Chapter 333 Excavator Master Xiaoguai
"Yes, grandpa and grandma! Dad's father is called grandpa, and dad's mother is called grandma! This small house is where grandparents eat," Su Qinghe touched Guaiguai's head and said in a gentle tone, "Guaiguai can't dig up grandparents.
Do you know the hut where you eat?"
"Daddy's daddy." Su Qinghe's explanation probably made Guaiguai laugh. She clapped her hands and laughed. It turns out that daddy also has a daddy. But when she smiled, she was confused again, "Daddy's parents."
Where?"
Hearing Guaguai's question, Su Qinghe glanced at the mountain behind the ancestral hall. His parents' graves were on the mountain behind this mountain. It was originally a Feng Shui treasure land that the old man asked a familiar Feng Shui master to find for him. Before something happened at home,
Two years ago, he and the old man went to tidy up and pay homage.
It is not uncommon in Nanling Town for living people to find their own graveyards. Many people in Nanling Town who are over sixty years old, or even earlier, will find a Feng Shui master in their spare time to travel over the mountains and ridges to give themselves a hundred years later.
Find a tomb that can bless future generations. Once you find it, you will repair the tomb, arrange and pay homage every year, and bury it after death.
The old man was a very independent and far-sighted man. He had arranged his posthumous affairs long ago. But no one thought that the grave he prepared for himself would eventually be used to bury his eldest son and daughter-in-law.
What a tragedy! What a pain!
After withdrawing his thoughts, Su Qinghe suppressed the bitterness in his heart and told Guaiguai in a very calm tone, "Dad's parents are dead."
Guaiguai has not yet had the concept of life and death, nor has she reached the stage of one hundred thousand whys. For her, grandparents are just a name she has learned, not a memory symbol.
She said "Oh", and since her father did not agree with her digging a small house, she stopped digging and drove the excavator to the edge to play by herself.
Su Qinghe found a relatively wet stone beside the outer wall of the ancestral hall and sat down. He leaned against the wall and watched Guaiguai and Su Xiaoting playing in the mud.
Only when you become a parent can you realize how difficult it is to be a parent. Now he has no worries about food and clothing. He can stay with Guaiguai for a long time and watch her play innocently and grow up day by day. Now that he doesn't see Guaiguai even if he doesn't see her, he misses her terribly.
Back then, his parents left their hometown to make a living and left their children at home to be raised by their grandparents. How could they endure the bone-gnawing pain of missing them?
"Hey, Guaiguai is here too"
A voice sounded, and Su Qinghe turned around and saw Su Mingwei holding a hoe and wearing water shoes standing in a place full of weeds.
"Uncle Mingwei!" Su Qinghe shouted, "You went out to work just after the rain stopped."
Su Mingwei was not surprised to see Su Qinghe. If he was here obediently, Su Qinghe must be nearby. He walked over with a hoe and said with a smile: "I'm just waiting for this rain. I plan to clear the ground after the New Year's Eve."
Get up."
"Are you planning to plant something or raise something?" Su Qinghe asked.
"I didn't think about it. I'll surround myself first to avoid being invaded."
It’s not surprising that every household in the village has land near their old house. Although many of them are empty and unattended, some are used to raise chickens and grow vegetables. Su Qinghe just tidied up the land next to his old house.
Is it used to grow vegetables?
The houses are small and have been idle for too long. As more and more people use these idle houses, they will inevitably be occupied by people. As time goes by, it will become unclear.
Shuangtang Village has a small amount of land and a large number of people. Nowadays, the younger generation basically does not know how to farm. The land cannot be used to build houses. If it is invaded, it will be invaded. But the house land is not good. Although it looks small, it is
You can buy it, you can exchange it, and you can always make a big one.
Su Qinghe nodded understandingly, "Where is your house?"
"You probably don't know what's behind the bamboo root forest." Su Mingwei raised his hand and pointed to the bamboo forest in front of him, which the villagers called the "bamboo root forest."
p>
Through the densely spaced bamboos in the bamboo forest, Su Qinghe saw this small open space, and could not help but think of the scene before the old house was demolished. There used to be a series of mud-brick houses, which were dark, damp, and uninhabited for a long time.
Here, Su Qinghe and his friends often go in to do adventures and other activities.
After demolishing the mud brick house, the village originally planned to build a basketball court there. The small vacant land and the filling of the small pond were enough.
Su Qinghe really didn't know where Su Mingwei's old house was. Before he was born, most of the people in the village had moved away from the old house. There were newly built mud-brick houses where the buildings were now built. His family was the only one living there.
It was done in one step. A new building was built in the new century and then I moved out of the old house.
Su Qinghe followed Su Mingwei to look behind the bamboo root forest. When he saw it, he also drove the excavator and followed.
Su Mingwei's plan to enclose the house was not a temporary one. He had already made preparations. He stacked bricks in several corners of the open space and sprinkled dust on the border. It was indeed as he said, just waiting for the rain. Su Qinghe had
I have experienced that the ground after demolition of this kind of old house is very hard, even if it has just rained, it is very difficult to level it.
However, Su Mingwei hasn't figured out how to use the more than 50 square meters of house land. Now he just plans to sort out the boundaries and build a small fence by laying bricks in the next year. The workload is not big.
Su Xiaoting told Guaiguai about the conversation between Su Qinghe and Su Mingwei. Guaiguai's eyes lit up, she sat on the excavator, raised her little hand, and volunteered: "Dad, uncle, I will dig the excavator."
"You can dig it if you can!" Su Qinghe had a headache, and this little guy just loved to join in the fun.
"I will." Guaiguai was very dissatisfied that Su Qinghe wouldn't let her help her uncle dig the ground. She said no, but also understood that it was useless to ask Su Qinghe about this matter, so she went to Su Mingwei and shouted cutely, "
"Uncle"
There are really very few people who can withstand Guaiguai's coquettishness, and Su Mingwei is no exception. He readily agreed, and even advised Su Qinghe, "Just let Guaiguai try it. No one is born with it. It can't be done slowly."
Learn, operate more”
Su Qinghe: "..."
Why should you learn this obediently? She is just having fun now. She really thinks she will be an excavator master in the future
"Uncle Mingwei, it's either that I don't want Guaiguai to try it, or I'm worried that the little one will make uneven digs, and you will have to help her hold the tail later."
"It's easier to hold the tail than to do it myself. If it weren't for the waste of hiring an excavator for this job, I wouldn't want to do it myself."
Well, since Su Mingwei doesn't care, Guaiguai and Su Xiaoting are eager to try and recommend themselves, Su Qinghe can only hold his nose and admit it.
With Su Qinghe's consent, Guaiguai drove the excavator. Under the dual guidance of Su Mingwei and Su Xiaoting, it stopped on a gray line. The little guy manipulated the digging bucket with seriousness on his face. When he went down, he connected the bricks and mud.
Dig it up together, turn the fuselage and unload the contents into the tow bucket behind.
"Great job!" Su Mingwei gave Guaiguai a thumbs up.
After receiving praise and encouragement, Guaiguai became even more excited and dug harder.
Su Qinghe, who had nothing to do, took out his mobile phone, turned on the camera, and took a video.
