Chapter 412: Family
Chu Yongning gently patted Chu Yongqiang's shoulder and said, "Big brother, let's go in, don't let everyone wait!" ”
Chu Yongqiang smiled and said, "Yes, let's go in!" ”
After speaking, Chu Yongqiang held Chu Chen's hand tightly, turned around and walked towards the courtyard with him.
Chu Chen followed in, but when he saw the uncle turning his head, he quietly wiped the corners of his eyes, which made him feel very uncomfortable.
In this life, people will always hover between right and wrong, between good and bad, some things we only know the benefits of the Tao to ourselves at the time, but do not consider the impact later, and when we want to remedy it, it is too late, thus leaving a lifetime of regrets.
Uncle didn't suppress the greed in his heart at the beginning, which affected his life at the same time, but also made him suffer for so many years, which is not only a punishment for the uncle's wrong choice, but also his own lesson!
From this, Chu Chen thought that when he made decisions on major matters in the future, he must think clearly about the consequences arising from this, and he must not be confused by temporary interests, otherwise the conscience torment that the uncle has suffered over the years may also happen to him.
"Mom, why did you come out?"
Chu Chen followed into the courtyard gate, and heard Chu Yongqiang say in surprise, and then he was quickly pulled by Chu Yongqiang to an old lady.
At this time, the old lady was being supported by a woman of thirty-seven or eighteen years old, her sparse silver hair was white and shiny, and neatly combed to the back of her head, her face was full of wrinkles, and her complexion looked good. But the most eye-catching thing is her bright eyes.
The old lady saw Chu Chen coming. hurriedly walked to Chu Chen and followed, and the people around him were terrified.
"It's fine. I'm not a child, but I'm nimble! ”
The old lady insisted on not being supported by others, and then took Chu Chen's hand and looked at it for a while, muttering to herself while watching: "My little treasure is finally back, but I miss my grandmother!" ”
As she spoke, tears could not help but flow from the old lady's eyes.
Chu Chen hurriedly persuaded: "Grandma doesn't cry, I will never leave in the future!" ”
As he spoke, he remembered the picture he remembered playing with his grandmother, although the picture was a little blurry. But the grandmother in the picture doesn't look so old, and when he thinks of this, he can't help but have some tears in his eyes.
The old lady wiped away her tears, smiled and nodded, "Okay!" Let's not cry, Xiaobao, how have you been doing all these years! ”
"Grandma, I'm doing well, otherwise how could I have grown so tall!" Chu Chen said with a smile.
Actually, when Chu Chen came to the capital. He is only more than 1.60 meters tall, and he looks relatively thin, which is partly due to the impact of the death of his adoptive father, and the most important thing is that the nutrition in the mountains cannot keep up.
Later, he came to the capital. At the beginning, Uncle Wu kept asking Aunt Wu to cook food for him, and later the nutrition kept up. He started to grow like crazy, otherwise he would have been in the mountains. Although it is not too short, it will definitely not grow at 1.8 meters.
Listen to Chu Chen say this. The old lady felt that it was reasonable, so she said to the others: "There is a way that is the grace of a drop of water, when the spring reciprocates, although Xiaobao's adoptive father is no longer there, but you must take the time to worship him as soon as possible, we can't do anything else, do your best that is what you should." ”
"Grandma, the road is still being built over there, so let's wait until it's finished!" Chu Chen hurriedly said.
The old lady shook her head and said, "It's not a deep mountain and an old forest, so what does it matter if you build a road." ”
"Mom, Chu Chen's adoptive father's house is in the mountainous area of Yan Province." Chu Yongning took over and said.
"Ahh The old lady was taken aback when she heard this, and then took Chu Chen's hand with a distressed face and said, "I also know the situation over there, it's good to eat two meals a day, and you still say that you haven't suffered anything?" ”
Chu Chen said with a pleasant face: "Grandma, I really didn't suffer much when I was a child, and if there are any good things at home, let me eat them first." ”
The old lady said with a face full of disbelief: "You, don't comfort me, is your adoptive father's family just a child?" ”
"It's really just me ......" Speaking of this, Chu Chen hurriedly briefly explained the situation of his adoptive father's family.
After listening to Chu Chen's account, the old lady sighed and said, "They are all hard-working people!" ”
At this time, Chu Yongqiang opened his mouth and said, "Mom, let's go back first, don't let Dad wait for a long time!" ”
After all, the old lady is old, and she is usually not in good health, and after standing for such a long time, everyone around her is a little worried.
"Humph! Let him wait more, back then, ......" The old lady said this, remembering that her precious grandson was still beside her, and she was afraid that if she said too much, it would cause him to be disgusted, so she hurriedly shut up. However, looking at the indignant look on her face, it is estimated that she is still haunted by the original incident.
Chu Chen was relieved: "Grandma, it's been so long since things happened back then, let's stop thinking about it, anyway, things are already like that, thinking about these unhappy things is not good for your health, I still want you to live a long life!" ”
"Yes, yes, yes! Let's not think about him from now on! The old lady nodded happily and said, "I still want to hold my little baby's child!" ”
Seeing this situation, everyone smiled, Chu Chen scratched his head, and felt a little embarrassed.
With Chu Chen's support, the old lady walked into the house with the others, during which Chu Yongqiang introduced a man and a woman who were standing beside the old lady just now to Chu Chen, who were his second uncle Chu Yongping and sister-in-law Chu Yongli.
Greeting respectfully, Chu Chen noticed that although the appearance of the second uncle and sister-in-law was somewhat similar to that of the uncle and father, they were generally more like grandmothers, with big eyes and high noses, and they were all very handsome men and women when they were young.
The second uncle is very well maintained, a person in his forties, he still looks only thirty-seven or eighteen, and the sister-in-law is much worse, although she is dressed beautifully, but there are already many wrinkles at the corners of her eyes, and her black hair has been mixed with some silver threads, and she is only thirty-six years old, but she looks like she has entered middle age.
Seeing this situation, Chu Chen couldn't help but sigh lightly in his heart, as the saying goes, love is deeply responsible, and the relationship between grandpa and uncle and sister-in-law's family is so stiff, in fact, it is not a manifestation of loving and caring for sister-in-law!
Walking into the living room, Chu Chen saw his aunt, aunt and the younger generation, many people were sitting on the sofa, and on the main seat sat an old man with a slightly fat figure.
The old man is not tall, his sparse hair is gray but also neatly arranged, his two slightly sunken eyes, deep and bright, he looks very spirited, and his weather-ridden face is engraved with wrinkles left by the years, which looks no different from ordinary old people, but there is a momentum on his body that is not angry and arrogant.
Seeing the group walk in, all the people in the room got up from the sofa, and the old man trembled and wanted to stand up.
Seeing this, Chu Yongqiang hurriedly stepped forward, helped the old man and said, "Dad, your leg is not good, let's sit!" ”
The old man shook his hand and said stubbornly: "I can still walk, I don't need you to help me!" ……”
At the same time, Chu Yongning explained softly: "Your grandfather suffered a gunshot wound to his left leg when he was young, and the conditions at that time were not good, and it became an old injury. ”
Looking at the old man who insisted on standing up, Chu Chen's heart was full of mixed feelings, very unpleasant, although the main reason at the beginning was that the uncle made a mistake, but in his heart he always felt that the old man who cared for him at the beginning, but made such a decision was the culprit. Therefore, he has never had much affection for the old man in his heart.
But now that they met, Chu Chen found that after all, he had the blood of the family flowing in his body, and his grandfather was already an old man who was already old and sick, and he really couldn't get angry with him. For such an old man, how can he bear to be angry with him, do you still want him to take his regrets underground?
In that case, let it go!
When he let go of the thoughts, Chu Chen suddenly felt that there was an ethereal feeling filling his whole body, all the troubles and sorrows ran away without a trace, at this moment, the world is himself, he is the world world, the feeling is wonderful and indescribable.
Time seemed to have passed for a long time, but when Chu Chen woke up, he found that time had only passed for a moment, and the most intuitive feeling that that state had brought him just now was that the speed of the internal qi in his body was actually thirty percent faster because of this.
Although Chu Chen really wanted to study the impact of that state on him just now, this kind of environment was not the time to study this.
Chu Chen saw that the old man stubbornly wanted to walk up to him, so he hurriedly stepped forward and said, "You should sit down, rest more, your legs will be better!" ”
"Good! Good! The old man grabbed Chu Chen's hand and looked at it carefully, but he couldn't say anything about the thousands of words in his heart.
The people around them were all relieved when they saw the performance of their ancestors and grandchildren, they were really afraid that Chu Chen would not be able to figure it out and do something that would make the old man sad.
"Old man, don't you sit down yet, are you still going to let everyone stand like this?" The old lady said angrily.
The old man hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Yes, yes, yes!" Everyone sit down, and Xiao Bao will sit next to me! ”
Looking at the old man's expectant eyes, coupled with his previous decision, Chu Chen responded with a smile, which couldn't help but make the old man smile happily.
At this time, everyone suddenly heard the doorbell ring, and after a while, they heard a loud voice coming from the courtyard.
"Yun Lin! Where's my grandson? ”
Then, everyone saw an old man in his seventies and eighties wearing a tunic walk in. Although the old man's hair was gray, and his face was also full of wrinkles, his waist was still straight, and at such a young age, he walked briskly and powerfully...... (To be continued......)
