Chapter 7 Returning to the hometown to visit relatives

A day later, Chishui had returned to Houshan Village.

Chi Shui first took out the fabrics, many medicinal herbs and other gifts he bought for them from the storage bag and carried them on his back before walking in the direction of home. It's not that she's afraid that they will know, but she just thinks that for them, ordinary is a blessing! And her mother must be reluctant to buy these things, or she bought them and brought them back.

Walking on the familiar ridge road, occasionally meet a few acquaintances of the same village, Chishui greeted one by one, in Chishui's opinion, they have not changed much, but most of them can no longer recognize Chishui, or Chishui took the initiative to mention it before remembering.

It is said that the eighteenth change of the female college has changed, Chishui has been away from home for more than four years, and now she has returned to the place she was most familiar with, and she was full of emotion for a while.

Her house has not changed much, but it is a little older, with some pickles hanging on the beams outside the house, and the newly harvested grain drying on the dam, and it seems that this year's harvest is very good.

Just as Chishui was considering whether to knock on the door or call first, the door was open, and she saw her mother coming out with a baby about two years old, and she was coming face to face with Chishui.

Her mother was puzzled at first, but slowly turned to surprise, and then immediately became happy, but her eyes became moist, and she wiped the corners of her eyes with her free hand first, and then reached out to pull Chishui's arm, and took it into the house.

After Chishui entered the house, she put the things on her back on the table first, and then found a small bench that she used to sit on and sat down. began to look at her mother, her mother was thinner than when she left home, her face had become yellow, her face was tired, it should be caused by long-term work, and she was still wearing coarse linen clothes that had lost their original color.

Her mother laid the baby on the bed and carefully pulled the quilt next to her to cover it.

"This is terracotta?" Chishui asked. No, there really is terracotta! She used to really just think about it.

"Yes, it's a boy, almost two years old." Her mother sat down next to Chishui, took one of Chishui's hands and kept caressing, and asked, "How are you doing all these years?" ”

Chi Shui smiled and replied, "It's good, the master's family treats us very well, and Yuan Ya has already made a marriage." Saying that, she told her mother about Yuan Ya, looked at her mother's body with some worry, and asked, "Mother, how is your body?" ”

"It's still the same, my body is weaker, I can't resist it when it's cold, and everything else is still good." Her mother smiled and said casually.

"I brought back a lot of good herbs this time, you should remember to keep taking them." Chishui was still a little relieved.

Her mother patted Chishui's hand soothingly and said, "Don't worry." Mother knows, aren't all people like this? Birth, old age, sickness and death, you must pass this hurdle. ”

Chi Shui was stunned for a moment when he heard this, birth, old age, sickness and death, everyone has to pass this level, so what those immortal cultivators are striving for in the end is just to be able to escape from people's life, old age, sickness and death? Maybe this is just one of the reasons, and the powerful power can always make people confused and blindly pursue! Chishui was a little emotional for a while!

"Mother, if there is an opportunity for you to escape from birth, old age, sickness and death, not to enter reincarnation, and to live forever, are you willing?" Chi Shui looked at her mother and asked tentatively.

"Silly boy, people come to this world to suffer, you see that people cry when they are born, and others cry when they leave, in short, they all suffer. If there is an opportunity like the one you mentioned, it is 10 out of 10 to be seized, man! It's about getting over as much as possible. Her mother said, her tone indifferent. Then he sighed, "But how can there be that kind of opportunity? Isn't it a fool's dream? Mother, now as long as you are all doing well, starting a family and starting a business, I can see my grandson born, and I will be satisfied in this life. There was a hint of satisfaction in his tone.

Are fools dreaming? Is this the unique outlook on life that people of her mother's class have extracted from the life of struggling to survive all year round?

What her mother said was right, and you have to grasp the better things that can make yourself better. On the path of cultivating immortals, she will persist in going on.

When she came back to her senses and her mother asked her about her own situation, Chi Shui said, "I have been traveling with my master all these years, and I have also learned some martial arts for self-defense. ”

Although Chi Shui said this, her mother was still a little worried, Chi Shui couldn't, so she hurriedly changed the topic, "Mother, what about the eldest sister and the second sister?" ”

"They are all married, and your eldest sister has already given birth to a child, a year and a half old. Your second sister is also pregnant, and she will give birth in a few months. Speaking of them, a hint of joy appeared on her mother's face, and it seems that the eldest sister and the second sister should be doing well.

"How long can you stay at home? If you have enough time, would it be nice to let them come back and see them? Chishui's mother asked, her two daughters were not very far from married.

Chi Shui thought for a moment, "It's too late, I may have to stay for ten days." ”

Chishui and her mother nodded, "That's good, I'll let someone pass the message first." As he spoke, he walked outside.

Chi Shui also stood up, took a bunch of fabrics and walked towards Yuan Ya's house. Chishui told Yuan Ya's mother who was staying in the house about Yuan Ya's situation in detail, and handed over the thirty taels of silver that Yuan Ya asked her to bring back before saying goodbye and going home.

In the evening, Chishui's father returned home with Chihuo, and the family sat down around the round table to have dinner, and they were happy.

Chi Shui quietly looked at Chihuo and Chitu with his soul detection technique, and found that they did not have spiritual roots.

She doesn't force it, even if they really have spiritual roots, she doesn't mind coming back in the future and taking them away.

On the second day, Chi Shui took some medicinal herbs and some game she went to hunt in the back mountain and walked to Doctor Ge's house.

After seeing Dr. Ge and Aunt Ge, several people reminisced again, and Chishui also knew that Aoki had returned to Qingshan Township and became a doctor in the township. Chishui also picked out some things to say about his experience in the past few years and talked to them, with humor, which made the two old men laugh together, and only after half a day, Chishui was released home.

When I got home, I saw the eldest sister and the second sister who came to hear the news, they were already dressed as women, and the two brothers-in-law also came back with them, Chishui had seen them one by one, they were all natives of the crops, and their appearance was not outstanding, but they were honest and honest, and they were more good at taking care of people, it seems that Chishui still has a certain standard for her mother to choose a son-in-law.

Everyone gathered around for a real reunion dinner.

During the banquet, Chishui's father talked about some interesting stories in the village over the years. The eldest brother-in-law and the second brother-in-law also talked about some anecdotes they had encountered or heard from others. Chishui's mother was just holding Chitu in one hand, and at the same time, she was busy taking care of Chihuo, who was already six years old, and she was so busy that she couldn't interject a conversation. Her eldest sister and second sister ate silently, occasionally agreeing with each other.

Chi Shui accosted them, eating the dishes cooked by her mother's own hands, looking at this on the left and that on the right, these were her relatives.

For a while, Chishui felt very satisfied.

Although she couldn't stay in the same place as them, knowing that they were there made her heart very stable. Just like the amulet that her mother asked her for when she parted, she always wore it, and occasionally took it out to look at it, and her heart would feel calm and comfortable.

In the next few days, Chishui was jumping up and down, busy. I went to the inner circle of the mountain to hunt a lot of game, and when I came back, I pickled it and stored it. took Chihuo to dig wild vegetables, pick herbs, and then told Chihuo about the medicinal properties of herbs by the way, and also taught Chihuo to write some simple words and tell some reasonable stories......

Such happy days always pass quickly, and ten days pass in the blink of an eye.

When parting, Chi Shui took out 400 taels of silver from her remaining more than 400 taels, quietly stuffed it to her mother, said the truth that wealth cannot be exposed, and asked her mother to let Chihuo Chitu go to study in the future, not let them see them off, and quietly went away.

(There is something to say in remembrance: ask for recommendations, ask for collections, and ask for comments from all your relatives!) Your support is the motivation for my renewal! )
