Wind Shakes the Barley

Chapter 44 I'm still a child

The next morning, Jiang Ma received a call from her eldest son early in the morning.

"Mom, have you eaten yet?" Jiang Xu on the other end of the phone held the phone to his ears, and he said while offering cakes to others, "It's good to eat, don't forget to send yesterday's snacks to Dr. Chang .”

"Mom?" After collecting the money, Jiang Xu took a look at the phone, confirmed that he was still on the phone, put it in his ear and said, "Mom, can you hear me over there?"

Jiang Ma on the other end of the phone was silent for a moment before slowly speaking: "Your grandma Chunlan suddenly disappeared. I was too busy yesterday so I didn't go to deliver it. I'll take it to Dr. Chang in a while."

Hearing her son's happy promise, Jiang Ma felt as if her heart was being pinched, and she was very uncomfortable. She propped herself up on the table for a while before going to the yard to look at the freshly cooked pot of sweet potatoes.

Father Jiang was stuffing firewood into it, and seeing her come out, he couldn't help but said, "You said it would be nice if you sent it over yesterday, but you have to delay it for a day. Now that the sweet potatoes are cold, you are not happy, so you have to cook a pot again. What?"

"I am willing." Jiang Ma pulled Jiang Dad away, "Go back to the house and rest, I will watch by myself."

It took a day to catch up with Sunday, and Chang Qi had a rest. Jiang's mother didn't know which dormitory Chang Qi was in. She called Chang Qi and asked Chang Qi to wait for her at the door. Chang Qi said that she would come and get her Did not agree.

Chang Qi, who was waiting at the door early, thought he was just going downstairs to get something, but after Jiang Ma said a few words, she followed him into the dormitory naturally.

Jiang Ma took a look at the environment in the dormitory. It was a bit small, but it was still well-equipped, and it looked clean and tidy, not messy at all.

She sat down on the chair, put the things on the table, and said with a smile: "This is what Xiaoxu wanted to give you yesterday. I was busy yesterday and didn't have time to bring it here. He even called me early this morning to remind me not to forget it." It's getting more and more annoying."

"He has the heart of a child." Although Chang Qi was much older than Jiang Xu, he was clearly a junior in front of Jiang Ma. It was okay to just chat casually when we met before, but now that he was sitting face to face, he suddenly felt a little nervous.He always felt that Jiang Ma came up with him specially because she wanted to tell him something, so she was very cautious when answering every sentence.

"If it's annoying, it's me. I have to trouble Aunt Yang to run around every time. Next time, I'll tell him not to do this again. I'll just go and eat when I'm free." Jiang Xu She smiled gently and spoke softly like Jiang Ma.

"No, you are so kind to him, it will be cheaper for him to make a few meals." Jiang Ma pointed to the boiled sweet potatoes that she brought, "It was just boiled this morning, and it is still hot, you hurry up Taste it sweet or not."

"You don't need to taste it to know that the ones Aunt Yang picked for me are definitely the sweetest." Chang Qi picked up one, peeled the skin, and took a bite. "It's very sweet, thank you Aunt Yang."

Jiang Ma smiled and waved her hand: "You like to eat it, and I will bring it to you next time I cook it."

Chang Qi hastily refused: "Don't bother, I'll just eat these."

"It's okay. In the past, at this time every year, Xiao Xu had to cook several pots of sweet potatoes, cut them into dried sweet potatoes, and if he was still at home, he would definitely get them for you." Jiang Ma stared at Chang Qi for a while, and suddenly Ask, "Dr. Chang is 25 this year. I heard from Xiao Xu that you are still dating? Have you never looked for it before?"

Jiang Ma's topic changed quickly, but Chang Qi cheered up, secretly said, here it is, it seems that this is the point of Jiang Ma following him.

"There is no suitable one, so I haven't looked for it all the time. I'm not in a hurry anyway."

He was worried that Jiang Ma would also tell him a date, so he said "no hurry".

"You're not young anymore, you have to hurry up on this matter, didn't the adults at home urge you?"

"My family is relatively free. We let us handle these things ourselves, and my parents don't care." Chang Qi is telling the truth. What his parents often say to him and his sister is "you can figure it out."

"That's not bad." Jiang Ma nodded and smiled, "When you first came, many people saw that you were handsome and had a good job, so they wanted to introduce you to someone. At that time, I persuaded them that you are from a big city. , if you want to find it, you must find someone from the right family, don’t you think? They are just worrying about it.”

Chang Qi just smiled and said nothing, emotionally he was a bit idealistic and wanted to go along with fate, but he didn't refute what Jiang Ma said, so that if he just said that he didn't mind the family, someone would introduce him to him tomorrow.

Jiang Ma looked at Chang Qi's expression and didn't say anything more. She got up and was about to leave. Chang Qi also stood up and went to deliver it, but Jiang Ma suddenly turned around and opened the box of snacks that Jiang Xu gave him: "By the way, Dr. Chang, find a chance to help me talk about the sequel. He is so busy every day, and he still does all these fancy things, and he won’t sell them for a penny. It would be nice to have this time to rest or read a book. I don’t know him. What does it mean to have a dice printed on it?"

Chang Qi glanced at it, and the five pieces of red bean cakes in the box really looked like dice. He didn't think there was anything wrong with making them, but he comforted him: "Maybe some people like these fresh ones. Tricks, but what you said is right, next time I will tell him to let him rest more and read more books when he has time."

Jiang Ma glanced at Chang Qi, nodded and said "Yes".

Chang Qi didn't know if it was his own illusion, he always felt that this good tone was a little lower than when he spoke before.

After Jiang Ma left, Chang Qi sent a text message to Jiang Xu to say he had received it.Before, every time he received red bean cakes, he would send Jiang Xu a message. This time Jiang Ma received Jiang Xu's call this morning, probably because Jiang Xu didn't receive his text message, so she was in a hurry.

Thinking that it was just for this reason that Jiang Xu called to urge people, he had the urge to pat Jiang Xu's head, it was just a box of red bean cakes, Jiang Ma would definitely deliver it, is it necessary to make a special call to remind him again? !

Jiang Ma walked out of the hospital, met acquaintances on the way to say hello, and stopped to smile and talk to them.When we parted ways with others, the smile on my face disappeared in an instant, replaced by anxiety, boredom, and heartache.

She felt that her son might be paying attention to Dr. Chang. She naturally didn't want her son to like men. Although she had never heard of such a thing, she could understand after thinking about it. His son might not like women.

When this conclusion just flashed through her mind, she was so frightened that she dared not breathe for a moment. People in the countryside had never seen such a thing. If others knew about it, they might think that her son was sick. Thinking that people in the village might look at her son with all kinds of bad eyes in the future, she felt so distressed that she wanted to cry.

Rather than letting her son be judged and judged in the village later, she would rather his son live happily elsewhere.

She doesn't know if the two men can be together, but if there is a chance, she hopes that her son can fulfill his wish.

Unfortunately, based on what Dr. Chang said just now, she didn't feel that Dr. Chang was the same person as her son.

Even though Dr. Chang likes men, she may not necessarily like her son, but knowing that Dr. Chang has no inclination in this regard, she still has some regrets.It's because she thought too well, her son is so ordinary, he didn't even finish high school, how could he be matched with such a capable person as Dr. Chang.

Her son's mind is doomed to fail.

Jiang Xu didn't know that his mother was worrying about him now, and when she was happily collecting the money paid by the customer, she was suddenly called out by the aunt who sold the buns next to her.

"Auntie, what's the matter?" Jiang Xu politely walked a few steps towards that side and asked.

"Looking at how busy you have been all morning, you must have not eaten yet, right?" The aunt grabbed his hand and handed him a bag of meat buns, and said with a smile, "Try my buns for you, they are absolutely delicious."

Jiang Xu subconsciously wanted to refuse. He had cakes and snacks at his place, so there was no need to take other people's buns for no reason, but the aunt's hands were strong, so he didn't push them over, so he had to accept them and went back to his stall. The aunt put a bag of cakes and snacks in front of her and gave it to the aunt. The aunt happily accepted it and looked at Jiang Xu with more kind eyes, but Jiang Xu's back was cold when she looked at him.

To get rid of this strange feeling, he was about to go back, but was held back by his aunt: "Xiao Xu, you will be eighteen soon, and it's time to meet someone. It happens that my daughter is the same age as you, She just works in a shopping mall in the county town, and she is very good at selling things, and the boss praises her for having a bright future."

"Ah?" Jiang Xu was stunned for a moment, this is... to introduce someone to him?

Later, the aunt praised her daughter again, but Jiang Xu didn't care to listen at all.nice?Can Dr. Chang look good?work well?Can a regular doctor work well?And he's not interested in girls at all, okay?But the aunt held his hand tightly, Jiang Xu looked at the eager eyes of the aunt, and suspected for a moment that the aunt wanted to snatch him...

"Mom!" Just as she was speaking, a girl with a ponytail and delicate features walked over in the distance.

Jiang Xu only glanced at it, but didn't know why, his hairs stood on end, taking advantage of his aunt's relaxation, he immediately pulled his hand: "I'm still a child, aunt, I'm not looking for a partner!"

After speaking, he went straight to his stall, packed up, got on his bike and ran away.

After returning to the rental house, Jiang Xu breathed a sigh of relief, and made up his mind that he would never set up a stall there again.

I came back early today, and I should have read some books, but Jiang Xu felt a little sluggish after being so frightened just now.Then he remembered that many girls asked for Dr. Chang's phone number before, so he picked up his phone and sent a message to Dr. Chang.

"Someone just wanted to introduce someone to me."

Maybe Dr. Chang was busy, and it took a while to get a reply: "Who? Stay away from him in the future."

Jiang Xu hugged his phone and smiled: "Well, I ran away."

"good."
