Chapter 35 Countryside Experience
Leng Yu's grandma walked into the house and saw a girl besides Leng Yu. She looked at Leng Yu suspiciously and asked, "Xiaoyu, who is this?"
"Grandma, she is my classmate. Our school arranged a summer country experience activity, and she was arranged by the school to our house." Leng Yu explained in a panic.
"Grandma, hello, my name is Ye Tong. I was arranged here by the school to experience life. I will disturb you in the future." Ye Tong smiled and looked at grandma happily.
"Well, okay, Xiaoyu, you take her to the living room, and I'll cook for you." Grandma said, turned and walked out the door.
"Grandma, you can rest and leave the cooking to me." Leng Yu hurriedly stepped forward to stop his grandma.
"Yeah, grandma, you must be exhausted after a busy day. Leave the cooking to me and Leng Yu. You can go and rest." Ye Tong will also follow to cook.
"No, no, child, you are a guest, how can I let you cook? Just let Xiaoyu go. I'll take you to the living room to eat some fruit." Grandma looked at Ye Tong kindly.
"Grandma, I'm here to experience life, and helping the family with work is also part of the activity. If I come here and don't work, I'm not here to experience life, but to be a princess." Ye Tong always kept smiling.
"Okay, good boy, go with Xiaoyu, but don't do too tiring work, just leave it to Xiaoyu, you can do something easy." Grandma still looked at Ye Tong kindly.
"Okay, grandma." Ye Tong felt a little sad, Leng Yu's grandma and her grandma were simply worlds apart.
"Xiaoyu, take Xiaotong to cook, don't let her do too tiring work, or I won't be able to spare you." Grandma looked at Leng Yu seriously.
"Grandma, I see. I'm tired after a busy day today. Go and rest." After Leng Yu finished speaking, he led Ye Tong towards the kitchen in the bungalow.
After a simple observation, Ye Tong found that every house in Leng Yu's house was cleaned very well, and even the items were neatly arranged and looked very comfortable.
"Let's just fry a few dishes today, and then go to the market to buy vegetables tomorrow, don't mind." Leng Yu was already in the kitchen when he was talking to Ye Tong.
"It doesn't matter, is it you or I?" Ye Tong felt that his cooking skills were not bad.
"I'll do it, you can just find a place to sit." Leng Yu didn't want Ye Tong to start working on the first day he came here.
"No, I'm going to help."
"Okay, then you wash the vegetables and leave the cooking to me." Leng Yu had no choice but to promise Ye Tong.
"Okay, I can just taste your cooking skills." Ye Tong was already looking forward to it.
Two hours later, the meal was ready, and it was very rich. There were all kinds of home-cooked dishes such as fried bacon with green peppers, spicy potato chips, Sanxian soup, and scrambled eggs with tomatoes.
The weather was hot, Leng Yu moved the table to the center of the courtyard, ready to eat outside the house.
Ye Tong brought three chairs and placed them around the table. After the chairs were placed, Leng Yu just finished the dishes.
Ye Tong returned to the house and called out his grandmother, and the three of them ate around the table.
"Come on, kid, eat more meat, there's nothing to entertain you, don't mind." Ye Tong's bowl was full of bacon.
"Grandma, it's okay, you can eat more too." Ye Tong said, taking a piece of bacon and putting it in grandma's bowl.
Leng Yu's cooking is delicious, and her cooking skills are much better than Ye Tong's. She ate three bowls of rice before she stopped.
"Leng Yu's dishes are really delicious, even better than those made in restaurants." Ye Tong leaned back on the chair with satisfaction.
"Xiaoyu, this child is very talented in cooking, but it's a little worse than me. I'll let you try what grandma made tomorrow." Grandma looked at Ye Tong kindly, she liked the girl in front of her very much.
"Really, grandma, then I'll learn to cook with you tomorrow."
"No problem, just let Xiaoyu go grocery shopping tomorrow morning, we will cook at home." Grandma has forgotten Leng Yu's existence.
Leng Yu was beside him, looking at Ye Tong and his grandmother helplessly. On the whole table, either grandma served food for Ye Tong, or Ye Tong served food for grandma, completely treating him as air.
"Ye Tong, sit and chat with my grandma, and I'll go wash the dishes." Leng Yu stood up, cleaned up the dishes, and prepared to go to the kitchen to wash the dishes.
"I'll help you." Ye Tong also stood up from the chair.
"It's okay, Xiaotong, just let him wash, you can chat with grandma." Ye Tong's lively and cheerful personality is very popular with grandma.
Leng Yu looked at his grandma with aggrieved expression: "Grandma, who is your grandson?"
"Why, I have an opinion on letting you wash the dishes. Xiaotong is a guest, so it's impossible for a guest to wash the dishes for you?" Grandma looked at Leng Yu seriously.
"Okay, grandma, I'm going to wash the dishes, you can sit and chat." Leng Yu took the collected dishes and chopsticks back to the kitchen.
After washing the dishes, Leng Yu returned to the living room, Ye Tong and grandma were sitting on the sofa chatting and laughing.
"Grandma, what are you talking about?" Leng Yu sat down beside grandma.
"Talk about the embarrassing things about your childhood." Grandma looked at Leng Yu without hesitation.
"Grandma, why are you saying everything?" Leng Yu looked at Ye Tong with embarrassment.
Ye Tong covered his mouth and smiled secretly beside him, occasionally glancing at Leng Yu, whose face was flushed.
At about ten o'clock in the evening, grandma was sleepy. Leng Yu sent her to the bedroom to sleep. After returning to the living room, Leng Yu's face returned to calm: "Ye Tong, are you going to sleep?"
"I'm not sleepy yet. Today is the happiest day of my entire high school period. Thinking about living here for the whole summer vacation, I feel very happy in my heart." Ye Tong lived alone before, but now he suddenly has two A warm person to accompany her makes her feel very happy.
Leng Yu sat down beside Ye Tong, looked at her calmly and said, "Just be happy, go to bed, there are still a lot of things to do tomorrow."
Ye Tong smiled, looked at Leng Yu happily and said, "Leng Yu, thank you for taking me to such a warm paradise, I'm going to bed, bye."
"You're welcome, you can go to the second floor if you want to take a shower."
"No need, I'll wash it tomorrow, I'm too tired today, good night." After Ye Tong finished speaking, he walked towards the old house.
Leng Yu walked to the second floor of the bungalow, opened one of the rooms and walked in. There was an iron bed inside. Leng Yu lay on it tiredly, closed his eyes, and soon fell asleep.
Ye Tong returned to the bedroom and looked around in the room. Everything was neatly arranged. There were Leng Yu's clothes in the closet, and Leng Yu High School's books were placed on the desk.
Ye Tong was lying on the bed and soon fell asleep. Even if she fell asleep, the corners of her mouth were still slightly raised, and she fell asleep with a smile.
The next morning, when it was just dawn, Leng Yu had already woken up. He carried a bag on his back and walked towards the market.
An hour later, Leng Yu had bought the vegetables and returned, Ye Tong and grandma were cooking in the kitchen.
"Grandma, the vegetables are back."
"Okay, wash the dishes." Grandma was teaching Ye Tong to cook attentively.
"Wow, grandma's cooking is really better than Leng Yu's." At the dinner table, Ye Tong was full of praise for grandma's cooking.
"Eat more if it's delicious." Grandma looked at Ye Tong kindly, she liked this lively girl more and more.
"Grandma, what are we going to do after dinner?" Ye Tong couldn't wait to go to the farmland to experience the feeling of harvesting crops.
"We do laundry at home."
"Is the farm work done?" Ye Tong looked at his grandmother with a puzzled expression.
"Just let Xiaoyu do the farm work. We do the laundry at home." Grandma couldn't bear to let Ye Tong do the farm work.
"No, grandma, I'm going to do farm work with Leng Yu, otherwise it won't be a country life experience."
"Farm work is very tiring." Grandma looked at Ye Tong's delicate skin and tender meat, and couldn't bear her to do farm work.
"It's alright, grandma, I'm not afraid of being tired." Ye Tong made up his mind to go to farm work with Leng Yu.
"Okay, be careful when you work and don't hurt yourself."
"Grandma, don't worry, I will take good care of Ye Tong." Leng Yu looked at Ye Tong calmly.
After eating, Leng Yu drove out a tricycle from the backyard and drove Ye Tong to his farmland.
Arriving at the farmland, Leng Yu took a hoe to dig potatoes, and Ye Tong loaded the potatoes into a tricycle, and the two started farm work like this.
"Ye Tong, if you're tired, take a break, don't force it." Leng Yu looked at Ye Tong with concern.
"It's okay, I'm not tired, let's work hard, there are many more." Ye Tong looked at the large farmland in front of him, and his heart was full of fighting spirit.
Busy until noon, Leng Yu drove Ye Tong back home for lunch in a tricycle. Grandma had already brought the food to the table.
Ye Tong was already hungry, looking at the delicious food on the table, he devoured it regardless of his image.
"Child, eat slowly, stop choking, come, drink some water." Grandma said, handing a glass of water.
Ye Tong cried while eating. don't know how many years ago. Since her mother died, this was the first time she felt the warmth of home.
When she was at her father's house, Ye Tong had to do a lot of housework every day, such as laundry and cooking, mopping the floor and washing dishes, without exception, in that house, she was like a maid, doing all the dirty and tiring work by herself Yes, except for her brother who occasionally helped her out, everyone else sat on the sidelines.
When she was eating, she would be stunned by her family members when she added a piece of meat. Sometimes, when the family bought roasted fish and roasted duck, those so-called family members would spend her money to buy vegetables and secretly take the meat behind her back. Food is finished.
But in Leng Yu's house, it's different. Leng Yu's grandma is reluctant to let her do the heavy work. Three people do the housework together. There is delicious food on the dinner table. eat.
Ye Tong's body twitched for a while. This was a moving twitch. This was the kind of happiness she longed for, but God took everything from her and made her a homeless vagabond.
"Xiaotong, what's wrong with you, are you choking?" Grandma asked her in a panic when she saw Ye Tong crying.
"Ye Tong, are you alright, do you want me to take you to the hospital?" Leng Yu also looked at Ye Tong worriedly.
"Grandma, Leng Yu, I'm fine, I just thought this meal was so delicious that I cried." Ye Tong wiped away her tears and smiled at Grandma and Leng Yu.
"Silly child, as long as you want to eat, grandma will make it for you at any time, don't cry, be good." Grandma held Ye Tong in her arms.
"Grandma, at this moment, I feel very happy." Ye Tong sobbed again, she hadn't felt the warmth of home for too long.
"Silly child, come back home if you want to eat the dishes I made in the future, and grandma will cook it for you at any time." Grandma gently stroked Ye Tong's hair.
"Really, grandma?" Ye Tong looked at grandma happily.
"Well, you will treat this as your second home in the future."
"No, grandma, this is my only home." Ye Tong was very happy, she was very fortunate that she followed Leng Yu back to this warm home.
