When Zhao Yang returned to his house again, it was almost the New Year, and everyone who went out to work outdoors came back, and his father also came back, and he would not go out again from the New Year to the fifteenth day of the first lunar month. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Zhao Yang fulfilled his promise to his younger brother, bought a lot of delicious food and came back, his father came back from going out to work, and he also brought back a lot of special snacks from other places, as well as the new clothes that his aunt's family asked his uncle to bring, everyone has it, this year is better than his younger brother, he is not happy, there are good things to eat, there are new clothes to wear, of course, these Zhao Yang also have, but she is not a real child after all, and she can't feel these simple happiness.
Mom also made a lot of preparations for the New Year, bought a lot of vegetables, as well as meat, maybe this year with Zhao Yang accidentally brought back the money, seeing Zhao Yang's big bag of snacks, Dad brought back from outside, she rarely didn't say anything, watching her brother happily tossing back and forth, the corners of her mouth also showed a shallow smile, Zhao Yang also bought some food for her grandparents when she bought things, and now that Dad is back, she took the opportunity to go to see grandma with her father with things.
To be honest, the relationship between mother and grandmother is not as good as it seems, the problems between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law have been difficult to solve since ancient times, and my father is caught in the middle, and I don't know how to be good, so I simply live separately, if I don't meet often, the problem will recede, and my father and grandfather are relieved, their family has always been a woman's housekeeper, and they are very strong, quarrelling, and the most headache is grandpa and dad.
"Ahem, ahem!"
Dad took Zhao Yang to his grandfather's house on a bicycle, and as soon as he entered the door, he heard his grandfather's cough vigorously, "Grandpa, what's wrong with you?" Why is the cough so severe, have you seen a doctor? ”
"Grandpa is fine, the doctor said it will be fine in two days, Yangyang, come, come into the house and sit."
Grandpa glanced at the things that his father was carrying, and didn't say anything, he knew that his son had been separating the family, and he felt a little guilty about them, and he couldn't stay at home for a few days all year round, but he would come to them when he came back, and look at them, the old couple felt that it was very good, and the family was not rich, so he didn't buy anything when he came, but his son's temper didn't know who to follow, and he was stubborn and stubborn, but he didn't listen.
"Old woman, Yang Yang and her father are here, you hurry up and bring out the dishes you cut in the morning!"
"Grandpa, I'll help grandma serve food" Yang Yang ran out of the room, leaving grandpa and dad staring dryly in the room.
Dad and grandpa didn't talk much, in the room, watching Yangyang go out, he couldn't think of anything to say for a while.
Dad touched his pocket, he bought a good cigarette when he came back, lit one for grandpa, brought one for himself, smoked it, and for a while the room was full of smoke,
"How about going out and being outside?"
"It's okay, that's it, nothing has changed."
"Oh."
After Dad went out, he mainly moved bricks to other people's construction sites outside, pushed carts or something, and sold coolies, which were very hard every day, and at the end of the year, he couldn't make much money, if he met a good boss, people would give you a year's wages for a year's hard work, and if he met a black-hearted boss, it would be bad, and there was nothing for a hard year.
"Open the window, or your mother will bring the food later, and it's time to talk again."
"Mm-hmm" Dad took a few puffs, finished the rest of the cigarette, and threw his and Grandpa's cigarette butts outside, before he came in and opened the window to change the air in the room.
"Dinner is coming!" Zhao Yang first put the bowl in her hand on the table in the room, and then opened the door curtain, and let the grandmother with the dish come in.
On this day, the family was supposed to be reunited, and my mother wouldn't say anything.
It was getting dark, and Dad left with Yangyang, and when he left, Yangyang heard the sound of his grandfather's cough again, and pulled his father's sleeve, "Dad, let's take Grandpa to the hospital to have a look, Grandpa is always coughing today." ”
"Okay" Dad responded, my father coughed so badly today, although he endured it a few times, but how could he not see it, or he was incompetent, Dad wanted to hammer his chest, the days have been tight in the past few years, and he couldn't even get the money for his father to go to the hospital to see, it was his unfilial piety as a son!
Looking at his father's silent expression, how could Zhao Yang not think of what his father was worried about, right! Zhao Yang remembered one thing, the well water in her space, since she entered the space that time, she had no chance to go in again, there were always people around her, so she didn't drink the well water yet, and she didn't know what the effect was.
"Dad, there are medicine sellers in the village, why don't we go and buy a box of medicine for grandpa first!"
"Okay." Dad fumbled for a few dollars in his pocket. It should be enough.
"Dad, just leave your bike here, I want to go to the toilet."
"Go ahead, Dad will be waiting for you here when he comes out."
"Uh-huh"
After Zhao Yang arrived at the toilet, he closed the door, and the speed reached the space, and it took a lot of effort to pull the well water up, put it in an empty bottle that she secretly threw into the space, and when she got out of the toilet, she saw that her father was already waiting there.
"Are you alright, have you eaten a bad stomach? How did it take so long. ”
Zhao Yang nodded indiscriminately, got in the car and went to his grandfather's house with his father.
Grandpa also wondered why they came back again, Zhao Yang didn't care about this, said that he was thirsty and wanted to drink water, went directly to the kitchen, covered the door, and then took out the water bottle filled with well water. First got a glass of water in the cup, and then dropped a few drops of the well water into it, she drank it herself and didn't feel anything, and added a few more drops, then she felt that the water had a sweet taste, she poured all the well water in the bottle into the two large vats specially filled with water at her grandfather's house, scooped a large cup out, and gave it to her grandfather to drink.
Looking at his son and granddaughter who came back to buy medicine for him, his heart was very warm.
"Huh? Yangyang, where did you get the water? Why is it so sweet? "Grandpa had a drink, it was so sweet.
"It's the water you took from the kitchen, is there anything in it?" Yang Yang smiled in his heart, but he couldn't see anything on his face.
Dad also got a glass of water and drank it himself, it was indeed very sweet and delicious.
"Wife, what did you add to the water? It's so delicious......"
As soon as grandma entered the house, grandpa stopped her, didn't add anything, grandma was strange, she took a sip of the water handed over by grandpa, "This water is obviously the same as usual, what can I add!" Grandma said angrily that she was angry when she saw him sitting here leisurely while he was sick.
"Why don't you go and burn the kang, it's getting dark!" She still has to go to the kitchen to prepare food for the New Year. Seeing that her grandfather was gone, she poured another big glass of water and drank it, huh? This water is better than usual, just a busy day, back pain, drink this water, feel waist, back are a lot better.
Dad watched his grandmother dry a large glass of water in one go, he was a little stunned, is he so thirsty, and then he felt guilty, it was his unfilial piety as a son, Mom and Dad were so old, they didn't even have someone to take care of......
"Mom, is there anything else to do in the kitchen? I'm here to help. "Dad volunteered,
"Usually a person who can't even help a vinegar bottle when it falls, what can you do? Or I'm going to be busy myself," grandma knew that Dad had just come back from a year out, so she had a good rest at home for a few days, so she was willing to let him be busy.
"Dad, you see it's getting dark, or we'll stay at Grandpa's house today! You go to burn the kang with grandpa, and I'll go help grandma. ”
"Well, that's hard work for you!" Dad touched Yangyang's head with relief, he came back to Yangyang this time to be a lot more sensible, and the child has grown up! Suddenly, he felt a sense of pride in being a father.
