233: Grandma
233:
The morning light spreads all over the earth and the summer breeze blows by, making this historic town look even more charming.
The streets on both sides were very lively, and the breakfast shop entrance was crowded with people.
There are also hawking sounds pushing carts on the roadside.
There was a small shabby shop with sparse staff, only occasionally a few people walked in with pots.
After a while, he hurriedly left again.
"Grandma, let's have another bowl of sweet tofu brain and add more sugar."
The 80-year-old man who had just filled a pot of hot soy milk in the house responded. "Okay."
The 80-year-old man held his back and handed the pot to the young woman.
"Grandma, why are you pretending so much for me again?"
The young woman quickly took out some change from her bag and handed it to her grandma. The grandma pushed the money back.
"It's all made by yourself, and it won't cost much. If you have too much, just pretend to give it to your child and take it to school as water to drink."
"It's made by yourself, it's healthier than what you sell outside."
The grandma packed a sweet tofu brain and handed it to the woman in a neat manner.
When the young woman left, she packed the table and saw the change pressing under the cup.
The grandma shook her head and put the money alone.
At this moment, a girl wearing a mask and a man with expressionless expression stepped into the shop.
"Grandma, let's have a bowl of sweet tofu brain and polysaccharides."
Hearing this voice, the grandma raised her head suddenly, hugged her back, and hurriedly ran out from inside.
When the grandma saw the figure at the door, she suddenly burst into tears.
At this time, the girl had taken off her mask and showed a face that was even more dazzling than the morning sunrise.
The grandma held the girl's hand tremblingly. Because of her years of work, her hands were covered with thick calluses. She was worried that the girl's delicate skin would hurt, so she was afraid that she would touch her gently and dare not use too much force.
"Good kid, good kid..."
"You are finally back safely, what a good boy..."
The grandma wiped her tears and called the two of them to sit in. "You guys sit down quickly, I'll go and get your tofu brain."
Gu Qiao did not sit down, but followed the grandma into the kitchen.
The grandma bent down and took out an extra-large bowl from it, washed it, and then dug a full bowl of tofu brain.
"Grandma, I can't eat so much."
The grandma smiled and dug a few spoonfuls of candy into the bowl, then used a small bowl alone to hold some candy. "It's okay, these are all made by the grandma himself, so if you can't finish them, you can't finish them."
Immediately afterwards, the grandma took out a big bowl. Gu Qiao took the spoon. "Grandma, I'll do it..."
The grandma laughed and said yes. "I'll order you the bean flour cake. The beans were well harvested last year and the beans were fragrant."
"By the way, I also steamed some dumplings. Xiao Qiao, you can bring them out together."
The grandma was busy happily until she stuffed the small table full of it, and then she stopped.
"Xiao Qiao, hurry up and eat it. See if it is as delicious as before. See if the grandma's craftsmanship has declined."
Gu Qiao helped the grandma sit down in the seat. "Grandma, sit down and eat too."
Shang Lu stood up very smartly and stood in front of the counter.
The grandma did not refuse anymore, and pulled Gu Qiao to sit beside her and pushed the tofu brain in front of her.
"Have you lived well outside these years?"
Gu Qiao dug a bite of tofu and brain in his mouth. It was sweet and the beans were also very fragrant. It was delicious.
Gu Qiao nodded. "Okay. Are you in good health?"
The grandma smiled and pulled Gu Qiao to speak with joy than when she saw her granddaughter.
"Since I took the medicine you gave me, my body has become more and more prosperous. Now after dinner, I will go to the square dance with them."
"I went to climb a mountain some time ago."
"Don't worry, the grandma is in good health and will definitely live to ninety-nine."
"The grandma also wants to watch Xiao Qiao's child be born, and she can run and jump..."
I don’t know what I remembered, the grandma turned her face and wiped her tears. “Your grandma didn’t see anything, I have to watch it for her. When I get down there, I can still show off to your grandma.”
At that time, the aunt from the Gu family came back to do business, but the grandmother was not at home, but at her son's house in the city.
After she came back, she realized that the funeral of the Gu aunt had been completed.
I also heard that Gu Qiao was back. On the day of the funeral banquet, he removed himself from the Gu family's genealogy with his own hands and broke up all relationships with the Gu family.
After hearing these things, the grandma was still depressed for a long time. She only opened the store again recently.
She thought, maybe she was running a small shop, and one day she could see the little girl calling her grandmother.
Isn't this God still favoring her? Isn't this coming?
The grandma held Gu Qiao's hand tightly, her eyes full of care.
The grandma watched Gu Qiao's mother grow up since she was a child, and later she watched Gu Qiao grow up little by little to little by little.
When the aunt from the Gu family came to Chengtai County, she always brought her there; if she didn't come, both of them could talk about her for a day.
"Xiao Qiao, God will definitely favor you." Such a good girl will definitely be happy in the future.
Gu Qiao smiled slightly. "Grandma, I've found my family."
The grandma was stunned, looking a little confused.
Gu Qiao patiently explained: "It's my mother's family. My grandfather's family."
The grandma smiled with relief. "Are they good to you? Have you been wronged?"
Gu Qiao shook his head. "No, they are very nice to me. They are different from the Gu family."
"Next time, I'll take them to eat the grandma's tofu brain."
"Okay, okay!"
The grandma said a lot of things again. Seeing that the time was almost over, Gu Qiao proposed to leave.
Before leaving, the grandma specially used a packaging box, packed two portions of tofu brain, and then filled some soybean paste cakes and soy milk to hand them to Gu Qiao for her to eat on the way.
"Grandma, then you should pay more attention to your health. When the medicine is almost finished, please contact me."
"Okay, okay, don't worry."
After sending Gu Qiao away, the grandmother returned to the counter with a blushing face, preparing to clean up, and then closed the store.
At this time, the sun was already high; the vegetable sellers were all back, and the breakfast stall had already been closed.
When the grandma cleaned the counter, she saw a thick stack of cash in the cabinet and sighed heavily.
This girl said she would not charge her money, but she would...
Shang Lu looked at Gu Qiao quietly along the way.
Everyone says that the young lady is cold-blooded and ruthless, very indifferent to others, and doesn't care about anything.
Even if someone dies in front of her, she will not be able to lift her eyes.
But Shang Lu has been with the eldest lady for so long, and he knows that the eldest lady's heart is more kind than anyone else.
If anyone treats her a little bit good, she will return it twice as much.
