Grape
After school is the peak time for the Douhua shop, the smell of cooked beans hits your face when you enter the store. The interior decoration of the store is old-fashioned and surrounded by various small advertisements.
Fang Zhao was familiar with the proprietress of this restaurant and went there every two days. When the proprietress saw someone he knew coming, she quickly pushed away a table of customers with a rag to make room.
The landlady expressed her warm condolences: "Zhaozhao is out of school!"
Fang Zhao responded and took off her schoolbag: "Aunt Zhang is still the same." She felt something was wrong for a moment, so she tilted her head and looked at Yan Shu: "Do you like salty or sweet food?"
Yan Shu was stunned for a while: "It's salty."
She nodded slightly and immediately faced the landlady: "Aunt Zhang will bring you another bowl of salty food!"
The douhua shop was full and the two of them had to wait for nearly 20 minutes before they were served.
Fang Zhao was about to get hungry due to stomach acid. There were disposable chopsticks in the chopstick cage at the table. She took a pair and handed a pair to Yan Shu.
She broke her chopsticks violently and couldn't wait to get the tofu pudding in the bowl. She didn't eat it well because it was too hot and she choked once in the process.
Fang Zhao turned her head to one side and coughed twice: "I'm sorry I haven't eaten all day." There were tears in her eyes and her face was abnormally red.
"Yeah" Yan Shu lowered his head and picked a bean to eat.
"Don't you like sweets?" Fang Zhao asked casually while filling his mouth with tofu pudding.
"I haven't eaten it."
This answer surprised Fang Zhao. Usually, you can see stalls selling bean curd everywhere. There are not many children who have never eaten bean curd. He was stunned for a while and quickly realized that Yan Shu came from other places. He had never eaten it before.
Normal: "I heard they said you came from the capital."
Yan Shu looked at her for a few seconds and nodded sincerely.
Just when Fang Zhao was about to ask a question like "Is this my hometown?" Yan Shu spoke directly with a tacit understanding: "This is my grandma's house."
She still had many questions she wanted to ask, such as "when to leave", "why to come"... and the question that had been swirling in her mind was whether it was true that Liu Liu said that his family donated the library.
Out of politeness and respect, Fang Zhao didn't ask any questions until he left.
Fang Zhao usually teaches his younger brother at home on Saturdays and Sundays.
A small wooden table was placed in the yard. In front of the table were Fang Zhao and Fang Jie. The little boy was chewing a pen and calculating a question.
Fang Zhao turned sideways and marked important problem-solving ideas on the test paper: "This question finds the area of the shaded part..."
Jia Meifang was hanging clothes on the roof: "Fang Zhao, teach your brother well!" She said this sentence hundreds of times a day, Fang Zhao frowned impatiently and said habitually, "I know."
After she told Fang Jie this question, there was a knock on the iron door.
Fang Zhao pointed him to the question and rushed to the door to open the door.
The iron door slowly opened, and a pale old man came into view. The old man was a frequent visitor to the two families on the next street. Fang Zhao sweetly called out: "Grandma Xu."
The iron door was fully opened, and Fang Zhao quickly noticed the person behind Grandma Xu.
The person behind him was wearing an unruly black suit, and his face was tense with a bit of anger.
Yan Shu?
She was stunned for a moment before she realized what was happening and invited the people into the small courtyard. Then she shouted towards the top of the building: "Grandma Xu is here."
Hearing this, the people upstairs rushed down in a hurry. Jia Meifang wiped the water droplets left by drying clothes on her apron: "Aunt Xu, you are here!"
"I'm here to give you something." The old lady smiled and said, pushing the man in black behind her forward: "We have planted some grapes in our yard. I can't finish eating and I will give you some."
