"How old is your grandma?"
"My grandma is in her late sixties, almost seventy."
"Hey, that's really not young."
Nowadays, people who can live to sixty years old are considered relatively long-lived, especially for people in rural areas who do tiring farm work and have a shorter life expectancy.
Tian Tian nodded, said hello to his aunt and went home.
Tian Tian went home and played with An An for a while, and asked Old Mrs. Tian, who was in a bad mood, to go and rest for a while. At noon, she cooked some food for the four of them to eat. Tian Lilin was also at home.
However, Tian Lilin mostly stayed at his own home these days and only came over to eat at mealtimes.
After finishing his meal, Tian Lilin took a rest here. He had just learned about Grandma Lin's death, so he planned to stay here to accompany Grandma Tian and Tian Tian. Otherwise, Tian Lilin would not feel at ease with an old lady and a little girl living in such a big yard.
Tian Tian took An An to her room and slept there. Then in the afternoon, An An was looked after by Old Lady Tian while Tian Tian started to clean up the house.
Grandma Tian was not in a good mood, so Tian Tian told An An to be good and not to make her grandma angry. Tian Tian was doing things at home and found all the clothes she would need to wear when she went to Grandma Lin's house.
She hasn't shown up now, but when the burial and funeral procession comes, she will definitely show up, otherwise it would be unjustifiable. Now she is just waiting for the news from Lin Meiyu and the others.
Tian Zhuo also arrived at their team the next day. Tian Tian was a little scared when she saw Tian Zhuo coming back after taking a night train.
Tian Tian hurriedly made another bowl of hot noodles for Tian Zhuo.
After finishing his meal, Tian Zhuo hurried back to sleep. Tian Zhuo originally wanted to go directly to Grandma Lin's place, but Tian Tian said that they didn't know Tian Zhuo was back, so he should take this opportunity to rest.
After Tian Zhuo received the call yesterday, he immediately asked for leave from his boss. After asking for leave, he bought a ticket and came here right away. He sat on the train all night without sleeping. Now he really can't hold on any longer, so he listened to Tian Tian's words and went back to his room to take a nap.
Tian Tian didn't sleep for long. She woke up after about two hours. The man woke up and asked Tian Tian if she had called their eldest brother. Tian Tian said she had.
It was not until the third day after Lin Meiyu and the others left that he finally called the two of them and asked them to hurry over to Grandma Lin's place, as her funeral was about to take place. They could have a meal together then, and then he would ask Tian Tian to come back quickly.
After hearing this, Tian Tian went home and changed into the clothes she had found before. She gave An An a few more instructions and told Old Lady Tian that all the food was hot in the pot and she could just take it out when she wanted to eat.
After explaining everything, she and Tian Zhuo went to the roadside to wait for the bus. Soon the bus arrived. Tian Tian and the others paid and got on the bus and found a seat to sit down. Because there was neither a New Year nor a festival today, there were not many people on the bus, and no one was carrying chickens, dogs, etc., so the smell was also better.
Tian Tian was worried that she would get carsick, so she opened the car window and kept breathing in the fresh air outside.
It’s too far to ride by car, which is also one of the reasons why Tian Tian doesn’t want to go back to Grandma Lin’s house. She is so afraid of motion sickness that she will definitely fall ill every time she gets motion sickness.
Especially after giving birth, Tian Tian felt that she was more sensitive, and the smells and other things were infinitely magnified. She was also more prone to motion sickness.
The car had just moved a few steps and swayed a few times when Tian Tian began to lose control of herself when she smelled the gasoline, leather, and smoke in the car. She quickly put her head against the car window and forced herself to smell the fresh air outside.
Just when Tian Tian was about to give up, the car finally arrived at the station. She and Tian Zhuo jumped off the car and walked towards Grandma Lin's house in a familiar manner. There were not many people in the village at present, and most of them should have gone to help Grandma Lin.
Tian Tian hadn't been here for several years. When she walked to Grandma Lin's house, she looked around calmly.
You can tell from the people in their team that they all live a pretty good life.
Nowadays, many people can go out to work, and the money they earn in a day is definitely more than that earned during the busy farming season. They do farm work at home during the busy farming season, and go out to work during the slack farming season. Although the newly built houses are not particularly good, they are at least brick and tile houses, and no longer straw and mud houses like before.
When Tian Tian and his friends arrived at Grandma Lin's house, they found that it was out of place. The two families around it had all moved into new houses, and only Grandma Lin and her family still lived in the mud and straw house. The small yard was crowded with many people.
There was a large coffin in the middle of the yard, with a mourning tent on top of it.
Tian Tian and Tian Zhuo went over to light a stick of incense, then went into the house and asked if there was anything they could help with.
Although Tian Tian and their Grandma Lin's side were not seen by many people, there were still many people who had seen Tian Tian and could recognize her. When they saw Tian Tian coming back, they immediately surrounded her and asked her why she came at this time.
Tian Tian said that her child was too young and she was worried about leaving an elderly person and a child at home, and everyone understood.
He then pulled Tian Zhuo aside and asked him about his current job, how much he earned a month, and how his college life was.
After Tian Tian and Tian Zhuo said a few perfunctory words, they went into the house to find Lin Meiyu.
Lin Meiyu's eyes were still a little swollen, and she was still cooking in the kitchen. Lin Meishuang and Lin Meixia were also in the room. The two sisters were not in a very good mental state, especially Lin Meishuang and Lin Meixia. They had been favored by Grandma Lin since they were young, and had deep feelings for Grandma Lin. Now that Grandma Lin suddenly passed away, they found it a little hard to accept it. But this is the adult world. Although their loved one has passed away, there are so many guests outside, and they still have to cheer up to cook and entertain those who come to help.
"Mom, auntie, auntie." Tian Tian and Tian Zhuo greeted them.
Lin Meiyu turned around and saw Tian Tian, forcing a smile on her face, "You guys are here?"
"Mom, aunt, is there anything we can help you with?" Tian Tian asked.
She also knew that there was something wrong with the way she looked now. At least in the current environment, there was no trace of grief or sadness on her face.
