Chen Xiaofang overheard these words, and her face turned red with anger: "What nonsense, how could it be that you bought it for me, I'm not here." Besides, my house isn't in that direction. ”

As soon as everyone turned around, they realized that Xiaofang's girl was really here.

This made everyone laugh embarrassedly.

Someone deliberately joked: "That's strange, if Qingshan wasn't bought for Xiaofang, then for whom? whose girl is so blessed?"

"Yes, I don't know whose girl Qingshan has a crush on, pull a big refrigerator, I'm afraid I'm going to propose. ”

"Hey, it looks like it won't be long before you can drink Qingshan's happy wine. ”

Everyone's words made Chen Xiaofang feel good.

Liu Qingshan, that big idiot, who in the village is having a relationship with? Why doesn't she know about this? So secret?

She thought about it carefully, but she really couldn't think of who the person who was dating Liu Qingshan would be.

Because there used to be more than a dozen families at this fork in the road, and there were more than a dozen unmarried young women.

In the end, she really couldn't think of fame, so she excused herself to go to the vegetable garden, and then followed the path of the pickup truck.

Fortunately, the pickup truck finally stopped at the gate of Liu Qingshan's grandmother's yard.

Seeing this scene, Chen Xiaofang was finally relieved.

I'll just say, who would take a fancy to Liu Qingshan's big idiot.

She smiled and walked on, to her garden.

Liu Qingshan gently knocked on the courtyard door of the grandmother's house and shouted, "Grandma, it's me, Qingshan." ”

The eldest grandmother was walking around her yard, weeding the four seasons green onions in the flower pot, and watering a chili pepper in the corner, and when she was about to go back to the house, she happened to hear the sound of green mountains outside the courtyard gate.

"Qingshan, why are you here?" the eldest grandmother walked to the back of the courtyard door, through the door panel, and said outward, "Didn't I tell you, I don't have bad food here, don't waste money buying me groceries." You haven't gotten married yet, there are more places to spend money in the future, save it if you have money, don't wait until you get married in the future, you can't even make up the bride price. ”

"Grandma, you're thinking so far. Liu Qingshan said with a smile, "It's good to live the life in front of you, what do you want to do in the future?" Grandma, open the door quickly, I bought you a refrigerator." ”

"Huh?" said the grandmother in astonishment, "what did you buy me?"

"Fridge, a fridge. Liu Qingshan said clearly, "I bought a refrigerator for four thousand yuan for my family today, and then the owner who sold the refrigerator gave me a small Xiaoice box, no money, my family has a big refrigerator is enough, Xiaoice box, I thought, it is just right for you." ”

"Huh?" the grandmother was surprised, and for a moment she didn't know what to do.

"Grandma, the refrigerator doesn't cost money, it's sent, you don't have to worry. Open the door and I'll help you move in. ”

There was no sound in the courtyard.

The grandmother stood in place, dazed.

Do you want to open the door?

She was already ready to see Qingshan in her life, but now she wants to open the door?

If she opened the door, if she saw Aoyama's face, she would definitely think of Aoyama's grandfather, and then, she would remember the bits and pieces of those regrettable and painful years in the past.

Those guilt, those self-blame, must come up again and again like a raging tide.

Therefore, in order not to make herself miserable, she has been reluctant to see Qingshan all these years. Because Aoyama really looks exactly like his grandfather when he was young.

Her silver-white hair shone in the sun, like the Milky Way in a starry night, carrying countless years and past.

When the early summer breeze came, her silver hair swayed and jumped gently in the breeze along with the weeds in the yard.

So, her mind also jumped to the scene of decades ago with these warm winds.

At that time, she was still the daughter of a landlord's family, and she had not yet married a wife. Once, she had a strange disease, and her parents searched for a good doctor, so she had to be handed over to Aoyama's grandfather for treatment.

Although the parents at home looked down on a barefoot doctor like Grandpa Aoyama, they had no choice but to be a dead mother as a live horse doctor when there was really no way to do so.

Fortunately, after handing her over to Grandpa Aoyama for treatment, it didn't take long for her condition to gradually improve.

During that time, she gradually fell in love with Grandpa Aoyama.

However, Grandpa Qingshan has already had a marriage contract, and he will marry a bride soon.

Hearing the news, she felt uncomfortable and unwilling, but she couldn't do anything about it, so she could only watch Grandpa Qingshan be with other women.

Later, probably because of her anger, or maybe to get closer to Grandpa Aoyama, she accepted her grandfather's pursuit and married him.

Although her person is married to the eldest grandfather, her heart falls on Grandpa Qingshan all the time.

Grandpa probably knows the truth, so he never forces her to like herself, but just treats her silently, does his best to meet all her requirements, and tries his best to give her the best things in the world.

He naively thought that as long as he worked hard enough, he would one day be able to warm his wife's heart.

However, day after day, year after year, he never moved his wife, but even so, he still remained good to his wife and wanted to warm his wife's heart.

He gives her whatever she likes. He tried his best to please her, and he couldn't wait to pluck the stars and moon in the sky and give them to her.

However, all this was in vain, and he never warmed his wife's heart.

Until one day, he fell down without saying a word. Her sky fell, her heart hurt, and she realized that she had unknowingly fallen in love with this man who was willing to go to the trouble for herself. It's just because I'm unwilling, because I'm young and vigorous, that I ignore the true feelings in my heart.

However, she woke up too late.

By the time she came to her senses, her husband had left her and was no longer there.

Therefore, since the death of her husband, she has been living in self-blame and guilt.

She often asked herself, why didn't she understand everything while he was alive, why did she regret it when he was dead and when he was gone?

She regretted it, she blamed herself, and she often sat alone in the empty room and cried in front of the altar of the hall.

One day, Xiao Qingshan grabbed two oily dumplings and ran into the house with a dirty face, just when she met her and cried silently at Shentai.

Xiao Qingshan was taken aback, and without saying a word, he threw himself into her arms, and asked her in a milky voice: "Grandma, why are you crying? Are you hungry? I brought you oil and rice cakes." ”

With that, he raised his dirty, greasy little hand and wiped it from the corner of her eye, trying to help her dry her tears.

However, her tears became more and more turbulent, and she fell down vigorously.

Xiao Qingshan was anxious, hugged her tightly with both hands, and cried and shouted: "Woo, grandma doesn't cry, grandma doesn't cry." ”

Xiao Qingshan is a child with a pure heart, so he can't see others crying or being uncomfortable.

If he sees someone crying and someone is uncomfortable, he will cry and feel uncomfortable.

It is precisely for this reason that she is particularly partial to Qingshan. She also wants to give the best things in the world to Aoyama and to this perfect and pure child.

However, as Aoyama gets older, his appearance becomes more and more similar to Grandpa Aoyama, more and more similar, and in the end, it is almost like a mold carved out.

Every time she sees Castle Mountain, she seems to see the high-spirited Grandpa Castle Peak, and then she can't help but think of her own little things, her own ignorance, and her neglect of the person who loves her in the world because she is infatuated with Grandpa Castle Mountain.

She hated herself and was angry that she didn't cherish it well, and she didn't regret it until she lost it.

Even though decades had passed, she still couldn't get out of her deep self-blame and pain. Therefore, what she can do is to try not to see the green mountains.

But now, Aoyama came with a big refrigerator.

If it was before, she could also ask Aoyama to leave her things outside, and when Aoyama left, she would bring them in herself.

Not today. Because what Aoyama brought with her today was a refrigerator, a refrigerator that she couldn't easily move.

She was very confused and didn't know what to do.

She thought that if she opened the door and let Aoyama in, she would definitely lose her temper. But if she didn't let Aoyama in, she couldn't move the refrigerator herself.

She looked up at the blue sky with anxiety, and white clouds were leisurely floating around the bright sun.

It's like her restless and restless heart hangs in the air, not knowing what to do.

"Grandma, open the door, I'll help you move the refrigerator in. "Qingshan is sure that the eldest grandmother will not be able to move this refrigerator, so he is full of confidence this time and will be able to see the eldest grandmother.

The eldest grandmother hesitated at the other end of the door and said, "Qingshan, otherwise, you better go back, you can put the refrigerator outside." ”

"How can this work?" Qingshan refused without thinking about it, "This refrigerator is not a dish, it weighs dozens of pounds, you can't move it without me." ”

"Well, you go back first, I'll let Erliang move it later." The big grandmother said.

Liu Qingshan was a little helpless, but quickly came up with a countermeasure: "My second uncle is not at home, I just met him on the way here, he entered the mountain, and it is estimated that he will come back when it is almost dark." Grandma, although it is said that this refrigerator was given by the boss, if it is sold, it will have to be sold for more than a thousand yuan. You see, the sun is so bright today, it would not be good if the refrigerator was sunburned. ”

The grandmother looked up at the sun and couldn't help but squint her eyes.

Today's sun was so bright and bright, just like that summer afternoon, it was also such a bright sunshine, and it was such a peaceful atmosphere, and her husband hurried back from outside, dirty, and his face was covered with sweat.

He washed his hands, and quickly took his hands into the snakeskin bag he was carrying, and pulled out a handful of swarthy mountain minoru from it.

He grinned, showed a mouthful of white teeth, and smiled at her with a bright face: "Look, you must not have eaten this thing, this is a good thing, especially delicious, you can taste it." ”

Later, there were countless afternoons like that.

There are countless sunny and breezy afternoons.

There are also countless mountain minoru that emerge from her husband's hands.

However, in those countless sunny afternoons, she was not moved, did not face her heart.

So, every sunny afternoon, she would lie lazily in the yard, basking in the warm sun, thinking back to such afternoons, and feeling guilty for her ignorance.

Today is such a sunny afternoon, and she is afraid that she will have to face the green mountains.

But she didn't have the courage yet, she wasn't ready yet.

To be exact, she has no way to free herself from guilt, no way to face the pain.

"Well, then you wait a minute, and when I say I can push the door open, you can open the door again, you know?" said the grandmother.

Hearing this, Liu Qingshan was overjoyed, and nodded again and again: "I know, I know, don't worry, grandma, I will wait for you to open your mouth before pushing the door." ”

"Okay, then you wait a minute. ”

After a while, the voice of the grandmother came from inside: "Qingshan, you can push the door open." ”

"Good. Liu Qingshan's heart was full of excitement, and he stretched out his hand and pushed the door open.

However, there was no grandmother inside the door.

The sun warmly poured into the courtyard, and the quiet house was located in it, which looked a little small compared to the spacious courtyard.

In this large yard, weeds are overgrown, pale green dog's tail grass and purple lily flowers can be seen everywhere, they compete to bloom among all kinds of lush weeds, which looks exquisite, adding a lot of vitality to the yard.

In addition to weeds and wildflowers, there are also a few clumps of green duck grass in the corner of the courtyard, which are also blooming with small blue flowers in the sun.

'Cheng who can't be killed bites gold, and he can't die on his head. That's what I'm talking about.

No matter how hot the summer sun is, no matter how unbearable other weeds are, the duck grass can still vividly show its form and color.

This is somewhat similar to that of the grandmother. Liu Qingshan thought to himself.

In this world, there are many women, but there are not many women who can be lonely and widowed for their grandfather for decades like their grandmother, and moreover, they are still without children.

According to the world, most people may choose to remarry, because everyone has their own life and their own life to live, even if they remarry, it is understandable.

But the grandmother didn't.

She is like a duck in the corner, day after day, year after year.

"Big grandma. Liu Qingshan called, "Where are you?"

He looked around, but he didn't see the big grandmother.

"I, I'm in the house. The voice of the grandmother came from inside the closed door of the hall, "Qingshan, you can move the refrigerator in, just put it in the yard, and when you leave, I'll go out and get something to cover it, and then I'll ask Erliang to help me move in tomorrow." ”
