Hanging up the phone, Lu Li couldn't help but secretly clench his fists, convincing Song Kongming is equivalent to convincing his grandfather, which also means that grandma's dream can finally come true!

Closing his eyes, Lu Li could clearly paint the picture of that memory in his mind, the figure of his grandmother sitting at the door of the house, bathed in the sunset, with a lonely expression, gently humming an unknown mountain song, and the faint sadness between his eyebrows was swirling under the bloody sunset. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

At that time, he was only seven years old, and he didn't know what sadness was, nor did he know what loss was, and he didn't know what loneliness was, but he could feel that the precipitation of the years had ruthlessly left traces on his grandmother's face, which made people feel sour.

He didn't understand his grandmother's emotions, and asked in a childish voice, "Grandma, what are you looking at?"

"I'm looking at the scenery. Grandma shook her body slightly, and said with a smile, "Look, isn't the sunset at dusk beautiful? Can you imagine what kind of scenery is on the other side of the sky?" The world out there is so big and big that it's unimaginable, and we never know what the end of the road will be unless we walk through it ourselves. Do you want to see it when you grow up?"

He nodded understandingly, and could hear his grandmother's almost murmuring voice, "I want to go see it too." ”

At that time, he didn't understand, but he just snuggled in his grandmother's arms obediently, looking at his grandmother's smile, but he was inexplicably sad.

When he grew up, he finally understood that his grandmother was not only his grandmother, but also a person, an ordinary person, who had experienced the ignorance of childhood, the longing of youth, and the labor pains of growing up.

Their generation always has too many constraints and too many responsibilities. Society is like an irresistible torrent, pushing them forward quickly, and it is too late to enjoy their youth, and their dreams, their freedom, and their persistence are dissipated in their daily life like water.

It's like a flower, it doesn't have time to bloom, it has already withered.

Now that he has finally grown up, he is finally capable of fulfilling her dreams for his grandmother. Just like himself.

What Lu Li wants to see most now is the loving and happy smile on his grandmother's face, just by depicting it in his mind, the happiness in his chest is about to overflow, even better than his own dreams.

couldn't wait, Lu Li dialed his grandmother's mobile phone.

The phone rang for a while before it was connected, and my grandmother's familiar voice sounded, "Who?"

Inexplicably, his eyes moistened. Lu Li wiped his eyes in embarrassment, showed a big smile, and raised his voice and shouted, "Grandma, it's me, Lu Li." ”

Lu Li's grandmother is 74 years old this year, and her hearing has begun to deteriorate, although it is not so bad that she can't hear it, but she still needs to speak loudly.

In fact, my grandmother didn't use mobile phones before, she felt that she didn't need them anyway, and there was a landline phone at home, but after Lu Li went abroad, in order to facilitate contact, my grandmother began to use mobile phones, not an advanced smart phone, but the simplest straight board machine, the font is particularly large, and it is extremely clear.

"Lu Li?" grandma's voice carried a hint of surprise, "How are you? Are you still in good health? You must pay attention to your body outside, and you must eat on time, every time I see you, you lose weight." ”

"I'm fine! Grandma, don't worry, I'm all right. Lu Li said loudly, the smile on the corner of his mouth involuntarily rose, "My graduation photo, have you seen it?" Grandma didn't know anything about electronic products, so Lu Li sent the photo to the second aunt, and then the second aunt showed it to grandma.

"See. Grandma's laughter came, "It seems that there are so many people wearing bachelor's uniforms, but you are still the most handsome." Stronger than when your dad was younger. Lu Li laughed loudly, "How do you feel? Now that you have graduated, do you have a real feeling? I also told Xiaoqi that day that I should learn from her Uncle Lu Li in the future and take you as a role model!"

"Me?" Lu Li was surprised and shook his head again and again, "I'm just an ordinary college student, where is a role model." ”

"As a college student, of course, it's nothing, but now the times are different, college students are everywhere, and international students are not uncommon. Grandma spoke straightforwardly, and buried Lu Li mercilessly, making Lu Li's cheeks slightly hot.

"But you are brave enough to go out, you have to know that you are still young, it is the best time, do whatever you want to do, be brave and do it, don't worry about your dad and your mom. If you want to settle down, after the age of forty or fifty, you will have a long half of your life to slowly settle down, and now while you are young, you can break through more, and it doesn't matter if you fail, what are young people afraid of, you can stand up immediately when your head is broken and bleeding. Therefore, I asked Xiaoqi to learn from you as well. ”

The simple words, but with a faint warmth, made Lu Li's eyes heat slightly.

Growing up, my grandmother was always like this. Encourage him to let go and pursue his dreams, encourage him to venture into the outside world, and encourage him to try more while he is young. Grandma was always his strongest backing, and now it was his turn to be her backing.

"Grandma, don't you want to go out and see for yourself, and see the scenery beyond the horizon of this world?" Lu Li showed a big smile and cheered for his grandmother.

"Haha. Grandma laughed directly, "I can't, I can't, I'm too old, how old are I now, I don't have the energy, I don't have the physical strength, how can I go outside and run around." Shaking his head again and again, without much hesitation, he directly refused, "Besides, your grandfather's health is not good, he still needs to recuperate slowly." ”

"Grandma, if you want to go out for a walk, age is not a problem. Lu Li said firmly, "It's like when I was a child, I wanted to ride a bicycle with my friends to Guishan for an outing, and my mother was worried about my safety, so she was not very willing, and in the end you persuaded her, didn't you?"

"It's the same. Grandma shook her head and said negatively.

But Lu Li interrupted his grandmother's refusal, "It's the same!" The firm words did not waver in the slightest, which made the grandmother stunned, and he repeated again, "Grandma, this is the same." You always say that if we decide to do something, then no matter how big a difficulty is, then no matter how big a problem, it is not a problem, but if we decide to give up something, then even the smallest setback can be an excuse. ”

"When we were 20, we said that finding a job was the priority, when we were 30, we started to worry about getting married, when we were 40, we had no breathing room under the pressure of raising children, and when we were 50, we started to worry about our children's career plans. When I was finally able to retire at the age of 60, I realized that I had hesitated all my life, but I had never succeeded in anything. ”

Lu Li's words silenced her grandmother, her smile gradually froze on her lips, a little overwhelmed, and the memories that had precipitated in her mind began to shine again.

"If you want, start carving out your life at the age of twenty, but what if you miss it? No, of course not. Every day is a new beginning, every day is a new attempt, and as long as you want, every day begins to be the starting point of a new life. But if you don't even want to take the first step, then that's all there is to life. ”

After the series of words were finished, Lu Li stopped and took a breath, he knew that he was a little excited.

Grandma is always accustomed to disappointment, every time she brings up her hopes, she ends in disappointment, so that she doesn't dare to hope anymore, and the shackles of age make her have no capital to be disappointed, so she can only let go of the edges and corners of her youth unwillingly. But it wasn't grandma's fault, there was no need for him to be so excited.

"Grandma, come to the United States to play, in the second half of the year, let Brother Kong Ming come over with his sister-in-law and Xiaoqi, as well as you and grandpa. I can go back and pick you up if I need to. Lu Li solemnly sent out an invitation, but there was silence on the other end of the phone, grandma did not respond, Lu Li thought that the phone was disconnected, listened carefully, and captured the sound of breathing, so he breathed a sigh of relief.

Lu Li knew that his grandmother was afraid of having expectations again, what if his grandfather refused again? What if this hope was disappointed again? What if in the end it was empty and happy?

"I've already told Brother Kong Ming, you can rest assured. Lu Li added.

Grandma laughed softly, and did not speak immediately, but paused for a long time before re-speaking, "It seems that you have grown up." ”

These are all things she taught Lu Li before, time flies, and now Lu Li has grown into what she expected, but unexpectedly. The smile on the corner of his mouth couldn't help but rise. Fingers couldn't help but stretch out to the graduation photo on the desktop, the film forever locked the moment of Lu Li's graduation, and suddenly he was already a young man. Time, it's really too fast.

"Grandma?" Lu Li didn't understand what Grandma meant, and asked with some curiosity and some urgency.

"Okay, I'll go. Grandma gave the answer, neatly and neatly, without any extra strings attached, and just agreed. The stone that was pressing heavily on his chest slowly slid down, and it seemed that the whole person became relaxed, and the curvature of the corners of his mouth ...... It flew up, as if spreading its wings.

Lu Li opened his mouth slightly, stunned in place, and after a pause of about two seconds, ecstasy surged into his heart, and the taste of happiness rippled on the tip of his tongue. Even if his grandfather disagrees, even if he wants to return to his hometown in person, even if it is not Yunding Ranch but other places in the country, he has to realize his dream for his grandmother. Do whatever it takes!

Once, his grandmother supported him to have the courage to pursue his dreams and bravely take steps to explore the world, and now, it is his turn to support his grandmother and realize her dreams.

She is Lu Li's grandmother or Yuan Qingzhu.
