In 1983, a small island started from a large farmer

Chapter 63 Alzheimer's disease (for further reading)

On the day of the winter solstice.

Li Duoyu was woken up by the sound of firecrackers early in the morning.

After coming to the courtyard.

Li Duoyu found out that the second sister-in-law, Xiaoying and Li Haoran were already making small balls in the yard.

Dad was lying on the rocking chair listening to the radio.

A Niang prepared things for ancestor worship. On the day of the winter solstice in Dandan Island, in addition to eating rounds and sweets, she had to worship the ancestors.

Li Duoyu yawned and was about to wash his face, but what he didn't expect was that an unexpected person appeared in the courtyard.

An old lady dressed in the period of the Republic of China came to their house with a cane and shouted: "Xiaotian, are you at home?"

When Chen Huiying saw the old lady, her face immediately dropped.

The second sister-in-law Zhu Xiuhua muttered: "Didn't it be agreed a long time ago that we will never communicate with each other, why do we still have the face to come here?"

Li Haoran, who was making balls, was also shocked when he saw Azu.

But he was even more curious:

Who is Xiaotian?

Lao Li, who was lying on the rocking chair, saw A Niang approaching, sat up suddenly, and looked at the old lady in front of him with a complicated expression.

For a moment, I didn't know how to face her.

However, what made Li Zhengtian even more depressed was how old he was, why did Aniang still call him by his nickname.

Since the old ladies have come to the door on their own initiative.

No matter how angry Chen Huiying was.

Li Zhengtian couldn't pretend he didn't see it either.

"Mom, why are you here?"

When the old lady saw Li Zhengtian, her wrinkled face looked like it had bloomed, and she lifted the leather bag in her hand and said:

"The winter solstice is here."

"I made you your favorite xiaoyuanzi."

The little fat pier at the side suddenly realized.

Now he knew who the little Tian was that Azu was talking about, but Grandpa was so old, it was really funny to be called this kind of child's name.

Seeing the old lady with bound feet walking towards him with a cane, Li Zhengtian hurried forward to help him.

But what he didn't expect was.

The old lady didn't take two steps, looked at the people in the yard, and said a little angrily: "Xiaotian, who are these women? They are all making dumplings at your house."

After hearing this, Chen Huiying was really angry.

What do you mean who are these women?
Even though she has always had a good personality, she couldn't help but want to rush out and scold the old lady.

The second sister-in-law snorted coldly: "You don't even look at us, how would you know who we are?"

Li Zhengtian's face was a bit ugly, he really couldn't tell for a while, whether his mother was here to make trouble on purpose, or if he really forgot everyone.

Zhou Xiaoying frowned tightly, and she came to Li Duoyu's side: "Do you feel that Grandma is a little strange."

Li Duoyu nodded.

He naturally knew what was going on with Grandma, but he didn't expect that he already had Alzheimer's disease so early, and it was still so serious.

And right now.

The third uncle Li Zhengfa came to look for him, and when he saw the old lady came to the second brother's house, his face was very embarrassed, and he hurriedly held the old lady's arm.

"Mother, let's go back first."

The old lady raised her cane to hit him, and said:

"Among all the brothers, you are the worst. You lock me in the house all day, don't let me out, and don't tell me, where is the old five?"

"Aniang, don't blame me casually."

"Obviously you couldn't come out by yourself."

At this moment, everyone also noticed that something was wrong with the old lady. Lao Li walked up to the third child and asked in a low voice, "Mother, what's wrong?"

Li Zhengfa sighed: "Didn't I go out to sea to fish a few days ago, but she was like this when she came back, crying every day to see you, probably because she was stimulated when she heard that Yujun was arrested."

"Did you go to the hospital?"

"Look, the doctor said it was Alzheimer's disease."

After hearing about this disease, everyone present frowned, only Li Haoran asked his mother with a blank face:

"Alzheimer's disease, what kind of disease is it?"

"Kid, don't ask so many questions."

After Zhu Xiuhua heard about this illness, she suddenly felt lucky that the old lady didn't have a good relationship with them and didn't live with them.

She heard people say that at the end of the disease, she couldn't take care of herself, and had to be taken care of by many people. It was really a toss.

After Li Zhengtian heard that it was Alzheimer's disease, he became serious. At the same time, he also understood why A Niang came to them and called him by his childhood name.

The old lady walked a few steps, sat on a bamboo chair beside her, and continued:

"Are you ready for the farewell, today is the winter solstice, I will take you brothers to worship the ancestors together.

Let me tell you, our old Li's family is different from other people on the island, but they have a lot of background. In the Republic of China, our Li's Chamber of Commerce was one of the best in Rongcheng. "

The third uncle glanced at the old lady.

Then he looked helplessly at the second brother, seeing the situation, the old lady was planning to stay here, and would not leave until the second brother was ready to say goodbye.

Chen Huiying looked at the old lady with disgust, then handed the goodbye basket to Lao Li, and said:

"This year, it's up to you to worship."

"I'm not going."

Just as Chen Huiying finished speaking, the old lady actually said: "You are not our Li family, so of course you cannot be allowed to pay your respects."

After hearing this.

Chen Huiying's face was as dark as a storm, and her teeth were clenched. Seeing this, third uncle Li Zhengfa hurriedly smoothed things over and said:
"Sister-in-law, my mother is out of her mind."

"You don't care about her, otherwise it will be endless."

Chen Huiying let out a breath, then turned around and closed the door, keeping out of sight.

See my wife close the door.

Lao Li carried the basket of worship, and then said: "Yaoguo, Duoyu, you two come with me."

After hearing this.

Li Yaoguo just came out of the room, he didn't intend to get involved in this troublesome matter, but Father called him, so he couldn't pretend he wasn't at home.

On the way to worship ancestors.

The old lady looked at Li Duoyu and said, "You child, I have a little impression that you used to play with us Yujun often."

Li Duoyu, who heard this, was also very helpless. He knew that he would not go to the third uncle's house a few days ago.

If he hadn't got the long-lived hundred-year-old lock with his name on it, he probably wouldn't feel sad now.

And when they arrived at the ancestral hall.

The uncle's family and his cousins ​​have all arrived. After listening to them, the old lady woke them up early in the morning.

Judging from the expressions of those cousins, they probably all knew that the old lady was ill.

Under the auspices of the old lady.

Each of them got three sticks of incense, and then, while praying, the old lady recited the names of the people in the photo.

But when he saw the posthumous photo at the bottom, his hands holding the incense could not help shaking, and his old face was full of tears.

Everyone understands.

The old lady probably woke up again.

The old lady looked back, and Li Zhengtian, Li Yaoguo and Li Duoyu behind them turned around and said respectfully to the spiritual tablet:

"Today, I bring the descendants of the Li family to see you. I hope that the grandparents will bless the next generation, the family will be safe, healthy, and make a lot of money."

　PS: Since "rubbing circles" has a special meaning, then I will make small circles. After this chapter is finished, the character of the old lady will almost be offline. In fact, the author has also struggled, whether to waste a chapter or two on the role of the old lady, but I always feel that since it is writing about the age, writing about the countryside, interpersonal relationships, and family affection, it is inevitable. I also hope that the role of the old lady can make the whole story look more three-dimensional and full.

　　The following plots will pay more attention to discussing the sea and farming. I hope that the big guys can support this book more.

　　In the new issue, follow-up reading is the most important thing, please tap your phone and scroll to the last page.
