28. Last Night

The night before the soldier left, Sun Jiashu received back the military uniform and backpack from the Ministry of Armed Forces, the backpack was made under the guidance of a soldier, he didn't plan to disassemble it after he returned to the army, but the military uniform should be put on in advance to try, Sun Jiashu put the military uniform on his body and looked in the mirror, he learned to be a soldier in the movie and saluted, hey, that salute is so respectful that even he looks awkward, if you tie a red scarf around your neck, you are simply a young pioneer, the military uniform is fat and big, and you walk with the wind, he thought, The rhythmic "swish" sound I heard when watching the National Day military parade on TV is probably this sound. In the future, if you are a soldier, you can't walk so casually, at least like a soldier, you have to hold your head high, you have to throw your arms, you can hear the sound of a fan, this is what a soldier looks like.

I'm going to leave tomorrow, the villagers are all coming to say goodbye, Sun Jiashu originally planned to go to find green leaves, but when he saw this situation, he had to stay at home, the villagers were all coming for him, and it would be too rude for him not to be at home.

Sun Laifu greeted the villagers warmly, the coal fire in the kitchen was not idle for a moment, the teapot squeaked, just boiled a pot and was immediately refilled with cold water, and several large thermos at home were all filled with boiling water; The villagers came one after another, and it was really more lively than the happy event in the village.

In the evening, the last group of villagers finally left, Jiashu touched his weak legs, and thought: Now it's finally time to rest, tomorrow morning to gather at the county armed forces department, and have to sleep well at night, otherwise the next day will be a day without energy, so I said to my parents and went back to my room. As soon as he closed the door and lay on the bed, he heard a knock on the door, who would come at such a late hour? He dragged his shoes and got out of bed and opened the door, and when he saw it, it turned out to be the fourth uncle.

"Oh, it's the fourth uncle, come and sit in the house." Sun Jiashu enthusiastically let the fourth uncle into the house, he always felt that there was one less person during the day, and now it seems that the fourth uncle is missing.

The fourth uncle sighed: "Be quiet, don't let your father hear it." ”

Sun Jiashu knew that the relationship between the fourth uncle and his father had been stiff recently, because his father refused to accept the scales made by the fourth uncle. In the past, many people in the village made the scales to let the father sell, the father is not refused, who would have thought that there was a batch of scale customers recently feedback that there are serious quality problems, a check, all are made by the fourth uncle, the father is angry and will no longer sell the scales made by the fourth uncle, which line? How can people live without sales? The fourth uncle then begged his father to forgive him once, his father just refused to forgive, too, his comrade-in-arms believed that he bought the scale he sat on, but now there is a quality problem, which is more uncomfortable than slapping him, for him, reputation is more important than life, he can't tolerate making such a mistake, his own brother can't do it, the fourth uncle saw that his father didn't forgive, so he tore his face, the two had a big fight, the whole village came out to fight, the fourth uncle said that his father didn't talk about brotherhood, and vowed to cut off brotherhood with his father, But the severance of the relationship between the older generation does not mean that even the next generation is also severed, and it is also appropriate to come to see the nephew, he does not come during the day, and because he fell out with several other uncles when the family was separated a few years ago. If you are afraid of bumping into them during the day, how embarrassing it would be, so I waited until the night when the people were gone, in his opinion, Sun Jiashu will have a great future in the future, and it is okay to ignore his own brother, but his nephew must be ignored.

The fourth uncle took his hand out of his pocket and handed five banknotes worth ten yuan to Jiashu, the banknotes carried his body temperature, and when he came, he saw that there were too many people, and he had been waiting outside. I was holding these banknotes in my hand, and because I had been holding them for too long, the banknotes had been soaked with sweat.

"Jiashu, if you want to be a soldier and leave, I will give you a little pocket money, this is a little bit of my uncle's heart."

"Don't, don't, fourth uncle, you see that I'm so old, I can make money, how can I ask for your money? Besides, in the army it doesn't cost money at all, everything is paid by the government. Sun Jiashu excused himself.

"Now this is exciting, if you don't take it, you just look down on the fourth uncle, it's good to go out or bring more money, a penny can stump the hero, I heard that veterans in the army love to bully recruits, in the army commander dim sum, usually spend a little money to buy some cigarettes for veterans, wine or something, when it should be soft, it will be soft, and you will suffer by your own temperament." The fourth uncle had no intention of taking it back at all.

Sun Jiashu couldn't see it, so he had to take it, "Then thank you Fourth Uncle." ”

"Work hard in the army, and don't forget the fourth uncle when you become an official in the future."

"How can it? Forget no one can forget the fourth uncle, the fourth uncle treats me the dearest, when I was a child, you often went to the movies behind my back, afraid that I wouldn't be able to see, you always let me ride on your neck, I don't know how many times you have been wet. ”

"Do you remember what happened here? I knew you weren't the kind of person to be ungrateful. The fourth uncle suddenly became interested, and simply took off his shoes and sat cross-legged on the bed, looking like he was about to have a long talk, "Once I squeezed you out, I couldn't find it everywhere, and when I got home, I was beaten by your grandfather with a few sticks, but I didn't expect your kid to follow a few older children to hide and seek." ”

Sun Jiashu regretted that he had found such a introduction, this statement was endless, the fourth uncle talked all the way, and finally talked about the family affairs, he first said that the other uncles were wrong, and listed the examples one by one, Sun Jiashu understood, anyway, everyone is sorry for him, everyone owes him, and finally the topic turned to Sun Jiashu's father.

"To tell you the truth, your father looks down on people too much, he collects the scales of other people in the village, but he doesn't accept his own brother's, what brother? It's not as good as an outsider. Speaking of sadness, he actually covered his face and cried, Sun Jiashu didn't know what to do for a while, he knew in his heart that in the heart of the fourth uncle, he was already a promising person, and he wanted to administer justice to him. In fact, Sun Jiashu knows that his father is not wrong, the scales made by his father are sold to his comrades-in-arms, and the people in the village want his father to sell on behalf of him, in order not to disappoint the people in the village, he accepts anyone's scales, but there is only one condition, that is, the quality must be passed, but I didn't expect that the scale made by the fourth uncle had a problem, and it was returned for the first time, which made my father very faceless.

The fourth uncle said that he was spitting Xingzi, and after saying that Sun Jiashu had been half-stretched for so long, he was soaking up his body wet, and the fourth uncle was talking about it, and he was embarrassed to sit far away, so he had to let the fourth uncle spit Xingzi flying, anyway, he just slapped his face with soap after he left.

Sent away the fourth uncle, it was the middle of the night, Sun Jiashu could no longer sleep, the family, the green leaves, and even the whole village had high hopes for him, if Bai was a three-year soldier back, then there would be no face to see people, invisibly, he felt a pressure, a responsibility, this pressure and responsibility will be a potential motivation, prompting him to pay twice as hard as others in the future life journey, because he is no longer an ordinary person.
