"No, I can't sleep and get up." Willow Lotus Road.

This time, Liu Lianhua did not refuse Liu's request to help make breakfast, and the two sisters-in-law helped make breakfast.

It was dawning, and everyone else was up one after another.

Lin Xiaowan was not too sleepy, but when the sun came in, she woke up.

After combing her hair, Lin Xiaowan was still a little sleepy and went out of the house in a daze.

In the yard, Grandma Wang was sitting under the tree teasing her little grandson and playing with him, and Liu Cheng was amused by his grandmother and giggled.

Lin Zhen, Liu Yaozu, and Guo Chengling, the three big men, got together, and they didn't know what they were talking about.

It was the first time that Lin Xiaowan felt that she had gotten up early in the morning, and she felt like fireworks in the world, and there was a kind of warmth flowing in her heart.

Breakfast is still pumpkin porridge, boiled soft and sweet pumpkin with steamed pumpkin pieces, and the side dish is a plate of pickles made at home and cucumbers.

That's all there is to it at this time.

Lin Xiaowan tasted a bite of pickles, and felt quite refreshing, but she put too much salt and ate too much, which was a little choosing.

She hurriedly drank two mouthfuls of porridge, and suddenly remembered the modern sour and delicious kimchi, and thought that she could let Liu try it when she went back another day.

If it tastes good, you might even make a lot of money.

Thinking about it, she was amused by herself, and felt that she was really like a demon, she could think of anything to sell for money, and she really fell out of her eyes.

After breakfast, Liu Yaozu and Guo Chengling drove the ox cart to the town to catch the market, and Lin Zhen stayed with his wife to accompany his mother-in-law to walk around the village.

Lin Xiaowan also accompanied the trip.

Grandma Wang took them to visit several close relatives, and they also met many villagers in the same village on the way.

Some of the older generation of old people can still recognize them when they see them, but the little daughters-in-law who married later are not impressed at all.

After all, Liu went back to his parents' house once after he got married, and after so many years in between, even if he had a one-sided relationship, he has forgotten it all now.

However, some old people recognized Liu and greeted them.

Grandma Wang couldn't close her mouth with a smile, and when she met people, she told people that her daughter and son-in-law had come back to see her.

Accompanying her mother, her grandmother saw her relatives who she didn't know for a long time, and Lin Xiaowan felt that her face was about to stiffen with a smile.

When they got home, Liu Lianhua was already cooking, and Liu washed her hands and went to help.

With Liu and her aunt in the kitchen, she was not needed, so Lin Xiaowan sat in the courtyard and chatted with Grandma Wang.

Liu Cheng was at the age of being idle at this time, and he was not afraid of life, so he pulled his sister and asked her to play with him.

Lin Xiaowan went out for a long time, she was really tired and panicked, and she didn't want to move, so she told him and let him play by himself.

However, Liu Cheng was too persistent, pulling her and refusing to let go, Lin Xiaowan was helpless, as soon as she wanted to get up, Guo Chengling walked over, lifted Liu Cheng up, and smiled at him: "A man has to play some men's games, what's the matter with pestering your sister all the time?" Let's go, brother-in-law will play with you for a while. ”

Liu Cheng pouted unconvinced, "I'm also a man, I want to go by myself." ”

Guo Chengling teased him, "How can you prove that you are also a man?" ”

Liu Cheng tilted his little head and thought for a long time before he said seriously: "I can get something for my mother, and my mother said that I am her little man." ”

Lin Xiaowan and Guo Chengling were both amused by him, Guo Chengling put down the "little man" as he wished, and led him to the front to play.

When she left, she didn't forget to take a look at her daughter-in-law, Lin Xiaowan was a little blushing by him, and asked him to leave quickly.

All told, they hadn't been alone for two days.

Grandma Wang watched the interaction between the young couple on the side, with a happy face.

Looking at Guo Chengling's back, Grandma Wang couldn't help but think of her deceased husband who died early, and felt sad in her heart, and couldn't help but sigh to her granddaughter: "When your grandfather was alive before, he was as good to me as Chengling was to you. At that time, his mother disliked me for not being able to do work, and he was embarrassed with me everywhere, and the first thing your grandfather did when he came back from day to day was to ask me if my mother-in-law had embarrassed me, and every time I said no. But he didn't know where he knew it, so he turned his head and went to persuade my mother-in-law, because of this, for a while, my mother-in-law didn't have a good face when she saw me every day. ”

Speaking of this, Grandma Wang seemed to remember something happy, and couldn't help but show a nostalgic smile, "My mother-in-law is a knife mouth tofu heart." She said she didn't like me every day, and once when I had a fever, she was as anxious as anything. It's asking for a doctor again, and it's giving me a decoction of medicine, if it weren't for your grandfather saying it, I wouldn't believe it. ”

Lin Xiaowan looked at her grandmother's wrinkled face, and suddenly asked with emotion: "You must miss grandpa." ”

She used an affirmative sentence.

Grandma Wang was stunned for a moment, leaving two lines of tears without warning. Lin Xiaowan thought that she had said something wrong that reminded her of something unhappy, and called her nervously: "Grandma...... Are you alright? ”

Grandma Wang waved her hand at her, lowered her head and wiped the tears from her face,

"It's alright...... Grandmother...... I just miss your grandfather. ”

She wiped away her tears, sniffed, and then spoke to Lin Xiaowan.

"Your grandfather, he is very good to his grandmother. He is the best person in the world to grandma. It's a pity that God doesn't have long eyes, so let Brother Zong ......"

When it came to Liu Zong's death, Grandma Wang was still uneasy, her emotions fluctuated uncontrollably, and she choked up and couldn't say complete words.

Lin Xiaowan stood behind her, gently patted her grandmother's back, and gave her a smooth breath again and again.

Grandma Wang eased up, turned around and smiled at her, and continued to say, this time, her voice was much calmer, not as excited as just now.

"Your grandfather went to find someone to theorize because of my business, and something happened on the way back. When I got home, I was terrified, afraid that he would just go. Fortunately, a life was saved, but the bones of the body were just like that. In the final analysis, it was I who caused Brother Zong, and I am sorry for him. In order to see your grandfather, I borrowed money from others, and when your mother got married, I couldn't even make up a decent dowry for her, I couldn't live with your mother, in my life, no one could live with me, no one could live with me. ”

Grandma Wang's face was full of guilt and self-blame, Lin Xiaowan felt uncomfortable when she saw it, and comforted her: "It's not your fault, grandma, don't say that, grandpa should be unhappy listening to it in the sky." Life and death are fate, wealth is in the sky, grandpa will not blame you. My mother won't blame you, she wants grandpa to be good just like you. And now we're not doing well, aren't we? If grandma wants to say this and let my mother know, then she will be sad. You are not to blame. ”

Grandma Wang sighed, didn't say anything more, and looked in the direction of the courtyard gate in a daze.

Lin Xiaowan knew that she must still have a knot in her heart, and her grandfather's death was too big a blow to her grandmother.

This knot must have been a grudge in Grandma Wang's heart for a long time, and she couldn't untie it for a while, so she could only think about it slowly.

She didn't continue to ask about this topic, so as not to provoke Grandma Wang again.

But seeing Grandma Wang in such a daze, she felt uncomfortable, so she proposed to her grandmother: "Grandma, the sun is getting big outside, let's go back to the house." ”

Grandma Wang came back to her senses and nodded, and Lin Xiaowan walked next to her and helped her to the house.

The grandfather and grandson sat in the house for a while, and Liu came to ask them to wash their hands and prepare for dinner.

Liu Yaozu put the two tables at home together and placed them in the shade of the courtyard, and a group of people just gathered in a tight circle.

At the dinner table, Liu Yaozu took out a pot of old wine and poured a glass for his brother-in-law and nephew, and the women and Liu Cheng, a child, replaced the wine with tea and touched a glass together.

Liu Yaozu stood up and said to his sister and brother-in-law: "You came late yesterday, and there are no good things at home. Today is officially for my sister and brother-in-law Xiaowan, you have received the wind and washed the dust, our family has been together for so many years, I am a younger brother, I am happy, this cup, I will do it first for respect! ”

Lin Zhen hurriedly stood up, "It's just that we caused you trouble, we came without saying a word, and I didn't say hello to you, so you and your younger siblings broke the bank." Xiurong and I haven't come back to see my mother for so many years, it's our fault. ”

After speaking, he raised his neck and took a sip of the wine in the cup, and said: "Mother, Xiurong and I are here to compensate you, don't be angry." ”
