No one expected that things would end like this. Aunt Xiao Yu went back to her parents' home that night. She must have been too embarrassed to stay here. Uncle Xiao Yu got drunk with Xiao Qiang that night.
, after all, they are brothers, broken bones are connected with tendons.
As for the money he earned in the past two days, Xiao Yu did not give it to Xiao Qiang, but gave it to his mother. To be honest, Xiao Yu didn't have any good impressions of these relatives at first, but now he is doing this, if it weren't for the two
If the child talks about it, he is afraid that he will be blamed for it.
In the next few days, relatives came one after another, including Xiao Yu's aunt and Xiao Yu's uncle. They all came with their families. There were about a dozen people in total. They had a table for adults and a table for children.
, and Xiao Yu became the leader of these children.
On New Year's Eve, the whole family was wearing new clothes. The whole family mobilized and began to kill chickens and geese and paste couplets. Xiao Yu was playing with several children in the village. Each of the children held a couplet in their hands.
Xiao Qiang bought a long gun from the town. He said that all the children in the city were playing with it. There were also some hand-wiped cannons. They were all children's toys and were not very dangerous.
On the afternoon of the 30th, when the meat was cooked, Xiao Qiang set up a table in the courtyard, and then put wine and meat on it. There were also incense and candles on the table to worship the ancestors. This was also because Xiao Yu’s grandfather’s graveyard was too far away, otherwise it would be difficult to
He went to the cemetery to worship, but it was just a formality. When Xiao Yu had nothing to do at night, he tried to summon his grandfather's soul, but he couldn't. Xiao Yu didn't know if his grandfather had really gone to the spirit world or had already
Reincarnation.
Xiao Yu and a group of children knelt on the ground and followed the adults to worship in the distance. No one said anything. After kowtowing, everyone greeted them and returned to the room. It was time to prepare for dinner. There were two tables inside.
It was filled with wine and meat, very sumptuous.
Although Xiao Yu doesn't like his relatives, after all, they are all members of his own family, and they all come from a long way away. The past is past. As long as they can get along well in the future, he is happy to accept it.
"Second brother, second sister-in-law, come on, I'll drink this glass of wine for you. You have worked hard these years! In the past few years, we were not sensible. If we did anything wrong, I hope you don't take it to heart."
As soon as everyone was served, Uncle Xiao Yu stood up, holding the wine glass, and said with sincerity on his face.
"Yes, a few years ago, we just had a child and the family conditions were not good, so if you have any regrets, please don't take it to heart, second brother and second sister-in-law. You have also worked hard with Xiao Yu these years. We plan to
Take Xiao Yu to the city. The educational conditions in the city are good, so the children will have more ways to go out in the future. What do you think?"
Xiao Yu's mother stood up, also holding a wine glass, but what she said made Xiao Qiang feel a little uneasy. After all, what the other party said was a good thing, but they had taken Xiao Yu with them for seven or six years, and they had already taken Xiao Yu away.
As his own child, how could he let Xiao Yu leave.
Xiao Yu's mother hurriedly gestured and said, "Xiao Yu is very good with us and his academic performance is also very good. We cannot let him go. Don't worry, we will not treat him badly."
Xiao Qiang lit a cigarette and said nothing. The originally lively New Year celebration suddenly became tense because of Xiao Yu. Xiao Yu was sitting on the small table beside him. Although he was eating, he was listening to the adults' conversation.
When it came time to take him away, his first reaction was to disagree.
"This is a big deal. It depends on whether the child agrees or not. We can't make the decision," Xiao Qiang said after a while.
"Hey, he is a child, what does he know? Although this Shimo Village is good, it is in the countryside after all. The children who go out in the countryside are very different from the children outside! In these years, we have also made some money, my child
You don’t have to worry about schooling at all.”
Xiao Yu's mother spoke enthusiastically, and her enthusiasm made Xiao Yu a little confused. Can love in this big city really change a person's temperament?
Xiao Qiang is also a little embarrassed. He also knows that going to a big city is good for his children, but they only have a child like Xiao Yu. Although he is not their biological child, they value it more than their own life. If he takes it away, what will happen in the future?
Thinking about coming back, it probably won’t be easy.
"Hey, we'll talk about this later. You're celebrating the New Year, why are you talking about this? Come on, second brother, let's have a drink." Seeing Xiao Qiang in trouble, Third Uncle Xiao Yu stood up and came to the rescue.
"Well, let's talk about this later. We brothers finally got together and we must get drunk today."
"Sister-in-law, come on, let's have some drinks too. It's been really difficult for you these past years."
Although Xiao Yu yearns for life in a big city, it is only a yearning. Now that he wants to practice, he cannot leave the mountain at all. If he really leaves now, then his opportunity will be wasted, so there is no need to consider this matter, even if he
If he doesn't practice, he won't leave! No matter whether his brother-in-law and his family are sincere or fake, he just needs to understand this feeling.
In Xiao Yu's room, there is a desk with five or six small bowls on it. Xiao Yu has set aside these from the dishes in advance just to keep them for the kid. After all, the kid is also a child and likes all kinds of delicious food.
It's fun.
"Xiaobao, they are taking Brother Yu away. Have you been to a big city?" Xiaoqiang stood at the table, inhaling the aroma of the food without listening, and said with an intoxicated expression.
"I haven't been there, but I heard from other ghosts that there are a lot of people in big cities, they are all houses, and the yang energy is very strong. If we go there, we probably won't be able to go out to practice."
"Oh, it's better not to go then. I think it's quite nice here. There aren't many people. We can still go out and play."
After three or four hours of eating, Xiao Qiang was extremely drunk. Fortunately, there were enough houses at home, so after getting drunk, he went directly to his room to rest. But at night, he was afraid that it would be deserted.
Already.
Seeing that Xiao Qiang and the others were drunk, Xiao Yu helped his mother clear away the dishes, then carried a small basket with some wine and meat, as well as some incense candles in yellow paper, and went to the mountain temple.
, Mountain God Mouse has helped Xiao Yu a lot since he met Xiao Yu, so Xiao Yu always remembers him.
The mountain temple looks very lively today. It is full of incense, the offering table is filled with fruits, and there are also many flowers. It should be brought by the old people in the village to seek marriage for their children, so the small mountain temple,
At this time, it looks quite decent.
"You have a good life, you eat better than me," Xiao Yu joked as soon as he entered the temple.
The mouse showed his head from under the altar. When he saw that it was Xiao Yu, he jumped out and said with some pride, "Of course, I can only use a little trick to get some incense, but I can't get it at my fingertips, right?"
, I heard that you were arrested by the police a few days ago, what happened? "
"It happened when did it happen? I'm just saying it now. It's nothing. I just went to do a small favor." Xiao Yu took an orange from the table and said as he ate it.
"It's a small matter, hehe. If you go out now, you have nothing else to do except catching ghosts, right?" the mouse teased.
Xiao Yu rolled his eyes and said, "Otherwise, wouldn't I still be able to go on a blind date?"
