Chapter 411: Arriving Home
Wang Changhu's home is in a village in Wenshan County, with mountains, rivers and green plants, and the scenery is pleasant and beautiful.
The village is not large, with only a few dozen households, and the houses are not built in rows, but are built on a flat place at random, and the scattered houses look different.
In recent years, there have been frequent happy events in this ordinary mountain village.
Four years ago, there were two college students in the village, Wang Changhu, who had no father and no mother, and Xu Xiaojuan, the village flower.
It caused a sensation in the whole village.
Everyone in the village knows that the two families are very close to each other, and they have been good since childhood, the Xu family is thin, Xu Xiaojuan is the only daughter in the family, and she was bullied a lot when she was a child, and Wang Changhu has always been her flower messenger.
I don't know who chased whom, everyone in the village knows since junior high school that these two people are getting better.
Now that both of them have been admitted to university, that is to say, they have finally walked out of this poor ravine, which is better and better.
Whenever this matter is discussed, the people in the village are all envious and jealous.
Why are other people's children so promising?
But the more jealous is still to come, this summer, Wang Changhu's younger brother Wang Changming was actually admitted to university, and there were two college students in the family, which is really a miracle.
got off the train to take the shuttle, got off the bus and walked the mountain road, before noon, Wang Changhu finally rushed home.
During the Xiaonian holiday, Wang Changhu took a night in the car and finally caught up for the New Year's lunch.
There was only a grandfather and a younger brother in the family, and my grandmother didn't survive in the end and died of illness last year.
There is an old photo on the cabinet, in which is the kind face of the grandmother, and Wang Changhu kowtows three times with a stick of incense.
Grandpa sat on the kang and smoked a dry cigarette, the seventy-year-old man was full of red face and spirits, he couldn't tell his actual age at all, and his body was very hard.
Wang Changhu took out a bag of shredded tobacco from his bag and said with a smile: "Authentic green toad, take a puff and smoke a big heel!" ”
The old man's eyes lit up suddenly, and he took the cigarette and studied it carefully, and then carefully put it into his pipe and lit it.
Close your eyes and take a deep breath to reveal a look of intoxication.
"Grandpa didn't hurt you in vain!"
Wang Changhu said with a smile: "Let's smoke less, you have to pay attention to your body when you are older!" ”
The old man stretched out two fingers, "One cigarette, one meat, without these two things, my body will collapse immediately!" ”
Wang Changhu smiled and asked, "What about the wine?" ”
The old man took a puff of cigarette, swept his gaze over the black-and-white photo, and said slowly, "Quit it!" ”
The old man who used to like to drink so much didn't have any physical discomfort, but he gave up the biggest hobby in his life.
The old woman died of cerebral congestion, and the doctor said that it was caused by drinking blood.
At that time, after a busy day's work, the two of them liked to drink a little wine around the table, and drank until they smoked a bag of dry tobacco and sang a Peking opera.
The most unfortunate thing in life, the white-haired person sends the black-haired person.
The son and daughter-in-law are gone, and the old couple is pulling two immature children, no one entertains themselves, and they can't hold on.
The old man doesn't drink, not because he is afraid of death, but every time he drinks, he seems to see the old woman opposite.
After drinking, tears welled up.
Before she died, the old woman said a few words.
"I haven't lost anything over the years with you, I've always been worried about you, and in the end, I'm completely relieved. Don't rush down to me, at least ten years from now, you'll have to watch the children grow up! Tell me about it when the time comes! ”
After that, he died.
These words, the old man who had a bad memory kept it firmly in his heart, ten years, it will pass after holding on, and when the time comes, he will have to reward his wife well.
Wang Changhu understood the relationship between his grandparents, sighed softly, and changed the topic: "Changming hasn't come back yet?" ”
Speaking of which, the two brothers are also weird, they don't have anything to say together, and they have very little communication, but they are closer to their grandparents and say anything.
The old man said: "He is working outside, and he will come back at twenty-nine!" ”
Wang Changhu nodded, very pleased with this younger brother.
When they were children, the two often fought, and when they grew up, they didn't even talk anymore.
However, there is one thing that Wang Changhu knows very well, blood is thicker than water, and no relationship can be compared, once something happens to each other, the first person to help is the other party.
The old man smiled: "My two grandsons, they are both men, what are others doing in college?" Fooling around, and you all know that you're making money to support your family! ”
Wang Changhu smiled: "It's not because I'm poor, you and I want to do this!" ”
Now that the family is rich, although the education of Xiao Changjie is not what it used to be, the money that can be earned is enough to pay the tuition fees of the brothers and subsidize the family, and now the younger brother is working again, so the life is even better.
It doesn't matter if you're poor, you can't be lazy, as long as you do something and have an income every month, you will look forward to a good life.
The old man took another puff of dry tobacco and said, "Xiaojuan is back, do you want to take a look?" ”
As a grandfather, he understands his grandson and feels sorry for this child.
Although he didn't talk about the matter with Xiaojuan, the old man had long seen that Xiaojuan was tired, Xiaojuan used to grow up almost at home, but now, he hasn't been here for several days, there must be something wrong with these two people.
Wang Changhu said: "Go find her in the afternoon, you sit down for a while, and I'll go cook!" ”
It seemed that he didn't want to say more, Wang Changhu went out of the house to burn firewood.
Sitting on the bench, Wang Changhu held a cigarette and absentmindedly added firewood to the boiler.
For him, two big things happened last year.
At the beginning of the year, Xu Xiaojuan suddenly ignored him, and then wrote a breakup letter.
Wang Changhu had a classmate in her school, and that person said that Xiaojuan had found a boyfriend and was quite rich.
Seven years of relationship, but can't resist the temptation of material, Wang Changhu didn't give up, wrote a reply, recalling the bits and pieces of the two together, trying to save this relationship.
Eventually, the letter was lost.
Since then, the two have never seen each other, and she didn't even go home for the Chinese New Year last year.
After a bad spring, it was a cold summer, and there was an accident in the third section, Ji Xiaorou had an accident, and the boss had an accident again.
Everything has changed.
Fortunately, there is a small long festival again, and the boss is doing well again, although things have changed, but after all, they are getting better.
Now the only obsession in Wang Changhu's heart is Xu Xiaojuan, he has already made a plan, he must meet her, no matter if he can ask something, just to understand the whole story.
An hour later, the small table was placed on the kang, and the old man knocked his pipe and picked up a bowl of rice, and then picked up a piece of braised pork and put it on top.
Wang Changhu poured a glass of liquor very abnormally and said with a smile: "Grandpa, don't be greedy!" ”
The old man said, "Wine is intimidating, I know! ”
Wang Changhu took a big sip, and the burning knife at home was really strong.
After drinking and eating, Wang Changhu walked towards her house.
