Beloved Concubine

Chapter 104

The independent small courtyard returned to calm.There was a special person guarding Taisun's bedside, De Wang went back to his room to rest, Su Xiaowan prepared dinner, Fang Yu and Dr. Liang went to the pharmacy to dispense medicine.

Everyone has something to do, Chen Xiao was bored alone in the room, staring at the photos and drawing paper in a daze.

When I bought a charcoal pencil, it was just black charcoal.Chen Xiao didn't care about painting, she would be dazed after looking at the photos, and felt a little sleepy, so she climbed into bed and slept for a while.

They rushed to Nanzhong from the lakeside last night. Except for Chen Xiao who slept in the space for two hours, the others didn't sleep, including Fang Yu.

Chen Xiao fell asleep not long after going to bed, and drifted into dreamland.I dreamed of my grandmother's house when I was a child.

My grandmother, Chen Lan, was 35 years old at the time. Her family was on the edge of the county seat and her registered permanent residence was in a rural area. Their family had a small three-story building on the side of the road outside the county seat.

Chen Lan's husband drives a large truck for transportation. Over the years, he has earned some money and built this small building on the homestead.

Her husband has been away for transportation for a long time. Chen Lan uses her own house to run a small restaurant on the first floor, rents out the second floor to others, and lives on the third floor.Chen Xiao's parents came to this restaurant to eat, and then rented a house on the second floor, so they knew Chen Lan.

Every family has scriptures that are difficult to recite. Chen Lan's husband raised a mistress in another county, and it is said that he even paid for the mistress to open a karaoke hall. what result.The family sings and dances as usual, and the mistress continues to raise her.

Chen Lan asked for a divorce, but her husband said yes, if she wanted a son, she would not receive a penny; if she gave up her son, she would give her 4 yuan. ——1992 yuan in 4 was a lot of money. At that time, the salary level was about 150 yuan per month, and the per capita annual income was 2026 yuan.

As for dividing the house, that is impossible.In fairness, the money to build the house was all earned by the husband.Before there was a three-story house, Chen Lan worked as a farmer at home. She had almost no extra income and was supported by her husband.After owning the small building, Chen Lan opened a restaurant and rented a house, and only then did she have surplus income.

For the sake of her son, Chen Lan endured it.Until the mistress over there became pregnant, until the illegitimate child was born.

Chen Lan is a hardworking and kind-hearted woman. When she saw that Chen Xiao's parents had children at a young age (not yet married from the appearance), she persuaded her well: go home, you are still young, don't do this Drifting outside is not good for you or your children.

Chen Xiao's mother recognized her as a godmother at this time.

Let me introduce here, Chen Xiao's "father" is named Chen Changxing, and his "mother" is named Chen Liuping. They both look less than 20 years old in appearance.Afterwards, Chen Lan felt that their names might be fake.When she was renting a house, the two of them couldn't show their ID cards, because private renting was not so strictly controlled. Chen Lan saw that they were pitiful, so she didn't bother with ID cards.

However, it was Chen Lan who was "poor" in the end.

At that time, Chen Lan's husband hardly ever went home, and came back every 20 days or so.Finally, he came back once and offered to divorce.

The divorce agreement is still the same as before: I want a son, but no money; I want money, but no son.

Chen Lan didn't want to give up on her son, and the son didn't want to follow his father either.But in this way, the two of them would just leave the house without having anything.

At this time, Chen Liuping stood up and said that after buying this house, Chen Lan's husband would be happy and where would he stay.

After some disputes, Chen Lan's husband agreed to sell the house for 20 yuan.Chen Liuping took out 20 cash and counted it on the spot.

Chen Lan and her husband divorced, and the son and the house belonged to her, but in fact Chen Liuping paid for the house.

Chen Lan was very puzzled, where did she get so much money?Chen Liuping said, in fact, their family is very rich, 20 yuan is nothing.

This is strange, since they have money, why should this "little couple" be so wandering?

There is no answer to this question, and one day later, the "little lover" suddenly disappeared, and there has been no news since then.

Chen Lan raised Xiaoxiao until she was six years old and was about to go to elementary school.In order to go to school, Chen Lan tried to register Xiaoxiao in her household registration booklet, named Chen Xiao, and wrote "adopted daughter" in the column of relationship, but Chen Xiao kept calling her "grandmother".

in a dream.Chen Xiao dreamed that when he was four or five years old, there were two tables of guests in the restaurant, and his grandmother was cooking in the kitchen.She ran into the kitchen and said to her grandma, "Grandma, I'm hungry."

Grandma is wearing an apron, turning the spatula, and the green pepper and meat are being fried in the pot.

Grandma said: "Wait a minute, I'll make it for you when the guests' dishes are fried."

There is only a small high stove, looking at the fried pork with green peppers in the pot, salivating.

"Grandma, I want to eat fried pork with green peppers."

"Green peppers are too spicy, you are too young to eat spicy food."

"I can eat spicy food, I can eat it!"

Grandma bent down, lowered her head and smiled, "Then go and make a bowl of rice yourself, and I'll shovel some for you." Grandma meant to shovel out a spoonful from the guest's dish and give it to her.

This kind of thing really happened. Before, Chen Xiao didn't go to kindergarten, but stayed at home all day, with her grandmother.Every time at noon and dinner, the restaurant is also the busiest time, and Chen Xiaoxiao also happens to be hungry at this time.When grandma cooks for guests, she will deliberately cook more, and some of them will be given to Xiao Xiao.

A bowl of rice, topped with scrambled eggs with tomatoes, or fried pork with chives, moved a small stool, used the high stool as a table, and sat alone in the backyard to eat.

In the dream, Chen Xiao went to scoop rice.In the large wooden steamer about her height, there was only a little leftover rice on the bottom, probably not enough for a bowl after scratching.

She took the spoon and scraped and scraped and scraped... Then she heard a voice next to her ear say:
"Xiao Xiao, it's time to eat."

The scene in the dream disappeared instantly, and Chen Xiao woke up in a daze.

"Xiao Xiao, it's time to eat."

Fang Yu put his hands on the side of the bed, lowered his head and whispered in her ear.

Chen Xiao opened his eyes, the light in the room was dim, the sun had already set, and it was about to get dark.

"I want to eat fried pork with green peppers." Chen Xiao couldn't forget the fried pork with green peppers that he didn't eat in his dream.

"Hehe." Fang Yu smiled, and sat her up: "There are no green peppers here. Did you dream about fried pork with green peppers?"

"Yeah. I still dreamed about grandma." After saying this, for some reason, she suddenly felt sad, her nose was sore, and tears welled up.

"Why are you crying?" Fang Yu hurriedly wiped her tears.

Chen Xiao may never see grandma again in this life.I remembered that when I was a child, she followed behind my grandma, she washed the vegetables when my grandma washed them, and she served the dishes when my grandma cooked them.

In other people's childhood, parents took her to play here and there. Her childhood was almost all in the restaurant in her own yard. Only during the summer vacation, the little uncle would take her out to play.But it is also near the county seat, fishing in the river and picking up fungi in the mountains.Until the sixth grade of elementary school, my grandmother went to the provincial capital to open a restaurant, and they moved to the city.

"What did you dream about?" Chen Xiao burst into tears, and Fang Yu couldn't finish wiping them off.

"It's nothing, I just dreamed that I was with my grandma when I was a child." Chen Xiao tried his best to restrain tears.In fact, there is nothing to cry about, grandma is fine now.

Fang Yu went to the washbasin, fetched some water from the bucket, put on a wet towel, and brought it to Chen Xiao to wipe his face.

"Don't be sad, maybe we can go back and have a look sometime. You and your grandma are not separated forever." Fang Yu comforted.

Chen Xiaochang sighed: "How can I go back!"

Black Stone can travel through realms, and since it can pass through, it can naturally travel back.However, they seem to come through randomly, and the white boa can't locate them.

Bai Bo said that Chen Xiao, as the owner of the Black Stone, should be able to locate it.But how to locate it?The boa doesn't know.When Jin Yu owned this black stone, they did not travel through the boundary.Jin Yu held the Black Stone for about a few months, and then they were "annihilated".

About how to shuttle and locate, Fang Yu knows.But he can't tell.As soon as he said it, he was exposed.

Fang Yu wants Chen Xiao to learn to "draw", which is actually preparing for positioning.This matter can only be done by herself, and no one else can replace it.So she has to learn it by herself and master it to a certain level.
