vines and melons

Chapter 41

Guizhi rushed to the entrance of the village with surprise and surprise, and recognized it as Qunyi from a long distance, but when he got closer, he felt that it was Fang Qing's copy.She greeted warmly.

Qun Yi could tell from the expression of the woman oncoming that she must be a relative, so he hurriedly greeted her with a smile.

The two did not introduce each other, and they both knew each other's identity by feeling.

Qunyi hurried forward to call his aunt, explaining the reason for coming back.

Guizhi told Qunyi that his grandfather passed away in June last year, and the old man was still calling his grandson's name when he was dying.Thousands of miles away, and there has been no contact, no one can satisfy the old man's wish, and finally Fang Wannian left with regret.

Qun Yi regretted his belated arrival, and the two lines burst into tears.

Gui Zhi led Qun Yi to see grandma.

Fang Yuan went out, only Mother Fang Yuan was at home.Inadvertently, Qun Yi sat on the bow chair that his grandfather used to sit on when he was alive, looking like Fang Wannian.Fang Yuanniang looked at the grandson in front of her, thinking of the old man, felt sad, bowed her head and wept.It was just a year after the old man passed away, and she hadn't fully recovered from the pain.

Qunyi had nothing to talk about other than asking grandpa.For so many years, the family has changed too much, and everything is strange.To be honest, without his grandfather, he feels that he has no family affection, and he doesn't know where to start.

Fang Yuanniang answered Qunyi's questions.She didn't want to ask more questions about her grandson, who was not related to her by blood.After a brief question and answer, the grandfather and grandson looked at each other speechlessly.

Qunyi got up and said, "I want to visit the graves of grandpa and dad, so I'll leave in the afternoon, and I have to report to school tomorrow."

As soon as Guizhi sent the group to the lower courtyard, he went to Jishang to buy meat and vegetables, and went home to make dumplings.

At this time, Gui Zhi came in to take Qun Yi to the upper courtyard for dinner.After dinner, Guizhi took Qunyi to the grave, and the two of them walked to the gate, just in time to meet the two daughters who had come back from school for lunch.She said, "Jie, Joan is the number one brother in this group."

Fang Jie and Fang Qiong were taken aback at the same time. The good news came so suddenly, the two sisters felt like they were dreaming, especially Fang Jie, who wanted to have a brother so much, she was at a loss for a moment, and they gave her brother a friendly smile.

Qunyi looked at the two of them and nodded with a smile.

Gui Zhi said, You two hurried back to eat, the dumplings were put in bowls and placed on the stove, I led Brother Ye to the grave.

Fang Jie and Fang Qiong watched their brother go far away. They really wanted to see him more, but as soon as their mother introduced him, they led him away in a panic. They were still a little angry with their mother.

It's not that Gui Zhi doesn't want the two daughters to see her brother for a while, it's because time doesn't allow it. It's 12:2 now, and Qunyi is the 40:1 p.m. train.It takes [-] minutes to go from home to the grave at the fastest, and it takes more than an hour to go back and forth. I will offer incense and incense at the grave, and then go to the train station. The time is really rushed.

Fang Jie and Fang Qiong didn't eat dumplings first when they got home, but rummaged through the boxes and took out the photos and recalled their brother's appearance while looking at them.

Mom has collected three photos: one is a group photo of father, mother and Fang Jie, father is wearing a Chinese tunic suit, tall and burly, holding Fang Jie; mother looks like Sister Jiang in the movie, leaning on father's side; One is a photo of Qunyi at the age of 12, and it says Qunyi's 12th birthday commemoration; the other is a group photo of Fang Jie and Fang Qiong.

The two sisters, holding these three photos, looked at the repeated comparisons repeatedly, and sighed: Qun Yi and Dad look too much alike.

The two watched enough before serving a bowl of dumplings.
