The Story of Qingfeng Village

Chapter 78
Liu Li woke up amidst the chirping of birds.

For a moment he didn't know where he was?
Looking at the top of the mosquito net, and then at the window on the left covered with plastic sheeting, he remembered that he was living in the room where his mother used to live in at his grandparents' house in Qingfeng Village.

Liu Li got up, the yard was quiet, and he didn't see grandpa and uncle.

Grandma stuck her head out from the kitchen, "My dear grandson, you're up, don't you want to sleep a little longer?"

"No, grandma, I've gotten used to it since I was in school."

"Have a good habit, go to bed early and wake up early."

"Grandma, where are my grandfather and uncle?"

"I went to the slope with your grandfather Deshun early in the morning."

Liu Li walked into the kitchen and saw that Wang Deshun's house was burning a fire. On the big stove, there was water boiling in a large iron pot in front, and several small pots in the back were steaming.

There is a smell of rice wafting out.

Grandma took the washbasin and scooped hot water from the ear pot behind it for Liu Li, "Come on, dear grandson, go wash your face, it's cool in autumn, don't take cold water."

"Oh, good. Thanks grandma."

Liu Li took the washbasin to the laundry table in the yard to wash up.

From Wang Deshun's family: "You are such a sensible and well-behaved child, sister-in-law, you will always enjoy yourself."

Aunt Li: "The children are all filial...it's a pity..."

Liu Li came in: "Grandma, do you need my help?"

Aunt Li: "With your Granny Wang helping to light the fire, there is nothing to do, just breakfast..."

From Wang Deshun's family: "I always say to eat at my house, but your grandma insists on cooking it herself, as if my family's food is not acceptable."

Aunt Li: "I'm back at my own house, of course I have to cook by myself, would you mind eating it every day?"

"Why are you embarrassed? You haven't used this thing for a long time... This big iron pot is rusty..."

Aunt Li: "This big iron pot is rusty and I won't use it for the time being. The other small pots can still be used. It's okay to cook this breakfast first, and I'll fix the big iron pot later."

"Sister-in-law Li, the cauldron is cured, are you still going to feed the pigs?"

Liu Li: "Well feed the pigs, well feed the pigs, grandma, I'll help you mow pig grass, I'll fetch water for you, and kill the New Year pigs during the Chinese New Year..."

Wang Deshun's family laughed: "It's a child after all. I'm looking forward to the New Year. Sister-in-law Li, when you come back this year, it's time to be lively. I haven't killed a pig for many years. Sister-in-law, if you want to feed it, now Just right."

Aunt Li was silent for a while and said: "Qiangwa means to settle the matter of the base station and we will go back..."

From Wang Deshun's family: "Ah, I thought you wouldn't leave when you came back, at least you and Brother Li wouldn't leave, and our two sisters are also in company, so you still have to leave when you're in love..."

Liu Li: "Grandma, you really want to go back, I just came here, I don't know the place, I...I want to be filial to you and grandpa... But you all left, leave me alone What's the matter?"

Aunt Li hesitated.

One side is a filial son, and the other is a grandson who was just found. The palms and backs of the hands are full of flesh. How do you choose?
In fact, she still wants to come back.

But there are some things that she can't decide as a woman.

Liu Li: "Grandma stay here, I'll take care of you, I'll cook for you... It's too troublesome to make a fire, now there is electricity, I'll buy you an electric rice cooker, an induction cooker, an electric kettle, an electric frying pan... and it's clean And hygienic..."

From Wang Deshun's family: "Tsk tsk, look, young people are still thoughtful. Sister-in-law Li, your grandson knows how to live. You are always blessed."

Aunt Li wondered: "I want to stay, the golden nest and the silver nest are always inferior to my dog's nest. It's better to be at home. But I don't know what the old man thinks."

Wang Deshun's family said: "Didn't you say that you are in charge of this family? You should act like the head of the family and be the master for a while. Stay."

Liu Li cheered up from the side: "Well, you are the master, stay here."

Aunt Li was a little moved.

"But Qiang Wa..."

Liu Li: "If my uncle wants to go back, let him go back. After all, he also works, so you and grandpa can stay."

If it is impossible for everyone to stay, then the next best thing is to make grandpa and grandma stay, which is also a big victory.

So Liu Li started acting coquettishly.

"Grandma, you're really willing to leave me here alone, what if I'm hungry, what if I'm thirsty...I..."

Wang Deshun's family was also winking, and hurriedly made up the knife: "Yes, sister-in-law Li, you also know that the school doesn't have a lunch group, and your good grandson can only steam rice with those schoolchildren, committing crimes, Other dolls can also bring some salted vegetables and kimchi from home for dinner. If you are not at home, your good grandson will not be able to fish or pickle sea peppers.

But don’t be afraid, my good grandson Liu Li, if you don’t dislike your grandpa Deshun and your mother-in-law, come to my house for dinner. If you get tired of eating, you can go to your second master Zhu’s house to eat for a few days, and each family will eat in turn. The old men and old women in our Qingfeng Village who stay here can still smear your mouth and leave you hungry..."

Liu Li: "That's not eating hundreds of meals, good, good, how many meals are eaten at this one, how many meals are eaten at that one, and there are many flavors...Eat in different ways..."

Aunt Li took a spoonful and said, "What's good? It's not that there is no one in our Li family, and my good grandson is not a beggar, so I need to beg for food, eat some from this family, and eat from that family? That's not the case." Go and eat at home."

From Wang Deshun's family: "Aren't I out of good intentions? I'm afraid of starving Liu and Li's grandson, so I just go to beg for words?"

Aunt Li: "I have decided not to leave, at least I will stay and take care of my good grandson while he is teaching here."

"Grandma, I'm an adult now, and I know how to take care of myself."

"No, no matter how old you are, you are still a child in front of me.

You don't know how to take care of yourself at all, and shook out the quilt last night.I got up and covered you.You also said that you know how to take care of yourself, but fortunately it's not winter, otherwise you must catch a cold. "

Liu Li smiled shyly, "It might be hot."

Aunt Li: "Grandma hasn't taken care of you for so many years, let grandma take good care of you now."

When I think of my daughter leaving early and leaving the child to live with two careless men, I don't know how much I have suffered.Aunt Li felt distressed.

How does a child without a mother grow up, and commit crimes.

I didn't take good care of him before.
I have to make up for it now, take good care of my grandson, at least let him have hot soup and rice when he comes back from school.

What's more, fallen leaves always have to return to their roots, and I am not too young. After going out for so many years, my son is filial, and I eat what I should eat and enjoy what I should enjoy.

It's time to come back and guard your own home.

It's not good, it's also my own home.

Keep it for yourself, and keep it for the children.

Aunt Li has already made up her mind.She didn't leave no matter what.

If the old man wants to leave, let him go, and stay with his grandson.
