The darkness of the night covered everyone's eyes, people released themselves in the darkness, and the wanton twisting of the body made the bones make a crisp sound, Zhang Lei walked quietly, and he could hear the sound of these bones rubbing.

There weren't many people on the streets, everyone had gone back to their houses, only the children who had gone out sparsely and the young people who had sneaked out on dates.

Zhang Lei has not walked leisurely on the streets of the village like today for a long, long time, the road under his feet is still uneven, and the people on the street behave strangely. The ditches reflect the dilapidated nature of the village.

It is more beautiful than the bustle of the day and the tranquility of the night, as if such a scene belongs to it, although none of this is perfect.

"Zhang Lonely, be careful when you go home in the middle of the night" was the grandmother's voice again.

Zhang Lei's footsteps changed, as if he heard the spell of the conjuring spirit, he turned around and walked gently to the old grandmother.

The house behind him is open, but there is no light, maybe everyone else is already sleeping, but will someone take care of the grandmother at the door later? Zhang Lei's tense face gradually opened up a smile.

"It's my brother, I'm dazzled, I can't see clearly, I thought it was Zhang Lone" The old grandmother smiled and shook her head, which made Zhang Lei feel kind again.

Pulled over the bench to the side and sent it under the buttocks, closer to the old grandmother.

The old grandmother is still smiling, but this smile is at the position of Zhang Lei's stool, not at herself, and the old grandmother's smile no longer has too much love but is a little more plain and calm.

Zhang Lei couldn't care about so many changes in his eyes and expressions, he breathed a sigh of relief, he was addicted to smoking, and he was a little impatient, but it was not good to leave immediately after sitting down, since he had to say a few words to his grandmother before leaving.

"Is there something going on?" After a long smile, the grandmother turned to Zhang Lei and asked.

Zhang Lei took his eyes back from the darkness and didn't mention smoking, but suddenly talked about the news that he was going to go away: "Yes, I'm going to be a soldier, I'll leave in a few days"

"You're leaving the village?" The old woman was a little surprised, and her body trembled a little when she spoke.

"Right"

Hearing Zhang Lei's reply, the grandmother didn't say a word, Zhang Lei waited for a while, if it weren't for the grandmother's eyelids still rolling up and down, I really don't know if she would have fallen asleep.

"Then I'll give you something," was silent for a long time, and the old grandmother opened her mouth to give Zhang Lei something.

"No, no, no?" Although Zhang Lei refused, he was curious, what can such an old man give himself? A roll of yarn? A pictorial? Or a bunch of age-old ornaments? What will this two-sided grandmother give herself?

The old grandmother put her hand behind her back and fumbled, and soon took out a ring from her thick hair and handed it to Zhang Lei.

"Let's go, it'll be too late if you don't leave"

Zhang Lei didn't expect that he would immediately reach out, the ring was already in his hand, as if this old grandmother had a magic that people couldn't refuse. The old woman stopped talking, closed her eyes, and let out a weight-bearing breath. Zhang Lei was afraid that his refusal would disturb his grandmother's rest, and since the ring was already in his hand, he had no reason to put it down, so he was ashamed, got up and bowed deeply, and watched the lights in the room turn on Zhang Lei and left.

Touching the ring in his hand, he could feel from the texture that this was just an ordinary ornament plaything, nothing attractive, and kicked the ring into his pocket, Zhang Lei quickened his pace.

The old grandmother floated up from the moment Zhang Lei turned around and watched him go away, just like looking at her departed children and grandchildren, her eyes were full of heartache, the cold wind blew through the old grandmother's face and led to affectionate tears, Zhang Lei wanted to be glad that he didn't look back tonight......

The village chief rushed to the door early in the morning, panting and straightening his waist, and the widow was amused to look at his embarrassment, which was even weaker than a woman.

"Old boss, the village chief is here!" The widow laughed and shouted into the house,

Zhang Lie put down the work in his hand and glanced at Zhang Lei beside him, Zhang Lei was a little dazed, and his eyes were not as calm as Zhang Lie.

"Slow down, slow down, village chief, are you in such a hurry to come from afar?" Zhang Lie said with a smile and motioned to Zhang Lei behind him to close the door before going out.

The village chief didn't mean to go to the house to loot again, asked for a bottle of beer and sat aside, drank more than half of it and lit a cigarette before he continued: "Brother, I said the wrong thing before, Zhang Lei didn't leave in three days, he was going to leave in the afternoon, the car outside the village is about to come, hurry up and prepare,"

After the village chief finished speaking, he ran back without looking back, and he had to notify the people from the village committee to come over and see Zhang Lei off together.

"Hurry up and prepare...... "Zhang Lie finished speaking, and sat down on the ground.

It was a thunderbolt on a sunny day, Zhang Lei's brain was blank, all the previous plans were now empty words, there was no time to go to Wushan, no time to see Zhang Lian, and no time to see his mother more...... Zhang Lei has never been so flustered as he is now, he looked at his father looking at the widow, looking at Wushan in the distance, everything came too fast.

"What are you still in a daze, what do you want to do hurry up!" The widow stomped her feet anxiously, eager to slap Zhang Lei, who was wooden.

Zhang Lei took a step and rushed out instantly, he didn't know where he was going, so he ran like this, kept running......

Everything Zhang Lie arranged was in vain, and he didn't even do the little thing of seeing off his son, he squatted in place, motionless, like a dead statue. Once again, the years carved a stroke on him with ruthlessness.

The villagers may not remember Zhang Lin as a soldier in the future, but they will definitely mention the fool running around the street after dinner.

The beggar saw Zhang Lei's running figure, he wanted to go up and ask what was going on, but his disheveled appearance, holding garbage in his hand and flies around his head always made him unable to take a step, until he heard a passerby talk about the news that Zhang Lei was about to leave, so he dropped the garbage in his hand and rushed out with a brisk step.

"Brother Zhang Lie, Brother Zhang Lie......" When he was about to reach the door, the beggar shouted Zhang Lie's name like crazy.

The widow and Wang Qiu's mother looked at the beggar outside the house in disgust, and turned their heads into the room.

"Brother Zhang Lie..... Why are you still here, Zhang Lei is running around the street like crazy, are you leaving? Why don't you take a look? ”

Zhang Lie didn't speak, just raised his head and handed the beggar a cigarette, and waited for him to take it with both hands before he said slowly: "Zhang Lei is going to join the army in a while, and he is going to leave Fengtou Village."

The beggar took out a lighter from his pocket, lit a cigarette for Zhang Lie first, put the cigarette in his pocket, and then took out half of the cigarette he picked up from the other pocket and lit it: "Glory, Zhang Lei is good!" ”

Zhang Lie didn't speak again, sat with the beggar, smoked silently, and looked into the distance.

"I know what to do, I know what to do!" After the beggar finished speaking, he suddenly ran to the village market.

Everyone's eyes were no longer just staring at Zhang Lei, who was running like crazy, everyone was attracted by the beggar's shouting, and the beggar ran hoarsely and roared at the same time: "Zhang Lie's son has been conscripted into the army!" Zhang Lie's son has been conscripted into the army! Zhang Lie's son was conscripted into the army......"

The laughing crowd heard the beggar's shout and quickly began to talk, they were inconsistent, they were suspicious by nature.

Teacher Li's expression was serious, and he rushed to the classroom to announce the incident, he had just received a call from Zhang Lie two minutes ago.

I froze in place, motionless.

"Your brother is about to enlist in the army, go and send him off!"

When I heard Mr. Li repeat this sentence again, I pushed away the table and chair in front of me and rushed out with a brisk stride. Immediately followed by Wang Qiu, he shouted and slumped, followed by Xiongzi Xiaohei, who chased after him.

"If you want to send off Zhang Lone's brother, let's go," the teacher in class suddenly said this meaningfully, turned around and ran out.

The uncle at the door looked at Zhang Lin and rushed over, followed by the five big and three thick king balls, and the figure of the little black bear appeared, and just when he was wondering, a large group of students and teachers suddenly rushed out. It's like a 100-meter race.

"It's not dinner time yet, is it? There's no holiday either, right? "The old man hasn't figured it out yet, I've already rushed out with a brisk stride. Even hitting the iron gate didn't stop me, nothing matters at the moment, I just want to go home quickly, hurry up...... Hurry up......

Wang Qiu's body was big, he stopped in front of the goal, kicked the big iron gate to both sides, looked at the crowd behind him, he couldn't lose the second place, and rushed out with a force on his feet.

The villagers have never seen such a formation, a group of students are running in the same direction, isn't it the village committee that gives benefits? When the first villager couldn't bear to follow the crowd and started running, everyone panicked and put down their work. The old and the young all followed these students, running like a great escape, without knowing the purpose.

The people around the door of the house are three layers outside the three, everyone discussed and knew that Zhang Lei's enlistment was in vain, and some people even scolded a few words, saying that this little thing delayed their precious time, but they didn't see them leave, still standing in place, looking at home from time to time. Seeing the widow come out of the back room, the crowd exploded, and everyone happily changed the topic to discuss, and the words were nothing more than this woman.

Zhang Lei felt a panic in the house, he knew that these people were not there to see him off, he felt like a vicious prisoner at the moment, waiting to be ruthlessly judged by this group of people.

Zhang Lei was a little out of breath, and he and Zhang Lie smoked cigarettes one after another.

Zhang Lie was already relieved, he told Zhang Lei: "Everything is the best arrangement, then let him come naturally, don't be afraid, after all, I've been looking forward to it for so long"

Zhang Lei nodded, he hoped to slow down, the person who picked him up was a little slower, and a little slower......
