034 Dead wood, that spring
034 Deadwood, that spring
Little Noah is neither afraid of grandpa's iceberg aura, nor grandma's instructor's black face, nor afraid of great-grandpa's face, sitting on the lap of the old lady, she has a sweet lollipop in her mouth, and the only small paw that can move unceremoniously pulls the old lady's beard, and the old lady is twisted by the hideous twist of the painful face and happily stops Yang Suya from wanting to take back the unlucky child.
Great-grandfather's bandit temperament is difficult to change, so he loves children who are not afraid of heaven and earth, but unfortunately, the upbringing of the children of the family is too good, even Cheng Tianqi has an instinctive awe of the elders, so the old lady Cheng is reluctant to let go of the little Noah who does not know the height of the sky.
Seeing that they didn't seem to have anything to do, the twins decisively pulled Cheng Tianqi upstairs to find their uncles and aunts.
Since everyone arrived, Grandma Cheng led her daughters and daughters-in-law to make the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, while her sons and sons-in-law chatted with Grandpa Cheng in the living room, everyone is a high-level military department, although the military regions are different, but they have a common language, the bandit old lady who has been retired for many years feels very bored listening to those twists and turns, so he simply holds the little Noah Flash who also has no understanding, "Grandpa Tai will take you to see good things." β
Little Noah's bright eyes flickered, and he nodded busily, and Grandpa felt that he had been cured in an instant.
The old lady of the Qubei Military Region rarely comes back to live in this house, but the Qubei Military Region is his birthplace, so many valuable and meaningful things are left here, and special people are invited to clean and manage them.
Mrs. Cheng carried little Noah into the study, there were not many books in the study, but there were many old treasures in the rows of glass cabinets, Mrs. Cheng pointed to one of the old shell guns, and said, "This is the first gun used by grandpa, but unfortunately, it was accidentally blown up and damaged ......, this is the first pair of socks that your grandma embroidered for me, and the girls all embroidered handpana soles, she had to embroider socks......"
There are two twisted pigs with wings embroidered on the homespun socks, swollen and weird, but the old lady is full of smiles, the years have left a deep mark on his face, but it has also greatly enriched his memory, he held little Noah with one hand, pointed to a bullet in another glass cabinet, and said, "That's the bullet that grandpa took out when he was injured for the first time, tsk, it's been eighty years, and it can be an antique." β
Following these old antiques, Mrs. Cheng seems to have returned to the war-torn era, from bandits to officers, from officers to marshals, he lost as much as he gained, his parents, brothers and sisters, one by one left him, the huge Beijiang warlord Cheng family Zuihou was the only one left, but he still stood up on the enemy's corpse mountain and sea of blood, re-established the Cheng family, and established a great military might.
Mrs. Cheng fell into memories, this study is the holy place in his heart, every child of the Cheng family is required to remember every treasure in these glass cabinets, they represent not only the thrilling years of Mrs. Cheng, but also the history of the Cheng family, every Cheng family has the obligation to remember that everything they have today is the blood and life of their ancestors in exchange.
It is said that as an adopted daughter who is not related by blood, little Noah entered the door on the first day, no matter how to get the love of the elders, he is not qualified to enter this room, see these things, and listen to this history, after all, the two identities of "Cheng Guangming's daughter" and "the little lady of the family" are not so easy to draw an equal sign, but I don't know weishenme, the old lady Cheng just wants to take little Noah to take a look, maybe it is her clear eyes, The courage of the newborn calf who is not afraid of tigers reminds Old Lady Cheng of the girl who dared to rush into the encirclement of the enemy and dragged him out with only one breath left.
Inexplicably, the girl who stared at her with stubborn eyes overlapped with the small clear eyes in front of her......
Old lady Cheng suddenly shook her neck, looked at Little Noah's clear eyes and said sincerely, "...... Although your grandmother is very good, she is too cruel, Noah can't learn from her, otherwise you won't be able to find a man like your grandfather to marry you when you grow up. β
Little Noah nodded as if he didn't understand, and said inarticulate with a lollipop, "Noah is not cruel, Noah is a good boy." β
"Well, be good~~" Old lady Cheng hugged Noah's neck and kissed her white and tender bun face, and continued to take her to reminisce about the past.
Each item in the display case has its own story, except for the old lady Cheng, which is related to the old lady Cheng, but the latter is not much, except for the strange cloth baby embroidered with the weird flying pig, the rope used to tie the groom on the wedding night and other strange items, there is also a piece of dead wood.
The dead wood looks no thicker than an adult man's thumb, no more than a foot long, and the dead branches are charred black, and some dead leaves that are also charred and blackened as if they have been burned by fire are scattered on them, which looks dry and lifeless, but the old lady Cheng has the deepest feelings for it.
"Your grandmother's biggest wish in this life is to be able to go home, she said that as long as the dead branches bloom, she can find her way home, I worked hard to cultivate it, but unfortunately, let alone flowering, it has not even sprouted a sprout, hey~, this is the biggest regret in her life~!"
Old lady Cheng's murmuring voice was full of endless sorrow and desolation.
Little Noah tilted his head suspiciously, looking curiously at the dead branch in the glass case, inexplicably, his ears were a little tingling.
Little Noah couldn't help but touch the little earlobe, but the ear studs embedded in the earlobe were steaming with a scorching temperature, Little Noah scratched uncomfortably, and the old lady looked at her tangled facial expression puzzled, "What's wrong?" β
The earrings are inseparable from her because of Little Noah's soul contract, except for herself, no one else can see it at all, in the eyes of the old lady, Little Noah's ingot-like ears are smooth and white and tender, clean and soft, so he can't understand the reason why her earlobes are slightly red.
Little Noah thought about it, shook his head, and said that it was okay.
Old lady Cheng didn't care too much, crossed the dead branches, and continued to introduce the history of the Cheng family.
Old lady Cheng took Noah to remember the past when the sun went down, until he was looking for someone at dinner, Grandpa Cheng and they found out that Old Lady Cheng actually took Little Noah into the study, everyone's faces finally changed slightly, Old Lady Cheng brought Little Noah into the study, that is, he was telling them with actions that he had recognized the identity of Little Noah's daughter, since even the biggest ancestor had determined her status, what else did others have to say.
Therefore, from this moment on, regardless of whether he is related by blood or not, Little Noah will enjoy the same treatment as Cheng Tianqi Cheng Tian Cheng Tian.
Becoming a family is a military family, there are no complicated twists and turns like a wealthy family, and there is no so-called lineage, heirs and other entanglements, to what extent can they grow up in the future depends entirely on the child's own talent and efforts, as well as the education given by the parents, little Noah can get the favor of the old lady naturally has her unique place, although for her to be brought into the study by the old lady on the first day, the uncles and aunts are a little uncomfortable, after all, the blood in the veins of little Noah is not "married", but they will not think much about it, As soon as he turned his head, he began to discuss and excavate the shining points on Little Noah's body that made Old Lady Cheng value.
So in just a moment, everyone adjusted their mood, and the eldest aunt knocked on the door of the study with a smile, inviting an old man and a young man to dinner.
Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, eating is a big reunion, as long as the surname is "Cheng", even the baby must be on the table.
This also means that they truly accept that Noah is a Cheng family with the surname "Cheng".
It's just that no one noticed that after the old lady Cheng left the study with little Noah in her arms, the scorched black dead branches shook inexplicably, and a green sprout gradually stretched out from the branches, but it lost its vitality after a few seconds, scorched yellow, blackened, zuihou and other dead leaves merged into one, dead and lifeless, and the green of that bit seemed to have never appeared.
