Ah Candle had no luggage, and the old woman only put on a torn cotton jacket for her, stuffed a tael of silver, and counted all her belongings. But she didn't want to go, she cried and cried. Xia Xiao saw it, and Shu Shuang went to the bridge to wait for her first. Looking at the old woman's determined appearance, she has to leave today, whether it is for safety or to get out of the mountains, she has to leave!

The outside world is not necessarily more comfortable than here, but it is certainly exciting. The so-called wonderful, that is, there are many things, trivialities, and sophistication, countless people are bored, and countless people flee. But there are still people who yearn for it and devote themselves to it, and they never get tired of it.

"You want her to go to Xia Mansion?"

"I can't get into the academy, I can only go to Xia Mansion. ”

Xia Xiao kept licking his mouth, the previous noodles were too salty and sour, and the aftertaste was so uncomfortable.

"It's good to go to Xia Mansion. ”

Although it was right to do this, Shu Shuang was a little unhappy, she didn't like Ah Candle, from the first time she saw it, from the time she pointed at Xia Xiao and spoke. She felt that Ah Candle did not respect Xia Xiao, but would stick to Xia Xiao. Her instincts have always been accurate, and this time was no exception!

On the side of the yard, the little yellow dog wagged her tail and ran to Ah Candle excitedly, but she knelt and did not pick herself up as usual, nor did she play with herself. Its little eyes were full of doubts, and it sat on the ground like her, looking at her grandmother with tears in her eyes.

"Grandma, I'm so obedient, can I not go?"

Ah Candle sobbed, and grandma couldn't bear it, but she still shook her head. She will be very ruthless today, no matter how coquettish Ah Candle is, it's useless, she should leave. And this opportunity is too rare, there are so many wild beasts galloping by before, she knows that something big is happening. Now that someone has come, it would be great to pick up Ah Candle.

Although she is a stranger, her grandmother has lived for so many years and can judge a person's character from a bowl of rice. The fact that these two people first had to separate their faces, and then drank them without leaving the soup was enough to prove that they understood things and knew what they meant. Such a smart person also stands quite upright, and he must not be a person with a bad mind.

"Ah Candle, I have told you since I was a child that one day you will leave. But wherever you go, don't forget what your grandmother taught you. ”

Ah Candle knew that her grandmother had made up her mind, so she swallowed the tears in her eyes. Grandma raised her and gave her life, and she also promised her that she would definitely go to the outside world in the future and learn to practice, even if she lived alone in the world, she would not be bullied and wronged. She thought that day was still far away, but she didn't expect it to come so soon.

Now that he is gone, he will return to the question period, and he will never even come back. The grandmother of the year of Mi Shou may return to the west one day.

"Take Doudou with you and let him see the outside world. ”

When the little yellow dog heard his name, he barked happily and milkily.

"Grandma, let Doudou stay with you at home. ”

The little yellow dog drooped its ears, and it also wanted to go with Ah Candle.

"No need, I'll watch you with Lao Huang. ”

The palm of the withered bark touched the top of Ah Candle's head, and his eyes were full of love.

As soon as Ah Candle left, she and the three old guys in the village could talk, but what kind of people would she meet outside? This road was too anxious, but the old woman always felt that this long maroon hair full of youth and vitality should not always be tied in a ponytail in the mountain village, but should go to the place where the wind rises. Whatever the outcome, it's time to break through. If you shouldn't be at a comfortable age, you can't nest at home, otherwise you will only raise a white-eyed wolf in her life like her, and in the end she will only gain indifference, and no girl who has picked it up feels sorry for herself.

Ah Candle had tears in his eyes, bent down and kowtowed heavily, making a muffled sound. A blood-red mark appeared on her white hall, like a strange red flower, but Ah Candle continued to knock. The old woman didn't stop her, it has been sixteen years since she picked up Ah Candle home. At the beginning, the girl who was only the size of a banana leaf did not know how much she ate to grow so big and so beautiful. Now, it's time to leave.

"Let's go!"

Three rings were enough, and the old woman hurriedly picked up Ah Candle and pushed it down the steps.

"Grandma, I'm leaving. ”

Ah Candle turned around, and Doudou was jumping down the steps. The steps were a little high, and it didn't dare to do it, but it wanted to keep up with Ah Candle, so it was so anxious that it circled around the courtyard.

Ah Candle took a few steps and came back to hug Doudou. After it was hugged, it immediately called out happily, and it was about to go to the outside world!

Doudou looked around curiously, as if from now on, it had left the deep mountain. This deep mountain stream, the tile building world, it is very familiar, what will the outside world be like? Is there meat to eat every few days? Will meat grow everywhere? There is meat on the flowers, meat on the trees, and meat in the fields, so I am looking forward to it.

Wiping the saliva on Doudou's hands, Ah Candle looked back at her grandmother, she still repeated the previous action, waving her hand to let her go, not wanting to turn back. Ah Candle left home, turned around three times in one step, got on the small stone bridge, stopped and hesitated, I didn't know whether to step forward, this place is full of her memories.

When I was a child, my grandmother and the grandfathers in the village went to Longgang. Because the road is too far, grandma won't let her go, and if she is tired and doesn't walk when she cries, it will delay time. So, she sat at the head of the bridge with the big yellow dog, always looking at the path out of the mountain, waiting for her grandmother to come back.

Whenever she came back, she would bring candy to herself, she jumped up and down happily, and now that she thought about it, she couldn't be happy anymore, only the tired face of her grandmother's hard work.

Vegetables will be planted on the roadside from the small bridge to the steps, green vegetables in spring, lotus white in winter, but Ah Candle's favorite is daylily. Every time the noodles are cooked, with a few fresh daylilies, it is very happy. Cooking this kind of noodles is particular, grandma cooks noodles, Ah Candle waits for grandma to give her an order, and then goes to pull the flowers, the fresher the better.

This kind of noodles can only be eaten a few times a year, and now it is gone, but she is very happy every time, and with some shredded meat, it is simply a delicacy in the world.

Because he was looking forward to it too much, Ah Candle would run to pick it up, and he fell on the steps a few times, it hurt very much, and he rubbed the skin. Once she fell so hard that she couldn't stand up. The old yellow dog was stunned, and circled around her, licking her wounds, but she still couldn't stand up.

As soon as he saw her crying, the old yellow dog went to find his grandmother. That day, my grandmother killed a chicken, said that she would make up for Ah Candle's body, and gave her chicken feet and chicken wings to eat. Grandma said that chicken wings can fly very high after eating, and chicken feet can catch money after eating, and Ah Zhu will definitely not worry about a few taels of silver in the future. Ah Zhu didn't hurt anymore when he heard it, he ate very fragrantly, and there was no meat left.

Thinking of this, Ah Candle burst into tears. She crouched on the ground, crying like a child lost in the crowd, like an abandonment, no one cared about.

"Ah Candle. ”

The old woman ran tremblingly with a cane, Xia Xiao and Shu Shuang looked at it and hurriedly came to help. But Ah Candle ran in front of them, and she called Grandma again and again, which made the old man's eyes red again.

If it was Shu Shuang, she would definitely not cry now, which would only make Grandma more worried. But Ah Candle is more casual, her emotions are always reflected on the surface, and she never hides them.

hugged his grandmother, Ah Zhu choked, and a drop of blood flowed from Yintang, which was extremely red. After so many years of hard work, Xia Xiao has seen a lot of blood, but such pure blood is rare. There is no vitality in it, no impurities, just blood, pure like a drop of water, like the pale blue vitality released by soothing cream.

"Ah Candle, you must remember Grandma. ”

"Ah Candle will not forget, never forget!"

Ah Candle wiped her tears, there was no makeup on her face, but the tears of parting were too bitter.
