Chapter 967: Homesickness

My aunt's family moved to the capital, and it was really busy for a few days. The second end was afraid that his grandfather and grandmother would not be used to living, so he didn't live in the dormitory during this time, and went home to accompany the second elder after class.

However, she obviously underestimated her grandfather's adaptability, and she went home at noon without class that afternoon, and she didn't see her grandfather.

asked my grandfather where he was, and my grandmother said that my grandfather had gone to the class reunion.

Reunion?!

The second end was surprised, to say that it was quite common for these young people to participate in a class reunion or something. Grandpa's class reunion is not so simple.

Whampoa Alumni Association, tsk, it sounds quite lofty.

Needless to say, how many military talents Huangpu has cultivated, famous generals. Just like an ordinary graduate like grandpa, he can crush a large piece casually.

Unexpectedly, my grandfather had only been in the capital for a few days, and there was a class reunion to attend. I'm really not afraid that he has nothing to do, and he is uncomfortable.

After lunch, the two ends accompanied their grandmother and grandmother in the yard while basking in the sun and winding wool.

The pure cashmere thread specially bought from Inner Mongolia, the old ladies are ready to knit sweaters without anything, and pass the time, and they are warmer and thicker than the ones bought outside.

At the two ends, he held a bundle of wool with his arms at his head, and his grandmother neatly wound the wool into a ball.

Grandma was already holding the wrapped ball at the beginning, and looking at the color, the two ends felt that this designation was woven for herself.

While winding wool, the two ends also searched the intestines and scraped the stomach to tell jokes to grandma and grandma.

The autumn sun shines in the yard, not as hot as in summer, but it has a different feeling of warmth.

Grandpa came back at this moment, put his hands behind his back, said hello sullenly, and went into the house.

Everyone in the courtyard looked at each other, what is going on?

They all saw that Chu Wenzhi didn't seem to be quite right, and he seemed to be in a bad mood.

But didn't I go to the class reunion?,It's supposed to be a happy thing.,I'm not so happy after participating like this?

"Shall I take a look?"

The two ends put down the wool in their hands and asked their grandmother's opinion softly.

Grandma nodded, the old man didn't know if he was angry outside, or if he was unhappy, so it should be okay to coax him.

Erduan went to make a cup of tea for his grandfather first, and entered his grandfather's house lightly with the teacup.

Grandpa was sitting behind the bookcase by the window, staring at the window lattice in a daze.

"Grandpa, are you tired? I made you a cup of ginseng tea. ”

The second end walked over, put the teacup on the table, carefully observed Grandpa's expression, and wondered what was wrong with Grandpa.

Isn't it right to participate in a class reunion and come back like this?

"Hey, thank you. ”

Grandpa came back to his senses and nodded.

Seeing her granddaughter looking at herself with a little worry, she knew that her abnormality had worried her child.

"Grandpa is fine, but I attended the class reunion today, and when I heard some things, I was a little panicked. ”

Chu Wenzhi tried to ease some of his expressions, but he was not very successful, and he was pressed on his heart, which made him unable to laugh at all.

"Grandpa, why don't you tell me something, maybe I can help you solve it?"

The second end sat down on the small stool next to him and looked at his grandfather with concern.

"Well, it's nothing. It's just a little emotional. The classmates who were in Huangpu together back then are now incomplete. Some even died in other places, which makes people sigh when they mention it. ”

Chu Wenzhi remembered how high-spirited he was when he was young, and he and his classmates imagined the future with enthusiasm.

Now, they're all old people. Those of them who are alive have a good life, but many of their classmates went to the small island far away from the mainland, but in the end they failed to look forward to the three links between the two sides of the strait, and they never set foot on the land of their hometown again until they died.

Without judging the different choices of the past, what a sad thing it should be that Chinese people with roots in the mainland cannot return to their homeland.

It is said that the fallen leaves return to their roots, but his former classmates, alumni, have not even fulfilled this wish.

People have been wandering for decades, and they have not been able to return to their homeland that they have been thinking about day and night.

As soon as Grandpa mentioned it, the two ends understood. Dare to love grandpa is heartache for some of his former classmates in Whampoa.

The particularity of the soldier, obedience is the duty. Therefore, many people were taken to a small island across the sea during a special historical period, and since then they have begun a nightmare that has lasted for more than 30 years.

"When I was a child, nostalgia was a small stamp, I was at this end and my mother was at that end. When I grew up, nostalgia was a narrow ticket, I was at this end, and the bride was at that end. Later, nostalgia is a low grave, I am outside, my mother is inside, homesickness is a shallow strait, I am at this end, and the mainland is at that end......"

Grandpa mentioned this, so that the second end can't help but think of the poet Yu Guang's poem "Homesickness", the love is sincere, and the wanderer's attachment to his hometown and motherland is vividly expressed. I couldn't help but chant out.

In the quiet room, there was only a clear voice at the two ends, slowly reciting the song "Homesickness", Chu Wenzhi seemed to fall into a deep memory, and his thoughts didn't know how far he had drifted.

The poem was very short, and after the two ends were recited, neither she nor her grandfather spoke.

The second end quietly looked at his grandfather's expression, and always felt that after chanting this poem, it made his grandfather's mood even more depressed?

After a long time, Chu Wenzhi moved, and his gaze turned to the two ends that had been paying attention to him.

Duanduan, grandpa decided to toss again in his lifetime, do whatever he wants, and do what he needs to do. ”

Grandpa actually had a smile on his face, as if he had figured out something, and the whole person was full of energy.

The second end was surprised in his heart, and he couldn't help but wonder what his grandfather wanted to do.

"Grandpa, what are you going to do here?"

The second end handed the tea on the table that was no longer hot to grandpa, and when he went out, he didn't know if he could drink saliva.

Grandpa took it and drank a few sips before answering the question at the other end.

"Grandpa is going to contact the other side and help the deceased veteran on the other side of the strait go home!"

When it came to his decision, Grandpa's voice was much louder, and he seemed to be very excited and excited about his decision.

This time, the two ends understood, because of the war, many soldiers went to the other side of the strait in a daze, but they never had a chance to go home until they died.

The traditional thinking of the Chinese, even if they die, must be buried in their ancestral graves, otherwise they are like the lonely ghosts, always floating outside.

Besides, the relatives in their hometown may also be waiting for their souls to return to their hometown. But it is not an easy task to do, first of all, you have to figure out the current policy, and secondly, it is a purely obligatory thing, there is no benefit, it is all about helping others.

The latter's grandfather must be fine, as long as he wants to do something, the family will definitely fully support it, and this is indeed a very meaningful thing. Only those who have experienced the war may be able to understand the longing for their homeland when they are uprooted in the war.
