Chapter 109: Uncle Ball

On New Year's Day, the second brother-in-law's family came back, and the military brother, who was already in high school, looked more and more like the second brother-in-law, with a similar figure and personality, and even his talking and walking posture were vivid.

The second brother-in-law was not in a high mood, and the grandfather asked what was wrong, and the second brother-in-law said: "Dad, it's not a big deal, maybe the nature of the work has changed since returning to the place from the army, and I am a straight person, and I haven't changed for a while, and I am not very suitable for local work, especially in terms of interpersonal relations, so I will inevitably be unhappy, and it will be good to adapt to it for a while." ”

Grandpa knew the personality of the second brother-in-law, and thought: It's been so long since I've been back, and I'm still not used to it?

Grandpa didn't ask any more deeply, knowing that he wouldn't say it if he asked, and he would say it when he should say it, grandpa believed in the second brother-in-law's personality, so he didn't worry about what would happen to him.

The third aunt came with a meal, and today she and Wenwen came, saying that the third aunt didn't come back for the holiday on a business trip.

A group of children had a new playmate, so they naturally had a lot of fun, and Kang Kang raised a pair of small hands and shouted Wenwen: Auntie!

Now he's learned to be coquettish.

The second aunt said to her grandmother: "How many times has Yan'er had a prenatal checkup? A friend of mine has just mentioned the attending doctor in the city maternity and child hospital, and I think it is better for Yan'er to go to the city for examination, after all, the doctor in the city hospital is better, so as to ensure that nothing goes wrong." ”

The third aunt said: "This is the best, mother, I will drive with me when the time comes." ”

After hearing this, Aunt Yan was still embarrassed to say: "Second sister, it's too troublesome, I still checked well in our town." ”

The third aunt said: "Yan'er listens to my sister. You are now the focus of our family's protection, and you must take precautions and ensure safety. ”

A few days after the festival, the first day was gloomy in the afternoon, and the small north wind blew all night, and I don't know when it will be in the middle of the night.

In the morning, it was still not very heavy, but in the morning the snow flakes were getting bigger and denser, and the ground was only a thin layer of snow, but by noon it was already thick.

Grandpa looked at the snowflakes fluttering outside the window and said, "Ruixue is a good year, it seems that this year's harvest is not bad." ”

Just when my mother and grandmother, who didn't go up the mountain, were busy with lunch in the kitchen, someone knocked on the gate of the courtyard, and shouted, "Is this Xiaosi's home?"

When the grandmother and the mother heard it first, the grandmother looked at the mother's hands and said, "I'll go and see." ”

When my grandmother went out, I saw my grandfather also coming out of the back room. Wearing a big cotton jacket, he was about to come out and open the door.

Grandpa opened the courtyard gate and was greeted by a strange sight: a half-grown 'child' was a little more than a meter tall and wearing a cotton hat. Wearing a thick cotton coat, he also carried a burden not much shorter than him, his face, eyebrows, and nose were covered with snowflakes, and he only saw the white smoke exhaled from his nose.

Next to him was a wolfdog who would be taller than him if he stood up, and also carried a small burden that he carried cross-body, also covered in snowflakes, and stuck out his tongue and emitted white smoke.

In the snow behind him were a long pair of footprints and four paw prints, all the way from the door of the house to the far entrance of the village.

Grandpa hurriedly said, "Come in, come in." ”

Over the years, the grandfather has seen a lot of all kinds of characters in the family, and now he doesn't even ask who to look for, and he just goes home first to speak, not to mention that it is snowing outside now. It's just that grandpa wondered if he didn't see the adult, the adult who spoke just now? Could it be him?

The half-grown 'child' who came spoke again, still in the same mature voice. This time, grandpa heard it clearly, and it was still a little different from the adult voice, and it was mixed with a child's voice: "Uncle, is this the home of the little four?"

Grandpa replied yes, not before grandpa said anything. The person who came said quickly: "Oh Mom, I can be regarded as walking to your house, and I am tired of this journey." "An authentic northeastern accent.

Grandpa hurriedly said: "Then hurry into the house, and say slowly, how did you get such a big snow?"

The person who came said to the big dog: "Daji, hurry up and fix the snow on your body, let's not go into the house dirty." ”

The big wolf dog named 'Daji' obediently twisted his body and shook off most of the snowflakes on his body before raising his legs and following his master inside.

When they arrived at the door of the house, the half-grown 'child' said to 'Daji': "I'll help you unload your burden, so stay at the door and don't scare the family." ”

The obedient 'Daji' let him unload his burden, and suddenly lay at the door.

The visitor entered the door, he neatly smoothed down the burden, and the grandfather wanted to help him, he said: "Uncle, you don't need to help me, I'm used to it, just put the burden at the door, I'm afraid of getting wet all the way." ”

Grandpa said, "Put it on the kang inside, and dry it too." The visitor replied, "No, there is still a plastic sheet wrapped in it, so the wrapper skin is wet and it will not get in the way." ”

When he raised his face again and took off his cotton hat, his grandfather saw his appearance clearly, it was a mature face that could not be more mature, and his appearance should be around fifty years old, full of wrinkles, unshaven beard, unkempt, a weathered red and purple face, and after taking off the hat, he revealed a head of gray hair with more white and less black.

The body is disproportionate to the head, the head is large, the body is short, the limbs are short, much thicker than a child of similar size, and there are a bit of 'looped legs' when walking.

The visitor was very talkative: "Uncle, don't dislike it, I took the liberty of coming home." ”

Grandpa smiled and said: "Don't say kind words, everyone who comes is a guest, and our family is not the inner courtyard of the palace, anyone can come." ”

After the visitor sat on the small bench, he looked at the children in the room looking at him with strange eyes, and first made a kind grimace at the children, which amused the children, and said, "Uncle has come to show you a show, do you want to watch it?"

The children shouted, "I want to see it!", but Kang Kang shouted: "Brother!", which means that you are an elder brother and not an uncle. The visitor squeezed his eyebrows at Kangkang, and Kangkang smirked.

Grandpa smiled slightly, but muttered in his heart: Which one did he sing?

came unhurriedly, and confessed to his grandfather with a smile:

Uncle, I am a native of the Northeast, my hometown is in Changchun, my parents are also disabled like me, as the saying goes, dwarfism, they are actors in a small drama troupe, and they perform outside all the year round, I have followed them since I was a child, and I died one after another when I was less than twenty years old, and I lived with the old class owner. Performance, during the period learned a lot of skills, the old class owner to me is not thin, treat me like their own child, our troupe is not big, just seven or eight people, there is no fixed stage, initially mainly in the Northeast performance, and then began to run all over the country to perform, where there are more people to go, the year before last also came to our Zaohu Resort, here for a week.

When performing here, I have seen your little four, I have heard about his strange things, I have seen more and more, such a magical thing as the little four is the first time I have heard of it, and I am also very curious, once while there is no performance, I also joined in the fun to go to the door of your small shop to see the little four, I don't know much and don't plan to see the little four write, I want to see this legend up close. But when I got near, he smiled at me, as if he had seen me come to me, and then he wrote me four words, and I didn't know much of it, but I knew only one word of 'yes', and then I touched the back of my head and said to myself: What are these three words?

It's very strange, I suddenly had a voice in my head that seemed to be read by myself: This is your home! I read it several times in a row, and I memorized these words in my head, and I stayed for a while knowing that it was almost time to perform, so I went back to the lawsuit, and when the performance was over, I wrote these four words one by one to my sister, and I wrote it crookedly, and the order of the strokes was not quite right, and my sister guessed for a long time before saying: It seems to be: This is your home.

I was blindsided all of a sudden, and my sister asked me how I could write? I told my sister, but she didn't believe or understand.

When leaving, the senior sister said that she also went to see Xiaosi, and she didn't see Xiaosi write to her, and the senior sister said: Does Xiaosi mean that this is your home?

I didn't know, so I left in a daze, but I remembered this place in my heart, and I specifically inquired about the address of your home when I left.

In the past six months, I feel that my body is a little unbearable, and after performing a show, my bones are like falling apart, and I am so tired that I am panting, I think that my father and my mother are not in their forties, maybe people with a body like us are too old to live? I thought of the words given to me by Xiaosi, and I had the idea of quitting the group, and I wanted to live for a few more years, and no longer go in the wind and rain.

After my sister knew my thoughts, several of our brothers got together and drank a lot, cried in the dark, and before leaving, my sister gave me a card, saying that here is the money I have saved for me for so many years, and I originally wanted to tell me a daughter-in-law, but I have never met the right one.

I said, forget it, what is the inheritance, my family connections will end with me, don't let the next generation suffer.

I also put forward an idea to take Daji away, and my senior sister agreed.

Daji was originally two brothers, and his younger brother Dali got sick and died the year before last, and I raised them all from a young age, and Daji is also older, and I have been with me for nine years, and I am reluctant.

We broke up with my sister two months ago, and took Daji's family not to let me take the train and car, so I inquired all the way and took a ride to our house, or there were many kind-hearted people, I hitchhiked more than half of the way, walked a little half, and hurried to get home early.

Oh yes, uncle, I forgot to tell you my name, this is my ID card, my stage name in the team is 'Ball', because I always perform on stage, rolling around like a ball, and then everyone shouted.

After listening to the words of 'Pi Qiu', the grandfather looked at his ID card and said, "You don't have any other relatives in your family?"

'Piqiu' saw that his grandfather had the intention of keeping him, so he said: "Uncle, my family has no relatives, and even the house of my old family was sold by me when the team was not having a good time in the early years. ”
