simba and sean

Xu Jiangshan felt a little dizzy when he got off the car, his phone seemed to vibrate for a while, and he didn't know who contacted him.

He couldn't keep his eyes open, and his ears were filled with the sound of everyone's suitcases rolling and other messy noises. He stretched out his hand and waited for a taxi. After waiting for nearly 10 minutes, an empty car stopped in front of him. , After he got up, the taxi driver was a middle-aged uncle, and the uncle saw in the rearview mirror that his pale face made the red mole look like it could bleed, the driver hesitated for a moment and then asked, "Young man, are you okay? "

Xu Jiangshan "...it's okay, c206, Harmony Garden Community, T Town" seems to be a little more awake.

The driver nodded and started the car, "County R is not far from Town T, take a rest, it's only half an o'clock, and I'll call you when we arrive."

After Xu Jiangshan thanked him, he felt a little sleepy again. It was strange, why did his head hurt so much?Speaking of which, there will be a class reunion tomorrow, so it would be worthwhile to ask something, not to mention that I am so eager to know what happened to him when he was in high school.

"Young man, we're here, go back and have a good rest, look at your tired face turning pale"

Xu Jiangshan responded with a reluctant smile to the kind driver uncle, and then dragged the suitcase out of the car.

There was a cold wind blowing in front of me. The brown paint on the second floor in front of me was my home. This T town was originally used to rescue earthquake refugees, but after investigation by the government, it was found that the earthquake refugees only occupied this town. Half of the assisted houses, and the remaining half are still on the shelf. It is better to sell them at a low price to poor families with low-income households in the vicinity.

Mr. Xu heard the news and went to the government to queue up at five o'clock in the morning with a low guarantee, but it was not in vain to get the front seat, and then he went to the relevant department to see the house, and the seat was also his own. I chose it myself. It is near Xu Jiangshan High School. I spent a total of 20 yuan from renovation to buying a house. This money is the family property of Grandpa Xu and Grandma Xu for the rest of my life. To build a decent house, the second is for the convenience of Xu Jiangshan to go to school, so that he can prepare for the college entrance examination with peace of mind.

All the houses here are neat and tidy, and they look very warm. Xu Jiangshan thought to himself, if grandma used to stay in the house, she would watch by the window and look forward to her return. Now...

"Ouch!! My grandson is back!! Come on! Jiangshan!! Jiangshan! Come inside!! Don't stand there! It's too cold! Come inside!"

Xu Jiangshan took a closer look and it turned out that it was his grandfather who opened the window. Now that the snow hadn't stopped, maple leaves floated in after opening the window.

Xu Jiangshan hurried to the door, grandpa opened the door for him, Mr. Xu couldn't close his mouth from ear to ear, his half white hair was combed smoothly and tied with a black leather sheath, his face was fulfilled except for his kind eyebrows and eyes smile.

As soon as Xu Jiangshan entered the room, he let go of the suitcase and hugged Mr. Xu.

"grandfather"

Mr. Xu smiled from ear to ear, and patted him on the back, "Look, my grandson, he hasn't grown up yet, and he's been homesick for a long time since he left home."

Mr. Xu's eyes were a little sore, and he closed his eyes and tried his best not to let the tears fall.

"Okay, okay, how old are you, and you are still so self-willed, hurry up, let grandpa see, have you lost weight?"

Xu Jiangshan let go of Mr. Xu, and stood obediently for Mr. Xu to watch.

Xu Jiangshan was wearing thick clothes, Mr. Xu didn't see it clearly just now, but when he got closer, he realized that Xu Jiangshan's face was extremely pale.

Mr. Xu frowned, stomped his crutches, and said to Xu Jiangshan with a little condemnation, "Jiangshan, did you stay up all night? Why is your face so much worse than when you went there? Look at this face, which is as white as a snowdrift." !"

Seeing that the old man was angry, Xu Jiangshan hurried over to him, "Oh, grandpa, didn't I miss you, and there was no heating on the train! It was freezing to death, and I hadn't eaten all the way, so that's why it happened."

Xu Jiangshan didn't say anything about his dizziness, he didn't want Mr. Xu to worry about his body when he was old.

After hearing this, Mr. Xu immediately stopped condemning, and complained distressedly, "It's already October and the trains are still unheated. Really, your stomach still doesn't eat, because you want a stomachache!"

Xu Jiangshan took off his clothes and put them on the hanger in the living room, "Grandpa~ I'm afraid I won't be able to drink Aunt Li's pork rib soup if I'm full."

Mr. Xu pulled him to sit on the sofa, and when he heard him say that, he suddenly thought of something, "Hey! Jiang Shan, don't talk nonsense, I prepared all the ingredients myself, if my honey sauce ribs weren't my body can't keep up I must have made it myself! I think back then, it was a unique skill that made your grandma go straight to me!"

Xu Jiangshan: "Hahaha, yes, my grandma will not leave later"

Mr. Xu whispered, "Isn't that right, you are right, you warm up for a while, your Aunt Li is waiting for the pork rib soup to be cooked in the back kitchen, and there are other dishes."

Xu Jiangshan stood up and rolled up his sleeves, "Okay, okay, grandpa, let me make you a pot of tea first."

Xu Jiangshan made tea for Mr. Xu, and as soon as he walked into the kitchen, he smelled a strong scent of cinnamon, star anise, fragrant leaves and other spices. Aunt Li was chopping vegetables, and when she heard footsteps, she turned around and saw him. The movements are non-stop, but the surprise expression means that she likes Xu Jiangshan very much.

"Hey, Jiang Shan is back? Look, Auntie Li is too busy to pick you up. Your grandpa can't wait to grow a pair of hands to pick you up and cook eight dishes. He's too busy."

Xu Jiangshan smiled and walked over, "Please trouble Aunt Li, is my grandpa taking care of you okay?"

Aunt Li deftly lifted the lid of the pot to see how the soup was harvested, and said to Xu Jiangshan, "No trouble, no trouble. The old man usually drinks tea, and he does his own things. It's cold recently. I don’t like going out anymore, I don’t know what to do when I’m free all day, I can still be busy when you come back, otherwise I’m too embarrassed to ask for money.”

Xu Jiangshan helped her serve the soup out, "That's good, my grandpa is getting old, and I'm not around. Fortunately, there is such a caring person as Aunt Li. Otherwise, I would have to worry to death."

Li Xing waved her hand in embarrassment, "Look at your sweet mouth, Aunt Li praised you badly."

Aunt Li suddenly remembered the envelopes that her family kept delivering from city S before. Looking at the busy Xu Jiangshan, she decided to tell Xu Jiangshan about it after dinner.

Xu Jiangshan patiently answered questions about whether he had a girlfriend or how his life was at the dinner table. He felt that it was a very happy thing to be remembered.

Although there are few people in the house, the atmosphere in the house is very warm, and all the troubles will disappear here. What Xu Jiangshan is most grateful for is that he was thrown to his grandparents by his parents when he was a child. He should thank Xu Youcheng and Liu Yun. Their annihilated humanity brought him Surprise and love.

After the meal, Mr. Xu began to take a nap, and Aunt Li took advantage of this moment to drag Xu Jiangshan to the kitchen.

"Aunt Li, what's the matter, are you talking?"

Aunt Li stretched out her head to look at the closed door of Mr. Xu, then took out a small box from the upper cabinet, opened the top cover and handed it to Xu Jiangshan.

Xu Jiangshan looked at it suspiciously. It turned out that there were many envelopes inside...more than ten?

Aunt Li poked her head out to look again, and after confirming that it was safe, she turned around and explained in a low voice to Xu Jiangshan who was confused.

"This is from your father. Your father's handwritten letter. I've seen his handwriting is unmistakable. When the first letter came, the old man was very angry. He threw a teacup and scolded loudly. He almost Scratching myself, I was terrified, I glanced at the letter on the forehead... It should be the meaning of wanting you to recognize your ancestors, I heard that the woman he married is barren, no, remember You are here, and I have been sending this kind of letter for two months. The old man ignored him and I didn’t want to upset him, so every time he sent me a letter, I put it away and waited for you to come back and see for yourself. Go, go upstairs Look for yourself, you're not too young."

Xu Jiangshan "...well, thank you, Aunt Li"

Li Xing waved his hand, "It's all right, let's go." This poor child has no father or mother, and now he is brought up by Mr. Xu and Sister Zhao. Jun, God really blinded him and made him suffer.

Xu Jiangshan returned to the upstairs room with the box, and the room was still exactly the same as when he left.The suitcase was also carried up by Aunt Li. Xu Jiangshan sighed. He had clearly said that he didn't need Auntie to carry it. His suitcase must weigh at least forty catties.

Xu Jiangshan's room is about the same size as Xue Wei's dormitory at school, and a circle larger than Xue Wei's room. The tiles and floors are all covered with light gray woolen blankets, and the bed on the left is made of light gray cotton sheets. The house is almost the same as in Thailand, with no distinction between the floor and the bed. There is only one bed board with mattresses and quilts on it. It looks very tidy, but when I grow up, I have no place to put my legs, so I can only support it and feel uncomfortable.

Under the window on the right is a bookshelf and a desk swivel chair, which can be seen as soon as you enter the house, but compared to these, the most special thing is the threshold of his room. The threshold of a normal building is composed of a round floor and the height is less than five centimeters. His house is amazing, you can't see anything when you enter the house, but you must pay attention to the soles of your feet!

Because his threshold is more than ten inches high!It is equivalent to the wall of a building, made of ceramic tiles, polished by Aunt Li.

Why is it designed this way?

Because Xu Jiangshan's house does not separate the bed and the floor, Mr. Xu has a big brain. When designing, he discussed with the decoration uncle a method that can facilitate the burning of coal in his house.

Xu Jiangshan's house was covered with more than ten inches of tiles, and the space underneath was used to install pipes and burn charcoal fires for heating, and then Xu Jiangshan was in tragedy.

Mr. Xu has never known that this design is the same as burning kangs in rural areas. Generally, only a small area at the mouth of the pipe is hot. Mr. Xu is afraid that Xu Jiangshan will be cold, so he burns coal vigorously every time. When Xu Jiangshan used to have no blankets, he would howl when he got close to the bottom of the desk. Mr. Xu came to ask him, but he couldn't tell the truth, and every time he said that he kicked the desk.

Then there was a funny scene, Xu Jiangshan was wrapped in a quilt on the left side of the room, looking at the tiles on the right that were about to be burned, he was so cold that he rolled over for a few times, then rolled back and wrapped up in the quilt after screaming a few times Shivering, after a while he will still roll to the right a few times, screaming and coming back, and then pass by.

This back and forth is Xu Jiangshan's previous winter life.

Xu Jiangshan smiled, "Sure enough, this place is still the same as before."

The threshold was too high, and Xu Jiangshan, who forgot to wear shoes to enter, walked barefoot to the desk with a distorted expression.

"what!!"
