Years ago, firecrackers rang out one after another on the streets of the community.

Generally, fireworks and firecrackers are prohibited in most cities, but this is in the suburbs of the city, and the management is not very strict, and people are too lazy to care about these trivial matters after the New Year.

Dai Xing was stepping on a small firecracker with her feet, and Ms. Ou suddenly greeted her behind her.

"Dai Xing, what are you doing there, why don't you come over and help grandma. Your grandmother is old, her waist and legs are not good, and she can't climb the ladder, so you can hang this little lantern. ”

Dai Xing stretched out his hand to take it, and stared at Ms. Ou, "How can I hang it, I can still fly into the sky." ”

"Isn't there a ladder!"

Ms. Ou kindly moved the folding ladder in front of the eaves and straightened it.

It seems that my grandmother wanted to hang red lanterns on the outside of each floor to make the whole house look more lively at night at night. Seeing that the lantern had been glued to the eaves, Dai Xing had no choice but to climb up the ladder to the south side of the villa, ready to hang the remaining half.

Ms. Ou was holding on to the ladder below, not very worried.

"Mom, why is this so troublesome, there are wires connected to the wick or something, I can't understand it."

Dai Xing looked at the top of the lantern, there was a small piece of metal, which was supposed to be used to induce electricity.

It was so small that she tilted her head and looked at it for a long time, almost twisting her neck.

"Mom, can you help me get the tape and scissors, I'm ...... now" Dai Xing spread his hands down.

Ms. Ou was in a dilemma, holding the ladder with both hands and not leaving, "What should you do if you fall down when I leave?" ”

"Then I'll come down first?"

Dai Xing had already climbed down a ladder.

At this time, an old voice came from overhead, not big or small, as if it was at a very close distance.

"Little girl, I've got scissors and duct tape."

Dai Xing was stunned, grabbed the ladder and climbed up, turned over and sat on the balcony railing on the second floor.

The next room was next to each other, separated by only one wall.

She saw a neat flower stand on the balcony opposite, and even a row of railings hung upside down.

And the old lady with gorgeous hair was carrying a watering can to water the flowers leisurely.

When Ms. Ou raised her eyes, she saw that the child was sitting directly on the railing, and she almost didn't lose her breath. Ban Yan pointed to the top and roared, "Dai Xing, why do you like to pursue excitement so much all day long??" ”

Dai Xingquan didn't hear it, and slowly moved to the place against the wall, looking at the scenery next door.

"Are you Grandma Li?"

"It seems that your grandmother has not mentioned me much." The old man said as he handed her the tape and scissors.

Dai Xing nodded and shook his legs. "Yes, she loves the flowers you planted, and the house is full. If I have the chance, I would also like to visit that flower garden. ”

"Absolutely." The old man smiled kindly, he was over seventy years old, and his bones were still alive.

Probably after watering the flowers, the old lady put away the kettle and shovel, and wanted to turn around and go back to the house. "Little girl, if you don't mind, I'll wait for my two grandchildren to come back and let them take you there, and by the way, pick a few ripe cucumbers and use them to mix dumpling stuffing at night."

"Hey, thank you so much."

Dai Xing was a little surprised, the old man was unexpectedly easy to speak.

After an afternoon of tossing and turning, she had already connected all the lanterns on the south side.

When I sat on the railing of the balcony again, the sun had gone to the western horizon, staining half the sky red.

The light grazed the cracks in the wall tiles and scattered wantonly.

Dai Xing withdrew his gaze, glanced down at the soles of his feet, and saw an unusually familiar car passing by the road in front of him.

Then slowly stopped at the door of the courtyard next door.
