He quickly came forward to take care of the fish and said to his daughter and son-in-law, "Hurry up and light the fire. Your eldest sister might be back soon..."
Yang Aiguo suppressed his anger.
Followed my wife to the kitchen
…
Zhu Lihua felt noticeably happier after visiting her youngest daughter.
The family finally arrived at Zhujiaba before sunset.
A short old man with white hair was looking around at the village entrance, leaning on a wooden stick.
His eyes kept falling on the people coming and going.
Expectation flashes by, disappointment flashes by.
Passersby couldn't help but joked, "Grandma Guo, it's getting dark, what are you doing guarding the village entrance..."
The old man smiled and uttered two words tremblingly.
"Waiting for someone."
"Then you're mistaken. Today is only the first day of the new year. You have to go back to your parents' home tomorrow..."
The old man looked into the distance.
He said to himself, "I can't be wrong, it's time to come back..."
This stubborn old woman must be out of her mind.
Passersby shook their heads and didn't bother to pay attention to her.
Zhu Lihua saw the familiar figure from a distance.
His white hair was particularly conspicuous in the night.
When I left at the beginning of the year, the old man didn't look so haggard.
The woman covered her lips tightly.
Waiting for that unspeakable emotion to subside.
Then I shouted "Mom!!!"
The old man paused, then staggered and trotted two steps.
Her eyesight wasn't very good anymore, so she couldn't see clearly. In the vast darkness, she could only make out a few dark shadows.
But that sound is real.
It’s her Lihua.
"Is that Lihua? You're back!" The old man came quickly towards them, and Goudan took the lead and rushed to the front.
Supported the old man.
"Grandma, please take it easy..."
The old hand, as thick as old tree bark, tightly grasped Goudan's arm. The old man tried to open his eyes wide and stared at the young man in front of him.
He was just like his own grandson.
The old woman cried and laughed and said, "I am so happy to have you back. Grandma missed you so much."
The old man took out three rock candies from his pocket with trembling hands.
Distribute them to the children one by one.
When he came in front of the well-behaved Qin Qing, the old man had some doubts on his face.
Qin Qing saw the old man's sad face.
It seems like she is not in the same age group as Old Lady Lu.
I sighed in my heart.
The wise man greeted her, "Grandma!"
This cry made the old man even more confused.
She looked at her daughter in surprise and said, "This is Qingqing..."
Why did it suddenly change?
She is so pretty that she doesn’t even look like the children from the Qin family.
Zhu Lihua took her mother's hand.
Touching the cracked scars on my hands, I felt so sad that I almost wanted to cry.
The woman whispered, "It's a long story, Mom, it's like this..."
The woman told her old mother in detail all the things that happened on the way to escape the famine, including the good things she met after adopting Qin Qing. She told her mother every detail, for fear of leaving a bad impression on the old woman.
After Mrs. Guo heard what her daughter said.
Wipe away the tears from the corners of your eyes.
He quickly waved his hand and called the girl to his side.
With a loving look in his eyes, he said, "He is a lucky child. He has a destiny with your Qin family!"
That’s why things will get smoother and smoother.
The elderly have eaten more salt than they have eaten rice.
I naturally have a longer-term perspective than them.
Then he patiently told his daughter to be nice to others.
The group slowly walked to the front of the large courtyard.
Just opened the door.
A basin of water was poured out to wipe the trouser legs.
The man cursed, "What time is it? Why haven't you cooked yet? Just wait for my old bones to serve you..."
The old man's eyes lit up with joy when he saw the old woman suddenly coming back, but his face suddenly became long when he saw Zhu Lihua and the others behind her.
He slammed the door shut.
