"You sit here, I'll go to your aunt's to get some food, I didn't say hello beforehand, and I didn't prepare anything in this house. Liu Amei said, "Your grandfather will be back in a while." ”

"Oh, good. Zeng Fanxing said with his hands hanging under his abdomen, unconsciously looking respectful.

When Liu Amei left, Zeng Fanxing didn't dare to go anywhere else, so he opened the box in the hall, put all the things he bought from them on the table, and then quietly found a small horse to sit under the porch.

The waves roll in the distance, and the salty sea breeze blows away the heat of the day.

This is Zeng Fanxing's very unfamiliar environment and scene, but it is a familiar scenery for his father since he was a child.

"Cute?" Zeng Guangdong came back with a harpoon, and unexpectedly saw someone who shouldn't be here.

Zeng Fanxing got up stiffly, "Grandpa." ”

"You came alone?" Zeng Guangdong asked, "Can you find a place yourself?"

"I met my grandmother at the intersection, and she brought me back. Zeng Fanxing said, "Grandma said to go to my aunt's house to get vegetables." ”

Zeng Guangdong nodded, "Okay, sit down." ”

"Mom, I'll help you when I'm done. Wu Caixia chopped one side of meat, picked two meaty pork ribs, and put half of the chicken in the vegetable basket.

"Just her, can you have two people to cook for her?" Liu Amei said. "That's enough, don't get it, she can't eat much. ”

"Then let Keren and Kejun go over to accompany you?" Wu Caixia asked.

Liu Amei thought for a while, "It's better to come over with your family tomorrow morning when it's okay." The sisters didn't see each other more often, and they were just as strange, saying that they were accompanied, not just sitting. ”

"That's fine. Wu Caixia said, "It's amazing that a cute person can find a place." But she is a year younger than her, and I don't dare to let her go to the sea market alone to visit relatives. ”

"What's there to compare it to. Liu Amei said, don't talk nonsense, and walk with the vegetable basket.

When I went home, I saw Zeng Guangdong chopping fish, "Why did you chop the fish, I went to get the meat dish." ”

"Cute fish eater. Zeng Guangdong said, "You also cook this meat and vegetables, our eldest granddaughter is the first time to come to the house alone, and it is not grand." ”

"As long as you can. Liu Amei said that when she saw the gifts in the hall, "Come on, why are you buying so many things?" ”

"Some are for grandparents, some are for my uncle's family, there are not many things, and I don't know what to buy. Zeng Fanxing said.

"Just get the meaning done. Zeng Guangdong said, "This is the filial piety of your granddaughter, what are you afraid of wasting." ”

On the dining table of the three people, full of five dishes, Zeng Guangdong poured himself wine, "The rice wine brewed in this house is not high, and it still supports people, do you want to have some." ”

Zeng Fanxing raised his glass with both hands and nodded and said yes.

"I drank it with your dad when I was at home. Zeng Guangdong asked, "Your father is not addicted, but he needs someone to accompany him when he drinks, like me, your grandmother has been drinking with me for decades, and she is better at drinking than me." Zeng Guangdong smiled and filled Liu Amei with wine.

Zeng Fanxing nodded, "Dad doesn't usually drink at home, but he will drink a little rice wine when he brings it back from his hometown, because the wine is not intoxicating, and I can also drink a glass." ”

"Would have a drink. Zeng Guangdong said. Speaking of Zeng Zhiyuan, the atmosphere at the table was a little dignified.

"Here, cheers. Zeng Guangdong said, "This is also a small reunion for us." ”

After eating, Liu Amei went to make a bed for Zeng Fanxing, "This is still the bed you bought last time you came, your father said that you like cartoon characters, and specially picked this rabbit pattern." Xu drank wine, Liu Amei didn't have the stiffness and gloom at the beginning and didn't want to speak, and said to Zeng Fanxing in a chattering voice, "Although it's not as good as your family, it's all clean." ”

"I don't know if you're coming, I'll do it today, and tomorrow I'll let my cousin accompany you to the district to buy what you like. ”

"That's good. Zeng Fanxing said that this sheet was still when she graduated from primary school with her father, and stayed at her grandfather's house for a few nights, and then every year she just followed her father in the morning and went back in the evening, without staying overnight.

Zeng Fanxing still remembers seeing this sheet and complaining in his heart at that time, where did the deformed rogue rabbit come from, so ugly. Now looking at the rogue rabbit who is still very ugly on the sheets, I have other feelings in my heart.

I'm afraid this sheet hasn't been used again since she's gone, and I've been carefully putting it away, waiting for her to come again.

"Your grandfather said that he would take you to your father's tomb tomorrow morning to put incense on it, and you should go to bed early and get up early tomorrow. Liu Amei said.

"Good. Zeng Fanxing responded.

Zeng Fanxing thought that she would not be able to sleep, but she slept very soundly this night, and she naturally woke up in the morning and was woken up by the sound of the waves. Zeng Fanxing wore pants that were easy to walk and followed Zeng Guangdong up the mountain.

"Don't blame your grandmother for not coming. Zeng Guangdong opened the way in front of him, and he didn't look back to explain, "Your father's matter hit her too hard, and she has always been unwilling to admit it, so she never came to the grave, thinking that your father has not left yet." ”

"Hmm. Zeng Fanxing nodded with a serious face.

The Western Islands have mountains, the highest mountain is a tomb on the sunny side, the Western Islands have also been on the development of tourism projects, they are not allowed to be buried again, but they can't prepare the people who have divided the grave mountain land before, it is still not so easy to convince cremation, Zeng Guangdong set up a well-dressed tomb for his son next to the position he prepared, a small bag, and buried a person's life.

"Your father is not without children, there is no reason for me, an old father, to erect a monument for him, and when I die and am buried, you will go and erect a monument for your father and put it together. Zeng Guangdong said.

There were no weeds in front of and behind the grave, obviously they were carefully cared for, Zeng Guangdong came out with three dishes in a basket he was carrying. "Your mother made you big meat buns, fish offal noodles and fried fish early in the morning, which are all your favorite foods. ”

"Lovely came to see you. ”

"She found it from Haishi alone, and the granddaughter of our Zeng family didn't lose it. Zeng Guangdong lit a cigarette and stuck it in the soft soil in front of the grave, and said babblingly.

Zeng Fanxing looked at this small grave, and thought that she would definitely cry, but in front of this, she didn't feel like crying at all, but her heart was full of peace.

This place is very good, with his back to the top, facing the sun that rises normally every day, there are birds chirping, there are sound of waves, this is where Dad grew up, it must be very familiar, and Grandpa comes to chat with him from time to time, Dad is very happy to stay here, it must be happier than him in that strange and cold cemetery, and she can't often accompany him.

Dad will be lonely.

"Otherwise, move Daddy's ashes here. Zeng Fanxing thought of it and said, "Dad must be happier here than there." ”

"There is a local saying that fallen leaves return to their roots, and the Western Islands are your father's roots, so it's good to come back. Zeng Guangdong said, "But will your mother agree?"

Zeng Fanxing was silent.

When she returned home from the grave, Liu Amei pointed to the mobile phone on the table, "The phone has been ringing since you went out, and I didn't answer you, it seems that your mother called." ”

"Oh. Zeng Fanxing held the mobile phone, but he didn't answer it in time, but walked to the yard to connect, "Mom." ”

"Zeng Fanxing, where are you now. Xu Liyuan's voice was very cold.

"I, I'm here. "Zeng Fanxing is a little distracted.

"You're not in the Western Islands. Xu Liyuan asked very seriously. "I ask you if you are in the Western Islands. ”

"Yes. Zeng Fanxing glanced at the waves and told the truth.

"You're a good person, Zeng Fanxing, you're still going to deceive people, aren't you going to summer camp? Why are you in the Western Islands?" Xu Liyuan said, "I won't tell you now, you will come back to me immediately." ”

"If you don't come back, I'll let your uncle go to the Western Islands to arrest people, and don't blame me if something happens at that time. Xu Liyuan hung up the phone angrily.

Zeng Fanxing was stunned with her mobile phone, she expected that Xu Liyuan would be unhappy if she knew it one day, but she didn't expect to be so angry, she immediately called back, but Xu Liyuan was puzzled.

Zeng Fanxing could only sigh.

Liu Amei prepared breakfast at the table, and what was placed in front of Zeng Fanxing was a glass of milk and fried eggs, probably because she watched TV and thought that this would be the breakfast that her granddaughter from the city liked, "I don't know what breakfast you like to eat?"

"Grandma, I want to eat big meat buns and fish offal noodles that Dad likes to eat, as well as small fried fish. Zeng Fanxing said.

"You like to eat those, too. Liu Amei said, "I'll get it for you, it's really a father and daughter." ”

After eating, Zeng Fanxing brewed and said repeatedly, "Grandpa, my school has an urgent matter for me to go back, I will go back today, and I will come back when the business is done." ”

Zeng Guangdong was stunned for a moment, and then nodded, "Okay, I'll send you, you don't have to wait for the passenger ship, your uncle's family has a boat." ”

"I'm really sorry, I haven't gone yet, uncle, grandpa will explain it to me at that time, and I'll go to him next time I come back." Zeng Fanxing said.

Liu Amei's action of cleaning up the dishes and chopsticks was a little hard, "What can I do in school during the summer vacation, it's not yet." ”

"Alright. Zeng Guangdong stopped her and said, "Since it's urgent, let's go, don't delay." ”

When she arrived at the dock over there, Zeng Fanxing repeatedly refused Zeng Guangdong to take her to the bus station, "I know the way, don't delay you." ”

Zeng Guangdong also stuffed 500 yuan to Zeng Fanxing, and asked her to buy tickets and buy food on the road, Zeng Fanxing was a little at a loss, "I don't need so much." ”

"Aren't you going to come next time?" Zeng Guangdong said kindly, "Take it." ”

Zeng Guangdong went home, and Liu Amei dropped the duster she was holding in her hand, "What is there something wrong with the school, it's not that her broom star mother wants her to go back, it's just that she strictly guards against letting the stars get close to us." ”

"It's good to know, don't say it. Zeng Guangdong sighed and said, "The only thing that is difficult in the middle is cuteness." ”

"When I think of my eldest son marrying such a daughter-in-law, I really regret it. Liu Amei burst into tears when she said it, "I didn't like it when I said that I found a woman in the city, and I took my chin to see us from the beginning of my marriage, but it was just a broken house in the city, and the shelf was enough, like a daughter who got married." ”

"The eldest son who eats has died all his life, and her granddaughter has also been taught by her not to kiss us. ”

"What kind of sin has been created in our family, if it weren't for her daughter-in-law, how could my son have died in vain at a good age. ”

Zeng Fanxing's rhetoric brewing all the way disappeared after two hard slaps from Xu Liyuan as soon as she entered the door, holding her face and looking at her mother with a shocked face.

"Mom. ”

"Don't call me Mom, I'm not your Mom, I don't have your disobedient and unfilial daughter. ”
