Niu Erxi knocked on the door for half an hour until her hands were sore, but no one opened it. She thought there was a lot of work waiting for her at home.
She opened her eyes wide and waited for the old woman beside her to die, thinking that since Lu Qinglin had returned, he could take care of her or not, and it didn't matter if the old woman starved to death here, saving her the trouble of taking care of this old thing.
After thinking it over, Niu Erqi turned around and left, cursing.
Su Tangxue was completely awakened by the knocking on the door. After the sound died down, she put on her clothes and got off the bed.
Lu Qinglin had disappeared a long time ago and no one knew where he had gone.
After a quick wash, she took out the egg cake her father had bought from the supply and marketing cooperative and started eating it with some hot water.
I had this for breakfast this morning.
Holding the egg cake in her hand, Su Tangxue ate while walking towards the door.
I wanted to see when Lu Qinglin would come back, and wanted to take him to the supply and marketing cooperative in town to buy some rice, oil, seasonings, etc.
The house is too empty, lacking some necessities, and not particularly convenient to use.
Lu Qinglin was not home, so Su Tangxue did not dare to open the door. She simply glanced outside through the crack in the door.
You wouldn't know until you see it. Why is there someone sitting in front of her door?
It was nine o'clock in the morning and the sun was not very strong, but the old lady in front of the door had a thin layer of sweat on her forehead from being baked. Her face looked very haggard and she seemed to be on the verge of collapse.
Afraid that the old lady would come out, she quickly opened the door.
"Grandma, are you here to look for Lu Qinglin?" Su Tangxue asked tentatively.
The woman who knocked on the door this morning was looking for Lu Qinglin, Su Tangxue guessed that this grandmother was also here.
"Ah? What?" Yun Xiangrui is old and a little hard of hearing.
Su Tangxue could only lean closer to the old man's ear and repeat what she had just said.
Hearing the name of his grandson Lu Qinglin, Yun Xiangrui's cloudy eyes lit up.
"Lu Qinglin is my grandson. I'm here to look for him. Is this his home?"
Grandma said that Lu Qinglin was her grandson, and Su Tangxue then remembered who this old lady was.
However, the old lady's current appearance was very different from the amiable one in her memory.
The sun outside was getting brighter and brighter, and Su Tangxue quickly helped the person into the house.
"He'll be back soon. Grandma, let me help you go in and rest for a while! It's sunny outside."
"Thank you, my daughter." Yun Xiangrui smiled and thanked Su Tangxue.
"You're welcome, grandma."
Su Tangxue helped the old lady sit down in a shady place, while she went into the kitchen to pour a bowl of water.
Worried that the old lady hadn't had breakfast, she brought two more egg cakes.
Yun Xiangrui was brought here by Niu Erqi this morning without having breakfast, and he was indeed a little hungry now.
Su Tangxue was bored at home alone, so she moved a small stool and sat next to her grandmother to chat with her.
When Lu Qinglin returned home, he happened to see an old man and a young boy sitting under the eaves chatting.
Hearing the sound of the door opening, Su Tangxue looked towards the door and saw Lu Qinglin carrying large and small bags of things in his hands.
Her eyes lit up and she ran towards him happily.
Su Tangxue's mood now was like a child looking forward to going out to the street and bringing back something for his parents.
"You're back. I've been waiting for you for a long time. Where have you been?"
"I went to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy some things. Sorry for being late."
Su Tangxue wanted to take the things from Lu Qinglin's hand, but Lu Qinglin didn't let her and went in with the things.
He didn't stop until he reached the old lady.
"Grandma, I'm Lu Qinglin."
When Yun Xiangrui heard that the other person was her grandson Lu Qinglin, her dry eyes became slightly moist.
Su Tangxue felt that they must have a lot to talk about since they hadn't seen each other for so long, so she put her things away and went back to her room.
After lying there for a long time, the door was opened and Su Tangxue looked at the man standing at the door.
"Su Tangxue, let's talk."
