Siheyuan, I want to lie down but I become a tool

Bai Xiaoya had already picked up a bunch of grapes and started washing them. She replied as she washed them:

"How fresh! There are so many wild grapes in the mountains. They are as resistant to cold as humans. The ones in the village should have grown by now. Third Aunt is watching over them for me. She always saves the best for me!"

Watching the other party happily eating grapes, Zhang Xingwang gained a new wave of strange knowledge. After staying for a while, he was ready to say goodbye. After all, he had to stay in the guesthouse first.

After hearing this, although Bai Xiaoya said that Zhang Xingwang was too pretentious, she still planned to go with him. After asking and finding out that the guesthouse was not far away, Zhang Xingwang went alone.

Although Bai Xiaoya has short legs, her appearance is really good. Let alone being misunderstood, what if her boyfriend suddenly shows up?

I found the guesthouse by asking two aunts. After putting my things down, I took a nap. When I got up, I saw that it was almost time, so I prepared to go to Aunt Liu's house for dinner.

Looking at the idle aunt in the guesthouse, he took out a handful of melon seeds and replied casually:

"Aunt, is there any reason why you call each other sister first and sister later?"

After hearing this, the aunt became excited and kept asking him whether his girl had agreed. Zhang Xingwang comforted himself, thinking that it was probably his passive attribute that was causing trouble again. Ignorance is not a crime, and then he strolled to Aunt Liu's house.

Aunt Liu was very enthusiastic when he entered the room. She kept asking him what he had been doing for the past six months. She looked like she hadn't had a good chat for a long time. Seeing that Zhang Xingwang was slow to answer, she finally asked and answered the questions herself. It seemed that Director Wang had said everything she needed to say, and she just wanted someone who would listen to her...

While Bai Xiaoya was going back to the bedroom to get something, Aunt Liu took Zhang Xingwang's hand and asked:

"Xiao Zhang, you've been with her all day today. Have you seen Xiaoya's boyfriend?"

Zhang Xingwang was confused and asked:

"You haven't seen Aunt Liu? I haven't seen her anyway!"

Aunt Liu said helplessly after hearing this:

"It seems she's not from the city. I noticed something was wrong with her after she came back from the village. I kept asking her for a long time before she told me. She's very close to you. If you find out, tell Aunt Liu."

Zhang Xingwang first thought of the two hairy guys from the next village, and he had a bad feeling about what was going on...

While eating, Aunt Liu looked at the two people who were eating, and the more she looked, the more she felt something was not right. After all, for so many years, this guy was the only one her second daughter could play with.

"Xiao Zhang, I heard that you are now the section chief. You are really a good kid. How is your illness?"

Zhang Xingwang looked at the smile on Aunt Liu's face and the worry in her eyes, swallowed the food in his mouth, and replied slowly:

"I have a good leader at work. I am not ambitious. I am fine as long as I can get by. This disease is sometimes better and sometimes worse. I can't tell..."

After listening to this, Aunt Liu thought that this child was quite free and easy, and then asked:

"What did Third Aunt show you last time? This damn girl won't tell you no matter how much I ask!"

Zhang Xingwang looked at Bai Xiaoya strangely and said vaguely:

"He just felt my pulse and didn't say anything."

Aunt Liu was obviously stunned after hearing this, and asked in surprise:

"Just taking the pulse? What else did you say? Tell me in detail!"

Zhang Xingwang was a little embarrassed, turned his head and replied casually:

"She said that my body was deficient and asked me to eat something to replenish my yin..."

Bai Xiaoya, who had been silent, interrupted and said to Zhang Xingwang seriously:

"Third Auntie said you'd better go over there again."

Zhang Xingwang thought that he couldn't get a letter of introduction to other places, so he took the opportunity to reply:

"I'm fine, but I'm not feeling unwell like Third Auntie said."

Bai Xiaoya seemed a little unhappy after hearing this, and replied with gritted teeth:

"You go when I'm told to go. That's not manly at all. But I want to go with you too."

Aunt Liu couldn't sit still any longer and replied unhappily:

"What are you going to do? You've just been working peacefully for a few days. It's not your summer vacation. You should just stay here and work hard."

Bai Xiaoya was suddenly filled with impotence and rage. She rolled her eyes and leaned over to whisper something into Aunt Liu's ear.

Aunt Liu's eyes lit up after hearing this. She first breathed a sigh of relief and then said with a stern face:

"Don't lie to me, or I'll find your sister!"

While Bai Xiaoya was washing the grapes, Aunt Liu took Zhang Xingwang's hand and said earnestly:

"Just go and see the doctor with peace of mind. I think after Third Aunt's treatment, you can live another year or two. Listen to Aunt Liu. It's better to live a miserable life than to die a good death. Your mentality is okay..."

Zhang Xingwang was very upset after hearing this, but given his personality, he really couldn't explain. He could only reply, "I'm in a good mood."

If the news of my recovery gets to Director Wang, I will be worse off than the donkey in the production team. Unless I leave Tongluo Ancient Alley, I will never be able to rest in peace for the rest of my life...

Aunt Liu looked at Zhang Xingwang, a hint of helplessness in her eyes, and then she said:

"Xiao Zhang, don't blame your Aunt Liu for being blunt, but Aunt Liu's words are not rude. The main thing is that your illness is really not very good."

After finishing speaking, he continued with a look of emotion:

"I finally found a guy who can talk to Xiaoya. Even if you are missing some limbs, I will still match you two up. But you..."

Zhang Xingwang pinched his nose and said yes helplessly. He couldn't figure out for a long time how much of the compliment was there. Aunt Liu was too honest in her words...

Bai Xiaoya, who brought the grapes over, invited everyone to eat them together. She reluctantly gave some to Aunt Liu, but Aunt Liu snatched the plate away from her and threatened with bared teeth:

"He is becoming more and more ignorant and has even learned to protect his food."

Aunt Liu ate each bite of rice with a smile on her face. Zhang Xingwang had a rare moment of peace and quiet, and then he said goodbye.

After going out, he looked at the unfamiliar road in front of him, smiled bitterly, and asked in the direction of Pigeon Market.

Sure enough, she heard a familiar shout on the road. The little girl seemed to have noticed something and turned to look at Zhang Xingwang who was walking towards her. The running and hugging that she had imagined did not happen at all.

The little girl looked at a loss. She straightened her clothes and looked at him with tears in her eyes.

The little hand holding the corner of the clothes turned pale, and after a long while, she said in her soft voice:

"elder brother!"

His voice was still as beautiful as before, and his volume was as high as before, which instantly destroyed the atmosphere of the reunion...

"Your eyes are not right. Why are you crying when my brother is here?"

After hearing this, the little girl began to fight against the tears in her eyes. She stubbornly tilted her head back to prevent the tears from falling. Then she tried hard to give Zhang Xingwang a tearful smile and said with a sobbing voice:

"Brother...come to see me, I am...happy"...

This picture and smile were immediately engraved in his mind. Before he could even sigh, the picture changed...

The girl wiped her tears, hurriedly picked up a skinny sweet potato, and handed it to him like a treasure:

"Brother, let me give you some sweet potatoes."
