After the township enterprise meeting, the city really stepped up its environmental protection efforts. Each enterprise successively installed sewage and exhaust gas treatment equipment, and some small businesses with serious pollution were shut down and transferred to other places. The media's coverage of this meeting was invisibly aggravating.
Yuyuan did publicity, Yuyuan's orders increased a lot, and everyone in the company became busy.
In a few days, it will be the first day of the tenth month of the lunar calendar, which is called Ghost Festival in the countryside. Aunt Lan wants to go back to Wenjiazhuang to pay homage to her husband and ancestors. After Aunt Lan came to Yuyuan, she took Xiaoyu and Haoer back there
I haven't been back to Wenjiazhuang for almost four years now.
On this day, after dinner, Aunt Lan came to see Xiao Yu. Xiao Yu was looking at the budget for next month prepared by the Finance Department. Aunt Lan told her her thoughts. The company is currently busy, but Xia Yu will definitely accept the things Aunt Lan raised.
Agreeing, Xia Yu said, "Okay, I'll go back with you."
Aunt Lan said: "No, Xiaoyu, I know the company is busy recently. You are tired all day long. Pay more attention to rest and let Jiahui accompany me back. I asked Jiahui yesterday and he agreed to me."
Xia Yu hesitated and handed Aunt Lan over to Lin Jiahui. She was a little worried and said, "Jiahui, can he do it?"
Aunt Lan said: "Don't worry, Xiaoyu, I trust Jiahui. Jiahui has many problems, but he has a good heart. I have long regarded him as my own son."
Before Aunt Lan left, everyone repeatedly told Lin Jiahui to take good care of Aunt Lan. Haoer drove them to the train station in City A, and the two of them, as close as mother and son, boarded the southbound train.
The train changed to a bus, and the couple arrived at Wenjiazhuang. Wenjiazhuang is an ordinary small village with pastoral scenery and simple villagers, but it does not have the wealth and beauty of Yuyuan. Aunt Lan was born
In Wenjiazhuang, she and her husband Wen Qingyuan were childhood sweethearts and childhood sweethearts. Due to poor family circumstances, Aunt Lan could only study until she graduated from elementary school. Wen Qingyuan went to college. Before going to college, the two were engaged. Wen Qingyuan separated after graduation.
When they arrived in City L, the two got married, and then they had Wen Xuehui. When Wen Xuehui was two years old, Aunt Lan wanted to take care of one child, but it didn't hurt to have more, so she opened a family kindergarten. Although Aunt Lan said
Her education level is not high, but she is sensible, hard-working and kind, and her neighbors are willing to leave their children to her. Aunt Lan's kindergarten has been running for more than ten years. Her husband works in the government department and has an income. Her son is about to graduate from high school.
After graduation, Aunt Lan was satisfied with her life, but something unexpected happened. When her son graduated from high school, her husband had a heart attack and passed away. Aunt Lan's sky suddenly collapsed. Her son felt sorry for his mother and gave up the opportunity to go to college.
, working everywhere to supplement the family income, the mother and son finally got through the most difficult days. When their son was 24 years old, they met Xia Yu. From then on, Aunt Lan and Xia Yu formed a mother-daughter relationship. After the death of their son, they were destined to
Aunt Lan will spend her whole life with Xia Yu.
Aunt Lan's parents and parents-in-law are gone long ago, but there are still Aunt Lan's sister, brother-in-law, and Wen Qingyuan's brother-in-law in Wenjiazhuang. When Aunt Lan decided to return to Yuyuan with Xia Yu, her relatives and friends felt that
It was absurd to leave home and go with a girl, but Aunt Lan understood that Xia Yu was the person she loved most in the world. No matter whether Xia Yu was rich or poor, successful or not, she would always be by her side to accompany her and support her. Xia Yu was hers.
The pillar is her happiness.
Three years later, when Aunt Lan took Xia Yu and Hao'er back to their hometown to worship their ancestors, the villagers looked at Xia Yu and Hao'er and followed Aunt Lan like their own children, and they felt that Aunt Lan's choice might be the right one. Now seeing Lan
Aunt Lan brought back a young man who looked exactly like Xuehui, which was even more strange. Aunt Lan proudly told everyone that this was the son given to her by God.
Aunt Lan has long since lost her own residence in Wenjiazhuang. She lives in her sister Ding Fengying's house and takes Wen Xuehui to visit relatives and friends, telling stories about Yuyuan and listening to stories about Wenjiazhuang.
Perhaps it was because she had not been back to Wenjiazhuang for many years, and the climate was not in harmony with her. Perhaps she was overworked from walking in the streets. On the third day, Aunt Lan fell ill. Although it was not serious, the cough and fever did not go away in a short while. Jiahui
Taking care of Aunt Lan with all her heart, Fengying was also busy making soup and cooking to take care of this sister she hadn't seen for many years.
The fourth day was the first day of October. Even though she was sick, Aunt Lan insisted on following her sister, brother-in-law, brother and sister-in-law to visit their parents' graves. Naturally, Jiahui was with her. Lin Jiahui learned about "Ghost Festival" and "Ghost Festival" from Aunt Lan for the first time last night.
The story of "Qingming Festival", it is said that the "Ghost Festival" is the day when ghosts are released, so the winter is relatively dark and the weather is cold. When the Qingming Festival comes, spring is warm, the flowers are blooming, and the sun is shining brightly, the ghosts will be taken away, so it is necessary to burn paper during the Qingming Festival.
Burn it early to avoid ghosts being taken away and not receiving the money for the paper you burned. On the Ghost Festival, it doesn’t matter whether it’s sooner or later.
The cemeteries in Wenjiazhuang are scattered in the fields. Most of the graves have a willow tree, which was grown from the mourning stick planted by the filial son. The sky is overcast, and there is a slight chill in the air, as if the ghost has really been released.
, there are undead wandering everywhere, sparrows stand in line on the wires, silently, and there is a crow in the distance, which occasionally calls "quacking", which makes the fields even more lonely.
Aunt Lan, brother and sister knelt in front of their parents' graves, burning paper money and talking softly to their parents. Jiahui stood aside, watching the paper ashes flying, and he wondered whether there really is a soul after death.
If so, he should also burn some paper money for his mother so that she can live a more comfortable life in another world. After his mother passed away, his father bought the best cemetery for his mother. When he was a child, Jiahui and his father went to pay homage to his mother and paid homage to his mother.
Instead of burning paper money, just placing a bouquet of flowers, his father would talk to his mother for a while. Later, the relationship between him and his father became more and more tense. He never visited his mother again, and I don’t know if his father still went to see his mother.
But he has never forgotten his mother. The person he loves and misses the most in this world is his mother.
After the brothers and sisters finished burning the paper, Aunt Lan was going to visit the graves of her parents-in-law and late husband. Jiahui accompanied Aunt Lan to the Wen family cemetery. It took more than ten minutes to walk from the Ding family cemetery to the Wen family cemetery. After Aunt Lan finished burning the paper money,
She sat next to her husband's grave and talked to her husband. "Qingyuan, I don't know if you are living well there. Having a son with you means you have a companion. It's getting cold, so wear more clothes. As for me, you
Don’t worry, there are Xiaoyu, Haoer, and Jiahui, come on, Jiahui, let your Uncle Qingyuan take a look.”
Lin Jiahui bowed respectfully in front of the grave and said, "Uncle, don't worry, I will take good care of Aunt Lan."
Aunt Lan burst into tears and said, "Qingyuan, look, this kid is so sensible, he looks so much like our son."
The sky gradually became clearer. When Jiahui and Aunt Lan went back, half of the sun had already peeked out from the clouds. The sunlight was a bit dazzling, shining brightly on the fields.
When he got home, Lin Jiahui thought about his mother and asked Aunt Lan how he could burn some paper money for his mother. Aunt Lan said that you just need to find a crossroads, draw a circle, burn some paper money in the circle, and silently remember that the paper money is for your mother.
Yes, your mother will naturally receive it.
In the afternoon, Lin Jiahui went to the entrance of the village and burned paper money for his mother. He really mourned his mother. On the way back, he thought about Wen Xuehui again. Why was there no Wen Xuehui in the Wen family's cemetery? He couldn't ask Lan.
I went to ask Aunt Fengying. Aunt Fengying said that in Wenjiazhuang, unmarried men and women are not allowed to enter the ancestral graves. Xuehui's tombstone is in the city.
She must have caught the wind and cold in the fields. Aunt Lan's illness worsened and she couldn't return to Yuyuan for a while. Aunt Lan was afraid that Xiao Yu would be worried, so she asked Jiahui to go to the village committee and call Xiao Yu, saying that he hadn't been home for many years.
He wanted to stay with relatives and friends for a few more days and go back later. Xia Yu asked Jiahui to take care of Aunt Lan on the phone. Jiahui hadn't seen Xia Yu for a few days. When he heard Xia Yu's voice, he felt cordial and kept following her.
Xia Yu talked about what he had seen in Wenjiazhuang. It was not until the village committee staff urged him to use the phone that Lin Jiahui hung up the phone and walked back alone. On the way, he was still thinking about what things he had missed. When he returned to Yuyuan
Tell Xia Yu again.
Xia Yu saw a familiar smiling face, Xia Yu walked over, and the man disappeared again. When she woke up from the dream, Xia Yu didn't know whether it was Wen Xuehui or Lin Jiahui she was dreaming about. Lin Jiahui had been away for a few days, and Xia Yu felt like
There was something missing, whether she was missing Lin Jiahui or Wen Xuehui, she couldn't figure it out.
Cheng Hao always thought that he was not used to Lin Jiahui standing next to his sister, but now he realized that Lin Jiahui was not here and there was no one to quarrel and argue with him. Instead, he felt empty. It turned out that he was used to Lin Jiahui's presence, especially when he saw his sister's absent-minded look.
Only then did he realize that there really should be a man beside his sister. This man is Lin Jiahui. Only Lin Jiahui can bring happiness to his sister. Although Lin Jiahui is still doing nothing, he can sense that Lin Jiahui is slowly changing and changing for Xia Yu.
Lin Jiahui would go to the village committee and call Xia Yu's office every day. Xia Yu found that she started to look forward to Jiahui's call. One day when she didn't receive a call from Jiahui, her heart would feel empty. Did she really like Lin Jiahui?
This gangster, no, she couldn't betray Wen Xuehui, she couldn't allow herself to fall in love with someone else, so she worked like crazy to stop herself from thinking about Lin Jiahui.
Overworked and the weather changed, Xia Yu fell ill. Lin Jiahui called Xia Yu's office again. It took a long time before someone answered, saying that Xia Yu was sick and did not come to work. Lin Jiahui hurriedly called Wutong Manor. Haoer had just
After sending Dr. Li back home, he answered Lin Jiahui's call. He could hear Jiahui's anxiety and sympathy for Xia Yu. Xia Yu dragged her sick body to the living room to answer the phone. Hao'er could tell that Xia Yu listened.
When she heard Jiahui's voice, it was like a ray of warm sunshine shining on her. Her face had a soft light and she felt much better.
Lin Jiahui did not dare to tell Xia Yu that Aunt Lan was sick, nor did he dare to tell Aunt Lan that Xia Yu was sick, for fear that they would worry about each other. He only hoped that Aunt Lan would get better soon and return to Yuyuan as soon as possible.
Taking care of Aunt Lan, Aunt Lan told him the story of Wenjiazhuang and the story of Wen Xuehui's childhood, but she always kept silent about the story of Wen Xuehui and Xia Yu. No one wanted to mention the sad things.
In the sky, both of them felt the happiness of mother and son being together. Aunt Lan's illness gradually recovered. They went to the city to visit Wen Xuehui's grave. Standing in front of Wen Xuehui's grave, Lin Jiahui felt strange.
, this is the person Xia Yu likes, the person who is very similar to himself. Lin Jiahui feels that the person lying in the tomb seems to be him, and he is Wen Xuehui. He silently said to Wen Xuehui, I will
Take good care of Aunt Lan and Xiao Yu, and rest in peace. Aunt Lan inevitably shed another tear, and then the two of them set off on their way back to Yuyuan.
The door of Wutong Manor was open, and the house, trees, and lawns were as beautiful as ever. Lin Jiahui had only been away for more than ten days, but he felt like he had been away for a long time. When he saw every plant and tree in the manor, he felt very friendly. He shouted
"I'm back, we're back." The old people all walked out of Wenxue Garden and said, "Aunt Lan, Jiahui is back." Lin Jiahui couldn't wait to ask: "Where is Xiaoyu? Is Xiaoyu's illness better? She
Are you at home?" Aunt Lan then knew that Xiaoyu was sick. She said, "What? Xiaoyu is sick. Why didn't you tell me, Jiahui, if she was feeling better?" Aunt Xia said, "Xiaoyu is fine. I talked to Hao yesterday.
My son went on a trip and will be back tomorrow." Lin Jiahui said, "What? Did you go on a trip with Hao'er?" Xia Bo said, "There are also employees from the company, they went together."
It turned out that the company had already planned to send employees to travel in batches after finishing this batch of orders. The first batch of tourists set off yesterday. Seeing that her sister’s illness was basically cured, Haoer persuaded her to go out to play and relax, and the elderly also
Xiao Yu said it was too hard and it was time to relax, so Xia Yu and Hao'er set off with the first group of tourists.
Lin Jiahui didn't call Xia Yu before he came back. He wanted to give Xia Yu a surprise. Who knew that they went out to play, and Haoer went out to play with him. He also wanted to surprise him, and was worried about whether his illness was cured.
It's ridiculous that Wenjiazhuang still thinks about others every day. Who are you, Lin Jiahui? Without Lin Jiahui, they are just as happy, maybe even happier. Without Lin Jiahui, Wutong Manor is just as beautiful, maybe even more beautiful. Lin Jiahui is just a good-for-nothing, penniless person.
A mix of values.
Lin Jiahui was in a terrible mood. He went to the city in the afternoon and got very drunk with his friends. He stayed out all night. The old people in the manor were so anxious that they couldn't sleep all night.
The next day, Xia Yu and Hao'er came back, but Lin Jiahui hadn't come back yet. The old people said that Jiahui had gone to the city and stayed out all night. Xia Yu was worried and angry at the same time. Before dinner, Lin Jiahui came back.
The smell of alcohol made Xia Yu's anger boil up. She originally thought that he had contributed a lot to his accompanying Aunt Lan back to her hometown to visit relatives this time. She also wanted to wait for him to come back to take care of him. She was originally looking forward to his return. She even
I think about him every day, but the situation is easy to change, and the nature is hard to change. This gangster is really hopeless. Xia Yu hates people driving under the influence. Back then, Wen Xuehui’s life was taken away because of that bastard driver’s drunk driving.
Xia Yu felt that she was wrong. She was really insulting Wen Xuehui by bringing Lin Jiahui back to Yuyuan.
Lin Jiahui's tongue was still a bit stiff and he was still a bit drunk. I really don't know how he drove back. When he saw Xia Yu, he said hello: "Hey, Mr. Xia, I'm back from traveling. Where is your flower protector?"
Xia Yu said: "You are drunk like this and you are still driving. You don't want your life? Even if you don't want your life, others will."
Lin Jiahui said: "Mr. Xia, what does it have to do with you whether I live or die?"
Xia Yu said: "You are really hopeless."
Lin Jiahui said: "Yes, I am hopeless, I am useless, I am worthless. How can I compare with your Wen Xuehui? I can't even compare with your Haoer."
Xia Yu shouted: "Shut up, I don't want to see you, get out of here."
Lin Jiahui cried like a child, "You tell me to get out, do you know that in Wenjiazhuang, - I think about you every day, knowing that you are sick, - you know how worried I am, - Aunt Lan also
You are sick, I dare not tell Aunt Lan that you are sick, for fear that she will worry, - I also dare not tell you that Aunt Lan is sick, for fear that you will worry, - I am worried about Aunt Lan, and I am nervous about you, - it is not easy
Aunt Lan is fine, I hurried back, but you were not here, Haoer went out to play with you, - I feel so ridiculous, you can live happily without me, you don't need me at all, - Wow
, you go out to play, I also go out to play, what's wrong with me going out to play, why do you ask me to get out, - yes, I should get out, who am I in Yuyuan, I am just Wen Xuehui's shadow, maybe
I'm not even worthy of being Wen Xuehui's shadow - I'm nothing, I'm nothing, nothing."
Lin Jiahui sat under the parasol tree, crying loudly and speaking intermittently. Everyone stood around and did not interrupt him, letting him speak his mind. There were tears in everyone's eyes, but they felt relieved in their hearts.
Everyone understood why he went out to drink, understood the pain in his heart, and understood his true feelings for Xia Yu.
Xia Yu also shed tears and said, "Hao'er, help him go back to his room to rest, and I'll make him some hangover soup."
The next day, Lin Jiahui woke up from drinking. He probably remembered what happened yesterday. What he remembered most clearly was that Xia Yu said that she didn't want to see him and told him to get out. He felt very sad and shameless, and he became silent.
many.
On Sunday, Haoer asked Jiahui to go out for a walk.
It is already mid-October of the lunar calendar, just after the beginning of winter, the weather is a bit cold, the trees on the roadside have lost their leaves, and the winter wheat in the fields is waiting for the winter with peace of mind.
Haoer said: "Jiahui, do you know that when you are away, my sister is absent-minded all day long? Every time she receives a call from you, she will be very happy. Going on a trip is something that the company has decided long ago. Everyone also thinks that my sister
It’s too hard, I advise her to go out and relax.”
Lin Jiahui said: "Are you comforting me?"
"It's not comfort, it's just telling the truth. When you first came to Yuyuan, no matter what you did, your sister would never be angry. She really didn't care about you at that time. But now, you go out and get drunk all night long. After drinking,
While driving, she is angry with you and worried about you, which means she has begun to care about you."
"Hao'er, are you helping me? Don't you hate me and aren't you used to me being with Xia Yu?"
"When you were away, no one quarreled or argued with me. I felt like something was missing. It seems that I have become accustomed to your presence, but I am not used to your absence."
"Really? I'm sorry, Hao'er. When I came back that day, I heard that you went out to play with Xiao Yu, and I was jealous of you. I was still scolding you in my heart."
"I know you are jealous, forget it, I have also been jealous of you, and we are even. Remember, Xia Yu is my biological sister. I hope she is happy, and only you can give her happiness."
"But when will she accept me?"
"After so many years, my sister has not accepted any man, which shows how important Wen Xuehui is in her heart, so don't worry, you have to give her time. Giving her time is giving yourself a chance. My story about my sister and Wen Xuehui
I don’t know much about it, but I know that it must be unforgettable love and pain. My sister’s inner emotional world has never been opened to anyone, and her inner pain has not been told to anyone. I don’t know what happened before. Since my sister returned,
After Yuyuan, I watched Yuyuan Company go from zero to now. It was really not easy for her, but no matter how hard it was, she carried it alone. There really should be a man beside her, Jiahui, you must be right
