This time he returned to his hometown to visit relatives, Huo Yaowen had already written to the third master, so as soon as the group returned to the village, they saw their grandfather, grandmother, uncle, cousin, cousin and other relatives and friends gathered together.

After more than 20 years of separation, my relatives have not seen each other for many years, and it is inevitable to cry when I complain about the pain of parting.

People of Huo Yaowen's generation basically just greet politely, whether it is Huo Yaocheng or Huo Yaozu, they are all polite.

But grandma, father, grandfather and other elders are much more excited, in addition to before homesickness, more they were born here, grew up here, and the memories of their youth are here.

When Huo's mother saw her grandfather and grandmother, she hugged the second elder and cried, and at the same time hugged Xiaobao and Xiaohu and smiled at the two old men, saying that this was their great-grandson and great-granddaughter.

Grandpa looked at the two children in Huo's mother's arms excitedly, and laughed happily: "Okay, okay, I didn't expect my two great-grandsons and great-granddaughters to be so old." ”

"Our little treasure is so beautiful, just like what comes out of a foreign painting. ”

Grandma looked at Xiaobao with a delicate face, like a child in a foreign painting in the past, and happily wanted to touch her face, but just stretched out her hand, and felt that her rough hand would sting the child's tender skin, and she was embarrassed to take it back.

When Huo's mother saw this scene, her heart tingled, and she hurriedly grabbed her grandmother's hand and said, "Mom, look at Xiaobao more." ”

"Good, good. "It's okay, but grandma still seems to be a little restrained.

Seeing this, Huo's mother had no choice but to say to Xiaobao in her arms: "Xiaobao, this is grandma's mother, your name is grandmother." ”

Xiaobao glanced at her grandmother, and then at her grandmother in front of her, although she didn't understand what her grandmother meant, and she didn't know the old man in front of her, she still smiled and shouted sweetly "great-grandmother"

"Good, little treasure. Grandma also laughed happily when she saw the child calling herself.

Dozens of people at the entrance of the village talked about the old for a while, attracting other families in the village, they surrounded layer after layer, and many of them of the older generation knew grandma and grandfather, and it was inevitable that they would have another greeting.

More people are still curious about the return of Huo Yaowen and the others this time, especially when they see a foreign woman, this is even more surprised, there are hundreds of families in the village, and they dare not say that all of them have never seen foreigners, but at least nine out of ten people have never seen them.

Naturally, he was curious about the foreign wife brought by Huo Yaowen.

It wasn't until half an hour later that everyone reacted, smiled and waved goodbye to the villagers, and walked towards the third master's house.

Not long after arriving at the third master's house, after a short rest, Grandma prepared to go to the grave of her grandfather Huo Zongxiong to burn incense.

A large family walked towards the top of the mountain.

Looking at the well-repaired cemetery, the yellowed and blackened photo of grandpa when he was young on the tombstone, Grandma silently shed tears while touching the stone tablet she had personally found someone to carve.

After lighting the yellow paper and candles, Huo Chengcai also took his wife, son, daughter, daughter-in-law, grandson, and granddaughter to kneel down in front of Huo Zongxiong's tombstone.

"Father, the unfilial son Huo Chengcai is back, for so many years, the son has not been able to worship you during the New Year's holidays, it is really in vain to be a son of man, father, the son is not filial......"

Huo Chengcai cried as he spoke, crying tears and snot, and with true feelings, he also infected the people around him.

Seeing that his father and grandmother were crying, even though Huo Yaowen had a good ability to mediate in his heart, he was still infected by the atmosphere and his eyes were red.

The younger sister Huo Tingting doesn't have such a good mentality, the consistent little daughter mentality, at a glance at her father and grandmother who have never cried in front of her and others, crying in front of her grandfather's grave at this time, she is also sad from the heart, and she cried out.

When she was born, her grandfather had been killed in battle for many years, and it stands to reason that she didn't have much emotion, but the biggest difference between humans and animals is that they can feel sad because of the pain of others.

After more than half an hour, Grandma seemed to have endless words to tell her grandfather who was sleeping in the cemetery, Huo Yaowen was afraid that her old man would be broken due to excessive grief, so she also stepped forward and comforted: "Grandma, let's go back, it's the same to come to see grandpa tomorrow." ”

Huo Chengcai, who was in a much more stable mood at this time, also took a step forward and persuaded Grandma: "Mom, what Yaowen said is good, the days are still long, if you have anything to say to your father, it will be the same if we come again tomorrow, you see that it is not too early this day, Xiaobao and Xiaohu have not had dinner yet." ”

Grandma turned her head, looked at Xiaobao and Xiaohu who were dozing in Anna and Tingting's arms with red and swollen eyes, and squeezed out a little smile and said, "Okay, then we'll come back tomorrow." ”

Saying that, Grandma reluctantly stood up, looked at the photo of Huo Zongxiong on the tombstone, and muttered to herself: "Ah Xiong, we will come to see you again tomorrow." ”

Huo Yaowen hurriedly stepped forward to support her old man, afraid that she would be too sad just now and would not be able to stand on her feet and stumble on this mountain.

......

At five o'clock in the evening, the sun was setting, and the last afterglow refused to leave.

The group went back to the third master's house, and they greeted relatives and friends in the living room, telling about the situation of each family after more than 20 years of separation.

Not long after, Huo Yaocheng, Huo Yaoguang, Huo Huiying, Li Zhi and other juniors brought all kinds of meat and meat dishes that are not common on weekdays from the kitchen to the table, and the fragrance was fragrant for a while, filling the entire hall. Some of the younger children were swallowing their saliva at this moment, and their eyes were squinting at the large wooden tables in the hall.

Although the winter in Guangzhou is not very cold, it can still be a little cold at night. So when the third master saw that the dishes were almost there, he also smiled and hurriedly beckoned his grandfather, grandparents, grandmothers, uncles, cousins, uncles and others to the table to eat.

Today, whether it is Huo Yaowen and his entourage who have returned to their hometown, or their grandparents, uncles and other mainland relatives who have come to visit them, the number of people is a bit seriously exceeded, and the three tables that were originally prepared are obviously not enough at the moment. In addition, Zhongshan is very particular about the seats of the banquet, and there is a process for who sits in the east and who sits in the west, and it took a while to arrange everyone's seats.

Huo Yaowen didn't want to eat at the table, but the third grandfather insisted that he go to the table, and the eldest grandfather said that Huo Yaowen was the pillar of Yaozi's generation, and he had already started a family, so it was natural that he should go to the table to eat.

He had no choice but to sit down at the main table and drink with the third master, grandfather, uncle, and fourth uncle.

And Anna took Xiaobao and Xiaohu and sat next to the younger generation with Tingting.

For this foreign sister-in-law, whether it is Huo Yaocheng or Huo Huiying, they are very curious, and they are on the table, chattering and asking questions, to which Anna also responded with a smile.

Eat until six or seven o'clock in the evening, until the wine has passed three rounds, and the dishes have passed five flavors.

Grandma suddenly remembered the gifts she had brought.

After asking Huo Yaowen, I learned that the things had been moved back, but not all of them, and there were still many things on the truck, and there were drivers and bodyguards watching.

"Then I'll send it tomorrow. ”

Grandma thought about it, it was dark this day, so it was better to save it for tomorrow.

......

Early the next morning.

When everyone got up, Grandma called them all to the living room, which was already full of boxes and boxes of gifts and souvenirs brought from Hong Kong.

These were all borrowed by the bodyguards in the village in the morning and pulled back from the van half a kilometer away.

Grandma first asked Huo Chengcai to take the box full of gold and silver jewelry, and as soon as she opened it, dozens of small red boxes inside immediately attracted the attention of the people in the house.

"This ......"

The third grandfather didn't know the meaning of Grandma's move, and was just about to persuade him not to give any gifts, but he heard the eldest grandfather say: "Third brother, these are all a little heart, we haven't come back for so many years, and it's all up to you to support you at home." Besides, it's been more than 20 years, and it's the first time I've met Yaocheng and them, just give some gifts, and you don't care about the third child. ”

The third master knew from Huo Yaowen's mouth that they were living very wealthy in Hong Kong the year before last, and when he saw a box of gold and silver jewelry, and boxes of goods in the hall and firewood room, he naturally understood that this thing was not worth mentioning to the eldest brother and sister-in-law, so after thinking about it, he didn't say anything more.

Grandma picked up the three red boxes and said to the third uncle and three aunts: "Jackie Chan, Cuihua, Er Niang hasn't seen you for so many years, these three sets of jewelry are a little bit of Er Niang's heart, you take it, no matter whether Hui Ying marries or Yao Cheng gets married in the future, it will be regarded as a dowry and bride price." ”

The third uncle glanced at his father and saw that he didn't say anything, as if he agreed, but he was embarrassed to step forward and take it, so he pushed the third aunt next to him and motioned for her to get it.

The third aunt was also a little embarrassed, and it wasn't until Grandma personally put the three boxes in her hand that she accepted them half-pushed.

Before coming back to visit relatives, Grandma had already learned about the situation of relatives in her hometown from Huo Yaowen's mouth, each man was a mechanical watch, and the woman was a three-piece set of gold jewelry, rings, earrings and necklaces.

Not only the Huo family, but also grandfather and uncle also have a watch and a three-piece set of gold jewelry.

At first, everyone didn't know what was in the red box, but when some juniors opened it curiously and found that it was a three-piece set of gold jewelry and a watch that looked very expensive, they couldn't help but exclaim.

Everyone was embarrassed to accept the gift when they saw that it was so valuable, but the elders gave it, and the younger generations naturally didn't dare to want it, and they all wanted it in their hearts. The third master and grandfather were a little embarrassed by the older generation, but under the persuasion of grandma, uncle and grandfather, they also nodded and accepted it.
