Chapter 187: Back to the Old Mansion
When he returned to Yao's house, the food burning in the kitchen had already been served.
I don't know if Jin Ju is in a good mood today or what, and he actually cut off two pieces of bacon that had been hanging on the beam of the house.
The marinated bacon mixed with the potatoes newly harvested in the cellar is simmered in a large pot, and when the pot is boiled, it is sprinkled with a handful of tender chives, not to mention the smell is so tempting.
"Mom, is there anything good about our family today? Why are you so generous, even bacon!"
Yao Xin looked at the food on the table, with both surprise and a little joy on his face.
A good meal is like a holiday for their family, which often means that something good must happen at home.
"Look at your girl is so big, and she doesn't speak lightly or heavily, does it have to be good to eat meat at home?"
Jin Ju glanced at her daughter, but the smile on the corner of her mouth was conveyed to the bottom of her heart.
Since she got up this morning, Yao Qing has been instructing her to take out her clothes.
Instead of the usual linen clothes, he had to wear a wide jacket that he didn't wear often before he was injured.
This was the most expensive piece of clothing that Yao Qing bought after he got married, and the leather jacket was very popular in that era and was a symbol of fashion.
After so many years, he was willing to take out this dress that symbolized his youth and good condition and put it on again, which really made Jin Ju's eyes red.
"Qin Fan, your uncle has been thinking about going to your Qin family's old house today, I heard that you have finished sowing all the seeds today, if it's okay, take him over after eating." ”
Jin Ju served rice on one side, and said to Qin Fan on the other hand.
She felt that there was no need for her elders to have a very good attitude towards juniors, especially since Qin Fan was still a guilty person.
"Okay, I'll take my uncle off now. Qin Fan agreed, but at the same time, he didn't expect that Yao Qing was so eager to go to the Qin family's old mansion to see.
The two of them originally agreed to wait for the afternoon to come over, after all, after all, Yao Qing should lie in bed and rest after noon.
The more impatient he was, the more Qin Fan felt that something was wrong in his heart.
On the second floor, Yao Qing sat on the bed alone, unable to move his lower body.
He was wearing the leather jacket that had been wiped fresh and clean with a wet cotton cloth, and it should have cost a lot of money when he bought it, and even after hanging it in the closet for many years, the leather was still very new when he took it out.
Yao Qing was a little unusual today, he sat on the edge of the bed, his two eyes staring at the mountain village outside through the somewhat foggy window.
He looked far away, as if through time, and the light from the glass window on the second floor shone on his face, which looked a little pale because he had not been out of the room for many years, adding a layer of peace.
"Uncle, my aunt has finished the meal, let's go down. Qin Fan said softly, a little unbearable to break the tranquility when he was alone.
"Well, after so many years at home, it's time to go out and have a look. ”
Yao Qing smiled, and the whole person exuded a sense of freedom from the inside out.
He seemed to have been reborn, and his face did not have the decay look that had been born from years of living at home, it was a feeling of raising his eyebrows, about to see new hope.
Qin Fan was puzzled, he really thought that Yao Qing was so happy today because he was going to take a look at the Qin family's old mansion.
With all his strength in his hands, he held Yao Qing in his arms and went downstairs step by step.
After many days of conditioning, Yao Qing's weight was a little heavier than before, and this obvious change made Qin Fan feel a little comforted in his heart.
At the dinner table, although everyone didn't talk much, they were all a little happy in their hearts.
Yao Qing is willing to go out to have a look, which means that he can look directly at the strange gazes cast by others, and the family is pleased.
"Qin Fan, the weather has been very cold in the past two days, and there is often a strong wind outside, you can give your uncle a good look at it later, and put a blanket on him, don't let people get cold. ”
"By the way, he is often very thirsty now, you bring this kettle with you, and give him two sips when he is thirsty, but don't drink too much, lest he can't hold his pee." ”
Before he could go out, Jin Ju began to move in a hurry, as if Yao Qing was not going to the Qin family's old mansion a few hundred meters away today, but to go to some other place through mountains and rivers.
"Okay, don't you just go to their old house to have a look, and don't go far, don't talk about it. ”
Yao Qing waved his hand, didn't bring anything, and directly asked Qin Fan to hold him in a wheelchair.
The Analects were also bought by the family under the doctor's instructions after Yao Qing was injured, so that he could go out often for ventilation.
But after the wheelchair was bought, it didn't even open the plastic film, and it has been in the warehouse for so many years, and now there is no big problem except for the sound of some rattling machines aging when moving.
The wheelchair is very new, and in the four or five years since I bought it, I am afraid that today is the first time it has been actually used.
After lunch, a slight wind began to blow outside, accompanied by the warm sunshine in the sky, making people feel warm all around.
"Uncle, in fact, after so many years, you should have come out to take a look, it's not a problem to keep yourself locked in the house. ”
Qin Fan said softly, pressed the handle of the wheelchair with both hands, and gently drove forward.
When I went to the Qin family's old house today, only the two of them were there, Jin Ju was busy eating chickens, ducks and pigs, while Yao Xin was going back to the village clinic to take another round of inventory of the new medicines that arrived yesterday.
"Ever since I got hurt, I didn't think much of it was a bad feeling, and I didn't think much about dealing with people. Yao Qing let out a long sigh.
He looked up at the surrounding mountains and rivers, and felt that it was a little different from what he saw in the courtyard of the Yao family.
The Qin family's hometown is a certain distance from the Yao family, and after Aunt He and the others left this morning, Qin Fan has never returned.
Those three people are all diligent people, what kind of appearance the Qin family's old mansion has become, Qin Fan still doesn't know, but no matter how clean he thinks, it will be clean.
Looking at the Qin family's old mansion that gradually appeared in front of him and was getting closer and closer to him, Yao Qing suddenly became in a trance, and even his eyelashes began to tremble slightly.
When this house was built, it was very magnificent, and the old and young masters of the village came forward to help.
He went up the mountain to cut down the beams of the house, and at that time, seven or eight men had to erect a single beam.
Now, seeing the Qin family's old mansion become so dilapidated, and moss grows between the roof tiles, in the end, it makes people sigh that time flies.
