189 Jiaer and Lingyis phone calls
The crescent moon was shining in the middle of the night, and the stars were rising to the first light. After dinner, people in the village moved their horses and pitched them upwind in front of the courtyard, gathering together to enjoy the cool weather.
In front of the house of the Gu twins' second grandmother's house is a wide open space. Many farmers choose to play here during the grain drying season in May. At this time, there are also a dozen old people, women and children gathered, making it very lively.
Gu Jiaer sat behind her second grandma, her eyes constantly circling the ground. Sometimes the girl looked up at the night sky in boredom, and sometimes she stood up and moved around.
Until it annoyed Wen Yi next to him.
"If you want to call, just call."
Wen Yi rolled his eyes at Gu Jiaer.
"Your dad is rich, and it's not like our family can't afford the phone bill."
The little daughter was wandering around under his nose, sometimes looking for ants, sometimes humming, and she was distracted the whole night.
He must be thinking about someone.
While I was here, my mind drifted to the other side of the village, to the courtyard of the house named Lu.
"How come I learned exactly the same thing as your father?"
Gu Jiaer was absent-minded and wandered back and forth. Wen Yi felt that this was more proof that the youngest daughter was the biological child of her husband Gu Yan.
It is impossible to say that these two fathers and daughters are so alike in this matter.
"Good habits are not learned, but annoying habits are learned in a formal way."
"Mom~"
Gu Jiaer ducked her little feet, and her small soft leather shoes made a protesting sound on the smooth stone ground.
Wen Yi didn't care about his little daughter anymore, and leaned over again, listening to the second grandma's old story about the family's misfortunes between the East and the West.
"Five, four, three..."
Wen Yi muttered about counting in a low voice, and the second grandma turned her eyes over: "Xiao Yi, what are you mumbling about?"
"Two, one - Auntie, it's time for you to accompany your niece and granddaughter back to the house."
Wen Yi smiled confidently, like a director who knew the script by heart.
As soon as the words left his mouth, it turned out to be true.
Gu Jiaer eagerly nuzzled behind her second grandma: "Second grandma, is the door locked at home? Can you give me the key? I'll go get my phone."
Before the second grandma could react, Gu Jiaer's little hand stretched out and easily took out a bunch of keys hanging on her waist.
"Hey, Jia'er, wait for grandma, the lock in the back room is hard to open, and you don't know how to turn the key -"
The second grandma followed Gu Jiaer's running figure back to her yard. Gu Lingyi, who was staying in the corner and did not dare to chat with the neighbors, immediately seemed to have grabbed a life-saving straw and rushed back.
in the house.
"These two double-yolk eggs are really..."
Wen Yi saw his twin daughters running away faster than the other, and shook his head helplessly.
…
Gu Jiaer ran without stopping and entered the main room. In front of the TV cabinet, two mobile phones were charging.
Gu Jiaer grabbed one of the mobile phones with a small dinosaur pendant, and waved the pendant twice in the air. The cute little green dinosaur seemed to be grinning at Gu Jiaer.
When Gu Jiaer saw the little dinosaur, she was so angry that she gritted her teeth again.
It was originally a small headband pinned to Lu Man's clothes, a couple's style.
Now it's better, it's become a sister model to my own.
It's all Lu Man's big pig's trotters who are doing the bad things!
Why should I care about his situation?
The lines were arranged in my mind like this, but Gu Jiaer's body is very honest.
She looked out the window. There were a bunch of elders chatting in the shade in front of the door, and there were groups of chickens, ducks and dogs barking in the yard, which was not suitable for talking on the phone.
She looked at the bungalow in the west wing. There were stairs on the side to climb to the second floor roof.
It's a little quieter there.
Grabbing the phone and holding it tightly in her hand, Gu Jiaer went out again and passed by her second grandma and Gu Lingyi who had just come in.
"Hey, Jia'er——"
"Second grandma, let me go out for a moment!"
The second grandma did not stop her, but said something meaningful in her mouth: "This little girl can't pretend to be well-behaved for a long time in front of grandma. She is so arrogant that her true nature has been exposed again."
"Lingyi, why don't you and your sister be equal? Jia'er's temperament is half yours, and your inner beauty is half as good. You two will be fine."
Gu Lingyi watched her sister hurriedly pass by, feeling an indescribable feeling in her heart.
It seems like...I have been ignored by my sister.
In the past, even though her sister and Lu Man were in love, Gu Lingyi never felt this kind of loss when her sister was taken away.
Gu Lingyi always felt that her sister Jiaer belonged to her alone.
But now...it seems that in my sister's priority setting, Lu Man has been raised a lot, and it is faintly parallel to her own.
"What kind of thing is this?"
Gu Lingyi pursed her lips in confusion.
That is to say, it feels like Jia'er is being involved by Lu Man, and there is less concern for her sister.
It also felt like Lu Man had been diverted from some of his energy and time by his sister, even though it was not his initiative...
Why is it that after all this calculation, you are jealous on both sides?
"Ding-ding-ding-ding-ding-ding-"
Gu Lingyi's strange contemplation did not continue, and the landline phone in the room rang.
"It's so late, who's calling?" The second grandma said with doubts, and went to answer the phone slowly and leisurely.
This old-style landline phone had a gray screen. Grandma took a look at the phone number on the caller ID. She was old and couldn’t remember too many numbers, but the last four digits of the number were still very familiar.
"0122?"
The second grandma shouted to Gu Lingyi: "Lingyi, did you press your cell phone? Why did you dial grandma's number?"
"Ah? I didn't move?"
Gu Lingyi looked at her mobile phone that was still charging on the TV cabinet.
"Oh, Jia'er took the wrong phone, right?"
Gu Lingyi had a reasonable guess. She and her sister had the same cell phone model. When making calls, they would touch it casually on the bedside with their eyes closed. Whoever's phone they touched would use that person's phone.
"My sister is so lazy... It's just a short walk, run back two steps, shout louder, we can hear it in the house, it's worth a phone call..."
The phone kept ringing several times.
The second grandma counted the 11-digit phone number with her fingers.
"Oh, Lingyi, it shouldn't be yours."
The second grandma's voice came.
"This number is just a coincidence, the last four digits are the same as yours. The first number is also pretty good, oh, is it still 666?"
666?
A glimmer of light suddenly flashed through Gu Lingyi's mind, but she couldn't grasp the point.
"Hey, who are you looking for?" The second grandma picked up the receiver and already said hello.
"etc."
666!
A number followed by 6660122 belongs to Lu Man! He specially registered a new mobile phone number in Haiqu City!
"Second grandma, you are looking for me!"
Gu Lingyi swooped in at almost a sprinting speed, barely stopping.
Chapter completed!
