In this house, there is a couple who work from sunrise to sunset, living by farming.

The couple had a daughter, who had not yet been named, but only had a nickname, A-Yao, and in addition to that, in the midst of a famine, they adopted a pair of teenagers.

The boy also came from a farming family, and because of a rare famine, he was exiled here, and the couple had a good heart and adopted them.

The elder brother met the couple at sunset, and when the husband was young, he had been out and about, and he had some knowledge, so he named his brother Twilight.

The younger brother is a few years younger than the elder brother, and his figure is also a lot thinner, because he often likes to look at the clouds and get distracted, so he is called the cloud.

"Twilight, in a few days, you and Uncle Wang in the village will go hunting, you are not too young, it's time to learn a craft. At the dinner table, a family of five sat together, and after a long silence, the husband spoke, he was a taciturn man, with dark and rough skin.

Ah Yun and Ah Yao were silent, and the two silently pulled the rice grains in the bowl, and at the same time secretly raised their heads to look at Twilight.

"Daddy, Twilight is only thirteen years old, is it too early?" Although she was only in her thirties, the heavy farm work left a heavy mark on the young woman's cheek.

The husband drank all the tea in the bowl, chewing the few tea leaves in the tea bowl, he had discussed it with his wife last night, but he didn't expect that when it was time to really speak, his wife relented.

"Grandma, Abba is right, I'll go to Uncle Wang's tomorrow to learn to hunt!" Twilight ate all the rice in the bowl, his voice was still a little immature, and his wife who listened to it felt sad for a while.

"It's good if you know, it's good if you know. The husband poured the last bowl of tea from the teapot into the bowl and drank it all.

The wife was silent, just cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks on the table, and Yun and A-Yao jumped out of the chair and left the room, leaving only the couple and Twilight.

"Brother Yun, is Brother Twilight leaving? doesn't he want Abba and Auntie, and doesn't he want Brother Yun and Yaoyao?"

In the face of Ah Yao's question, Ah Yun didn't know how to answer, and he didn't know why Ah Dad brought up this matter today, he just knew that Grandma had been cooking fewer and fewer dishes recently, and the rice was getting thinner and thinner.

In the room, Twilight took a few steps back, knelt down and kowtowed to the couple nine times, he raised his head and said: "Twilight knows that the family has a big burden, and thanks to Abba and Aunt taking care of Twilight all these years, Twilight has not starved to death, and Twilight will not forget Abba and Aunt's love." ”

After finishing speaking, Twilight kowtowed a few more times, each time with a loud sound, and after the knock, a wisp of blood oozed from his forehead.

"Good boy, don't blame Grandma, your little sister is not in good health, and often asks for some herbs to condition her body, Ah Yun is too young, and Grandma has no ability, you Abba is really helpless alone" As she spoke, his wife hugged Ah Du and cried.

"Cry, cry, cry, cry, cry, what's the use, you know how to cry, you go out first. When the sound of his wife's crying became quieter, the husband spoke and kicked her out of the room.

Twilight and her husband are left in the room, the husband is smoking a hookah, and the sound of gurgling coming from the pipe is the only sound in the room.

"Twilight, do you blame Abba? Abba is useless, he really can't afford to raise three children" The husband, who was strict on weekdays, seemed to be ten years old in an instant at this time, and from between his eyebrows, he showed deep helplessness.

"Abba, Twilight knows the difficulties at home, and Twilight will not embarrass Abba and Grandma. Twilight kowtows to her husband a few more times, and he can only repay him for raising him.

Facing Twilight, her husband sighed deeply, he put down the hookah, walked up to Twilight, and helped Twilight up.

Looking at Twilight in front of him, he was strong and tall, not like a twelve or thirteen-year-old boy, but like a seventeen or eighteen-year-old youth.

"Your Uncle Wang and Abba, that is a lifelong friendship, you go to him, Abba rest assured! After a few years, Ah Yun is older, Ah Yao's body has improved, and I will go to pick you up. Her husband's words were plain, but the bitterness in them was heard in her ears and remembered in her heart.

"Twilight knows, Abba, I want to wait two days before going to Uncle Wang's place. Twilight looked up, he didn't cry, but tears kept falling from the corners of his eyes.

"It's out of the way, it's out of the way, if you want to stay, just stay for a few more days. The husband patted Twilight on the shoulder, picked up the hookah again, turned around and left the room, looking at his departing back, Twilight only felt that this was no longer the Abba who sheltered them from the wind and rain, he was already old.

Three days later, in the early morning, Twilight and her husband woke up early, and before the sun had risen, they had already packed their bags.

Twilight tweakly packed up his things, and he glanced at Yun who was still asleep, holding a wooden slingshot tightly in his hand, which was Yun's favorite toy, which Twilight had made for Yun for three days.

Leaving the room, Twilight walked over to Yao's bedside, where there were many brightly colored fruits on the table next to her bed, as well as a bowl full of honey that Twilight had collected for his little sister over the course of three days.

Gently closing the door, Twilight and her husband leave the hut, where a hill of firewood is piled up outside the hut that Twilight had chopped for his grandma.

"Abba, let's go, Uncle Wang will leave later. Twilight was carrying a small burden, and he looked at the silent Abba and urged.

The husband let out a long sigh and took Twilight away, and they were going to the house of a king surnamed Orion in the village, who had been in the mountains and forests all the year round, and although he was a little lonely, he was finally able to support himself, and he had returned to the village a few days before, and was going into the mountains again this morning.

"Grandma, when will Brother Twilight come back?" After Twilight left, Yao and Yun would ask their grandma the same question every day or two.

"Come on, wait for Ah Yun to grow up, wait for Ah Yao to get better. Grandma's answer has never changed, and whenever this happens, Abba will smoke a hookah and look at the sky.

Time flies quickly, Abba's health is getting worse and worse, Grandma's eyes are getting worse and worse, Ah Yun has picked up the burden of the family, Ah Yao's body is gradually improving, and she has slowly learned to do what Grandma should do, but after all these years, Ah Twilight has not come back.

"Brother Yun, did you say Brother Dui, will he come back next year?" Ah Yao and Ah Yun are already married, and Ah Dad and Ah Ma are too old to lie in bed.

"He should be back, we are waiting for him here. Ah Yun hugged his wife, and he, like Ah Yao, waited for Ah Twilight to return.

Abba and Aunt's graves are not far away, and at the beginning of each year, Ah Yun and Ah Yao will go to worship, and they also gave birth to a son and a daughter, and they also became Abba and Aunt.

Ah Yao has also learned to mend and renovate her children's shabby clothes, she knows that when there is not much food, she will put more water to make the food thinner and more, and she will gently cover her children with quilts in the middle of the night

Ah Yun has learned the farm work that Abba can do, he is not very good, often after a day of work, he will have back pain, he will also teach the child when he is disobedient, but he will never spank the bottom

"Daddy, do you think he will come back in a few years?"

"We waited for him. Ah Yun looked at the clouds in the sky, just like when he was a child.

"What, you said Twilight, we'll wait for him. After a while, Ah Yun said to himself again, he was too old to remember what others had said and what he had said.

Ah Yun couldn't remember the way home, and it was often Ah Yao who led him back.

"Go home, go home, go home, my house is over there. ”

"No, no, my family is over here!"

Ah Yun couldn't remember how many times he had argued with Ah Yao about the direction of going home, he clearly remembered that going home was in this direction, but when he walked back, he felt that it was that direction.

"Let's go, let's go, let's go home, go home. After Ah Yao waited for Ah Yun to wander a few times, she took Ah Yun's hand, and the two of them walked towards the hut step by step.

The child has built several houses, but Ah Yao and Ah Yun still stay in the old house.

"Let's go, let's go home, go home and wait. ”

"Dead old woman!

"Let's go home. ”

"Dead old woman, why are you going this way, our house is over there!"
