MTL - Peach and Plum Do Not Speak (The Silent Cherry And Plum Blossoms)-Chapter 12
The next day, in the autumn afternoon, Yan Xi was about to go back to the city. Yan Yinan didn't want to drive, and was going to rub her car.
The two walked to the garage, and An Zhi trotted from behind to catch up, taking a step back, so when he saw it, he smiled: "Your daughter is here to see you off."
"What's the matter?" Yan Xi squatted down and asked her.
An Yi woke up early and found that she was lying in Yan Xi's bed alone, thinking she was moving around while she fell asleep, but Yan Xi
didn't say anything.
Yan Xi casually tied her hair, with a plain face, revealing a fair and long neck, with a smile on the corners of her lips.
Yan Yinan stuck his head out of the car: "Hey, little An Zhi, are you here to see me off..."
"Well..." An Zhi hesitated for a while shyly: "Uncle San..." Yan Yinan teased An Yiyi for a while in the morning, and insisted on asking her to call her uncle, but now she finally called it out.
"Ah, it really is cuter than boys..." Yan Yinan smiled.
Yan Xi gave Yan Yinan a blank look and asked her in a low voice, "Huh?"
"When are you coming back?" An Zhi asked.
"I really can't say this..." Yan Xi sighed, and she pondered for two seconds, "Can I give you my phone number? Can you remember?"
An Zhi nodded his head.
"137*****", Yan Xi asked, "Can you remember without a pen and paper?"
An Zhi nodded again, she was naturally sensitive to numbers. Eleven digits, most people may remember 3+3+3+2, she remembered 3+4+4 like this, and she remembered her grandfather's phone number like this.
She repeated the number, patted her head, praised her, and said:
"Remember to call me if you have anything."
"Anything is fine, there are landlines on every floor of the house, eh?" Yan Xi looked at her seriously.
An Zhi nodded again, her honey-colored skin and cheeks were pink, her eyes were childish, and her expression was reluctant.
Yan Xi thought about saying a few words to her easily, she smiled lightly: "You call me grandpa and grandma, grandpa and grandma now, and third brother and third uncle, so what should you call me?"
An Zhi squeezed his little hand embarrassedly, and said in a glutinous voice, "Aunt... Aunt?"
The name "Auntie" is quite cute when it is called by a little loli's milky voice. Especially the child of Anzhi, calling her sister-in-law "Aunt Xiao" and calling her "Auntie" proves that she is much closer in her heart than others. But Yan Xi, like all girls in their early 20s, is actually not used to being called auntie. But it's not right to call her older sister.
She scratched her hair and smiled, "You still call me by my name..."
Xiao Anzhi blinked, looked at her, and suddenly his dimples deepened: "Xiao Wu?"
Yan Xi was stunned, a smile flickered from the corner of his eyes, and he reached out and pinched her cheek: "No big or small."
An Zhi laughed.
When the car was moving, a small figure of An Zhi could be seen from the rear mirror of the car, and she waved her little hand.
Yan Yinan sat comfortably in the back seat of the car, relaxed and said leisurely, "I didn't expect you to like children so much?"
An old song by Zhang Yusheng "Fish that swims all day long" is playing slowly in the car: the fish that swim all day long, keep swimming, those who miss you all day long, love never stop...
Yan Xi's eyes were fixed on the front, and she whispered: "...Hey...I don't know..."
After a while, Yan Xi asked him, "By the way, is there an elementary school near my house?"
Yan Yinan shrugged: "How do I know, my father bought this house, I'm so young. But it seems that I bought it because I wanted you to go to school near here, but it wasn't later... So we went back to the old house..."
Yan Xi nodded. There are so many things to do, all she lacks now is time, so she can only take her time.
At night, An Zhi was alone in her room to organize her things. Her small schoolbag, her photo album, contained many photos with her grandfather. Her wallet, opened, contained some change, which she used to take the bus.
She is in a kindergarten class, and the children in the class don't even recognize money. Fortunately, my grandfather took her to the vegetable market since she was a child. When she was a child, An Zhi watched her buy food and exchanged money for money... Before she knew it, she learned to recognize money.
In the month she lived in that house, her unremarkable "father" appeared only once, stayed for half an hour, said a few words to her, and then gave her ten red coins. When she was in kindergarten, the security grandpa at the gate of Anzhito gave her change.
An Zhi sorted out the remaining money, and then counted... She stopped suddenly... Little hand... touched a few cyan, brown, silver, and purple banknotes,
It was given to her by Yan Xi.
She said, "Do you recognize these?" Then she told her one by one, and taught her what to count. They even play the game of buying things, such as "I want to buy a bottle of water. If a bottle of water costs 3 yuan, if I give it 5 yuan, how much will I get? How much do I need to pay for 10 yuan?"
In fact, Ann had already met.
She said, "Come on, here are you, you can buy anything you want, or invite your classmates to eat?"
An Zhi snickered, Yan Xi had no idea that other children in the kindergarten would not bring money. She didn't even know that An Zhi knew how to change money and gave her a lot of change.
An Zhi was reluctant to take it, but Yan Xi smiled and said to her, "Then...you can give it back to me when you grow up..."
Growing up, how long will it take...
Yan Xi said, "Well... when you are about the same height as me."
An Zhi is so depressed, so how long will it take... In her sight, Yan Xi is very tall, taller than many adults she has seen.
Even the big fat man and the small fat man are taller than himself...
That's why they didn't want to call her "sister".
Said she was a dwarf.
They are still chubby!
An Zhi pouted, she picked up the rabbit toy Yan Xi bought for her, pulled it, bang dong dong, and beat the drum. An Zhi's dimple sipped deeply and was very happy.
She thought about it and opened the door. There is a large living room on every floor of Yan's old house, and there is a telephone beside the sofa. An Zhi stretched out his head to listen to the movement in the living room.
When she was sure there was no one else, she trotted over, lay down on the soft sofa and caressed her hands, she pressed one number at a time,
Then I held the receiver and listened to the "beep" for a while, and then I heard Yan Xi's soft voice: "...Aunt Xin?"
An Zhigu pouted, "...It's me."
The other party paused for a moment, and his voice contained a bit of a smile: "An Zhi?"
The dimples on An Zhi's cheeks jumped.
"how?"
"..." Before calling An Zhi, she didn't think about why she wanted to call her, so after she stayed for a while, she could only rush to find a word: "You, when are you coming back?"
"Ah..." There was some noise in the background on Yan Xi's side, as if several people were talking to her, "Tao Tao... I may not be able to go home this week..."
"Oh..." An Zhi's little fingers twisted the telephone line.
"…Is there anything interesting in kindergarten?"
An Zhi just thought of one thing, "Our teacher asked us to take a fish to the kindergarten yesterday for observation... Grandma Xin gave me a little goldfish... Then one of our classmates brought the crucian carp his mother prepared for dinner!"
"What? Haha..." Yan Xi laughed out loud.
An Zhi thought about Yan Xi's smile, the corners of his lips curved slightly, and those smiling eyes were full of a bright smile.
When she started to read classical Chinese, she accidentally read a sentence in Tang Duan Chengshi's "Youyang Zazu · Zhi Nuo Gao Xia", "It's a spring night, the wind is clear and the moon is bright." I remembered her smile at this time.
"How do you know it's a crucian carp?" Yan Xi finally stopped laughing, the voice of a slight panting was in his ear.
"Yeah! I know, my grandfather used to take me fishing! I recognize crucian carp, grass carp, and those small loach-like fish... and big loach-like fish..."
"Pfft..." Yan Xi laughed again, she didn't say "little loach-like fish" or "big loach-like fish", which was not the real name of the fish. She sighed slightly: "An Zhi is really smart..."
An Zhile shook his feet: "The teacher told a story today, but I've heard that story before..."
"Oh, what story?" The background on Yan Xi's side was a little noisy, she seemed to take a few steps, and then quieted down a bit.
"Well... just a little girl who met a talking rabbit and fell into a hole..."
"Oh, this story... Did the teacher tell you there is a second story, she went through a big mirror."
"Really!? The teacher didn't say anything!"
Yan Xi smiled again: "Then can I tell you next time?"
An Zhi's eyes just curved with joy, and when she gagged again, she said disappointedly, "But you won't be back this week..."
"Ah, I'm sorry..." Yan Xi coaxed her, "I will try to go home next week, okay?"
An Zhi held the small head of the telephone and nodded hard: "Mmmmmmmmm!"
Yan Xi chuckled and said, "Do you have anything you want to eat? I'll buy it and go home..."
An Zhi was embarrassed to say.
Someone called Yan Xi's name over the phone, she answered and asked her softly, "An Zhi?"
An Zhi was a little dazed, as if Yan Xi called her by her nickname after the last nightmare. Now she doesn't bark anymore.
An Zhi poked the phone line and whispered, "...I want to eat peaches..."
"Want to eat peaches, right? Okay, I'll buy them for you next week." Yan Xi smiled and said, "It's too late... You should go to bed."
An Zhi was satisfied, she said obediently, "Okay."
"Well, cover the quilt, it will cool down at night recently."
"OK."
"Hang up the phone."
"Um."
An Zhi put down the phone, Yan Xi was right, it was already much colder at night, and her little feet were icy. She ran back to the room quickly, got into the bed, and touched the little rabbit, full of expectations for next week.
The author has something to say: Observe the fish stem from Weibo.
"Small loach-like fish" I can only say in my native language, and I don't know what the scientific name is.
The "big loach-like fish" is the eel, that's what I used to call it.
"Alice in Wonderland" also has a sequel, "Alice Through the Looking Glass," as well as a movie of the same name. The screenwriter of both films is the same as the screenwriter of Maleficent.
