The cadre rest house is not too close to the compound, nor is it very far away, half an hour away, Jiang Leiyan took Xie Mingtu and the two to the courtyard where Jiang grandpa and grandma lived.
Some have turned yellow.
Su Xiaoman and Xie Mingtu met Jiang's grandparents.
Grandpa Jiang Ruojun, is a tall old man, with a straight body, old-fashioned, with piercing eyes, he is an old man who has passed 25,000 years; A kind-hearted little old lady, with short gray hair, spoke very kindly.
As soon as Grandma Jiang saw her two grandchildren and a beautiful granddaughter-in-law, she immediately smiled and pulled a few juniors into the house affectionately.
Even Jiang Ruojun, who has always been unsmiling in front of his children and grandchildren, now has a little smile in his eyes.
"From the other side, right? I came to see my grandparents."
"Oh, this is my little grandson, how handsome he is, we Limin can still give birth to such a baby, is it Xiaotu? And Xiaoman, it's amazing , my granddaughter-in-law is so pretty."
Grandma Jiang welcomed them in enthusiastically, Xie Mingtu and Su Xiaoman did not hide it, and told Grandpa Jiang and Grandma Jiang what happened at Jiang's house just now.
Including what the two of them said before, they are all repeated one by one.
Grandma Jiang sighed, "You sit, don't think too much, stay with grandparents."
"It's good if you don't recognize them, we'll call them uncle and auntie in the future." Grandpa Jiang suddenly made a loud noise from the side, even though he was old, "You just recognize grandpa and grandma. ."
Jiang Ruojun also has many dissatisfaction with this son and daughter-in-law. Before Jiang Yantang joined the army, there was already a fight, and then there was the matter of holding the wrong child.
I couldn't even look at my own flesh and blood, so I was secretly hugged, and I raised the son of that kind of woman as a baby for 18-9 years.
Jiang Ruojun is full of resentment. He and his wife have watched these children grow up for so many years. Xie Yazhi prefers the younger son and does not pay attention to the eldest and second. Say, not so much resentment.
Now that Jiang Yantang is not a child of the Jiang family, what Xie Yazhi said before has changed his taste immediately.
"I like banquet halls, most like the children of our Xie family."
"He doesn't look like the other brothers."
"Is he good?"
…how? Could it be that their Jiang family's seed is not enough? Are you going to raise a child from another family?
Before making a fuss to make Jiang Yantang not recognize their grandparents, it is just right, it is indeed not their grandson, and they do not have such a grandson.
Jiang Ruojun patted Xie Mingtu on the shoulder, "You are stubborn, just like when I was young."
Just came out of Jiang's house. At this time, he met Jiang's grandpa and grandma who were eager and kind, and Xie Mingtu felt a bit of warmth from his elders.
"Grandpa." He shouted with a smile.
"You brat, shout louder, or grandpa won't be able to hear."
Xie Mingtu shouted again.
Grandpa Jiang's face was full of creases. After laughing, he looked at the two grandchildren in front of him, and suddenly an old urchin said: "The second child said that you are good, you two Show me a fight."
Xie Mingtu: "…"
Jiang Leiyan: “…”
Grandma Jiang came out with a rolling pin, "If you guys dare to fight, all three of you will get out of the way with me, and Xiaoman and I will have dinner today."
Grandpa Jiang couldn't beat Grandma Jiang, so he had to give up his ambition to let his two grandchildren fight, and the three of them got together to play chess.
Su Xiaoman accompanies Grandma Jiang in the kitchen and cooks a table of dishes, most of which are Sichuan and Hunan dishes. Grandpa Jiang and Grandma’s house are not much, just a lot of spiciness, Grandma Jiang said : "Your grandfather likes spicy food, and he doesn't eat it without adding it. Does Xiaotu eat spicy food?"
"Eat."
"Grandma, make a sauerkraut fish soup."
"Okay, let's make another braised pork, your grandfather likes to eat fat, what does Xiaotu like to eat?"
Su Xiaoman lowered his head and thought, "He likes to eat everything."
I heard Grandma Jiang call Xiaotu Xiaotu for most of the day. Every time Grandma Jiang said a Xiaotu, Su Xiaoman added in her heart: Little Rabbit.
Bunny loves to eat everything.
"Xiaoyan also eats everything, these children are easy to feed." Grandma Jiang smiled blindly.
Su Xiaoman didn't think so.
"Grandma, let's do more."
Grandma Jiang nodded: "Of course you have to do more, your grandfather eats a lot."
Su Xiaoman nodded, Xie Mingtu and Jiang Erge ate a lot, five people can eat a meal like a group of people.
Su Xiaoman burned a large table of dishes with her, and went outside with plates and chopsticks. The three grandparents were still playing chess there. Second brother Jiang scratched his ears and cheeks, full of anger.
Because Grandma Jiang did not allow them to fight, Grandpa Jiang said that they would watch their brothers play chess.
Xie Mingtu said that he is not very good at chess. After all, he has never played chess a few times. Jiang Leiyan was overjoyed when he heard this. Can't get over him.
Grandpa Jiang said it's all right, let's go. Grandpa is watching you, meaning he wants to help.
So Xie Mingtu and Jiang Erge played three games, each time Xie Mingtu won, and Grandpa Jiang was beside him as a **** stick, giving Xie Mingtu a blind idea.
Second brother Jiang made an X in front of Grandpa Jiang after losing three games in a row. This time, he will definitely block this **** stirrer, "Grandpa, don't interfere, let me talk to my brother again. next round."
Grandpa Jiang waved his hand, "Okay, grandpa doesn't speak, Xiaoyan, you can't afford to lose, you don't have any stomach."
"Look, Xiaotu must have won."
Sure enough, Xie Mingtu won again.
"Brother, can't you let your brother win once? You didn't say you can't play chess, you liar!" Jiang Leiyan felt that the new little brother in front of him really hurt him heart of.
Xie Mingtu is very modest: "...grandpa taught me well."
Grandpa Jiang smiled happily beside him: "That's right, my little grandson is really eager to learn."
"Shit, I have been playing chess with my grandfather for so many years, how can he teach people how to teach people?!" Jiang Leiyan, who lost five games in a row, put his hands on his hips with anger.
Let's not talk about Xie Mingtu's reaction, Grandpa Jiang was immediately angry when he heard this, "You are the stinky chess basket. If you lose, you will be shameful, Xiaotu, go and fight him!"
Grandma Jiang took their three grandfathers and grandchildren to be strong men, "What are you fighting? After dinner, go and bring the dishes and chopsticks. We and Xiaoman also made a big pot of dumplings."
Several people sat around to eat together. Grandpa Jiang and grandma both liked the atmosphere of many people, but today they are very happy, grandma Jiang said: "In the past, this atmosphere was only available during the New Year. "
"The children are all grown up and it's hard to see each other."
Xie Mingtu smiled and scooped up a bowl of dumplings for everyone, Jiang Leiyan went to pour the vinegar, deliberately retaliated for secretly adding coriander to Grandpa Jiang's sauce dish, and he was slapped on the back of the hand by Grandpa Jiang.
Grandpa Jiang criticized: "You are a bad thing!"
He gave the coriander to Grandma Jiang.
Grandpa Jiang hates cilantro the most, but Grandma Jiang likes to eat cilantro, so cilantro is always kept in the yard and grown at home.
After saying that, Grandpa Jiang poured a lot of black bean curd into Jiang Leiyan's bowl. This is also Jiang Leiyan's most hated thing to eat. He can accept cooking with black bean fermented vegetables. If he is forced to eat it directly, he can have one Can't eat.
"Grandpa, you are too bad!" Jiang Leiyan picked out the tempeh inside and complained to Grandma Jiang: "Grandma, look at him, look at him, grandpa wasted food."
Grandma Jiang frowned and tutted her disgust twice, "I don't want to sit next to the two of you, it's better to take a small road and not pick anything."
Xie Mingtu's old vinegar bowl also had some **** shreds floating in it. Grandpa Jiang said that the men of the Jiang family wanted to eat spicy food, so he also poured some spicy millet.
Su Xiaoman was choked with tears by this super spicy millet.
"Manman..." Xie Mingtu looked at her with concern and wanted to wipe her.
Su Xiaoman simply rubbed his eyes for him, that's it, Xie Mingtu also shed tears with her, because she just cut Chaotian pepper.
Xie Mingtu blinked: "Manman your hand..."
Su Xiaoman laughed: "If you cut peppers, who asked you to run over by yourself! If you are a man, don't be afraid of being hot!"
Grandpa Jiang interjected: "That's it."
Do not live by yourself.
Hurry up and run to wash hands, Xie Mingtu accompanies her to wash hands.
The two big dumplings were made by Grandpa Jiang, they were ugly, just like the two big dumplings.
"Come and eat, your grandfather's wishes."
Su Xiaoman and Xie Mingtu had no choice but to bow their heads to eat Grandpa's wishes. One topped three, and the dumplings even had a spicy millet in the middle. This was really Grandpa Jiang's style.
"Today's dishes are much better than before. It's Xiaoman's craftsmanship." After a few bites, Grandpa Jiang praised.
He's tired of eating the dishes made by Grandma Jiang for so many years.
"Look, my wife, you should learn from young people."
Grandma Jiang kicked him under the table, you bastard! "In the future, you cook it yourself, don't eat what I cook."
"What's the point of eating alone?"
Grandma Jiang: "The food you cook will not be eaten by pigs."
Grandpa Jiang: "It hurts my heart that you say this, obviously old Zhou Xiaozhang also called me to go to school to cook."
Grandma Jiang's head is full of black lines: "I want you to cook Yikusi sweet rice."
"As long as you cook the most authentic, people can't eat it."
"I think you'd better not go, oh ho, other people's children, disgusting."
Listening to the bickering of the grandparents, Su Xiaoman and the others all laughed, the second brother Jiang ate a dumpling and said to the brothers and sisters next to him: "You must eat the rice cooked by grandpa, After you finish eating, you can eat anything else, it's all delicacies from the mountains and seas."
Su Xiaoman suddenly felt sour at this moment, she thought that Xie Mingtu hadn't eaten a few good meals since he was a child.
Xie Mingtu lowered his eyes and smiled, Su Xiaoman gave him a piece of braised pork, "Don't remember the bitterness, I will give you candy in the future.
"Thank you Manman." Xie Mingtu's eyes were gentle, and he honestly ate the braised pork.
Jiang Leiyan suddenly felt as if he had said the wrong thing, "Little brother is too thin, eat more."
Grandma Jiang said: "Yeah, Xiaotu is too thin, so I need to eat stronger."
Su Xiaoman: "Have you heard, let you eat more."
Xie Mingtu nodded, he looked at Grandpa Jiang: "Grandpa, cook it for me later, I want to taste Grandpa's craft."
Grandpa Jiang paused with his hand holding the bowl, and immediately refused: "No, I want to cook it for the boss and the second. You and Xiaoman eat what grandma made."
Jiang Leiyan: "Don't talk, I'll cook tomorrow!"
Grandpa Jiang: "Then let me do it! I want to make fresh dishes for my little grandson and daughter-in-law!"
Su Xiaoman, Xie Mingtu, Grandma Jiang: "…"
I don't know what happened to these two.
The Jiang family in the courtyard.
Jiang Limin, Xie Yazhi, and Jiang Yantang were eating at the dinner table at night. Jiang Limin lowered his head to eat without saying a word. Although Xie Yazhi asked Jiang Yantang a few words from time to time, he seemed a little absent-minded.
"Did you eat well in Qiaoxin Village?"
"What kind of village is that?"
…
Jiang Yantang answered one by one, and he frowned and answered another sentence. It was obvious that Xie Yazhi had asked this question three times, and he had answered it three times, but Xie Yazhi was completely absent-minded.
Have forgotten what she asked just now, maybe she didn't care about her answer at all, but was thinking about something else.
Xie Yazhi looked anxiously at the clock on the wall.
It was very late. She didn't eat two bites of food at night. She was not very happy and had no appetite when she saw Jiang Yantang, whom she was thinking of.
She secretly scolded the second child, the dead child, forgetting her temper. She even took her younger brother to be angry. She just returned home today, and she ran away without even having a meal. see you.
There was no sign of the three of them.
She waited all afternoon, but no one came back.
The new daughter-in-law said that directly to her. She was still full of anger and had nowhere to vent.
It looks like she won't be back today, maybe tomorrow.
Maybe at his grandparents' house, stay there for one night and come back tomorrow.
I asked Jiang Limin to ask, but he didn't ask. Originally came back for a few children, but Xie Yazhi went out yesterday and bought a lot of delicious, now popular biscuits and cakes, state-run restaurants Braised pork trotters made by the cook for help, braised elbows...
She also packed a few rooms in the house, and also prepared shampoo, hair oil, soap, clam oil, etc. for the rural daughter-in-law she had never met. If she didn't know the size, she would still like to give her Pick out some nice clothes.
Who knew that she would break up so unhappily as soon as they met, and the things she prepared were useless.
On those few cakes, Jiang Yantang ate two, Jiang Limin shook his head and refused to eat, and Xie Yazhi had no appetite.
Three people sat at a table to eat, which was even more strange than the atmosphere when Xie Yazhi and Jiang Limin were two.
A couple with one of their "god sons".
None of my biological children are here.
Xie Yazhi complained about her children, but when she looked at Jiang Yantang in front of her, she thought she would be happy, but she couldn't laugh at this time, she was flustered, always thinking of the one today Newly met child.
The more I think about it, the more I feel that he is so thin, thin and tall, much thinner than his two brothers, and I don't know how he grew up when he was a child...
They all said that the woman had beaten and scolded him since childhood. Also, how could she be good to him after stealing her child.
In such a poor village, he could not eat well, dress well, and he was not even allowed to read books. She said she wanted to strangle him...
"I finally called you Uncle Jiang and Aunt Xie politely. Manman and I just came to see you. Now that we have met, I won't bother uncles and aunts."
"I hope not to meet again in the future."
The child's icy words resounded in her ears, Xie Yazhi realized that his expression was very cold when he recalled it, looking at her was not like looking at her biological mother, he said It's the angry words, he is her own son, how could he not meet in the future.
Even if he hasn't read books, she won't let him go back to the country again, and he won't let him suffer again in the future, why can't this child accept another brother.
If there was no accident during the day, the family would sit here to eat in a good manner, eating a big meal in a lively manner, wouldn’t it be good to be with the beautiful family?
This kid...this kid is really...
She left without calling her mom.
Did she go that far? Did he hate her?
"People want to strangle your own son, but you are holding her son carefully."
, disgusting!"
Xie Yazhi was flustered, and she comforted herself that she would not. Now that she has found her own child, the child always recognizes her as her mother, so do they have to go back to the countryside again?
Stay with his grandma for a day or two before coming back.
Father and mother will feel bad for him, how can it be bad for him.
A meal for the three of them was tasteless and tasteless, and most of the food was left on the table. Fortunately, it is winter now, the weather is cold, and we can stay for another day. Tang went back to his room to rest, not in the mood to say anything else to him.
Jiang Yantang nodded silently, but also did not speak.
Just returned to Jiang's house today, his identity is very embarrassing, but fortunately Xie Yazhi treats him as usual, then Xie Yazhi and Xie Mingtu have a dispute, inevitably, there is a feeling in his heart that makes him spurn Anxiously.
It's just that in the meal just now, all the secret joy disappeared.
Xie Mingtu is Xie Yazhi's biological son. No matter how good Xie Yazhi is to him, he is not her biological son after all.
Facing Xie Yazhi just now, he wanted to persuade Xie Yazhi not to accept him as his adopted son, he should go back to his family, but he couldn't say these words.
He grew up in the Jiang family after all.
Back to the room at night, Xie Yazhi went to take a shower and put on soft pajamas. The lights in most of the rooms in the room were dim, making it look extraordinarily empty, but there was a rumor in the courtyard. After a few naughty noises from the child, Jiang Limin left a yellow lamp for her, covered her eyes with a quilt and rested, as if she had already fallen asleep.
Xie Yazhi had no desire to sleep, she shook Jiang Limin awake, lowered her voice and said, "It's such a time, how can you still fall asleep."
Jiang Limin opened his eyes and looked at her, "It's getting late, why can't you sleep? You won't go to work tomorrow?"
Xie Yazhi is a teacher in a middle school.
"I'm not in the mood to sleep, a few sons finally came back, and it ended up being like this. You are in the mood, but I'm not in the mood. I couldn't eat just now... Look at this what's the matter."
Jiang Limin sighed, "You found it all by yourself."
"What is it that I asked for it myself?" Xie Yazhi blew his beard and stared anxiously, "They must not have gone far, with his grandmother, you go to the dry rest tomorrow, Parents called over, and several children called back."
"I went to the vegetable market in the morning and asked that chef Sun to help me make some dishes. I didn't know what that kid likes to eat, so I made some of everything."
"Jiang Limin, what do you mean."
"I was thinking, don't think too much about things, the children are on his grandma's side, just let them stay there, since you have made a choice , those words have been said today, what's the point of doing anything else." Jiang Limin sat up, "Since you don't want to recognize his son, don't run away to make trouble, and people don't necessarily want you. Mom, he is still a descendant of the Jiang family after all, so let him follow his grandparents."
"What are you talking about, who said I don't recognize this son? He was born by me and looks like me, why is he not my son, I'm not good to him? Look at how many things I have been busy with for a few days, how many things I have prepared for him, how many things I have bought for him and still piled up in his room..."
"He didn't even call Mom, he called me Auntie."
Jiang Limin waved his hand, "Okay, fine, if you are so angry with him, then forget about me, or you won't have this son, anyway, so many dozen It's been like this for 20 years, and it's still the same without this child, you don't care whether he lives or dies, and he's not alive and happy."
Xie Yazhi bit her lip, she took a deep breath: "You talk in a weird way, Jiang Limin."
"You're the one who resents me."
"Do you think I did something wrong? You all think I did it wrong? These children come back, isn't my mother doing enough?"
Jiang Limin: "You want to quit your son, did I persuade you before? Is it useful?"
Xie Yazhi retorted: "I have raised him for nearly 20 years. Even if he is not my son, he is already my son."
Jiang Limin sneered, "But people don't treat your own son as a son."
"Forget it, I won't say it anymore, since you made a choice, the two of them are incompatible, they can't be brothers, if you choose a banquet hall, don't think about the other It's a child, and it's not good at both ends."
"Huh." Xie Yazhi sneered, "Now it's me who chose it again. After you kiss your son, you will call your uncle, and you will be happy when you hear it?"
"I never raised him, I'm sorry for him, I owe him, he called me uncle, am I qualified to blame him?"
