Chapter 131 Healing Department Returns Home
It was a good night's sleep. I woke up and recovered from fatigue, but it was probably very late, and the sun shone outside the window. Yanzi had already gotten up and the things in the room were cleaned up. I got up to wash and dress, and heard Yanzi's voice in the kitchen.
It turned out that she wanted to make breakfast for everyone, and her best thing was to fry eggs. My mother and aunt wanted to help her, but she refused and said that the first meal must be done. There was no way, so I had to rush up to help, but she drove me out again: "Men, don't do these things."
OK, fried eggs with milk, this is a regular breakfast.
My uncle is an honest man. When I lived in my house, I only knew how to be silly and laughed all day long. My aunt is a happy person and likes to joke with my mother.
"Sister, if you find a daughter at home, isn't there no one to help you with your life?"
My mom laughed: "What do you eat in the morning? Isn't that a way to live?"
"Sister, you rich families look down on poor relatives. They don't give us a bite of porridge, they just put some milk and eggs in them, and they don't give us rice."
"You have no meals and still have the strength to speak. Can you drink the northwest wind to fill up?"
"It's so good to brag when you drink too much, and you'll go uphill after you've eaten enough." My aunt was speaking in local dialect. Yanzi saw a smile on the side, and my mother asked her, "Yanzi, do you understand our Sichuan dialect?"
"I heard about it, I have to guess it. My aunt said just now that she can get uphill after eating. Do you need to eat to get uphill? Is it necessary to eat to get uphill?"
My aunt laughed: "Yanzi, you are rich and noble, have never been to our place. We rural people say that going uphill means working in the fields. The fields we have are all on the hillside, which is very difficult."
Yanzi nodded thoughtfully, as if she was thinking about something.
After staying for a day, the squad leader finished all the remaining matters and handed me a big bag: "Xiaozhuang, this is the hotel's list and gift list. I have all the cash in your bank card, please click it yourself. I would like to remind you, if the person who has given gifts on this place invites you to do business at home, you have to return the gifts or not. This is the rule. You are a family today. The first step in family style is to return the gifts."
His words moved me so much that he was my elder brother, and he was more like the protector and leader of my life.
He wanted to go back to Beijing because the nursing home was really busy. Yanzi gave her sister-in-law a gift, and the squad leader wanted to open it. Yanzi was not sure and said that this thing could only be opened by her sister-in-law. This was her friendship with her sister-in-law.
Yanzi and I took the squad leader to the airport, and Aunt Jin was also waiting for us at the airport. Aunt Jin touched Yanzi's face and said, "It's only one day that our Yanzi has been moisturized. Yanzi, can you get married?" Yanzi was so embarrassed.
After they boarded the plane, I asked Yanzi in the car: "What did you give to your sister-in-law? You don't want the squad leader to open it?"
"A set of ruby jewelry, from necklaces and earrings to rings, I was afraid that Manager Chen would not accept it, so I didn't want him to open it."
I nodded. Yanzi also understood the class monitor's character. He would not accept valuable gifts. Yanzi's method was correct.
The third day was back to the door. We prepared our clothes and gifts early in the morning. Master Liao drove to pick them up. Yanzi's little cousin was also in the car. I gave him a big red envelope and we returned to Yanzi's house together.
These aunts and aunts were sitting in a room, and we only greeted tea, smoke and smiled and said hello for half an hour. I really couldn't understand the local Wenzhou dialect for an older relative. Fortunately, I had that little cousin as the translator, so I was really hard to deal with. Compared with Wenzhou dialect, our Sichuan dialect is simply standard Mandarin. China is really big. If the language is not unified, it will not become a country.
Today, when my new son-in-law comes to my house, I am the focus, so dealing with these many relatives can be said to be exhausted. It not only requires ability, but also energy.
During lunch, it is not wrong to toast and call the name. In fact, Yanzi is not very clear about some relatives, and she rarely deals with them. Godmother, it is wrong. Now she should call her mom. She reminds us one by one behind us, so she doesn’t make a joke about calling the wrong name.
After dinner, my mother-in-law La Yanzi spoke aside. My father-in-law called me to his room and discussed things with me. According to his intention, the factory matters have been arranged almost all the time, and there is also Manager Chen in Beijing nursing home affairs. He stayed in Wenzhou for the time being and helped me watch the factory. Yanzi and I would better discuss a place and travel easily. "There are not many opportunities for life to be relaxed. In the future, you have to support this home, which is enough for you to be busy." When he said this, the smell of a programmatic summary of life experience came again.
On a busy day, when I went back at night, Yanzi asked me at home, "Dad told you that you didn't tell me about arranging a trip?"
"I said that, I haven't figured out the location yet, what do you think?"
"I want to go back to Sichuan with you, take my mother, uncle, aunt, let's go back together, how about it?" Yanzi said, which scared me. It's not like the rhythm of a honeymoon trip?
"I want to know everything about you, your history, where you live, and even the troops you have served as soldiers. But the most important thing is to go to Sichuan with you." Yanzi emphasized her focus.
"Why? Is there any special significance? Are you still discussing with others?" I don't understand very much.
"I have told my mom that my mom will make our own decisions. The key is that I have another idea, which is to make you feel at ease."
When she said this, I suddenly felt shocked. Did she think of my heart?
"All your habits and thoughts arise from that place, and all your pain and concerns were in that place. I can't let you be in Wenzhou and imagine the past in Sichuan. Am I right?"
Yanzi is really a psychologist. Who taught her? She really knows my heart. The root of my pain is on the surface because of poverty, love or imagination of success, but the more rooted one is the hometown full of painful memories. She healed my pain in the seemingly searching for the roots and allowed me to easily adapt to our future. A person who truly loves you does not need much knowledge. Just by feeling with care, you can see the deepest part of your heart.
I think she is right, but I still have concerns: "The conditions in our hometown are very poor and we don't have a seat. Besides, my mother is old and can she take a car for such a long time?"
Yanzi smiled and said, "My husband agrees, and I will just leave my wife alone for the rest, and you don't care."
After Yanzi went out, discussed with my mother, and then with her uncle and aunt, they all seemed very excited. For them, going back with us was equivalent to returning home in glory. Xiang Yu once said: Not returning home in wealth and honor is like walking in a night clothes. In a land of poverty and humiliation, being proud of one's head is to show off. No one asked whether Yanzi was adapted to that condition and whether they were adapted to long-distance travel. They were attracted by the imagined scenes, and they were all full of impatient expressions.
Yanzi called her and said a friend for a while. I didn't listen carefully to what she said. She hung up the phone and said to me: "It's done, professional RVs can sleep with four people. It's really not possible. When we go to our hometown, we sleep in the car."
"Do you have such friends? Those who are engaged in RV business?" I asked.
"What are the RV business? They are their own? They are the ones who hosted the last disco party and took the microphone. Do you remember?"
I remember that girl was very erotic and good at adjusting the atmosphere.
Yanzi called her mother, and after a while, she handed me the phone number, "Xiaozhuang, you and Yanzi are going back to your hometown, we think it is appropriate. Pay attention to safety on the road, the time can be longer, and drive slowly on the road."
I had to agree. Of course, worrying about safety is a characteristic of all parents.
Yue Ni's phone call also came: "You are careful. I heard that there are orchids on the mountains of Sichuan. If someone can dig it, please bring me some back." This is the task and it also adds meaning to this trip. Adding a burden to me has almost become a habit of my father-in-law.
This day was a busy day, and Yanzi had to toss and dodge wildly at night. She probably wouldn't be able to leave tomorrow, and she would have to prepare luggage and purchase items tomorrow.
The next day, the car was delivered. It was a small RV. Our driver's license could be driven. There was a fixed bed installed on the top. There were usually chairs and coffee tables below, but it could also be turned over and used as a bed. This is the so-called sleeping for four people, two seats in the front row. If you lie horizontally, you can barely sleep with one person. There is a simple bathroom and shower, as well as an induction cooker, refrigerator and TV, etc., which is considered a crowded small family.
My mother and uncle and aunt got in the car and visited the car like they were looking at dioramas. They were so excited. My aunt said, "Yanzi, you have to drive a rover for us. We shouldn't say we haven't seen such a car. Li Ersao and the others have never heard of it."
Yanzi smiled: "This is still a small one. If the large one is comfortable, we can also change it if you like the big one, but my brother and I can't drive it. If you want an A-picture, you have to hire a special driver."
My mom said, "Forget it, my family members, don't let outsiders participate."
I explained: "That big one is equivalent to a large bus. It is difficult to drive a minibus on the road in our hometown. Only this kind of bus can do it."
I packed my luggage, bought supplies on the road, and had it for a long time. I checked the water and electricity in the car again. Yanzi's friend was really reliable. The water was full and the electricity was also full. We also put a small medicine box and two boxes of mineral water on the car. It was really thoughtful.
At night, Yanzi and I were so crazy that we knew there were not many opportunities on the road, so we cherished this night very much.
The water bed is such a good thing. Whoever uses it will know.
On the third day, we set off. Yanzi took the camera and started taking pictures from the start. I drove and she took the co-pilot. Since the front cabin and the rear cabin were relatively closed, we were also intimate in front. Especially after entering the highway, she moved more. I reminded her to pay attention to safety, so she was more restrained.
Of course, we went to Nanjing first and took them to play for two days. In fact, this place was the first time I came here. Of course, I remember the place I had to go to: Xuanwu Lake. Xuanwu is a northern divine beast. Xuanwu Lake is located in the north of Nanjing and has a passage connected to the Yangtze River. After visiting the Sun Yat-sen Mausoleum and the Ming Xiaoling Mausoleum, I felt that the Ming Xiaoling Mausoleum was arranged according to Feng Shui theory. However, as a capital, most of this place has turbulent dynasties. It is not a good place to either move the capital or destroy the country. From Feng Shui, this place is too yin energy and is not suitable for being a capital. According to Xi'an, in terms of Xi'an, it belongs to the Qian hexagram direction and can be the Supreme of the Nine Five, so its fortune is long. Nanjing belongs to the Kun position, and it is certain that wealth is not suitable for violent royal power.
When I arrived in Wuhan, I took them to Changchun Temple. It turned out that the alley where I lived with the old fortune teller on the street was no longer found. The buffet location that Brother Qian invited me to was changed. However, Baotong Zen Temple is still there. In this sense, religion has great significance for cultural retention. It is like a guardian of the land, and everything else is changing. Only it is waiting for you to come back and give you a landmark of memories.
Tangxun Lake, the villa where Mr. Dong and I lived, I drove around in a car, and people changed their lives, leaving only sighs.
On the Yellow Crane Tower, I looked at the three towns in Wuhan, the Yangtze River Bridge, they were taking photos, and I was in a daze. I remembered a story on the Internet, and I guess I will never forget this story. Yanzi asked me what I was thinking, and I said I remembered a story and she asked me to tell her.
This is a post from an online master who has touched countless people.
"Recently, the scene of the Yugoslav people using human shields to protect the bridge reminded me of my childhood. At that time, I was only four or five years old, and I took a train with my cousin to pass through the Wuhan Yangtze River Bridge. At that time, she held me on the small table, allowing me to see the spectacular face and the miracle of engineering. This scene is forever engraved in my heart. Later, I often thought: I was born with such a magnificent scenery. If I can't protect it, I choose to die here!"
When I talked about the last part of this story, my voice was choked. Yanzi looked at me and said, "My brother wants to be a hero!"
She was right.
She whispered to me again: "Husband, you are always my hero." I was a little embarrassed.
The Three Gorges Project in Yichang cannot reach the dam. I only looked at the world's largest artificial lake and the rushing scene of water release at the gate, which was quite shocking. My uncle said: "When I was a child, I saw Gaodong Reservoir release water and thought it was the most spectacular scene. Today, when I saw the Three Gorges Reservoir, I realized that Gaodong Reservoir should not be called a reservoir, but at most it is a washbasin."
He is a person who talks little, and speaking these must be the most intuitive and realistic feeling.
After passing Yichang, Enshi and Wanxian, they are all mountains. In some places, even the mobile phone signal is unstable. Yanzi has to send a text message several times. I can only drive this paragraph. After all, I drove it the last time, and I am more experienced than Yanzi. Yanzi is uncomfortable sitting in front of me. It is mainly because she sees the overly thrilling mountain roads and cliffs, and it is because she keeps turning up and downhill. No matter how good your car is, you have to circle irregularly here.
I asked her to lie behind for a while and asked her uncle to come to me. She went back and my uncle sat in front. As soon as he arrived in front, he laughed: "You can't enjoy this high-end thing, but it made me feel so suffocated from behind. I suddenly realized: My uncle smoked. I thought there was a funny phenomenon along the way. My uncle smoked and Yanzi smoked, but they didn't know that each other was smoking. Yanzi always used an excuse to smoke in the toilet on the way, and his uncle often hid in a corner and sipped a few times, as if smoking was a shameful thing.
When he took out the cigarette, he found that the cigarette was behind and was not in his pocket. He was anxious. I pulled open the glove box with my right hand, and there were several packs of cigarettes in it. He said to him: "Uncle, you can be friends with Yanzi, and she smokes too."
My uncle was surprised: "Why haven't I seen her sucking?"
"I'm hiding from you, I'm afraid you will dislike you. But my mother knows, she didn't tell you?"
"Your mother hasn't said it, and no one asked us. Hi, look, I've been holding it all the way, I'm worried about it." My uncle took out a pack of cigarettes and looked at it. It was China, and said, "Hi, I haven't smoked the whole pack of cigarettes yet."
I laughed and said, "Uncle, I'll give it to you. Can't buy it after you finish the sucking?"
My uncle took a deep breath and sighed: "Good cigarettes are good cigarettes. Don't finish smoking on the road. Leave a pack for your cousin so that he can also benefit from it." The cousin he said, I know, it is the one in my grandfather's yard. I went back last time and killed chickens and drank for me. I think he should let him enjoy my wealth today and make this trip worthwhile.
Finally arrived in Daxian, we stopped. In the evening, I took them to the place where I had lunch last time. It was a coincidence that I ran into the stall selling roasted meat again. We sat around a table. As soon as I ordered the dishes, the boss recognized me: "Is it you who said, boss, are you here again?"
Yanzi was shocked when she heard this and asked the stall owner: "Why are you? You knew each other?"
The boss smiled and looked at me. I nodded and said to him, "I'm not afraid, she is my little sister."
"What is a little sister?" Yanzi was even more curious. But when she heard her uncle and aunt, they all laughed. The aunt said, "You are his little sister. In our local dialect, it means a woman, and it is a wife."
The boss said to Yanzi: "The one in your house, I was so sad last time I came here. She ate and cried. She bought me forty yuan, gave me one hundred yuan, and ran away. Do you think I remember thia?" She had a strong hometown accent, but Yanzi could roughly understand the Sichuan dialect. She understood the so-called last time and also understood why I cried.
She pulled my wrist and I nodded.
The roasted wax was delicious, and my aunt tasted it: "I thought Li Ersao's roasted wax was the best. Today I arrived in the county and found out that any family was better than her."
My uncle said, "You have never eaten other people's roasted wax. Only Li Ersao's family is there, so of course I have no comparison. I have lived in Wenzhou these days, and the delicacies of mountains and seas are all over the world. I think roasted wax is just average."
"I have only enjoyed the blessing for two days, but I have forgotten my roots. Which one is it? In Guangdong, I want to cook the bacon, and I want to drool." My aunt revealed the shortcomings and we all laughed.
I found the best hotel nearby and replaced the water and electricity for the car. The hotel in Daxian has not provided this service yet, so I had to do it myself and work hard for a long time.
In the evening, Yanzi asked me to take her outside for a walk, but I was actually not familiar with this place. I for no reason brought her to the Hongqi Bridge and listened to the river water and the cool breeze.
"Brother, you came back to find your mother last time and cried when you were having dinner. Did you miss home?" She now has a problem, calling her brother and husband sometimes, but the name of brother sounds purer and more friendly.
"I miss my father. I have only been to my town since I was a child. The first time I went to the county town was the college entrance examination. Before I left home, my father bought me roast salad. I had finished eating it. He didn't eat a bite and couldn't bear to eat it. It was expensive. The second time was when I went to college. Before I left home, my father bought me roast salad. I didn't finish it. He put the rest in my bag, but he didn't eat it. That was the first time I arrived in the county." When I said this, my tears came out again.
: "There is also the porridge I drank tonight. When I left home, my father also cooked it for me. Yanzi, it's useless to say that I'm not old. I have never invited my father to have a roasted rice in my life. My father has never left Daxian. The roasted rice he invited me to the last time was also the last time my father and son met." I lost control again and cried out. In Yanzi's arms, I had no scruples. Did you hear the rushing river water?
My throat hurt a little, and I stopped crying. I realized that tears wet Yanzi's chest. I realized that she also cried and hugged me tighter. I hugged her and suddenly felt a huge love. This was something that Yanzi had never had before. At this moment, I treated her as my true lover, and I kept kissing her. I wanted to incorporate her into my heart and hugged her tighter and tighter.
"Brother, many people are watching." Yanzi said, and I realized that although it was night, there were still many passers-by under the street lights.
Yanzi is smart. She empathized with me at this moment, thus opening the floodgates for me to love her, from love to love. Along the way, Yanzi and I held hands, as if we were re-conversing a middle school student relationship.
"Brother, you want to take me to your original school and meet your teachers and classmates." I said, "The classmates have long disappeared. Most of them are in other places. My favorite teacher Zhang has also arrived in Chengdu. But the school is still there, and the yellow tree is still there. There is also a big change today. Anyway, there is no such cesspool in the past."
"Brother, do you have your best friend, who can be said intimate since childhood?" I said, "Yes, my best friend, Erwa, was a spiritual level when we were young, and we depended on each other for our lives. However, his family had moved away long ago. After he was admitted to college, I also lost contact with him. There are probably people from his family in the town, but I can't find Erwa. What's the point?"
"Ah?" Yanzi was surprised: "Can you all have left your hometown and you can't find your acquaintances in your hometown?"
"Yes, such a poor place cannot develop at all. For example, my uncle has a house in the town but cannot make money. Didn't the whole family go to work and live in Guangdong? However, my grandmother's hometown also has a hometown, and my cousin is my cousin, who is the best person with my mother."
Chapter completed!
