Chapter 36: A Deserted House
Approaching evening, the sky was dyed with a layer of hazy fog, and the mother and daughter originally planned to take the latest bus back, but they couldn't resist Grandma Dong's kind invitation, so they agreed to stay at Grandma Dong's house for one night and go back tomorrow morning.
Zhou Chunyan, who was helping to cook dinner, could hear Wang Meihua complaining and scolding from the Xie family in the backyard from a few rooms, and felt a little emotional, obviously half a month ago, she was still living in the Xie family at the other end, but now she has nothing to do with the Xie family.
Xie Pujia, who was helping her mother choose vegetables, naturally heard it.
I have to say that Wang Meihua's voice is really loud, Xie Pujia can't help but suspect that every time Wang Meihua scolded at home before, Grandma Dong, as a neighbor, could hear it clearly.
Thinking of this, Xie Pujia's eyes looked at Grandma Dong.
Grandma Dong looked at Xie Pujia curiously, knowing what this little girl was thinking, she bent the corners of her mouth, and nodded at Xie Pujia, indicating that she had heard it many times.
Hey, no wonder Grandma Dong always looks at herself with pitiful eyes, it turns out that the scolding she has received over the years is actually ...... Live?
Xie Pujia pricked up her ears again, and tried hard to hear what Wang Meihua said in a high-pitched and sharp voice.
It seems that Xie Dahai is back, but Wu Xue stayed at her parents' house, Wang Meihua scolded Wu Xue for "ignoring her family" and "not being filial to her mother-in-law" and the like, Xie Dahai spoke in a flat tone, and responded to what Xie Pujia didn't hear clearly, and Wang Meihua roared excitedly, and then a sound of closing the door resounded throughout the room.
It sounded like Xie Dahai was too lazy to take care of Luo Li's rambling Wang Meihua, and went out to find someone to play cards, leaving Wang Meihua incompetent and furious at home.
Wu Xue is at her mother's house?
Xie Pujia's hand peeling peanuts paused, according to what she learned, Wu Xue's mother was the only one in Wu Xue's mother's house to see her, and the others didn't have a good face when they saw Wu Xue, how could they still stay overnight.
Something is wrong, something is wrong.
Xie Pujia put down the peanuts in her hand and said to Zhou Chunyan and Grandma Dong: "Mom, grandma!" I'll go out and play with Peaches for a while and come back at dinner! β
Zhou Chunyan knew that Peach was Xie Pujia's female classmate, and her daughter had indeed not seen her for a long time, so she nodded, "Go ahead, but it can't be more than an hour, you can watch the time and come back to finish eating." β
"Okay! I'll go to Uncle Liu's shop to see the time, they have a super big clock in their fruit store! After saying that, Xie Pujia wanted to rush out.
Grandma Dong hurriedly grabbed Xie Pujia's thin arm, "Wait a minute, what's the hurry, it's not that you won't be allowed to go!" β
As he spoke, he took out the scarf he had knitted for Xie Pujia years ago and wrapped it around her neck.
"It's cold outside, the radio says it may snow at night, you wear this, don't freeze."
Xie Pujia felt the warmth on the scarf, and there was a faint fragrance of plum on it, she knew that this was specially smoked by Grandma Dong for her, because she liked plum blossoms.
hugged the scarf and sucked hard, then hugged Grandma Dong's neck and kissed Grandma Dong's cheek hard.
"Grandma! I love you so much! Love as much as mom! β
The smile on the old man's face was not suppressed, and he laughed twice, "Okay, then grandma will work hard to surpass your mother." β
Xie Pujia blinked her eyes twice, "It's okay!" Today I love you more than Mom! β
After speaking, Xie Pujia put on her scarf and trotted out.
"I'll go first, and I'll be back at dinner!"
Zhou Chunyan admonished: "Pay attention to your hands when playing, don't bump into it!" β
"Got itβ"
Looking at Xie Pujia, who had already run away without a shadow, Zhou Chunyan and Grandma Dong unconsciously looked at each other and smiled at each other.
......
On the second day of the first lunar month, on the day when the married daughter returns to her parents' house, many people rush to the last bus to go back to their mother-in-law's house, so the road is full of people in a hurry.
No one noticed Xie Pujia, who was alone.
Xie Pujia wrapped her face in a scarf and trotted all the way up.
Since Xie Pujia asked Huang Qiaoxiu to find someone to follow Wu Xue a few years ago, and made a big deal about Wu Xue being pregnant with Xie Dahai's child, Huang Qiaoxiu and Xie Pujia felt that it was easy to have an accident before the divorce certificate was completed, so the people sent out did not withdraw, and followed Wu Xue and Wu Xue's mother for a few days.
They found that the back door of the Wu family's self-built house had no neighbors and had been closed, but the Wu family had a side door, passed through an abandoned old house, and spent about 10 minutes walking to a public toilet, and then there was the Liu family's fruit shop, through which Wu Xue often went to find Xie Dahai.
Later, Zhou Chunyan and Xie Dahai's divorce certificate was completed, and Huang Qiaoxiu felt that there was no need to follow Wu Xue anymore, so she withdrew the person who was following her, but this news was truthfully conveyed to Xie Pujia.
Now it comes in handy.
After a while, Xie Pujia arrived at the door of the Liu family's fruit shop, she first stretched out her head and poked into the store, wanting to see if Wu Xue was in the fruit store, but only saw Aunt Liu working alone in the store, and Aunt Liu had a boy bigger than Xie Pujia beside her, who was the son of the Liu family and his wife.
"Huh, Jiajia?"
Aunt Liu was busy with her feet on the ground, and when she saw someone standing at the door, she thought that someone wanted to buy fruit, but she didn't expect it to be Xie Pujia, who she hadn't seen for half a month.
She herself doesn't have much contact with the Xie family, Xie Dahai is a man who is idle all day long, and only knows how to gamble and drink, she can't look down on 10,000, but her husband and Xie Dahai have been wearing a pair of pants from childhood to adulthood, and they have known Xie Dahai for longer than her wife, so her husband is more familiar with the Xie family.
A while ago, Xie Dahai and Wu Xue had a scandal, and the couple owed Wu Xue's mother a favor, and after Wu Xue was caught raping, their family was forced to take Wu Xue in.
Although the person was taken in by their Liu family, she didn't have a good impression of Wu Xue, this kind of woman who destroyed other people's families and flaunted her martial arts everywhere, she looked down on her from the bottom of her heart.
This pair of dog men and women, now coming together, can be regarded as another kind of "getting what they want", at least they did not harm other innocent people.
Aunt Liu looked at the "victim" Xie Pujia in front of her, and felt a little pity in her heart.
Xie Pujia asked Aunt Liu in an innocent tone, "Aunt Liu! I want to see if my dad came to see Uncle Liu! I haven't seen him in a long time and I miss him a little. β
Listen, listen!
What a little pitiful thing is this, her biological father is not good to herself, and she cheats, but her daughter still has admiration for her father.
Yes, Aunt Liu is even more pitiful now.
Aunt Liu took a few sugar oranges from the fruit basket on the side and stuffed them into Xie Pujia's hand, and said, "Your father didn't come to look for Uncle Liu, your Uncle Liu has something to go home, you go to the mahjong room to find it, your father likes to go there." β
Xie Pujia's tone was grateful: "Okay! Thank you, Aunt Liu, I'll go to my dad! β
After speaking, Xie Pujia carried the sugar orange and left the fruit shop in a hurry.
Walked to the back of the fruit shop, looked around, and sure enough, I saw the public toilet, she took a small step, and it took more than ten minutes to walk through the other side of the public toilet, it was indeed a deserted house, someone lived in the past, and then the family all moved to the city, the house was not taken care of, more than ten years have passed, and the desert is not the same.
At this time, night was completely falling, and Xie Pujia was hidden in the night, inconspicuous at all.
