The weather is clear and the wind is smooth.

As soon as Mengshu got out of the car, Yi Zhan's grandmother took her hand affectionately and said with a smile in Lanxian dialect: "Xiaomeng, my wife and I are really happy to see you and Xiaozhan come back together." ”

Yi Zhan's grandparents wore plain clothes and cloth shoes, and although their silver hair was like snow, their faces were ruddy and their spirits were strong. The two old men were in good health, and Mengshu felt an indescribable happiness in his heart.

Yi Zhan's grandmother gently stroked Meng Shu's hand with a hand full of traces of time, making Meng Shu feel the urge to burst into tears. Her father lost his parents when she was two years old, and she never saw her grandparents, even her grandparents a few times.

This feeling of being sincerely greeted by the kind elders is really warm.

"Grandparents, Happy National Day." Meng Shu also smiled and said happy holidays in Lanxian dialect, trying not to let himself cry.

Yi Zhan took the gift that Meng Shu had prepared for his grandparents from the trunk of the car, but found that there was no longer any room for him to interject, so he had to stride to Yi Lanxi's side and spread his arms, "Sister Lanxi, happy National Day, you are getting more and more beautiful!" ”

Yi Lanxi put his hand in the pocket of his pants and motioned for him to put it down with his eyes.

Yi Zhan touched his nose stupidly.

Seeing that grandma was chatting happily with the girlfriend Yi Zhan brought back, she rubbed Yi Zhan's arm with her shoulder.

"Alas, stinky boy, you have a pretty good eye."

"No, who am my cousin?"

Yi Lanxi shook his head, "Come on, from childhood to adulthood, you can also do this comfortably." ”

Yi Zhan smiled.

In the stage of abundant childhood shadows, this cousin of his left a lot of deep impressions on him, so much so that now, he still does not dare to make a mistake in front of Yi Lanxi.

"Sister Lanxi, later, for the sake of your grandparents, save a little face for your good cousin, and let them go with the wind for the stupid things I did before."

Yi Lanxi nodded, "Don't worry, you have only brought one girlfriend home for so many years, and you must have been carefully selected." This girlfriend of yours understands our etiquette here, and it feels good to me. Moreover, your clothes are much better than before, and you are more energetic than before. Grandparents like her so much, I'll help you keep people. ”

"Thank you, Sister Lanxi, you are not only beautiful but also beautiful."

Yi Lanxi shook his head, "Just say these words to your girlfriend, I'll forget it here." ”

"I'm telling the truth."

Yi Lanxi glanced at his watch, stepped forward, and stretched out his right hand to Meng Shu, "Hello, I'm Yi Lanxi, Yi Zhan's cousin." ”

Meng Shu nodded slightly, smiled and stretched out his slightly trembling right hand, "Hello Sister Lanxi, I'm Xia Mengshu." ”

Meng Shu looked at Yi Lanxi without a trace, she had a neat short haircut, her facial features were five points similar to Yi Zhan, her skin was about the same as hers, and her smile revealed a unique calmness and ability.

"Come sit in the house, it's almost ten o'clock, and the parade is about to begin."

"Oh, Xiaomeng, let's go into the house and sit down, and let's go to watch the National Day military parade together."

"Okay grandma."

Yi Zhan's grandparents' house is next to a dishwashing pond, sitting in a single-door double-storey courtyard facing north and south, a real green tile and red brick house. The door on the first floor is four wooden doors, the middle two doors are pasted with Qin Shubao and Wei Chigong, and three red paper-cuts on the door frame are pasted on the door frame. The three rooms on the second floor have single doors and windows, and the doors and windows are also framed by wood, and there are several beds of cotton wool on the bluestone railing next to the hallway.

There was a well in the front yard, and the mouth of the well made of bluestone was covered with moss. Not far from the well are planted three orange trees and a date tree, on which are full of fruit, and under the trees are flower cats and chickens pecking at millet. The backyard is a vegetable garden, the soil is dark, and all kinds of vegetables are growing well.

As soon as Meng Shu walked into the yard, several mournful goose cries resounded in the sky, the flower cat opened its eyes, and the chickens slowed down their eating.

Three big white geese with their necks stretched out of the grass came out, and they rushed towards Mengshu with a fierce attitude, and Yi Zhan and Yi Lanxi immediately protected her behind them.

Yi Zhan roared at the three geese: "Big white, two white, three white, hurry up and go back to me, and call again, I will stew you all this year." ”

However, the geese did not understand human speech and still cried out in protest against the intruders.

Yi Zhan stared at the three geese with wide eyes, expressing great displeasure, and everyone laughed.

"Little dream, I'm sorry, I scared you."

Meng Shu smiled and said, "No, I saw geese when I was a child." ”

The goose, a territorial-minded animal, left a lot of childhood shadows on Mengshu, and when she was six years old, she was chased by a big goose and ran a few hundred meters.

Yi Zhan's grandfather still had a way, and after a few calls, the three geese slowly swayed into the grass.

Walking into the house, a two-meter-long hanging statue of Chairman Dongfang Hong first caught Mengshu's eyes, and her family used to have exactly the same hanging statue!

Although there were a few cracks in the concrete floor under his feet, and the white lime on the walls was also a little peeling, the entire main hall gave Meng Shu a clean and generous feeling.

Yi Zhan put a few gift boxes on the large round dining table, "Grandma, this is the pastry that Mengshu made for you; Grandpa, this is the rice wine that Mengshu made for you. ”

"Xiaomeng, when you come to grandma's house, my wife and I will be very happy, and we don't have to bring so many gifts."

"It should."

"The mooncakes that Xiaozhan sent us during the Mid-Autumn Festival last time were also made by you."

Meng Shu smiled and shook his head, "Most of them are made by Ah Zhan. ”

Yi Zhan looked at Yi Lanxi proudly.

Yi Zhan's grandfather smiled and said, "Girl, you are so good at speaking for him, it should be impossible to make such a delicate snack only by relying on the words of this grandson of mine." ”

Yi Lanxi laughed.

Yi Zhan tried his best to defend himself: "Alas, grandpa, I also played a vital role, okay?" ”

"Okay, let's go sit in the room."

The room in Grandpa Yizhan's mouth is actually a place used to entertain guests in the countryside, that is, the living room. Sofas, coffee tables, tables, and cabinets are all made of jujube wood. The only thing that is a little out of place with the quaint atmosphere of this living room is the LCD TV that is more than 1.5 meters long near the wall, and the TV is showing a panoramic view of Chang'an Avenue.

Meng Shu sat in the middle of the sofa, and the coffee table in front of him was full of fresh melons and fruits in season in Lanxian County. Although Grandma Yi Zhan looked at her with satisfaction, Yi Zhan was not in this room, and Meng Shu still couldn't help but be a little restless.

Yi Zhan's grandmother saw her thoughts, "Xiao Zhan was born with a pair of fire feet, and when she gets home, she will be drenched with well water, and she will come back soon." ”

Meng Shu smiled and nodded, silently breathing a sigh of relief in his heart.

Yi Lanxi walked over with a tray holding a few cups of steaming tea, "Taste, this year's new tea in the garden." ”

"Thank you, Sister Lanxi." Meng Shu took a cup of tea and took a sip of it.

The host announced the official start of the celebration ceremony for the 70th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China, and after the salute inlaid with the national emblem was fired 70 times, Yi Zhan also ran into the house with slippers.

With a sense of pride and belonging, the men, women and children in the room looked at the rising five-star red flag with full attention, and unconsciously sang the majestic national anthem in their mouths.

"Arise, ...... you who do not want to be slaves"

When the five-star red flag rose to the top, Meng Shu saw a crystal and hot teardrop fall from Yi Zhan's grandfather's face.

Yi Zhan wiped the water on his feet with a towel and asked with a smile, "Sister Lanxi, how long will Yi Chen appear?" ”

Yi Lanxi hesitated for a second, then smiled and said, "It's still early, don't worry." He is in the scientific research team of the university, and with his appearance and height, it is impossible to be without a camera. ”

Half an hour later, Yi Zhan exclaimed, "Look, Yi Chen!" Yi Chen! ”

In fact, there is no need for Yi Zhan's exaggerated and excited shouting, when the host said, "It's the scientific research team of the university that is coming over now", the whole room was staring at the TV screen tightly.

Meng Shu recognized Yi Chen, who looked quite similar to Yi Zhan, at a glance. As Yi Lanxi said, he has a three-second shot, standing at the head of the team, holding his head high, his air is magnificent, his eyes are firm, and he is upright.

Seeing big tears pouring out of Grandma Yi's eyes, Meng Shu comforted her softly: "Grandma, Yi Chen is very good, we should be happy for him." ”

"Yes! Yi Chen, this kid is very good. Yi Zhan's grandmother wiped a handful of tears, "It's just like his parents, they rarely come back." ”

Meng Shu didn't know how to continue, so he had to cast a look at Yi Zhan for help.

"Grandma, when Yi Chen has time after being reviewed, he will definitely be the first to video with us."

"Hmm." Yi Zhan's grandmother smiled and nodded, "This year, you can be regarded as bringing Xiaomeng home, my wife and I are really happy." ”

Meng Shu had heard this sentence no less than five times, and she secretly made up her mind in her heart that she would take more time out to come back to see Yi Zhan's grandparents in the future.

After quietly watching the parade, Yi Lanxi got up and patted Yi Zhan's shoulder, "Come and light a fire for me." ”

"Okay."

Seeing that Meng Shu was about to move, Yi Zhan's grandmother smiled and said, "Your skills are very good, but today you are a guest, let Xiaozhan and Xiaoxi do the cooking." Talk to grandma here, okay? ”

Meng Shu nodded.

"Xiaomeng, I haven't heard from you all these years, where have you been?"

"After the college entrance examination, I went to Qi County to repeat my studies for a year, and then went to Beijing to study as a teacher, and just went to Seoul No. 2 Middle School to become a teacher this year."

The two old men nodded their heads.

Yi Zhan's grandfather asked, "Girl, what subjects do you teach?" ”

"I teach math."

"Are the students naughty?" Yi Zhan's grandmother looked at her with a sincere and kind smile.

"Quite sensible, they are all high school students, and they also know the importance of studying."

"That's good, Xiao Zhan didn't be very obedient when he was a teenager, and he caused a lot of trouble for your homeroom teacher."

Meng Shu finally couldn't hold back a smile, "Of course, when the time is right, we as teachers still have to remind the students." ”

"Let's eat an orange."

Mengshu took the orange, "Thank you, grandma." ”

"Grandma, thank you so much! Xiao Zhan came back this time, with some flesh on her face, and her spirit was much better than before. It's definitely to your credit. ”

Being praised by the elders like this, Meng Shu blushed a little, "Grandma, how can I be, Yi Zhan also takes care of me." ”

"That's a good idea. However, if he dares to bully you, you tell your grandmother, and your grandmother will teach him a lesson. ”

Mengshu could feel that Yi Zhan's grandparents were two kind and kind old men who were carefully trying to maintain her self-esteem.

She also made up her mind in her heart. Meeting Yi Zhan and meeting his family is a redemption given to her by God, and she will cherish it.
