Chapter 57 The Cat and the Diary

How much do you know about the stories of the older generation?

Wen Qiyue Elementary School was sent to grandpa by his parents. Grandpa lived alone in a huge courtyard. He raised a few birds and made fun of them playing chess and singing.Wen Qiyue has no idea, where did grandma go?In the Wen family, including parents, the number of times grandma was mentioned can be counted on one's fingers. After growing up, the grandparents of the neighbor's family went in and out, and they lived together for the elderly. She asked grandpa, where is my grandma?

After listening to her question, grandpa changed the subject by blowing his beard and staring, "Isn't it enough for you to have grandpa?"

The adults prevaricate the children, Wen Qiyue is too lazy to ask, whether or not having a grandma has little impact on her life.

Fu Yining has even less impression of her grandparents. Her grandparents are from the countryside. They have land at home. They have worked hard all their lives in farming. They have two sons and a daughter. Her father is the eldest. He retired from the army due to an injury and had a falling out with his family. No one contacted anyone. .

Since the relatives were ruthless and abandoned her frustrated father, she kept her mouth shut and avoided Ni Lin, who disappointed her parents. Later, she moved into Wen's house. She regarded Grandpa Wen as her own grandfather. Let's take care of Grandpa Wen together.

Grandpa Wen's glorious deeds, in his own words, are enough to write a book.He was born in a military family with roots in Zhengmiaohong. He was influenced by his family since he was a child and determined to serve as a soldier to defend his family and the country. However, when he was young, he lacked the toughness of a man. He was bullied when he joined the army. Seeing that he likes to sing, he took his own initiative and sent him to the art troupe.

After entering the art troupe, Grandpa Wen started at the grassroots level, step by step, and by virtue of his talent and hard work, he won a role that has attracted much attention under the spotlight. He has acted in dramas and is proficient in vocal music. After his honorable retirement, Wen Qiyue said after his death that many comrades from the art troupe from other places traveled thousands of miles to mourn him, some even sat in a wheelchair, relying on the support of their family members, and they wanted to see Grandpa Wen again.

Through those elderly strangers, Wen Qiyue realized that grandpa was great in the ordinary. He must have done many things and helped many people, so he was loved and admired by others. His life was more than just a few words that he had heard on the surface.

But the day Wen Qiyue wanted to know about Grandpa Wen came too late.

She was full of doubts like a small stone thrown out, splashing a little wave, sinking into the sea and disappearing.

...

In mid-January, it snowed frequently in Yoshigu. Accompanied by Fu Yining, Wen Qiyue walked through the thick snow and opened the door of grandpa's room.

Fu Yining has heard Wen Qiyue tell the truth about Grandpa Wen changing the keys these days. The two 28-year-old women hugged each other silently for a long time. Her tears fell on Wen Qiyue's shoulders, and Wen Qiyue did the same , The pain of losing Grandpa Wen is branded in my heart, the brand has just scabbed over, burning my body with tingling pain, I want to forget it.

She had cried enough, and proposed to find someone to clean Grandpa Wen's room, and Wen Qiyue readily agreed.

This is the first time she entered Grandpa Wen's room as Wen Qiyue's girlfriend.The old man likes weird wood, tables and chairs, sofas, coffee tables, beds, and the furnishings in the house are all selected by Grandpa Wen and commissioned to customize. Fu Yining quietly took half a step back and took a deep breath to adjust the sore eyelids. She remembered it clearly. She was fat when she was a child. Grandpa Wen was thin, so he sat at the wooden table in front of him and hugged her, stuffing sweet milk candy into her hands.

Wen Qiyue lowered her head subconsciously, she missed her grandfather so much, and felt guilty that her young and frivolous ignorance made her grandfather angry.

"Qiyue..." Fu Yining held Wen Qiyue's hand, Wen Qiyue turned her head blankly, her eyes flushed imperceptibly.

"Shall we clean up for grandpa?" Fu Yining squeezed Wen Qiyue's palm tightly, smiling sweetly.

"...Ningning, one day I will become an old lady." Wen Qiyue's eyes waved softly, "It is better to live longer than grandpa, when I see him, let him laugh at the wrinkles on my face Why are there so many?"

"It's not good...it's ugly..." She could think of the old man's loving eyes and contemptuous disdain in his mouth.

Try to treat them kindly to make them age slower than ordinary people. A few nights ago, Fu Yining Skincare told Wen Qiyue that there were small fine lines in the corners of her eyes. Wen Qiyue immediately ran over and said comfortingly: "You love to laugh, Laughter lines are not subtle."

Fu Yining looked at Wen Qiyue in turn, muttering that there were no smile lines in the corners of Wen Qiyue's eyes, Wen Qiyue hugged her to her chest, muttered, "There will be soon."

"I rarely smile abroad."

A young woman with a good time, too lazy to smile into a superfluous charity.A sour feeling stuck in Fu Yining's throat, she raised her head to meet Wen Qiyue's lowered gaze, the two of them smiled at the same time, she first said: "Wen Qiyue, be careful, you will have a lot of laugh lines!"

She is willing to give everything in exchange for Wen Qiyue's more and more smiles.

Wen Qiyue rubbed the end of Ning Ning's eyes with her fingertips, then went to the lying silkworm and snickered, "Ning Ning, don't forget that you are two months older than me."

Fu Yining didn't think so, "So?"

"You are two months older than me." Wen Qiyue said awkwardly.

Sure enough, Fu Yining got angry and slapped her hand off, but it didn't stop Wen Qiyue from holding her face, lowering her head and kissing the center of her eyebrows.

"It's only been two months. I stayed up late, and I'm getting old quickly." The man justified himself, and changed his rhetoric to please Fu Yining.

If you are less than 30 years old, it is too early to talk about aging.Fu Yining remembered that Wen Qiyue didn't need a mask, and her skin care products were basic, as if she wasn't afraid of aging at all. She argued with Wen Qiyue and changed the conversation to other topics.

...

Why is her lover not afraid of aging?

The answer was right in front of Fu Yining's eyes.

Whether there is another world after death, Fu Yining has no answer.She believed that Grandpa Wen left them and went to another place far away to live a chic life, aging...death...Wen Qiyue longed to see Grandpa Wen, although she was young, her heart and soul were calm, ready and ready After calmly accepting for decades, when you are old and cannot walk, your face is wrinkled, or you lie in a hospital bed and fight against a serious illness one day.

Only when she gets old, Wen Qiyue relieves the longing that cannot be vented in her heart.

..

"Ning Ning...don't cry." Wen Qiyue saw Fu Yining crying, and immediately panicked.

"Wen Qiyue!" Fu Yining lost her composure, with tears in her eyes, and wiped away the tears with the back of her hand. She tweeted that Qiyue was close to her shoulder, but she didn't use much effort, and said aggrievedly: "You are not allowed to grow old first!"

Ning Ning can say anything, Wen Qiyue nodded indiscriminately and agreed, Fu Yining couldn't stop crying, and apologized to Grandpa Wen in his heart, and let him see his crybaby side.

Whoever gets old or gets sick first goes to the place where Grandpa Wen is. To be honest, Fu Yining knows that it is uncontrollable.

Wen Qiyue walked anxiously over to hug her, coax her, and give her a shoulder to lean on.What she thought was that since she was two months older than Wen Qiyue, she could leave two weeks earlier, two days, or two hours earlier.She met Grandpa Wen first, and told Grandpa Wen about Wen Qiyue's consistent laziness in the next few decades.

Then she would like to thank Grandpa Wen.

Thank him for cultivating Wen Qiyue's integrity, kindness, and down-to-earth.

Wen Qiyue can't give Fu Yining a life where money is like dirt. They live like countless ordinary couples, washing and cooking, kissing and hugging, turning on their mobile phones to pay utilities every month, and researching whether the bills are too much or too little. Wen Qiyue Qiyue doesn't know how to play fancy romance, and occasionally acts like a naughty child, saying that she is down-to-earth and fragile, and needs Fu Yining to take care of her.

These are different from the Princess Charming in Fu Yining's adolescent fantasy.

Wen Qiyue didn't step on a white horse, she was a lazy cat in essence, and gave Fu Yining a love that others envied.

This credit is inseparable from Grandpa Wen.

...

After coaxing Ningning well, the two women leaned together and whispered, and said some heartwarming things about looking forward.Wen Qiyue took off her coat to clean up. She was in charge of the grandfather's bedroom, and Ning Ning was in charge of the outside of the bedroom.

After Grandpa died, Dad came to tidy up the room. The layout has not changed. The books she used to read, the pens and paper for writing are all placed on the bedside. Shu Xin, feeling lazy for a while, put down the rag and sat beside Grandpa's bed to blow the air.

What was grandpa's life like?

Several times, she tried to find an answer that she couldn't get.

She thought about asking her father, and was more worried that her father would feel uncomfortable when he mentioned it.Besides Dad, who else knows about Grandpa's youthful past?The comrades-in-arms of the grandfather's art troupe are basically not in Sigu, and Wen Qiyue is not familiar with them, so he is embarrassed to speak.

Will grandma know?Wen Qiyue remembered the character of grandma, she got up quickly, and searched the drawers of her grandfather's bedroom. When she was a child, she saw that grandpa had a phone book, which recorded the names of people who were often in contact, and called them one by one according to the phone number. There is a solution.

Fu Yining was outside, guessing that Wen Qiyue was lazy, she went over to take a look.

She was frightened, "What are you doing?" Wen Qiyue buried her head in rummaging through boxes and cabinets, her movements were very anxious, and those who didn't know it thought that Wen's house had been burglarized.

"Will you help me find something?" Wen Qiyue turned his head here and there, his fingers covered with the dust of the furniture.

Fu Yining came in in response, "What are you looking for?"

"A book." Wen Qiyue's impression was vague, she frowned and described awkwardly, "It's made of cowhide, it's about this thick." She stretched out her finger to measure the thickness of Grandpa's phone book.

"What are you looking for?" Fu Yining said, taking out a tissue with clean pockets to help Wen Qiyue wipe her hands.

Wen Qiyue described her thoughts, no matter what the reason, grandma left Wen's house, if she was still alive, she and grandpa fell in love, and she would be able to understand grandpa's deeds in the art troupe when he was young.

There were several drawers in the old man's room. The two of them worked together and searched carefully but found nothing. Wen Qiyue didn't wait to get discouraged. Fu Yining turned her attention to the wardrobe. She asked, "Have you looked for it?"

"There's nothing inside." The clothes must not be left behind, they must have been packed and taken away by Dad, Wen Qiyue thought.

Fu Yining didn't believe it, and opened the two doors of the closet with both hands. The first drawer was indeed useless, and it was the turn of the second and third drawers, one of which had a keyhole, and it didn't move when he pulled it hard. Wen Qiyue approached, and a Face surprised: "Locked?!"

After all, she took out a large bunch of keys from the house. Fortunately, each key was labeled. Wen Qiyue didn't spend much time locking a few keys with the words "Drawer" written on them to unlock them.

Mr. Wen was upright all his life, and the secret they didn't know might be in the locked drawer. Fu Yining was nervous, and he didn't forget to comfort Wen Qiyue who was sweating on his forehead, don't worry, take your time.She thought carefully, would Dad understand Grandpa Wen?The Fu family moved here, and Fu's father was also a soldier. He worshiped veterans similarly to Yang Zheng now. In the past, the two men had nothing to meet and talked about life in the army that Fu Yining could not understand.

A few minutes later, Wen Qiyue held the last key and inserted it into the lock. Her heart rose to her throat, and she writhed in one breath. She successfully heard the sound of the lock being unlocked, and Fu Yining quickly regained her senses.

A cowhide book came into the eyes of Ning Yue and the two of them.

Wen Qiyue took it in her hand and patted the dust and turned it over. The book is very thick, and there are only a few pages in which the phone number is actually recorded. What she saw when she was a child was one or two pages, and the following dozens of pages were densely packed with content. It is a diary written by my grandfather.

In the upper right corner of each page, grandpa records the time with a red pen. The opening date of the diary has passed 30 years ago. That is to say, the book in Wen Qiyue’s hand is the middle-aged life essays of grandpa. The form of the diary is comparable to a running account. What did you eat and do every day, who did you meet?There are also some emotions about the past and future life, other than that, Ning Yue and the other are not curious about grandma.

Wen Qiyue's expression was somewhat discouraged, and Fu Yining persuaded softly from the side: "I'll study with you before going to bed tonight, and we'll read it."

"Forget it." Wen Qiyue closed the notebook, twitched her lips and laughed at herself: "I didn't ask if Grandpa is alive, but I think about it when he's gone."

In vain... the warmth of the palm of the hand pulled away from the body, and the book was held in his hand, as heavy as a thousand pieces of gold. Wen Qiyue spit out each word, his eyes dimmed and he lost confidence: "I don't join the army, and no soldier's children love the country and serve the people. His good character is not worthy of Grandpa Curious's youthful achievements."

Fu Yining grabbed the notebook and hugged it in front of her chest, wrinkled her small nose, and said dissatisfiedly, "Wen Qiyue, what are you talking about to be discouraged?"

"Ningning, what I'm telling is the truth." Wen Qiyue put his hands into his pockets, and said with a wry smile.

Come when you want, leave when you say, she lives...selfish.

"Nonsense! What facts?" Fu Yining pinched her arm, Wen Qiyue hissed, and pursed her stubborn lips silently.

"Who is not worthy of you? You are the only granddaughter of Grandpa Wen and the only daughter of Uncle Wen and Aunt Wen. Do they need you to join the army?" Fu Yining replied for Wen Qiyue: "No! You see, they gave you freedom. Respecting every step you take, isn't that enough to explain?"

Fu Yining was deeply envious of the Wen family's way of loving literature and praying for the moon.

The elders, watching their children grow up, know better than anyone that Wen Qiyue is not suitable for joining the army.Not only that, but Grandpa Wen was used to Wen Qiyue being lazy. He planted a seed in a different soil with his own hands, hoping to bloom another kind of brilliant flowers.

Wen Qiyue is far from being patriotic and serving the people. She is simple and kind enough. She can tell the difference between good and bad human nature, and she knows how to take a step back when necessary to protect herself.

The four words of self-improvement are not suitable for her, but she gave up and got up to find herself again.

Wen Qiyue arranged for Fu Yining to sit down in a muffled voice, while she lay on Ning Ning's lap, looked up with a pair of bright eyes full of confusion, and said to herself, "Ning Ning, I failed to be the pride of Grandpa."

"Qiyue...isn't important." Fu Yining stroked Wen Qiyue's short hair, and said gently: "You learn to survive and grow up safely. I believe that grandpa has already got what he wants."

Fu Yining has the most say in Lazy Cat's 15-year changes. In a certain sense, like Grandpa Wen, she is humble in front of Wen Qiyue.

Once she ran desperately to chase Wen Qiyue, who was content with the status quo in her infancy. Her worries were no less than that of Grandpa Wen. Is Qiyue full?Ready to drink?Are you happy?why are you mad?Wait, Wen Qiyue's world is contained in a bowl. Grandpa Wen and Fu Yining are holding the bowl, fearing that the water in the bowl will be spilled with every word and deed.

Fu Yining University only thinks about herself, because Wen Qiyue does not have the so-called employment difficulties.It's not easy to hear, Wen Qiyue opened his mouth, and Grandpa Wen spread his contacts and tried his best to help her get any position she wanted.

Is this kind of doting good for Wen Qiyue? 20-year-old Wen Qiyue is suitable but not suitable for 20-year-old Fu Yining.In the year she focused on thinking, it happened that she happened to appear around the straw that crushed Wen Qiyue. She chose Shao Sizhao out of her desire for a better future, and Grandpa Wen was seriously ill and hospitalized immediately.

The bowl was broken, Wen Qiyue grew up, and Fu Yining was pleasantly surprised by the earth-shaking changes when he returned to China.

Wen Qiyue lay in front of Fu Yining's knees, her emotions were soothed, and she believed what Ning Ning said.

Why live smart?she said to herself.

Be silly, be persistent, aim at one thing without hitting the south wall and not looking back.

..Is it not good?

"Do you really want to read Grandpa's diary tonight?" Wen Qiyue laughed lazily.

"Hmm." Fu Yining quietly heaved a sigh of relief as his lover returned to his usual state.

Seeing Ning Ning smiling, Wen Qiyue had to be cheap and said, "Can I do it during the day?"

?Fu Yining was at a loss, "I'll go to work in the store later, don't you still have something to ask Luan Yihe?"

The short-haired woman stood up mysteriously, bent down and said a few words in Fu Yining's ear. After hearing this, Fu Yining was so ashamed, her ears were hot, and she couldn't bear it: "Wen Qiyue, we are in grandpa's room!"

The words are neither light nor heavy... She held her forehead.

"What are you afraid of? Grandpa knows that I won't let you get pregnant." Wen Qiyue's face was full of calm and fearlessness, and Fu Yining pinched and pinched her angrily.

Ning Yue and the two who were chasing after each other didn't realize at this time that if they unlocked an old story, the secret hidden in Grandpa Wen's diary would bring about an earth-shaking turning point in the following life.

Thirty years ago, the owner of the Wen Family Courtyard was Gao, not Wen.
