"You're down. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info" Chen Qiuping said, she immediately forgot about her question just now, and focused all her attention on the porcelain kettle that Chen Chuan was holding in his hand, "Do you want to drink water?" The mother asked her son, "It's so hot, drink more water." ”

Chen Chuan hummed sullenly, poured a glass of water for his mother with his hands and feet, and when she finished drinking, he asked her if she wanted to eat something, whether she wanted to go to the toilet, and whether her head still hurt these days - in short, he was like a long-winded and thoughtful father, worried about everything his daughter had, even though it was completely opposite to who they were.

I don't want to eat, I don't want to go, it doesn't hurt anymore. Li Qiuping meekly answered every question from her son, and occasionally she also raised her own questions, such as when you walked to school one day, did you eat enough at school, did your classmates bully you, and the school was far away - she always couldn't remember where Chen Chuan studied, but she probably knew that it was a far away place - when she came back.

After two days. Eaten. No. Far. Come back in a few days. Chen Chuan answered them one by one patiently, although he knew that it was meaningless, these questions Chen Qiuping had asked him many times, every time he saw him, he would still ask the same questions, and then the second time he saw him, he would still ask the same questions, it seemed that Chen Chuan's answers were not important to her - it was true, the deterioration of her condition caused by long-term untreated, and the side effects of later medicines for her were a great damage to Li Qiuping's memory, and some doctors told the Chen family father and son, their wife and mother, In the near future, the likelihood of developing Alzheimer's disease is dozens of times higher than that of ordinary people.

Chen Chuan stared at his mother's face in the darkness, even though in fact he could only see a rough outline. He quietly helped his mother back to the bed, and then sat on the edge of the bed to chat with his mother, most of the time Li Qiuping could only give him a simple and vague answer, and after a while, Li Qiuping yawned and said, "Oh, I want to sleep." ”

"Then sleep." Chen Chuan quickly put a towel quilt on his mother, and then walked out lightly, he thought about it, but still did not close the door - the house has no windows, the only ventilation is the door, this weather, close the wooden door, the inside is no different from the steamer.

The quarrel in the yard continued.

Li Dongmei had a big quarrel with Chen Chuan's father with her hands on her waist, Chen Chuan listened to it with two ears, it was nothing more than the third aunt Li Dongmei insisted that it was handed over to him by her sister Li Qiuping, and now she said that she was unwilling to hand it over, and Chen Aiguo seemed to be planning to completely tear her face with the Yue family.

The head of the judicial department and the secretary of the brigade had no intention of saying anything about the chaos in the field. They simply left the dam to the pair of people who were arguing so much, and got together and discussed it in a whisper - Anqing meant that now that the situation was already like this, they simply didn't want what Li Dongmei had at hand, and the brigade would give the Chen family a certificate; Ye Shu was also tired of the quarrel in front of him, if it weren't for his duty and his great sympathy for Chen Chuan, the head of the judicial department would have left long ago.

"Then let's decide." An Qing said to Ye Shu: "Let's strike while the iron is hot and ask Chen Chuan to come with us—he can't do anything like that." ”

Ye Shu still wanted to go through the procedure, but he hesitated, thought about it and said, "Otherwise, call Chen Chuan's father, he is an adult anyway." She pointed to the blushing man.

Anqing said twice, "If you call Chen Aiguo now, it is equivalent to shouting Li Dongmei together, what else can you do." ”

The head of the judicial office and the secretary of the brigade called Chen Chuan over and asked him to bring his mother's household registration book and ID card, as well as various certificates issued by the hospital - these things used to be managed by Chen Aiguo himself, and then Chen Chuan grew up and Chen Aiguo simply handed them over to his son - Chen Chuan was still ignorant, but there was a vague guess in the end. Hearing the secretary of the brigade tell him about "proof of reopening", that vague hope suddenly came true, which made him a little afraid to take it seriously.

"In the future, will you really give us back the house in the future?" Chen Chuan only felt that every word that burst out of his throat, every syllable squeezed out of his throat was rolling, trembling and trembling, and the young man was stunned by this sudden huge happiness for a while, and he didn't know how to put his hands and feet.

The three of them were in the office of the brigade, and they wrote the payment on the blank red-headed document draft printed with the Chen Jiawan brigade in a slow and orderly manner, picked up the official seal at hand and sighed upward, and then covered it upright-"Give, don't take it away, and throw it away if you don't make up for it." ”

Ye Shu next to her breathed a sigh of relief, she patted Chen Chuan's shoulder, and said with some emotion: "Chuan Wazi," this is to learn the local name, "You must study well," she pointed to the documents on the table, "These, if you don't read and don't understand the law, you won't come back." ”

Chen Chuan was deeply impressed by the words of the director of the judicial office. After 2000, a new wave of the theory of the uselessness of reading rose in the countryside, many young people no matter what the purpose is - to reduce the burden on the family, or whether they don't want to miss it, or give the opportunity to their brothers and sisters - they are like migratory birds have gone south, and there are fewer and fewer young people in Chenjiawan, but there has never been Chen Chuan, he always remembers Ye Shu's meaningful words: "If you want to change your fate, Chuan Wazi, you can only study hard." ”

Later, Li Dongmei made two more big fuss, and almost fought with Chen Aiguo, she cried in the courtyard of the Chen family, saying that Chen Chuan was a white-eyed wolf, and Chen Aiguo was not good to die, and finally Chen Aiguo's cousins couldn't see it, and several people lifted a broom and a fork stick to drive her out, and the Li family and the Chen family were completely old and dead. The villagers of Chenjiawan talked a lot, and until the second year, there were still people who took it out as a talking point, but this matter finally came to an end, and since then Chen Aiguo can receive these dozens of yuan of subsidies openly every month, and then after a few years, the subsidies are more, and there are more than 100 yuan per month, but at that time, everything seems to be rising, and more than 100 yuan can't even manage Chen Chuan's food expenses for a month.

Of course, that's all for later. Back at that time, Chen Chuan carefully put the certificate stamped with fresh seals into his coat pocket, tucked it in, and was worried that it would fall out, and then he had to put one hand into his trouser pocket and hold it.

Ye Shu still had to go back to Chen's house to announce the results, and he also had to pack up his things, and walked with Chen Chuan all the way, laughing at him as he went: "Oh, don't be so nervous, you can't lose it." ”

Chen Chuan stopped when he heard this, and the young man swallowed his saliva, and suddenly bowed three times to the leaf plank, which startled the head of the judicial department and almost fell into the rice field next to him.

He said vigorously, "What are you doing here?" What are you doing here? Ye Shu was busy pulling Chen Chuan up, she was really embarrassed, she was also young at that time, her face was thin, and her white face was flushed. The head of the judicial office said to Chen Chuan again and again: "Why am I embarrassed that you are like this. ”

Chen Chuan didn't care about him, but just said seriously: "Director Ye, I know that today's incident is thanks to you." After a pause, the young man's voice lowered, "The matter in our house, after all these years, Chen Jiawan's doll knows that Li Dongmei is not a good thing, so why did Secretary An suddenly say that it would be solved?" Don't say I'm young, I know, it's because Director Ye is here. ”

Ye Shu coughed uncomfortably, "It's not ......" She stood for a while with her left foot and right foot and left foot for a while before she whispered, "It's my job." This sentence seemed to make Ye Shu grasp the key point all of a sudden, his face was a lot more normal, and he said to Chen Chuan: "This is our job, Chen Chuan, don't take it to heart." ”

It's as if Chen Chuan knew that An Qing was suddenly enthusiastic about the affairs of the Chen family because he had found Ye Shu, the director of the judicial department, who was not a big official and had little power, but he was also wearing a uniform anyway - Ye Shu's attention to the affairs of the Chen family was also because the Justice Bureau had recently set up a model for its work, and used judicial relief to help a student doll studying in Chongqing, which was obviously better looking and clever than those who mediated the trivial things of the peasants.

The two of them returned to Chen's house with something on their minds, and saw that the lively villagers were scattered to only three or three, and only one of the Li family's people was left, Li De'an, who was still in the courtyard. He sat at the door with a dry cigarette in his heart, and when he saw Chen Chuan coming back, his grandfather greeted him: "Chuan baby." ”

Chen Chuan stood on his feet, pursed his lips and whispered to his grandfather, then closed his mouth and lowered his head to look at his toes.

Li Dean looked at him with complicated eyes for a long time, swallowed all the tirades he originally wanted to say, and only said: "Don't remember the anger of your grandmother and third aunt." ”

The old man did not wait for him to answer, and went home alone with his hands behind his back.

Chen Aiguo cleaned up the yard alone, he picked up the teacups, swept the melon seeds and peanut shells all over the yard, and moved the stools and tables back to the hall, Chen Chuan hurriedly went up to help, while Ye Shu put his things into his backpack, the time was not early, she had to climb half of the mountain to the side of the road and wait for the driver to pick her up.

After packing up the things, Ye Shu called Chen Aiguo, "Prove that I gave it to Chen Chuan." She looked at the other party's middle-aged face with vicissitudes of life, and suddenly became surprised and uneasy, and couldn't help sighing in her heart, there was no special expression on her face, and then she continued to say just now: "I have also discussed it with your Secretary An, and I think this is probably the best way to deal with it, of course, if you feel unconvinced, you can also go to the judicial office to find me." ”

Chen Aiguo rubbed his hands uneasily, and stammered: "Don't look for it, don't look for it......" He suddenly reacted to what Ye Shu had just told him, his eyes widened, and he suddenly turned around and glanced at Chen Chuan - the young man was stuffing bacon and sausages into Ye Shu's backpack, Ye Shu followed and hurriedly shouted Oh, what are you doing, Chuan baby, while throwing down Chen Aiguo and running over to snatch the backpack out of Chen Chuan's hand.

Chen Chuan dodged Ye Shu's hand, carrying the backpack and running around in circles with the head of the judicial office, until he stuffed all the sausages and bacon into it and made sure that Ye Shu would not be able to take it out for a while, then handed her the backpack: "It's all from our own house," Chen Chuan's eyes were pleading, "It's not worth it, Director Ye went back and ate something fresh." ”
