190 Old Things, Second Shift

Zhang Yongchang stayed for a while, and he said, "I have to go back, or your grandmother will call me everywhere!" As he spoke, he kept his head down, like a child who had done something wrong.

Zhang Xiaoqiang took a few buns from the kitchen, put them in an empty bowl, and asked her father to take them back to eat. Zhang Yongchang couldn't refuse, so he took the bowl and went back.

Zhang Yang actually ran to the door and saw his father's back in the distance.

Zhang Xiaoqiang said to Zhang Yang: "Come back, Yangwa, no matter what, I don't worry about leaving you in Lao Zhang's house again." I'm afraid, afraid that you will be harmed in any way. ”

Zhang Yang nodded and said, "Sister, I suddenly feel very pitiful for him." ”

"Yes, he is very pitiful, how can a person who can't even control his own fate protect and take care of the two of you?" Zhang Xiaoqiang said meaningfully.

At this time, grandma came out of the house and beckoned to Zhang Xiaoqiang.

Zhang Xiaoqiang entered her grandmother's house, and her grandmother asked her to take off her shoes and sit on the kang.

The mother-in-law and grandson sat on the hot kang, and the grandmother found some clothes worn by Li Aobai and Li Jun, and changed some sizes. She said: "Don't be too old, it's all solid, put it on for the baby." The two babies will follow you in the future, and when the days are tight, save a little. ”

Zhang Xiaoqiang nodded and folded all the clothes.

Grandma's kang head had a big box, and grandma took out two pairs of cotton shoes from it, she said: "This is what I made in advance, I know that you and Baiwa definitely don't like it, so I made a pair for Li Jun, Zhang Yang, and Zhang Chen." You can wear it during the New Year, and the cloth and cotton are new. ”

Zhang Xiaoqiang hugged her grandmother and said, "How could it be." As long as you do it, you like it. ”

Grandma said, "My great-grandson's tiger head shoes are ready, and they are in the box." I'll bring it with me when I get back. Grandma opened the lid of the box and took out the tiger head shoes, which looked like a beautiful and beautiful look.

Zhang Xiaoqiang saw that there were other things in the box, so she said casually: "Grandma, is this your dowry back then?" ”

Grandma shook her head with a smile and said, "We didn't have any dowry at that time, it was the things that the white baby and the military baby had when they were young, and I kept them for my great-grandson." ”

Zhang Xiaoqiang was particularly curious. What would the husband have used when he was a child. She said, "Grandma, do I want to see it?" ”

Grandma said, "Okay, sooner or later it'll be for you." She took out a red bag. Open the knot, and the contents jump into view.

Zhang Xiaoqiang looked at these baby supplies and was a little strange. These are not things that can be used at home, can rough people like Li Dabiao and Shen Cuihua have such delicate things?

She took out a small garment. It is baby clothes. Hand-sewn cotton cloth. This cotton cloth could not be found in such a place, and the babies in the countryside in those days who wore this were not finished with a bag naked.

There is also a pair of small shoes, soft cloth bottom, and the workmanship is equally exquisite. She was fascinated, touched this, looked at this.

Grandma said: "This is what Baiwa used when she was a child, and Li Jun also used it when she was young." I've left it like this. Your mother-in-law is careless. ”

Zhang Xiaoqiang sighed, and her eyes fell on a small quilt. White cotton lining. The plain floral face is so coordinated.

She took out the small quilt and unfolded it to look at it. Suddenly, in the corner of the quilt, there were two words embroidered with gold thread. She took it to the edge of the windowsill and looked at it, and it turned out that the word "Aobai" was two.

Her heart was filled with questions all at once, and she knew that her grandmother didn't know how to read. The words that my father-in-law and mother-in-law knew were also learned in the literacy class later, and my father-in-law learned more, but my mother-in-law knew even less.

These two words are embroidered in italics, and it can be seen that the person who embroiders the words must have written a good hand. Shen Cuihua estimated that she couldn't hold a pen, and she still embroidered words, which was impossible.

Such a small quilt, even in the current countryside, does not use this texture and color. What's more, it was nearly thirty years ago, and at that time, with such an object, it was not an ordinary person.

Grandma was watching Zhang Xiaoqiang staring at these things in a daze, and she said, "Daughter-in-law Baiwa, what's wrong with you?" ”

Zhang Xiaoqiang came back to her senses and said, "It's nothing, I think these children's objects are very cute, I haven't seen them." ”

Grandma said, "You must not have seen it, but when you become a mother, you will know." It is not easy to wear such a small piece of clothing on a newborn soft child. ”

"Yes, hehe, raising children is quite knowledgeable." Zhang Xiaoqiang said.

Grandma smiled and said, "If you have children, I will take them, and make sure that they are white and fat." When Baiwa was a child, she was white and chubby, and everyone loved it when she saw it. ”

Zhang Xiaoqiang said, "Of course, he is very good-looking now, how handsome he is, and he must not be bad when he was a child." ”

Grandma said that she was going to take these things back to the same place, Zhang Xiaoqiang stretched out her hand to block it back and said, "Grandma, I like these children's things so much, can you put them in my house?" ”

Grandma said, "It's okay, put it in your house, and recruit me a big fat great-grandson as soon as possible." ”

Zhang Xiaoqiang still wrapped these objects into the baggage, took the cotton shoes made for her younger brother, and walked out of her grandmother's house.

When she returned to her room, Li Aobaishu was clasped on her face, and she actually fell asleep.

She couldn't bear to wake up, so she pulled the quilt and covered him. Unbeknownst to him, he woke up again, saw his daughter-in-law and said, "The house is warm, and after reading a book for a while, he became sleepy and fell asleep." ”

Zhang Xiaoqiang said: "Aobai, I found something, I have to talk to you." ”

Under Li Aobai's surprised eyes, he opened the baggage and took out the contents inside.

pointed out the words on the small quilt to Li Aobai and said, "Look, your name!" It's still embroidered, do you have such a good craftsman in your family? ”

Li Aobai touched his head and said, "Grandma! ”

Zhang Xiaoqiang said: "You forgot, grandma is illiterate." ”

Li Aobai suffered in a mess in his heart. When I came back this time, there was an important thing, which was something that had bothered me for a long time over the years. It's just that I haven't had the right opportunity to open this mouth, and I don't know how to open it.

What he wanted to be sure of was whether he was biological or not. The words he overheard were not true.

He is now married and married to a daughter-in-law, if he is not born to the Li family, then where did he come from?

A man who is almost thirty years old, he needs to know who he is?

No matter how bad Li Dabiao and his wife are to him, they are also the ones who raised him as adults, and he understands the truth that his parents' kindness is greater than heaven.

If this matter is determined from Li Dabiao's mouth, whether he is biological or not, he will do his best in the future to take care of his parents and grandmother, he is not a ruthless, unrighteous and unfilial person. (To be continued.) )
