Ji Lixuan saw that he looked familiar, and couldn't remember it for a while, but his mother waved happily: "Uncle Zhou, I haven't seen you for so many years, and your body is still so strong."

Ji Lixuan remembered that he was here. This was the village chief who took good care of their family when he lived in Baishui Village, so he nodded politely: "Grandpa Zhou."

Village Chief Zhou stepped forward, his eyes fell on Ji Yang, and the wrinkles on his face smiled cheerfully: "Is this Yang Yang? It has grown so big in a blink of an eye. The last time I saw you, you still A small glutinous rice dumpling as tall as my knee."

Ji Yang was only four or five years old when he left Baishui Village, and he had no memory of him, so he raised the corner of his mouth and laughed twice, but he was also clever, and followed Ji Lixuan to call Grandpa Zhou.

Village head Zhou stepped forward and took out a bunch of keys from his pocket: "Xiuying, don't waste your time, your keys can't be opened. A few years ago, the village was attacked by thieves, and your door lock was picked." , I couldn’t get in touch with you, and then the village replaced it with a new one for you.”

Ji's mother was a little shy, and stepped back two steps: "Please, please."

The village chief opened the door for them. The courtyard was dilapidated and desolate. The fallen leaves had accumulated for many years, and the thick layer made the soles of shoes soft when stepped on.Grandpa Zhou and Grandpa Ji Lixuan used to be sworn brothers, and they had a very good relationship. After the death of Grandpa and Grandma Ji Lixuan, they also took good care of their daughter and grandson.

The house that has been vacant for more than ten years must be cleaned before people can live in it. Grandpa Zhou went to his house and called his children and grandchildren to help.Ji Lixuan was sweeping the yard when he saw a tall alpha walking in, with single eyelids, dark skin, rather fierce face, but with a simple and honest expression, he seemed to be a person who didn't like to talk much.

When the two sides met each other, they both froze for a moment.Ji Lixuan went to see Grandpa Zhou, but Grandpa Zhou walked around behind the tree in the yard to look at the eaves, he hesitated for a moment, and said hello: "Hello?"

But this alpha looked at him directly, as if he was stunned, and didn't answer for a long time.

Grandpa Zhou came out from behind the tree and shouted loudly: "Zhou Bai! There is a hole in the eaves, come and fix it."

Village Chief Zhou's grandson is an alpha who served as a soldier, half a month older than Ji Lixuan, and was called by his grandfather to mend the hole.He had finished mending, but Ji Lixuan's land hadn't been swept yet, there were too many and too thick fallen leaves, mixed with melted frost and snow, it was wet, cold and dirty.The pile of leaves in the trash can was spiky, and some slipped out, the alpha saw it, walked over and stepped on the leaves firmly, and helped Ji Lixuan dump all the leaves in the dustpan.

"Thank you. Your clothes are all dirty, I'm sorry, are you okay?" Ji Lixuan handed him a cup of hot tea.

Zhou Bai shook his head, without saying a word, before Ji Lixuan asked, he took the tea and took a big gulp.

Ji Lixuan was a little shocked, is this boiling water?Is your mouth okay?

But judging by Zhou Bai's appearance, it seemed that nothing was wrong.If it was Rong Jing, he would have put down his teacup with a frown.

Realizing that he was thinking of Rong Jing, Ji Lixuan was surprised, he didn't know why he suddenly thought of him, maybe it was because he hadn't seen him for a long time, so he couldn't help thinking about it in his heart.It's not an emotion like worry, just like meeting a puppy on the way to work, but it's enthusiastic, circling in front of you all day long, and suddenly disappears for a while, and you can't help but think about what he is doing now.

Ji Lixuan watched Zhou Bai put down the water glass. At this time, he was also helping with the work, and he didn't intend to leave. It's always bad to neglect guests, so he wanted to find something to talk about: "We played together when we were young, you remember?"

Zhou Bai just nodded, but still didn't speak.The memory of his childhood is already very blurred, if he didn't see him suddenly, he would not have found this person in Ji Lixuan's memory.However, in my vague impression, I also remembered that this person had a character of three sticks that couldn't get a fart when he was a child, so he didn't mind it, and just asked: "Is there something dirty on my face?"

This is a question that can't be avoided no matter whether he nods or shakes his head. Zhou Bai was silent for a while, and replied as short as possible: "No." There is no dirty thing.

Judging by the way he spoke, Ji Lixuan always had the feeling that he was forcing him. He was quite puzzled, touched his face and said, "You have been staring at me before."

Zhou Bai: "..." His face was burning red, but it didn't show at all. This is one of the benefits of being too dark.

Village Chief Zhou saw this scene by the window in the house, and turned to ask Ji Mu who was shaking the quilt: "I remember, Li Xuan seems to be a mediocre person?"

The older generation is still accustomed to using the name handed down from the past.The heavenly stem is against the alpha, the mean is against the beta, and the earth is against the omega.Mother Ji reacted for a long time before realizing that the mean in Grandpa Zhou's mouth meant beta. After a moment of hesitation, she nodded vaguely: "That's right."

Ji Lixuan followed the village children up the mountain to pick medicine and firewood since he was a child. He is agile and quick-witted. He is not as squeamish as an omega, but he is not as reckless as an alpha. In addition, the child did not open his eyes when he was a child. He is not as bright as he is now. Everyone thinks he is beautiful It's just a cute beta, and neither Ji's mother nor he himself has explained it.So until now, people in the village still think that the eldest grandson of Lao Pu's family is Beta.

Grandpa Zhou stroked his beard and joked, "It's more beautiful than Dikun. You can't take your eyes off my grandson. They used to play together a lot. After you moved away, Zhou Bai often Ask Xiaoxuan where he went."

"Zhou Bai is an honest man. He found Di Kun before. They thought he was not talkative and didn't know how to make people happy, so he went to marry a man from another village. After a few years, he came back and said he liked my family. I have a grandson, and I want to marry Zhou Bai. The wedding banquet was all set, and we were just waiting for the proof, but the husband came to him. It turned out that this person not only got married outside, but also gave birth to children. It made our whole family angry all night. Didn't sleep."

"It's too much." Ji's mother spread the quilt and pressed it with her hand, but it still felt hard. She reckoned that she would have to go to town to buy some thick quilts and come back.The two children in her family were spoiled and spoiled, and they must not be used to sleeping in this kind of bed.If she were herself, she could sleep in the past, but now she is used to sleeping on the soft bed at home, and if she sleeps again, she will probably suffer from back pain.

"Uncle Zhou, what did you do with it later?" She grabbed a handful of candy for Uncle Zhou.It is a rural practice to buy candy and melon seeds when I go home, but she has a bad memory and forgets that these candies are all Ji Yang's, so she didn't catch them too much because she was afraid that the little girl would make a fuss.

Uncle Zhou replied: "Let's ask Zhou Bo, do you know about this? Zhou Bo said yes, but Di Kun said that her husband beat him, so there was no other way but to find someone to marry again. Zhou Bo was soft-hearted and agreed. Yes. Alas, this child is too sincere. He was about to get married, but there was a brother of his in the Civil Affairs Bureau. When he helped to apply for a marriage certificate, he discovered that Dikun and her husband were not divorced. Bigamy is illegal in our country. He is Soldiers are especially taboo about this.”

"Later, Di Kun's husband came to the door and wanted to make trouble and beat someone, but Zhou Bai beat him up. His teeth and blood fell all over the ground. Di Kun felt sorry for her husband, and in turn accused my grandson of something wrong."

Ji's mother frowned: "how can this be?"

"After getting back together, guess what? Di Kun's husband beat him again. This time he saw it clearly, and he was determined to divorce his husband. If Zhou Bai hadn't beaten him hard, his husband wouldn't have agreed so easily. Divorce. Now he is grateful to Zhou Bai, and he takes the child to live in the east of our village, and even comes to our house for dinner during the holidays."

After hearing the gossip about other people's family, Ji's mother sighed.Village Chief Zhou said again: "Di Kun still wants to marry him now, but he doesn't like that Di Kun, I can see that. He has never looked at that Di Kun in such a dumbfounded way as he has seen Li Xuan today. I You look stupid." He shook his head and sighed.

Ji Mu heard the temptation in his tone and was amused in her heart.Xuan'er is sensible, if he likes someone, he will figure it out by himself, as a mother, she has never intervened much, she echoed a few words to fool Uncle Zhou, and then changed the subject.

After chatting for a long time, the old room was initially tidied up to look habitable, and the village chief and his grandson also planned to leave.

Before leaving, Village Chief Zhou suddenly slapped his head and said: "Oh yes, I'm confused, and the Jiang family boy also said that he came back today. Isn't it a coincidence, I have to go to his house to see Look, so as not to say that I am partial to the old man. My niece, I will go first."

Ji Lixuan heard this from the side, and saw a complicated look on his mother's face.

Jiang family?He remembered that his mother's former fiancé was Uncle Jiang from the south of the village.When he and his mother first returned to Baishui Village, life was very difficult, and Uncle Jiang helped a lot.Later, Ji's father came and his mother reunited with his father. Uncle Jiang said that he was out to work hard, but he hadn't seen him since.Unexpectedly, more than ten years later, on the day they decided to come back to celebrate the New Year, Uncle Jiang also came back, and one cannot but feel the miraculous fate.

"Uncle Zhou, go slowly. Thank you so much. If it weren't for you, we wouldn't be able to enter this door today." Mother Ji went out politely to see her off.

Ji Yang held a bag of potato chips and gnawed next to Ji Lixuan, disapprovingly said: "You can still enter the door, such an old lock, I can split it open at once."

"It's for you." Ji Lixuan raised his broom as if to hit her, "I don't do cleaning at all, and I know I'll be holding your computer to play games when I get home. I just cleaned up the place, and it's full of potato chips you dropped. , Is your mouth leaking? Go and play with Brother Lin."

"Old Lin is moving things, it's full of dust, he asked me to come out to play." Ji Yang muttered, "And this old house doesn't even have internet, how can I play games?"

Ji Lixuan rubbed her head: "I'm going to the town to buy new year's goods later, there should be network cards for sale. Aren't you going to call Dad? Go quickly."

When the grandfather and grandson walked out of Pu's house, Village Chief Zhou sighed with emotion: "Boy Jiang is back, and the village is really lively today. As for these two, they were considered a match made in heaven in the village before. What a pity, what a pity."

"Why didn't Uncle Jiang stay with Aunt Pu?" Zhou Bai said in a rare way. He was usually not interested in this kind of gossip. Today the sun came out from the west, which made Village Chief Zhou look at it in surprise. He glanced.

"They agreed to go to the city to work to save money for the wedding house. Your Aunt Pu is so beautiful that she was taken by the young master in the city. Who is the young master? Can we ordinary people fight it? Oh, hey, It’s just like that.”

"Aunt Pu is indeed very beautiful. Before moving away, the village next door had to drive a long mountain road just to come and see what she looks like." Zhou Bai thought for a while and said, "The little one She should look like that young master, but Ji Lixuan looks like her."

When Village Chief Zhou heard this, he was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth. Knowing Sun Moguo, isn't this just interesting to others.

To be an elder is to love to worry about the lifelong affairs of the younger generation. Village Chief Zhou said: "Although Li Xuan is just a mediocre person, he is well-born and has a good personality. You have also reached the age when you should marry a wife and have children. Take the initiative to attack, if you don’t talk about it, who knows what’s on your mind?”

Zhou Bai interrupted suddenly: "No."

"What isn't it?" Village Chief Zhou was at a loss.

Not mean.When he got close, he clearly smelled the sweet pheromone breath that even the cold wind could not suppress.

Is it a rose?It seems that it is not so simple, the rich aroma is mixed with the bitterness of citrus and green, which is addictive like magic.

The kitchen was cleaned up, and after lunch, Ji's mother reheated the desserts brought back from home, and asked the juniors to send some of these to the neighbors.Since I haven't come back for so many years, it's time to catch up and get some fresh air. Ji Lixuan also couldn't escape the fate of coming to each door to say hello.

Walking through the ten-meter-wide dirt road and stepping up the steps, he stood in front of the golden nanmu gate that was incompatible with the rural atmosphere, and raised his hand to knock.

One, two, three.

Did you go out?Ji Lixuan waited for a while, but before anyone answered, he was about to leave, when he turned around, the door suddenly opened behind him.

An unexpectedly familiar face appeared in sight, and Ji Lixuan opened his eyes wide in surprise.

Seeing that it was him who came, Yan Chuanqi was not too surprised. He rubbed his messy hair that was sleeping like a chicken coop, and yawned: "Are you looking for my cousin?"
