Chapter 122
"OK, I know." Yang Guo said with a smile, "I will find a stepmother for Qiqi, so that Qiqi can feel the warmth of home. Well, of course, I must love Qiqi, this is the premise!"
Yang Guo muttered to himself, filling and compacting Wu Yue's shelter, and then he took out a rectangular wooden block from the long bag on his back.
When returning to Yangcheng, Yang Guo ran to find a carpenter who made it, engraved with "Tomb of my wife Wu Yue, Yang Guoli".
"In a hurry, I didn't have time to prepare a stone tablet for you, so I'll use this instead?" Yang Guo said with a smile, "come back next year for Qingming Festival, and I'll change it for you!"
After erecting the tombstone, Yang Guo stood up. He was holding a hoe and looked at the hazy and bright sky. It was almost five o'clock, and the people in the village were getting up and ready to go down!
Yang Guo didn't hurry back. He looked around, then walked to the lake and carefully dug out a bauhinia that had just grown for less than a year with a hoe.
Bauhinia is a common shrub in the south. It is very different from Bauhinia Flower in Hong Kong City. It is not so beautiful, but it is more adaptable to the environment. In the process of transplantation, it can survive even if it is inserted in the sand.
The reason why Yang Guo chose Bauhinia is that he thought of a poem "see Bauhinia flowers" by Wei Yingwu, a poet of the Tang Dynasty - "miscellaneous English has accumulated, with fragrance alone in late spring. It is also like a tree in his hometown, remembering the people in his hometown." The flower language of Bauhinia Flower also has the meaning of family harmony and deep affection. Perhaps it is most suitable to use it to commemorate the dead Wu Yue!
This Bauhinia is still small, and it is estimated that it will bloom in the next year or two. When the flowers bloom, Qiqi should also be sensible. At that time, take her to see Wu Yue. The flowers are blooming brightly, which is not a wonderful thing.
Yang Guo carefully planted this Bauhinia plant in front of Wu Yue's grave, separated a little distance, worried that its roots would disturb Wu Yue. After planting, Yang Guo stood up with a smile, clapped his hands, and said, "Wu Yue, I'm here today. I'll help you finish the land, so you can rest in peace! In the future, I will often come to see you."
Glancing affectionately at the newly piled tomb, Yang Guo picked up his hoe and walked towards the village without looking back.
It's already dawn. Back in the village, Yang Guo can hear the sound of washing and speaking from many people's yards. The farmers all rise at sunrise and return at sunset. It's not uncommon to get up at more than five o'clock. If it's late, everyone will say you're lazy!
Fortunately, Yang Guo didn't meet anyone on the way home, which saved him from making up reasons to explain.
A few years ago, my parents also got up early and went to work in the fields. After Yang Guo let them rest and quit these two years, my parents didn't have to get up so early. Yang Guo returned to the yard and the house was still quiet.
He was sleepless. After washing his hands, he began to exercise in the yard.
Or practice his Taijiquan, first slowly, fully stimulate and hone every muscle and cell of the body, and then quickly fight, dress up and move, so fast that you can't see the shadow. When I finally closed my fist, my father's voice suddenly came from behind.
"It's a good game. It's much more energetic than the old man I watched last time I went to your sister's in the county." Yang tie said with a smile, "no wonder you have grown so tall this year."
Yang Guo is a little speechless. Can those aunts and old men in the park practice health preserving Taijiquan compared with their own boxing? But he didn't intend to explain to Yang tie. He wiped a sweat, turned around, looked at Yang tie and said with a smile, "Dad, you got up so early? Why don't you sleep a little longer?"
"It's all right. People are old. They wake up by this time." Yang tie shook his hand and said. He went under the eaves, took a dry towel, wiped the dew stained bamboo and rattan bench in the yard, and then lay down comfortably.
After a while, he asked, "everything is done?"
Yang Guo nodded and said, "it's done."
"That's all right!" Yang tie squinted, grabbed a cattail fan and gently shook it, "your mother has been talking to me about this for a long time. Don't worry, you've done it, and I'll deal with it later. It's not a big deal." Although Yang tie is submissive to Xu Jinfeng at home, he is also a talker in the clan and a figure in the village. Sometimes, for the major events in the village, the foreign student doll village head has to ask him for advice, which is also what Yang Guo admires his father.
Last night, Xu Jinfeng couldn't help telling Yang Ping about Yang Guo's return. So this morning, Yang Ping and her brother-in-law Yang chongguan rushed back from the county.
Yang Ping dared not recognize Yang Guo when she saw him. She is really unbelievable. The younger brother she grew up with has become so tall in the blink of an eye. He doesn't look like a southern race at all!
When the two of them came back, of course, the happiest thing was their son Yang Linjie, but Yang Linjie was robbed of the limelight by Qi Qi again. Yang Ping just hugged and kissed, so she put her baby son aside and hugged Qi Qi intimately, looking left and right.
Yang Linjie was not as jealous as he was yesterday. Yang Guo gave him the transformers toy before it was warm. After being put down by his mother, he ran to the house and took the transformers out to show off in front of his father.
After putting down Qiqi, Yang Ping pulled Yang Guo aside and said seriously, "fruit, what do you think?"
"What do you think?" Yang Guo laughed.
"Before you get married, you take one... One..." Yang Ping hesitated a little later. Yang Guo knew that she wanted to say the word "mops", but Yang Guo didn't blame her.
"Sister, don't worry about me!" Yang Guo patted Yang Ping on the shoulder and laughed.
"How can I not worry about you?" Yang Ping was a little annoyed. She said, "mom told me that you went to the blind date arranged for you once, and then you never went again. How can you find your daughter-in-law if you don't have more contact with other girls?"
Yang Guo said with a wry smile, "elder sister, don't mention blind dates. Blind dates are the most unreliable thing!"
Yang Ping stared at him and said, "who says it's unreliable? I didn't know your brother-in-law on a blind date?"
"That's different. You were lucky. No, my brother-in-law was lucky!" Yang Guo said with a smile, "besides, I'm also twenty-three or four years old this year. Is it necessary to worry about my life so soon?"
"If you don't have children, you can play as you like, but now it's different!" Yang Ping said bitterly, "if you don't get married when your child is still young, what will you do if you won't let you find a wife when your child is old and sensible? Besides, other girls didn't think you had such a big child at that time! You can't hide it if you want to!"
"Don't hide. I'm looking for my wife. First of all, she must be able to accept and like Qiqi. This is the premise." Yang Guo said seriously, "if she doesn't like Qiqi, I won't accept her. Besides, I think you really don't have to worry about me. When fate comes, your wife will come!"
After chatting with her sister for a while, Yang Guo drove to the town to buy vegetables with her mother, sister and brother-in-law Yang chongguan, because it was not only the Yang Guo family, but also invited several uncles and other relatives of the family to come over for dinner today. It was regarded as taking Qiqi to recognize everyone, so there were a lot of vegetables to buy. The whole family was mobilized, leaving Yang tie to watch Yang Linjie at home.
Holding Qiqi, Yang Guo followed them with a smile and a basket. The vegetable market in the town is not as tidy as that in Yangcheng, but it is better than that it is rich in "dishes"! Especially the seafood, which was just sent by the fishermen who went to sea last night, is very fresh, and none of it is frozen!
Many people in the town food market are also out of the village. They are still very familiar with their mother and sister. Looking at Xu Jinfeng greeting them, Yang Guo can only open his mouth. I don't know how to call him! In fact, some Yang Guo is still a little impressed, but after he went to high school and University, his insight and his circle of friends will no longer stay in the small county. His bad memory in the past is blurred now.
Yang Guo couldn't help cooking. My mother, sister and several village women all took the work. Yang Guo has no time to intervene. He has to be busy coaxing Qiqi, who is crying all the time!
Qiqi was still very happy today. She could go shopping with her father and take a bus, but when she got home, seven aunts and eight aunts crowded over to see her. The lovely Qiqi is naturally deeply loved by everyone, but it's not enough to see! Soon, Qiqi was carried out of her father's arms, and several women smiled and hugged.
The hugger was not willing to put down, and the waiting people couldn't help touching Qiqi's delicate little face. Qiqi was tossed about by these motherly women.
Qiqi soon turned sunny and cloudy. Finally, she couldn't bear it and simply cried. She waved her small hands and cried loudly and vaguely, "Dad... Dad!"
Hearing the sound, Yang Guo ran over and loved her daughter, so she quickly took Qiqi back, but Qiqi didn't cooperate this time. She didn't want to stop when she returned to her father's arms. She just put her arms around her father's neck and sobbed wrongly. Tears covered Yang Guo's neck, and didn't stop until she was about to eat.
The banquets in rural areas are naturally not as exquisite as those in big hotels, but they are very rich. There are a wide range of seafood such as fish, scallops, prawns and abalone, and meat dishes such as chicken, duck, streaky pork and roast suckling pig are filled into a hill on the plate. There is no delicate cooking, but the big pot has a big taste. It can be cooked enough to eat. Everyone is not very selective, and what they eat is just lively!
Many people sat down to eat and left the table in a hurry. Only a few uncles at the main table sat there safely, and Yang tie was comfortable chatting and drinking with them.
Yang Guo was busy clinking glasses with relatives who came to propose a toast. Yang Guo vowed not to drink any more. He didn't drink this time either. He secretly prepared a bottle of boiled water with a little taste of alcohol for himself. Relying on this bottle of boiled water, he deceived many people.
The bustling home also made Yang Guo forget the sadness of burying Wu Yue in the morning. Indeed, the dead rest in peace, and the living still have to live a good life.
