In 52, the Great Depression factory was transferred, and the father and son were at odds with each other
(Due to the excessive number of words in this chapter, it has been updated in two parts, and the following is the first half of "52 addresses. )
"What's wrong?" saw the colorful glass balls rolling all over the ground, and the boy's eyebrows were upside down.
When the old man heard this, the laughter that had just stopped came again.
Gui Ying came out of the kitchen, stood on the side and saw the old man laughing, the son standing still blowing his beard and staring, the eldest brother with his hands in his pockets to watch the excitement, and when he thought that picking up the glass balls all over the ground became his own business, the nameless fire was scurrying in his heart.
Ma Guiying, who had done a housework, squatted down to pick up the ball without thinking, picked up a dozen or so and looked up, and saw everyone watching her pick up the ball as if nothing happened, and suddenly couldn't hold back and shouted: "What are you laughing at!" After finishing throwing the ball he picked up in his hand to the ground with a bang, he stood up and pointed at Yangyang and yelled: "He Yiyang! Did you turn the chessboard over? ”
When Yangyang saw her mother's fire, she was stupid as if she had lost money, her mouth and eyes were not closed, and her laughter became shocked.
"The baby is not hearted, and her elbow hit her while doing her homework!" The old horse was talking for Yangyang.
"That's right! You pick it up for me! Gui Yingwan walked over, dragged Yangyang down from the chair, and pointed to the ball on the ground: "Pick up all the balls, you can't eat if you can't finish picking them up!" You can't miss one! He clasped his hands on his chest and stared at his eyes.
"Are you okay?" The old horse's eyes were contemptuous.
"She made a mistake, how I educate is my problem, don't accuse me or refute me in front of the baby. Besides, I'm so fierce to make her realize that if you don't make a mistake, you have to be punished, and you are there to speak for her! Do you want her to understand that you have made a mistake or do you want her to feel that she is wrong? In terms of children's education, parents must maintain the same position, otherwise children will have a gap! Do you think children are stupid? The thief is a good one! ”
"I'm a word, you're a basket!" The old horse gave Gui Ying a blank look.
"You'd better not!" Gui Ying pressed the fire and choked the old man, and then pointed at Yangyang and reprimanded: "He Yiyang, you are not allowed to eat if you can't finish a mouthful of food, and you are not allowed to sleep at night!" Gui Ying finished, raised his head and chest, and went back to the kitchen angrily.
Yangyang turned her head and looked at her grandfather with a pleading eye, and saw that her grandfather raised his chin and squeezed his eyes at her, not knowing what it meant; The brother and uncle on the side shrugged their shoulders and laughed at her from time to time, and the child felt that he had been coerced, crusaded and insulted, so he had to slowly squat down in pity in the eyes of the crowd, picking up the balls one by one, and peeking at the adults while picking them up. Seeing that the baby was pitiful, the old horse sat on a chair and kicked the glass ball near him to a place with his foot, and Xingbang also used his foot to help Yangyang.
"Here! Under the cabinet too! Tsai Tsai smiled and pointed to the glass balls with horns, as if he was helping and falling into a well.
"Don't help her, let her pick them up one by one." Seeing this scene, Ma Guiying, who was remotely monitoring in the kitchen, yelled outside, but unfortunately no one listened.
"There's one missing here! Damn, you can't eat if you miss one! Hum! Tsai yelled at the glass ball on the shoe rack at the door.
Poor man, squatting on the ground, holding a plastic bag in his left hand, grabbing here and there on the ground with his right hand, occasionally being shouted by his brother and reprimanded by his mother, his sadness can only be expressed by two lines of tears. Crying and unable to cry out, the depressed man secretly glanced back at his grandfather, longing for God-like help and love from there. Black round eyes, compact and stubby eyebrows, innocent and pitiful sadness, the uncle and brother who laughed on the side, and even the grandfather who loved her the most was laughing at her, why is the sadness so deep? The weeping child squatted on the ground like an abandoned stray cat, pitiful.
Twenty minutes later, the glass ball was picked up, and He Yiyang, who had red eyes, took two steps back with a plastic bag and lifted the glass ball to his mother, and said, "I'm done picking it up." ”
Gui Ying, who was wearing an apron, turned around arrogantly like an empress and raised her chin: "I'll take a look." Pretending to count them, Gui Ying put the glass ball in a corner of the kitchen, and then pulled Yang Yang into the house with Yang Yang's collar.
"Boy, make a piece of land for her, and let her do her homework with you! You're in charge of her! That's it for a moment. Gui Ying looked at her son, both discussing and instructing.
"Can you ...... Not here...... Doing your homework? Yang Yang pleaded with tears.
"No! I have to write it with my brother! Bring your homework over! Fast! Gui Ying finished, with two lines of tears in her eyes, pinching her fingers to get her homework.
"Do your homework in my house, knock my stuff over, see if I don't beat you!" Tsai Tsai stood at the door, pointing at Yangyang's back, pretending to be arrogant.
"You watch her write, if she is in a daze or playing with toys, just train her!" Gui Ying ostensibly gave it to her son, but it was actually for Yangyang.
Holding books, notebooks and pencils, Yang Yang walked forward in broken steps, pouting and sobbing along the way, looking back at her grandfather from time to time, seeing that her grandfather did not say a word for her, the doll was heartbroken and went to her brother's room like a devil's hole to do her homework. Gui Ying saw her lying on the table, closed the door, asked the two children to do their homework seriously, and went back to the kitchen to continue cooking.
After watching a good show, the father and son of the Ma family turned around and found that there were only two of them left in the dining room and living room. The words of greeting were all over yesterday, and no one dared to speak first on further topics, separated by a distance of less than two meters, inexplicably embarrassed. Lao Ma continued to smoke his hookah, Xingbang holding a cup of tea in his palm, facing the direction of the gate - the most familiar stranger, it is this relationship. I don't know how many minutes later, the father and son looked at each other, and each other's deep eyes were as bright and vicious as eagle eyes, but unfortunately, no one spoke.
After a few more minutes, the old horse stared at the table with low eyebrows, coughed, and then spoke: "You are over there...... Factory...... Since it has been transferred, simply go back to Shaanxi. ”
As soon as Xingbang heard this, his father who was chatting with his sister heard it, and his heart shuddered, and he looked at the tea without moving, silent.
"As soon as the things are packed, sent back, and redeveloped in our Shaanxi! Your uncle has a relationship and a way, how you want to do it, he will always help you! The old horse spat out his cigarette.
Xingbang twisted his body and looked at his father: "I won't go back to Shaanxi for a while." ”
"If you don't go back to Shaanxi, where will you stay?" Lao Ma felt that he was anxious and impatient, and immediately changed his tone: "According to Yingying, stay in Shenzhen and school"
From beginning to end, Lao Ma never looked at his son, but Xingbang kept staring at his father's eyes.
"I'm gone, I'm not going back to Shaanxi, and I'm not coming to Shenzhen." Ma Xingbang, who has never said much, insisted on his position.
The old horse puffed out two thick and long puffs of black smoke from his nostrils, nodded and asked him, "Such a big province, there is no place for you to stay?" Such a big special zone, and there is no place for you to stand? Are you sober and sober, how old are you, what year and month are you going to run? ”
After all, the old horse broke out first.
"Most of my customers are southerners, and the factory is expensive to open in the north, and I have to lose a number of customers. You don't know the rent in Shenzhen, I am a factory, and the little money I earned in Shenzhen was donated to real estate. Xingbang told the truth.
"That's not going to work, that's not going to work, where the hell are you going?" The old horse held back his anger and slammed the table with the base of the hookah.
Gui Ying heard the voice and stood at the kitchen door and asked, "What's wrong?" Yang Yang is weird again? ”
Seeing that the father and son did not answer, and their faces were not good-looking, she was stunned for a moment and said, "The meal will be ready immediately." Then he went back to the kitchen to stir-fry.
So, the father and son continued to be silent.
When he used to go back to his hometown, Ma Xingbang mostly went to the house of his second and third aunts to play cards, smoke, and brag with his younger brothers, and rarely spent time alone with his father. Now that I have arrived at my sister's house, I originally thought that the house was a "refuge", but who would have thought that even this would be "requisitioned" by Gui Ying. There is no way to hide, only to face.
But what he has to face is exactly what he wants to dodge.
Fate is really strange, when it gives you love, it cuts you off, when it rewards you with glory, it brings you traps, and when it gives you wealth, it reaches out and stuffs you with sin. What makes you suppress your pain is what you can't ask for; What makes you gnash your teeth is what you always cherish.
The straightforward old horse has been annoyed and annoyed for decades in the face of his son, who is always unable to communicate. As a result, I was still annoyed, just as I was at the beginning. He felt that he was not stupid, but on this issue, he was a failure, a complete failure. He couldn't talk to his son, no way. The anger in my heart was like a monster and a devil, and when I saw Xingbang, he revived and lived. After more than 20 years as a village chief, he has solved all kinds of deep hatred or absurd problems, and he is helpless and powerless in the face of his own and his most concerned problems.
Lao Ma doesn't understand that what Xingbang needs most is never domineering, strength, persecution or anger, but all he has given over the years. The more he is like this, the more Xingbang can't communicate with him, and he doesn't even have the occasion to sit down and chat calmly
The father does not trust his son, which is the saddest thing for Ma Xingbang.
Tonghe and the Flaming Mountain lie between this father and son, one will always sit high on the Flaming Mountain, and the other will always be silent at the bottom of the Tonghe.
The third Ma Guiying is smart, and she hardly asks if the eldest brother is unwilling; She never gives what her eldest brother doesn't need. The trust and reliance on the eldest brother has continued to this day, and only then has their brother and sister had a good brotherhood in the past few decades. Even though she has started a family, a wife and a mother, even if her eldest brother has rarely seen her over the years, the unclear but heavy trust is buried in her heart, love and return have become her only output to her eldest brother, and two children, listening, humor and smile have become her powerful weapons to express love and return.
The phone rang.
It's Ma Xingbang's. Xingbang walked to the balcony with the phone, and chatted on the balcony for a while after connecting it.
At seven o'clock, dinner was ready. Don't bring a big pot of vegetables to the table, Tsai Zai brought the dishes and chopsticks to everyone, Xingbang hung the antelope to wash his hands, Gui Ying looked at his father and eldest brother while scooping rice: "I'm tired to death!" This pot looks very wild, but it is actually very attentive. There are fungus, daylily, carrots, potatoes, beef, tomatoes...... More than a dozen kinds are cut into cubes, and when they are fried, they are put in green onions, ginger and garlic, peanuts and beans, and white sesame seeds, and then fry the cold soup, and then cook the vegetables. How's that, it looks hearty! ”
"Isn't it with that...... Braised hemp food is a bit like it! "The first time I saw the vegetables, I stared at the messy stew in the big basin, and his facial features were compact.
"Huh! You still have a little vision! This is indeed a bit similar to braised hemp food! But the staple food is different. I added the juicer-crushed spinach juice to the noodles, so it looked green and smooth. Also, hemp food is rubbed out with a thumb, and this one of mine is rolled into a thicker dough cake and then cut into cubes! This is what you, your great-grandmother and your grandmother used to cook! Mom will do it for the first time, give some face, and eat more later! Gui Ying finished, wiped his sweat, and sat down. Everyone had a meal.
Seeing that her father and eldest brother had been silent, Gui Ying guessed that something must have happened to the two, so she kept taking care of herself: "Hey! It's delicious! The first time I did it, it was pretty good! It's a pity that it doesn't taste the same as the original, and it would be better if there was tofu......"
Ma Xingbang finished eating two bowls, Gui Ying scooped the third bowl for him, and seeing that everyone was almost full, he suddenly raised his head and smiled at his sister: "Yingying, Ge Ming has something to do, and I will go back to Dongguan after eating!" ”
"Huh?" Gui Ying tried to stay calm as she scooped her meal, though she didn't understand what was going on.
The old horse closed his mouth, took a breath, exhaled again, and then put down the dishes and chopsticks with a click: "Your factory is closed, what else is going on!" "Wipe your mouth with a paper. Obviously, Lao Ma thought that Xingbang was avoiding him.
Yangyang was so frightened that her eyes rolled wildly, and she didn't dare to interject when she was eating, Gui Ying heard that the old man knew about the transfer of the factory, and her face pretended to be relaxed. After scooping up the meal, she put the bowl in front of the elder brother and said to the old man softly: "My brother has something, then there must be something, what kind of anger!" Eat well first. ”
The table was speechless, and after a while, Gui Ying turned his head to keep his eldest brother: "Can't you leave tomorrow morning?" Talk to Tsai Tsai more, you rarely come here all year round, and you come and go in a hurry every time you come back. This time the Mid-Autumn Festival, everyone is there, you stay one more night, it will be lively! ”
"What a problem!" Xingbang nodded, and ate the food by himself.
"Let's go! Let's go! I haven't been at home for decades, I haven't seen you make much contribution, and you're busier than the chairman! How many cities have been tinkered with, which one has settled? How many factories were opened, which one survived? A Shaanxi plus Shenzhen, there is no foothold for you? What the hell are you doing out there? How much money did you make? You're busy in this world! The old horse gritted his teeth, slapped the table, and left the table.
"Don't be in front of the baby......" Gui Ying angrily and timidly at the figure of the old horse.
"I'm full!" After eating, the boy wiped his mouth and forcibly pulled Yangyang away.
The old horse was grunting and smoking hookah on the balcony, the two children entered the house and closed the door, and only the Ma brothers and sisters were left on the table, and the two were still eating silently.
"I'll pack something for you later—fruit, dried vegetables, or whatever." Gui Ying snorted while eating.
"No need."
"No! Must be taken away. After Gui Ying finished this, she wiped her mouth and left the table and began to clean up.
The nervous woman was busy and didn't have enough to eat, so she was running around the house at the moment and called her son to help. first took out a box of dried fruits and a box of moon cakes that she bought for the eldest brother in advance, and then took out the persimmons, walnuts, winter dates, canut dates and wild sour dates sent by the second brother from the refrigerator, and gave most of them to the eldest brother, and she also moved out the last box of lychees. After the eldest brother finished eating and packed his own bag, the mother and son hugged and pulled the food in order, and the three of them went out together.
After the car was picked up from the parking lot, Tsai Tsai pulled the car and followed his mother and uncle to converge, and after the mother and son moved those things into the trunk one by one, Gui Ying straightened her clothes, and before she could speak, her eyes turned red.
Ma Xingbang locked the trunk, put his hands in his pockets and lowered his head, and said gently to his sister: "I was thinking...... After the Mid-Autumn Festival, before he left, I pulled him over and went to live in my factory for a while, and the factory was not transferred so quickly. I was thinking about taking him to see the production line, office area, staff dormitory, canteen and so on in the factory, and I was also thinking about taking him to the scenic spots in Dongguan to have a look...... Forget it now. ”
When Gui Ying heard this, her eyes burst into tears.
"It's just in time! I'm going to talk to my grandpa! "Tsai Tsai is very excited.
"Forget it, your lord still has to send Yangyang to school. He loves to send his baby to school, so let him send it. Xingbang gave the first sentence to his nephew, and the latter sentence to his sister.
Gui Ying hugged her chest with one hand and wiped her tears with the other, and nodded solemnly.
"Don't cry! The baby is here! It's not pretty! Xingbang pointed to the girl, and then said: "It's not that I won't come, the National Day is over the 70th birthday, I will definitely come!" I didn't see you crying again. Someone came to see the factory tomorrow morning, and I really couldn't stay in the evening. ”
Just like a snake can't cry and a cat can't laugh, Ma Xingbang is like a person who can't get angry, he will always be peaceful, always peaceful.
"Well, it's fine." Gui Ying nodded.
"The seventieth birthday, you handle it, it's lively, and the old man will spend this time together." Xingbang instructed the sister.
"Know-way! Fulfill the mission! After Gui Ying finished grinning, she burst into tears, and Tsai Tsai and Xingbang smiled when they saw her, and they also smiled.
"Okay, you guys go up, I'm leaving!" Xingbang opened the car door.
Before leaving, he pulled down the window of the car and beckoned Tsai Tsai to come over, stretched out his head and whispered: "Tsai'er, go back and tease your grandfather, enlighten and enlighten your mother!" Don't let him quarrel. You're also older, so share more for your mother. Xingbang felt sorry for his sister-in-law.
"Well, I know! Goodbye, uncle! ”
After Zai Zai finished this sentence, the car lights turned on and the person left.
Gui Ying watched her eldest brother leave under the light at the intersection, her heart was uneasy, and she sighed for a long time along the way. When she got home, seeing that the old man was still smoking with his neck twisted there, Gui Ying walked to the sofa and said angrily: "My brother has finally come here, you can't let him finish his meal before leaving!" ”
The old horse shouted in the air: "Did I let him go?" ”
"My brother is almost fifty! Not a child! Can you save some face for what you say to him! The child is here with me, do you think this is the village - standing at the mouth of the alley and scolding anyone! Gui Ying sat down on the sofa.
"Oh! I have to look at your face when I talk to him! The old horse's head didn't choke on the ground.
"When you go out and mingle, you leave your job or are laid off by the company, the factory closes down, the store is transferred, and the merger and acquisition of a large company is ...... It's a normal thing! The transfer of a factory was like a collapse by yours, why do you feel that my eldest brother can't survive as soon as you exit? Don't use the tone of the village chief to teach this and criticize that, you are old, and your ideology is old! Besides, this is at home, there is no relationship between superiors and subordinates in my family, there is no big leader, don't think of yourself as the village head, Zhiyuan and my eldest brother and my second brother are willing to look at your face and act, I am not in the mood to cooperate with you! ”
