keep you worry-free

The first time we met was in the summer when she was nine years old.

The latitude of Dongcheng is southerly, and the summer sun is scorching hot, and people's skin hurts when exposed to the sun.A small town that has not been developed much, seems to be separated from the times. Looking around, it is full of green rice fields and fruit and vegetable gardens; most of the scattered houses are traditional courtyard houses with red bricks and Protecting the dragon and the middle cheng, bright red Spring Festival couplets are pasted on the main entrance, and the frayed corners can't hide the vigorous black characters of flying dragons and phoenixes.The children ran through the fibrous roots of the old banyan tree with the wind, and the white-haired old man sat in the shadows, smoking, making tea, and playing a game of military chess.

Grandma An's house is in the alley behind the Mazu Temple.Xiaoyun carried a can of imported formula milk in her hand, and slowly followed behind her parents; passing by the gate of the temple, her parents paused for a moment, put down the heavy objects and clasped their hands together, and worshiped the god statue inside reverently three times, Xiaoyun Seeing this, he drew a gourd in the same way.

Zhao Dun turned around, looked at the little girl's childish movements, and smiled honestly. "Yunyun, grandma's house is nearby, wait a minute, I'll show you your little sister." While speaking, she picked up the formula milk jug at Xiaoyun's feet.

"Very cute, she looks fresh and beautiful, she is a pretty girl." An Huiting also raised the corners of her mouth slightly, and the three of them turned along the alley, beside a garden full of miscellaneous things, the old Sanheyuan.

"Over there," An Huiting patted Xiao Yun's shoulder, and pointed her fat, short long fingers to the east wing. "Go and say hello to your uncle."

Mom and Dad have to go to greet Grandma An first, Xiaoyun is not afraid of new environment, stepping on one threshold after another with difficulty, she pushes open a small wooden door, a deep and gentle singing voice comes, Xiaoyun walks lightly When I entered, I saw a middle-aged man holding a child and slowly shaking it.

Because of her small movements, the man didn't notice her appearance, or maybe the man's full attention was only on the baby in his hand.Xiao Yun's mind has always been delicate, so she didn't bother her, and began to observe her uncle.Both uncle and mother inherited grandma's almond eyes, which are round and look very gentle, and their temperament is honest at first glance, and they have not acquired the atmosphere of the city because of working outside for several years.The big callused palms patted the child, and the lullaby in his mouth didn't stop for a moment. The so-called loving father is probably like this.

The child fell into a deep sleep and snored. The man kept his hands and stopped singing, staring at the child as if in a daze.Xiao Yun frowned lightly, she saw two parts of nostalgia and one part of vicissitudes in it.

"……uncle."

Awakened by the clear and crisp child's voice striking like jade, An Da raised his head vigorously, and then showed a big smile to Xiao Yun. "It's Yunyun! It's been a while since I saw her, and she looks so pretty..."

"I'm sorry, I've been coaxing your cousin just now, and it's hard to make her fall asleep... Come, come, let me show you."

Xiao Yun stepped forward, with rare curiosity in her eyes.She is inexplicably precocious, and has some personality differences from her peers. Curiosity is not easy to appear, but she has never seen such a young child, and she actually has some expectations in her heart.

The milk baby slept soundly in her father's arms, with her mouth wide open, completely relaxed.Xiao Yun looked at her cousin carefully, she had slightly small eyes, one long and one round; her nose was high and her mouth was small, not ugly, she was probably like what her mother said, a very delicate girl.

"How old is my cousin?" Xiaoyun asked.

"Two years old."

"It looks a little small!" Xiao Yun was surprised.

An Dasheng smiled slightly. "Yunyun has good observation skills, Wuyou is a premature baby, and her bones are weaker than ordinary children."

"Really..." Xiaoyun nodded. "Worriless, is it my cousin's name?"

"Yes. An Wuyou, nicknamed Lele."

"An Wuyou... What a good name." Xiao Yun smiled.

"Where, it's so bad that you named Grandma An. After all, uncle is a worker, not as good as grandma and your mother." An Dasheng scratched his cheek.

Xiaoyun quietly stood aside and looked at her cousin. After a few minutes, An Dasheng took out a hundred-yuan bill from his pocket, "There is a sweet potato candy at the entrance of the temple. The sign says it's a 30-year-old stall. It's delicious. Don't worry. Stand here stupidly, go buy it and eat it. Remember, remind your mother-in-law to be darker, the kind that has been boiled for a long time will taste better."

Xiao Yun nodded and tiptoed out.Although the stall is small, the yellow signboard is conspicuous. Xiaoyun told her uncle's instructions and watched her mother-in-law put sweet potato candies into plastic boxes and tie them up with rubber bands. Double size eyes.

Xiao Yun went back with a plastic bag, and just about to step into the main hall, she heard her parents and grandmother deliberately lowering their voices, so she retracted her steps and quietly stuck to the door.

"...Brother, is he still unable to get out?" An Huiting asked in dialect.

Grandma An sighed, "How could it be so easy? After coming back for two years, apart from tidying up the field at home, I spent the rest of the time looking at Le Wazi. On the surface, she seemed to be fine, but in fact, she was completely out of her wits..."

Zhao Dun patted Grandma An's wrinkled hands, and comforted him in a warm voice: "The pain of losing a wife, it takes time to adjust. The elder brother is sincere and caring for the family, and the elder sister-in-law is so affectionate. I thought the birth of Lele would bring happiness, but I didn't know God’s will tricks people, but it’s hard to give birth, I don’t have that blessing... Fortunately, there is Lele, who can comfort my elder brother to some extent.”

"Speaking of my well-behaved daughter-in-law, I feel sad." Grandma An wiped the tears from her face. I was almost paralyzed on the ground and almost passed out. Le Wazi was also small and blue, and it was a miracle that I got my life back..."

Being reminded of sad memories, An Huiting couldn't help her eyes flushing. "I never want to hear my elder brother's miserable howls that day...Oh my god! I just like to tease people..."

It turns out that when uncle encounters such a thing, it's no wonder he always has a kind of gloom that can't go away, Xiao Yun thought.As Fang was meditating, she heard footsteps coming from the right, and she hurried into the main hall. "Grandma, Dad, Mom..."

"Xiao Ting, A Dunzai, you are back! Long time no see." An Dasheng said with a smile and walked into the main hall.The other three secretly breathed a sigh of relief. If Xiao Yun hadn't just intervened, Da Sheng might have hurt him again if he heard the original content.

"Brother, this can of milk powder, as well as Yunyun's old gadgets, clothes and socks, are all useless now, if you don't mind, give them all to Lele!" Zhao Dun pointed to the pile of bags on the chair beside him. .

"How can it be disgusting? It's too late to be grateful!" An Dasheng rubbed his hands and looked around. "I shouldn't, I didn't prepare anything at home, and I asked you to take so many things... Wait for me, a friend sent a good bag of tea a while ago, it's grown in the mountains, it's delicious, I'll go to the kitchen to make it ..."

The family is outside on the stone table and chairs under the tree, making tea and drinking tea.It was already dusk, the sun was gradually sinking to the west, and although the air was still sultry, it made people feel much better.An Dasheng has thick hands, but he is very meticulous in making tea. The hot pot and warm cup are high and low brewing.Xiao Yun refused the refreshments offered by her uncle—she doesn’t like sweets—he picked up the small teacup and sniffed it lightly, then took a sip. Multi-layer flavor, this tea ceremony is really good.

"Uncle is good at tea." Xiao Yun sincerely appreciated it.

"Haha," Zhao Dun tapped Xiao Yun's head, "Little girl has a lot of food. Your uncle is famous for making tea."

"Don't listen to your father's nonsense," An Dasheng put away the remaining tea leaves. "...Your aunt loves to drink, so I just learned a little bit."

The atmosphere was suddenly a little awkward.Zhao Dun winked at his wife, and An Huiting hurried out to smooth things over.

"Speaking of which, I haven't been back to Dongcheng for a while, and I noticed a lot of changes! After getting off the expressway, there are some chain stores next to it, and I heard that a big hotel is built in the next town, which will definitely bring tourists; Even Yuchang, with the current development, I don’t know if it’s good or bad.”

"The population of middle-aged people in the east city has migrated seriously. If you look at the market in the morning, there are either old people or children. There are no job opportunities, and young people have nothing to develop here... Like you and A Dun, who have been teaching in the city for so long, and still volunteer It's really rare to be transferred back to my hometown to serve!" An Dasheng put down the porcelain cup, and suddenly looked at Xiao Yun who had been listening silently, "Yun Yun, are you not used to it? If you transfer schools suddenly like this, some good friends in the class will definitely be upset. Shall I give up?"

"...Actually, it doesn't matter, I don't have many friends in class."

"Ha, is that so?" Zhao Dun raised his eyebrows and teased, "On the day of the farewell party, a group of people cried so loudly, and there was a little boy who grabbed your snot and tears from crying, what is that? What's going on?"

Xiao Yun is helpless. "Dad, I didn't cry. Besides, those people don't usually communicate with me, so I don't know how excited they are."

"Hahaha!" An Dasheng patted Xiaoyun on the shoulder. "Yunyun is so pretty, with good grades and a great personality. In fact, many people like you very much!"

"Isn't it?" Grandma An was sitting next to Xiaoyun, she hugged Xiaoyun and put her on her lap. "My family, Yunyun, will definitely be a 'lady and a gentleman' in the future!" Laughing and looking at her little granddaughter, the more she likes it the more she looks at it.

Peach blossom eyes, willow-leaf eyebrows, pretty nose, cherry mouth, deep facial features, black pupils with purple blue, deep and shining, like brilliant stars scattered in the Milky Way.Although she is young, she has the stability of being beyond her age, and she doesn't know how charming she will be when she grows up in the future.

However, Xiao Xiaoyun at this moment is actually a bit bored.Being touched, laughed and hugged by the elders in the family made her feel very naive, but she completely forgot that she was only a child in the third grade of elementary school.

"Okay, okay, don't tease her, didn't you see Yunyun, did your brows get knit together?" An Huiting smiled and pushed her husband, "It's too late, let's have dinner together, and we have to tidy up the new house! Tomorrow I have to take Yunyun to the new school to go through some formalities, don't delay it too late."

"Okay," Zhao Dun began to help An Dasheng tidy up the tea set, and when he was halfway through, he suddenly reminded Xiaoyun, "We're going back, go say hello to Cousin Lele; you will meet often in the future, as a sister, you should be careful Take care of her, you know?"

Xiao Yun stepped into the small room again.Lele was put into the small bed, covered tightly with the quilt, and still slept soundly, but there was no snoring.This is how children can sleep, Xiao Yun thought.Going to the side of the small bed, tiptoing slightly, stretched out his hand unconsciously to that cheek, and poked it secretly, the touch was unexpectedly soft.

Xiao Yun smiled, the tenderness was stained with her usual cold eyes.

"Lele, please give me more advice..."
