Chapter 38: The Return

"Mom, tomorrow Tao Xianwang and they won't come to our village to investigate, how can I explain to grandpa later?"

When he was about to arrive at Clear Water Bay, he asked Lin Daoqin solemnly and nervously.

Along the way, Zhuang Er imagined the various reactions of his grandfather and fellow villagers to Tao Xianwang's incoming, and also searched his stomach to find various excuses for answers, but he always felt that it was inappropriate.

Honesty is the most basic criterion that grandpa taught solemn to be a man since he was a child, and solemn never lies, even if it is a white lie, he has to think twice.

"You don't need an explanation."

Lin Daoqin replied calmly.

"I don't need to explain?"

He looked at Lin Daoqin solemnly and suspiciously.

"Yes, your grandfather already knew it in his heart."

"What about the folks?"

"The villagers also know it in their hearts."

Solemn himself in his heart, but he didn't understand it even more.

How did Lin Daoqin say that Tao Xianwang would not come tomorrow, grandpa understood in his heart? Do the folks know in their hearts?

"Big Mom, is it because tomorrow is the Midyear Festival?"

"Yes, not exactly."

Lin Qiaoyan was also confused by Lin Daoqin's answer.

"Big Mom, what you said is so profound."

Huang Fan couldn't help but sigh.

Although she is a doctor, she is still full of curiosity and awe of the mysteries of life and all the wonderful phenomena of nature.

The rapid development of life science has not been able to explain many primitive phenomena in nature and human society, just like yourself and these people in the car, these things that have personally experienced and happened around you these days, can you predict them? Can you know what they're going to say next? What's next?

Everything is expected, and everything is unknown.

Zhuang Yan, Lin Daoqin, Lin Qiaoyan and Huo Yan sat in Huang Fan's car.

Huang Fan and Yu Hui both had their own private cars, and Yu Hui's car was loaded with a lot of daily necessities and her grandmother's change of clothes, and only Lin Xi and her grandmother were seated.

Yu Hui couldn't figure out why her grandmother had to sit next to her? Holding Lin Xi's hand all the time?

Did grandma get too hard because of her parents' accident, and she was depressed for too long, and she had a brain problem? Think Lin Xi is me? Lin Xi and I don't look like each other at all, do you?

I saw that my grandmother was very conscious, and she seemed to know the solemn grandfather.

How could my grandmother know the solemn grandfather?

For as long as she can remember, my grandmother has lived alone in her own little world. I have never been to any other place except to go to the vegetable market, let alone go far to a small village in the mountains like Clear Water Bay.

So how did his grandmother know Grandpa Zhuang? What did she say to her solemn mother in the room? Coming out of the room, how did grandma become so happy?

Originally, it was just to live in Clear Water Bay for a few days to relax, but now she says that she wants to live in Clear Water Bay all the time, and she will be a person in Clear Water Bay for the rest of her life, and she will die in Clear Water Bay, which one is she singing?

"Grandma, in front of us is Qingshuiwan Village, have you seen that ancient tree? Grandpa Zhuang said that this ancient tree is more than 1,000 years old. ”

Lin Xi introduced to Grandma Yu Hui.

"Xiaoxi, grandma knows that this tree was planted by a handsome man surnamed Lin in the Tang Dynasty. At that time, he went east to the Daming Mountains, but unexpectedly fell into a heavy siege, all the soldiers were killed, and he was the only one who fled to Qingshuiwan. At that time, Qingshuiwan was a prosperous mountain village, and the villagers here were kind and honest, regardless of his safety, he rescued the handsome man and helped him escape from the mountain trail behind the village back to Ningzhou. Enraged, the rebels set fire to the villages of Clear Water Bay. After the marshal led reinforcements to quell the rebels, the chief of Qingshuiwan could not kneel in the face of a ruin, so he planted this tree at the entrance of the village, and his descendants were Qingshuiwan people for generations. ”

Grandma Yu Hui told the story, which surprised Lin Xi.

"Grandma, what you said is exactly the same as what Grandpa Zhuang said."

"Xiaoxi, we are all the descendants of the handsome, we must be worthy of the ancestors of Clear Water Bay, and we must protect the green mountains and clear waters of our Clear Water Bay."

Grandma Yu Hui put her arms around Lin Xi's shoulders and gently stroked her hair.

"Our Clear Water Bay? We are all descendants of the handsome? Grandma, how did you change your crepe person? Are you from Clear Water Bay? ”

Yu Hui was even more surprised by her grandmother's changes, grandma wouldn't be a crossover or a stand-in, right?

"Grandma, are you from our Clear Water Bay?"

Lin Xi couldn't help but ask, is this possible?

"Huihui, Xiaoxi, when you should know, you will naturally know, is the person standing in front of the tree your Grandpa Zhuang?"

Grandma Yu Hui's face was pressed against the car window and she looked out.

"Grandma, it's Grandpa Zhuang, everyone in the village has come out to greet you!"

"Huihui, stop now, stop now!"

It didn't mean that Hui parked the car steadily, and Grandma Yu Hui couldn't wait to open the car door.

"Hi girl, you're finally back."

"Brother Su, I don't have the face to come back."

"Hi girl, Clear Water Bay will always be your home."

"Brother Su, thank you, thank you, folks!"

Zhuang Su hurriedly stepped forward, his hands clasped tightly with Grandma Yu Hui's.

The two old men burst into tears and were excited.

"Brother Su, is this for me?"

Grandma Yu Hui saw that incense cases and offerings were placed under the ancient trees, and behind the incense cases was an old Taishi chair.

"Xi Meizi, you are the real elder of the Lin family in Qingshuiwan Village, and you should naturally accept all of us when you come back."

Zhuang Su came over and helped Grandma Yu Hui to sit on the Taishi chair.

"Brother Su, I am ashamed of Qingshuiwan and the Lin family, how can I be qualified to accept the visit of the villagers?"

"Hi girl, listen to me......"

"Dad, mother!"

Without waiting for Zhuang Su to finish speaking, Grandma Yu Hui rushed to the incense case and knelt down, tears raining down.

Grandma Yu Hui's real name is Lin Xizhen, and she is the daughter of the last patriarch of Qingshuiwan Village.

She was born beautiful, talented and intelligent, at the age of three she could memorize 300 Tang poems, at the age of five she could play the pipa well, and at the age of eight, she was proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and embroidered women better than middle-aged women.

Yu Deshui, a giant in Shuizhou, heard that there was such a strange woman as Lin Xizhen in Qingshuiwan Village, so he sat in a sedan chair and brought a security team to visit in person.

At that time, there were still two years before the liberation of Shuizhou, and Lin Xizhen was fourteen years old, and she had just become a big girl like a flower.

Yu Deshui, a Shuizhou bully, came to the door, and also brought a security regiment, light and heavy weapons in hand, the Qingshuiwan guerrillas evacuated urgently, and the Lin patriarch led the men of the whole village to meet them under the ancient tree.

"Patriarch Lin, I heard that your daughter's daughter is not only extremely beautiful, but also spiritually superhuman, full of pearls, can you take a glimpse of her beauty?"

"Lord Yu, the little girl is a rough person in the mountains and wilderness, and she can't get on the stage, and the rumors in the outside world are mostly false rumors, touting nothingness, don't believe it."

"Patriarch Lin, won't I give face?"

"Lord Yu, how dare the old man disobey you? It's just that the little girl is really very vulgar, and I'm afraid that it will hurt her. ”

"Patriarch Lin, do you want me to send someone to your house to arrest her?"

"Lord Yu, no, no, I'll call the little girl to come to see you."

Patriarch Lin was helpless and asked the villagers to bring a girl to Yu Deshui.

"You are the daughter of the Lin family?"

Yu Deshui looked up and down at the girl in front of him with a pair of goldfish eyes.

I saw that the girl was dressed in coarse cloth, her face was like a vegetable, her hair was unkempt, her eyes were dull, and her hands kept rubbing the corners of her clothes.

"I, I ......"

The girl was distracted and nervous.

"Patriarch Lin, you are so bold, you dare to take an ordinary woman to come and be your family's daughter? Come on, kill this girl for me! ”

"Mom!"

The girl screamed in fright and fainted to the ground.

"Daughter, my daughter!"

"Patriarch Lin, save my daughter. Yu, she is our daughter, please let her go! ”

Two middle-aged people, a man and a woman, rushed over crying, the middle-aged woman threw herself on the girl and kept shouting, and the middle-aged man kept begging Patriarch Lin and Yu Deshui.
