Chapter 268: The dumplings that children love to eat
Lin Xiu took Yang Wenhao to the opposite store and bought two buckets of instant noodles to eat.
Don't look at the instant noodles have no nutritional value, the taste is still good, at least Lin Xiu can see that Yang Wenhao really likes to eat this thing.
"I'll be gone in a moment." Eating instant noodles, Yang Wenhao greeted Lin Xiu.
"Huh? In such a hurry? Lin Xiu said: "Play for a few more days." ”
"Fuck off, you go home for the New Year, I won't go home for the New Year." Yang Wenhao scolded with a smile: "Remember, I'll be back when I'm about to come back, and I'll arrange a new errand for you." ”
"What errand?" Lin Xiu asked curiously.
"Capture the team, do you still want to guard the forbidden land?" Yang Wenhao glanced at Lin Xiu.
Lin Xiu nodded: "It's good to guard the forbidden place, you just change places for me." ”
Seriously, if it weren't for the fact that the environment of the Desert Demon Land was too bad, Lin Xiu really didn't want to leave.
"Let you continue to guard the forbidden land, isn't that a condescending talent, okay, this matter is settled." Yang Wenhao waved his hand, stood up and left.
"Anyway, thank you." Lin Xiu shouted loudly.
Yang Wenhao waved his hand behind him and did not speak.
One morning, Lin Xiu stayed in the orphanage to clean, after all, it was the Chinese New Year, and Lin Xiu didn't want to spend it in an overgrown environment.
In the alleys outside, firecrackers were set off, and groups of children were running around happily.
Couplets were posted in every house.
Lin Xiu in the orphanage seemed a little lonely.
"In a blink of an eye, it's the sixth year." Lin Xiu glanced at the children and sighed.
Walking to the street outside, buying some incense, candles, money paper, Lin Xiu took a taxi to Binhai City Cemetery.
The cemetery has not changed much, if anything, it is just a few new graves.
Walking on the way to the cemetery, Lin Xiu couldn't help but think of the first time he met Ni Xiaotong when he came back.
Thinking of this, the corners of Lin Xiu's mouth couldn't help but feel a little bitter, and he originally wanted to gather all those partners together for the New Year after coming back.
As a result, until now, he is alone.
With a wry smile, he put the incense candle money paper on the ground, but Lin Xiu found that there was a pile of burned paper money in front of the tomb.
And incense candles and so on.
Lin Xiu was stunned, besides himself, who else came back to see his mother? Could it be Zeng Jinjie's kid? It should be him, after all, people are on the coast, and it is not far away.
Without thinking too much, Lin Xiu directly lit the incense candle money paper.
"Mom, this year, only I came to see you, and next year, I will definitely bring Chen Jianyu, Xiaotong, Wang Yang, and Li Hanqiu back to worship you together." Lin Xiu said while burning the paper money.
"Eh, Lin Xiu, you're back."
Lin Xiu heard the greeting, looked back, and saw Zeng Jinjie walking over with incense, candles, money and paper in his hand.
Lin Xiu suddenly smiled, this guy really can't say it, as soon as he says it, he will come.
"Well, it wasn't long after I came back." Lin Xiu replied.
But immediately, Lin Xiu realized that something was wrong, Zeng Jinjie, it was impossible to come to worship twice, right?
Who was here before?
However, Zeng Jinjie didn't know Lin Xiu's doubts, walked over and put the incense, candles, money and paper on the table, knelt on the ground and kowtowed a few times: "Mother Dean, bless my business, everything goes well!" ”
Lin Xiu temporarily suppressed the doubts in his mind and said to Zeng Jinjie, "What business are you doing now?" ”
"I borrowed some money with a brother and wanted to buy a piece of land for real estate." Zeng Jinjie said with a smile: "I really want to thank you, if it wasn't for you, I'm afraid I would have been able to nest in the slum now." ”
Engaged in real estate?
Lin Xiu smiled and didn't ask any more, young people now like to brag, and Lin Xiu didn't want to expose Zeng Jinjie, so as not to embarrass the two.
"By the way, Lin Xiu, do you have a place to live?" Zeng Jinjie asked, "Where else would you go to me?" ”
"I renovated the orphanage and wanted to spend the New Year there." Lin Xiu replied.
Hearing this, Zeng Jinjie also showed a look of memory on his face. 、
"Well, I'll come over tonight to celebrate New Year's Eve with you, and I'll bring some good wine when the time comes." Zeng Jinjie looked at his watch: "I still have some things, so I'll leave first." ”
"Go ahead, I'll get you something delicious in the evening." Lin Xiu waved his hand and said.
Zeng Jinjie nodded and left in a hurry.
Lin Xiu sighed and walked down the hill in thought.
At the entrance of the cemetery, the old man who guards the tomb sits on a rocking chair, looking leisurely.
Lin Xiu thought for a while and walked over: "Uncle, has anyone come to worship that tomb on the mountain before?" ”
"Huh? What do you say? The old man looked a little deaf, but asked Lin Xiu loudly.
Lin Xiu patiently pointed to his mother's tomb and said, "That tomb, has anyone been here before?" ”
"I don't understand what you're saying." The old man shook his head.
Lin Xiu frowned, tried to take out a hundred-yuan bill from his bag and handed it over: "Can you understand it now?" ”
"Hehe, for the New Year, earn some living expenses, don't mind young man." When the old man saw the money, he immediately smiled: "Two days ago, last night, two people came, because it was the middle of the night, so I was very impressed." ”
"Who?" Lin Xiu didn't care about money, but he cared more about who came to worship his mother.
"A girl, she looks seventeen or eighteen years old, quite well-behaved, and an old man, next to her."
"Well-behaved girl, is it, little boy?" Lin Xiu was stunned for a moment, and the more he thought about it, the more sure he was that the conjecture in his heart was definitely right.
Ignoring the old man anymore, Lin Xiu ran directly outside the cemetery and took a taxi to the city center.
At Grandpa Sun's house, at this time, the old couple was wrapping dumplings at home, watching TV, and there was a big blessing word at the door.
Lin Xiu hurriedly ran out of the elevator: "Grandpa Sun! Kid, is the kid there? ”
Grandpa Sun and Grandma looked at each other.
"Little boy, didn't you say I wanted to celebrate the New Year with you? I just left this morning. Grandpa Sun asked rhetorically.
Lin Xiu took a deep breath, and suddenly knew in his heart that he was late.
Grandma Sun was attentive and asked, "What's wrong?" Is something wrong? ”
Lin Xiu shook his head: "No, it's nothing, I guess she went shopping, and she didn't know to call me, I thought she was still here with you." ”
Grandpa Sun said: "Young man, you have to calm down, don't panic about everything." ”
Lin Xiu smiled bitterly, but it was impossible to say to the two old men that the child was gone.
"Got it, Grandpa Sun, I wish you a happy new year, I'll go first." Lin Xiudao.
"Wait a minute." Grandma Sun screamed, and after speaking, she put dozens of dumplings in a pocket and gave them to Lin Xiu: "The little boy loves to eat the dumplings I wrapped, you can bring some back for her to eat." ”
