[Genshin] When Crumb Nut Leaves Tivat

"It's been too long, and I can't remember when it started." The mother looked at the paper bundles in the room with a happy and carefree face. I draw weird pictures and talk to myself. One day, I finally couldn’t take it anymore and asked him to choose between the pile of pictures and our mother and child, and he restrained himself a little.”

"It didn't take long for him to start suffering from insomnia, or it wasn't insomnia. He said he didn't dare to sleep, and would dream of a bizarre world when he fell asleep. Only when he lost consciousness after drinking alcohol would he not dream. I didn't know this at the time. It's a mental illness, I didn't take him to see a doctor, so I indulged him, I didn't expect such a thing to happen later." The mother showed an apologetic expression to Yang Lin.

Yang Lin bit his lip, unwilling to recall the past, and focused on the information revealed by his mother: "What did he draw? Why don't I have any impression?"

Mom gave a wry smile, "You didn't want to call him dad back then, so how could you notice what he was doing?"

"..." Yang Lin's Adam's apple rolled, irrefutable.During that time, he really didn't pay much attention to people.

"Are those paintings still there?" Yang Lin changed the subject.He remembered that when his father died, his mother seemed to burn a lot of things.

"It's gone. As I said, I don't want you to come into contact with these things again." Mom turned completely cold. The purpose of her telling the past was not to make Yang Lin curious, but to hope that he would be taboo and stay away.

Yang Lin didn't want to make the relationship so stiff, but these things were very important to him and Hu Tao.He still wanted to say something, but the harsh voice of the phone cut in.

Mom answered the phone, glanced coldly at the paper bundles all over the room, and lowered her voice: "Understood. I happen to have something to ask you too."

"Yang Lin, I'll go to your second uncle's place. Stay at home obediently and don't run around." Mom hung up the phone, unlike before she always took him everywhere, this time, she asked Yang Lin to stay.

Yang Lin obediently agreed, and as soon as his mother left, he immediately put on his shoes and prepared to go out to find walnuts.

Unexpectedly, Hu Tao was faster than him. As soon as his mother left, Hu Nuo came back.

"Ouch, I came here for a few laps, and finally caught you as an order." Hu Tao groaned.

"How do you speak? Is that what Luo Shan uses? I'm not a prey."

Hu Tao made a grimace, and got to the point, "I've been looking for you for a few days to ask this."

"This is..." Yang Lin took the blueprint, the blueprint given to them by his grandmother a few months ago, "The border between life and death."

At that time, Hu Tao suspected that her time travel was related to her father, but during that time, they both forgot about it in order to make a living. These days, when Yang Lin's mother came back, Hu Tao had nothing to do, so she found it out.

"Does your father have any other drawings?" Hu Tao's eyes sparkled.

"I..." Yang Lin felt that the painting his mother was talking about should refer to the drawings, "I'm not sure, I have to look for it. But my grandma must have kept it there."

He remembered that when his father passed away, his mother packed up a lot of relics and prepared to burn them all. It was grandma who had a big fight with her uncle before cutting off the things.

Since then, mother and grandma have no contact with each other.

"Before your mother comes back, let's go find grandma!" Hu Tao is now afraid of Yang Lin's mother.

Adults always think that their emotions are well hidden, but in fact, Hu Tao felt that he was not liked on the first day he met his mother.

"Okay." Yang Lin put on the scarf, saw Hu Tao's neck exposed in the air, took it off again, and wrapped it around her.

"Hey." Walnut sniffed.

On the way, Yang Lin told Hu Tao verbatim about the conversation with his mother.

"Why is the relationship between you and your father so bad?" Hu Tao still admires Yang Lin's father very much, from the works left behind, from the descriptions of grandma.

When Yang Lin mentioned this person again, he seemed to be less repulsive, "This is a very long story..."

Yang Lin remembered that when he was very young, his parents had a very good relationship. At that time, before they moved to Lantern Street, his father would go out early and return late every day. When he came back, he would always take a long bath. Will not go near Yang Lin.

Children are very sensitive to adults' likes and dislikes, but their father often confuses him.

If my father didn't like him, why did he always make all kinds of magical toys for him and teach him how to paint patiently?If father liked him, why didn't he ever hug him?In Yang Lin's memory, the only intimate contact between the two was when his father picked him up from school by bike, hugging him close to his back.

This confusion was finally resolved when Yang Lin was eight years old.However, the unraveling process was not pleasant.

Those friendly neighbors in the neighborhood, adults who usually pinch his face and give him snacks, suddenly don't like him anymore.The little friends who grew up with him spat at him, called him the son of a ghost, called him unlucky and a liar...

He was so frightened that he rolled and crawled home, and cried for a long time in front of his mother, before his mother told him that his father was the mortician in the town, responsible for moving the corpses and putting on makeup for the dead.For this reason, fathers are reluctant to have too close contact with their children.

Yang Lin could feel that his mother was trying to describe his father as a great person, but her tears exposed everything.Only then did he know that because of his father's work, the gossip and gossip imposed on his mother was no less than him.

Later they moved out of there and returned to Yangjia Town.

My father changed jobs, but because he had no other skills, he still worked in the funeral industry.There is a lot of competition in this industry. They have suffered a lot when they first arrived, their income has plummeted, and the pressure of life is increasing.On the other hand, the relatives of the Yang family are polite on the surface, but they always drive Yang Lin home during the holidays, and they don't let their children play with Yang Lin.

As Yang Lin grew up year by year, he gradually became taciturn, especially to his father, he would never call out the word "Dad" unless necessary.

There were more and more quarrels between his parents around him, Yang Lin always didn't care, until his father started to drink too much, and he got drunk every day, either talking nonsense or scolding Yang Lin with white eyes.

"I always complain about him. He is obviously capable, but he has been unwilling to change. Now it seems that he has his own difficulties." Yang Lin looked at the sky and let out a long breath of white air.

"Is there a reason?" Hu Tao didn't think so. She could feel Yang Lin's father's intentions from those works.In fact, Yang Lin also began to have his own thinking in his works. He was no longer just for making money, but to satisfy the wishes of customers, but Yang Lin didn't realize it, and he was not willing to admit it.

Hu Tao didn't intend to tell him these things, she thought Yang Lin would find out one day.

The two came to the grandma's house in the country.

Grandma, who was washing dishes, was surprised by their sudden visit and purpose.

"Did your father give you a dream?" Grandma's cloudy eyes lit up a little when she heard Yang Lin's request.

"Yes... yes." Yang Lin lied inadvertently.

"Oh. Why didn't he entrust me with a dream?" Grandma wiped the apron twice to dry the water stains on her hands, "He didn't tell me, how would I know what to give him on the memorial day?"

"It's okay, Yang Lin will dream about it in a few days, just ask him." Hu Tao comforted the old lady.

The old lady really became happy and went to the storage room to find things for them.

The old lady hid too many things, the bowls from decades ago, the rusty stove, the moving wooden ladder... all kinds of messy things, Yang Lin also saw the toys his father used to make for him.

"You have inherited your father's dexterity, and you will be able to achieve great things in the future." Unlike Yang Lin's mother's objection, or different from everyone else, grandma not only supports his father's work, but is always proud of him.

"Back then, your uncles were all studying, and your grandfather left suddenly. It was your father who earned money from job to job to support the family..."

People like to recall the past when they get old, and Yang Lin saw another side of his father from his grandmother's words.

"Okay, that's all, you two young people come to help." Father's relics were hidden in the deepest tin box, and grandma couldn't drag them out with great effort.

Walnut was picked up with one hand, and he could even handle it with ease.

"..." Young people are scary.
