Xu Yishan never thought that there would be such a legendary figure as his aunt in Maoshan County.
The aunt's behavior is dignified, and it can be seen that she was born as a lady. Despite his advanced age, he was well-groomed, clean and elegant, and it was absolutely impossible to see that this was an old man with a century of age.
The small courtyard is as spotless as she is.
The few small dishes she cooked with her own hands were delicate and exquisite, as if gluttony was a great insult.
Aunt Wu's grandma has never been married in her life. For decades, she hasn't stepped out of the small courtyard for a single step. So many people don't know that there is such an old man hidden in this old street.
Old Dong's father was in charge of the united front work of his aunt. After getting to know his aunt, he decisively made Lao Dong recognize his aunt as his relative.
Old Dong's family is the only family that can freely enter and leave the aunt's courtyard.
Du Juan is a descendant of his aunt, but he was not born in Maoshan. She is a descendant of my aunt and elder brother.
After my aunt and elder brother sacrificed, they left behind a posthumous son. The posthumous son was treated favorably by the government at the time and went to the island with the army. Later, he studied, got married, and gave birth to Du Juan.
The reason why Du Juan can come back to Maoshan County lies in the last words of her grandmother when she was dying.
After the young mistress of the Wu family followed the eldest of the Wu family, she has been fighting with the army. Never been to Maoshan.
I heard from my husband that Maoshan is the place where his leaves return to. No matter where he dies, he must try his best to return to his ancestral grave. As a result, after the heroic sacrifice of the elder brother of the Wu family, the bones were supposed to return to Maoshan, but encountered a more brutal melee, so they gave up.
The failure of the young master of the Wu family to return has become the biggest regret in the life of the young lady of the Wu family. Her greatest wish is that after her death, people can enter the ancestral grave and perform filial piety for her husband.
At that time, Du Juan knew that he still had a home in the mainland, and that place was Maoshan.
Du Juan's parents didn't know about the past. After Du Juan heard her grandma's last wish, she strongly demanded to come to the mainland to find relatives. After receiving the support of her parents, Du Juan traveled across the ocean to Maoshan County alone.
It was also by chance that Du Juan was able to find her aunt. She didn't have any clues. When grandma passed away, all the secrets were taken with her. Her parents knew nothing about these things.
The whole family knew the place name of Maoshan, and Du Juan still clearly remembered that grandma reminded her that this Maoshan was not a place for cultivating Taoism, but a county called Maoshan.
Du Juan found Maoshan County after going through untold hardships. The county heard that there were foreign guests, and immediately asked Lao Dong's father to receive them. After asking, they found out that they were looking for relatives.
However, the clues provided by the other party were really limited. Just when Lao Dong's father was about to give up the matter of finding relatives, he happened to think of his aunt in Lao Jie, so he brought Du Juan to Lao Jie with the mood of giving it a try.
Perhaps it was telepathy or something, since Du Juan stepped into the small street, he seemed to feel that everything in front of him was so familiar.
She felt as if a stormy sea was rolling in her heart, and she squatted on the ground covering her face and burst into tears.
After meeting my aunt, the two people from different generations looked at each other for at least ten minutes. But seeing the tears falling down her aunt's face, she beckoned Du Juan into her arms, and said very firmly: "She is a descendant of my Wu family."
Afterwards, my aunt said that from the first time she saw Du Juan, her memory seemed to be opened up in an instant, and the smiling Du Juan in front of her was a replica of her heroic and powerful elder brother back then.
Later, for the sake of safety, the grandparent and grandson also conducted a DNA test to finally confirm the relationship between relatives.
Du Juan's family moved to the beautiful country more than ten years ago. Du Juan's parents have no impression of their hometown. After all, when Grandpa Du Juan died heroically, her father was still in her grandma's stomach.
Du Juan's parents have no feelings for Maoshan, but after Du Juan found his grandparents, he refused to go back to the beautiful country.
She felt as if she had integrated into the land under her feet. As long as she stood on this land, she would feel refreshed and inexplicably fond of it.
She said many times that she would stay with her grandparents.
She liked it so much that she would feel distraught as long as she left here.
My aunt joked that Du Juan was brought into the world by her grandfather.
This legendary story, because it involves many unspeakable stories, can only be briefly described. If the story of the Wu family is truly expressed, it is hard to say how long this book will live.
Regardless of the past period of history or the current environment, it is not allowed to uncover the dust-covered past. We can only wait for the day when the clouds clear and the fog clears, and then slowly tell the story of the Wu family.
XuLushan listened to his aunt telling stories, and unknowingly drank a pot of wine.
For the first time, he felt drunk, and it was drunk from the bottom of his heart.
This feeling has never been seen in the past.
Xu Yishan has his own anti-alcohol enzyme, no matter what kind of wine, to him, it is just the muddy water of the world that passes through the intestines.
But at this moment, he was drunk and hazy. The slight drunkenness made him suddenly feel as if he was in another world.
The aunt's wine is called sweet-scented osmanthus brew.
Osmanthus fragrans comes from a century-old osmanthus tree in a small courtyard, perhaps even older.
It is said that when the flowers bloom, half of Maoshan City can smell the fragrance of sweet-scented osmanthus.
My aunt gathers sweet-scented osmanthus together every year and hides them in jars of ice and snow collected in winter. In the wine-making season, sweet-scented osmanthus is brewed with ice and snow water, and it becomes sweet-scented osmanthus brewing.
This wine is full of fragrance and mellow taste. The entrance is sweet, but it makes people feel elegant after drinking it.
Suddenly, Xu Yishan woke up with a start. He had drunk this wine by chance, and it was the old monk Wuxiu in Wuxiu Temple who gave him the drink.
Having thought of this, he couldn't help but feel agitated.
No old monk? The missing brothers of the Wu family, there will be no contact between them, right?
He stared at the white porcelain bottle on the table, and the more he looked at it, the more he felt familiar.
So, he tentatively asked: "Grandma, grandma, is this white bottle of yours an old thing?"
Grandaunt smiled gently, and said: "This bottle turned out to be a pair, and it was my father's favorite thing. It was not a jug, but his old man liked to use it to hold wine."
"When I was a child, every winter, what I did the most was to put a bottle full of wine in warm water to warm it up, and bring it to my father to drink."
When my aunt said this, there was a shy look on her face that only a girl could have, as if she had been immersed in a distant memory. The beauty of the past reminded her of her teenage years, and she felt insane.
Xu Yishan said cautiously: "I have seen a porcelain bottle exactly like this one."
The aunt sat up straight in an instant, her eyes sparkled and she asked, "Where have you seen it?"
Xu Yishan briefly explained how he met the old monk Wuxiu, the two became close friends, and the old monk invited him to drink.
He specifically said: "Grandma, I remember the old monk's wine, also called sweet-scented osmanthus brew. The taste and aroma are exactly the same as the wine made by grandma."
Grandparents froze for a moment, as if petrified.
Not long after, tears fell down, and he sighed: "The person you are talking about should be my little brother."
Although Xu Yishan was surprised, he was not very surprised.
We must know that everything in life has a cause and a relationship. I first met the old monk Wuxiu, and thought that the old monk was really a god. Now that I met my aunt, I realized that the world is impermanent, and life going around can give people a surprise at any time.
After pondering for a while, grandparents and grandma said decisively: "Take me to find my little brother." (Remember the website address of this website: www.hlnovel.com
