Chapter 121: Grandma, Long Time No See
"Washed?" My mother glanced at me, but her hands kept moving: "Go to bed after washing, I'll be done soon." ”
I looked at the pointer and it was already 11 o'clock, so I whispered, "I'll get up early tomorrow morning and fold with you, it's late." ”
Mom smiled and shook her head, "It's okay." I'm going to wait for your dad anyway. You go and blow your hair, go to bed. ”
I didn't have anything to say, I watched my mother fold every ingot, and obediently went to blow her hair.
The bathroom door was slightly open, and I could see my mother's every move on the living room carpet, and every look.
She's calm and focused, just as focused as she does at work.
The mother of the atheist, in order to accommodate her grandmother's request, did this seriously.
I finished blowing my hair, sat back down next to her, picked up two pieces of paper, and said with a smile, "Mom, I'll help you." ”
My mother glanced at me: "Go to sleep, girls can't stay up late." Look at your brother, you know how to maintain health. ”
I looked unconvinced: "Does he dare not go to bed early?" If you are recovering from a serious illness, you and my dad won't be able to miss him if you don't go to bed early. ”
She smiled, shook her head, and picked up the ingots: "It's really a wrongdoer." ”
My mother and I folded the ingots quietly, and we didn't say anything for a while.
After a while, I slowly whispered, "Mom, don't you miss grandma very much." ”
Mom kept moving, as if she hadn't heard me. When the ingots in her hand were folded, she looked at the roof and sighed.
"Ah, your grandmother has been gone for a year. I always felt that your grandma was still there, lying in the intensive care room, smiling and holding my hand, and asking me to dress myself up neatly. ”
After speaking, he continued to pick up an ingot, his fingers flew, his eyes were focused, and he chatted with me softly: "I still said to her at the time, you are lying here, how can I be in the mood to dress myself, you are an elder Seeing that I am so tired, should I get better sooner." ”
I picked up two pieces of paper, imagined the scene at that time, and chuckled: "Then is my grandma very wronged?" ”
Mom also smiled and shook her head slightly: "No." She looked at me very gently, patted the back of my hand, and said, old daughter, don't bother your mother, this is the last time, and when I get to your father's side in the future, I will definitely praise you. ”
My eyes were sour, but I resisted the urge to cry, but my throat was dry and I couldn't speak.
After folding another ingot, my mother looked at the ceiling, and sighed again: "Actually, she is an old man and knows everything." ”
I couldn't speak, I could only hum.
Mom looked at me, smiled, touched the top of my head, took two more pieces of paper and continued to fold: "She was smiling when she left. The only regret is that you and your brother are not here. So, forgive your mom for being selfish, and calling your brother and you back this time. ”
Her voice gradually lowered, with regret and sorrow: "I obviously don't believe this, but I still hope that she can really know that I, the old daughter, know her regrets, and I am trying to help her get it done." ”
I couldn't hold back any longer, and the tears burst into tears.
After a pause, he still asked, "Mom, you miss grandma very much, don't you?" ”
Mom smiled softly, and the laughter was almost inaudible: "When your grandmother first entered the hospital, she explained to our three brothers and sisters, saying that if you enter this time, you will never be able to get out." Let's be prepared. ”
She put all the ingots into a big bag, and her voice was slow and gentle, very firm: "At that time, the three of us told ourselves that we would earn one more day as children. Hospitalized for more than a year, your grandma is happy all day long, and we are satisfied. ”
She knotted the bag and put it in the hallway of the door, back beside me
sat down, looked at me gently, and said in a gentle tone: "Xiaoxia, your father and I, and even your brother, can't accompany you to the end." ”
She wiped away all my tears gently: "Mom is 50 years old this year, and your grandma has been with me for half my life, and I am already very content." ”
"The road in the future is that you and your brother, and your father will accompany me."
I nodded vigorously: "I have survived the hardest time, and I will be fine in the future." ”
My mother exhaled heavily and stroked my face: "The two years of your senior year of high school were really the most difficult time for our family, when your brother and your grandmother were hospitalized one after another, and my mother was really about to collapse." ”
"But you are also in the tense period of preparing for the college entrance examination, and my mother is really afraid that it will affect you. So I don't dare let you know. ”
"It's my mother's responsibility not to let you see grandma for the last time. I hope you don't blame me. ”
I held my mother's hand, and my heart was sour: "I know that you and grandma are all for my good." ”
The gentle and generous Ms. Wang in front of me, who has always been calm and calm, instantly turned red.
She took my hand back and tried to steady her voice: "Then tomorrow, let's say goodbye to your grandma." ”
I was in a trance for a moment, and solemnly responded: "Okay." ”
With a squeak, my dear dad came back with a briefcase that had been the same for decades.
I greeted with a wrinkled smile: "Hey, old man, long time no see." ”
"It's not big, it's not too small." Dad changed his slippers and stretched out his hand excitedly: "Come, old girl, Dad, let's see if you're fat?" ”
I pounced on my dad with a fierce tiger, and he, like Fang Jinning, stumbled several steps before catching it.
"Oh, my daughter is so heavy, she weighs more than 110 pounds."
I rubbed it up again: "Isn't it normal to be fat?" Otherwise, how can I be sorry for Chongwen's 20 canteens, large and small? ”
My father threw me down and solemnly instructed me, "Keep this weight, don't lose weight anymore!" No matter how fat you are, you can accept it, eat well, don't eat snacks! ”
I nodded: "Yes!" ”
Dad looked up at his watch and pointed to my room: "It's almost 12 o'clock, go to bed, girls don't stay up late." ”
Mom continued to fold the ingots and raised her chin: "Go and eat, it's still hot." ”
I looked at my parents and went back to sleep.
I couldn't fall asleep after tossing and turning, and I couldn't help but open the phone and Jiang Yueze's dialog box.
I don't know if he's asleep now? How's the experiment going?
It's really a while, and I'm crazy about it.
I closed my eyes, turned off my phone, and tried to calm myself down and fall asleep.
I slept late, but I didn't have a dream all night.
I woke up early and packed up with my mother to take things to the countryside, all kinds of fruits, pastries, and all kinds of paper money.
My brother has difficulty getting up, and he has a lot of gas to get up. Mom didn't want to care about him, so this difficult task was entrusted to me.
I pushed open the door to his room and showed a video of the Spurs game, and the sound was turned on to the loudest level.
Sure enough, the person on the bed immediately got up.
I smirked an eyebrow and went to continue packing up with my mom.
At 8 a.m., Dad drove us to the countryside.
The more I saw the familiar path, the more my heart felt nameless and sad.
Grandma lives in a village with simple folk customs, fertile land and beautiful water, every household has a lot of acres of watered land, the crops are all gratifying, the villagers are hospitable, and the naughty children can touch your head and give you a piece of double happiness candy.
I looked at the yellow corn cobs and the villagers who were harvesting the crops, and suddenly I felt like I was back when I was a child.
At that time, my grandmother was still very healthy, helping my uncle to watch the crops in the field to prevent anyone from stealing them.
And my brother and I were in the field, jumping up and down and playing wildly.
When we were tired and thirsty, we went to find grandma.
Without saying a word, my grandmother walked to the cornfield next to her, stepped on the corn cob for us, and broke a section for my brother and me to suck the sugar from the corn stalk. The taste is sweet, as sweet as sugar cane.
At that time, it was really gentle in the years, and the world was also gentle.
Soon, it was in the countryside. My brother and I entered my uncle's new home and watched the seven aunts and eight aunts come and go, coming and going.
My brother and I were at a loss, so we asked each other, "Do you want to go to grandma's old house?" ”
My brother and I were stunned for a moment, then smiled and continued, "Yes."
"Let's go!"
Just go. My uncle's new home is backed by the woods, not too close or too far from my grandmother's house.
From my uncle's house, walk straight for about a kilometer to Xiulian Supermarket. Then turn left, pass by a forest, and walk through to the alley of grandma's house.
Grandma's house is the first in this alley.
We walked to the woods behind my grandmother's house according to the familiar and unfamiliar road in our memory, only to find that the ruined temple next to it was long gone, the new temple had been completed, and even the alley entrance was also requisitioned, leaving only a small crack that an adult could pass through sideways.
And half of the courtyard wall of my grandmother's house has already collapsed.
My brother and I's hearts also collapsed in half.
I looked at my brother and said in a somewhat sad tone: "Let's go through." ”
The elder brother hummed, also with a little unknown sadness: "Let's go." ”
Halfway through, we saw the scene in my grandmother's yard.
Half of the big flowers have decayed, but the other half is still blooming in large blooms.
At the bottom, my brother and I jumped in.
The scene in the yard is exactly the same as when my grandmother was there, except that there is a layer of dust, and there are many dead branches and fallen leaves, which are not like words.
Seeing such a scene, the voice in my heart reminded me more and more clearly that grandma is really gone.
She's real, and she'll never come back.
When I look at these rooms, almost half of my happy childhood was spent here.
The wooden sword in the doorway, the bacon in the ear room, all kinds of snacks in the urn, and even the hen in the firewood room are all indispensable companions in our childhood.
And now, it's all gone.
The elder brother looked around the courtyard and said lightly, "Let's go." ”
I hummed, my eyes full of reluctance.
On the way back, my brother and I were silent. When they arrived at the uncle's door, everyone was about to leave for Hongqiling.
Grandma was buried in the orchard, first to go to the coffin, and then take the coffin to Hongqiling Field to be buried with grandpa.
The juniors were the only ones with my brother, and there was no reason to follow the coffin, so I followed the car directly to Hongqilingchang.
The uncle pointed to the front and explained, "This is the new tomb made for your grandmother, buried with your grandfather." ”
My brother and I hummed and looked at the white stone tombs in the lush woods ahead.
I have too many impressions of my grandfather who was not there since I was born, but I can't help but feel sad about my grandmother.
