Qi Siling helped set up the TV antenna and debugged it with Zi Qiu and Zi Dong before clapping his hands and leaving.
I washed some wax apples and cut some oranges and went back to the backyard.
Wax apples don't last long, so I only filled half a sack with them. I reminded Zi Bo and the others to eat them first, otherwise they would go bad.
Xia Youyou loved this the most, so they simply didn't sell it and kept it for her to eat slowly.
Passing by the corridor, he glanced at the two little geese, his eyes full of tenderness.
When everything is settled, I will definitely find a quiet place to live with her, raise a few geese, have a dog, surround her with a few cats, and grow old together in a chair.
Putting aside my thoughts, I stepped into the backyard filled with laughter.
The little girl made the two old men laugh, and she didn't forget to tease him.
"That kid got a bargain!"
Yes. It's as if he is marrying into the family!
He walked to the little girl, sat down next to her, and put the fruit on the stone table.
"Grandpa, Grandpa Xiao, eat some fruit."
One person handed over an orange and said, "This is an orange from the Western Province."
After the old man took it, he took out a wax apple and gave it to the little girl who was looking at him eagerly, "If you want to eat it, can't you get it yourself?"
"You hold it so delicious!" She took a bite of the juicy wax apple from his hand and shook her head in satisfaction. "It's so sweet and fragrant!"
He couldn't stand her acting funny, and he couldn't hold her in front of the two old men, so he could only pat her head and say, "You stay here with the grandfathers. I'll go buy some food. Do you want to stay here tonight or go to the Security Department?"
"Stay here, I'm too lazy to run around. As for the dormitory, I'll go and clean it up after get off work tomorrow." I'll just stay at home and accompany the old man today. I haven't seen the results of the scan yet. I'll look at them after I return to the room so that I can prescribe the right medicine.
"Okay, I'm leaving then!"
"Go, go." Xia Youyou waved indifferently, completely missing the man's reluctant look.
Qi Siling actually wanted her to go with him, but seeing that she didn't react at all, he had to give up.
The two old men smiled at each other and tactfully drove the man away.
"Good boy, go with him and see if there's anything delicious. Buy more of what you like!" Old Man Xiao said as he took out a handkerchief wrapped in banknotes from his jacket pocket. "Grandpa Xiao will give you money. Buy more. Grandpa will also try what the little girl likes!"
Xia Youyou didn't expect that he would give her money. She watched him take out a brand new Big Unity banknote from the scattered bills.
She was about to stop him, but then felt that she couldn't, so she quickly covered his hand and took out a banknote from the handkerchief.
"Grandpa, I love candy. I'll use this to buy some candy. Let's share it between us. Don't give any to Grandpa!"
Mr. Xiao was startled, then burst into laughter.
Old Master Qi standing by was at a loss whether to laugh or cry. He scolded her with a smile, "You little girl, are you dissatisfied with the fact that grandpa didn't give you money?" As he said that, he also wanted to take money out of his pocket.
Xia Youyou pretended to be expectant, and together with Old Man Xiao, she peeked at how much money was in his handkerchief, and from time to time they would say together, "Hey, it's less, less!"
"Yeah, take more!"
"Get a great unity!" After saying this, Mr. Xiao wanted to do it himself, but was avoided by Mr. Qi.
Qi Siling held his forehead and smiled bitterly. He was really a child. Only his little girl could handle him.
Finally, Xia Youyou was pushed out of the yard by the man, shaking two banknotes.
As she walked, she showed off to her uncles and a few others who had just returned from delivering the gifts and were now gathered around the TV in amazement, "Look, this is what my grandpa gave me. I'm going to buy some candy!" She walked around in front of the boys and was reluctant to leave. Her smug look made everyone jealous.
The two old men who followed behind also started to laugh and curse, and took money out of their pockets together, "Your sister-in-law hasn't grown up yet, she wants candy like a child! Come on, come on, there's all available, go buy some candy!"
Laughing and joking, a group of people walked through the alley and headed towards the supply and marketing cooperative.
Xia Youyou was held by Qiu Zidong's quilt. The man had no place to go, so he could only follow behind, listening to the chattering of the young men behind him, among which were a few drooping voices that were in the voice change period.
The group attracted the attention of people on the street, and they all turned their heads to look over.
It was because they were really noisy that they didn't stop even after they arrived at the supply and marketing cooperative, because Xia Youyou said that she would pay for everything.
She was arrogant, but Qi Siling suffered.
I thought we were just here to buy groceries, but now, not only is she a third wheel, she's still a third wheel!
We have vegetables at home, so we only need to buy meat. Qi Siling will take care of that.
Xia Youyou took the two girls to the clothing store to buy them autumn clothes.
As they grow taller, their clothes are getting shorter, and their shoes need replacing. As usual, each of them gets two sets of clothes and two pairs of shoes. I was going to buy them in Hong Kong, but the clothes there are too trendy and not suitable for going out. They're growing so fast, so I'll just leave them there. It's better to buy them here, and when they grow up and things improve, I can buy them nicer clothes.
When the salesperson saw them come in, he put away his contempt and served them enthusiastically, allowing them to take whatever they were asked to. Even Zidong was a little surprised.
"Sister-in-law, why are they so nice today?" She remembered that every time she came to buy vegetables, she ignored them.
Xia Youyou just smiled and said nothing. What else could it be? Wasn't it because of the clothes and leather shoes she was wearing?
Anyone who can afford small leather shoes these days is rich. She also has the newly popular headband in her hair, which is in short supply and impossible to buy even if you want it.
After picking out the items, Xia Youyou took out the money and wallet from her bag. These were issued by her work unit and the couple didn't usually use them, so taking them out now seemed like a good way to put them to good use.
They originally came to buy candy, but unexpectedly one person got two sets of clothes. Everyone returned to the old house happily.
However, Xia Youyou did not forget to buy candy, after all, she had promised the two old men!
The man and a few boys went to the kitchen to prepare dinner, while Xia Youyou returned to the backyard and started acting coquettishly in front of the two old people, making them laugh so hard that they couldn't stop smiling.
After playing all afternoon, Xia Youyou was finally tired. After dinner, she leaned against the man a little listlessly. She started to check their homework from time to time. "If you don't understand, come and ask now. We can answer them all."
Qi Siling was afraid that she was tired and wanted her to sit aside.
"No, I just moved my mouth."
They sat there until very late, and when the old man went to rest, they gave the younger ones instructions.
Walking on the corridor leading back to the main courtyard, Xia Youyou couldn't help but sigh, "It would be nice if we could live together." She really likes the hustle and bustle!
"Later, let's buy a large plot of land, build a manor, and let them all live in it." Thinking about my thoughts this afternoon, I found it funny again. He wanted quiet, but she wanted noise. Fine, then of course I'd just do as she wished!
"I'll run water for you to take a bath. Please put the mattress out." There was always someone cleaning the main courtyard. Both of them were used to sleeping on soft mattresses, and even he felt uncomfortable on a hard bed!
Xia Youyou responded and took out the scan results for her grandfather from the space.
Fortunately, it's just natural aging and there are no major diseases. I just need to eat more nutritious food and exercise more.
