best lover

The weather was getting colder these days, and the New Year's Eve was also spent in a light snowfall. Li Yan didn't go to school to get his report card, not because he was hiding from Han Lun, but because he was too lazy to run.

The end of the new year is approaching, and every family seems to have endless things to do. Since then, Li Boshan has not come to see Jiang Yun for some reason, and Jiang Yun has never mentioned this matter. Jiang Yide also looks calm on the surface, but Li Boshan Once, Yan overheard him talking to Jiang Jun. What Jiang Yide meant was that he had thought about passing the reunion year first, and then he would settle the debt with Li Boshan.

In the early morning of this day, Li Blade almost exhausted all his perseverance to get up from the warm bed. It was not yet bright outside, and the lights in the kitchen and living room were already bright.

Li Blade opened the door and went out of the room, and saw the old man and the old lady were busy packing soaked soybeans.

This bean was soaked the day before yesterday. The soy bean grains that were originally as hard as pebbles have swelled a lot after being soaked in water. When pinched in the hand, they are not as hard as before, and they are sandwiched between the fingers. A pinch, and it's rotten.

Li Blade sucked his nose, and called out: "Grandpa, grandma."

Seeing her grandson, the old lady hurriedly said: "When you get up, there are tea eggs in the pot. Eat two to fill your stomach. After a while, there are tofu eggs."

Fang, there will be so many people and I don’t know how long it will take, and it’s so cold, why don’t you go, I’ll go with your grandfather.

"

Li Bian rubbed his eyes and said with a cute smile: "No need, grandma, I have agreed that I will go with grandpa. Besides, if there are many people in line at that time, and it is not our turn until noon, you still have to help me." I'm delivering a meal with grandpa."

When the old lady heard this, her heart softened, and she said again and again: "Okay, I will go to the vegetable market in a while and buy some more food. Do you like ribs? Do you like sweet and sour or braised?"

“I love ribs no matter how they are cooked”

Jiang Yide heard this, and murmured: "Your child loves to eat, you should buy more later, don't be reluctant to give up the money, buy two of them and come back, who will eat enough?"

The old lady glared at him, "I am willing to eat as much as my grandson eats, but I don't like to give it to you."

Jiang Yide replied: "Who cares."

"My grandson is rare, isn't it?"

Listening to the two of them bickering, Li Blade smiled like a cat, bent over and rolled up his sleeves to help pack soybeans together.

After the beans were loaded, Li Ren and Jiang Yide worked together to carry it onto the tricycle that Jiang Jun used to buy vegetables at home, and when it was done, Jiang Yide said to Li Ren: "Sit behind me for a while, it will be cool in the morning. "

In the days of March and September, where is the wind cool? It's almost bone-piercing. Li Ren knew that Jiang Yide loved him, but he also loved Jiang Yide. I'm good at driving."

"Okay, a tricycle is no better than a bicycle, let you ride it, turn around and ride into the ditch, don't sell all my soybeans, go back and sit down."

As Jiang Yide said, he pulled Li Ren away and drove him to the back seat. Li Ren knew Jiang Yide's temper. Although he felt distressed, he had no choice but to give in. He got into the car and asked the old man to drive him and Huang Dou to the tofu. square.

The cold wind was blowing, Jiang Yide stood in front of Li Ren, and walked forward with his back on his shoulders, reminding Li Ren from time to time to hide behind him

Li Yan pressed against Jiang Yide's back, and for a moment he only felt that the old man's curved back was like a high mountain at the moment, which was enough for him.

Shield from all storms.

The tofu workshop is not too far from the street market. It is located in an old factory with several old tile-roofed buildings. The factory used to be a small cotton ginning factory. The name of the factory made of iron sheets is still standing on the gate, which has been eroded by wind and rain. rusty,

There was already a line of people standing in the open space of the factory, and there were quite a few people, all of whom were older people, and some young people were mixed in the middle.

In the two tile-roofed houses at the front of the line, there was a rumbling sound of machinery in one, white smoke was billowing from the chimney of the other, and the windows were covered with water droplets, and hot air was coming out from the cracks in the windows. .

Jiang Yide put the cardboard he brought at the end of the team, carried his own soybeans and put them on the cardboard, muttering: "If I knew there were so many people, I should have come earlier."

Li Blade didn't know how to do it, so he asked, "Grandpa, do we have to wait for a long time?"

Jiang Yide looked up, "I guess I have to wait, you wait here, I'll get the receipt."

i,,

Li Blade nodded, Jiang Yide followed the team and entered a tile-roofed house. When he came out, he had a red note in his hand. Jiang Yide came back and said: "There are dozens of people ahead, let's not hurry up." , the machine broke down yesterday afternoon, many people failed to make it, and today it was moved to the morning, Xiao Ren, how about it, you go back first, I don’t see it’s not our turn at noon, you go home and finish your lunch It’s not too late to come back.”

Li Blade looked at the sky, it was just dawn, he was gone now, only Jiang Yide was left waiting here.

Li Blade shook his head towards Jiang Yide, "No, Grandpa, I'll wait with you. Anyway, I have nothing to do when I go back. Why don't you take a look here, I haven't seen it yet."

Jiang Yide didn't know what he was thinking, the crow's feet in the corners of his eyes deepened a lot, and he nodded towards Li Yan.

"Okay then, are you hungry for the tea eggs cooked by your grandma? I brought some. If you are hungry, eat two."

"Okay, but I'm not hungry yet, I'll eat when I'm hungry."

The grandfather and grandson put the soybeans there without worrying that someone would take them, so they found a place where they could see them and sat down and waited.

Li Yan took the opportunity to chat with Jiang Yide.

"Grandpa, there are still so many people who make tofu by themselves and go to the street to buy it, isn't it very convenient?"

"It's very convenient, but in the past, the conditions of every family were not good. There was no income for a large family by farming. At that time, the Chinese New Year was not as big as it is now. They ate tofu if they didn't have to eat, but it cost money to go. I’m sure you’d be reluctant to buy it, but if you’re a farmer, who’s short of soybeans, save some soybeans when harvesting them, and come to the tofu mill to grind them by yourself at the end of the year, and you won’t need a few dollars.”

Jiang Yide said, looking at the crowd, "So at our age, we still like to make homemade tofu during the Chinese New Year. The ones we buy are not as safe and delicious as those made at home. In previous years, it was me and your grandmother who came here. Mo, your uncle and the others are busy 360 days a year without a day off, and your grandma and I are free at home, so we just find something to do and pass the time.” “Uncle and aunt are busy, you follow

My mother-in-law is not idle either. The sanitation at home, the work of buying vegetables and cooking on weekdays are all done by you and grandma. These things seem to be nothing, but it is not easy to do them. You and grandma have also been working together for ten years. Like a day, I have never seen disgust. "

Jiang Yide listened to Li Yan's words, smiled, sighed and said: "So I and your mother are blessed, your little aunt knows the situation of your eldest aunt's family, when the two children of Shuiyue Shuiming were born, your mother went to help After taking care of her for a year, your little aunt asked your mother to come back the next year, saying that I can't be too busy on my own."

"Yes, little aunt is really nice, and treats me well."

Li Blade lowered his head and murmured in a low voice. At this moment, he was suddenly so thankful that he was luckier than others and was able to live a new life. Otherwise, he would never have tasted what it was like to be a family member.

Jiang Yide is really old and spicy. Jiang Yide said that he will wait until noon at least, which is true. When it was almost eleven o'clock, Jiang Yun called and asked them about their situation. Immediately said to make lunch for them and send it over.

Li Yan ate two tea eggs for breakfast, and he ate it early, and now he was hungry, so he went to the tricycle to get the tea eggs and boiled water.

"Grandpa, Mom said to bring us lunch later, let's eat some eggs to fill our stomachs first."

Jiang Yide responded, took a bite of the tea egg that Li Ren had peeled, looked up and said to Li Ren: "The egg is cold, don't eat it, I'll ask them to help warm it up."

"No need, Grandpa," Li Blade took a bite of the cool tea egg with a smile, "It's okay if it's cold, and you can eat it when it's cold." Jiang Yide looked at him with kind eyes, and picked up the large plastic kettle. Wrap it in a towel, but it's not hot now, and thermos cups were not popular at that time, Jiang Yide got up and said: "It's okay to eat it cold, but in such a cold day, it's okay to eat it."

Going to the stomach doesn't work, wait a minute, I'll ask them to change the pot of hot water, you go back and put the eggs in the lid of the kettle, scald them with hot water before eating.

"

After Jiang Yide finished speaking, he took the big kettle and hurried to the tile house where the soy milk was cooked.

Not long after, Jiang Yide came back, and the kettle in his hand was replaced with hot water. Jiang Yide asked Li Ren to put the peeled tea eggs in the lid of the big kettle, poured hot water into it and scalded it, and then said to Li Ren: : "Eat."

Li Blade ate eggs that had been scalded with hot water, but what Jiang Yide ate was still cold eggs. Li Blade saw it, but couldn't say anything, because he knew that Jiang Yide wanted to save the hot water for him. In fact, it's not a big deal. From Li Yan's point of view, it's just a matter of refilling the hot water when it's gone, but Jiang Yide is reluctant, not because of the water, but because of him.

After more than half an hour, the lunch was delivered, but the person who brought the food surprised Li Ren. With the lunch box in his hand, Bai Qianyi followed Jiang Yun into the factory, talking and laughing. the door and walked towards them.

In an instant, Li Ren only felt that the originally dilapidated factory building suddenly had a feeling of splendor.

Until everyone was standing in front of him, Li Blade couldn't realize what was going on.

Bai Qianyi looked at him indifferently, and he just stood there like an ink painting, light and elegant.The uproar around him had nothing to do with Li Yan, he opened his mouth and only asked, "Why are you here?"

Bai Qianyi said: "Come to see you, I'm going back to France tomorrow, don't worry, come and see."

I don't know why when I returned to France, this time when I heard Bai Qianyi said that he wanted to leave, Li Yan suddenly felt a little bit reluctant.
