The layout of the back room is almost exactly the same as a few years later, the same layout, the same old furniture, the same smell, and even the family portrait on the table is the same as Xiao Chen's memory!
As if noticing Xiao Chen looking at the photo on the table, Liu Qingyan's eyes flashed a trace of unnaturalness and sadness, and walked over quietly to cover it with his body.
Xiao Chen shifted his gaze, no longer attached to the photo, and even deliberately avoided it, he knew what this meant to Liu Qingyan?
It may be a pain that you can't let go of for a lifetime!
Xiao Chen smiled and changed the topic, "That... Qingyan, do you have a mobile phone at home?
"No. Didn't..." "
Landline?"
"None either."
"Is there a public phone in the village?"
"No..."
Xiao Chen couldn't help but have a headache, he should have thought a long time ago, in the last life, even in 2020, my mother-in-law did not have a basic communication tool such as a mobile phone, so how could there be in this 2014?
The reason why there is no is all because the mother-in-law is lonely and alone, and there are really no relatives and friends to contact!
"That... Clear Face.... I'm going out, I have to find a phone call to my mom, I'll be home later today! Xiao
Chen suddenly realized that he sent Liu Qingyan home, isn't the "task" completed? Why did you stay and eat again?
Now it's too late to leave, so I have to hurry to report it.
Farewell to Liu Qingyan, Xiao Chen went out and went straight to Li Gang's house, Li Gang is Xiao Chen's cousin, but also his mother Li Lan's cousin, but also settled in this village for decades, Xiao Chen has lived in the city since he was a child, and the most looking forward to every holiday is to come to Li Gang's house to play.
Thanks to this, Xiao Chen will not get lost when walking with his eyes closed now.
The village was not large, and a few minutes later, Xiao Chen knocked on the door of Li Gang's house.
After a cacophony, the door slowly opened.
"Who!" Li Gang's unique big voice was deafening.
Xiao Chen smiled helplessly, he had long been accustomed to Li Gang's "exaggerated" voice.
"Uncle! It's me Xiao Chen! "
Huh? Xiaochen! Why do you remember to come to your uncle's house in the middle of the night? Come on in! Have you eaten? Li Gang originally thought that he was a neighbor in the village, but who knew that after opening the door, he found that it was Xiao Chen, and hurriedly let Xiao Chen enter the house.
Sure enough, Li Gang's family was about to eat, and Xiao Chen refused Li Gang's invitation and proposed to call Li Lan.
"Hello? Xiao Gang! Why are you calling me? I'm dying. Xiao Chen, this dead child hasn't come home yet, I'm dying, let's say it quickly, what's the matter with you?
Li Lan on the other end of the phone looked a little impatient, obviously because Xiao Chen's "disappearance" made Li Lan a little restless.
Xiao Chen touched his nose and felt bad in his heart, and when Li Lan finished his output for a while, he whispered, "Mom!" It's me! "
Xiao family.
Xiao Aiguo and the two faced a table of delicious food but did not have half an appetite, Xiao Chen came back late, the old two only felt that Xiao Chen was greedy for fun at first, and gradually an hour... Two hours passed, and the two of them panicked, and the food on the table and the steaming rice in the bowl became cold.
Li Lan, who received the call, was originally a little surprised that Li Gang called, how could he not see his iconic big voice, and then he directly exploded when he heard Xiao Chen's voice!
"Why did you little rabbit cub run to your cousin's house, and you didn't say a word to us, and you didn't bring your mobile phone, do you know what time it is?"
"Hurry up and get me back!"
As soon as Li Lan heard that Xiao Chen went to his cousin's house and confirmed that Xiao Chen would not be in danger, the few maternal love immediately disappeared, and his violent temper suddenly came up.
Xiao Chen listened quietly, did not dare to have half a rebuttal, he knew that he was indeed a little excessive, it was now more than seven o'clock in the evening, how could he have arrived home before six o'clock in the past, Li Lan should also scold a few words in a hurry!
"Alas! Xiaochen! Are you okay, mom doesn't blame you, adolescence, it's understandable, you don't have to run to your cousin's house to hide, it's not a big deal, am I so pedantic in your eyes?
Li Lan's words changed, and his words revealed a bit of comfort.
Xiao Chen was dumbfounded, who am I? Where am I? What am I doing?
Soul three questions lingered in his heart, if memory serves, he should have come to send Liu Qingyan, and then make a call to report safety, what does it have to do with adolescence? What else to say? Pedantic????
What the hell is this!
Xiao Chen was puzzled in his heart, but he didn't dare to ask more, who knows what mood Li Lan is in now, in case he is in a bad mood, kill him directly, and he will be finished!
"Ahem... Mother! I ride an electric car to take my classmates home, maybe later tonight, or tomorrow morning!
After speaking, Xiao Chen did not dare to ask more, directly hung up the phone, and returned it to Li Gang and his wife, who were watching the play on the side.
"Xiaochen! This ready-made meal, you just stay and eat! Li Gang's wife on the table, that is, Xiao Chen's cousin, said cheerfully, Li Gang's wife
is named Wang Rui, a fat middle-aged woman, ordinary in appearance but very virtuous, very good to Xiao Chen, Xiao Chen was quite sticky to her when she was a child, as soon as she was beaten by Li Lan, as long as Wang Rui was there,
she would run behind Wang Rui.
Li Lan is embarrassed to face Xiao Chen in front of his sister-in-law, Li Lan's temper is irritable, and it will be good after a while, to put it bluntly, he does not remember revenge, and Xiao Chen often escapes because of this.
"I just heard you say that you sent your classmates back, is it from our village?" Li Gang took the mobile phone handed over by Xiao Chen, chewed the freshly peeled peanuts in his mouth and asked a little unexpectedly.
"Well, cousin you should also know, Liu Qingyan, she is my classmate, today is a bit of a special situation, I didn't bring a mobile phone, so..."
Xiao Chen explained with an embarrassed smile, picked up the edamame on the table and began to peel it.
"Hey! Isn't Liu Qingyan Aunt Liu's granddaughter? How can I not know, speaking of which, you loved to play games with Naniko when you were a child!
"You've made people cry, how?" You don't remember?
Li Gang suddenly realized, patted Xiao Chen's shoulder and teased.
"Huh?" Xiao Chen had a question mark on her face, why didn't she remember that she still knew Liu Qingyan, and made her cry? Can I be so bad as a child?
"Hey! The main thing is that you made people cry, and you still don't admit it, and the angry Sister Lan wants to beat you, so I remember this matter! Li Gang tried to help Xiao Chen recall his childhood, but obviously looking at Xiao Chen's expression, it was a failure!
Xiao Chen still didn't have any impression
in his mind: "Forget it!" It doesn't matter, I heard that she is amazing, her academic performance is very good, what about the seedlings of 985? That girl and you are classmates? Seeing that Xiao Chen was not impressed, Li Gang waved his hand and asked with interest.
"Her academic performance is indeed good, your nephew is not bad, undergraduate is appropriate!" Xiao Chen ridiculed that Xiao Chen has not been afraid of his cousin since he was a child, and Li Gang also joked.
"You boy, people 985, you just take a bachelor's degree, wait for Sister Lan to clean you up!"
"But when you talk about Aunt Liu, my heart is upset! Li Gang's voice was low.
"Aunt Liu is such a good person, why is her life so bitter? Fortunately, this is hard work, Qingyan that girl competes to learn well!
Li Gang frowned and took a sip of the wine on the table and said in a deep voice.
The village is full of neighbors, look up and don't see those who look down, who has something to do, the whole village helps, everyone agrees that the most bitter thing in the whole village is except for a neuropathy, that is, Granny Liu's grandmother.
It's not easy for an old lady to pull a little girl!
Everyone sees this in their hearts, who has more and more, they all want to help a little, when it comes to the Liu family, the villagers also shake their heads and sigh!
"All right, cousin! Mother-in-law Liu can also be regarded as bitter, Liu Qingyan went to a big university!
Xiao Chen said against his will, his heart was a little panicked, he knew that Liu Qingyan in the previous life had not been able to go to college at all, and he had just fallen under the big truck after signing up for volunteers.
God knows how Granny Liu survived, the young lost her father, the middle-aged lost her daughter, finally there was hope, and the granddaughter's life was ruthlessly taken away!
Even so, when Xiao Chen saw the old and disfigured Granny Liu, the old man could still look at himself with cloudy eyes, and a bitter smile pulled out at the corner of his mouth, inviting himself to chat with her, the "disaster star"!
Whenever he thought of that scene, Xiao Chen was a little unbearable.
"Xiaochen! Xiaochen! Li Gang stood up, held Xiao Chen's shoulders and shook, Xiao Chen suddenly returned to his senses, staring at Li Gang blankly!
"You boy! Didn't I hear what I said? You don't stay to eat, are you going to Granny Liu?
"Yes! Promised Granny Liu to stay and eat, it's always bad to be untrustworthy!
Xiao Chen said so, Li Gang didn't have much to say and was about to let Xiao Chen leave, when he saw Wang Rui, who had been sitting on the side without speaking, pointing to a plate of braised carp with no chopsticks in the middle of the table, and wanted Xiao Chen to leave.
Looking at Xiao Chen's blank eyes, Wang Rui frowned, sighed, and said:
"You boy, you can't just bring a mouth to eat, the Liu family is more difficult than our family, you kid can eat it,
you don't know how many days of rations to eat their family!"
"Aunt Liu has no pension, so she relies on doing some needlework for the village to feed their grandchildren, you go empty-handed.... Not good!
"Let you bring a dish, the Liu family is difficult, and also make up for Aunt Liu's body!"
"And these steamed buns, you brought them with you!"
Xiao Chen nodded, it was indeed that he had not thought it through!
But for Wang Rui, a cousin, to think of such a point, Xiao Chen was also very moved, and it was really not easy to do this step for a relative who was not related by blood.
Xiao Chen noticed that the only new dish on the entire table was this carp, and the rest were leftovers from the day or the next day!
Xiao Chen nodded, said thank you to his aunt in a muffled voice, and left the Li family with the dishes under the eyes of the couple.
Xiao Chen secretly told himself in his heart that he must not be ungrateful when he is developed.
Sometimes gratitude is not only in the mouth, and family affection is not just said to be expressed, action is the best way, Li Gang's family handed over the only dish on their table to Xiao Chen, Xiao Chen must remember it in his heart!
On the way back, there were no street lights in the village, and on the rough and dark road, Xiao Chen had mixed tastes.
