The old lady couldn't close her mouth with a smile, picked up the chopsticks and put a large piece of fish meat into Fang Yao's bowl. In private, the guest should be humble and polite, not to mention that as the head of a generation, he should respect the old lady even more, Fang Yao did not express any dissatisfaction with Yun Dong, but politely thanked the old lady,

This meal was something that the two of them would never have thought of before they came, but as long as they knew that person was Yun Dong, Fang Yao would not let Yang Zifeng sign that contract so simply, let alone this meal.

Yesterday, Yun Dong, who made Yang Zifeng hate his teeth when he mentioned it, has become a partner in a contract today, and he has no appetite at all for this meal, although there is wine and meat on a table of good dishes, Yang Zifeng didn't even move his chopsticks, and drank the wine on the table one by one.

The old lady sat aside and picked up the vegetables one by one, but she never touched a grain of minced vegetables, this may be the best way for the previous generation to express their hospitality, until Yang Zifeng's side, the old lady hesitated, put down the chopsticks in her hand and glanced at Xu Ming......

Xu Ming put down the chopsticks in his hand and wiped his mouth, only then did he remember that he forgot to introduce it. "Yang Zifeng, my college classmate, is a fellow countryman with me."

The old lady looked at Yang Zifeng, who didn't have much expression on her face, and said with a long sigh: "This kid reminds me of a person!" ”

All put down their chopsticks and looked at the old lady. Yang Zifeng's fierce expression suddenly widened his eyebrows, and he asked curiously, "Grandma, who do you think of?" Am I looking like someone? ”

The old lady shook her head without answering, put down her chopsticks, poured a glass of wine, and held it in her hand. "After drinking this glass of wine with the old woman, I will think about it and tell you again." Yang Zifeng had no choice but to pick up the wine glass and dry the glass. The old lady half-cocked her head, squinting her eyes and thinking hard, and there was silence all around, and everyone was waiting for her answer.

Yang Zifeng also asked curiously: "Yes...... Do you look like me, or ......?" the old lady sighed softly, and spoke of what she called a look-alike. "There have been two people in my life that I will never forget, one is my husband. I met him in a snowy field, and it was very thick that day, and my father and I were walking back to the city, and suddenly a colorful white tiger came out of the grass, and we were both stupid.

Just then a stocky big brother came after him, with a shotgun in his hand, and pushed my father and me behind him, shouting, 'Nannan take them to the cave.' When we turned around, we saw a young man running not far away, carrying two hares in his hands, and when he heard the shouts of a strong man, he hastily led me and my father to a cave not far away, and closed the fence.

We didn't dare to move in the cave, listening to the sound of gunfire and the roar of the tiger outside, and after a while, there was suddenly no movement outside, and we slowly walked out of the cave, and when we walked over, we saw that the strong man and the tiger had fallen, and the tiger was densely planted with a lot of bullet holes, although it was lying on the ground and still breathing weakly, but it was dying.

The strong man fell on the tiger covered in blood, motionless, and the blood stained the snow on the ground, so that Nannan's child pounced on the strong man sadly and cried bitterly......"

"That'...... And then? Fang Yao asked in a low voice.

"The father and son usually make a living by hunting, and they just returned from the hunt that day...... My father and I were given our lives by the strong man in exchange for his own lives, and when the strong man left, he was helpless, so my father took him back to his home. This child has a name and no surname since he was a child, and his father remembered that the strong man sacrificed his life to save people, not only buried him, but also listed the child in the Yun family, and hoped that he would cheer up from now on, and left the word Nan to give him a full name Yun Zhennan.

Soon after he arrived at the Yun family, he went to join the army, and his father always had a wish, that is, to marry me to him. After eight years in the military, he and I were fortunate not to embark on the path of brother and sister, but to step into the wedding hall, and my father's wish was fulfilled. ”

"In the early sixties, the conditions of my family were not too bad, except for my mother's early death, the three brothers and sisters in the family were not large, the two elder brothers were all doing business in other places, my father was a cadre in a cultural and educational center, and I was fortunate to be spoiled in such a well-fed middle-class life......"

"However, not long after we got married, we began to make trouble, where will I understand the things between men in a big girl's family, but in the midst of the dire situation, I still understand the fireworks in the world, one day he asked me, which one is the closest to me between him and my father."

The old lady poured another glass of wine and drank it, and shook her head silently and laughed. "Hehe, a blood to flesh, a heart to a heart, I understood everything at that time. Every day after that day was a torment for me, one was a military company, and the other was a well-known cultural officer in ten miles and eight townships... In the end, my father chose to leave silently, half a bowl of arsenic tea, without much pain and reluctance, this is fate. ”

The old lady said and looked at the side wall of the hall, and everyone looked at the wall together, because there was a photo of Yun Zhennan before his death. Yang Zifeng didn't know if he didn't look at it, and he couldn't help but be stunned when he saw it, there was really a bit of similarity.

"People are so helpless in this life, after my father left, the eldest brother and the second brother have no contact with me and my husband and wife, because in their opinion, it was because of his father that he committed suicide."

"Then do you blame him?" Fang Yao asked suddenly.

"Blame him... Of course I blame him, I blame him for not letting our family die forever; I complained that he didn't take off his military uniform, and lived forever; I still complain about why he agreed to marry me in the first place......" The old lady's eyes finally flashed two lines of tears, but she quickly stopped them.

"Ten years later, Wenge is finally over, our children are gradually growing up, life is dull, those old wounds left in the memory are slowly forgotten, I thought that everything began to become better, until one day he came back and told me that there will be no more war in the future, he wants to recover and does not plan to continue to stay in the army, I thought that finding a job outside is no worse than waiting for the army, so I agreed.

But after he recovered, I noticed that something was wrong, his body was getting thinner and thinner, and his health was much worse, and I didn't know that he had cancer until the day he fell, and he left me. ”

At this time, Xiumei stretched out her hand and held the old lady's hand, and choked up: "Mom, don't say it anymore!" ”

The old lady sighed on her back and continued: "Tianba was only 12 years old that year, and our orphans and widows were exiled to the new city, and every day we took him out early and returned late to work as a coolie.

However, there is one thing that I am very happy about, and that is that I am very filial. I can't give him much as a mother, but I only taught him two truths, one is to be human, no matter where you go, you must be a person who is affectionate and righteous, and the other is to always remember to be strong. ”

The old lady laughed intently and continued: "The stinky boy is really affectionate and righteous, joining the gang, forming a gang, and worshipping the eldest brother...... Sure enough, I will strengthen myself, smuggle and sell drugs, and make a lot of money, I ......"

The old lady suddenly covered her chest with her hands, and sat stiffly on the chair with a very painful expression, Xiumei and Yulan were so frightened that they didn't know what to do, Fang Yao calmly brought over a cup of boiling water on the tea table, and slowly fed the old lady to drink. Xiumei walked along the old lady's back and trembled: "Mom, what's wrong with you, don't scare me, Mom, Mom......"

After a few shouts, the old lady finally breathed back, slowly eased up, and took Xiumei's hand. "I'm fine......"

"Grandma, don't say any more, let's have a good meal!" Magnolia said with tears in her voice.

At this time, Yun Dong, who had been silent, stood up and knelt heavily in front of the old lady. "Grandma, the grandson is wrong, the grandson will make amends for you for your father, the grandson is not filial, and the father is not filial." After saying that, he slapped himself in the face fiercely, and Xu Ming hurriedly grabbed Yun Dong's hand when he saw this.

When Fang Yao saw the scene in front of her, she couldn't help but sigh and cry, she couldn't believe that the Yun family, who was now in a prominent position, was actually supported by the white-haired old woman who was nearly eighty years old in front of her. How difficult it is for a woman to die and her husband to pull the child alone, and how uncomfortable it is to be powerless in the face of a spoiled child! Even though the Yun family's father and son have been involved in ** in the past, how difficult it must be to get to where they are today after decades of ups and downs.

At the moment, what seemed to be an ordinary meal was disturbed by an old lady who touched everyone's hearts, and of course Yang Zifeng also burned this qiē deeply in his heart. The old lady adjusted her state, coughed a few times, straightened up again, and sat upright in her chair.

Everyone present saw it very clearly, except for the two new faces Yang Zifeng and Fang Yao, the past ten years have made this old man who shouldn't have been pale and pale to be 100 years old early. Since Yun Dong came back and saw the old lady for the first time, she felt that every time she saw the old lady after that, she was aging, and every time she faced the old lady and Xiumei, there was an indescribable pain in her heart.

"Five years ago, there was a yellow-haired boy who went to visit relatives in prison for an elderly man, and he never thought that when he came back, he was surrounded by a group of people, and asked about the whereabouts of the old man with punches and kicks.

Having said this, Yang Zifeng and Fang Yao seemed to understand something, and they set their eyes on Xu Ming together, and as expected, Xu Ming's body was trembling at this moment, and tears flowed down his cheeks. "Ancestor, don't say it anymore, the Yun family has a great kindness to me, and no matter how much I pay for the Yun family, I should do it."

Yang Zifeng stared at Xu Ming with surprised eyes, came to Xu Ming and slowly landed his hand on Xu Ming's leg, feeling uneasy every time he touched it, after touching an intact leg, he swallowed a mouthful of saliva, mustered up the courage to tremble his hand and continued to touch the other left foot, until it touched below the knee, he suddenly took his hand back, and looked at Xu Ming with a frightened face.

"Where's your leg? I'm asking you! What about your legs? What about the legs? Who did it! Water? Who did you sue me, and who made you like this? Yang Zifeng screamed excitedly, Fang Yao tried to calm Yang Zifeng down, pulled Yang Zifeng back to the chair, never thought that Yang Zifeng shook Fang Yao's hand away, and pointed at Yun Dong viciously and asked, "How did he become like this?" Who the hell hurt him like this? ”

Xu Ming stood up and pulled Yang Zifeng back to the chair, wiped away his tears and forced a smile: "Am I not fine?" Can you calm down? ”

The old lady poured a glass of wine and stood up, and came to Xu Ming's side with a wine glass. "Child, grandma didn't forget you at the first glance when she saw you just now, grandma didn't dare to face you, it's grandma who is not good, and she hurt you like this, this glass of wine grandma respects you and gives you compensation!"

The old lady raised the wine glass above her head and bent down with difficulty to salute Xu Ming. Xu Ming hurriedly helped the old lady up. "Ancestor, I can't help it! Xiao Ming doesn't blame you, don't do this, I drank this wine, if you don't mind, I'll call you grandma in the future. ”

The old lady drank the wine happily, put down the cup and hugged Xu Ming in her arms, and patted Xu Ming's back with her hand. "Good boy, the Yun family owes you too much, you have suffered a lot over the years, grandma is sorry for you."
