As soon as I returned to my room, Auntie Xinyun chased me and knocked on the door. She kept saying, "Qiaoqiao, please open the door. Auntie will talk to you. Don't say anything angry."
It breaks my aunt's heart.
I pulled the quilt and covered my head directly. I only wanted to reply to her with five words: "Am I familiar with you?"
But asking myself, I also know that what I just said was angry. I just wanted to stimulate An Qi, just like when I was a child. I didn’t want Zhuo Jing to give me the phone, but if An Qi wanted to snatch it and mess with me, then I would definitely do it.
Gotta have it.
After a while, Aunt Xinyun, maybe because she saw that I wouldn't open the door for her, she gave up and left with a harsh word. The harsh words were, if you really go, don't blame Auntie for not recognizing me in the future.
You niece!
I took the quilt off my face and laughed twice. Am I afraid? No one has recognized me since I was a child. Even my mother doesn't want to recognize me. Would I care if an aunt recognizes me?
‘Dong dong~’
The door was knocked twice more from outside, but I didn't answer. I was thinking about what tricks this aunt was going to pull. Should she build my house now, or how much money would she give me?
"Jiaolong, are you asleep?"
When I heard my grandpa's voice, I stood up and said, "No." After saying that, I stepped forward and opened the door. Grandpa stood outside the door with a bag in his hand: "Grandpa wants to say a few words to you."
I nodded, followed my grandpa into the house, went back and closed the door, pulled up a chair and sat across from my grandpa, looking at him: "What's wrong, grandpa, is the bed uncomfortable to sleep on? I'm waiting for a few months."
, we will go back after the house is built."
Grandpa glanced at me, put the bag aside, and took my arm: "Jiaolong, your arm is blue. It must have been beaten by Xiaobao."
"Oh." I glanced at him and smiled nonchalantly: "It's okay, kid, just treat him as if he was making trouble with me."
Grandpa sighed: "You said this is your parents' house, but in the end, it's better to be comfortable outside. Even if I take you to stay in a hotel, you won't be so angry."
I lowered my eyes and said, "Grandpa, what are you talking about? I already knew this would happen to my parents. Let's go back after the house is built."
"It can't be that fast to build a house. It will take at least a year and a half. Grandpa can't see you running around like this every day. I can see it. Your mother really can't tolerate you, but you
Don’t blame your mother, she’s like that, and the same is true for your grandma, she’s just stubborn, and once she gets into a dead end, she won’t be able to pull back even the cows.”
I lowered my eyes and didn't answer, but I felt my nose was sore: "Grandpa, can we go out and live? I don't want to be here."
Grandpa took my hand and said, "It's hard to live with your dad when we go out. Your dad is pretty good to us. Jiaolong, when you grow up, you have your own ideas. Grandpa has already thought about where you want to go."
, you can go wherever you want, and we can live a happy life. Grandpa is old and is the same everywhere, but you are different. You are young and there is still a long way to go."
I raised my eyes, looked at my grandpa and shook my head, "Grandpa, I don't understand what you mean."
Grandpa let out a long sigh and put the bag he brought with him into my hand; "I've thought about it. You and your uncle can go to a big city. He'll be nice to you. At least you won't have to go there."
It seems like you are inferior to others here. Your little uncle told me that he will take good care of you no matter whether you are that noble person or not."
I shook my head: "No, grandpa, my grandma won't let me go to the city."
Grandpa looked at me and said, "Your grandma told me the same thing. If we had stayed in the village, we wouldn't have gone. But our house was burned down. I see you feel uncomfortable here with your parents. Grandpa feels sorry for you.
Your grandma may be afraid that you will suffer hardship in a big city, but if you want to see a doctor in the future, why don't you go to a big city, and you can't just stay in this small county town all your life? We are phoenixes and we have to fly out, right?"
I didn't answer, thinking that what grandma said was inappropriate. If grandma were here, she would definitely not agree.
"And the most important thing is, grandpa thought about it. Your grandma said that he would change your life. If your life has been changed, then it should be fine. Otherwise, why would you change your life? Go ahead, since this is an opportunity
, then you go and give it a try, once you really become someone’s noble person, maybe you won’t have to endure hardships and enjoy happiness in the future.”
Grandpa looked at me and said, while opening the bag: "You have to take Lao Xian'er's ranking with you. Grandpa also picked up these few copper coins in the house. You may still be able to use them, and there is this ginseng."
You also need to take it with you. Your grandma told me before that this ginseng can save your life in the future. As for your grandma’s ranking, I will use my house to support it. I miss her so I can be with her.
say something."
After listening to my grandfather's words, I raised my eyes and looked at him: "Grandpa, let's go together, I won't let you be here by yourself."
Grandpa smiled helplessly: "Everything in the house is burned down. I have to apply for certificates and build a house here. You can take some time in the big city. Once the house is built, if you want to come back, we will go back to the countryside."
Go, grandpa will be fine here. I’m getting older and no one dares to say anything about me. Your mother is my daughter.”
"Then... I'll come back as soon as the house is built." I was a little shaken. Everything about this house made me unhappy. I didn't want to stay for a minute. I wanted to leave just as urgently as I did nine years ago.
It's just that that time I was going home, but this time, the road ahead is uncertain.
Grandpa nodded and hugged me: "Okay, Jiaolong, don't cause trouble to your little uncle there. If we weren't that noble person, we would just play there for two days and try to find a job. I'm happy."
Let's just do it. If you're not happy, you can come back to see grandpa. If that doesn't work, grandpa will take you out to live with you, and you won't be able to live. Grandpa just wants you to live a better life."
My eyes were so sore that I kept nodding and patting my grandfather's somewhat hunched back: "Grandpa, you should also take care of your health. Let them build the house quickly. I will come back when it is finished."
Grandpa let go of his hand and glanced at me, then stretched out his hand to wipe my tears: "Don't cry, don't cry. I heard your grandma say that the formation was set up, and it would break when you cry. Don't cry, it's all this."
Kiss your parents."
I hummed and said, "It's okay, grandpa. Grandma said I can't go out crying. I won't cry when I go to the city tomorrow morning. It's a happy thing not to live here. I won't cry."
…
After my grandpa left, I got into the quilt, and my thoughts were still fighting. I didn’t know whether to really go or not. I was worried and depressed here, but when I left, it was my grandma who followed me since I was a child.
You can't talk about it until it's too big.
I didn't sleep well at night. I felt vaguely that my grandma opened the door and came in. She sat beside my bed, reached out and touched my head, and said: "Jiaolong, listen to grandma and don't go to the market."
Here, don’t go there..."
"Why..." I responded vaguely.
"It's dangerous." Grandma said and stood up, "Jiaolong, grandma is going back, you have to remember what she said."
"Grandma, don't go, Grandma, Grandma!!" I sat up. The sun was so bright that I couldn't open my eyes. It turned out that I forgot to close the curtains last night. I looked at the empty space beside me and gently moved my hands.
He caressed her and said, "Grandma, are you really here?" (To be continued)
