Chapter 820: A Different Life
Mother Jia saw Grandma Liu greeting her, and seeing that Grandma Liu was an old woman of the same age as herself, she couldn't help but bend down slightly and say hello to Grandma Liu.
She was busy with Zhou Rui's family, who came into the room next to her, and brought a chair to let Grandma Liu sit.
How could that board have seen such a big battle today?
The children of the poor family who came out of a small family are young and young.
I saw this room full of jewels, and a large group of girls and maids dressed in rich brocade clothes.
I'm still a little timid.
First, Ban'er didn't know how to deal with such a scene.
Second, Ban'er has grown a lot older than the last time he came, and he already has concepts such as respect and humility in his mind, and he doesn't know how to greet him.
For a while, Ban'er had to stand behind Grandma Liu, not talking much, just watching.
Grandma Liu saw that Ban'er didn't speak, and her heart was naturally happy.
It's the first time she has experienced such a big battle, if it weren't for her age and knowledge, I'm afraid she wouldn't be able to catch this scene.
Jia Mu glanced at Ban'er and saw that he was young, so she ignored him.
Mother Jia just looked at Grandma Liu and said, "Old in-law, how old are you this year?" ”
Hearing this, Grandma Liu hurriedly stood up from her position with a "whoosh", stood up straight, and replied with great respect and humility: "I am seventy-five years old this year." ”
Jia Mu couldn't help but be surprised when she heard this.
Confucius said that when a person is over 70 years old, it is rare in ancient times!
Therefore, the age of 70 is also called the age of antiquity.
Du Fu of the Tang Dynasty wrote in the poem "Two Songs of Qujiang" in the "Caotang Poems": "Wine debts are common everywhere, and life is rare for seventy years." ”
For a while, Jia Mu also smiled and said: "It's rare, it's rare, it's rare!" I really didn't see it just now, you're so old. ”
Immediately, Jia Mu turned her head to look at the people serving in front of her, and said, "Look at this grandma, she is so old and so healthy. I'm a few years older than me. I'm going to be so old that I don't know how to move, I can't move. ”
Seeing this, Grandma Liu also smiled and said: "Those of us are born to suffer, and the old lady is born to be a rich and noble wife." If all of us were like this, no one would want to do the work of the crops in those fields, and we would not have to abandon all the fields? ”
Jia Mu couldn't help but shake her head, chuckled, and said, "What you said also has this truth." Are your eyes and teeth okay now? ”
Grandma Liu also continued to respond: "It's okay, it's just that the left molars are active this year, and they are not very easy to call, and when they eat, they are not very flexible." ”
Jia Mu nodded and said, "You are old, I am also old, and I am useless."
You're better than me, my eyes are now flowery, I can't see clearly, my ears are deaf, my hearing is not very dexterous, and even the memory in my brain is almost gone, I am confused all day long, and I don't wake up much.
I don't remember any of your old relatives.
When my relatives came, I was afraid that people would laugh at me, and I wouldn't do it, but I chewed and ate two bites, slept for a while, and laughed with these grandchildren when I was bored. ”
Grandma Liu also knows that this rich life is indeed better than their croppers, but it is also easy to raise people into fools.
(
Rich and rich are good.
The poor have the sorrow of poverty.
If there is a choice, Grandma Liu will definitely choose Jia's mother's life, not because she is so old now, she is still busy in the fields, planting crops, busy with farm work, and she will not have peace until she is old.
Immediately, Grandma Liu smiled at Jia's mother and said, "This is the old lady's fortune." If you want to come to the old lady who was born rich and noble, and now she is full of children and grandchildren, and she will be carefree, safe and wealthy all her life. When you're busy, you can't take a break for a while. ”
Mother Jia looked at Grandma Liu, shook her head, and said, "What kind of blessing do you enjoy, it's just an old waste." ”
Everyone knew that Jia Mu was in Versailles, so everyone laughed.
Jia's mother said, and said with a smile: "I just heard the third granddaughter say, you came to visit this time, and you brought a lot of melons and vegetables from the grange, so I told her to clean up quickly, I was thinking about a melon and vegetables freshly picked in the field to eat." and what you buy outside is not as delicious as what you buy in your fields. ”
Grandma Liu also smiled and said: "These are all worthless ambitions, for the old lady, it's just to eat fresh and taste the taste." According to our people, we are tired of eating all year round, and we just want to eat big fish and meat, but the family is not rich, and it is good to be able to eat a few mouthfuls of coarse grains. Even if you want to get something to eat, there is no condition. ”
Jia's mother has always been used to being rich and noble, and she didn't go to the top of the grange to walk.
At this moment, when Mother Jia learned these news from Grandma Liu, she couldn't help but sigh a lot, her heart softened slightly, and she said: "Since you are willing to come over today and recognize our relatives, don't go empty-handed." If you don't dislike me for not being good here, you can stay for a day or two before you go back.
We also have a garden, and there is fruit in the garden, so you can taste it tomorrow and bring some back home, and you will not travel so far to see your relatives in vain. ”
Jia Tanchun, who was waiting next to him, saw that Jia's mother liked this Grandma Liu, and planned to leave her for two more days, so he was also busy persuading Grandma Liu to stay, and persuaded him to stay: "Although our place here is not bigger than the courtyard above your Zhuangzi, there are always one or two empty rooms."
You can stay for two more days, tell our old lady about the news stories you have there, and accompany our old lady to relieve her boredom and pass the day. ”
Jia's mother was also moved by Jia Tanchun's proposal.
She is old, and she can't talk about what she says with Jia Tanchun and others.
There is a generation gap, both ancient and modern, and Jia Tanchun and others do not often play with Jia's mother because of Jia's mother's age.
Therefore, if Jia's mother can have such a few years of age next to her in the past two days, it will be a happy thing.
Speaking of which, in the days of wealth and nobility, Jia's mother is very familiar with it, and she doesn't know anything about this rural thing.
Man always loves the rare.
Therefore, Mother Jia was also interested in Grandma Liu's life in the countryside, and wanted to hear Grandma Liu talk to her about the living conditions of people in the countryside, so she was also busy laughing and said: "Three girls, don't make fun of her."
She is from the township, honest, duty, where you are so funny. ”
