Good mountains, good water, good people

Chapter 52 This is his home

Qin You also knew that his grandfather would often write letters to his grandmother while sitting under the lamp while wearing presbyopic glasses. The letters were stored in the box next to the bed. Something for his grandma.It was the love between his grandfather and grandmother for so many years that made him believe that there is such a thing as love in this world, and made him take the matter of feelings seriously, even with a hint of piety.

As soon as he thought of the word "love", a certain young man's smiling face flashed in his mind, which made him pause in washing the dishes before continuing.

Wash the clean bowls one by one, wipe the water with a dry cloth, and put them upside down in the bowl basket. When the bowls are full, they will be put into the disinfection cabinet for disinfection. The work is usually left to the nanny.

"Hey, why did you buy me American ginseng again? There are still several boxes of American ginseng you brought last time in the cabinet." After the grandson went to wash the dishes, the old man took the time to look at the things his grandson bought for him. He opened the bag and touched it, and took out a large box of American ginseng. There were still several boxes in the cabinet that were not finished.

Just as Qin You came out of the kitchen, he heard what his grandfather said, and looked in the direction his grandfather pointed, and saw all kinds of skin care products he bought in the cabinet, including four or five boxes of American ginseng , he couldn't help laughing, and asked, "Grandpa, don't you even eat? Why are there so many?"

"How can I eat so much? Look, you bring these things every time you come, and your parents buy them for me every time they come. Do you want me to eat supplements as a meal?" Grandpa Qin glared. Glancing at his grandson, he asked, "How many days can you rest this time? When you leave, take a few boxes of American ginseng back to soak in water to drink. You always stay up late and run around in this job. You can soak more. Drinking American ginseng tea can refresh your spirits. Don’t just rely on your good health when you are young and ignore it. You have to live to my age to realize the importance of good health.”

"I can take a... two days off, I'll go back on Sunday night." Qin You thought for a while, and gave himself an extra day off.

He is working two jobs now, he and his brother have opened an office, and he still has a job at the school. If the school is not too busy, he will be busy with the office. If the school has something to do In other words, the office will do less work. Anyway, both sides are busy, and they are busy for at least 360 days out of 360 five days a day.Now he can somewhat understand his parents. It is very difficult to take care of both the family and the children when they are busy with work.

"Go back on Sunday night? Well, it's good if you can stay here for two days. You live with grandpa, I asked Xiao Liu to clean up the house you live in." Grandpa Qin said to his grandson It's unexpected to have two days off, it's not like I come and leave on the same day.

"Okay." In fact, Qin You has another place in the city, which was bought by his family so that he could study at school nearby.But since the old man wants him to live here, then he should live here.

The old man continued to look through the things his grandson bought for him, American ginseng, tea, clothes and shoes, oh, and wine! "Oh, did you bring me wine?"

As soon as he saw the wine jar, Grandpa Qin took the wine jar out with a smile on his face, opened the lid and smelled it, and the smile on his face became even bigger, "This wine is fine, where did you buy it? It smells very good Ah, let's have a drink in the evening."

"Oh, this, I went back to Yunxi Village last time, and the village head of Yunxi Village gave it to me. This is the wine they brewed themselves." When Qin You saw the wine bottle, he remembered that it was a gift from the village head last time he looked back. The things for them, he didn't come to his grandfather last time, so he left behind the car, but this time he took them down.

"I remember there is still a small bucket of tea, which is placed in a bamboo tube, and it is also the tea they picked from the tea mountain and roasted. The teacher and they all said that it is a good tea. You can see if it is there."

"Are you talking about this? This is tea? Well, it smells delicious. Let's make a pot and try it." Grandpa Qin took out a small bamboo tube, opened the lid and smelled it. The smell is okay. If it is If grandson says good tea, it must be good tea.

"Didn't you usually not accept gifts from others? Why did you bring them back?" He remembered that this grandson used to not accept gifts from others. Could it be for him to drink?

"I didn't bring them either. They put them in my car, and I didn't know how to refuse, so I had to bring them back." Qin You helped his grandfather pack the things together, leaving only the little one behind. Bucket of tea, he went to boil a pot of water, his grandfather had already put the tea into the teapot.

He didn't start making tea until the water temperature was a little lower.

The first brewing is to wash the tea, the tea must be poured out, and the second time pouring water into it is for drinking.

The water temperature of making tea is the key, especially the green tea with tender leaves, which cannot be brewed in boiling water, otherwise the taste of the brewed tea leaves will be the same as that of cooked vegetable leaves.Brewing different tea leaves requires different water temperatures, but generally the water temperature is about [-] degrees. Pour the water in and wait for the tea leaves to stretch before pouring the tea out into the cup.

"Come, grandpa, drink tea." It was rare to have a cup of tea with the old man, Qin You handed the first cup of tea poured out to his grandfather.

"The color of this tea soup looks beautiful, and it smells delicious." Grandpa Qin picked up the teacup, glanced at the tea color, took a breath, smelled very fragrant, took another sip, and couldn't help nodding Said: "Well, it's delicious! That's the taste!"

Qin You also picked up his own cup of tea and took a sip, but he still felt a little worse, probably because of the water used to make the tea?If he had known earlier, he would have brought back some mountain spring water from Village Chief Gu's house. No wonder Professor Zhang and several leaders had brought back a few cans of mountain spring water last time.

Putting down the teacup, Qin You picked up the teapot and added another cup of tea to his grandfather, and said, "If I go there again next time, I will bring you back with mountain spring water from them. Tea is better."

"Oh, there's still mountain spring water, that's good. They're called Yunxi Village, right? Where are they going?" Upon hearing that there was still mountain spring water, Grandpa Qin immediately became interested.If he has any hobbies after retirement, it is that besides listening to opera, playing chess, reading and writing, the rest is drinking tea and occasionally drinking some wine.

"Go to Xiaoliang Town..." Qin You stopped after saying a word, and asked the old man, "Grandpa, do you want to go by yourself?"

"Haha, I won't go by myself, I'll ask some old men to go with me." Grandpa Qin was very interested in the place his grandson mentioned, and the conversation between the grandson and grandson revolved around Yunxi Village.

Qin You talked about what he saw and heard in that village, from the houses and buildings in the village to the people in the village, "There are a lot of old people in their village, there are more than a dozen old people over a hundred years old, and the people there are in good health. , live a long and healthy life. Professor Zhang went back and told the old professors in the next courtyard about this matter, and they are planning to come here to investigate geology.”

"There are so many old people in their village? It seems that their water, soil and environment are good. No wonder you said that the water there is delicious for making tea. It seems that when we are free tomorrow, we will go up to fetch some water and come back to make tea." Tea is good." Grandpa Qin visited many places when he was young, but he has only heard the name of the village that his grandson mentioned, but he has never been there. If he has time, he can go there. They are not very far from here.

The old man of their family is used to taking a nap at noon. It's a bit late today, but the old man still needs to take a nap.

After the old man went to take a nap, Qin You also went to the room where he lived.

This house is the house he lived in when he was a child. It is next door to the big house where his grandfather and grandma lived. Since he was very young, he slept alone, and he lived in this room.He lived in this house until he went back to his parents' side for elementary school, but every winter and summer vacation, he still lived in this house.

The room is not very big. There is a 1.5-meter-sized bed in the room. The bed is placed on the right-hand side of the door, with two sides against the wall, one side facing the window, and a corridor in the middle.There is a small desk in front of the window, which is where he used to write and read. There is a small desk lamp on the desk, but he remembers that the small desk lamp is broken, but it has been left here and not thrown away.

Inside the desk is a small bookshelf, on which there are some books he read when he was a child, and some small toys, all of which are of relatively commemorative value.

Over the years, he has lived in many houses, including the house of his grandparents, the house of his parents, the house next to the school, and later the house he bought after earning money.But among the many houses he lived in, only this house left the deepest impression on him. The house he would dream of in his dreams is the only place where there are grandparents, parents and relatives.

The bed has already been covered with quilt sheets and quilt pillows. They are all things he has used. The sheets and quilt covers have been washed and turned white, but they are very clean and have been exposed to the sun. There is no musty smell in the room.

He knew that even if he didn't come back here often, his grandfather would still ask the nanny to help him clean the house, and the sheets and bedding in the house would be taken out to dry regularly.No matter when he comes back, this place is like his home, the rooms here can live in and the houses can sleep.

Qin You knew that it was his grandfather's love for him, probably because he felt that his parents were busy with work and neglected him, the old man here had special care for him, when the old lady was still alive, she loved him in every possible way for her grandson.This is why he is willing to come back here no matter how busy he is, because there are his relatives here, and this is his home.
