The white-haired old lady Uesugi said slowly with a smile:
"There are very few jades of good quality in Japan. I heard that they are something that has been preserved in the Warring States Period. As for whether it is something that Kenshin Uesugi, we are not very clear about it.
"After all, since your grandfather's great-grandfather's generation, the Zong family has been flying for some reason. All the genealogy records have completely disappeared, leaving only these two pieces of red magma."
"These two stones will be given to you and Xiao Huahuo as gifts from grandma."
Uesuma gently stroked the soft jade block with his thumb, and looked up and said:
"Grandma, grandpa's side--"
The old lady Uesugi in Dansu kimono smiled and shook her head, interrupting him:
"He will do your grandfather's affairs well. He wants to overcome the obstacles he has to do it himself. There are some things that you don't need to ask too much about. It is enough for you to take a safe vacation here during this period."
"Yes." Uesugi nodded slightly.
The old lady Uesugi has a slow and heavy manner. She waved to the Hanaman Hanabu, who was happily eating oranges behind Uesugi, and said:
"Little Huahuo, I'll eat it later. Come and let grandma see you first."
Hanamaru Hanabu raised his head and just took off the juiced orange. Then he walked to the mat in front of the old lady Uesugi and sat down obediently, shouting:
"grandmother......."
Huahuo once came here for a relaxing vacation.
The old lady Uesugi smiled at the little girl who had asked her to hug her before and said, "Come on, stretch out your hand."
"So too, Azhao." The old lady shouted slowly.
Uesugi Tou stretched out his hand to the old lady.
The old lady Uesugi showed a kind smile to the two of them in front of her, and then put their hands together.
The old man's nagging and blessings came out slowly:
"A childhood sweetheart can be regarded as a bad fate. When two young children grow up, they always look up to the past time.
"Remember, memory, everyone misses the ignorant years of the past, but when they come to their senses, both parties have already been in a different place and have their own lives and families.
"The sincerity of the past can only be buried deep in my heart."
"Grandma is very happy that you still maintain such a deep relationship and have not become indifferent to each other because of the familiarity of time.
"Many married couples are not as good as you. This is the truly rare and precious thing between you. Cherish this hard-won fate. God has been silently blessing you."
As he was talking, the old lady took out a delicate and gorgeous fir box from behind.
He handed it to Azhao.
Uesugi took it with both hands, and the first feeling he felt after buying the small box was that it was thick.
"What is this..." Hanamara Hanamisuo asked curiously.
The old lady Uesugi closed the sleeves on both sides of the kimono together, "This is the engagement gift to you by the old man and grandma. It's a little less, but it's also considered a big wish."
Cheering means...money?
Uesuma Dora carefully felt the smooth wood in her hands.
It's heavy, the amount is so solid that it is probably no less than millions of yen.
"This..." Uesugi Do not know if he should be charged the money given by the old lady.
If I switched to China, my mother would definitely come up and push away the money given by the old lady, and even say that she would not be able to use it.
Then after a series of polite words, he could not resist the old man's stubbornness and had to accept it barely.
However, in Japan, in front of the old lady Uesugi, Uesugi had to push and stop him.
"Grandma, grandpa still needs money here, so we don't need that anymore."
"Azhao," the old lady Uesugi shouted his nickname, "You have helped the old man, and now you have passed the most difficult moment. With a little turn, grandma is just returning the money to you for the old man."
"But this should be more than two million yen, right?" said Uesugi Sao, who was holding the exquisite small wooden box.
"Ha ha......"
The old lady Uesugi, who was sitting very well, laughed indifferently and said, "Otherwise, how could grandma say it was a gift?"
Uesugi is not the kind of person who pretends to be polite: "Thank you grandma."
Hanamaru Hanabu, who was sitting well, also shouted: "Thank you grandma..."
The old lady smiled even happier, "It's still Little Huahuo shouting sweetly."
Afterwards, Uesugi Sato and Hanamaru Hanabuki followed Uesugi Yoko to the guest room.
The old lady seemed to have something to say to her two mothers.
Mrs. Hanamaru is a guest here, but she has been here for many visits to Ehime Prefecture, so she is also a regular guest of the Uesugi family.
The three of them walked together on the eaves of the Japanese-style house of Uesugi.
"Aunt, where is the Hachiman Shrine?"
“Haman Shrine?”
Uesugi Yoko recalled it for a while before she could read the memory from the distant years, "You are talking about the one in Sakurachi? Didn't that be abandoned for decades?"
"Decades?"
"It's a pity to say that it was a place with great incense."
"what happened?"
"earthquake."
Yunko Uesugi said, "That year was an 8-magnitude earthquake, and all the houses in this area collapsed and destroyed, and many people died because of this. I still remember that scene freshly.
"After the earthquake, the people who paid tribute started from the ruins of Hachiman Shrine, and the team continued from the top of the mountain to the foot of the mountain. The three brothers and sisters stood on the top of the mountain, looking at the long lights and candlelights that were heading towards the coast."
Hanamaru Hanawa followed Uesugizo, and outside the eaves, there was the dwarf pine courtyard surrounding Uesugi's home.
Uesugi Yoko's words bring the smell of elders recalling the past:
"Originally, Hachiman Shrine was planned to be rebuilt after the disaster, but the Lord of God's family of six unfortunately passed away in the earthquake. We have never found anyone to replace this tradition, so the place gradually became deserted."
My aunt Uesugi Yunko, who always smiled, couldn't help but sigh at this time.
"Oh, when it comes to this, your grand aunt also unfortunately passed away that day."
Grandma's aunt is grandfather's sister.
Uesuma Dori has never heard of having a grand aunt.
"Your grandfather doesn't want to recall, so we brothers and sisters won't take the initiative to mention her. Azhao, your generation doesn't know these things."
“…”
The blue sky in Ehime Prefecture is always the same color as the sea.
"It's all over, so don't care too much if Azhao and Hanawai Chan hear it."
Yunko Uesugi: "Do you remember the stream you bathed in Hanaishi when you were a child?"
Uesugi Take a look at Hanamaru Hanai, who shrank his head, and then said to his aunt who was walking in front:
"Remember, the position is a bit off."
"Follow the stream and find a Torii with only two pillars left. After passing through it, it will be the abandoned Hachiman Shrine."
Uesugi Yoko turned around.
