Gu Ruxi's face became solemn: "Lulu." ”

"Grandpa is thinking, is your lifestyle not good or wrong."

"It's not that you raised Chen Feng to be such a lot of people, it's not your fault."

"When. Isn't Grandpa very good at getting started? Xingchen International Group can have today, it is not the credit of grandpa. Uncle Chen Feng was also able to inherit his grandfather's ambition and work hard, and now he has eight families. Grandpa, when was I wrong? ”

"If you do business like Chen Feng, Xingchen International Group will soon be disgusted."

"Grandpa."

"There's no way to dislike it, it's not self-inflicted. It's not that you raised Chen Feng like this yourself. "Chen Feng knows when the Tao is good.

"Grandpa has been working hard until this age. I only know how to look forward and rush forward desperately. But no, you've got something wrong somewhere. ”

Chen Feng still spoke well.

"Isn't there something wrong with it? Do you really want to know? ”

"At this age, if not aware of the problem, it may be too late. It's better to finally find out before you die, and that's it. ”

"Grandpa likes to reminisce about the past. When it comes to those old sesame seeds and rotten grains, when will they be used? It's better to work hard and live hard, but forget the most important cases. If it weren't for the fact that the north is better to think about now, it will be too late. If it doesn't go on like this, you and Chen Feng are finished. That's not what you thought of. ”

"This time you didn't go on a trip to reminisce about those old things."

Gu Ruxi cried bitterly: "I know how to understand the land." No one can understand it, and you don't expect anyone to understand.

"In the eyes of others, it's just that there are not many old ladies who want to miss a lot of things in the past. But no. ”

Gu Ruxi cried helplessly: "If people want to see it like this, then let everyone go." I just need to let my grandfather do what he likes for a long time. ”

Chen Feng finally spoke: "You understand, in fact, you can understand." Although you know when Grandpa was lost, I want to think back to those things many more times, and you can't understand it. Grandpa had lived to be eighty-three years old.

That's the kind of mood you have. ”

"Chen Feng."

"You've never seen grandpa be willful, I'm always not very calm, and I can easily show my feelings. So, when I see it, I run away from home with a lot of noise. I'm not so obsessed with going to that village, and it's not the first time you've seen Grandpa so excited.

So, you think that even if you don't carry grandpa, you have to carry me. Grandpa didn't do it just out of sentimentality, but I was lucky enough to have such a little enthusiasm after visiting the village.

This time, you finally understand why grandpa has to go to see his hometown. ”

"Because Grandpa didn't run out of there."

"When you were in the village, you stared at a lot of houses, and it wasn't because it was because Grandpa's house was in that location."

Despite this, for Gu Ruxi, this is not a warm and happy home. There are a lot of people in the family, and the small family is crowded into a lot of work, which makes Xiao Gu Ruxi feel warm from the heart.

In the humble house, many family members are eating dinner around the hearth, in addition to the eight-year-old Gu Ruxi, there are also grandmother Li Zhong, father Zuozao, father Chen Feng, little brother Zhuang Zhi, young lady Li Chun, second sister Lulu, and four-year-old and two-year-old little sisters.

The children held the empty bowl and stretched out their little hands in front of their father Chen Fengdi, who was busy and served rice and soup to the children.

At that time, it was not the spring of Gu Ruxi's eight-year-old year, and in today's words, he was not only six years old.

These many days are not the days when the aunts go home to be teachers.

When it came to being a teacher, Gu Ruxi was eight years old at the time, Miss Xusui was just over ten years old, and the second sister was only ten years old.

The two aunts are not children yet, but they are leaving their parents to work as teachers in other people's homes.

If such a case is taken in the present view, it is not a violation of the child welfare law at all.

At that time, the old family was not a small farmer, so it was not a rented land from the boss's family, and after the rice fragrance was laid, almost half of the harvest land was handed over to the boss, and many family members were counting on the remaining rice fragrance to live.

If it weren't for the drought and flood years and the crop failure, many family members would have filled their stomachs.

Even if there is a good flood and drought, it is difficult for the owner of a small family to feed the whole family.

Therefore, there are many two children in the family who go out to work as teachers, and they can always save a lot of rations, which is not "less open to eat", which is indeed too cruel, but it is not a fact.

Gu Ruxi's family is not a small farmer commonly known as a "small individual industrial and commercial household", and rents and cultivates other people's small individual land. Anyway, there are more than eight acres of land, and when the harvest is good, you can beat 25 straw bags of corn, and you have to hand over 13 bags of rented grain, and the rest of the corn is not the ration of the whole family for many years, and you have to take out a lot of it in exchange for daily necessities, so the livelihood is really difficult and there are already two or three years of poor harvest at that time.

For many days, many of Gu Ruxi's families sat around for dinner. The father looked at Li Chun and Lulu with pity, and said, "Mother is good for everyone, it is easy to come back a lot, and there is no time to eat it, only radish rice." ”

Li Chun said happily: "This is very good, it is good to be able to eat many meals of radish rice with a lot of family members." ”

"Well, at the boss's place, everyone is not well fed."

"Mother, it's like this everywhere."

The second baby, Lulu, interjected: "You're so afraid that you'll be full, so you want to stay at home." ”

Li Chun avoided his sister a lot of eyes and reproached: "Lulu." Chen Feng had a painful look on his face, and said softly to Lulu: "Lulu, come, eat many more bowls." ”

At this time, Xiao Gu Ruxi also raised the empty bowl in front of his father, clamoring "You have to eat too", Chen Feng was very embarrassed. Lulu looked at Gu Ruxi and said to her father, "You are full, give Gu Ruxi something to eat." ”

The old grandfather Li Zhong was really optimistic, and said with self-pity: "I blame you, if you can still work?"

Li Chun said to his grandfather cordially: "Don't say that, grandpa, I have good hands." Lulu also asked, "Is Grandpa still in pain?" ”

Li Zhong sighed: "Rheumatism is not like this, there is no way? How good would it be if it weren't for this hand? Li Chun comforted his grandfather and said: "Grandpa, I have been working all my life, and this disease is not exhausting, so I have to sing well." ”

The old man struggled to hold back his tears. At this time, my father could no longer endure it, and stood up on the ground, and ran to the stove to fetch straw. Li Chun shouted at his father: "Dad, don't be too tired too? "There are a lot of good voices, and they beat the straw fiercely, as if they are desperately trying to suppress when.

The second baby, Lulu, hugged her little brother from Chen Feng's lap and said to her father, "Mother, I'll eat it quickly, right?" You come to see the little brother. He turned his head to look at his grandfather again and asked, "Grandpa, I'm delicious." ”

Li Zhongdao said: "Grandpa has eaten a lot." ”

Chen Feng got up and cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks. Lulu asked in surprise, "Mother, me." Chen Feng said calmly: "Wait a long time, and my mother will slowly eat some taro." ”

Li Chun and Lu Lu looked at their father steadily, and Li Chundi's eyes were full of sadness. And Gu Ruxi was still eating sleepily, her little face was full of happiness. Li Chunhao sighed: "Gu Ruxi, I'm not a child who can understand everything?" ”

Gu Ruxi said: "In April, you are going to school." You have to go with Li Qing in the East House a lot.

Plates, you also have to buy a lot of them? ”

Hearing Gu Ruxi say this, Li Chun and Lulu looked at each other. Chen Feng quietly turned his back and couldn't bear to look at him. Gu Ruxi was still arguing with kindness: "Hey, why don't you buy it?" ”

Little brother Zhuang Zhi looked at Gu Ruxi with disgust, and shouted, "When am I talking in my dreams?" We're a family. Chen Feng hurriedly stopped Zhuang Zhi: "Zhuang Zhi." ”

Sshoji silently closed his mouth. Chen Fengdi's face was full of decay. Only Gu Ruxi didn't look like a lot of people caring, shouting, "Hey, I'll buy it for you."

In the Yinshan Hot Spring Hotel, Gu Ruxi was telling Chen Feng the story of his childhood, thinking that at that time, he still knew the difficulties of his family and the poverty of his life, so he couldn't help but sigh with emotion, "At that time, grandpa still understood the thing of 'poverty'?" That's why. ”

Chen Feng listened quietly, then stood up and took the microphone, and said, "You call home." Father shouldn't have slept yet. ”

Gu Ruxi was a little understanding. Chen Feng explained: "Maybe we will have to travel for many days, so don't worry. Seeing that Gu Ruxi was not a little relieved, Chen Feng assured: "You will definitely talk a lot." ”

"......

"You've been following Grandpa a lot, okay."

Gu Ruxi stared at Chen Feng, Chen Feng cried a lot at him, and Gu Ruxi also cried slightly. The grandfather and grandson are no longer inseparable.

At this time, in the Hachiyo family workshop, Hope is rocking the wheel alone. When I heard the phone ringing, I had to stop the turntable and happily pick up the microphone.

"Oh, this isn't the Yashiro family. Ah, it's not Chen Feng. Hey, you're still working, aren't you, it's really bothering you, because some local guys are casually calling your studio? It's too tiring. Who wants me to meddle in my affairs. Although he said this, Hope couldn't help crying: "When am I going to bring my grandfather back?" Well, to go elsewhere. ”

There were many heads on the phone, and Chen Feng said, "Okay." Grandpa occasionally wants to come out and go around. Where to go, this... Is there a variety of places to go? Anyway, you're not always with him, so you don't have to worry about it all the time. ”

At this time, Gu Ruxi took the microphone from Chen Feng's hand and said to Hope: "It's not you, well, are you okay." Good people are talking all over me, and I am also implicated. Hello, it's not because there is a time when things are satisfying, I just run out, I'll tell you that it's not that the old man has a weird temper. Money. Yes, when you come out, you have to stay for a long time and bring enough money. Then, I'll lend Chen Feng to you for a long time, she has to follow you, there is no way to take it. Okay, contact me again, good night. ”

After finishing speaking, Gu Ruxi hung up the phone with a snap.

Late at night, Gu Ruxi and Mrs. Li stretched their waists into the real cage and warmed up in the quilt, Gu Ruxi was a little relieved, "Let me go with good milk, in fact, there is no time to do anything interesting." Li Ran said: "It's okay, let you look for the things that your grandfather lost in eighty-three years, right?" ”

Gu Ruxi didn't make a sound. Li Jia continued: "Although you are not pampered and grow up in small places, it is not that you have never tasted the taste of lack of food and clothing. Although you know the word 'poverty', it is not when you are really poor, you can even imagine it. ”

Gu Ruxi groaned and said, "Li Ran is also twenty years old. I was born in good times. No one of us at this age can understand when real poverty is not what it looks like. ”

Li Jia changed the subject and said, "Grandpa, let's go take a bath, shall we?" You're here to rub my back. The small bath can be mixed with men and women, so everyone can get up and go in a lot. ”

Gu Ruxi cried and nodded like a naughty child.

The two of them went to the hot spring bath and soaked comfortably in the hot water.

Li Ran said wryly: "Ah, this time I finally have the feeling of soaking in a hot spring?" A few days ago, because I figured out when Grandpa Mingji was thinking, although I came to the hot spring, I was not always in a good mood, and I was not in the mood to take a bath slowly. Credible sighed and said, "Young people hate old people in general, and I am a strange child. Although he didn't say so, his eyes were full of relief.

Chen Feng suddenly asked, "Grandpa, my authentic radish rice is not when." ”

Gu Ruxi was stunned. Lulu explained: "Isn't it true that grandpa didn't eat radish rice when he was a child? It seems to be delicious. Gu Ruxi sighed slightly: "Can that thing be delicious?" However, after the farmer paid the rent, the corn left over was enough for the whole family to eat, so he cut the radish into peanuts and corn from his own land, and many of them fell into the corn and cooked them into rice. It's not when it's delicious, but it's not when you're hungry, and who can say "delicious" so extravagantly. Even if it's not turnip rice, is it good to be full? It's better that other people's families don't eat turnip rice, so you don't take it for granted, and you don't feel that it's poverty, and you don't feel suffering. After all, you were only eight years old at the time. ”

In 1901, Gu Ruxi was born in many remote mountain villages in the upper reaches of the river in Yamagata County.

No, when Gu Ruxi understood things, his grandfather had already suffered from wind disease, but he had done a good job of weaving the outline, and he had done a good job of farming, and he could only barely take care of the children.

My parents worked hard in the fields, staying up late at night to rub straw ropes, weaving straw sandals, going out to burn them during the long winter months, and taking a lot of vegetables from the few vegetables they had planted in their own land to exchange for some necessary daily necessities.

At the end of many years, my parents worked hard at night and slept well. But even if you don't live so hard, every year when it comes to planting the ranks, there is no corn in the house.

In particular, it is not a time when there is a frost or a good harvest and the rent is paid.

There will be surplus grain for the family to eat, and they have to ask the boss to borrow a lot of rice, which makes life even more difficult.

To add insult to injury, many children are born one after another, which becomes a heavy burden for parents.

Gu Ruxi is not a child who grew up in such a difficult environment.

He has been accustomed to being poor since he was a child, and he doesn't feel that there is a time for him to be miserable, because although he is not short of food and clothing, he still has the love of his parents and grandfather.

Gu Ruxi realized many times that poverty was terrible, not in the spring when he was eight years old.

In the past many days, Gu Ruxi has had enough of going home, and when she was running to the door, Li Zhong ran out of the house in a panic and stopped Gu Ruxi so that she could enter the house.

Gu Ruxi was very puzzled, but she saw many men running out of her house, and her parents were respectfully sending her out.

Gu Ruxi looked at the man strangely, and the man also saw Gu Ruxi, and said, "Ah, it's not this child, it looks like there are many sisters-in-law and mothers?" ”

Gu Ruxi stepped back timidly. The man said again: "I'm not called Gu Ruxi." My uncle will come and pick me up.

Chen Feng hurriedly thanked the man: "I'm really bothering you." ”

"Ah, I'll do him a disservice." The man said, crying and running away, Zuo Zao and Chen Feng bowed their heads deeply in salute.

Gu Ruxi asked, "Isn't that person who?" Neither Zuo Zao nor Chen Feng answered. Only grandfather Li Zhong protected Gu Ruxi as if he was not afraid that he would be snatched away.

Zuo Zao shouted: "Gu Ruxi, come over a lot." Gu Ruxi was at a loss, but Li Zhong said: "Zuo, I finally want Gu Ruxi." ”

Zuozao silently ran back into the house. Chen Feng turned his face away in pain and called Gu Ruxi softly.

Li Zhongdao: "You are against this, everyone can take Gu Ruxi too." You don't have a good meal, and you have to keep this child at home. ”

Chen Feng hesitated for many moments, but he shouted angrily in the room: "When are you doing?" ”

Chen Feng had no choice but to hurriedly run to Zuozao, and said hesitantly: "You see it's not too good, Gu Ruxi is only eight years old after all." ”

"Of course you know how old he is. But you've already promised someone, someone else's side. ”

"It's not that Gu Ruxi is too pitiful, this matter."

"Well, I want to starve the whole family to death.

"There's always a way."

He said patiently: "I have a way to do it." ”

Chen Feng is so forbidden. Zuo Zao said: "I have borrowed and borrowed from the master, and it is not good to borrow again." At this time, Gu Ruxi ran into the house, and Li Zhong hurriedly followed behind him, and shouted peacefully: "Gu Ruxi." Gu Ruxi didn't look innocent a lot: "Dad, what's the matter with me." ”

Chen Feng hurriedly said: "There's nothing to do, let's go outside and play." Then he turned to Zuo and said, "Her father, we have to finish the work in the field before dark." ”

Zuo Zao ignored Chen Feng at all, and still called: "Gu Ruxi." ”

"Dad, what's going on?"
