Chapter 77: Parents Come to the Yurt
It is a little farther from the lantern gacha to the grazing point in Ajinai than from the Sarentai Gacha to the grazing point. The old couple set off before dawn, and there was no other stop on the road except to rest their horses at noon. Towards dusk, the two had already seen their son's yurt.
Agina had just herded the sheep into the pen, and quickly got into the yurt to find the plastic bucket and pour the wine into a glass bottle. Then he got out of the yurt, took a sip of wine, and lay on the ground, whether it was cold or damp, it was estimated that even if there were stones and straw sticks, he couldn't feel it.
According to the previous grazing time, Agina would not have driven the sheep back at this point, and the sheep would eat well when the evening was cool. "People must not be rich without wealth, horses must not eat night grass and not fat", and the same is true of sheep, they cannot eat when the weather is hot. These days, Agina is not in the mood for the sheep, as long as the wine bottle he carries with him is empty, even if the sun is still high, he will drive the sheep back - the purpose is to return to the yurt to fill the wine bottle.
The flock of sheep did not have enough to eat, and they "bleated" in the pen. Agina didn't care, he just drank, he just imagined the days with his son in his mind, and he only imagined that as long as he got some sleep, Asgen and Toya would come to him in a Lehrer......
…………
"Ride-huh-"
Is there really a car coming? Is it really Matoya and Asgen back?
Agina sat up suddenly. Drunken and hazy, there was indeed a carriage parked in front of the yurt. Yes? It can't be a dream, right?
"Asgen—Toya—" Agina shouted, staggering to her feet.
Bai Chaolu and Gao Wa both stopped there and looked at the man in front of them in surprise - was he really his son Bai Ajinai? Why is the beard so long? Why is your face so thin? Why are your eyes so demented?
Aginai is weird, is it my Asgen and Toya? Why are you so tall? How is it so old?
Gao Wa cried first and shouted: My son-
Agina was shocked, who is the person who came, why do you call me my son? Take advantage of it, right?
Bai Chaolu ran forward, grabbed his son who was about to fall, and shouted: Aginai——
The old man was already choked up, and there was nothing more to say.
Agina thought to herself: This voice is familiar, huh? Who is this old man?
"Dad-Mom-" Trying to open her eyes, Agina finally recognized it, wasn't it her father and mother? As soon as her parents screamed, Agina really cried like a child.
Gao Wa hugged her son and cried bitterly, and Bai Chaolu beat his chest......
The big black dog "Hari" recognized the owner's parents. It didn't scream, but circled around the three of them twice, and then ran to a high ground to take on its duty of vigilance.
It was the most relaxing day for Agina in a while, and in front of his parents, the child who lost his child cried uncontrollably. Bai Chaolu did not interrupt the mother and son, quietly went over to unload the carriage that came, settled the horses pulling the cart to graze, and then got into the yurt.
The wind turbine can be turned, and some electricity is stored during the day, and lighting is not a problem. Bai Chaolu turned on the electric light, and the yurt lit up, but when he saw all this in front of him, his heart was like a knife! Is this still a yurt? Is this still a home? Is this still where people live? It's so messy that there is no place to put your feet, the bedding is not folded, the basin is facing the sky and the bowl is facing the ground, except for the musty smell is a strong smell of wine. What kind of life is Agina living?
Bai Chaolu walked out of the yurt, looked at the sky, stretched out his arms, and knelt on the ground reverently: Immortal God, you have pity on my hard-working son! Give him a warm home......
…………
Bai Chaolu and Gao Wa stayed at the pastoral site.
Early the next morning, Bai Chaolu did not alarm the sleeping Aginai, opened the door of the sheepfold alone, and the flock of sheep that had already "bleated" for a night rushed out of the "cage" as if crazy, and marched towards the grassland with the most abundant pasture in memory.
The big black dog "Hari" is really too humane, and has become the most powerful assistant of the old man Bai Chaolu, helping to drive the sheep to the pasture. The old man patted the head of "Hari" lovingly and said, "Hari", you are obedient, watch the sheep well, I will go back to the yurt to have a look, and I will come in a while. Don't run around.
"Hari" and "Wangwang" answered very simply.
"What a good dog." Bai Chaolu walked to the yurt with confidence.
…………
Gao Wa got up and started tidying up the house and making breakfast. Agina is still asleep, maybe he has drunk too much, or the arrival of his parents has made him more reliable and secure. Therefore, he wants to live in a "dream" with "peace of mind" and does not want to wake up......
Bai Chaolu picked up a broom and swept away the garbage in front and back of the yurt. He went in again and found the pliers and came to the sheepfold, and tightened the loose wires one by one.
Breakfast was ready, and Gao Wa wanted to call Aginai but was stopped by Bai Chaolu. Gao Wa was puzzled, and Bai Chaolu pulled her out of the yurt before speaking: Let your son sleep, it is estimated that he has not slept so peacefully for a long time.
Gao Wa was about to cry, but Bai Chaolu hurriedly said: Don't cry! We didn't come all this way to cry!
Gao Wa held back, and Bai Chaolu said again: Hurry up and prepare some dog food, "Hari" must be hungry with Aginai these days. I'll bring it over to me when I'm herding the sheep in a moment. Alas, what a good dog, who suffered with his master.
When the old couple entered the yurt, they both tiptoed and ate breakfast gently, not even daring to chew. After that, Bai Chaolu took the food for "Hari" and walked towards the grassland......
The eating appearance of "Hari" is very inconsistent with its temperament. It wasn't like this before, it was very gentlemanly, very arrogant, sitting and walking, and eating more deliciously.
Bai Chaolu looked at the gobbling up of "Hari", and his pity welled up in his heart, and he gently combed the thick long hair of "Hari", thanking it for its companionship and care for this family.
…………
By noon, Agina slept until she "woke up naturally". When he opened his eyes, his mother Gaowa had been sitting beside him and guarding. Agina was embarrassed, he was not good at expressing himself since he was a child, and he shouted "Mom", and there was nothing else to say.
Gao Wa said lovingly: Mom made a noise to you, right? Your dad went to herd the sheep. If you're sleepy, you can go back to sleep, and you don't have to worry about anything.
Agina didn't answer, got up and walked out of the yurt and went to the toilet first.
Gao Wa had already prepared the washing water, Agina plunged into the basin, and didn't come out for a long time, Gao Wa pulled him and shouted: Son, what are you doing here?
Agina didn't answer and began to wash her face.
Gao Wa turned around and went into the house and poured a full bowl of milk tea for Agina.
After washing his face, Agina did not enter the yurt, but sat in the carriage. Drinking the milk tea handed over by his mother, he squinted his eyes and looked into the distance blankly......
