Southern flower locust

On the horizon, a round of bright red sunset hangs on the farthest mountain in the western sky, falling and falling.

Nan Li walked in front with a basket on his back, and Sen Huai followed behind with a food box.

They are about the same height, Sen Huai stared at the back of his head in front of him, and walked at a constant speed on the field path, feeling that the back of his head was getting closer and closer to him, when he looked down, Nan Li was limping, he probably twisted his foot accidentally.

How stubborn, Sen Huai thought.With a sigh, she grabbed Xiao Hua who was silent in front of her, stepped forward, and squatted down.

"Hey, come up."

"I can."

Sen Huai didn't speak, just squatted still, and when he squatted a little bit numb, his back sank.Mori Huai smiled lowly, but was afraid that the high mountain flower would be ashamed again, then coughed a few times, barely suppressed the smile, slightly raised her head and looked to the rear right.

"Brother is wrong." Sen Huai said, holding Nan Li firmly to get up, and walked forward, "Brother was heartless before, and I deserve it if I don't remember. If you don't want to say it, we won't say it. Let brother Thinking about it myself, thinking about it, you will be beaten and scolded one by one, huh?"

Nan Li moved, and his voice was as thin as a mosquito: "En." Just enough for Sen Huai to hear.

The setting sun fell into the horizon, and the orange-red halo rendered the entire dusk, and a wisp of thin cloud dispersed, revealing the moon drowning in it, clear and hazy.The night waves came up slowly, Sen Huai walked slowly with Nan Li on his back, stopped to rest when tired, the two of them didn't speak, just listened to the wind.

Sen Huai feels that there is no moment that makes him more comfortable than now.He has been cheerful since he was a child, and everyone he knows subconsciously entrusts him with the task of enlivening the atmosphere, and he is also willing to ease the embarrassing silence.But I don't know that getting along with people can also be quiet.Feel it, but don't disturb each other, and even because of the existence of the other party, you can feel at ease.

Go to the eaves of the moon, walk through the bluestone alley, and walk into the mossy stone road. There is a big hall beside the road. There is a projector in the big hall, and some movies are occasionally shown in the big hall.Now there is a lot of noise inside, and an Erha outside is digging the soil under its paws. Suddenly, he raised his head and saw Nan Li on Sen Huai's back. He barked, and then pushed the dug soil towards them with his paws. , with a cold face, as if some handover ceremony was going on.

Senhuai chuckled lightly: "Xiaobai?"

"elder brother."

Sen Huai paused, the voice in his ears was as bright as a spring, and he felt pleasure from the hair on the top of his head to the nails on his toes.

"Hey." Senhuai responded, supported the people behind him, and continued to walk forward. While walking, he smacked the sound just now, and felt that there was still a hint of coquettish taste, and his steps became brisk. Entering the threshold of the Jiuchun Building, the candlelight inside the building shines on the red mole that looks like a gold border, which is really dazzling.

After a day of exhaustion, Senhuai went downstairs holding the hand warmer, found Nanhe in the tea room, suppressed the excitement in his heart, went in and sat down and poured himself a cup of hot tea.

"Where's Xiao Li?" Nan He asked.

Sen Huai gently shook the tea in the cup, "His foot is twisted a bit, I applied the medicine just now, it's better to stay upstairs tonight." Sen Huai continued to shake the tea.

"Have you had dinner yet?" Nan He looked at the tea in his hand and asked again.

"When I came back, I ate a bowl of wontons by the side of the road. He doesn't like dumplings." Sen Huai was still shaking the tea.

Nan He picked up his crutches and tapped on Sen Huai's hand: "Do you still want to drink tea, this pot of Tieguanyin, what are you shaking?"

Senhuai was not annoyed, put down the teacup in his hand, took the hand warmer on the table, looked at Nanhe, leaned closer and said, "Old man, change the name of that Erha in the Great Hall?"

Nan He was slightly stunned, silently swallowed the ice-cold tea in his hand, and said, "I just called you brother, look at your shyness." Then he smiled gratifiedly.

Sen Huai was happy in his heart, and suddenly thought: "Does Xiao Li have a photographic memory?"

Nan He paused for the hand holding the kettle, then took it back, looked at the pool outside the window, and said for a long time, "Not before the age of 12."

Sen Huai frowned upon hearing this, and was about to ask in detail, but was interrupted by Nan He.

"It's getting late, go to bed, tomorrow you take Xiao Li to buy new year's goods."

The next day, the sun was already up three poles, and when Sen Huai went downstairs, the pavilion outside the building was already full There are thin.Senhuai stretched her neck and looked for a while, but she couldn't see a certain kaolin flower.

"Brother, eat." Just as he wondered where Nan Li had gone, Sen Huai heard a voice.

Mori Huai smiled and said, "Hey, here we come."

After eating breakfast and lunch together, Sen Huai and Nan Li went to the town's market to buy new year's goods.

The market was lively, people walked side by side, so the two of them simply bought along the stalls.There happened to be an aunt in front who was good at bargaining, and Senhuai watched as the aunt finished talking about the price, and Nan Li followed behind with a serious look on her face and said that I would also buy a share, almost holding back her internal injuries.

At the beginning, Nan Li simply followed up, but later on whether it was intentional or not, only he himself knew.

This mouth is going to be hard to close today, Mori Huai thought with a smile, but for Gao Lingzhihua's self-esteem, it's better for him to change the topic.

"Why didn't Aunt Qin come today?"

"Grandpa asked Aunt Qin to do the New Year's shopping."

Suddenly, there was a noise in front, but after a while, there were only a few people around.Sen Huai raised his head and could only see Wu Ya crushing a group of people's heads. The aunt ran over when she heard the first cry, leaving the son of the walnut seller and Nan Li looking at each other in blank dismay.

Before the shopping was finished, Sen Huai led Nan Li around from outside the circle of people, and the voices of the quarrel attacked with momentum that even a flesh wall could not stop.

"Why, could it be that you fell in love with this old man again?"

"What are you talking about, bitch?!"

The few aunts who couldn't squeeze in outside were desperately tiptoeing, their heads stretched forward like students who had only a few minutes left in the exam but didn't write anything.

"Who's the woman with the hair clipped? I haven't seen it before." An aunt resigned herself from the uncle's shoulders in front of her, trying to set up a temporary base for eating melons outside.

"You don't know? Zhou Fang's."

"Zhou Fang? I know, I know, the one who bought a daughter-in-law from outside. That's the daughter-in-law he bought back. It's not that bad."

The quarrel inside gradually subsided, and the aunts squeezed out of the circle one after another when they saw that they were bored. Unexpectedly, there was a stronghold for eating melons outside, and they joined the gossip team again.

"Hey, isn't Zhou Fang gone?"

"No? Why not?"

"I was building a new house for the college student of the Tian family, but a brick fell and killed him."

"That's right, you said it's unlucky to die in a new house. I heard that the bride of Lao Tian's family was so angry that she didn't want to marry, but she was a beautiful girl from the city. Lao Tian gave his precious jade ring to the girl. I don't know if I'm coming back or not."

"Tell me again, I haven't figured it out yet, can a brick fall and kill a person?"

"Hey, you can say Zhou Fang, my old man also went to help, I know. Oh, there are still melon seeds, don't want, okay, let's get some, let's continue. At that time, everyone else went back for lunch Zhou Fang stayed alone, saying that his mother-in-law would bring him meals. Who knows, a brick fell off, and my old man said that there was a big bag on his head, without a drop of blood, and he was dead. gone."

"Not a single drop of blood? Then why did you just go?"

"Never mind him, where is his wife?"

"I heard it was cutting the window grilles. It was dark there, so I didn't pay attention to the time."

"Ah, so. I've never heard her cry for such a big event."

"Her mother-in-law was bought by him. You know that Zhou Fang is either smoking or drinking. Her mother-in-law must wish for him to die. Seeing that he is gone, it is too late to hide and have fun."

"That's not necessarily true. She will be a widow if she loses her husband. She still has two children. What is she planning?"

"What's the picture? They have a big picture. Jiuchunlou knows that they are thinking of Dr. Nan."

"Why is Dr. Nan involved?"

"You don't know, Zhou Xiaoqin. Just because of her name, Zhou Xiaoqin went to Jiuchunlou to help dispense medicines because she had read a few books. She was honest, but when her man died, she even sent a love letter to Dr. Nan. You said Funny or not, love letter."

"I've seen it, I've seen it too, what else is written in the love letter, you are my salvation, redemption, yes, it makes me sour. No matter how old you are, you are not ashamed."

"Then Doctor Nan agreed?"

"No way, our doctor Nan is kind-hearted, and now we let her stay as a helper."

"She has the face to keep?"

"[-]% still think about Dr. Rennan."

"Huh? It's only been two months since she lost her man, and she's been working as a helper for several years."

"Speaking of which, she should have fallen in love with Dr. Nan a long time ago. She won't be happy when her man is gone."

"This good brick will fall as soon as it is said, who knows."

"Hey, aren't you the one who quarreled with Zhou Xiaoqin just now? You said you fell in love with that uncle, what's the matter?"

"Hmph, that bastard, don't be a widow, go out to hook up with men, and don't look at yourself."

"Then come and tell us."

"Don't talk, go back and cook."

"What a disappointment. Let's continue. These melon seeds are delicious. Where did you buy them?"

Sen Huai took the hickory-flavored melon seeds that were agreed, looked at Nan Li who had paid, and asked with his eyes, Nan Li shook his head, the majesty of the elders was as majestic as pasting a window, and the most feared thing was being smashed by the younger generation.

"Little Li?"

After the crash, it will be revealed that it will be the shadow puppets that the adults have disguised. Compared with the flash of surprise of the children, the adults are at a loss, even ridiculous.

Aunt Qin rubbed her hands, not knowing what to say.

"Aunt Qin, we still have sweet potatoes to buy. Do you know where they are?" Nan Li's cold and normal tone made Aunt Qin relax a lot. She shook her lips and sucked her nose before pointing to a place. road.

"Over there, over there."

An old man was squatting at a stall by the side of the road. The ground in front of him was padded with sacks, and nine purple-red sweet potatoes were neatly arranged on it, and there was a bulging sack next to it.

Aunt Qin negotiated a good price with the old man skillfully, and paid the money first.Sen Huai and Nan Li glanced at each other, without saying a word, they walked back together with Aunt Qin carrying the big and small bags.

"What does Xiao Li plan to use sweet potatoes for? I can only cook them in a pot. Dr. Nan said that you are good at cooking. You can make stewed fish with sauce and grilled fish with just fish. This sweet potato is soft. You can make sweet potato cake and sweet potato. Cake and sweet potato soup are both good.”

Nan Li looked at Sen Huai helplessly, now he regretted calling Aunt Qin to stop just now.

"Oh yes, I'm sorry, after talking so much, you don't like talking very much, I just, just."

"Aunt Qin, I'll call after Xiao Li. Of course Xiao Li is amazing, but we plan to bake sweet potatoes on a charcoal fire plate, which is convenient and delicious. We can't finish this bag, so you can take some later Go back and try it?"

Senhuai's eyes on the flower next to him are very helpful, not to mention that the child is kind-hearted. Aunt Qin knows that he is not good at words, so she could just keep silent like this, but she looks at him who can activate the atmosphere more, and wants to give the anxious Qin Auntie, a little comfort.

"Okay, okay." Aunt Qin only answered, her voice trembling unbearably.

There was a fork in the road ahead, a rooster jumped up the stone steps, raised its head and crowed.Nan Li stopped and handed the bag of sweet potatoes to Aunt Qin. Aunt Qin took out two. Her eyes were as red as the sweet potatoes in her hand. She waved her hand and walked towards the fork in the road.

Before Nan Li and Sen Huai took two steps, they were stopped by Aunt Qin who came back. Her voice was hoarse and frosted: "Xiao Li, tell Dr. Nan for me, 'I'm not drunk, I'm drunk. I just like you.'"

Nan Li flipped through the book in his hand, glanced at Sen Huai who had been looking at him, and finally closed the book.

"I'll tell."

"Hey, you can see all of this." Sen Huai replied with a smile.

After coming back yesterday to pass the message to Nanhe, Mori Huai's curiosity about Aunt Qin was about to burst out. This morning, she tried her best to chat with Aunt Qin, and before dinner in the evening, she sighed to the dusk: Qingshan is still the same. Now, how many times is the sunset red!

The three characters "Sunset Red" were read to Nanhe very emotionally.

"I don't know much about Aunt Qin's previous affairs. Grandpa found Aunt Qin at Window Flower Po. Aunt Qin had been working there before. Grandpa said that Aunt Qin's thin gold script was good, so he asked a casual question. Unexpectedly, Just find a helper."

Sen Huai nodded. Aunt Qin had a very bookish look on her brows, and her manner and conversation were not vulgar. She presumably shared the same interests with Mr. Nan, and after working together for a long time, they naturally developed feelings for each other.Sen Huai watched Nan Li take a sip of tea, and waited for him to continue talking, never thinking that he would pick up the book he had put down.

"Stop talking?"

"It's over."

"that's it?"

Nan Li looked puzzled, he didn't quite understand what else Sen Huai wanted to hear.

"Then what happened to Aunt Qin's words?"

"Aunt Qin was drunk to deliver the letter that day. Grandpa didn't accept it, so Aunt Qin read it. When she was sober, she became sober." Seeing Sen Huai motioning for him to continue, Nan Li thought for a while and said, "She is indeed drunk. wrong."

This little ancestor, Senhuai laughed and scolded in his heart, "Then why didn't Grandpa Nan accept him? Isn't it because Aunt Qin is drunk?"

"Grandpa won't accept it."

Nan Li picked up the book on the low table again, "It's like he doesn't want the electric light."

Sen Huai used a wooden spoon to pull the charcoal on the fire plate below, knowing that Aunt Qin's love was doomed to waste, but he

Looking at Nan Li, the child is more transparent than he thought.

This little flower in his family is indeed from the iceberg.
