Chapter 195: The Family Celebrates
On his uncle's birthday, before going to the East China Sea, Jiafeng took his sister to be a guest.
Jiafeng's mother had three sisters, the eldest in line, who died when Jiafeng was very young, and Jiafeng left almost no impression, but a kind of family affection that was cut off was caused by every time he walked on the road to his uncle's house, there was an inexplicable feeling.
Look at a certain famous book Zeng Yun: The so-called relatives try to get light on each other, and once they don't achieve their goal, they turn their faces, but they are still very sacred in the eyes of children, and they have nothing to do with anything else, because they are simple.
The uncle is the second eldest and the only son of his grandmother, who lives in a secluded mountain village; The third aunt is not far from the third aunt's house and lives in the same big village.
People are in love, people go tea and cool, only when Jiafeng can experience it, then I feel that there is an extraordinary, intense feeling.
My grandfather passed away a few years ago, and my grandmother was in good health, thin and small, although she was in her 70s, she carried a tree with a thick bowl mouth, passed by the door of my uncle's new house, and slowly walked towards an old house 200 meters away.
"Grandma, you can rest, there is something for your uncle to do, don't you have to work so hard?" Jiafeng called, thinking to himself, aren't there a lot of visitors today? It is said that it is somewhat out of place or uncoordinated, and this is not to create an indecent impression of unfilial piety to the guests
Is it?
Grandma replied as she walked: "Xiaofeng, here, I will eat separately from your uncle...... Go sit with me! ”
It turns out that an elderly person lives separately, there are always many things to do by himself, such as finding wood to make a fire to cook, heating, carrying water, etc., grandma life is not easy, so why did the child go?
There are many such phenomena in the countryside, Jiafeng has seen a neighbor, the old man is eating at his son's house, maybe the food is indecent, the daughter-in-law grabbed the old man's bowl and threw it out of the door, the old man, the son was dazed......
Could it be that this phenomenon is not an isolated case, think about it is a little sad, everyone has a time when they are old, and the poor must have something to hate?
When Jiafeng's mother died, Jiafeng was still a baby, and was fostered at her aunt's house for a period of time, and it happened that her grandmother was a guest at her daughter's house, that is, her aunt's house.
Growing up, Jiafeng understood that there is no love for no reason, and there is no hatred for no reason, the deeper the love, the deeper the hatred.
My uncle's new house is a 5-storey building, with a new interior and exterior decoration, and my uncle is a hard-working and capable builder.
Horizontal batch: Celebrate with the whole family.
The left and right are: half a century of vicissitudes of life to teach the three sons to become adults, and countless new houses have been built in the past 50 years.
"Jiafeng is here! Sit inside. The enthusiastic aunt stood at the door and welcomed Jiafeng into the door.
My uncle was busy in the kitchen, which was full of prepared delicacies inside and out, and the hospitality was impeccable.
"Uncle, happy birthday, this is a gift for you." Jiafeng presented a bottle of Nandi Erqu wine, a good cigarette, a bag of nutritious cereal, and a red envelope containing hundreds of yuan.
The two masters smiled happily, with a spring breeze on their faces, and took them one by one.
Uncle: "Xiaofeng, you can come, why do you buy so many things?...... If only your mom were still around, now you've found a girlfriend. ”
"Uncle, this is my colleague, who came from South China and brought him here for travel and play." Jiafeng corrected and told the truth, "Don't be embarrassed to ......"
My aunt was very excited: "It just so happens that my nephew Sizai is almost 30 years old this year, and he hasn't found a partner yet, Xiaofeng can help introduce him, and he is here today." ”
"Okay, let's see if the two sides are interesting......" Jiafeng wants to make a joke about Ah Mei and see how the girl reacts?
I saw a young man of medium stature and a dark face come to the person and greeted Jiafeng: "Old cousin, I am the fourth boy, I heard my aunt say that you can mix outside!" A lot of beauties like it, so envious...... This beauty, drive at night, I invite everyone to go to the county KTV to play! ”
"Brother Feng, are you here for a blind date today, or are you here to have birthday wine? If you go on a blind date, I can go. Ah Mei asked Jiafeng, "Why did everyone introduce me to me?" What are you doing with me! ”
My aunt talked and laughed: "Just kidding, I know you like Xiaofeng very much, but my nephew is not bad, he contracts projects on the construction site, and his annual income is considerable, you see that the car in front of him is his, but he doesn't know how to chase girls, so he has to learn from Xiaofeng......"
Is this a compliment or a detriment?
A large group of people came in front, it turned out that the aunt with 4 children, three daughters and a son, also came to be a guest, except for the uncle did not come, the whole family went out, which can be described as grand.
My aunt carried 2 bags of things, and I saw her hand her uncle a live chicken, plus some cheap small gifts, such as longevity noodles, eggs, candy, etc.
My aunt and uncle snatched the goods and threw them on the ground at the door, and the chickens broke free from the grass rope and flew at the door of the house.
The aunt's second daughter, Meng Na, who was still studying in secondary school, ran forward to chase her, and the eggs on the ground were broken and trampled all over the ground under the girl's feet.
"No, let's go see grandma, and we'll leave." Aunt called, saw Jiafeng, a look of surprise, "Xiaofeng, why don't you go to see your grandmother when you come, and don't go to my house when you come back, grandma always tells you to come." ”
It's a little strange and embarrassing, when I went home last year, my aunt looked for a blind date for him, and I was very concerned, and now I have come back for many days, and I haven't visited many relatives and friends who are kind to me.
"yes, okay." Jiafeng took Ah Mei's hand and went to an old house with her aunt's family.
"Xiaofeng, do you know why my aunt lost my things? If it weren't for my grandmother, I wouldn't want to go back to my parents' house. As she walked, my aunt said, "I'm not a stingy person, although you didn't help you when you were studying?" There wasn't much money then, but now that you have money, you don't need it anymore...... I'm still thinking about you!
"Auntie, I don't know what is going on inside...... Jiafeng doesn't know whether to be relieved or apologize, "but I know that you are very good, you helped me a lot when you were studying, and I will repay you in the future!" ”
A crumbling old house of more than 100 years old, spacious, dark, and damp, in which the old man made a fire with wood and prepared a simple Chinese meal.
The aunt handed a large bag of things to the old man: "Mom, Xiaofeng and I have come to see you!" ”
Jiafeng's nose was sour, because he didn't prepare anything for the old man.
Fingers together, fumbling, reaching into pockets, but empty, what an embarrassment!
