Asti Girl Carrying the Curse
Chapter 243. Nindya Faradina's
The children woke up in the morning happily. They seemed to really enjoy the morning view presented from the balcony of the resort they rented, on the second floor. Akbar carried Lek No and Bulek Ratih holding Qani while looking around the inn from the height of the balcony . So as far as the eye can see, there is a stretch of green rice fields across from the resort they live in.
As a farmer, Lek No also felt amazed by the fertile rice plants in the rice field. Because the rice fields here get regular water supply from irrigation coming from dams or reservoirs that are widely built in Madiun district. One of them is to drain the rice fields of residents.
In addition to watering, some reservoirs or dams are also a favorite tourist visit. Because in the reservoir is also equipped with infrastructure with various facilities for a very complete reaction.
While looking at the natural beauty that was in front of him, Lek No still offered prayers and gratitude for the blessings of God. For having endowed his family with health, a more decent life, and a sustenance that continues to flow.
Even today, the man and his wife are always patient. They expect his son, Joko Adi Winangun, to find a woman to be his heart, to get married and form a family. Although all this time, he received the presence of both Asti's children, as his own grandson. Ninuk and Joko's parents this time really enjoyed their vacation.with their children, daughter-in-law and grandchildren.
Last night Joko also got a call from Mbak Nindya Faradina. The youngest son of Om Sampurno Hardiman Winangun. Joko chatted for quite a while on the upper balcony, until almost midnight.
The young woman was going to meet them, because yesterday she had to overtime in her office, in a bank owned by the local government. So he could not meet his father's relatives because he was busy in work.
The beautiful girl later intends to come to the inn, as well as get acquainted with Asti and her family. Because he rarely went to the home of his father's relatives, who mostly live on the border between Central Java and East Java.
At 09:00 came a new year's Suzuki Xpander car in front of resort number 22. Leon Narendra Murti's family stayed there. Bulek Ratih who received their arrival. Because Akbar had whined to his father to swim again in a special swimming pool for children. Even though the pool water behind the main building of the hotel that morning still feels very cold. So he invited his son to walk - the road around the inn to the end of the village border.
Outside the main gate of the hotel and resort were many merchants gathered, offering their sales. They lined up along the door all the way to the other side until the road in front of him.
They sell a variety of merchandise. Some sell various handicrafts such as accessories, handbags, key chains and various other souvenirs . Many traders also held their wares in the form of fruits picked from their own gardens. Like papaya, banana or seasonal fruit such as mango, durian or avocado.
There are traders who sell breakfast ala their village, also a variety of regional specialties in addition to brem. Mbak Ning and Bu Jum were enjoying mixed tofu, which the seller was using a wheelbarrow. They enjoyed the breakfast by sitting around, on a mat held near the rice field which is located across the street Citra Hotel.
The scenery next to it is a rice field owned by locals, whose pad just started to grow and rise. From the irrigation channel that is not too big it sounds gurgling water that is flowed to the ripening of rice fields in the lower land.
Lek No, Leon and the drivers took a walk to the village at the end of the road there with Akbar. Another case with Qani and Asti who are enjoying marrow porridge, with sweet palm sugar water sauce.
Ninuk was choosing several keychains with a variety of unique embellishments from resin. The seller said, all of it is the work of handicrafts from teenagers who are members of cadet coral organizations in the village in this region. Because the objects are very unique, some visitors who partially stay at the resort and hotel are interested in taking a look and buy as well. So the seller runs all his wares on a piece of plastic carpet.
The price of key chains and refrigerator magnets ranging from 5000 thousand rupiah to 10,000 rupiah per piece. Ninuk had chosen ten pieces of hanging keys for the souvenirs of his classmates at the campus later.
" Mr Asti, there is his son Mr. Sampurno coming to the inn. Bulek Ratih asked Mbak to meet him immediately !" Report Putri who had chosen to stay at the resort with Bulek Ratih.
The girl grabs Qani from her mother's embrace, while Asti is busy looking for money in her purse, to pay the price of porridge to the seller. While carrying four marrow porridge that has been ordered to be taken home. The porridge is placed in a large glass container of mineral water.
Marrow porridge is a porridge made from rice flour cooked with coconut milk and water, stirred until tanak and cooked. How to eat it watered with broth. The gravy comes from finely sliced palm sugar cooked with water until it dissolves and thickens slightly, sometimes given pandan leaves to make it fragrant.
Qani laughs - laughter in Princess 's arms, seeing her mother lagging a bit far behind her. Asti pretended to call his son, while trying to chase after him. Because the Princess walked very quickly, to the resort where they had been staying there.
Until Asti was surprised by the presence of two women who sat on the front porch of the resort, accompanied by a chat by Bulek Ratih. Bulek Ratih's face also looks uncomfortable with the presence of Mbak Dian Larasati there.
Asti was stunned to see the child figure of his daughter, Om Sampurno. Beyond his estimate . Because he was not comfortable yesterday afternoon with the way Ma'am Dian, behaved to him. Even now he is also coming here.
They embrace each other warmly. The woman appeared to be two or three years younger. From the age of Asti. Because only last year he completed his education at a campus in Malang. Then get a vacancy in one of the jobs in one of the government banks in this city.
" It's Nindya, huh? Sorry, I only met Mas Idham and Mas Panji!"
The girl smiled, as Asti mentioned her two brothers. They have been going around since high school to see some of his father's relatives, with his motorcycle group. They do that every long school holiday, with the term touring.
" Right said Mother, Madam Asti is very beautiful! Deserve Bude Ayu's latehumah was also once the flower of his village in Sendang Mulyo, right?"
"'Tell time? I'm just a villager, ko, Ma'am. Understandably born and raised in the village. So fear is less appropriate and looks squalid, huh?" reply sweet Asti.
" Who said? I really appreciate Mbah Harjo Winangun, after all! You are all descendants of great men. Dad was a little careful pinning Winangun's name on his last name . Fear of being inappropriate... The Mbah and Mbah Buyut are highly respected fighters and community leaders."
This time Asti was busy chatting with the Nindya. Regardless of the presence of the tantenya Nindya. Salah himself yesterday he refused his handout an introductory sign. He thought, being born in the city and a little familiar with foreign cultures with the ability to speak English made him very great. So he can underestimate people who are not as level as him.
Asti just gave up. Because only he was underestimated by Mother Sarita's sister. Just be careful, if he dares to harass this family member. He may have to deal with the authorities or to the Green table again!
" Ugh, try if our house is a bit close, yes. Ma'am! We can be best, right. Free I have two older brothers, not that it protects even usually get bullied...." Nindya complained.
" Well, baby?" admonish Nindya sweet when he saw Qani carried Bulek Ratih, meet them . Qani did not refuse when he was carried by his brother." How pretty you are, anyway!" sincere praise.
The baby girl looked at Nindya's gentle face and felt the woman's sincerity. So Qani wanted to carry Nindya for a long time. As they continue the conversation.
" Asti Mbak ngundang time for the wedding with Mas Leon, we and our family are visiting Mbak Inayah who is giving birth to her first child in Surabaya... Can't come!"
" It's okay! Joko and Mas Leon have come and stayed at Nindya's house?"
" Yes, not fun! We'll meet for a second... Because Mas Leon felt bad for his guest who is a lawyer from his headquarters. So I find a hotel for them to stay at once close to the location to Sumber Sari village."
The princess brought drinks and snacks that Bulek Ratih bought this morning to the food vendors who came from door to door at this resort. Some use baskets to carry their wares. Many also carry a container of bamboo called tampah on the head.
Bulek Ratih bought a meal, fried also some pieces of uli or at the place where Asti called the meal.
" All these families are taken all vacation, are you?"
" yes. Other than the Lek No Family, there were two Elf drivers as well. There are also momong children, the same who help take care of the house! Mas Leon who took a vacation, as well as see the process of paying for the land that has been freed!"
