Chapter 13: The First Anniversary
In the past few days of the summer camp, everyone is very tired every day, but even if they are tired, when the day it ends, everyone is still reluctant.
Almost everyone met new friends, and on the car home, everyone was showing off the souvenirs, commemorative coins and various food they bought, and kept each other's contact information. Although those phone numbers were sealed in the dust, everyone at that time still left the phone with the most sincere feelings, even if they never dialed.
There was no QQ number at that time, so Yu Nan told him his account and asked him to add him when he applied for an account in the future, and he would send all the photos to the space album and let him find it there in the future.
They got out of the car in the middle of the night, and they said goodbye early before going to bed. By the time Yu Nan and the others arrived home, it was already more than five o'clock in the morning, and the exit of the station was the same as when they left, and the parents were waiting there, and when they saw their children, their worried expressions turned into smiling faces.
Yu Nan and Yu Xiaoya's mother did not come, taking care of their young brother at home, and the two of them were sent back by Zou Wei's parents.
The day they went home was the 11th, Yu Nan and they arrived home, and after eating breakfast, they began to make up for sleep, and after waking up, they began to sort out the things they bought. The two of them said which ones were for Dad, which ones were for Mom, and some were for Little Brother, and when they got something for Wei Xiaoche, they dialed his phone:
"Hey, where are you?"
"It's still in Dingzhou! Are you back? ”
"Just came back this morning! What time are you coming back? ”
"I'll go back the day before school starts, on the 21st!"
"Then you send me the address of Dingzhou! I bought you something, I'll mail it to you! ”
"Just give it to me when school starts!"
"It's eaten, and it has a short shelf life! And one for your parents! Aren't your parents in Dingzhou? It's all broken when you come back! ”
"Thank you then!" When Wei Xiaoche heard that he had brought it to his parents, he suddenly felt warm in his heart, "You go to my house for my uncle and aunt!" They will come to Dingzhou in two days, let them bring it! ”
Yu Nan went to Aunt Wei Xiaoche's house that afternoon, and before he went, Wei Xiaoche called his aunt:
"Hey! Auntie, my classmate will go home in the afternoon and send me something, you can help me bring it in a few days! ”
"Okay! It's okay! Is there anything else you would like to bring? ”
"No...... Also, he brought it to my parents, he didn't know they had passed away, I hope you don't ......"
"Don't worry! Auntie has a number, she won't say it! Before Wei Xiaoche finished speaking, his aunt knew what he meant.
"I'm sorry for you! What time do you arrive? I'm going to pick you up! ”
"No need, your brother will pick us up then, you just wait for us at home!"
"Well, stay safe when you come!"
Yu Nan's movements were fast, and it didn't take long for him to deliver the specialty to Wei Xiaoche's house. When he arrived, he talked to Wei Xiaoche's aunt about what was for him, what was for his parents, and a bottle of wine that Wei Xiaoche asked him to buy. Uncle Wei Xiaoche occasionally drank a little wine, so before Yu Nan went, he asked him to bring a bottle of wine for him if he saw any wine.
"Uncle, this is the wine that Wei Xiaoche asked me to bring you, and the rest is his!"
"You brought me a bottle of wine! Excuse me! The uncle took the wine and looked at it, his eyes full of joy.
"It's okay! Just by the way! Yu Nan politely said, "That's nothing, uncle and aunt, I'll leave first!" ”
"Let's stay and finish eating before leaving!"
"No, my mom is ready at home! I'll go home! ”
"Okay, we won't keep you, and we'll have time to eat later! Stay safe when you go home! Thank you! As he spoke, he was about to go out to see him off.
"Good! When the time comes, try my aunt's craftsmanship, don't give it away, I'll go first! Yu Nan closed the door and went downstairs.
Uncle and aunt sent him away, I like this Yu Nan in my heart, and I think his personality is very good, which is complementary to Xiao Che's personality, "Xiao Che and him are good friends!" ”
Uncle and aunt took a bus to Dingzhou on the 13th, and when they arrived at Wei Xiaoche's house, Wei Xiaoche had already cooked the meal, and Wei Xiaolin also took two days off to prepare for Wei Xiaoche's parents' death day with them. On the 14th, my aunt accompanied Wei Xiaoche to the market during the day to buy fish, chickens, and some things that his parents liked to eat when they were alive, and some sacrificial things.
The first anniversary is a very important day, and many people said that Aunt Wei Xiaoche didn't understand it very well, so she asked a lot of people before she came, and wrote down everything that needed to be bought, precautions, etc., and took the piece of paper to buy it and crossed it out along the way.
After returning home in the evening and having dinner, Wei Xiaoche was in the kitchen dealing with the sacrifices to bring to his parents tomorrow, and his aunt was ironing his suit and shirt in the living room, because Wei Xiaoche said that he would make it for them personally, so his aunt never intervened, but occasionally came over to tell him what to do.
Wei Xiaoche opened the window, put the prepared offerings by the window to cool, and went to Yu Nan to take out some of the food he brought back and put it in a sealed box, and put together the snacks that his mother liked to eat before her death. After finishing it, after the aunt came over to make sure that nothing was missing, Wei Xiaoche put the dishes that were already cold by the window into the sealed jar. I put the flower wrapping paper I bought next to it.
Wei Xiaoche agreed with them to leave at six o'clock in the morning, Wei Xiaoche got up at five o'clock and started washing, he tidied up his hair well, put on the clothes that his aunt ironed for him last night, and asked when he went out:
"How's it going, is it okay?"
"Exceptional, handsome! They'll be happy to see it! ”
Wei Xiaoche himself was also very satisfied, took those sacrifices in the car, and set off, Wei Xiaoche found a large piece of Gesang flowers near the cemetery a few days ago, and went out early to go there to pick a bouquet of flowers for his mother.
The sea of Gesang flowers was very beautiful, Wei Xiaoche was picking flowers there alone, and the others were waiting for him in the car. When Wei Xiaoche picked enough bouquets, it was already half an hour later, and when Wei Xiaoche came over, he put all the flowers on the trunk of the car, began to trim the flowers to the same length, put the pruned ones aside and fixed them, and pruned the picked leaves to the same size, wrapped them on the outside of those flowers, and wrapped the wrapping paper he had prepared earlier, and tied the ribbon to it, and the action was extremely skillful.
Wei Xiaoche has been studying in a flower shop not far from home since the holiday, just to wrap this bouquet of Gesang flowers for his parents.
Since it was a suburb and there were no trash cans nearby, Wei Xiaoche put the garbage away and put it in the trunk after getting it done. The aunt tidied up his clothes, got rid of the ash and grass on them, and started the car and drove directly to the cemetery, the uncle and aunt watched Wei Xiaoche sitting in the co-pilot, occasionally talking to them, they all felt that he was much better this time than last time, and they were secretly happy in their hearts.
When they arrived at the destination, they took all the things they had prepared, Wei Xiaoche held the big bouquet of flowers, carried the lunch box in his right hand, and walked up from the corridor.
When he saw his parents, Wei Xiaoche swept away the dust on his parents' tombstones, wiped them all again, put the disposable dishes he bought in front of the tombstones, and put the sacrifices he made last night on them, and started the process according to what his aunt said.
When the incense burned out, the worship was over, Wei Xiaoche put the prepared bouquet of Gesang flowers in front of the tombstone, and the uncle, aunt and cousin said something in their hearts and left, leaving some time for Wei Xiaoche.
After they left, Wei Xiaoche sat directly next to the tombstone and talked to them:
"I personally prepared these foods for you, and I have learned to cook a lot of dishes recently, how about you try my skills? In this box, there are some favorite snacks for my mother, and there are some special products in the snacks, which are prepared by my new friends. As he spoke, he gestured to the plate containing the snacks as if his parents were right next to him.
"By the way, I'm studying in the high school you went to, and your son and I are very good at studying, and I take the first grade every time. I chose science like you, and my aunt told me that the teacher who teaches me physics now was also your physics teacher before, and we all thought that the teacher was average in class, did you think the same when you were in school? ”
"I didn't know many friends in school, but there was one that was quite special, the one who brought you special products, his name was Yu Nan. When I first met him, he was like a gangster, smoking and drinking. But you don't have to worry, he is very kind-hearted, he has now changed a lot of bad problems, he studies very hard, he has been admitted from the slow class to the second class, and he has great potential. ”
“...... I also met a girl, her name is Zou Wei. It's just that she doesn't know me, I met her several times, every time I meet her when I'm on my own, that girl was always alone before, and she had a big headset at that time, and she always felt that we were very similar at that time, and we were a little lonely! ”
Later, Yu Nan's sister turned around and was always with her, and now when I see her, she always talks and laughs. She looks good when she draws, and she looks good when she laughs! It's a little chubby, but it's cute, I could have had a chance to meet it before, but I missed it, so I always think there should be a chance in the future, right? ”
"My uncle and aunt treat me like a son, they are almost meticulous, and they cook in different ways every day. Last parent-teacher meeting, my aunt went for you. ”
Wei Xiaoche thought for a while and said: "The murderer appeared, but we didn't catch him, you can rest assured that I will protect myself, and I also hope that you are in the spirit of heaven, bless my uncle and aunt and the people around me can be safe, and bless us that we can catch him as soon as possible!" ”
"Also, I always have nightmares, if you don't have anything to do, come and wander around in my dreams! Chase them all away, like I did when I had nightmares when I was a kid. After speaking, Wei Xiaoche leaned his head against the tombstone, sat for a long time without speaking, and then stood up.
"Mom and Dad, I'm leaving, my uncle and aunt are still waiting for me below, I'll come next year, I'm going to take the university entrance exam next year, next time I come, I'll come with the admission letter to show you, you guys have to be good over there, Dad let Mom more, don't quarrel." See you next year! ”
