Chapter 310 Paper Love
Gao Xiulan followed behind and saw both of them enter the post office, completely puzzled.
"Why did these two meet?"
Ernengzi shook his head and stretched his head to look at the movement inside diagonally opposite.
"Don't you know? Didn't Xia Caiyun recognize that the person behind her was Jia Yuhe?"
He still remembered that year when Xia Caiyun broke into the courtyard with a thorny bramble in her hand, fought two people alone, sat on Jia Yuhe's body and slapped her hard in the face.
Just thinking about it makes my body ache.
Gao Xiulan also felt something was not right. Xia Caiyun seemed like a different person following behind Zhao Yunyun, timid and like a bullied young wife. This was so unlike her.
The two of them pretended to sit down in the state-owned restaurant next door with their packed food. They were tired after standing for the whole morning, so they deliberately found a seat by the window.
Gao Xiulan felt her pocket, went to the counter and ordered a roast duck to be packed away in oil paper.
My good granddaughter Chengzi came back at noon today, so I bought some roast duck to serve as a meat dish.
After all, Xie Yi's cooking skills still need to be improved.
Ernengzi swung his long braid and waited for Gao Xiulan to sit down before going to buy it.
There's no way, he also has a greedy son.
Ahem, how can a child finish a whole one? The rest will end up in the adults’ mouths.
In the post office next door, Xia Caiyun took out a bulging envelope from her pocket like a thief and handed it to the clerk.
He whispered, "Comrade, I want to send a letter."
"It's a local letter, right? 8 cents for a stamp, 4 cents for an envelope. Let me weigh it here."
Xia Caiyun gritted her teeth and took out a dime from her trouser pocket, her heart bleeding.
It costs 4 cents to send a letter within the city and 8 cents to send a letter to other places.
The pen pal she made used a fake identity and was lazy today and didn't go to the stall to practice. She saved money for several days before finally having enough money to send a letter to her great poet He.
But it's worth thinking about it.
Jia Yuhe, who was hiding behind, lowered her head, her hair was spread out, and her face could not be seen clearly.
Just now, Ernengzi saw the person's face when the wind blew by, otherwise he would not have recognized him.
In the past, Jia Zhenzhen was the one who went to the city to deliver the letters, but now it was winter and she had caught a cold, so she had no choice but to come over.
I even chose a post office that was a little far away, for fear of being seen.
"The sender is He Yu from Shengli Street, right?"
Xia Caiyun nodded, a layer of shy pink appearing on her face.
Jia Yuhe, who was queuing behind, froze in her tracks as she stroked her hair. A bolt of lightning struck her head in broad daylight.
What the hell?
The pen pal she picked up casually was actually right in front of her. She didn't see her face, but from her figure from behind she realized that she was a woman.
The man's voice sounded somewhat familiar.
She felt inexplicably guilty, and in the letter she fabricated an identity for herself: a divorced, literary poet with children who liked to contribute to newspapers.
That's right, she pretended to be a man this time.
She kept this vest secret, and apart from her, only Jia Zhenzhen knew about it.
Her pen pal is clearly a young and beautiful college student who went to the countryside to take the college entrance examination and returned to the city.
Looking closely, this person's sneaky movements are exactly the same as mine!
Something bad has happened!
Xia Caiyun wrote the address on the outside of the envelope and felt a strong gaze behind her. She turned her head and saw no one behind her.
Could it be her illusion?
No matter what, I finally sent the letter and felt a lot more relieved.
This time she stumbled through several pages of letters, a thick stack, which made her feel quite accomplished.
She is short of money and tickets these days, otherwise she could send some to help Brother He.
In the next letter, she was the beautiful and caring college student "Lanzhi".
She smoothed her hair as she went out and quickened her pace. She was hurrying back to the compound to cook.
After a while, Jia Yuhe came out from the right side of the wall of the post office.
"Damn, it's you."
She has been committing fraud for so many years and never thought that the person she would hook up with this time would be Xia Caiyun!
The former rivals changed their identities and expressed their love in letters.
It makes me feel a little sick just thinking about it.
"But that's fine. You can help Fu Wenlei pay off the debt he cheated me with."
My mind raced and an idea came to my mind.
I didn't expect to gain this when I returned to the city this time. I went in again and sent the letter.
Gao Xiulan and Ernengzi were standing outside the door, holding roast duck wrapped in oil paper, and didn't understand what was going on.
"Forget it, let's go back."
As long as the matter doesn't affect her, she doesn't need to meddle in other people's affairs and can just listen.
"Why."
Ernengzi shook his long braid, lowered his head and followed behind, then slipped into the bathroom, took off his wig, and came out looking like a normal person.
"Grandma, you're back."
As soon as they entered the alley, Chengzi rushed over, took Gao Xiulan's hand and walked towards home.
"You heartless little thing, you finally made it back. What delicious food did you eat at Doudou's house? Look at your chubby little face. Have your parents prepared dinner at home?"
"Grandma, I miss you so much, especially when I eat delicious food.
The meal is ready, and Grandpa also bought some Arctic Ocean today."
Only she and her mother like to drink Coke, but the whole Beibingyang family likes to drink it.
Moreover, my third uncle now has a small shop in the alley, which also sells Beibingyang, which is much more convenient than before.
"Dad, if you don't come back soon, I'll starve to death."
Guoqing followed suit, took a running start, and jumped onto Ernengzi. Although he was small, he was very strong.
Hanging it on a person is like having a solid weight, which is really tiring.
"Son, if you don't let go, I'm going to take your pants off."
Ernengzi gritted his teeth and spanked Guoqing on the butt.
Why does this naughty kid look so much like him when he was a child?
Guoqing let out a cry and came down feeling aggrieved. The next second, he smelled the aroma of meat in the paper package and his eyes narrowed into slits.
"Dad, go back quickly, grandma and mom are waiting."
"Stinky boy, why weren't you so enthusiastic when I came back before?"
…
In April, the weather turned cold again and there was a drizzle outside.
The annual Qingming Festival arrives as scheduled.
"Orange, put on a raincoat outside."
Xie Yi put on his daughter's clothes, put on the raincoat and hood, and pushed the bicycle out.
"Mom and Dad, we're going out."
Lin Xiaotong rolled up the things in her hand and put them into her bag, then waved to Gao Xiulan who was standing at the door.
"Hey, be careful when riding your bike in the rain."
"I understand."
Xie Yi took a long stride and rode on the 28-inch bicycle. Lin Xiaotong sat on the back seat holding a big umbrella, and Chengzi sat on the front bar wearing a raincoat.
The bicycle drove out of the alley and headed for the suburban cemetery.
A few years ago, after the storm had passed, we came together every year to visit the graves of Lin’s father and mother.
We arrived at the place very quickly. It was very quiet, backed by green mountains and surrounded by evergreen pines and cypresses.
The bicycle was parked at the door, Xie Yi held an umbrella, Lin Xiaotong put down the flowers in her hand, walked forward and gently wiped the tombstone.
"It's raining."
Orange is very brave and not afraid at all.
My mother said that those who sleep here are the best and most powerful people.
I looked closely at the photo on the tombstone, looking left and right.
These are my mother’s parents and her grandparents.
We are all family.
"Mom and Dad, I brought you some apricot wine this year. I picked it last summer and made it myself..."
Lin Xiaotong squatted down and chatted with her parents for a while.
Xie Yi squatted beside them and poured wine for his mother-in-law and father-in-law.
Orange squeezed in with his parents, and when Lin Xiaotong was taking a break, his little mouth started chattering.
"Grandma and Grandpa, look, this is Orange's painting. This is Grandma, and this is Grandpa..."
The little guy hid it very well. Neither of the two adults had ever seen this picture. There were two extra heads on its head.
To be honest, Lin Xiaotong felt that if Chengzi didn't tell her who the painting was of, she would never have been able to guess it.
The paper is covered with stick figures of different sizes.
Xie Yi couldn't help but ask, "Daughter, did you forget to wipe the line at the bottom?"
"No, no, these are the little devils defeated by my grandparents!"
Orange raised his head, met his mother's gaze, and wanted to praise her.
Lin Xiaotong's mouth twitched. So this is what the broken stick figure in the painting, with its arms and legs missing, looked like.
"Not bad, not bad, the painting is very good."
Orange was satisfied and continued talking with his head down.
"Uncle, let's go. The rain has stopped now."
After saying hello to the gravekeeper, the family of three rode their bicycles towards home.
