When Wang Yi's wife saw her son huddled in the corner, with his head lowered and silent as if he were stupid, she pulled her son over with a smile, slapped the dirt off his body angrily, and asked her son to greet the guests.

"You kid, how do you know where to eat? Just like your father, you run away for the whole day and don't know how to come back unless you're hungry. When guests come to the house, you don't know how to say hello. It's useless.

This is your Grandma Feng, this is your Sister Ru Feng, please call this Brother Zhanqiang, it seems to be not much different from you. This is my eldest son, his name is Tiedan, but he dare not speak to strangers."

The boy called 'Tiedan' just smiled sheepishly, his face turned red from holding back, and he called 'Grandma Feng...' in a mosquito-like voice following his mother's introduction, which seemed very unnatural.

"Even if it's like this, my eldest grandson doesn't dare to see anyone. Come here quickly and let Grandma Feng see my tough grandson. Don't be embarrassed. Hurry up and come to the table to eat with grandma."

"Don't worry about him, let him go and play first. Aunt Feng, let's go to the table to eat. Ru Feng and Zhan Qiang are also coming, and I will accompany you to eat.

Let Tiedan lead my sister to play on the ground for a while, and then they can eat after we finish eating. Isn’t it the first month of the year and we haven’t gone out yet? It’s still the New Year. Let’s have a few cups to celebrate the New Year, we have to be happy!”

"Uncle Wang, you are too polite. Let the children eat together. They are not outsiders. If the children are not allowed to serve, the aunt will not feel well and will not be able to eat well. It will be lively if they all eat together.

I don't know how to drink, and the children don't know either. Uncle Wang, you can drink it by yourself, and my aunt will chat with you. Quickly, let the children come to the table and eat together."

Grandma Feng went down to the ground to bring Tiedan and her sister to the table for dinner, but they all stayed away. Ru Feng also came over to help and put them in front of the table, but as soon as they were put down, they ran away again.

It seems that they will not come to the table to eat with the guests without an adult speaking up. This is how farmers educate their children, and it is the same for families with rules.

"Auntie, please don't bother them. The table is too crowded. Anyway, they are eating the same food, so let them eat it later. Come, go out with mom and play outside for a while while waiting for Grandma Feng and the others.

Let’s eat after we finish eating.”

Wang Yi's wife was afraid that the children would affect the guests' appetite and make them unable to eat well, so she wanted to take the children to the yard to play. But Grandma Feng disagreed and insisted on eating with the children, saying that it was getting late and she couldn't be hungry.

child.

After Grandma Feng's strong request, Wang Yinan finally spoke, and the children sat down at the dinner table with smiles.

For the farmers, this was a relatively sumptuous dinner, and everyone enjoyed it very happily. Grandma Feng also found it difficult to refuse the hospitality, and even with Wang Yinan's repeated courtesy, she drank a little wine with him.

It was already very late after dinner. Wang Yinan's wife tidied up and cleaned the North Kang, and then asked the three members of the Feng family to rest on the North Kang, while the four members of Wang Yinan's family crowded on the South Kang to rest.

The next morning, Wang Yi's wife cooked another table of steaming meals and served them very considerately, which moved Grandma Feng and her family very much.

After dinner, the three Feng family members said goodbye and went on their way. Wang Yinan, his wife, and their children were sent a long way away, and they were told to come home and sit down when they passed by again. Of course, the Feng family was extremely grateful and said many things.

Words of gratitude and blessings.

It was getting dark again, so Grandma Feng asked Ru Feng to park the car in the lee of a high hill, saying that the three of us, grandma and grandson, would stay here tonight and not go to the village to trouble others.

They are all very enthusiastic, which makes people feel uncomfortable. We can't repay them, so we will just stay here. This place is out of the wind, so we will rest here. If it is too cold in the middle of the night, we will get up and leave.

No matter how bad the sin is, it is all suffered by people, and it will be over after a while.

This is a high hill. Not far from the roadside, someone took away soil, leaving a slightly concave depression. The ridge formed on it can just block the wind.

There is a poplar forest above the ridge, with trees of all sizes stretching into the distance. Although this place faces the road, the sunken place is still very far away from people. Even if you hide here during the day, it is difficult to be spotted by people walking on the road.

I found that I couldn't even see it at night.

After putting the car in place, the grandma and grandson went to the woods to collect firewood first. They had to prepare more to survive the long cold night. They used their fast legs and ran back and forth with their sister. Grandma was only responsible for collecting firewood and not going back and forth.

run.

Not long after, there was a lot of firewood gathered, mostly with dead branches. It seems that this place may not be very close to the countryside, otherwise such good firewood would have been picked up by others.

After lighting a fire, they first roasted dry food and boiled water. After eating, they moved the things in the car to the ground, spread a quilt on the car, and the three of them piled in and slept together.

It's not very spacious, and the three of us can only lie down sideways. But it's warm even if we're crowded together, and we can keep each other warm, otherwise we really wouldn't be able to sleep.

No matter how tightly the package was wrapped, it was difficult to withstand the cold. Grandma Feng couldn't sleep, so she got out of the car again and again to add firewood to the fire. Ru Feng was worried that her grandma wouldn't be able to bear it, so she often got out of the car to accompany her.

Zhan Qiang was a child after all, and he quickly fell asleep soundly, even shouting in his dream. Grandma was afraid that Zhan Qiang slept too deeply and would freeze, so she asked him to get up and warm himself by the fire before going to sleep.

I kept going like this until the middle of the night, but I didn't get a good night's sleep. I felt sleepy, cold and uncomfortable, so I asked to go on the road, saying that running on the ground would dispel the cold.

Grandma Feng did not agree, saying that if we persisted until it was almost bright before setting off, it would be too dark to see the road clearly, and we might encounter some danger, so we couldn't leave now.

So they lighted the fire again, boiled another pot of boiling water, and the three of them drank to warm themselves up. It was difficult to fall asleep, so the grandfather and grandson talked around the fire to pass the cold and uncomfortable time.

The darkest time before dawn is also the coldest time. People call it "Ghost Qiya". Even when he is around the fire, he is shivering with cold. Zhan Qiang roasts his front and back while stamping his feet, but his teeth are still there.

The constant trembling, the pain in his feet that felt like cat bites, and the tightness all over his body were simply unbearable.

"Pour out the water in the jar, put the charcoal in the fire, and let Zhan Qiang hold it. It's almost dawn and the firewood is almost gone. Let's get up and leave."

The family pulled up the car again, climbed up the road with difficulty, and faced the coldest morning wind before dawn, and tried hard to move forward. No one could tell what the outcome of this trip would be. They could only hope that

It is a way of life.

After the sun came out, the weather calmed down a bit. I passed by a village, filled the well with water, and inquired about the route. The three of them pulled up the car and drove forward, completely ignoring the strange looks from others.

Near noon, the family stopped again, chose a sunny place beside the driveway, and continued to light a fire to boil water and roast dry food to satisfy their hunger.

From this time on, the three of them did not dare to eat as much as they wanted. The dry food became less and less, and their physical strength became more and more exhausted. The strength to pull the cart was reduced, and the walking speed also slowed down.

Taking advantage of the warmer weather during the day, the three of them took turns sleeping in the car to recover their strength. Of course, Zhan Qiang often received special care and slept more.

Ru Feng rarely lay down in the car to rest. Every time, her grandma forced her to get in. She felt that she had implicated her grandma and younger brother, so they were forced to leave home, not to mention that she was also the strongest among the three.

Yes, you should pay more.

Suffering from cold and even hunger, the three Feng family members finally approached Qinglan County. Although they suffered a lot, fortunately there were no major accidents.

This was considered very lucky in those days, not to mention that the three of them were old and young, and they didn't even have a strong man.

When they arrived at the Guandi Temple on the edge of Qinglan County, Grandma Feng asked Ru Feng to stop, pulled the car towards the Guandi Temple, and said she should go first and have a look at the Guandi Temple. Ru Feng didn't know what grandma meant, but she didn't ask.

This Guandi Temple is relatively large in scale and looks quite impressive. When you walk into the main hall, it is quite spacious. The statue of Guan Erye is also tall and mighty. Even Zhou Cang at his feet is glaring with a cross sword and is extremely majestic.

Violate.

It seems that people often come to offer incense, and the incense table in front of the statue also has residual incense left from recent worship services.
