Chapter fifty-seven, time flies
"It's all my favorite toys before. When I took out the wooden gyro, many friends were envious of them. They had never seen this thing." When Li Wei took out the wooden gyro when he was a child, the friends in the village would always come over to see this novel and old thing.
Li Wei remembered it very clearly that it was the first time he had become the focus.
The first time I was satisfied with my vanity, the little joy of being satisfied with my heart is still unforgettable.
"And you also like to play with this steel ring. In the past, I always remember that you were very good at playing this. You can cut from the beginning of the village to the end of the village, and you always like to play alone." Grandma Lin sighed: "You are a good child, sensible and obedient, but sometimes you are not very sociable, so I am very worried about you."
Li Wei smiled bitterly but said nothing.
After all, he is the adopted son of a Taoist priest on the mountain. First, he is not considered the original surname in this village, but second, the label of Taoist priest in the deep mountains always makes people feel a little far away from him.
"I'm afraid that you have this personality. You will be bullied when you grow up and look for a job. You see, you won't be back and become a Taoist priest..."
"Grandma, I voluntarily became a Taoist priest." Li Wei said helplessly.
"Ah...is this? You can go to Luofu Mountain to be a Taoist priest. How rich are the Taoist priests on Luofu Mountain? You have less than three incense on this temple, so you can't eat enough." Grandma Lin's tone was a little worried.
Grandma Lin’s words are really the truth. Being a Taoist priest in this Taixu Temple is really not enough to eat.
"Don't worry, grandma, I can support myself. The Taoist temples on the mountain are famous and have money for incense. You don't have to worry about food and drink, so you can rest assured."
"Really, don't comfort your grandma, I can see it... Also, will life in the mountains be inconvenient? There was no electricity there before. Even if it was opened, it would often be cut off water and electricity, which would affect life."
Like all parents, they are worried about this and that, and they are worried about Li Wei's future.
Just like Li Wei is still that child, she needs to worry about everything.
Li Wei listened silently while picking up the food, and finally said.
"Grandma, I am much more capable than you think!"
"Really?"
"Grandma, I'm grown up, able to do laundry and cook by myself, and be able to make money by myself." Li Wei said: "I'm already grown up."
I am no longer the kid who is running around in cotton pants, nor the kid who is eagerly waiting for the hot meal to come on stage in front of the stove.
I am not the boy who lost a fight at school and returned home crying and wanted to take medicine, nor is I the boy who was punished by the teacher for not reciting the text.
I am no longer the ignorant boy who needs to worry about everything and arrange everything properly.
I've grown up.
It's a man.
"You are still my little guard when you grow up." Grandma Lin still looked at Li Wei kindly and said.
"Yes, I'm growing up, and I'm still your little guard, but I don't have to continue to worry so much." Li Wei gave the lean meat clip from the braised meat to Grandma Lin.
She used to say that she ate fat because she didn't like lean meat.
Li Wei was also very happy to think that grandma really doesn’t like fat meat, and she just happens to like lean meat.
When I grew up, I realized many things that were not because my grandmother liked to eat fatty meat, but because she liked to eat lean meat, and lean meat was more nutritious.
At this time, Grandma Lin pointed to an open box on the other side of the toy box.
"By the way, here is the money I have saved from setting up a stall over the years, which is more than 70,000 yuan. If you don't want to be a Taoist priest in the mountains in the future, you can take this money and go to the county town to pay a down payment. Grandma has no ability and can't pay you the down payment in the city..."
Li Wei was squeezing the food, but there was still a smile on his face, but the corners of his eyes were sour and astringent, and tears flowed down. After so many years, she still got up early and went to set up stalls outside to sell vegetables every day.
The box contains a lot of money, many ten or fifty dollars, even if the bills of money are big, they are more fragmentary money of a few dollars or a few cents.
She is old and can’t use WeChat and doesn’t know anything about electronic payment. She can only collect change little by little and save it little by little.
Li Wei said, holding back his sorrow.
"Grandma, Xiao Wei has the ability, he has great skills, you don't have to worry about these..."
"I was always very worried about you. After the old Taoist priest left, no one helped you, and I could only resist everything by myself." Grandma Lin said with relief at this time: "But now, seeing that you are so sensible, grandma is relieved."
"No one resisted anything. After the old man left, you have always been with me and Ah Hei. I don't think I lack anything than others. Although my first half of my life cannot be said to be complete, it can be said to be complete. Grandma, because of you, my life is very complete and very happy."
Li Wei felt this from the bottom of his heart.
A complete, happy first half of life.
There may be much less than others, but these things have been filled later.
"You are mature, grandma will feel relieved..." Grandma Lin gently stroked Li Wei's head, and her kind face was filled with relief.
Li Wei ate this meal very slowly. The originally delicious meal was so delicious that the wind swept away the clouds...
But this time, Li Wei ate very slowly, just like an old man at the entrance of the village drinking tea.
When eating, Li Wei always talked about family matters with Grandma Lin, and talked about topics here and there.
But the topic ends after all, and so is the banquet between the two.
Finally, Li Wei looked at the empty desktop and lowered his head and said.
"Grandma...I'm full."
"It's good to eat when you're full, it's good to eat when you're full. It's a blessing to be able to eat." Grandma Lin smiled slightly, and said with a great sense of relief.
"You have grown up, grandma can't accompany you forever..."
"Um..."
"Woom!"
At this time, Ah Hei came to Li Wei, reluctant to leave, and then jumped on Grandma Lin's thigh.
Grandma Lin picked up Ah Hei and walked out the door, still exactly like when she was out.
"grandmother..."
Grandma Lin walked out the door with a smile, and her body gradually became translucent, and the same was true for Ah Hei.
The previous generation of people, the previous generation of dogs, are getting farther and farther away.
Li Wei watched the old man and the old dog, holding back his tears, and noticed when he just came in...
