Chapter 679 Moonlight
Author: Mr. Buai
The old lady's room also has a bathroom. In fact, every room in this house has a bathroom, and the bathroom in the master bedroom on each floor also has a bathtub.
However, compared to Su Qinghe's bedroom, the old lady's room was one-third smaller in area. The interior layout was very simple and could be seen at a glance, with only two pieces of furniture.
One is a large mahogany bed that looks a bit old. The wooden frame supports a somewhat yellowed mosquito net. At this time, the opening of the mosquito net is lifted up and hung on the two corners of the top of the bed. You can see that there is no mattress inside, just a mattress.
A straw mat.
The other piece of furniture is an old-fashioned wooden cabinet that is older and has turned black. There is an iron lock on the cabinet door, and there are some small items on the top of the cabinet, such as kerosene lamps, rusty iron flashlights, and peeling enamel.
"Tea jar", a broken small sieve, etc. Among them, the few kerosene lamps placed on the outside look very new, with red paper stuck on them. Bai Zhi speculates that the old lady bought them specially to light the lamps when she moved into the building.
.
This is a custom that also exists in Nandu. Even if there are electric lights now, if there are elderly people at home, when they move into a new house, they will light a kerosene lamp with red paper in the living room or other places.
The old lady was sitting on the head of the bed leaning against the bedrail, smiling as she watched Guaiguai crawling around on the hard bed. Chen Juanhua had already said good night to Guaiguai, but did not leave immediately. She stood beside the bed with the same smile on her face.
, eyes fixed on Guaiguai.
Bai Zhi glanced around the room and said to Guaguai: "Guaguai, stop making trouble and go to bed with your mother-in-law. Mother-in-law will get up early tomorrow to buy pork and cook meat porridge for you to eat."
"I know, mom, good night~" The little guy said so, but he was still crawling excitedly, and his hands and knees landed on the bed board, making a thumping sound.
Guaiguai's intention to drive people away was already very obvious, and Bai Zhi could naturally hear it. Looking at the cheerful old lady, she shook her head, turned around and left the room.
As soon as she left, Chen Juanhua followed her, leaving the old lady and Guaiguai alone in the room.
"Zu, I am a puppy~"
Obediently crawled to the old lady's side, and after saying this happily, she barked twice. After raising a dog, she learned how to bark like a dog and it would no longer just be barking. She was good at imitating and worshiped Yuanbao as her teacher.
The barking of a breeding dog can be easily captured and learned perfectly.
After the dog barked, she crawled around on the bed again, making the old lady very happy.
"Exactly the same as your dad when he was a kid!" The old lady wiped the corners of her eyes, she was about to burst into tears from laughter.
Obediently was stunned for a moment, then crawled back to the old lady and sat down next to her. His big eyes were bright and he said, "Zu, my dad is also a puppy~"
"Your dad is not a little puppy. He is a big puppy. He is seven or eight years old. He is still crawling around on my bed with your second uncle and third uncle like you are now, teasing your little one who just learned to crawl at that time.
My fourth uncle."
The old lady had a smile on her face. This bed was quite old. She had moved from an old mud-brick house to a red-brick building, and then to the new building now. When she added furniture to the new house, Su Qinghe persuaded her to change it.
She doesn't agree with the new bed or cabinets.
She has been frugal all her life, and the bed and cabinet are still usable, so she is naturally reluctant to throw them away. More importantly, the old man asked someone to make this bed for her when she slept in separate rooms, and the cabinet was a dowry given to her by her parents.
, they are all deceased relatives, and they are still remembered by her, which means a lot to her.
After obediently listening to the old lady's words, he tilted his head and thought for a moment, then said: "When my brother can crawl, I will also bring him to play~"
The old lady was very happy, "Then I'll wait for you to bring your brother here!"
Who would have thought that her bed could allow two generations of children to crawl around on it. Alas, the old man passed away early. If his bed had not been burned down, it would have witnessed the growth of three generations of children.
The old lady took a look at the wooden bed, which was of good quality, and wondered whether she should pray to gods and Buddhas more so that she could live for many more years, get married and have children, and then take her children to play on this bed.
?
Old man, you have to hold on, old lady, if I can live to that age, you won't be able to hold on anymore.
Obediently followed the old lady's gaze and glanced at the wooden bed. At this glance, I discovered something extraordinary. The light from the ceiling lamp shining through the mosquito net into the bed was already dim, but with the bright and sharp
With his eyes, Guigui noticed some blurred "paintings" on the bed rails on three sides.
She crawled over to the dog and stared at it with wide eyes for a long time, then excitedly turned to the old lady and said: "Zu, there is a dog here~"
The old lady smiled and said, "Not only are there dogs, but there are also pigs and birds. They were all painted by your father and your second uncle, third uncle, and fourth uncle."
That is to say, the house has been rebuilt. If the rooms in the old building have whitewashed walls, there are many "masterpieces" by the four Su Qinghe brothers.
Guaiguai was even more excited. She had entered the old lady's room before. The door of the old lady's room was either ajar or ajar during the day, but there was only a hard wooden bed and an old cabinet in the room. She didn't feel that
What's fun is that when playing hide-and-seek, he will run in and crawl under the bed to hide.
The bottom of this wooden bed is higher than other beds in the house. She can easily climb in without lying down, and the space is also large. It is not as cramped as hiding under other beds, even if she looks up while lying on her stomach.
It will touch the bottom of the bed.
She had never thought that there were these "treasures" on the old lady's bed. She started looking at the bed rails at the head of the bed, then the wooden rails on the inside of the bed, and finally at the end of the bed. She really drew a lot of small animals, although they were basically
The handwriting is all blurry, and some of them can't be identified anymore.
She was probably concentrating all the time, even guessing what kind of small animal it was, which was really draining her mental energy. She yawned again and again, as if to remind her that her battery was about to run out.
Without the old lady's instructions, she crawled to lie down on her own, leaning on her own little pillow, and pulled a corner of the quilt to cover her belly.
"Zu, I'm going to sleep. You can sing and coax me~"
"Okay!" The old lady covered Guaiguai with the quilt and sang the only lullaby she knew, "The moonlight shines on the earth, shrimp boy, please fall into bed obediently..."
Before she finished singing a song, Guaiguai fell asleep. The old lady hurriedly lowered her voice and insisted on finishing the whole song. Only then did she look at Guaiguai's peaceful and cute appearance, and her eyebrows were filled with joy, which was so thick that she couldn't get rid of it.
open.
This little baby is really easy to coax, unlike Ah He and Chi when they were little, when she would even lull themselves to sleep by singing, and they were still chattering like ghosts, and they would still crawl around after she fell asleep.
They would crawl over her body and sometimes even crawl over her body, making her unable to sleep.
She didn't know how long she had been watching before she felt sleepy. The old lady closed the door and turned off the lights. Unlike Su Qinghe who would leave two bedside lamps on, she only turned on the ceiling lamp on the ceiling.
, it was dark in the room as soon as I closed the door.
In the midsummer of June, the moonlight is bright tonight, shrouding Shuangtang Village like a gauze. The gentle mountain breeze blows the moonlight into the room from the window, and the curtains that are pulled to one side dance lightly with the fine stitches on one side.
The old lady didn't turn on any other lights, and the room was brightly illuminated by the moonlight. She stepped on the moonlight as usual, staggered back to the bed and lay down gently. After a while, there were occasional loud and small bursts of insect chirping.
In the middle, two calm breathing sounds, one large and one small, could be faintly heard.
Just like the old days.
Life is endless from generation to generation, and the river and the moon look alike every year.
