Yan Ran took the mobile phone given by her parents, called her uncle and aunt, and told her that their project won the grand prize.

His uncle and aunt were very happy for the two of them, and let Yan Ran go to his house to play.

In order to go home with Xiao Zichong, Yan Ran rejected their invitation, and went back in Teacher Hao's car that night.

When they got home, Yan Ran's family already knew that Yan Ran's project had won the award. They were very happy. Seeing Xiao Zichong and Yan Ran coming back together, they invited Xiao Zichong to go to the mountains to escape the summer heat.

Xiao Zichong was always a little uncomfortable facing Yan Ran's family, and refused: "I have other arrangements for the summer vacation, so I won't go. Thank you, uncle and lady."

Yan Ran stood at the door, staring at Xiao Zichong with bright eyes. He actually hoped that Xiao Zichong could go to the mountain house with him to escape the summer heat, but he knew that Xiao Zichong had his own plan, and he would never change his plan easily He did not say the words of the invitation.

After thinking about it, Yan Ran said, "I will call you."

Xiao Zichong waved at him and quickly went upstairs.

Xiao Zichong's parents also learned that their project had won an award. Wu Lan said, "It's pretty good."

Xiao's father said: "Where do you want to go to play? Just ask your mother to take annual leave. Let's find a place to travel in the future."

Xiao Zichong, who went to the provincial capital to watch the speeches of many outstanding students, said: "I want to take the college entrance examination next year. I don't want to travel anywhere, but I want to read at home."

Xiao's father knew his son very well, and he knew from his calm expression that although he won the special prize, Xiao Zichong was still unhappy. He said, "Even if you want to take the college entrance examination next year, it will not affect this year's exam." Go on a trip. Besides, if you don’t go on a trip, your mother and I still want to go out for a walk.”

Xiao Zichong muffled and responded.

Wu Lan said: "Okay, if you want to read at home, you can read at home. It happens that our family saves this year's travel expenses. If you can really get admitted to the school you want to go to next year, then our family will use two years of travel expenses next year. Funding, travel to the United States, is it possible?"

Xiao Zichong nodded dispensably.He is the kind of person who can only get real happiness from the results he has achieved. In addition, he has strong self-control. When he has something he wants to achieve, going out to play is very attractive to him. limited.

Xiao's father, who wanted to go out for a while during the summer vacation, had to agree with his daughter-in-law's decision.

Yan Ran's mother took her mother-in-law and son to a county around M City that is famous for summer vacations and vacations. The mountain corresponding to this county will become a famous Internet celebrity resort after many years, but now, Its scope of influence is only limited to the surrounding area.

This is the hometown of Yan Ran's grandparents, and also the hometown of Aunt Du.

Yan Ran’s family has a house here, and other family members of Aunt Du’s family are looking after it. Grandma Yan Ran often comes here to visit, while the rest of Yan’s family will only get together when they worship ancestors or sweep graves in Qingming. this house.During the summer vacation, sometimes Yan Ran's family would come here to escape the heat.

Although Yan Ran was looked down upon by his classmates at his school because of his poor grades, but when he returned to his hometown, the children in the surrounding counties looked up to Yan Ran very much, but Yan Ran felt that he had nothing to talk about with these children, and he would spend more time with them. Just stay in the house and do homework instead of going to the fields or deep in the forest to play with these children.

When the summer temperature in M ​​City was as high as 35 degrees, the highest temperature in the suburbs of the county where Yan Ran lived was only 27 degrees, and it was only a dozen degrees at night, so he had to cover himself with quilts.

The fresh air, the quiet environment, the rolling hills in the distance, and the green forests all make it easy for Yan Ran to enter the meditation state of self-understanding. He will think about his future after completing the whole day's study tasks, and sometimes I also think about the meaning of my own existence and the meaning of life. Such a profound question may be a question that everyone will think about.

It is impossible for him to get the answer, and he often ends up thinking of Xiao Zichong in the end.

A few days later, an old man her grandmother knew passed away, and the sound of the funeral was heard far away in Yan Ran's ears. The grandmother who was addicted to playing cards every day stopped playing cards. At night, Yan Ran sat on the balcony watching While looking at the starry sky, grandma brought him watermelon for him to eat, and sat beside him watching him.

Yan Ran ate the watermelon and handed it to grandma.

Grandma said: "I have a bad stomach, so I can't eat watermelon at night."

Yan Ran had no choice but to take the watermelon back, and asked grandma if she wanted to go to a good hospital in the provincial capital to see a doctor and take care of her stomach.

Grandma laughed and said, "I am a person who is going to be buried in the earth, and my stomach is like this. What can I do?"

Yan Ran felt sad, and said: "Grandma, you can live a long life, don't talk about being buried."

Grandma said: "At my age, of course I have to know death. Only by knowing death can I live a more comfortable life. If I can't accept dying at this age, it will be called uncomfortable."

Yan Ran looked at her silently, feeling even more sad.Of course he knew that people were going to die, grandma was going to die, but just thinking about it made him unable to bear it.

Grandma is 78 years old this year, and she seems to be in good spirits, but at 78 years old, even if she really died, others would say that she was happy and mourning.

Grandma knew that Yan Ran was sad, so she took the paper towel from the small tea stool, wiped the watermelon juice stained on Yan Ran's fingers, and said, "Grandma still doesn't know if I can see you get married and give birth to a little Ranran. "

Yan Ran thought to herself that grandma, you may really never see it.

Yan Ran sometimes thinks, maybe I was destined to like Xiao Zichong since I was born, this is a deep feeling.

Other children will somewhat fantasize about getting married and having children when they grow up, but Yan Ran recalled that when he was a child, he had no illusions about getting married and having children. Even if his parents and elders made fun of it, he was very ignorant of.

I will always love Xiao Zichong.

Yan Ran said this in his heart, but he couldn't tell anyone about it.

The next day, grandma asked Yan Ran to go out with her.

Yan Ran changed into sneakers, carried a schoolbag with warm water for grandma to drink, and took her towels, tissues, etc., and went out with grandma.

When he went out, he found that it wasn't him and his grandma, but Aunt Du's sister-in-law, who was about 50 years old, was very capable and had an extremely loud voice. She called Grandma Yan Ran "Mr. Gu" , the attitude is very respectful.

She also called Yan Ran "Little Master", and her attitude was very intimate.

The first time Yan Ran was called "Young Master", he was immediately embarrassed to death, but he didn't want to argue with the aunt to correct him, so he had to accept it.

The weather was fine, the sun was not too strong, and the temperature was suitable. The aunt helped Grandma Yan Ran to walk in front, and Yan Ran walked behind, and walked into the mountains together.

Yan Ran took his digital camera and took pictures of all the places he wanted Xiao Zichong to see.

After walking for about an hour, grandma was a little tired before they arrived at their destination.

When the trip was halfway through, Yan Ran knew where their destination was. After arriving at the place, Yan Ran said in her heart that she really came here.

This is the geomantic treasure land of the Yan family, which is where the ancestral tomb of Yan Ran's family is located. Yan Ran's grandfather was buried here, his grandfather's father, and his grandfather's grandfather were also buried here.

The place is backed by mountains, facing the county seat and the river flowing through the county seat, and has an excellent view.

Yan Ran gave grandma water to drink, cleaned the stone stool at the ancestral grave, and let grandma sit down.

Grandma inspected the ancestral grave for a while, satisfied, then pointed to a location and said, "From now on, when grandma dies, she will be buried there. It will be next to your grandpa."

Yan Ran looked at where grandma was pointing, and took the water bottle handed over by grandma, her hands trembling.

Grandma looked at the county town and the river below the mountain with a calm expression.

Under the instructions of her grandmother, Yan Ran kowtowed to the elders in the family, and then went down the mountain again.

On the way back, they would pass a village. There were new brick houses and old earth tile houses in the village. Most of them were only old people in the village, and children were barefoot and tanned, running in the village. However, when they saw a stranger passing by, they would wait and see from a distance.

Grandma was tired from walking, so my aunt found a house, and the three of them went in to sit and rest.

As a result, many old people came to see it.

The auntie knew many old people in the village, and after saying hello, she introduced Grandma Yan Ran as "the eldest grandma of the Yan family, Teacher Gu". Yan Ran was very embarrassed, and these old people praised "Yan's family is a scholarly family with talents".

Yan Ran wondered how could I afford it.

Grandma sat up for a while and got up to leave. Auntie helped her up, and Yan Ran quickly followed.

As they left, other people who came to watch the fun followed them, and they didn't leave until they reached the entrance of the village.

After they left the village for a while, seeing no one followed, grandma stopped, stood under a plum tree behind the village, and said to Yan Ran: "Ran Ran, come here."

Yan Ran hurried over, "What's the matter, grandma?"

Grandma took out her wallet from Yan Ran's schoolbag, it was a classic LV wallet, it was a gift from her second uncle, it contained grandma's money, but the money was not worth the wallet s price.

Grandma took out 200 yuan from it, gave it to Yan Ran, and said, "Just now I was sitting on someone's bench, and a bunch of people went to his house. Those who spit, those who eat plums, those who eat melon seeds, he is an old man, and he can't clean up." It takes a lot of work and makes people tired, so you take the money to him. Said it was given by the sister-in-law of the Yan family."

Yan Ran knew before that this mountain forest, including the entire village, and all the land below the village extending to the outskirts of the county town, was owned by the Yan family before the founding of New China, but of course, the Yan family also suffered a lot because of it. .

Therefore, most of the old people in this village know Yan Ran's grandparents, but they may not have known each other, because when Grandma Yan Ran married his grandfather, she was no longer in this county.

Yan Ran knew what grandma meant, so he took the money and walked back.

The owner of the house was not given money just now because there were too many people at that time, and there was no way to give it.

Yan Ran walked back to the family he stayed in just now. The owner of this family was an old man in his sixties, and there was still a little distance. He heard someone inside say: "That boy is from the Yan family's generation. Look She is an obedient student."

"Yes, it doesn't look bad."

"But that might end with him."

"It's also possible that the prequels can't be counted."

"Everyone thinks so."

"The boss of the Yan family heard that he is a professor at a university, but he gave birth to a daughter. This daughter is very smart and capable. She went to the United States. Do you know that the United States is the best country? His second child, I heard that he has been in the United States. He is 50 years old, not married, and has no children. The boy just now is the only male of the Yan family's generation. If it is said that the Yan family will end here and there will be no descendants, it does not mean that the boy will die young .”

Another person laughed and said, "It's also possible that this boy can't have children, or can only give birth to daughters. Isn't the Yan family dying?"

"The gentleman who watched the Feng Shui of the Yan family said that the Yan family will be the last generation in this generation, that's for sure."

Yan Ran: "..."

Yan Ran was shocked in his heart, and felt that these people discussed his family too much, and finally thought, let his cousin and aunt hear this kind of talk, hehe, you all have a look on your face.

Besides, the last is the last, so what is this.

People don't necessarily have to have offspring.

Yan Ran silently walked to the door of this family, and saw that the old people who had left with his grandmother just now gathered here again, eating plums, eating melon seeds, drinking tea, spitting, and gossip about Yan's family. happy.

Seeing Yan Ran go and come back, all the old people and the children who stayed inside turned their eyes to him.

Yan Ran walked in with no expression on his face, handed 200 yuan to the owner sitting on top, and said, "My grandma asked me to give it to you, saying she was bothering you just now."

The other party was stunned for a moment, then stretched out his hand to pick it up, Yan Ran didn't stay any longer, and left quickly.

I only vaguely heard someone say: "The Yan family is really rich, and they are really generous."

"It's a family that has always enjoyed happiness."

"It's about to end."

Yan Ran returned to her grandma, who asked, "Have you given it?"

Yan Ran nodded.

Grandma: "Did you say anything?"

Yan Ran shook his head.

Grandma said, "Let's go."

Yan Ran thought, if she told grandma what those people were discussing about the future of the Yan family, grandma would probably be so angry that she would ask herself to ask for the 200 yuan back, and then go and spray these people.
