"Grandma! It's the New Year, why are you opening your doors so early? ”

After Lin Qingxia walked to the old bookstore, she felt very cordial and nostalgic. When she was in middle school, she came to the second-hand book street more than once to search for used books.

For Lin Qingxia at that time, this was already the happiest thing.

Just looking at the old grandmother guarding this small old book house alone, Lin Qingxia asked curiously.

&β‰₯,€anshu↓ba.nbsp; The old woman looked to be in her seventies, and her movements were obviously a little sluggish.

The old grandmother looked at Lin Qingxia with a smile, then looked at Yan Qingyu who was smiling, and said with a smile: "What a handsome boy and sister, you have a good New Year!" ”

The accent of the old grandmother is not Taiwan's native Hokkien accent, nor is it Chinese, it should be said to be similar to the accent of the two lakes region of the mainland.

But I barely listened, and I was able to roughly understand what the old grandmother meant.

Lin Qingxia smiled: "Grandma, you also have a happy New Year!" ”

Yan Qingyu said happily: "Grandma, today is the second day of the Lunar New Year, you should go back to your parents' house!" Why didn't Grandma go back to her parents' house? ”

The old grandmother was very happy when she heard this, and stretched out her somewhat old and dry hand to cover her mouth, which had few teeth, but because she was laughing too happily, her mouth was too wide to cover it.

"My mother's home is in Hubei, in Enshi. I haven't been back in years......"

Although the smile on her face was very bright, Yan Qingyu and Lin Qingxia could still see from the old man's eyes that she missed her homeland.

Yan Qingyu smiled: "Grandma, are you a Tujia family?" ”

The old grandmother was obviously very surprised, and said, "Boy, how do you know that I am a Tujia?" ”

Yan Qingyu said: "I only know that Enshi is a gathering place for Tujia people, and Grandma said that her mother's family is in Enshi, so there should be eight out of ten. Nine is the Tujia people. ”

The old woman nodded and said, "Boy." On the ball. ”

Yan Qingyu learned the accent of the old grandmother and smiled: "Grandma, how hard it was to cry and sing back then? ”

When the old grandmother heard this, a flush appeared on her face, and she said, "Little boy, naughty ghost!" ”

Yan Qingyu laughed out loud and said to Lin Qingxia who was inexplicable on the side: "The custom of the Tujia family, the bride begins to cry and sing every day about ten days before the wedding, in order to express her reluctance to separate her family, so it is called a crying wedding song." The crying wedding song is very beautiful, and when I was young, I once heard a neighbor's aunt hum it. But listen to that aunt. At that time, it was really hard to sing, and the night before the wedding, I had to sing all night. Even if your voice is hoarse, you have to keep singing.

The lyrics have reviews and wishes, mostly to express the girl's gratitude for the kindness of her parents and parting before marriage, and a large part of it is about filial piety to her in-laws, respect for her husband and children, and beautiful hopes for her future life. The lyrics are elegant, and the scene is orderly. When happy, the brisk rhythm and dancing melody are accompanied by beautiful sentences, vividly expressing the girl's beautiful vision for the future. When expressive, it may be high-pitched and melodious. or affectionate and euphemistic, the slow rhythm and soft tone contain the girl's deep love. ”

When Lin Qingxia heard this, she was moved by the beautiful scene. Said: "What a beautiful custom! The mainland of the motherland is really a vast land with a variety of customs and scenery. But husband, I found that you really know a lot! ”

Looking at Lin Qingxia's admiring and adoring gaze, Yan Qingyu enjoyed it extremely much. Haha laughed and said: "Qingxia, this shows a truth." Not having a diploma does not mean not reading, and the so-called open book is beneficial. Even if you only read idle books, if you can get some useful knowledge from them, that's good. Okay, let's go home and talk about these words, you pick the book first. Otherwise, Grandma will be in a hurry. ”

"Ahh With an exclamation, Lin Qingxia looked at the old grandmother apologetically and apologized: "Grandma, I'm sorry, I forgot that this is in the book house." ”

The old grandmother looked at Lin Qingxia with a smile and said, "Sister Yan, with such a handsome husband, it is difficult to forget where JΓ¬ is." It doesn't matter, it's more enjoyable than watching Huangmei Opera! ”

Yan Qingyu laughed and said: "Grandma, my wife wants to sing, but she is even better than a real female concubine!" ”

The old grandmother looked at Yan Qingyu in surprise and said, "Boy, do you still know?" ”

Yan Qingyu smiled: "Grandma, if you are willing to let Qingxia pick a few old books for free, I will sing a paragraph to you, how about it?" ”

The old grandmother was pleasantly surprised: "Okay, good, no problem!" I was bored to spend the New Year at home alone, so I came out to set up an old book store, not trying to make money, just looking for something to do. If you can sing it to me, then your aunt can pick the books in this room. ”

Yan Qingyu looked at Lin Qingxia, who was also looking at him expectantly, and said, "Okay, then I'll sing it to Grandma, how about it?" ”

The old grandmother was really surprised and was about to faint, since she came to Taiwan in the thirty-eighth year of the Republic of China, that is, in the forty-ninth year, she has never been able to listen to the authentic Huangmei tune. Originally, some of the Hubei people who came to Taiwan with Lao Jiang could sing the Huangmei tone, and the Huangmei opera movie was once popular in Hong Kong. Even Teresa Teng can sing a few words of Huangmei dialect.

It's just that the Huangmei accent in these Huangmei operas is getting weaker and weaker......

And Yan Qingyu, who met today, actually knew Enshi, knew about crying and marrying, and knew that the old grandmother was excited and full of expectations.

The old grandmother opened her mouth, which was missing most of her teeth, laughed and applauded, "Good, good, good, I like to listen to this paragraph the most!" ”

Yan Qingyu looked at Lin Qingxia with a face full of surprise again, and smiled with satisfaction in her heart, she smiled for Bo Jiaren, what about singing a play?

He said "uh-huh" twice, and then opened his mouth to sing:

"In order to save Li Lang from his homeland,

Who expected to be the champion in the emperor list,

The champion is wearing a red robe,

The hat is good for the palace flower,

It's so fresh!

I have also been to the Qionglin feast,

I also beat the horse in front of the street,

Everyone praises me Pan Anxiang,

It turns out that the gauze hat is photographed,

Zhao Chanjuan!

……”

The old lady burst into tears with excitement, and kept humming along with vague sentences, until Yan Qingyu sang back twice when she came out, and the old lady took out a handkerchief, wiped away the tears on her face, and then laughed and applauded like a child.

"Grandma, it's still good for you to sing well!"

Lin Qingxia said to the old grandmother with a smile.

The old grandmother waved her hand a little shyly and smiled: "No, no." Now my teeth are about to fall out, my speech is leaking, and I still sing. But when I was your age, I liked to sing Huangmei Opera the most. Apart from. Nice to listen to! ”

Looking at the old grandmother who smiled very pure and kind, Lin Qingxia couldn't help but ask, "Grandma, where is Grandpa?" And your children? ”

The smile on the old grandmother's face suddenly froze when she heard this, her eyes became confused, and she murmured:

"When I was a kid.

Nostalgia is a small stamp,

I'm on this end,

Mother is over there.

……

Later,

Homesickness is a low grave,

I'm out there,

Mother is inside.

And now,

Homesickness is a shallow strait,

I'm on this end,

They're on that end. ”

In the poems in the afterglow. The last sentence is not "they are on that side", but "the mainland is on that side".

Yan Qingyu took Lin Qingxia's hand, and did not alarm the old woman who fell into endless good memories with a smile on the corner of her mouth. The two left quietly.

After going out, Lin Qingxia said very sadly: "Husband, it's all my fault, I shouldn't ask my grandma." ”

Yan Qingyu said softly: "Grandma won't blame you. I think today must be Grandma's happiest day of the year. Didn't you notice that Grandma had a happy smile on the corner of her mouth? Sometimes. Concern and longing are bitter, but there is also a longing thought to support people to live. ”

Lin Qingxia shook her head and said, "But why is my heart so sad? ”

Yan Qingyu comforted: "That's because my baby is too kind-hearted. You can't bear to see Grandma lonely, and you can't bear to see her bleak old age. ”

Lin Qingxia suddenly paused, looked at Yan Qingyu seriously with a pair of clear eyes, and said, "Husband, you said that the shares in the world's cinema chain are counted in my name, is it true?" ”

Yan Qingyu was stunned when she heard this, and then smiled: "Of course it's true, how can I lie to you?" ”

Lin Qingxia puffed up her face and courage, and said, "Husband, I want to use the annual income of the shares in my name to do good deeds, help old people like Grandma, and let them spend their old age safely and happily." ”

After that, Lin Qingxia looked at Yan Qingyu with some uneasiness, she knew what a big amount it was, more than 100 million Hong Kong dollars.

Yan Qingyu looked at Lin Qingxia who looked worried, couldn't help but reach out and rub her hair, and said with a smile: "Fool, what you want to do is a good thing, how can I not support it?" Our family is not a miser, as long as the money is spent meaningfully, then there is no need to be stingy. ”

Lin Qingxia happily tiptoed and kissed Yan Qingyu's face, and said with a smile like a flower: "Husband, you are really good!" ”

Yan Qingyu smiled: "But I have a better opinion, do you want to hear it." ”

Lin Qingxia looked at Yan Qingyu and said, "You say! ”

Yan Qingyu said: "The 100 theaters under the Tianxia Cinema Line are currently being renovated and renovated. For example, the profits generated by the theater chain today are basically taken in. So if you're counting on this year's dividends to do this, you might be disappointed. ”

Sure enough, Lin Qingxia's face was obviously disappointed when she heard this, but she didn't rush to complain, because she knew that Yan Qingyu would not sit idly by. Just looked up at Yan Qingyu with a beautiful face and looked at Yan Qingyu quietly with a pair of clear eyes like water.

Seeing this, Yan Qingyu couldn't help but laugh and said, "You are the smartest!" ”

As he spoke, Yan Qingyu took the cunning and fun-stealing Lin Qingxia into his arms, and said while continuing to walk forward: "In the future, the family's annual income will increase year by year, and in addition to career development, there will also be a lot of surplus funds." I think that these funds can be used to purchase Chinese cultural relics and antiques scattered abroad, and can also be used as a private charity fund. It specializes in helping the lonely, widowed, weak, sick and disabled in Chinese areas, as well as education and medical care. When I go back, I can allocate 100 million yuan to set up the Yan's Charity Fund. ”

Lin Qingxia was surprised: "Husband, are you only helping Chinese?" ”

Yan Qingyu nodded and said, "At least that's the case so far." ”

Lin Qingxia said: "But I heard that the donations of those rich people in Europe and the United States are all for the world!" ”

Yan Qingyu sneered: "When did you hear that the rich people in Europe and the United States donated money and goods to the poor Chinese on the mainland?" Fools, in the eyes of those white people, all colored people are inferior, and especially the Chinese. Not to mention the mainland, even the Chinese in Hong Kong and Taiwan, there are countless people who have suffered from poverty and suffering, and I don't know what to say about those who donate kind money to European and American countries. ”
