Chapter 63: The Bitter Past
Screenwriter Zhang only remembered to listen to his father at this time, and he didn't tell his father about his own affairs, he told his own experience of how he got out of danger: that day I ran with my mother's clothes, I didn't bring anything, I was carrying my father's suona, people squeezed around, I loosened my mother's clothes, I ran behind my mother, watching my mother's back and running, I trotted slowly, and once pulled my mother's placket, didn't pull it for a while and was squeezed away, listening to the explosion of the shell falling nearby, I was very scared, when I was afraid, I felt that someone was pushing me to the ground in the backIt was dark and then I didn't know anything.
When I woke up, it was getting dark, I struggled to crawl out of the mound, and saw that there were dead people all around me, all blood, so scared that I kept calling my father, kept calling my mother, crying loudly, and didn't dare to run around, just when I was crying, a few soldiers of the Eighth Route Army ran to my side, asked me what the situation was, and after seeing that there was no one alive around, they asked me to follow them, I said I wanted to find my father and my mother, and one of the big sisters said to go with them first, and when I had the opportunity, I would send me home, so I followed the big brothers and sisters, and when I got to the resting place, the big sister helped me check and found that my back was cut by the shell skin, but fortunately it was not deep, just scratched the flesh, not small but afraid of being blown up. Alas, when I was young, I forgot to look for suona again, if I took suona away at that time, maybe my father would think I was still alive.
I have been following the troops everywhere like this, and twice I really passed by our Zhanggezhuang, what I saw was that the Japanese and traitors were stationed there, and I also asked the guerrilla captain at that time to find my grandmother and grandfather, and I couldn't send me to them, who knew that the captain heard the address, and said that there was no need to look for it, and there was no one in that village now, and I knew that my grandfather's family had also been killed by devils.
The army also wanted to leave me at the villager's house, but I didn't want to live or die, I just wanted to follow the big brothers and sisters, and later our captain Su gave me a scientific name Zhang Shengli, which means that we will definitely win and defeat the little devils. In this way, I became the youngest member of the team, and the most cared for team member, since then my nickname Little Lock has never been shouted anymore, my brothers and sisters are all victorious and victorious, and I myself have gradually forgotten my former nickname.
After that, I moved to the north and south with the army, and my brothers and sisters taught me to read and write, rehearse dramas, skits, and write smooth and allegro books, and I grew up in the furnace of the army.
After the liberation, I also came back several times to inquire about the whereabouts of my family, and I heard from other villagers that everyone in our village had been beaten to death in a big ditch, and no one ran out. It was this time that I came back to the village to see Brother Zhang Zhuzi and Uncle Sheepbeard, who had gone out of our village before, and they also came back later, Brother Zhuzi joined the army, and Uncle Sheepbeard also hid outside for 30 years before moving back with a large family, Uncle Sheepbeard still remembered my nickname, and Brother Zhuzi forgot.
Screenwriter Zhang finished talking about his life-and-death parting fifty years ago in one breath, and how he had come over in the past fifty years, and Grandpa Zhang listened attentively, and his eyes were reluctant to leave his son's face that was no longer young for a moment.
After listening to this, Grandpa said, "No wonder when I first saw my brother, I felt very familiar, your walking posture and talking demeanor are really similar to my uncle." ”
Grandpa Zhang finally showed a little smile and said: "As soon as the little lock entered the door, I also thought how he was so similar to me when I was young, that is, he felt very close to me, and I have been paying attention, and I was still thinking at the time, if the little lock is still alive, at least sixty years away, look at this person at most fifty years old, the age is not right, who thinks that it is really my little lock." ”
Screenwriter Zhang said: "Dad, if it weren't for Xiaosi writing my nickname in Beijing, I wouldn't have found it here, we may have missed the opportunity to meet in this life, it's really a strange news in the world, Xiaosi is really a stranger and a master." When everyone looked for Uncle again, they found that there was no one.
Grandma and mother came in with two bowls of noodles at this time, and Zhang asked everyone to hurry up and eat something.
After eating, Grandpa Zhang said, "Go, little lock, tell your mother to go, and let her know that you are back." So, the grandparents also followed to Grandma Zhang's grave. The two of them were there with tears of sadness and joy, and finally Grandpa Zhang asked Screenwriter Zhang to bury his shoes next to his mother's tombstone.
Grandpa Zhang also drank a lot of wine in the evening, but he didn't show the slightest drunkenness, the old man who usually spoke little, that night was endless, he didn't talk much for decades, and the conversation box opened as if the words that were held in his stomach that night were poured to everyone.
That night, the grandfather didn't sleep all night, and the grandmother said that when she got up in the morning, she saw the lights in Mrs. Zhang's house on, and from time to time came out the voice of the grandfather's words, and after breakfast, the grandfather and their eyes were red, so they were persuaded by the grandfather to sleep all morning.
That morning, Kang Kang painted in the yard for a morning, the first one is uncle, the next three are screenwriters Zhang, each screenwriter Zhang has a different demeanor, they are all smiling, the last one is still slightly exaggerated, the smile of the boss with his mouth open, screenwriter Zhang saw what he liked, grandpa simply gave it to him, screenwriter Zhang was well-informed, said that the child's painting is very good, he can also help find a teacher, and said that the child's painting should have a seal, so that everyone can know who painted it. Grandpa said with a smile that the child is now practicing drawing, and it doesn't matter if there is a seal or not.
The last two are Grandpa Zhang, these two are also the best paintings, Kang Kang portrays the image of Grandpa Zhang vividly, every wrinkle on his face is almost exactly the same as that on Grandpa Zhang's face, Screenwriter Zhang took the portrait and compared it in front of his father, and said: "Dad, it's too similar, it's too similar." ”
On the third day, screenwriter Zhang insisted on taking his father back to Beijing, so that the old man could see his grandson and great-grandson, the old man was afraid that he would not be used to living in the noisy city, so screenwriter Zhang said: "Dad, let's go back and see, in the future, you can live wherever you want, I will be where you are, and we will never be separated in the future." ”
Grandpa Zhang's luggage was extremely simple, except for a change of clothes, there was almost nothing.
The grandfather's family has been sending the grandfather and the two to the gate, and the people in the village have long known that the old man has found his son, and several old people who are familiar with the old man have also come to see him off, and one of them has a good relationship with him. The old man who often chatted together said: "Brother Zhang, now you have a filial son who will give you a pot." ”
Grandpa Zhang smiled happily and said, "I, more than one son!"
Grandma looked at the car in the distance and muttered: "Tsk, this is the reunion of flesh and blood, but the separation time is too long, and most of my life has been spent in hard anticipation." Grandpa didn't speak, just looked into the distance, and a few tears quietly slipped out of his eyes.
Screenwriter Zhang took away his own father, and also took away his grandfather's father.
By the time I graduated from elementary school, my son and I were successfully admitted to middle school, and eleven of our batch of graduates entered the town No. 1 middle school except for the worst bean and the naughtiest National Day, and the two of them went to another middle school in the town.
The fifth uncle came back when I was on vacation, and Meimei was already able to call him 'Dad' immaturely, in Xiao Meimei's eyes. Can't distinguish the concept of 'dad' and dad, only think that 'dad' and uncle, aunt and brother and sister are just a part of the family, and when Meimei is a little more sensible, she understands that 'dad' and dad refer to the same person, in her heart, she is not very willing to call the fifth uncle father, thinking that only uncle and Yan Gu are her biological parents.
She once tried to call the fifth uncle like Dandan, and her grandmother told Meimei her story, and after Meimei knew her life experience, she blinked and looked at her grandmother with big eyes, as if asking her grandmother: Is it true?
Everyone in the family did not hide Meimei, and they all confirmed what her grandmother said, and Meimei herself finally called her fifth uncle 'Dad' again.
The fifth uncle hugged Meimei, overjoyed, and said to grandma: "Meimei is much more beautiful." ”
Grandma said, "Thanks to the good doctor you found." ”
Grandma then said: "Xiao Wu, in the future, you are no longer allowed to buy things at home with big bags and small bags, I know that what you buy is high-end things, you see that our family is not lacking anything, you are stronger than anything when you come back, and besides, your father and I are crop men, crop mothers, can't eat any ginseng, bird's nest, and can't get used to eating, you don't have a daughter-in-law now, save more money to find a good daughter-in-law, my mother is down-to-earth, don't buy things for the children too good, they are small, don't develop a bad habit of spending money." ”
The fifth uncle smiled and said, "Then I'll come back empty-handed?" I know what my mother means, just pay attention next time. ”
The fifth uncle already knew about Screenwriter Zhang, he looked at the uncle and said, "Mother, why do you say that the fourth brother is so magical? It seems that he knows everything, no matter how far away, no matter how long it takes, he knows it clearly, how did he do it?"
Grandma said, "Don't ask me, I'm also confused, if you want to ask, ask your fourth brother." "After saying that, I was happy first.
The fifth uncle just kept looking at the enigmatic uncle and stopped talking for a long time.
The fifth uncle is not shy about anything now, he is coming and going to my house in a bright and bright way, and the people in the village are talking about it after seeing it: Why is the little four family still involved with the big star? When did they become the little four brothers and the little five? All kinds of speculations have sprung up like mushrooms after a rain.
The fifth uncle has come back a lot, and there will still be young girls and guys to watch, and even take photos and sign autographs, and the fifth uncle has basically entered the ranks of big stars now.
