Reborn Soul: Me and My Family

Chapter 28 Visiting Grandpa and Grandma

Mother Zhou pushed the bicycle into the yard, parked it, took the chicken and fish off the handlebars and handed them to her eldest sister-in-law, "I'm lucky to have bought chicken and fish today, please cook them for my parents." Aunt Zhou took the bag from her younger sister and opened it. Wow, this chicken must be at least 7-8 jin, not to mention the fish that weighs more than 10 jin. "Little sister, you... it's not New Year or festival now, why did you bring so many things back? I see Qingqing has lost a lot of weight since the last time she came. Although you are feeding my parents, you can keep the chicken for them and take the fish back for Qingqing to replenish her body."

Knowing that her elder sister-in-law loved her daughter, Zhou's mother was very happy: "Don't worry, elder sister-in-law! We still have some at home! People go to work and school at noon, and I will cook for them when I go back home in the evening. Qingqing and I have nothing to do at home, so we thought of coming to see our parents and you." Hearing that her sister-in-law also had some at home, elder sister-in-law Zhou was relieved. She took the chicken and fish to the kitchen, said she would stay for lunch, and hurried to cook.

Aunt Zhou was impatient, and she turned around and said, "Look at my temper. I almost forgot that my parents are in the vegetable garden in the backyard. You can go in by yourselves!" After thanking Aunt Zhou, Ouyang Qing followed Aunt Zhou into the inner room and came to the backyard. The Zhou family's old house was still very large. Not only was there a yard in the front, but there was also an open space in the backyard. After retiring, Grandpa Zhou and Grandma Zhou would study their vegetable garden behind the house every day. When they arrived at the backyard, Aunt Zhou saw two people squatting beside the vegetable garden and shouted, "Mom and Dad, I brought Qingqing back to see you." Grandma Zhou heard the voice and turned around to see that it was her youngest daughter and granddaughter. "Old man, go and see if Guilan and Qingqing are back."

Ouyang Qing put down the things in her hands, and the mother and daughter walked over quickly to help the two elderly people get tools. Ouyang Qing looked at the two elderly people in front of her whose hair was already half gray. In the dream, the hair of the two elderly people turned completely white after something happened in her family. Grandpa and two uncles ran around, but because evidence was found, they ran around in vain. Then they heard that their family was sent to the farm, and the bodies of the two elderly people were stimulated and they have been ill ever since. For those who are good to her family, she must be doubly good to them in this life: "Grandpa and grandma, it's almost noon, you are old, next time you must not work in the vegetable field in such a strong sun, even if you have to work, you have to wait until the sun goes down!"

Mother Zhou heard her daughter's chattering, and the two old people were looking at her. Because her daughter used to be relatively quiet and wouldn't talk so much at once, but since she had a fever and regained her memories of the 21st century, she has been much more lively and cheerful in recent days. "Mom and Dad are right, you have to take good care of yourselves, and let us, your children, rest assured." Grandma Zhou looked at the mother and daughter in front of her, and thought to herself, you didn't even give your dad and me a chance to speak!

After the two of them finished talking, Grandma Zhou hurriedly said (she was afraid that if she was a step late, she would not be able to get a word in): "Guilan, don't you have to go to work today? I heard Xiaoheng say yesterday that Qingqing was sick and you were at home taking care of her yesterday. It seems that Qingqing is well today. You took her around just after she got better from her illness yesterday." "Yes, Guilan, the little girl is weak and you should take good care of her. Don't run around next time. You can come to see us two old people anytime when you are free, okay?" Grandpa Zhou finished speaking in one breath. He was also afraid that if he didn't speak, he would never have the chance to say it!

Listening to the care in the two old people's tone, Ouyang Qing felt very sweet in his heart. In the 21st century, his grandma and grandpa's attitude towards him never made him feel this way. He didn't expect that here, in addition to his parents, brothers and sisters, there are also a large group of people who love him. "Grandpa and grandma, I have to go to school tomorrow. I haven't seen you for a long time recently. Don't talk about mom. You know that as long as I act coquettishly, she will agree to anything I want, okay."

Grandma Zhou's heart almost melted when she heard her granddaughter calling her softly: "Okay, okay, let's not talk about your mother. Let's go inside first. Old man, go to the room and get the egg cake that the eldest brother bought yesterday. Let Qingqing fill her stomach first." Grandpa Zhou put down the tools in his hand and hurried to the room. He took out the egg cake and opened the bag and put it on the table: "Qingqing, Guilan, you guys eat something first. There is still time before dinner. Don't be hungry."

Mother Zhou only brought a piece of egg cake to Ouyang Qing, "Mom and Dad, just enjoy it. I can't eat yet. I'll get it when you want to." Seeing that her daughter didn't want to eat, Grandma Zhou didn't say anything. She went to the kitchen and saw her eldest daughter-in-law was preparing a chicken. There was also a big fish next to her, "Axue! Where did you get so much meat, chicken and fish? I remember you bought vegetables this morning? When did you go out again? We have to be careful. It's so chaotic outside and we don't know when it will end." Grandma Zhou has always had a good relationship with her two daughters-in-law. They have been together for almost 30 years and have never quarreled.

The two have been together for so many years. Hearing her mother-in-law's concern for her, Qin Xue smiled and said, "I didn't buy this. Guilan just brought it here. She said it's for your two bodies to nourish your body. But you can't eat such a big chicken and fish. I know my sister-in-law said this to nourish the family. Seeing so much meat, I wanted Guilan to take some back for the children, but Guilan said there was more at home, so I planned to make some for lunch. Guilan and Qingqing happened to be eating here too. We can eat the rest together in the evening after everyone gets off work."

Hearing her daughter-in-law say this, Grandma Zhou understood what her daughter meant. However, the eldest daughter-in-law was also good. Although Guilan had lunch at home, she should also cook something for Guilan and Qingqing who came to visit at noon. Grandma Zhou was very happy with the eldest daughter-in-law's approach: "That's the way it should be, Axue, you did the right thing. I'll help you with whatever dishes you want to cook." While saying this, Grandma Zhou rolled up her sleeves and prepared to help with cooking. "Mom, it's rare for Guilan and Qingqing to come here, so you should go and talk to them. Besides, I can handle this lunch by myself. Go! Don't worry, I can handle it by myself."

Just like that, Grandma Zhou was driven out of the kitchen by her eldest daughter-in-law. Grandma Zhou returned to the main room with a smile, and saw the big apples and peaches on the table. Her husband was holding a big peach and eating it. "Guilan, did you go to that place today? Otherwise, why did you bring so many things home? That place is dangerous. It's best not to go there if you can, understand?"

"Mom, I just told Dad that this was sent directly to my house by a farmer that Brother Zhen knows. These are all grown by the farmer himself. Honest people don't dare to go to the black market. Brother Zhen once saw him and he has sent them to my house several times. This time, I saw that he brought so many, so I took them all. I thought of sending some to you to try. You can rest assured, it's very safe. Qingqing also washed a peach for you just now, you can eat it too." When Zhou's father heard his daughter asking his wife to eat the peach, he couldn't bear to see his wife's slow look: "Wife, you should eat one too. This is also a gift from the child. You know what, this peach is soft and sweet, and it has a strong and fresh peach fragrance. It's especially delicious. I have never eaten such delicious peaches in my life!"
