Chapter 291, Once Upon a Time

When he walked into the village, he suddenly felt as if he had walked into the village of his youth, the Tangjia village of that era, just like the village in front of him. The same old, the same poor, the same surrounded by mountains, the same is a young man who does not like to reciprocate, only the old man and children live in the village Tang.

In addition to seeing those barefoot and ragged children, Tang Bu also seemed to see his own general. At that time, he was so weak, so inferior, so helpless, so unfair, especially when he was in school. Don Bu asked, crouching down in front of a barefoot boy with few clothes.

"Young man, how old are you? Have you ever read?"

Uncle, I'm nine years old. I was in the first grade of elementary school. Now school is on vacation, so I'm going home. By the way, uncle, are you here to give us a gift? The little boy was puzzled for a moment when he saw Tang Bu approaching, and then he carefully looked at the crowd and supplies behind him, while carefully carrying Tang Bu back.

Tang Bu nodded, reached out and took a small fur-lined coat for the little boy to put on, and then whispered to him, "Children, study hard. We can't choose our birth, but we can choose our future. Thank you uncle, thank you uncle for new clothes, uncle I will remember your words, thank you.

The little boy had forgotten how long it had been since he had worn his new clothes, so when he saw his new clothes, he began to cry. "Don't cry, men don't shed blood and tears, remember what your uncle said, study hard, try to be a useful person in the future, if you don't have money to study in the future, you can go to Tangjia Village in Laochao, Guangdong to find your uncle, and your uncle will help you go to school" Again, the gentle tone told the little boy to study hard, Tang Bu turned around and saw Tang Xiaomu and they said: "Give each of them a gift." ”。

Each person has a quilt, a bag of rice, a bag of bacon, a barrel of oil, ten bags of salt, ten catties of pepper, a New Year's red envelope of 500 yuan, and a set of winter clothes for the elderly and children. Just as Tang Xiaomu went to deliver gifts, Tang Bu took Xiaobu and Tang Ran took the supplies, and came to the door of a house, only a lonely old man, and said: "Hello, uncle, we are here to give you a New Year's gift. ”

"Hello, welcome to our village, if you don't mind, please come in and sit, your two children are so cute" The old man was very old, but to his surprise, such a fluent old man appeared, a village full of dialects Tang, and even dialects were rarely spoken.

Tang Bu glanced at the old man suspiciously, and then slowly followed the old man into their home, and then Tang Bu was startled by the things of Tang noodles, erhu, guzheng, pipa, leather drums, bamboo chairs, although it looked very shabby, Tang noodles were full of memories and ancient mud courtyards.

Of course, what surprised Don was not the existence of musical instruments, but the fact that these instruments were made by the old man himself, and he now placed them in the courtyard of Tang. Seeing his surprise, the old man smiled. Then he picked up an erhu and smiled at him. "Son, what do you do? Why do you want to do good in this poor valley Don?"

"Hello, uncle, my name is Tang Bu, I am a singer, a composer, and you, when I saw that your house was full of musical instruments, I thought you must not be an ordinary person, right?" Seeing the old man holding an erhu, Tang Bu asked curiously about the old man's background, because he felt that the old man was not simple, and there must be a moving or profound love story in his body.

When Erhu's hand was a toy for Xiaobu and Tang Ran to play with, the old man walked to an iron stove in front of him, and while adding boiling water to the kettle Tang, which looked like tea, he smiled and said to Tang Bu: "I'm not the person you think. "I'm just a person waiting for someone"

Can you tell me your story? I'm a composer, and I really need a true story like yours to be inspired. The more I listened to the old man's story, the more he felt that he had a story to tell, so he immediately burst out laughing and encouraged the old man to tell his own story. Listening to his words, the old man first picked up the kettle and washed the tea set.

Then he made tea for Tang Bu and said to him with a smile: "My story, it was probably in the early seventies more than fifty years ago, when the Yan Kingdom was still a relatively closed and backward country. But I wasn't born in this Don at that time, I was actually a native of the capital, but later when I was working in the countryside, I was assigned to this Don.

When I was assigned to this Tang, I felt very lucky, because the transportation in this Tang was not convenient, and many things from outside could not come to Tang, so we were in this Tang, even in the most difficult times, but still barely able to eat.

But the luck didn't last long, because it wasn't long before I met, met, fell in love, was with a college student from another province, and we even agreed to spend the rest of our lives together. Maybe it's fate, it's 83 years since she took the exam, and she successfully seized the opportunity to go to college. Then she told me that she was going out to study, and that I should wait for her here, and when she was done, she would come back and live a better life with me.

But it was fifty years, I went out to look for her, fifty years, I didn't find her, I didn't write to her, but I didn't get a reply. It wasn't until I went out to look for her that the villagers told me she had come back to look for me, but I wasn't there, so she quickly left again. It's that after that, I was afraid of missing out with her again, so I didn't go out anymore, and then my life was waiting for her here, and this is also the life waiting for her.

Ha-ha-ha, then you said that children were as good as they are now, there are mobile phones, mobile phones can find people, unlike in our time, what is slow... But the waiting time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, I had changed from a young man to an old man in his seventies, hehe, this song used to slowly jump into Don's mind Tang.

So he subconsciously stretched out his hand, picked up the small cloth and played the erhu, and then began to close his eyes and slowly pull it up, singing while playing; I remember when I was younger, we were sincere. The song Tang Bu sings is obviously not about the elderly, but the elderly are easily deceived.

He seemed to go back to that poor, simple age, he seemed to see the coal-burning train, he seemed to see the train station where people came and went, as if he had returned to the moment when he saw her off at the train station, the words "the sun is slow, the carriage and mail are slow, there is only one person in life to love" made him cry... For 50 years, he had no contact with life outside, he was just waiting for her to come back in his own little world Don, slow car, slow horse, slow mail, his life was always waiting for her body, so he didn't have time to love others.

"Grandpa, don't cry. Xiaobu gives you a tissue. My father said that men should bleed instead of crying When the old man heard his father's singing and crying, Xiaobu immediately took out a tissue and went upstairs to comfort the old man.

Hearing Xiaobu's comfort, the old man picked up a tissue and wiped the corners of his eyes, and then said in a trembling voice: "My child, grandpa has had a hard time. He's been waiting for this Tang for fifty years, fifty years. How many fifty years can a person's life have, grandpa, my life has passed in such a wait, and now it is too late to say that it is not too late, but even if you continue to wait, what has grandpa finally waited for? Son, grandpa will give you a piece of advice, if there is a girl in the future who asks you to wait for her, remember not to wait for her, because women are all liars, they are all big liars, just like grandpa's daughter-in-law, who clearly promised to come back and bring grandpa to live a better life, but let grandpa wait for her for 50 years in this stupid way.

Grandpa, grandpa, my uncle Tang Bu is a big star, that kind of big star is known to many people, if you want to find grandma, you can call my uncle Tang Bu to help you Oh, he is really good, although Tang Ran was very unhappy, but he was still very smart to go up and hand the old man a tissue.

Tang Ran listened to the little girl's words, just finished singing slowly, then put down the erhu with a smile, and nodded to the old man: "Uncle, if you want, I can make a video for you. I don't know if I can help you find your girlfriend, but I can help you find her" "Video? Is it the kind on TV? I've never been on TV in my life. Does it cost a lot of money to go on TV?

Last time, an Internet celebrity came to say that they wanted to help me find someone, and they asked me for 20,000 yuan, but I didn't have that much money, so they stopped looking for me, don't you do the same? Suddenly remembered that the last time the old man came from the Internet, he immediately asked the nervous Tang Bo to collect money from him.

Tang Bu shook his head slightly, and then said to the old man with a smile: "Uncle, I don't need your money. I'm here to do good, not to make money. And, uncle, if you wish, I would like to invite you to settle down in our village Tang, and then open a musical instrument shop in Natang, and help me teach some apprentices who can make musical instruments.

In return, I will give you a pension and use my own best ability to help you find, you have been waiting for her for more than 50 years, what's the matter?you don't want to lose her, lose your craft heritage, you can really offer it to me in my old age, you are not my relative, why should you offer it to me, just for my hand, these skills Hearing such a liar, Tang Bu, the old man immediately became wary of Tang Bu again.

After glancing at the old man, Tang Bu explained with a wry smile: "Uncle, you probably don't know how terrible Internet celebrities are. I'm telling you, if you still live in this Don after I took a video of you looking for her. And then within two days, you'll immediately appear in this Don, a large number of internet celebrities, and then they will take you to hype up the hot spots, or slander you how to earn traffic, and even at the end of the video of you looking for people, will become the road of internet celebrity hype. The reason I want to take you away is that I don't want you to be disturbed by the peaceful lives of those internet celebrities, and I don't want your craft to be lost, so... "You take a video of me first, and when I see your video, I'll decide whether to go with you or not.

To be honest, I have lived in this Tang for more than 50 years, although I have no friends in this Tang, I still can't stand the idea that I may never come back, the old man did not directly agree to Tang Bu's request, but asked Tang Bu to record a video for him first, Tang Bu nodded first, and then took out his mobile phone and called Tang Xiaomu, now I will give you a chance to shoot, you move your equipment to my side, it is the courtyard Tang on this side of the village, come on... ”

"Okay, I'll be there right away" I heard Tang Xiaowu say that he had something to shoot, Tang Xiaomu immediately called back and agreed, and came over immediately, directly abandoning Tang Xiaoye and them, and then took the camera equipment by himself and returned to the old man in the village Tang Tang.

While Tang was waiting in the room, Tang Bu saw Tang Xiaomu come in, waved to him, and then told him the subject of the shooting, "Come here, let me tell you the shooting and the background." The purpose of this video is to help this uncle find a woman he has been waiting for for more than 50 years, so when you shoot later, try to take some sad routes, the light of the camera, try to darken it a little bit, okay. Then I'll show you how to do this video.

First of all, you take the old photos of the old man, uh, those pictures on the wall, one by one from the photos of him when he was younger, and then you can just make a scrolling video clip.

After that, he asked his uncle to take a picture of the woman he was looking for, and then he began to say some affectionate words, a monologue, that's it, if you take a photo, is it okay Tang Xiaomu squatted on that Tang with the camera equipment first, and thought for a while. After thinking for a while, Tang Xiaomu suddenly stood up, handed the photographic equipment to Tang Bu, and said to him with a smile: "Brother Tang Bu, your video is too monotonous, let's choose the way of interview to communicate with my uncle, come on, you don't want to be on camera, then I'll be a reporter, you be a photographer, okay?"

"Okay!" After listening to Tang Xiaomu's words, he thought about it and felt that it didn't matter, so he nodded. Then, after briefly understanding the old man's situation and explaining how the old man would cooperate with the shooting, Tang picked up the shooting equipment and followed Tang Xiaomu out, and then the two began to like the reporter's interview and began to record the beginning of the interview at the door. After the recording began, Tang Xiaomu took the microphone, faced the camera of Tang Bu, and said calmly: "The saddest thing in life is that I still love you, but I can no longer find you.

Hello everyone, I am Tang Xiaomu, the owner of love. Today we received a special request from a 70-year-old. He wants to use our program to find the lover who has kept him waiting for 50 years. The uncle's name is Zhang Jude, his ancestral home is the capital of the fifth street in Chaoyang District, the third street, and then about fifty-two years ago in the countryside, he came to Anle Village, Nanyang, Guangxi as a young man, and also met the love of his life in this Tang, a girl similar to him is to become a young girl, this girl is the woman Qiu Mingzhu who made him wait for a lifetime. Later, in a college entrance examination in 1983, Qiu Mingzhu, the lover of the old man Zhang Jude, left him and embarked on the road of study, and then they were separated for more than 50 years and never met again.

For more than 50 years, the old man Zhang Jude has been silently waiting in front of her in this poor mountain village Tang, waiting for the person who promised him that he would come back to live a better life with him in the future, which is the same 50 years of waiting.

Fifty years later, an old man in his seventies, Jude Zhang, is afraid that he can't wait for her return, so today he wants to call his daughter through our show.

Miss Qiu Mingzhu, do you remember Zhang Jude from Anle Village? Do you remember the person who was waiting for you? Are you still in this world? The speed used to be very slow, so it was difficult to reach. If you are still in this Don, please contact our program. We and Jude Sr. are waiting to see you. Please give us a report on the 50 year waiting period."
