71, the old man Cheng who threaded the needle
"Cheng family!"
Looking at the small red brick building in front of him, Lin Chao faintly felt a little resistance in his heart.
But this time it was Mr. Cheng who called, and he couldn't refuse it in public or private.
"Here!"
A man stood in the doorway waving.
Take a closer look, it is Cheng Yuanping.
Today, although she is not as serious as in the past, there is still no smile on her face.
The clothes on his body are still so neutral, even in the scorching sun, everything is still wrapped under the clothes.
"Hello!"
Lin Chao greeted with a smile, and continued:
"This is my colleague Zhao Ming, my dad has some important things to deal with today, so I can only take him here to eat."
Cheng Yuanping smiled faintly.
But at this moment, she felt creepy.
It seems that he is being targeted by some fierce beast and is about to be attacked.
The body also became stiff, and he didn't even dare to move.
However, this sudden feeling disappeared abruptly, as if nothing had happened.
Cheng Yuanping's face was a little more puzzled.
The person standing in front of him had a sincere smile on his face, and there was no threat at all.
"Hello, I'm Zhao Ming, an employee of the Beacon Museum, and I will ask for more advice in the future."
Cheng Yuanping glanced at him carefully and did not find anything abnormal.
"Is it a delusion?"
It may be that I have been so lax these days that I am mentally tired.
She secretly blamed herself.
If it is on the battlefield, such a mistake is fatal.
Not only will he die, but he will also affect his teammates.
At this time, Lin Chao asked with some surprise:
"What, what's wrong?"
Cheng Yuanping's face showed a little embarrassment, and she hurriedly said:
"It's nothing, the old man is still waiting at home, let's go back quickly!"
The moment he walked into the small courtyard, Lin Chao was a little stunned.
Old Man Cheng's small courtyard, like his grandfather, was full of all kinds of melons, fruits and vegetables.
At this time, it is harvest season.
This small space is full of red and green fruits.
And an old man with snow-white hair was watering there.
Lin Chao said respectfully.
"Hello old man."
"Humph!"
What is not new is that Old Man Cheng actually snorted.
"When you came to this Jinhuai City, you didn't even report to me at the first time. Do you think I'm old and confused, useless? ”
Lin Chao hurriedly said with a smiling face:
"If these words reach the ears of my old man, if you don't lose your soul today, you will have to be half-paralyzed, you can't hurt me."
Old Man Cheng smiled.
"Your father is a scholar, how energetic he is. Come on, give the old man less eye drops. Let's go to the house and sit, we are old, our bones are missing, and we are sweating when we move. ”
Lin Chao hurriedly took a few steps forward and held Old Man Cheng's arm.
"You go slowly."
Old Man Cheng glanced at him and sighed:
"The old chief was 23 years old when he became the head of the regiment, a year younger than you are now. That year, the Red Army had just broken through the Wujiang River, and the troops suffered heavy casualties. Cadres have to be on the front line, not to mention losses. ”
"At that time, I was an orphan. I don't know who my parents are, I don't know how they died, and I have been asking my uncle for food since I was a child. We were all dying of hunger, thanks to the old chief's saving with a bowl of gruel. ”
"Later, I learned that the person who rescued me was called Lin Hongyi, a senior official in the Red Army. As cadre, our two uncles and nephews had received such favors, and at that time they wanted to join the Red Army. ”
"The old chief was also so worn out that he had no choice but to lead us forward. Climb snowy mountains and cross meadows. If it weren't for him, I'd have died a few more times. ”
"Finally, I was assigned to the old chief's guard as a guard, and I woke up laughing from my dreams. However, when we went to East China to develop, we hit a big nail in the first battle. ”
"It's really hard to deal with the devils, sometimes 5 people, or even 10 people, can fight 1 of them, and my uncle died at this time. I can't count the dead brothers, and many of them can't even find their bones. ”
"Lin Chao, you are now in charge of the museum, don't forget these martyrs. Without their blood, we can't defeat those beasts of the Japanese Kingdom, and we can't establish New China. ”
Lin Chao replied:
"Don't worry! Once the Beacon Museum was relocated to a new site, the Anti-Japanese War Memorial Hall was built. ”
Old Man Cheng listened, and his face showed a solemnity.
"Is there enough money? I don't have a place to spend my salary, so I'll donate it to you! ”
Lin Chao hurriedly said:
"I just got a sponsorship and sold the old building to the developer, so the money is not a problem. You also sponsor out-of-school children who need more help than I do. ”
Old Man Cheng nodded.
"If you have any difficulties, you can mention them directly, call and visit, and when the new museum is completed, don't forget my old man."
Lin Chao replied busily:
"Definitely, definitely."
Old Man Cheng smiled and nodded, but his face tensed again.
"You and Yuanping are also not big, why can't you get together? Your eyes are long, and you don't look at each other a few more times. ”
"Lin Chao, I have long wanted to smoke you little bastard. When I was in high school, I didn't study well, so I ran into the wilderness. I don't know if you think about it, don't you want to get rid of this marriage. ”
"Today, my old man solemnly declares to you that there is no door! Again, tie up the two of you to get married! ”
The older you get, the younger you get.
Looking at Old Man Cheng who was blowing his beard and staring at him, Lin Chao could only nod frequently.
"Yes, yes. I must take a good look at Yuanping, and I will take a few more looks today. ”
Hearing this, Cheng Yuanping was also full of helplessness, so she could only twist her head to the side.
Seeing this, Old Man Cheng snorted again.
"Letting you come today, there's another thing. Wu Yunpu, what are you still hiding in the house, don't you hurry up and come out for me! ”
At that moment, the door opened.
An old man with gray hair walked out quickly.
"Hello Director Lin, I am also borrowing the east wind today, otherwise I am really embarrassed to come to meet you. The matter of the Jinhuai Archaeological Institute, I am really sorry for Ling Zun. ”
Old Man Cheng said unhappily:
"Excuse me? People have gone to this point, the old chief has only been gone for a few years, and he doesn't take his children and grandchildren seriously, you people are all white-eyed wolves. ”
"Wu Yunpu, you are also a soldier of the 9th Company. Later, he became a company commander, battalion commander, and regiment commander, and then transferred to the ministry. Speaking of which, it's also an old chief's soldier, but what you do is called personnel? ”
Wu Yunpu hurriedly distinguished:
"Old man, I didn't expect it either. Tomorrow, I must apologize to Dr. Lin. ”
Lin Chao glanced at him playfully.
"Mr. Wu, if you have anything, just say it! Rounding around the bush, I really don't have Yaxing to accompany me. ”
Old Man Cheng was stunned for a moment, and then said angrily:
"Good boy, you actually ambushed me in the name of apology. If you have anything to say, say it now, and if you dare to play tricks, don't enter this door in the future. ”
Wu Yunpu's face became very embarrassed.
"Director Lin, it's still a matter of the Semi Di project. I heard that you have a hymn to the sun god in your hand, can you ...... it? ”
Lin Chao said coldly:
"There is no need to talk about this matter, I will not accept any conditions. Today, I came to see Mr. Cheng, and I don't want to be disturbed by these things. ”
