Because they didn't wait for the eldest aunt, the brother and sister left after eating. It was only later that I learned that the meal that the two brothers and sisters ate was a year's food for the eldest aunt's family.

According to the mother, the eldest aunt's family had no money to kill pigs for two or three years, and the bowl of bacon was actually brought back to the eldest aunt after the uncle's family killed the New Year pigs. The eldest aunt's family is reluctant to eat, just hanging on the beam above the pot head, and when she is really hungry, she takes it down and rubs it around the side of the pot, so that the fried or boiled vegetables are stained with a little oil star flavor, and it is too enjoyable.

As a result, the eldest aunt came home from herding sheep when the sun set, and cried because she couldn't see Li Bayi's brothers and sisters.

Li Bayi heard this afterwards, and his heart was sour for a long time, and he kept thinking that if he had money, he would definitely help his aunt's family. But throughout his life, he couldn't help his aunt's family even a little.

He was running around outside, but he later heard that Da Hadron had tuberculosis and had no money for medical treatment, and his aunt had a stroke in bed for several years, and finally committed suicide because he could not bear the pain and torture.

My aunt's house was really a four-walled house, and she didn't raise pigs or chickens, and she even slept on the muddy floor in the hall.

There was no bed, three mats were spread around the fire pit in the hall, pillows made of wood, and tattered quilts Li Bayi couldn't believe that the republic had been established for more than 40 years, and his aunt's family was still so poor. What is the difference between this and the old society in the movie?

Just about to eat, the father who was born at night heard that Li Yuanfang was coming, and when he returned home to close the sheep, he hurried to Da Qiangzi's house to find an old friend, and insisted that Li Yuanfang and them go to his house for dinner, but the eldest aunt and father refused to let them, and the two sides were deadlocked.

Li Wensheng was a little unhappy: "You call me an old book @ Ji, which proves that you still recognize me as a big brother, we haven't seen each other for several years, you bought so many things to see me this time, how can you say that you don't go to my house for two days?" ”

The eldest aunt cried when she heard this, and stammered, counted and said Li Bayi father and son: "Your third aunt never came to my house, this time I finally came, and I don't want to eat at my house, because my family is poor and looks down on my family." ”

Originally, the eldest aunt usually stuttered when she spoke, but at this time, she had a handful of snot and tears, crying while talking, which was really desolate.

It is true that the eldest aunt's family is too poor and the road is far away, and the father does not let the mother and Li Bayi and the three siblings go to the eldest aunt's house, but the eldest aunt's family is too hospitable, and if you go to have a meal, you will have to eat the meat of the eldest aunt's house for a year, which is really unbearable.

As an aunt, she was very sad that she married Yishan alone, because she was poor, her relatives did not want to come and go.

Li Bayi walked over, patted his aunt on the shoulder and said, "Auntie, don't cry, we'll stay at your house for dinner, and I will come to your house often in the future." ”

Seeing this, Li Yuanfang also explained to Li Wensheng: "We came this time mainly for the illness of my nephew, who earned a little money when he was in college, and said that he wanted to take him to Tuocheng to see a doctor. ”

As he spoke, he proudly pulled Li Bayi, "Well, this is my son, who was admitted to Nanzhong University last year." He pointed to his father who was born in the night, "Call my father." Old Book @ Ji is not only the old leader when I was young, but also the big brother, and you often went to our house when you were young. ”

"Old Daddy." Li Bayi called out affectionately, and carefully looked at the current director of the state finance bureau and the future secretary of the municipal party committee @ Ji's father. In his sixties, he was fifteen years older than his father, with frosty temples, a dark complexion, a medium build, a thin and thin man, and the wrinkles on his face were as deep as ravines, which were obviously the scars left by the years.

"Oh! This is your eldest son, right? I haven't seen you for a few years, but I've grown so big. As he spoke, he said to Li Bayi with a smile, "I'm afraid you can't remember me, I used to go to Banbei and often eat at your house." Hehe, I haven't seen you for a few years, and the little dolls who cried and screamed when they woke up are all in college, amazing, far away, you gave birth to a good son. ”

Li Wensheng used to be the secretary of the brigade branch in the class @ Ji, Li Yuanfang cooked in the brigade when he was seventeen or eighteen years old, and he was considered Li Wensheng's subordinate.

Li Wensheng was dressed in a dusty single coat, without buttoning his clothes, barefoot, and did not sit on a stool after entering the house, but squatted on the side, stuffed the cigarette pot in his hand, and snorted and smoked, typical of an authentic old peasant in the mountains.

"Old book @ Ji You have raised a good son, and you were born in the night and now you are the director of the state finance bureau, right?" Li Yuanfang also smiled and said.

"Hehe, he, he called a long time ago, saying that he went to the Provincial Department of Finance for temporary exercise." Li Wensheng is indeed very proud, his son walked out of Yishan alone, turned into a dragon, and is also the only one in the entire Yongren County.

Ordinary people are generally straightforward, unlike people in the officialdom who talk around and around, Li Yuanfang said directly: "My son will graduate from college in three years, and I am afraid that you will talk to your son and help him find a better job." ”

Li Wensheng agreed without hesitation: "Well, I will tell him when my son comes back, and this busy eldest brother will definitely help." ”

It was at this time that the Great Hadron returned. He was barefoot, wearing a whitish blue card-made old clothes, with badly worn shoulders and sleeves and holes everywhere, which were old clothes that Li Bayi had changed out of after he was admitted to university.

Seeing Li Bayi and them, he was very happy, and he resisted the desire to cough @ Wang, standing a few meters away to greet everyone, and he didn't come, obviously for fear of infecting others.

Seeing that he was tall and hunched over like an eighty-year-old man, the whole person was so thin that only skin and bones were left, his eye sockets were deep, and his hair was gray, and everyone had a sad feeling. You must know that the big hadron is only thirty-one or twelve years old this year!

"Da Qiangzi, your illness has been cured, and I don't want to thank you for your old watch. Your cousin made money in college and wants to send you to a big hospital in Tuocheng to see a doctor. Guo Yufang was also sad when he saw the appearance of the big strong son, so he hurriedly told him the good news.

"Huh?" Da Qiangzi looked at Li Bayi in surprise, not knowing whether this news was true or false.

The eldest aunt stammered next to her and recounted what had happened.

Dry tears flowed from the deep sunken eye sockets of the Great Hadron and he couldn't believe that this was true, he had given up hope of life, and was just waiting for death day by day.

Suddenly someone told him that he was saved, that he could live, that he could continue to live like everyone else, he really couldn't believe it, suspected that it was a dream, and just stood stunned, his lips twitching, but he couldn't make a sound.

Ants are still greedy for life, let alone people?

When it was finally confirmed to be true, he crouched on the ground and cried, then coughed violently, coughing up clumps of black phlegm.
