Chapter 601: A small thing, but not a small one
Sending Liu Bao back to the Splendid Internet Cafe, Zhang Xiaobai drove to Wolong Village. htts:
I haven't been home for the past few days, but I have to call my mother every day when the thunder doesn't move.
Zhang Xiaobai found the feeling of being a child again, when he couldn't go out to play at home, his grandmother shouted at the top of the mountainside.
"Xiaobai, it's time to eat"
The village was not big, and there were no big cars at that time that were very quiet, so under normal circumstances, Zhang Xiaobai could hear it, and hurriedly ran home.
Now, I have relatives again, and I have thoughts and concerns.
As soon as he entered the village, Zhang Xiaobai saw his mother and a group of old ladies sitting under a big tree to enjoy the shade, each with a pu fan in their hands, talking and laughing.
Zhang Xiaobai found that the character of the fourth child completely inherited his mother, and he was familiar with everyone, and he could get along with any kind of person.
And my mother's language talent is really amazing, how could she speak Tangcheng dialect before, but she has only been here for a few days, not only can she understand the dialect, but she can occasionally pop out a few words of Tangcheng dialect.
Parking the car on the side of the road, Zhang Xiaobai came to the crowd and greeted the old ladies warmly.
The old ladies have long looked at Zhang Xiaobai differently, especially recently, with flattery in their eyes. Wolong Village has long been rumored, the Zhang family's child is out of business, and he is a big boss who opened a steel mill in Tangcheng.
In private, this group of old people are all embarrassed, watching Zhang Xiaobai grow up from childhood to adulthood, the affairs of their family are clear, who would have thought that such a poor child would have such a big future, and it would be good to have a good relationship with others, and he could still get some light. It's just that it's a little late now, and I scolded other people's broom stars at the beginning.
Rural women, especially at that time, liked to chew their tongues when they had nothing to do, and they nagged about the affairs of the Zhang family.
When my mother saw Zhang Xiaobai coming over, she said with a straight face, "It's not good to work, why are you back?"
The old lady next to her smiled and said, "Isn't this a filial piety?"
Zhang Xiaobai carried leeks and meat, and said with a smile, "I want to eat my mother's dumplings"
As soon as she heard this, her mother happily stood up and followed Zhang Xiaobai home.
The old ladies in the back all showed envious eyes, why are they so blessed
When an old man and a young man returned home, Zhang Xiaobai didn't let his mother do it, chopped the noodles by himself, and then began to make dumplings.
deliberately wrapped a lot, Brother Hao and Brother Hui must have come when they smelled it.
The old lady couldn't intervene, so she moved a small Mazha and sat next to her, her face full of spoiling.
Since coming to Tangcheng, the old lady went to the hospital to see a doctor and take medicine, and chatted with the old people in the village, and the most important thing is that her son is by her side, she is in a good mood, and her health is getting better day by day.
Zhang Xiaobai is happiest about this incident, his mother and second brother are recovering, which is better than any good thing.
Zhang Xiaobai wrapped dumplings and asked, "Mom, can you talk to those people?"
The old lady smiled and said, "When we talk, we are still simple and honest from the countryside."
Zhang Xiaobai smiled and didn't say anything, thinking that they weren't very kind at the beginning.
That year, my grandmother died of illness, and Zhang Xiaobai pulled a wooden cart to send my grandmother to the ground, and no one in the village came to help except for stones.
Along the way, Zhang Xiaobai saw too much indifference and ridicule and yin and yang weirdness.
When you're poor, everybody wants to trample you under their feet; When you are rich, they are eager to flatter you.
At this time and at that time, probably this is the human nature of the human heart.
The old lady looked at Zhang Xiaobai, her vision was a little blurry, and she suddenly remembered what the old people said.
"Xiaobai is a bitter child, he has no father and no mother when he was young, and then his grandfather is gone, and his grandmother pulled him up, but when he was a teenager, Xiaobai began to be independent, not only cleaning up a few acres of land at home, but also trying to make money to support his family and school."
"Your little white, people are poor, it's not strange to have such a big career, but you suffered so much when you were a child"
Zhang Xiaobai saw that something was wrong with the old lady, and said with a smile, "Mom, what are you thinking about?"
The old lady sighed and said, "Xiaobai, I heard Xiaorou talk about your situation before, and I knew that it was not easy for you, but I really understood it by chatting with them today, and I didn't expect you to be so difficult at that time." ”
Zhang Xiaobai said, "Mom, it's all over, it's okay, and I really didn't think it was difficult at the time, as long as I can be with my family, no matter what is difficult, it is not difficult."
The old lady suddenly frowned, hesitated for a moment, and said, "Xiaobai, there is something I don't know if I should say or not."
Zhang Xiaobai smiled and said, "Mom, what else can't I say to me?"
The old lady recalled for a moment and said, "Xiaobai, today I heard Mrs. Li talk about one thing, about your mother. ”
Zhang Xiaobai stopped his movements and asked, "What did you say?"
A little bit more sensible, Zhang Xiaobai knows that he is different from others, everyone has a father and a mother, and he only has a grandmother, and then he asked his grandmother what was going on.
Every time my grandmother always diverted the topic, she didn't say anything, but she knew a little that her own mother decided to be a big beauty, and her appearance was very easy to follow her mother.
One night, Zhang Xiaobai saw that he couldn't ask anything, he fell asleep angry, and when he woke up unintentionally, he saw his grandmother wiping her tears under the oil lamp, and since then, Zhang Xiaobai has not asked once.
So I don't know anything about my mother's situation except for being good-looking.
The old lady said: "Your family is a foreigner, according to the elderly, your mother took root in Wolong Village when she was a little girl, and your mother was born beautiful, and her skin was very white, not like the people in the village at all. ”
Zhang Xiaobai said, "I know this, grandma said that I followed my mother." ”
The old lady smiled and continued, "Your mother went out when she was in her twenties, and then she didn't seem to have been home much, and she didn't come back until three years later, but she was pregnant with you on a big belly, and then when she gave birth to you, she had a difficult birth, and the person was gone. ”
The sentimental old lady burst into tears at the thought of the family's misery.
Zhang Xiaobai smiled and said, "Mom, it's okay, now I have another mother, it's not good"
The old lady wiped her tears and said, "At that time, the village was full of tongue chewing, and your family moved halfway up the mountain. I also heard about a thing, not long after your mother died, one night a man suddenly came to Wolong Village"
Zhang Xiaobai generally knows what the old lady said, but the man has never heard of it, and it is obvious that it should have something to do with the word father.
Although he didn't care about it before, when it really came, Zhang Xiaobai couldn't hide his excitement, swallowed his throat and asked, "Mom, what's going on?"
The old lady said, "It is said that the man went to your house first, then ran to your mother's grave, cried there all night, and then there was no news."
Zhang Xiaobai let out a sigh of relief, if it was really that person, it would be better, after all, he would cry for my mother.
smiled, Zhang Xiaobai said, "Okay, let's not talk about this, let's eat dumplings for a while."
