It seems that it is time for lunch to eat, and it is better to go back after lunch.

Thinking of this, Jiang Yu grabbed Chang Qingwu's hand and said, "The boat will naturally go straight to the bridge, it will be fine, and it just so happens that we are almost there." Let's go pick up the old man, have a meal, and go back. ”

Chang Qingwu thought for a while, nodded, and said, "Hmm." ”

After agreeing, she suddenly showed a sly smile and said, "After I go back, I want to take a good look at which cows, ghosts, snakes, and gods are jumping around behind their backs." ”

Jiang Yu smiled slightly, took Chang Qingwu's hand, and walked towards the original place.

When the two of them went back, they saw the old man sitting on the stone bench at a glance, and he had been waiting for them for a long time.

Old Man Chang couldn't help but smile when he saw the two of them and said, "You two are back?" Why don't you play a little longer? Looking at the two men holding hands again, his eyes were about to narrow into a line.

Chang Qingwu smiled and said, "We're not afraid that grandpa, you're here alone, it's boring!" So I want to come back early and spend more time with my grandfather and your old man. ”

"Haha, what else do you want from my old man, I sit here to eat and drink, and there are so many old friends to accompany me, what's boring." Old Man Chang said happily.

Chang Qingwu glanced at Chang Lao helplessly, if he was allowed to stay here until sunset, he would definitely be willing.

At this time of year, it can be said that grandpa is the saddest and happiest day.

The sad thing is probably the departure of their comrades-in-arms, but the happy thing is that they can pass through another situation, walking between yin and yang, commemorating each other.

"We didn't look at the time, we just thought that you must be hungry at this time, so I came back to eat with you." Jiang Yu held Chang Lao's other hand and said with a smile.

Old Man Chang looked at the time, only to find that before he knew it, the time was almost twelve o'clock.

Here, time flies the fastest,

"Okay, it's really not too early. Let's go eat. After speaking, Old Man Chang looked at these old comrades-in-arms reluctantly.

Stretched out his hand and saluted a standard salute, before slowly turning around and taking Chang Qingwu and Jiang Yu down the mountain.

On the way down the mountain, Old Man Chang suddenly said: "I remember that there is a restaurant at the bottom of the mountain that cooks very good food, let me take you there!" ”

Chang Qingwu and Jiang Yu nodded, this place is still familiar to Old Man Chang, and there is nothing wrong with following Old Man Chang.

Under the leadership of Mr. Chang, the two came to a restaurant that looked a little old, and when they entered the door, they found that there were really many people inside.

It is estimated that this hotel is not afraid of deep alleys due to the smell of wine, and there are no waiters, let alone any good decoration, so the boss and the proprietress and their children help to work together.

Old Man Chang walked in, found a corner place to sit down, and then ordered food and asked Jiang Yu to talk to the proprietress.

Jiang Yu took the menu and reported the dishes ordered to the proprietress, and the proprietress did not take a pen to record it, but smiled at Jiang Yu and said, "Okay." ”

Then he turned and went to the kitchen.

Jiang Yu was surprised, this proprietress has such a good memory, since she can not remember the name of the dish, won't she send it wrong?

He sat down in his chair with a full of doubts.

Soon the dishes came up, and Jiang Yu saw that the four dishes were really right, and there was no confusion.

Old Man Chang seemed to see Jiang Yu's doubts, smiled and took off the pocket watch on his chest, and said, "This is practice makes perfect, you don't need to write it down, because you are already familiar with it." ”

Jiang Yu knew that Old Man Chang was talking about this dish, smiled slightly, his eyes fell on the pocket watch, and asked suspiciously: "Grandpa, why do you always bring this fast pocket watch when you come here every year?" ”

Is there any untold story in this embrace?

Old Man Chang didn't answer Jiang Yu first, but silently glanced at the pocket watch on the table, and said slowly after taking a sip of wine: "This...... The owner of this watch ......"

Jiang Yu saw that there was something wrong with Chang Lao's expression, and he also frowned slightly.

It seems that this watch still evokes bad memories of the old man.

Chang Qingwu was just about to divert the topic, when he heard the old man Chang say: "During the Anti-Japanese War, there was a young man who came back from abroad, with great ambition, and wanted to change the country with thousands of holes. ”

Speaking of this, Chang Lao took a bite of the food before he said slowly: "This young man, full of revenge and idealism, he thought about it for a long time, and finally, he decided to teach the advanced knowledge he learned abroad to the Chinese people to change the world. ”

Jiang Yu and Chang Qingwu looked at Chang Lao in puzzlement, does this story have anything to do with this pocket watch?

But since Chang Lao said so, it must be meaningful, and the two of them sat on the chair like elementary school students and listened to Chang Lao continue to tell the story.

Old Man Chang's eyes looked into the distance, as if he was returning to the past eventful years.

But he failed.

Because on the second day of his teaching, he was invaded by the Japanese army. The school was bombed to rubble, and his students were killed.

He was sad, he was angry, and then everything was to no avail, he was just a defenseless teacher, and in the face of the catastrophe, he was so powerless, so small.

He stayed in the ruins of the school for three days and three nights, and finally he figured out that the only way to make the motherland strong in this era was to solve the problem from the root, so on the fourth day he left and embarked on the road of joining the army without hesitation.

"And then?" Chang Qingwu, who could listen attentively, couldn't help but ask.

Chang Lao looked at Chang Qingwu and said with a smile: "The war has been fought for many years, but this young man is lucky to survive. Through the campaign, his rank is constantly rising, however, this is not the most important thing, the most important thing is that the war is over and we are victorious. Peace has once again been restored to this land. Speaking of this, the old man Chang stopped and filled himself with a glass.

The happiness in the heart can only be expressed by the wine in front of you.

After drinking this sip of wine, Elder Chang breathed a long sigh of relief before continuing: "Xiao Jiang, do you think the story told by grandpa is good? ”

Jiang Yu, who was suddenly named, looked at Chang Lao and found that his grandfather was really old, and the white hair on his temples seemed to have a lot more in just one day.

He is a doctor, and although he can prolong life, he cannot make people immortal.

He understands better than anyone else that the reason why he can rise to prominence is that in addition to his own excellent skills, there is a more important reason, which is the status of Chang Lao.

It's not that his position is obtained through Chang Lao's status, but if he doesn't know Chang Lao, no one will know him at all.

This is like a dark orchid blooming in a hollow valley, no matter how fragrant it is, no one cares about it.

It was only when it was transplanted to the big cities that no one noticed its existence.

And Chang Lao is the transplanted person.

"Grandpa, your story is well told." Jiang Yu said with a smile.

Chang Lao laughed and said: "Haha, it's not that I speak well, but this young man knows where his path is, in the war years, those who have the ability to defend the country will defend the country, and in the era of peace, it is the same, but everyone's responsibility is different, as the so-called greater ability, the greater the responsibility." Don't waste what God has given you. ”

After speaking, Chang Lao took another sip of wine.

Chang Qingwu originally blocked it, but was gently blocked by Jiang Yu.

Jiang Yu looked at Old Man Chang's eyes, and finally understood why his grandfather was telling this story, he was reminding himself.

Yes, with great power comes great responsibility.

In fact, he has been thinking about this recently, thinking about whether to do something more ambitious.

Since the last time he talked to Secretary Huang, although he had this idea, but he had no intention of acting, at this moment, listening to Chang Lao's words, the thoughts in his heart began to move, but he still did not make a clear decision.

He clearly knew that once he chose to go in, he would enter the palace gate as deep as the sea, and it would be difficult to come out again.

So he still had no way to make a decision, so he had to say, "Grandpa, I know what you mean, I will think about your words." ”

Old Man Chang couldn't help but smile and said: "It's good if you understand, the road is your own, and the more you go, the more open it is, it's the right way." ”

Chang Qingwu, who had not spoken, said in order not to let the scene cool down: "Okay, grandpa, hurry up and eat, the dishes are going to be cold." ”

"Yes, don't say it, don't say it, let's eat quickly!" Old Man Chang picked up his chopsticks and beckoned Jiang Yu and Chang Qingwu to eat too.

After drinking and eating, Chang Qingwu asked suspiciously: "Grandpa, you were patronizing and telling stories just now, and you haven't told me yet, where did this pocket watch come from?" Why do you bring it here every year on the day of Chung Yeung Festival? ”

"Haha, this watch was given to me by the young man I told you just now."

When Chang Qingwu heard this, he asked even more surprised: "That grandpa, this grandpa is ...... now?"

Old Man Chang sighed heavily and said, "He is also lying there now, do you know what he told me before he died?" ”

Jiang Yu and Chang Qingwu both turned sideways and looked at Old Man Chang.

Old Man Chang picked up the embrace in his hand, put it on his chest, as if he was swearing to the party flag, and said: "Mind the world!" ”

These four words made Chang Qingwu and Jiang Yu awe-inspired.

This veteran, who has passed away, has always practiced these four words.

Mind the world.

What a big word, but he really did it!

At this time, Old Man Chang took down the pocket watch on his chest, handed it to Jiang Yu, and said solemnly: "Xiao Jiang, grandpa will give you this watch today, you have to take good care of it." ”

Jiang Yu looked at the pocket watch in front of him, not knowing if he could take the four words "Caring for the World".
