Chapter 54: Returning Home
In the early morning of Saturday, Yang Rui was covered with a blanket and slept soundly; didn't go to chat with Zhou Gong, nor did he dream of any beautiful concubines or anything like that, the whole process was very peaceful.
Of course, this is also thanks to watching TV until three o'clock last night.
"Bumper!"
After a few knocks on the door, Liu Juan's voice came from outside the bedroom door: "It's ten o'clock, get up quickly, do you want to go to your grandfather's." ”
"Got it, I'll get up right away!" Yang Rui's voice seemed a little lazy, and some heavy eyelids obviously didn't intend to be able to open them now; The summer is gone, and the beginning of autumn is also a long time ago, and it actually feels very good to sleep well in this season.
After getting out of bed, Yang Rui's consciousness began to be completely awake; Thinking of agreeing to come down and go back to the countryside with Liu Juan last night, Yang Rui secretly regretted it.
In the past, when Liu Juan said that she would let Yang Rui go back together, Yang Rui always shirked it for various reasons; Last night, thinking that he had been reborn for so long now, it was normal for him to meet his relatives, so he agreed. It's just that now, Yang Rui is more likely to lie in bed for a day.
Obviously, this is not possible.
Yang Rui began to dress and wash, put on a more casual clothes, although it is the beginning of autumn, but the temperature is a few degrees lower than in the middle of summer, but it is still hot enough, short-sleeved clothes have to wait until October to slowly withdraw from this year's life.
Leyang can be regarded as having four distinct seasons, at least you can clearly feel the changes of the four seasons in spring, summer, autumn and winter; It's just that compared to those cities that often have 39 or 40 degrees Celsius, the maximum temperature in summer is 344 degrees is not too high.
In winter, if it drops below freezing, there are no days a year, and most of the time the temperature is a few degrees Celsius.
Anyway, in Leyang, it's quite suitable for life.
Of course, this is what Yang Rui is used to everything here to be able to speak.
"Mom, what are you doing?"
looked at Liu Juan a little strangely, this is going to the countryside, what are you still busy in the kitchen!
Liu Juan sprinkled the chopped green onions on the cutting board into the pot, and the things she had prepared early in the morning were completed.
"Your grandfather wants to eat hoof flowers, so I didn't take them for him." Liu Juan spoke, but her hands were not slow; Put the finished hoof flowers into a thermal box and make it ready.
After Yang Rui looked at it, he was used to this; Liu Juan would bring something with her every time she went back, sometimes at home, and sometimes at the market to buy some.
"Would you like to bring some wine back to your grandfather?"
He also heard Liu Juan talk about the fact that his grandfather Liu Tanghe likes to drink, in fact, the people in the past will basically take a good sip; It doesn't matter if the amount of alcohol is good or not, but it's really unpleasant not to take a sip every day.
Liu Juan did not object to drinking; A small amount of alcohol is still good for the health of the body, don't drink too much, the amount of one or two a day is the best.
"Forget it, I brought him a bottle of your wine last time, and he wasn't used to drinking it." Liu Juan smiled and shook her head, Yang Rui brought back some barley wine when he came back from his last trip, and Liu Tanghe, who was used to local wine, drank it very little after drinking it once.
……
It is not too far from Leyang to Yang Rui's grandfather's house, at least for Yang Rui; For him, as long as he goes out, he is not too far to go anywhere.
My grandfather lives in a place called Liujiawan, and Yang Rui is already powerless to complain about this place name; In Leyang, there are many places where the place names are what is Jiawan and the like. Anyway, it's easy to remember how to shout.
The environment of Liujiawan is very good, there is a small river passing through, although the water volume of the small river is not large, but it is enough for people to wash clothes in it, carry water and water the vegetable field.
Typical hilly countryside, quiet and laid-back. Well, it would be best if the tree knew and didn't call.
Thanks to the highway through the village, Yang Rui directly drove the car to the door of his grandfather's house; Through the car window, Yang Rui was a little surprised, there were really a lot of people who came today. Rural houses generally have a spacious yard dam in front of them, which is used to dry rice, corn and the like during farming; If there is something red and white, it can also be used to set up a wedding feast or something.
It's just that there are more people today, Yang Rui looked at Liu Juan, but she was obviously not surprised; When she came back for the first time some time ago, a lot of people came to this house quickly; Today she is going to bring Yang Rui back with her, and she called her parents last night to inform her parents, it is normal for so many people to come.
The reason why Liujiawan is called this is because the farmers here are basically surnamed Liu, and after hundreds of years of reproduction, they are already a rare surname in this village; Moreover, the other surnames in the village have intermarried with each other for hundreds of years, which can be regarded as relatives strictly speaking.
It's just that now, the previous clan concept is weakening, and although they are relatives, they are not so diligent in moving around; For example, the number one or twenty people in the courtyard now are all people who are relatively close.
"Grandpa and grandma!"
Compared with the images in his memory, the person in front of him is much older; I haven't seen them for a long time, but Yang Rui still recognizes them at a glance.
The bits and pieces in the memory slowly returned, and Yang Rui didn't have many opportunities to meet them, or even very few, but when they met, they could still be recognized instantly.
"Eh, Rui'er is here, come and sit."
Yang Rui smiled and went to sit next to his grandmother; Getting along with the elderly, Yang Rui is also used to acting according to their wishes, which will be much easier; In fact, some people often say that getting along with the elderly is very tiring and annoying, and Yang Rui actually understands it.
When people get old, they will talk about many things non-stop, but Yang Rui feels that the reason why they keep talking is actually to teach you his decades of life experience; Although their experience may seem to people nowadays to be quite outdated, Yang Rui thinks that this experience is always experience, and you can't simply believe in and rely on experience, because the world is constantly changing; However, there is something to learn from experience.
"Grandma, you're all right."
Although he inherited Yang Rui's memory, he did not inherit his feelings; Now Yang Rui's respect and love for his relatives is more because he thinks that this is what he should do and a responsibility in life.
For his grandfather and grandmother, Yang Rui is more of an ordinary old man.
"Your grandmother is in good health, and she can eat most of this meal." A woman next to her spoke, and it could be seen that this person's personality was the kind of more atmospheric; Well, it seems that the character of rural women is more atmospheric, they can do farm work in the mountains, and they can cook when they go home.
In Yang Rui's memory, rural women are very angry anyway, and even in many families, women have always been in charge, and Yang Rui is used to this.
Yang Rui smiled, this is in the countryside, judging how a person's body is, it depends on how people eat, and if they can eat, it means that they are in good health; This is probably also related to whether Na Lian is still able to eat, and it has a lot to do with it.
