Chapter 217

It's not that Shen Haitao hasn't made efforts in recent years. At the beginning, he also went home during the Spring Festival, but all waiting for him are watching coldly or ignoring directly.

In the following years, he also sent some things home, but in a few days, he would mail them back intact. Later, Shen Haitao was completely sad and said that tiger poison didn't eat children. Did his mother really deny his son?

Red bricks and green tiles, thick snow on the roof and courtyard, and three small trees standing side by side in the small field where vegetables are planted in the front yard. An apricot tree, a plum tree, a hawthorn tree, and even the northeast corner of the wooden fence are still damaged, which has not been repaired, and there is no change from Shen Dapeng's childhood memory.

This is Grandma's house in Pingshui town. The cottage courtyard is smaller and shabby than grandma's house.

"Woof woof..."

Several hasty and crazy dog barks called back Shen Dapeng's memory.

"Koizumi, what's your name? Shut up."

Looking at a simple kennel in the corner of the bungalow, a Jingba dog was jumping and jumping. One finger of the thick and thin iron chain was enough to tie it firmly, but it was still rattling desperately. It was obvious that he didn't know the three of them.

Koizumi is the nickname of this Jingba dog. Its full name is Koizumi sechiro. After Shen Dapeng shouted it out, he also regretted it. He still remembered that the dog's original name was "tycoon". Later, because Koizumi fought against the country everywhere after he came to power, his grandmother renamed it Koizumi.

At this time, he shouted Koizumi's name, and Jingba dogs were unwilling to admit it. It was understandable that he shouted more and more fiercely.

"Who? What are you doing teasing my dog? "

A slightly old voice came, and then the wooden door was pushed open. Grandma's slightly bent figure came into view, "Hai... Dapeng, Fengyun, why are you back?"

The first thing grandma saw was her son, but after all, she felt that the word "Haitao" was like a lump in her throat and stiff. In the end, she didn't shout out or pay attention to Shen Haitao. Instead, she enthusiastically walked up to Liu Fengyun's mother and son, somewhat surprised and even more excited.

"Mom, isn't it the new year? Dapeng said he missed you. We came back specially to have a look and give you a new year."

Liu Fengyun took the old man's arm and helped him carefully. His feet were covered with ice and snow. For fear that the old man would be unstable and fall again, his old arms and legs could not stand the toss.

"Dapeng, ouch, my grandson is tall again."

Grandma's voice was choking, but she came close to Shen Dapeng. She looked up at Shen Dapeng with a height difference of about one meter. She wanted to pet her grandson's head, but found that she couldn't touch it.

"Grandma, I miss you."

Shen Dapeng's tears swirled around the reddish circles of his eyes. If he raised his head strongly, he might not fall down, but looking down at his grandmother with white hair and wrinkled face, every drop of tears could not be controlled.

A deep hug, his head buried between grandma's shoulder and neck, smelling grandma's familiar but annoying smell of coal fire burning, but he felt very relieved at this time.

"Dapeng is good, good. It's all guys. What are you crying about? Men don't shed tears easily."

Grandma's hands, which could not be straightened, finally rubbed her grandson's little brain, but the calluses and cracks in the palm and finger belly would pinch her hair from time to time, causing Shen Dapeng pain.

But Shen Dapeng didn't dodge. He still hugged his grandmother tightly. He remembered clearly that grandma spent the whole morning picking the grass and fruit for him and mixed it with white sugar. It was called a sour, sweet and delicious fruit.

In order to coax him not to cry, grandma caught a frog from the rice field with a white line tied to his leg and let him drag and play. Later, he cried because the frog died.

The result was grandma again. I didn't know where to get a sparrow to play with him. Later, I learned that grandma sprained her ankle in order to catch the sparrow.

Before uncle didn't fight and hurt people, and before his father didn't annoy grandma because he didn't help uncle, his grandmother in his memory was always a strong and kind old man. At least, he was extremely spoiled by Shen Dapeng.

"It's cold outside. Come in. I've burned firewood and the Kang is hot."

Grandma also had red eyes. She dragged Liu Fengyun with one hand and Shen Dapeng with the other. She hobbled into the house, but from beginning to end, she only said one word to her son, that is, the word "sea". She didn't even call out her full name, and she always chose to ignore it.

But when he turned around, Shen Dapeng clearly saw that grandma's eyes left a line of muddy tears. It can be seen that grandma's heart knot has not been untied, but the thoughts in her heart are true!

Shen Haitao stood quietly outside the door for a long time and breathed a sigh of annoyance, but looking at his mother's old face, his heart was stirred by all kinds of tastes. He watched his breath fly away and slowly followed him into the house. As soon as he entered, he heard his mother calling.

"Chunfang, in the evening, you can buy more vegetables, a chicken and a fish after work. By the way, ask Shang Dongmei to come back early!"

Grandma hung up the phone and hurriedly took out her fried melon seeds and peanuts, as well as Shen Dapeng's favorite orange fruit candy as a child, and secretly stuffed six or seven yuan into Shen Dapeng's hand.

Listening to the busy voice on the phone, my aunt wondered. The old man has always been frugal. He will buy chickens and fish only for the new year, and he has to choose small ones and strips. How can he buy them after the new year's Eve? Guests at home?

Chunfang in grandma's mouth is the aunt, while Dongmei is the sister-in-law. Grandpa worked in the team when he was young and had a car accident. Grandma was widowed when she was young, so she had only two sons and two daughters.

Shen Chunfang, the eldest aunt, is now a tax collector in the market of Pingshui town. Although it seems to be a good job, she also tortured an acute child because of tax disputes with the vendors in the market all day, but it also has advantages, that is, it is much cheaper to buy vegetables, meat, firewood, rice, oil, salt, soy sauce, vinegar and tea.

Wang Liqing, the eldest uncle, is a completely honest man who works in the town post office. If you talk to him, you can say ten words, and he can reply to you. It's still like "eh" with precious words, but it's better to talk less. At least when the eldest aunt nags, the eldest uncle just listens. In this way, the two won't quarrel.

Shen Dongmei, my sister-in-law, set up a stall to sell clothes in the market. Although it's hard, it's a small business after all, which is better than my sister-in-law's life.

But unfortunately, I didn't find a good mother's house. The contrast between my husband before and after marriage was very different. Before marriage, I went to my grandmother's house all day to chop firewood and draw water. After marriage, I drank a lot of wine and played mahjong all day. My sister-in-law stood up for two years. Finally, I couldn't insist. I chose divorce and lived with my daughter.
