796 told his father the truth
"Don't ask, if he still has me in his heart, he will naturally call!" Wu Pingshun sighed and stopped Wu Xiaojun.
Wu Xiaojun also wondered a little in his heart, the third brother should understand that the old father thinks about this and that every time he celebrates the New Year, he is very melancholy, even if he doesn't take anything else to heart, he can't forget the old father during the New Year, can he say that he knows that his father is guarded here, and his heart is steady, and he forgets about it, which is very possible.
Because the community where Wu Xiaojun is located is a suburb and surrounded by the countryside on all sides, the atmosphere of the festival is very strong, from noon to now, the sound of firecrackers has not stopped, Xiao Yiwen seems to be disturbed by the sound of firecrackers, leaning on Bai Lingyan's arms without any sleep.
Wu Pingshun is far away from his hometown where he has no wife and has lived alone for many years, and he came to Wu Xiaojun for the first time after coming out of the predicament for the New Year, and his heart is extraordinarily warm, although he is a little unhappy that Wu Xiaosen did not call, looking at Bai Bai Chubby, the little granddaughter who giggles from time to time who is coaxed by Bai Lingyan and Wu Xiaojun, is very happy.
The three talked about the past, chatted about homely things, imagined the future, and enjoyed themselves until the end of the Spring Festival Gala and the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner.
On the first day of the new year, the sky is blue, the sun is shining, there is no wind and no clouds, and the air is fresh to feel the greetings of winter to the New Year, which brings people a good mood, and the villages of tens of thousands of people are filled with joyful atmosphere.
Early in the morning, Wu Xiaojun and accompanied his father to the Guandi Temple in the back mountain to watch the excitement.
Guandi temple is built on the top of the back mountain, is an old temple with more than 300 years, the scale is not large, it is a unique architectural sign in the village, it is famous far and near, especially when the temple fair is from March 20 to 25 of the lunar calendar, it is to attract people from hundreds of miles to come to catch up, usually it is the activity place for some elderly people in the village to play mahjong, play chess, get together to chat, every New Year's festival, the incense here is very strong.
When Wu Pingshun came the first two times, he was unfamiliar with the place and had nowhere to go, so he often went to the temple alone to watch the old villagers play mahjong and polish the time.
I felt the situation of each temple very clearly, I felt that there was nothing to see, and there was nowhere to go on the first day of the New Year, and I couldn't sleep, so I went to the mountain temple with Wu Xiaojun to hang out.
When the sun of the New Year shows the white belly of the fish from the east, although the road is covered with snow, the travel remains unchanged, still does not block the enthusiasm of the villagers who come to incense and pray for good luck in the vicinity, help the old and the young, the colorful crowd, from the temple in front of the Yongdao endlessly poured up to the mountain gate, and there are some selling snacks, selling small toys, lined up on both sides of the Yongdao, the sound of selling is endless, it looks very spectacular and lively, it is really unexpected by Wu Pingshun.
Walking into the mountain gate, in the incense burner in the small square in front of the main hall, people have been thrown into the whole handful of Buddha incense, the flame of the incense is very energetic to fly up, many men, women and children kneel down on the side to pray for blessings.
At this time, a very fashionable woman wearing a red down jacket, a high bun, and a big gold earring, led a little boy of four or five years old in one hand and a handful of Buddha incense in the other hand to the incense burner, threw the Buddha incense into the incense burner, and then pulled the little boy to kneel down on the snow, kowtowed three heads very reverently, and then closed her eyes and folded her hands and muttered silently for a while before standing up.
The little boy has a long tiger head and tiger brain, a pair of big eyes flickering, blazing, and very clever, kneeling beside his mother is very cute, touching the scene, Wu Xiaojun's mind suddenly appeared, Qin Meixiang and Sizhen's figures in the distance, his heart trembled suddenly, maybe because he saw his son with his own eyes, this subtle and heartache feeling has never been there.
Wu Pingshun has never been interested in burning incense and worshiping Buddha, the third daughter-in-law Zhu Chunyan is very superstitious, every New Year's Day must go to Li Laozu Sendai incense, and the woman in front of him is quite similar, looking at the fashionable mother and son in front of him so pious, I feel both funny and kind.
After Shangxiang's mother and son left and entered the main hall, Wu Pingshun and Wu Xiaojun said, "The naughty and funny actions of children are similar to those of Long Long when he was a child. He said with a little regret and melancholy on his face.
Wu Xiaojun was still thinking about Qin Meixiang and Sizhen in his heart, listening to what the old father said, there was some kind of complicated pain in his heart, although his father knew the limitations of the national policy of reality, just like the third brother Xiaosen and Chunyan's sister-in-law, no matter how good the working and living conditions were, the only child could not be broken through, and the realization of his wish was extremely slim, but having a son has always been his biggest wish and a piece of heart disease pressing on his heart.
Should he tell his father about Sizhen, fulfilled his grandson's dream, and Wu Xiaojun's heart began to be entangled.
Since the death of his mother, for more than a year, my father has obviously lost weight and aged, his body is not as good as before, his mind is not as flexible as before, he is becoming more and more sensitive to some things, and he always loves to talk about nagging, plus he is not by his side, and the people at home do things from time to time, I am really worried that one day she will not be able to bear the pressure and stimulation of the spirit, and suddenly leave with regret.
Wu Xiaojun thought about it, since Sizhen's matter has become a fact, he can't continue to hide it, maybe let him know one day earlier, his mood will be better one day earlier, his mood will be good, his spirit will be good, his body will become stronger, and he will come out of the shadow of his mother's death and start a new life.
Wu Xiaojun thought about it carefully, and finally made up his mind, and said expressionlessly, "Dad, you will see your grandson!" ”
Wu Pingshun said lightly, "You little four, you will coax your father to be happy, in your current situation, you don't even have a serious home, wandering around, owing a lot of debts, and having a billion Wen living is enough to be tight, how can you have the time and energy to have children again, besides, the policy stipulates that it is dead, you can't do it at all, unless you and Xiaobai leave Pingxi and return to Yuanzhen, we are relatively loose there, it's a big deal to find someone to spend a few dollars." ”
Wu Xiaojun said seriously, "I didn't make you happy, what I said is true, I'll tell you something when there are few people on the front porch!" ”
Wu Pingshun heard that Wu Xiaojun's voice was a little wrong, as if he had something to hide from him, his face couldn't help but sink, and he followed Wu Xiaojun to the innermost part of the side hall where there were few leeward people, sat down on the chair, and asked in a muffled voice, "Say, what's the matter?" ”
Wu Xiaojun looked down at the white snow on the ground in front of him, and said faintly, "Dad, this matter is indeed bigger than anything else, don't be too excited after hearing it, and you can't tell others until I can't get a satisfactory solution for a while!" ”
Wu Pingshun heard that Wu Xiaojun had unspeakable pain, and sighed and said, "Si'er, I know that it has not been easy for you to go all the way in Pingxi over the years, you have suffered a lot of hardships and suffered a lot of sins, and your father watched you ride a dilapidated bicycle every day in order to save money to make ends meet, go out early and return late, and go back and forth for fifty or sixty miles, I feel very uncomfortable, and I want to help you a little, my father is old, your mother is gone, and you don't have any ability, so you can't do it in a hurry." We can't count on other people, you can only rely on your own hard work, remember, there is no step in the past, no matter how big things are, there are times in the past, after so many things, you have come step by step, become more and more mature, there should be no more things that make you feel particularly embarrassed! ”
Wu Xiaojun said with a heavy heart, "Dad, I have some difficulties in doing other things, and I may be able to get past it in a blur with a little more effort, but this matter that is pressing on my heart, I can't say it to outsiders, I can't mention it to outsiders, I can only bury it in my heart and bear it alone, I don't know when I can get rid of it from my heart, it's really difficult to do, it's very tricky!" ”
Wu Pingshun really didn't want to appear in Wu Xiaojun and something that made him feel particularly confused, and said very worriedly, "I think Xiaobai is really good, he doesn't dislike our family for being poor, and he takes care of you and Yiwen so well, is there anything between the two of you that can't be overcome and solved, or is her parents making trouble for the two of you behind your back, if that's the case, I'll go to them, I can't watch the two children be bullied by them again!" However, this has nothing to do with the fact that I don't have grandchildren! ”
Wu Xiaojun suddenly raised his head, looked at Wu Pingshun and said with a lonely expression, "Dad, this matter I want to talk about has nothing to do with Lingyan's parents, mainly Qin Meixiang!" ”
Wu Pingshun was stunned when he heard it, Xiaojun and Qin Meixiang fell in love six or seven years ago, and then Qin Meixiang suddenly disappeared, and it was over, how could it have anything to do with her, and it made Xiaojun so embarrassed, from yesterday's phone call, both Bai Lingyan and Wu Xiaojun were very grateful for Qin Meixiang's selfless help, unlike any difficult knots, the only possibility is that Bai Lingyan is still obsessed with the previous things of Xiaojun and Qin Meixiang, and said softly, "Si'er, how many years have you and Xiao Qin been doing before, Now Xiaobai is so good, and there is Yiwen, no matter what, you can't do anything to be sorry for Xiaobai! ”
Wu Xiaojun choked up and said, "Dad, it's not something you can't do, it's something you have done many years ago!" Then, Wu Xiaojun told Wu Pingshun in detail what had happened from front to back.
Wu Pingshun lowered his head and listened quietly, his head exploded suddenly, he couldn't believe that all this was true, he was surprised and delighted, angry and hateful, squatted on the ground, smoked violently, and didn't say a word for a long time.
Wu Xiaojun knew that his father's heart was very complicated at the moment, and asked carefully, "Dad, I didn't expect such a thing to happen, and I don't even have a chance to regret it!" ”
Wu Pingshun let out a long sigh, "Four! It's so miserable to give Xiao Qin to others, and it has also affected Xiaobai, what do you say you are doing! You're a big guy, and Dad really doesn't know what to say about you! What does Xiao Qin mean now? ”
Wu Xiaojun said dejectedly, "Her attitude is very resolute, admitting that Sizhen is a child of our family, but she has to raise Sizhen alone!" ”
Wu Pingshun said very angrily, "Do you think it's so easy to raise a child, how can our children be the shopkeeper and not take responsibility, this matter is not negotiable, the child must recognize his ancestors and return to our family!" If you feel embarrassed, I don't want to show this old face, go and talk to Xiao Qin! Let's go, go home, and call Xiao Qin! With that, Tengdi stood up from the ground.
