C8

When a person's state of mind changed, the scenery in front of their eyes would change along with it.

Returning to Wenzhou, Guyu felt that the city had changed. Her childhood home had been demolished, but Dad had pointed to an old telephone pole on the corner and said, We used to have that black tiger, and we used to pee there. She wondered if there had ever been a dog in the family. Why didn't she remember? But even though she couldn't remember, she still felt that the telephone pole had something to do with her.

When he passed by a clothing store, his father greeted a bareheaded old man inside, "Uncle Qian, it's time to rest!" The man put down his tea-stained cup, showing his black teeth as he laughed, saying, "Business is not good, we can only rest!" Dad shook his head and said, "How can you not do good business? "Who doesn't know that your cooking skills are good? A business will arrive soon!" The man smiled and drank his tea with a confident look on his face.

Father whispered to her, "This Uncle Qian, his eyes are not good right now. There are many people who would like to find him for their qipao! He was the one who made your aunt's dress when she got married, and I thought how beautiful it was when she only wore it for a moment in front of our eyes. I thought, When your mother's belly isn't that big, I'll make a dress for her. But, she gave birth to all three of you in one go … Now, she probably couldn't stand the sight of uncle Qian's cooking anymore! "But now that you're back, if one day you're engaged, father will find Uncle Qian and order a piece for you. It's beautiful, but there are many flowers on it …"

Gu Yu smiled. Under his father's nagging, the clothing store and that bald uncle Qian that had just passed by also became more amiable.

"At that time, the city had to be renovated and demolished. Grandfather refused to move even if he wanted to. He said that he was afraid that you wouldn't be able to find the original house if you came back, but even if he didn't move, the entire street would have to be replanned. He can't just stand there." "In the end, after moving for just a few days, I suffered a stroke …"

"Stroke?" Gu Yu turned his head and asked, "Now …" Is it done? " She tried her best to think of her grandfather's appearance, but all she could think of was a vague, slender shadow. Her forgetting about her grandfather had formed a stark contrast with her grandfather's thoughts about her, which made her very ashamed.

"Last fall, another stroke... he died!"

Gu Yu lowered his head and replied, "Oh."

She had arrived in Wenzhou last fall. But then she was like a stray cat, just thinking about where her next meal would be. Perhaps, as she sat on the curb eating bread, her grandfather was in the wheelchair that passed in front of her. However, they missed it.

If they missed it, it would be a lifetime!

"Your grandmother is in good health. As a woman, she cried and made a scene. She thought that the house would collapse, but it turned out to be very sturdy! Unlike your grandfather, who drank with someone the night before, the kung fu practitioner who lowered his head to look for his shoes disappeared the moment he woke up! "

"Then does she still sell fruits?" Guyu used what little memory she had to talk to her father.

"If we don't sell it, then we won't be able to do it alone. "She plays mahjong every day, strolling around!"

"Oh!" She really couldn't think of anything else to say. Her memory of her grandmother was of a sapphire blue shirt, that brilliant blue.

"We've arrived." His father pointed to a residential building with orange blocks on the wall in front of him on the right. This was a house bought after demolition, and now it's been ten years. We live on the fourth floor, and Grandma lives on the ground floor. "

"Oh!" Gu Yu looked at the warm building and thought, This is home.

Home is two rooms a hall, Gu Yu has no concept of the house good or bad, entered the house feel good light, heart is full of joy.

"Gu Yu, you can sleep in this room. It's usually the two of us, sometimes …" Third Aunt He will come! "

"Third Aunt He?" Gu Yu was stunned for a moment.

"That's right …" Father was a bit bashful, "Father has been divorced for a long time, and he has lived a lonely and miserable life. Your mother didn't agree to remarry either … "

"Oh." Gu Yu turned her head. She understood what kind of role this Third Aunt He was playing.

It seemed like she was going to stay with her father's girlfriend or temporary girlfriend.

This shouldn't be a big deal, right?

She had no such experience, she thought, as long as she behaved well. After all, this was Father's home!

"Let's go buy a bed today!" Oh, now, now let's go to Grandma's for dinner! "Eat the reunion dinner!"

So, put down the luggage, not even have a sip of water, Gu Yu was pulled downstairs by father.

Dad took the key and opened the door in the middle of the ground floor. When the door opened, he saw that there was someone inside.

"Bro, this is Gu Yu?" A woman with long hair and slippers came over, holding a lollipop. God, she must be about forty! Pink from head to toe! Even the socks were pink, with a white rabbit on them.

"Gu Yu, this is your aunt!" Dad said.

"Aunt!" Gu Yu nervously called out. She had always felt that she was a long way away from people who were dressed in extremely exaggerated attire.

This aunt showed up suddenly. Is she the one from Japan?

"Hey, come come come, auntie will give you candy!" My aunt took her hand and led her inside, pressing her down on the sofa and really taking a candy bar from the candy box and giving it to her.

"Shan Shan, is our mother not back yet?" Dad sat down next to her and asked as he picked out his favorite food from the candy box.

Aunt said, "He's not back yet. He's probably in the limelight right now!"

Gu Yu couldn't understand the black words, but seeing his aunt's mocking expression, he knew there was no danger.

At this moment, she felt a slight sense of loss in her heart. Before she got on the plane, she heard from her father that Guyu had found it. At that time, his father was extremely excited, and many people in the waiting room turned to look at him. Even the people in the seats beside him were infected by his enthusiasm, so why did the people in his family not take him seriously?

She rubbed the sweet paper in her hand and saw that it was a durian candy. Durian had never eaten anything before. She had heard that it was very smelly and expensive. As for things she couldn't decide on, she wasn't sure if she should try it. If it tasted bad, wouldn't it make her aunt unhappy?

Let's not peel it first!

In fact, she'd rather have a glass of water now. She looked at her father, hoping he would help her.

Dad patted her and said, "Eat, pick out what you want from the box! "Well, your aunt has so many snacks, plum, apricot …"

She had to smile at her father. She still wasn't used to saying what she needed in front of outsiders.

Her aunt put a fashion magazine in her hand and began to chat with the computer. She did not use her hand, she did not use her voice chat the whole time, she talked in Japanese, English and Wenzhou. Gu Yu looked at the clock on the wall. Shouldn't ordinary people be busy in the kitchen right now?

Are they going to eat outside?

Well, wait a little longer!

The second time "Fashion Garden" was turned over, the door opened and a fat old lady came in. Guyu looked nervously at her father and quickly stood up.

"Grandmother!"

The old lady stopped and sized her up before revealing a smile and said, "You're already so big!" Back then, if your mother had been more optimistic, how could she have let you spend so many years in the outside world?! " He shook his head angrily.

These words made it so that Gu Yu didn't know how to respond. He didn't know how to stand, nor did he know how to sit.

Dad took his eyes off the phone and said, "Mom, you just got back. We're all hungry!"

"Hungry, you don't know how to cook in the kitchen? …" Your son is not your son, and your daughter is not your daughter.

As she spoke, she sat down and took out a bottle of Apricot Apricot Dew from under the tea table. She opened it with a "bang" and gulped it down.

Gu Yu swallowed his saliva.

The old lady finished her drink, threw the empty can into the paper basket, and stood up.

"Let's go out and eat to welcome the rain!"

Dad stood up and said to his sister, "Come on, Shan, let's go eat at the bottom of the sea! "I ate in Beijing for several days, but I still didn't eat enough!"

"What are you eating? I'm going to lose weight, you guys go ahead!" said the pink aunt, without turning her head. She looked at the screen for a moment more in Japanese, jabbering like a Japanese geisha in a war show.

"Cut you down!" The old lady threw out these words in dissatisfaction and prepared to leave with her wallet.

"Oh, Ma, don't! "Wait a minute, she's eating with you guys, I don't need to cook for her anymore!" Aunt said anxiously.

The old lady sat down again and half-heartedly told her son about his game.

"Brother Xin, the fifth brother stinks. You say he's not arrogant, but he's still fighting. The wind doesn't feel good around here!" He had a white board in his hand and kept pinching it. In the end, he didn't throw it away. No wonder he couldn't do anything! "

Dad looked up from his cell phone and said, "Uh-huh," in response.

"The same goes for Third Aunt He. She eats every card she sees and doesn't count in calculations. Her eyes are all short-sighted. If it was me, I would at least play with my cards!"

"..."

Gu Yu looked at the clock on the wall. He should have already finished washing the pots by now, right?

She still had the candy in her hand. There were coconut candy, orange candy, plum candy, coffee candy, chocolate candy, peanut butter, and prawn soups. She had eaten some of the sugar, most of it.

She was the age when she wanted to eat sugar the most, but now … I don't think so.

The aunt who lost weight chatted for a while, then came over to pick up a lollipop and continued chatting. As she chatted, she licked her lollipop at the screen, speaking English coquettishly, as if no one was around.

Gu Yu peeked at Dad. His eyes were still on the screen, so she had to go back to her fashion magazine.

"Ring —" The phone rang.

Gran lifted her fat ass to answer the phone. She nodded and turned around to say, "Qing Zi said that it's her birthday and she's not coming back."

Aunt giggled as if she hadn't heard.

The old lady said to her son: "Let's go! "Sigh, I'm old, and I don't want to move at all!"

As she spoke, she grabbed her wallet again, frowning as if she were tired of her children.

Gu Yu looked at her father who stood up. There were tears in her eyes, but she could not cry.

"Don't go!" "Dad took her hand and squeezed it." Mom, you take a rest. The two of us will go out to eat! " With that, he pulled her hand and left.

That night, the two of them ate noodles. Dad had taken care of her in the North for years, eating noodles with her.

On his way back, passing the supermarket, Dad bought noodles and instant noodles. Dad said that when he wasn't home, she could cook the noodles if she wanted to.

"What do we need for girls' things?" Dad asked.

She shook her head. Right now, his mind was still in a mess, he couldn't think of anything.

"Then let's go buy a bed!"

The two of them went to buy beds. There was a pink bed with a discount on it. Dad tried it out and got up to let Guyu try it out. Guyu just sat there and tried it out and then nodded.

To be honest, she didn't think it mattered much what bed she slept in, because she was a child who grew up in a hard bed. This was Mai Mang on one side, and cotton on the other. They would put their feet on her stomach, and sometimes they would wake up in the middle of the night to find out which one of them had dragged the quilt away, and they would have to carry them back to sleep.

"Gu Yu, is this it?" "Father confirmed it excitedly." Little girls like pink. "

Gu Yu nodded again.

In fact, she preferred plain blue. Pink, too charming. It was as if someone had to hug her, but wouldn't she be disappointed if no one caught her?

The clerk said the delivery man was off duty and wouldn't be able to deliver until tomorrow.

Dad said, how can that work, my daughter hasn't even gone to bed yet! You ask the delivery man to come, I'll give him an additional delivery fee. Fifty, you ask him if that's enough!

Fifty yuan for a bed. This was already a very expensive delivery fee. Gu Yu looked at his father and wanted to tell him, "Forget it, tomorrow is tomorrow." However, she still didn't say anything.

Because Dad was very insistent that he let his daughter sleep in this pink bed today.

The extra delivery fee inspired the delivery people at the store. Finally, there was a bed in my father's house.

She was lying on her new bed, covered with a pink quilt. I can't sleep.

There were a lot of new shirts stacked beside her bed, probably from Dad's shop. Originally, this room was like a warehouse.

The window was going to be cleaned. It was really dirty.

The cabinets had to be tidied up as well. It was really messy there.

There were white spots on the floor where the decorations had been made. How many years had it been? Ten years! He had not taken good care of it for ten years, and his father had just passed like that for ten years!

She decided that from tomorrow onwards, she would let the father and daughter live a normal life!
