Chapter 2 The Yard of Grandma's House
Su Xinyi's grandmother's house is in an old house, there are not many such old houses, and the people who used to live with such a yard can definitely be regarded as a solid family in Shanghai.
However, Su Xinyi's grandmother moved to Qingpu to live, and it was only in recent years, when my grandfather was alive, the Pei family lived in Jing'an Villa, and after my grandfather died a few years ago, my grandmother moved to the old house in Qingpu.
There are five main rooms in the old house, there are two rows of side rooms on the left and right, and there is a small garden behind the main house, there are small pools in the garden, as well as rockeries, and there are a lot of colorful goldfish in the small pool, Su Xinyi likes these goldfish the most.
Outside the door of the old mansion, Su Xinyi jumped out of the car, rushed to the gate, and shouted, "Grandma, grandma, I'm coming to see you!" ”
"Nannan, is it grandma's baby, oops, it's really grandma's baby!"
Although my grandmother is old, she is still wearing an embroidered cheongsam, semi-high-heeled leather shoes, her hair is meticulously permed, she wears thin-rimmed glasses with mirror chains, pearl necklaces, and small watches.
Grandma gave birth to three sons and a daughter, three sons gave birth to three grandchildren, only the youngest daughter gave birth to a daughter, that is, Su Xinyi, because there is only such a little girl in the family, so grandma loves Su Xinyi like a baby.
Even, the grandmother also announced that she would leave the Jing'an Villa to Su Xinyi, along with the store on Nanjing West Road, to her baby granddaughter.
Such a statement caused strong dissatisfaction among the aunts, of course, their dissatisfaction can only be a very subtle ridicule of Pei Ning for not giving birth to a son in private, but in front of her grandmother, she would never dare, her grandmother would definitely think that there was something wrong with their thoughts, and she would educate them ideologically, and her grandmother's skills were much more powerful than Pei Ning.
Grandma hugged Su Xinyi and said with a smile: "Nannan, grandma has ordered a cream cake, you must eat more after a while!" ”
Su Xinyi was happy: "Doesn't grandma eat noodles for her birthday, I can eat a big bowl in one go, and I only eat birthday cake on my birthday!" ”
"There are noodles too, there are cakes too, grandma is very fashionable, and she has to eat cakes on her birthday!" Grandma said with a smile.
The uncles in the living room laughed together, and the aunts and uncles laughed too, but their smiles were a little awkward, the old lady loved her granddaughter, and none of them could do anything.
Later, Pei Ning and Su Qing came in, Pei Ning first called her mother sweetly, and then greeted her brothers and sisters-in-law, the three brothers are used to it, but the sisters-in-law all have a feeling in their hearts, how old are they, what are they pretending to be!
The three sisters-in-law hugged each other and asked with great concern: "Ning Ning, when will you have a second child?" ”
"Although it's good to have only one, if you really want to give birth, you can go to the United States to give birth!"
"Yes, yes, if you don't go to other places, it's a big deal to pay a fine and let your brother-in-law come out, he is willing to do it!"
Su Qing was listening, knowing that we didn't want to have another life, so I said that, every time it's like this, it's really speechless, well, it's just that I'm speechless, my wife is still very talkative, I just need to keep the smile on my face!
Pei Ning immediately fought back: "Sister-in-law, I heard that the eldest nephew's exam is the bottom of the class, this is not good, I know a tutor with a very high level, I will introduce it to you, second sister-in-law, I heard that ...... Sister-in-law, I heard, oops, I really just heard about it......"
Su Xinyi thought to herself: "Here it is again, I don't want to listen to their chatter, the world of middle-aged aunts is so scary!" ”
She took her grandmother's hand and looked obedient: "Grandma, I'll go to the garden to play with the little fish!" ”
"Well, okay, let's go play!" Grandma nodded and said with a smile, and then said to her sister-in-law: "What's wrong with my eldest grandson, the countdown to the exam?" What the hell is going on, you make it clear, boss, come here......"
The eldest brother looked helpless, he just blamed his wife in his heart, what kind of verbal fight with the little sister was nothing, and it was not himself who suffered in the end, listening to his mother's inquiry, he had to explain: "It's just the midterm exam, the child caught a cold before the exam, so he didn't do well in the exam, it's okay, and ......I'll look at it at the end of the semester."
Su Xinyi came to the small garden in the backyard, squatted on the edge of the small pond, and looked at the goldfish in the water, grandma's goldfish are all very precious species, not only the color is good-looking, the tail is beautiful, and even the size is very large, which is very appreciative.
Picking up the fish food jar on the shelf, Su Xinyi sprinkled a small handful of fish food into the water, and the goldfish immediately came over to grab the food, eating very happily, Su Xinyi Gege laughed.
The footsteps sounded, the second cousin and the little cousin also ran into the garden, Su Xinyi's three cousins are each one year apart, the eldest cousin is in the third grade of primary school this year, the second cousin is in the second grade, and the third cousin is in the first grade, Su Xinyi is about to go to school, as soon as she enters school, the three cousins will each be promoted to one level.
The second cousin smashed his mouth, stood beside Su Xinyi, and said: "The eldest brother is unlucky, he is being trained inside, grandma says he is stupid, his brain is full of paste, this paste is not with the uncle, with the aunt!" ”
The third cousin glanced back at the front and whispered, "The eldest aunt's face is green, emerald green!" ”
The second cousin cut off: "What's green, why didn't I see it, nonsense." ”
"This is called exaggeration, exaggeration knows no, it is a rhetorical method, taught in Chinese class, you are older than me, I don't know, when grandma finishes scolding the eldest brother, it will be your turn, when you see it, grandma said who you follow, it is estimated that it is also with your mother!"
Su Xinyi laughed, none of her three cousins are stupid, but the conditions at home are too good, and her parents are not strict, so they don't care about studying, and when they get older, they will get better.
As for the grandson's brain, who is not good, in the grandmother's mouth, of course, it is with the mother, the father was born by her, and with the father is not the same as with her, how is this possible, her brain is so good, there is no paste in it.
Seeing that Su Xinyi was happy, the third cousin pouted and said: "Little sister, don't look down on the eldest brother, he is bold, we went to visit the haunted house yesterday, we didn't dare to go in, if he dares, my second brother and I can admire him!" ”
The second cousin nodded hurriedly and expressed his admiration for the eldest cousin.
Su Xinyi asked strangely: "Haunted house, is there a haunted house here in my grandmother's house, I haven't heard of it before!" ”
The second cousin pointed outside and said, "It's on the west side, at the end of Puzi Street, do you want to go and have a look?" ”
The "shop street" he said refers to the Zhujiajiao scenic spot, and the end refers to the periphery of the scenic spot, where the houses are relatively dilapidated, and many locals rent their houses to people who do business in the scenic spot, and most of the people who rent there are outsiders.
Su Xinyi thought about it and was a little scared in her heart, a haunted house, it sounds quite scary, but if you go to see it during the day, there should be nothing to be afraid of, and it shouldn't matter if you go on an adventure!
She put down the fish food jar in her hand and waved her hand: "Then let's go and have a look!" ”
The three children ran out of the garden through the back door and ran together to the so-called haunted house, which was an adventure!
