Malanhua's son Bai Zhiqiang is coming to Pujiang with his wife. After joining the two old people, they go to Zhejiang together. The two families meet formally to discuss marriage matters.
Xiaobai got the news, so he worked very hard to draw a picture to give to the bride he had never met.
She was still thinking about the new clothes in the wardrobe, which were given to her by Boss Zhang. There were two pieces. She wore one of them, a bright red wool coat, but only once, on the day when she went to film "The Hidden Corner"
, and was later put away by my aunt and hung in the closet.
Xiaobai especially likes this dress, it is red and festive. Her aunt told her that she can wear this dress on the day when her cousin and the bride come, and she can also wear it as a flower girl when her cousin gets married in the future.
She would open the wardrobe every day, look up at the hanging new clothes with her little head raised, thinking about it in her heart, longing for the bride to come quickly.
The child prepared two paintings for the newlyweds. One was about scattering flowers to them on a small white boat. This was painted by herself, all based on her own imagination. The other was created by Zhang Tan, and then
Wu Shiying taught her to draw.
She liked both paintings very much, but if she had to compare, she would prefer the first one, because in that painting she was a flower girl spreading flowers, while in the second one, she was just a little girl with wings.
Angel.
Little angels are definitely not as good as little flower girls, she thinks.
Xiaobai not only prepared two paintings, but also planned to give two big red envelopes. One day she saw her uncle and aunt discussing giving red envelopes to the bride. After listening for a long time, she also felt that she wanted to give red envelopes to the bride.
Auntie said she didn't need it because she was still a child, but Xiaobai didn't have confidence that the bride would like her, so she secretly prepared two red envelopes. She asked Jiang Bin to buy the red envelopes for her. She didn't pay, she just gave them
She asked for a pancake fruit. She wanted to give two, but Jiang Bin said that one was enough and he wanted change for her, so she didn't ask for it. She felt that she had taken advantage.
Money? There was no money. It was with her aunt. Her aunt wouldn't give her any money, saying that she would lose it because she was a child. So there was no other way. Xiaobai wrote a "1" on the paper and circled three after it.
"0". I followed the same pattern, prepared two copies, hid them in my small satchel, and waited for my cousin and bride to arrive.
"Xiao Bai~~~ Move this out, be careful, don't run, walk slowly, the floor is wet and slippery." Malanhua was cleaning, and asked Xiao Bai to move her little stool out and put it in the corridor
inside.
"Hey, look at me." Xiaobai ran forward with the stool on his shoulders, leaving a series of small footprints on the floor.
Bai Jianping, who was mopping the floor, looked at it speechlessly and said dissatisfiedly: "What the hell, Xiaobai, why are you running around? Look at you, I'm mopping the floor for nothing, are you kidding me?"
Xiaobai put the small stool in place, turned around and looked around, laughing: "Auntie asked me to do this, you asked auntie to instigate it."
Of course Bai Jianping would not go looking for Ma Lanhua. He could not defeat Lao Ma and would only bring humiliation to himself.
"Don't come in, just play outside."
Today the house is being cleaned to welcome the bride and groom. Many items in the house have been moved to the corridor and are now piled up.
"Don't you want me to work?" Xiaobai asked.
Bai Jianping erased the small footprints left by Xiaobai and said, "No, it's wet and cold in the house. You can play outside and bask in the sun."
Xiaobai lay on the edge of the door and said, "That's so embarrassing."
Bai Jianping smiled and said: "Hey, you are so polite, why are you embarrassed?"
Xiaobai: "You are an old man, and I am a little friend. My little friend wants to help the old man."
Bai Jianping's smile suddenly disappeared, and he waved his hands irritably, telling Xiaobai to get out.
Get out of here, get out of here.
"Ba Shi~~~" Xiao Bai climbed up to Bai Jianping's special broken rocking chair and lay on it rocking. The sun was shining on him, making him warm, like his mother's arms. Hey, his mother's arms are so squeaky.
I don’t know, but it’s a good bus, comfortable and comfortable.
After a while, Xiaobai shouted: "Uncle, can I sing to you?"
A voice came from the room: "Yes, can I order a song?"
"If you want it, you can order it."
"Please come and sing "Ma Lanhua"."
"..."
"Are you yelling? Sing."
"Uncle, you are a black-ass, do you want my ass to blossom?"
"What are you afraid of? My uncle is supporting you. What are you afraid of? If your aunt beats you, I will be the first to disagree. Look at my skills, and you will know why I call you Bai Jianping."
"Why?"
When he said this, Xiaobai had climbed down from the rocking chair, lying on the edge of the door, and asked curiously.
Bai Jianping mopped the floor and said, "I fought wild boars and wolves when I was young. Do you know what wild boars and wolves are?"
"You know, the oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooove?
"That's not the case. I just scared her so that she wouldn't dare to hit you."
"Auntie won't hit me. Auntie loves me so much, and I love auntie so much."
This was very abnormal. Bai Jianping felt it immediately and realized that the situation was not good. He immediately changed his words: "You two are good, I can rest assured. Your aunt used to be a flower in the village. Did you know that she was a little fairy back then?"
."
A little fairy made Xiaobai laugh.
Bai Jianping also laughed, and turned around very naturally and looked behind him. Sure enough! Lao Ma was standing behind him.
"Little fairy, how are you?"
"What's so cool about beating Big Big Wolf and Peggy? Always bring it up."
"Mo Hezi, Mo Hezi, let's play with my little friends."
Malanhua let him go for the time being, and Bai Jianping breathed a sigh of relief.
The three of them worked hard all morning and finally made the simple home look brand new. They tore off the stickers and paintings on the walls and replaced them with new ones. The hole in the broken sofa was also filled, and Malanhua patched it up.
The cute little bear is there, but now no one can recognize that there was once a hole there, and Little White always fell into it.
The only thing that hadn't been torn off was the poster of Su Lan behind the door, which Xiao Bai was sworn to protect.
In the afternoon, Bai Jianping painted the wall and removed all the stains on the wall. Now the wall has a brand new look. The color is not only white, but also pink. The pink one is the bathroom, and the latex paint was chosen at Xiao Bai's request.
Because of this, Guawazi ran to the bathroom again and again to look at it, and he couldn't stop wowing.
These latex paints are from good brands. For Bai Jianping, they cost a lot of money. They are odorless and pollution-free.
Malanhua called Xiaobai to her and told her, "I'm warning you now, kid, you can't draw on the wall in the future, do you understand?"
Xiaobai often draws and writes on the walls at home. Over the years, it has almost become her drawing board. Before refreshing, the walls below one meter were dazzlingly painted, but above one meter, they were clean and distinct.
Xiaobai nodded, he would be a stupid kid if he didn't agree.
"You go and play."
Xiaobai ran to the small bed and looked at the calligraphy and paintings on the wall beside her bed. Fortunately, the ones here were preserved.
In the living room, Bai Jianping put away the brushes and paint buckets and said to Malanhua: "One more thing, why don't you paint the wall next to Xiaobai's bed? It's dirty there too."
"Leave her in your thoughts."
On that small piece of wall, there was the word "Mom" written by Xiaobai for the first time, and Ma Lanhua once sat there and shed tears.
After being busy for a long time, everyone was having dinner. Xiaobai asked his cousin and the bride when they would arrive. Auntie said it would be the day after tomorrow.
"Our home is so beautiful. The bride will definitely like it." Xiao Bai said sincerely.
Malanhua smiled bitterly and looked around. Compared to the past, her home was indeed completely new, but it was small and crude. This could not be changed. Xiaoqiang and Xiaoyang might not come to this home when they came to Pujiang.
Although they may not come to the house, the two of them still cleaned carefully all day long, just in case.
She turned her head and discussed with Bai Jianping whether there were any better hotels nearby and let Xiao Yang stay in the hotel.
Xiaobai asked strangely: "Are you staying in a hotel? Come to our house."
