all the way

Liu Xia told the family about Wang Junyu's proposal, and Liu Changqing thought it was acceptable. It was really unseemly for the groom and the guest to meet the bride in sweat suits, especially if Liu Chuan was allowed to rest for a night before running those few trips, the family felt much better. After a while, I just feel a little sorry for several people to disturb Wang Junyu.

Liu Kui suggested bringing two mats, and Wang Junyu had a single bed, and they could just spread out the mats and sleep on the floor. Liu Chuan said: "I don't care, I can sleep on the street, let Xiaoyu sleep well, and then I will be refreshed." Just tap."

So it was decided.

NO.30 When eating breakfast, Liu Yu said: "Xiao Ling, don't you bring a camera? Let's take a family portrait later."

Xiumei said, "Didn't you say to wait for your sister to come back before taking pictures?"

Liu Yu said: "It's not just a piece of film, let's take a picture when they come back, I want to take a picture with my brother and the others alone, I don't want to ask my eldest brother-in-law to put it in too."

The conditions of Chang Zhijie's family are relatively good in their locality, and he has always been kind to Yunzhi, but in the second year of their marriage, Chang Zhijie became a regular worker in a small subsidiary factory under the Color Gold Factory. Later, his attitude towards the Liu family began to change subtly. When he and Yunzhi went back to his mother's house two or three times a year, Liu Yu, who was young at the time, could feel the sense of superiority that he and Yunzhi showed at most two or three times a year. All the children below Liu Yu don't like him.

Through the efforts of her father-in-law, Yunzhi's private teacher had become a regular teacher the year before last. After that, when Chang Zhijie came to the Liu family again, he returned to the respectful attitude he had towards the Liu family before his marriage.

But Liu Yu believed that he saw that his third brother Liu Chuan was working in the Public Security Bureau, and that Liu Chuan would be needed in many places in the future, and that Liu Xia, Liu Ling, and Liu Hai had all been admitted to good universities and would definitely have a bright future in the future. So now Liu Yu is even more annoying to Chang Zhijie. If the adults in the family hadn't educated him, his attitude towards Chang Zhijie would have troubled Yunzhi's life in her husband's house. After Ling Ye was admitted to the military academy, he was so vicious towards him when he visited Liu's house for the first time.

Liu Changqing asked Liu Ling: "Do you have enough film?"

Liu Ling said: "Enough, ten volumes."

Liu Changqing said: "Let's take some photos for a while. You guys will take more photos. Tomorrow your third grandpa will come and I will take some photos for your grandpas. They are all getting old, so it's not easy to go out and take photos."

The family portrait of the Liu family was taken by Liu Miao with the help of Liu Changqing, Sun Chang'e, and Liu Changchun sitting in the middle, holding Liu Yun, Liu Lei, and Liu Nana respectively. The brothers stood behind with Xiumei and Su Xiaohui.

The family portrait was taken twice, one with the cave dwelling behind, and one with the verdant Fengxi Mountain in the background.

Now Liu Ling has a lot of experience in framing scenes. After he took the scene, he asked Liu Miao to hold the camera. He ran back and stood in his place, and Liu Miao just pressed the shutter.

Liu Ling said: "This time the photo must be beautiful. When the persimmons turn yellow in autumn and the trees on the mountain will turn red, let's take another photo. It will definitely feel like someone in the painting."

The next free combination, the first one was suggested by Liu Changqing, let the seven brothers take a picture for themselves, and the children of Liu Wei's generation take another picture.

Liu Fulai also took a photo with his three sons, Liu Ling took the initiative to take a photo for the three brothers Liu Miao, and Jianbin and Chengbin also took several photos together.

Mao'er insisted that Liu Xia sit on the swing and hug him to take a photo. Liu Ling simply asked them to pose in various poses for the photo. Mao'er sat on Liu Xia's lap, Liu Xia sat on the swing, Mao'er The one holding the rope and standing behind Liu Xia on the swing, and the two standing on the swing, the cat in front, and the one behind Liu Xia, anyway, it was Mao'er's whimsical appearance, and Liu Ling took a picture of it.

When the last photo showed Liu Xia sitting on a swing and Liu Kui hugging the cat around Liu Xia’s neck, Liu Xia accidentally saw Liu Mao standing under the big persimmon tree looking at them with dazed eyes .

After lunch, a large group of people jumped into the Fengxi River to cool off. Liu Xia carefully looked at the cat sitting on the stone and playing with the splash of water with his feet. It was dark, but Liu Xia could still see Xu Xiaohong's shadow on his face.

Liu Xia still remembered that Xu Xiaohong was not the kind of woman with bright eyes and bright teeth, but she was very attractive. The most beautiful thing about her was her eyes. Although they were not big and her double eyelids were not obvious, her eyes were thinner than ordinary people's. To black.

Xiumei once said: "Little Hongli's eyes are like black glass, so pretty, if she gives birth to a daughter in the future, she will grow her eyes like fine hair, and Liu Mao's figure and handsome vigor , I wonder how beautiful our Nier will be!"

The cat's eyes are as big as Xu Xiaohong's, they are not big, they are very dark, and they give people a very clean and clear feeling. The eyelids seem to be double but not double, and they look very comfortable.

Liu Xia slapped the river vigorously with his feet, and the water splashed on the cat, which made the cat giggle.

Liu Xia gently asked Liu Ling beside him: "Fifth brother, after a few days of Ghost Festival, is it too early to ask Maoer to visit the grave of the second sister-in-law? I want to ask him to visit the grave of the second sister-in-law after he is 12 years old.

I heard from my mother before that a child’s soul can only grow steadily after the age of 12. When the youngest goes to the grave, the child will be hooked by the ghosts of his ancestors who are waiting to see him, and the child will get sick. "

Liu Ling looked at the cat whose feet were slapping the water desperately to fight back against Liu Xia, and then pretended to casually glance at Liu Mao who was sitting in the river talking with Liu Kui and Liu Chuan not far away, and said, "If you don't Don't worry, it will be two years later. Don't go to my uncle's place the day after fourth brother gets married. On that day, fourth brother and fourth sister-in-law will visit our aunt's grave, and second brother will definitely go too.

We don't like husband and wife paying homage to graves here, the second sister-in-law's grave is placed next to our aunt, and the second brother can't go to see it, he must feel very uncomfortable, if he sees the cat again, our second brother will be so heartbroken Vigorous, must suffer to death. "

Liu Xia said: "I'm afraid that some people will say that the cat is not filial because of this. Then whose family is the one in Zhangjiabao, the child started to visit his mother's grave when he was five years old. Now everyone in the village says that the cat is not filial. He is filial."

Liu Ling sneered and said, "Zhang Fuchun? He's a filial ass. After he got married, he didn't care about his uncle at all. He said he hated his mother and died because his uncle was delayed. How ridiculous. Every time I go to his mother's grave Just kneeling for a long time, pretending to be filial, but not even looking at his living father when he got home, many people in the world like to watch this kind of hypocritical tricks, Yaoer, we can't learn from this kind of person.

The cat is still young, and he has never seen our second sister-in-law, why do we add this psychological burden to the child for no reason?Tell the child to live happily, don't think about those things, just..."

"Ah, I caught you Uncle, how dare you ignore me for anything you tell Uncle Fifth?" Mao'er suddenly threw himself into Liu Xia's arms with a whole body of water, and laughed and squeaked at Liu Xia.

Liu Xia led him into the water, scratching his ribs: "I said you were so exhausting all day long, so we discussed how to fix you, and called you Uncle Creak..."

Mao'er was out of breath with a smile: "Ah, uncle, I won't try to find power anymore... I will never draw glasses for Xiao Yun and Xiao Lei again... I will draw big turtles..."

Liu Hai rushed over and pressed the cat, and it squeaked violently again: "You little smelly cat, you recruited yourself, your third uncle and others have wronged me so much and you don't even admit it, I am more wronged than Dou E..."

A few days ago, Liu Yun and Liu Lei were taking a nap in their cave dwelling in Liuchuan. Seeing that they had fallen asleep, Su Xiaohui went out with Xiumei to Liu Yu's new house to tidy up the last details. Half an hour later, Sun When Chang'e came to see Liu Yun and Liu Lei, she found that the two little guys had big glasses painted on their faces with a brush, and their belly was surrounded by a navel, and each of them was a big turtle.

Because the weather is too hot these days, the shade of the trees in the yard is too hot, so the children practice calligraphy and do their homework in the cool cave dwelling in the afternoon.

At that time, Liu Rui and Liu Xin were taking a nap in Liu Kui's cave, and Liu Wei was in charge of taking care of them while doing their homework. Only Mao'er followed Liu Xia in their cave.

Liu Xia went out to use the toilet in the middle, it took a little longer, and he didn't find anything unusual after he came back.

When Sun Chang'e asked, Liu Xia suspected that Mao'er did it, but Mao'er looked at him innocently and said that he had been practicing calligraphy obediently.

Liu Xia believed in Mao'er unconditionally, and swore to testify to Mao'er that it was definitely not him.

Maoer also testified to Liu Xia, saying that the uncle didn't take a brush when he went out, and it was impossible to draw glasses and turtles for his brother.

Therefore, Liu Hai, who was working with Liu Kui, Liu Yu, and Liu Ling at Liu Changchun's side below, and who happened to be home at that time to drink tea water with sugar, became the biggest suspect.

Liu Hai yelled that he was wronged, and said that he would not be at such a poor level if he drew it casually, and that such ugly glasses and turtles would definitely not come from the hands of a talented student of the Academy of Fine Arts.

But because he had no witnesses, Liu Yun and Liu Lei's overly chubby tortoises, who still wore big glasses with bent legs, were regarded by everyone as Liu Hai's attempt to cover up.

Because in the end it was only suspicion, so Chang'e Sun had no choice but to point to Liu Hai, Liu Xia and Mao'er and said, "This matter can't get away with you three cowardly grandchildren, if I find out who did it one day , See if I don't chop off his claws."

This incident was not a big deal at first, the two little guys woke up and carried them to the Fengxi River to wash everything away.

But the problem is, after Liu Yun and Liu Lei woke up, they liked their glasses and tortoise very much. Keep the glasses and the tortoise first, and don't let the child cry.

As a result, Liu Yun and Liu Lei behaved like dirty monkeys for two days, but refused to take a bath for fear of washing their glasses and tortoise, which made Su Xiaohui trembling when sleeping with them for two nights, not daring to take a bath. touch them.

On the third day, while they were falling asleep during their lunch break, Xiumei and Su Xiaohui boiled some hot water and wiped their bodies. After they woke up, they cried a lot and used half a bowl of old ancient dragon to comfort them.

When Liu Chuan came back yesterday, Su Xiaohui told him about this matter. Liu Chuan also suspected Mao'er at first, and Liu Xia swore to be a witness for Mao'er again, so Liu Chuan also gave Liu Hai the final suspect.

The more Liu Hai shouted for grievances, the more everyone felt that he was pretending, and finally Liu Hai shut up resignedly.

Unexpectedly, if a thief doesn't recruit himself for three years, Mao'er said that he slipped his mouth today.

Liu Xia squinted his eyes and folded his arms and said to Mao'er: "Okay, you dare to lie to my uncle!"

Mao'er came over and hugged Liu Xia's waist and shook: "I didn't do it on purpose, I was afraid that if Grandma asked, if you admitted it, Grandma would beat you!"

Liu Ling said: "Mao'er, you know that your uncle will take the blame for you, and you still spend all your time doing nothing?"

Cat's eyes widened: "No, I don't spend all day trying to find power, I'm good every day, if you don't believe me, you can ask my uncle."

Liu Ling carried him over to sit on the rock beside her, and Liu Xia followed him behind to defend Mao'er: "Mao'er is a little irritating this time, but she is usually good."

Liu Hai yelled and said: "Big brother, third brother, and fourth brother, listen up, Mao'er has admitted it himself, and our youngest son is still lying here with his eyes wide open, Yaoer, our mother has said it all, The cat can't fart all day long, and you alone can't see it, you have lost your mind, baby boy."

The cat splashed the water to splash the willow sea: "You just lost your mind, you can't even draw a fat turtle, what a brilliant student, huh!"

A large group of people stayed in the river until almost five o'clock, and Yunzhi and Yuzhi came out with their husbands and children.

Yunzhi came with her husband Chang Zhijie, son Chang Shuai, and daughter Chang Jing; Yuzhi came with her husband Wang Erfeng and eldest son Wang Junhao. The youngest son Junfei is less than two years old. I caught up with chickenpox, so I didn't bring it with me.

When the two girls returned home, the atmosphere of the family's wedding became stronger. That night, Sun Chang'e talked with Yunzhi and Yuzhi until midnight.

Liu Kui and Liu Chuan accompanied Chang Zhijie and Wang Erfeng to drink some wine, and it was midnight.

Liu Yu, Liu Ling, and Liu Hai were originally there too, because Chang Zhijie said in the middle, "Brother, there are also Xiao Yu, Xiao Ling, and Xiao Hai, as long as you need me in the future, just say it, and I won't say anything." Say, absolutely no discount, let’s do it.” Liu Yu threw the chopsticks and got up and left the table, then Liu Ling and Liu Hai also found an excuse to leave with Liu Yu, and went back to the main room to talk with Yunzhi and Yuzhi.

Liu Xia and Mao'er were not at the wine table. He couldn't forget that Chang Zhijie hid the milk powder from the cat to drink. He couldn't pretend to smile to him, but Liu Xia has always been very close to the two sisters from the bottom of his heart. , when Yunzhi and Yuzhi were at home, they were very, very kind to him.

Yunzhi and Yuzhi have always wanted to get closer to Mao'er, but Mao'er has been sitting next to Liu Xia and refused to let them touch her. After hugging, Mao'er replied by pulling Liu Xia to move further to the corner of the kang.

Regarding the treatment of cats, Liu Xia has no idea about the two elder sisters. They are far away. It happened more than once every eight days.

It was okay when I had no children, but when I had children, leaving them to my mother-in-law to live in my mother's house, Liu Xia could understand their situation when he thought about the feeling of scratching his heart and lungs when he thought about cats.

In the mid-afternoon of the 31st, Liu Kui and Liu Chuan went to invite the third grandpa and several other elders of the head of the Liu family to Liu Changchun's house, and set up two tables of banquets.

The dishes were cooked together by Liu Chuan, Liu Ling, Xiumei, and Su Xiaohui. There are six hot dishes and six cold dishes. It can be said that it is a very simple banquet outside, but it is unprecedented luxury in Liujialing.

Liu Xia's move to buy a few more catties of peanuts now seems quite far-sighted, and the few children who followed from the main branch ate more than half of the five catties of peanuts.

Seeing the excitement here, she finally couldn't help running over, and Chang'e Sun called Liu Mudan, who was hiding at the slope, to come over. She folded a cone out of newspaper and filled her with fried peanuts.

Liu Mudan is 14 years old. She left two grades in school and graduated from Liujialing Primary School last year. Now she stays at home every day and occasionally goes to work with Liu Fulai.

Liu Mudan has changed a lot when she grew up. Although she didn't become a beauty, she now looks more like Liu Fulai, much prettier than Niu Sanni, and also half a head taller than Niu Sanni. But she has a very big defect that has not been changed, that is, bowed legs.

Liu Miao looks like a big brother now. He went to Rongze to buy floral cloth, and asked Xiumei to make clothes for Liu Mudan when he came back. Now Liu Mudan looks cleaner and more decent than many girls of the same age in Liujialing.

The four of Liu Fulai and his son have been helping at Liu Changchun's house for the past two days. Liu Miao was a little embarrassed to see Liu Mudan coming over. After Sun Chang'e packed peanuts for Liu Mudan, he immediately came over and took Liu Mudan to let her go home. .

Liu Mudan is really a little careless, no one knows when she will say something shameless, everything else is easy to say, in case she said something excessive about Maoer on such a festive day The son is not happy, because of Liu Xia's temper, Liu Miao is really afraid that he will go to their house again and smash it.

Liu Ling took a few photos of the third grandpa alone, and took a lot of photos of the other grandpas. After taking the photos, she began to eat.

The third grandpa is nearly ninety years old. The old man is a little deaf and has a little cataract, but he is still optimistic and talkative. He patted Liu Changqing's hand and said to Liu Kui and his brothers: "At the beginning, your Boli master said that this child Changqing , no matter when or where you go, you will never be worse than others.

Upright and trustworthy, emphasizing love and righteousness, intelligent and diligent, hard-working, not ambitious, not eager for quick success, such a person, recruits rare people wherever he goes, and can meet close friends, such a person, he will never stay poor Stay trapped for the rest of your life, God will not make someone like your uncle be a servant for the rest of your life.

In my whole life, I have made two discerning decisions, one time I ran out from Liujialing to Kaesong by myself;

Once I took your uncle out. This is God's care for me, so that I can rely on food and clothing for the rest of my life. You are all very promising now, but following your uncle, you still have something to learn . "

He patted Liu Changchun again and said, "You are also a blessed person, you have a brother like Changqing." He turned his head and pointed to Liu Mao and Liu Yu who were sitting at another table with Liu Changan and Liu Chengbin and said : "You two children are also lucky, children, you must know how to cherish blessings."

Liu Changchun said: "I know it, and they know it too. In the next life, I will be like a cow or a horse to repay my brother."

The third grandfather shook his head: "My child, no one knows what will happen in the next life. We can meet each other in this life, become a family, and become brothers. That is the fate that has been cultivated for many lifetimes. In this life, we will take good care of each other." bingo."

Before the third grandfather left, he said to Liu Changqing: "Help me to the house to worship the Bodhisattva. I am old, so I will leave as soon as I say it. Make a wish with the Bodhisattva, and bless me in the next life to be a family with your children." .”

Liu Changqing helped the old man into the main room. The old man clasped his hands respectfully to the Bodhisattva, closed his eyes, and opened them after a long time: "Let's go, my wish has finally come true, and I feel at ease when I leave."

Liu Changqing said: "Master, don't say that, I'm still waiting for you to be a hundred years old."

After seeing off the third grandpa and the others, Liu Kui and Liu Yu should also set off. Besides the three brothers, there is also Liu Changxing, who represents the elders, in the welcoming team.

This time, Liu Chuan specially borrowed a ten-seater van from another unit. Sun Yufang's family had also agreed that the team of seeing off the relatives should not exceed five people, so that Liu Chuan could bring everyone back with one car.

Before leaving, Liu Yu suddenly put on a suit and ran into the main room. Liu Ling, Liu Xia, Liu Hai and the others didn't know what was going on, but they all ran in after him, and saw Liu Yu kneeling upright on the kang , kowtowed three times to the Bodhisattva, put his hands together and looked at the Bodhisattva for a long time, then jumped off the kang, and came to Liu Changqing and his wife and Liu Changchun in the yard: "I'm leaving, uncle, mother, I will definitely marry a good wife Come back and be filial to you, don't worry."

Liu Yu's figure is very similar to Liu Chuan's. Compared with Liu Chuan's tailor-made suit, he fits him very well. Wearing a suit, Liu Yu, who has a dignified attitude at the moment, looks a lot more mature, but he is like this. He and his brother felt so relieved, but they felt a little melancholy for no reason.

When I was young, I always hoped that the children would grow up quickly. Now that they have really grown up and are about to start a family, they feel lost. They feel that it is more at ease to raise them as children in front of them.

Liu Yu said to Liu Ling and the others: "Xiao Ling, Xiao Hai, Yao'er, please bless me."

Liu Ling took a step forward and hugged Liu Yu tightly: "Fourth brother, you will be happy."

Liu Xia and Liu Hai came over and hugged them: "Fourth brother, you will be happy, you will be."
