The alley where Xiaohua lives is called Dongyulin Alley.
There are dozens of families living in it, all of them are old neighborhoods for decades. Every family knows the bottom line. Suddenly, a stranger's house comes, and they are very curious.
But the door of this family is very strict, and there is almost no open courtyard door. There are a few times I saw a woman go out to buy vegetables, but when she came back, the door was tightly closed.
Only then did Aunt Ma come to the door. It was a kind of closeness to the neighbors, and it was also a visit to learn about the neighbors.
Xiaohua told Aunt Ma that she was a widow with two children. Lilac and Chuncao are her sister and sister.
Not to mention sisters and sisters, the widow of Guang Xiaohua shocked Lilac and Chuncao. Chuncao was calmer than Lilac, because she knew earlier that the wife planned to act as a widow when she left the house in the future, not to mention that she now has two children, and this widow is also acting as a widow.
Just what should Your Highness do? Just being a widow
Only then did Chun Cao understand, and the woman was really ruthless when she became angry.
There were two widows in a house, and Aunt Ma felt pity for the size of the yard. Every so often, he came over to talk, seeing Chuncao and Lilac both clumsily doing housework, and even opened their mouths to give them pointers.
He even brought his daughter-in-law and a few friendly little daughters-in-law to the house as guests. After coming and going, Xiaohua became familiar with the people in the alley. When Lilac went shopping again, someone would say hello to her, or a little daughter-in-law would take her with her.
Lilac and a familiar little daughter-in-law went to buy vegetables several times, only to realize that she is also a widow in the eyes of outsiders. Thinking of her age and dress, Lilac could only recognize it by touching her nose. Madam became a widow, and now it is better that she is also a widow.
Ye'er and Yiyi also had a few more playmates, all of them were little kids from nearby families, the older one was five or six years old and the younger two or three years old. Together Xian Ye'er and Yiyi's playmate is Mao Dan'er, the grandson of Aunt Ma's family next door.
Mao Dan'er is a year older than them, and he is three years old this year. He is very lively. After the three little guys played twice, Mao Dan'er took them out to play, and then went out with the other little boys in the alley. The children are familiar.
Ye Er and Yiyi went out to play with their friends, Xiao Hua and Lilac Chuncao were not at ease, and they followed one person every time they went out. Later, after the guidance of a family in the alley, I learned that it is not that they are worried about their children, but that so many people in the alley will help to watch.
Haven't you noticed that many people don't close their courtyard doors? It was adults doing things at home, and the little ones were playing outside, and they stared at them along the way. There are also those old uncles and aunts who sit and chat at the door when they have nothing to do, and they will help to watch.
And there is an old man named Lao Li Tou at the alley. He is very old and has no descendants. He is the only one in the family. If he ran to the alley, he would help to rush back.
This time Xiaohua can be relieved, and she also learned from other people's houses to keep the courtyard door open, and then let the two children play at the door of the house.
After a period of time like this, not only did Xiaohua have more smiles on her face, but also Lilac and Chuncao. It was lively and bustling all day long, and the neighbors were close and friendly. Compared with the time in King Jing’s mansion, it seemed that such a life was called life.
When it was time for dinner, the whole alley was filled with the cries of adults calling their children home for dinner. At this time, a person from the small courtyard, sometimes Xiaohua, sometimes Lilac Chuncao, came to tell Ye Er and Yiyi to go home for dinner.
Ye'er and Yiyi are very popular among the little dolls in the alley. The two dolls are so beautiful that they are not only rare for adults, but also liked by children of the same age. Second, the two of them are not like some children, who roll on the ground and cry when they are unhappy. Over time, those three or four years old, five or six year olds love to play with the two of them.
The most important thing is that the mothers of Ye'er and Yiyi are very gentle, at least in the minds of the little kids, the mothers of Yiyi and Ye'er don't scold people, and don't pump their butts, and occasionally give them delicious cakes . It would be great if my own mother could do the same!
That's why, every time Yiyi and Ye'er go home for dinner, they always have one or two little babies by their side.
"Here's the fat man? Have dinner at my aunt's house at noon."
Big Fatty is the son of a pork seller in the alley. He is five years old this year.
Ever since Yiyi joined the group of friends, Big Fat has always followed. He also said among a group of little kids that Yiyi was covered by him, and whoever dared to bully Yiyi in the future, he would beat him.
Chuncao came back and told Xiaohua this, and it made her amused. Such a small child knows that she is a 'hood'.
Later, I learned that Big Fat's father, butcher Zhang, is a well-known strong man in this alley. Every time someone bullies the weak in the alley, he will say such a sentence, and Big Fat also learned this.
"Thank you auntie."
Seeing this, the little baby thanked her in a serious way, but it made Xiaohua laugh and laugh.
"No thanks, no thanks, Auntie is very happy that Big Fatty can come to eat at home. You can see that Yiyi and Ye'er couldn't eat by themselves before, but now they have learned it."
Over there, Yiyi was sitting on a small tumbler, with a small table in front of her, waiting for dinner. In the same way, there is also such a set of small tables and chairs in front of Ye'er. When Xiaohua saw that people with little babies in the alley had such a set of equipment, she asked someone to make two sets of them.
Not to mention, it's really easy to use, a little person, sitting on a tumbler, with a bowl of rice on the small table, can also dig out the rice with a spoon and eat it.
Of course, he is definitely not skilled in eating, and always gets rice grains everywhere, but Xiaohua puts on a robe for the two of them and takes them off after eating.
This tunic was also made by a family member who had children in the alley. Just because he was afraid that the children would get dirty and the clothes would be difficult to wash, Xiao Huabian also used cloth to make two pieces for Ye'er and Yiyi.
"My aunt will serve you a meal, and then bring you a small tumbler. You and Yiyi will eat at a small table."
"Okay." The big fat answered crisply, and he went to carry a small tumbler and sat next to Yiyi.
Three little children, each one has a bowl of rice, and the big fat bowl should be bigger. It's all the same meal, rice, soup, veggies, scrambled eggs, and small pieces of boneless chicken breast.
"Auntie, your food is delicious."
"I'll come more after it's delicious." Xiaohua said with a smile, and glanced at Lilac with admiration.
Lilac has a smile in her eyes. Some people praise her for her delicious food. Although she is a child, she is still very happy.
After eating, Xiaohua brought water and a cotton handkerchief to wash hands and mouths for the three little guys. After cleaning Ye'er and Yiyi first, they wiped the fat man again.
"Auntie, you should be a mother to Big Fatty, Big Fatty likes you."
Ye Er's small eyes quickly glanced over and said, "No way."
Xiaohua was slightly embarrassed and said with a smile, "That's not good, my aunt is the mother of Ye'er and Yiyi, so she can't be a mother to Big Fatty."
"Really?" The little guy was about to cry.
"That's right." Xiaohua touched his little head, "Big Fatty has his own mother, so you can't just recognize someone as a mother."
"But the fat man doesn't have a mother?"
Xiaohua suddenly became dumbfounded and looked at Chuncao, who nodded.
Xiaohua's expression became complicated, and she didn't know what to say, "In the future, if the fat man likes the meal from his aunt's house, he can eat it every day."
Little Wa'er's attention shifted quickly, and when he heard this, Big Fatty didn't hesitate and smiled again.
"Auntie, the fat man is going home, or he will beat me up when he can't find him."
"Then run slowly and don't fall."
"Hey."
…
Xiaohua's life went smoother and smoother, but Zhao Da was tangled.
Without him, there are too many people in this alley. When he comes in, or his subordinates come in, there will always be people asking questions. The more times they come, there will be people who are like checking their household registration, asking where their family is and what they are doing. They always come to Dongyulin Lane.
I was extremely embarrassed to ask Zhao Da, saying that he had relatives here, but no one believed it.
In fact, it’s not surprising that people don’t believe it, but Zhao Da’s group is too weird. They always go into the alley and do nothing, just walk around there. flower.
So much so that when a few people from Zhao Da came back, someone would follow them, sometimes it was an aunt, sometimes an uncle. When they were eating, they didn't pull it down, and they would follow you with a bowl.
Zhao Da was very helpless, and knew that it would not work like this. After a lot of thought, he spent an extremely expensive price to buy a small yard in the alley.
How expensive is it
At the beginning, Xiaohua's yard was resold by a family who wanted to move their entire family. It sold for more than 80 taels, which is the market price. As for Zhao Da's yard, it was tempted to sell it at a high price, and the price was more than doubled for two hundred taels.
The more expensive it is, the more important the task assigned by His Highness is. Live closer, and be close to protection.
After living here, Da Zhao knew what his wife and little master looked like now.
Madam wears common clothes all day long and dresses like ordinary people. Although she seldom goes out, she occasionally walks around nearby houses. The two little masters were even more frightening. They dressed like ordinary children in the market, and that's fine. They also ran around with a group of dirty little children. Either watching ants here, or digging for bugs there, Zhao Da wanted to live and die.
Such news naturally did not forget to deliver it to the mansion.
It is worth mentioning that Zhao Da's yard is diagonally opposite to Xiaohua's house, so it is very convenient to see what's going on here.
Two families moved in in a short period of time in the alley, and Zhao Da and others were naturally included in the list of observations by the people in the alley.
After the observation of the aunts, uncles and aunts, there are four or five men living in this family, and none of them are married. Because there are no women, they do nothing on weekdays and rarely go out. Most of the time they just sit in the yard with the courtyard door wide open. , do not know what to do.
The news in the alley spread very fast, and soon even Xiaohua knew that a strange family had moved in diagonally across the door. Aunt Ma next to her also specifically explained to Xiaohua that she should not go out if she has nothing to do. You are a housewife, and if you have anything, just shout, and everyone will come out.
Xiaohua didn't show her face, and she was puzzled. Sure enough, Lilac came back the next day and said that the opposite is living with Zhao Da. Xiaohua's face was dark and inexplicable, and Lilac Chuncao didn't dare to make a sound.
But people have already followed, can she not let her follow? Xiaohua could only pretend that nothing happened.
After living for a few days, Zhao Da quickly understood the characteristics of the people in the alley, and also understood that their group was really weird, and normal people would not be like this.
In desperation, he could only pretend to go out and walk around, occasionally bringing some meat and some wine in his hand, and asking the men in the alley to drink some. Then, during the drinking process, the words revealed some information about themselves.
For example, several of them are brothers, their parents are gone, and several of the brothers are darts, and they change their pick-up jobs on weekdays. It's not that they don't marry a daughter-in-law, it's that they have special jobs, poor and ugly people, and no one wants to be with them.
What Zhao Da said was quite sad, and soon won the sympathy of some men in the alley, so all the women in the alley knew the situation of this family surnamed Zhao. It seems that they are indeed mistaken, and the good people are the bad ones.
Because of this, the Zhao family occasionally had men in the alley come to their brothers for a drink, and even revealed that the women in the family would help them pay attention.
Pay attention to what
After Zhao Da lay on the kang at night, he understood what it meant.
The author has something to say: ps: King Jing is so calm, he won't come for a while.
o(n_n)o Haha~ I've been widowed, can I still hold my breath if I don't make it? Face to face, I remember when everyone suggested 'widow' at the beginning.
Well, Xiaojing will be here tomorrow, because someone is courting the widow's door. ahem...
I feel that the flower is good or bad ^
Worrying about two little suffering pros, don't worry. In fact, there is no so-called hardship and non-hardship in life. After all, there is no problem with saving money and food and clothing. What's more, the two young ones are only over two years old. When I was just slowly remembering things, no matter how good clothes you gave him or the best meals, he didn't know whether it was good or bad. Might as well play with some friends...
Of course, we can't control whether the father is distressed or not... ~(≧▽≦)/~
