Chapter 97 (1/2)
For wax gourd, this piece is ripe.
It's very familiar. Before Xu Qing picked it up, the big garbage cans in the corner of the wall were its canteen
”Does he think we're going to throw it back?” Xu Qing saw that the wax gourd was hidden behind Jiang He's legs, and he thought deeply about it.
”Where are you going?”
”Over there, I picked it up from there.”
Jiang he followed his eyes to see in the past, and then went in the opposite direction: ”that will not pass.”
The winter sun does not have much temperature, shining on the body warm, two people are full, wax gourd is also just fed, two people holding hands, one step three shakes, looks not idle.
After a while, she couldn't help asking, ”do you just like to pick things up?”
”No, I just pick up what I like.”
Xu Qing replied, looking up at the small colored flags flying everywhere in the community, and said, ”it's going to be new year's day. It seems that there's something like New Year's day over there, right?”
Without waiting for Jiang He to answer, he asked himself: ”anyway, this kind of new year is certainly not available. You can eat and drink freely... In the early years, fireworks and firecrackers were set off, but now they are not allowed to be set off. You can only set them off secretly.”
”Chinese new year?”
”On the day of family reunion, generally speaking, no matter how far away they are from home, they have to go home to have the Spring Festival transportation. As I have shown you before, so many people are crowded together on the train.”
Jiang He didn't speak. He looked at the sky and sighed through the big tree that had withered and had only branches in the community.
”My home is your home. I'll take you to paste Spring Festival couplets another day... We'll also paste them here.”
”Well.”
”The first year... It's worth remembering. Tomorrow I'll take you to buy new clothes for the first time.”
Bang!
As they spoke, a gun rang out in the distance. Xu Qing looked at the children over there and said with a smile, ”that's the firecracker. If you use a little fire, it will ring.”
”Is it fun?”
”It should be fun... Wax gourd will be afraid of that. I'll buy you fireworks next time.”
After the winter vacation, the community is much busier than before.
Not only the children who originally lived here have liberated their studies, but also the young people who have already married and gone out will bring their children to live for some time, or leave their children to their grandparents and run to have fun by themselves.
Jiang He watched a group of children playing in the open space, occasionally producing an unreal sense of trance.
Everything was so peaceful and comfortable.
”Xiaoyan!”
Xu Qing saw Xiaoyan Chuai standing not far away watching the boy set off firecrackers and raised her hand to greet her.
”Brother Xu!”
Xiao Yan is waiting to cover her ears. She is attracted by Xu Qing's shouts. Her hands slow down, and then a bang of firecrackers makes her shoulder shrink. She looks at the boys and runs towards Xu Qing with one hand covering her ears.
”Are you afraid of firecrackers when you are so big?” Xu Qing looks at her funny action.
”Not afraid!” Xiaoyan shook his head hard. ”It's just very noisy!”
”Look... This is sister Jiang He.”
”Good sister!”
”Hello.”
Jiang he squeezed Xu Qing's hand tightly and blinked at the little girl who only reached her waist.
Double ponytails a swing, looks very lively appearance.
”Aunt Cheng's granddaughter is aunt Cheng who often carries a basket.”
Xu Qing explained that Jiang Hewei nodded irretrievably. As long as Xu Qing took the initiative to take the people she knew, most of them had some purpose.
In the past six months, she has found that Xu Qing's purpose has always been very strong. Unless it is very interesting, she seldom does something useless for no reason.
”Is this wax gourd?”
