Chapter 159: Don't Tell Her
Every household in Liujia Village is very close, plus Liu Bing's comrades-in-arms sent his ashes back, how could the people in the village not know?
Qi Yu and Li Gyugui also thought of this, and they probably understood, but they were afraid that only Grandma Liu in the whole village would not know about it. And the people in the village refused to tell them, because they were worried that they would tell Grandma Liu about the situation.
"Go to Uncle Liu first and see what he has to say." Li Gyugui held Qi Yu's hand and nodded to him, and the two returned to Uncle Liu's house without stopping.
Uncle Liu has two sons and a daughter. The daughters have been married, the sons have married wives, and the grandchildren are in elementary school. In addition to herding sheep every day, Uncle Liu cooks for his little grandson, and now he has to take care of Grandma Liu. When Qi Yu and Lee Gyu-gyu went to Uncle Liu's house, they pounced, and the neighbors told them that Uncle Liu had gone out to herd sheep.
Lee Gyu-gyu and Qi Yu followed the path pointed out by the villagers and looked for it.
It only rained last night, and the road in the village was a little muddy, so Qi Yu and Lee Gyu-gyu both changed into comfortable travel shoes, but they also got a foot in the mud. When both of them were about to lose their feet, they finally found Uncle Liu's figure.
Uncle Liu led his two sheep, sat on the edge of the grass beach and smoked, wearing a Red Army cap, his brows furrowed, as if he was worried about something.
The grass beach was even more muddy, and Qi Yu and Li Gyugui walked to Uncle Liu's side with a deep foot and a shallow foot. Uncle Liu's ears were not very good, and he didn't even notice their arrival.
"Uncle, Uncle Liu." Lee Gyu-gyu called him in his native dialect.
Uncle Liu was so frightened that he shuddered, and the cigarette stick almost fell to the ground: "When did you two little dolls come, why did you come here?" It's all mud, it's not fun, so go back. ”
"Uncle, we have something we want to talk to you about." Li Gyugui saw that the place where Uncle Liu was sitting was quite dry, so he sat down on the spot without paying attention to it, Qi Yu hesitated, a little afraid of insects, but still sat down.
"Doll, what do you want to say?" Uncle Liu sighed, feeling really depressed. He is not the kind of person who can hide things, and it is not easy to hide from Grandma Liu for so long. Now being forced to ask by two little dolls, Uncle Liu suddenly felt exhausted.
"I just wanted to ask you something." Li Gyugui saw Uncle Liu's helplessness, so he lowered his voice: "We just contacted Liu Bing's former comrades-in-arms......
As soon as the words fell, Uncle Liu's face changed, looking at Li Gyugui and Qi Yu, his lips trembled, and he couldn't say anything.
"I heard that Liu Bing has ...... sacrificed. Lee Gyu-gyu said slowly, and then observed Uncle Liu's reaction.
Uncle Liu was stupid in place, and then reluctantly calmed down: "Hu ...... Nonsense, that person must have lied to you. Didn't I show it to you, the soldier sent all the letters, he was fine, there was no problem! ”
Li Gyugui and Qi Yu glanced at each other, and after making a look, they turned their heads and sank their faces at Uncle Liu: "Uncle, why don't you let Grandma Liu know the news of Liu Bing's death?" Is it for the pension given by the state after Liu Bing's sacrifice? ”
"Don't talk nonsense!" Uncle Liu immediately became anxious, and stomped on the ground with his feet: "I will call my sister for all the money!" I don't know a single point! ”
After speaking, Uncle Liu paused. Seeing Lee Gyu-gyu's somewhat apologetic eyes again, he immediately understood that this girl said such things just to deceive him. He eagerly clarified, and admitted the fact that Liu Bing had indeed sacrificed.
Uncle Liu sighed, sat back on the ground, trembling his hands and wanted to light the pipe again, but failed several attempts. In the end, he threw away the cigarette stick, covered his face and cried.
This time Li Gyugui and Qi Yu panicked, an uncle in his sixties cried in front of their two juniors, and they were at a loss and didn't know what to do.
"My sister, my sister is miserable. Why did the soldier baby go like this, how could it......"
"I took a handful of ashes back and put them in front of me, and I immediately plucked them over. Bingwa is still so young and hasn't started a family yet, so I don't dare to tell her. Uncle Liu cried uncontrollably, and his voice was choked: "The soldier baby has already left, I can't let my sister suddenly follow." She's such a son, she can't stand it. ”
Uncle Liu cried for a long time, and his voice began to be hoarse before he stopped. Since getting the news of Liu Bing's death, Uncle Liu has been going door-to-door to beg the people in the village not to tell Grandma Liu about Liu Bing's death. Then he buried Liu Bing behind Grandma Liu's back, and took the whole family to hide it from Grandma Liu, forged letters, and gave Liu Bing's pension to Grandma Liu in monthly installments.
He didn't dare to tell others about these things, so he could only hold them in his heart. But Liu Bing is also the nephew he hugged with one hand, and he feels very uncomfortable, and now when he thinks about it, his chest feels like he is holding his breath.
Later, Qi Yu and Lee Gyu-gyu came, he still made up his mind to hide it, especially when his sister fell, and he couldn't do it when he saw it, he hoped that his sister would be happy when she lived, and she had a thought to look forward to her son. When she saw her son in the underworld, she asked Bingwa to tell her herself.
"So you wrote those letters yourself and sent them yourself." Lee Gyu-gyu said in a declarative tone.
"Yes, I'll write it, copy it again from my youngest son, and send it out. My sister doesn't know much about reading, so I read it to her. Now that it has been exposed, Uncle Liu no longer hides it, and tells everything about it: "Before you came, I said hello to the people in the village, don't tell you about it." Everyone took pity on my sister, so they all agreed. ”
"But, if you don't tell Grandma Liu, are you really good to her?" Li Gyugui pursed his lips: "Grandma Liu thought that Liu Bing had not passed away yet, and she was not stable when she closed her eyes. ”
"You don't understand!" As soon as he said this, Uncle Liu retorted a little excitedly, there are indeed many people who usually say this kind of thing: "According to what you say in the city, it is the white-haired people who send the black-haired people!" My sister has such a son, and after the man ran away, she pulled her son up by herself. The soldier baby almost grew up on my sister's back! ”
After Uncle Liu finished yelling, he shrank back and said cautiously: "I know that you are from the city, and you know a lot, and you will find out at a glance that the letter I wrote is fake." But don't tell my sister, she's old, and it's not long before she ...... The doctor said that she is so energetic now, it is to return to the light......"
Uncle Liu wiped his face: "Just let me send her away safely." ”
Li Gyugui and Qi Yu glanced at each other and sighed in their hearts, but looking at Uncle Liu's pleading gaze, they still agreed.
