"Well, make a phone call and go back, maybe I slept heavily and didn't answer."

"You didn't tell Tang Tang when you came out?" She asked. Li Yaotang didn't come with him. According to her temper, even if she is a little uncomfortable, the elders here, hard support, the etiquette still has to arrive.

"Hmm." What a response. And did not look into the eyes of the mother.

Mother He smiled and patted her son's back, "It's good to know that you love your daughter-in-law." ”

He Yu smiled vaguely.

"Little Iron." Mother He glanced at the hidden door of the bedroom, "Recently, I haven't heard some words that are not decent. ”

He Yu looked at his mother.

"What did you hear again?" He was helpless.

"What else could it be? Your peachy news is just that. He Mu looked at He Yu, "I think you don't really have any excessive actions." It's just that some don't have it, so you still have to pay attention to it. ”

He Yu frowned.

"You know how to deal with it." Mother He heard her father-in-law cough heavily in the bedroom, "Go in, grandpa is waiting." It's late, let grandpa go to bed early. ”

He Yu entered his grandfather's room, saw that his grandfather was closing his eyes and recuperating, turned around and closed the door, and relaxed his hands and feet.

"Why are you like a thief!" Old Man He's loud voice exploded all of a sudden, He Yu turned around and saw that his grandfather's eyes were like copper bells, and he couldn't help laughing.

"Grandpa, you want to scare me to death. What time is it......" he raised his wrist to show his grandfather. With that, he came over and sat on the chair next to his grandfather's bed.

"You don't know, when people are old, there is nothing else, just a problem." Old Man He straightened the quilt on his body and pulled it to his chest.

"Where?"

"I feel less, I love money, and I am afraid of death."

"It's like ......"

It seems to make some sense.

"It's not like, it's just. When I was young, I was full of energy, marching and fighting, holding meetings and visits, and not sleeping for days and nights; With free time, you can sleep for a few days and nights! Look at it now, ten minutes is also a sleep. Grinding. Old Man He cleared his throat.

He Yu smiled and poured a glass of water for his grandfather.

"I don't drink, I drink too much water, I always have to go to the toilet, toss." Old Man He pushed away the glass of water irritably. He Yu had no choice but to put him on the bedside table.

He held his grandfather's arm. Grandpa's words made his heart sour.

"Grandpa, I think, you won't be old."

"Huh?"

"Although this mark you is a lot, you have one more thing."

"Which one?"

"Angry."

The old man stretched out his hand to He Yu for a moment, "Little monkey cub, criticize me again." ”

"People say sixty ears are smooth. I haven't seen you hear it. He Yu joked.

"Do you want me to be obedient? Wait for me to go up Babao Mountain. The old man rolled his eyes.

He Yu smiled. Grandpa talks to him, life and death, it's really not taboo. He's used to it.

"Don't keep getting angry with your second uncle." He Yu thought about the second uncle just now, and he was disgraced again, "It is not easy for the second uncle to have the second uncle." ”

"I'll ignore him. I don't care about the outside world. I always have the right to call the shots with my own body, right? As soon as I had a dizzy fever, I was asked to go to the hospital. Finally came back from there, who is impatient to go in again! Speaking of the second son, the old man's white eyebrows began to tremble again, "You are helping your second uncle speak...... You really appreciate your second uncle's affection. ”

"Not ......"

"What's not, if it wasn't for your second uncle to follow suit, you and Yaotang's affair wouldn't have been successful. When I don't say it, I don't know anything? I don't like to say. ”

He Yu was silent.

Grandpa has rarely mentioned this matter over the years. But who in the family is not a crystal heart? Grandpa's dissatisfaction is manifested in his indifference and pickiness towards Li Yaotang, and everyone knows it in their hearts; I picked the bones in the eggs, and I picked them for a long time, but last time I was in the hospital, my grandfather was relieved......

Thinking so, he stopped massaging his grandfather.

"Hospital, I'm not going to live." The old man smacked his lips and glanced at He Yu, "But." ”

He Yu saw a hint of cunning flashing in his grandfather's eyes......

"If there is a great-grandson to hug, I will go."

"Where's the great-grandson?" He Yu blurted out. Seeing the smile on his grandfather's face, he paused, "You mean ......"

"When the time comes, I will go and carry my great-grandson home with my own hands. That's it, 'buzz', and we'll be back! The old man smiled.

He Yu couldn't cry or laugh, "Grandpa, you still mention that." "He has the heart to say, just take you around the five rings, the second uncle almost didn't peel me for practice, I still dare! But he didn't say anything until he was halfway through his mouth.

Old Man He didn't know, he pouted and said, "If I were a few years younger, I would also want one." ”

He Yuxiao, "I'll get a parking yard with you, it's okay, you can sit up and bask in the sun, and have a good time." ”

"You kid!" Old Man He made a gesture and wanted to beat him again.

He Yu dodged with a smile, "Master, don't break it, if you break it, you won't be able to give birth to a high-quality great-grandson." ”

The old man glared at him, "Last time, grandpa mentioned it to you, and you picked up the stubble, saying that it was Yaotang's problem, and grandpa didn't talk about it anymore." Reasoning, grandpa shouldn't be disrespectful to the old and say this. But, grandpa, look, this time, do you have this plan? ”

He Yu looked at his grandfather and groaned. Li Yaotang's cold eyes suddenly shook in front of him. He was speechless for a moment.

The old man looked at his grandson's reaction and said, "Last year, the old man of the Li family invited me to drink together. ”

He Yu was a little surprised.

He knew that after the two old men beat him and Li Yaotang's wedding banquet, they never sat down together again. There are some knots in the heart; In daily life, it is the grandmother of the Li family who supports it, and she can get by on the big side.

"Grandpa......"

"Phew, looking for me for a drink? A serious weasel greets the chickens for the New Year - knowing that the doctor won't let me drink it, isn't this greedy for me? Old Man He's white eyebrows began to tremble again, "He drinks, let me see?" I'm not going to do it. ”

"Really drunk?"

"Well, the Golden Thread Hibiscus Spring." The old man rubbed his nose, "Old horseman, you have a good wine to satisfy me." ”

He Yu opened his mouth.

"He also said that there are three jars in total, and one jar will be solved by the two of us; A jar is left for you; There is also a jar," said the old man, smiling, "for the full moon seat for your children." ”

"It's all ...... When? After a while, He Yu asked.

"The first day of the Lunar New Year. The old man carried a jar of wine, walked into the door like a fly, couldn't get rid of it, just finished lunch and dinner, and carried it away to their boss in the middle of the night, it is said that if they don't go back, their old rouge tiger is going to be powerful. The old man laughed, under the light, He Yu could see that his grandfather's face was full of red light, "It's still like that, a lifetime of good wine." When cleaning the battlefield, everyone else picked up guns and ammunition first, and he rushed to the high rank first, thinking about the wine jugs of senior officers...... I don't know how many times I've been trained. ”

He Yu laughed.

The old man also smiled and shook his head, "The most proud thing in his life is that the first one is that he has a good amount of wine, and the second is that he married Qin Mianhe." Now, in my opinion, one more has to be added. ”

"What?" Tie He asked.

"For his baby Yaotang, he found a good family."

He Yu laughed, "Grandpa......"

"Don't say that, Xiao Tie, we two old boys, the days of life are counted by day, just such an idea wish, I hope you are all well."

"Yes."

"But you'll have to fight for me, too." The old man's hand was on He Yu's shoulder.

"Grandpa."

"When your grandmother married me, I was worse than you. I often think, I am a dignified doctor and marry a daughter-in-law with little feet who is ordered by the family? Can't wow! I dragged it and refused. Later, I couldn't bear it anymore, and when I returned to China, I wanted to withdraw from the marriage; Your father-in-law gave me a roll of his eyes and said, are you still out of marriage? You've been fired by that schoolgirl. I inquired about going to her school, and I looked at the green dress and white shirt, black braids, and a stack of books in her arms, floating from the school. My heart, pounding, just thought, Alas, how did I see you? Old Man He had a smile on the corner of his mouth. The memories made his face look like that of a young man, full of happiness and happiness.

He Yu was stunned when he saw it.

"But, she really doesn't want to marry me. Until I lifted her hijab, she looked at me with that cold look. Before entering the cave room, your wife whispered to me, Gava, wait for her to take off her earrings and put them on the dresser, you go, button your hat on it, so that she will listen to you for the rest of her life. I just laughed. I'm from Liuyang, can I believe this? Your wife said, Hanwa, her family must have taught you the same, wait for your hat to take off first, she put earrings on your hat, so that you can teach you, and listen to her ...... in the future."

Tie He listened, and he was already in a trance.

"It's not easy. I don't take off my hat, she doesn't take off her earrings. I stared at her earrings and she stared at my hat...... The two of them just sat like that, sleepy and napping, and neither of them took the first step. I couldn't stand it anymore, so I said, I'll go to sleep first, and you can rest early. She was speechless. I took my hat off and put it on her dresser—it didn't matter if I listened to her for the rest of the day. I looked into her eyes, and I knew that in this life, as long as she was my person, it would be fine; The affairs of the family are originally decided by women, and I don't fight for this. That night, I went to sleep in my study. When I got up early in the morning, I was afraid that people would find out, so I quietly jumped out of the window and went back to our cave room, but she hadn't gotten up yet...... Xiao Tie, you know, what did I see? The old man smiled and looked at He Yu.

He Yu shook his head.

"My top hat, on the left; Her earrings, on the right. The old man laughed, "Your grandmother, she is the young lady of the Shui family, she has been entangled in "The Legend of the Daughters" since she was a child, pressed by the archway, and soaked in the Four Books and Five Classics. Go out to study in a foreign school for a few years and follow others to engage in academic activities? I thought she was just joining in the fun. But no, she really brought equality into the house. After that, whether I went to Nanjing, Chongqing, or Yan'an, she accompanied me. Xiao Tie, your grandmother, I thought, is the most peculiar woman in the world. It's a blessing in my life. ”

He Yu felt warm on his body, and he didn't know if it was because the temperature in the house was high, or because his grandfather's narration warmed his heart.

"It's a blessing for me. But isn't it hers? I dare not say. It's just that in this life, I recognized her, and I lived up to her; She recognized me, and she didn't fail me. Until the day she left. Xiao Tie, the day your grandmother left, I didn't feel too bad...... When she was alive, I treated her well; She's gone, and I have no regrets. I just thought she was gone a few days early and waited for me over there. But I didn't expect that if I waited for so many years, I would still be alive with a dead face, I was impatient to live, I still lived, I promised her, I had to do it, I had to watch you little monkey cubs for her, she left me little monkey cubs. ”

"Grandpa......"

"People, it is not easy to live a lifetime. In this life, it is not easy to meet someone who is lovely. Xiao Tie, grandpa told you this, you may think, what years have passed, grandpa and grandma have lived like this, you can't do it. What are you talking about now, talking about love, talking about feelings, talking about addiction and dying...... , I never told your grandma in my life that it would give her goosebumps to the ground, I hurt her, and I had to sweep the floor with a broom if I didn't bother her. ”

He Yu laughed out loud.

"Don't laugh yet. Now, what do you say at every turn, junior and fourth, you don't have a chance when we are? There are those who go to the city to change wives! They are all distressed couples who rushed over in the artillery fire, and they said that they would throw it away, but I saw less? It's all about whatever! At any time, it can't go against the truth. The old man's eyes were blazing, looking at He Yu.

He Yu was still smiling on his face, but he turned his gaze away. He heard his grandfather's voice.

"Xiao Tie, Grandpa Tangtang, I protect the calves, I said, you Yaotang, you have been in the door for seven years, and you refuse to add a grandson to our He family. I understand that I am called unreasonable. What the hell is going on, no one knows better than you and Yaotang. Grandpa said that he wanted to hold his great-grandson, that is to say; I'm a grandson, not worse than you. What to do, you figure it out and then do it. It's really not good, don't force it. ”

He Yu's heart was beating "suddenly". Grandpa suddenly told him this, which frightened him.

He Yu didn't come back to his senses yet, but listened to his grandfather's next words: "Panic, go to the toilet." ”

He Yu hurriedly stood up, "I'll carry you over." ”

The old man pursed his lips, thought about it, really sat up, slowly moved his legs off the bed, and stretched out his arms. He Yu turned around, put his grandfather's arm on his shoulder, and gently lifted his grandfather on his back—grandpa was very tall, but when he carried it, it was so light, as if there was a skeleton empty—he stood in front of the bed, for a while, and didn't move.

"Xiao Tie, do you remember when you were a child, your grandfather took you back to the northwest?"

"Hmm." He Yu nodded.

"You're only five years old. Grandpa takes you to the military horse farm, as if you like something. At three o'clock in the morning, you are clamoring to see the horses. Old Man He laughed.

"Hmm." He Yu nodded again.

There was really no way to quarrel with him, so Grandpa got up and took him to the stable. The sky was bright, and the grandfather carried him on his back, looking at those handsome military horses from one stable after another...... At that time, grandpa's back was so thick and warm.

"In a flash, thirty years have passed." Old Man He's voice was full of a thick smile, "Now, it's your grandfather's back." ”

He Yu held his grandfather's leg and slowly walked to the bathroom. Neither grandnor grandchild spoke again. He stood outside the bathroom, waiting, looking up at the window, looking through the gauze curtain at the bright sky.

He took a deep breath.

Another dawn.

Tang Tang, are you home?
