I pampered my mother in the nurturing game

Chapter 40 Longevity Lock

"I feel that there is no need to specially worship me."

Too scary!

The moment she saw her portrait posted on the wall, combined with the smoke, the rich sandalwood, and the coffin placed beside the wall, she felt that she should not be on the ground, she should be underground.

It seems that being underground is more suitable for this atmosphere.

"Once others see it, it's hard to explain."

Yu Feiwan licked his lips and struggled to find a reason.

this day...

Others are all about being popular and drinking, but she has become a popular and drinking person!
The old lady shook her head, took Yu Feiwan's hand, and said with a look of disapproval, "Don't be so modest!"

"I have been burning incense and worshiping Buddha for so many years, and I still have some research on these things."

"I know all about incense and incense."

Yu Feiwan:...

numb!

Even more numb!
Still humble?
Does she seem like a humble person?
The old lady smiled kindly and continued, as if claiming credit, "I specially put the portraits at such an angle. How could any normal person stare at a row of portraits of the masters and take a closer look?"

"If you're still worried, I can make it more abstract next time."

Yu Feiwan felt as if his throat was stuck with soft glutinous rice cake, making him feel congested and suffocated.

She finally realized that the legendary hospitality was hard to deny.

It’s really difficult!
After much thought, she decided to defeat the pretender by pretending to be a god or a ghost.

"Grandma, I am no different from a human being now."

"Now that we have entered the mortal world, we should absorb the dust and smoke, conduct human affairs, and cultivate people's hearts."

"Incense is of no use to me."

Yu Feiwan thought to himself, is this statement enough to be mysterious and high-sounding?
The old lady frowned, as if thinking about the correctness.

"Is that bad for you?" the old lady asked.

Yu Feiwan: Yes or no?
"It counts."

If she said no, the old lady might say it was better than nothing.

Hearing this, the old lady quickly let go of Yu Feiwan's hand and carefully peeled off the portrait with a cane, feeling quite at a loss.

"Can grandma give me this portrait?"

"I love so much."

Yu Feiwan had a cute smile on his face.

Let’s face it, the old lady’s painting skills are really something.

It seems that the embroidery workers are also very skilled.

If the old lady's life situation had not declined to this point, she would be drinking tea and listening to music in a graceful manner at this moment.

The old lady's cloudy and yellow eyes lit up, like a pool of water that had been brushed away from the algae, becoming clear for a moment.

"Do you like it?"

"If you like it, I'll paint it for you again. Paint it well."

"This painting was too late and many details were not good enough."

Yu Feiwan took the portrait and said sincerely, "This one is very good."

"Grandma's painting skills deserve to be lifelike."

and many more……

She came here to talk business.

However, she seemed to have forgotten the important matter.

Yu Feiwan bit the dry skin on his lower lip and suddenly remembered, "Grandma, I came here to discuss with you whether dad should go to the hospital in the city for surgery."

"You saw the conditions of hospitals in this county last time you went there."

"If the medical conditions are better, the equipment is more complete, and the doctors are more experienced, the surgical results will definitely be better, and we will be able to worry less after the operation."

"what do you think?"

The old lady's expression suddenly became serious when she thought of the county hospital with its peeling walls and only the most basic and simple examination, laboratory and radiation equipment.

Surgery is really far away from them.

Because it is far away, it is scary.

Because of fear, I long to be foolproof.Since you have decided to spend a lot of money and have surgery even though you are trying to sell everything, it is better to be more careful.

The old saying always makes sense.

"I'm old and my brain is failing. If you hadn't reminded me, I wouldn't have thought of this."

"When I heard Shuishan say that the problem was not big or serious, I felt so happy that I just wanted to burn three sticks of incense and pay my respects."

"I'm going to tell Shuishan right now."

The old lady opened the wooden box, took out a beautifully embroidered purse that had a sense of age but was extremely clean, and handed it to Yu Feiwan.

"Grandma basically doesn't have anything valuable around her."

"This purse was embroidered by grandma before she left the palace. The fabric and embroidery thread are quite exquisite. It's not valuable, so just think of it as grandma's wish."

"As people get older, many memories of their youth are blurred. This purse has been with my grandma for many years."

"I'll give it to you today, just think of it as a place to put this portrait."

"Take it."

The old lady couldn't help but put the purse into Yu Feiwan's hand.

The purse is a little faded, but still very delicate.

"Keep it."

"Grandma, I still need to discuss hospital matters with Shuishan."

The old lady urged her with a deliberately tigerish face, then left the west hall room on crutches.

Yu Feiwan held her purse and stayed where she was.

The wallet is not empty. When you open it, you can see that there is a longevity lock.

The silver longevity lock was also inlaid with gems she didn't recognize.

Engraved with the words "long life, wealth and good luck".

The older generation firmly believes that silver can calm the five internal organs, calm the mind, relieve panic and palpitation, and eliminate evil spirits.

The longevity lock is nothing more than the condensed all the good blessings and pious expectations here.

This is……

This is the old lady’s own longevity lock.

Yu Feiwan looked at the birth date engraved on the longevity lock, and suddenly felt that the purse became a little hot.

She never received the longevity lock.

The custom and taboo in my mother's hometown is that parents cannot give longevity locks to them. They must be given by grandma, uncles, grandparents, and other elder relatives.

She was brought home by her mother. Her grandparents may be alive, but they have nothing to do with her.

And my mother’s family has also become the thoughts of each grave.

Yu Feiwan stuffed the longevity lock back into his purse, not knowing whether to keep it or put it back.

She knew that the old lady was grateful for her kindness.

Her seemingly brief reminder was like a divine savior to this family.

but……

Yu Feiwan sighed, his expression obscure and complicated.

In this life, she will definitely have her own longevity lock.

Even though she had already missed the time to wear the Longevity Lock for a hundred days, she could always wait until her relatives put the Longevity Lock around her neck in person.

Yu Feiwan looked at the faded purse with a smile on his lips.

This is the old lady's intention for her, but this longevity lock also carries the old lady's most carefree memory.

Well, after a hundred years, the old lady can pass it on to her.

Now, it's better for her not to take advantage of others.

This portrait is the old lady’s thank you gift.

She took it.

Yu Feiwan put his purse on the wooden table in front of the bed and left the room briskly.

In the hall, Yu Shuishan was full of surprise.

Damn, she is really amazing!

He didn't say anything, but his mother actually knew.

Is it possible that by sincerely praying and worshiping Buddha, one can really see people that ordinary people cannot see and know things that ordinary people cannot know?
