Chapter 37: Gathering (7)
At noon in summer, the sun is blazing. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoThe sun scorched the earth like a huge ball of fire, and most of the leaves that were sensitive to heat drooped down and looked listless.
The so-called tree sandwich wind road, pedestrians are sparse at noon. At this time, the people in the village are all nested at home, taking a cool nap, and only a few dogs are wandering leisurely outside.
The clear water of the river is like a mirror, and the green willow trees are reflected in it, and the branches dance in the wind, like a beautiful girl in a green dress, dancing by the river.
Under the blue sky, among the green lotus leaves, the pink, white, and red lotus flowers, red and white, white like jade, quietly open in the sun, graceful and colorful, blooming with beautiful and refined beauty, some of them are budding to be released, like a slim girl. If you look closely, there are still a few dark green lotus canopies among the lotus leaves, waiting for people to pick them.
Here, Gu Sisi is talking and laughing with her mother. Chen Xinling will talk about Gu Sisi's childhood from time to time, how well-behaved and obedient she was, and how naughty An Ge'er was when she was a child.
While the mother and daughter were talking, Gu Guoren and Gu Xinghua had already entered the house.
After Gu Desheng woke up from a nap, he watched An Ge'er walk out of the house, and went back to the hall to drink tea. As soon as I drank a cup of tea, I saw the second son and the eldest grandson coming over with large bags and small bags.
"Stinky boy, you still know how to come back, and you don't know how to say when you leave, so you don't have to worry about your father and your nurse!" Gu Desheng saw his eldest grandson Hua Ge'er, and said in a slightly angry voice, and turned his head to look at his son, "Guoren, quick, put down the things first, sit and rest, drink saliva first, your daughter-in-law is also back today, and she is behind." Brother Hua has caused you a lot of trouble!" said he went to pour water for his son and grandson.
"Dad, don't be busy, you sit, I'll come. Brother Hua'er, this kid, it's okay, he scared me when he first arrived, but he was very obedient in the back, and I was afraid that my mother would worry, so I sent him back if I didn't just rest for a few days. ”
Gu Guoren looked at Brother Hua'er, "Quick, hurry up and admit your mistake to your grandfather, see that your grandfather is in a hurry." "Grandpa, don't be angry, it's all Huazi's fault, I shouldn't have run away from home without saying a word, I'm sorry to make you worry and anxious, I'm sorry......" Gu Xinghua lowered his head, and he didn't dare to look at his grandfather in shame.
Gu Desheng looked at the thin grandson in front of him, and sighed silently, this child, he has only been out for a few days and has lost weight like this, he has no intention of blaming his son, the grandson is probably tossed by himself.
Gu Desheng still looked at Brother Hua, and said in a heavy voice: "Brother Hua, grandpa knows that you are also old and have your own ideas and ideas. But you can't run away from home anymore, it's fortunate that you went to your second uncle, if not, where something happened on the way, the family doesn't know. You want your grandfather to send a white-haired man to a black-haired man! Wait for your grandmother to come back and admit your mistake. Your father and he, alas, when your father comes back, your father and son will talk about it, how can this father and son have an overnight feud?
Gu Xinghua didn't want his grandfather to worry in his heart, but it was difficult to cross the hurdle in his heart. After listening to his grandfather's words, he still nodded, as for his father, let's wait for someone to come back......
The three of them talked, and Goodson asked his son and grandson to go back to wash and rest.
Gu Xinghua went back to his room in the middle courtyard, there was a layer of dust in the house, looking at this familiar room, Gu Xinghua sighed, took a change of clothes, and planned to rinse it briefly.
Gu Guoren carried the bag back to the backyard, and as soon as he entered the yard, he heard his daughter's laughter, what did the mother and daughter say, so happy. So, without making a sound, he quietly entered the house.
As soon as I entered the room, I saw the mother and daughter sitting on the kang, talking and laughing and making things. Just as he was about to speak, he saw his daughter looking at him and excitedly shouted, "Wow, Dad, why are you back......" As he spoke, Gu Sisi sighed, stood up from the kang and was about to go down.
Chen Xinling heard her daughter's happy voice, and when she raised her head, she saw her daughter rushing into her husband's arms like a gust of wind.
Chen Xinling was also infected by her daughter's laughter, and looked at it with a smile, but she still interrupted the play of the father and daughter, and said with concern to the father and daughter in front of her: "Sisi, come down, look at your father's tiredness." Guoren, don't turn around, Sisi is too big, it's not heavy, you're not tired, be careful of your waist!"
Gu Guoren looked at his gentle wife, obediently listened to his wife's words, and put his daughter firmly on the ground, then put all the bags away, and finished washing and tidying up.
Gu Sisi looked at his parents, his eyes unblinking. My mother was wearing a bat shirt with open white magnolia flowers on a blue background, a thin hem, a pair of white bell bottoms, and her hair was naturally long curls, with a simple braid, hanging to the side, looking casual and fashionable. Dad is not particular about clothes, he wears a simple gray short-sleeved shirt and a pair of black sweatpants, but Dad has a height and looks good.
I have to say that now in Gu Sisi's eyes, no matter what the parents wear, it doesn't matter, the important thing is that the family can be together.
Chen Xinling helped her husband sort out her luggage, as usual, there were few clothes, most of them were some mountain goods, but these things were basically available at home, just wanted to ask her husband, I heard her husband say, most of them were sent by men, and they were not used on the stone steps, so it was better to take them home, and they didn't need to spend money to buy them, Chen Xinling also nodded, like their current situation, they can't use one point as two points. Sorting out everything that was going to be given to his parents, Gu Guoren went to wash.
Gu Sisi knew that her parents still had something to say, so she went back to her room very interestingly, planning to do her homework, fortunately she had the homework to write down with notes, or she didn't have to do anything, and she had to go to Mu Yingying to ask, in other words, she didn't seem to have seen the little girl for a long time, and she didn't know if she was still round.
Gu Sisi looked at the Chinese and math homework in front of him, took a deep breath, and began to write from the first page, but his own words were already very mature, and he had to imitate his own writing when he was a child, and he was really tired.
Over there, Chen Xinling waited for her husband to finish washing, and then she talked to her husband, only to know that Hua Ge'er went to her husband's place recently, she was still strange, why didn't she see the child, and thought she was going to her sister-in-law with her mother-in-law.
Chen Xinling learned about Brother Hua from her husband, and after listening to it, it also made Chen Xinling feel uncomfortable, the deceased sister-in-law, Chen Xinling was not familiar with it, she only knew that the sister-in-law was a poor person, looking at Brother Hua, it was inevitable that she would take care of it more. I originally wanted to tell my husband about the separation, but it was estimated that it would not work, so I had to endure and wait for the opportunity.
Gu Xinghua scrubbed his room before lying on the bed, listless. Goodson was drinking tea in the hall, his fingers tapping on the table from time to time, not knowing what he was thinking.
Chen Xinling looked at the time, asked her husband to go to bed to lie down, and prepared to cook lunch by herself, but she couldn't let the old man wait. Gu Guoren was really tired at this time, so he told his wife to sleep for a while, and he would go to help cook later, Chen Xinling scolded with a smile, you are doing a disservice! The husband and wife said a few more words, and then one went to cook, and the other went to squint for a while.
Chen Xinling took the things she wanted to give to her in-laws to the hall by the way, and as soon as she passed, she saw her father-in-law there and didn't know what to think. "Dad, this is what Guoren and I prepared for you and your mother, you go back and put it away. Whatever you want for lunch, I'll do it. ”
"Guoren's daughter-in-law, if you have a heart, your father will take it away when she turns around. You two don't want to buy these in the future, Brother An'er and Siwa'er are also older, and there will be more places to use money in the future. I told your mother-in-law that you shouldn't give so much money in the future, you two will save for the two babies. Gu Desheng looked at the diligent second daughter-in-law and said, I didn't want to say so much, but it can be seen that the two grandsons are becoming more sensible day by day, and the old woman is like that, I can't bear it.
Chen Xinling knows in her heart that her mother-in-law has the final say on everything in the family, but she can't help but appreciate her father-in-law's kindness. At this time, Chen Xinling didn't know that this family was actually still an old man!
