At that moment, all kinds of complex emotions rushed through my mind.

I felt like I had been stabbed in the heart, could it be that I was robbing my cousin of a man? If my uncle knew about this, he would definitely be angry with my grandmother, and then would they still be able to recognize each other?

My body trembled so badly that I laughed dryly: "Let's look for Zhou Yongshuo." ”

I didn't notice until now that my uncle and Zhou Jin had the same surname.

Grandma's eyes were already blurred with tears, she excitedly stepped forward to hold the hand of her "aunt", choked up and asked her: "You are the daughter-in-law of the bolt, I, I am Lu Xiulan, is the bolt at home? I, I want to see him." ”

"Bolt...... Oh, you're looking for Yongshuo?" "Auntie" turned back to the kitchen and shouted, "Meizi, you've got a guest at home." ”

A woman about her age poked her head out of the kitchen and looked at us warily when she saw us: "Who are you?

I glanced at Zhou Jin's mother, and then looked at the woman who came out of the kitchen, nervous to the point of worrying: "Are you Zhou Yongshui's wife?"

Seeing her nod, I breathed a sigh of relief, so Zhou Jin's mother is not my aunt.

Grandma stood timidly outside the door and looked in, her hands tightly tugging at the corners of her clothes, and she was very overwhelmed. I sighed secretly, bowed slightly to my aunt and Zhou Jin's mother, and gently held my grandmother's shoulders from behind to introduce them: "This is my grandmother Lu Xiulan, and Zhou Yongshui is her son." ”

My aunt was immediately stunned, stopped wiping her hands with her apron, and froze in place.

Zhou Jin's mother immediately smiled and let us in, and only after she helped us pour tea familiarly, did my aunt come back to her senses.

But her reaction was completely different from what I imagined, she actually stepped forward to pull her grandmother with a black face, and pushed her out: "Go out and go out, Yongzhuan has no mother, his mother is dead!"

Her expression clearly believed that her grandmother was really her mother-in-law, so wasn't she cursing people with this?

So I quickly stopped her and said angrily, "Auntie, how can you talk like that? I contacted my uncle yesterday, and he knows that we will come here today. My grandmother is old, and she just wants to see her uncle after a morning ride. Can you wait for my uncle to come back?"

Zhou Jin's mother was a very good person, and seeing that the scene was about to get out of control, she quickly pulled her aunt aside and muttered for a while. Then I saw my aunt take out her mobile phone and enter the room, and Zhou Jin's mother entertained us with a smile: "Yongzhuan has to go to work today, and I will come back for dinner at noon, you are patient and wait." ”

She looked at us kindly, and finally pointed to me and Bao Yuanyuan and asked, "Who are these two little girls?"

Grandma introduced us to her in a reserved manner, but her eyes couldn't help but glance at the door.

I have a very bad premonition, although my uncle was not enthusiastic last night, I feel that he should not be so reluctant to see my grandmother, but my aunt's reaction seems to be too strong? Even if my uncle was influenced by the feudal thinking at that time, after so many years, he should be able to understand the matter of a woman remarrying.

Seeing my grandmother so nervous that she held her hands tightly made my heart feel sour.

I have to let my aunt and uncle understand that my grandmother is not coming here to help them take care of their old age, not to drag them down, but purely to see her son who I haven't seen for decades.

So I pretended to be calm and explained to Zhou Jin's mother: "Grandma has always been worried about my uncle, and I haven't seen my uncle look for her in the village for so many years, so I will come to see it today, which can be regarded as fulfilling a wish." ”

It was hot, but I felt like my hands and feet were chilling.

Hey, if only Zhuang Yan were here, he would definitely be able to handle it very well. I clenched my fists and poked my fingernails into the palms of my hands, reminding myself with pain not to be nervous.

When my aunt reappeared, she had already restrained her demeanor just now, but she still kept complaining: "If you want to come, you don't say a word, how can you eat so many mouths with just a few dishes?"

Grandma didn't have the posture of an elder at all, and lowered her head to admit her mistake: "No, we don't want to come over for dinner, I just want to see Zhu'er and cause you trouble." ”

"Auntie, we weren't involved in the matter back then, do you have any opinions, can you wait for your uncle to come back? "I can't see my grandmother so wronged, she just secretly wiped the corners of her eyes a second ago, she must have cried.

My aunt glanced at me angrily, and sneered unabashedly: "Only give birth but don't raise, so selfish is worthy of being a mother? Don't mess with me, I don't have a niece like you." ”

Giving birth to a child, not raising ...... I was suddenly hurt by these four words, and at that moment Lele's face appeared in front of my eyes, I gave birth to her, but I didn't raise her. It was like a sharp arrow had been shot in my heart, and every breath involved the wound, and the pain was so painful that it was dripping blood.

"Meizi, don't say a word. I see you still have vegetables in the refrigerator? Stir-fry two more, you don't eat much on a hot day, how can you not eat enough? I'll go to the restaurant and buy two stir-fried vegetables and come back. After pushing her aunt into the kitchen, she really took her purse and prepared to go out.

I quickly stopped her: "Auntie, don't be so troublesome, grandma just wants to meet her uncle, and we will go out to eat by ourselves after meeting." ”

"The visitor is a guest, our old Zhou family can't be so snub to people. She smiled and patted the back of my hand, and said before leaving, "What is your name Auntie, you should also call me Aunt according to your generation." ”

It's like a thunderbolt suddenly struck in the clear sky, and the whole person is stupid. The sulk that had been spit out before suddenly blocked my heart again, and I felt like I was on a roller coaster, and I was about to be scared out of my heart attack.

After Zhou Jin's mother came back, she said with a smile that her uncle was smoking in the corridor downstairs, and he replied immediately after smoking: "He is a bit addicted to smoking, and Meizi doesn't let him smoke at home, so he has to come up after smoking below every day." ”

I suddenly remembered that the night I first met Zhuang Yan, he also went to the balcony to smoke. I think men may have to smoke to relieve their boredom when they are irritable, and my uncle is probably upset now.

Zhou Jin's mother is as likable as Zhou Jin, and when I saw her face, I felt that I was talking to Zhou Jin, and my heart was so sour: "Auntie...... Auntie, you're your uncle's ......."

"I'm his sister-in-law, and my husband is his brother. He grew up in my in-laws' house, not much different from my husband and brother. ”

It turns out that after my grandmother remarried, my uncle became an orphan, so my uncle's uncle took him home and raised him. I don't know the specific situation, it depends on what my grandmother and uncle say.

We waited for nearly half an hour and didn't see my uncle come back, so I was in a hurry, so I quickly asked where my uncle was, and then I went down to look for him in a hurry. Grandma originally wanted to follow, but I quickly threw a look at Bao Yuanyuan, and she immediately nodded to help me stabilize my grandmother.

I want to talk to my uncle first, I don't want him to talk badly in front of my grandmother. Maybe I'm too selfish, I don't believe that such a kind person as my grandmother would really abandon this son, there must have been some hardships back then.

There is a garbage room in the corner of the residential building, and a thin man squats next to the garbage room and smokes a cigarette, and a lot of cigarette butts have been thrown at the door of the garbage room.

I hesitated and walked over and shouted, "Uncle?"

The man looked up at me suddenly, and then subconsciously looked behind me twice: "Are you Shen Xi?"

He called my grandmother "she", how reluctant he was to call her mother? My internal organs were twisted together, and my nose began to sour.

"Uncle, go up. Grandma just wants to come and see you, after all, she has been hanging on for a lifetime. I didn't send her here to trouble you, I just want you to recognize each other. Grandma had major surgery before, to be realistic, she may not live for many years, if you have any misunderstandings back then, it is good to explain it in person. ”

The uncle sighed several times in a row, and finally threw the cigarette butt in his hand on the ground and crushed it with his shoes: "After so many years of hatred, one or two sentences are not clear." ”

I asked what had happened, but he shook his head and said nothing.

I saw that his eyes were sunken and there were thick dark circles under his eyes, and I knew that he had not had an easy time these years: "Uncle, grandma is your own mother after all, and her blood is thicker than water, what hatred can't be solved? Go up and eat, my aunt said that you still have to go to work in the afternoon." ”

He replied with a sad face and took the lead in entering the residential building.

I was always afraid that something earth-shattering would happen to him when he met his grandmother, but as soon as he entered the door, my grandmother immediately stood up with a trembling mouth, stared at him with a trembling mouth, and didn't say a word, just lowered her head and kept wiping her tears. The uncle opened his mouth as if to say something, but his feet seemed to be glued, and he paused motionless for a long time. In the end, it was his aunt who urged him impatiently, and then he said in a deep voice: "Well, eat." ”

My uncle didn't go to work in the afternoon, saying that he had taken a leave of absence. Zhou Jin's mother saw that neither of them was talking to each other, so she pushed the two of them to the guest bedroom, and the door was slightly open.

I couldn't hear them talking, so I couldn't tell you how anxious I was.

Zhou Jin's mother kept muttering in her aunt's ear, as if to persuade her not to be too hostile. Before dark, Zhou Jin's mother enthusiastically said to me and Bao Yuanyuan, "You won't leave until tomorrow, right? ”

My heart pounded violently like a high jump, is it to let us sleep in Zhou Jin's ......room? My eyelids suddenly shook a few times uneasily, I looked at the crack in the door of the guest bedroom, and quickly shook my head: "Auntie, I want to accompany my grandmother, she is timid and will be afraid in the face of an unfamiliar environment." ”

Zhou Jin's mother pressed her chin inward to her chest and glared at me with a frown. She waited for her aunt to enter the room, and hurried into my ear and said: "Their mother and son have the heart to let them solve it by themselves, you are not around to take care of it, Yongzhuan will definitely take the initiative to take care of the elderly, isn't this better than you fooling around next to you?"

Do you really want to go to Zhou Jin's room to live? How many memories of Zhuang Yan are hidden in her room?
