During the week when Yun Feng returned home, the most important thing was to go to his grandmother's house.

Grandma is much older than before, but her body is still quite strong.

The elderly in rural areas are busy until dark when they get up early, but because they eat healthily, sleep regularly, and ensure enough exercise every day, their quality of life is no worse than that of people in the city.

The eldest aunt, Yun Ling, already has two children, her daughter is in high school and her son is in junior high school. Uncle Yun Gang is two daughters, both beautiful, one is in high school and the other is in junior high school, uncle Yun Jin is a son and a daughter, the daughter is admitted to a vocational high school, and the son is in junior high school.

Their group of children are all in the early 90s, and there is not much difference in age.

The little aunt Yunxiu was urged by her family to consider marriage, and anxiously asked someone to introduce her everywhere.

Yun Yi followed his second brother Yun Gang and tended to the few acres of land at home.

Many people in Yunjia Village began to move out one after another to build buildings on the outskirts of the city, or simply gritted their teeth and bought houses in the city. While taking care of the crops in the field, they also did some small business work, and their lives were quite nourishing.

Yun Feng remembers that in the 90s, his aunt and the girls in the village went to Shenzhen to work, and when the girls came back, they all wore gold and silver, gold earrings, gold necklaces, floral shirts, bell bottoms, and later fashionable stretch leggings. However, because grandma didn't like earrings, Yunxiu also wore a silver pendant and did not pierce her ears.

Now in 2001, many of the girls who went south to work have married and had children. Generally speaking, after a girl marries in a place, she will introduce the unmarried girl in her mother's village to the young man to be married in her husband's village and town, so the girls to be married will move to the village and town of the husband's family of those married girls one by one.

The girl who married out in the village also introduced Yunxiu to her and wanted to introduce her to the village and town of their husband's family, but Yunxiu refused to marry far away because she was worried about the old mother and father of the family. I still go to Shenzhen every year to work in the factory.

Yun Jin and Yun Gang were fiddling with the crops with their daughters-in-law, and at the same time, they went to do some plasterers for others in their spare time, and their income was okay. It's just that the Yun family is too sincere, the family style is upright, and they are not good at business, except for the vegetables in the vegetable garden, they can't eat them, so they will pick them to sell in the market. Then there is the peanut oil, rice, and beans at home, and if they have more, they will also sell them, and if they want to do some business as a vendor, they don't like it, and they are not good at it.

They have always been the backbone of Yunjia Village.

Yun Feng returned to her grandmother's house, and her grandmother refused to let her work as usual, saying that she was afraid of staining her bright clothes. She also went with the work in the fields, and after doing it for a while, she said that she had a sore back, so she went back to do some cooking on the fire.

Sleeping with her grandmother at night, listening to the even breathing sound of her grandmother next to her, she was steady, but she was worried, worried that she would lose her grandmother one day, so she tossed and turned.

The next day, she stuck to her grandmother even tighter. Grandma was washing clothes by the well, so she went to help, and Grandma said that she couldn't wash them clean, and wouldn't let her wash them. She hung water beside her, and a bucket full of clear well water was so clear that she couldn't see the reflection. She picked up the spoon, scooped a scoop of water, and drank it with a clatter. Grandma said next to her:

"Oh, you kid, drink cold water."

"Grandma, cold water is delicious, it's very sweet."

Yes, this well water fed the Yun family. It is also what Yun Feng has been most worried about since he was a child. Since she moved away from her hometown with her parents when she was nine years old, she has been drinking tap water, which is not as sweet and clear as the well water.

The old well has not changed much, the edge of the well fence is still green and faint, and there are still a few long-tailed grasses growing in the four seasons, standing in the moss for a long time. Those old things of babies crying, life and death are buried in the hearts of the old people, and they are also buried in the reincarnation of the evergreen moss and grass, but Yu Yunfeng has no idea.

Speaking of which, it was because of her father.

Father may be the most ruthless, not even a photo of Yun Feng's biological mother Ming Qing Dynasty left Yun Feng, except for the grandmother who occasionally said that the clothes on her body were made of new fabrics left over from the Ming and Qing Dynasties, everything else, nothing. But Yun Feng didn't think about anything, and in her heart, she couldn't realize the existence of Ming and Qing anymore.

"Sell jelly! Sell cold powder! ”

The grandfather and grandson, who were busy working on the edge of the well fence, heard this familiar voice. Every summer, someone will pick a load of cold noodles to sell, grandma from childhood to adulthood, as long as Yun Feng is there, she will take her to buy a few bowls and come back to eat with everyone. Now it is no exception, grandma habitually put down the work in her hand, wiped her hands and went to sell the burden of jelly, Yun Feng followed behind grandma, watching the soft and bouncing ink-colored jelly into her own bowl, the joy in Yun Feng's heart was indescribable. When I was a child, my grandmother always bought a large piece of jelly in a bowl and smashed it with a spoon, put two spoonfuls of sugar, and stirred it with the well water that had just been hoisted up for her.

There are usually rice noodles, maltose, and popsicles in the village. It's just that these are very few at this time, but this jelly, the children who do farm work in the summer and the children who are at home on vacation will buy a bowl or two.

"Grandma, save a few bowls for your uncles."

Yun Feng stirred a bowl, and let grandma put the rest away. The uncles were working in the fields, and at noon they came home for dinner, just enough to drink a good bowl and cool down.

Yun Feng's cousins and cousins all followed him to work in the fields without exception, and at a young age, they were already working at home and outside the house, and they were doing a good job, and Yun Feng was not comparable at all. This is also because her body is indeed weak, her hands are completely powerless, and her wrists are soft when she scrubs her clothes, and her family knows that she is weak, so she is not allowed to work, so she has been weak, thinking that it is congenital, and does not force her.

So in fact, when Yun Feng went to Li Yunfeng's house to work, it was just to do some easy work of pulling weeds and loosening the soil with a small hoe, and she couldn't do heavy work. is pulling weeds, if it weren't for Li Yunfeng beside her, she wouldn't have been able to do it for a long time and her back would hurt.

Therefore, the people in the village envied Yun Feng, saying that she had become such a good father, and she had not been a farmer since she was a child. But Yun Feng heard it all the way and didn't say much. In her heart, she never thought about relying on her father to do anything, and she still had to rely on herself to walk the road in the future.

It is precisely because of this idea that she will follow her own temperament and fly all the way away, regardless of it.

"Your grandparents next door are gone."

The grandparents and grandchildren ate cold noodles, and the grandmother chatted.

"Huh? When was this? ”

Yun Feng's hand trembled. Yun Feng, the grandparents next door, remember clearly that the two old men gave birth to two sons, the eldest son gave some food every month, the younger son not only did not give it, but the daughter-in-law often stood under the eaves and scolded her when she had nothing to do.

"The grandfather next door went to the mountains to collect firewood, was bitten by a snake, and left a few days after he came back. The grandmother next door was crying to death, and I thought she was not long ago. ”

Grandma is also an old man, and when she talks about these things, she speaks in a calmer tone than young people.

"Oh......"

Yun Feng responded, and was bitten by a snake again. She felt sad.

"After the grandfather next door left, I went to see the grandmother next door once, and she was about to drink a bowl of pesticides, so I persuaded her. Unexpectedly, her daughter-in-law still refused to give up, and scolded her every day, but she couldn't get angry, so she still drank it. ”

After eating the cold powder in the grandmother's bowl, she put down the spoon and prepared to take her granddaughter's bowl into the kitchen.

Yun Feng sat there, dumbfounded, she didn't expect that such a thing would happen in this era. Her heart was like a sour wind passing through, and the grandmother next door picked up the pesticide, as if it was in front of her. She wanted to cry without tears. The joys and sorrows of life always exist.

She couldn't help but think of Li Yunfeng, the person who brought her close because of the joys and sorrows of life, and separated her because of the joys and sorrows of life.
