Chapter 44: The Old House

September stopped at the door of the old mansion and shouted happily: "Uncle! ”

"Hey, September is coming, come in. Why did you come here at this time? What's going on at home? Su Changsheng greeted him.

"September, why are you here?" Megumi came out of the kitchen when she heard the commotion.

"Hey...... I came to my uncle for something. September grinned and grabbed Huiru's arm.

"Girl's house, don't run around at night. Those with broken mouths saw that they couldn't chew the root of their tongues behind their backs. Mrs. Su Mei came from the backyard with a dustpan and reprimanded September with a tiger face.

Mei has never spoken softly, and the Su family has long been used to it. The old lady said two words and forgot about it, but fortunately, sometimes the small things are not clear, but the big things dare not be ambiguous.

September also got to know Mei more or less, and he didn't take it to heart when he heard her reprimand, and besides, although her tone was not good, from another aspect, it was also for her good. Of course, she knew that the recent second room of the Su family was on the cusp of the storm in Sujia Village.

"Milk, I'm here for some business, I'll be back in a while." September is coping with haha.

"Hmm! With a reply, he sat down on a random step and began to pick the stones mixed in the bud.

"In September, that skewer is so delicious, my mother has been praising you." Su Huiru pulled over September and began to talk about the skewers, and September smiled and listened to it, very curious.

The eldest aunt is a man of few words, and she hasn't heard anyone say anything good about her. Every time I get along with her, I always feel that her words and deeds are quite regular, and September's casual temperament is somewhat impossible to let go of in front of her.

"Uncle really praises me?" September was a little incredulous, and several times she thought that Feng didn't like her.

"I can still lie to you, if you don't believe it, ask my mother. Mother......" Su Huiru said and shouted to Feng Shi of Mango in the kitchen.

September hurriedly covered her mouth, "I believe it, I believe it!" ”…… Why is she embarrassed to ask this, it's...

Feng had long noticed the movement in the yard, and looked at the small movements of the two sisters, but they just smiled and did not speak.

"By the way, what about you?" Looking around in September, he didn't see Su Youfu's figure, and he couldn't help but be a little puzzled.

"What about the backyard, let's go, I'll take you there."

followed Su Huiru from the side of the kitchen, and sure enough, I saw Su Youfu, sitting on a small stool, and a bamboo basket had begun to take shape.

"Master, September is coming." Su Huiru shouted sweetly.

"Hey, I've heard that for a long time. What's the matter with the nine girls? Su Youfu said in a hoarse voice.

"Master, what's wrong with your throat?" In September, when I heard that something was wrong with the old man's voice, I couldn't help but be a little worried.

"Lord was greedy for cold two days ago, and I wore less. Dr. Li has come to see it, prescribed medicine and is drinking it. Su Huiru explained that the old people always feel that they can resist minor illnesses, but how can they not worry about it when they know it.

"When you are old, you will inevitably have a small illness and a small disaster. It's a small problem, it's okay. Su Youfu continued to weave the basket while holding the bamboo strips.

"Master, since you're sick, rest. I'll make it up when you're ready. September endured the sourness and replied, the old man was hunched back, bent legs, and his hands were rough and calloused, but he still kept doing the work in his hands.

Those hands are very similar to the hands of my grandfather in my previous life, I often do farm work, and my knuckles are abnormally bent. The back of his hand was full of pitholes and scars, but it was such a pair of hands that held up the twenty-five years before September.

"I'm not tired, just wait for this to be done. Nine girls, aren't you in trouble? The old man had some "hateful" problems, and he still lowered his head and fiddled with the bamboo strips in his hand while talking.

"Tomorrow the builder of the house will come, and I want you to come and sit down. But you ...... like this, "Seeing the basket braided aside, it is estimated that the old man has been sitting here all day doing this, the old man's sunken cheeks, stiff sitting posture, and watching the September heart ache uncomfortable."

"If you don't worry about it, you can't delay it." Su Youfu paused when he heard the movements of his hands in building a house.

"In September, your family is going to build a house?" Su Changsheng came over and happened to hear this, before they only knew about buying land and building a house, but they didn't know anything about it.

"Hmm. Uncle, my dad asked me to come and ask you, he won't be able to deliver goods from tomorrow. Let's see if there's a suitable person to replace him. ”

Su Changsheng has long been prepared for the construction of a house in the second room, and it is okay to deliver the goods alone, that is, if the breakfast car is to be delivered every day, there must be a car. It's just this choice......

"But there is a person who has no land at home, is not busy on weekdays, is loyal and honest, I think he is the most suitable for this matter."

At this time, Su Changsheng also sold Guanzi, and September couldn't help but urge, "Uncle, who are you talking about?" ”

"No land at home...... Su Youfu filtered all the people in the village in his mind, and there was only one family when it came to landlessness. "It can't be Erwang, right?" Sun Xiucai's land had been sold to others a few years earlier, and they were the only ones in the village who didn't have a single piece of land.

"Erwang..."September heard this name a little familiar, but he couldn't remember who it was.

"Dad, it's him. What do you think? ”

The old man moved his legs slightly, and Erwang followed Sun Xiucai to be literate and hyphenated, as Su Changsheng said, he was indeed loyal and honest, but Sun Xiucai had to nod his head in this matter.

"I think it's feasible, let's ask someone to do the work, what do you plan to do with this salary?" Old Man Su looked at September, this kind of thing has always been an idea in September.

After thinking about it for a long time, I still can't think of Erwang, but if I can get the approval of the old man and Su Changsheng, it should be no problem.

"Master, it's just like Aunt Lin. Twenty wen a day, our incense booth will also be set up. Ask him to send the breakfast cart over and come back to deliver a food truck with a string of incense. ”

Twenty wen is a day's wages outside, and the number given in September also means according to the people in the Buddha village.

"The strings of incense are the ones that were sent tonight?" Su Changsheng recalled it and swallowed his saliva unconsciously.

"Exactly, what does Uncle think?" September looked at Su Changsheng with a smile.

Su Changsheng gave a thumbs up and nodded with satisfaction.

"That's good, my old guy is spicy too. The skewers just whetted my appetite. Su Youfu couldn't help but praise.

September frowned immediately when he heard this, "Master, you can't eat spicy food in your throat, don't eat irritating things." Otherwise, it will be more serious. ”

The old man waved his hand, a little unconcerned, his body knew by himself, and when people were old, there were not so many taboos.

Alas...... September was very helpless.

"Then without further ado, I'll go to Sun Xiucai's house." Su Changsheng is a man of action, and he left immediately after speaking.

Sun Xiucai!! In September, I will know who Erwang they are talking about, no wonder it will be familiar, isn't it Sun Xiucai's son. "Uncle, you go to my house and decorate some bean sprouts to carry it over."

After all, Sun Xiucai is still Su Jinghang's teacher, and he can't go to someone's house empty-handed.

"Yes, yes, it's still thoughtful. I'm going......" Su Changlin smiled awkwardly and walked out of the backyard unhurriedly.

Su Youfu was very satisfied with September's actions, and he was not very old. The sophistication of human feelings can be seen through.

Seeing Su Changsheng go out, Mei asked, "Why are you going?" It's getting dark? Su Changsheng replied ambiguously: "I'll be back in a while." ”

Mei raised her eyebrows and couldn't help muttering, one or two like to run out at night.

Feng Shi came out of the wing room and took a freshly made cyan floral shirt, "Mother, it's for you." ”

Mei glanced over, this is a muslin cloth, "This... How much does it cost? "Although the conditions at home are good, it can't be wasted, and this one on her body is also new.

"It doesn't take a few dollars, mother, can you try and like it?" Feng urged, the old lady was too economical, and the old clothes under the new clothes were still patched one after another. This makes people go out and don't know how to say it, the juniors are all brightly dressed, but the elders are still wearing old clothes.

"That'...... Try it. ”

Mei got up and washed his hands, and put on new clothes awkwardly, Feng smiled with satisfaction, not bad, very suitable for the old lady to wear.

When I came out in September, I saw that Mei had changed into a new dress, and when I saw them coming, my face was a little uncomfortable, and I hurriedly went into the back room to change down.

"Auntie, I'm going back." September said to Feng with a smile.

"Hey, let's go back. Stay safe on the road. ”

Feng Shi was still as indifferent as ever, and September didn't care.

Su Huiru followed September and sent her to the door, "September, I'll come to play with you tomorrow." ”

"Well, I've been home all the time, and you can come whenever you want. By the way, I can't eat too spicy food these days, and my throat feels a little inflamed. You pay attention. September remembered Su Youfu's hoarse voice, and couldn't help but admonish.

"Okay, I got it." Huiru looked at September, her eyes were full of banter, little girl, she really became a housekeeper if she went on like this.

September knew what Su Huiru meant, and ran out with a red face before turning around and shouting: "I'm leaving, you go in quickly." ”

Huiru smiled and waved her hand, watching her walk away.

By the time I got home, it was already getting dark. Before entering the door, I saw Chen Ye's tall figure standing in the courtyard, moving his two arms.

"Is the wound still itching for the past two days?" September passed and found a topic.

"Hmm!" Chen Ye didn't look at her, still staring at his arm, his expression a little unbearable.

"My arm is still weak, but it will be fine in two days. Don't be in such a hurry. Seeing that there were already beads of sweat on his forehead, September couldn't help but persuade that the wound on his arm was deep enough to see the bones.

"I know." Stopping what he was doing, Chen Ye looked at September seriously. With a complicated expression, he said in a deep voice: "Don't tell others about Xishan, stay away from that place in the future." ”

September was stunned, she was originally looking for him to tell him about it, but he opened his mouth first. "I know, I have already warned Sister Huiru, don't worry, she won't tell others."

"Hmm." Chen Ye nodded.

"There's something wrong with Nishiyama, the last time you were injured was because of this incident, right?" September hesitated and spoke.

Chen Ye looked at her fiercely, a chill appeared on his body, and his eyes exuded a dangerous aura. "You shouldn't know."

September's heart skipped a beat by Chen Ye's momentum, and he glared at him fiercely with nervousness, "Who wants to know, I'm not worried that your enemy will come to the door, and we will be unlucky." Hmph......"

Without waiting for Chen Ye to respond, September turned around angrily and went back to the house, took out two goose feathers, and started to make a goose quill.

Chen Ye stayed where he was alone, looking into the distance. I don't know what I'm thinking......
