It's a bit colder in the countryside than in the city.

After walking for a while, they were cold.

The uncles hurriedly beckoned the three of them into the house.

After entering the house, the uncles pushed Qin Yongmei and their mother and son into the room on the left.

"Come in and get warm. ”

Qin Yongmei turned around and looked at the opposite room: "Where is my father?"

There was a clanging of crutches, and Grandpa came out of the house.

Bai Ke's grandfather was an old man with a big nose and a full beard.

The skin is very white and the eyes are somewhat greenish.

He was on crutches in one hand, and the other in his arms, and his fingers could not be closed, as if he were holding a pistol.

He staggered when he walked.

Grandpa is half-paralyzed.

In the 50s, when he began to evaluate the family composition, his grandfather was rated as a rich peasant, and he was paralyzed on the kang in a hurry.

At first, it was very serious, I could barely walk and I couldn't take care of myself.

Later, after a rural doctor used acupuncture for a period of continuous treatment, he finally got better, and he became paralyzed and paralyzed.

Although one side of the hands and feet is a little stiff and unable to speak normally, walking, sitting and lying can solve it by himself.

"Dad!" Qin Yongmei greeted her.

Bai Ke and Bai Ning also hurriedly shouted: "Grandpa!"

Grandpa lowered his head with a smile and pricked Bai Ke and Bai Ning's faces with his beard.

The uncles urged on the side: "Come into the house quickly, it's cold." ”

Bai Ke pulled his grandfather and walked into the house.

As soon as he entered the house, Bai Ke pulled his grandfather and said, "Grandpa, you go to the kang quickly." ”

Grandpa sat on the edge of the kang, and Bai Ke hurriedly helped him take off his shoes.

The uncles and cousins all looked a little dumbfounded.

The uncles said with a smile: "Our white guest is really going to come to trouble." ”

Bai Ke scolded angrily in his heart, Lao Tzu is obviously filial, and it will become a problem in your mouth.

Qin Yongmei also said proudly: "Since I came back, my family has become more and more sensible. ”

After the grandfather went to the kang, the three of them also took off their shoes and sat down cross-legged.

On the small kang table, there are peanuts, melon seeds, candies and other things.

As soon as he sat down, Grandpa reached out and grabbed the candy to eat.

In the last life, Bai Ke vaguely felt that his grandfather was a little abused in the third uncle's house, at least he was not treated well.

At the moment, a child's instinct can't be wrong.

Grandpa had a homestead back then.

Grandma died early, and after he was half paralyzed, he couldn't live alone, so he gave the homestead to his third uncle's family.

From this point of view, the third uncle's family should take on the obligation to support the elderly.

But the third uncle's family tried every means to shirk it, and sent the grandfather to the aunt's house twenty or thirty kilometers away in three days.

In the end, the two families were anxious and white-faced, and many years later, the descendants of the two families did not interact much.

In the previous life, when Bai Ke was older, he began to gradually suspect the character of his third uncle.

even felt that he had a purpose in helping Bai Ke and his family of six to be transferred from the south to the north.

It's not that he misses his sister-in-law.

It is very likely that he wants his honest sister and brother-in-law to help him raise the elderly.

Therefore, after Bai Ce just divided the house in 78, the third uncle's family sent his grandfather over in a hurry.

Let grandpa and the six members of the Bai family squeeze into two rooms, one large and one small.

It wasn't until three years later that Bai Ke's uncle transferred to a local job and took his grandfather away.

Moreover, the third uncle helped his sister-in-law's family transfer from the south to the north to ask for a return.

Not long after Bai Ke and his family moved to the north, he directly asked Bai Ce to buy him an Omega watch, which cost more than 100 yuan.

In my hometown in the south, people can also ask for things directly when they ask someone to do something.

But between clan relatives, this must not be done.

Even if you help a lot, you can't directly ask for a return, otherwise you will be divided.

The most outrageous thing is that less than half a year after the third uncle got the omega watch given by his brother-in-law, he let his old neighbors drive his sister and brother-in-law's family to the street.

The landlord who lent the Bai family the house had a very strong relationship with the third uncle's family, and his ability to turn his face and not recognize people was somewhat related to the third uncle's approval.

Therefore, this time when he came to visit his relatives, Bai Ke had to ask the third uncle for an explanation no matter what, and he had to find a way to squeeze him.

Bai Ke and his grandfather were unceremoniously eating candy and peanuts together, and it didn't take long for the plate to be swept away.

Qin Yongmei pulled Bai Ke a little embarrassedly: "Eat less, keep your stomach for dinner." ”

Bai Ke looked at the third uncle with a smile and said, "What the third uncle's family has is delicious." ”

The third uncles smiled awkwardly: "Yes, yes, you're welcome." ”

Bai Ke looked back at his grandfather, who was winking at him.

was immediately pleasantly surprised, it turned out that grandpa was not confused at all.

He just can't speak, and his hands and feet are not good.

In fact, I know better than anyone else.

And grandpa winked at him, obviously seeing his intentions, and silently supporting his upcoming action of pretending to slap his face.

It wasn't until it was almost time for lunch that the third uncle finally came back.

Bai Ke hurriedly greeted with a smile: "Third uncle!"

The third uncle sneered: "Little Nanman, you can still speak Mandarin." ”

The third uncle's temper is exactly the same as in the previous life, so it seems that his fate will not change in this life.

In Bai Ke's impression, the third uncle has always been like this, speaking in a weird way.

In fact, he inherited some of his grandfather's appearance, all of which were thick eyebrows, big eyes, and big noses.

The biggest difference is that he has yellow skin and light hair, and his beard is barely visible.

In addition to this, there is one biggest difference.

Grandpa loves to laugh very much, even if he can't speak and his legs and feet are not good, he always smiles.

The two eyes were crooked like the moon.

The third uncle is different, he never laughs, and his face is crooked when he occasionally laughs, which is more ugly than crying.

Qin Yongmei saw the third uncle and hurriedly greeted: "Third brother!"

She looked humble, like a little girl.

Bai Ke couldn't help but sigh in his heart, Mom, Mom, even if the person in front of you is your third brother, he is unkind, you can be righteous, but you don't have to hold him to the sky.

After the third uncle came back, he started to eat.

The table is not big, and not everyone can come up.

My uncles and eldest cousin were busy on the ground, adding food and vegetables from time to time.

In this era of material poverty, the table of the third uncle's family was very rich.

Because the third uncle worked as a policeman on the railway, he often asked for cards to and from the units that came and went.

In the words of the locals, he is a man who eats miscellaneous acres.

This is the case with this category of people, whose character and conduct affect their profession, and their profession, in turn, affects their character and conduct.

Although there are rich fish and meat, the craftsmanship of the three uncles is extremely poor, and the things they make are even worse than home-cooked food.

Therefore, white customers can only pick their favorite things to eat, such as salted prawns, skin jelly, enoki mushrooms and the like.

Although the oyster soup is a little salty, the oysters are good, about the size of an egg, fat and tender.

Bai Ke fished out the oysters and ate them, not only for himself, but also for his grandfather.

The third uncle watched from the side and sneered: "Since your grandfather is so rare, take your grandfather home to live, right?"
