"Grandma, won't you go back with me?" Chen Qingxuan asked in a low voice.
Grandma Chen is getting old, and he is worried that Grandma Chen lives alone at home. Although Grandma Chen often goes home alone for a short stay, but it is winter after all, and it is inconvenient to come in and out. Chen Qingxuan was naturally worried that she was alone at home.
"What am I going back with you for? Can't I make things difficult for you?" Grandma Chen buried her head in the dishes while humming. "I went. Where are you so deserted?"
Chen Qingxuan was a little guilty and helpless, so he rubbed his hands next to Grandma Chen for a long time. Then she begged in a low voice: "Grandma, after August of this year, I won the lottery. I will definitely find you a daughter-in-law. I will give birth to a big fat grandson with you as soon as possible, how about it?"
"Hmph, you kid is used to painting cakes for my old lady." Grandma Chen snorted. But the obvious tone was much lighter.
"Grandson will definitely keep his word this time! Grandma, you can do it! The beautiful granddaughter-in-law can't escape, and the fat and heavy grandson can't escape either!" Chen Qingxuan heard the change of Grandma Chen, and was so busy smiling flatteringly. Then I went back to my room to pack my things.
"This kid!" Grandma Chen shook her head and sighed, while putting the washed dishes into the cupboard.
…
Jixian Bookstore.
Chen Qingxuan was driving the donkey cart. Stopping steadily in front of the door of Jixian Bookstore, he jumped off the donkey cart while helping Grandma Chen get off the carriage. One side said: "Grandma, please slow down, it's not bright outside yet, you have to watch your feet carefully."
"Who told you to rush this way before dawn?" Grandma Chen gave him a blank look, and got out of the carriage.
"Isn't this...wouldn't you rather be early than late?" Chen Qingxuan scratched his head and smiled apologetically.
In fact, he really didn't want to be blocked by the matchmaker or something, so just after breakfast, he brought Grandma Chen back in a hurry.
"You boy!" Grandma Chen obviously saw Chen Qingxuan's thoughts, pointed at Chen Qingxuan, and ordered, "Have you taken the things off the car yet?"
"Oh, I'll go right away!" Chen Qingxuan went over to move things in a hurry, and looked at a big bag in the carriage. He had never seen that big bag before, so he came over with that bag, and casually asked Grandma Chen, "Grandma, what's in here?"
"Oh, I did the embroidery work for that girl." Grandma Chen glanced at her and said, "For Chinese New Year, there are many people making clothes in the village, so naturally there are more embroidery work, so I will give her more." Picking up a few pieces is enough for her to make a small fortune."
"That's too much," Chen Qingxuan weighed the weight in his hands, and couldn't help but frowned, and whispered to Grandma Chen as he entered the room, "Grandma, that girl is only so old, so you just give her so much money." Work, carefully make her sick, even if she is not tired, if she stares at the embroidery all day long, do you want her eyes or not?"
"It's not urgent work, she will do it slowly," Grandma Chen explained in a hurry, and sighed again, "Besides, there is a disabled elder in that girl's family who needs to support her, and she doesn't do embroidery work." What should I do? Do you rely on the northwest wind?"
"That can't always be like this..." Chen Qingxuan thought about Ah Chou's thin face and the huge bamboo basket she always carried behind her back, feeling really uncomfortable.
"However, it will be fine when she gets married in the future," Grandma Chen said slowly, "In a few years, I'll find her a good family, who can support her, and the disabled one in her family..."
"Grandma! Just forget about it! Don't think about what you have!" Chen Qingxuan almost had a headache. Why is his grandma so keen on being a partner? Then he didn't talk about him, and started thinking about the little girl again.
"Why is this not available? That girl is seventeen now. In our village, there are many mothers who are seventeen years old. She was delayed because of family affairs, or..." Grandma Chen gave Chen Qingxuan a blank look, and was about to say something more, but suddenly her eyes widened, and she stared straight at Chen Qingxuan.
"Grandma? Grandma, what's the matter with you? Sit down quickly! Sit down!" Chen Qingxuan put the burden on the table, and when he turned around, he saw Grandma Chen's staring eyes. I had to help Grandma Chen to sit down, and at the same time was busy fetching water to make tea for Grandma Chen, "Did you catch a cold on the road? I'll make tea for you right now!"
