In July, there had just been a heavy rain, and the air was full of salty and wet smells.

Yu Jian walked under the eaves, took off the raincoat full of water droplets on his body and hung it on the hook next to him, and wiped the sweat on his forehead.

Rao Township is located in the Pearl River Delta Plain, which is affected by tropical cyclones from June to October every year, and often encounters typhoons and always rains heavily.

Pushing open the door, the room was quiet, and Grandma Yu should be taking a nap at this point. She slowed down and tiptoed into her room.

"Who? Is it Arjan? ”

The old man slept lightly, and woke up at the slightest sound. Yu Jian heard the sparse sound coming from her room, and hurriedly agreed: "It's me!" Grandma, you can sleep a little longer. ”

After saying a few more words, the old man stopped thinking and continued to make up for sleep.

Today is the last day of Yu Jian's sophomore year in high school, and after this summer, she will be a senior in high school. It has been a full year since she was reborn.

In this year, she gradually forgot the life of Datang, forgot the identity of Li Yuanxi, and adapted to modern life. Now, she is an ordinary little girl waiting for the college entrance examination.

Looking at my room, it's not big, but it's very warm. On the pink and tender sheets, there is a huge lying bear doll, and on the desk is the study materials that Grandma Yu has helped her sort out and stack neatly. On the wall, there are also certificates of awards won by Yu Jian from childhood to adulthood.

Reaching out and touching it, it is obvious that someone takes care of it every day, not only is there no dust, but even the corners are not curled.

The corners of Yu Jian's lips rose slightly, obviously in a good mood.

When I came out of the bathroom, the hot shower washed away the sticky feeling after being rained, and the cold wind of the air conditioner blew over, and I suddenly felt comfortable all over my body.

Yu Jian wiped her wet hair, and as soon as she sat down on the chair, there was a knock on the door, and Grandma Yu called out to her: "Ah Jian, I boiled licorice juice!" ”

"Got it, I'll be right away." Yu Jian showed a faint smile and responded loudly.

The summer in Rao Township is humid, and the older generation will always boil herbal tea to get wet and nourish themselves. Yu Jian tasted it a few times, but was always persuaded by the complex flavors. Grandma Yu retreated and often made some licorice fruits. Yu Jian couldn't refuse, and she could only bite the bullet.

"Grandma, I'll just come by myself." Yu Jian took her grandmother's hand and went into the kitchen by herself.

Licorice juice was served in a porcelain jar the size of a basin, Yu Jian touched the wall of the jar, it was cold but not icy, it should have been taken out of the refrigerator by grandma in advance.

Grandma Yu's licorice juice is a secret recipe, boiled with salted and sour plums and licorice, boiled until the heat is boiling, and then two crushed fresh hawthorns are added. The licorice juice boiled out in this way is sweet and sour, and the fragrance comes to the nose.

Yu Jian picked up three star fruits from the basket, took mangoes, apples and guavas, washed them and put them on the board, and when the knife fell, it became a beautiful shape.

I took a glass bowl, stacked the fruit in the bowl first, then drizzled with a spoonful of refrigerated licorice juice, and finally sprinkled with a pinch of minced southern ginger for an appetizing taste.

Yu Jian forked a piece of apple soaked in the soup, the flesh was white and bright, the bright yellow licorice juice dripped down, and took a bite, the first thing in the mouth was the crispness of the flesh, followed by the sweetness and sourness of the licorice juice, and finally a touch of the spicy taste of southern ginger.

The three flavors echoed in her mouth, and Yu Jian narrowed her eyes in satisfaction.

I quickly ate the fruit in the bowl in three or two bites, and drank the soup in one go, and my whole body was satisfied.

Yu Jian picked a few fruits that her grandmother liked, and made a bowl of licorice fruits, the old man's teeth were not good, so Yu Jian tried to use soft and glutinous fruits that were good to eat.

"Grandma, I put some more minced ginger, how about you taste it?" Grandma Yu is so spicy and doesn't like sweet.

The old man took the bowl with a smile, took a piece of mango flesh in his chopsticks, nodded and gave a thumbs up: "It's delicious!" Our family's craftsmanship is really good, and he has the style of the old Yu family. If your grandfather is still ......."

Speaking of Grandpa Yu, Grandma's tone was lowered, and the hand holding the bowl hung down slightly, and she sighed silently.

When Grandpa passed away, Yu Jian was not yet born, but I heard that it was an accident, and Grandpa Yu had a car accident on the winding mountain road and died on the spot.

The old couple of the Yu family are a young couple, and the grandmother became the child daughter-in-law of the Yu family at the age of twelve, and the relationship between the two was very good after they got married.

After decades of ups and downs, when the news of Grandpa Yu's death came, Grandma fainted immediately and almost died.

Later, Yu Jian was born, and Grandma Yu lifted her spirits a little. Yu's father originally wanted to take his old mother to the capital with him, but the old man refused.

She has guarded the fishing village for most of her life, and when she is old, she just wants to spend it quietly in her hometown.

Yu Jian has been close to her grandmother since she was a child, and she insists on staying in the village. Yu's father couldn't resist the two of them, so he could only send more money to the family every month, and Yu Jian's life was good.

"Grandma, Dad called yesterday and said to let me go to the capital to play." Yu Jian hesitated for a long time, but still told her grandmother.

The old man looked up, surprise flashed on his face, and then an encouraging smile appeared: "Your father was talking about it a few days ago, and let you go over the summer vacation." When you were a child, you always said that you wanted to go to the capital to study at university, so you can go and see first, and you can also have a goal to work hard for a year. ”

This child usually doesn't talk much, but as long as she speaks, it means that she already has an idea in her heart.

Yu Jian frowned slightly, thinking sideways. Grandma is old, and if she travels rashly, she can't take care of anything at home. But in her heart, she wanted to go to the capital to see.

After weighing it for a long time, she let go of her clenched fist hand: "The school has organized summer vacation activities in a few days, let's talk about it when it's over." ”

In the end, I still feel a little relieved that Grandma Yu can't be relieved.

Grandma Yu patted her hands and persuaded her: "Grandma can do it by herself, and she will ask the village people for help if she has anything." And Yuanyuan, the last time I came back and looked at him, he seemed to have gained weight again, you go and look at him and let him lose weight! ”

Speaking of Yu Yuanyuan, Yu Jian pursed her lips. This little fat man is only six years old this year, and he is the second child born by Yu Jian's parents in the capital, and he is ten years younger than himself.

The little fat man really didn't disgrace his name, he was round all over his body, and he thought it was a ball if he didn't look carefully.

That day, Yu Jian walked to the school gate after school, and the ball bounced like a cannonball and hugged her leg.

When she was still stunned, Xiaoqiu raised her face and shouted with big eyes: "Sister~"

Yu Jian lowered her head, watching her facial features squeezed into a ball by fat, and her various feelings were mixed.

When she took Xiaoqiu's hand and got on the boat back to the village, she came back to her senses, didn't her parents give birth to her, where did this little meat ball called her sister come from?
