After all, my father's leg was not well, and my mother was afraid that my father's leg injury would become inflamed, so she would carefully help my father change the dressing every day and take care of his daily life.

Jiang Sheng said that there is a thing called a wheelchair, which is specially designed for people with inconvenient legs and feet, and people who can't walk can sit on it and shake the wheels with their hands, which is very convenient. My mother went to town for a long time and didn't hear of such a thing.

My father was often suspicious in those days, and he would shout at the slightest movement in the house, thinking that someone was shooting at him again, and sometimes he would be furious when I accidentally touched the dishes and chopsticks.

My father used to sleep very hard at night, but because of the locust incident, he often woke up in the middle of the night and asked my mother to go out to see if the devil was coming.

My father was only halfway done with the wooden bed for us, and on one Sunday my mother asked us to build a new bed for Jiang Sheng at home with her, and moved my little bed to the side house next door.

There are always a few smart people in this world, Shen A-Niang and Qin Changqing both guessed the currency depreciation caused by the war in advance, and came up with a way to buy gold in case of emergency.

By June, major banks and money banks had stopped restricting the exchange of gold, even if they came forward.

On August 15, 1945, the Japanese emperor announced his unconditional surrender, and Peking finally did not have to live in the shadow of devils all day long.

When my mother heard the news, she hurriedly put down her cloak and hurried home, she wanted to tell her father that she would never have to be afraid of the little devils again, and that the little devils had all been driven back to the island.

When my father heard this, he wept with joy, but soon he was immersed in pain, and he became a complete cripple, unable to walk on his legs at all, and unable to do any work.

But just when his father was disheartened, Lao Jiang finally came back.

For three years, Lao Jiang was not heard from, and now he has returned, with silver hair, and he cried when he saw me.

Lao Jiang picked me up and said, "I didn't expect our Jiangrong to grow so tall now, and when I left, I was as tall as a hen." ”

Lao Jiang was even happier when he learned of Jiang Sheng's existence, maybe it was the cruelty of the war that made him surprised to see beautiful things, or maybe he himself was happy to see a grandson who could pass on the lineage to the next generation, in short, he loved Jiang Sheng very much.

Lao Jiang can't do anything about his father's bad luck, no matter how high his medical skills are, he can't turn a disabled person into a normal person, so he can only help his father rub his legs every day to help him have a greater chance of standing up again, or use some Chinese herbs to delay his father's leg bone pain on a rainy day.

My father has been struggling to support him all these years, waiting for Lao Jiang to come back to support him, but after Lao Jiang knew everything, he directly slapped his father, saying that his father was just a waste who would make his relatives angry.

Lao Jiang worked as a military doctor on the front line of the Anti-Japanese War and saved the lives of many soldiers, after all, he was also old, so after the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, the leaders let him return to his hometown.

At that time, Lao Jiang did not know what position he was appointed in the town, and there was a meeting to be held at both ends of the three days, and both the leaders of the organs of Qiantang Town and the police station would personally come to invite Lao Jiang and take Lao Jiang to the restaurant in the town for dinner.

Lao Jiang would bring Jiang Sheng with him every time he went to dinner, he was wearing a Mao suit, Jiang Sheng was wearing a small suit, Lao Jiang felt that he had a lot of face, and sometimes the leaders of the town would joke that Jiang Sheng was Lao Jiang's illegitimate son.

Although Lao Jiang is nearly sixty years old, he is old and strong, and he drinks unambiguously, once Jiang Sheng was drunk at the table, and he was carried home by him on his shoulder.

The town leaders knew that Lao Jiang was not an ordinary person, so on the first day after Lao Jiang returned, he began to build a house behind our house in Sanlitun and give it to him.

Lao Jiang was so enthusiastic that he had to accept the house, and there were a lot of flowers and plants in the yard, and he worked all day long, and when he was idle, he still picked up his old profession, became a local doctor on patrol, fiddled with medicinal materials, or took Jiang Sheng out to see a doctor.

Jiang Sheng was occupied by Lao Jiang all those days, and sometimes he couldn't go to school, and once Jiang Sheng came back from outside and gave me a radio, which Lao Jiang took in the office of the town leader.

Lao Jiang at that time was also a trend-chasing person, and took Jiang Sheng to take photos twice.

After Japan's defeat and evacuation, the country, which had not yet recovered from the economy, broke out a war again, and the currency was devalued like never before. A year and a half ago, a steamed bun was one yuan, but later it rose to five yuan, and now it has risen to three or five hundred yuan, and sometimes you have to carry a basket of paper money when you go to the street to buy vegetables.

Those who are really rich are those who have gold in their hands, and gold naturally has its reason as a transaction currency that has not changed for thousands of years, Zhao Fugui's family doesn't know how many jars of gold bars have been buried, and Uncle Qin's hall doesn't know how many gold bars he has hoarded.

Fortunately, at that time, every family in Sanlitun farmed, otherwise I don't know how many people would starve to death.

If Lao Jiang is not there, his mother doesn't know how to shoulder the financial burden of the next family, if Lao Jiang goes out for a meeting, he will always take Jiang Sheng to ask for something, and he will not charge a medical fee for the rounds, but will collect a few catties of food as a reward.

Jiang Sheng lived very comfortably in that half a year, Lao Jiang can be said to be the only elder who made him rely on him in every way since he came to Sanlitun, Jiang Sheng sometimes got up early and ran to Lao Jiang's house to lift his quilt, Lao Jiang was so angry that he jumped to his feet and did not scold Jiang Sheng.

After winter came, Jiang Sheng still went to the clinic with Lao Jiang every day, and he looked like Lao Jiang's follower with the medicine box.

In the thirtieth year of the Chinese New Year's Eve, our family of five could finally sit together and have a good meal, and my father never dared to disobey in front of the veteran, let alone speak loudly, but he couldn't let go of the incident that his uncle and grandmother's family came to Sanlitun to make trouble, so he let Lao Jiang give him an idea.

"What else can I think, you broke someone's arm, and even Xiumei and her mother were cut off, what else is there to say?" Lao Jiang snorted and said.

Seeing that his father bowed his head and was silent, Lao Jiang continued: "I'll go to the town tomorrow, and by the way, I'll help you take a look at that Zhang Laibao, my grandson's five hundred oceans, and I can't say it to whoever I want to give it to." ”

The next day, Lao Jiang led Jiang Sheng to the town, first chatted and drank tea with the director of the police station at the police station, and then took Jiang Sheng to see a doctor.

Lao Jiang said: "Old sister-in-law, when I was not at home, Zhengyang's child was thanks to your care. ”

Grandma smiled and said: "It's all as it should be, your family doesn't have to be so polite." ”

"That's just as well." Lao Jiang said. "My family's son died early, Zhengyang didn't have much maternal love when he was a child, so I rarely let him suffer, but now he can't walk on both legs, although the main reason is him, but the five hundred oceans are also scary enough, think about the current flood of currency, only gold and Yuan Datou can not be flooded."

Grandma kept laughing, and didn't dare to pick up Lao Jiang's topic at all, Lao Jiang brought all the fried dishes to Jiang Sheng and let him eat, not saving any face for Grandma's family, he said: "Since the old sister-in-law doesn't want to mention the past, then I'll get straight to the point, and give me five hundred Yuan Datou within three days, otherwise these five hundred Yuan Datou, I'm afraid your family can't afford it." ”

Grandma cried when she heard Lao Jiang's words, she didn't dare to splash, so she had to kneel down and beg Lao Jiang and said: "Father-in-law, didn't you want my life, the original money was for my son Laibao, the matter was urgent, and I made a mistake in my money-obsessed mind, you see that I and one of my ears were cut off and now I remember it vividly, you just let me go." ”

Lao Jiang snorted and said: "It is natural to repay debts, your son is a human being, but other people's sons are not?" That money is my grandson Jiang Sheng's money, and for an insatiable person like you, I naturally have a way to govern you. ”

After Lao Jiang finished speaking, he asked Jiang Sheng if he was full, Jiang Sheng nodded, so Lao Jiang overturned the table at his grandmother's house and spilled the food on the ground.

Lao Jiang led Jiang Sheng out of the door, ignoring the crying and wailing behind him, and went straight into a casino.

"Grandpa, what are we doing here?" Jiang Sheng asked.

Lao Jiang said: "Drunkards can't borrow wine, and gamblers can't borrow gambling, Jiang Rong's uncle must be in these gambling houses." ”
