Chapter 545: All kinds of neighbors
The strongest, the fastest update of the latest chapter of the seventies Xiao Xing!
"Aunt Chen, keep yours for the family to eat, I still have it, Aunt Sun, this is the jujube cake I made myself, you can taste it." Xie Xiaonian saw that Aunt Chen said so, so she didn't insist anymore, took out a piece of jujube cake from the basket, handed it over and said.
"You did it, it looks good." Sun Hong stretched out her hand to take the jujube cake handed over by Xie Xiaonian and said.
At this time, the expression on her face was slightly softened, with a hint of a smile.
"I haven't gone to the east yet, so I won't stay here longer, I'll go first." Xie Xiaonian saw that the atmosphere was not as good as it was just now, so he was ready to leave.
"The date cakes in your basket are for the neighbors, these families don't come back for dinner at noon, you give me the basket, and I'll help you distribute it to them at night."
After Sun Hong's eyes rolled a few times, he said with a look that I was tired of helping, and you don't need to thank him.
"Let's let Xiao Nian come over again in the evening, after all, she just moved over, it's better to send it in person, and Xiao Nian also has to know someone." Aunt Chen was afraid that Xiao Nian would not know the situation, so she agreed to Sun Hong, so she hurriedly said.
What kind of person Sun Hong is, they have lived in the same courtyard for so many years, it is very clear, if this basket is given to her, then there will be no return.
But even if Aunt Chen doesn't speak, Xiao Nian won't give things to this Sun Hong.
Everyone is meeting for the first time, and she doesn't believe in Sun Hong's character.
It wasn't worth much, but if it wasn't, she wouldn't be able to get to know the rest of her neighbors.
But she was still very grateful for Aunt Chen's reminder, so she smiled at Aunt Chen.
"People haven't spoken yet, what do you interject, you have a lot to do." Sun Hong replied dissatisfied.
"Aunt Chen is just making a suggestion, how to decide, or I have the final say, but the main purpose of my visit to the neighbors is to get to know the next person, I better come in person at night, so I won't trouble Aunt Sun." Xie Xiaonian answered directly.
"I don't want to forget it, so I can save trouble, and when I get it, I lose less things, and it depends on my head. The meal at home hasn't been cooked yet, so I'll go back to cook. After Sun Hong pouted, she took the jujube cake and went straight back to the backyard.
"She's like that all the time, you don't have to deal with her." After Sun Hong left, Aunt Chen said to Xie Xiaonian.
"It's okay, Aunt Chen, I'll go back first." Xie Xiaonian said with a smile.
"Okay, then I won't keep you, remember to come home to play when you have time." Aunt Chen said kindly.
After coming out of the courtyard in the west, Xie Xiaonian went to the neighbor's house in the east.
"Who are you? Who are you looking for? Why haven't I seen you? Xie Xiaonian had just arrived at the door with the basket, and a woman sitting at the door eating melon seeds said precautionarily.
"Hello, I'm Xie Xiaonian, a neighbor who just moved in to the west, everyone will be neighbors in the future, please take care of me, I'm here to recognize the door, this is the pastry I made, you can taste it." Xie Xiaonian saw her defensiveness, so he said with a smile.
"Oh, you are a new neighbor, I am Cheng Ximei, the eldest daughter-in-law of the Lao Tian family in this yard, you can call me Sister Meizi, go, go into the yard and sit." Cheng Ximei took the jujube cake handed over by Xie Xiaonian and said enthusiastically.
"Sister-in-law, who is this?" As soon as Xie Xiaonian followed Cheng Ximei into the courtyard, a woman who was playing with her child in the courtyard asked.
"She's a neighbor who just moved in, and she's here to visit her. Xiao Nian, this is my second brother and sister Chun Tao. Chun Tao, you continue to play with the children, Xiao Nian and I will accompany you. ”
Cheng Ximei hid the jujube cake in her hand behind her back, and after introducing it to both parties, she was ready to lead Xie Xiaonian back to her house.
"Auntie, what are you holding in your hand? I want to eat. The little boy who was playing in the yard ran forward in three steps and two steps, and said greedily.
The other two children also stood in place, staring straight at what was in Cheng Ximei's hand.
"Nothing, go and go, go back to the house and play." Cheng Ximei said hurriedly.
"Sister-in-law, he just wants to eat what you are holding in your hand, if you don't want to give it, forget it, why are you still driving people, the yard is shared by everyone, not your own." Chun Tao saw that her sister-in-law was chasing her child, so she said to protect the calf.
"Where did I drive him, I just let him go and play, there are guests here, his mouth is still so greedy, and he is not afraid of people's jokes." Cheng Ximei said dissatisfied.
"The child's family is ignorant, what is there to laugh at, when your child is greedy, I didn't see you say that!" Chun Tao couldn't bear to argue.
"My child is very sensible, and he won't be like Huzi who can't look at his eyes!" Cheng Ximei pouted and said.
Xie Xiaonian saw that the two were about to quarrel, so he hurriedly said, "I still have it, Sister Chuntao, you can share this piece with a few children." ”
"Oh, thank you so much, the kid is not sensible, and he made you laugh. I knew that you brought this thing, so I asked you directly, which saved the child from being so greedy and couldn't eat it, and it caused me to quarrel with my sister-in-law. Chun Tao complained with a smile.
And what she meant was as if she was blaming Xie Xiaonian for not taking things out earlier.
For such a person, Xie Xiaonian has seen a lot, and knows that such a person has no reason to talk about, so he didn't answer anymore and ignored her directly.
"Mother, didn't you see that the neighbors all came to the door, what are you still cooking there, and you don't hurry up to say hello."
Seeing that Xie Xiaonian didn't answer her words, Chun Tao felt a little unable to get off the stage, so she threw her anger on an old woman who was cooking under the eaves.
Although Chun Tao called her mother in her mouth, she had the slightest attitude of being a child.
"My mother is more honest and wooden, don't be surprised." After Chun Tao finished speaking, he turned his head and said to Xie Xiaonian with a smile.
"What's the matter, hello auntie, I'm a new neighbor who just moved next to me." Xie Xiaonian greeted with a smile.
"Hello, hello, I'm cooking, I have my hands, and I also have the smell of oil smoke on my body, so I won't go."
The old woman nodded at Xie Xiaonian, and after sneering, she turned her head and got busy again.
The other woman who was helping with the cooking just glanced over here, didn't even dare to say a word, just lowered her head and continued to work.
The cowering look was the same as that of the old woman.
And if Xie Xiaonian is not mistaken, there are several scars on the corners of this woman's eyes and neck, which are bruised and purple, and they look very scary.
"The old immortal is really getting more and more stupid the more he lives."
Chun Tao asked her mother-in-law to come over, mainly because she wanted her to ask Xie Xiaonian for a piece of jujube cake so that she could share it with her child, but it can be seen that she said hello, and she didn't even get close, so she scolded angrily in a low voice.
Seeing this situation, Xie Xiaonian felt that there should be a lot of housework in this family, so he had no intention of staying, and said to Cheng Ximei with a smile: "I see that there is still someone at the door, I will go over and say a word first, and then come to play with you when I am free." ”
"There is a little girl and a milk doll at the door, what is there to know, let's go to my house to chat." Cheng Ximei said.
"No, I'm going back to cooking, and I'll come back when I'm free." Xie Xiaonian said insistently.
"Then I won't keep you, and when I'm free, you must come."
And the house at the door, as Cheng Ximei said, is only a little girl about 13 years old, with her two-year-old nephew at home, her father and sister-in-law have gone to work.
Xie Xiaonian didn't stay long, and left after giving a piece of jujube cake, after all, she and a child had nothing to say.
"Xiao Nian, why did you come back so soon? Do you know your neighbors on both sides? As soon as Xie Xiaonian arrived home, Luo Changsong asked suspiciously.
"I've seen 3 or 4 of them, most of them haven't seen them, and I'm going to go there again in the evening." Xie Xiaonian put down the basket and explained.
"What? Aren't they all at home? ”
"Well, most of the people here are dual-income workers, children eat at school, adults eat in the canteen of the unit, and almost none of them come back to cook, so I don't see them." Xie Xiaonian replied truthfully.
"We still don't understand the situation, otherwise, it would be good to go over at night, and you won't have to make two trips." Luo Changsong said regretfully.
"If it's not in the way, it's all next to each other anyway, just run two steps." Xie Xiaonian saw that Luo Changsong felt sorry for herself, so she said with a smile.
"And how do the guys you see feel like people? Do you get along well? Luo Changsong inquired.
"It's okay, anyway, there are people who look easy to get along with, and there are people who don't get along well, but at present, I have also met them, I don't know much about them, and it is not easy to judge, and I will know when I get familiar with them later."
"Well, if they say something unpleasant, or show you a look, you don't have to endure it, anyway, we don't live in the same yard, and we are not afraid of them bullying us." Luo Changsong was afraid that Xie Xiaonian would tolerate it everywhere, so he specially instructed.
"I know, Dad, you can rest assured, if you want to be a good neighbor, it's not something I can accomplish with wishful thinking, don't force it." Xie Xiaonian answered warmly in his heart.
"Dad, you don't know how many people live in the yard on both sides, the one in the west of us, the courtyard with two entrances, there are 10 families living at once, and I don't know how to squeeze it out, and there is no kitchen, and the place to cook is built under the eaves outside. Fortunately, our house is big enough that we don't have to squeeze with others. Xie Xiaonian remembered the crowded situation and said happily.
"Then according to what you mean, the family is not divided into two rooms, can there be room for feet in that room?" Luo Changsong asked with a frown.
"Isn't it? I don't know how they all live. In this way, this city is not as good as our countryside, at least in the countryside, the yard is big, the house is spacious, and there are places to grow vegetables. Xie Xiaonian said with emotion.
At this time, no matter which family it is, there will be a lot of children, and if you add the elderly, you really can't imagine how the family lives.
