Zai Zai Grocery Store

Where did Zai Zai look so handsome.

Grandpa Wang went to the grocery store to buy washing powder twice before, and Lin Lihua brought it for him at the time. He didn't notice Lin Dong, but Lin Dong did notice and knew him, so he followed He Xiaochuan and shouted, "Grandpa Wang."

Grandpa Wang answered back, turned to He Xiaochuan, and asked, "Xiaochuan, who is this little boy?"

He Xiaochuan stepped into the courtyard and said, "It's my younger brother."

"Nonsense, where is your brother?"

"It's my younger brother, the younger brother of my fourth uncle's family."

That's what Lin Lihua told He Xiaochuan. He always said that he was a child of his fourth uncle's family. Grandpa Wang had met Lin Lihua's mother's family. The child is extremely kind, as if he has seen it somewhere.

However, he was sure that he had never seen it before, so this kind of "face kindness" might be a kind of "eye relationship" with Grandpa Wang. Grandpa Wang couldn't help but ask a few more questions: "Are you here to visit relatives?" ?”

He Xiaochuan replied: "No, he will live in my house from now on, he will be my younger brother."

Grandpa Wang asked suspiciously, "Why?"

"Because my mother said that the fourth uncle's family has too many children, so I don't want him anymore. He will be my younger brother in the future."

That's right, Grandpa Wang sighed softly, turned his eyes to Lin Dong with a very kind look, and asked warmly, "Little Cub, what's your name?"

Lin Dong's voice was gentle: "My name is Lin Dong."

"How old?"

"Five years old."

"It looks so good."

He was praised again, and Lin Dong had never been praised by anyone at his uncle and aunt’s house before, and no one was so gentle to him. He was very happy, and when he was happy, he suddenly thought of the purpose of coming here, and quickly said: "Grandpa Wang, Aunt asked me to bring you vinegar."

Grandpa Wang smiled kindly and said, "Oh, thank you, you're really capable, come in quickly, and I'll get you the money."

"Three dollars."

"Three yuan, okay, okay, I'll get you the money."

Grandpa Wang trotted to the living room to get money.

Lin Dong walked into Grandpa Wang's yard with two bottles of vinegar in his arms.

Grandpa Wang's yard is moderate in size. A straight path leading to the living room is paved with cobblestones. The flowers and plants planted beside it are quiet and elegant. There is also a large fish tank not far away. He Xiaochuan is watching the fish with great interest.

Lin Dong obediently stood in the middle of the courtyard waiting for Grandpa Wang with two bottles of vinegar in his arms. He was a child after all, and couldn’t keep his eyes fixed like an adult. He first looked at the fish, then at the flowers and plants, and finally his eyes fell on a person at the door of the main room. Granny.

The old grandma has gray hair and is holding an orange kitten. She is sitting in a wheelchair and looking at the photo in her hand intently. grab it.

The old grandma bent down to pick up the photo with difficulty, but she couldn't pick it up.

Lin Dong hurried forward, put two bottles of vinegar on the ground, picked up the photo, and handed it to the grandmother.

The old lady looked at Lin Dong along the photo.

Lin Dong said softly, "Grandma, here's a picture for you."

The old lady stared at Lin Dong without saying a word.

Lin Dong was embarrassed by being stared at, and didn't know what to say, so he said timidly, "I, I'm here to deliver vinegar."

The little girl looks soft and obedient.

The grandma laughed.

Grandpa Wang, who had just come out of the living room, was shocked when he saw this scene.His wife, Grandma Wang, has been sick for a long time, and the more sick she gets, the more confused she becomes. Recently, she often talks about her son and grandson, but her son and grandson go to work and school in the big city and have no time to come back. She is not used to living in a big city.

So I often look at the photos and fall into depression. I haven't smiled for a long time, but I smiled when I saw Lin Dong today.

Grandpa Wang walked over happily and said, "His name is Lin Dong."

Lin Dong nodded.

"Lin Dong." Grandma Wang called out.

"En." Lin Dong responded, handed the photo to Grandma Wang, and said, "Grandma, here is the photo."

Grandma Wang took it with a smile, her cloudy eyes were particularly clear at this moment, and she reached out to touch Lin Dong's little head.

Sensing Grandma Wang's kindness, Lin Dong didn't resist, and smiled at Grandma Wang, the small pear dimples on the corners of her mouth bloomed, looking extremely healed, Grandma Wang laughed out loud and said, "You're so cute."

Grandma Wang took the photo.

Lin Dong let out a sigh of relief as if he had completed his task. He thought of his own vinegar again, and quickly turned around to pick up the two bottles of vinegar and handed them to Grandpa Wang.

Grandpa Wang smiled and handed Lin Dong three dollars.

Lin Dong will leave after getting the money.

Grandpa Wang called to stop him: "Wait a minute."

Lin Dong looked back at Grandpa Wang with a raised face.

Grandpa Wang quickly entered the east wing, and when he came out again, he was holding a small dustpan made of bamboo in his hand. Inside the dustpan were bags of snacks such as milk candies, peanuts, biscuits, and milk. Grandpa Wang intended to give Lin Dong of.

Lin Dong directly refused: "I won't eat."

Grandpa Wang asked, "Why don't you eat?"

"My grandpa said, don't eat other people's food."

Grandpa Wang smiled kindly, and said, "Grandpa Wang is not someone else. Grandpa Wang is your Grandpa Wang. Grandpa Wang knows your aunt. Take it home and eat."

Lin Dong thought for a while and said, "Then I'll take three."

"Why take three?"

"One for my aunt, one for Xiao Chuan, and one for me."

Grandpa Wang laughed loudly and said, "Okay, you take three."

Lin Dong stepped forward with small steps, took only the biscuits with the smallest package, took three bags, and did not move the others, and then said: "Goodbye, Grandpa Wang and Grandma Wang."

Seeing Grandma Wang's reluctance, Grandpa Wang hurriedly said, "Dongdong, you should come to Grandpa Wang's place to play often."

Lin Dong said very honestly: "I can't come to play often."

"why?"

"I have to help my aunt look after the store and sell things. If you buy things every day, I can come every day."

Grandpa Wang laughed loudly when he heard the words, and Grandma Wang rarely said, "Then let's buy a lot of things every day, okay?"

Lin Dong said seriously: "You have to buy from my aunt's." You can't buy from other grocery stores.

Grandpa Wang answered, "Okay, I'll only buy from your aunt's."

Lin Dong nodded, then turned around and called He Xiaochuan who was still watching the fish: "Xiaochuan, you're home."

He Xiaochuan was so focused on watching the fish that he didn't hear it.

Lin Dong stepped forward and pulled He Xiaochuan's clothes: "Xiaochuan, let's go home."

He Xiaochuan said without turning his head: "I'll take a look for a while, come on, you have a look too, this fish is red and gold, it looks good."

He Xiaochuan pulled Lin Dong to the front of the fish tank and pointed it out to Lin Dong.

Lin Dong is also playful, watching the red koi swimming around, he is very happy, but he always remembers Lin Lihua's words, that is, don't be playful, and go back to the grocery store, but He Xiaochuan doesn't want to go back, He coaxed He Xiaochuan out of Grandpa Wang's house with biscuits.

He Xiaochuan ate the milk-flavored biscuit and asked, "Where did you get the biscuit?"

Lin Dong replied: "Grandpa Wang gave it."

"Why didn't Grandpa Wang give it to me?"

"I don't know. Grandpa Wang said I look good."

"Nonsense! I look better than you."

"..."

Lin Dong didn't argue with He Xiaochuan.

He Xiaochuan finished eating a bag of biscuits and asked Lin Dong for them.

Lin Dong turned his small body aside and said, "I can't give it to you."

He Xiaochuan asked: "Why?"

Lin Dong protected the biscuit and said, "Because my aunt hasn't eaten it yet."

"Don't you have two bags? I'll eat another bag!"

Lin Dong hesitated for a while, and finally handed one of the bags to He Xiaochuan, saying, "You can only eat this one, and you can't eat any more. My aunt didn't even eat it."

"understood."

He Xiaochuan took the biscuit and tore off the packaging bag.

Lin Dong stared straight at He Xiaochuan with his dark eyes, watching He Xiaochuan eat biscuits, he pouted his mouth, swallowed, then looked down at the bag of biscuits in his hand, and put the biscuits into his pocket after a while In the middle of the day, he patted his pocket with his small hand to make sure it wouldn't fall out, and then followed He Xiaochuan towards the grocery store.

Lin Dong handed three yuan to Lin Lihua as soon as he entered the grocery store.

Lin Lihua smiled and said, "Our Lin Dong is awesome."

Lin Dong pursed his mouth, but the corners of his mouth were raised.

Lin Lihua patted his little head and said, "Okay, let's go play."

Lin Dong didn't move.

Lin Lihua asked in surprise: "What's wrong? Don't want to play?"

Lin Dong took out the biscuit from his pocket and handed it to Lin Lihua, saying, "Give this to you, Auntie."

"Where did it come from?"

"Grandpa Wang gave it."

"Did you bring it back for your aunt to eat?"

"En." Lin Dong nodded.

Lin Lihua reached out to take it, and when she was about to return it to Lin Dong, the driver of the pickup truck called Lin Lihua to pay the bill. Lin Lihua responded quickly, put the biscuits on the counter, and then started to get busy.

After finishing the purchase, she was busy cooking. It was not until the afternoon that Lin Lihua had time to sit in front of the counter and rest for a while. At this time, Grandpa Wang came over.

"Uncle Wang." Lin Lihua stood up and said hello.

Grandpa Wang glanced at the biscuits on the counter and said with a smile, "Did Lin Dong really bring this back for you to eat?"

"Yeah, I was so busy in the morning that I forgot, thank you, Uncle Wang."

"You're welcome." Grandpa Wang said with a smile, "Your Lin Dong, it's really different. I gave him a dustpan and he didn't want snacks, but he chose the smallest biscuit to take. He took three bags and said one bag was for Xiaochuan. One bag is for my aunt, and the other is for him to eat."

Lin Lihua was happy to hear Lin Dong being praised, and then laughed too, just as she heard He Xiaochuan say, "The biscuits are delicious."

"Have you eaten?" Lin Lihua turned her head and asked.

"Well, I ate two bags."

"You eat two bags?" Lin Lihua asked.

"Well, I'll eat two bags of biscuits." He Xiaochuan picked up the cup on the counter, drank two sips of water, and ran out to play again.

Lin Lihua glanced at a bag of biscuits on the counter, then turned to look at Grandpa Wang, who also looked at Lin Lihua.

Lin Lihua pondered for a moment, then turned her head to look at Lin Dong. Lin Dong was sitting on a stone by the side of the road, sitting obediently, watching a group of children playing with eagles and catching chickens in the afterglow of the setting sun, with longing and timidity in their eyes Lin Lihua's eyes were sore because he wanted to blend in, but was afraid that he would not blend in. After talking to Grandpa Wang for a while, he walked out of the counter and shouted, "Lin Dong."

Lin Dong looked over immediately, and ran over with short legs: "Auntie."

"What are you doing?" Lin Lihua asked.

"Watch Xiaochuan play." Lin Dong said weakly.

"Why don't you go play?"

"I do not know."

"Why not? Didn't you play when you lived with grandpa?"

"No, brother and sister don't take me to play."

"Let Xiao Chuan take you to play for a while, okay?"

With anticipation in Lin Dong's clear eyes, he nodded emphatically.

Lin Lihua smiled, tore open the biscuit package in her hand, took out a biscuit, and said, "Open your mouth, I'll give you a biscuit."

"My aunt eats too."

"Okay, we're half of us, okay?"

"it is good."

Lin Lihua stuffed half of the biscuit into Lin Dong's mouth, Lin Dong chewed it with his small mouth, his eyebrows and eyes were curved, and the small pear dimples at the corners of his mouth also bloomed, Lin Lihua gave the remaining half to Lin Dong to eat, hugged Lin Dong and said: "Lin Dong Dong, you are amazing!"

Lin Dong looked at Lin Lihua.

Lin Lihua said: "You don't know how much Grandpa Wang likes you."

"why do you like me?"

"Tell me you look good."

"I'm not as good-looking as Xiao Chuan."

"Who said that?"

"Xiao Chuan."

"...he farts!" After saying this, Lin Lihua felt that her words and deeds were too rude, and then changed her words: "He is talking nonsense, you are much prettier than him, did you make Grandma Wang laugh today?"

Lin Dong nodded.

"Well, that's right, Grandpa Wang said, Grandma Wang also likes you very much, in the future, they will buy everything from us, and just bought a few hundred dollars, why are you so good. "

Lin Dong didn't quite understand what a few hundred yuan meant, but he knew that his aunt was happy, and he was happy when his aunt was happy, and the dimples at the corners of his mouth bloomed again.

Lin Lihua touched Lin Dong's little head, called He Xiaochuan, and asked He Xiaochuan to take Lin Dong to play.

He Xiaochuan frowned and said, "He doesn't know how to play."

Lin Lihua raised her voice: "He doesn't know how to play, don't you know how to teach him? You ate up all of Lin Dong's biscuits today."

He Xiaochuan looked at Lin Dong and said, "Let's go, let's play with you."

Lin Dong smiled.

He Xiaochuan took Lin Dong's little hand and walked towards the road.

Lin Lihua smiled and turned around to see He Qingzhang coming back.

"What are you doing?" He Qingzhang asked.

"I let Xiao Chuan take Lin Dong to play."

"Is Xiaochuan willing?"

"Yes." Lin Lihua told He Qingzhang what happened today.

He Qingzhang was slightly surprised.

Lin Lihua said: "That's not all. Lin Dong went to Uncle Wang's house, and Uncle Wang came over to buy things worth 500 yuan from our store."

"Buy so much?"

"Well, because I like Lin Dong."

"Like Lin Dong? Just because of this?"

"Because what's the matter? You have to know that half of the people in our small town are retired old people, and they are rich."

Just as she was talking, the phone at the counter rang, Lin Lihua turned around and went to answer the phone. As soon as she said a few words, her face showed shock.
