Chapter 18: Father's Face Is Gloomy (2)
"Not yet, the uncle asked me to send these things back first and then go to the second uncle's house!" Tian Limai agreed.
"Your uncle is really thoughtful about many things, your uncle is afraid that your second uncle and your second uncle will have ideas after seeing these things, in fact, your second uncle will not have any ideas, your second uncle will have it, and she will not say it!" Mother Yang Meizhen looked out of the window again while speaking, and saw that it was about to get dark, and then said to Tian Limai: "Mai'er, after you return the Sealand back basket to you, you will go to your second uncle's house immediately, this day is going to be black and embered, why hasn't your father come back, after you go to your second uncle's house, and your sister will pick up your father!"
Tian Limai promised to go to the uncle's house with the Sealand back basket, and after he returned the Sealand back basket to the uncle's house, he went directly to the second uncle's house, and saw the second uncle and the second uncle, Tian Limai said: "Second uncle, second uncle, tomorrow our family will kill the New Year's pig, my parents asked me to invite you to come over tomorrow to eat 'soup', and ask the second uncle to go over a little earlier to help catch the pig!"
"Tian Limai, grandpa, grandma and your uncle's family, have you invited it?" asked the second uncle, Tian Shuizhuang.
"Go, second uncle!" Tian Limai replied truthfully.
At this time, the second aunt glanced at the second uncle Tian Shuizhuang and asked, "Tian Limai, did your grandfather and grandmother give you something?"
"This, second aunt-" Tian Limai hesitated and couldn't answer the second aunt's words, saying that if you have to give it, the second aunt will definitely ask what she is giving, and if she doesn't give it, it's lying again!
"I said that you are a right guest, what kind of trouble is it, if you have something for you, you will give it, and no one will blame you if you don't have anything to give!" Or the second uncle was on the side to relieve Tian Limai!
"Just your old shell, you're still a man!" The second uncle glanced at the second uncle Tian Shuizhuang as she spoke, and said to Tian Limai: "Tian Limai, wait a minute!" After speaking, the second afraid mother walked into a room in the inner room.
"Tian Limai, you are your own nephew's son, you don't blame your second aunt's temper, I don't like your second aunt's temper, I don't know how many times I persuaded her to change it, she always doesn't listen, everything has to be lived in her mind three or four times, I don't know if I'm tired or not?" Second Uncle Tian Shuizhuang glanced at the middle room, turned his head and continued: "Tian Limai, our family will come over tomorrow, I will come early to help catch pigs!"
At this time, the second uncle came out of the inner room, she carried a small woven bag, and said to Tian Limai with a smile: "Tian Limai, there are no good things in the second uncle's house, there are a few peanuts that we planted, take some back to eat, and a few oranges, which were bought by your second uncle in the last period, and a few more to be sent to your grandfather and grandmother!"
"Second uncle, second uncle, I don't want it, you keep it for yourself, my brother may be coming back soon from working outside, and my sister Tian Yimei wants to eat, besides, you bought the orange with money!" Tian Limai said.
The second uncle's family of four people, in addition to the second uncle Tian Shuizhuang and the second uncle, there is also an elder brother Tian Liyun and younger sister Tian Yimei. Brother Tian Liyun works outside, although he doesn't earn much money, but he has to go home every year for the New Year, and he also brings a little gift to each family, no matter what the small gift is worth three or five yuan!
Tian Limai wanted to turn around and leave after saying that, but the second uncle Tian Shuizhuang was a little unhappy: "Tian Limai, the second uncle will give you something!"
"Tian Limai, don't you dislike the second aunt for giving less things, don't you?" The second aunt was also a little unhappy, and what she said was a little harsh!
"Second uncle, second uncle, you don't know my father's temper, I really can't take your things!" Tian Limai previously accepted the things handed by his grandfather, grandmother and uncle, and his aunt, although his mother Yang Meizhen did not blame, but there was also some obvious blame in his tone, and Tian Limai still had to wait for the punishment of his father Tian Hezhuang in the evening, and the things handed by the second uncle and the second uncle just now could no longer be accepted!
Tian Limai ignored the obstruction of the second uncle and the second uncle, and trotted all the way home without accepting the second uncle's things.
The second uncle, Tian Shuizhuang, saw that Tian Limai had run away, and took the small woven bag from the second uncle's hand and picked up Tian Limai in the back, shouting while pulling in the back: "Tian Limai, you fine baby, you don't want the things given by the second uncle?!" Later, the second uncle Tian Shuizhuang saw that the distance was far away, so he stopped shouting, but sent the things to Tian Limai's house!
Mother Yang Meizhen saw that the second uncle Tian Shuizhuang sent what Tian Limai did not pick up, she took the woven bag from the second uncle Tian Shuizhuang and said: "The second uncle of the fine baby, the fine baby is not sensible, don't be surprised!" Then the mother turned her head and reproached Tian Limai and said: "Mai'er, the second uncle and the second uncle give things, why don't you pick them up, they are your second uncle and second mother!"
"Mom, didn't you say that Dad was to blame? That's why he didn't dare to take it!" Tian Limai didn't make a sound next to her, but her sister Tian Liyu couldn't help but say after listening to her mother Yang Meizhen's words.
"It's all up to your father, and no one dares to deal with this family!" After her mother Yang Meizhen finished speaking, she beckoned Erbotian Shuizhuang to sit down and drink tea!
Erbotian Shuizhuang sat down, his mother Yang Meizhen poured tea for Erbotian Shuizhuang to drink, Erbotian Shuizhuang said some gossip while drinking tea, mainly some trivial things about killing the New Year's pig tomorrow morning, and the mother said: "The second uncle of the fine baby, as well as his second uncle and Tian Yimei, tomorrow your family please come over early, it is rare to invite your whole family to come to the house for dinner all year round, and this time you will kill the New Year's pig!"
"I'm coming over, his mother!" Second Uncle Tian Shuizhuang glanced left and right, then looked out the window, and then asked: "His mother, where is Tian Limai's father? Why hasn't he come back yet?"
"Xiwa, his second uncle, Xiwa's father went to Jinziao, I don't know what's going on, I haven't come back so late, I'm about to call Tian Limai and his sister Tian Liyu to pick up his dad on the way!" Mother Yang Meizhen said.
When the second uncle Tian Shuizhuang heard that Tian Limai's brothers and sisters were going to pick up their father Tian Hezhuang, they put down the teacup and stood up and said goodbye: "His mother, I'm also leaving, I'll come early tomorrow morning to help catch pigs!"
"Second uncle, sit down for a while, and then go back after dinner!" said her mother, Yang Meizhen.
"His mother, he has something to do, so he won't eat!" Erbotian Shuizhuang left after speaking!
Mother Yang Meizhen sent Erbotian Shuizhuang to the door, and after Erbotian Shuizhuang left, her mother Yang Meizhen said: "Mai'er, Yu'er, you brothers and sisters go and pick up your father, take a flashlight, and when it gets dark, use lighting on the road!"
Tian Limai thought that the second uncle Tian Shuizhuang sent something to this, and her mother Yang Meizhen would blame herself for a few words, but her mother Yang Meizhen didn't say anything, Tian Limai listened to her mother's words, and hurriedly went out with her sister with a flashlight!
Jin Ziao is on the flat dam under the thick cliff mountain, starting from Shangsitai, there are rugged downhill mountain roads along the way, fortunately, Tian Limai and his sister Tian Liyu often walk, get used to it, and don't feel hard to walk in!
After walking less than a few miles, the sky was completely dark, the forest on both sides of the road was dense, there were many towering trees in the forest, and the cold night wind was gusting, fortunately, the temperature was not very low a few days ago, although the sky was cloudy, but there was no snow!
The night wind blew the leaves rattling, although Tian Limai let her sister Tian Liyu always walk in front, Tian Limai still felt that her sister Tian Liyu was a little scared!
Tian Limai had nothing to say, and figured out that Guò kept talking to drive away the fear in his sister Tian Liyu's heart, but it didn't have much effect!
"Nest - fire, nest - fire, nest fire nest fire nest - fire ......" At this time, the cry of an owl came from somewhere in the forest, which frightened her sister Tian Liyu and didn't dare to move, Tian Limai hurriedly took a step forward and said to her sister Tian Liyu: "Sister, my brother helps you sing a song, how about it?"
After Tian Limai finished speaking, he didn't allow his sister Tian Liyu to agree, so he sang loudly: "Let's go, let's go, the stars in the sky are in the Beidou——," Tian Limai's loud singing like a shout echoed in the forest!
"Mai'er, is that you?" came the shout of his father Tian Hezhuang from the side of the mountain road not far from the darkness!
"Dad, it's us!Where are you?" Father Tian Hezhuang's shout drove away the fear in the hearts of his sister Tian Liyu and Tian Limai, Tian Limai shouted loudly.
"Mai'er, I'm here!" Father's shout came from the other side of the mountain road, and it seemed to be getting closer!
"Dad, my sister and I are here to pick you up!" Tian Limai shouted and then said to his sister Tian Liyu: "Sister, let's take Dad!"
The brother and sister walked forward less than 200 meters away, and then followed their father Tian Hezhuang.
Father Tian Hezhuang also flashlighted alone, limping and walking on the mountain road with difficulty, Tian Limai and his sister Tian Liyu surrounded him, "Dad, why did you come back so late?" asked her sister Tian Liyu.
"Yu'er, Dad is late!" Father Tian Hezhuang said.
Tian Limai's heart slipped away from his heart without staying because he followed his father's appreciation for a short time, because through the bright light of the flashlight, he saw that although his father Tian Hezhuang was promising him and his sister Tian Liyu, his father's face was gloomy!
Tian Limai let his father walk in the front, his sister Tian Liyu walked in the middle, and he himself walked in the back.
Tian Limai was silent, silently following behind, he didn't know why his father Tian Hezhuang's face was gloomy? Could it be that Shan Duoyi didn't agree to his father?
If that's the case, that's exactly what Tian Limai wants!
"Dad, have you had dinner?" asked her sister Tian Liyu.
"Not yet, if you leave after dinner, it will be even later, what about you?" asked his father, Tian Hezhuang.
"No, Dad, when my brother and I came to pick you up, Mom was doing it! Dad, do you seem to be unhappy?" Sister Tian Liyu heard from her father Tian Hezhuang's words that her father Tian Hezhuang was a little abnormal.
"Yu'er, I was on the road just now, don't talk about it, let's talk about it when I go home!" Father Tian Hezhuang said.
Father and son walked on a rugged mountain road.
