Maybe it’s because the sugar water is too sweet, or maybe it’s because there are too few sweet moments in poor life, which are worth savoring and holding tightly. In short, at this moment, the family of three forgot about their worries, sorrows, and daily fatigue.
I even forgot about the key factor of maltose...
It's so enjoyable and intoxicating that people can't bear to wake up from this little sweetness.
However, happiness in this world is always short-lived, otherwise it would not be so precious.
Just when the family of three was enjoying a rare sweet moment, a heavy cough sounded at the door of the yard.
Attracted by the sound, the family subconsciously turned their heads to look.
Jiang Susu suddenly stopped talking and even looked embarrassed and uneasy, as if she had done something wrong. The smile on Yunshan's face was frozen, a little embarrassed and at a loss.
Yunjing was fine, but looked at the door and shouted: "Grandpa, you are back."
It was Yun Lin who came back. He didn't know when he appeared at the door of the courtyard. At this moment, he stood there and looked at Yun Jing and others with complicated expressions. He seemed a little angry and a little annoyed, but Yun Jing saw it from the depth of his grandfather's eyes.
I vaguely saw some self-blame, and I don't know where his self-blame came from.
"What are you doing?" Yun Lin didn't even come over, he just stood there and asked with a straight face.
He was really a little angry. He had been working in the fields before and had agreed that Yunshan and Jiang Susu would come back to get seeds and farm fertilizer. However, he waited around in the fields but no one came.
Since there were no seeds, there was no way he could wait in the field, so he came back to take a look and saw Yunjing's family of three chatting in the yard.
This is the busy farming season, time is so precious, how can it be wasted like this? You are an adult, you have a family and a family, how can you be so ignorant!
In fact, he had been standing at the door for a while, angry, but also a little reluctant to disturb the previously harmonious atmosphere. After all, it was rare for a family to have such a happy moment.
But if we don't interrupt, we won't be able to finish the work in the next time.
As for the trace of self-blame that Yunjing saw in his eyes, it was actually true. Yunlin felt very guilty at this moment. He felt guilty that he was incompetent and had been a farmer all his life.
Even though he has no money, he cannot earn a family fortune for his descendants.
He thought to himself that if he was more capable, his son and daughter-in-law wouldn't have to be so tired, and there might be more similar laughter.
Simple farm parents, as long as their offspring are not the kind of sarcastic and unfilial sons, they never expect anything from their children. Instead, they often think that they have not done enough and owe their children...
At this moment, from Yun Lin's perspective, the two mental states of anger and guilt appeared at the same time. In fact, it was not unexpected. This complicated mentality was also the reason why he originally wanted to get angry but didn't.
"Dad, we didn't do anything," Yunshan still stood up and said as a man, but he was a little embarrassed and lacked confidence.
Everyone would feel embarrassed if they left their father alone and ended up drinking sugar water while waiting for others at home, and even got bumped into him.
"Why are you still working there when you have nothing to do? Don't you want to do the work in the fields?" Yun Lin said angrily. He had seen the picture of Yunjing's family of three enjoying themselves before, but in fact, his anger had almost disappeared.
Already.
But as an elder, you have the obligation to spur the younger generations every day you live. Otherwise, if you die one day, the younger generations will become lazy without someone to encourage them, and they will not be able to survive?
This matter, let’s not even talk about family conflicts, it’s just a big deal that Po Tian is ‘ignorant’.
Jiang Susu didn't dare to speak. She had always had low self-esteem since she came to this house. Because there was no one in her natal family, she didn't speak forcefully. She was always cautious and cautious for fear of being gossiped. Now she forgot the time because of the sweet taste and was caught.
This situation made her feel aggrieved and embarrassed, and she wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl into.
Poor people don't have so much fighting, killing, right and wrong, they are busy with trivial things.
This atmosphere made Yunjing a little uncomfortable because he was in Jiang Susu's arms and stretched out his hand to his grandfather from a distance and said: "Grandpa, give me a hug..."
Seeing Yunjing like this, how could Yunlin care about anything else? He immediately came over quickly with a smile and said: "Okay, okay, grandpa, give me a hug."
With that said, he took Yunjing from Jiang Susu and held him in his arms.
In just such an instant, the subtle atmosphere in the house disappeared.
It has to be said that many times, in a family, children are the best regulators, and it is absolutely obvious at this moment.
"Xiao Jing, are you good today? Have you missed grandpa?" Yun Lin teased Yun Jing while holding her in his arms. Other things had long been forgotten.
Before Yunjing could answer, Yunshan said suddenly: "I forgot, Susu and I were teaching Xiaojing a lesson just now, so we forgot about time!"
"Why are you teaching him a lesson? Xiaojing is usually so good." Yunlin was stunned, a little confused about the situation.
"Good? Dad, you don't know. When Susu and I came back, we saw that boy playing with fire in the yard. We were so frightened that we could teach him a lesson. It would be better if we didn't teach him a lesson.
That's why we wasted time," Yunshan said angrily.
Okay, something happened to me again. Yunjing was speechless, so he simply didn’t say anything and just lay on his grandfather’s shoulder.
My parents have already beaten me. Grandpa won’t continue to teach me a lesson, right?
"Xiao Jing is playing with fire in the yard?" Yun Lin was so startled that he subconsciously asked again.
Nodding, Yunshan said: "Isn't that right? If we don't come back in time to see, maybe what will happen will happen. Dad, look over there. Xiao Jing is playing with fire. It's not complete yet.
It was put out, and then, I don’t know how, he actually made a pot of sugar.”
"No, wait a minute, Xiao Jing is playing with fire, you happen to meet him, and then teach him a lesson, why did he get involved with candy again? What candy?" Yun Lin was a little confused.
The vegetable jar where the sugar was boiled had already cooled down. Yun Shan simply carried it over and showed it to Yun Lin, saying, "Dad, look at this. We just tasted it. It's really sugar."
After looking at the sugar in the jar and smelling it, Yun Lin raised his head and looked at this and that, and finally said tangledly: "Xiaoshan, I'm a little confused. Please tell me carefully what happened before."
"...Dad, this is what happened..." After opening his mouth, Yunshan simply started from the beginning, with Jiang Susu beside him adding from time to time.
After hearing the cause and effect, Yunlin naturally would not blame Yunshan and his wife for not going to work in the fields in time. He couldn't help being afraid. He subconsciously patted Yunjing's butt and said, "It deserves a beating. It's almost necessary."
Oh my god, but your parents have already taught you a lesson, so I won’t teach you a lesson.”
After saying that, he looked at Cai Jar again and said in disbelief: "Is this really candy? Did Xiao Jing tinker with it?"
"No, Dad, try it. It's really candy. As for how Xiaojing made it, we asked him, but he couldn't tell us." Yunshan said, turning to look at Jiang Susu and said:
"My dear, bring me a pair of chopsticks and let dad have a taste."
Soon, Yunlin took the chopsticks brought by Jiang Susu and dipped a little in the jar to taste the maltose. He was shocked at how there was such a delicious sugar, even comparable to honey!
Is this really the work of my two-year-old grandson?
Although it was unbelievable, the fact was before his eyes and Yun Lin couldn't help but not believe it.
After pondering for a moment, Yunlin didn't know what he thought of. He glanced around subconsciously and then said in a deep voice: "Stop standing in the yard, come into the house and talk!"
Now he no longer cares about the work in the fields.
Yunjing, who was in Yunlin's arms, thought that his older grandfather was more reliable. His parents hadn't realized the importance of maltose after so long...
