Chapter XXII
I felt a little flustered along the way. But I'm not going to do anything bad, I haven't even been so nervous when I went to peek at other people's baths with Wang Qiu Xiongzi that summer, what's going on today, I can't figure it out. I always feel that the pedestrians on the road are looking at me, I feel uncomfortable, and the expression of greeting the grandmother is a little unnatural, and I don't forget it.
Rampage walked to the vicinity of the health center, glanced at his mother's ward a few times and did not move forward, seeing his mother like this would only make his mother more worried about himself, even if he wanted to go, he would wear a long sleeve to cover his scar after almost recovering.
"Hero...... Hero ......" There was a familiar shout in his ears, it was the voice of Xiaoyulu. When I turned my head, the little guy was already behind me.
The face is innocent. Xiao Yulu pulled the corner of my clothes and said cutely: "I thought that the hero brother was not coming?" If you don't come again, I'll have to find you myself."
The girl looked around as if she was looking for something, and I hurriedly asked, "What are you looking at?" Did something fall off? ”
Yulu blinked her eyes and asked blankly, "Didn't Brother Wang Qiu come?" He's also a big hero of Yulu."
I was a little embarrassed by Xiao Yulu's question and didn't know what to say, it stands to reason that this time Wang Qiu helped a lot more than himself, not only helped Yulu but also saved himself. If he hadn't been there, he wouldn't have hurt more than this arm. When I was suffering, I always remembered to call that stupid boy, but there was a good thing at the moment, but I couldn't remember this brother at all. I feel a little guilty when I think about it.
"You wait for brother, I'll call you Brother Wang, okay?" I wanted to leave, hoping to make up for my guilt.
"Don't don't," Xiao Yulu hurriedly grabbed me, "Next time, next time you come together, if you don't go to dinner with me again, the food will be cold" dragged me back. Seeing Yulu say this, I had no choice but to compromise, and I was not in a hurry this time when there were many opportunities.
I have the impression that Yulu brought me to this place, which is one of the few resettlement areas in the village. In the past, the villagers lived in some high mountains and some far away. It was inconvenient and too far away from the village, so these resettlement houses were built for everyone to live in. It is considered a place where the population of the village is relatively concentrated. The last time I peeked at someone else taking a bath, it seems to be here, and I even remember that house.
Yulu's mother saw the two of them at the door for a long time, and greeted Yulu and waved to me. Yulu heard her mother's call and ran over in small steps, and I didn't run or walk for a while. I almost forgot how to walk, and I always felt that my left foot was awkward, and my right foot was unnatural.
I didn't dare to look at my aunt, so I finally walked to the door with my head bowed slightly.
A simple greeting and walked through the door. It can be seen that Yulu's mother loves Yulu very much, and she also made a separate meal for Yulu, and Yulu also has her own set of exclusive tableware, although it looks a little old, Yulu still can't put it down, and she is particularly careful when holding it in her hand.
"Hungry, huh? I don't know what you like to eat, I'll make it casually, the taste is a little big, it should suit you," Yulu's mother said, saying as she served me vegetables.
I didn't refuse, my mind was full of thinking about how to talk to my aunt next, what to say.
"What? Bad appetite? Seeing that I didn't eat a bite, Yulu's mother was a little surprised
Only then did I realize that I had turned into wood again, and hurriedly stuffed it into my mouth: "No, it's not ......" replied in a few words, just because I was afraid that my aunt would misunderstand me and think too much.
I will never eat it again after eating a bowl, lest I look foreign again, or stay at my aunt's house for a while, help wash the dishes and leave later, otherwise I really don't know what to do if I go on like this. At this time, I thought of Wang Qiu again, how good it would be if I had this kid's mouth, I could talk to anyone, and I often said that he saw people and talked about ghosts, and today I think about it, this may also be a charm, a charm that belongs to Wang Qiu.
.” At home? A man's voice suddenly sounded outside the door.
The people in the house were a little confused, and Yulu's mother didn't know who it was, so she wiped her mouth and opened the door.
"Oh, it turned out to be Brother Li" Yulu's mother saw the acquaintance and warmly greeted the man into the house
I don't know the so-called Brother Li in Yulu's mother's mouth, Yulu called Uncle Li obediently. This made my hanging heart fall, it seems that they should have known each other for a long time, and they are not bad people.
Brother Li was dressed funny, and on a hot day, he wore a shirt and a coat, although it was shabby, it looked very clean. Long-legged pants with a pair of leather shoes, some shiny and reflective, I don't know how long it took to wipe it, the whole person is still clean and decent. But this combination struck me as too unnatural.
Brother Li should be about the same age as his father, not old, a big black mole on the left side of his face is particularly prominent, not to say that the facial features are neat but not ugly, this is my first impression of this strange man.
"It turns out that there are guests at home, this is the little hero?" He greeted me, put the things in his hand on the table, and sat down in the position of Yulu's mother just now. I didn't pay attention to my reply. I was bored with myself, thinking that he was very rude, so I turned my face to the side, and leisurely lit a cigarette while Yulu was not nearby.
Yulu's mother went into the house and took a pair of dishes and chopsticks and put them in front of the man, and then took a stool on the side and sat next to me.
I had no idea that my aunt would sit next to me in such a large circle, and I was startled that the soot was scattered all over my aunt's trouser legs.
Some panicked and hurriedly slapped the cigarette ash away with their hands. My aunt was not angry, shook her legs, snatched my cigarette, and put it in her mouth.
"You promised your aunt not to smoke in the afternoon, why did you order it again?"
Before I could argue, Brother Li on the side snatched the words and asked, "Auntie?" I didn't hear you have such a big nephew? ”
Yulu's mother took a puff of cigarette and replied gently: "Xiong Zi is my eldest nephew, you know, he is Xiong Zi's good brother, and you have to call me aunt." And you should know what happened yesterday, so that the relationship between the two of us is close and close," After saying that, my aunt also threw me a wink. I was still in a state of absent-mindedness, not knowing how to reply to this look, but nodded stiffly, still with an embarrassed smile on my face.
As soon as he talked about the events of that day, Brother Li was energetic. reminded my aunt that she should have told herself about such things as early as possible, sought her own help, and told her how good her relationship with her deceased uncle was, anyway, she just bragged about all kinds of things she wanted to say, and she didn't care whether others liked to hear it or not. I was a little annoyed, and glanced at my aunt, who just listened quietly with a cigarette, smiled faintly, and didn't answer anything.
After a while, Brother Li didn't seem to be able to find what to say, and opened the things on the table, it turned out to be some cold dishes and a bottle of wine, Brother Li said that the time is just right now, the heat is unbearable, it is better to have two drinks. I didn't speak, I know better than anyone else in my heart, with this Brother Li's character, I don't drink and I can say this, if I drink wine, I can't blow it to the sky, I really regret not calling Wang Qiu, let them compete to see who is the most powerful, suddenly I miss Wang Qiu so much......
