（2014．9．5）

After the reunion of the classmates, I took a car to the house of my husband's fourth brother in Daqingxi. I set off from home with my husband, and he got off the bus in Daqing West to his fourth brother's house to wait for me to return from the party.

On September 1st, we took a car to the oil city, and my husband's classmates and friends Li Baihe and Zhang Tingwen were in Longfeng.

When I arrived at a station in Longfeng and got out of the car, I heard someone call my husband's name, I looked up and saw Li Lihe's son Li Yanjie first, who drove his own car to pick up the three of us. When I looked at it again, it was Li Lily, and I was surprised, the Li Lily in my mind and the Li Lily in front of me couldn't coincide.

Li Lily in the past, the tall and sturdy middle-aged man, with a gray face, big eyes, full of energy, a smile on his face, speaking loudly and magnificently, as soon as he said it, he talked endlessly.

And Li Lily in front of him, his hair is all white, and he is a little unkempt, under his nose, he has a messy white beard, he is still very tall, and his eyes are still very big, but he has no previous look, and there is no smile on his face, some woodcuts, he is wearing a light gray dress, stretches out his hand, and shakes hands with the three of us, he speaks, but he can't speak clearly, I can't imagine that since the last time his son got married, my husband and I came to attend the wedding, it has only been more than 40 years, and he has changed so much.

We got into Yanjie's car and arrived at Li Baihe's house without much effort. His home, the same building as before, was on the fifth floor, and when he entered the house, Tian Shufat, the wife of Lily, came over and took my hand, and I looked at her, she was wearing a colorful robe, her hair was black, and she was permed with curls, of course, it was baked oil.

I looked at her face, there was no change, there was a smile on her face, and I said, "You're still so beautiful." She smiled and said, "It's beautiful, it's all old." ”

Then, I glanced at Lily's house, of course, I didn't have any impression in my mind, but after glancing, I felt that it was very clean and pleasing to the ears and eyes, much better than my husband's fourth brother's house. Then, we walked into the room in the southeast corner of Lily's house, which was the living room.

Under the east wall and under the north wall, there is a sofa, in front of the sofa there is a large tea table, there is a large tea tray on it, the tea tray is full of fruits, black grapes, yellow pears, red peaches, this is for our coming.

We sat down, Tian Shufat went to cut the watermelon again, and a large plate full of them was brought in, and the lily made the best tea. We ate watermelon, drank tea, and started chatting.

Before entering the house, my husband and my fourth brother put two bottles of rich old cellar and a box of six walnuts in the corner of the wall.

The five of us had a very affectionate chat. Li Lily's son went out.

In the process of chatting, Tian Shufat called Zhang Chenghua and Zhang Guizhi and told us the news that Zhang Chenghua was another friend of her husband, and Zhang Guizhi was Zhang Tingwen's wife and my primary school classmate.

At ten o'clock, Zhang Chenghua arrived, I looked at him, there was no change, he was very tall, thin, with good facial features, not a big face, eyes, nose, mouth, of course, not big, but self-proportional, very coordinated, he did not see the old.

Zhang Chenghua said that he came only after cooking for his family, and he didn't go back. Zhang Guizhi said on the phone that Zhang Tingwen was playing mahjong and would not come until eleven o'clock.

At eleven o'clock, Tian Shufat said that she would not cook at home and go to the restaurant. She said: "Zhang Ting Wenxuan Hotel, he is familiar with any hotel, but we don't know which hotel is better." So, there were five of us, and we went downstairs to the hotel. Zhang Tingwen called and said that the couple went directly to the hotel.

Walking out of the building, I looked around, and saw that the buildings were standing tall, all neat, and in front of the building of the lily house, the cement floor was very clean, not a single weed, not a single stone, much cleaner than the front of our house, giving people a pleasant feeling.

When I arrived at the designated hotel, I saw a small car, Zhang Tingwen stuck out his head and greeted us, and my husband and fourth brother and I got into Zhang Tingwen's car. I couldn't sit down, so I called a car and drove until I stopped in front of the designated hotel.

As soon as I got out of the car, I saw coldly, next to the car, there was a tall woman standing, I wondered, what is this woman doing here, take a closer look, it turned out to be Zhang Guizhi, I took a closer look at her, she was a little taller than me, her hair was thin, and she had a bun on the back of her head, a little fatter than in the past, and a little older.

At this time, the image of her as a teenager decades ago suddenly appeared in my mind: tall, thick and black hair up to the base of her ears, crooked peach slits on the top of her head, pinned hairpins, wearing a jacket with white flowers on a blue background, a string of white glass necklaces around her neck, a pair of big eyes flashing on her delicate face, saying funny things in her mouth, and giggling non-stop.

And Gui Zhi in front of him, wearing a short shirt with saffron on a black background, black pants, and pale yellow shoes, looks like an elderly woman. It's really unforgiving, and in the blink of an eye, decades have passed.

The restaurant is Guo's cake shop, and as soon as she enters the door, the young female boss greets Zhang Tingwen. Then everyone went inside and sat down in a room. Then, let Zhang Tingwen order, he is a frequent customer of the restaurant, which restaurant is how, what kind of food is delicious, he understands.

Going to this Guo's cake shop is also his choice, and others can only follow him. Zhang Tingwen looked at the recipe, and he ordered eight dishes: elbow, sweet potato ball, pot wrapped meat, crucian carp, kidney flower, pork belly, and shredded potatoes.

There were eight old people in total, sitting around the table, and the delicious food was served, and the luncheon began. asked for a bottle of wine, the five men poured the glasses full, and everyone chatted while eating, of course, the conversation was all about Tiannan and Haibei, colleagues and friends, and also talked about the death of Liu Huaiwen and the three of them.

Later, Zhang Tingwen changed the topic and said: "My eldest granddaughter scored 702 points in the exam and got the best results. I listened and looked at Zhang Tingwen, his face had not changed much, but his eyebands were prominent, and he looked a little old-fashioned.

Zhang Guizhi said: "My granddaughter was admitted to a key middle school, and the principal of No. 29 Middle School said that he would give 150,000 yuan to let my granddaughter go to their school, but we did not agree. ”

When the people here heard this, they were very surprised and thought that this child's learning was fantastic, and this child's name was Zhang Naiyi. She is the daughter of Zhang Guizhi's eldest son, Zhang Guizhi's eldest son's nickname is Xiao Ming, divorced his wife, and Zhang Naiyi belongs to his mother.

Zhang Guizhi also said: "My eldest daughter-in-law accompanies my granddaughter every day. As soon as she got out of the exam room, her mother asked, 'How did you do in the exam?' and my granddaughter said confidently, 'Mom, you just wait for the results to be released.' ’”

Zhang Guizhi also said: "This child's grades are enough for Tsinghua University and Peking University, and she is running to Peking University." When I heard this, I was very envious of Zhang Naiyi's academic performance. I also thought of my granddaughter, who started school in September, and she should be in the third year of junior high school, but her grades will never be as good as Zhang Naiyi's.

The men had already drunk a bottle of wine, but Zhang Tingwen was not happy, he opened another bottle, drank most of it, Zhang Guizhi took the wine bottle over, and did not let them drink it, for fear that they would drink too much, and in the end, the men still drank the remaining half of the bottle of wine into their stomachs, and they were happy to see each other.

In the end, Zhang Tingwen looked at me and said, "The third sister-in-law said something. I took my cup and said, "Thank you for your hospitality, reminiscing about the past, looking at the present, the sunset is infinitely better, and looking forward to the future, life will be heroic and meritorious." May we meet again!"

When everyone here heard my words, they all applauded and applauded.

The wine has been drunk, the fun is over, and it is time to go back.

During this period, Zhang Chenghua went out, and everyone thought he went to the bathroom, but as a result, he went to pay, his heart was so good, he went to pay without saying a word, and he was not publicized.

I took a taxi back to Lily's house and went to Westinghouse to sit down and chat and drink tea. I felt sleepy, so I went to sleep, and I slept refreshed.

At six o'clock in the evening, Tian Shufat prepared a meal. Her son Li Yanjie bought roast duck, both in boxes and in bulk, with a total of two plates. Tian Shu mixed a plate of tomatoes and sugar, and the rest was the dishes packed back from the restaurant, as well as rice gruel.

Of course, the men started drinking again, drank a bottle, or Zhang Tingwen advocated drinking again, he went to the southeast room, poured wine from several large glass wine bottles, each drank half a glass, I saw that my husband's half a cup was more, after drinking it, I found that his tongue was hard, this is too much, should not drink anymore.

However, Zhang Tingwen said to her husband again: "Come, let's have another drink." As a result, my husband got drunk. He has multiple cerebral infarctions, and the doctor doesn't let him drink, but he just doesn't want to avoid alcohol, tobacco or alcohol, and he wants to drink until he dies.

This time, when he came to see his good friend, he used wine as a substitute for friendship, and his feelings were deep and boring. Let him drink, and he will drink, as if he is willing to drink to death for his friends.

After eating, everyone returned to the southeast house, and as soon as my husband entered the door, he touched the nearby flower pot crookedly, and almost collapsed.

Everyone was drinking tea and chatting in the house, I saw that my husband was already drunk and confused, but Zhang Tingwen did not have this reaction, chatted for a while, Zhang Tingwen and his wife were going home, everyone got up and went to send.

When we came back, we saw that my husband had fallen to the ground, with his face facing the sky, and his head must have fallen hard, but he was already insensitive. Several people picked him up and put him on the sofa, although his eyes were open, he didn't understand anything, and the other men, none of them were drunk. In fact, his husband was lying on the sofa, and his fourth brother put him a high pillow, which was very uncomfortable.

Tian Shufat found that there were spots of blood on the pillow, she thought it was her husband's head bleeding, I parted my husband's hair little by little, there was no blood, and later, the fourth child said, it was his hand that was bleeding. This is reassuring everyone.

Then, helping my husband to the bed in the West House, I took off his pants, covered him with the quilt, and asked me, "Where is this?" I saw that his eyes were open, but there was no light, and it was very cloudy. Wine wow, drunk him.

After settling the drunkard, I, Tian Shufat, and the fourth child went to the table in the corridor to sit down and chat, Lily probably returned to his bedroom to play on the computer, and Zhang Chenghua fell asleep on the sofa in the southeast room.

At nine o'clock, we all went to bed, and I could sleep somewhere, and I still thought of the drunk, and he was still very stable, and I didn't know when I fell asleep. I also saw the fourth child go to the bathroom, and he opened the curtain a meter wide.

When I woke up in the morning, I saw that it was raining outside. Everyone had breakfast, and the breakfast was big fruits and berries, as well as tofu brain. Then, everyone went to the southeast house to drink tea and chat, eat watermelon, and drink tea. But my husband lay down in the north room, and he was still uncomfortable, and I also lay down for a while and didn't fall asleep.

After getting up, I asked Tian Shufat to turn on the computer, she said no, Li Lihe turned on the computer for me, I got on the button of Winter Shadow, and found an email, saying that my August novel full attendance award was approved, I finally put my mind at ease, at this time, Lily came in and said that it was time to eat.

Take a taxi to Chuanwang hot pot, this is the restaurant ordered by Zhang Tingwen again, this is to brush the pot. Everyone sat down, there was a gas stove in the center of the table, a gas pipe underneath, and the waiter brought the milky soup into the pot, and then a few of us went to get the spices.

I made half a bowl for my husband, and I made half a bowl myself. It didn't take much effort, the waiter brought the mutton slices, the mutton slices in this place are different from my place, they are big and thick, the mutton slices in my house are small and thin, put them in the pot, and after a while, the mutton slices will be cooked, a total of nine people, Li Yanjie also came.

There are many kinds of seasonings, including sesame paste, leek flowers, chili oil, fermented bean curd soup, coriander, garlic, green onions, and several kinds of fat seasonings, I don't know what they are, but I put them in a small bowl and stir them, and they taste delicious. The cooked lamb slices are dipped in seasonings and are delicious. It turned out that I didn't like to brush mutton, and in the nineties when I went to work, the school organized several times to go to restaurants to brush mutton, and I ate it and felt good.

I saw that my husband didn't eat much, and the seasoning I gave him was barely moving, and he was still drunk and couldn't eat it. Everyone else ate with relish, including me.

After three rounds of wine, five flavors of food, and Yanjie paid the bill, we all took the car back to Lily's house. It's still raining, and the three of us plan to go back to Xicheng, but the rain just doesn't stop.

At 1:40 in the afternoon, Li Baihe slurred words and said, "Shufat has taken a taxi." Later, I realized that Tian Shufat was taking a taxi back to Xicheng for the three of us, and she had already given the taxi driver forty yuan for the fare.

We packed up our things, Gui Zhi brought two glass bottles of crushed pickles pickled yesterday, gave us one bottle, gave Zhang Chenghua a bottle, and Zhang Chenghua gave us his bottle as well.

I went downstairs to the car, waved goodbye to my friends, the car started, and this meeting of friends ended. In the future, it's hard to say when I will come again, this time we get together, warm and warm, deep and righteous!
