Qin Yu's hometown, and for Qin Yu, it seems that he has not taken a good look at it for several years. Although he has come back in the past few years, he always comes and leaves in a hurry.
Now, half a month has passed since the incident at the ancient Xuhou Tomb, and Qin Yu came back this time because his grandma's 100-year birthday has come.
In the south, in Qin Yu's hometown, there is a custom of holding a birthday celebration every time he turns ten, from ten, to twenty, to thirty... to sixty, and so on.
Especially after the age of seventy, people pay more attention to it. Seventy-three and eighty-four years old, which are not ten years old, are also held. The reason is very simple, because Confucius lived for seventy-three years and Mencius lived for eighty-four years.
.So people think that these two years are the threshold for old people, and they must celebrate and celebrate to avoid disasters.
There is even a proverb like this in some places: "Turn a corner at thirty-three, lose a piece of flesh if you don't die at sixty-six, and die at seventy-three and eighty-four, and the king of hell will not ask you to go."
There are many details about the birthday banquet for the elderly, but this is called Yang longevity, but there is another kind of longevity called Yin longevity.
Although some old people died early, they still want to celebrate their birthdays, which are also organized by their descendants. Such birthday banquets are called Mingshou.
Different from Yang Shou's feasting and feasting, Ming Shou only eats meat on the last day. The first few days are all vegetarian. Even the oil used for cooking can only be vegetable oil, in order to show respect to the ancestors and immortals and Buddhas.
of respect.
The specifications of Ming Shou are divided into several levels as well as Yang Shou. The specific way to congratulate is generally discussed by future generations. Those who are rich will organize it for seven days, those who have no money may celebrate it for one day, and generally it is four days.
Qin Yu, as a great-grandson, must be there. Not only that, but all four of his children are also brought back, because as descendants of blood, they have to cry filial piety, and this time Qin Yu's grandmother's death
It means that it will be held for seven days.
Seven days, this was not suggested by Qin Yu, but was discussed by his uncles, uncles and elders, because just like Yang Shou, holding Ming Shou is also an opportunity to show the strength of the family to the neighbors.
"Dad, it's grandma!"
As soon as he left the train station, Manman saw Qin's mother waiting at the exit. He immediately let go of Meng Yao's hand and ran towards Qin's mother.
"Grandma! Grandma, have you missed me?" She ran toward Mother Qin with her little feet, threw herself into Mother Qin's arms, and shouted sweetly.
"Oh, my dear grandson, you miss grandma so much." Qin's mother hugged Manman and said with a loving look on her face.
"Mom, why are you here?" Qin Yu smiled bitterly when he saw his mother coming to pick him up in person. He had already told his mother to stay at home and wait for his cousin to pick him up.
"I'm not picking you up, I'm picking up my daughter-in-law and my good grandchildren." Qin's mother gave Qin Yu a roll of her eyes, "As for you, it's really hard for me to see you. You are
Busy man."
"Mom, Qin Yu has something to do. In fact, Qin Yu misses you, but there is nothing he can do." Meng Yao on the side continued to help explain.
In fact, what Meng Yao doesn't know is that Qin's mother doesn't really blame Qin Yu. As parents, what they hope most is that their children can make a difference. As long as their children can make a difference and live a good life, even if they are accompanied by
It doesn’t matter if you have less time for yourself.
The reason why Qin's mother said this was just because she was used to complaining. If she really asked Qin Yu to accompany her every day, or come back to see her every now and then, she would be even more unwilling. It would take a few days.
Drive Qin Yu back.
Qin Yu also understood this and knew that his mother was not angry, so he just let his mother speak and Meng Yao explained the scene.
After being intimate with Yuan Yuanyuan and Xiao Feng for a while, Mother Qin's eyes finally fell on Ling'er. At this sight, Mother Qin's heart skipped a beat, and the expression on her face suddenly became complicated.
"Xiaoyu, this child?"
Qin's mother was murmuring in her heart at this moment, because she could tell at a glance that the relationship between the little girl and her son was probably not simple, because she had watched Xiaoyu grow up, and the little girl had the same relationship as when she was a child.
Xiaoyu looks very much like him.
Therefore, after asking this question, Qin's mother looked at Meng Yao and Mo Yongxin. She wanted to see the expressions of her two daughters-in-law.
"Mom, you can tell, Ling'er is my daughter, your granddaughter." Qin Yu's expression didn't change much and he replied with a smile.
"What did you say!"
Mother Qin's voice suddenly rose by one decibel, which suddenly aroused the curious eyes of many people.
"Let's go back first."
Qin's mother didn't speak anymore, but her face darkened, and she walked directly towards the parking lot alone. This made Qin Yu a little strange, what happened to his mother?
"Dad, does grandma hate me?" Ling'er saw Qin's mother's expression and said to Qin Yu timidly.
"Ling'er, why does grandma hate you? Grandma is angry with dad." Qin Yu touched Ling'er's head, and then looked at each other with Meng Yao and Mo Yongxin.
"Mom, what's wrong?" Meng Yao was also a little confused. According to what they had discussed before, Ling'er's sudden appearance might surprise Qin's mother, but it wouldn't be like this.
"I'm afraid some people are going to suffer."
On the contrary, Mo Yongxin blinked at Qin Yu with her beautiful eyes, the corners of her mouth turned up slightly, with a touch of playfulness, "Yao Yao, we will watch the show soon."
…
Along the way, Mother Qin didn't say a word. The atmosphere in the entire carriage was very low. Even Yuanyuanman and the others could feel that something was wrong with the atmosphere. It was rare for the children not to make any noise, but Ling'er's mouth was filled with sadness.
She almost cried when she pouted, but the little girl was strong and kept holding on, letting the tears only roll in her eyes.
Half an hour later, Qin's mother drove the car into the yard, opened the door, got out of the car, and walked straight towards the hall.
"mom!"
Qin Yu finally couldn't help it. His mother's abnormality today was beyond his expectation. The most important thing was that he couldn't bear to look at Ling'er's sad expression.
"You come into your father's study."
Qin's mother stopped, turned around and said something to Qin Yu, then walked into the hall and walked directly towards the study.
Qin Yu was puzzled, but he could only let Mo Yongxin take care of Ling'er first, and he quickly kept up with his mother's pace.
"Mom, you...?"
Qin Yu walked into the study and was about to speak, but he bumped into a ruler and swiped it directly towards his arm. However, based on Qin Yu's reaction, it was impossible for the ruler to touch his arm.
On the body.
Just looking at the owner of the ruler, Qin Yu sighed, and then accepted the ruler.
Snap!
The ruler hit Qin Yu's arm, leaving a faint mark. Qin's mother looked at the shallow mark, and a look of distress flashed through her eyes at first, but then she straightened her face and pointed the ruler at Qin again.
Yu pulled his arm away.
"How did I educate you when you were a child? How did your father and your grandfather educate you? No matter whether you become a successful person or not in the future, you must never forget your roots and never regret your own conscience."
Qin's mother said to Qin Yu while holding the ruler, "Yao Yao and Yong Xin are two good girls. They are beautiful and sensible, and their family background is so good. They don't dislike you, and they can also do things for you."
You made sacrifices, don’t you feel you are in debt?”
"Sometimes when I hear them calling me mom at the same time, I feel happy and sad at the same time. I feel sad for them both, but in my heart I feel selfishly happy because the two best girls in the world are mine.
Daughter-in-law.”
"But what about you? Not only do you not cherish it, but you are also flirting with others outside. Don't think that I don't know about you and that female star, and don't think that Yaoyao and the others don't know either." Qin's mother said coldly.
Looking at Qin Yu, the more he talked, the angrier he became, and the more he spoke, the more he got angry.
"Mom, I really have nothing to do with Li Siqi." Qin Yu smiled bitterly. This happened many years ago, and he really had nothing to do with Li Siqi.
"What about this little girl? Who is her mother?" Upon hearing Qin Yu's words, Qin's mother seemed to be even more angry.
"Xiaoyu, our Qin family has never had anyone who forgets his roots. You should not abandon a poor wife, not to mention Yaoyao and the others are so beautiful. Don't look at Yaoyao and the others who married you and gave birth to children. As long as they are willing
, I don’t know how many men are willing to marry.”
"Yes, I know you are powerful now, you are very capable. I heard Yaoyao and the others say that you are a national master in the metaphysics world, and your status is still very high, but don't forget, you were born by me, you are
No matter how powerful you are, I dare to beat you and teach you a lesson!"
Qin Yu smiled bitterly. He finally knew why his mother was angry, and he also understood why Mo Yongxin said that she was going to suffer. Mo Yongxin had obviously guessed what his mother was thinking before.
"Mom, listen to me, this matter is really special." Qin Yu could only explain that although the ruler hitting him was nothing, he was feeling depressed. Moreover, his mother was not even that old.
When he was young, although he managed well due to his own fault, it will always be harmful to the body if he is angry for a long time.
"I listen to what you say, and I don't stop. In short, I tell you, if you dare to take that daughter home, then I will not have your son. I can do without your son, but I cannot do without my two daughters-in-law.
"
"Well……"
Qin Yu was speechless for a moment. He knew that his mother probably wouldn't be able to listen to any of his explanations at this time. Just when he was feeling worried, there were several knocks on the door in the study, and then Mo Yongxin pulled Ling'er in.
.
"Mom!" Mo Yongxin shouted affectionately towards Qin's mother.
"Yong Xin, you came just in time. I will beat this unfilial son to death today. Anyway, don't worry. As long as mom is still alive and breathing, I will not let you and Yaoyao be bullied." Mother Qin stepped forward and pulled her away.
Holding Mo Yongxin's hand, he pointed at Qin Yu with a ruler and said.
"I know Mom, you love us the most, but you should listen to me first about this matter." Mo Yongxin gave Qin Yu a look that meant he should leave first. Qin Yu understood, smiled bitterly, and left the study first.
