"You can pinch your arm and see if it hurts, and you're sure you're not dreaming!" Qin Yang said with a smile! I haven't seen her for two years, and Qin Yue has grown a lot taller! The stubbornness on his face is gone, compared to the previous naivety, the current Qin Yue is much more mature!

"My sister is back!" Qin Yue shouted loudly into the house! While holding Qin Yang's hand and walking in!

When Qin Yang entered the house, his mother Jiang Cuilian was carefully stirring pig food with cornmeal! Hearing Qin Yue's shout, she dropped the stirring stick in her hand and walked over quickly!

She opened her arms and wanted to hug Qin Yang, but found that there was a piece of cornmeal on her clothes that had just been accidentally stuck when she was stirring pig food!

So, she quickly took a step back, and slowly raised her right hand and touched Qin Yang's cheek: "Yang, you have grown handsome and thin!" Eat more in the future! ”

As soon as he lowered his head, Qin Yang saw that his mother's eyes were a little red! I don't know when my height has grown at least seven or eight centimeters past my mother!

When his mother touched her cheek with her hand, Qin Yang clearly felt that his mother's hand was very thin and thin, and Qin Yang's heart was very unpleasant.

"Go, Satsuki, cook that half of the ham meat!" Mother reached out and took the backpack on Qin Yang's back! Actually, it's not heavy at all, just a few clothes!

"Mom!" Qin Yang screamed quietly, but suddenly tears slipped down his eyes!

"What's wrong with you, Yang, are you wronged?" The mother's originally happy expression suddenly became gloomy.

"No, I'm just homesick, Mom!" Qin Yang hurriedly wiped the tears from his cheeks with his sleeves, and broke into laughter!

After putting Qin Yang's bag, his mother continued to stir the pig food! Qin Yang went over to help, but was stopped by his mother: "Just rest on the side, don't stain the clean clothes on your body!" ”

So, when his mother was busy, Qin Yang was watching from the sidelines! It was at this time that Qin Yang truly felt that being able to be with his family was the real happiness and peace of mind!

"Look at you, you didn't say hello when you came back early, it made me and Xiaoyue think about you for so long in vain, you kid!" Perhaps because of her excitement, my mother spoke incoherently.

Qin Yang had already prepared for this matter, so he gave his mother the method he thought of last night and read it out to his mother! When you are a mother, how can you easily doubt your daughter.

For Qin Yang's secret, whether it is for his mother or for his sister Qin Yue, Qin Yang finally guarded it for the rest of his life!

During the meal, the mother put large pieces of meat into the bowls of the two children, while she herself only occasionally ate some fat or meat skin!

Qin Yang really couldn't stand it anymore, so he said, "Mom, just eat it yourself, neither of us is young!" ”

"You both pick your mouth and don't like fat. I like it, I don't stuff my teeth, and I can stand hungry! After saying that, the mother smiled and showed her two big front teeth!

On the eve of the Spring Festival, the contractor paid the wages to the workers! Jiang Cuilian thought that Qin Yang was going home, so she generously took out three hundred yuan from her salary to buy dozens of catties of pork and marinated bacon!

After all, in this part of the Southwest, fresh meat can't last long without a refrigerator. Therefore, for the storage of pork, it can be better stored by making air-dried bacon!

The air-dried bacon in this place, hung in the shade of the house, will not spoil for a year or two.

Later, when she got the news that Qin Yang was going to work overtime and couldn't come back, she was lost for a long time. It's just that she buried it all in her heart.

Regarding Qin Yang's "return without telling her", Jiang Cuilian had some regrets in her heart that the family of three could not be reunited together. However, such a regret was suddenly swept away by the surprise of the eldest daughter's sudden home!

Early in the morning of the third day of the first lunar month, the mother and daughter went to the grave mountain together to grave their father Qin Jiashu!

The ritual of the southwestern people going to the grave is to help the deceased clean up the weeds on the grave, burn paper money, burn incense and say something to the deceased in front of the grave of the deceased, etc., to express their thoughts on the deceased and pray for the blessing of the deceased!

In fact, in the two years that Qin Yang did not go home, Qin Yue would accompany her mother to her father's grave to burn paper and incense on the second day of the Lunar New Year every year.

Every time, her mother would break Qin Yue apart, saying that she wanted to talk to her father alone!

It's just yesterday this year, somehow, both of them got up a little late.

While burning paper money in front of their father's grave, the sisters reported to their father one by one on their work and study. The mother crouched to the side in silence. However, it's all good news and not bad news!

Perhaps, the purpose of this is just to let the relatives in the other world not worry!

Southwestern people often say to those children who have died of their father or mother but do not learn well: "Look at the lack of virtue you have done, your father and your mother are watching from above!" At the same time, he will use his index finger to point to the top of his head.

This time was no exception, after the sisters "reported". Mother said, "I want to talk to your dad alone!" The two sisters disappeared hand in hand to the other side of the hill!

When the mother was about to end, the sisters returned to their father's grave. The mother was packing up with red eyes, and the sisters looked at each other, but neither of them spoke, just helping the mother clean up.

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, Qing Jian's parents did not go to the village to watch the village Spring Festival performance as usual, but the old couple just set up two small stools on the threshing floor in front of their homes and sat there to bask in the sun!

Although the parents did not write their unhappiness on their faces, Qingjian still knew that her parents were actually afraid that the villagers would ask about their prospective daughter-in-law. I felt that I couldn't say it, and I deliberately chose to avoid it!

Qing Jian herself, except for the annoying blind date in previous years, everything else is still business as usual, reading e-books on the computer, playing casual games, and the whole day on the first day of the New Year is spent tastelessly!

However, when the second elder of the Qing family was basking in the sun on the threshing floor, he did not escape the "interrogation" of the villagers who passed by.

"Uncle Qing, why didn't your daughter-in-law come out? Or is it your little brother? ”

The one who asked this was Qing Jian, a cousin who couldn't beat with eight poles. When she asked, Qing's mother's face suddenly looked like an eggplant beaten by frost.

"Suddenly there was something at the daughter-in-law's house, her mother called in the middle of the night, and Xiao Jane sent her away early in the morning! Why do you think it's so coincidental? The important things have come to this big New Year! ”

After Qing Jian's father said this sentence without blushing and without a heartbeat, Qing Jian's mother's face finally regained some calm!

Everyone lives in the same village and has the same surname. But if you want to talk about family and blood relationship, it is probably separated by N generations.

After three or two polite words, Qing Jian's cousin who was separated by the Nth generation left slowly! The parents and husband of the Qing family glanced at each other and were speechless, but they both knew that the other party was uncomfortable in their hearts. But on this special day, they all kept silent and restrained each other.

On the second day of the Lunar New Year, most rural people are already busy! Unless there are adult children in the family and are arranged by their parents and elders on a blind date! In order to meet guests, the family will welcome the "newlyweds" at home as if they were celebrating the Spring Festival on the first day of the new year.

Whether it's introduced to you for the first time or you're already in a relationship. Generally, the other party's family members and relatives will come from all directions like seeing rare animals, and they will look at them all over the place!

However, Qing Jian's family didn't have it this time, after all, since he told his parents that he had a girlfriend a year ago, his parents didn't give him another blind date or anything, and they didn't arrange a reception banquet at home.

Qing Jian's mother's family is far away, and Qing Jian's father has a younger sister on her side, that is, Qing Jian's aunt. Since I got married and went to other places, I have rarely interacted!

The last time the two families saw each other was two years ago, at the funeral of Grandma Qingjian. Qing Jian's grandfather died of liver cancer five years ago.

After that, the two families never contacted each other again. It is often said that distance produces beauty. But when it really comes down to real life. Distance not only does not produce beauty, but increases the estrangement and estrangement between people!

When Qing Jian got up at eight o'clock in the morning, she found that the second elder in the family was gone! Although Qing's father has always emphasized that people should be diligent. Except for the first day of the new year, Qing Jian's father has always gotten up very early! But after all, the amount of time my son spends at home all year round is at most the number of fingers on his two hands!

Therefore, his parents basically have no other requirements for him except to urge him to get married! Of course, this is also the most distressing problem for Qing Jian herself! It's not that he doesn't want to get married, it's just that it's not easy to find someone who can talk about it, and it's not easy to get together!

Especially if you stay in the factory all day long, after a long time, you will feel that living alone is not as bad as your parents say, and you are free!

However, when he explained to his parents like this, the second elder suddenly exploded: "When you were young, you were chic and free, and when you are old, you have no companions and no children, just like a dead dog!" ”

"Does anyone know which one will come first, the earthquake or tomorrow? Don't worry about me! ”

Qing Jian's words choked the second elder and couldn't answer! Qing's father even brought out the old saying "there are three unfilial pieties, and no queen is the greatest" to admonish his son, but it is almost useless!

But they didn't dare to push Qing Jian too much, after all, their old Qing family is now a single seedling, in case he is forced to jump off the wall in a hurry, it will be troublesome!

Although every time they urge their son to marry, they almost do their best to let go of the habit of talking loudly, upright, and foul language of the people here, and the "Wu Nong soft language" is completely different from the character of the people here!

Because of this, under the urging of her parents, although Qing Jian felt a lot of pressure, she never had a seizure! When his parents arranged to go on a blind date, he would also politely go through the motions. In the end, it was not appropriate!

In this way, year after year, the girls who have been on a blind date with him have already married and had children! So much so that later, he couldn't find a blind date that matched his age at all.

However, even so, when she went home during the Spring Festival every year, Qing's mother would still inquire in advance, and as long as there was a girl she thought was suitable, she would arrange for Qing Jian to meet!

Even once, she arranged a divorced woman for Qing Jian. At the same time, he said to Qing Jian seriously: "Xiao Jane, you see that you are almost thirty years old, don't pick and choose, you can get by!" Qing Jian was speechless about her mother's words.

At half past eight, when Qing Jian finished washing and was rubbing her hands and walking out of the house, Qing's mother was walking in from outside with a basket on her back, and Qing Jian stretched out her hand to pick up the basket on the back of the old lady!
