Chapter 278: Grandpa's Birthday
"Knock knock, what are you doing, hurry up for me, don't you know what day it is?" There was a knock on the door, followed by a scolding, but the people in the room didn't seem to hear it at all, and they didn't know if they slept too soundly or were too lazy to get up.
"You call me..."
The middle-aged man was only halfway through his sentence when a woman interrupted him: "Okay, okay, don't yell, let him sleep, he is tired enough during this time." ”
"Alas, this kid is getting less and less motivated, so let's go down and greet the guests first." The middle-aged couple outside the door chatted for a while and then stopped staying and walked downstairs together.
It was noon, but the people in the room seemed to be still sleeping with their heads covered, "crackling...... but apparently God did not care for him, and the people lying on the bed were sleeping soundly, but suddenly there was a deafening sound of firecrackers downstairs.
"Whoever I'm grassing, who the hell is setting off firecrackers." Before the rumbling sound was over, I was awakened from a sweet dream, "Gollum," and as soon as I woke up, I picked up the mineral water placed next to the bed and poured it into a few sips.
Because this is the only way to wake me up from sleep, after drinking the water, I slowly sat up, turned around and glanced at the alarm clock placed at the head of the bed, it was already half past one noon, I rubbed my eyes that were not fully opened.
I immediately remembered the picture that appeared in my dream just now, and I don't know why, these strange things have always appeared in my mind recently, such as dragons and zombies, and I can't sleep well at night.
Although I'm a night shifter, I've been quitting for a month and a half, because the bar changed owners, and I'm depressed and unemployed.
But fortunately, I have a pair of good parents, my father used to be a soldier, in 79 years led the soldiers to fight in the Sino-Vietnamese self-defense war, and made a lot of military achievements at that time, but I don't know why I didn't go to work, but returned to a small town to start his own timber shop business.
As for my mother, she is an ordinary resident who runs a convenience store in front of her house, and then every day she either nagged me to get married or nagged me about this, but they seemed to basically ignore me except for marriage.
This is also where I am stronger than others, because others need to work hard for life, but I can gnaw on the old, although it is a bit ugly to gnaw on the old, but now I am, it's been a month and a half, and I don't even know what I'm thinking.
I don't look for a job, even if I don't even go out, I go to sleep after eating every day, and there are always some messy pictures in my mind, so I went to the hospital and did a full body check-up.
But the answer given by the doctor was that I didn't have anything at all, the only thing wrong was that there was a psychological problem, so I went to see a psychiatrist.
At that time, I took the case, left the case and the embarrassed young doctor and left, to be honest, I don't know why I was like that, maybe I was really sick in my heart, but I didn't want to admit it.
"Crackling."
"I'm grass, come again, who is Nima." Just when I was thinking about being fascinated, there was a burst of firecrackers downstairs, and I was scared by the sound of firecrackers twice a day, and I couldn't help it no matter how good my temper was.
"Your uncle, who is put..."As soon as I poked out of the window, I was startled by the scene below, which is now completely crowded, with many relatives I know, and more people I don't know.
Almost half of the entire street is occupied, leaving only a place for pedestrians to pass through the car, "I'll go, how did I forget about this." ”
I only reacted when I saw this, today is my grandfather's birthday, no wonder there will be firecrackers, no wonder there will be so many people downstairs, but generally at this time, it's none of my business, every New Year's holiday, there are elders to cook, I just wait to eat.
"What are you doing, don't you go down to give tea to your grandfather." My brain was short-circuiting when someone suddenly tapped me on the shoulder, and I turned around to see a familiar face.
I saw a person with a height of 1.8 meters standing in front of me, with good facial features, thick eyebrows and big eyes, with a board inch head that is not long or short, the whole person looks very energetic, I know that this is my friend Li Tianyou, who has been playing with me from preschool to a big friend.
"Why the hell did you ask me to come over and help, and I might as well hide in my room and sleep." Seeing that I was still confused, Tianyou handed me a bottle of iced mineral water.
I took two sips of water and smiled: "Okay, why are you with whom, and you still care about these things with me, by the way, which one of you came to your house didn't say anything?" ”
Tianyou couldn't help but pause when he heard this, shook his head helplessly and said: "She's still worried about where they are going to do bad things, so she keeps an eye on me, but after confirming that it is your grandfather's birthday, she is not objecting, and you hurry down, the following is very busy now." ”
"Hehe" I smiled awkwardly, "You go down first, I'll take a shower." After saying that, I didn't pay any attention to Tianyou, turned around and walked towards the room, in fact, I was more puzzled by the pictures that had been bothering my mind.
I didn't dare to tell God about it, let alone my family, because I had always had a good premonition about it since I was a child.
Even I was scared of myself, so whenever this premonition appeared, I would always lock myself in my room, and only the room could give me a sense of security.
"Hey, why am I so stupid, grandpa is back." Closing the door smoothly, I suddenly remembered that I hadn't seen my grandfather for almost half a year, and today was my grandfather's eighty-eighth birthday, so I could ask my grandfather about these things.
Thinking of this, my whole body immediately came to my senses, and I grabbed two clothes from the closet and put them on, and hurriedly ran downstairs, but as soon as I walked downstairs, the scene in front of me startled me again.
The dense crowd not only has a group of relatives, but also neighbors, and what is even more funny is that there are actually a few middle-aged people in military uniforms, who I know at a glance that they are my father's comrades-in-arms.
All of them are people above the division commander level, and I don't know why my father can make friends with them, if it weren't for people of the same level, the kind of big people in other people, they wouldn't have looked at us ordinary people at all.
I used to be very curious about my father's experience as a soldier before, but he didn't know how to say anything, and even my mother told me not to ask more, once I undoubtedly heard my grandfather say, it's a pity that my father's military exploits back then, but when I asked my grandfather again, my grandfather didn't want to say a word.
Over the years, those old guys will come to drink with my dad every six months or so, and over time I have become familiar with this group of old and disrespectful goods, as soon as I drink yellow jokes, I will not leave my mouth, and every time I always make my mother speechless.
But they had a lot of respect for my grandfather, and in addition to coming to drink with my father, they brought a lot of things to my grandfather, which made me embarrassed to be a grandson.
They saw that the old man was more diligent than me, and my grandfather lived in the village by himself all the year round, and since I came out of college to work, I rarely went back to see him.
Of course, my grandfather will come back every once in a while, but in the past, I used to run around, let alone visit the old man, and it was very rare to even go home once.
"Come here, I have something to tell you." Watching a group of people in front of me busy back and forth, I was also happy to be idle, and I was not in a hurry to give tea to my grandfather.
Because my grandfather is surrounded by a group of relatives from afar to ask him to help with fortune telling, my grandfather is a well-known magic stick, and no one knows about the place where he lives.
And I have followed my grandfather since I was a child, and I was forced by him to learn these gods and ghosts, and I made myself a little abnormal, but sometimes I also disdain those who don't believe in life.
Because some things have been passed down, there is a certain truth to them, and the more I come into contact with metaphysics, the more I feel that many of them make sense, "Oh," but now I don't have the heart to think about that, so I answered and walked towards my grandfather.
