。

Everyone got into the car, and the car went around the small cement bridge of the Sandao River, and drove along the village road to the fort.

The three or four houses at the top have not changed much, just like Zhang Xingming's memory, they are still those grass houses, the yard with tree branches.

After these three, the change came out, there were few on the side of the road, at this time there were more red brick houses side by side, and the courtyard wall was also made of red bricks, which looked very tall in comparison.

Dad stared at the window tightly, and kept saying, "Change, change, I don't know whose house it is, I can't recognize it." ”

Zhang Xingming said to the driver: "Go forward and stop at the third place." ”

Mom asked, "Gaha."

Zhang Xingming said: "Uncle Qingge's family, my brother didn't talk much about going to school at that time, and he was still serving food every day, go and have a look, let people know that they don't have to enter the house from the gate." ”

My mother said, "Oh, his house, that has to go, I don't know, his house is here."

Dad didn't come back to the castle for seven or eight years, and Mom even longer, and never came back.

The car stopped, the family got out of the car, the house was still the same old house, and it hadn't changed at all, but Zhang Xingming just felt that it was different, and he couldn't say why.

Dad took the lead, the family walked to the uncle's house, Zhang Xingming said to the elder brother: "Brother, you can still remember that the meal at the uncle's house is not big and it is really fragrant, haha." ”

The elder brother also smiled and said, "Can you forget that Uncle Qingge really recognizes his relatives and really treats me as his own child." ”

The younger brother asked, "Then have I eaten meat here?"

Zhang Xingming said: "No, how old were you at that time, and you haven't been to Zhangjiabao a few times in total." ”

Walking to the middle of the yard, my father shouted loudly: "Big brother, are you at home" shouted a few times, the house responded sullenly, and as the door was pushed open from the inside, revealing the uncle's black and thin face, the people who saw a yard were stunned for a moment, and immediately laughed: "Oh! Qingzhi, oh, oh, why did you come back before, I haven't seen you for many years, come into the house, come into the house, come in, come back, Qingzhi's family is back." ”

The uncle is a dumb voice, and the Great Revolution was beaten in the cowshed, and his voice was broken.

"Ah, who's wrong" Auntie's voice sounded, and people also walked out from behind the door, patting the face on their hands while walking, and when they looked up, their mother said: "Mom, oh, Mom, Gui Xin, it's Gui Xin" The aunt's expression changed from surprise to excitement, her mouth was cheating, and tears were about to flow out, so she walked a few steps quickly, grabbed her mother's hand and said: "Oh, I really can't think of it, I really can't think of it, I thought you would never come back, how many years have you said." Why did you come back from this ago?"

Uncle Qingge said: "Go into the house, enter the house and say, it's strangely cold." ”

The eldest lady nodded hurriedly and said, "Yes, yes, enter the house, enter the house, I am patronizing and talking, come into the house." This is the army has changed, and it was still so big in front of my house. This is the second child, this has changed, the third is the first time I've seen it, how old is it?"

The younger brother said, "I'm 11." The eldest lady reached out and touched the little brother's head, slurped a few times, and dragged the mother to the house.

In the house, the eldest brother was lying on the kang and smoking, Xingliang was sitting on the edge of the kang and tinkering with something, and he heard the sound of people looking up. The eldest brother got up and sat on the edge of the kang and put on shoes, this is the rule, and when a visitor comes, he must look like a visitor.

Put on your shoes, and the eldest brother said to Xingliang: "Collect, there is no one left."

Xingliang glanced at the door, and reluctantly stuffed the things in his hand under the kang cabinet.

Here Uncle Qingge took his father's hand, and the eldest mother dragged his mother into the house together, Uncle Qingge said: "Big child, Xingliang, see if you still know each other"

Xingliang glanced at his father, shook his head, and the eldest child said, "Yes, my third uncle" He is older, remember people.

My father was happy and said, "Oh, after all these years, the eldest child can still remember me." ”

Uncle Qingge pulled his father to the kang and sat down, and said, "He also remembered people at that time, how old is this, my grandson is one year old." You two give your third uncle a New Year's greeting. The eldest child's face turned red and he greeted his parents for the New Year, and Xingliang also said hello.

Dad was surprised and said, "There are children in the warehouse, where do you live?"

The eldest lady said: "Just Westinghouse, this will go out, my daughter-in-law is alone in the house, I'll call it." "I went out in a hurry, but my mother didn't hold it.

A few minutes later, the eldest lady pulled the door and came in, followed by a girl about twenty years old, holding a sleeping child in her arms. At that time, people in the countryside got married early, and they generally got married in their twenties.

Mancang's daughter-in-law looked a little timid, and called timidly: "Third uncle, third aunt." He smiled at Zhang Xingming a few times, and then stopped squeaking.

The old mother stood up and looked at the child with her hand, a fat black man with long black and dense hair.

In this situation in the Northeast, it is not easy for men to approach, Uncle Qingge said: "Give your third aunt a hug, let the third uncle see." The little daughter-in-law obviously hesitated, but still handed the child to her mother, and the father stood up and looked at it and praised a few words.

The child was asleep, and the mother didn't hug it much, but the father saw it, and the younger brother went up to take a look at it, and returned the child to the daughter-in-law who was worried on the side.

Dad said: "Look at this matter, you didn't say to write a letter to us when you got married, why can't you come to this matter." If we don't come back, we won't even know that you are holding your grandson, brother, you are not doing this very well. ”

Uncle Qingge said: "I didn't think about it so much. All my dear buddies, pay attention to so many gaha, you are so far away, you are busy at work. ”

Dad turned back to Zhang Xingming and said, "Take some money." "Dad's habit for two lifetimes, he never had money on him, haha.

Zhang Xingming went to Kang Shao to get his backpack, took a stack of money from the backpack and handed it to his father.

Before he came, he had this preparation, the second uncle's family, the fourth uncle's family, the fifth uncle's family, the sixth uncle's place, and the uncle's family, the children had to give money, so he prepared thousands of yuan on his body, and put them in stacks of five hundred.

Dad took the money and said, "Take some more." Zhang Xingming handed out another stack, and the father put 500 yuan on the bag of his son, and said: "Uncle Marriage doesn't know, I don't know if I have a child, this is another big New Year, I will make up for you with one piece, don't be too little, which fort"

Mancang's daughter-in-law's face was flushed, she glanced at Uncle Qingge, and saw that the uncle was silent, so she said to her father: "Thank you, third uncle, my mother's family is a honey gourd." ”

Dad smiled and said, "Okay, live a good life, Mancang is also a good boy, and he will go to play at home when he goes to the city in the future." Mancang's daughter-in-law agreed.

The father took out two hundred more money in his hand, handed it to the eldest child and Xingliang, and said, "Come, the third uncle will give the New Year's money and use it to buy something to eat." The eldest child and Xingliang looked at Uncle Qingge with blank eyes, and the uncle said: "The third uncle will take it, and the uncle is polite." ”

Everyone laughed, and the eldest child and Xingliang took the money excitedly and bowed to their father: "Thank you, third uncle, thank you, third aunt." ”

The father said to Mancang's daughter-in-law: "Eldest daughter-in-law, it's tiring to hold the child, you go back to the house to rest, and come back when Mancang comes back." The eldest lady said on the side: "Okay, Xiaohua, you can take the child back to the house." The little daughter-in-law answered and went back to her house.

Uncle Qingge said: "It's good now, I'm still working in the factory."
