Wang Erwu has been living with his grandfather since he was three years old, because his grandmother died early, and his parents were busy taking care of their own stalls, so they didn't have much time to accompany Wang Erwu, so most of the time, their grandparents were alone. Although Wang Erwu's parents left early and returned late, after all, everyone still lived together, and although they were not rich, the family was happy.

In the early 90s, most of the suburbs of this third-tier city were still rows of bungalows. This kind of house structure is somewhat similar to the courtyard house, except that it is not surrounded by a courtyard, but lined up, generally the bedroom and kitchen of this kind of house are separated, and there is a two-meter aisle in between, like two parallel lines, one of which is for residents, and the other is for cooking and stacking sundries. At that time, there was no separate toilet, and at the very end of the bungalow, near the kitchen, there would be a communal toilet. Of course, there is a drainage ditch in front of each house, and when a child pees, it is usually solved anywhere.

The first and last of the bungalows are not the same as the middle houses, and in today's terms, they are villa-level, because they each have a large courtyard, and this courtyard alone is larger than the combined living area of the average three-family family. Therefore, such a yard can be planted with flowers and vegetables, and even a pond can be placed to raise fish. Wang Erwu's grandfather lived in the third room of Shunshu, and Wang Erwu's parents lived in the room next door to them. In summer and autumn, when the weather is warm, families will move their tables to the aisle, eat, play chess, and enjoy the shade. So at that time, the neighbors were quite familiar, unlike today, the elevator room, even if it is next door or the opposite door, they don't necessarily know each other, let alone the door or something.

Wang Er, five or six years old, began to study in elementary school, many children of the same age live in this area, at that time, the little friends, five minutes can complete the assembly, unlike the current students, just the residence is a few hours apart. Wang Erwu was very smart when he was young, and he had the most ghost ideas, and he naturally did a lot of "bad" things.

When he was a child, he found a new thing, there was a kind of medicine for mosquito bites in that era, called "wind oil essence", this thing is a little cool on the body, but also a little spicy, many adults have a headache, but also use it to apply it to the temples, very effective. Wang Erwu took this kind of thing, but not to fight with mosquitoes, he made a hard plastic shell with scissors into a "boat" shape, and then coated the tail of the plastic with wind oil essence, so that the "boat" coated with wind oil essence was put into the water, and the "boat" was like a speedboat, which would automatically move forward. Of course, when I was young, no one would know what the principle was, but I just thought it was novel and fun. At that time, their venue was very limited, Wang Erwu would take a group of children to the nearby lotus pond, the water in this place is not deep, and the nearby residents planted lotus roots to sell for money, so in a "boat" speed competition, countless children fell into the mud.

"Two-five! It's all your fault, I fell into the dung pit! What can I do? When you go home, you will be scolded to death by your father! A little innocent said.

When he was a child, Wang Erwu was very imposing, "You are stupid! Isn't that simple? So he secretly dug up the lotus root planted by someone else's family and handed it to the child, "Just tell your parents that they know that they are working hard, so I specially picked the lotus root and came back to honor them, so that they will not beat you!" ”

The child was skeptical, "Really? ”

"Don't worry! I'm going to try this trick in front of my grandfather! ”

Later, when the child came home, he was still beaten, not because he fell into the mud, but because he stole someone else's lotus root.

At that time, Wang Erwu was very appealing among the children, because of him, the children would work hard to wash their parents' clothes when they came home every day, and a child was puzzled at that time, so he ran over and asked Wang Erwu, "Why do you wash clothes with your parents every day?" ”

Wang Erwu replied quietly, "Shhh Be quiet, don't you know? If you're lucky, you'll probably be able to wash out the money inside your parents' dirty clothes! So, the questioning child decisively joined the ranks of washing the clothes for his parents.

Wang Erwu's grandfather is very fond of Wang Erwu, not to mention beating, even scolding is less, but grandpa always educates him, "Erwu, our Erwu is so beautiful!" A little handsome man, haha. So, when you grow up, you have to be a good person! As long as we are of good character, no matter whether we have money in the future or not, we are all men who stand up to the sky! Wang Erwu only remembered that his grandfather praised him for being handsome every time, and as for the other words, he took them as the wind in his ears, and still stole other people's taro and sweet potatoes to roast and eat, so that the neighbors were as cautious as if they were thieves every day.

Wang Erwu's ancestors were all figures with heads and faces, but due to various reasons, his great-grandfather (great-grandfather) generation came to an end, so his grandfather was only a carpenter, and later because of an operation error, he cut off two fingers, and he has been at home for the elderly and has not taken the job. As he gets older and older, his grandfather's body is not as good as a year, but in order to make a wooden car for Erwu, he keeps tinkering and fiddling every day, because his fingers are inconvenient, and it takes more time than a year to complete, therefore, Erwu is the first local car to sit on, although it is only wooden, but there are still countless people who envy it.

When he was idle, his grandfather would push the car and take Erwu to go shopping, although Erwu was almost seven years old at the time, but in his grandfather's heart, he would always be his favorite child.

In order to steal the grapes in the yard next door to eat, Erwu took out the rat poison put by others in the corner and fed it to the wolf dog who watched the yard, and the result is conceivable, the wolf dog was poisoned. Erwu knew that he was in trouble, and he was in a mess for a while, and he didn't know how, so he thought about "disposing of the corpse" in his mind, but there were high walls and locks in people's yards, and he couldn't get in at all, and the wolf dog was poisoned in the yard, and he couldn't help it, so he lit a fire, and originally thought of burning the body of the wolf dog, but who knows, he set other people's yards on fire.

Erwu came home in a panic, hiding and not daring to go out, after the grandfather knew, he took down the charge himself, saying that he was drunk and accidentally ...... At that time, Erwu's family didn't make much money, and it was just in time for Erwu's parents to go to other places, so his grandfather hid this matter. In the end, after negotiating with the neighbors, the grandfather compensated the love token with his grandmother.

Erwu's grandmother left early, and Erwu never saw his grandmother, but he knew his grandfather's feelings for his grandmother, and sometimes, grandpa would hide at home alone to look at grandma's photos, and then cry. At that time, Wang Erwu was still young, I didn't know why my grandfather was crying, and then I slowly grew up, and I understood a little, an old man, his children are not around, he is very lonely, and occasionally thinks of those times when he was young and grandma, and grandpa must be very nostalgic. It can be seen how precious the token of love between him and his grandmother is! How important!

Seeing his grandfather crying sadly, Wang Erwu knew that he had committed a mortal sin, "Grandpa, I'm sorry, I made you unhappy." ”

"Silly boy! Grandpa is old, there haven't been a few years, you are still young, so you have to think clearly about the consequences of doing things, man, it doesn't matter if you make mistakes, the key is to be able to realize your mistakes, and then correct them well! You know? Also, be optimistic, don't cry when you have nothing to do! Only when you are optimistic will you be brave enough to discover what you have done wrong, if you make a mistake, you will only cry, and if you are pessimistic, you will become cowardly, and in the end, you will not correct these bad things. Wang Erwu's grandfather touched Wang Erwu's head with his left hand, his grandfather was not left-handed, but because the severed finger of his right hand was afraid of scaring the child, he developed the habit of using his left hand.

"Twenty-five, children can't steal other people's things casually, even if it's food! If you don't develop good habits from an early age, you will become bad when you grow up! ”

"Well, grandpa, I know it's wrong, and I won't be in the future."

"Then you promise grandpa that you will be a good person when you grow up!"

"Grandpa, don't worry! I will definitely be a good person! Be a person who helps others! ”

"Well, Erwu! Grandpa will definitely not be able to accompany you for a lifetime, can you learn to be independent yourself? ”

"Yes! Erwu will rely on his own efforts to let grandpa live a good life! ”

"It's rare that you are so young, you have a filial piety, and when you grow up in the future, you must also maintain your original intention of kindness! Like grandpa, although I didn't have any great achievements in this life, when I was old, I didn't do anything that I owed others in my life! Anything, with a clear conscience! Apart from...... Didn't take good care of your grandma! "As he spoke, Erwu's grandfather was in tears again, "Erwu, I don't know if grandpa can still see the day you marry a wife and have children, but you have to remember that in the future, you should be better to your wife, and when heaven and man are separated, it will be too late......."

Wang Erwu didn't know how his grandmother died, and occasionally heard them say that it seemed that he had some serious illness......

As the days passed, Erwu's parents began to go out, and all the things that took care of Erwu fell on his grandfather. Grandpa's body is actually not as good as day by day, and his hands and feet are a little trembling unconsciously, so every day when Wang Erwu goes to school, he starts to cook, because it is inconvenient to move, almost every day when Wang Erwu comes home from school at noon and evening, and the meal is just on the table. Wang Erwu naturally didn't know about this.

"Twenty-five! Do you want grandpa to accompany you to fight monsters today? It's grandpa's turn to play the monster, right? Ha ha. ”

"Dinosaur Super Kesai! Haha, look at the knife! ”

"Come on! Monsters are on the attack! ”

"Grandpa, run faster, the monster is much faster than you......"

Although Erwuyi has grown up every day, in his grandfather's heart, he will always be a child, so Wang Erwu still has a childlike innocence, and sometimes he will seem particularly naïve.

When Wang was twenty or fifty years old, his father found a recipe for a drink, so he took his mother to a coastal city to learn from experience, at that time their family had some savings, and bought a house in the city, considering that it was inconvenient for grandpa, so he bought the first floor, but grandpa felt that the city was too noisy, or the old house in the suburbs was comfortable to live in, so he moved back alone. The second and fifth are temporarily taken care of by their grandmother.

Wang Erwu's grandfather didn't want to live with Wang Erwu, the two of them had been dependent on each other for so long, where did he give up, he just thought that his body was not as good as day by day, and he didn't want to become a burden, so he said to Erwu before leaving, "Erwu, you live in the city, and it is convenient to go to school, grandpa wants to live a quiet life alone." ”

"Grandpa, I don't want you!"

"Silly boy, don't cry! The boy has tears and doesn't flick. Moreover, our family is the most handsome, and it doesn't look good if you shed tears, do you remember what grandpa taught you? ”

"Remember! Be a good person! Also, be independent! Be optimistic! ”

"Awesome! You can't always think about letting grandpa take care of you, you have to learn to be independent first, and then take care of grandpa in the future, right? ”

"Well, I will!"

"To be a man, you have to make yourself happy first, so that others can be happy, if you cry your nose, grandpa will be sad, if you live happily, grandpa will also be very happy, this is called emotional contagion, understand?"

Wang Erwu nodded, revealing a smile, "Grandpa, I understand!" ”

"Yes, our family can definitely do it! Little handsome guy! Grandpa went back......"

Wang Erwu's grandfather lived alone in the suburbs, and in less than two months, he suffered a stroke, and he became unrecognizable, and his brain was no longer clear.

At that time, Wang Erwu was only in the fifth grade of primary school, and he forcibly suspended school for a year regardless of anyone's opposition, took his grandfather back to the city, and stayed with him every day. At that time, my grandfather was paralyzed and needed to travel in a wheelchair, but my grandfather was a very strong person, and thanks to his own efforts and Wang Erwu's help, he could barely start walking a few steps. When the weather is good, Wang Erwu will push his grandfather to take a wheelchair to look around, after all, the prosperity of the city is not comparable to the suburbs, although he doesn't know whether his grandfather knows what is a street lamp or what is a telephone pole, but he is still patiently saying.

"Grandpa, I want to eat!"

"You're grandpa, I'm Erwu! Grandpa is what I call you, you know? Don't scream. ”

"Okay, eat!"

Wang Erwu carefully fed with a small spoon, and sometimes grandpa would naughtily spray Wang Erwu's face, and then look at Wang Erwu and smirk. It's strange that before Wang was twenty or fifty years old, he was always taken care of by his grandfather, but now it's the other way around, his grandfather's IQ has stayed at five or six years old, and Wang Erwu is more like a little brother. Two "children" frolicked every day.

"Grandpa, it's you playing the monster today."

"Okay, you can't punch me in the face."

"Okay, you are not allowed to eat anything you picked up on the ground, and when you go out, you are not allowed to pick the flowers planted in the community. Didn't you educate me before, saying that you can't steal other people's things, and the flowers in this community are also public property, you know? ”

Wang Erwu got up to help his grandfather fetch water and wash his face, and when he returned to the living room, the house was already in chaos.

"Grandpa! What are you doing? ”

"Erwu, I was wrong, can you give me a cigarette to smoke?"

"The doctor said, you can't smoke anymore, I threw out everything you can't find!"

Grandpa was full of unhappiness and began to play tricks, usually in such a situation, when grandpa played the monster, Wang Erwu would shout, "Time stops!" Then Grandpa obediently cooperated, motionless, and naturally fell asleep accidentally. When it's time to eat, Wang Erwu will shout, "Time runs!" "Then Grandpa will immediately become very lively, the first two months, Grandpa recovered very well, basically able to move around on his own, but his mind is still only a few years old.

Once, Wang Erwu went out to the supermarket to buy something, but his grandfather was addicted to smoking, so he secretly followed out. Wang Erwu didn't see his grandfather when he went home, he was scared into a cold sweat, and finally found his grandfather smoking a cigarette by the flower bed in the community. Then he sneakily followed behind a stranger.

"Grandpa, why did you sneak out! Scared the hell out of me. ”

"You don't understand, this Yunnan smoke is softer, the northern smoke is a little spicy, and the imported smoke is too strong, so I want to think about it, or local smoke is more suitable for me."

"Okay, okay, you're knowledgeable, let's go home!"

"Wait, I've been waiting for a long time, that person smokes a local cigarette, he has smoked three cigarettes in a row, I don't believe it, he can still smoke the third cigarette until he has the butt left!"

"What? Didn't I tell you that you can't pick up and eat things on the ground? ”

"I didn't eat! I'm sucking! ”……

Nine months later, Wang Erwu's grandfather suffered a second stroke, and this time, he could barely speak or walk anymore. Wang Erwu told stories to his grandfather every day, and from time to time he had to wipe the saliva that flowed out of his grandfather.

Grandpa never responded to Wang Erwu's words, just looked at a place stupidly, motionless, and sometimes sat for hours.

"Grandpa, come, wash your face. Shrewd. ”

"Grandpa, now that Erwu has grown up, is sensible, and handsome, so, Erwu's grandfather should also be handsome and wash his face, so that our grandfather and grandson will not be embarrassed when they go out, isn't it?"

In the past two months, my grandfather's condition has become more and more serious, and he has slept for more than 16 hours a day. When grandpa woke up, Wang Erwu would push grandpa out for a walk and breathe fresh air.

The tragic day finally came, Wang Erwu pushed his grandfather to watch the scenery on the side of the road in the community, and a three-wheeled motorcycle drove over, because both of them were standing far away from the roadside, and they didn't care too much, but a child suddenly rushed out of the roadside, and the motorcycle driver was forced to make a sharp turn, and the front of the car slammed into Wang Erwu. It stands to reason that Grandpa was completely unconscious and paralyzed, but at that moment! Grandpa's eyes lit up, and he suddenly rushed up from the wheelchair and pushed Wang Erwu away, which may be the power of love, so that a paralyzed old man with dementia protected his grandson like a condition, but he fell in a pool of blood......

Wang Erwu couldn't remember too many details, maybe he deliberately wanted to erase those details, he only remembered that the moment his grandfather left, he was able to speak.

"Two-five! Don't cry! Be a strong kid! Remember what Grandpa taught you, be a good person! Be an independent person! Be an optimistic person! Grandpa is going to reunite with your grandma, you should be happy, come, smile at grandpa again, let grandpa always remember, our good grandson, is a handsome and happy young man! "The moment grandpa was angry, Wang Erwu didn't cry! He smiled, and smiled brightly......

(This is a real thing, and I hope you will feel something profound.) Many readers think that Wang Erwu's character is made, the rich second generation should not be so funny, there was a simple explanation in the book review area before, but there are no spoilers, writing here, everyone should be able to understand why Erwu's character is like this. The character of each character in the book, as well as the development of the story, has actually left foreshadowing, which will slowly unfold for everyone in the work...... ）
