Chapter 019: Ah Q
Xu Jing went upstairs with her grandmother, and only Shu Wan and Xu Cheng were left in the living room.
The atmosphere became a little delicate.
Shu Wan pretended to be relaxed, leaned out and grabbed a handful of melon seeds, knocking them.
"How are you?" Xu Cheng asked softly.
Shu Wan glanced at Xu Cheng and quickly looked away. She laughed dryly and said, "What's good?" What's bad? ”
Without waiting for Xu Cheng to say anything, she said: "I already knew that life has no meaning in the first place, and it is no different from ants." It's up to us how we live our lives. I'm a very lazy person, I don't set goals for myself, I just have to make do with my life. ”
Xu Cheng smiled and said, "Are you still lazy?" When you go to school, you arrive at school very early every day. ”
"It was forced. If I can be lazy, I will not be diligent. Shu Wan replied.
When she went to school, she had to get up early to cook breakfast, so she got up early.
The two sat in silence until Xu Jing came downstairs.
"Why don't you watch TV?" Xu Jing came over and sat down between Shu Wan and Xu Cheng.
She picked up the remote control and pressed it randomly, and said, "You don't know how happy it is to be without children." It's been a long time since I've watched TV properly. ”
"Oh?" Shu Wan asked.
"The TV was taken over by the kids. He wants to watch cartoons, and I have to watch them with him. What a happy child is now. When did adults like us consider our feelings? Xu Jing smiled and said.
The times are indeed different.
At that time, children from good families grew up playing with mud with other children. Those who have a bad family background grow up working. Today's children are well protected by their parents and grow up.
After watching the TV for a while, I heard movement outside, and it was Xu Jing's parents coming home.
Shu Wan hurriedly stood up and went out.
"You are?" Xu Jing's mother looked at Shu Wan for a long time and hesitated.
"Shu Wan, later went to Wangcheng with her parents to study." Xu Jing said.
"Oh, oh, I haven't seen you in years. Is your grandmother okay? Xu Jing's mother asked.
"Okay, let's sleep at your house." Shu Wan replied with a smile.
Xu Jing learned what happened in the afternoon.
"Well, we went several times for this. But people are broken and scolded. We can't say for sure. Xu Jing's father said.
In order to welcome Xu Cheng, Xu Jing prepared a lot of dishes at home, but there was no need to buy them again.
At dinner, my grandmother decided to stay at Xu Jing's house, and then live in her house after the renovation was completed.
"Grandma, you really don't want to look back at the city?" Shu Wan asked.
"Not back. What's so good about Wangcheng? Die of heat in summer and cold in winter. Wan'er, if you want your grandmother to live a few more years, let your grandmother stay in her hometown. Grandma please. Grandma said.
"But—" Shu Wan was puzzled.
"Shu Wan, you can rest assured. With us taking care of you, you don't have to worry about your grandmother. Xu Jing's father said.
Xu Jing's mother glanced at Xu Jing's father and said, "This matter is not urgent, we have to think about it in the long run." Shu Wan, haven't you taken a few days off? In the past few days, I will accompany your grandmother to stay in my hometown and feel the feelings. The hometown is good, and the city is expected to be good. It's never too late to decide. ”
"Hmm." Shu Wan nodded and said.
Shu Wan wanted to wait a few days before reporting what had happened to her family. After dinner, my grandmother called Shu Wan's mother.
Before the words came out, he cried first: "Xiang'er, your mother is going to die!" ”
"What's wrong? Wan'er called me in the afternoon and said that you have successfully arrived at your hometown, and you are fine. Ding Xiang was startled and asked.
"She's a child, just reporting good news and not bad news. I'm telling you, our house was almost occupied. Grandma added fuel and vinegar and learned what happened to Ding Xiang.
"Don't want that house. Mom, you give Shu Wan the phone, and I tell her to let her take you back to Wangcheng tomorrow. Ding Xiang said angrily.
Shu Wan was so reckless that her lungs were about to explode. Fighting with broken foot bones, they don't compromise means. Thankfully, nothing happened. If something happens, what can be done?
"No! Xiang'er, if you want me to look back at the city, you want my life! I just stayed in Shujiazhuang and didn't go anywhere. Grandma said angrily and hung up the phone.
Shu Wan's mobile phone rang, and it was Ding Xiang calling.
"Mom-" Shu Wan answered the phone.
"Wan'er, you tell your mother that your grandmother will die in Shujiazhuang." Grandma said loudly, deliberately so that Ding Xiang could hear it.
Shu Wan smiled apologetically at everyone, and took the phone to the yard to pick it up.
"Your grandmother is really old and confused. Now everyone is looking at the city, she goes back to her hometown alone, who cares about her? I don't care. You were the one who brought her home. You find a way to bring her back to Wangcheng tomorrow! Ding Xiang said angrily.
"Mom, this matter is not urgent. Besides, I also feel that my grandmother is bored living in Wangcheng. Every day is either watching TV or watching TV. Shu Wan whispered.
"Shu Wan!" Ding Xianghedong roared, "If you don't bring your grandmother back to Wangcheng, then don't go back." You also stay in Shujiazhuang. ”
In this way, Ding Xiang hung up the phone.
Shu Wan sighed.
There is a mother, and there is a daughter.
The mother is impulsive, and the daughter is impulsive.
Xu Cheng came out of the house, stood next to Shu Wan, and said, "Your grandmother was stabilized by my aunt, and it's okay." They were discussing, where the land temple wished spirits. ”
"Sorry to make you laugh." Shu Wan lowered his head and said.
Xu Cheng stretched out his hand to pat Shu Wan's shoulder, but retracted his hand again.
A gust of wind blew, and Shu Wan shivered.
"The wind in the mountains is cool, go back quickly." Xu Cheng said.
"What about you? How have you been doing all these years? Shu Wan asked.
"Me?" Xu Cheng shrugged his shoulders and said, "It's okay, that's it." I am content to be fed, clothed, and well-educated. ”
"It's good to be content, it's good to be content," Shu Wan smiled and said, "We both have the spirit of Ah Q, which is good." ”
She paused and said, "When are you going back?" ”
"Two more days. It's rare to come back, and I want to stay longer. Xu Cheng said.
"Is this your first time back?" Shu Wan asked.
"yes. Many, many years. The old trees at the entrance of the village have become a little bigger. Still, I feel kind when I see you. Shu Wan, you are still the same as before, thin and tall, and the expression on your face has not changed much. Xu Cheng said.
Shu Wan laughed and laughed at himself: "I'm still thin? Some time ago, some people said that I was strong. My mom always thinks I can't get married. She made me so tall and strong, and the men of this age are not all with a habit of breaking sleeves. ”
"In my eyes, you will always be that tall and skinny little girl." Xu Cheng said.
Shu Wan smiled dryly and said, "Yes." Men like the weak type, which can stimulate their desire to protect. ”
"I, that's not what I mean," Xu Cheng said......
"Come back, it's a little cold." Shu Wan crossed his hands and rubbed his arms and said.
