2. Father

He didn't tell the people in his family about his return, let alone tell them about his resignation, so when his father said this, Qiu Ge was surprised.

"If you dare to go again, then I'll be sick. The old man threatened.

"Oops, it scared the hell out of me, I thought you had superpowers, hehe... Du Qiuge couldn't help laughing.

"Qiu Ge, aren't you leaving? why?" the sister-in-law asked anxiously.

Du Qiuge quickly explained why he came back, and said that he wanted to stay in his hometown, but he didn't tell his family before resigning.

"You don't need to do this, we can take care of your parents and parents, how can you just quit with such a good job?"

"Sister-in-law, you and my brother have taken care of my parents for so many years, if they are both healthy, then I will work for a few more years, but now that they are old and need to be taken care of, I should come back. ”

"It's too much for you to sacrifice like this, huh?"

"Sister-in-law, your efforts and sacrifices are greater, I'm just making up for my previous debts, and besides, living with my parents, isn't it better for the family to be lively?"

"Tell your brother in a moment, I'm going to cook. The sister-in-law hurriedly turned around and went to the kitchen.

Du Qiuge saw her tears, and his heart was a little sour, but he immediately asked his mother where the eldest brother had gone, hiding his excitement.

"He's gone to the field, Xiaoyue, go call your dad and tell him that the second uncle is back. Mother commanded.

Helped his father into the house again, Du Qiuge went to the car to take out the gifts and distribute them to the children and parents, and the brother and sister-in-law's share was given to Du Yue to take to their room.

After a while, the eldest brother Du Qiushuo came back, and the two brothers began to chat, and it was not until dinner that the sister-in-law told the eldest brother that Du Qiuge was not leaving.

The eldest brother also objected to him coming back, but he couldn't change Du Qiuge's determination, and after talking for a long time, he finally had to say let him stay for a while.

"Brother, you can find some craftsmen tomorrow, I want to clean up our two houses. ”

"How are you going to clean up? Who else are you looking for, why don't we just clean up our own family?"

"No, you don't understand what I mean, I want to make a big change, not only to renovate the interior, but also to change the exterior, and to build a suite. ”

"Ah, what are you trying to do? You just came back and you are going to build a lot of construction, are you really not leaving?" asked the eldest brother Du Qiushuo in surprise.

"At least my parents won't leave when they're there, I'm going to build a house with modern facilities such as baths, flush toilets, air conditioners, etc., so that my parents can live in it much more comfortable, and I'm going to renovate our old house, and I'm going to have all the equipment and functions, and I'm going to flatten it and build a glass house." ”

"How rich are you? Isn't that a waste of money?"

"Hey, hey, I still have this money, so I can make everyone's living environment better. ”

In fact, there are quite a few people living in three houses, the parents live with Du Zhe in the East House, and the brother and sister-in-law live in the West House, Du

Yue's hut on the northwest side, which was already full, and when he came back, he squeezed Du Zhe into the Westinghouse.

If you stay for two days and leave, it's okay, but if you don't leave now, you need to build a house.

The eldest brother couldn't change Du Qiuge's mind, so he had to let him toss; the next day, he contacted the town's engineering team, which was not formal, but it was also formed by famous craftsmen in these ten miles and eight townships, and the bricklayers, carpenters, plasterers, etc. were very complete, but the person in charge would not come to negotiate the contract until the afternoon.

After breakfast, the eldest brother and sister-in-law greeted Qiu Ge and rode a motorcycle up the mountain.

When he came back and liberated his brother and sister-in-law, they went up to the mountain to pick vegetables, also to try it for him, a person who was not at home all the year round.

My father can still take care of himself now, and his condition is not very serious, so he doesn't need to take too much care, as long as he doesn't get out of sight, everyone still lets him deal with the things around him.

"Mom, why haven't we prepared the garden behind us, it's time to plant it soon. Standing by the window and looking back, Du Qiuge found that the garden was still full of dry grass, so he asked.

You must know that his family's garden is not small, from the house to the village road behind it is more than 50 meters, more than 60 meters from east to west, and it is four or five acres of land.

In fact, it is not only his house, the land here is vast and sparsely populated, and the gardens of every family are not small, two or three acres, four or five acres, and the largest can be six or seven acres.

"Oh, your father and I can't do it anymore, where do your brother and sister-in-law have time? In addition to taking care of us, they have to go up to the mountains to pick vegetables, which will be sown right away, and they have to accompany them to study, so they don't have time to do it at all. ”

"Then this is not planted?"

"Alas, in two days, open a small piece, and plant some eggplant, peppers, and beans to eat yourself. ”

"Then aren't the rest blind?" Du Qiuge studied agriculture and worked in the seed industry, so he was very familiar with the land and had great feelings, and he couldn't see the waste of land.

"Oh, how much money can this little bit of land have? Now almost every family doesn't grow it, especially those who work part-time, and no one cares about it, and even the house is thrown away. ”

"None of them are doing their jobs. Father interjected suddenly.

"Why don't you do your job? they're all going to make a lot of money, who can afford this income?" said the mother.

"Hmph, don't farm anymore, starve to death these guys who forget their roots. "My father has been a farmer all his life, and he is closer to the land.

"Hehe, Dad, shall we go to tidy up the garden later?" Qiu Ge wanted to plant the garden, but he also had to take care of his father, so he wanted to take him.

"Do you? You haven't farmed before?" said his father, who still hated him.

"Hahaha, I just won't, so I let you teach me, are you willing?"

"Okay, I'll teach you now, or I'll starve to death in the future?" his father got up and walked out, Qiu Ge smiled at his mother, and hurriedly followed his father out.

To be honest, Qiu Ge now wants to stay with his father more, let him accept his long-term companionship, and don't let his father get bored with him, and if he wants to do this, he must find a way to make his father attached to him.

In addition, he also wanted to eliminate the vague strangeness between himself and his father.

Although it is a father and son, they are very close to each other, but since I entered adolescence, I gradually feel a sense of distance from my parents, especially my father.

Every time I come back to meet, I don't eliminate it, but I feel that I come back to complete the established and necessary tasks, but I just mix family affection in this kind of task, which is more like a patterned date meeting.

His father's love for himself and for his father had not diminished, but the way of expressing it was different and obscure, and now he wanted to regain the intimacy, intimacy with his father when he was young.

However, he knew that it would not be easy, but he wanted to try, after all, his father's personality was changing due to illness.

The father went to the warehouse and found tools such as a head and a shovel, Qiu Ge quickly took it, and then the two went to the backyard and began to clear the land and plough it.

There are strict rules in the mountainous areas that do not allow burning of wasteland, for fear that open fire operations will directly ignite the mountains and forests, so they can only use tools to clear the weeds before ploughing the ground.

Qiu Ge found that his father's thinking is still very clear, unlike what his mother, brother, and sister-in-law described, they say that he doesn't know people and doesn't remember things.

"Dad, is it still Uncle Liu's house that lives over there?" asked Qiu Ge, pointing to the neighbor to the east.

"Yes, there are only two of them left in your Uncle Liu's family, and my son's family has gone to the south to work. ”

"Ouch, isn't Uncle Liu's leg bad?

"What's the way to deal with it, my son sends them money, and they are at home to support their old age, which is also good. ”

"Why didn't they follow?"

"I don't want to go to the city, I can't sleep. "My father's mind is not bright again.

"No, I'm asking them why they don't go. ”

"They, they're afraid of spending money over there, right?"

Qiu Ge felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, he thought about whether his father was afraid of adding a burden to himself, so he didn't live with him in the city?

This was a momentary thought, and he didn't want his father to see it, so he asked, "Then their garden doesn't grow either?"

"Alas, what are you planting? If you are not in good health, you can't do heavy work at all; you see that your Uncle Zhao Zhen's house in the west doesn't plant either; Uncle Li's house and Lao Ma's family in the back are the same, and there are old people left in the family, so they can only be abandoned; the two of us can't get it, I'm tired." ”

"Hehe, I didn't tell you to get it. Qiu Ge felt helpless, chatting with his father really requires a high IQ.

"Then you can't do it, three minutes of blood, and after a while, it's hot and your passion is gone, then you don't want to do it. "Father didn't believe that Qiu Ge could persevere.

It's really tired, I haven't worked hard for a long time, looking at my father who is still transporting weeds outside, but I'm already a little exhausted, Qiu Ge is not only embarrassed now, but also sweaty.

Of course, my father did light work, and he did all the hard work, but my father was a sick man.

"Oh, you know passion, it's very cultured. He joked with his father.

"Why, I don't look like you Lao Tzu? I think I was also a cultural person back then, and I gave you two brothers' names. The old man still tilted his neck, squinted his eyes, and nodded his head to Qiu Ge.

"Oh my God, you're also called a cultural person, are you still proud of giving me a feminine name?" Qiu Ge complained, he didn't like his name very much when he was in school, and many classmates made fun of it.

"Lao Tzu already had your brother's son at that time, and I thought that another one would be a daughter, so I thought about the name in advance, who knew that I would still be a kid when I was born, so I would use it. ”

"You're so cultured, why don't you think about one again?"

"Hey, hey, in fact, I always raised you as a girl when you were a child, and you are also like a little girl, oh, where did Xiaoyue go? Xiaoyue is a girl. As soon as she said the girl, she jumped to where Du Yue went.

"Yes, of course Xiaoyue is a girl, you old man, was it so bad at that time?" Qiu Ge was very helpless, he only knew about it, it turned out that he was 'wrongly loved'.

"Ouch, what are you talking about, hehe......" the father laughed.

At this time, Qiu Ge was pleasantly surprised to find that his father, who rarely laughed in front of him before, was now smiling like a child, and he could see that he was really happy.
