Siheyuan: There are three little cats at home

Chapter 108 Grandma's Words
It was evening, and the weather suddenly turned cold. Holding the handlebars of the bicycle in both hands, Xu Qing walked back to the hospital alone along the street with few pedestrians.

Sijiucheng is still enveloped in a strong New Year atmosphere, and Xu Qing can hear the sound of children setting off firecrackers from time to time along the way.

In fact, at noon, when the weather is slightly warmer, there are more and louder firecrackers.

But Xu Qing didn't notice because he was busy going to the hospital.

At this time, the streets that had been busy all day gradually disappeared from the noise and laughter.

Now he heard it, although he didn't see the children playing firecrackers, but the sound was very clear, every beat was like a drumbeat, falling into his heart - clearly and clearly telling him that he was already eighteen.

When he returned to the alley entrance of the compound, Xu Qing saw the second uncle and the second aunt taking their two sons away from the relatives and friends who came to their home today to pay New Year's greetings.

There were a lot of people at the entrance of the alley, so Xu Qing stopped his bicycle for a while, not because his riding skills were bad and he couldn't avoid it.

It's because they are afraid that naughty children will bump into them on their own initiative.

When Liu Haizhong saw Xu Qing, he reached out and called the children who were playing around to him.

Xu Qing nodded to the second uncle, then quickly rode his bike into the cigarette alley.

After returning to his house, grandma and the three little ones were waiting for him to come back for dinner.

When the little girl and Xu Fengming saw their elder brother entering the house, they immediately followed Xu Aiguo and ran into the kitchen to pack dinner on the kang in the front room.

The grandma, whose feet were bound, helped Xu Qing sweep his clothes with a feather duster, then turned around and went into the kitchen.

However, because of the bound feet and the fact that he is getting older, his legs and feet are not as agile as the three little guys.

Xu Qing hurriedly took off the scarf around his neck, walked to the old man in two steps, and walked into the kitchen with his arms.

After bringing the food to the front room, Xu Qing asked the little girl and third brother to eat with grandma first, while he and Aiguo scooped up rice soup from the bottom of the pot in the kitchen.

Grandma didn't want to leave the kitchen, so Xu Qing had to let the little girl and Xu Fengming coax her out.

After all, today's dinner is made by the old man!
Sitting on the kang, the little girl and Xu Fengming impatiently reached out to grab the meat rolls that grandma had steamed for them, and ate them with big mouthfuls.

Xu Fengming is usually naughty, but today he took the initiative to stuff a meat roll into grandma's hand and said:

"Grandma, eat quickly, too."

The little girl was chewing the meat roll, her little face was full of joy, she leaned against the old man's side, muttering:
"Grandma, your steamed meat rolls are so delicious!"

At this time, Xu Qing and his second brother Aiguo scooped out the rice soup from the pot and brought it to the Kang.

Xu Aiguo quickly placed the first bowl next to his grandma.

The old man looked at the three grandsons and granddaughters kindly, his eyes were full of love, but there was a hint of sadness in an instant.

After dinner, the old man took out money wrapped in old newspapers and gave Xu Qing and the three little ones lucky money.

During the day, Xu Qing was so busy that he was not in the house and went to the hospital all the time.

Grandma had no choice but to take out the money at this time and give it to them together.

After the three little guys took the money, they sweetly said in unison: "Thank you grandma!"

The little girl even held the old man's arms with both hands, as cute as a little milk cat.

Xu Qingze shook his head and said: "Grandma, I don't want it. I can get a wife soon, so I don't need the new year's money."

The old man insisted on giving it, "Here, when your father was not married, I would still give it to you. When you get married and have children, grandma will give you the lucky money that should be given to you at that time."

Xu Qing didn't know whether to laugh or cry, so he had to take the money and said: "Thank you, grandma!"

In addition, the old man also gave Xu Qing all the untouched money that Xu Qing asked her to take back to the countryside last year for her grandfather's medical treatment.

"Your parents paid for this with their lives, and grandma will keep it all for you.

Your grandfather was treated by your second father and your third aunt. I dug out the money every night and sat with your grandfather under the kerosene lamp to look at it. I thought, I would give it to you when I come to the city again.

You have to take care of your younger brothers and sisters, and you have to go to work, and you are approaching the age of getting married. This money is more useful to you than to us. "

Xu Qing didn't speak, and his brothers and sisters didn't fight, they all snuggled up beside grandma.

It was quiet outside the house, and it was quiet inside the house. The entire Sijiu City seemed to have suddenly become quiet.

On the morning of the fifth day of the first lunar month, as soon as Xu Qing opened his eyes, he heard that his grandma was already busy making breakfast in the kitchen.

He quickly got out of bed, got dressed, washed his hands, and went into the kitchen.

At eight o'clock, Xu Qing finished breakfast with grandma and the three little ones, then packed the reserved meals for grandpa and second dad into lunch boxes, and prepared to ride to the hospital by bike.

As a result, as soon as Xu Qing came out of the house, he saw his old classmate Ma Jiefang, wearing a new suit of blue cloth and riding a bicycle, coming to the courtyard with great joy.

"Brother Qingzi, have a great New Year!"

"happy New Year!"

Xu Qing held the net bag for the lunch box in his left hand, took out a cigarette with his right hand, and handed it to Ma Jiefang.

Ma Jiefang parked his bicycle in the middle of the yard, took the cigarette and said with a smile:
"Brother Qingzi, after the factory starts working in a few days, I will enter the factory, and then we two brothers can be together again."

After Ma Jiefang finished speaking, he frowned slightly when he saw the net bag in Xu Qing's hand.

"Brother Qingzi, it's Chinese New Year's Eve, who are you bringing the lunch box to?"

Xu Qing briefly talked about the hospitalization of his grandfather.

The smile on Ma Jiefang's face faded and he patted the bicycle path:

"Brother Qingzi, let's go, I'll go with you!"

Xu Qing waved his hand and said: "Jiefang, you come into my room to warm up, and I will come back after delivering the meal later."

At this moment, the three little ones helped grandma and walked out of the house.

The old man doesn't know Ma Jiefang, nor has he met him, because he usually lives in the countryside and rarely comes to the city.

But all three little guys know each other.

Ma Jiefang would come to the courtyard to see his elder brother from time to time.

The little girl, Xu Fengming and Xu Aiguo were already familiar with him.

Xu Fengming ran to Ma Jiefang, grinned and said, "Brother Jiefang, happy New Year!"

Ma Jiefang reached out and grabbed two big white rabbit toffees from the padded jacket, and handed them to Xu Fengming.

At the same time, he walked to the little girl and Xu Aiguo and gave them two pills each.

Seeing that Ma Jiefang was very kind to his grandson, the old man hurriedly let him sit in the house.

Ma Jiefang shook his head and said with a smile: "Grandma, I have to go to the hospital with Brother Qingzi and be back later."

Xu Qing smiled wryly when he heard that Ma Jiefang was not following him.

Stepping back to the door of the house, he said to Ma Jiefang: "Jiefang, you stay in my house and chat with my grandma and my younger siblings. I will go alone."

Ma Jiefang scratched his head, thought for a moment, and nodded.Standing at the door of the house, the three little ones and grandma watched Xu Qing ride away.
