On the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, according to the plan of the previous year, Li Manman's family and his uncle's family went to the old uncle's house to pay New Year's greetings. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info Lin Xiujuan took Grandma Li, and the aunt rode with the uncle and cousin. The two families had three cars, and happily went to their relatives.

Li Manman sat in the back of the car, grabbed his father's clothes with his hands, and looked at his father's tall and thick back, very relieved. I remember the last time Li Manman was a father's bicycle in his previous life, it was in the first year of high school, when Li Manman had just been admitted to the first middle school from the countryside middle school, and the classmates who lived in the school after school on Saturday afternoon had to pack up their things and go home, but Li Manman didn't dare to go home alone, and he couldn't go home alone, because he couldn't recognize the way home.

The table mate I just met was an understanding little girl, she couldn't go home because she was far away, so she sat in the bedroom with Li Manman, waiting for Li Tianxue to pick up her daughter. At that time, Li Tianxue was working in a small bottle factory in the county, and he had been depressed, and he still had the obsession of returning to Daweizi, and he was getting old very quickly, and he was only in his forties, his hair was half white, and two of his teeth were lost.

At that time, he hurriedly pushed to the outside of the girl's dormitory, hurriedly found his daughter's room, saw his daughter waiting for him obediently, and breathed a sigh of relief, and said hello politely to the girl who accompanied his daughter, and rushed home with his daughter.

Li Manman was already one meter six tall at that time, and his weight was one hundred and ten pounds, Li Tianxue rode a bicycle with his daughter, which should still be a little difficult, but at that time, where could Li Manman understand his father's hardships, and he sat in the back of the car safely. It wasn't until many years later, more than ten years after his father's death, that Li Manman woke up crying when he dreamed about the situation again.

Raising his head, he looked at his father's body leaning forward slightly on his bicycle, and put his head on his father's back, determined to protect his father and the happiness and consummation of the family.

"Da Hong, are you sleepy? Can't sleep! It's terrible to fall out of the car! Li Tianxue felt his daughter's head resting on his back, worried that she was asleep, so he reminded loudly.

"Didn't fall asleep! My face is cold! Li Manman made an excuse, "Dad, when can you drive that kind of car that bulges in the middle!" It's certainly not cold to sit in! ”

"Hey! You girl, your heart is quite big, you want to be a car! That's not where ordinary people sit! Lin Xiujuan heard her daughter complain and blamed.

"Hey, kid, talk and play, what's there!" Grandma Li was not satisfied with her daughter-in-law talking about her granddaughter, so she said.

"The director of our factory has a car!" The uncle interjected, "I've seen him come in the car with his child!" ”

"That's your factory director!" The aunt blocked the uncle's words, "If you have the ability, you will take me to sit one day!" Uncle was silent.

"Hmph, what's the big deal, I'll buy a car and take you to sit in the future!" Li Manman listened to the discussion of adults, and felt very uncomfortable, she had driven a lot of cars in her previous life, and her own family was domestic, but Taotao's family had two imported cars, and her little cousin's family also had a coupe, and Li Manman had driven them all. However, in this era, in this small county, the cars are all public, and there are almost no private cars.

"Good! I'm waiting for my eldest granddaughter to drive me with me! Grandma Li was amused by Li Manman.

"My grandmother, I'll take you with me too!" Taotao saw that her sister was praised, and hurriedly expressed her position.

"Okay, grandma also takes Taotao's car!" Grandma Li smiled like a flower.

"I'm not afraid to blow it up!" Lin Xiujuan can't get used to her daughter's bragging.

"Mom, I'm not bragging! The newspaper has always said that we want to reform and open up, we must be bolder, take a little more step, and we will definitely be more open in the future. Why can't my family buy a car in the future? I'm sure I'll be able to earn money to buy a car in the future! Li Manman argued.

"You know a lot!" Lin Xiujuan doesn't fight with her daughter, what is there to worry about in children's words.

Li Tianxue has not spoken, he also thought that his daughter was whimsical at first, but then he listened to his daughter's analysis, and he also read the newspaper and knew that the current policy is to encourage everyone to open their eyes and work hard, which is something that they could not have imagined six or seven years ago, maybe in the future, it will really be like what his daughter said, his family may really be able to buy a car to drive, so thinking about it, Li Tianxue felt full of energy: "Well, if Da Hong is right, then Dad will buy a car and take you to relatives!" ”

"What a child says, you should take it as true!" Lin Xiujuan glanced at her husband, pedaled a few times, and rode forward.

"Dad, I'm going to make a car too!" Taotao turned her head and coquettishly to her father.

"Okay, then Dad will make good money and buy a car for Taotao!" Li Tianxue said dotingly.

"And me, Dad, you can't be patriarchal!" Li Manman stopped and protested.

"Da Hong, your dad is coaxing! What are you coaxing! The aunt thought it was ridiculous, so she persuaded her.

"Your dad wants to be patriarchal, I'll call the shots for you!" Grandma Li said with a smile.

Li Man pouted and was silent.

As soon as he arrived at his aunt's house, Li Tianxue went to the study with his uncle to discuss things. Li Manman refused the little cousin's invitation to catch the sparrow, and plunged into the pile of books that the old uncle had put in the big box in the room.

"Little girl, why don't you play?" Li Manman was looking at it vigorously, a voice came into his ears, and when he raised his head, he saw an old man with a white beard wearing a long cotton robe, looking at himself with a smile, and recognized that this old man was the famous Zhou Yinghua, the father of the old uncle. Li Manman hurriedly stood up, put down the book, and greeted respectfully: "Hello Daddy!" ”

"Don't stand, sit down!" Zhou Yinghua saw that the little girl looked respectful, shook her hand and said, "It's the New Year, why don't you go out to play?" Didn't they go catch sparrows? ”

Li Manman sat down obediently and said with a smile: "The mud outside is slippery, and when you leave, you will be covered in mud, I don't like it!" ”

Zhou Yinghua picked up the book Li Manman was reading just now: ""Dream Memories of Tao'an"? Curiously, he glanced at the girl in front of him who looked to be only ten years old, and asked, "This is a traditional character, can you recognize it?" ”

Li Manman used to like to read these literary essays, but it seems that most of them are horizontal simplified versions, and the vertical traditional version in front of him seems to be a lot of trouble, but it's not unrecognizable, but now he can't say that he knows them all, so he pretended to be very embarrassed, scratched his head, and said with a smile: "I don't recognize it very much, but I can guess!" ”

"Tell me, then, how did you guess?" Zhou Yinghua was more interested.

"You see, the combination of the word 'layer' and the Zeng character below should be a shape and sound character, and I think it should be the current 'layer' word." Li Manman explained, pointing to a word in the open page.

"And what does this word read?" Zhou Yinghua pointed to another traditional Chinese character.

"The lamp should be read." Li Manman replied pretending to think. Then Zhou Yinghua pointed out a few words one after another, and Li Manman answered. Zhou Yinghua nodded with surprise and satisfaction, handed the book to Li Manman, and said, "This book is for you!" Read well! ”

Li Man was stunned for a moment, quickly returned the book, and said, "This, I can't ask for it!" I'll just take a look! ”

"Give it to you, and you can take it! Your little brother is not reading material, and this book is also a bug! Zhou Yinghua put the book in front of Li Manman again, and pointed to the book box, "There are still some interesting books in there, if you like them, take them back!" Sooner or later, the white will be eaten by bugs. With that, he walked out.

Li Manman was smashed by this huge surprise, she coveted this box of books from her old uncle's house since she came back, not to say how much antiques she was referring to, the earliest book was the late Qing Dynasty version, but in the countryside of this era, such books are rare. Although I like it very much in my heart, Li Manman never thought of asking his old uncle for it, but now he was actually given to him by his father, how happy he was!

Li Manman opened the box and took out the books one by one, the types were very miscellaneous, there were romance novels, red treasure books, biographies, and even Montesquieu's "Persian Letters", Alexandre Dumas's "La Traviata", Li Manman took out these two books, turned them over, the pages were already a little yellow, and there was a signature on the title page: Zhou Shuyuecun. Li Manman knew that Zhou Yinghua's character was Shuyue, and he couldn't help but think of how suave Zhou Yinghua should have been decades ago!

I took out all the books, picked a few of my favorites, and the rest were neatly stacked in the bookcase.
