This essay topic was set by Qiao Nan for his son. On the night of the family reunion, the conversation also revolved around the little commander. When he got home in the evening, he returned to his and his wife's bedroom, and he said to his son a little drunk: "Classmate Qiao Bowen, when you go to elementary school, the first essay will be written "Grandpa's Bicycle"!"

The little commander just sat on the bed and played, and when his father talked to him, he would only make syllables like "Ah Da Ah Da", and I don't know if he understood it.

Qiao Nan fiddled with his son and asked him to speak well, not to send some monosyllables all day long, so that people didn't understand what it meant. Wen Jing criticized him, his behavior belongs to pulling seedlings to help him, and when he reaches the age when he should speak, the little commander must have learned it.

Qiao Nan also knows, but what is psychologically unbalanced is that his son can clearly call "Mom", can call "Yaya (grandpa)", and can also be called "neinei (grandma)", but refuses to call "Dad". I haven't seen him for a few months, and the little commander will definitely feel that his father is strange, so Qiao Nan didn't bother with him at first. However, when he tries to teach his son to shout "Daddy", he laughs mischievously at him or simply tilts his head to the side.

"Little rabbit, I'm your father, don't you recognize me?"

Wen Jing mocked him coldly for two or three sentences: "What have you done for your son, who is a father? ”

Although the family took good care of them, Qiao Nan paid too little after all, and it was normal for his wife to be resentful. Therefore, Qiao Nan didn't dare to defend himself, he just wanted to behave well during the reunion. His son is not close to him, but he is very clingy to his grandfather. Qiao Nan coaxed him for a long time, but he refused to sleep, so he had to ask Lao Qiao for help.

Old Qiao said proudly: "Don't look at you as a big official now, but coaxing the child, you are still not as good as me." ”

"Yes, you will always be my old-timer, and I have to learn from you. ”

Qiao Bowen, who is almost one year old, can no longer tell that he is a premature baby at all, and his white and chubby limbs also have "lotus roots", which makes people can't help but pinch it. He walked and talked faster than other children his age, and his father couldn't see him for many years, so much so that every time he saw him, he would be amazed - my son has grown so old, and how many skills has he learned?

Babies often have a sudden illness and have to go to the hospital in the middle of the night. But as a premature baby, he is too strong to speak, let alone hang in the emergency room in the middle of the night, in addition to vaccination, he goes to the hospital only a handful of times a year. Qiao Nan quipped: "I tossed the whole family enough in my mother's womb, but after I came out, I was relieved." ”

But Wen Jing gave all the credit to her in-laws, especially her father-in-law, if he hadn't changed his way to feed the little commander, how could he have grown so well?

Not to mention the little commander, even Wen Jing's complexion is much better. From pregnancy to childbirth, her body suffered a lot of losses, but after living in Qiao's house for nearly a year, she has recovered as before.

During the time when Wen Jing lived in Hong Kong City, Lao Qiao, who had never eaten foreign fast food a few times in his life, bought a bread machine for his daughter-in-law and learned to make egg tarts. Wen Jing never said that she wanted to eat "foreign breakfast", but Lao Qiao thought about it. Knowing that she was afraid of gaining weight and refused to eat dinner, he always thought of stewing some light soup, which was not only good for his health, but also would not gain weight, and he really put a lot of thought into it. Wen Jing secretly told her husband many times: "Although our dad has no money, he is really good to me, better than my own father to me." ”

In addition to being too strict with his son, Old Joe is famous for loving children. He said that when Wen Jing got married, that is, she had another daughter, and he really loved her as a daughter. Of course, he did not forget his two daughters in Beijing, when logistics were already very developed, and he sent them as soon as the seasonal fruits from his hometown came. As for the son...... Maybe it's really a grandson and a son.

After the little commander was weaned for the night, Li Lanzhi offered to let the little commander sleep with them, so that Wen Jing could sleep a little longer. Under the care of the two old men, the little commander was gradually able to sleep all night, and his body grew faster and faster. No wonder Wen Jing often jokes with her husband, saying that he lives with the country and the people, and she marries his family.

......

Well, for this conclusion, Qiao Nan is powerless to refute.

Old Joe is getting older, and he can't do business anymore, and a lot of things are handed over to Xiao Tong, and he spends a lot of time on his family. One day, he was tidying up the things in the basement, and wanted to sell all the scrap copper and rotten iron at home, so he moved out and moved out of the big golden deer bicycle in the corner.

The family has several bicycles, and my son has already bought a battery car. After these years, he is willing to change to a new battery car. So, how many years has this big golden deer not ridden? The year when he was laid off to start a business, or the year when his son went to college?

The car had been left for too long, the body was rusty, and the chain seemed to be mixed with a large handful of wood slag, which squeaked and couldn't turn. The neighbors who came and went joked with him, telling him not to sell it yet, maybe in two years he could sell it as an antique for a big price?

Lao Qiao said: "This car does take up space at home, but I am reluctant to sell it!"

Having said that, what's the use of keeping it? The tattered loudspeaker came from far and near, and he was just about to push the cart out of the compound, when Wen Jing pushed the stroller and came back with the little commander.

As soon as the little commander was walked, the whole person was super excited, and when he saw his grandfather, he opened his two hands and wanted his grandfather to hug him. Old Joe was full of joy and carried him out of the stroller, and the little commander pointed to the big golden deer and kept screaming "ah, ah".

"Little Commander, you have your 'BMW', this bicycle used to be Grandpa's 'BMW'. ”

"Ahh

"But grandpa, this car is useless, grandpa wants to sell it and buy you candy to eat, okay?"

The little commander actually shook his head.

Old Joe was puzzled: "You don't want grandpa to sell the car?"

"Ahh

The little commander stretched out his hand again, wanting to touch the rusty body. But it was too dirty, Lao Qiao hurriedly asked Wen Jing to take him away, and let him touch it when it was clean. Even if you sell it, you'll have to clean up the old guy, right?

But at the moment when Wen Jing took the child away, the well-behaved little commander came sideways. He looked at the golden deer as if it was his favorite toy, and he tried his best to prevent the adults from selling it.

It's really strange, a pampered big fat doll, who has never seen such an old thing, why is he so obsessed with it?

Old Joe thought it was amazing, so he said: "Grandpa won't sell it, wait for grandpa to buy a seat and come back, and turn this car into your BMW, okay?"

Only then did the little commander smile, clapped his hands and shouted. The next day, Joe wanted to buy a child seat from the market and install it on the back seat of his bicycle. These days, it's easy to buy a baby car seat to install in a car, but it's not so easy to buy a traditional bicycle seat. Lao Qiao wandered around and didn't buy it, so he had to ask his daughter-in-law for help. Wen Jing quickly found the seller on the Internet, she looked at the picture and said with a smile: "This really evokes childhood memories all of a sudden, I also rode my grandfather's bicycle when I was a child." ”

When the seat arrived, the body was wiped clean by Old Joe, the chain was re-oiled, and the big golden deer regained its vitality. Old Joe put his grandson in the seat, and the little commander flew up happily, making all kinds of strange noises, as if he was really in a BMW.

Old Joe was afraid of turning him upside down, so he pushed him to walk slowly. The little commander greeted the people in the alley, calmly, as if he was really a commander who had come to review. The neighbors also responded to him cooperatively, and said, "Commander, your grandfather is really ingenious, he can really find some objects for you to play with!"

Old Qiao smiled contentedly and walked slowly, those two wheels seemed to be the annual rings he had walked on. This big golden deer was the first luxury item he bought for himself after he was promoted to a small squad leader in the workshop. Thirty years ago, no matter whether it was cold or hot, he and his co-workers were riding bicycles in high spirits, running around all corners of this small city. The scene of "ten thousand horses galloping" is still boiling when I think about it. It was a difficult time, but it was also a beautiful time, and then he had a small seat in the back of the car, which was his son's exclusive seat. Sometimes the eldest daughter sits on the beam, and the son sits in the back, and he carries the two children, as if he is carrying all the hope in his life.

But there are also regrets, he searched in his mind for a long time, and he didn't remember the scene of his little daughter sitting in the chair. At a younger age than the little commander, she was sent to the countryside. When his youngest daughter was young, he was absent too much.

Time flies, the children on the bicycle have long grown up, and the big golden deer has also completed its mission and shrunk quietly in the corner. If it weren't for its wonderful fate with the Little Commander, perhaps it would have been at the scrapyard by now.

Lao Qiao pushed his bicycle to the mouth of the alley, and happened to meet Lao Dong who was cleaning the door, Lao Dong squinted his eyes, and he didn't even pay attention to the little commander greeting him.

"Lao Dong, are you okay?

Lao Dong rubbed his eyes and said, "It's okay, I thought it was Qiao Nan sitting in the back seat." ”

The little commander opened, and his eyebrows and eyes looked more and more like his father. In the light of the setting sun, his demeanor is exactly the same as his father's.

The afterglow of the setting sun gilded this place with a layer of luster of old photos, and Lao Qiao was also a little confused, for a while, time and space were staggered, and his son and grandson were stupidly unable to tell the difference. Is it 2014 AD, or 1986?

But Wen Jing thought the picture was very good, and she took this photo with her mobile phone - Lao Qiao pushing a bicycle, and his grandson sitting in the back seat, behind them, is the sign of "Auspicious Wonton House".

There are too many photos of the little commander to count, but Wen Jing loves this one alone. She said to her husband more than once: "If I had stayed in the past, I would have never understood what 'family happiness' was, but at that moment, I completely understood...... Although I still can't express it. ”

Qiao Nan is not as emotional as his wife, but he is obviously also very touched. He thought, isn't the so-called 'family happiness' the inheritance of the past and the present, connected by blood?
