Chapter 133 Aunt
"Xiao Huang, is the eldest lady in the back?"
Just when He Meijing was immersed in her own world, she heard the voice of an elderly mother-in-law, the voice was very anxious, as if her relatives who had been waiting for many years had finally returned.
"Yes, auntie, the eldest lady is back." Huang Bo said and stepped aside.
He Meijing looked up and saw a gray-haired mother-in-law, holding a cane in both hands, blinking her eyes several times and looking at her, while there were two people beside her holding oil lamps in their hands.
"Miss, this is my aunt." Huang Bo He Meijing introduced.
My aunt is the last wife of the old man, and she is also the wife of the patriarch, so her status in the clan is the highest, and the wing clan is a big family, and now that the old man has passed away, the people in the clan, especially those who live in seclusion here, listen to my aunt.
This is also what Huang Bo told her in advance, and the men of the Yi clan can have multiple wives, and there are only more than 100 people so far, and they are still facing the helplessness of more women and fewer men, and many people refuse to go out to live a modern life.
"Hello aunt." He Meijing stepped forward, and the elderly mother-in-law stroked her long hair.
"Okay, just come back, just come back." My aunt secretly wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes.
She felt her aunt's sadness, although she was the old man's little wife, her tears were definitely sincere.
"Yes, I'm back." He Meijing helped her aunt to look at the people behind, they all had sadness on their faces, and they all said to her: The eldest lady is back.
Such a grand welcome, it was the first time she had encountered it, the Wing people were a big family, she saw it, the most important thing was the smiles on their faces, and there were several children, big and small, just like the little brother and little sister next door.
They were all wearing coarse cloth with long sleeves and trousers, and a pair of straw sandals on their feet, like such a simple and honest clansman, He Meijing felt very warm, and really had a feeling of returning to her mother's home.
"Let's all go back to sleep!" The aunt said to the people, "It's late, and I still have work tomorrow!" ”
They speak standard Mandarin, which makes people feel very cordial, Xia Huan also showed her virginity, walking with a few children, whispering at the same time, children are the easiest to play together.
After a while, everyone dispersed, and a few people followed, and they walked into a wooden house, where a long table was placed with delicious food, which should have been prepared for them, and Xia Huan sat down unceremoniously to eat.
"This is Xia Huan, right?" The aunt stroked Xia Huan's head very lovingly: "What a lovely child!" ”
"Mother-in-law, why didn't Bai Wuji come?" Xia Huan knew that his father must be by his mother's side.
"He, as soon as he comes, he will circle around Susha." Aunt sat next to Xia Huan: "Why don't you ask your daddy?" ”
"He's definitely with Mommy!" Xia Huan grabbed a chicken leg and ate it: "I'll go find them when I'm full." ”
"Hehe......" Aunt looked at He Meijing opposite: "Lina, why don't you eat?" ”
He Meijing had no taste in her mouth, she just wanted to eat green vegetables, the meat on this table, the only plate of green vegetables was too far away from her.
"Auntie, there are vegetables here." Xia Huan pushed the green vegetables in front of him: "Eat quickly, we will go to them later." ”
"Okay." He Meijing picked up the rice in the bowl and ate it.
This green vegetable is a kind of wild vegetable in the mountain, it tastes good, a bowl of rice, a plate of green vegetables, she ate it alone, and Huang Bo also ate two bowls.
"Auntie, I'm full, the rest is none of my business, I'll go back and see Huzi and them." Huang Bo hugged his eight-year-old son just now, and he was as anxious as if he was something.
"Well, go ahead!" After the aunt finished speaking, Huang Bo had already run out.
He Meijing also put down the dishes and chopsticks, Xia Huan burped a few times and stood up, and her aunt also got up.
"Huahua, you take Huanhuan to meet his parents." The middle-aged woman next to her stepped forward and led Xia Huan out.
She walked over and walked out with her aunt in her arms, the sky outside was like ink, the stars were dotted, the half moon was like a hook, and the fragrance between her breaths filled her lungs.
Even at night, the place is still charming, the breeze blows the leaves, and the terraced rice fields in the distance seem to come to life, and the layers are like waves in the sea.
"Rina, it's all thanks to the old man that we Wing Clan can have such a place to live, and it's his credit!" My aunt choked up and said, "When I saw him walking peacefully, I felt a little less pain in my heart." ”
"Auntie, it's all my fault." He Meijing sighed deeply: "He has lived too hard in this life. ”
"Don't blame yourself too much." The aunt took her hand: "Although the old man is gone, there are still so many Wing Clansmen here, you must inherit the old man's last wish and protect the Wing Clan." ”
"I ......" He Meijing once thought about this question, but can she do it?
"Rina, you can do it." The aunt held her hands: "Times are different now, women are no worse than men. ”
"Okay, I'll do my best!" Can He Meijing shirk it?
The old man's will, in the information sent by Huang Bo, he transferred all the property to her, and in the diary, he entrusted the life of the Yi clan to her.
This is the old man's last wish, she can't shirk it no matter what, because this is what she should do, for the sake of the Yi clan, and for the old man, no matter how difficult it is, she has to face it herself.
"Rina, this is a room for you, let's be here tonight!" Her aunt sent her into the room: "Go to bed early, if you have something, I'll talk about it tomorrow!" ”
"Uh-huh, thank you, auntie." He Meijing was indeed a little sleepy, but after coming here, she was relaxed and lazy.
She sent her aunt out of the room, and two middle-aged women waiting outside stepped forward to help her aunt turn around and leave, watching them go farther and farther, she returned to the room and lay on the wooden bed, closed her eyes and fell asleep.
I didn't sleep all night, I slept very soundly, and I didn't want to get up when I opened my eyes, and outside the small window was the chirping of birds, like people peeping into the room, sometimes showing their heads to look at the people inside, and sometimes flapping their wings and flying away with joy.
She is like a busy person, finally relaxed, soaked in a comfortable hot spring, felt that all parts of the body were moaning happily, shouting, it was a kind of comfort, a kind of happiness after fatigue, a deep satisfaction.
Busy people can't be idle, idlers can't be lazy, lazy people will give birth to inertia, He Meijing got up and pushed the door open, the white clouds floating under the blue sky outside, I feel that the sky here is extraordinarily blue, and the air is extraordinarily fresh.
She kept taking a deep breath and looked at the very characteristic stilted building, the siding and black tiles painted with tung oil varnish, which looked extraordinarily beautiful in the sunlight, like a paradise.
