Lin Dezhong's mental state is good now, and after thinking clearly about the causes and consequences, he finally let go of his heart knot.

"Son, your mother and I will live a quiet life in the future! It's up to you three siblings later. Lin Dezhong drank his son's filial piety wine and ate the food cooked by his wife, feeling that he had no regrets in his life.

"Dad, aren't you going to wait until May?" Lin Mo asked.

Lin Dezhong took a sip of Lai Mao wine from the cup, and said disapprerovitously: "The successor is here, so your father and I have to make way for others!" There was a month's holiday, and I was resting at home. ”

Looking at his father's relaxed demeanor, Lin Mo was also happy for him, a person who refused to follow the rules must have run into walls everywhere in the officialdom, Lin Dezhong in his previous life went to work was a kind of torment for him, now it's okay, the relatively calm Congjiang Academy will definitely make him like a fish in water, and he will no longer be decadent in his previous life.

In order to remove Lin Dezhong's position this time, the relevant leaders of Congjiang City estimated that it took a lot of work, after all, Congjiang College is a provincial school, although a vice president is nothing, but there will be some exchange things in the middle. Now that the dust has settled, Lin Dezhong can look at the first half of his life from an outsider's point of view, although it is not said to be lost, but it can also be called a sudden epiphany.

"Dad, do you regret it?" In the study, Lin Mo asked with a smile, while Lin Dezhong was squinting and enjoying the tea after the meal, and he sang along with the singing voice in the tape recorder.

"The mountains are green, the water is green, the mountains are high... Running water... The rhyme of the mountains and flowing water..."

"What do I regret? Isn't that what this is all about in this life? Lin Dezhong took a sip of tea and leaned back comfortably on the back of the chair.

"Birth, study, work, marriage, childbirth, and finally dust to dust, dust to earth. So, it's a day to be happy, it's a day to be gloomy and gloomy, it's better to look away, I'm a child now, and your mother can be considered virtuous, can you ask for more? ”

"It's a pity that your grandmother doesn't want to live here, otherwise I can accompany her well!"

Lin Mo's grandmother is still stubbornly guarding the old house, for which she specially recruited a son-in-law for her eldest daughter, she raised two children with hard work all her life, and now they are doing well, especially her son Lin Dezhong, who can now be regarded as a department-level cadre, after receiving a letter from her son, grandma happily said to her eldest daughter: "Your younger brother is now at the same level as the "county" mayor. This is the glory that the old Lin family has never had, for this reason the grandmother also went to tell the ancestors and ancestors, saying that he finally lived up to their expectations, and raised his son to raise talents, as well as the learning situation of the grandchildren and granddaughters also talked carefully for a long time, and when her old man came out of the ancestral hall, his face was full of red light, which scared everyone.

"Dad, wait for the holidays! Now that you've gone to teach at the academy, won't the whole family be free when we get to the winter and summer vacations? ”

"Yes! Dad is dizzy, okay, let's go back as a family this summer, and Dad will take you to fish and touch crabs. Lin Dezhong stood up excitedly, his longing expression was fully revealed, and his hometown was always haunted in his heart.

"Good! Let's go back together. Ma Xiulai pushed the door in, and behind him were two sneaky children, but their scary plan didn't work out.

"Lao Lin, I don't know if I will have any grain rice to eat when I go back now?" Life in the countryside is much better now than before, and rice is no longer a rare thing.

"Hah! Then you can do it yourself at home, and we can be regarded as bittersweet memories! Lin Dezhong couldn't help but want to eat the coarse grain rice in his memory.

When Lin Mo was four years old, because his father had to support remote areas for a year, and his mother was busy with work, he was handed over by his father to his grandmother to take care of him for a year.

That year, the life in my hometown was not bad, I could eat white rice once a week, and the rest of the six days were wrapped grain rice, as for noodles, there was no food purchase in the countryside, so it was rare to eat a meal of noodles.

The so-called rice or corn rice, is to use a stone mill to grind the dried old corn into small particles, and then put it into a large pot with a small amount of rice to cook until it is mostly cooked, and finally on the steamer, the steamed corn rice is 'carrying hunger' in the old man's words, but the taste is dry and hard, many restaurants in later generations have launched the so-called health food - corn rice, but unfortunately it has only its shape, and there is no rough flavor at all.

In the late 80s and early 90s, there were still people who ate corn rice in remote mountain villages, but they didn't use stone grinding, they used a machine to beat the corn into powder, and steam it out with rice to eat.

"Okay, we'll eat too." Lin Rui and Lin Lei, who grew up in a honey pot since childhood, knew about the difficult life before, they simply thought that corn rice was a delicious thing.

"Won't do it!" Ma Xiulai's face showed a rare embarrassed expression, seeing that everyone was looking at her, she said angrily: "Where will I make this corn rice!" Doesn't our family always eat rice and noodles? I've never done it, so don't think about it. ”

The two children pulled their mother and pouted, causing Ma Xiulai a headache, and finally they stopped when they knew that they could go back to their hometown to eat corn rice during the summer vacation.

……

The next day was Saturday, Lin Rui was taken outside by his mother, and the stubborn Lin Lei was angry because she didn't eat corn rice today, so she didn't want to go out. Looking at his sister who was listlessly playing with Ichiro, Lin Mo was a little helpless.

"Lei Lei, shall we go out to fly a kite?"

"Lei Lei, ...... of us?"

……

Looking at his indifferent sister, Lin Mo scratched his hair, and finally made a big move.

"Let's go... Shopping? As soon as these words came out, Lin Lei immediately abandoned poor Ichiro, she first looked in the mirror, then checked what was wrong with her dress, and took Lin Mo's hand with a sweet smile.

"Big brother, let's go quickly, otherwise Mom and they will be back in a while."

"You conscienceless little villain, your mother and second brother don't invite you like this?" Lin Mo pinched her sister's little nose with her hand until she shook her head and admitted her mistake.

The temperature in Congjiang City in spring is suitable, and there is no weekend yet, so there are not many people on the street, only some students are wandering in groups, and the lack of entertainment facilities allows them to spend their boring youth in this way.

As usual, I went to the department store first, and as soon as I entered, I saw a few salespeople bored knitting, chewing on other people's trivial things in their mouths, and bursting out laughing from time to time.

Lin Mo and Lin Lei's entry did not attract their attention, and a middle-aged woman continued her gossip after glancing at the visitor.

"Zhu's second wife's wife is really sassy..."Saying that, she made a 'you know' look, and the other women were suddenly flushed with excitement, and the sweater in their hands was gone, waiting intently to hear the news of Hongxing's coming out of the wall.

Lin Mo's brows furrowed, he didn't care about these bullshit things, but Lin Lei was still too young to let her hear these filthy words, just as he was about to leave with his sister.

"Big brother, this shuttlecock is so beautiful!" A row of brightly feathered shuttlecocks in the glass cabinet made Lin Lei unable to take her eyes off, she pointed to the shuttlecocks in the cabinet with her little finger, and looked at Lin Mo pleading with dark eyes, there is a tendency to cry to you if you don't buy it.

"Auntie, buy two shuttlecocks." Lin Mo's voice made several women a little impatient, when it came to the wonderful*, what kind of mess are you making?

"Do you really go to a man's house in broad daylight? Ay! Don't say it yet, wait until I come back! A woman asked, quickly took the money in her hand, returned the money, took the goods, and trotted back as if her ass had been burned by fire.

"What about the back? Who did she roll in bed with? ”

Lin Mo pulled Lin Lei and hurriedly ran out, these wives and ladies are all idle, and now they are still a big pot of rice, and soon the department store will contract out all the counters, and these women are the main force of contracting, and the service attitude has also changed abruptly.

After leaving the door of the department store, Lin Mo let out a sigh of relief, fortunately he left in time, otherwise his sister's ears would have been polluted today.

"Big brother, what's rolling in bed?" Lin Lei took her eldest brother's hand and asked with a raised face.

"This..."Lin Mo felt that his face must be a big embarrassment now, and he whipped those old women a few times in his heart and said, "It's like Lei Lei likes to turn over in bed when she sleeps at night?" You fell the other day, did you forget? ”

"Oh! It turns out that adults can fall out of bed too? I thought I would! Ay! It's okay now, and the next time my mom talks about me, I'll have a way. Lin Lei's relieved appearance almost overturned Lin Mo.

The afternoon sun was lazy, the air smelled of spring, and there were songs playing in the small roadside shop, but Lin Mo estimated that it was a pirated tape, because he remembered that Cui Jian did not release the tape this year, and the sound effect released in it was very poor.

“…… But you always laugh at me... Nothing..."

"I'm going to give you my pursuit, and my freedom......" Two young people outside the shop were howling loudly, wearing denim jackets on top, red pants on the bottom, long hair, and ass writhing to the rhythm, they are the non-mainstream of this era, and Cui Jian is their spiritual mentor.

Cui Jian, Black Panther, Tang Dynasty, Compass...... A few years later, the country began to be filled with these shouts, rock music was playing in the streets and alleys, and even the children could hum a few words along with it, Lin Mo used to like these things very much in his previous life, and he also practiced the guitar for a period of time, but unfortunately after breaking up with Liu Na, Ji was broken by himself, and he never regained this hobby after that.
