"Grandma, I'm back." Chu Yanyan skipped into the house, looked at her napping grandmother, and slowly placed her schoolbag on the small stool. She took off her cloth shoes and put on slippers with bunny stickers on them.
Walk to the well in the middle of the small courtyard, lift the wooden bar up and down with force. Under the action of pressure, the water in the well rises along the pipe, flows out of the port, and flows into the brown-red plastic bucket.
He took a few sips from the gourd ladle and poured the rest into a 500ml cup. After filling it, he covered it and washed his hands. He then took the half-empty bucket and strode to the vegetable patch beneath the loofah shed.
They lived in an alley in the town, surrounded by buildings and with no land to grow vegetables and fruits. The hardworking grandmother used soil she brought in from outside to create a small vegetable garden in the southeast corner of the courtyard, and built a bamboo shed for the fruits and vegetables. On the other side, she set up bamboo poles to hang clothes.
Although Chu Yanyan's body is that of a human, his essence and his heart are still that of a rabbit. What does a rabbit love most? Of course, carrots.
After he regained his memory, he asked his grandmother to plant carrots for him without hesitation.
Grandma Chu doted on him, so of course she agreed. In order to make the carrots grow well, she even raised the vegetable patch. Apart from some coriander, onions, garlic, and Chinese cabbage, the whole patch was planted with his carrots.
Shen Qihe's life story was tragic, and the body Chu Yanyan was in was no better. He was picked up from the garbage dump on the roadside by Grandma Chu. Grandma Chu had two sons, but the sons have now settled down in other cities, and Grandma Chu and Grandpa Chu live in the old courtyard.
As she grew older, Grandpa Chu passed away due to illness. After handling his funeral, her son wanted to take her to live in the city, but Grandma Chu refused. She liked living in her hometown, and her eighty-year-old body could not withstand the tossing and turning.
In addition, my son was busy with work, so the matter was left unresolved.
Half a month after her husband died, Grandma Chu went to buy daily necessities and passed by a garbage dump when she heard a child crying. She found the abandoned baby in the garbage dump and looked at the baby with a messy face.
Grandma Chu thought about how she lived alone, her life was boring. When her son and daughter-in-law came home, they didn't bring their children with them, saying they had a nanny to take care of them or were studying and didn't have time to come see her. She only saw her grandchildren during the Chinese New Year, but because she hadn't raised them, they were shy and timid about calling her grandpa and grandma. When the children grew up, she stopped bringing them with her.
And now, there is a child. Looking at the baby's wrinkled face, Grandma Chu thought that she was lonely living alone and had no one to talk to, so she decided to raise this baby.
So she took the abandoned baby home, and with the help of the aunt from the neighborhood committee, she successfully registered the baby in her household registration, with the name Chu Yanyan, her little grandson.
With such a little grandson, Grandma Chu always holds Chu Yanyan in her heart and loves him dearly. Knowing that Yanyan likes carrots, she sews carrot logos on the clothes and cotton-padded jackets for him.
.
After watering the carrots he had been longing for, Chu Yanyan washed his hands again, wiped off the water stains on his hands, wiped a few times on his school pants, and then walked into the house.
He picked up the small stool next to him, placed it under the cupboard, stepped on it, and took out two bowls, a pair of wooden chopsticks, a wooden spoon, and a bamboo rice spoon.
After going out to wash, I walked in again, walked to the corner, unplugged the plug, put the bowls and chopsticks on the ground, turned on the rice cooker, and the aroma of meat spread out.
Chu Yanyan stared at the steamed carrot slices and chopped pork in the pot. After steaming, the carrots and chopped pork became one, and glossy soup floated in the big bowl.
Grandma makes lunch every day. She puts the dishes to be eaten that day into the rice cooker and steams them together with the rice. Then she goes to sleep and eats when Chu Yanyan comes back and is hungry.
He carefully took it out and put it aside, then picked up the iron rack inside the pot, which was still hot. He took one of the bowls and the rice spoon and used it to scoop up the rice.
Both bowls were filled. He used chopsticks to cut the pork ball in half, put one half into the bowl, and used a slightly concave rice spoon to scoop up the broth from the pork ball and pour it over the fragrant rice. He walked to the table with the spoon and bowl, and called softly, "Grandma, it's time to eat."
Grandma Chu is now 86 years old. As she gets older, she sleeps more and more. When she hears her grandson calling, she slowly opens her eyes and turns to look at her little grandson who is busy working: "Yanyan, is school over?"
"It's time to go home from school. Grandma, I was praised by my teacher today, and I also got myself a red scarf that my brother often wears." Chu Yanyan started talking and told her grandma about the interesting things that happened today.
Grandma Chu had a kind face. She reached out and stroked the red scarf worn by Chu Yanyan, and nodded: "Good. Yanyan is great."
"Grandma, get up and eat." Chu Yanyan helped her grandmother get up and sit on the chair.
Grandma Chu took a piece of meat from her bowl and put it into Chu Yanyan's bowl: "Eat more."
Chu Yanyan also scooped a piece of meat from her bowl and gave it to her grandmother: "Grandma, you should eat more too."
Grandma Chu felt even more sad when she looked at her well-behaved grandson. If she went to see his grandfather and Yanyan was left alone, how would poor Yanyan live?
Chu Yanyan didn't know that his grandmother was already thinking about a way out for his future.
After lunch.
After Chu Yanyan washed the bowl with detergent, she used fragrant shower gel to wash off the remaining detergent smell on her hands.
Although he was young and unfamiliar with human life at first, after getting familiar with it, he treated the grandmother as his relative. When his grandmother was in poor health, as her relative, he of course did some housework for her and took care of her.
After cleaning the house, he opened his schoolbag and sat on a stool to write his study assignments for this morning.
The calculations that humans have to learn are a bit difficult for him. He racked his brains and wiggled his little feet. When he couldn't do it, he humbly asked the system for help.
Tongzi is a data code system that makes calculations easy and gives answers directly.
But Chu Yanyan wanted to understand the process. He had just filled in the answer to the last calculation and ended up with an egg. Seeing a red egg, Chu Yanyan almost cried. It was such a huge blow.
Tongzi couldn't do anything either, though if it was a fill-in-the-blank problem, it could certainly help. Calculations could only give the answer, after all, the moment it looked at the question, it blurted out the answer.
