Chapter 300 : The Important Thing is the Person
Chapter 300 : The Important Thing is the Person
Rong Caixuan said goodbye to Cai Jiunv and was about to leave, but was stopped by Su Yun.
They went back to Cai Jiunv's retro old house together.
"You guys roast here slowly, I'll go get you something to eat right away." Cai Jiunv's pace seemed a little hurried.
Su Yun and her group sat on low wooden stools, surrounding a fire to warm themselves.
It was said to be roasting by the fire, but it was actually just burning charcoal in a stone jar.
Su Yun hadn't seen this ancient heating method for a long time. Although she was a child from a poor family, she could at least afford an air conditioner.
Su Yun looked down at the burning charcoal, and then at the dark sky outside the door. The door here was not the usual kind, but an old wooden door that opened from both sides.
As she looked, Su Yun imagined the scene of this old grandma sitting here alone roasting by the fire.
Su Yun tried to put herself in her shoes, and instantly felt extremely uncomfortable.
Su Yun had been playing with Cai Jiunv from noon to night, and had a lot of fun, but Su Yun found that no one was leading Cai Jiunv forward, only she was alone.
That's right, this grandma was already 73 years old.
Su Yun stretched out her hand to warm herself by the fire, silent and not saying a word.
"Mommy, where do you want to go play tomorrow?"
"I originally planned to take everyone to ride bicycles on the Huandao Road in Siming District. The bicycles have already been bought, but it feels so boring. Hey, Mommy, where do you want to go play? I'll take everyone with me." Rong Caixuan was not warming herself by the fire, but was squatting next to Su Yun and whispering, like a duck.
"Uh."
Su Yun was still thinking about the possibility that Cai Jiunv's husband was not around, but now she saw Rong Caixuan so happy.
"I don't have any place I want to go, it's fine to be with you guys." Su Yun replied perfunctorily, but this was also what she thought in her heart.
If she were alone, she would not go on a trip.
"Okay." Rong Caixuan pouted her pink little mouth, and then walked back like a duck.
Soon, Cai Jiunv brought a box of pies.
"Made of mung beans, very sweet. You guys try it."
Su Yun took the box and gave everyone five.
"Grandma, it's delicious!" Qin Xin couldn't help but praise the deliciousness of this pie after eating one.
"Delicious, thank you grandma." Qin Xuanxuan also politely thanked Cai Jiunv.
Then everyone thanked Cai Jiunv, but everyone called Cai Jiunv grandma, only Rong Caixuan called her auntie.
Su Yun was very puzzled, because Cai Jiunv was already 73 years old, and people certainly didn't care about age, so why did she still call her auntie?
However, due to the occasion, Su Yun did not immediately ask Rong Caixuan.
After eating five pies, she wandered around the house as if she were full and wanted to take a walk.
The furniture in this old house was basically made of wood, like things from the last era. Although they looked old, there was no dust on them, which was obviously often wiped by the owner of the house.
Cai Jiunv was still chatting with everyone outside, while Su Yun was walking alone inside. Unconsciously, she came to a small room with a quilt.
This should be the bedroom where Cai Jiunv usually lived.
Su Yun felt that it was very impolite to look around in someone else's sleeping place, so she planned to turn around and leave immediately.
But by chance, a photo frame on the head of the wooden bed attracted her attention.
Just look at the photo, and definitely not look at anything else.
Su Yun was very curious, so she finally walked up.
She did not pick up the photo frame, but squatted down and leaned close to look.
There were two people in the photo frame, a man and a woman.
The woman was sitting in a rocking chair. She was dressed simply and had two braids on her head, looking pure and cute, like a great beauty from the Republic of China.
The man was wearing clothes like a teacher and stood straight next to the girl. He was not very handsome, but the elegant temperament of a teacher was vividly reflected in him.
"The woman in here should be that grandma, right? She was so beautiful when she was young."
"Then the other one..."
Su Yun lay on the head of the bed and stared for a long time, until a hurried sound of footsteps came from outside the door.
"Xiaoyun, why did you run here? Xiaoxue and I looked for you in the yard for a long time and didn't see you. We thought you fell into a well while taking a walk." Cai Jiunv walked over anxiously and held her hand.
"Ah, I..." Su Yun was like a thief, so guilty that she didn't dare to speak.
And Cai Jiunv also found that Su Yun was looking at the photo she kept at the head of the bed just now.
"Grandma, do you usually live here alone?" Su Yun finally couldn't help but ask.
Cai Jiunv had long been accustomed to this kind of life, but she was stunned for five or six seconds when she heard the words.
"It's so quiet to live alone."
"And the photo you were looking at just now was taken when I was 20 years old. At that time, I was young and beautiful, and the men who wrote me love letters almost filled the yard."
"Let's go, you must be thirsty after eating the pies just now. I'll take you to drink some water."
Cai Jiunv talked about her great achievements when she was young, but she quickly changed the topic and pulled Su Yun to find water to drink.
After they finished drinking the hot water, the time also came to 7 pm. It was time to take the boat and leave with the class.
But Su Yun still didn't want to leave. She pulled Qin Xue and then spoke to Cai Jiunv.
"That, grandma, let's help call someone to fix that swing."
"I heard from others that you usually sit there to exercise, but today it was broken by us. I'm sorry." Su Yun pulled Qin Xue and apologized together.
She was going to spend an extra day here and leave after the swing was fixed.
Who knew that in the next second, Cai Jiunv shook her head.
"Thank you, Xiaoyun, you are a good child." Cai Jiunv showed a kind smile and reached out to stroke the top of Su Yun's head.
"But I'm old and my legs are not convenient. I'm afraid I won't even be able to walk there in the future. You don't need to go to great lengths to fix that old thing for me. I'll just rest at home in the future." Cai Jiunv called the swing an old thing.
"Eh." Su Yun was stunned, because she felt that Cai Jiunv's legs were still quite nimble now. If it was fixed, she could at least exercise for another ten or twenty years.
"Then let's fix one in front of the door, so you don't have to walk so far. Don't worry, we're not short of that little money." Qin Xue responded to Cai Jiunv's worries.
Since Little Sister Yun had spoken, she naturally had to complete it.
"You guys are really a good match, both are very obedient and good girls."
Cai Jiunv smiled and turned around, took out another box of pies from the house, and then told them to leave.
"Xiaoxue, you guys take this and eat it."
Qin Xue was still talking about fixing the swing, but Su Yun directly took the pies and pulled Qin Xue away.
Perhaps Qin Xue was very puzzled, but Su Yun understood.
When she was on the swing in the afternoon, she was thinking that the joy of the swing did not come from the feeling of swinging, after all, how high could this small swing swing.
The important thing was the person pushing behind.
Su Yun walked out of the courtyard gate, and Rong Caixuan and the others were waiting for them there.
"Mommy, what were you guys doing just now?" Rong Caixuan circled around Su Yun, and then found a box of pies on her body.
"Elder Sister Xue likes to eat this, we went to get something to eat."
"Ah, is that so?" Rong Caixuan looked at Qin Xue in surprise, and then carefully observed the pie box again.
She would buy a hundred of them for her daddy later.
They had a lot of fun on Hailang Island today, and they were also tired, because besides swinging in the afternoon and roasting by the fire just now, they basically didn't stop their feet all day.
So when she got back on the boat, the first thing Su Yun did was to roll into the quilt.
She had a lot of fun, but now she felt a little inexplicably lonely.
Because she was very afraid of parting.
Su Yun was curled up in the quilt, but suddenly someone opened a hole and messed up the quilt she had folded so hard.
Soon, two soft things rubbed against her face.
She didn't know, but she thought she was on the beach now and had already started playing beach ball, so big.
"It's so hot, don't squeeze me." Su Yun hummed and looked up at Qin Xue, then obediently lay on the two beach balls.
"You're not afraid of the heat. If you're shy, just say so. I can rub your buns for you to cool down." Qin Xue's voice was cold, and her words had the seriousness of a cold goddess.
But the content of her words did not match the persona of a cold goddess at all.
Su Yun rolled her eyes and was speechless: "Get lost."
"You just came yesterday and you want to do it again? Dream on, go rub yourself."
"But mine are not as handy as yours, Little Sister Yun. Not everyone is like you, as if they haven't grown up." Qin Xue looked at her with a playful expression.
