Chapter 228: Closed
When he got home, Kou Xi put down his things and said to Aunt Gao: "The child may have been frightened, you can coax him to sleep first." I'll make something delicious for the kids!"
Aunt Gao looked at Kou Xi carrying things, and was a little distressed about the money, and said embarrassedly: "What are you buying these things for? Big bone broth is drunk every day, you see he has gained weight twice now, and he has grown taller. ”
"Didn't I also receive much help from you? Besides, if it weren't for me, the child wouldn't be scared today. Kou Xi said with a smile: "If you don't die, there will be a blessing, let's have a good meal today." Celebrate, the wicked are rewarded!"
After experiencing a fright, Gao Da Niang was also a little physically exhausted. led the grandson back to the room, and the grandfather and grandson soon fell asleep.
Kou Xi went to the vegetable field to pick some oil beans and came back, and pinched the oil beans. Seeing that the time was still early, I thought about it and went to the old fish head to buy a five-pound big carp back. I went to Grandma Zhang's house in the front yard and bought a handful of mung bean sprouts.
She cleaned up the fish and dismantled the bones and slice them. Add green onions, ginger, garlic, a few drops of white wine, and soy sauce to the sliced fish.
Boil the water in the small pot in the yard and blanch the pork ribs to the bloody foam. Cut the pork loin into boxy slices and set aside.
After preparing all the side dishes, Kou Xi quietly entered the tall lady's house. Secretly took out all the dirty clothes she had put on the kang, found a shady place in the yard and began to wash clothes.
When Mrs. Gao woke up and opened her eyes, she found that it was already more than four o'clock. She hurriedly sat up and pulled her grandson: "Eldest grandson, wake up." I can't sleep at night!"
Niu Niu opened his eyes with a sigh and looked at his grandmother a little confused. He couldn't tell whether the terrifying scene was a dream or reality.
"Grandma, there are bad people bullying aunt!" Niu Niu sat up with a crying voice and threw himself into the old lady's arms.
Mrs. Gao patted her grandson distressedly and touched his wet back: "Oh, no one bullied my aunt." We've been at home, grandson, you're having nightmares!"
Niu Niu tilted his head and still couldn't think clearly, Gao Da Niang scratched his nose with a smile: "Eldest grandson, are you hungry after sleeping all afternoon?"
As he spoke, Niu Niu's little belly gurgled. Mrs. Gao got out of bed with a loving face and took out a box of peach cakes from the cabinet. Take out a piece from it and hand it to Niu Niu: "Eldest grandson, you pad your stomach first." Auntie stewed pork ribs for you in the evening!"
The tall lady walked out of the house and found a row of her own and grandson's clothes hanging in the yard. There was a look of emotion on his face, and there was some unknown sourness.
Niu Niu is now getting closer and closer to Kou Xi, and likes to stick to her every day. A child at this age should have been taken care of by his mother. It's a pity that she is old and in poor health, and Niuniu's mother doesn't care about him.
The tall lady was sad, and the cow milk asked in a milky voice: "Grandma, it's so fragrant, it's so fragrant!"
Aunt Gao smiled and said, "Your aunt gave you stew!"
The grandfather and grandson came to the small independent stove, which was an earthen stove that Huo An had built behind using clay for Kou Xi. There is a burning branch underneath and a pot on top, so it is convenient to cook without making the house stuffy.
Gao Da Niang pinched the lid of the pot and opened it, and found that there were pork ribs stewed inside. Green Northeast oil beans, fresh thin-skinned potatoes. Just look at it and make your mouth water!
"Wake up!" Kou Xi came out of the garden, clutching a handful of coriander in his hand.
"Oh, you haven't rested all afternoon. Aunt Gao looked at Kou Xi distressedly and pointed to her face: "You see that you are much darker than when you came, and you don't know that you are wearing a hat." ”
Kou Xi smiled: "It's not too dark, I don't wear a mask outside without a hat, I don't tan!"
Niu Niu ran over, took Kou Xi's hand and handed the peach cake he had bitten a few bites to Kou Xi: "Auntie, pad your stomach!"
Kou Xi was quite moved, squatted down and said to Niu Niu gently: "Niu Niu is really good, I know that I feel sorry for my aunt." Auntie is not hungry, Niu Niu eats by herself!"
"Auntie was bullied, don't you cry, Niu Niu will help you beat the bad guys when she grows up!" Niu Niu is a child who speaks very late, and he said so many words at once, which surprised Gao Da Niang and Kou Xi. Especially Kou Xi, tears flowed down as soon as he brushed it.
"Thank you, Niuniu!" Kou Xi hugged the child in her arms, she didn't expect that there would be a child in her life who could say such things to herself.
Niu Niu stretched out his little hand and patted Kou Xi's back: "Auntie don't cry, Niu Niu protects you!"
Aunt Gao didn't expect Niu Niu to say this to Kou Xi, clapped her hands and laughed: "My eldest grandson is really good, your aunt is not rare for you!"
Kou Xi wiped his eyes and burst into laughter. She picked Niu Niu up and said with a smile: "Auntie is very happy today, Auntie is not afraid." Do you see if Uncle Huo beat the bad guys away today? So don't be afraid, Uncle Huo and your father are the most powerful people. The two of them can protect us!"
"I can protect you too!" Niu Niu didn't forget to scold the tall lady: "I also have to protect grandma!"
Kou Xi happily kissed the child's face: "What a good baby, Niuniu, you are so good!"
Huo An came back with Deputy Battalion Commander Gao. As soon as he entered the yard, Niu Niu rushed up like a little tiger. Huo An bowed down and scooped him up and held him in his arms, pinching his little nose: "Niu Niu, are you scared today?"
"Don't be afraid!" Niu Niu held the wooden pistol made for him by the senior deputy battalion commander in his hand: "I have a gun, fight bad guys!"
"That's right, fight the bad guys!" Huo An happily buttoned the hat on Niu Niu's body: "In the future, Niu Niu will also be a soldier when he grows up, protect his family and defend the country, and clean up the bad guys!"
Mrs. Gao stepped forward with a smile and asked with concern: "What happened later? I heard them say that the single super is a relative of the Daguozi family, and he has come several times behind our backs." ”
Huo An put Niu Niu down, his face dark: "This matter is not only on their side, there are others in it." ”
"Who else?" the old lady was very nervous when she heard this: "Why did you come back so late?" she looked at her son, and patted her chest as if afraid: "Oh, it scared me out today! Look at me, my hands are still trembling. These bad boys, they're so good!"
Deputy Battalion Commander Gao's face was also ugly, but there were some things they couldn't say yet. can only comfort the mother: "Mom, it's okay." With Unit Chief Liu and Director Ma, those people will not come to make trouble in the future. ”
Deputy Battalion Commander Gao took the opportunity to persuade the old lady: "Don't sell steamed buns in the future." You can't make a lot of money, you're tired enough!"
