Chapter 22 22 Being pampered and growing up

At night in the countryside, it is a world of insects.

The moths flutter their wings around the light, the fireflies that accidentally hit them lose their direction, and the mosquitoes move quickly to avoid being swatted and only suck human blood.

Xu Sui has a constitution that attracts mosquitoes, so he couldn't take any precautions. The exposed skin was bitten one after another by mosquito bites, which made it unbearably itchy.

She looked for mosquito coils, but couldn't find a lighter.

Sprayed the whole house with toilet water.

After choking Jiang Ye covered his mouth and coughed, and then sprayed the mosquitoes to save him, he was smoked to death first.

Seeing this, Xu Sui put away the toilet water and looked at Jiang Ye who was left to eat by the enthusiasm, "Do you want to go home first and say something?"

"No, they can guess it." Jiang Ye said.

Xu Sui: "Oh."

Jiang Ye: "Yes."

Xu Sui: "..."

Can't answer the call.

We can't chat for a while.

They hadn't exchanged a few words since the day they changed seats. Now that they were alone, the atmosphere was so awkward that Xu Sui's eyes felt numb.

She said hello and went to the kitchen to help.

Grandpa Zheng and Grandma Zheng are busy in the kitchen outside. In the old-fashioned kitchen, firewood is still used for cooking.

Grandpa and grandma said that the food will be more delicious if it is cooked this way.

The vegetables in the countryside are all grown at home, and the seasonings used for cooking are also made by oneself.

As soon as the lard is heated, the garlic and chili are sautéed and fresh vegetables and seasonings are added, the aroma will spread throughout the house.

It's easy to attract greedy people.

Xu Sui swallowed, broke off the dry branches, and threw them into the fire. The fire was not strong enough, so she added a few more firewood.

Grandma Zheng served out the steaming cabbage, "Why don't you go play with Jiang Ye? Aren't you classmates? It's so boring to be there alone."

Grandpa Zheng chopped the prepared chicken and found a clean towel to wrap around the edge of the cabbage plate. "Nanny, come here, bring this plate to the table."

The two of them exchanged words with each other, and Xu Sui returned to the living room helplessly.

She put the cabbage on the table, put down the towel, moved the cabbage, and touched her ears until her fingers burned.

Jiang Ye looked at her with a slight curl of his lips, "I never saw you when I was a child."

From the same village, the old couple from the Zheng family and the old couple from the Qi family worked together when they were young, and they have a good relationship now that they are old.

Jiang Ye was raised by his grandmother and grandfather in Yuzhou Town until he was five and a half and almost six years old before he was picked up by Qi Wu.

He spent his childhood wandering around the village and town with the village children, growing up.

Eno matured precociously and began to remember things after the age of three.

But he had never seen her on Yuzhou.

Xu Suixin said that he had never seen a normal person. Haven't they never encountered him once in all these years when they returned to Yuzhou Town to visit the elderly?
She turned on the TV and picked a drama for Jiang Ye to watch. The provincial grandmother said he was boring, "I didn't come here until I was seven years old."

When she came to Yuzhou, he went to Yunshu.

Their childhood days on Yuzhou were dramatically missed.

Many years later, during a short vacation, they met again here by chance.

We sat face to face, watched cartoons together, and stayed to eat together.

He looked like he had known him for a long time.

fantastic.

Jiang Ye tasted a mountain cherry that was not of this season. It had a sour taste.

There were also peeled peaches and pears on the table, and even the fried chestnuts were peeled.

The Zheng family cherishes their granddaughter very much.

She was a child who grew up being pampered.

So she is as warm and kind as a little sun.

It was completely different from the world he lived in.

The yellow squares and pink stars in the cartoon are hugging each other, and the picture is warm.

Patrick was moved and cried, "SpongeBob, we are best friends."

Jiang Ye said at this moment: "Xu Sui, when do you plan to change back?"

Xu Sui pretended not to hear and stared at the TV in silence.The rumors have died down, but they have reached the ears of most people, and everyone will assume that they are having an affair.

Changing it back would not do Jiang Ye any good, nor would it do her any good.

When they sit at the same table again, others notice that they are too close, talking to too many people, and they are about to be invited as parents before they fall in love. This is a big misunderstanding.

If the situation develops again and reaches the teacher's ears...

She didn't want to be called for a conversation, she didn't want to be called a parent.

Not long ago, she swore that Zheng Jingyan would not fall in love prematurely.

Eat sweet and glutinous chestnuts if you have lost your appetite.

Xu Sui felt a little unwilling from the bottom of his heart.

·
The table is full of sumptuous dishes, and the bowls are piled high.

Xu Sui dodged the big chicken legs from Grandma Zheng, but failed to avoid the rice that Grandpa Zheng added.

Jiang Ye didn't fare much better.

After eating for a long time, there was no shortage of food in the bowl.There is a kind of hunger that makes your grandparents think you are hungry.

After dinner, Grandma Zheng called Xu Sui to see Jiang Ye off.

The moon hung high on the towering trees, and the leaves were rustling.Frogs croaked from the field, and fireflies held small lanterns and emitted faint light spots flying in the grass.

The road in the countryside was uneven. Xu Sui was holding a rechargeable flashlight and didn't pay attention to his steps, so he almost fell.

Jiang Ye, with quick eyes and quick hands, gave her a hand.

He smiled, "Assassinate me tonight?"

This was a joke because she couldn't even walk steadily and was talking nonsense.

Xu Sui heard the word "weak chicken" from his words.

She stood firm and walked slower, "Just kidding, this road is not easy to walk, so be careful."

Jiang Ye stopped and raised his head.

Xu Sui followed his gaze and she had never noticed the top of her head at night in the countryside before.

The dark night sky is full of stars and the stars are shining brightly.

A starry sky as far as the eye can see.

It was a scene she had only seen in anime.

"Just send it here." Jiang Ye turned on the flashlight on his mobile phone and walked forward.

Xu Sui chased after him and gave him the flashlight in his hand, "Use this to make it brighter so you can see the road clearly."

Their fingertips touched, and she jerked her hand away.

Jiang Ye twitched the corners of his lips, "You don't have to keep a distance from me. Are we not friends?"

Well, friend.

Just friends.

There are many trees in Yuzhou Town. During the hottest period, there are big trees that provide shade, so you don’t get much sunlight.

In the autumn evening, the wind blew and it became a little cold.

She said she was sending him off, but Xu Sui didn't send him far. She didn't even know which direction his grandma's house was.

Xu Sui arrived home in less than 2 minutes.

The sound of grandparents talking could be heard in the house.

"The daughter of the Qi family is promising and has married into a wealthy family, but you think it's of no use? Have you come back to see your parents once?"

"Isn't her son back?"

"Yes, a mother is not as filial to her son as she is. Since Qi Wu went to college and left this town, when was the longest time she stayed back? She got pregnant outside and gave birth to a child before she was married. Leave it to them and nothing will happen."

"When the child is grown up and becomes sensible and well-behaved, he takes it away. When he is in his sixties and misses his grandson, he has to carry his things to the city to see him. He comes back within two days! At least he can leave his old mother to enjoy the happiness. Ah! I heard that a few years ago, children were not allowed to come back to see the elderly. Tell me, what did she do? "

"Old lady, we have no control over other people's housework."

"What a sin! Fortunately Jiang Ye is a good boy and didn't follow his mother's will."

……

Xu Sui stood at the door and didn't go in.

The lights in the yard cast a cold white light, which was desolate and lonely.
