Chapter 042: Distant Relatives
When Shen Zhishu said this, he paused, and his eyes became regretful, as if there was some emotion blocking his heart.
Lin Su noticed that he quickly changed the topic, and held her and said jokingly: "Grandma, my grandfather had such a good eye, but you are a big beauty." ”
Shen Zhishu is a beauty, this is an indisputable fact, even if time has passed now, the years are no more, and the years have carved a mark on her face, but it still can't erase her delicate facial features, as well as the demeanor and temperament on her body.
In fact, Lin Su's appearance is largely inherited from her, especially the clear and translucent peach blossom eyes, which are exactly the same as Shen Zhishu.
"Hehe, we've learned to coax people now. Shen Zhishu patted Lin Su's hand affectionately, and said with a smile: "Your grandfather is an honest and responsible good person, and it is my blessing to meet him." ”
When she said this, her expression was filled with happiness and remembrance.
Lin Su was interested, "Grandma, how did you and grandpa get together in the first place?"
She only knew that her grandmother was a young man who went to the countryside, and she stayed after meeting her grandfather here, and the rest was not clear.
"The two of us......" Shen Zhishu curled the corners of his mouth, slowly recalling the old days.
When she went down to Anhui City as an educated youth, she was unfamiliar with the place, and she had a beautiful face, so she was often pointed out by the locals behind her back, and even the opposite sex who went to the countryside together had bad intentions towards her.
At that time, she could be said to be cautious and inferior and timid every day.
Until Lin Tian appeared in her life.
Lin Tian was a young bachelor at the time, and he fed the whole family without hunger, but he didn't have a bit of ruffianism, and he didn't have the habit of being stingy, he got along with everyone very well, and he was also polite to them.
In addition, he has good facial features, a tall figure, and is diligent, and many female intellectuals in the countryside have a good impression of him.
Only Shen Zhishu did not.
At that time, she just wanted to live in peace, and she didn't dare to have the idea of a little wind and snow, but fate sometimes loves to play tricks on people, but Lin Tian secretly fell in love with her.
Everyone knows Lin Tian's situation, Shen Zhishu may be empathetic, and he had an unprecedented opportunity to talk to him.
After a chat, the two also became sympathetic.
Lin Tian began to take care of Shen Zhishu intentionally or unintentionally, and slowly, the village began to gossip, and many elders privately persuaded Lin Tian to let him get closer to Shen Zhishu less, and naturally he had to arrange a few words about her.
Lin Tian not only didn't listen to her, but also defended her, and in the end, he simply opened his heart to everyone.
After Shen Zhishu found out, she was both happy and shy, she could feel Lin Tian's care and thoughtfulness on weekdays, everyone was unmarried and unmarried, and she naturally had feelings for him in her heart.
But she was also afraid, afraid that her identity would bring trouble to Lin Tian.
Lin Tian didn't care, in his words, the two of them had nothing to worry about, there was nothing to be afraid of, he only cared about Shen Zhishu's mind.
Shen Zhishu is not a twisted person, Lin Tian said so, she didn't have any scruples, the two of them officially opened up to each other, supported and took care of each other, and finally tied the knot.
Lin Su listened to the story of his grandparents back then, and couldn't help but squint and smile, "Grandma, your love at that time was so beautiful." ”
Shen Zhishu saw the yearning in his granddaughter's eyes, and sighed softly: "The relationship is good, but life is very difficult, if your grandfather is not physically overworked, he will not leave in his forties." ”
Speaking of this, she remembered that another relative also died prematurely.
"Your little uncle left early. ”
"Huh?" Lin Su hadn't come out of his grandfather's emotions yet, and he was suddenly surprised when he heard the news from his uncle and grandfather, "Uncle and grandpa passed away?"
"Well, he got lung cancer fifteen years ago, when you were only two years old and still young, the man should remember that there were a few days that year when your uncle and I were not at home, and I went back to the imperial capital to see him. ”
Shen Zhishu didn't really let go of the past until then, and when she saw Shen Dali's tombstone, she also felt remorse in her heart, if she knew that her brother would leave so early, she would not refuse people thousands of miles away.
Lin Su silently calculated according to his grandmother's age, his uncle and grandfather were fifty-two years old when they left, and they were not very old like their grandfather, which was very regrettable.
She couldn't help but ask, "Grandma, after my uncle and grandfather left, haven't we moved around the two of us?"
"Well, there was no contact with your uncle when he was there, and it was even more unnecessary for him to leave, but every year your uncle and grandmother would call to say hello. ”
"How many children does my uncle have?"
"He married two years before me, and like me, he has two sons and a daughter, and I have only met him twice in decades, and I only remember that his eldest grandson seems to have been born in 88, two years older than your sister, and the rest is not clear. ”
Every time Jiang Xuehua called, the two simply asked each other if they were busy at home, whether the children were safe outside, etc., just some superficial greetings.
When Lin Su heard this, he understood that the distance between the two families was far away, and the juniors did not intersect, so it is estimated that one day in the future, when one of the grandmothers or aunts and grandmothers left, the connection between the two families would be completely broken.
As the saying goes, "distant relatives are better than close neighbors", which is probably the case.
Shen Zhishu kept looking at Lin Su, and suddenly raised his hand to touch her eyebrows, "You are still a little similar to your little uncle's eyebrows." ”
Lin Su remembered that they were dragon and phoenix fetuses, and couldn't help but wonder: "Grandma, are you very similar to your uncle and grandfather?"
"When I was a child, someone said that the two of us were carved out of the same mold, and they didn't look that alike, but the eyes and the bridge of the nose were really similar. ”
Lin Su listened to her grandmother's words and felt that she actually missed her uncle and grandfather in her heart. Compared with ordinary sisters and brothers, the relationship between the dragon and phoenix fetus should be closer.
But now that people are gone, there is no point in saying this.
On the other hand, Fu Chenhui is also facing the problem of kinship.
On the second day of the Lunar New Year, the Fu family welcomed three uninvited guests early in the morning.
Fu Chenhui looked at the old man Xin in front of him and Xin Guofan and Li Qing, his eyes were bored and helpless.
These people who are celebrating the New Year do not stop.
Xin Libang specially contacted him after the successful operation, and the old man hinted that he wanted him to return to Xin's house, but he refused.
I didn't expect everyone to meet again so soon.
What's even more troublesome is that Xin Guofan actually came with him, and Fu Chenhui was a little worried about his mother.
Xin Libang saw his grandson standing at the door, and had no intention of welcoming people in, coughed a little embarrassedly, pointed to the person next to him and introduced: "Chenhui, this is your father and." ”
Without waiting for Fu Chenhui to answer, Li Qing sighed with emotion: "It's so big, time is really fast." ”
The impression of Li Qing and Fu Chenhui was not bad, and he pulled the corners of his mouth in response, and while welcoming people into the door, he called Fu Jiaping: "Grandpa, someone is here at home." From beginning to end, he didn't give Xin Guofan a look.
Fu Jiaping, who rushed over when he heard the sound, was also stunned when he saw the three of them, and after coming back to his senses, he was as disgusted as Fu Chenhui, what did he do when he came over for the New Year, which made everyone unhappy.
