Xu Jianan thought that this was a good idea, but he didn't know which two people would go to Zhao Xiangyang's house with him.

    He raised his head and glanced at the crowd, but listened to Chen Li's first words: "I'll go to Captain Zhao's house, he has all arranged."

    Chen Li finished this sentence, and Zhang Jie and Shen Hongyuan behind him immediately expressed their opinions: "Let's follow Teacher Chen."

    Before Bai Su spoke, Xiang Jianhua and Zhu Yongjun also stood by Chen Li's side. After all, Xu Jianan was the one who saved the life. They didn't do anything, so I was so embarrassed to go to Zhao Xiangyang's house to eat and drink for nothing. ...

    Zhao Xiangyang saw that all the people were running behind Zhao Xiangdong, he just loosened Xu Jian'an, and grabbed Bai Su's sleeve and said, "Sister Bai, go to my house! Go to my house! Otherwise, my father It will really kill me!"

    "This..." Although the little guy is short, but with a lot of strength, he dragged Bai Su straight to one side. Bai Su finally stood firm, but he didn't know how to refuse, but he heard Zhao Xiangdong say: "Comrade Bai, you Let’s go to Xiangyang’s house. I’ll take the experts from the inspection

    team and leave first, otherwise the dishes will be cold.” This is sloppy...who said just now that you want a family of three in a family of four, and you won’t admit it in the blink of an eye. Up!

    Bai Su wanted to cry without tears, turned his head and glanced at Xu Jian'an secretly, but saw him expressionless, as if he didn't take this matter to heart. He is always like this. Whether he is happy or unhappy, he hides so deeply, without letting anyone know, Bai Su suddenly feels a little stuck in his heart. Seeing Zhao Xiangyang still looking at him expectantly, he just nodded and said: "Okay, then I'll go to your house."

    ******

    Zhao Desheng's house is in good condition. He lives in five large bungalows that have been renovated . When Zhao Xiangyang's father just died, the country gave a big deal. As for the pension, his family used the money to build a house. At that time, Zhao Xiangyang was only puffed up. Later, when her mother wanted to remarry, the old couple couldn't bear his grandson, so they kept Zhao Xiangyang.

    Bai Su looked at the dishes on the table and knew that Zhao Desheng had lost money today. The slaughtered old hen was half boiled in soup, half braised, cowpea, potatoes and eggplant were fried, freshly picked cucumbers were scrambled with eggs, and There are stewed bamboo shoots and old duck in a pot.

    This is too rich.

    Zhao Xiangyang sat on the edge of the table. Before he picked up the chopsticks, he couldn't help swallowing. As soon as he stretched out his hand, he was about to reach the chicken thigh in the chicken soup, but his grandma hit the back of the hand with chopsticks. He yelled, and hurriedly withdrew his hand.

    "Milk, why are you hitting me!" Zhao Xiangyang's face was depressed, his small face wrinkled.

    "Hit you a glutton, just a chicken drumstick, you still want to swallow it alone? Of course this chicken drumstick is for the guests today!" Zhao Desheng's wife said as he reached out and spooned a spoonful of soup to Zhao Xiangyang's In the bowl, he said in a bad mood: "You have a mouthful of the soup first, to see if it is salty?" Recently, Zhao Xiangyang always dismissed her cooking as too salty, and she didn't know if it was because of her aging.

    Zhao Xiangyang took a sip, licked his lips and said, "It's not salty." He said, only glanced at his milk secretly, and said unconvinced: "Milk, you wronged me. I wanted to give the chicken legs to sister Bai. Eat, don’t you often say that whoever is the thinnest should eat the most, here is Sister Bai the thinnest."

    Bai Su was flattered, this chicken drumstick couldn’t be her turn. She just came to eat and drink. She glanced at Xu Jian’an and saw that he was still expressionless, and only deliberately said: “You should I'll give you the drumstick, Brother Xu, if he didn't save you, how could your son have a chance to sit here and eat and drink?"

    Zhao Xiangyang felt that what Bai Su said was reasonable, and his grandmother also said, " Yes , Comrade Bai said something reasonable. Give Comrade Xu the chicken drumsticks. You and Comrade Bai will eat the two duck

    drumsticks, the same!" Zhao Xiangyang stood up to get the chicken drumsticks. Bai Su's eyes were quick and quick, but he hurriedly stopped and said, "You... …Go wash your hands first!" Zhao Xiangyang sat down at the table as soon as he got home, Bai Su hadn't seen him wash his hands yet.

    When his grandmother saw him, she took the chopsticks and banged on Zhao Xiangyang's head again, saying, "Hurry up and wash your hands!" Zhao Xiangyang

    Fei also ran away.

    A smile appeared on Zhao Desheng's bearded face. He suddenly remembered that his son hadn't sacrificed many years ago, and his daughter-in-law was still there, and the family was eating around the table.

    The old man sighed and sighed: "My wife, our house hasn't been so lively in a few years."

    Grandma Zhao's nose was sour, and her eyes were slightly red, but her mouth said: "There is that stinky boy, every day. You have to jump around, don’t you think it’s not lively enough?” At

    this moment, Zhao Xiangyang washed his hands and walked in from the door, and sat down on the bench, but because he was sitting too on the sidelines, the bench was different. One head cocked, he fell all at once.

    Bai Su couldn't help laughing, but Xu Jianan didn't laugh, but just lifted Zhao Xiangyang from the ground, patted his butt, and bent over to support the stool.

    He did the same when he was a child, and often fell on an unstable stool, but no one helped him up like that.

    "Hands are dirty again, let's wash them again." Bai Su and Xu Jianan said in unison.

    "..." Grandma Zhao couldn't help but glance at both of them. She had heard that there were seven people in the inspection group, and only these two people came to his house. Now looking at this posture, this The two will not be a couple, will they?

    "You two have such a tacit understanding, are you a young couple?" Grandma Zhao said with joy.

    This time made Bai Su feel embarrassed, even Xu Jianan's always expressionless face seemed to have so much embarrassment on his face.

    The old man Zhao on the side saw that his wife was guilty of the old problem again. He only cleared his throat and said: "What a young couple, people are comrades

    who work together ." "Working together can also develop and develop. Look at both of them. How many couples are there?" Although Grandma Zhao didn't guess, she was not panicked at all. She is a famous matchmaker in this village, with first-class professionalism.

    Master Zhao frowned when he heard this. He knew that his wife liked Zhang Luo's thing, but it was the young man who saw it right, and asked her to speak up, but the two comrades in front of them, they don't know the foundation. , What are you talking about?

    "Cough cough cough!" Father Zhao only cleared his throat, knocked the dry tobacco rod on the table, and only said: "What husband and wife look like, just the look in your eyes, the cock and the hen in our yard, you are all I can see how the husband and wife are together!"

    Bai Su didn't hold back this time, and couldn't help but laugh again. Now even Xu Jianan couldn't help but smile. He smiled, and there was a dimple on his cheek, strange. It's good-looking, but she didn't notice it before. It must be because Xu Jian'an smiled too little.

    "Give the drumsticks to your sister Bai." When the drumsticks were finally divided, the drumsticks were still in Bai Su's bowl under Xu Jian'an's signal, because Xu Jian'an said: "No matter what the gay men do, they should let the lesbians . "

    Zhao Xiangyang only nodded:" Yes! Yes, I often let the emerald girl next door, and gave her to eat dumplings sugar "

    Zhao grandmother, suddenly staring beads and said:" I said our house dumplings sugar ye Just ate it so fast, so you little bastard took it to show Cui Niu's courtesy? Tell me, why did Cui Niu trick you into eating sweets?"

    Zhao Xiangyang saw that he had leaked his mouth, so he hurriedly shrank. She curled her neck and said: "No, no, milk, you got it wrong, I ate the zongzi candy by myself, you see my teeth are worms!"

    Grandma Zhao snorted coldly, holding the chopsticks and wanted to knock on Zhao Xiangyang's. Forehead, this time she only acted like this. Zhao Xiangyang leaned up and hid away. The grandfather Zhao on the side said: "Okay, let's teach the baby in front of the guests, let people watch joke."

    Zhao Xiangyang chuckled, and quickly gave Grandma Zhao a chicken wing. She smiled and said: "Milk, you are not moving fast enough, come and eat chicken wings, what can you eat to make up for it!"

    Grandma Zhao still pretended to be angry. It looked like a smile appeared in his expression, and he ate the chicken wings with gusto, and he didn't forget to tell Zhao Xiangyang: "You stupid boy, you must be deceived in the future. You have to be able to , Find a girl in the city as beautiful as Comrade Bai, count you as great."

    Bai Su's cheeks are slightly red, the people in the mountains are simple, and they can speak quickly. This is their advantage, but sometimes they just let you listen. People felt a little embarrassed. She was embarrassed and didn't know what to do. However, Xu Jianan who was listening to the side said: "Comrade Bai Su, this old duck pot is delicious. Would you like to try it."

    "Okay..." Bai Su looked up and replied, with a little bit less embarrassment on his face, he used a big spoon to scoop a bowl of dried bamboo shoots and old duck, and drank slowly.

    It is normal for ordinary people to rely on mountains to eat mountains and water for drafting. The mountains in this area are rich in bamboo shoots. They are pickled and dried and boiled for soup. They are especially delicious. The old duck pot has also become a famous dish.

    ******

    Zhao Xiangyang gobbled it up, holding a bowl and taking two mouthfuls of soup. He was about to put down the bowl and chopsticks and went out, but the old man Zhao cried out, "You are rushing to reincarnate here, you are going again. Where are you going to run wild?"

    Zhao Xiangyang was not dared to run because of the name of Mr. Zhao, he just stopped and said, "I have an appointment with Ergouzi and the others. I went to the woods in the northwest to catch them and feed them to rhubarb. Lord, I'm going to be late, I'm really leaving!" He said, seeing that Mr. Zhao didn't ask anything, he took two steps to the door, turned around and ran away.

    Father Zhao stretched his neck and wanted to call him again. He was nowhere to be seen. He could only shook his head angrily and said to himself: "Every day I know how to play, I don't know when I will be more sensible, help him Grandma beats her hands and does housework."

    Grandma Zhao just waved her hand when she heard the words, "I don't want him to beat her, do n't burn these houses in the house."

    Bai Su couldn't help but ask again. : "Father, Xiangyang is so old, why don't you send him to school?"

    "The road to school is too far. The elementary school closest to us has to walk ten miles of mountain roads to go to school in the commune. It takes more than an hour to ride a bicycle without anyone going there." Mr. Zhao said, with a little bit on his face. Reluctantly, Zhao Xiangyang’s mother wrote a letter a year ago, saying that Zhao Xiangyang is now old and going to school. If the old couple can’t make arrangements, she will come back and pick him up.

    The old man Zhao couldn't bear Zhao Xiangyang, but what his mother said was right. The baby had to go to school. Now she has settled in the county seat and has the ability to donate Zhao Xiangyang. Sooner or later it will be a matter of picking up the baby.
