Luo Xiangdong also lived in this village for a few years when he was a child, but he was only a few years old when he left, and he didn't remember much of it, but he remembered that there was a fifth uncle, who was two years younger than his father, who hugged him when he was a child and bought him candy to eat. At that time, there were too few opportunities to eat snacks, so he still had a little impression and remembered that others called the fifth uncle Rodeson.

The car drove slowly on the village road, and Luo Xiangdong pointed to the old elm tree on the edge of the intersection in front of him and said, "It should be here, the fifth uncle's house was on this street back then." I still remember this elm tree, when I was a child, as soon as spring dawned, there were children who went up to the tree to get elm money to eat, and I still have an impression.

Ye Xiaochi listened to it and said with a smile, "Uncle, why are you so impressed by the food?"

Luo Xiangdong also felt a little ruined image, and he forgot everything else, but he still remembered it related to eating......

Or Zuo Yucheng relieved him, "When I was a child, I didn't have anything delicious, I was greedy, what is this?"

They were about to turn the corner, but they heard a sudden roar of engines coming from the middle of the street. Accompanied by the rumbling sound and the billowing dust, although the place where the dust was raised could be dozens of meters away from them, and there was a house partition in the middle, but because the dust was raised high, it could still be seen clearly.

The three men got out of the car, closed the door, and stood at the intersection to look out into the street, where they saw a group of people dressed in work clothes, blue hats that covered their shoulders, showed only their eyes, and had brims. Although Zuo Yucheng had never seen this kind of hat, he could also see that these people were threshing rice.

The rice threshing machine is placed outside the brick wall of a house, and more than 20 people are busy outside the family, and a few people are responsible for transporting the rice on the straw stack to the rice threshing machine, and there are special threshing people who pick up the bundles of rice, and put the side with the ears of rice against the rapidly rotating rice threshing machine, and the rice grains on the rice bales are taken away by the machine and sent to an exit of the machine, where several people are busy bagging the rice grains that continue to pour out.

Ye Xiaochi said, "They all blocked the road, the car can't drive over, and besides, the ash over there is too big, so it's better to find someone here to inquire." “

At this time, a hunchbacked old man on crutches slowly clinged to the side of the road, holding a plastic bag containing loose cigarettes in his hand. Luo Xiangdong politely stopped the old man and asked him about Luo Sheng's whereabouts.

But the old man saw that someone was talking to him, so he leaned one ear over, and after listening to the words, he asked in a loud voice, "Who do you ask?"

"Rodson. ”

"What is Luo?" the old man repeated with a frown, before he could understand. Luo Xiangdong was helpless, and said it twice, but he still didn't understand. Ye Xiaochi took out the notepad and ballpoint pen he carried with him and wanted to write it for the old man. The old man hurriedly waved his hand, "I don't know how to read." ”

Seeing this, Zuo Yucheng said, "Oh, that's okay, let's ask someone else." When he had finished speaking, he politely motioned to the old man to take care of himself.

The old man understood his gesture, and seemed to be a little annoyed that he just couldn't understand it.

Zuo Yucheng planned that no one would come over, so he would go to the house where the rice was harvested and ask, the gray would be bigger, and it would be a big deal to go back to the hotel and take a bath.

It happened that the old man met someone on the road, so he stopped the man and said, "Shengzi, you go up there and have a look, there are a few people over there, I want to inquire about the surname Luo, I don't understand what Luo is called." Oh, son, aren't you just surnamed Luo? They're not looking for you, are they?"

The more the old man thought about it, the more he felt that the pronunciation of those people just now seemed to be asking Rodson.

"Oh, uncle, I'll go over and take a look, you go back first, go slowly." "Rodeson no longer lives on this street, but has built another brick house on the edge of the village and lives with his younger son, and the homestead on this street is given to the eldest son, and the family that threshes rice today is his eldest son.

He originally said that he wanted to help with the rice, but his son said that he didn't need him, just a few acres of rice planted on his own land, and he and his daughter-in-law took turns with several families to help each other, but he still couldn't be idle.

Luo Sheng listened to the old man's words, and was not busy going to his eldest son's house, he had a breath certificate in the first two years, and even if he went to his son, he would only let him stand and see from a distance, and he couldn't stand the gray.

After he passed, he glanced at Zuo Yucheng and the others hastily, and soon fixed his gaze on Luo Xiangdong's face.

He heard Luo Xiangdong and them talking to him, but he didn't answer immediately, he looked at Luo Xiangdong's face again, and then asked, "You guys, what do you have to do with Luo Dingwei?"

As soon as Zuo Yucheng heard it, they knew that they had found an acquaintance, judging from the age of this person, as long as he had lived here, he should know Luo Dingwei.

"I am his son. Hearing Luo Xiangdong say this, Luo Sheng took a deep breath, and then said, "I didn't expect to see the third brother's family?"

"Yes, I'm Luo Xiangdong. After saying this, Luo Xiangdong looked at the old man carefully, and then asked hesitantly, "You, you won't be the fifth uncle, right?"

Luo Sheng listened to it and felt very happy, "If you are the son of the third brother, you should call me the fifth uncle, I still remember what you looked like when you were a child, as soon as you catch a cold in winter, you will clear your nose at every turn, suck it back, come out again after a while, and then suck it back." Your sister takes you to play every day, and when she looks at it, she takes a handkerchief to help you clean it. ”

Ye Xiaochi looked at her uncle, Luo Xiangdong was so embarrassed, how could this old man remember this matter? Can't he remember him......

Luo Shengsheng is tall and has a big skeleton, they were very happy to see Luo Xiangdong, but after saying a few words and asking, he learned that Luo Dingwei had been dead for almost twenty years, so he sighed again and again, and said, "Hey, the third brother, his body has always been bad, I didn't expect him to go so early." ”

Then he asked Luo Xiangdong what his sister and brother were doing, Luo Xiangdong told him that he was now repairing antique furniture in the antique shop, and the old man heard it and said, "That's very powerful, I heard my old son say that those old antiques can be sold for a lot of money." It's amazing to be able to fix that, it's amazing. Oh, speaking of this, I remembered that our village is going to build a furniture factory now, and I heard that those furniture are made in the style of ancient furniture. It's a coincidence to say this, do you know where the factory is?"

When Ye Xiaochi heard this, his heart jumped, and he felt that this matter was only a coincidence, maybe the factory was built on the old site of the photo left by his grandfather, if this was the case, how would they dig it! If it was in a place where there was no one in the mountains and forests, they could find an opportunity to quietly go over and try it. What if you are really in the place where the factory is built?
