Chapter 3: Returning Home

Liu Tiange took Liu Shulin back to his hometown, their hometown is actually in a village in the TH mountain area, when Liu Shulin was pushed home by Liu Tiange in a wheelchair, some elderly people in the village came to greet Liu Shulin, looking at the change of hometown and scenery has been very different from the appearance in his memory, and the only thing that remains unchanged is the breath of hometown, he is finally back, after a long absence of more than 50 years of hometown, he is finally back.

"Hey, woods, you remember me!" said an old man with completely gray hair and a wrinkled face.

"Are you ......" Liu Shulin recalled, he looked at the gray-haired old man in front of him, he always looked familiar, but he just couldn't remember.

"I'm Sanjo!" said the old man, anxiously.

"Three strips, Wang Sanshun!" Liu Shulin really shouted.

"That's right!" said the old man with a smile.

", you kid is still alive, although it's a bit strange to say that, but it's really good, Sanjo, are there anyone else I know?" Liu Shulin said happily.

"Aren't they all, Huzi, Ergou, Big Radish, Wang Bake......" Wang Sanshun said as he pointed to the old people behind him.

"What about Li Si, the big guy, Wang Xin, and the monkey?" asked Liu Shulin.

"This ......" Wang Sanshun was silent at this time.

"What's wrong?" asked Liu Shulin.

"You count, it's just a dozen of us, by the way, and Li Si, but he's almost going to report now. Sanjo said at this time.

"Can I go see him?" Liu Shulin said at this time.

"I think you should go to the ancestral tomb to pay respects when you come back, then have a lunch we prepared for you, and then go to see him in the afternoon!" Wang Sanshun said.

"That makes sense!" Liu Shulin said.

"We've already prepared the paper money for you, Tiange, take your grandfather to the ancestral tomb!" Wang Sanshun looked at Liu Tiange and said.

"Got it. Liu Tiange said.

The ancestral grave of Liu Tiange's family, in a wheat field at the foot of TH Mountain, when Liu Tiange brought Liu Shulin here, Liu Shulin couldn't hold back anymore, stood up desperately from the wheelchair, and then hugged his father's tombstone and cried, Liu Tiange stood aside, watching this scene, his heart couldn't help but feel a little sour, sometimes parting may be a lifetime thing.

After a while, Liu Tiange took out the paper money from his bag and said, "Grandpa, it's up to you to get some of it!"

"Okay, good!" Liu Shulin walked to the tombstone with difficulty, took the lighter in Liu Tiange's hand, and then lit the pile of paper money in front of him.

"Father, my son came to see you, my brother, my brother came to see you, you are all right over there, I know I was very sorry for you before, I really hope you can scold me, I am not a filial son, nor is I a responsible brother, but I really want to see you again now, even if it is just ......one side" Saying this, Liu Shulin couldn't hold back his tears again, and Liu Tiange also looked elsewhere......

At noon, the villagers in the village, in order to celebrate Liu Shulin's return to his hometown, deliberately set up several tables of banquets in Liu Shulin's old yard, Liu Shulin specially invited the men, women and children of the whole village, even the village chief and village party secretary also came, they could not help but come, because Liu Shulin came here before the funds to build a hope primary school, to solve the difficulties of the children in the whole village to run away to school, but also to improve their own performance, for a while, the villagers in the village have come to thank Liu Shulin, and for him to send him a gift that his family can get, Liu's small courtyard, after many years of silence, has vitality againLooking at the small objects placed in his old house, Liu Shulin's sense of belonging was greatly satisfied at this time.

In the afternoon, Liu Shulin, Wang Sanshun and others went to see Li Si together, at this time, Li Si was paralyzed and lying on the bed, but his mind was still sober.

"You... You are... Woods?" Li Si said weakly at this time.

"Yes, fourth, it's me, I'm coming to see you. Liu Shulin said.

"Looks like your body is failing. Li Si saw Liu Shulin's wheelchair and said.

"yes, we're all going to report on it. Liu Shulin held Li Si's hand and said.

"Woods, is Taiwan okay?"

"It's... Okay, good, it's all open now, and we can come back whenever we want to come back in the future!"

"That's... Li San: Why... Didn't come back?" asked Li Si.

"Your brother, he...... He now manages several large enterprises, hundreds of people waiting for him to feed, and he can't leave. Liu Shulin lied this time, because Li San fell ill in 1986 and died.

"It's good that he's doing well, when he left, I wanted to take some of the family's money, but I didn't let him take a dime, now that I think about it, I really regret it, I didn't expect this to be almost 70 years, 70 years, I really miss him..."

"Li Si, he said that he will come to see you soon, so you must live, you know, you must give Lao Tzu a life!" Liu Shulin said holding Li Si's hand.

"Woods, I... Come on... You thing, you must... Promise me. Li Si said.

"What's the matter, just say it!" Liu Shulin said.

"Under my bed, there is a small wooden box, which is my life savings, and this dilapidated house, after I leave, you will sell him, and then take the money to Li San!" Li Si said.

"What about you and your children?" Liu Shulin said.

"The children are all grown up and have their own family businesses, so I am not lacking in this. Liu Shulin said.

"Uncle Liu, since my father has said so, you can take it! Li Si's eldest son Li Hongguang said.

"yes, you can take it. The second daughter Li Haixia said.

"Okay, then I'll take it! Don't worry, I will definitely bring this money and Li Si's apology to your brother!" Liu Shulin said with a smile.

"Thank you, thank you, Shulin!" Li Si kept thanking Liu Shulin.

Coming out of Li Si's family, Liu Shulin's mood was unusually heavy, because what happened to Li Si's family was so similar to himself, both of them were for themselves without considering their brother's feelings and were pressed by guilt all their lives.

"You just lied. After coming out, Liu Tiange whispered to Liu Shulin.

"Yes, I did. Liu Shulin nodded and said.

"But why are you panicking?" asked Liu Tiange puzzled.

"I'm not lying, he will feel guilty for the rest of his life, let him spend his last time with peace of mind, I will give you this money, Tiange, when he is gone, you can give it to his descendants." Liu Shulin said.

Liu Tiange nodded and didn't say anything.
