As soon as Zhu Jia walked out of the wing, he saw Tian Tianzheng with his head down, coughing lightly from time to time.

The dining table is a countertop made of a few flat pieces of wood by the second uncle before, it has not been changed for nearly 20 years since he remembers, the countertop is sixty centimeters high, it has been repeatedly brushed I don't know how many times, the surface is a little white, and even the original uneven junction is now almost impossible to see what is in between. Sew. Crack.

Behind her was the door, sitting on a wooden stool only a dozen centimeters lower than the table, most of her body curled up together, a few strands of silky hair falling in front of her face.

"What are you looking at?" His expression didn't change much as he walked behind her.

She raised her head and smiled at the young man who walked to the right and placed two small benches: "Your second uncle's kitten is so cute. ”

Zhu Jia sat on her right hand and pulled the small bench back a little farther away.

The square table has four-legged stools with long, uneven wooden blocks embedded around it to prevent the table from shaking.

The middle part of the long strip in front of Zhu Jia was ground very finely, and the dust was all . Black. Inside the wood, he could see a huge crack in it, and he looked hard to see that the nails in the middle were embroidered into the wood on both sides.

In a small space of about one square meter under the table, there is a . Half. Body. Light brown. Hue. Covered with black spots, abdomen. Division. Four. Limb. Snow., white. A kitten, it stuck its head out of the gap between the table and the slender wooden block, and whispered softly to Xu Tiantian, who was sitting there. Call. Non-stop.

"Shall I throw it something to eat?" Xu Tiantian looked at its well-behaved appearance, and his heart couldn't help but give birth. Pity. Love.

"At the second uncle's house, don't waste food, there will be more chicken bones to eat later." Zhu Jia said casually.

"Then I'll start eating it now." Tian Tian glanced at him very happily, and he was not polite at all, holding two long chopsticks that had been used for a long time and looked a little old, and the table was already full of dishes at this time.

Seven large dishes, in front of her is a bowl of edamame roast, chicken, soup. Strong. Yu, there is still a stream. Fragrant. taste, especially to stimulate the appetite. After thinking about it, she moved her chopsticks to a plate of cucumber mixed yuba on the right, with a few shredded carrots scattered in it.

She glanced at the young man on her right: it was calm.

She still ate more than half of a cucumber, leaving a small point and throwing it below, she looked at such a cute kitten below, at this moment, her expression smiled very happily, and the young man in the narration also saw that it was eating cucumbers carefully.

It. Body. There is also a crack in the concrete floor that extends from the bottom of the wall three or four meters away, he remembers this line, many years ago he took his elderly grandfather and second uncle to eat with a family of five, he was still so naughty at that time, he liked to jump across the threshold, he clearly remembered that he was embarrassed to eat at his house when he came back from the middle school entrance examination that year.

Later, I came back many times, and people changed several times, only to find that this time I stood in this place, maybe it was the last time.

The wall he was facing was still down. Face. Painted with a layer of dark cement and topped by broken white lime walls, a calendar turned to No. 2 sloping slightly towards the courtyard.

In the side room next to it, in the dark environment, you can also see a high-pitched mopping electric fan facing the outside of the room, and a layer of oil smoke has accumulated on the fan blades on it.

Outside the door, those clear little dust flew up and down in the sun.

"Would you like something to drink?" The second uncle came over with two empty bowls, and when he walked, his lame right foot made him constantly sway like a right side.

Xu Tiantian said: "I don't need it, just eat vegetables, healthy." She smiled as she spoke. Pure. True. Finish.

"Is there any beer?" Zhu Jia said.

"I don't have beer at home, but I have it at the old house, so I'll get it now."

"No, I'll get it myself." Zhu Jia immediately stood up and wanted to go.

"You're not familiar, you sit down." He was still pulled down by the second uncle and watched the short old man walk out.

Xu Tiantian was still looking at the cute kitten on the table below, Zhu Jia walked to the door, he looked at the space outside the courtyard, more than ten years when he was only a few years old, in the New Year of the cold winter wax moon, the snow outside the door was placed on the firecrackers that had always circled in a big circle, his little brother squatted in the place where the firecrackers opened, and lit them with a lighter.

Zhu Jia had long since run to the place where he sat every day, plugged his ears with his hands, and looked at the outside of the door where the smoke and smell of gunpowder were bubbling outside.

Six or seven meters away on the right, at the location of the original jujube tree in his house, there was a pile of dead branches more than one meter high.

The surrounding area was covered with a thick layer of fallen leaves, and the camphor trees outside the door were still flourishing, and when he looked up at the sky, he could see the blue sky and sparse white clouds above through the broad leaves.

"Ache." His eyes were a little smaller, but he couldn't help but sneeze loudly.

"I don't think it's good for you to be like this, your second uncle has been cooking for so long, and you still want him to buy wine for you to drink." There was a girl's voice in the house, in this quiet village, breaking the quiet, and like the empty valley of the orchid, Qin., Run. to his heart.

When he looked back at her, she was still there. Low. Make move. Body. Zi, she may also feel the slight voice of the young man outside: "By the way, we didn't see any small shops when we came, how far away is that shop?" ”
