Chapter 42: Old Lady Wu
"Second uncle, what are you doing here? Is my brother Hao back?"
As soon as Lu Ming looked up, he saw an acquaintance, who was Lu Zishan, the second uncle of his own family, and immediately greeted him warmly.
Because the village itself is not big, they are basically their own families, and they are all surnamed Lu. Lu Ming's father, Lu Ziye, is the fourth, although he is not a father, but his grandfather's generation is a father. So they have a strict generational relationship here, even if it is a newborn baby, as long as the generation is older, they have to call uncle.
Hearing Lu Ming inquire about his son Lu Hao, Lu Zishan had a smug look on his face, and said with a smile:
"It's back, it's back, it's back, it's back the day before yesterday, and so is my precious grandson."
"Okay! When I go home and settle down, I'll go to play with Brother Hao! Second uncle, I'll go home first!" I don't know if it was because I heard Lu Zishan talk about his grandson, Lu Ming felt a faint sadness in his heart. Because he and Xiuqiao have been married for several years, Xiuqiao's stomach has not moved.
"Oh, okay, go back and see your father first, I'm waiting for you!" Maybe he felt that he had missed something, Lu Zishan laughed dryly and hurriedly said.
From the parking place to Lu Ming's house, it was less than two hundred meters, but at this point, Lu Ming felt that his mouth was about to dry. When he met some elders, he had to stop every time to say hello and hand out cigarettes, and the rules of the old Lu family could not be changed. Maybe everyone knows that Lu Chen himself is a person who is a man of few words, so most of them talk to Lu Ming.
Lu Chen just helped carry some packages, and every time he met an acquaintance, he shouted with Lu Ming, whatever Lu Ming called, he would call him. But when he really called a little kid who was only about four years old to call grandpa. He was really not calm, and he couldn't wait to run home.
"Dad!Mom, we're back!" Xiuqiao shouted as she pushed open the door of her hometown. He and Lu Chen entered the house first, and Lu Ming was stopped on the road to greet the neighbors.
"Hey, hey, you're obedient...... Don't move!Kuroko, be obedient!" Because the courtyard of Lu Chen's house is relatively large, as soon as you enter the gate, there is a shadow wall. Only by turning around can you see the situation behind clearly, and at this moment, only the voice of Lu Chen's mother Li Wenjuan came from behind, but she didn't see a figure, and she didn't know who she was talking to.
Xiuqiao glanced back at Lu Chen, not knowing what her mother-in-law was doing behind.
Just as Xiuqiao was about to raise his legs to buy into the yard, he saw a black shadow rushing out, accompanied by the old lady's shout:
"Kuroko! Kuroko! Why are you disobedient! It's all your own family! Don't make a mistake!" Then I saw Li Wenjuan chasing after me with a rope.
"Yo! Kuroko has grown so big, does Kuroko still know me?" Xiuqiao said happily when she saw a big dog running over, she remembered that when she came home last year, the dog was only a little bit, and this year it has grown so big.
Kuroko wagged his tail, dangled around Xiuqiao twice, and called "Wang" a few times, it seemed that he recognized Xiuqiao. After a while, he ran to Lu Chen's side again. As soon as he sniffed twice, he saw that Kuroko was suddenly shivering and no longer screaming, and his eyes were lowered, hiding from something that frightened him.
At the moment when Heizi was about to touch Lu Chen, Lu Chen felt an invisible force emanating from the bottom of his heart, uncontrollably covering his whole body, as if he was naturally forming a kind of protection for himself, and at the same time, he seemed to feel a trembling soul in front of his eyes. He was stunned for a moment, and immediately reacted, could this trembling soul belong to the dog in front of him, and does an animal also have a soul? How could it be, how could he feel it? Could he feel the soul of an animal? This made Lu Chen wonder very much, and what was the matter with that protective aura that rose from the bottom of his heart? For a while, many greetings filled his brain.
"Hey!Mom! Look at Heizi, it seems that he is very afraid of Lu Chen!" This move of Heizi did not escape Xiuqiao's eyes, she was also curious, this lively dog, suddenly honest?
"Yes, it's still a thing, it's a thing, it's a thing, it's usually naughty, I just wanted to tie it up, how can I see Xiao Chen, I ...... it?"
Li Wenjuan was also a little puzzled, but seeing Lu Chen's appearance that seemed to be in a daze at this time, she couldn't help but chuckle in her heart, could it be that her son was not completely well, and he was still in a daze with a dog. As soon as my heart rolled over, tears began to roll in my eyes, and I couldn't care about the situation of the sunspot.
Xiuqiao's conversation with his mother made Lu Chen sober up a lot, and he comforted the soul he sensed in his heart. Then, I saw that the sunspot had a reaction, nodded at Lu Chen, and then ran away obediently without making a sound.
"Mom, I'm fine!let's go into the house!" Lu Chen didn't want to make trouble for himself anymore, and he didn't want others to worry anymore, so he said.
"Hey, okay, come on, come in, enter the house, enter the house!" Li Wenjuan saw that Lu Chen had returned to normal, and quickly took his arm and walked into the house as she spoke.
Xiuqiao turned the shadow wall, and did not forget to look into the nest of the sunspot, she found that the sunspot was lying honestly in the nest at this time, only leaking half of his head, and looked out cautiously, but immediately shrank back.
"Are you dazzled?" Xiuqiao muttered, because just now she seemed to see Heizi actually nodding to Lu Chen.
"Mom, Dad, Huh, where's my dad?" As soon as he entered the house, before Xiuqiao's things were put down, he heard Lu Ming, who came in closely, shouting in the courtyard, because he had already seen the situation inside through the open door of the main house, but he didn't see his father.
"Oh! Your father went to the grandfather's place! I should be back in a while, I'm tired of driving!" Li Wenjuan looked at Lu Ming who came in, and said very distressedly.
"It's okay, it's just that the traffic jam is dead!" Lu Ming replied to his mother while putting down the things in his hand, but he seemed to think of what it was, and asked again:
"Go to the old lady, what are you doing? The old lady is okay?"
He knew that this old lady was also one of the few foreign surnames in the village, so he knew that his surname was Wu. Because he is too old, he should be more than 100 years old, and he usually knows some things that can be pinched and calculated, and whoever holds a happy event in the village, and who has an old man who dies, will go to his old man's house to see. Even in the past, if the child was uncomfortable, the old man would take a look, Lu Ming still remembered that when he was a child, his mother took him to see a good opportunity. Because he was too young to remember what the specific Tao was, anyway, if he didn't use modern medical methods, his illness was confused, and the children in the village basically did this, and he didn't think it was unusual.
But now, the children of every family are born to deal with the hospital, and the parents are also people who have received modern education, so they rarely ask the old man again, but even so, the people in the village still respect the old man very much, because the old man has no children and no daughters, the village will raise him, and call him the old lady very respectfully.
"Oh, then I'll go see the old lady too!" Lu Ming suddenly rolled his eyes and said to his mother.
