Chapter 33: Family Fun
The door of the house is in sight, and Yan is not in such a hurry instead of returning.
From a distance, I saw my mother peeling hemp in front of the house, and next to me a little girl who was babbling and walking, running around her mother. You don't have to think that Yan will not return, and you will know that it is her own sister.
After all, the mother still saw Yan not returning, stopped what she was doing, quickly rubbed her hands on the apron, took off the apron, and washed her hands in a wooden bucket next to her before hugging the little girl: "Xiaoli, your big brother is back!"
In fact, after more than a year of separation, Yan Bugui has grown a full half a head taller, and his mother still recognizes Yan Bugui at a glance.
Yan Bugui finally heard his mother's words, and also knew that his little sister was called Yan Xiaoli. After more than a year, I finally saw my mother, and although my eyes were a little sore, Yan Bugui still held back.
Yan Bugui shouted: "Mother!" and then hugged the little sister.
I don't know if it's because Xiaoli doesn't recognize life or because of blood, anyway, I feel that Xiaoli doesn't recognize life at all, as if Yan Bugui has always known her.
Xiaoli hugged Yan Bugui, stretched out her little hand to touch Yan Bugui's head, and shouted: "Most of them." ”
Yan Bugui smiled unconsciously, but it turned out that he shouted 'big brother' who was not clear about the pronunciation of the little sister who had just learned to speak as 'mostly much'. But if I think that the little sister calling the second brother Yan San should also shout 'Er Duoduo'!
Thinking of this, Yan Bugui also 'saw' that the second brother and his father were not at home, and when he asked his mother, he learned that the second brother went to a private school and returned at noon. My father went to water the crops and came back in a while.
It was almost noon, and my mother was busy cooking.
Yan Bugui teased the little sister and took out a pill for the little sister to eat, although the pill is not sweet, it melts in the mouth, the fragrance is refreshing, and the taste is also very good. Xiaoli thought it was sugar, so she shouted "Duoduo" and "sugar candy".
It is impossible for Yan Bugui to give Xiaoli another meal, not that Yan Bugui is reluctant, but it is enough to eat one. Besides, this kind of ordinary pill was refined by Yan Bugui himself, and there were naturally a lot of them, and he didn't care about these things at all.
But Xiaoli pestered Yan Bugui and kept shouting sweetly "Duoduo" to ask for "sugar candy", Yan Bugui had to lie helplessly: "Xiaoli is good, there is no sugar sugar now." Big brother will buy it for you next time. ”
At this time, Yan Bugui also felt that his father had returned, and hugged his sister and greeted him. When there was still 50 zhang away, my father was carrying a load of empty wooden barrels, and I happened to turn a corner and came out and saw Yan Bugui, and said with a smile: "Boy, you have grown a lot taller!"
Yan Bugui was smirking, and the little sister was shouting "Daddy" and "Sugar Candy" on the side.
That means telling his father that the eldest brother gave him candy to eat. Yan Bugui told his father that he had just given his sister a pill. As for the new term of pills, Yan Bugui also explained it to her father. That is the common medicine for cultivating immortals, and the kind that my sister eats is the most common and common, and the ** of cultivating immortals will be refined. But it is of little practical use to those who cultivate immortals, but even if mortals eat one, they can strengthen their bodies and prolong their lives, and as for sores and diseases, they will stay away.
Then Yan Bugui avoided the sight of the little sister and took a bottle of elixir and stuffed it into his father's trouser pocket, and told his father that an ordinary person can eat one in his life. The surplus can be kept for the clansmen to keep later.
Later, Yan Bugui also said that after he left home, he met Grandpa En in Baihe Cliff, and then went to Ma'anshan to cultivate.
As for the identity of Grandpa En, Yan Bugui's father thought that it was a matter in the world of immortals, and mortals didn't need to ask.
The father knew that Daoyan would have to embark on this road sooner or later, although he had no concept of cultivating immortals, and he usually thought that he would be immortals in the future, so he supported his son without hesitation. However, it is still strange that since his son is no longer in Baiheya, why Baiheya still has silver sent every month.
Yan Bugui had heard Grandpa En's say before, and probably knew what was going on with Lu Dao, so he explained to his father that he and Grandpa En's names were still in Baiheya in Fanchen, so this was the case.
When he got home, Yan's father went to the back of the house and put a dung bucket to wash his hands and go home to rest. At this time, Yan San also came back from the private school.
I haven't seen him for a year, and my second brother has grown taller. But when I saw my brother, I still didn't feel a little rusty as before, and I was about to give my brother a hug when I jumped.
Yan Bugui held her little sister with one hand, and hugged her second brother with the other.
Although the mother still doesn't know that Lu Daoyan has embarked on the road of cultivating immortals, but even if it is Baihe Cliff, the mother also knows that Lu Dao's son has escaped from this mountain nest, and it will be rare to come back in the future, although she is very proud of her son and very happy for her son, but I don't know what happened to Lu Dao, there is still an empty loss in my heart. In fact, this situation is the same for any mother, after all, every mother is reluctant to give up her own heart.
Next, Yan Bugui stayed at home for a few days. In the past few days, he has been with his parents, his second brother Yan San, and his younger sister Yan Xiaoli, enjoying this family happily. Except for entering the jade pendant space at night to practice for a while, the rest of the time is completely an ordinary ordinary person.
Yan Bugui actually knows that since he has embarked on the road of cultivating immortals, just as Grandpa En said, this is a road of no return. In the future, I will get together with my relatives less and leave more, so I will naturally cherish this rare family happiness.
Whether it is the naughtiness of the second brother or the babbling of the younger sister, he firmly remembers that the concern and earnest teaching of his parents is also remembered by Yan Bugui.
If nothing else, the joy of this life is enjoyed once and for all, and even if you miss it in the future, you can only bury it in your heart.
In the past few days at home, Yan Bugui also went out with his father to water the crops with manure, and Yan Bugui originally had to pick up the dung bucket with his father. After all, now Yan Bugui's block also looks like a little adult, and his strength is not comparable to mortals. But no matter what Yan Bugui said, Yan's father didn't let him pick it, so he picked it into the ground himself, and at most let Yan Bugui help water the crops.
Come to think of it, in the eyes of Yan's father, his son is only 12 years old and 3 months away, and he is still a child, whether he cultivates immortals or cultivates, he is still a child, how can he be willing to let his child fall into gravity.
Looking at his father's hard work, Yan Bugui actually wanted to cast a spell to water all the crops with a "cloud and rain technique", but when he thought about it, his father would definitely say that the rain and manure nourished the crops.
Besides, Yan Bugui is not such a high-profile person, and it is better to interfere less in mortal affairs. So let my father do it, and I also work with my father, and enjoy this family joy at the same time, I can also feel the harmony with nature, so why not do it?
In this way, Yan Bugui enjoyed a few days of family fun at home, that is, Yan Bugui also understood the poverty of life at home in the past few days.
When leaving, Yan Bugui used the 'Fire Spirit Technique' to bake five ginseng plants with less years in the space and took out the jade pendant space. Two plants were given to parents to keep in case of emergency. In addition, one was left for the parents to give to the uncle, and the other two were kept for the second uncle's house on the way back, one was kept for the second uncle's house, and the other was for the second uncle to exchange for some silver to give his parents a better life.
Yan Bugui finished explaining these and left reluctantly.
Both parents and the second brother have longing and blessings for Yan Bugui's departure, so there is no tearful parting scene. But Yan Bugui was still very reluctant in his heart, after all, he also knew that if he could go home once in the future, it would be considered a time.
However, the little sister is still a child, but she refuses to let go of Yan Bugui. After the mother finally coaxed the little sister, the little sister shook her little hand to say goodbye to Yan Bugui and called "Duoduo", and she didn't forget to say "sugar candy" in her mouth. Yan Bugui understood that it was the little sister who was still reciting the taste of the elixir.
