"That's right! I'll invite, I'll invite, Lily and the twins, go to the entrance of the village to pick you up, Miss Ranran, and you must invite Miss Ranran to our house!"
Thinking of Lin Ranran carrying the big and small bags in his hands every time he came back to pay New Year's greetings, everyone's hearts became hot, and they made up their minds to bring Lin Ranran to their home. And those who hurried to bring their own children here, Lin Ranran is very generous in giving the New Year's money!
However, Lin Ranran had already turned into the grandpa and grandma's house from a small gravel road.
These are two mud-tiled houses surrounded by a low courtyard wall. It was the same as the dilapidated house that Lin Ranran lived in. The outside room was the living room and the inside room was the bedroom. The bedroom didn't even have a window. The kitchen is open-air, and a roof was built at a corner of the yard, a pot and stove were built, a pair of chopsticks sharpened from bamboo and several jars of salt and condiments were placed.
Lin Ranran stood at the door, frowning as she looked at the broken yard. Xiaojing already ran in familiarly, pushed open the chaimen and shouted loudly: "Grandpa, grandma, here we come!"
The room didn't even have a door, only a worn cloth curtain was hung, and there was a thick straw mat outside to keep warm. After a while, the Caodianzi was lifted first, and a small hand raised the curtain again, revealing a little face that was dark and red: "Sister Ranran! Grandpa, sister Ranran is here!"
There were two coughs from behind the curtain, and a tall, thin old man with gray hair came out. It was Grandpa Lin Wenxing.
"Xiaojing Xiaoqiu, why are you here?" Lin Wenxing's face beamed with joy: "Of course you are here too. Hurry up, it's cold outside, come in and sit down."
"Grandpa and Grandma!" Lin Ranran shouted with a smile, and the three children followed suit.
Lin Honghong excitedly took Lin Ranran's hand, greeted Xiaoqiu Xiaojing, and several of them entered the room together. There was not even a place to stay in the room, and there was still a smell of medicine and the peculiar turbid smell of old people.
Mrs. Lin Tian sat on the bed with a quilt on her legs and a padded jacket on her body, and said with a smile: "Of course, come here quickly and let me have a look. They told you not to come. In such a cold day, every year, the little girl Qiu Xiaojing is with me to endure the cold."
Lin Ranran put down the big and small bags, and they couldn't help but say something like "too wasteful". Mrs. Lin Tian hurriedly took out a clay pot from the cabinet next to her bed, and took out a package of tightly wrapped things.
Open several layers of newspapers, inside are seven or eight pieces of fruit candy, a bag of dried persimmons and a few pieces of sesame cakes, the old man smiled and said: "Come on, Xiaoqiu Xiaojing, this is specially left for you by Grandma."
The fruit candy was already a bit sticky, and the sesame cake had been left for an unknown amount of time, but Xiaoqiu Xiaojing obediently came up to get it, and sweetly said to Lintian, "Thank you, grandma~"
Seeing another Doudou, Mrs. Lin Tian squinted her eyes and said: "Whose child is this?"
Lin Ranran pulled the shy Doudou over with a busy smile, and said with a smile: "This is Doudou, Doudou has no relatives at home, so come with me from now on."
The grandpa and grandma are all experienced in the world, so they didn't ask too much, and they smiled again and again: "Okay, okay. This child is so painful, and he will be our child in the future. Come, grab a handful of sesame cakes for you." .¡±
Doudou grabbed the sesame cake and ran to the yard with Lin Honghong and Xiaoqiu Xiaojing to play.
Lin Ranran sat by the bed and talked with Lin Tian. Seeing that Lin Tian's expression was not good, she asked, "Are you feeling unwell?"
"No, it's nothing, it's just that my legs and feet hurt a little in the cold weather, and I have an old problem." Mrs. Lin Tian held Lin Ranran's hand and kept looking at it, and said with a smile, "Good boy, she's getting more and more beautiful. It's time to talk about her husband's family."
Lin Ranran was embarrassed, and said, "Grandma, I'm still early."
"It's getting late! When I was your age, the child was five years old!" Lin Tian said lovingly, "You are handsome, so don't delay yourself."
Lin Wenxing sat on a stool rubbing tobacco leaves, and said: "Of course, if you work in the unit, you will definitely find a good partner. Don't worry about it."
He had something serious to say to Lin Ranran: "Of course, just sit and go, grandpa and grandma won't keep you. When they heard you coming, they will definitely come over to bother you."
Lin Wenxing had a look of resentment on his face, his bunch of children were useless, because Honghong had no father or mother, they always felt that it was a disadvantage to raise this niece, and they forced him to separate the family the year before last. The old couple brought the granddaughter to live in the old house, and the life is quiet.
Lin Ranran sneered: "Don't worry, I can deal with them when they bother me. But you two need to take good care of your health. Honghong should go to school, right? Tuition"
"Of course, don't worry about it. I'll save Honghong's tuition." Lin Wenxing said hastily, "You have a family with only one child, and it's hard enough to support two younger siblings. Now??Recovered it, carried it to Lin Tian's bedside, and said: "Grandma, they won the red envelopes, and they won't come in these two days. You stewed the pork belly in the afternoon, and ate it with Honghong and Grandpa. ah?"
"I know." Mrs. Lin Tian put the snack box in the cabinet, and forced a smile, "Grandpa and Grandma have lived to such an old age, so you don't need to worry about it. You have to work hard in the unit. It doesn't matter if you work hard. Be sweet and be kind to others. If there is a suitable partner, you should have a good time with them, you know?"
Lin Tian talked a lot about it, and Lin Ranran agreed. Lin Tian saw that he had nothing to say, so he pushed Lin Ranran to go: "You go, it will get dark quickly in the second half of the day."
Lin Ranran said goodbye and came out. Those aunts left even their children, and Lin Wenxing squatted in the yard smoking a cigarette with a sad expression on his face.
"Grandpa, I'm leaving." Lin Ranran said.
Lin Wenxing hurriedly stood up, with guilt on his face: "Of course, your uncle and the others"
Lin Ranran interrupted with a smile: "Grandpa, I won't be here during the Chinese New Year. You old couple should take good care of yourselves, and if you have anything to do, ask someone to send me a message at the supply and marketing agency, and come to see me when you come to the city." You should save the snacks, and Honghong and you can eat slowly."
"Hey, I know, I know." Lin Wenxing nodded.
Lin Wenxing sent Lin Ranran to the entrance of the village, took a ox cart to the city, and repeatedly told the man driving the cart to take care of Lin Ranran.
The ox cart started rumbling, and Lin Ranran and his siblings waved vigorously at Lin Wenxing. With his hands behind his back, the old man stood at the entrance of the village and watched them leave until he disappeared from sight.
The ox cart moved slowly, Lin Ranran and his siblings leaned on the straw, squinting their eyes and dozing off. Xiaoqiu leaned into Lin Ranran's ear: "Sister, once we leave, Lili and the others will definitely come back and ask for some snacks, most of the meat will be eaten by them as well."
Lin Ranran raised the corners of her lips: "Then we can't take care of it anymore. After eating the snacks and meat, they can treat grandpa and grandma a little bit better When did you little girl become so ghostly?" Refined?"
Xiaoqiu pursed her lips and smiled: "I learned it from my sister."
Doudou and Xiaojing rolled around in a group, laughing heartlessly. Lin Ranran glanced at her younger brothers and then at her younger sister, feeling amused in her heart, the men in this family were all tall but not brainy, but Xiao Qiu, who looked at her quietly, had much more eyes than others.
In a small broken yard.
Lin Honghong sat beside Lin Tian's bed, eating a glutinous rice cake with matcha honey bean filling, dangling her legs.
Lin Wenxing was smoking dry cigarettes, complaining to his wife: "How many times have I told you that the good things are reserved for you and Honghong to eat. And in front of Ranran, isn't that cold hearted?"
Lin Tian said: "Of course he is not such a narrow-minded child. Besides, if my grandchildren want me, what else can I do? We will walk away with our legs, and Hong Hong will have to take care of them."
Mentioning this, Lin Wenxing stopped talking and smoked.
Lin Honghong suddenly said: "Grandma, grandma, don't worry. When I grow up, I'm also looking for a job. I want to earn a lot of money like Sister Ranran, and I can buy meat and cotton jackets for you!"
"Good boy, with ambition, she is a good granddaughter of grandpa!" Lin Wenxing's eyes were full of smiles.
Mrs. Lin Tian also opened the snack box with a smile: "Come on, you can choose another one to eat. Let's go to school in the spring if you are fat and fat!"
"Grandma, is our family rich? It costs several dollars to go to school." Lin Honghong asked pragmatically.
Lin Wenxing coughed a few times, and said, "You don't need to worry about this, as long as you are willing to study hard, I will definitely pay for you!"
"En!" Lin Honghong agreed with a smile, went to the snack box and carefully selected it, and reached out to take the most unremarkable white pancake.
As soon as the cake was taken out, a small red envelope appeared underneath: "Grandma, what is this?"
Both Lin Tianshi and Lin Wenxing came over, took out the small red envelope and opened it. Inside were actually two big union cards, and there were two words written on the red envelope: "Tuition fees."
Thinking of Lin Ranran's repeated emphasis on the snack box just now, the old couple burst into tears.
Only Lin Honghong looked happy, biting the cake and looking forward to it. When I go to school, I must study hard. In the future, I will be as good as sister Ranran and bring my grandparents into the city! (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
