Changping Village.

After learning the lesson of pig trotters stewed with soybeans, Old Yangtou was very cooperative in the following days. He would eat whatever Yang Huazhong and Sun gave him three meals a day, and no longer had to pick and choose.

Sometimes he didn't even dare to eat at night. When I asked him why, he said he was afraid of having diarrhea last time and would rather be hungry and feel at ease.

As for Mrs. Tan, she became much more at ease under the constraints of Old Yangtou. However, Mrs. Tan and Old Yangtou slept in separate beds.

"My mother said that her eyesight was not good, and my father's legs were not good either. She always stepped on him when she got up at night, which was very inconvenient. It would be more appropriate to sleep in separate beds, so they were separated."

The second day of February was Mrs. Sun's birthday. Over at the Sun family, Lao Suntou asked Mrs. Sun to prepare a meal and invite Mrs. Sun and others to come over for dinner.

After dinner, when Lao Suntou asked Yang Huazhong about Lao Yangtou's situation, Yang Huazhong told the truth.

"My mother sleeps in the same room as my father. The two of us talk and have company. I think this is quite good." He added.

Lao Suntou nodded: "Although your father can't stand up on his legs, your mother is still with you. When you talk to him, you are not lonely at all."

"Take your father-in-law as an example. I can run and walk with these legs, but if you ask me to replace them, I would rather trade these legs for your mother-in-law to still be alive."

Lao Suntou's words made the originally cheerful atmosphere suddenly dull.

Both the elder Sun and Mrs. Sun thought of their mothers. Both sisters felt uncomfortable, and Ms. Sun's eyes were even redder.

Mrs. Sun said to Old Sun, "Dad, don't say that. Look at Uncle Yang, how pitiful he is without his legs. He can only lie in bed and stare out the window in a daze all day long."

"Besides, although my mother is gone, you still have us. We will accompany you and talk to you. Just give us your order wherever you want to go and we will be with you!"

Lao Suntou glanced at Da Sun and nodded happily.

"Fortunately you are here, otherwise, I, a lonely old man, would really not be able to survive this!" he said.

Xiaojie's father also said: "Dad, Xiaojie's daughter will have a 100-day celebration soon. How about we go to town together to celebrate your great-granddaughter?"

When he heard about the child, Lao Suntou's eyes suddenly lit up.

"Okay, then I will definitely go, I must go, she is my precious great-granddaughter!" said the old man.

"By the way, have you prepared all the gifts?" He asked Da Sun again.

Da Sun nodded: "Don't worry, everything that needs to be prepared is ready."

Old Sun nodded and looked at Mrs. Sun again: "When the time comes, you will go together. The more people we go, the more lively and festive it will be."

Mrs. Sun wiped the moisture from the corners of her eyes and nodded with a smile: "I am Auntie, so of course I want to go. Hua'er has also prepared a gold necklace and a longevity lock for Xiaojie's daughter. We will take them with us when the time comes.

"

Hearing that Xiaohua had prepared such a heavy gift, Lao Suntou and Da Sunshi were both shocked and happy.

Da Sun said: "It's too expensive..."

Sun said: "That's right. I watched Xiaojie grow up. Xiaohua and Xiaojie are also good sisters who grew up playing together. The relationship is naturally deeper than others, so it is appropriate to give heavier gifts.

."

Da Sun smiled and nodded, and did not refuse.

Giving gifts is a way of reciprocating and adding color to each other.

Now Xiaohua gave a collar to Xiaojie's child. When she comes back to wait for Xiaohua's baby, Xiaojie will naturally not be empty-handed.

Sun and Yang Huazhong did not dare to stay at the Sun family for too long. Things were different now. There were still two elderly people at home, so they had to go back quickly.

Before leaving, Lao Suntou took out a bag of tea and handed it to Yang Huazhong.

"I went back to Sunjiagou a few days ago to pay my respects in my old age. This is the old camellia I brought back from Sunjiagou. You can bring a pack to your father and let him try it. Logically speaking, he should like it." Old Suntou

road.

Because Lao Yangtou drank at his house twice before and talked about it twice.

Yang Huazhong accepted the tea and thanked Lao Suntou instead of Lao Yangtou. Then he thought of something and asked: "Father-in-law, what's going on with my eldest father-in-law now?"

The eldest father-in-law mentioned by Yang Huazhong naturally refers to the eldest son, Sun Tou.

Lao Suntou said: "You hired someone to serve him, and he is actually more energetic than when he was living with Cui'er's family of three. This is really strange."

Yang Huazhong smiled, "That's good."

Mrs. Sun couldn't help but ask, "Have Cui'er's family of three returned to Sunjiagou?"

Lao Suntou said: "Yes, I have come back. For your uncle's sake, I let them come back. However, they built their own houses at the entrance of the village. They don't live with your uncle, and they don't usually live together."

You're moving around quite peacefully."

Mrs. Sun nodded, "That's good. When the third child and I are free, we will go back to Sunjiagou to visit my uncle."

…

Yang Huazhong came to Lao Yangtou's room. Mrs. Tan had already gone to sleep, and Lao Yangtou was still sitting on the bed, staring at the dark window out of the window.

"Dad, haven't you slept yet?" Yang Huazhong was afraid of waking Mr. Tan, so he came to Lao Yangtou's bedside and called him softly.

Old Yang turned his head and smelled the faint smell of alcohol on Yang Huazhong: "Have you been drinking?"

Yang Huazhong nodded: "Today is Sun's birthday, my eldest sister prepared a table of wine and food, and I drank two cups with my father-in-law."

Old Yangtou remained silent.

If my legs were not lame, my in-laws would definitely invite me to have a drink at a dinner banquet like this.

Hey, I can't do anything with my lame leg. I can't go anywhere. I'm a useless person!

"Dad, this is the tea that my father-in-law asked me to bring you. He said it is the old camellia from the mountains behind Sunjiagou." Yang Huazhong said again.

Old Yangtou took the tea bag, opened it, grabbed a handful of tea leaves, put it under his nose and smelled it, nodded with satisfaction: "Well, not bad, I just don't like this smell, what Yong Jin brought back a while ago

Biluochun, Longjing before and after the rain, etc., I can’t taste them all, but the old camellia here is still delicious and refreshing!”

Yang Huazhong was also very happy to see that Lao Yangtou liked this tea and commented so much.

After putting down the tea leaves, he helped Old Yangtou drink water and urinate before leaving the house.

The next day, Lao Suntou, Lao Jiangtou and several old men came together to chat with Lao Yangtou.

Old Yangtou was very happy and quickly asked Mr. Tan to bring out the old camellia tea and invite everyone to drink it together.

The old men not only drank tea, but also smoked cigarettes. The room suddenly became smoky, but it also became lively, dispelling the boredom and depression that Lao Yangtou had been feeling for many days.
