How did the sheep get caught out of nowhere?
And it was a female sheep capable of giving birth; that was the old woman's lifeblood...
Then she learned that the sheep had climbed over the fence and almost hurt the old lady, so the old lady killed it in a fit of anger.
I must say, the old lady is in great shape...
Even so, is it really necessary to cut off the food so that everyone has to eat it together?
Would it be more cost-effective to sell it? After all, the old lady is so poor, and her children are just so-so.
Is he really getting senile?
The old lady then said that she was perfectly lucid and had been troubling their family to take care of her. What was wrong with slaughtering one sheep? She would be happy to slaughter the other two lambs as well.
The family was moved to tears.
"Auntie..."
"Grandma Yu..."
Without further ado, everyone happily busied themselves with tasks so that they could enjoy a whole roasted lamb feast as soon as possible.
Good heavens, it's been so long since I've had roasted whole lamb...
Everyone was poor, and the animals they raised were either used for feasts on major holidays or sold at the market.
Who would dare to be so extravagant?
Is this really normal?
That's definitely not normal.
I thought of the old lady's three unfilial children.
One of the villagers suddenly felt that he had discovered the truth.
"Second Aunt, please don't do anything rash! Tie Niu and the others... we'll try to persuade you again, they definitely won't abandon you."
After he said that, the others also felt that he made sense. They expressed their concern for the old lady and advised her not to think so negatively, to look forward, and so on...
"Stop! You can all relax. I'm being too optimistic. Tie Niu and the others aren't unfilial; they're just too busy with work to support their family. As their mother, I understand..."
The others' lips twitched slightly.
You really have a very open mind...
“I realized it when I was slaughtering the sheep. They don’t have time to come back to see me, so I packed my things and went to find them.”
The group of people looked on in astonishment.
"ah?"
"You're so old, and you don't know anyone here... Can you really travel that far? Will you be able to adapt to life in a big city?"
"Yes, I've heard the air in the city is really unpleasant..."
"Do you know how to take a train?... "
Yu Shuang, however, did not take it to heart and confidently said:
"I can't just ask the staff. If I can't find my son, I can ask the police to help me look for him..."
That seems to make sense...
None of them expected this.
Hey, the old lady may not be educated, but she's quite clever.
Next, Yu Shuang wanted to sell off all her livestock and crops at a low price.
She raised money for the trip to the city to find her son.
"Auntie, don't worry. We all support you. We'll take all your livestock and crops!"
"Grandma Yu, I still have an old cell phone. I was going to sell it as junk, but I'll give it to you. I'll teach you how to use it later. Remember to call home if you have any problems."
"..."
Everyone worked together to help Grandma Yu return to the city to find her son.
Amidst the laughter and conversation, the whole roasted lamb was cooked to perfection.
Mmm, it smells delicious…
If it weren't so extravagant, they would love to do this every year.
A whole roasted lamb and a large pot of lamb offal soup were eaten so much that even when everyone was stuffed, they couldn't finish sharing it all.
To avoid waste, Yu Shuang had them pack some up to take with them.
After eating and drinking their fill, everyone had a smile on their face, taking some food and some with them.
Happiness is that simple.
...
Two days later, Yu Shuang finished taking care of things at home and boarded a tricycle to go to town.
A small family in the town.
Zhang Fangfang heard the knocking, opened the door, and was immediately stunned.
"Mom? What brings you here?!"
At the entrance, the septuagenarian woman smiled broadly and picked up her luggage bag.
"Of course I've come to stay with my daughter. I'm just an old woman at home, and I'm very lonely. I don't know how many more years I have left to live, so I must cherish the remaining time and enjoy my retirement."
Zhang Fangfang looked anxious.
"Then you can't come to my house! Why don't you go to the big city and find my eldest brother and third brother's family?"
"The big city is so far away, and the roads are so complicated. It's nowhere near as close or easy to find as your place... I'm your own mother, what's wrong with me coming to your house to enjoy a few days of peace and quiet?"
Yu Shuang said, then pushed her aside and went inside on her own.
Zhang Fangfang, who had just finished mopping the floor that morning, gasped in shock without even taking off her shoes.
He grabbed the old lady and pulled her back.
"Mom, Mom!... My in-laws live with us, and you know what kind of temper they have. Our house is already cramped enough; we really can't fit you in. Please, just say you're going to the market in town and want to stop by for a bit. You'll leave right away..."
Without a word, Yu Shuang pulled her hand away and slammed her hand on the table, saying:
“Now that I’m here, there’s no reason for me to just stay for a short while and then leave. It’s only natural for me to stay at my daughter’s house.”
Zhang Fangfang almost lost her balance and had to grab the wall next to her for support.
That old woman is quite strong.
"mom…"
Yu Shuang had already arrived in the living room, where an old man was leisurely sitting on the sofa watching TV, and another old woman was busy in the kitchen.
"Who is it? Oh, it's my mother-in-law! Long time no see..."
The elderly couple from the Sun family exchanged a few polite words.
I just don't really like them, and I'm too lazy to even invite them to sit down.
Yu Shuang greeted them familiarly.
He didn't treat himself like an outsider, finding a place to sit and pouring himself some water.
The elderly couple were stunned.
This old lady really doesn't consider herself an outsider!
