Grandpa Xu Xianqing is a cultural person, pay attention to people, when the tiger fell in Pingyang, there was no chance to return to the city when he returned to the village, in the eyes of others, it was "lost and down".

However, after so many years, instead of being down, he has always been very respected by the township government and the village committee.

Take the New Year as an example, on the first day of the first lunar month, as long as it is not an absolutely bad climate, blowing a little wind and a little rain, grandpa does not care about those descendants of the clan to come to pay New Year's greetings, do not waste effort, he has to take his crutches for the first time, step by step to the township government outside the village, to those younger than him to express his friendship, just like the government and the people fish and water.

It's not derogatory to say this, maybe other brothers and sisters will see it that way;

But Hua Lin thinks that this is what his grandfather thinks, as a party member, maintaining the relationship between the masses and the organization, helping each other and loving, helping and recognizing, this is the belief and sentiment that party members should adhere to.

In previous years, all the way to the New Year, he would take Xu Menghua, Xu Feiru, Hua Lone, Xiao Taro by his side...

In the past two years, Xu Menghua and Xu Feiru, who don't live in the ancestral house, can't move anymore, so only Hua Lin is left, and the thunder can't move to follow the side, Hua Pingjin is afraid that the old man will not be able to bear half of his physical strength, so let Hua Lin take care of it.

And because Xiao Taro always gets up early, he doesn't wait for his family, he can come to visit the New Year first, take over his grandfather's New Year's money, and don't go anywhere else, so he follows Hua Lin every time and accompanies his grandfather to the township government.

The road to the township government is very long.

Along the way, there were always some elderly grandfathers who greeted their grandfathers, "Going again?" ”

Grandpa bowed his head and smiled.

Looking at the flowers and lonely eyes, some people will also ask, "Who belongs to this girl?" ”

Grandpa replied loudly: "My Pingjin baby's daughter." ”

"Happy New Year, Grandpa." Hua Lin said in time, with her trademark smile, her small eyes crooked, revealing two rows of neat teeth.

Passers-by turned around and praised politely: "She is a good baby who is filial." ”

Hua Lin is filial piety, but it is too meager to talk about filial piety with her strength alone; If all the younger generations are filial, the father is kind and the son is filial, and the family style is revitalized, how good.

But no one will know that the Xu family in Yuanxu Village, the big family under the ancestral house is going to be terminally ill.

On the second day of the first lunar month, after lunch, the canteen has not been completely cleaned up, and the uncle rarely appears in the ancestral house, saying nothing more than letting Hua Pingjin go to Henggang for the New Year next year.

It's like hitting a snake and hitting seven inches, what the uncle said can really make Hua Lone's father ashamed.

What he said was: "Next year, I think about your whole family, you can buy more New Year's goods, go back to Henggang generously, how much can it cost to buy some New Year's goods, so many decades, you have never returned to the top for the New Year, Xiao Yuan doesn't remember what happened on Henggang, right?" …”

Refining some keywords, what can't be avoided is "money".

Hua Lin knew that their family was so poor that they didn't have money to come back to rub their grandfather.

"I haven't used my parents' money much." Uncle chattered without stopping.

Hua Lone's father's face was red and white, and he was poked by his own brother openly and secretly, and he was also in a hurry.

For a time, the scene tended to be chaotic.

From the perspective of Hua Lone, there are three or four situations, and the three or four spaces do not intersect with each other, but are intertwined.

The first space is the uncle who has been immersed in his own world and keeps repeating certain words, and he does not speak in a hurry or slowly, like an enchantment, which has nothing to do with the outside world, and his mission seems to be to constantly "tell";

In the second space, the grandmother sat aside wiping the tears from the corners of her eyes, and the grandfather looked at his eldest son sadly, his mouth moving, but the business was too small to hear what he said;

In the third space, Xu Hejin fed Xiao Shuhuai by himself, and Yuan Pingqing was cooking the fire and preparing to wash dishes with warm water on the big stove, as if they hadn't seen or heard anything.

The fourth space is the lonely father who is pressed to withstand the fire and his chest is constantly falling together, he is not good at words, but he has a sense of immediacy that he wants to explode on the spot.

…

In this chaotic place, Hua Lin doesn't know what he can do, what he can say, and what he can do.

She also knew in her heart that if the name was right, what the uncle said was not unreasonable, and their whole family should recognize their ancestors and return to their ancestors to go to the hill of Henggang and guard those dark houses.

If it weren't for the fact that the family that succeeded to the past had no descendants for a long time, maybe Hua Pingjin should have grown up there since he was a child, so it would be trouble-free.

But isn't this how it hasn't developed?

This face, let Hua Lin understand, grandpa's age is increasing year by year, a monthly salary is several thousand, these people say "Fu is like the East China Sea Shoubi Nanshan", in fact, they are particularly afraid that grandpa's property behind him will be secretly displayed, prevent it from coming and going, isn't it an outsider surnamed Hua?

There's nothing to say, poor families, they don't have the right to speak, even if their hearts are innocent, it's an indisputable fact that their family is standing here, and they can still cut out their hearts for everyone to see?

I don't understand how brazen Hua Lonely is, obviously my grandfather's body is still tough, but why do you have to worry about the property of the older generation?

Hua Lin withdrew from the space, and she stood at the door of the ancestral house, leaning against the pillar, looking at the bright red lanterns, swaying in the cold wind.

I caught a glimpse of a figure out of the corner of his eye, it was a rare person, Xu Feiru.

I saw Xu Feiru running in a hurry, directly skipped the flower silence, and rushed in.

That formation can only explain one problem, Xu Feiru seems to have predicted that her father will "suffer" this trip, and specially came to escort her.

For Xu Feiru, it was really timely.

Because at that time, the flower loneliness was not known outside, and it really broke out inside.

Because of Hua Pingjin, he saw the tears of the old mother, and even saw the red eyes of the old father.

Hua Pingjin is too filial, his brother came at him, he could bear not to accept the offer, but he couldn't stand the depression of his parents in the first month.

So he got up and pushed Sangsangdi, telling Xu Anjin to get out of here immediately.

Xu Anjin is a scholar, how much effort is needed, just pushed casually, and the person fell to the ground, and now Xu Hejin and Yuan Pingqing, who were wandering outside, couldn't stay out of the way and got up one after another, pulling and pulling, so this movement started, and the scene was too ugly, even if it was okay, no one would believe it if they saw it.

Xu Feiru bumped into this scene.

His father was still on the ground and didn't get up, while the others were pulling Hua Pingjin, and they immediately made up a lot of details, all of which were unfavorable to Hua Pingjin.

Xu Feiru, who has the style of "Mu Guiying is in charge", is not afraid of any vision and strength, she rushed straight to Hua Pingjin, and Hua Pingjin, the elder who she had also affectionately called "uncle" when she was young, raised an index finger, almost pointing at his nose and said:

"Why are you standing here, is your surname Xu?"

No matter how Hua Pingjin replied, he said: "You go away, you are a junior, and there is no place for you to speak here." ”

Xu Feiru will always only ask that question.

The flower outside the house was still meditating on herself, lamenting the misfortune of the family, and then there was a rare person, aunt.

Hua Lin didn't know which tendon was wrong, it was like this, and she could still calmly and politely shout: "Auntie, Happy New Year!" ”

Xu Anjin's daughter-in-law is usually very biao, but in fact, the moment Hua Lin opened her mouth, she also felt that her aunt's face was not good, and she was a little anxious.

This aunt, I didn't expect Hua Lin to give herself a generous gift in return, her heart tightened a little, and her face was embarrassed.

Hua Lin was afraid that the people inside would say something inappropriate, so she hurriedly followed behind, and then loudly reported: "Mom, Aunt is here~"

But when she arrived with her aunt, she was stunned by everything in front of her ears.

Compared to before she left, the intensity of the scene has increased too much.

Especially Xu Feiru, as a junior, she is still pointing at Hua Lone's father's nose, and every word is extra clear: "You don't have the surname Xu, you don't have the surname Xu..."

Hua Lin was shocked.

Since she was a child, her father has also praised Xu Feiru, although this is rarely mentioned, but as long as her mother gossips at home, when it comes to Xu Menghua's stupidity and Xu Feiru's dominance, her father always loses his temper, and he has always defended these people.

And right now, the younger generation he is most optimistic about, the younger generation who is more optimistic than his daughter, in the Xu family, in the form of a "repeater", told the big secret that this family is not a secret.

Yes, it's like covering your ears and stealing a bell, although everyone knows it in their hearts and talks behind their backs, but no one has ever lifted the last veil in broad daylight.

Even Xu Anjin has never been a euphemism.

And it was not their brothers who lifted this veil, but a junior who should have stayed out of the matter like a flower lonely; Besides, how many days and nights does it take for a junior to dare to say such a thing, and how much power does it take to act for the tiger?

At this time, Hua Lin finally heard the words in his grandfather's mouth.

Grandpa said, "Pingjin'er is also my child. ”

Hua Lone's heart was sour, is it okay to say these things now?

Aunt Chen Nianxiu also saw it, she did not join the war, but scolded Xu Feiru, and dragged Xu Feiru with Xu Anjin to forcibly drag her away from the scene.

Especially, when Hua Lin saw her just now, she naturally said: "Auntie, Happy New Year." It touched Chen Nianxiu's always vigilant heart.

At that time, there were no adults around Hua Lian, and no one was acting to instruct her to act pretendingly, Hua Lin looked very sincere, maybe it was easy to be affected in an instant, a small detail, especially Fei Ru Zai's rampant and domineering.

The two couples pulled Xu Feiru and left, and Xu Anjin turned back.

He took out a few hundred dollars from his pocket and put them on the table in front of Hua Pingjin.

What's that money? Hua Lin understood.

The woman Xu Menghua brought back from outside was pregnant with a child, although she was not married to a Ming media, but after all, it was the Xu family, Hua Pingjin didn't know how happy she was after hearing about it, so she dragged others to give her child a few hundred yuan of full moon wine.

A few hundred yuan, not much, but almost equal to all of Hua Pingjin, for a person who has no way to buy new clothes and new stationery for his biological daughter to improve the food, and does not give any supplies to the family, it is he who overcomes himself no matter how he overcomes, and treats his family harshly to give his brother's heart.

Although Yuan Pingqing was messing with him at that time, he still insisted on giving it.

Just this money, now being fluttering, indifferent, even full of irony, fell on the table, he couldn't arrogantly tear it up and throw it away and pretend not to care, he really needed every penny, this thin banknote, just laughed at there.

Speaking of which, where is their original sin is "surname flower";

Their original sin is clearly "poor".

When things gradually subsided, my parents accompanied my grandparents in the house, and Hua Lin sat back under the plaque at the door of the ancestral house.

She remembered Xu Feiru's powerful appearance of provoking her father Hua Pingjin, so what kind of confidence Hua Pingjin didn't dare to take her, that was the domineering that Hua Pingjin would never have.

If, saying that Hua Lin is actually unconvinced, and he looks down on this uneducated sister, is it just forcibly saving his respect?

But Hua Lin really can't do anything.

She may have complained about me, why can't her father take out the ability to beat her behind closed doors, and give Xu Feiru a slap so much that she can't tell the difference between southeast and northwest?

After all, it can't be provoked, and it can't be without measure.

Otherwise, hasn't my mother Yuan Pingqing always said much?

If, she thought, if she was on the scene, if it was because their elders couldn't be excited, then could she rush up to a duel between her peers as her?

What can you fight?

She is a little stammer, anxious, full of words, and not as good as Xu Feiru's mouth, she was born to fight for others, so she is so incompetent.

The people around her who can do this, those who have sharp teeth and sharp mouths and quick brains, may belong to Lin Shuyu, Cen Lin;

If it were Su Ya and Liu Shitong, it was estimated that these two would not talk nonsense and would do it directly.

She is no one, far from this ability, let alone the strength supported by the power behind her, she is the same as her father, weak and incompetent, useless.

However, she could not go on like this, and she suddenly woke up and told herself:

She wants to be strong and cheer up, but she also doesn't want to shoulder the prosperity of the Xu family, whether she is qualified or not is not her wishful thinking, and even whether there is a need is not her wishful thinking to judge;

However, she is the only one who can choose to prosper the "old flower family".

This is her obligation.
