Chapter Twenty-Three: Grandma

Saying goodbye to Wang Junran, it was already evening time when he sat on the bus on the return trip, Lin Qing sat by the window, leaning against the window with a scarf on his head, and the heating in the car made Lin Qing feel sleepy again.

It's sunset, the car is driving on the flat avenue, the withered trees and billboard street lights are slowly disappearing behind the mind, and the sun is setting in the sky, with the sunset in the sky.

Lin Qing raised his eyes to stare at the sunset, which slowly moved backwards like a tree with the movement of the bus, but at sunset, the red and pink clouds spread over the entire horizon like an endless stretch, embracing the sunset.

"Is it pretty?" Xu Ping'an sat next to him and asked softly.

Xu Ping'an's cold voice made Lin Qing's chaotic mind sober up a little, and the blink was a tacit acquiescence.

"These clouds have to be obedient clouds during the day, and they dare to play so unbridled at the end of the day. Maybe color is the true color of the cloud? Lin Qing thought so, and said it like this.

Xu Ping'an was stopped by this, lowered his head and thought for a while, before he smiled and whispered as if affirmatively: "Yes, maybe they are colored." ”

The low voice hypnotized Lin Qing's head generally, but she blinked hard and didn't seem to want to miss these beautiful sunsets.

Zhang Yi in the back seat also fell asleep by the window, and it was rare that he didn't come over to intervene and make trouble. She and Xu Ping'an watched such a sunset together, sat on the rickety bus together, listened to the radio in the bus together, everything was so quiet, it's good.

- Lin Qing thought this before falling asleep.

After getting off the bus, the three of them said goodbye at the corner, Lin Qing and Xu Ping'an went home, and Zhang Yi continued to walk back to school.

Lin Qing climbed to the top floor with Xu Ping'an sleepy, now she was tired and sleepy, and she just wanted to go home and sleep well.

Xu Ping'an also saw that Lin Qing was sleepy, so naturally he wouldn't bother more, and silently followed upstairs to say goodbye.

"Lin Qing! Where have you been! Just as he was about to turn his head and climb the last step of the stairs, he heard his mother's angry rebuke above him.

This voice woke Lin Qing violently, and when he looked up, his mother was standing at the door and pinching her waist to look at her.

Lin Qing saw this and knew that if she didn't hurry up and stop this Ms. Sheng, she was very likely to be bloody in front of Xu Ping'an. So she hurriedly rushed upstairs, pushed her mother into the door, and finally came out and hurriedly waved goodbye to Xu Ping'an, and then closed the door with a "snap".

"Hurry up and clean up, your grandma will be at the train station soon." As soon as she entered the door, Lin's mother didn't have time to talk too much nonsense about her daughter, and she just heard her daughter's voice in the corridor rushing out to rob people and put down the work that was now picked up again, so she could only urge her daughter to be angry while doing it. Mother Lin sighed violently when she thought of this.

Lin Qing remembered that today was the day when his grandmother was going to take the train, put down the scarf and collapsed on the sofa, Lin Qing raised Erlang's legs and watched his mother hurriedly clean up the room inside and out, and said helplessly: "What are you doing cleaning up the room, wouldn't it be good to set off directly." ”

Mother Lin stopped, threw the quilt she was holding on the sofa, pressed Lin Qing's whole head, and after throwing it, she slammed the head of this uncompetitive daughter as if she was angry, pinched her waist and ordered: "Hurry up and clean up, help grandma lay out the quilt, and wait for your Uncle Zheng to drive to pick us up." ”

Lifting the quilt covering his body, Lin Qing was angry and didn't dare to speak, so he picked up the quilt and went to the guest room to make the quilt.

"Don't be so impatient, your grandma is here to take care of you, you have to be grateful, you know?" Mother Lin waved her fist to educate.

"Oh-oh, got it." Lin Qing dragged his throat and replied, "Thanksgiving, thanksgiving." ”

-------------------------------------

Seeing Lin Qing's mother and daughter hurriedly entering the house, there was a "snap", and the side of the lively day suddenly quieted down.

Because of the cold weather, the windows of the corridor were tightly closed, and the old voice-activated lights in the corridor could only swaying and emitting a faint light, and the surrounding silence was terrifying, and it became Xu Ping'an's familiar appearance.

After a long time, it was so long that the voice-activated lights went out, and when the lights were turned on, I didn't feel how bright the lights were, and when the lights went out, I felt how much of a presence the lights were. The sun had set, there was no light in the corridor, mixed with the unique smell of bricks and tiles of old buildings, Xu Ping'an moved his stiff legs, and stepped up the steps softly step by step.

"Peace, I'm back." Opening the door, Xu's mother was holding fragrant dishes on the table, beckoning Xu Ping'an to come over for dinner.

"Hmm." Xu Ping'an replied.

After tidying up, Xu Ping'an took the chopsticks and sat down to eat, chewing the meal carefully made by his mother one bite at a time.

Lin Qing didn't know that only the dining table of their mother and son was quite quiet, Xu Ping'an grew bigger and bigger, becoming more and more silent, and this home became quieter and quieter.

The two people at the dinner table ate carefully, and even the sound of chopsticks touching the porcelain plate was rarely made, Xu's mother sighed in a low voice, raised her eyes to look at her excellent son, and said slowly: "Ping'an, where are you going today?" ”

Xu Ping'an paused for a second when he heard this, then took a bite of food lightly, and replied lightly: "With Zhang Yi and Lin Qing, they went to the city to have a meal." ”

Mother Xu slowly put down her chopsticks, looked at Xu Ping'an, and slowly considered her tone: "Today... Is it okay? ”

Xu Ping'an choked and nodded in acquiescence. He knew why his mother had this attitude, and he also knew that his mother was naturally asking him about his physical problems, since he was a child, as long as he went out alone, he would face such a situation when he came back.

"It's okay..."Mother Xu breathed a sigh of relief, and hesitated: "Then next time... How about going anywhere to play with your mom? ”

Xu Ping'an put down his chopsticks, bowed his head and did not speak. Mother Xu swallowed her saliva and looked at her son quietly, the other party lowered her head and couldn't see the attitude clearly, Xu's mother's eyes were red, and grievances and worries poured out all of a sudden.

Xu Ping'an didn't look up for a long time, he was also afraid of seeing his mother's appearance, took a deep breath, picked up the chopsticks to eat again, and replied lightly: "Well, I know." ”

Xu's mother, who received an affirmative reply, breathed a sigh of relief, took out a piece of paper to wipe the tears swirling in her eyes, and continued to pick up chopsticks to eat.

After the meal, he helped clean up the table, Xu Ping'an leaned on the rocking chair and slowly shook his head to look up at the sky.

"Lin Qing, hurry up!"

"I know! Wait for me! ”

There was a faint sound of dialogue downstairs, Xu Ping'an listened attentively, it was Lin Qing's voice, the voice was so loud that he could hear it upstairs, Xu Ping'an couldn't help but shake his head and laugh.

The lively conversation gradually disappeared with the sound of the car starting, and the surrounding area returned to quiet for a while.

Lin Qing is really, always noisy.

Xu Ping'an looked up at the moon, today's moon is very round, hidden behind the clouds, the breeze blows, the clouds drift away, the moon is displayed in the air, the moonlight is like flowing water, clear and cold, sprinkled on the earth through the clouds, and integrated into Xu Ping'an's eyes.

also blended into the eyes of Lin Qing, who was leaning against the car window listening to radio music and looking at the moon. Lin Qing thought about the TV series he watched a few days ago, the actor raised his wine glass and said to the heroine, I wish Wen a pot of wine under the moonlight, the close-up camera pulls to the wine glass, and the moon floats quietly in the wine glass.

At that time, she was still curious, how did the moonlight drink? But now, although I haven't tasted the taste of wine, under the moonlight, two people can raise their wine glasses and hold the moonlight, talk about life and the future, and talk about everything, such a scene should be very beautiful.

The moon quietly hid behind the clouds again, hiding the cold light, sprinkled on the ground, the moonlight on the car and pedestrians slowly faded away, Lin Qing slowly closed his eyes, the music was nearing the end, and the world was hidden in silence.

-------------------------------------

Lin Qing moved the stool, rubbed his hands and looked next door, but he didn't see a familiar figure, Lin Qing was a little disappointed.

I tiptoed to Xu Ping'an's room again, the room light was also dim, I should have been sleeping. Well... Lin Qing sighed regretfully, turned his head and prepared to jump off the stool and go back to his room to sleep.

"Bang", there was a faint sound of turning on the lights next door, and Lin Qing, who lowered his head, only felt that the light in Xu Ping'an's room was lit up.

Xu Ping'an's room light is on! Lin Qing raised his head and leaned back on the wall to look next door.

"Why are you here?" Xu Ping'an opened the door, raised his head and bumped into the girl's head, the light was dim, if he was not prepared, he looked coldly, he could really be frightened by such a scene.

Lin Qing tried hard to tiptoe half of his body against the wall, and said with a smile: "Our house is in chaos, I'll come over and say goodnight to you." ”

Xu Ping'an then remembered that Lin Qing's mother and daughter were in a hurry when they were separated in the afternoon, and they heard the sound of the car starting downstairs at night, it seems that something happened?

"My grandma is here. Xu Ping'an. Without waiting for Xu Ping'an to react, Lin Qing continued to giggle and say, "You can't play casually in the future, my grandma is ...... fierce" As he spoke, Lin Qing changed from a statement of events to a pure complaint.

After complaining for more than ten minutes, Lin Qing stopped, swallowed his saliva, and summarized his statement in a dumb voice, "That's it...... You say she's not a nuisance. ”

"Well, it's annoying." Xu Ping'an agreed.

Grandma's shouts came from the house, Lin Qing stretched his neck and answered the house, turned his head and hurriedly wanted to jump off the stool, "Then I'll say goodbye first, good night." ”

Xu Ping'an was also a little sleepy, and waved his hand to instruct: "Be careful, good night." ”

Saying goodbye to Xu Ping'an and opening the door and entering the house, Lin Qing collapsed on the sofa, and there was a boring mother-in-law and daughter-in-law drama on the TV, Lin Qing rolled his eyes and reached out to pick up the remote control and prepare to change the channel.

"What are you doing?" Grandma rushed over and grabbed the remote control to stop Lin Qing's turntable.

Pouting, Lin Qing snorted boredly, didn't speak, got up and wanted to go back to the room. "Why did you tell me to come out, I'll go back to sleep if it's okay."

Grandma sat cross-legged on the sofa, "It's nothing, just look at what you're messing up in the room." ”

Lin Qing was speechless, glancing at the air, really speechless for his grandmother. "Oh, then I'll go back to sleep."

"Go back, go back." Grandma's eyes were glued to the boring mother-in-law drama on TV, and she waved her hand to send Lin Qing back to sleep.

Let me come out and say goodnight to you. Lin Qing complained silently in his heart, turned his head and closed the door to sleep.

The moon quietly cleared the clouds, the cold moonlight sprinkled down, regardless of the fireworks and joys and sorrows in the world, the moon will always hang in the sky so cold and cold, sprinkling the moonlight to the world, soothing the frowning brows of frustrated people.
