Chapter 029: Sibling Friendship

After hearing Guan Yuelei's name, Lao Fan suddenly trembled: God, I'm really confused, then Minister Guan is indeed surnamed Guan! Could it be- she was-

Thinking of this, Lao Fan's body shook a little, and he tried to calm down several times, but he couldn't control it.

At this time, Yu Xiaolian walked out of the house.

Seeing this, she immediately went up to help Lao Fan, and then raised her head and said dissatisfiedly: "He didn't close his eyes all night last night, you have a big matter, and you have to go back and talk about it." Look at the appearance of the two of you as cadres, regardless of whether he can bear it physically or not, what kind of cadres are thinking about the people? Big brother of a pound - you hurry up and get down-"

Shouting the name of a pound in her mouth, Yu Xiaolian supported Lao Fan, turned around and walked to the door.

She is a simple girl's family, no matter how these two well-dressed men got out of the black official car parked not far away, or didn't care about their identities, they naturally had no rudeness to them.

Besides, Lao Fan, he really couldn't stand, and he wished that someone would come out to stop him at this time.

Because, at this moment, he suddenly felt that he was really old and confused, and even the big problem of Minister Guan's surname Guan could be ignored.

Moreover, he absolutely could not answer the questions raised by Director Zhou.

Although, he is particularly familiar with the name Guan Yuelei.

Although, those memories are already decades ago.

Faced with the sudden situation, Director Zhou and Deputy Mayor Feng were confused and a little confused.

They looked at each other, and probably felt that what Yu Xiaolian said was reasonable, so they smiled at each other helplessly.

Later, Deputy Mayor Na Feng also apologized and said, "Old man, I'm sorry, I'm offended." Then you pay attention to rest, and we'll get back to it. Don't be angry, little girl, take good care of your father-"

When a pound came out, he suddenly panicked.

While he kept calling "Daddy", he and Yu Xiaolian hurriedly helped Lao Fan into the hall.

In fact, Yu Xiaolian called a catty out, not to let him help support Lao Fan, but to let him send the two men away.

Because, she thinks that she is not from the old Fan family, and there is no reason to issue an eviction order.

However, when "take good care of your father" came from behind, she couldn't help but feel a little happy in her heart, and she couldn't say it.

Back in the hall and lying on the bed in the west room, Lao Fan cheered up a lot, and first asked how Baliang was doing now.

After hearing that Baliang was asleep, he was relieved and said weakly: "I really didn't close my eyes much last night, and now I am probably really sleepy and want to sleep for a while." Get out of here, all of you. One catty, Xiaolian has been out for a long time, and when you wake up, you have eaten together, and let Xiaolian go back early after eating. Otherwise, your rich uncle will be in a hurry. ”

Yijin replied "um", Yu Xiaolian said "It's okay", and invariably told Lao Fan to have a good rest, and then also exited the room one after another, and then gently closed the door.

After Yijin and Yu Xiaolian went out, the room was very quiet.

But Lao Fan's mind was noisy and even chaotic.

There were many noises, mixed together, there were lively shouts, there were roaring machines, there were crisp piling sounds, there were rough smashing sounds, there were piercing cicadas, and even deafening slogans, and hoarse criticisms.

When these sounds were intertwined, Lao Fan's eyes were in a trance and confused, and he quickly returned to his memories of the year:

Back then, he was still a fifteen or sixteen-year-old child, and Shili Village was not called Shili Village, but Lingshui Village.

One summer afternoon, Mr. Fan brought home a boy who was slightly older than himself, saying that he was a relative of his own family, from Qing*zhou City, a few hundred kilometers away.

Mr. Fan also introduced that his name is Fan Wenqing, and he is studying in his second year of high school in Qing*zhou City No. 1 Middle School.

However, in the days that followed, this brother named Fan Wenqing didn't pay much attention to the old Fan of the year, and he still liked to be alone in everything.

Then things got weird.

One evening, Old Man Fan called Lao Fan to the study, pinched a branch in his hand, and explained in a rather stern tone: "My son must remember that you are not the only son of his father, and there is also a brother, his surname is Fan Wenqing, who was sent to a distant relative's house for foster care in his early years, and now he has returned home, which can be regarded as a family reunion." If an outsider asks about it, you say, "Do you hear it?" Moreover, your Brother Wen Qing has just returned to his hometown and is not familiar with the place, you have to take care of him everywhere and everywhere, protect him, if there is a slight mistake, don't blame your father for punishing you! ”

In other words, Fan Wenqing, who was still a relative of his family a few days ago, became his own brother and his eldest brother in a blink of an eye.

But Lao Fan didn't express the doubts in his heart, and obediently followed Old Man Fan's words and took care of Fan Wenqing at all times.

At that time, Mr. Fan not only spoke at home, but was also a recognized cultural person in the village.

He usually likes to read texts, forgets to sleep and eat, and enjoys it.

There is also a study room at home, equipped with the four treasures of the study, and a good handwriting.

Every Spring Festival, Mr. Fan would bring the four treasures of the study, visit door to door, and write festive free couplets for the whole village.

Old Man Fan also has a great ability, which is deeply admired by the villagers, that is, he can speak well.

When the Zhang family's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law are not in harmony, and the Li family's father and son are in conflict, and there is a lot of trouble, the figure of Old Man Fan will appear.

It is said that as long as Mr. Fan comes out, both sides of the conflict will give face, and the problem can basically be effectively resolved.

Moreover, Old Man Fan deals with contradictions, sometimes he can reprimand unkindly, sometimes he can comfort him gently, and even cry when he laughs, and he laughs at him.

Needless to say, for Old Man Fan's words, Old Fan was obedient at that time, and he didn't dare to be a little lazy.

In the days to come, although Fan Wenqing still didn't pay much attention to himself, Lao Fan also remembered Old Man Fan's explanation and took care of Fan Wenqing's daily life with his heart.

Another day, following Fan Wenqing to Shili Town, it coincided with the lively street parade.

When I didn't pay attention, I found that Fan Wenqing ran away with a person wearing a high hat and being tied up with flowers, and kept saying nonsense like "father-father-father-".

However, the crowd was crowded, and both of them were eventually squeezed to the ground.

It was during the break in getting up that Lao Fan witnessed the slightly raised old face, as well as the two lines of calligraphy on the high hat: Anti-Revolutionary * Activist - Guan Yuelei.

Unexpectedly, in the middle of the night one day, Lao Fan, who got up in a daze to relieve himself, inadvertently saw the old face outside the half-open door: That's right, it's him, Guan Yuelei who was called his father by Fan Wenqing!

This made him have a strong premonition at that time: there are some things that Old Man Fan must hide from himself, and it is a very special thing.

For example, this person named Fan Wenqing is not his eldest brother at all.

In the years that followed, life was peaceful.

The only thing that Lao Fan found strange was that the person named Guan Yuelei was dragged to the upper reaches of the town to show the public more and more frequently, and sometimes it could even be said to be vigorous.

So much so that one day, the radio in the village suddenly shouted a piece of news: Guan Yuelei, the No. 1 spy of the evil anti-revolutionaries and bourgeois enemies lurking in the provincial party committee and government, committed suicide at around 5 o'clock this morning. His life was a life of being an enemy of the people.

That was the day when Mr. Fan, who had always liked to read texts, burned all the books in his house, and even smashed the four treasures of the study in the study.

In my impression, it was the first time that Old Man Fan had such a big fire.

Moreover, in the following years, Mr. Fan's body deteriorated, and after a violent vomiting of blood, he called his son to him again, and intermittently made a Zuihou explanation, which specifically means:

First, Fan Wenqing is not called Fan Wenqing, but Guan Wenqing, his father is called Guan Yuelei, and he was the first secretary of the provincial party committee and provincial government before his death.

Second, Guan Yuelei was not an anti-revolutionary, not a spy of the bourgeois enemy lurking in the provincial party committee and provincial government, nor did he commit suicide in fear of crime, but was persecuted to death.

Third, the Fan family and the Guan family have been siblings since the end of the Qing Dynasty, and it is important to protect Guan Wenqing, which is also the commitment of the Fan family to the old friends.

Since the death of Old Man Fan, Guan Wenqing has been quiet for a few years and married the daughter of a young man in the village.

And because he was already married, Guan Wenqing stubbornly moved out of Lao Fan's house on this ground.

When Lao Fan married his wife, Guan Wenqing came to congratulate him alone.

However, later, the two families gradually lost contact, and the news between them gradually faded.

Suddenly, one day, more than 20 years ago, the police of the Shili Town Police Station came to Lao Fan's house and gave him a bolt from the blue: Guan Wenqing often went to the town government and local households to pick quarrels and provoke trouble, and then because of repeated setbacks, he couldn't think about it for a while, so he committed suicide by jumping into the Lingshui River last night.

Later, Lao Fan heard that this Guan Wenqing, because he drank ink when he was young, went around complaining about his father Guan Yue, posting tabloids, attacking the government, assembling to make trouble, and even fighting with his father's "enemies" during his lifetime.

But some people say that Guan Wenqing was tied up by those "enemies" and thrown into the Lingshui River.

Incredibly, within a few years, Lingshui Village was no longer called Lingshui Village, but was quietly changed to Shili Village.

At that time, Lao Fan did not have the courage of others at all, and because of the child's mother's illness, even if he felt ashamed of the death of Mr. Fan, he could only regret and secretly feel guilty.

Therefore, over the years, don't say that others mention it, and in the dead of night, you are afraid to think about it.

A few days ago, I was worried about messing around, which was also due to these memory fragments.

However, there are unforeseen circumstances!

The past, which has been sealed in the dust for so many years, actually erupted out of control, calling him, an old man who has entered the age of sixtieth year, both shocked and panicked:

Could it be that Minister Guan is Guan Wenqing's daughter?

Could it be that Minister Guan came to ask Lao Fan Jiaxing to ask for the guilt?

Could it be that God is iron-hearted to punish the old Fan family!
