"Hey, Second Miss Shen, did the fat orange come to Xu's house?"

The little child Tong had sugar in his mouth, and his speech was slurred, and he still had a whole bag of sugar in his hand, Shen Tong knew this kind of sugar, Azhi bought it for her and Fang Fei, she didn't like sweet, she gave it to Fang Fei, Fang Fei put it in a jar like a baby, and only ate one or two pieces a day.

This sugar is expensive.

Aunt Lei is very precious to this grandson.

"yes, I'm looking for oranges." Shen Tong smiled.

Bao Ge'er guessed correctly, grinned proudly, but did not stop, and ran quickly out of the alley.

When Shen Tong returned home, Mrs. Jiang and Mrs. Xin were not there, so she asked Huang: "Sister went shopping with Mrs. Jiang again?" ”

"The embroidery thread is incomplete, Mrs. Jiang doesn't understand this, so I asked Ah Yu to match." Thinking that the embroidery thread is incomplete, today Huang is not a female celebrity, she is grinding mung beans with a small stone mill.

Shen Tong hurriedly went over and said to the Huang family: "Let Mrs. Jiang do this kind of hard work in the future, you go to the house to rest, and I will grind." ”

Huang didn't let go, and said with a smile: "This one is not tired, you are clumsy, I don't worry, if you don't grind it fine enough, the mung bean cake made will not be delicious." ”

Shen Tong saw that Huang's eyes were dark, so he asked, "A-Niang didn't sleep well?" Is there a mosquito in the house, and the mosquito coil you got back last time has run out? ”

Every summer, Baihuitang will make some mosquito coils to sell, and the effect is very good.

"Yes, there was a mosquito in the tent last night, and I couldn't catch it, so I didn't sleep well." Huang said with a smile.

"Well, I'll go to the shop now and bring back mosquito coils at night." Shen Tong said and prepared to go out,

But as soon as she took a few steps, she was stopped by Huang.

"Tongtong, you wait."

Shen Tong turned around and asked, "A-Niang, what's wrong?" ”

Huang hesitated for a moment, came out of the stove, met Shen Tong's crystal eyes, and asked, "Are you learning the Tao?" ”

"Learning?" Shen Tong was stunned, then shook his head with a smile, "No, I can't finish the homework assigned by Mr. Chi, how can I have the heart to learn that, besides, I don't want to become an immortal, what should I do to learn the Tao?" ”

"It's good if you don't learn, A-Niang heard that a little girl read a few Taoist books, so she clamored to go to the Taoist temple to practice, A-Niang doesn't want you to be like them." Huang breathed a sigh of relief, but his expression was still solemn, it seemed that he was really worried, although the people were afraid of ghosts and gods, and burned incense and worshiped Buddha on weekdays, but they were reluctant to let their children go to the house.

Shen Tong hurriedly comforted her and said, "Don't worry, A-Niang, the cultivation is very hard, I have no meat and no joy, but I can't stand that kind of suffering." ”

When Shen Tong's heart sank when she said the words "no meat, no joy", but the smile on her face did not fade.

"It's good if you don't, Tongtong, A-Niang only has one biological daughter of you, I don't want you to have the slightest mistake, after going through those things in the past few years, A-Niang just wants to live a peaceful and stable life with you, and in a few years, I will tell you about good family affairs, and watch you marry happily, A-Niang can also rest assured to see your father."

When Huang said this, there were already tears in his eyes.

Shen Tong was startled, and hurriedly walked over to support her: "A-Niang, I will listen to you, I will definitely not go to learn the Tao, don't worry." ”

Huang patted her hand and said in a sad voice: "Tongtong, Uncle Xu, they have the grace to help our mother and daughter, but A-Niang also saw that they are not ordinary people, and you are gradually growing up. ”

Shen Tong's brows moved, but she didn't argue with the Huang family, and said comfortingly: "Okay, I remember, A-Niang, you don't have to worry about me, I'm only twelve, and it's still early to say goodbye." ”

Saying that, she winked mischievously at Huang, and there were tears in Huang's eyes, but she was still amused by her and laughed: "You kid, you just talk nicely, and you don't know where to play in a blink of an eye, you are a skin monkey when you look old at the age of three." ”

Shen Tong grinned, coaxed the Huang family a few more words, and then left the house.

When he came out of the house, the smile on Shen Tong's face was gone.

She walked quickly to the Xu family next door, called Fangfei and Xiaomei, and went to the shop together.

Along the way, Shen Tong was thinking about his thoughts, but Fang Fei and Xiaomei were like two little birds chattering non-stop.

Suddenly, Shen Tong asked, "Does Aunt Lei's little grandson often come to our house to play?" ”

"How so? Brother Bao was about to chase after the orange when he saw it, and when he was caught by the orange, he cried and annoyed people, so I didn't let him come to our house", speaking of this, Fang Fei remembered something and said, "Miss, did he run to our alley to chase oranges again?" I saw him in the alley that day, and when he met, he asked me why the orange was not at home, and he must have looked at it through the crack in our door. ”

Fang Fei is going to roll up her sleeves when she says this, that hateful stinky child, the next time she sees him chasing oranges, she will beat him to cry and call his mother.

Shen Tong shook his head: "I just saw him at the door of Xu's house, and he thought I came to Xu's house to look for oranges." ”

"You see, I don't even know that the orange is not at home, he knows better than me, he is not staring at the orange all day or something, if the orange is lost one day, it must have been stolen by him." The more Fang Fei talked, the more angry she became, and she wanted to beat someone again, if she beat Brother Bao one day, it couldn't be regarded as bullying a child.

"You don't know that the oranges are not at home, because you are not at home either, since Brother Bao is staring at the oranges all day long, if he comes to our house, is the first thing he will do to find the oranges?" Shen Tong asked.

"Hey, yes, he'll definitely look for oranges when he comes to our house...... Miss, do you mean he went to our house? What is he doing at our house? Fang Fei couldn't figure it out.

"You said you saw him in the alley too, when did you remember?" Shen Tong asked again.

"When...... That day, he was still holding that big piece of sesame candy in his hand, which was the kind of sesame candy from Daoxiangyuan. Fang Fei remembered Sesame Candy, but she couldn't remember when she saw Bao Ge'er.

"I remember, I remember", the little sister who had never spoken interjected, "It was the day when Aunt Jiang and the eldest girl went out, Sister Fang Fei lied to the eldest girl that she was buying wontons for Mr. Chi, but she didn't even have a food box in her hand, and the eldest girl didn't believe it for a while." ”

Shen Tong narrowed his eyes slightly: "Are you saying that Mrs. Jiang and Xinyu were not at home that day, and they went out?" ”

This time Fang Fei finally remembered, she said: "Yes, yes, yes, the slave maid and the little sister went out that day, they wanted to see if the Yiqing Daoist was not there, but they didn't see the Yiqing Daoist, but they saw Jiang Pozi and the eldest girl going out, they went to the vegetable market to buy vegetables, the slave maid still felt strange, the eldest girl loved clean people so much, why did she go to buy vegetables." ”
