Red silica
She was holding a sprinkler to send rain to the flowers around her, and the fine cold water forced away the heat floating in the air, and I saw that she was skillful and meticulous, and her eyebrows were gentle, and she looked like she was taking care of her grandson.
In Su Deng's memory, she seems to have never changed, and she seems to have suddenly aged in an instant.
"Grandmaβ"
Su Deng shouted as he ran to her.
Pan Fenglian was in a trance, the passage of time not only grayed her hair, but also damaged her hearing.
"Grandma, don't you recognize me? I'm a lamp. β
Pan Fenglian helped her reading glasses, and then recognized the girl next to her, "Dengdeng, I'm here to play this year." β
"That's a must, but playing is secondary, mainly to come and see you."
The old man smiled happily, "Okay, you can come to see grandma, grandma is very happy." β
Su Deng looked at the wrinkles on the old man's face that became deeper and deeper with the smile, mottled like a shadow falling to the ground through the dense green leaves, and his eyes couldn't help but feel a little hot.
She had a picture of her mother in her mind, her long seaweed-like hair fluttering and smiling in the garden.
Twelve years have passed, and does she have as many wrinkles on her face as her grandmother's?
Twelve years is one-tenth of the ideal length of a person's life. But Grandma Pan and her mother have known each other for six or seven years longer than that.
According to her, when her mother was not yet giving birth to her, she also liked to come to Longhu Villa to play in the summer.
That summer, Pan Fenglian was pruning the branches in the forest garden as usual, cutting and cutting, but found a pregnant lady sitting on the side of the road, her face was pale, and her lips did not have a trace of blood.
She hurriedly helped the person up and took him to the nearest staff building.
Fortunately, it was only a mild heat stroke, and after dissipating heat and feeding water, her symptoms were immediately and visibly reduced.
That woman was Su Deng's mother, Lu Manman.
According to her, because she wanted to eat ice cream, but her husband refused, she coaxed and deceived her, so she was angry and ran out of the hotel by herself.
Afterwards, Lu Manman and Su Tanmo were very grateful to Pan Fenglian for her kindness, and later Lu Manman would take Su Deng to visit her every time she came to Longhu Villa.
came and went, and the two became friends who forgot about the year.
Now, this friendship has also continued to Su Deng.
Later, the Su family's marriage changed, and Lu Manman left the place where he had lived for seven years, and he was gone for twelve years, and there was no news.
is so resolute, Su Deng has no way to contact her so far, and the latter has never taken the initiative to see her.
Su Deng only felt that she was like duckweed in the rain, broken and floating, and the only remaining bond between her and her mother was tied to the person in front of her, Pan Fenglian.
It was when she was seven years old during the summer vacation, when she and her friends came here as usual to visit Pan Fenglian, but the latter delivered her an envelope.
The cover of the envelope is blank, there are no stamps on it, and there is no information about the sender. There was no appeal to the heartfelt words in the letter, some were just one sentence-
"This is the past year, don't think about it, don't think about it."
Chic and ethereal glyphs, like her people.
At that time, she was still young and couldn't understand this sentence, but she could understand the sadness in her grandmother's eyes, and she seemed to understand that it was impossible for her and her mother to see each other again.
She also begged Pan Fenglian to tell her everything she knew with her only remaining hope, but all she got was a sigh.
"Girl, Manman asked someone else to give me the letter, but she didn't come to see me for the last time......"
To this day, Lu Manman's whereabouts are still unknown, but it has become her habit to visit the old people in the villa every summer.
Thinking of this, Su Deng casually threw the bag on the stone bench on the side, "Grandma, you rest for a while, I'll help you." As she spoke, she took the sprinkler from Pan Fenglian's hand.
Pan Fenglian's smile never fell off her face.
"Grandma, go sit down." Su Deng pointed out a place for her, "Hey, right there, the wooden pier next to the tree." β
The old man obediently did so, "The lamp has grown up, and I know that I feel sorry for my grandmother." β
"I don't feel sorry for you, who do you feel sorry for?" Su Deng winked at her playfully.
Suddenly, as if there was a sense, Su Deng looked behind him.
Because of the watering, she was already some distance away from where she had just started, and her satchel could not be seen from this angle.
What's going on, it seems that someone has just walked over, and the speed is very fast.
But she looked around, and at the moment, apart from her and Pan Fenglian, there was only the greenery around her and the blazing sun overhead.
"What's wrong, Lamplight?" Pan Fenglian saw her standing still and asked strangely.
Su Deng came back to his senses, "It's nothing, I just shook my eyes by the sun, grandma, you are sitting." β
When Pan Fenglian heard this, she even told her to slow down, even if the watering work was not finished, she still had her old bones on top.
The breeze blows, bringing up the steaming heat. The sunlight overhead shines through the layers of green leaves of the trees, shining on the ground, although their own light is already very thin, it still brings light and warmth to people.
When Pan Fenglian looked at them, she would think of the child in front of her.
She murmured, "Manman, this kid is looking more and more like you. β
"So well-behaved, how can you bear to leave her behind......"
*
After Su Deng finished his work and sent Pan Fenglian back to the staff dormitory, a round of scorching sun had already set in the west.
She hummed an unknown tune and walked up and down the road.
There was a lot of sweat on the way, Su Deng wanted to go back to take a shower quickly, she walked into the hotel door briskly, and when she was about to go to the direction of the elevator, she saw that the corner of the hall, near the glass window, was full of acquaintances.
Su Deng stepped forward curiously, "Didn't you go to the swimming pool?" Why did you come back so early? β
On the elegant black leather sofa, Zhao Yingkai and Luo Shaokang sat on the armrests on both sides, Cheng Xuexue and Jiang Zhou sat on both sides, and in the middle of the sofa, Li Xin hugged Zhou Xiaomian, patting her hand on her back continuously, and the latter was actually ......
"What are you crying about?" Su Deng asked strangely, but he couldn't stop looking at the excitement in his eyes.
"Su Deng!" When Cheng Xuexue saw her, she whispered and hurriedly ran to her side, "Why did you come back?"
"What's wrong?" Su Deng ignored the obvious nervousness and seriousness in her voice, and asked with a smile, "Why is she crying?" β
Cheng Xuexue waved her hand and motioned for her to stop talking.
"Woo woo woo that's the heirloom of our Zhou family, Sister Li Xin, you must help me......" Zhou Xiaomian raised his head from Li Xin's arms with tears in his eyes, his eyebrows and eyes were red, and his soft posture trembled slightly.
Zhao Yingkai next to him looked at it coldly, he couldn't see a girl crying in his life, and finally couldn't help but say at this time: "Xiaomian's ruby and silicon gemstone necklace is lost." β
Su Deng didn't care, "If you lose something, go and look for it, cry around here, the necklace will run out by itself?" β
"Isn't it that I haven't found it, Xiaomian said that the necklace has never been taken out, and the room is just the four of you girls......" Luo Shaokang said with a somewhat embarrassed expression.
