The Year (11)

Yin Changtian stretched out his hand to help the fourth master, "Get up quickly." Get up. ”

The fourth master took Yin Changtian's hand and got up, "All these years, are you okay?"

"Okay, good!" Yin Changtian kept looking the fourth master up and down, as if he couldn't believe it.

"I said Lao Yin, hurry up and tell the children to come in. It's cold outside. The man helped carry the bag and carried the man inside.

The house is not big, but it is still divided into inside and outside. There are kang inside and outside. It's spacious for one person. But even this room is cold enough. It's like an ice cellar.

Yin Changtian looked at Lin Yutong as if he had just discovered Lin Yutong, and then turned his head to look at the fourth master, "This is ......"

"It's my son's daughter-in-law. When you are old, you get married. "The fourth master said very calmly.

Lin Yutong was thick-skinned and hurriedly said hello.

"Good boy. Yin Changtian patted the fourth master on the shoulder, "Sit down, let's sit first." ”

The one who led the way said, "I'll have someone bring you some food in a moment." It's not easy for a child to come all the way. I've got firewood over there, so I'll bring it to you. ”

Lin Yutong hurriedly took out a bottle of Erguotou, "Uncle take it." Didn't bring anything good with me. Don't be disgusted. ”

It's not easy to buy these days.

The man rubbed it in his arms, "Don't dislike it, don't dislike it." It's a good thing, and I haven't smelled alcohol for years. ”

The fourth master hurriedly smiled and said, "At that moment, my uncle will come over to eat together, and we will have a drink." ”

Yin Changtian smiled and said, "Your name is Uncle Zeng." Over the years, I have been in charge of us people, but I am not particularly sad. ”

The fourth master hurriedly got up and bowed to this great-uncle, "Thank you!"

Uncle Zeng hurriedly let go, "What is this for? As he spoke, he gave Yin Changtian a thumbs up, as if praising him for raising a good son.

"I won't disturb you two talking. We're going to have a long way to go. So saying, he went back with the wine.

There is a small stove in this house, and if you boil water and cook often, it will not be cold in this house. But looking at this, Yin Changtian is definitely not a person who often cooks.

Not even firewood. There was only a little firewood and grass and three or five firewoods at the door.

Lin Yutong added water to the pot first, and was about to make a fire. Yin Changtian hurriedly said: "I'll come, I'll come, you all rest." ”

"Sit down, Father. The fourth master hurriedly stopped, "Tell her to clean up." He said so, but he still brought the firewood to Lin Yutong first.

The house was adobe and not much clean. The father and son sat cross-legged on the kang and did not speak for a long time.

"Kid...... In fact...... You shouldn't have come......" Yin Changtian sighed. is connected with him, and it is indispensable to be implicated. If you want to make progress in the future, I'm afraid it will be difficult.

The fourth master pursed his lips, "My son was young and ignorant. Over the years, I have been inquiring about my father's whereabouts. It's hard to be self-reliant, where can I ignore my father. ”

Yin Changtian frowned, "Your mother, I know." She won't want you to have anything to do with me. ”

"She's there, and I'll send her money every month in the future. The son will fulfill his obligation to support her. The fourth master explained in a low voice.

Yin Changtian instantly understood that this kid had not had a good time with his mother all these years.

Lin Yutong saw that there was no drinking jar in the house, only two bowls. So he made tea in a bowl and sent it to him, and put it on the kang table.

As soon as Yin Changtian smelled the fragrance of tea, he glanced at the fourth master, "This is all good tea, where did you get it?" ”

"A friend helped me change it. The fourth master avoided the important and trivial, and then quickly changed the topic, "I heard that the conditions on the farm are difficult, what are you doing here?"

"The first two years were terrible. There were a few deaths. The more educated people are, the more they can't figure it out. The more I can't think about it. Yin Changtian shook his head, "You Lao Tzu, I have died on the battlefield a few times, and I can't live any life." Criticism is criticism, and we will learn when we are called to learn. Write reflective materials, write reflective materials. If it's called farming, we'll farm it. Isn't this also carried over. Later, someone from above spoke, and they didn't dare to go too far. Another old man came, and you also saw this person. He's a sleek and nice guy. It's not difficult to be a person, and it can also fool those inspections above. Live behind closed doors, and live in peace. ”

The fourth master breathed a sigh of relief and looked at the room again. Thinking about it, he can be regarded as reporting good news and not bad news. Looking at the situation, it is not much better. It must not be hungry to death, but it is also not enough to eat. Not to mention the good food.

Lin Yutong opened the noodle bag by the stove, which was full of cornmeal mixed with wheat bran.

How do people eat this? Wheat bran is fed to pigs.

She turned her head to look at the fourth master, "Yinzhen, come and see." ”

The fourth master got up, looked down, and his face was blue.

Yin Changtian smiled and said, "I'll ask Lao Zeng to get some cornmeal later." Don't dislike this. If it weren't for Lao Zeng, there wouldn't even be cornmeal inside. It's either sweet potato flour or wheat bran. Sweet potato flour They wash the sweet potatoes and do not clean them, or they are stained with soil when they dry the sweet potatoes. Don't mention that noodle in your mouth. Wheat bran is stronger than that. ”

As he was talking, Lao Zeng came in with a bundle of firewood and a few catties of cornmeal.

Lin Yutong took it and hurriedly handed over two catties of food stamps.

"You kid, isn't this a slap in your uncle's face?" Lao Zeng insisted on.

Lin Yutong stuffed him into his pocket, "Uncle Zeng, it's not easy for everyone." It's already troublesome for you, and if you do this again, we won't be able to worry about it. ”

Lao Zeng didn't take out the food stamps, and smiled helplessly at Yin Changtian.

"Take it, old Zeng. Your sons and daughters have honored you all these years, and I have taken advantage of it. Yin Changtian said with a smile. I am still very satisfied with Lin Yutong's meeting.

After sending Lao Zeng away, Lin Yutong turned out the bacon, which is all pork leg meat, and it is very fragrant when it is fried in the pot.

"It took a lot of thought to get this done. Yin Changtian looked at the fourth master. How old this kid is, I don't know how long it will take to prepare for this trip. It's not easy just to exchange these things.

"It's okay, the place where I cut the queue is close to the Little Xing'an Mountains. There are quite a few of these wild things. The fourth master asked in a low voice: "Let's see if there are any uncles and uncles to invite, Tongtong's skills are good, and there are a few bottles of good wine." My sons have been around all these years, and I can't help you anymore......"

What else did the fourth master say, Lin Yutong didn't hear it at all. The mind is full of 'Tongtong' and 'Tongtong'.

The old husband and wife are still screaming by this 'Tongtong', their faces are red and their ears are hot, and they almost cut their hands.

When they came to their senses, the father and son were no longer in the house, obviously going for a treat.

Lin Yutong simply cut the pork leg, and saw pepper skewers and garlic skewers hanging by the door. Just put this in the pot together.

In an instant, the room was filled with an enticing aroma.

The guests invited by the father and son arrived one after another, and more than a dozen people crowded a table full. Chopsticks and bowls are all brought. Even the stools.

Uncle and uncle screamed.

The fourth master accompanied these people to drink. Lin Yutong entered the inner room and took some noodles from the space.

In the oil pan, fry the chopped green onions. Then bring it out and add water. A bowl of soup noodles per person is the staple food.

"It's a human meal. An old man with gray hair but in good spirits shouted.

"Xu Cannon, you stop. An old man with eyes, eating slowly, "Your voice scares the little girl again." ”

The old man who was called 'Xu Dacang' laughed, as if he could shake the soil off the roof, "It's not a family that doesn't enter the door. This little girl looks like a member of Lao Yin's family. It's not the stingy guy who pulls the cords. ”

In these years, meat and fine grains are waiting, who is willing to give it?

The old man with glasses snorted coldly, "I didn't give you a cigarette last time, and you remember it until now." Is it three years or five years. Who is stingy in the end. ”

Lin Yutong smiled. It's kind of interesting for these people to get together and run against each other.

More than a dozen people divided three bottles of wine, and none of them were drunk.

They all left early, giving space for fathers and sons to talk.

At night, Lin Yutong lived in the inner room, and their father and son slept outside. Voices could be faintly heard.

"All these years, my eldest brother and sister haven't come to see you?" the fourth master asked.

"I didn't call them. Yin Changtian was lying down, but his hands were on the quilt, touching the brand new sheepskin jacket covered by the quilt. "Your eldest sister also went to the countryside to cut in line. She is a girl's house, a family in Inner Mongolia, riding a horse for a day, and she can't even see a single smoke. Where dare you tell her to run blindly. ”

"When your eldest brother reached the age of going to the countryside, he went to northern Shaanxi. One of my guards, who happened to work in northern Shaanxi, learned about your eldest brother's affairs, so he arranged for your eldest brother to be a soldier. Went to Yunnan. Being a soldier is not free. Where did it come from. ”

"Your second brother...... He was fourteen years old when I left. When your eldest brother is about to leave home, send him back to his hometown. I don't know if your grandmother is still there, and if she were alive, she would be almost eighty by now. I told him to go back and serve your grandmother for me. ”

Yin Changtian's voice was a little choked, "But whether it's Tiannan or Haibei, knowing where they are, my heart is steady." That's you...... I didn't know about you all these years...... Sometimes I can't sleep night after night...... I don't know if you can eat enough and dress warmly. ”

"It's good to look at you now. I can rest assured, too. ”

The fourth master asked, "Where is your hometown?"

"Shandong. Yin Changtian let out a long sigh. "I never reply to a letter from your brother or sister. I'm in this place...... It's better not to cause disaster to you. ”

The fourth master breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and felt uncomfortable with his grievances. When he first heard that no one was visiting, he was still upset. Now that I hear it, it's really not easy to come here. I can't really blame anyone for this. Who let us just catch up with this world?

"When I left, my father gave me all these addresses. ”

Yin Changtian whimpered, "It's okay, no one will come forward to contact you...... This home...... It's really scattered......"
