Chapter 57, time flies

"They were all my favorite toys in the past. When I took out the wooden top, many friends were envious of it. They had never seen this thing before." When Li Wei took out the wooden top when he was a child, the village The little friends here will always come over to see this novel old thing.

Li Wei remembered very clearly that it was the first time he became the focus.

It was the first time that my vanity was satisfied, and the little secret joy of being satisfied is still unforgettable.

"And this rim, you also like to play. I always remember that you are very good at this game. You can paddle from the beginning of the village to the end of the village, and you always like to play alone." Grandma Lin said with emotion: "You are a good boy , sensible and obedient, but sometimes you don’t fit in well, so I worry about you.”

Li Wei smiled wryly but didn't say anything.

In the final analysis, he is the adopted son of a Taoist priest on the mountain. Firstly, he is not a real person in this village, and secondly, the label of a Taoist priest deep in the mountain always makes people feel a little respectful.

"I'm just afraid of your character. When you grow up, you will be bullied even when you go to work. Look, if you don't come back, you will become a Taoist priest."

"Grandma, becoming a Taoist priest is voluntary." Li Wei said helplessly.

"Ah, is that so? You can go to Luofu Mountain to be a Taoist priest. The Taoist priests on Luofu Mountain are so rich. You don't have enough incense in this temple, and you don't have enough food." Grandma Lin's tone was a little worried.

Grandma Lin is really telling the truth, being a Taoist priest on this Taixuguan really doesn't even have enough food.

"Don't worry, grandma, I can support myself. The Taoist temple on the mountain is now famous and has incense money. You don't have to worry about eating and drinking, so you can rest assured."

"Really, don't comfort your grandma, I can see that there is more, will life on the mountain be inconvenient, there was no electricity before, even if it was connected, the water and electricity are often cut off Yes, it will affect your life a lot.”

Like all parents, those who are worried about this and that, and those who are worried about Li Wei's future.

Just like Li Wei was still that child, she needs to worry about everything.

Li Wei listened silently while pawing the food, and finally said.

"Grandma, I am much more capable than you imagined!"

"really?"

"Grandma, I have grown up, I can wash and cook by myself, and I can earn money to live on my own." Li Wei said: "I have grown up."

I am no longer the kid running around in cotton trousers, nor the kid who is staring at the stove, waiting for the hot food to come on the stage.

I am not the boy who lost a fight at school and came home crying for medicine, nor the boy who was punished by the teacher to stand for failing to recite the text.

I am no longer that ignorant boy who needs to worry about everything and arrange everything properly.

I grew up.

It's a man.

"You're still my Xiaowei when you grow up." Grandma Lin still looked at Li Wei kindly and said.

"Yeah, I've grown up, and I'm still your Xiaowei, but I don't need you to worry about it anymore." Li Wei took the lean meat from the braised pork and gave it to Grandma Lin.

She used to say that she only ate fat meat because she didn't like lean meat.

Li Wei was also very happy to feel that grandma really didn't like to eat fatty meat, but he happened to like to eat lean meat.

After growing up, I realized many things, not because grandma likes to eat fatty meat, but because I like to eat lean meat, and lean meat is more nutritious.

At this time, Grandma Lin pointed to the other side of the toy box, an open box.

"By the way, here is the money I have saved by setting up a stall over the years. There are more than 7 yuan. If you don't want to be a Taoist priest on the mountain in the future, you can take this money and go to the county town to pay a down payment. Grandma is fine. I can't give you the down payment in the city."

Li Wei was picking up the food, with a smile still on his face, but the corners of his eyes were sore, with tears streaming down his face. For so many years, she still got up early and went late every day to set up a stall to sell vegetables.

There were 'lots' of money in the box, many ten yuan and fifty yuan bills were big bills, and most of them were small and small bills of a few yuan and a few cents.

She is old and doesn't know how to use WeChat or electronic payment, so she can only collect change little by little and save it little by little.

Li Weiqiang said while holding back his sorrow.

"Grandma, Xiaowei has abilities, very big abilities, you don't have to worry about these things"

"Before, I was very worried about you. After the old Taoist priest left, no one would help you, so I could only resist everything by myself." Grandma Lin said with relief at this time: "But seeing that you are so sensible now, grandma can rest assured gone."

"I didn't fight against anything alone. After the old man left, I have always had you and Ah Hei by my side. I don't think I lack anything compared to others. Although the first half of my life can't be said to be complete, it can be said to be It's complete, grandma, because of you, my life is complete and happy."

Li Wei felt so from the bottom of his heart.

Complete, happy first half of life.

Compared with others, it may be a lot less, but these things have been filled later.

"You've matured, grandma can rest assured." Grandma Lin gently stroked Li Wei's head, her kind face showing a trace of relief.

Li Wei ate this meal very slowly, the originally delicious meal could be finished in a whirlwind.
But this time, Li Wei ate very slowly, like an old man drinking tea at the entrance of the village.

While eating, Li Wei always chatted with Grandma Lin about family matters, a topic here and a topic there.

But the topic eventually comes to an end, and so does the banquet between the two.

Finally, Li Wei looked at the empty table, lowered his head and said.

"Grandma. I'm full."

"It's good to be full, it's good to be full, it's a blessing to be able to eat." Grandma Lin smiled slightly, with a great sense of relief in her tone.

"When you grow up, grandma can't accompany you forever"

"Um"

"Wang Wang!"

At this time, Ah Hei came to Li Wei, reluctant to let go, and then jumped onto Grandma Lin's lap.

Grandma Lin picked up Ah Hei, and then walked out the door, as usual when she went out.

"grandmother."

Grandma Lin walked out the door with a smile, her body gradually becoming translucent, and Ah Hei did the same.

The people of the previous generation, the dogs of the previous generation, are drifting away.

Li Wei just watched the old man and the old dog off, holding back tears, and noticed it when he just came in.
Grandma is gone.
