Chapter 360: Relief
Tao Xueming came back from the airport, and when he got home, it was already seven or eight o'clock in the evening.
He stirred a cucumber, made some cold dishes, and then asked Xiang Yuhang to come over and drink two cups.
Half an hour later, Xiang Yuhang came with a beer, and the two sat down at the table and drank it.
When chatting happily, Tao Xueming said: "Bao Zhipeng is gone and has gone abroad." ”
Xiang Yuhang's hand holding chopsticks was stunned, and he quickly ate again, as if he hadn't heard anything.
However, Tao Xueming saw Xiang Yuhang drink three glasses of beer in a row, and then said in a calm voice: "Let's go, it's not that I won't come back." ”
"When he leaves, let me say sorry to you for him, he realizes his mistake. ”
Tao Xueming said.
Xiang Yuhang didn't react after hearing this, and said: "As long as you can realize your mistake, he is young and ignorant......
Tao Xueming observed Xiang Yuhang's reaction, and saw that the other party had no joy or sorrow, so he didn't say anything.
It's just that later, Xiang Yuhang obviously drank more than him, drank the beer, and put on the liquor.
Xiang Yuhang alone killed half a bottle of liquor, and after more than two hours, he was drunk and drunk.
Lying on the ground, Tao Xueming couldn't pick people up.
Xiang Yuhang lay on the ground and rolled around, drunk and crazy, and began to babble nonsense.
Then he stood up and roared loudly out the window, as if to vent his anger.
After more than an hour, Xiang Yuhang collapsed on the sofa and fell asleep.
I slept until the afternoon of the next day.
Xiang Yuhang opened his eyes and woke up, and saw rice porridge and steamed buns on the table, and Tao Xueming was reading.
"Wake up, eat something. ”
Xiang Yuhang rubbed his head, how long had he been asleep, he was drunk last night, and he didn't know anything.
"I didn't say anything last night?" he asked.
"It's okay, it's just that you want to drink the water in the toilet, I didn't stop you. ”
Tao Xueming said with a smile.
"My God......" Xiang Yuhang's face suddenly turned green, and he immediately ran into the toilet to rinse his mouth.
Tao Xueming laughed, deceitful, he actually believed it.
Knock knock, someone smashed the door outside, Tao Xueming went to open the door, a postman.
It's a letter.
Tao Xueming opened the envelope and looked at it, it was actually sent by his grandfather.
It was a belated letter of apology, handwritten about a thousand words or so.
Tao Xueming read it word by word, and after understanding the above content, he sighed in his heart.
The old man may be old, has figured out a lot of things, and knows that he has made some mistakes in the past.
also apologized very sincerely, hoping that he could forgive, and then recognize his ancestors and let him go back.
Tao Xueming put down the letter and went back, how to go back, such a big family, he was like a stranger when he passed.
Mom's death was caused by my grandfather, why didn't I expect it to be today when I did those things.
If you choose to forgive, how can you be worthy of your mother's spirit in the sky.
This is, the door opened, and Dad opened the door and came in.
"Dad, why are you here. ”
"Your mother fried the glutinous rice for you, bring you some. ”
Tao Xueming hurriedly stretched out his hand to catch it, and then asked his father to sit down, thinking that since the person came, it would be good to talk about the content of the letter.
He briefly summarized the above things in the letter.
Tao Xueming thought that Dad would definitely not forgive, after all, such a big feud would definitely not be easily let go.
However, what he didn't expect was that after listening to it, his father was silent for less than five seconds, and then said, "If you can put it down, then go and see it." ”
"After all, it's your grandfather, and you also have one more relative. ”
"Dad, have you forgiven them?"
Tao Xueming asked in astonishment.
Dad smiled and said, "If we don't forgive, we will live in pain for the rest of our lives, and they will feel guilty for the rest of our lives." ”
"Moreover, your mother has been gone for so many years, maybe she has long since let go, we just don't know. ”
"A few days ago, your mother gave me a dream and asked me to go and see her, but I didn't even go to her grave to take a look. ”
Tao Xueming was stunned for a few minutes, he didn't expect his father to be so generous, and he actually chose to forgive.
And what about him, can he forgive?
Tao Xueming pondered to himself.
At this time, Xiang Yuhang packed up, greeted his father with a smile, and when he saw the glutinous rice, he picked it up and ate it.
"In the past two days, let's go and take you to see Mom's grave. ”
Tao Xueming said.
"Cheng, then I'll go back and say it, and call me when I leave. ”
"I'll go back and play chess first. Dad happily got up and left.
"Brother Tao Zi, what's the situation, where are you going?"
Ask Yuhang.
"Go see my mom. Tao Xueming said: "By the way, I am recognizing a relative or something, and I will also have a grandfather in the future." ”
Xiang Yuhang was stunned, where did a grandfather come from?
Could it be that you are talking about relatives on the matrilineal side?
"When you're full, it's time to work, hurry up and eat. ”
Tao Xueming picked up the glutinous rice and ate one, and then went to the store.
Two days later, Tao Xueming took his father and took the train to Beijing.
After a day and a night, the train arrived.
It's the first time Dad has gone far away, and he's still in such a big city, and when he walks here, you can feel the uneasiness that exudes from him.
Tao Xueming did not go to the house, but took the handle and went directly to the cemetery.
When they arrived at the cemetery, they happened to encounter another rainy day, and it seemed that God was adding to the sad atmosphere for them.
When I came to my mother, my father talked to himself in his hometown, and then leaned against the stone tablet and talked about the past.
Tao Xueming walked to the side and waited quietly.
"Hey, who are you, why are you here with my cousin. ”
A man in his twenties shouted.
Tao Xueming glanced at the other party, and then said, "This is my mother." ”
"What nonsense, that's my cousin, how can it be your mother, you ......"
As the man was talking, his tone suddenly paused, and his eyes slowly widened and looked at Tao Xueming: "You, you are my cousin's son, then aren't you my nephew......"
Tao Xueming didn't know who this person was, but it should be a relative of his grandfather's family.
At this time, a few people walked in outside the cemetery, and the man immediately ran back.
"What, Xiaoyun's son is here?"
"Go check it out. ”
These relatives immediately came over, and after seeing Tao Xueming, their first reaction was to look up and down.
"Are you my nephew?" said the woman with a look of surprise.
Tao Xueming didn't speak, but it should have been.
"Come on, come and show us, we've all grown so big. ”
Several elders immediately came over with smiling faces, touching Tao Xueming up and down, as if they were looking at aliens.
"Oh, this must be my uncle, a talent. ”
Dad stood up, embarrassed and a little nervous on his face.
"Dad, let's go. ”
Tao Xueming took his father out, and these relatives immediately stopped him: "Come here, go and sit at home, the old man misses you." ”
"No, we have time to go on our own. ”
Tao Xueming left here directly with his father.
"This kid is not sensible at all, and he doesn't call people when he sees his elders. ”
"What kind of education can a child from the countryside have, hurry back and tell the old man. ”
Tao Xueming walked away and couldn't hear the discussion of those people, but he could guess what he would say in his heart.
found a hotel and stayed first, Tao Xueming believed that his grandfather would definitely send someone to pick him up after he knew he was coming.
It's okay during the day, Tao Xueming took his dad to go around the neighborhood, in a big city, his dad had never been here, and he was full of curiosity about everything.
It was a day late and returned to the hotel in the evening.
Not long after the two returned, there was a knock on the door.
Tao Xueming opened the door, and there was a man and a woman standing at the door.
"Hello, you are Tao Xueming, I am your cousin. ”
"I'm your cousin. ”
The two said, "The old man wants to see you, can you come with us?"
"It's so late, I'll go back tomorrow. Tao Xueming refused.
Both of them were stunned for a moment, the old man wanted to see someone, and he had never encountered something to wait for, this was really the first time he had encountered it.
"Please go back, we're going to rest. ”
Tao Xueming closed the door, and the two of them glanced at each other, thinking that this kid didn't know how to do it, and even the old man didn't dare to refuse.
If you go back, the old man will be very angry.
"Dad, go to bed early, we'll go back tomorrow morning, and take care of our spirits first. ”
Tao Xueming laughed.
