The Li family's grandmother's birthday banquet was lively. In the banquet room were the village chief Uncle Gen and his daughter-in-law Aunt Gen. Cao'er also saw Yun Yuan, who was much more well-behaved, and Yun Tu, who had heard Li Yunfeng mention but had never seen before, but Li Yunfeng's uncle was still working in Guangzhou and couldn't come back, so I heard that he brought back a big red envelope of 200 yuan to his mother.

The sweet and sour carp on the table, the stewed catfish in sauce, the stewed duck soup with radish, the stir-fried mustard greens, the scrambled eggs with green peppers, are all grass and Li Lan'er, plus Yunqin is on the side, Li Yunhe squats on the stove to make a fire, and Chef Li Yunfeng makes it, and he is full of praise for Uncle Gen and Aunt Gen, saying that the Li family brothers and sisters must be promising.

The grass sent the food to her mouth gently, and she also sandwiched the vegetables gently, and her heart was beautiful. She secretly thought that this Li Yunfeng really had two strokes, and the food he cooked was no worse than that made by his father and mother, and even more delicious than the cook in the restaurant in the city.

The dishes on this table can be regarded as eating into the heart of the grass, and the joy of a table of people, you and I have chopsticks, sandwiched with the beautiful taste of festivity, has been firmly fixed in the tongue and teeth of the grass since then. As soon as she remembered the scene of that day, the smell of the meal that was sitting together at that time immediately overflowed, making the grass really fragrant and her tongue relish. She herself couldn't make that kind of taste.

"Grandma, I wish you a long life and happiness like the East China Sea! Happy Birthday! ”

After the meal, the grass surrounded the Li family's grandmother and blessed her again.

Grandma Li is a hearty and gentle personality, regardless of family affairs, just watch the safety of her grandchildren, Grandma Cao'er is a capable housewife who loves to take charge of things, although she is also a son and daughter, but there is no living experience of the big family when the family is separated, but she has to run the plan, and when she encounters difficulties, she summons Lao Yuntou and a group of children to give advice. As a grandchild, Cao'er doesn't need to think about any practical problems in life at all.

But in Li Yunfeng's family, although the Li family's grandchildren are young, Grandma Li never takes care of things, and follows the grandchildren's temperament. Besides, in addition to the house furniture, the family also relied on the help of the village chief and the support of the village committee, which finally boiled down to the wardrobe drawers in Li Yunfeng and Li Yunhe's room. There are two drawer keys for money, one is in charge of Li Yunfeng, and the other is held by Li family's grandmother, but it is mainly Li Yunfeng who makes plans, and if Li family's grandmother wants to buy something, she will tell her eldest grandson in advance, because she herself has never been to school, is illiterate, and is not very good at arithmetic. Li Yunfeng still looks a little boyish, but whether it is managing household belongings, doing various housework, or making various plans for his family and family, he is gradually becoming mature.

Li Lan'er also understands this, which is why since she was in the same class as Li Yunfeng in the fifth grade, she knew a little about Li Yunfeng's family, so she ran to Li Yunfeng's house from time to time to help the Li family's grandmother and the Li family's brothers and sisters do this and that outside the house, but Cao'er didn't know. But Li Lan'er has lived in the village next door to Li Yunfeng's family since she was a child, and she also grew up doing farm work, and she is also a good worker, which makes the Li family's grandmother and Li family brothers and sisters very grateful.

"Grandma, don't do anything today, just wait for your eldest grandson and granddaughter to serve you and enjoy the blessings of the old birthday star!"

Aunt Gen, the daughter-in-law of the village chief, also smiled, and glanced at Li Lan'er inadvertently. This kind woman, her mother's family is also in the next village, just next door to Li Lan'er's family.

"Yes, grandma, today is your big day, let us juniors give you a good time."

Li Lan'er said as she clenched her fists and gently pounded Grandma Li's shoulders.

"Good, good! Listen to you! ”

Grandma Li was full of joy with a big chrysanthemum blooming on her face, and then turned her face to the village chief and his daughter-in-law and said:

"Thank you! If it weren't for you and the village, my old bones and these little dolls...... But how can you get by! ”

"Eh, Grandma Li, don't say this today, everyone is in the same village, it is right to help each other, when there is no one in trouble, wow, but you want to thank us, it's okay, you will take your grandchildren to my house another day, let Chunxiu bring you some good dishes, drink two pots of old family wine, and thank you well."

The village chief patted the old man's knee and said happily.

"Yes, you see that the grandchildren in your house are all capable and sensible, although Yun Yuan is naughty when he is young, but this will be bigger, and he will also be taken by his brothers to be very sensible. You're an old man! ”

Aunt Gen, the daughter-in-law of the village chief, held the old man's hand and smiled.

"Yes, the old man is blessed, and he is blessed by you and the big guys in the village, and by my grandchildren. I thank you, thank you! ”

Grandma Li smiled heartily, her silver hair shining in the noon sun. Between the old man's eyebrows and eyes, which were squinted by laughter, although he was old, he was still moist and moist, and his face was shrouded in the halo of charity and beauty.

While the village chief and grandmother were talking and laughing, Cao'er leaned sideways towards Li Yunfeng and asked about his current situation, but she was still worried about his studies. Their former ideals, the wishes that the two of them made in the morning light, she has always remembered. It's just that she quietly changed the wish she made that day to be a scientist to a painter, and turned it into a two-step life plan to achieve the wealth of material wealth first, and then realize the artistic pursuit of the painter. She thinks that Li Yunfeng will not change, because what he has always said and what he wants to do will not be easily changed.

"Li Yunfeng, how have you been at school lately? Are you still used to it? ”

"Hmm."

"And how are you going in class? Do you know everything in the textbook? “

"Well, it will."

"I'll come back and practice with you during the winter vacation! I'll make a copy of all the exam papers in our school and bring it back to you. “

"Hmm."

Cao'er and Li Yunfeng had already walked to the well fence outside the living room, Cao'er took out a transparent plastic document bag from the plastic bag in her bicycle basket, which contained the photocopied test papers of each subject, handed it to Li Yunfeng, who was standing face to face with her, and then admonished:

"You must find time to do it, see if there is anything you don't understand, and I'll talk to you next time, okay?"

"Okay."

Li Yunfeng lowered his head slightly, and naturally held a bag of copies in front of his chest and held it in his hands.

Cao'er looked at him, and suddenly didn't know what to say.

In the afternoon, the side of the well railing under the eaves suddenly seemed to be quiet without a sound, and the laughter and laughter of Grandma Li and the village chief chatting in the living room seemed to float to the heels between the two young men and girls who were still standing, but they were all absorbed by the silence between this line of heaven and earth, and also became the silent part of this line of heaven and earth.
