Chapter 20 Meet the Parents
Xiao Dong asked me to go to her sister's house for dinner, and in the past two days, I was doing a questionnaire survey before the summer vacation, running all over the city. It may be that Xiao Dong felt sorry for me and asked me to go to her sister's house to eat beef at noon. Xiao Dong said that her grandmother's beef cakes were delicious.
"Hey, Xiao Dong." I called her.
"Well, where are you? What time do you come over at noon? I'll pick you up downstairs. ”
"I don't know yet, I'll call you then, and you tell me how to get to your sister's house."
"You find bus No. 14, sit at Huaneng Hotel, and then go north to a crossroads, go west, there is a vegetable market there, and I will wait for you at the door of the vegetable market at that time."
"Okay, but are there really only two people in the family, your grandma and Niuniu?"
"Yes, my sister and brother-in-law don't come back for dinner at noon, so you can come."
"Then your grandmother won't say anything, will she? I'm a little embarrassed, don't be in a hurry and get confused. "I'm a little worried, should I go? Or not going?
"You don't want to be with a girl, can you? It seems to call you what's wrong Yes, my grandma won't eat you again, she's very kind. Hurry up, call me when it's time and I'll pick you up." Xiao Dong hung up the phone when he finished speaking.
I thought it would be a bit reckless to go to her sister's house like this, so I hesitated for a long time and decided to go. When I sat on the No. 14 bus, I suddenly felt very hot, I always felt weird, and I was still a little uneasy. "Hongmen Banquet? Why is Xiao Dong so blind, what is the picture of me, where and where is it. ”
"Niuniu, this is Uncle Xiaofu." When Xiao Dong was waiting for me at the gate of the vegetable market, he also brought a 5 or 6-year-old child, with big eyes and bright eyes, and two small braids on his head, lively and cute.
"Uncle Xiaofu is good." Niuniu's voice is very sweet, which reminds me of my childhood and envy the carefree feeling of being at ease. "You're Niu Niu, aren't you? Your aunt often tells me about you, look at what a beautiful little girl. I stepped forward to talk to Niuniu, and looked at Xiao Dong from time to time, and deliberately accentuated the latter sentence.
"You've got it, look at your fascinated look, it's obviously a child, what kind of little girl, what kind of ghost do you want?" Xiao Dong also teased that nothing seemed to escape her eyes.
"Look what you say, I can! What do you think of me, isn't this slandering my image in Niuniu's heart? Let's go, Niuniu, let's go buy some fruit, what do you want to eat? After saying that, Xiao Dong and I had a good time, so I pulled Niuniu to the fruit stall in the vegetable market. In fact, Xiao Dong also understands that I don't know what the joke I made with her Niu Niu didn't know what it meant.
"It's good if you buy a few apples, I'll go buy some rice, green onion cakes, okay?" Niuniu, you should follow well, don't run around. ”
"Okay, anything, is there no food at home? Let's go buy it together, shall we? ”
Xiao Dong's sister and brother-in-law are both criminal policemen, they don't go home much on weekdays, Niuniu is taken by her grandmother most of the time, and her sister enrolled Niuniu in a piano class after class, bought a piano, and asked Niuniu to practice piano if she has nothing to do. Xiao Dong's sister lives on the third floor, and when I went back, Xiao Dong forgot to bring the key, so I walked in front and pressed the door.
The one who opened the door was a middle-aged woman, with a serious face, although she was smiling, but her eyebrows still showed such majesty.
"Well, Auntie is good." When I saw this woman, I panicked, didn't I go to the wrong door? Didn't you say that only grandma was at home? What's going on? I muttered in my heart.
"Mom, we're back. Uncle Xiaofu fast forward, fast forward. After Niuniu finished talking to her mother, she pulled me and ran into the house, there was no strange feeling at all, children are always cute, I didn't expect to be able to mingle with Niuniu in such a short period of time, but my brain was more wooden this time, as soon as I entered the door, I called Niuniu's mother, Xiao Dong's sister, Auntie, this time it's too rude, it's definitely over. What should I do? "Niuniu, uncle go to the bathroom, I'll play with you later." After saying this, I looked at Xiao Dong, blushed and went into the bathroom.
"Niu Niu, have you practiced piano today? Did you play for another day? Go play a song for me! Xiao Dong's sister said to Niuniu very harshly. Listening to that tone, I knew at a glance that my sister was unhappy.
Xiao Dong was also busy in the bathroom, "What's the matter with you?" If you open your mouth, it's an aunt, is my sister that old? What the hell are you thinking in your head? Raise goldfish! I'll see what you do in a moment. Xiao Dong looked at me helplessly and sighed and said, "You can behave well after dinner, you can say something, don't be like you have never seen the world, say more nice things." ”
"I knew that your sister was at home, and I was stunned when I opened the door, where did she look like a grandmother, and you didn't tell me beforehand. If you tell me, I won't be able to do it, and if you tell me your sister is at home, I won't bother you. "I looked innocent.
"Hehe, then you're already here, I forgot to tell you, my brother-in-law is also at home, you can behave well." Xiao Dong smiled evilly and quickly left the bathroom to watch TV.
I'm a little excited, what can I do? said that only grandma's and Niuniu were at home, and now the family is all together, how embarrassing. The scalp is a little numb, so let's put it on. Coming out of the bathroom, I said hello to my grandmother and brother-in-law respectively, my sister in the east room was teaching Niuniu, I didn't dare to go in, I guess I was not satisfied with Niuniu's playing, or because I said that auntie just now, my heart trembled.
"Come to Xiaofu, sit here, what do you drink? Beer bar. To give. "My brother-in-law spoke very politely and kindly, and he had been busy in the kitchen just now.
"Brother-in-law, don't be so polite, I'll just drink one, I don't have much alcohol." I thought about the standard of a good man in the family, and I couldn't help but smile in my heart. "Xiao Dong, go and call grandma and sister to have dinner together."
"Okay, don't do it, just do this and wait, and I'll bring a dish." My brother-in-law looked at me helping to set up the chair and said.
"Everyone's here, let's get started. Come to Xiaofu, I'll have a drink with you first, and welcome you to our house as a guest. The brother-in-law raised his glass and said.
"Brother-in-law, you are too polite, you have made so many dishes, and you have caused trouble." With that, I drained the wine from the glass.
"Sister, I'm really sorry just now, I'm very busy at work, right? I'm giving you a glass and I'm sorry for your trouble. I held the cup in both hands and said sincerely to my sister.
"It's nothing, it's good if you don't see outside, it's all your own people, eat more food and drink less. Try this beef I made. "My sister used to speak very gently, but looking at what she did just now, it may be inseparable from being a policeman, and after a long time, she has invisibly formed that strict habit.
"Okay, I'll do it myself. Don't bother. With that, I drained the glass again. But I thought to myself, didn't Xiao Dong say that this dish was made by grandma? How did this come to be done by my sister?
"Come, eat more, I'll add to you when I'm done in a while." Xiao Dong's sister said enthusiastically and put some food in the bowl for me.
Lunch will be over in a while, my brother-in-law asked me about my family situation, and the others didn't ask too much, maybe I had to go to work in the afternoon, and after eating, I was pulled by Niuniu to the living room to paint.
I always like to watch children's drawings, the strokes and lines are very simple, but from this simple line, you can feel the unique innocence of déjà vu, and you can feel the endless fantasy and curiosity about this huge world contained in their little heads. Niuniu is a lively child, although she is an only child, but she does not have the willfulness of a child from an only family, which may have something to do with being born in such a family. Parents can't spoil their children.
Niuniu's paintings are very beautiful, the colors are very gorgeous, and the paintings are full of imagination. I held Niuniu's paintings, remembered my previous hobbies, and couldn't help but pick up Niuniu's crayons.
"Niuniu send Uncle a painting, you draw one for Uncle, Uncle will draw one for you, how about we exchange?" I took those art books and looked at them and said to Niu Niu.
