Nongben is passionate

Chapter 13 Thinking

The old lady was busy in the kitchen, and the small round table was already full of dishes. Xie Xuan walked over and called, "Grandma, who's here?"

The old lady turned her head and glanced at him, "I'm back, it's your grandfather's old subordinate, and there is another boy who is about your age, he is his son, did you see it in the yard?"

Xie Xuan nodded, put down her schoolbag, and walked behind the tiger stove, ready to help light the fire.

But the old lady stopped him, "You don't need to be busy, go and accompany that little guest, don't let him be bored——"

Despite the reluctance in his heart, Xie Xuan obediently left the kitchen and walked into the yard - the young man was standing under the grape trellis in the yard, looking up at the hanging fruits - the grape seedlings were planted by the old man himself Yes, in March of the lunar calendar, when the grapes were on the shelves, he built the grape trellis himself, and then watered, sprayed, pruned, and plucked the beards, all by himself according to the season. Therefore, his grandfather’s grapes grow more lush and gratifying than other people’s. In August, the coloring of the grapes attracted a lot of birds to peck at them, drove away batches after batches, sprayed with Bordeaux liquid, and the crystal clear and bright colors were covered with blue and white things. Use scissors to cut off the bunches of fruits, put them in pots, and give them to neighbors.

Now the grape season is almost over, only a few sporadic fruits are still good, the green is purple and red, most of the others have been eaten by birds, but it is also a happy thing to be eaten by birds , Birds are also neighbors and friends, they live together in a world, and it is natural to give each other generously.

Xie Xuan walked over, reached out and picked two intact grapes, and handed one of them to the boy.The boy opened his eyes wide, looked at Xie Xuan, took it with some hesitation, and held it in his hand to read.Xie Xuan wiped off the Bordeaux mixture on the surface of the grapes with his hands, peeled off the skins and ate them—it was sweet and juicy.

Following his example, the boy tentatively took a small bite, "Well, it's not bad——"

Xie Xuan picked a few more good ones for him, and he was not polite, his face was not as arrogant and rude as when they first met, chatting with Xie Xuan——

"You are also in the second year of junior high school, just like me, but you are currently thinking about your mistakes behind closed doors—" The boy looked indifferent, and he was addicted to eating grapes, so he raised his head to pick them by himself.

"Why?" Xie Xuan asked him as he leaned against a flower bed beside him.

The boy puffed up his face, and suddenly blinked slyly, "I poured paint on our dean's house—"

Xie Xuan froze for a moment, looked at him, not sure if he was joking or what, "Really?"

The boy lazily stretched his waist, with disdain in his eyes, "There is a piano competition in the city, and No.1 can go to the Vienna Conservatory of Music for free for two weeks. There is a classmate in our class. In the sixth grade, he passed the tenth grade. Everyone knew that this quota should belong to him, but the name that was finally reported was someone else. Hold tight—”

Xie Xuan asked, "Is he your friend?"

"no--"

"Why then?"

"I can't see it—"

"This kind of thing cannot be decided by the dean alone."

"I know—but someone has to take the blame."

"She called the police?"

"how do you know?"

Xie Xuan stated, "You have been punished."

The young man laughed, showing a pair of pointed canine teeth, and his brows were full of high-spiritedness unique to young people, "She thought she had messed with the underworld, so she hid at home for two days and dared not go out, haha, I laughed so hard—my dad was so angry , if my mother didn’t stop me, he would have peeled off my skin, you see, now I’m taken everywhere, and I’m almost tied to my trouser belt with a rope, it’s annoying me to death—”

Xie Xuan also smiled - this is Jiang Tiying, he has the temperament of a dandy in the prosperous Tang Dynasty - he likes to have fun, hates reading, fights cocks and dogs, raises cages to frame birds, bullies others, he is very energetic in changing ways Tossing and tossing is also mixed with a reckless spirit of a knight-errant. "Five-flowered horses, thousands of gold furs, and Hu'er will be exchanged for fine wine", "When you meet, you will drink for the king, and you will be tied to a horse, a tall building and a weeping willow." Thinking about, not thinking about, saying what you want to say, doing what you want to do, being open and frank, a real villain, a real gentleman.

Of course, the premise is that he has an amazing dad.

Lunch was ready soon, Xie Xuan brought Jiang Tiying into the dining room, just as the old man and two people came out of the living room, walking side by side with the old man was a middle-aged man in military uniform, followed by another younger man, It's the guard.Seeing them, the old man greeted Xie Xuan with a smile on his face, pointed to the middle-aged soldier beside him and said, "San'er, Uncle Jiang—"

"Hello, Uncle Jiang!" Xie Xuan called out kindly, thinking, this is Jiang Tiying's father.

This Jiang Yizhou, who is always called "Chief" wherever he goes now - is of medium build, he does not sloppy when he sits up and stands up. There is a kind of mellowness of a politician, who is well versed in the way of dealing with people——

"Okay, okay—" He patted Xie Xuan's shoulder affectionately, "I heard from your grandfather that you are also in the second grade of junior high school, and you happen to be in the same grade as Tiying, and you just make friends—" He turned to the old man and said, "I saw this child is calm, much better than our brat, and the company commander will take care of him—"

The old man waved his hand and said with a smile: "He has the same temperament as his grandmother, I don't care about everything, if it is really my soldiers, how can they stand up to the test with their small body, the first one is not qualified!"

Jiang Yizhou echoed, "That is, when the company commander was here, which one of the duels didn't we win the battle, and the soldiers you brought out would never disgrace you when they went out."

The old man's face was full of red, and he laughed loudly. His voice was full of pride and nostalgia—although he later rose up in military ranks, what he missed the most and was the happiest was when he was in the company. Day and night, he practiced the gang of arrogant soldiers, and the most proud thing was that his soldiers took back pennants.

Jiang Yizhou turned his gaze to Xie Xuan again, "I heard that you love reading, what kind of books do you read?"

Xie Xuan glanced at the old man, and replied honestly, "All of them."

Jiang Yizhou didn't seem to expect such an answer, he was stunned for a moment, and then laughed, "Oh, the ambition is quite lofty, be careful if you can't chew it off, the gain will outweigh the loss!"

"Good at reading, don't ask for deep understanding, every time I get acquainted, I will happily forget to eat—" The little boy said this passage with clear eyes, which caused the young chief who was only joking to be a little dazed, the boy's eyes flickered, and he was a little shy She explained shyly, "I've been reading "Mr. Wuliu's Biography" recently, and I feel that the attitude of reading should be like this, and should not be too purposeful."

The apologetic young chief had more surprise and admiration in his eyes, and nodded in agreement, "It should be like this, it's rare for you to have such a disposition at such a young age—" He turned his head and joked to the old man, "Company commander, this I believe that your grandson is really not trained by you!"

The old man laughed and didn't say much.

The Jiang family father and son did not stay long, and left after eating.Xie Xuan stood in the yard, and from the window of matts, he could see that the old man was still sitting on the chair and smoking. ?”

The old man waved his hand, "I've already stepped back, what can I do, it's just some personnel transfer, he wants me to help him."

The old lady said worriedly: "In the past, you were most annoyed by those human relationships. When people came to intercede, you drove them out politely, without any mercy. With your temper, who doesn't know?"

The old man said half jokingly and half seriously: "It's because I don't sell anyone's face. It's really useful if I say a word. Heck, these boys are like human beings——but, after all, I brought them out." Bing, help if you can, Xiaojiang is still good—not to mention—” The old man paused, and then said, “In a few years, all my comrades in arms will also retire. No more, it's all over the world of another family - while there is still some influence, we should also make some connections, and in the worst case, if there is an emergency, San'er can also have a helper in the future, the situation of his family - "

At this point, both the old man and the old lady were silent.

Xie Xuan endured sore eyes and went upstairs to the piano room, opened the piano cover, and played the piano all afternoon by himself.
