Actually, it's natural to visit your elders when you go home as a junior.

It's just that Lin Musen felt that he hadn't returned for many years, and then, as soon as he came back, he came to visit, which seemed a little abrupt.

If you don't invest in Daao Village, Lin Musen still wants to come to the door after a while, after all, the strangeness will become familiar after living for a long time, so that the door will not disturb the other party, otherwise when you come back, you will come to the door with gifts, and people still think that you have something to ask for, and it will inevitably be embarrassing at that time.

So far, Lin Musen has been back for a while, and if he doesn't come to the door again, it seems that he is a little rude.

Relatives don't care about what you send, even if you are empty-handed, they will be happy, the old people actually care more about your personal visit to their heart, the countryside sometimes pays special attention to these etiquette, which is also one of the etiquette left by the ancestors.

There is a kind of inexplicable and unclear meaning between relatives, otherwise how can it be said that Huaxia is a personal society.

But the times are changing, in the past, the countryside celebrated the New Year, or did not visit for a long time, bringing a basket of eggs is also a very precious gift, to now, do not bring a gift of 100 yuan and 1,000 yuan, as if they dare not come to the door.

Of course, that's only some places, most of the rural areas are still very honest and simple, you come, he will treat you well, you bring them gifts, they can't wait to bring out the best things in the house for you as a gift in return.

This can be regarded as a kind of courtesy, but now the courtesy exchange in the city seems to be a bit profitable, losing the simplicity that should have been, and becoming very impure.

Many people yearn for rural life, in fact, they are yearning for a short, simple and warm life among the parents in the neighborhood.

Uncle Jun's home is near the old banyan tree, that is, in the middle of the village, the day before yesterday he wanted to take Lin Musen home to go home and talk, but Lin Musen was a little embarrassed with his empty hands, so he had to accompany him to play a game of chess and fool the past.

At this time, it is almost eight o'clock, and at present, Daao Village belongs to the early stage of spring busyness, if it is not for Lin Musen to contract the back mountain, the villagers can still have a leisurely time, and now there are some women with children in the village, and some old people.

Most of the old people in Daao Village are very healthy, and some of the old people in their seventies and eighties still go up the mountain to cut bamboo, cultivate the fields, and play chess, play cards, and chat when they are free............ Although he is not very rich, he is very fulfilled and satisfied.

There is a jujube tree in front of the door of the military uncle's house, so it is easy to recognize, when Lin Musen was a child, when the jujube tree was ripe, he often climbed up to beat dates, and he beat it himself, and Lin Tao picked it up below.

At that time, it was really a very satisfying thing to be able to eat dates, and the military uncle would take a basket for them to pack, and he didn't mind them beating dates at all.

When he was almost there, Lin Musen saw Uncle Jun sitting on a bamboo chair smoking a dry cigarette, swallowing clouds and spitting mist, with an expression of enjoyment, the folds on his face were like ravines and ravines, and behind him was the jujube tree that was a little old.

The dry tobacco smoked by the second uncle is different from some places, the cigarette stick is made of bamboo, small bamboo, the kind with rhizomes, Lin Musen's grandfather also smoked it before, it is a special object of that generation, and now few people are using it.

Before Lin Musen walked in front of Jun Bogong, he saw that the tobacco on his bamboo cigarette stick had been burned, so Jun Bogong bowed his body, picked up the bamboo cigarette stick and knocked it on the ground, and the sound of 'da da' echoed in the street.

The familiar voice seemed to bring Lin Musen back to his youth.

His grandfather also sat at the entrance of the village like this, smoking dry tobacco one by one, waiting for him to return from school, and after smoking, he knocked the cigarette stick on the ground, knocked out the ashes, replaced it with new tobacco, and continued to smoke.

When Lin Musen came back from the mountain road, the cigarette ash was in a pile, and his grandfather would take his schoolbag and ask him what he had studied today, whether the teacher was good, and whether he got along well with his classmates............

At a very young age, he had a wish, when he grew up, he would let his grandfather smoke the best tobacco and show off to his friends and relatives in the village, so that he would be proud of him.

But when he went to Kyoto, the time to come back became less and less, and his grandfather was getting old day by day, and then died suddenly of myocardial infarction, Lin Musen's wish could no longer be realized.

He regretted that he felt the pain of wanting to raise his son but not waiting for him, this pain tormented him, especially when he was alone, sometimes even a little inexplicable, inexplicably uncomfortable, and crying.

It's been a few days since he came back, and Lin Musen didn't even dare to go to his grandparents' graves to pay respects, he was afraid that he would not be able to control his emotions, that he would not be able to accept the reality, and that all kinds of things would happen.

This is also the reason why he has been refusing to come back before, and if it weren't for his serious illness, he might not really come back.

Lin Musen's motionless thoughts, reminiscing about the past, the scenes are like yesterday, but when people go to the empty building, they are gone, they are all gone............

At this time, Jun Bogong knocked out the cigarette ash, and was getting up to change the cigarette, when he looked up, he saw Lin Musen standing there stupidly with something, so he shouted loudly: "Little wood, what's the flute, come here." ”

"It's coming! It's coming!"

The loud and familiar voice of the military uncle woke up Lin Musen, Lin Musen sorted out his mood and responded, and walked over.

Seeing Lin Musen coming over, the second uncle filled the new tobacco, lit the fire and began to smoke it, and jokingly joked: "Little wood wants to eat your uncle's dates again?" ”

"Yes, uncle, even if the jujube trees in the entire Daao Village are very sweet in your family, I haven't eaten them for many years, my mouth is greedy, and when the time comes, call me, I will definitely eat a fine light, hehehe." ”

Lin Musen was looking at the jujube tree behind Jun Bogong just now, and it was inevitable that he would joke like this, but Lin Musen also took it and responded playfully, in the old man's mind, no matter how old you are, you are a child in front of them.

"You, you, go, go inside and have a cup of tea. ”

"Okay!"

While snorting dry tobacco and carrying a bamboo chair, the military uncle took Lin Musen into the house.

As soon as he stepped on the threshold, Uncle Jun began to shout: "Old woman, pour a cup of tea, come and have guests." ”

"What is it called, you know!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a crisp voice came.

Lin Musen entered the military uncle's house and found that there were exquisite wood carvings on the pillars and windows of his house, and the things were placed in an orderly manner, giving people a very chic feeling. Lin Musen also came to play before, but he forgot about it for too long, and I'll see you again today, and it's quite stylish.

Seeing that Uncle Jun had put the chair away, Lin Musen handed him the gift.

Uncle Jun didn't refuse, took it, opened it easily, and when he saw the good cigarettes and wine, his eyes suddenly lit up a little cloudy, and he muttered: "Yes, yes, I haven't smoked this for a long time, and this wine, I haven't drunk it for more than 20 years." ”

Jun Bogong was a soldier when he was young, he had a bold and heroic personality, and he also loved Lin Musen when he was a child, and Lin Musen also admired him, after all, the country at that time was bought by this group of soldiers with flesh and blood.
