After resting for a night, when she woke up, it was already early in the morning, Yang Yinglin began to organize her things, and the large army was ready to return to the city.

On the way back to the city, he passed by a familiar village: "I have a reluctant request. Yang Yinglin was a little embarrassed, but she actually hesitated for a long time before she spoke.

Ji Ran stepped on the emergency brakes, "What's the matter, you are uncomfortable, or don't tell me that you have something important on the top of the mountain, then I will find out that I don't want to climb Mashan again." ”

"Actually, I'm quite embarrassed because my body has delayed some of the return time, the village in front of me is to my ancestral house, I want to visit my grandmother, I grew up in my grandparents' house, my grandfather and grandmother have loved me since I was a child, I was so busy some time ago, my grandmother always told me not to see her, I really haven't been back to my ancestral house for a while, I miss her."

"I think it seems to be going in that direction, right?"

"Ji Ran, how do you know?"

"It's all as bad as you, you forgot that I picked you up at the bus stop near here and went back to the city, not only do you not know how to thank you, but you also dislike my car bag."

"Why do you always like to dig through old accounts, don't forget that time to help you deal with your factory, you drove the car to the roadblock at night, and we walked the mountain road in the middle of the night." Yang Yinglin was not to be outdone.

"Okay, Miss Yang, I'll let you do it, I won't fight with you, can we talk about something serious, such as where should we enter the village next?"

"It's not far away, go straight for about ten minutes, that's the intersection to turn left, and then stop at the second alley, let's just walk in."

Yang Yinglin took them to the mouth of the alley, "Why are you stunned, is it possible that you have to wait for me in the car, let's go together, it's noon now, you can eat at my grandmother's house, the food she made is delicious, hurry up and get out of the car." ”

Yang Yinglin got out of the car excitedly, ran and jumped to the ancestral house, and saw that her grandmother was enjoying the shade under the tree at the door of her house, for some reason the corners of Yang Yinglin's eyes were a little moist, and at this moment she found that her grandmother was much older.

"Grandmother, I'm back." Yang Yinglin shouted excitedly, and her grandmother got up happily when she saw her.

"Grandmother, slow down, I'll help you." Yang Yinglin ran over and carefully helped her grandmother.

Grandmother touched her face lovingly: "Why have you lost some weight recently, and people are also haggard, are you too busy to eat properly?" The magpie has been barking for the past few days, and I always think that you will come back, so I am waiting for you at this door every day for the past few days, which can be regarded as waiting for my granddaughter. Come inside the house, Grandma will make you your favorite leek dumplings at noon. ”

Yang Yinglin leaned on her body and said, "It's my grandmother who loves me the most." ”

Yang Yinglin looked outside the alley: "What are you doing there, don't you come in quickly, grinding and chirping as if you are discussing bad things." ”

Grandmother smiled: "Your friends are here too, come and sit down." ”

"We haven't prepared any gifts, so it's not good to go in so empty-handed and have lunch." Ji Ran was a little embarrassed.

"When you get here, it's not good if you don't go in." The patriarch said.

"There must be some small shops around here, let's go find something to buy first, and then prepare some for the old man to bring back when we get back."

"Why do you see the outside like this, just treat it as your own home." Yang Yinglin's grandmother said with a smile when she heard it.

"Why did you come in person, grandmother, your body is so good, and Yinglin is so beautiful, it looks like you were young." Ji Ran stepped forward to help his grandmother with some familiarity, and didn't forget to pat the horse's ass.

Zhou Xuran greeted the patriarch with some restrained politeness and followed behind.

They came to the ancestral house, it was really the same as the scene in Yang Yinglin's memory fragment, as if time stood still and there was not much change, the old house vegetable garden, the house was some years old, but it was clean and tidy, very warm.

"How about we eat dumplings at noon."

"Okay, my favorite dumpling." Ji Ran said excitedly.

"Grandmother, just eat a little, there are many of us, and it's troublesome to make dumplings." Zhou Xuran thinks a lot about the elderly.

"It's not troublesome, Yinglin likes to eat, I like to make it for her since I was a child. I also have a few specialty dishes that I will make for you to try at noon today. ”

"Grandmother, you are so good to us, I really envy Yinglin." Ji Ran also took the opportunity to coquettishly say that Yang Yinglin's grandmother looked at these children with a smile.

"It's like it's my home, but we need everyone to do it together. Yinglin and I prepare the dumpling filling, and you go to the small vegetable garden to pick vegetables, wash them and bring them over. ”

Ji Ran and Zhou Xuran went to the small vegetable garden according to their grandmother's division of labor, and Yang Yinglin's grandmother looked at her granddaughter with a smile: "We Yinglin grew up, no wonder we are always so busy, we have our own careful thoughts and small lives." ”

"Grandmother, what are you doing?"

"These young men are not bad, I am also from here, I have a very accurate eye for people, and I am relieved that someone can take good care of you."

"No, it's not what you think."

"Big girl, don't be so embarrassed, which one do you like, I can help you take a look and check it."

"That's not the case, not one, I'm going to meet."

Ji Ran and Zhou Xuran recalled the scene presented in Yang Yinglin's memory fragment, and they really came to Yang Yinglin's favorite small vegetable garden when she was a child.

The vegetable garden was surrounded by the unknown little wildflowers, and they remembered the scene of Yang Yinglin picking flowers in the memory fragment. The yard is planted with eggplants, cucumbers and tomatoes, and green beans.

Yang Yinglin said that his grandfather liked to grow vegetables in this vegetable garden and was self-sufficient. After his grandfather died, the garden was not as deserted as they expected, but her grandmother should have taken care of it every day, and they suddenly felt a little emotional. They picked fresh vegetables and returned to the old house to see their grandmother busy. They also took the initiative to help, and everyone worked together.

Yang Yinglin's grandmother looked at the young people sitting around with a smile on her face: "It's been a long time since it's been so lively." Let's try my craftsmanship and try this dumpling, which is Yinglin's favorite filling. ”

"Grandmother, the dumplings you made are the best I've ever tasted." Ji Ran's appearance is exaggerated, but Yang Yinglin's grandmother seems to like him very much.

"Young man, you should also eat more, talk more, don't be so cold." Yang Yinglin's grandmother brought a bowl of dumplings in front of Zhou Xuran, and Zhou Xuran smiled politely and thanked politely.

"Grandmother, she's like that. The whole person is cold and difficult to get along with. ”

"Yinglin, what did I tell you, be a woman to be gentle and humble. In the end, this child has been spoiled by us since childhood, and my grandson-in-law has no other requirements in the future, just to be good to you and accommodate your temper, just can. ”

"Can you come and get me something?"

Yang Yinglin's grandmother got up and came to the inner hall, and the patriarch followed her.

"Miss Yang, as a woman, you have to learn to be gentle and humble, why don't you say that you don't have the advantages of your grandmother."

"I want you to take care of it, Ji Gongzi, you just take care of your own business, why don't you eat dumplings, it's so delicious and it won't block your mouth."

"Patriarch, what are you bringing here?"

"It's wine, Yinglin's grandfather has not been willing to drink it for many years, I have kept it and will give you a taste today."

The patriarch opened it and smelled it: "It's so fragrant, this wine is really a treasure." ”

Ji Ran and Zhou Xuran looked embarrassed, they were about to rush back after eating in a while, "Grandmother, save it for next time, we will go back to the city after eating, and we can't drive when we drink now." ”

"Alas, yes, you are all busy now, the times are different, and now you are paying attention to the new policy, you can't drink and drive, so I will take you back and try it."

"Grandmother, we'll come to see you when we're done, and we'll stay here for a few more days, so we'll be with you." After Ji Ran finished speaking, Yang Yinglin's grandmother seemed to be looking at him for a long time.

"What's wrong, grandmother?"

"It's nothing, it's just that this young man looks a little like your grandfather's best friend."

"Isn't it Fang Ji?" Ji Ran replied.

"How do you know about him."

"He was my uncle who died some time ago."

Grandmother was a little sentimental after hearing this: "I said, why haven't I seen him for a long time?" ”

Yang Yinglin's grandmother began to look at Ji Ran carefully again: "Lao Yang and Lao Fang used to be friends who could live and die together, and I don't know when Yinglin met this Ji Ran, saying that your grandfather and Ji Ran's uncle had made an old covenant in the past." The old testament, Ji Ran knew that it was a marriage contract, but when the words came to her mouth, her grandmother didn't say it directly, she looked up at Yang Yinglin, Ji Ran and Zhou Xuran: "In short, you have to get along well and support well." ”

"Don't worry, grandmother, we will, I'll take care of Yinglin, don't worry."

"Well, that's good, you promised me just now, you can't deceive the old man, next time you must remember to come and stay for a few more days, you can't leave me some empty thoughts." ”

"Don't worry, grandmother, we will do what we say."

"Yinglin, go to your grandfather's to sweep the grave before you leave, you have only come back once in so long."

"Grandmother, I also plan to visit my grandfather this time, I don't know how recently, I often dream of my grandfather, and I miss him every time I wake up." Yang Yinglin's eyes were red after speaking.

"Let's go too." Zhou Xuran took the initiative to bring it up, he has always respected the deceased Mr. Yang, and it is his regret that he did not visit him in his lifetime.

The grandmother did not refuse, they passed through the small vegetable garden, and Yang Yinglin and her grandmother picked some bright and vibrant wildflowers from the ground, "He used to like to play with these flowers and plants." ”

Mr. Yang's tomb is located in the mountain behind the village, which is particularly quiet, the environment is very good, the scenery is beautiful, and you can overlook the whole beautiful village. Ji Ran looked around with some emotion, it was a little similar to the cemetery chosen by his uncle, Master Fang.

Yang Yinglin's grandmother was very old, and she was a little out of breath when she climbed up, and the area around the cemetery was cleaned up, and it seemed that people often came to take care of it. Yang Yinglin placed the flowers she picked in her hand in front of her grandfather's tombstone.

"I'm fine, I've been missing you lately, I'll take care of myself, and when I'm done with some things and let go of some responsibilities, I'll come here often to chat with you." When Yang Yinglin finished saying this, her eyes were red, and she was already in tears.

Seeing this, Yang Yinglin's grandmother touched Yinglin's head: "Silly boy, every time you come, you are like this, you are safe and sound, your life is happy, he is happier than anything else, I will accompany him here, you have to have your own life." ”

"Old man, this time I brought these young juniors to see you." After Yinglin's grandmother finished speaking, she looked around with relieved eyes: "These children are good, Yinglin has grown up, and they take care of her, so you and I have less to worry about." Tell me about you, you really owe me in this life, and I won't care about you if I have the next life. When I was young, I walked for most of my life, and at the end of my life, I chose such a lonely place, and I came to see you every day, I was tired enough, and when I couldn't walk, I might be able to stay with you here for a long time. ”

After the grandmother finished speaking, they suddenly felt very uncomfortable, a silence, the grandmother of Yinglin in front of them deserves the respect of all people, most of her life waiting, a lifetime of waiting, he suddenly remembered that sentence, companionship is the most affectionate confession, Yinglin's grandmother used her life to wait for her lover, and how many people can really do it, this feeling becomes particularly precious.

Warm moments of joy are short-lived, and there will inevitably be parting. Yang Yinglin reluctantly said goodbye to her grandmother, and when her grandmother saw that they were leaving, although she was reluctant to keep it, she knew that young people had their own lives and worlds. She came to the small vegetable garden, picked some cucumbers and tomatoes that were still very tender, and insisted that Yang Yinglin take them to eat them on the road.

She hobbled behind them until they reached the entrance of the alley, and before Yinglin got into the car, her grandmother suddenly stopped her: "I have a few words to tell you." ”

"Be sure to take care of yourself outside." Then he whispered: "These young men are all good, grandmother's eyes, or that young man surnamed Ji is more suitable for you, you have a cold temperament, that person is colder." ”

Yang Yinglin knew in her heart who the person her grandmother was talking about, "Women still have to find someone who knows the warmth and coldness and loves themselves, grandmother is a person who has come over, you won't be wrong to listen to me." But how many women can figure it out in emotional matters? I'm not just confused for the rest of my life. Yinglin, I have lived to this age, there is nothing to worry about, only you make me a little uneasy, I hope you can meet someone who can accompany you for a lifetime, grandmother has no other requirements, I just hope that he can be really good to you, accompany you, you can live happily. Yang Yinglin gently hugged the person she loved the most since she was a child.

"Okay, let's get in the car, I'm waiting for you. Every time I was reluctant to leave, and I didn't come back to see me often. Grandmother's tone was a little disgusted.

The grandmother stood at the entrance of the alley of the alley until she saw that their car had left the village without a trace, and she stopped for a long time and did not leave.

No matter how far she travels back, Yang Yinglin's love for her grandmother is reluctant, but she knows that she must leave because there is still a heavy burden on her shoulders next.

It's just that along the way, Yang Yinglin's heart is very worried, to be precise, she has a very strong premonition.

Probably because her brows were furrowed all the way, and her expression was not very good, Ji Ran tried to comfort her: "Okay, I know that you are reluctant to grandmother, she is so good, I am also a little reluctant, when we have time, we will come to see her more and accompany her more, so you don't have to let it go." ”

"Ji Ran, it's not about it, but I don't know why, I have a very strong premonition, I feel that something very bad has happened, and it is getting stronger and stronger."

"Miss Yang, you are not a fortune teller, where did you get any ominous premonitions, don't think about it. You're right, patriarch. ”

"Do you have a strong hunch?"

"Yes."

The patriarch's expression also became more and more serious, "You have sensed something. ”

"I can't say the specific aspect, but I'm very uneasy."

"Patriarch, you really believe in her perception."

"Yinglin's seal has been opened, her memory has been restored, her spiritual power and sensing ability are also constantly increasing, and the blood of Extreme Yin is naturally with some keen perception. So we have to pay special attention. Zhou Xuran said with a serious expression.

Before they finished speaking, they received a message: Lao Xiao died, died suddenly, and the cause of death was under investigation.

When he heard the news, Ji Ran, who was driving, stepped on a sudden brake, and the people in the car were shaken by him, and the patriarch was even more frightened.

"Drive well." Zhou Xuran just said coldly.

Ji Ran's panic is reasonable, so Zhou Xuran's indifference and indifference are unreasonable.

Ji Ran knew that his reaction just now was a bit excessive, he glanced back at Yang Yinglin, Yang Yinglin's face was solemn, and her brows were furrowed.

Ji Ran sighed lightly, they and Lao Xiao also have a relationship, especially Yang Yinglin seems to be familiar with that Lao Xiao at first sight, special fate, when such a thing happens, he doesn't know what to say to Yang Yinglin, or hurry back, understanding the truth of the matter is the most important thing.

Yang Yinglin took out the half of the remaining ancient book that Lao Xiao gave her from her bag, Lao Xiao gave it to herself so trustingly, she promised that she would return the complete book to Lao Xiao after all the things were over, and tell Lao Xiao all the stories, but this promise obviously could not be fulfilled, leaving only regrets. She clutched the remnants of the ancient book tightly, her fingertips white.

She suddenly remembered what Lao Xiao told her that this book had brought death to his friend, so could Lao Xiao's death be related to this book.

She turned around a little angrily and saw Zhou Xuran who was closing his eyes and recuperating, he could still be so indifferent at this moment, she thought carefully of what Lao Xiao said, this book is related to the Jiang family, and Zhou Xuran has in-laws with the Jiang family, so Lao Xiao was so wary of them that day, but Lao Xiao finally chose to believe in himself, and the book finally came to his hands.
