Chapter 127: Return of Glory (2)
"Sister-in-law, sister-in-law! Eh, why isn't this guy at home?"
"Yingzi, where is your mother, why is she not at home, she is going to worship her ancestors soon, why is there no one yet?"
Tan Ying came out of the room.
"Second master, my mother went to the store to call."
"What about your dad and your brother, didn't they say that they came back today, they haven't come back at this time, this person is really, everyone is waiting, what kind of shelf are they holding!"
Tan Ying pursed her lips, this second master is not her second master, and she always talks about her own generation, I don't know how capable he is, but in fact he is a thorn, not as old as her father, relying on his seniority, he always calls "Lin Rong Lin Rong", and there is no one in the family who does not hate him.
Seeing that he was still muttering there, Tan Ying became angry when she saw it.
"Second master, you go first, I'll tell them when my dad and my brother come back."
"Then you're not going with us? Your family is indispensable. ”
According to the customs of the family, it is indeed necessary for people to go, the words of the family are not in the man, there is no boy at home, and the unmarried girl must also go, this is a custom, and it is also a convention, with the change of the times, these things will gradually be forgotten by people, and when it comes to Tan Ying, in fact, the concept is not so heavy.
In fact, the most important thing is that Tan Ying wants to wait for her father and brother to come back, and his old Tan family is not without men, so it is difficult to go early and late, and it is really impossible to get rich and live, so she is anxious for a while.
Gensheng's mother's phone didn't get through, because the phone number left by Tan Gensheng was the village number left by Zhang Wenlin, but now after the establishment of the United Baihe New Village, the contact information in the village has been changed, and several phones have been set up again, where can she get through.
And now Zhang Wenlin has a phone installed at home, and the mobile phone is used less, after all, compared with the mobile phone, the telephone at this time is still more convenient and clearer, not to mention the phone bill, Zhang Wenlin is not distressed by the phone bill.
"Mom, Ju Sheng came to urge him again just now, and his speech was very ugly, saying that my dad and my brother were on the shelf, and he thought I didn't hear it!"
Gensheng glared at Tan Ying.
"As long as you can!"
"Mom-"
"Okay, okay, don't sell it there, you don't know who Ju Sheng is, what kind of person is your doll compared to him, are you here to urge us to worship our ancestors again, as far as your Tan family has a lot of things, and the ancestors still want to get together, it's better to sit at home for a while if this excitement is so good."
Stuffed a handful of firewood into the stove, Gensheng and his mother babbled two words no, Tan Ying smiled and pretended not to hear, her mother has been saying this sentence for many years, and she has to nag when she worships her ancestors every year.
"Mom, did you get through the phone? What time is it? ”
Tan Ying suddenly thought of this point again.
Gensheng still shook his head.
"The phone can't get through, don't worry, your dad said a few days ago that he would definitely be able to get home this afternoon, what's the hurry, it's not even four o'clock yet."
If you take the national highway from Batou to Xiling, the first time Zhang Wenlin and Shi Weibing set off at eight or nine o'clock in the morning, and arrived at Shancheng in the evening, because it was the first time, the road was delayed for a long time. However, if you go directly from Batou to Xiling, according to Tan Gensheng's driving level and familiarity with the road, if you start at five or six o'clock in the morning, it is estimated that you will be able to arrive home at less than four o'clock in the afternoon.
When Gensheng and his mother said this, in fact, Tan Linrong's father and son were about to enter the territory of Xiling.
The village customs in the countryside are to make a Chinese New Year's Eve meal at home first, and then go out to worship the ancestors, so when the father and son of the old Tan family have not returned, Gensheng and his mother have already cooked at home, but the red couplet on the wall of his house is a little weird, except for the upper and lower couplets are crookedly pasted up, the banner on the door beam is obviously empty.
It turned out that Tan Ying could only step on a stool next to the wall and barely paste the upper and lower links on both sides, the banners were out of reach, and a girl didn't dare to step on the stool to post the banner in the air, so she had to be empty.
"Shanglian: Spring breeze is proud of a wide range of wealth; Downlink: Peace, wealth, and prosperity. ”
"Sideways:-"
"Yingzi, Yingzi, where is your mother? Pack up your things and go up the hill with us to set off the guns, it's going to be dark when your dad and your brother come back!" ”
Tan Ying hadn't come back to her senses, and she heard someone shouting outside the door, and ran out to take a look, it turned out that the twenty or thirty people of the village surnamed Tan, old and young, were waiting at the door of the house.
"Second master, let's go, I'm not going, I'll wait for my dad and my brother to come back!"
Tan Jusheng was not happy when he heard this, originally Tan Linrong's family did not live in the ancestral house several times a year, they all came back to live for half a month at the end of the year, so they are also from the city, in his opinion, this is naturally to raise their identity, and to sacrifice an ancestor has to put on a shelf.
It's just that it's not good to say this to your face, and it's inevitable to look at your face.
"Let's go, let's go, people go back and go by themselves, there are many rules in this city, and we countrymen are still embarrassed to lose face together!"
The first half of the sentence was earth-shattering, and the second half of the sentence was muttering in the crowd, Tan Ying is not stupid, the students of the junior high school graduating class, can they not tell the difference between good and bad.
"That's it, don't come back from the city, why do you come back to live!"
There are also sensible people who naturally ignore it.
"Second child, you don't have to say a word."
A group of people turned around the threshing floor in front of Lao Tan's house, in front of the threshing floor is the sandy road into the village, the road is not wide but there are four or five meters of appearance, usually the village people build houses and pull bricks trucks can also come in.
Drip! Drip! Drip! Drip!
Before he went far, Didi's horn just sounded at the entrance of the village, and the black Audi car drove slowly along the dirt road.
Tan Linrong pushed the car door and came out first, and Tan Ying immediately rushed up.
"Daddy!"
The Tan family went up the mountain to worship their ancestors and saw a very conspicuous car driving in from afar, it must have been Tan Linrong's father and son back, but they were very curious, where did they come from such a good car, they all didn't believe it, so they all walked back in twos and threes, and saw that it was really him who pushed the car door down, which was really not a taste in my heart.
Although Tan Linrong has a small restaurant in the city, his family background is obviously not so good, and he went out in his early years, and he is not familiar with the village, not to mention how the relationship is. Look at his son Gensheng again, wearing a woolen coat on his body, his back is straight, and the car key in his hand is probably the one.
How could this man suddenly be lucky, and the faces of those who had spoken badly before became rapid one by one.
In Lao Tan's arms, Tan Ying was tired of crookedness, and she didn't bother to take care of those people.
Tan Linrong is not stupid, it can be seen from the expression on the face of his daughter, it must be Tan Jusheng's thing that speaks ugly, every year, in previous years, he was still a little restrained at home, this year he went to the mountain to worship his ancestors, his own man did not come back, and he almost missed the time, this must be extremely ugly.
However, it is too much to say these words to a girl and a woman, and when I think of this, my heart is more and more thoughtful to move to Zhang Wan.
It's hard to leave the homeland, but I can't bear the soil under my feet!
