Perhaps, from the moment Zhang Jing fell ill, Aunt Qin knew that it was inevitable to stay. It's just that a few days ago, Aunt Qin's face was filled with the lightness brought by Zhang Jing's departure, she is now like some kind of long-lived grass that is covered in glass, and it is like a plant that only needs an air medium to grow that became popular later, no need to fertilize, no waxing, no need to raise carefully, it can heal itself if it is injured, it can be self-sufficient due to lack of water, she is very tenacious, and this is completely the impression that Aunt Qin left on her father and even the Cao family.

In fact, not all strength is innate, perhaps, it is the intuitive reflection of a life's belief in survival, but it is often labeled as it is and taken for granted.

The crabs sent by the driver sent by the uncle have arrived, and the seafood in that season is particularly fatty, but the atmosphere of the whole family is completely devoid of the point that can be ignited, and it is lifeless, and it feels like it is tiring to say a word.

"Madam, is this crab steamed or braised in a braised crab? I see that there are some fresh shrimp in the young master's delivery, which are not small. After Wu's mother looked at the things sent, she came to ask her grandmother.

Grandma wore reading glasses and raised her head: "Just boil the shrimp and give it to Chenchen." Crabs, I'll steam them when I see them. I'm afraid that some people won't eat it, after all, the weather is also hot, so it's always right to eat something light. After Grandma finished speaking, she put her hand on her glasses and continued to look down at the newspaper.

"Madam, today's dish is bland, and only one fish is braised in the mouth. When Cao Ge comes back, I'm afraid, she will say that this dish is too clear. Wu's mother stood in place and didn't move her position, and after listening to these words, I also knew her entanglement.

"Oh, grandma, you still let the crab be boiled, but don't really like what Wu's mother said, it's not right to come back. Before, it's not that I haven't picked it. Cao Cancan echoed on the side.

"Then let's braise it. You can do whatever you see fit. I'm going upstairs to get some medicine. With that, he went upstairs.

Cao Cancan made a color to Wu's mother, Wu's mother nodded, and then ordered the kitchen to be boiled after cleaning.

"Mom! Didn't my sister-in-law say that she was not allowed to put pears on the table? She said she had a headache when she saw a pear. Mother! Tell someone to put all the pears up. Cao Cancan suddenly sat on the sofa and pointed to the fruit plate on the coffee table and shouted. The content that came out of her mouth made me think it was funny, the president of this country was here, there was no need to be so comprehensive, besides, what theory? Seeing a pear with a headache?

Aunt Qin walked over from the dining cabinet, looked at the fruit bowl, and beckoned Mama Liu to hide all the pears or things that were the same as the pear sound.

Mother Liu held three pears in her hand and asked Aunt Qin in embarrassment: "Young grandma, where do you put these pears?" If you put it in the refrigerator, the young lady of this family can still see it, it's so hot, there's no place to put it? ”

Aunt Qin looked around and pointed to the pear: "You can take it and eat it." ”

"Isn't it okay? Young grandma, this? Mother Liu said embarrassedly. Oops, nothing bad. At this juncture, the most important thing is to appease my sister-in-law, and nothing else matters. Cao Cancan's loud voice was beside me, shaking my head. Aunt Qin nodded.

"Eh, Mom, what should Cao Muxi do?" Cao Cancan suddenly pointed at me, startling me. Aunt Qin looked back and looked stunned: "What should I do?" ”

Cao Cancan lifted one leg onto the sofa, turned his whole body to the back, and said to Aunt Qin: "No, Mom, if my sister-in-law asks, how can this person come out, how can you say it?" You can't say that you picked it up on the street, or that the wind blew it! My sister-in-law can't believe it either! ”

I looked at Aunt Qin in surprise, and after Aunt Qin and I looked at each other, she looked away, turned to Cao Cancan and said, "Don't talk nonsense. What a strong wind is blowing. Let's be honest, your grandmother's distant relatives came to Nanjing to study and live for a while. ”

"Mom! Don't you be afraid that my sister-in-law will say when the time comes, ah, your daughter will rush out and let an outsider live casually! Before Cao Cancan finished speaking, grandma came down from upstairs. Who drove her? She couldn't stay in this house by herself. Grandma's words clearly revealed unhappiness.

Aunt Qin hurriedly played a round: "Cancan, don't talk nonsense." Mother, don't listen to Cancan's nonsense, she is young, she is not sensible, and she doesn't understand what is going on. Don't be angry. ”

"I'm not angry. What's there to be angry about? I should have been angry for a long time. When Cao Ge came back, if he asked about Cao Muxi, just tell the truth. There's nothing to hide, I didn't do anything wrong, she also cares if I do good deeds? ”

"Uh-huh, I know my mother. Cancan, do you hear me? "Uh-huh, I hear you." Cao Cancan stuck out his tongue and turned back.

Around three o'clock in the afternoon, my father drove back. After entering the house, I hurried upstairs.

"Cao Mu, your sister is coming back, are you going upstairs to sleep?" Grandma's voice was more serious.

"Ah, no, I'll go upstairs and get something." The father explained.

"Then hurry up, your sister will arrive in a while, and the meal will be opened when everyone is ready." Grandma said coldly without moving.

Father replied softly.

Within twenty minutes, the uncle's car drove into the yard. When Wu's mother saw it, she hurriedly washed her hands and went out to greet her. Aunt Qin also went to the door, and I sat on the sofa woodenly, and there was no reaction at that time, and grandma.

I craned my neck to look out the window, only to see that after the uncle got out of the car, he went around to the left side of the back of the car and opened the door very gentlemanly. Immediately, a lady got out of the car, wearing a big-brimmed hat and a dress, very foreign colors. In that era, when the women of large families basically wore cheongsam, Zhang Jing and Cao Ge's dress was not in the mainstream, but it was very fashionable. Compared with Zhang Jing, Cao Ge's large floral pattern is particularly eye-catching and bold under the 1994 sky in Nanjing! To describe it as enchanting is by no means excessive.

This woman is very tall, with a round face, and she is also very good-looking, but unlike Zhang Jing's intellectual beauty, this kind of beauty always makes people feel ungrounded.

"Ah oil, second sister-in-law, why are you old! Tsk, look at it, how did you do it, the face is yellow and thin. Is my brother bullying you again? "This Cao Ge's voice is as good as Cao Cancan's, and the volume is very loud, so big that I can hear it clearly in the room from a long distance.

I don't know what Aunt Qin said, but after Cao Ge went up a few steps, he took Aunt Qin's arm and entered the hall.

"Who cooked this rice, it's so fragrant! Hi! Cancan! Auntie misses you so much, you've grown taller, come on, do you miss your aunt? ”

Cao Cancan instantly narrowed his eyes, with a disobedient expression: "Of course, I thought about it!" ”

"Gee, I'm guessing, you're going to miss me. Come, aunt kiss it. After speaking, he kissed Cao Cancan on the forehead. I saw Cao Cancan behind Cao Ge, smiling and not smiling, his expression was very embarrassed, and he wanted to raise his hand to wipe it, but he felt bad, so he bared his teeth like that.

Immediately, Cao Ge came to the sofa in a circle.

"Oh? Whose girl is this? Is it okay for a friend's family to come and play? It's pretty long. "Cao Ge obviously asked me. As soon as she looked at me, I nervous and got up from the couch.

"Ah You, don't, don't, make this nervous, sit down. It's quite polite. Cao Ge said while picking up the hooked flower net needle sleeve on his hand. Aunt Qin suddenly came up behind her and explained: "Ah, this is a relative of my mother's hometown, who has come to Nanjing and lived in our house for a while." ”

"Relatives back home? What kind of relatives are you back home? How did I not know? Come to Nanjing, what are you doing in Nanjing? Which room does she sleep in? My room? So where do I sleep? ”

Cao Cancan hurriedly ran over to Cao Ge and said, "No, no, sister-in-law, we don't dare to move your house, so we'll keep it for you." She lives in guest rooms, in guest rooms. ”

"Oh, what are you doing in Nanjing?"

"She, she goes to school, we are in one school."

"I didn't ask you, I asked her, let her say it herself."

When Cao Ge looked at me, my face turned red. Even I don't know why I'm blushing, it's so red that I have a fever.

I swallowed: "I, I'm going to school." Cao Cancan and I, one, one school. ”

"Ah You, stutter! Oops, at a young age, she looks quite beautiful, why do you still stutter? Wasted, wasted. Gee. ”

"I don't stutter. I just, a little nervous. "I don't know how I got that.

"Nervous? What are you nervous about? I don't eat people, and I don't drive you away, what are you nervous about? It's funny to death, really, the first time I've heard that someone is so nervous when they see me, it's still a little hairy child? Say it, don't laugh to death. I don't know, I still think that I, Cao Ge, can't be the same. "When Cao Ge spoke, I once wondered if this woman graduated from the drama academy? How the facial features match the intonation and emotions just right, it is simply a model for stage performances.

Grandma sat next to her and suddenly coughed.

"Oh, Mom, I haven't seen you here yet. I see that you look very good, think about it, the family has been calm recently, right? Haha, I know that I'm not here, and you're naturally in a good mood, so you don't need to ask. Cao Ge's words didn't look like greeting his grandmother at all, but like a war, with thorns in his words.

Grandma put away the newspaper and took off her glasses: "What's the matter, I went to Yunnan, and I don't know my own mother anymore?" I'm such a big living person, don't you see? Hum! Eighty percent, it's deliberately invisible! After Grandma finished speaking, she leaned back.

"Yo! Mom, what you said, how can a daughter deliberately not see her mother! In this world, there are only unpopular daughters, where is the unpopular mother! ”

Cao Qi pushed Cao Ge hard behind him, Cao Ge glanced back, shrugged his shoulders, and didn't speak again.

"I said Cao Ge, if you come back to be angry with me, then please go back. I'm an old bone, and I can't stand you for a few rounds. ”

"Mom, you're in the ring, and you're still round. Haha, as soon as I came back, you kicked me out, so that these old neighbors on the left and right saw it, and I don't know how much gossip you have to say. ”
