The old man who was going to leave was happy, so he was willing to stay and have lunch with them, and the relationship with Mei's father also improved a little, but with Meitian still didn't say a word, and the two seemed to never have room for maneuver.

Although it was noon, even though Mei's father drank a lot last night, he still poured a lot of wine, and at the dinner table without exception, he raised the wine glass one by one to toast him for his health and longevity, but Mei Tian didn't drink a drop, although he was not a drinker, but he never refused any glass of wine, and the old man was waiting for him to take the initiative.

Father Mei could see the old man's meaning and reminded: "A cup to your grandfather." ”

Seeing that his father spoke, he only slowly picked up the wine glass, still did not speak, and drank it, this action made the old man start to use the topic to play his duties again, he was not: "When I was at your age, your father could already write a good hand, and no matter how bad your father was at this age, what made people disappointed was that you didn't know what to say here, are you a spoiled child?" ”

"Doting?"

The reason why he put on an unfair face in the world is completely due to the hatred in his heart, maybe this way of gambling is indeed against his current age and occasion, dealing with people should be the most difficult lesson he has learned in the past thirty years, especially with his own relatives.

As long as he thinks of his childhood past, that pain is enough to hate the grandfather in front of him for the rest of his life, all he can do is not to retaliate against him, but he definitely can't tolerate him pointing fingers at the home he has built with great difficulty at this time.

When he heard such a harsh word, he simply pulled the bitterness of his way out of his body, and stared at him hideously: "You say I'm spoiled? Do you know that at that time, our family lived in a home that was neither sheltered from the wind nor rain, and it was difficult to even eat a full meal, where were you at that time? Where are you when everyone forces us to have no place to stay? Now as an elder, why is he teaching me a lesson from above? ”

"With your surname Mei and my blood flowing on your body, I am your grandfather no matter what." The old man slammed his crutches on the table, turning a table of dishes into a mess.

"This surname has not brought me any benefit, and if it were not for my father, I would rather not have anything to do with it." The more Mei Tian spoke, the more atmospheric he became, and it seemed that the pain of his memories made him lose his mind.

At this time, a sudden slap calmed him down, hatred did make him unrecognizable, but he just wanted to tell the grandfather in front of him that he had done something wrong.

The slap came from Mei's father's hand, for Mei Tian's disobedience, he is now his father's camp, even if the elders are not, they are also elders, the years have smoothed everything, he doesn't hate, he just wants to be accepted by everyone, even if the sins suffered in the past, that is all in the past.

"As long as you live, then you must have the surname Mei, this is an indisputable fact." His father blamed himself for not fulfilling his due obligations, not passing on the idea of passing on the family torch, and the tense life at that time was only about how to survive.

Mei Tian was stunned by his slap, but he thought that his father felt very uncomfortable, and the pain seemed to be overturned, so he forcibly looked at his father, so he wanted him to know that everything was actually not worth it for their two elders, he had already seen through the world, but his temperament had not yet been smoothed out, so he would be emotionally excited.

The father didn't react for a while, the slap was just a momentary anger, and he stopped his disobedient words, but when he thought of why the child was so extreme, in fact, it was for the two of them to fight against each other, with their actions, maybe now they can't have such a luxurious home in the face of the loess for a lifetime, and every brick and tile in the family is a son subsidy, and they are satisfied to have such a filial and sensible child.

This slap made him regret it, but as a father, he must have dignity, and said moderately: "No matter what, he is your grandfather, and he can't speak without rules in front of him." ”

Mei Tian touched her hot face, but it was not as strong as the pain in her heart, Mei's mother came and touched it in distress, she didn't understand so many big truths, but when she saw that the child was wronged, she couldn't feel good.

"If you say I was dead long ago." The words were said in a very soft voice, and everyone could hear them in such a quiet environment, and Mei Tian reminded them all that he had died once when he was a child.

After finishing speaking, he left the table, and the happy reunion dinner of the whole family was so unhappy, no one had the appetite to eat, Mei Tian's last sentence went straight to the heart of the second elder, just like the child's sentence He lived to pay off his debts.

Therefore, Mei's mother also ignored Mei's father for a day, she could accept him to go to contact relatives, or she could not mention the old things, but she must not let the children be wronged, they have not given Mei Tian much warmth over the years, she should be ashamed, but now she is scolded in public, and even shot, she is really upset, and she wiped the corners of the table in the kitchen over and over again, this is the only way she can vent as a woman.

The old man sat in front of the door and squinted, he did not spoil the atmosphere because of his arrival, and denounced the family's way of life without order, he wanted to change these bad problems and shine on the lintel again.

The lost Mei Tian couldn't swallow when he thought of this grandfather's tone, and he didn't want to stay at home for a moment, but considering his parents' feelings, he discussed with Chu Jun and asked him to think of a foolproof plan, which would not hurt his parents' hearts, and he could leave early to work on their careers.

This matter is not difficult for Mei Tian, in fact, Mei Tian just didn't want to participate in the ceremony, but he agreed to his parents and persuaded Jiang Li, who said that her parents were close to the old capital of Jinling, less than four hours away from Jiangcheng, and said that if they wanted to meet this son-in-law, their parents definitely hoped that their son would do great things, plus the image that Jiang Li had created before was very good, so the delay was cleverly avoided, not only did they not blame, but they may support this matter more, although there was a sense of deception, but this could be more convincing to the second elder.

Whenever he made a suggestion, Chu Jun would not let him down, this memory was feasible, and it was just a good time for him to go out to breathe.

When Jiangli learned of their plan, she showed an elusive expression, but she quickly agreed, maybe leaving suddenly was not in her plan, but it didn't have much effect, although she was eccentric, but there was no misconduct in the past few days.

Before he could speak, Father Mei came over and looked at Mei Tian kindly, wanting to use this smile to resolve the previous wrongdoing, but fortunately, his son did not hold a grudge against the matter.

There was no one to talk to the old man, and he was bored and planned to go back to his old house, so Father Mei came up with a plan to let the grandfather and grandson have more time to contact, maybe there will be more exchanges, and the relationship will be warmed up.

Of course, this matter was rejected without hesitation, it was not difficult to send him back, and it was necessary to be alone with him, which was completely impossible, and it was delivered in a few minutes by car, so why bother so much.

As a reason, because he is old, he needs to move around more, and he can't take the car, so he should accompany the old man for a walk.

Regardless of whether the father's reason was sufficient or not, but he couldn't accept it, he gave the general a look, and asked her to tell her about the plan they had drawn up, who expected her to offer to be willing to accompany her, the old man liked her so much, and it was also the responsibility of the younger generation to accompany him for a walk.

Father Mei was full of joy when he said this, and the prospective daughter-in-law identified by the old man may resolve the resentment that has accumulated for many years, and he also likes Su Mu's character, but as a reality, he would rather accept the strange identity of Jiang Li as his son's girlfriend, and the same is true in terms of inheritance.

I can't find an excuse, and I can't persuade it, so I can only bite the bullet and send the old man back to the town house, the grandfather and grandson still have nothing to say, and even the distance is kept three steps away, fortunately, they will leave aside, and they can laugh with him, it is not difficult to see that the old man really likes this little girl.

Maybe he walked too fast, and he saw that he had already walked half the way after a while, and the old man said that he was tired and wanted to find a place to rest, so he chose a tombstone and sat down, this tombstone was set up by him for the deceased in the tomb, not passing by but the old man came here on purpose, and he came here to rest with ulterior motives.

After a detour to come here, it is not difficult to see that it is deliberately so, it may be that he misses his old friend, Mei Tian can't imagine that such an unsympathetic grandfather still misses an old friend, is it a grandmother who has never seen and passed away?

It is reasonable to say that the grandmother should be buried in the ancestral grave, and the tablet is in the ancestral hall, so it can be inferred that the tombstone was not erected for her.

The tombstone is very simple, and there are only two lines of words engraved on the stone: "Old friend, the tomb of Wang's Tingze, friend, Yuli." "This place is very remote, a little gloomy so no one often passes by here, there are many thorny shrubs growing around, a few locust trees that shade the sun and the moon are even more gloomy, and it makes people feel cold here in broad daylight. No wonder the wasteland next to it is full of reeds, and there is no dealer.

I remember when I was a child, I heard that this place was always haunted, and there were ghosts and fires at night, and the grass was abundant, he never thought that such an evil place was actually erected by his grandfather, who regarded himself very highly, and he didn't even dare to engrave his own surname on the monument, presumably because he was afraid that others would know about his reputation.

The old man sat there and bowed, usually he worships alone at night, but today he came to see by the way, now he is inconvenient, and there are fewer comes, and almost no one knows who is buried inside.

The years made him cry, and after some emotion, he asked: "I heard that a few days ago, a coffin was dug up in the village, and it was full of gold, silver and jewelry?" ”

This is a well-known thing, but when I heard him ask this, I didn't really want to answer, so I simply replied "Yes." ”

"Where was it? No wonder I couldn't find it. ”

Listening to what he meant, he should have dealt with the contents of this coffin a long time ago, so he said perfunctorily: "You are so interested, why are you not there when you watch the excitement?" ”

His cynicism made the old man not angry now, and looked at the crutches to show that he was more than capable of strength, and then said: "You should be interested, and have something to do with you." ”

"With me?" Seeing that he said it very seriously, it didn't look like he was deliberately looking for a topic to count himself.
