Chapter 180: Naturally Not Familiar
I was slowly reluctant to go to the city, and then I heard that my aunt and granddaughter had grandchildren, so I went up every once in a while, which was unfortunate, Su Ning and this family had a very small chance of encountering, so naturally they didn't know each other very well.
Putting her luggage in the yard, she went out door to door to find her aunt and grandmother, she liked to go to the old lady's house across the field to chat, the two have been good friends for decades, and they will not forget each other when they are older.
I was only halfway there, and I saw my aunt hurrying over, she was not tall, she was still a little chubby at her age, her shoulder-length short hair was gray, but she was combed very smoothly, canvas linen, and sleeves on her arms, and she still walked steadily.
"Grandma!"
"Oh, it's really my good boy who is back, the old woman of Brother Cheng'er said that you are back, I still don't believe you?"
Grandma has already grabbed Su Ning's hand, carefully and carefully, looking at it seriously, she is really her own good child, her eyes are full of tears, and so is Su Ning.
"It's me, seeing that there is no one at home, I am still going to look for you in someone else's house."
"Stinky girl, I don't know how to say it in advance when I come back, what if the old lady is not at home?"
An old man and a young man helped her to go home, Su Ning liked her chattering care, and occasionally said a few heavy words, and she also felt very kind.
The small room in the attic was still reserved for herself, but her aunt didn't let her in, which made Su Ning feel uncomfortable and happy, thinking that her aunt was extremely good to her.
"I've packed up all your stuff for you, and I'll use it when you get back."
"Thank you, Grandma."
"Look at what you say, you are my good baby, I don't hurt you, I hurt anyone."
Su Ning smiled, looking at this familiar room, her heart was warm, the old lady should have cleaned it often, there was no dust on the table and floor, and the sheets and quilts were neatly folded.
Grandma has already gone downstairs to live in brown sugar eggs for her, and she can't miss it if she doesn't come home, she said that it is to remove dust, but also to report safety, Su Ning knows that she is not so particular, it is just the love of the older generation for the juniors.
When I cleaned up and went downstairs, I just drank her brown sugar eggs, the brown sugar was boiled by hand in the village, and the sugar was very authentic The eggs were from the chickens at home, this big bowl made Su Ning cry.
My aunt watched her shed tears, her eyes were full of distress,
"What's wrong? Isn't it delicious? If it's not tasty, don't eat it. ”
"It's delicious, the things made by my aunt are delicious, but I haven't eaten it for a long time, and I'm a little happy."
"Oh, then I'll come back and see the old woman when I'm free, I'll make it for you every day."
"Okay."
With tears in her eyes, Su Ning finished eating all the brown sugar eggs, looking at the white and clean in the bowl, the old lady was also happy, and couldn't help but look at Su Ning carefully several times, she looked better, and the person was a lot ruddy, unlike the last time she came, she should have been too tired, her eye sockets were sunken, and she couldn't lift her strength.
It looks much better now, the little girl is much less shy, and instead of being intellectually mature, the old lady has lived for so many years, and she knows that she will not be wrong to look at people, not to mention that Su Ning has changed a lot, and her words and deeds are not the same as before.
Anyway, she is not young, of course, she has to think about the rest of her life, and I looked at her carefully for a while, wanting to ask, and I also knew that it was not appropriate to speak now, and I could only lead the topic to the other side. Su Ning was still immersed in the joy of coming back, so she didn't notice her aunt's little emotions.
"I'll lie upstairs later, and my aunt will make you something to eat tonight."
"Okay, thank you, Grandma."
Sitting in the morning car, this time is really a little tired, it is already two o'clock, I can't help yawning, listening to the old lady's words, go upstairs, the sheets and bedding are laid, lean down, face buried on the pillow, smell is the smell of laundry detergent, the older generation does not like to use laundry detergent, floral pillows are also the trend at that time.
was about to close his eyes, and suddenly remembered that he hadn't told Qi Yanchen that he had arrived, so he quickly turned over and took his mobile phone, he had already sent four or five messages.
"Get off the plane, pay attention to safety on the road, and call me at any time if you have something."
After a few minutes, it was sent again,
"Tell me when you get there."
"He Zhou has already arrived at the hotel, and he will attend the opening ceremony in the afternoon."
"Have you arrived?"
"Remember to have lunch."
Then maybe it was busy, so I didn't send it, the corners of Su Ning's mouth curved, and she replied one by one,
"It's already here, and my aunt boiled me brown sugar eggs."
"I've eaten a lot, and now I'm ready to sleep, and I have to eat on time on a business trip."
"Don't worry about me, call you again in the evening, stay safe.
After returning the message, I slept with peace of mind, maybe the smell was too familiar, and I fell asleep in less than two minutes, and when I woke up, the sun was about to set, and I opened the window, and I could see the yard from this position, and my aunt was folding vegetables in the yard.
The old man leaned on his back, looking at it was down-to-earth, she also cleaned the yard by herself, and looked closely, there were many plants in the corner, and the triangular plum had climbed to the wall, and the flowers were red and dense.
Just the right afterglow hit the floor, and suddenly I thought that this picture was so good, how nice it would be if it could be like this all the time, and I stood here and watched for a while before I quickly went downstairs in my slippers, and the sound of the wooden stairs also came out.
"Da Da" accompanied her footsteps, until she went downstairs, changed her clothes, and looked a little innocent.
"Grandma!"
"Oh, good baby, you're awake."
Grandma is old, but her ears are still very good, when she heard Su Ning call her, she didn't hesitate at all, she turned her head by herself, both of them had full smiles on their faces, in her eyes, Su Ning was still a little girl, and she had been following behind her ass.
In the past, she was young, and she could only come back for a few days during the winter and summer vacations, and she was a little alone, carrying a large bag and a small bag, and she was not afraid at all, and she was directly distressed and sad at that time. When I thought of her complicated family, I was even more angry, her mother and grandmother died early, and they still grew up watching by themselves, and their feelings were better than their own grandchildren.
"Why don't you call me, I can do these things for you."
"Oh, don't look down on my old woman, I still have the strength to do the little things, can I sleep well?"
"Okay, it's still comfortable at home, and the quilt and pillow are still exactly the same as before."
The old lady didn't speak, but she couldn't hide the smile on her face, the movements in her hands didn't stop, Su Ning wanted to take it over and help get it, but she didn't expect her to clap her hands,
"I'll do it myself, you can just sit and watch."
"Grandma, I'm not a child anymore, I can help you work."
"As long as my old woman is in one day, you are a child, by the way, just now Brother Cheng'er and Grandma took their freshly pressed tofu over, and brought a bowl of tofu flowers by the way, I put it in the pot for you, go and see, it's still hot, you used to like their tofu flowers."
Indeed, every time I come back, if I can touch their family pressing tofu, the old lady will definitely go to their house to ask for a bowl of hot tofu flowers for herself to drink, and over time, the grandmother of the city brother also remembers that she will definitely press the tofu as soon as she comes.
After listening to the old lady's words, she hurriedly ran to the kitchen, lifted the lid of the pot, and sure enough, she saw the tofu flower that was still steaming, and the old lady was afraid of the cold, so she was stuffy in the pot and hot, and couldn't help but feel warm.
Carefully took out the bowl, took another spoon, and dug two mouthfuls without hesitation, the fragrance of tofu echoed at the tip of the nose, it was the previous taste, it has not changed, although it has not been eaten for a long time, but as soon as you touch your mouth, you can make people remember.
"Grandma, this tofu flower is delicious, you can taste it."
forcibly fed the old lady, she also had crooked eyebrows and eyes, and her face was happy, but her mouth was not forgiving.
"You eat it yourself, I've been eating it for many years, and I'm tired of eating it for a long time.
"Good!"
Su Ning knew that she was joking, and she followed her meaning, one bite after another, and after a while, a bowl of tofu flowers bottomed out, Su Ning touched her bulging belly, this is all happiness.
"Tomorrow, let Brother Cheng'er's family press another drawer."
"No need, just eat it once, how can I trouble people, not to mention that people remember me, I am grateful."
Yes, everyone remembers her, and they all treat her as their own granddaughter, looking at the empty bowl, and falling into deep thought, next time Qi Yanchen comes, he must interview them well. I grew up eating 100 family meals. "Yes, the old ladies in the village also talk about you from time to time."
"I'll stay here for a few days, and I'll talk to them with you then."
Dinner was also made by the old lady, as long as the two of them, but she made several dishes, all of which she loved to eat when she was a child, around the wooden table, she felt that she was back when she was a child, probably because she was getting older, and it was easier to recall the things she did when she was a child.
"Eat more, it's all what you like to eat, it's hard outside, look at the little face is thin."
"No, it's not hard. It's because you haven't seen me in a long time, I'm fat. ”
One old and one young, this meal also made Su Ning supportive.
After dinner, the sky is still bright, the people in the village eat very early, too full, she sat under the loquat tree to eat, probably the sun is about to set, the weather is also a little cool, the temperature difference between day and night in the village is a little large.
"Good baby, cover the blanket, it's going to be cold this day."
My aunt stood at the door, and when she saw her lying under the tree like this, her heart tightened, and she ran to the house to get a blanket and came out, and covered her without hesitation.
"Grandma, it's not cold at all."
"It'll be cold later, and it's already cool under this tree, not as good as in the city, so you still have to pay attention."
"Got it."
Wrapped in a blanket, with the smell of an old lady on it, the mobile phone in her pocket rang at this time, and Su Ning didn't have to think about it to know whose phone it was, so she remembered that she didn't tell her aunt that she was married.
Before answering the phone, I specially looked up at the old lady, but fortunately, she had already turned her head and entered the door, I don't know why, I was a little relieved.
"Hey."
"Lemon, it's me."
She felt a little funny, obviously the number was his, and she also saved his name, and every time she called, she would say such a sentence, and she was a little comfortable to rely on.
"I know, is the opening ceremony over?"
"It's over, just arrived at the hotel."
"Tired or not?"
Qi Yanchen didn't take a break to attend the opening ceremony as soon as he got off the plane, he took his work very seriously, and he didn't want to be sloppy at all, this opening ceremony should also be held in one go, it should be very tiring.
"Not tired, what are you doing?"
"Lying on the reclining chair in the yard, I have already eaten dinner, and I also ate tofu flowers, and the rice cooked by my aunt and grandmother is delicious, I ate two more bowls, and I died."
She babbled, Qi Yanchen listened quietly, he liked to listen to her, just hearing the voice felt very satisfied.
"I'll eat tofu when I go back."
"Okay, I'll ask Brother Cheng'er's grandmother to press tofu for you, she has been making tofu for many years, and she can eat it every time she comes, and my aunt says they love me."
Hearing her say at this time, Qi Yanchen knew that she would only feel the warmth of home when she went back, and the old people in the village held her in the palm of their hands, so even if she had been in the Su family for so many years, she was still kind.
