Before I reached the river, I heard the sound of some children frolicking in the distance, the spring in the south is warmer than in the north, and it is now noon, and it is probably the children running to play in the water after school.

After walking for a while, I saw about five or six children playing in the water from a distance, and there were a few faces that I was familiar with, but they didn't know me anymore.

After thinking about it, I walked over and asked, "Hello children, do you know where the old man who lived in this village has gone?" ”

"I don't know." A few older children shook their heads in response.

"Okay, thank you."

After crossing the river and walking through the grove, we reached the end of the village, where a few villagers gathered in the commissary to chat.

"Hello, do you know where the old man who has been living in the house at the head of the village has moved?" That's when I realized that I didn't even know my grandfather's name.

"I don't know, the village has long been unoccupied." An uncle replied.

I looked at him in amazement and said, "Didn't that old man live there half a year ago?" ”

"I don't know." They shook their heads.

"Oh, sorry, excuse me." After speaking, I turned around and was about to walk back, thinking that maybe the old man would not come here for a long time, and it was estimated that they didn't know him, so I thought of something and turned around and asked, "Then do you know where Xiang Andong and He Zhirong's home is?" ”

"I know, Xiang Anton is my cousin, and their family lives in the attached city." The uncle who had just started to speak replied.

Hearing him say this, I couldn't help but feel happy in my heart, but listening to his tone, it should be Xiang Anton is still alive, no matter what, let's go to their house first.

"Then will you take me there? Shall I pay you? I asked with a smile.

He nodded, "Okay, I'm preparing to leave the annexed city in a while, and I will take you with me by the way, and the remuneration will not be needed, just by the way, and you are looking for my cousin, I have no reason to take your money, right?" ”

"Thank you so much!" Hearing him say that, I thanked him again and again.

Riding this uncle's motorcycle from Fengxia Village, it didn't take long to arrive at the annex city he said, and after entering an alley, he stopped, he made a phone call, and after a while, Xiang Hanyu came down from the building.

"Uncle Cousin." As soon as he came, he called the uncle, using Hakka, because I had always heard him communicate with He Yufeng in Hakka before, and gradually I could understand seven or eight points, "This is?" He asked, looking at me.

"Xiang Hanyu, uh-huh" I suddenly stammered, not knowing what to say.

He looked at me quizzically and asked, "You know me?" ”

"Ayu, I still have something, you greet people first, she is here to find your father, I'll go first." The uncle looked at the time, then quickly said, then started the car, and ran away.

They looked at each other speechless for a long time before he said, "Are you looking for my father?" ”

"Ahh I nodded repeatedly.

"Then please go upstairs and sit down, my dad won't be back until the afternoon." He said politely.

I nodded in response, "Okay, thanks, excuse me." ”

I can't imagine that Xiang Anton is still alive now, it is estimated that it is because of the change of history, so they were given a chance to be reborn, which is really good, really good.

The two of them had no more words to say, so he led me upstairs, his house was on the fifth floor, and he poured me a glass of water while sitting on the sofa in the living room.

"Where are you from? How did I not know that my dad knew you? He sat down across from me and asked, puzzled.

I didn't know how to answer his words for a while, I couldn't tell the truth, and after a pause, I smiled and said: "Actually, I am also from Fengxia Village, but my family moved to Beijing many years ago. ”

"I see."

"yes." I nodded, and then said, "By the way, is your house far away from He Yufeng's house?" ”

"Do you still know Ah Feng?" I nodded, and he added, "By the way, how did you know our names?" ”

I smiled but didn't answer, and then went straight to the point, "By the way, I heard that in my great-grandfather's generation, all of us in the village made a living by fighting backwards, I don't know if you ever fought later?" ”

"Huh?" He was paused by my question.

Seeing that he might be wary, I quickly opened my mouth and made up a lie, "Don't get me wrong, I didn't mean to snoop on anything, because my grandfather opened an antique shop in Beijing at that time, and now there are not many goods in the store, so I want to go back to our hometown and see if you have any good Ming utensils in your hands?" ”

He nodded, probably believing my words, and thought about it before saying, "There are too many tomb robbers, ancient tombs are in short supply, and many people have had to give up their old business because they have no livelihood in the past few decades, and engage in some work to support their families. ”

I agree with his words, and this is indeed true, because tomb robbing is a very dangerous thing after all, and I used to say that there was no way to take this road, but now I can have a lot of work to choose from, and I don't have to do such a dangerous thing.

"As far as the people from our original village are concerned, who else is still fighting recently?" I asked.

"There are only three families." He didn't think about it, and then said: "It's my family, He Yufeng's family and Uncle Qian's family, but the last inverted fight was more than five years ago, that is, a small bucket, there is nothing very valuable, and then there are no more good clues, so even if you find us, there are no good goods." ”

In order not to make him suspicious, I had to pretend to show a look of loss, "I see, that's a pity"

"yes, although I only had a few fights with my dad at that time, I thought it was quite interesting, but I can't go now."

His words made me can't help but hold my forehead, feeling that he is digging people's ancestral graves and digging addicted rhythm, but I didn't say much, now I can only wait until Xiang Anton comes back, and after discussion, after all, I don't think Xiang Hanyu can have any ideas.

I picked up the cup and took a sip of water, and then didn't speak again, Xiang Hanyu He was also very cooperative and didn't say anything more, and the two fell into a stalemate, as if they were trying to see whose concentration was better, and the wordless embarrassing scene made me keep praying over and over again that Xiang Anton could come back soon.
