Chapter 22: Family Gatherings

It is already visible to report to Shanghai University, and it is necessary to talk about the first pot of gold earned after the return of life. This small 100,000 yuan did not make Qi Ming feel too much happiness and joy, although the whole process was in his own calculations, but it can also be described as twists and turns.

Before leaving, Qi Daxun took Qi Ming to a trip to his relatives, went to an old house in the western suburbs, and found a restaurant with his grandparents, uncles and two aunts, and sat down to have a meal together, and the atmosphere was normal.

Originally, he found an excuse for Qi Ming to go to college and gathered a family to eat together, after all, Qi Ming was the first college student in the old Qi family.

If you want to say that you don't look at relatives, there is really a difference between distant and close,

Although the uncle is the eldest son, he doesn't have much ability. It's impossible to work part-time, and it's not possible to do business. I can only charter an activity room for the elderly in the family courtyard, and earn a couple of jujubes from the old man's and wife's vegetable basket. His son is a hob meat, belongs to the kind of people who can't read books, went to the railway police academy, and has not had a decent and stable job since graduation.

The best relationship with Qi Daxun is still the eldest sister, that is, the eldest aunt who loves Qi Ming the most.

has loved Qi Ming since he was a child, but he is not doting, but often buys books for Qi Ming.

From the most basic "Hundred Family Names" and "Three Character Classic", and then to the later, "Zizhi Tongjian", "Three Kingdoms" and Chinese and foreign masterpieces, Qi Ming's habit of liking to read books in later generations was also developed at this time.

Otherwise, relying on Qi Daxun's knowledge and awareness, it would be difficult for Qi Ming to have his own golden house in the book.

It's just that my aunt's life is not very good, her husband died suddenly a few years ago, and she is an only child who studied in the university of Sanzhen City, and she has long gone to the deep sea to develop, and she can't come back a few times a year.

In later generations, Qi Daxun's business failed, and his aunt really helped him.

Speaking of which, this meal is neither salty nor light, except for a few words when Qi Ming's aunt soured his mother Dai Lijuan in the middle of eating, most of the others still wish Qi Ming to succeed in his studies in the future.

It's grandma, who can't do without how likable her little grandson is, and after eating, she also sealed a red envelope for Qi Ming.

Qi Daxun didn't plan to ask for it in his heart, but he couldn't stand it, and the old lady insisted on stuffing it into Qi Ming's arms.

After that meal, Qi Daxun originally planned to take Qi Ming to his grandmother's house in two days.

As a result, I didn't expect that early the next morning, there was a knock on the door of the Qi family.

Qi Ming's grandmother, brother-in-law and aunt, a large family came with big bags and small bags.

"Mom, Daxun said yesterday that he would take the time to go back in the next few days." Dai Lijuan looked at the big bags and small bags full of hard goods, and couldn't help but feel a little guilty.

As soon as the old lady entered the door, she didn't pay attention to her daughter, looked at Qi Ming with kind eyes, stretched out her hand towards Qi Ming, and said, "Oh, the little giant (little ghost) is going to college." When Allah was three years old, he knew that the little giant would have a future in the future. ”

In the sixties, Qi Ming's grandfather participated in the construction of the Zhongzhou Cotton Spinning Factory, and brought a large family from Shanghai to Zhongzhou.

After Qi Ming's full moon, Dai Lijuan was going to take it home, but the old lady was reluctant, saying that she would take her to kindergarten at the age of three, so before the age of three, Qi Ming had been living at her grandmother's house.

Even if she went to kindergarten and elementary school later, the old lady had to ask Dai Lijuan to send Qi Ming back once every other week, and occasionally took the time to take the bus to the school to have a look.

This is true joy and true doting.

Grandma asked Qi Ming's aunt to hand over the thermos box as she spoke, and the moment she unscrewed the lid, the aroma overflowed.

"The little giant's favorite food is inside, shutter buns, braised pork ribs, and white-cut chicken." As she spoke, the old lady held Qi Ming's hand tightly, unwilling to let go for a long time.

"A few days ago, your uncles and aunts called me and asked when you were going to arrange for someone to pick you up at the station. I said that the little giant Allah has a very bright head since he was a child, and he doesn't need to be taken care of, and he will go to see you when he settles down. Grandma said as she pulled Qi Ming to sit on the sofa.

Qi Ming smiled, he was used to his grandmother's concern, and while listening to the old lady's chatter, he peeled a lychee and sent it to his grandmother's mouth, "Grandma don't worry, when you go to Shanghai and settle down, I will make more strings for you." ”

In fact, this is not the first time Qi Ming has gone to Shanghai, his grandmother took him once when he was four years old, but it was fashionable and young, and his memory has long been blurred.

I only remember that my grandmother has not been back to Shanghai for many years, the change is too great, the old lady is also inexplicably confident, no one said, the phone did not make a call, alone with Qi Ming, after several tosses and turns, finally arrived in Yangpu, but because the change is too great, I can't find the old house in the past and get lost.

Qi Ming later heard that he was still having a fever at that time, and his grandmother was sitting on the flower bed crying, crying more fiercely than herself.

Thinking about this, reliving his life, and holding his grandmother's hand again, Qi Ming couldn't help but sigh in his heart. The feelings of the two lives in my heart are mixed together at this moment, and then I think of my grandmother who is seriously ill in the next life, but I can't help but feel sour.

Qi Ming knew that there were some things, even if he lived again, he couldn't reverse it, so he could only seize the time as much as possible.

So he smiled and said, "Grandma, I want to eat the fried steamed buns you made, this thing has to be eaten freshly baked, why don't I go back to the old house on Xiangrong Street with you tonight?" ”

Like fried noodles, it is difficult to eat when you get out of Sijiu City, and the same is true for raw fried steamed buns, and that night with a small wonton in chicken soup, Qi Ming ate a big pot in one go.

After eating, he said that he had eaten too much and wanted to eat, so he rushed to wash the dishes and chopsticks from his aunt's hand.

I was busy until eight or nine o'clock, and the old lady also sat on the sofa and watched the news broadcast and the weather forecast.

Qi Ming pushed a disc of Yue Opera "Dream of Red Mansions" into the VCD machine, and listened to his grandmother babbling and singing: Sister Lin fell from the sky, and Qi Ming played a beat that was not in tune on the side.

Qi Ming didn't have the habit of going to bed early, so he and his uncle killed a few more games of chess in the living room.

The little uncle has no big skills, he has stayed in a state-owned enterprise all his life, he has no ambition, and he has no career.

If you want to talk about characteristics, it is only in your twenties that you have no hair left.

This is also what Qi Ming is worried about, after all, they all say that the nephew is like an uncle.

"When you were a child, your stomach was not good, your grandmother made up too much when your mother was confined, adults can digest it, you were just born at that time, how to digest, vomiting and diarrhea for several days, the doctor almost felt that you were going to die." Uncle Dai Weidong smoked a cigarette and said with a smile, "That frightened your grandfather, seeing that you slept for several days without opening your eyes, and secretly wiped your tears in the hut by yourself." Later, I found out that it was indigestion, and my eyes regained my light within a few days of taking the digesting tablets. ”

Saying that, he arched a pawn to cross the river: "You kid has the delicate mind of your mother, but the heart is like your father." Your grandfather had a stroke and couldn't move half of his body, and you were only seven or eight years old at the time, holding half a watermelon bigger than your head, and feeding him spoonful by spoon by the bedside. ”

Qi Ming didn't say anything, just smiled and put the car on the Chu River Han Realm.

"In the blink of an eye, I took you to the Cultural Palace to fish when I was a child, and until now, your kid is already going to college," Dai Weidong touched his bare head, "When you are alone when you go out, it is always right to think about anything when you encounter it." If there is a suitable little girl, try to take it home, and also let our old Eight Immortals table have more pairs of chopsticks, and it doesn't matter if you talk about friends before graduation, but you must pay attention to safety. ”
