Chapter 9: Memories Triggered by Self-Blame
When Kong Xiaoyu looked up at her former aunt, her mother-in-law, she was in a bad mood and wanted to say a sentence according to her original temper, but when she felt her daughter move her little hand, she also thought of what her daughter had just said, and her face that wanted to be cold twitched for a while, revealing a slight smile, and she just opened her mouth slightly and agreed: "Alas, here it is." ”
Although Yu Mingyue didn't see her mother's expression, with her years of experience, she secretly said in her heart: It's dangerous. Grandma can't be provoked today, otherwise according to her temper, the matter that her parents are thinking about will be even more ruined.
Yu Mingyue sighed, hurriedly grabbed her parents' hands, and said coquettishly as she ran forward: "Dad, Mom, go quickly, I'm about to starve to death." The small fish soup that my grandmother cooked for my mother was so fragrant that my brother-in-law and I had wanted to eat it for a long time, but my grandmother said that we could only drink it until my mother drank it. ”
In fact, this is only a few meters away from the stove room, and Yu Mingyue was so milky and milky, Yu Zhiqing directly picked up Yu Mingyue, and then smiled and pulled Kong Xiaoyu, and laughed while walking briskly: "You little gluttonous dog, that is what your grandmother cooked for your little brother to eat, where can you eat it first." As he spoke, he scratched Yu Mingyue's little nose.
When Yu Mingyue "giggled" out laughing, Yu Zhiqing felt his wife thumping him on the back, and heard his wife's muffled laughter behind him, his small but plump lips grinned, and the corners of his mouth were also higher.
At this time, except for his tall and slightly hooked nose and slightly flat forehead, the movements, expressions, and appearance on his baby face were exactly the same as Yu Mingyue in his arms.
When Yu Mingyue's family of three happily entered the stove room, Yu Tianzhou, who had a gloomy face, had already eased his expression, and was sitting on a low bench in front of the table more than two feet high and drinking wine, and talking to Kong Xinggang, who was sitting next to him, without saying a word.
When Yu Mingyue took her brother-in-law to greet her parents, she peeked at her grandfather's expression. Seeing that her grandfather had a gloomy face again, she secretly said that it was not good in her heart.
But when Kong Xiaoyu saw the small fish soup on the table with a lot of oil, he curled the corners of his mouth and picked up the earthen bowl on the square table, walked to the rice rack next to the table and began to serve rice.
When she walked to the wood steamer, she squinted and saw her mother-in-law who was still washing the pot water with a gourd scoop, she frowned slightly, turned her head and said, "Mom, let's eat first." Seeing that her mother-in-law didn't hear it, she forced a smile and said, "I wanted to finish removing the green bamboo shoots this morning, but I came back late." ”
"When the work in the field is finished, I don't want to think about what you are like now." Kong Ming replied angrily, put the scoop on the edge of the stove and pot, took a few steps to the table with a relaxed face, and reached out to take the bowl of rice handed over by Kong Xiaoyu before sitting at the table.
At this time, Kong Mingying was happy to see her daughter-in-law respect her so much, but when she saw the old man who drank wine without moving her chopsticks, the corners of her mouth that had just curled fell, and she scolded angrily: "You dead old man, you don't want your life anymore, you dare to drink like this when you come back for most of the day, do you still think that the debts owed by the family are not enough, or not?" ”
Yu Tianzhou's originally gloomy face instantly became a little more bitter, he didn't answer, but put down the small wine glass that mentioned his mouth.
Yu Mingyue has been paying attention to the expressions of the four adults since she entered the door, and at this time she hurriedly took the second bowl of rice handed by her mother, and secretly blamed herself in her heart, and walked quickly to her grandfather's side, and said sweetly: "Grandpa, eat a bowl of rice and drink again, otherwise grandma is worried that your stomach will hurt." ”
Kong Mingying liked her granddaughter to be so well-behaved the most, grinned a little, pulled Yu Mingyue to the same bench and sat down, sandwiched a big loach into Yu Mingyue's small earthen bowl containing half a bowl of rice, and said: "Xiaoyue, eat quickly, you are hungry today, eat more, so that you can grow taller." After speaking, he put two chopsticks and boiled cabbage into Yu Mingyue's bowl.
Yu Mingyue looked at the big loach and the little cabbage in the bowl, with a sweet smile on her face that she should have as a child, and began to eat the rice in the bowl slowly, but she blamed herself and pondered in her heart:
When I entered the stove room just now, I was busy observing the expressions of several adults, and I didn't even notice that my grandfather had drunk the wine first.
You know, grandpa was admitted to the hospital more than two years ago because of a serious gastrointestinal problem.
After an examination in the hospital, the doctor said that he had acute gastroenteritis, and because of factors such as improper diet, there were also signs of acute gastric ulcer, and he was hospitalized for more than a month before he recovered.
In the district hospital of this era, the medical conditions were absolutely not high, and I didn't know if the doctor checked it correctly, but in my memory, I only knew that my grandfather did get sick at the same time, and then he didn't go to the hospital for treatment, and finally it became more and more strict, and he died more than a month later.
I don't know if this time it was because my grandfather's condition changed, or because my parents were alive this time, so my grandfather just suffered from the same disease, but he survived because he was in the hospital for treatment.
More than two years ago, I began to think hard about this question, trying to find the answer, and then preparing myself to meet the hurdle that my grandmother might encounter when I was six years old, but I still haven't found the answer.
Although after my grandfather was hospitalized, I went to the field to cut pigweed because I wanted to help my parents reduce the burden. As a result, because of his three-year-old body, when he was distressed that he couldn't hold the pile of sweet potato vines at once, the sweet potato vines that were originally placed on the ground suddenly disappeared.
I was shocked and suspicious at the time, and then I sensed something strange in my brain. After being stunned, I looked closely, and I clearly "saw" those sweet potato vines in my mind, which were stacked in a low space like fog around me.
After the shock, when I just wanted to look at the size of the space, I already had a clear answer in my mind: the usable area of the space is 32 square meters, and the usable volume of the space is 64 cubic meters.
After a period of surprise and exploration, I finally recognized the facts: there was indeed a thing in my body that could only hold items for the time being, and this thing was called "space".
When I wonder what an object is, I immediately know that this "object" does not include animals other than oneself, objects that are larger than space, and that are larger than oneself.
After a few realities, I can be completely sure that this is not a fantasy or a dream, this is an indisputable fact.
Because as long as you are 32 square meters away from yourself, or 2 meters high, you can instantly put the qualified "items" you want to receive into the space.
And if it is an unqualified living creature or a large thing, this "ability" is useless.
For this reason, I have done countless experiments.
I tried to put the rotten eggplant with insects inside into the space - but the rotten eggplant was gone, but the two fleshy green bugs fell under the eggplant tree.
I tried to take away a fish in a water bottle - but there were only three more rotting small fish carcasses, a few small fish bones, and fish bones in the space.
Also
In short, after several shocks, nausea, and disappointments, I was powerless to resist. If you don't want to torture yourself anymore, you have to honestly follow the inherent rules that God has "compensated" you with as a gift.
Earlier, I was also studious and asked in my mind: What does "for the time being" mean?
In the brain: After upgrading, you can increase the function.
Curious question: What is an upgrade?
In the head: (no response)
After being stunned and stunned, he asked: How to upgrade?
In the head: (no response)
Stunned: Are you dead?
Brain: If you're not dead, you're not dead
In the days of the duel with his own brain or space, he was defeated, but it also became clearer: this magical thing called space is really just a useless thing for the time being.
So in the days that followed, I was still scared.
Not only should we always pay close attention to the daily diet of my grandfather, who should have been no longer alive; It is still necessary to pay attention to the lives of parents who are supposed to be no longer in the world, and do our best not to let them go out during thunderstorms.
I have to pay it back
"Satsuki!" Kong Mingying saw that her granddaughter had a bite to eat, and she frowned and shouted unhappily.
Yu Mingyue was frightened and came back to her senses, she was busy calming down, before she looked sideways at her grandmother, and whispered with a puzzled face: "Grandma? ”
