Chapter 30: The Last Wish

When I got home, my aunt was laying out the film, and when she saw me coming back, she asked me to give her a cut. I walked over and pulled the end of the film to help her straighten it out. After that, she asked me to help her carry the wheat out, saying that she would let my uncle pull it to the machine tomorrow, and there was not much left at home.

After the grain was dried, it was noon. I went to fetch water to wash the vegetables and help with the pot. My dad has already come back, but he doesn't have a pot house anymore, so he can only get some food on the pot here after it's finished cooking.

After eating, my aunt and I was going to go out to play, and let me watch the food at home. I said yes, and then my dad came over to cook. I helped him make the pot. I watched him bring another small pot of winter melon, and said, "Are you fried winter melon again?" ”

"What do you fry without stir-frying winter melon? Stir-fried meat? Where did it come from? ”

"Can't you go buy some, then?" I said.

"You give me money?" My dad said.

"How can I have money?"

"Don't have money and still want to buy meat? Call people by their faces? "My dad said, let me hurry up and light a fire for him. I didn't have any fault with his angry tone, so I had to burn the pot for him obediently.

When I was frying the winter melon, I took some condiments from my grandfather's house and put them in for him. When it was fried, my dad said it was a bit meaty, and it was better than empty frying.

I told him that this condiment is called the King of Meat, and of course it should have a bit of meat. My dad asked me what kind of condiment it was. I said I don't know, my sister-in-law bought it. In the past few days, she has been cooking all the dishes, which is very delicious.

After my dad finished eating, I helped him brush the pot. In the afternoon, I would do my homework and look at the grain. Because it was winter vacation, there was no farm work for me to do, so it was quite easy. My days went by like this.

I haven't been able to protect my hands since my grandmother died. Frostbite occurs on your hands in winter, and this year is no exception. Towards the end of the year, the weather became very cold and it snowed heavily. And that snow was intermittent from the beginning until the year later.

This year, my aunt and they came late, because it was snowing all the time, and it was not easy to walk on the road, so they didn't come until the fifth day of the new year. It snowed that day, too, but it was a little lighter.

My uncle built a shed on the tractor, and my aunt, sister and brother sat in it with a quilt. I was doing my homework at home when they came, and I heard the sound of a tractor outside, so I looked up. Then I saw that my uncle had arrived at the door with a tractor.

I hadn't seen my sister's person before I heard her call my name. I hurriedly dropped my homework and ran out, calling my uncle, calling my aunt.

My uncle parked the machine and asked my grandfather where they went. I said I went out to play and haven't come back yet. My aunt said that eighty percent went to gamble again, saying that he couldn't quit gambling on such a cold day. My uncle said, "I don't have any work to do on this day, so why don't you play cards?"

My aunt was there to scold him when he said that, and I helped my sister and brother bring their things into the house. It didn't take long for the aunt to come back first. When she saw her aunt and them coming, she hurried back to buy groceries. My aunt said they bought some from the street, and they didn't have to buy it. But my aunt still went to buy some and came back.

Later, my grandfather and uncle also came back, and they were very happy to see my aunt and them coming. My aunt bought my grandfather a pair of cotton shoes and thermal underwear. I also got a sweater and some of my sister's old clothes.

After that, my sister and brother and I were watching TV in my uncle's house, and they were busy there. My brother brought out the things he had brought from home for me to eat. My sister also gave me the pictures she drew at school. But I don't have anything to give them.

The three of us kids talked a lot, and I hadn't been that happy in a long time. It's been a long time since I've said that much. How I wish I could live like this every day. Later, when Dad came back, he saw a tractor parked at the door, and he knew that Uncle and they were coming. So I came over to take a look, and then Grandpa told him to eat here at noon and stop cooking.

Dad said yes and talked to his uncle over there. At noon, there was a large table of people sitting in the room, and a large table of dishes was also placed on the table. My brother and sister and I drank and the adults drank. During the dinner, my father and uncle said that I was so unhappy about my test results. Although my sister and brother did not do as well as I did, they also improved and were generally good.

The meal lasted until about one o'clock in the afternoon, and after the meal, my grandfather asked me to wash the dishes. My aunt saw that my hands were frozen like that, so she wouldn't let me wash them. said that she would come to wash, and when the aunt heard this, she asked her to put it there, and she came to wash.

After that, the adults sat there talking, and the uncle asked if I could spend the night here today? That's what I'm most concerned about, and of course I hope my brother and sister can spend the night here.

"Well, spend the night here, go to the grave tomorrow morning, and go back in the afternoon." Uncle said. I was overjoyed to hear this.

In the afternoon, Fangfang came over and asked us to go to her house to play, and my sister and brother and I went to her house. Her family conditions are relatively good, and she is doing well in our area. Snacks are not bad or anything. Her mom brought us a lot of food when we went. We watched TV and played poker at her house, and then we went to the commissary to buy snacks to eat.

My brother bought a lot of stickers, the kind that can be printed on his hands. I didn't have any money, so my brother and sister gave me five cents each. I also bought something, but not much. Basically, they bought it.

After dinner in the evening, my uncle took my brother and sister to give money to their grandfather, that is, to send wages. My uncle's hometown was on our side, but because my father worked in the gardening farm when he was young, he retired and returned to his hometown. And my uncle took his father's class and stayed there, so he would come back every once in a while to help his father bring his salary back.

Having said that, my uncle's family is actually not simple. Because every family has a scripture that is difficult to read, and his uncle's father is not the only son of him.

After my uncle took my brother and sister and went, he came back not long after. And my brother and sister also came back with a lot of snacks. Because my uncle's father sold snacks for the little ones, my brother and sister were able to bring back a lot of food every time they went. And every time my uncle went to deliver money, he would also give his brother and sister some pocket money.

That night I slept in the same bed with my aunt, my sister, and my aunt. Grandpa and brother slept in the same bed, and uncle went to sleep in the village. My uncle shared a bed with my father.

I wanted to sleep with my sister in a quilt, and after grinding for a long time, my aunt finally agreed, and I slept soundly with my sister in my arms at night. There is a faint fragrance on my sister's body, which smells very good. It's very similar to my aunt's. I think my sister sleeps with my aunt every day, which is why she smells so good.

I envy my sister so much, so sometimes I think if I were my sister. Not only is he accompanied by his brother, but he also has the love of his aunt and uncle.

It's a pity that I'm not my sister.

The next morning, my uncle and they got up early. When my sister and I were woken up, the meal was ready. After eating, my uncle and aunt took my sister and brother to the grave. I went to my grandmother's grave first, and my uncle and I followed. After going to my grandmother's grave, my uncle was going to go to his own grave. My uncle and I couldn't go with me, so I had to follow my uncle home and wait for my uncle.

But there was not just one grave they were going to visit, there should be several. Because they didn't come back until noon at dinner.

At noon, there was still a big table of people, and my father was here. After eating, the adults were chatting. I watched my brother work on the stickers there, so I leaned in. When my brother saw me tilting his head to look at him, he asked me to reach over and put a flower on my hand. I pressed it with my hand for a while, and then carefully tore off the top layer of plastic paper. I looked at the flowers that were completely printed on my hand, and they were quite beautiful, so I took them to my sister on the side. She saw it and said it looked good, and then went with me to my brother to ask for it. As the minutes passed, my heart gradually became heavy.

They're about to leave...... If only they didn't go, stay another day, even if it's a day. I thought to myself. I also sighed, why do happy times always feel so short?

Then it was almost two o'clock in the afternoon. I heard my father say that it was not early, so if you want to leave, you should leave quickly, otherwise it will be too late to get home.

I listened to my aunt say the same, and watched them pack up their things and call my brother and sister. I was very sad in my heart, and then I heard my aunt say, "When will the little one start school?" Are you going to play with your sister and brother for two days? ”

As soon as she finished speaking, her father said, "You can go!" School is about to start, so what else to play? Haven't played well in the past two days? I'm doing my homework and reading a book next door! ”

The uncle on the side listened to it and said, "You know all day long that let her do her homework and read books, the child is so young, you will die of scare one day." What's wrong with letting her go west for two days, maybe two days of play and then go wild? ”

"My girl wants you to take care of it?" My dad scolded him and then said to me, "Don't go!" ”

My aunt rolled her eyes at my dad and asked, "Do you want to go?" ”

My tears were already on the verge of falling, so I just bit my lip and nodded cautiously. Then the grandfather said on the side, "Then let's go together, I will also go to the west to live for two days, and then ask the little one to come back with me." ”

I raised my head in surprise, and then saw my father looking at me again, so I held back my tears and said to him, "I'll just go to play for two days, I promise not to play wild, and I will study hard when I come back!" ”

Dad didn't say anything, just said, "I'll pick your eyes when your grades drop next semester!" ”

That time, I finally got my wish and was able to go home with my brother and sister to play. Along the way, we talked and laughed, and my sister brought snacks to my grandfather and me. I watched the snow fall heavier and heavier outside, but I didn't feel cold at all. I just feel that I am very happy at this time. If only I could be so happy every day, I thought silently to myself.
