057 About the matter of recognizing the godmother
As the saying goes, a veteran is a top two! This is very suitable for Dad's driving ability, Dad's driving skills are not ordinarily good.
Although it was dark and the road was not easy to walk, my father sat firmly on the wheel, and by the light of a few lanterns, it didn't take long for the carriage to stop firmly in front of the gate of the small courtyard at home.
The mountain held the lantern high, the mother slid out of the car, took out the key and opened the gate, the father shouted softly, and the carriage obediently turned into the courtyard.
The horse was also tired for a day, and it was borrowed from someone else's house, and my father was very unhappy not to go, and after entering the hospital, he did nothing, but first unloaded the horse from the cover of the cart, led it to the side of the barn, and first added enough forage to it.
While Dad was tending to the livestock, the mountain and the little stone were not idle, and the two of them did not bother to go into the house to drink a sip of hot water, so they hurriedly unloaded the radishes from the car.
The mother frowned distressedly, and hurriedly persuaded her, "Alas, don't be busy yet, you've been running all day, eat something first and then pick up these." ”
"Mother is fine, we are not tired," said Dashan as he bent down and picked up a bag of radishes, and walked into the back room, "We are young and strong, and we are afraid of being busy, compared to those who work in the quarry, we are so relaxed." ”
"Yes, mother, Brother Dashan is right," Xiaoshi just sent a bag of radishes back, and passed by Dashan, he continued Dashan's words, "We can't wait for God to drop pies from the sky, what are we afraid of when we are tired, these radishes are exchanged for dried radish, and we are counting on them to exchange for Dazi, they can't be frozen." ”
"They're all good boys, good boys. The mother said with relief, lifted the placket of her clothes and wiped the corners of her eyes, and also took a few steps forward to join the ranks of moving radishes.
Yun Fang knew that the mountain and the small stone were touched by the big lock, and the experience of the big lock carrying his head to work in the quarry stimulated them, they were not used to talking arrogantly, but they vented their emotions in this way of trying to do their duty.
Seeing the happy appearance of the family, Yun Fang also sniffed and followed her sister Yun Hua to get busy.
The so-called everyone gathered firewood and the flame was high, and the Lan family worked together, and after a while, they moved a large cart full of radishes to a relatively warm back room, and covered them with broken quilts.
After placing a cart of radishes, Yunhua was busy bringing up the hot meal, which was still corn kernel rice, mixed with some white rice. The dish is a pickled radish strip by himself, and there is a special dish that has been added to stew a few potatoes bought in the morning.
Yun Fang looked at her sister who had filled six bowls of rice, placed six pairs of chopsticks, tilted her head and asked suspiciously, "Why are there six bowls of rice, you, you, you haven't eaten either?"
"Look what kind of stupid thing this kid is talking about," the mother smiled indifferently, and said to her father, "The three of them don't come home so late, can we eat first?"
"Hehe, what a stupid boy," Dad rubbed his hands and said with a smile, "Okay, let's not talk about it, now that it's all here, we can finally eat with peace of mind." ”
"Yes, let's eat quickly, or it will be cold again, and it will have to be hot again. Yun Hua said urgically, picked up a bowl of hot rice, and sent it to Yun Fang's hands.
"Eat, eat, I'm really hungry this time. Dashan rubbed his belly and quarreled, the first one picked up the rice bowl, thought about it, and stuffed it into Xiaoshi's hand, and said casually, "Eat all, eat all, don't be embarrassed." ”
"Good, good, I'll eat, I'll eat. Xiao Shi was stunned for a moment, but he still obediently took the rice bowl and smiled with satisfaction.
In fact, the Lan family's dinner has been delayed until now, more than an hour later than usual, not only the mountain, Xiaoshi and Yun Fang, who have been busy all day, are hungry, but Dad, Mother and Yun Hua have been waiting for so long, and everyone is also hungry.
For a while, I only heard the sound of dishes and chopsticks, and no one talked more, and they all buried their heads in eating.
Dashan eats the fastest, after he picked up two large bowls of rice, the first one put down the chopsticks, looking at the big guy who is still eating, he burped while casually asking, "Dad, mother, do we have any other acquaintances and friends in Lizigou?" I don't remember." ”
"Acquaintances, friends?" Dad thought about it, put down the dishes and chopsticks, thought for a while, and then shook his head and said, "Li Zigou doesn't have any acquaintances or friends in our family, so I have to say that there is, that is, I once made a kang for someone there, so I know that family." ”
"I know about this," Dashan immediately took over his father's words, "Didn't we talk about it earlier, Shi went directly from the market to Lizigou to sell radish strips, a lady reminded me, or did she lead the way?" Later, we learned that the person's name was Aunt Ju, and my father gave them a kang last time. ”
"It's a coincidence, the family is very good, the last time I went to Pankang, they not only gave the salary, but also the food was very good. After Dad finished speaking, he asked with emotion, "This time people have helped us so much, have you thanked them well?"
"Why not, we gave her a bowl of radish strips for nothing, and Fang'er invited her to the engagement banquet of Hua'er and Shishi. Dashan said proudly.
"Then, did Aunt Ju agree? How did you tell people?"
They have fallen out with Boss Lan and Li Yuzhen in the past two days, one of their two families is a father's brother, and the other is a mother's mother's brother, which makes the mother feel unsure, worried that there will be no relatives to participate that day, so that the long-tongued women in the village will talk nonsense, leaving Shi and Yunhua with any regrets.
Now that I heard that Yunfang had invited Aunt Ju from Li Zigou, my mother's heart moved, and she immediately hurried to ask with great interest.
"That Aunt Ju likes me, I invited her, can she not come," Yun Fang somewhat understood her mother's thoughts, she pushed the dishes and chopsticks, and deliberately made a triumphant look, "And ah, she also said that we don't need to pick it up that day, she can find it herself." ”
"That Aunt Ju likes you?" Niang's expression changed, from joy to surprise, she turned her head suddenly, and asked nervously, "She knows you ,......"
The mother's words were not finished, but Yun Fang already understood what the mother wanted to ask, she raised her head proudly, and said crisply, "I told her that I am not Lan Yunhua, but the little one of our family, she still likes me, mother, you can put one hundred and twenty hearts, then Aunt Ju is not the kind of person who judges people by their appearance." ”
"Oh, so when that old sister comes, I have to talk to her well, it's rare that our Fang'er likes her so much, and she likes our Fang'er so much." The mother said happily, her eyes were hot and she almost burst into tears.
Dad was also pleased, and suddenly his eyes lit up, and he proposed, "It's rare that Aunt Ju and Fang'er have a fate, so let Fang'er worship her as a godmother." ”
"This idea is good, this idea is good," Niang's eyes also lit up suddenly, and she said with emotion, "Our relatives are already few, and they are all picking their noses and eyes one by one, it is better to be an irrelevant person, our Fang'er is lucky, I met such a good person when I went out for the first time, and it is just right to worship a godmother, and I will take Fang'er to Lizigou tomorrow." ”
"Mother, don't worry," Yun Fang shook her head, pointed to her face and said, "Today I wear a fur hat, Aunt Ju just knows that it is me, but she doesn't see my face, and when she sees my face that day, if she still likes me, it's not too late for us to worship my godmother." If, tomorrow, we make such a reckless request, if we embarrass the family, a good thing will become a bad thing. ”
"Fang'er, this kid is right, this matter is not in a hurry," Dad picked up his big cigarette pouch again, took a hard puff, and said slowly, "Just now outside, I heard you mention that you met a very generous family in Lizigou, and bought you five bowls of dried radishes with money at once?"
