"Alright, Ms. Sheng. I've been playing with you since I was a child, and I'm going to play with my classmates in the future. ”

"Yes, no problem, let's stay in Nanjing for a month, you can learn to drive and visit Jinling City, and you can also ask classmates to come to Nanjing to play, we are responsible for food, clothing, housing and transportation, so it's always okay."

"I really want to play in Nanjing, isn't it easier to learn to drive here?" Lingyi looked like a profiteer had taken advantage.

"Study, no matter what you learn, you have to have a good attitude!" Kosu emphasized.

"Got it, Mom, shouldn't you tell your story, you rarely tell stories about you......"

"My story is long, do you have the patience and time to listen to it?"

The spirit came together, dragged the mother, and the two came to the tombstone together.

Pointing to the marble on the ground, he sat down, and then pointed to the side of himself: "Grandpa said, this is our own yard." Mom, you see that the sun has set, the weather will be cool, shall we sit here with my grandfather? Maybe my grandfather's soul will come out. ”

"Aren't you afraid?" Kosu asked.

"What's there to be afraid of, it's all my own relatives, and my grandfather can still chat with us when he comes out."

"Okay, then mom will start talking. When do you want to start listening? ”

"When I was the same size, from the time my grandmother died......"

"You stick this" Xiaoqi took out the mosquito repellent patch from his bag,

"That way the mosquitoes won't come to the side."

They sat on Mount White Horse and watched the moon rise and twin.

Look at the bright lights of Jinling City in the distance.

Look at the old days......

"Yes, 40 years ago, there were still small bungalows everywhere, and it has changed a lot." Xiao Qi pointed to the distance.

From the time of the first Chang Geng, Xiao Qi's thoughts have returned to his former childhood year after year.

Lingyi was careful, she wanted to hear her mother talk about her father, who had already contacted her......

Xiaoqi was born after his father's rehabilitation, on the eve of reform and opening up, that year his father was rehabilitated, and he took his mother from Jiangnan, at that time, his father and mother had been separated for 10 years.

If "Lu Prisoner Yan Zhi" is a description of this era, the scene of Xiaoqi's father and mother is not far from this story.

Xiao Qi knew very little about the era before the rehabilitation, but he relied on his father's memories.

In his memory, it seems that it is not difficult to wait for a person for ten years or even a lifetime in that era, that era is ordinary, simple, there is no prosperity today, and people's hearts are more simple and simple.

Father, a hero!

When he was young, Xiaoqi didn't know what pain was, and he didn't know what pain was.

I just feel that I am different from others, everyone else has a mother but Xiaoqi does not.

Xiaoqi, all the loss of memory started with his mother.

She remembers when she was five or six years old. His father was already the head of a large state-owned unit, and he remembered that his work was very busy.

She still remembers it vividly.

It was a summer evening, and in the square of the field, Xiao Qi was chasing dragonflies and occasionally a few fireflies......

In that scene, not only her, but also a few naughty boys, after a while, surrounded Xiaoqi, blocked her, and laughed at her for not having a mother......

Xiao Qi was surrounded by a group of rough boys, crying as he ran, stammering until he cried, and couldn't say a coherent sentence.

How painful should this be for a child?

Xiaoqi finally broke free from the group of boys and ran home.

"Dad...... Dad, I'm ...... I...... I...... Want...... Mother...... Mother. I...... Target...... Mother...... Mother...... This. Xiao Qi's little chest rose and fell rapidly, and his whole little shoulders kept shaking.

Dad was lighting a fire and preparing to cook, and was startled by this angry Xiaoqi and this sudden questioning, and he was there until the fire touched his hand, and he didn't realize it.

Dad threw the fire into the stove.

"Xiaoqi come to Dad's side." Dad stretched out his kind hand.

"Daddy......"

Xiao Qi cried, and his father hurriedly hugged Xiao Qi in his arms.

"It's okay, it's okay, there's a dad......"

After half a ring, Dad said, "Mom is on the moon outside, she's busy, and she'll come to see us when Mom has time." ”

From then on, Xiaoqi's main job was to wait for the evening to come, and when the moon rose at night, she would go outside to see her mother.

She muttered a lot to the moon, and sometimes she even shouted loudly, for fear that her mother would not hear: "Mom, come down and see us." I'm Xiaoqi, this is Dad......"

It's just that Xiaoqi didn't pay attention to Dao Dad's one-meter-eight man at this time, and silently squatted in the corner and secretly wiped his tears.

She even proudly went to tell her friends: "My mother is on the moon, she is very busy, and my mother will come to see me and my father when she is free." ”

At the beginning, my friends believed it.

However, after only one night, it was concluded that there were no people living on the moon.

In exchange for harsher ridicule.

But at that time, Xiaoqi firmly believed that what his father said was true, and he quarreled with the ridiculous boy with righteous words!

This time, Xiaoqi is bold and strong.

"Your mother doesn't have the ability to go to the moon, so she said that my mother can't be on the moon, and my father said that if she is on the moon, that's on the moon! My dad is the field manager, and he's right! ”

Hearing the words of the field manager, these children seemed to be afraid of stirring the scales, or they were very timid, one was said by the adults, and the other was the field manager, these children knew that this child was the child of the field leader!

There were tens of thousands of people in the audience, not knowing that it was normal, and these children stuck out their tongues at each other and ran away quickly.

Later, after a long, long time, Xiaoqi realized that these were all excuses for her father to comfort her.

People can't be resurrected after death, which is what Xiaoqi gradually understood when he grew up.

Dad is hard.

Xiao Qi understands this very well.

In the narration of the neighbor's old man, Xiaoqi sketched the scene before she remembered.

Since my mother passed away, for a whole year, my father has never taken off his clothes once and slept in bed intact.

Every night, my father leaned against the wall and held Xiaoqi in his arms.

What kind of perseverance should it be for my father to achieve such an extreme!

Not only that, but my father also had to direct the production work of the whole field during the day.

Spring is an important production season for my father's unit!

However, Osu was born in the spring, and his mother died on May 2.

It was supposed to be a very difficult day

There was a small table next to the bed with a kerosene stove on it, and milk was hot in it.

Whenever Xiaoqi cried, his father would light the kerosene stove to heat the milk, but Xiaoqi usually didn't eat it, and only his father was in a hurry.

Drink some unless you're hungry.

That's because it's not precious milk powder, it's bloody goat's milk.

At that time, milk powder was not available at all.

Milk powder is an extremely advanced tonic.

Xiao Qi still remembers that the adults have passed on the word of mouth.

Since his mother's death, his father has searched for many places for Xiaoqi's milk, and he has walked more than 100 kilometers and searched all over the shops to find milk powder.

For a whole day, there was no store to sell milk powder.

Later, it was still a kind person who pointed out. "Supplies are tight right now. This milk powder is even more scarce. Even. Can't buy it. "You might as well be like this, and then the county magistrate approved it.

For the sake of this mouthful of milk powder, the father, who has never trusted the relationship, also hardened his head and went to the leader to take care of his private affairs.

The leader was very happy and quickly approved the order.

The father took the strip and walked to the supply and marketing cooperative. Finally, I got half a bag of milk powder, and it was already hard to form a lump.

Regardless of the picking, my father walked 100 miles back.

He just wanted to get home quickly so that his baby could have a sip of milk.

In the evening, I finally rushed back.

Hurriedly lit a fire to boil water, even if it was half a bag of milk powder that had formed a hard lump, my father washed it and turned it into milk, and when he fed it to Xiaoqi, Xiaoqi drank it with a bang, and there was not a drop left.

For now, it is completely expired milk powder, but it is this half bag of milk powder that saves the dying Xiaoqi.

In addition to the greatness of motherhood.

It's not easy to see how hard it is for my father to raise!

That night, my father cried.

How can this child be raised?

There is no endless road.

The people in the unit found out about this, and a kind farmer brought in a newly produced ewe.

This ewe has enough milk to drink for a lamb and a small perch.

This solves the problem that my father can't buy milk powder.

It's just that this goat's milk is very thick, and after squeezing off an enamel cup, it is placed in the small stove after heating.

Father fed Xiaoqi, Xiaoqi didn't drink anything.

The father smelled the smell of this goat's milk, and it was indeed enough.

What should I do? Goat's milk is too fat, and the child doesn't eat it.

Three or five experienced women helped with the idea.

"What a poor baby. If the child doesn't eat milk, I'm afraid it won't be able to raise ......."

"Don't keep talking about frustration, Lao Sheng is just short of resources now, and he relies on ticket supply. Comrade Lao Sheng, if you can get white sugar in the county and add it to this goat's milk, children love to eat sweet, and if there is sugar, the children should eat it. ”

When the father heard this, he was afraid that the child would not be able to raise him and care about anything else, so he hurriedly borrowed the only bicycle in the field.

rushed to the county seat overnight, and at dawn, he finally arrived at the county seat.

Waiting for the supply and marketing cooperatives to open, my father was the first to rush in and took out the non-staple food ticket.

"Comrade, I want to buy sugar."

The salesman at the counter glanced at his father contemptuously and said, "Sugar? Do you know what white sugar is? This is a straining item. Comrade, I know that I have a ticket, and I can't do it if I have a ticket. This white sugar is not something that can be sold casually, which requires special approval from the leader. Go back. ”

These three words sent my father away.

The father who was persuaded to retire was very anxious, he thought about the child who was waiting to be fed at home, he was a big man, and it was rare to have no choice.

What else can you do for the sake of your children?
