178. Notes

"What do you say? You, you say it again. Say it again!" Chu Xiaoxiao grabbed Li Qin's arm with some excitement.

Li Qin turned his left hand and moved the yellow hairpin to Chu Xiaoxiao's eyes, and said with a trembling mouth: "This is what I bought for Xiaoyan on New Year's Day." I've just seen, I've just seen Xiaoyan. ”

"Grandma, what does grandma look like?"

"What do you mean?"

"What do you see your grandmother look like, what is she wearing?"

"Just like before I left, with a double ponytail. Wearing, wearing a pale yellow dress. Li Qin recalled.

Chu Xiaoxiao shook his head and said, "Old man Li, are you mistaken? My grandmother is in her sixties this year, how can she still be the young girl when you left?"

Li Qin shook his head, "No, that's Xiaoyan." Could it be that Xiaoyan has crossed over like me? or... Are you lying to me? I didn't travel to the future at all. It's all fake, it's all an illusion. I'm dreaming! Where are you?

"Smack"

The hot pain on his face made Li Qin sober up in an instant. Li Qin slowly turned his face, and Chu Xiaoxiao's hand that had just slapped out had not yet been withdrawn. Chu smiled and glared at Li Qin, and his originally gentle and delicate voice became sharp and cold, "Li Qin, you are sober." Accept reality, this is reality. Not everyone has such adventures as yours, we are all ordinary people. Grandma is also an ordinary person, and in forty years, grandma will also grow old. Alright, let's go home. ”

Li Qin didn't blame Chu Xiaoxiao for slapping himself. Thinking about it, he felt that Chu Xiaoxiao was not wrong. Forty years have passed, how can his lover still be the same as he was at the beginning, but the hairpin in his hand seems to overturn this theory. Li Qin put the hairpin into his pants pocket and whispered, "Xiaoxiao, I'm embarrassed just now." ”

Chu Xiaoxiao shook his head, and stood on the side of the road through the big tree on his own, waiting for a taxi. It was very quiet along the way, Chu Xiaoxiao kept looking at the city under the starry sky outside the car window, and Li Qin kept sitting on the side and looked at Chu Xiaoxiao looking out of the car.

Half an hour later, the taxi arrived at the gate of the complex and stopped. The two got out of the car, Chu Xiaoxiao looked at his phone, it was already eight o'clock in the evening. Chu Xiaoxiao looked up at the underground supermarket not far from the opposite side of the road and said, "I want to eat potato chips, shall we go down and buy some?"

Li Qin knew that this was Chu Xiaoxiao under the steps for him, nodded and took Chu Xiaoxiao's hand across the road. Walking into the underground supermarket, Li Qin consciously pushed a shopping cart. Seeing Li Qin who was consciously pushing the shopping cart, Chu Xiaoxiao's cold face bloomed with a smile, "Old man Li, you are very conscious." Now, you made me angry today, shouldn't you spend some money today in order to please me?"

Li Qin also smiled and said, "You girl, you are quite good." Take whatever you want, go for it. ”

Chu Xiaoxiao was not polite to Li Qin, and took the snacks bag by bag. The two of them wandered around for a long time, and Li Qin suddenly remembered that the unkempt head of the shower at home was broken, so he patted Chu Xiaoxiao, who was still shopping, and smiled, "You look at it first, and I'll go get an unkempt head." ”

"Uh-huh, go ahead. I'll be waiting for you at the cash register in a moment. Chu Xiaoxiao looked at the two bags of potato chips with different flavors and said absentmindedly.

Li Qin easily took a bag of both flavors and put them in the shopping cart. "Eat less of this stuff in the future, it is said on the Internet that eating too much of this stuff is not good for your health. ”

"Oh, got it, old man Li. Go, go, take your unkempt hair!" Chu Xiaoxiao gently nudged Li Qin. The two of them act like a nagging grandfather accompanying his granddaughter to the supermarket.

Li Qin smiled, didn't bother Chu Xiaoxiao anymore, and turned around and walked towards the place where he bought kitchen and bathroom supplies.

Chu Xiaoxiao pushed the shopping cart and took a few steps forward, and suddenly a hand fished out the potato chips that Li Qin had just put in from her shopping cart and hung them back in their original places.

"Hey, you're sick!" Although Chu Xiaoxiao hadn't seen what the other party looked like, her anger had already made her open her mouth first. Chu smiled and turned his head. I saw a girl in a pale yellow dress and a double ponytail about the same size as herself standing in front of the shelf and smiling at herself.

The girl's clothes felt a sense of disobedience, but Chu Xiaoxiao felt that the sense of disobedience might come more from the smile on the girl's face. The smile on the girl's face looked inexplicably uncomfortable. But Chu Xiaoxiao couldn't care so much, and shouted angrily at the girl: "Hey, girl, you take something from my box and put it back, what do you mean?"

The girl said gently, "Smile, eat less potato chips." Not good for the body. ”

The feeling of the girl speaking made Chu Xiaoxiao feel an inexplicable familiarity. But before Chu Xiaoxiao could ask, the girl turned around and walked towards the aisle of the next shelf. Chu Xiaoxiao felt a little inexplicable, she walked back to the place where she had just put the potato chips, and when she was about to take the two bags of potato chips back into the shopping cart again, she looked at the two bags of potato chips. One bag is tomato flavor and the other bag is barbecue flavor. A childhood memory burst out of Chu Xiaoxiao's mind. When I came to visit my grandmother when I was a child, I also bought things in this underground supermarket, and when I put these two flavors of potato chips in the shopping cart, my grandmother put them back and turned to herself and said, "Smile, eat less potato chips." Not good for the body. ”

Chu Xiaoxiao remembered Li Qin's description of the grandmother he saw at that time: pale yellow dress, double ponytail...

"Ahh The pale yellow figure wasn't there, she searched, rows and rows of shelves flashing before her eyes. However, the pale yellow figure never appeared in Chu Xiaoxiao's sight again.

"Xiaoxiao, what are you doing here?" Chu Xiaoxiao heard Li Qin's voice behind him.

Chu Xiaoxiao turned his head, only to see Li Qin, who was holding unkempt hair, standing behind Chu Xiaoxiao and looking at Chu Xiaoxiao with a puzzled expression.

Chu Xiaoxiao suddenly didn't know what to say, she hurriedly took a step forward, only to have her leg kicked on the shopping cart in front of her.

"Hey, be careful. Li Qin pulled the shopping cart.

Chu Xiaoxiao was stunned when she saw the shopping cart, how could her shopping cart be here. She pointed to the shopping cart and asked, "This car... Where did it come from?"

Chu Xiaoxiao's words made Li Qin feel very strange, Li Qin patted the shopping cart lightly and said, "You just pushed it over, what's wrong?" ”

Chu Xiaoxiao shook his head and said, "It's nothing, maybe I've been too tired lately." Old man Li, go to the checkout. ”

"Here, your bag. Li Qin took out Chu Xiaoxiao's small bag from the shopping cart and handed it to Chu Xiaoxiao.

Chu Xiaoxiao carried the bag on his shoulder, and Li Qin pushed the shopping cart to the cash register. When checking out, Chu Xiaoxiao found that the two bags of potato chips were actually lying in the shopping cart safely. Resemblance has never been taken out in general.

Walking out of the supermarket, Li Qin was struggling to walk behind with two large bags of things, and Chu Xiaoxiao walked in front with his hands behind his back. From time to time, he also teased Li Qin, "Old man Li, you go quickly!"

Walking to the door of the house, Chu Xiaoxiao looked at Li Qin, who was a little panting, smiled, opened his small bag and began to look for the key. When I opened the bag, there was a folded note in the bag. Chu Xiaoxiao stopped the movement in his hand, Li Qin shook his head, put down the things in his hand, took out the key he had assigned before from his pocket, and said, "You didn't bring the key again, right? ”

Li Qin opened the door and carried the two large bags of things on the ground into the house. But Chu Xiaoxiao was still standing at the door. Chu Xiaoxiao held the opened note in her hand, her hands trembling.

Seeing this, Li Qin walked up to Chu Xiaoxiao with some worry, "What's wrong?"

"Look. Chu Xiaoxiao handed the note to Li Qin.

The note reads: Bright Grocery A24 Lin Xiaoyan

The handwriting on the note was already a little blurry, but when he saw Lin Xiaojing's three words, Li Qin also frowned and asked, "Where did this thing come from?"

Chu Xiaoxiao shook his head dumbly and said, "I don't know." Moreover, Li Qin, just now in the supermarket, I saw my grandmother. That one... A young grandmother who is exactly as you described. ”
