Chapter 033: So And So And



Xu 20 temptations, Dong Xiaokui never said that someone came to Yunlai Town to inquire about her. She admitted that when she heard this before, she was very anxious, a little confused, and missed Xu Er very much, and missed his days by his side. That's why I made a phone call, wanting to listen to the long tone of the phone one by one.

However, when I received his call, I heard his clear, clean voice slid low over my ears, but the wind in the field shook the soft grass, and the tips of the blades of grass swept over my heart. Her heart trembled, thinking that he had so many things to strategize, not only to calculate accurately, but also to take into account the overall situation. Dong Xiaokui suddenly sobered up, unwilling to say half a word to him. I just want to solve it myself, so I say I miss him in a soft tone.

Xu Er was helpless, and didn't ask much, just talked to her in a lazy voice, mostly teasing her, and sometimes asked her seriously about her physical condition and research achievements.

Dong Xiaokui replied one by one, sometimes in a naughty tone. Of course, she wants to know more about him, but as his woman, she can never ask "what have you been doing lately", or "how is your body". Because they are taboos, and they are contrary to the secrecy required by the profession in which he is employed.

But Xu Er seemed to know what she was thinking, and after talking on the phone, he suddenly said, "Don't worry, I'm fine, I'm just busy." ”

This man is always aware of everything, and can easily see through her, and from the first time they met, it seems to be like that. Dong Xiaokui sighed secretly, there was a feeling of nowhere to escape, but she also felt a kind of happiness that was captured.

She let out an "um" and listened to his repeated instructions. Those admonitions are nothing more than paying attention to adding or subtracting clothes, eating three meals and sleeping regularly, and so on. It's all homely words, which are unimaginable to anyone who knows Xu Zhonglin. Such a deep, decisive man, who would have thought that there would be a side of fireworks life? And I can just see the side of this fireworks life.

Dong Xiaokui feels how lucky she is to be treated like this by him, and her heart has always been full of happiness. Immediately, he didn't want to tell him about his trivial matters, and told him to pay attention to his body. In the end, he was going to be busy, and before hanging up the phone, he suddenly said, "Stone, remember to find Chen Jun if you have anything." ”

"Hmm." Dong Xiaokui replied. secretly wondered how powerful this man was, and knew that something must be wrong with her.

"Okay, I'm going to get busy, you take care of yourself." Xu Er admonished again, and then smiled again: "Do you think I'm too long-winded?" ”

Dong Xiaokui's nose was sour, he chuckled, and said, "A little." I love it, though. ”

Xu Er also smiled and said, "Okay." I hung up. ”

He said that Dong Xiaokui suddenly shouted "Zhonglin". He hurriedly asked, "Is there something to tell me?" ”

"You have to take care of yourself, I ——, wait for you to come back." Dong Xiaokui said that she remembered the last time they separated, and Xu Er wanted to hear this. She was too ashamed to speak, and this time she said it to him.

Xu Er was stunned for a moment, replied "Okay", and then hung up the phone. Dong Xiaokui stood by the window for a while, watching the sunset fade away, the distant mountains were green and blue, and the twilight was heavy. After talking to Xu Er on the phone, she felt that she was calm, and she was no longer as restless as she was just now.

After chatting with my mother for a while, I began to list the recent events. She draws the figures on paper, trying to find a connection between them. But everything is just guesswork. Dong Xiaokui thought that he was not Detective Conan, so he gave up.

However, I hope that those four people have not left here yet, and will investigate again tomorrow. It's time to recharge your batteries lately, and maybe something else will happen soon.

She decided to go to bed immediately. The light rain in late spring poured down the whole town. I slept peacefully all night, and when I got up early the next morning, Dong Xiaokui ate and fed the monkeys, and got up and said that I would go to Hexiangdu to have a look.

In late spring, after a rain, the mountains become greener. Dong Xiaokui drove to Hexiangdu. Uncles and aunts naturally have to be envious. She just smiled, went to look at the third grandfather, and chatted with him for a few words. After that, I went to the old house to have a look.

The old and desolate wooden house has a kind of green and cool in the wet weather. As if walking into another time and space, she supported the third grandfather, from the front yard to the backyard, and then to the garden behind the backyard. The flowers and trees in the garden are sparse, and there are a few towering trees that do not know the age, still flourishing, and there are crisp chirping of birds among the branches and leaves. Across this garden, there is a tall wall, which is said to have been used to defend against bandits. The wall forms a narrow sandwich road, and from the sandwich road, it is the Dong family's collection pavilion.

The so-called collection is nothing more than some classics and seals of the Dong family, as well as genealogies and the like. After many times of dispersal and repair, it is no longer considered an antiquity. But the above content is a real Dong family, since the end of the Tang Dynasty, all the glory of doing things and doing things, some even in the form of a diary. The records are very detailed, if you really want to say that the records are vague, it is only in modern times, especially in the years of the Anti-Japanese War and the Cultural Revolution. The Cultural Revolution is naturally a special era, so there is no need to repeat it. During the Anti-Japanese War, the ancestor of the Dong family, that is, Dong Xiaokui's grandfather, was a businessman, traveling south and north, selling leather goods, etc., and the farthest business could extend to the north.

"There are really few classics left by my grandfather." Dong Xiaokui looked through those classics. The third grandfather sat on a chair next to him wrapped in tobacco leaves, and replied slowly, "Your grandfather disdains those books that make people do good. I don't like Mingzhe's way of protecting himself, and he is determined to carry forward the Dong family. At that time, I was busy traveling north and south to do business, how could I have time to write classics to record anything. Later, the northern warlords were fighting, and your grandfather somehow joined the army. ”

"Well, I've heard my grandfather mention it. Dad said it, too, but I was too young to know about it. Dong Xiaokui replied. secretly thought that maybe this time in the script, grandpa can also be a highlight.

"I don't want to mention it. He took the money he earned to join the army, and later seemed to become an official. Later, I heard that during the Anti-Japanese War, he died in battle. Not even a single bone. The ancestral graves are all clothed mounds. Where did he write some books? The third grandfather coughed as he spoke.

"I only knew that I was dying outside. But he didn't know that he was killed in battle. Dong Xiaokui said. In fact, I have heard of it before, but many people are reluctant to mention it.

"I heard that he fought with the Japanese and died in battle. Later, during the Cultural Revolution, those dolls ran into the house and jumped, and your grandmother threw the kitchen knife directly, and started scolding, just moving the fact that your grandfather died in the Anti-Japanese War. scolded until those dolls were speechless. Later, your grandfather also came back from outside, and this calmed down a lot. Otherwise, how could this Dong family be preserved. The third grandfather opened the chatterbox and narrated while reminiscing.

Dong Xiaokui listened carefully, but felt that this grandfather was a legend. However, in the end, there is no impression, the grandfather in her impression is the patriarch who was substituted later, not grandpa's father, but grandpa's uncle.

She intuitively felt that this grandfather was definitely a person with a story. After listening for a while, the rain outside became heavier and heavier. Seeing that it was approaching noon, her mother called and asked her if she was going back to eat, saying that the monkey had been restless, clutching the cage in the cage and meowing all the time.

Dong Xiaokui was worried about the monkeys, so she sorted out some classics to take away, and the third grandfather heard that she was going to write such a story. Just thought about it for a while, and said slowly: "Back then, your grandfather also wanted to use his way to carry forward the Dong family. Aoi, can you do it in your way? The third grandfather is not highly educated, but he is still afraid that he will go too fast, too high, and he will be very dangerous. ”

"Third Grandpa, don't worry, I'm not competing for fame and fortune, I just want the past glory of the Dong family to be presented to the world in a suitable way. It's not that I'm trying to compete for fame and fortune. Third grandfather, please rest assured. Dong Xiaokui replied, packed up some classics, and agreed on a date for return.

The third grandfather didn't say anything. Dong Xiaokui held an umbrella and helped the third grandfather home. There was already moss on the bluestone slabs, and the rain was getting heavier and heavier.

Dong Xiaokui did not eat in Hexiangdu, but drove straight home. She was very worried about the monkey, afraid that it would be sick. To be honest, there is Xu Er's temperament in the monkey. It does not seem to be a cat, but a refraction of his spirit. Dong Xiaokui has inadvertently become a part of it.

It was raining, Yihua's development in Hexiangdu had begun, and the huge billboard on the side of the road was wet with rain, and the blurred shadow of the advertising board was her back.

She looked at it, drove back to Yunlai Town, and didn't care about lunch, so she went upstairs to see the monkeys. Before I could get inside, I heard a monkey barking. Dong Xiaokui hurriedly went in, and the monkey was clutching the cage irritably.

"Aoi, be careful, don't get caught by it." Mom suggests.

Dong Xiaokui stood at the door and shouted: "Monkey? ”

When the cat heard her call it, it immediately stopped paws, and did not bark, but just looked at her. She walked over and shouted, "Monkey." ”

The monkey barked twice and looked at it peacefully. Dong Xiaokui made fried fish for it to eat, and the monkey ate it very seriously, as if he was afraid that she would lose it.

"It seems to be a confession. You say this cat looks like a human. Mom was relieved too.

"Hmm. It's spiritual. After getting acquainted with my mother, I don't recognize my life. Dong Xiaokui said. In my heart, I thought of Xu Er.

Confirm that the monkey is okay. Besides, there were a lot of things that were packed, and there was nothing wrong with the archaeological team. You can also complete the manuscript you want to complete at home. Dong Xiaokui decided to stay at home for a few more days. Anyway, Yunlai Town is quiet, the environment is quiet, suitable for creation, there is a vegetable field at home, and fresh vegetables are very convenient. Besides, Yunlai Town on an April day is a beautiful season, with green mountains and green trees, and the river water is also clear. Very pleasant.

Mom was naturally happy to know her decision, but it was just a bitter monkey and had to be locked in a cage. Because of the old house, there are always many opportunities for cats to get lost. In recent years, there have been more people eating cats, and a fat cat like a monkey can easily become a delicacy on the table if caught.

The monkey also seems to be self-aware, as long as Dong Xiaokui is in the house, it will sleep quietly in the cage and will not be irritable.

In the evening, Dong Xiaokui went to the lame tofu shop at the entrance of the street to buy tofu. There was a woman in her fifties who was also picking tofu there. The clothes were ordinary, but the fabric seemed to be good. Dong Xiaokui couldn't help but take a few more looks.

Li's lame mother was not there, he stuttered again, and asked the woman what tofu to buy, she was nervous for a while, and the stuttering was more serious, and the woman didn't understand, but Dong Xiaokui explained: "He means to ask you what kind of tofu you are buying." The fried ones should be this one, and the ones that are a little older. If you want to cook the soup, you want this, and it will be tender. Stir-fry garlic sprouts to ask for this. This is the one who makes tofu brain. ”

Dong Xiaokui pointed out one by one. Li lame nodded again and again, and said, "Xiaokui, what do you ——, you, when, back, come back?" ”

"Yesterday, I would have stayed for a while. Tomorrow morning, I'm going to buy fresh tofu brains, so you can leave some for me. Dong Xiaokui smiled and bought two pieces of tofu to use as tofu soup.

"Okay, okay." Li lame smiled innocently. This Li Cripple is still her classmate, because he is lame and stutters, he is very old, and he only went to elementary school. At that time, in the class, everyone else bullied him. Dong Xiaokui is the youngest, but she always fights for him. This man is kind and makes tofu with good skills, and the neighbors are willing to buy his tofu.

The woman listened to Dong Xiaokui's pointing, smiled slightly, and said, "Thank you." Then I asked for a piece of tofu for soup, opened the delicate wallet, and paid for it.

Dong Xiaokui bought tofu and went home, but the woman also walked with her. Dong Xiaokui smiled slightly, and the woman said, "I came here for a vacation and stayed for a few days, but it was very peaceful here." ”

"Yes, it's rare to have a well-preserved ancient town in China. Those who advertise and are famous are all made by the day after tomorrow. Dong Xiaokui also smiled.

The woman nodded approvingly, and when she reached the west alley, she turned in. Dong Xiaokui suddenly said: "Although you are leisurely, you still don't want to go around at night, after all, the countryside is full of people's quality." ”

The woman paused, turned around and said thank you, with a smile on her face.
