wen looked at Zhang Xiaoqiang's somewhat sad expression, and she asked, "What's wrong?" ”

Zhang Xiaoqiang was reluctant to mention the past, and when she saw this Aunt Wen's kind face, she still said the reason: "I originally borrowed a set of textbooks, and there were notes on it, and I was very happy at that time, but" Zhang Xiaoqiang finally did not say anything about the book being burned, because she felt that the ugliness of the family should not be publicized.

Aunt Wen's eyes were full of doubts, and Zhang Xiaoqiang continued: "The book was accidentally lost in the end, and it was never recovered. ”

Aunt Wen smiled and said, "Good boy, don't be too sad, who made us so fateful!" ”

Then he said something that made Zhang Xiaoqiang happy: "I have the book you want at home, which my eldest grandson used." Your Uncle Ji loves books, and he stores all the books at home, saying that it will always be useful. ”

When Zhang Xiaoqiang heard this, she couldn't have been happier.

Xiao Liu walked out of the kitchen and said, "Uncle and aunt, the meal is ready, I'll bring the food here, Auntie's feet are inconvenient!"

Mr. Ji nodded, Xiao Liu entered the kitchen, Zhang Xiaoqiang was about to get up to help, but was stopped by Aunt Wen and said, "Miss Xiaoqiang, you are my guest today, how can you let you do it?" ”

Ma Li's Xiao Liu quickly put the meal on the coffee table in front of him, pushed Mr. Ji over, and the car stabilized. Zhang Xiaoqiang looked at the meal in front of her, wow, it was really hearty.

Aunt Wen said, "Miss Xiaoqiang, your uncle and I are both southerners and love rice, and I don't know if today's food is to your liking?" ”

Zhang Xiaoqiang looked at the food on the table, although it was not a delicacy, it was all ordinary home-cooked food, but it was quite exquisite, the color matching was very good, and it looked very appetizing.

"Come on, come on, eat, Miss Xiaoqiang, move your chopsticks!" Aunt Wen put vegetables in Zhang Xiaoqiang's bowl, and Mr. Ji was also urging Zhang Xiaoqiang to move her chopsticks to eat.

Zhang Xiaoqiang picked up the chopsticks and ate them. "That's right, there are not too many restraints in my family, usually just me, your uncle, Xiao Liu, and my children and grandchildren don't come back often." Aunt Wen said to Zhang Xiaoqiang.

It was the first time for Zhang Xiaoqiang to eat such a delicious meal, and in her previous life, she had seen a lot of delicious food when she was wandering in the spiritual space, but she had never eaten it. She couldn't help but say to Xiao Liu: "Sister Xiao, the food you cook is so delicious!" ”

Xiao Liu smiled very shyly, she said: "I will do whatever my uncle and aunt like to eat, and after a long time, I will do it smoothly and skillfully." ”

Aunt Wen said: "Yes, Xiao Liu is also a good child, and she has been in my family for five or six years, and she is as kind as my daughter, thanks to her in the past few years." ”

Although this old couple is a person with a head and a face, they are very kind, have no official pretensions, and are easy-going when eating.

After eating, Zhang Xiaoqiang was about to say goodbye, and Aunt Wen asked Xiao Liu to go to the balcony, saying that there was a stack of books wrapped in brown paper in the cardboard box, and asked her to take it out and give it to Zhang Xiaoqiang.

The book was tightly held in Zhang Xiaoqiang's arms, she bowed deeply to the two old men, and said, "Thank you!" ”
