Chapter 210: Veterans Don't Die
(Read more)
Tang Lin was carefully observing and distinguishing, but he didn't see any flaws, or it wasn't that Huang Doudou's acting skills were too high, but that she could do this kind of thing in the blink of an eye!
For Huang Doudou, she can't use common sense and ordinary psychology to analyze at all, and for her, she must always prepare for the worst!
"Soybeans, what tools does the old man usually use to work in the vegetable greenhouse?" So he asked, looking at death as if he were at home.
"Well, there are hoes, shovels, shovels, hammers, and nothing else, why do you ask this? You're going to help with the work, huh? Don't say I didn't warn you, if you are relied on by the old man, don't leave these five acres of land in your life, I don't want to marry a farmer who farms! Hmph" Huang Doudou is still not afraid of heaven and earth, and it seems that he has returned to the arrogant state before the slap incident overnight.
But Tang Lin, who was originally so nervous that he broke out in a cold sweat, immediately relaxed, his face was instantly full of smiles, and he looked up at the clouds on the horizon and the sunset on the mountains.
"Today's sunset is so beautiful!"
Huang Doudou, who was tired of enjoying a good time on him, was stunned for a moment, looked at his happy and slightly obscene expression, and pouted Lao Gao, "Cut, you saw through it, it's boring!" But how did you find out? My performance was seamless! ”
Tang Lin pouted, "Little brat, you're far behind!" Tell me, what the hell is the old man looking for me in a hurry? Is the old man really serving vegetables in the greenhouse? ”
Huang Doudou suddenly became a little sad again, "I don't know what to do with you, I don't think it's good, I desperately said that you were busy before, and you couldn't come back after following Sister Huang out of the house, but he didn't believe it at all." ”
"The old man has been a little strange lately, he used to only stay in the greenhouse for 2 hours a day, when the sun was at its best, but recently he stayed for most of the day, and the health doctor also advised the captain of the guard to persuade him, but whoever persuaded him to scold whom, I don't know who offended him!"
After Huang Doudou finished speaking, she also raised her head to look at the clouds in the sky, which were rare burning clouds in the city, but Huang Doudou was used to it, she just watched it because she followed Tang Lin to watch it.
Then he suddenly asked a very personal question, "I heard that men also have menopause, do you think the old man is in menopause for the second time?" ”
Tang Lin immediately withdrew his eyes when he heard this, and turned around and walked towards the vegetable greenhouse, "I'll go find him myself, don't follow, whoever follows is unlucky!" ”
Huang Doudou was unconvinced and walked a few steps forward, and finally stopped, she was not afraid of bad luck, to say that the only person in this compound who was not afraid of the old man was her, she actually grew up and matured, she felt that the old man suddenly had a strange temper and saw who scolded and who suddenly wanted to see Tang Lin, there must be something to tell him alone, it was not appropriate for her to go in.
So she stopped again and continued to look up at the clouds in the sky, muttering as she watched, today's clouds are so ugly!
Tang Lin didn't look back or look at her, but walked into the vegetable greenhouse with firm steps, without knocking on the door or shouting a report.
The blood color of the setting sun shines into the greenhouse through the roof of the vegetable greenhouse, and the vegetables and fruits that were originally green and vibrant are suddenly painted with a dazzling golden yellow.
The old man sat hunched over an old chaise longue, breathing gently, and wearing a straw hat, exactly like that worn by an old peasant in the countryside.
The old man fell asleep, and such a sleeping position made people feel pitiful and old.
Tang Lin slowly approached, and stood less than 2 meters away from the old man, without speaking, standing straight, like the flagpole of a military flag, like a statue in the desert of Saibei.
He stood there for an hour, until the sun had completely set, and the four fields were pitch black, and there was no light except for a few dim temperature lamps.
The old man finally woke up, instinctively moving his sore arms that did not obey the call, reaching out with difficulty to hammer the camel's old high hunchback, but did not look back!
"At least you're in a good military stance...... Now there are few soldiers who can even stand well in a military posture......" The old man's voice seemed empty and hoarse in the darkness of the four fields.
But he was full of confidence, completely lost the twilight and pity that he had just fallen asleep, and changed into a person in an instant!
Tang Lin still stood straight, motionless, as if he really stood like a statue, as if he couldn't speak. The old man tried to get up from the deck chair, there was heating in the vegetable greenhouse, and the temperature was constant.
The old man stood with the same difficulty, and even almost fell down twice, but Tang Lin still didn't move, let alone stepped forward to help, and didn't even mean to reach out to help.
In Tang Lin's heart, as long as the old man still has his last breath, he doesn't need others to help, reaching out to help is the biggest insult to the old soldier in front of him, the god of war, as long as he still has a breath, he will get up!
The old man finally stood up, and finally glanced back at Tang Lin, "Boy, if you were born decades earlier, Lao Tzu will take you to the battlefield and take you to fight in the south and north, you are really going to die Lao Tzu will give you a mat and bury you on the spot!" ”
Tang Lin had tears rolling in his eyes, but he quickly held it back, because he had a feeling that the old man's time was short!
In fact, what the old man said just now was the opposite, he was a soldier, a special forces soldier who had been on the battlefield in peacetime, so he understood, deeply understood.
What the old man meant: he wants to die, he wants to die on the battlefield of the charge, not to let the years sculpt and die silently in the end!
He knew that the old man was actually waiting for death when he spent most of the day in his vegetable patch, but how could it be so easy to wait for death?
What's more, he still has a wish unfulfilled!
So he was lonely, he wanted to find a companion, but no matter how he thought about it, he didn't have a companion, and he was gone. Finally he remembered the boy he had chased to the city hall and slapped him, so he called him.
"Eat whatever you like, the vegetables and fruits here are all grown by me, and the food is clean and steady!" The old man sat back on the chaise longue again, and had no intention of leaving, and of course no matter how anxious the people outside were, no one dared to disturb them.
Tang Lin finally moved, without the slightest hesitation, and suddenly changed from a statue to a living person, the old man looked at his young body and smiled, "Hehe, boy, you can't eat Lao Tzu in vain, when Lao Tzu dies, you go to stand in front of Lao Tzu's grave for a while on Army Day every year, and Lao Tzu wants to come out to wander around and move his muscles!" ”
Tang Lin was holding a big green cucumber in his hand and eating it very unexpectedly, "Cheng, isn't it just standing guard?" No problem, but you'll be fine for ten or eight years, old man, so I'll be able to eat your cucumbers for at least ten or eight years! ”
Tang Lin suddenly became neither big nor small, completely devoid of the respect and rules just now, just as relaxed and casual as the ancestors and grandchildren in the field.
The old man was not angry, but instead of being angry, he showed a smile on his face that he hadn't seen for many days, a smile from the bottom of his heart, "You kid is really not afraid of death, for decades, how can anyone dare to be so presumptuous in front of Lao Tzu!" ”
Tang Lin continued to eat his own cucumbers without care, "I don't care what they do, by the way, old man, do you want to go and find those veterans under you back then?" Don't be discouraged, many people are alive, you take a look at how they are doing, have a good drink, and if you don't have a good life, they will have hope in their old age! Reliable, not? ”
The old man was stunned for a moment, then immediately sat up, and pulled his waist as straight as possible, "Good idea, I'll pull it out tomorrow, you kid will go alone, and no one else will bring it!" ”
