Chapter 247: Zhao Yiyi's Story
Su Chen would go back to his hometown because his father urged him to come back, saying that there was something important for him to do.
So when Su Chen came home and slept for a while, early the next morning, he was pulled by his father to get into the third uncle's car and go to a place.
After getting in the car, Su Chen found that he was not only a junior in the car, except for those cousins and cousins who were already working, all of them who went to school were in the car.
There are three cars in total, plus the uncle and the third uncle, there are more than a dozen people.
"Didn't your uncle go to Lingshan some time ago, and met a person on the mountain, an old acquaintance, who is also a great benefactor of our family. ”
In the car, Su Chen listened to his father's explanation, and knew why the whole family was mobilized so together this time.
When his grandfather was still alive, he studied with the Taoist priest in the village when he was a child, and he was literate and wrote a good calligraphy.
Because there were not many people in the village who had read and could write at that time, my grandfather was assigned to the village to be an accountant, but unfortunately there was a famine later, and my grandfather's salary was not high, so he couldn't support my father and uncle.
In addition, because my grandfather was the eldest and there were several younger brothers below, my grandfather left early, the eldest brother was the father, and the grandfather was for the whole family, so he partnered with another accountant in the village at that time, forged some chapters, and got some more daily necessities and food from the town's supply and marketing cooperative.
After this matter was discovered by the above, originally my grandfather was also going to prison, but another person carried it down, and did not confess my grandfather, the reason why he did not confess my grandfather is very simple, my grandfather has a family and some younger brothers to take care of, if he goes in, the whole family will be ruined.
That one, but it was a bachelor, he didn't care, he carried everything down alone.
"The seventh uncle is the benefactor of our family, if there is no him, your grandfather is arrested, then our whole family is finished, your grandfather in this life before leaving, the most guilty thing in my heart is that I failed to find the seventh uncle, the communication at that time was not as convenient as now, your seventh uncle came out of prison and disappeared. ”
"At the beginning, your grandfather explained before leaving, you must find the seventh uncle, if the seventh uncle is still alive, you must treat the seventh uncle as a parent, if the seventh uncle is gone, then the descendants of the seventh uncle should also be more helpful, and return this kindness. ”
Hearing his father's words, Su Chen understood it, he had heard his father mention it several times about his grandfather's affairs back then, but for the seventh uncle, he only knew that there was such a person, and he had never seen it.
"There are not many people who have seen the seventh uncle, not even your third uncle, when the seventh uncle was arrested, your third uncle was only six years old, and fortunately your uncle was already fourteen years old at that time, otherwise we juniors really can't remember. ”
For this seventh uncle, Su Chen is still very grateful, in that era, if his grandfather was arrested, the uncle was only fifteen years old, and there was a sick wife to take care of, at that time, his father was only ten years old, plus the six-year-old third uncle, the whole family would be completely collapsed.
However, to Su Chen's surprise, he actually met Zhao Yiyi, although he knew that Zhao Yiyi was also from Lingshan Town, but a town is so big, how could it be so coincidental.
When Zhao Yiyi saw Su Chen, she was also distracted for a while, she also didn't expect to meet Su Chen, early this morning, Grandpa Liu asked her to go to the town to buy some good dishes and come back, saying that there would be guests coming to the door today, and they should be entertained well, and they also specially took the wild boar meat that was just hunted a few days ago from the neighbor's house.
"Uncle Seven, this is my son, this is the second son, this is the third daughter......"
Su Chen watched the uncle introduce them to the juniors one by one, and Su Chen's juniors also greeted the old man very respectfully, the old man was already in his eighties, and his legs and feet were a little unfavorable, but his spirit was still very good.
"You kowtow to Uncle Seven. ”
Uncle Su Chen, Su Jun, looked at his juniors, his expression was very serious, and when the old man heard this, he hurriedly waved his hand: "No, no." ”
"Uncle Seven, you have to do this salute, if it weren't for you back then, maybe our three brothers would starve to death, where are they, they have to kowtow on this head." ”
Su Jun said very seriously, and what he said was also true, people at that time were still very simple, and they were very disgusted with criminals, if Su Chen's grandfather was arrested, then Su Chen's father and three brothers would not have a good time in the village, let alone marry a wife and have children, it would be difficult to live.
"Uncle Seven, don't stop it, let them kowtow to you, juniors, don't you hurry up. ”
Dad Su glared at Su Chen, Su Chen smiled, knelt on the ground respectfully, and kowtowed three times to the old man. If this scene is seen by people in the metaphysical world, it is estimated that it will shock a large number of people.
Su Chen, who turned the entire Heavenly Master's Mansion upside down, actually kowtowed to an ordinary old man, and he would not believe it if he didn't see it with his own eyes.
"It's all good boys, get up, get up, and sit in the yard. ”
With the support of Zhao Yiyi, the old man led everyone into the courtyard, the so-called yard is piled up with yellow mud and some gravel, there are many wild beasts in the mountains, which is used to prevent some wild beasts.
The seventh uncle sat down on a chair in the courtyard, Su Chen and the elders chatted with the old man, while Zhao Yiyi went to the kitchen to cook the meal, in addition to Zhao Yiyi, there was also the seventh uncle's wife.
"Seventh uncle, is this your son?"
Sitting in the courtyard, next to the seventh uncle sat a smirking middle-aged man, from the expression of the middle-aged man, the people present could see that this should be a brain problem, to put it bluntly, either a fool or mentally retarded.
"No, this is my next-door neighbor's house, hey, it's also bitter to talk about this child. ”
The seventh uncle pointed to a house outside the courtyard, which was also an earthen house, very dilapidated, if it weren't for the couplet posted at the door, no one would believe that the house was still inhabited.
"The old man next door left early, leaving two brothers to depend on each other, speaking of which these two brothers are also hard, when the elder brother has to be a father to pull the younger brother to grow up, and he has to think about starting a family for the younger brother, but in the case of their family, after finding a daughter-in-law for the younger brother, it is difficult to find a daughter-in-law when the elder brother. ”
From the words of the seventh uncle, Su Chen finally knew the situation of Zhao Yiyi's family.
Zhao Yiyi's uncle assumed the role of the eldest brother like a father, and married a wife to Zhao Yiyi's father, that is, Zhao Yiyi's mother, but after Zhao Yiyi's mother gave birth to Zhao Yiyi, she couldn't stand the suffering in the village and had to leave, Zhao Yiyi's father didn't agree, and when Zhao Yiyi's mother left, the two pulled, and Zhao Yiyi's father accidentally fell and hit his head, and then his head was a little abnormal.
With such a younger brother with an abnormal head in the family, and a niece who is only two or three years old, it is even more difficult for Zhao Yiyi's uncle to find a wife, and Zhao Yiyi's uncle did not look for it, looking for some rough work in the village, taking his younger brother and niece.
"Seeing it, Yiyi is almost an adult, and the boss of the Zhao family can enjoy Qingfu, after all, Yiyi is a filial child, but who would have thought that when Yiyi was admitted to college and went to college, the boss of the Zhao family suddenly failed, got sick, advanced stomach cancer, and the doctor said that it was caused by long-term consumption of some expired food. ”
When the old man said this, his eyes were a little wet, "The boss of the Zhao family left all the delicious food for his younger brother and niece, and he himself often has a can of bean curd and sour cabbage, where can I eat this thing all the time." ”
Later, the eldest of the Zhao family found me, and he begged me, hoping that he could help him take care of his younger brother after he left, and wait until Yiyi graduated from college and found a stable job, and then pick up the second child of the Zhao family. ”
"I promised the boss of the Zhao family, as long as I am alive for a day, I will not let the second child of the Zhao family starve, so after the boss of the Zhao family went, the second child of the Zhao family lived with me, although he was a little unclear, but he also knew who was good to him, once I was walking in the village, accidentally fell, it was he who helped me up and sent me to the clinic in the village, otherwise my old bones, it is estimated that it will be gone, and you will not see me. ”
After the old man said this, he picked up a piece of candy on the table and handed it to the second child of the Zhao family, who smiled stupidly, took it and tore the bag first, and then handed it to the old man.
"Eat...... Eat. ”
"I don't eat, I can't bite my teeth, you can eat yourself. ”
After listening to the words of the seventh uncle, Su Chen looked at Zhao Yiyi, who was busy in the kitchen, and sighed in his heart, this little girl is really not easy, but fortunately, she has a good uncle and a good neighbor.
"The second child is not really stupid, sometimes his mind is still very clear, the doctor said that he has a brain injury and stimulation, and there is a possibility of recovery, so Yiyi This child has been looking for her mother all these years, and wants her mother to come back, maybe her father will be cured after seeing her mother. ”
"This child is also a miserable life, said that she would take her father to live in the city, but I stopped her, and I took care of the second child in the village, and went to the city, the little girl has just graduated, how much salary can she have, and where will she get the time to take care of the second child, and if you let others know that she has such a father, it will also delay her falling in love. ”
When Uncle Su Chen heard this, the three brothers made eye contact, and finally Uncle Su Chen Su Jun spoke: "Seventh Uncle, otherwise, you and he will go to our side, and we will take care of you, you and Aunt Seventh are also old, and it is always inconvenient to stay here." ”
