his dragon [farming]

On the day Shen Baocheng was discharged from the hospital, Shi Laoliu happened to be driving to the county seat. When he learned that they were going back to Liangshi Town, he hurriedly let Old Shen take a ride in his car and helped put the bedding and luggage into the truck.The group separated near the hospital, and Shen Lin and Qiu He went to the bus station to go home by car.

When the mother and son returned to Liangshi Town, they saw seven or eight old men and women gathered in front of the supermarket on the bridge, and someone waved their hands and called pomegranate from afar.When they approached, a group of people surrounded Shen Lin with chatter.

A mother-in-law held Shen Lin's hand tightly and said, "My God, I'm too old to crawl, and the pomegranate is still the same!"

Another old man said: "Pomegranate, go home to eat tonight! Your third lady heard that you are going back, so she soaked the bacon at noon!"

Shen Lin's eyes were moistened when she saw old people and old things.She greeted the old people one by one, chatted affectionately for a while, and waited until the crowd gradually dispersed before continuing to walk back with Qiuhe.

Qiu He joked as she walked, and said, "Sister Shiliu, I didn't expect you to be so popular in the town!"

Shen Lin slapped her son on the head and said, "Shut up, old lady! Sister Pomegranate, you called me?"

"Oh, you're so fierce once you're in your own territory!" Qiu He complained, "Boss Shen, you won't be able to get married like this!"

Boss Shen rushed forward to continue cutting, but Qiu He hurriedly ran away with his head in his arms, and ran away first.Shen Lin shouted from behind: "Even if you are married, I will count on you for the elderly in the future! You can't run away!"

The mother and son walked up the hillside, and saw two people standing under the pomegranate tree from a distance. The one on crutches was Shen Baocheng, and the tall and handsome young man beside him was Bai Chuan, who was looking forward to this side.

Seeing the two approaching, Bai Chuan was speechless, just looking at Qiu He and smiling.When he got closer, he hurriedly took the suitcase that Qiu He had carried, and then supported Shen Baocheng into the house with the suitcase in one hand.

Shen Lin and Qiu He followed behind.After walking a few steps, Shen Lin clicked his tongue, Qiu He looked back, and immediately laughed like a dog.

It turned out that Shen Lin was wearing a pair of eight centimeter high heels with pointed and thin heels.It had just rained again recently, and the soil on the sun valley flat was soft, and the heel of the shoe stepped on a pit, and it was almost impossible to get out of it.Qiuhe saw his mother struggling on the sun valley flat, suppressed a smile, stepped forward to show her courtesy: "Mom, I'll carry you!"

He carried Shen Lin to the steps of the door, put it down and said, "Sister Pomegranate, why are you gaining weight again!"

Before she finished speaking, she was slapped by Shen Lin. Shen Lin said: "You are so weak, you have the nerve to think others are fat!"

Over there, Shen Baocheng saw the series of small pits that had been stepped on, and felt uncomfortable again. He curled his lips and said, "I know I want to come back, but I still have to step on that high bump. Is it addictive? How beautiful is it?"

Shen Lin is in her forties and has a slightly fatter figure. She usually relies on high heels to improve her body proportions. After hearing the old man's sarcasm, she muttered dissatisfiedly: "I'm almost 70 years old and I don't have a leisurely mind. I want to take care of everything! Knowing what is beautiful Ugly!"

Unexpectedly, the old man heard it with sharp ears, and immediately yelled angrily: "I don't know anything, I don't know anything, you alone know a lot! Then do you know where you come from? Your grandparents are all in the cold Shi Zhen, you must never forget your roots!"

Shen Lin was also annoyed, raised her eyebrows, and said, "Why have I forgotten my roots? Did I murder and set fire to my parents or abuse my parents? I go online every now and then, so annoying!"

Before Qiu He finished speaking, he hurriedly finished drinking both of them, and first said to his mother: "What are you yelling about? What's the matter if you think the people in the town can't hear you?" Then Shen Baocheng: "Grandpa, you too, she loves you. Wear high heels, let her wear them, what's bothering you?"

Both the father and daughter felt that Qiuhe had pushed the fight and failed to uphold justice for themselves. They each showed an angry face, and after entering the house, they not only ignored each other, but even Qiuhe couldn't get along. Reasonable.

The small courtyard was cleaned by Bai Chuan long ago, and the broken tables, chairs and household items were all repaired if they could be repaired.Freshly chopped firewood was stacked neatly on the top of the house, and the firehouse was also tidied up.The dishes in the kitchen are washed and just waiting to be fried.

Now that Shen Baocheng is a wounded person, Sister Shiliu is only good at cooking porridge, so Qiu He had no choice but to roll up her sleeves and get on the stove.

Seeing that the unhappy father and daughter were not in front of him, Qiu He quietly complained to Bai Chuan under the stove, saying, "I'm so bored to death! Two people who are so big, they are addicted to quarreling! From the time we met to now, there have been three big quarrels. Sixty-nine, there are small quarrels every day, and I don't get tired of them!"

Seeing Qiu He now, Bai Chuan only felt refreshed and satisfied, completely unable to experience negative emotions.Hearing this, he looked outside and said with a smile, "It's pretty good!"

While cooking, Qiu He said angrily: "You think it's good for them to be noisy? You want them to fight, right?"

Bai Chuan laughed again, and said after a while: "I haven't seen Grandpa so happy in these years."

Qiu He was startled, and after a while, he suddenly understood what Bai Chuan meant.

Before that, he always felt that Shen Baocheng had too much prejudice against his daughter, and he was always picky about his nose and eyes, and he couldn't get used to it everywhere, but he ignored the fact that the old man was in a good mood recently.After suffering such a serious injury, when he came out of the hospital, his complexion was better than before.It is true that the old face is dark when they quarrel, but when there is no quarrel, every crease on the old face is full of joy and relaxation.

Isn't it all because his own daughter is back?

He quarreled with her, probably because of ten years of grievances and longing, right?Every year I hope that she will not come back, and I have a stomach full of grievances. If I don't have a few quarrels to vent my anger, how can I live in peace?It's been a while since I was born, and every time I started arguing, I was persuaded and stopped by others, presumably the two of them were also very unhappy.

Qiuhe was ashamed for a while, but he was still troubled by it. From now on, let them quarrel!Just don't fight!

At night, Shen Lin went out to the toilet.In the small courtyard of the farm, the toilets are all outside the courtyard, which is a bit inconvenient, so she couldn't help muttering a few more words.Unfortunately, this was heard by the old man again, and he was more excited than he himself was when he was disgusted. He angrily accused Shen Lin of being coquettish, only a few days in the city, and she was picky everywhere and could not understand the countryside.The two were arguing loudly and softly in the yard, and Qiuhe was just outside the house, and this time he had learned his lesson, so he dragged Bai Chuan into the next room.

Bai Chuan asked with a smile: "Why didn't you persuade the fight?"

Qiu He curled her lips and said, "Why are we outsiders getting involved in the matter of his father and daughter?"

The two spent a while in Baichuan's house before Qiuhe returned home.When she entered the room, she found that Shen Lin had already waited for her father to fall asleep, and she was sitting on the bed and reading a book.

Qiu He was completely relieved.Seeing the situation, no one tried to persuade them to fight, and the two of them didn't cause any chaos at home.He leaned over and asked, "What are you looking at?"

Shen Lin smiled, held up the book and said, "In that box just now, I found a few textbooks from my middle school years." As she spoke, she turned to the cover, and showed Qiuhe the three small characters "Shen Pomegranate" in the lower right corner .

Qiu Herao said with interest: "So your name is really Pomegranate! The name sounds nice, why did you change it? Why don't I know when it was changed?"

Shen Lin took the book and knocked on Qiuhe, and said, "None of your business!" Pointing to her hair, she said, "I looked in the mirror this morning and found a white hair here, come and call me!"

So Qiuhe knelt down on the bed, looking for the white hair in his mother's black hair with the light on.Shen Lin lowered her eyes, enjoying the intimacy between mother and child. After a while, she said, "I'm leaving early tomorrow morning. It's impossible not to go back. The provincial capital calls every day to remind me."

Qiu He was stunned, and was very reluctant for her to leave for a moment, but she also knew that Shen Lin's company was related to the livelihood of the family, so she couldn't be careless, so she said, "Go, I'm here. ... Don't move, find me. gone."

He pulled off the white hair and showed it to Shen Lin. Shen Lin held it in her hand and looked at it, then ordered her son: "Look for it again and see if there is any."

Qiu He rummaged through her head, and heard Shen Lin say again: "I've been thinking about whether I should really sell the company in the provincial capital. Grandpa is getting old, and you are in poor health. Let you go." I'm really worried here, so I might as well just come back. Next year I'll let you go to the county No. [-] middle school to study high school, and I'll find something to do in the county town, and it's convenient to go back to the town, what do you think?"

Qiu He felt a little sad when he heard that.He knew that Shen Lin went to the provincial capital very early, and worked hard for half her life, where she saved all her contacts.Turning back to the county suddenly means dropping everything and starting from scratch.For a woman in her 40s with little to rely on, this is simply a catastrophe in her life. ——It is good to be able to get through it, but if you can’t get through it, you will die on this threshold.

He persuaded her: "You just work hard in the provincial capital. Why come back? I haven't had any illnesses since I came here. After a while, maybe I'll be fine. Grandpa can leave it to me to take care of him. What about Bai Chuan, don't worry about it!"

Shen Lin blew off the white hair in her hand, rubbed Qiuhe's cheek twice with her backhand, and said, "Bai Chuan is certainly a good person, but how can you rely on outsiders for everything? Even if you are in good health, don't you still want to go out to study then? "

Qiuhe felt melancholy for a while.Only then did he remember that one day he would leave Liangshi Town as well.Thinking about it carefully, the first night of coming here is still vivid in my mind, it seems to be what happened last night, but why does it feel so uncomfortable just thinking about leaving?

Shen Lin brushed her hair together, lay down on the bed, and said, "Forget it, let's not talk about this today, anyway, it's not a day or two to sell the company. Go to bed early."

The two lay side by side in the tent. After a moment of silence, Qiu He asked again: "Mom, what happened to you and grandpa? Why did you quarrel so much in the early years?"

Shen Lin just revisited her old place, and thought that she had to leave tomorrow. She was very tender and tender in her heart, and she was willing to recall some unpleasant memories with her son. After thinking for a while, she said: "It's a long story. After I graduated from junior high school, I went to work in the provincial capital. At that time, I was young, had no education, and couldn’t find any good jobs. At first, I worked as a nanny for someone, and I was a little angry. I felt that the employer looked down on me, so I came out.”

"Have you ever been a babysitter?" Qiu He was very surprised.

In the past, Shen Lin also talked to him about her work experience, but she mostly bragged about how she managed to get rid of the bosses and opened several branches, and how she came up with clever ideas to win the market and so on.It was unheard of for Qiuhe to be a nanny for someone.

"Yes, there was an old man in that family who was paralyzed on the bed, eating, drinking, and asking for help, so he let me go, but he watched closely like a thief. I couldn't bear the anger, so I came out, and then went to I went to the restaurant to sell drinks to people, and I did a good job. As a result, the people who went with me went back to the town and taught your grandpa how to say that I was a hostess outside, which made the old man very angry."

Qiu He has stayed in the town for a while, knowing that people in Liangshi Town value reputation the most, and Shen Baocheng is very concerned about face, so he doesn't need to guess to imagine how messed up it was.He turned over, looked at Shen Lin and said, "Why didn't you explain it to him at that time?"

"Isn't that the period of rebellion? He asked someone to bring me a letter and asked me to go home, but I didn't want to do what he wanted! The old man wanted to find me, but he couldn't do without these few acres of mountains, so he dragged on for a while. Isn't this getting on good terms with your dad again? I came back and told the old man that I wanted to get married, but he refused to agree to it."

"Why?" Qiu He sat up, "Because Dad is too old?"

Shen Lin seemed a little hesitant, but finally told the truth: "When your father met me, he wasn't divorced yet."

Qiu He was taken aback again, and said in disbelief, "You are, are you a third party?"

Shen Lin didn't bother to argue, and smiled and said: "I don't get involved, and his relationship with his ex-wife has always been bad. But later your father wanted to divorce, and it was indeed because of me. The old man here disagreed. I don't care. I went to pull the marriage certificate by myself, and he became more and more angry. He said that I seduced wild men for money outside, and I didn't even want my face. In a fit of anger, I quarreled with him and never came back gone."

Although Shen Lin only mentioned it in a few words, Qiu He could guess how intense the quarrel between the father and daughter was that day.There is nothing good to say about each other, and it is estimated that all the bad things are said, which will lead to the father and daughter's hatred for many years.He lay down beside Shen Lin, wrapped his fingers around a lock of Shen Lin's long hair, and said softly: "Mom, I know that grandpa wronged you, so you won't seduce men for money."

Shen Lin looked at her obedient and caring son, smiled gratifiedly, and jokingly said, "Yo, you just knew it? You didn't even have a shadow at that time."

"I just know," Qiu He said sullenly, "You're not that kind of person."

Shen Lin sighed, and said: "It's hard to say, if your father is a poor man, maybe I really don't like it. I think your mother was also a flower in a hotel back then, okay? It's just that it was really hard and lonely to be alone in the city at that time. Your father, although he is old, knows how to love others, and is willing to spend money to please me, don't I think I have found something to rely on? As a result, fart! Facts have proved that the only person I can rely on is myself. "

Qiu He quit, and said coquettishly, "Obviously there is me! Am I still unreliable?"

Shen Lin laughed, couldn't help kissing Qiuhe on the forehead, and said, "Yes, yes, don't you still have my son? I will rely on you for the rest of my life."

"Well," Qiu He nodded solemnly, "When I have money, I will buy you a big house and a good car!"

"it is good!"

"Wait until Paris Fashion Week, let you go abroad to shop, want to buy bags, buy bags, want to buy shoes!"

"That won't work, your mother doesn't understand French!"

"Stupid! Why don't you just hire a translator?"

"That deserves it!"

……

Then the two of them stopped talking and lay down in silence for a while.Shen Lin has been working hard day and night recently, and she fell asleep after a long time.Qiuhe couldn't sleep.He turned over and looked at Shen Lin's face carefully, and found that there were fine lines between the familiar eyebrows and eyes.

At that moment, he really hoped that he would be able to support his family and stand upright immediately, so that he could give the woman around him a solid support.What the world owed her in the past will be doubled by him.

He sighed for a long time, thinking to himself, it would be great if that day could come sooner.
