At this time, my grandfather, who had been treated like nothing the whole time, finally couldn't bear it any longer. He cleared his throat heavily with his nose and let out a "hum".
My grandmother seemed to have just seen my grandfather, but she didn't make a fuss with him at this juncture. She personally brought the bamboo tube rice to my grandfather. My grandfather raised his hand to stroke his beard, and then he felt that he was quite majestic and got it. I won't be angry with my wife anymore because of the sweetness.
Generally speaking, the meal was quite harmonious. After dinner, Xuan Jiu took the initiative to help wash the dishes. Grandma stopped her a few times but didn't stop her, so she called Ning Chengyuan over to help Xiao Jiu clean up. Ning Chengyuan He is a person who has never done any rough work, but in this icy and snowy environment, the water from the well outside is so cold. Ning Chengyuan has been used to it since he was a child and does not care whether it is cold or not, but he does not want Xuan Jiu to suffer the slightest cold, so he just lets Xuan Jiu Jiu put away the dishes and chopsticks, and took over the task of washing the dishes himself, leaving Xuan Jiu to clean the table.
While my grandmother was boiling water on the stove in the yard, she couldn't help but tell her grandfather: "Old man, it's so rare. Xiaoyuan can even wash dishes..."
Ning Chengyuan: "... Can you please stop treating your grandson like a waste?"
Grandma nodded and said, "Okay, remember to go to the town market early tomorrow morning and buy some things."
Ning Chengyuan had no choice but to agree.
Xuan Jiu was helping him scoop out the water with a shaker. This was the first time he encountered such a water-discharging device. It was quite strange that water could come out after shaking it for a few times. After hearing his grandmother's words, he curiously said: "Go to the market." ?”
Ning Chengyuan couldn't help but raise his head and smile: "I'll take you to the town market tomorrow morning. It will be fun."
Xuan Jiu was quite novel, so he nodded and agreed to him.
After washing the dishes, Ning Chengyuan and Xuan Jiu sat down on the stone pier in the yard to chat and drink tea with the two old people. Grandma rarely spoke and mostly poured them tea. When they heard their grandfather coughing, they He silently went back to the house, took out a large cloak and put it on his grandfather, then sat down and listened to their conversation.
"You kid, don't take it lightly. The Qing Kingdom was a peaceful and prosperous country back then, but it was not dead in the end. The way of governing the country must be comprehensive from top to bottom." Every time my grandfather talked about national affairs, he had a look on his face. dignified.
Ning Chengyuan nodded and said: "Grandpa, don't worry. Now that Sheng Zhiyu is the emperor, he is willing to listen and do many things. In addition, Sheng's army has Brother Sheng and the others here, so the Northern Kingdom cannot be in chaos."
"Okay, the child has finally come back. Don't just drag him and talk about these things..." Grandma took away the teacup in Grandpa's hand and said, "It's getting late. Let's all go back to the house to rest. We will have more tea tomorrow. Get up early."
Grandfather had no choice but to get up reluctantly, and while entering the house with grandma, he whispered, "You are annoying, I haven't said a few more words..."
"You're not annoying. My two children came all the way back and they haven't rested yet."
"All right… "
After the door to his grandfather's room closed, Ning Chengyuan raised his head and couldn't help but smile. When he saw Xuan Jiu also smiled and whispered, "Your grandparents are so kind."
"I'm fine too." Ning Chengyuan looked at him with a smile and said.
Xuan Jiu stood up with a smile: "You are shameless."
Xuan Jiu helped put the things away, and then followed Ning Chengyuan quietly upstairs.
The room upstairs is really small.
