The village is on the outskirts of the city of Jiazhou, surrounded by mountains on all sides, and there is only one road, which comes out of the city of Jiazhou, winding in the back of the ridge of the mountain, like a thin gray-white ribbon around the waist of a giant.

Yao Jingjing drove the car, got down from the Luliangkou of the Chunjiao Expressway, and walked on this streamer.

The car she rented from a car rental shop in Spring City. Yao's mother said that she wanted to take the train back, Yao Jingjing was worried about her mother's health, she just got off the plane, and she was about to catch the train again, and she had to go to her hometown in the countryside to go to her grandmother's grave, and she still had to have a car.

Yao's mother said that she could ask a friend to borrow a car in Jiaozhou, but Yao Jingjing was unwilling. She doesn't want to trouble others, borrowing a car is very annoying for people who have a car, don't borrow it, say that you are stingy, not enough friends, and you won't drive a bad car; Borrow it, I'm afraid that something will happen, everyone will be unlucky if something big happens, what about small things, run a red light and make a small mark, you say you still care about this with your friends?

Yao's mother doesn't think so, relatives and relatives should move around often, have contacts and help each other, and this relationship is solid. If you don't ask for people, people don't ask for you, after a long time, your relatives will fade and your friends will be gone.

Yao Jingjing feels that this is the thinking of the older generation, although it makes sense, it is no longer in line with today's times. The pace of society is so fast these days, who cares about whom? In your own affairs, try not to trouble others if you can.

She still resolutely went to rent a car. Yao's mother saw her scan her mobile phone a few times, and the car was successfully rented, and she couldn't help but be speechless: "It's so fast to rent a car now?" I remember going out with your dad before, and he went to rent a car, check his ID card, and pay a deposit. ”

Yao's father said: "That's the old yellow calendar, and then you only need to swipe the credit card to pre-authorize, now you use your mobile phone, it's more convenient!" ”

"As long as you can!" Yao's mother scoffed, "Why don't you buy a car if you show off what you can?" Let Jingjing take care of us! ”

Yao's father choked on her, but he was not annoyed, but he smiled and stopped talking. Of course, Yao's mother didn't mean to choke him, but she got used to it for so many years, probably because most of the women in the old family's family were strong, and she always liked to talk to her husband. In fact, she didn't know how difficult it was for their husbands to move from the countryside to the city and settle down. If she hadn't had this illness, their little life would have been pretty good, and not buying a car was just to save money to leave some dowry for their daughter.

"Just know how to giggle!" Yao's mother reached out to help her husband straighten the collar of his coat. This coat was bought by her daughter, and after knowing the price, the old man felt distressed for several days.

After finishing the collar of the coat, I suddenly found that my husband's sideburns had a lot more gray hair than before, and the wrinkles on his face were deeper. Yao's mother touched his face and said, "It's all my fault, I shouldn't have such a disease." ”

Yao's father held her hand: "Isn't this all good, the illness is also cured, and the daughter is also reliant, you should be happy!" ”

Yao's mother laughed: "Do you know what is the most successful thing you have done in your life?" ”

"What?" Yao's father asked.

Yao's mother said: "It just helped me give birth to such a capable daughter!" ”

Yao's father jumped up, hit his head on the roof of the car, sat back with a sigh, covered his head and said, "What do you mean I helped you give birth to a daughter?" There's something wrong with what you say, it should be that you helped me give birth to a daughter, Jingjing's surname is Yao! ”

Yao's mother said: "Go and go, I will let Jingjing have your surname, that is to give you face, you still kick your nose in the face, Jingjing has the blood of our old family in her bones, otherwise she can be so promising!" ”

Yao's father stalked his neck: "Then she is also surnamed Yao!" ”

Yao Jingjing looked at the appearance of the second elder, and wanted to laugh in her heart, so she said: "Dad, Mom, how old are you both, and you are still so tired!" ”

Yao's mother said angrily: "Where are we tired? ”

"It's not too crooked, whoever helps someone have a child all day long, you should give me another brother!" Yao Jingjing said with a smile.

Yao's father said: "Your mother suffered a lot when she gave birth to you, and she was no longer happy to give birth, otherwise she would have added a piece to the old Yao family." ”

Yao's mother said: "You want to be beautiful, if you want to give birth, you will also give birth to a little daughter, who will give birth to a son for you!" ”

Yao's father said, "My daughter is okay too!" This is what you said, if you don't go back, you will get one, anyway, your illness is almost better, and I have been holding back for two years. ”

Yao's mother suddenly became serious when she heard him, and snorted: "What do you say in front of the child!" ”

Yao Jingjing's face flushed: "Dad! Mother! ……”

Looking out of the front window of the car, I just felt that there was no way out, but suddenly I saw it like a noodle in the hand of a ramen chef, and it became endlessly long. The clouds and mist swirled around the mountainside outside the car, and it really felt like floating in the clouds.

Yao Jingjing opened the window a little to let fresh air into the car, although it was a little cold, but it was refreshing.

Yao's mother was still blaming her husband for his unscrupulous words just now, and she wanted to pinch a few handfuls on him to vent her anger when she saw his hippie smiling face, but it was not good for her daughter's face, so she smelled the fresh mountain air and took a comfortable breath:

"Ah, I smell the smell of my hometown again, it's so comfortable!"

"Why can't I smell it?" Father Yao shrugged his nose and sniffed, "Isn't it just the smell of earthy seeds!" ”

Yao's mother said angrily: "What kind of earthy smell, this is called nostalgia, no culture!" He recited the poem with emotion, "It's only been seven days since spring, and it's been two years since I left home." After the people return to the geese, they think in front of the flowers. ”

Yao Jingjing said: "Mom, you are so good, you can also remember to recite poetry." ”

Yao's mother sighed and said, "Alas, I'm old, my memory is getting worse and worse, and I can still remember these things I memorized when I was a child." ”

Yao's father said: "When your mother was young, she was really a talented girl, in today's words, she is called beauty and wisdom at the same time, otherwise I wouldn't have taken a fancy to her." ”

Yao's mother was happy in her heart, and said angrily: "Who is rare and you have taken a fancy to it!" Alas, when I was a child, I was in the midst of the Cultural Revolution, and I didn't have any books to read, otherwise I would have been able to go to a junior college. ”

Yao Jingjing said: "Mom, you don't have a book to read, where did you learn so many poems that taught me to memorize when I was a child?" ”

"That's what my grandmother taught me." Yao's mother said.

"Grandma?" Yao Jingjing said curiously, "Isn't Grandma Tai a countryman, is she a lady before liberation?" ”

Yao's mother said: "The ancestors of the old family are also wide, and your grandmother is a well-known figure back then." She even went to military school when she was young! ”

"Huh?" Yao Jingjing shouted in surprise, "Mom, you can laugh, grandma was still in the Republic of China when she was young, how could there be a woman in the military academy at that time?" ”

Yao's mother said: "Then I don't know, I remember seeing a photo of my grandmother wearing a military uniform when she was young, she was handsome!" Later, I asked her where it was filmed, and she said it was in Wuchang. ”

Yao's father said: "I know this ......"

Yao's mother said, "You know a fart! How can you know something I don't even know? ”

Yao's father said: "I really know that the Wuchang branch of the Huangpu Military Academy has recruited a group of female students, more than 200 people, and is the first batch of female officers in China and the only group before the liberation. They have been on the battlefield, and they are all amazing women. Soon after the April 12 coup, they were disbanded, some went to the Soviet Union, some went to the propaganda teams of the various units, and some returned to their hometowns. There is a writer named Xie Bingying who is one of those students, and she wrote a book "Army Diary", which tells this story. ”

"So my grandmother really went to military school?" Yao Jingjing couldn't help but yearn for it, and the image of an old woman with two guns in a TV series popped up in her mind.
