Chapter 11: Homecoming

♧ Ouyang Facai's third grandfather continued: "...... Glow girl! Be careful along the way! This little money, buy you some fruit to eat on the road, and don't say that you borrow money to repay the money, that will not only make us see your mother, but also make us angry again! When you get home, greet your parents on behalf of our two old guys! You have grown up and become sensible, remember to be filial to your parents! It's not easy for them! ”

"Uh-huh!" I nodded and vaguely replied to the third grandfather's instructions.

When I went back, I didn't dare to report to my parents at home truthfully, I came to the house of the third grandfather and three grandmothers to borrow money, although it is not considered to be borrowing money now, but I still mentioned the matter of borrowing money! Well, it's all a suspense question!

After saying goodbye from the house of the third grandfather and three grandmothers, I finally got on the bus back to Wanjia Village.

Wanjia Village, there are not really 10,000 families, especially where I live Ouyang Facai, there are mountains, rivers, birds and insects, but the residents are our family! It's usually very cold and quiet!

I once asked my mother, "Mom, why do we live in this sparsely populated place?" Why don't you go to the place where the people at the entrance of the village are thriving?

My mother sighed, shook her head and said: "When we built the house, it was difficult to find this place, first, we had to consider the convenience of burning firewood (small note: At that time, every household in the village had a firewood stove, and they had to go to the mountains to cut firewood and come back to burn it. There is no current environmental awareness, electricity, gas, solar energy and so on! The peasants cut down and tied up the dry branches and rotten wood, broken branches and leaves, bamboo, etc., and transported them back to the firewood house and firewood shed to store them for cooking, boiling, boiling, stir-frying, and roasting. The second is to consider drinking water and washing (note: at that time, in our area, the countryside was to find a place with a spring water in their own homes, dig an earthen well, find some stones and stones to build the well wall and well, used to drink water, wash vegetables and clothes, etc.!). Unlike now, every household uses a motor pump water storage tower, and uses tap water! Then your grandfather looked at our house and said that the feng shui here is good, warm and leeward, like a lucky bucket (small note: the lucky bucket is a kind of round in our area, one side has opened a notched wooden barrel, built-in wooden lattice, and a fire bowl can be placed under the wooden grid, and the fire bowl can be put into the charcoal fire and the like, and people can sit in it!). It is generally used for people in winter. Good place too! That's why we've chosen this place! Besides, there is no inevitable cause and effect between the quality of this place and the prosperity of the family, right? Have you seen the story of Liu Bei's three visits to the thatched house?

I nodded, it was a tacit acquiescence! Because I did watch "Romance of the Three Kingdoms"!

I was guessing how my mother knew this historical allusion, but my grandmother laughed and said, "Although I haven't read any books, I have watched Zhuge Liang's deeds on TV, so I can infer that the place where he lives is not such a high-rise building!" How resplendent it is! It's also such a poor thatched house! There is also a sensational figure in the world! In my opinion, the quality of the place does not mean the level of income! ”

Of course, I know the overtone of my mother's words: I just don't dislike it! Keep one's chin up! Go ahead! Don't give yourself these inconsequential excuses......

My mom didn't read anything, so what she said made sense!

Because of this, I still listen to my mother's training! ”

When I suddenly appeared at the door of the house with the shriveled one, only loaded with that set of edible mushroom cultivation technology, a little fungus, and some backpacks for changing clothes, the white dog that was fed by the family to intimidate the weasel ran to my feet, stretched out his head and arched his head and wagged his tail, and made an affectionate solution!

This white dog! You guy! Going around and back in front of me, arching back and forth, I can't even walk the pace!

I touched the white dog's head and scolded with a smile: "Go!" Go! Go! I can't even take a step! ”

When my mother heard my voice, she came out from under the stove and saw that it was me, and the black stove ash on her hands was wiped a few times, and she took a few steps and took me into her thin arms!

Mom's choked voice sounded! There is also a rebuke in between:

"Ouyang Huancai... You... Where did you come from? We've searched all the relatives, friends, and classmates you might be going to! I just don't see you! Where have you been? My little ancestor! Our family is dying! Especially your dad! With a cane, I found the surrounding ponds and rivers! We're afraid you've made a fool of yourself on the spur of the moment!

You're finally back!

It's good to be back!

Come in and see your daddy!

He didn't say a word to me for days and nights! The old guy didn't speak, but I know he wanted you to be like this!

Oooh! I forgot to ask you, have you eaten? Mommy, I'm going to get you some poached eggs!

Look at you! Skinny and not sluggish! Definitely didn't eat well and slept well outside! ”

I Ouyang Facai felt a little cold on my clothes, and when my mother let go of herself and wiped my eyes and cheeks to go to the kitchen, I realized that this was the tears my mother left for me!

Mom comes and goes quickly, or it has something to do with her fiery nature!

Before I could say I wasn't hungry, I had already eaten, and my mother was already in the kitchen!

I hurried into Daddy's room!

Daddy was already standing up with his cane and was about to head outside!

His eyes are red! I really saw it!

Daddy was helped to sit down on the edge of the bed, and I called "Daddy"!

Daddy didn't say yes!

I know he's mad at me, and I don't dare to take him seriously!

Just called "Dad" again!

Daddy just let out an "um" from his nostrils!

I also felt embarrassed all of a sudden, and I didn't know how to talk about my plan to get rich!

Seeing my embarrassment, Dad sighed slightly and asked, "Girl! You're almost eighteen years old, right? ”

I nodded, I don't know why Daddy is knowingly asking these things?

Daddy then said, "Yes! You're eighteen years old! Do you feel that your wings are stiff and you want to soar in the sky? If you don't tell us something? Don't even show a little wind about such a big thing as not going to school? I ask you! Do you still think we are your father and mother? Have you thought about your own future? Girls, read more books, and have more opportunities to choose in the future! It's a big event that can change your destiny by reading! Why are you so confused! Say that if you don't read, you won't read? ”
