The old lady's words surprised me. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

I know a lot about the old squad leader's family background, if the old squad leader can get married, it is both unexpected and reasonable.

When I was a soldier, although I had never met the relatives of the old squad leader, he told me that there was only one surviving close relative in his family, named Zhao Haijuan, who married a daughter-in-law at an early age, but never had children. I should be in my forties by now. In the future, only my old squad leader, Zhao Haipeng, is left in the Zhao family.

Zhao Haipeng has not been dealt with because of his relationship as a soldier, which has also become a major problem for the Zhao family. The old squad leader even told me that as soon as he went home in previous years, his brother and sister-in-law forced him to marry a daughter-in-law and go on a blind date, which caused a little shadow in his heart.

But the specific reason, I don't think it's that simple......

However, the old squad leader also said that he is actually looking forward to married life, and if possible, when he finishes his service and stabilizes, he will find a beloved woman to spend the rest of his life. When the time comes, we will definitely inform the whole company to come and drink the wedding wine.

I remember these words to death! I don't know if he forgets, but I can't forget anyway, because I'm waiting for the money.

Later, we were suddenly discharged from the army for some reason. Unlike the normal discharge ceremony, our company only had a hurried dismissal order, no flowers, no applause, and only the heads of the soldiers held high.

A head that doesn't admit defeat.

Later, the old squad leader returned to his hometown. Continuing his ancestor's experience of going out to work and earning money for crafts, it wasn't until I heard him say on the phone, let's come to Lunan Zhaojialou to find him, I didn't know that he had returned to his hometown, and ...... There is an urgent matter.

This time, the urgent matter turned out to be getting married. But listening to the voice and tone of the old squad leader, it seems to be a forced marriage?

Ay! It doesn't matter, it's always a good thing to be able to "get off the list", the old squad leader is almost forty years old, what's there to be picky about, in the ugly daughter-in-law, she pulled the light at night, isn't it the same?

So, I also smiled happily at the old lady, both happy for the old squad leader and happy for myself.

After so many days, I finally heard a happy event, and this is a good sign!

I was overjoyed, so I hurriedly thanked the old lady, turned around with Momiji and prepared to return to the pickup.

I can't wait to tell Zhao Hong the news, and at the same time I want to discuss with him how much money I should have.

But just as the two of us turned around and were about to leave, the old lady smiled behind us and said goodbye, "Go slowly!" Son! Come! Say goodbye to your brothers! They ...... right away We're on our way! ”

The old lady's hoarse voice made me shudder.

What do you mean we're about to hit the road? And she was obviously alone, just now...... I didn't see her son!

Hearing this, Momiji and I both had questions at the same time, so we turned back and looked at the old man dressed in black.

At the same time, the two of us were surprised to find that the old lady was waving the white-faced villain in her hand...... Waved goodbye to us.

The "white-faced man" had raised a hand at some point, as if ...... Really saying goodbye to us!

Could it be that the old lady said that the son ...... Is it the white doll in her hand?

I looked at the withered old man and the white cautious doll in her hand, and I was full of excitement. It was as if someone had poured a scoop of cold water from the beginning, and he trembled.

"Let's go!" Momiji tugged at my hand, and said with the same palpitations: "This old lady is not normal, take a white-faced doll as a child......"

I listened to Momiji's words and came back to my senses, and then, the two of us ran out of the alley like a plague god and ran towards our pickup truck.

When I arrived near the pickup, as soon as I saw Zhao Hong, I quickly told him the news of the old squad leader's happy event.

Zhao Hong's expression was the same as mine, the same excitement and surprise.

Zhao Hong also said: "This old squad leader is really true, and his daughter-in-law doesn't tell us on the phone, the confidentiality work is too good!" Are the brothers outsiders? ”

"Huh!" I told him with a smile, "Isn't that understandable? It is estimated that the master can't take it, I'm afraid that our expectations are too high...... Praise him. ”

Zhao Hong waved his hand and said: "It's a good thing to be able to get off the list!" Who will praise him, forget it, we don't want to do so much, let's go to the old squad leader's house quickly! It's late, and it is estimated that it will not be able to catch up with the cave room. ”

In this way, we drove according to the old lady's direction, all the way to the southeast corner of the village.

About a third of the way later, we came to the port of an alley.

In the east, it should be the old squad leader's home, and the pickup truck can't go in.

The alley was not deep, but there was a corner, and it sounded very lively inside, and although I couldn't see anyone, the shouting and music coming from the alley were clearly audible.

The voices were so clear that I could immediately tell that it was joy, the sound of cups and fists in the middle of the feast.

Standing at the mouth of the alley, I looked in.

It seems that the old squad leader ...... It's really married.

In an instant, I seemed to see the whole village congratulating the old squad leader, and the old squad leader, who was also wearing a big red flower on his head, guarding his ugly daughter-in-law, looking forward to our arrival.

In addition to the excitement, Zhao Hong suddenly patted me on the shoulder and said, "Call the old squad leader?" ”

I stopped, "He definitely won't have time to pick it up, let's go straight over!" Let Hongye and Ah Si look at Wang Roar and the car. ”

So, we asked Hyun Hongye to take the unconscious Wang Roar to park. Zhao Hong and I walked into the alley while counting the money.

Soon, we turned the corner of the alley and went straight to the door of a compound.

In front of the gray-tiled and red-brick courtyard, I immediately saw a man with gray temples.

The man was curled up in a wheelchair, dressed in a black suit and hunched back, and he was stunned to see us coming.

His expression was as surprised as we were.

That...... Isn't that my old squad leader?!

Why did he do it in a wheelchair? His legs ...... What's wrong with it?

The old squad leader was old and sick, and his weak body was completely unexpected by me and Zhao Hongquan, so that at the moment of meeting, we had both the excitement of reunion and the sadness and accident in our hearts.

I haven't seen each other for more than three years, we have all changed a lot, the old class is elder, and we are sick, and we ...... It's not a child anymore.

That feeling makes my heart cool and my nose sour.

But we must have been men, and we used to be soldiers, so we didn't cry.

In the silence, everything is silent, and when we meet again, we can hear the loud sound of the military horn......

The two of us walked up to the old squad leader with a dull expression, looked at each other slightly, and knelt down with a "bang"!

Immediately afterwards, in the complicated eyes of the squad leader, we hugged his broken body, crying bitterly, venting, and wailing.

Wiping our tears, we poured out the depression in our hearts, pouring out the thoughts we hadn't seen for three years and the hardships we had endured.

In tears, I said to the old squad leader: "Squad leader! How did you hurt your leg? Why don't you tell your apprentice? ”

Old squad leader: "Actually, ......"

Zhao Hong interrupted: "That's the squad leader!" Why do you hide everything from us? Don't you even tell us about such a big thing as marriage? ”

"This ......"

"Squad leader! You'll have a daughter-in-law in the future! You have to live a good life, this leg injury, slowly heal, you have to have confidence! ～”

"I ......"

"Old squad leader! Tian Fuji, he was right! Sister-in-law, ugly, don't take it to heart! It's the same with the lights pulled at night! My second uncle told me that a daughter-in-law who can give birth to children is a good daughter-in-law! The rest is......"

"Uh-huh?!!!"

…… In this way, we don't know how long we cried hysterically.

It wasn't until our choked voices were a little quieter that the old squad leader patted us on the back with embarrassment and said, "That...... Did you recognize the wrong person? I...... Not Zhao Haipeng. ”

"What?" I looked up with tears in my eyes and looked at the old squad leader in a wheelchair with a blank expression.

How can it be?!

The person in the wheelchair, after seeing that we were no longer crying, immediately told us, "I am Zhao Haikun...... Zhao Haipeng is my younger brother, the squad leader you are talking about...... That's him, right? ”

I listened to Zhao Haikun's words, and suddenly felt that I was petrified in an instant!

This man is a big loss!

In all fairness, this Zhao Haikun is simply carved out of the same mold as my old squad leader. However, if you look closely, you can also see many clues and differences.

Compared with the old squad leader in my memory, Zhao Haikun is obviously much older, and the whole person is much thinner.

The most important thing is that Zhao Haikun is in a wheelchair.

Actually, if it weren't for three years of not seeing each other, if it weren't for my surging mood. It's not going to put such a big oolong.

Now it's okay, I can't get off the stage, and the king yells that if they know, they won't be able to praise me anyway.

However, compared to our embarrassment, the elder brother of the old squad leader, Zhao Haikun, was much more generous, he laughed and resolved our embarrassment, and then returned to that somewhat decadent normal, stretched out his finger and pointed at me and said, "You are Tian Fuji, right?" My brother kept saying that you were coming over the other day, and I can come today...... We, the Zhao family, are very happy. ”

Zhao Haikun's words finally gave me room to borrow a donkey from the slope.

So I quickly nodded and said, "That's me!" Uncle, where is my master Zhao Haipeng? I heard that he got married today? The whole village is here? I want to meet him! ”

Hearing this, Zhao Haikun slowly stretched out his arm, pointed to the door behind him and said, "He just worshipped the hall and went in...... You'll be able to see him. I will lead you there. ”

Zhao Haikun's words made me happy again, and then we pushed his wheelchair and walked together to the gray tile and red brick courtyard.

In the courtyard, the first thing we saw was a feast full of seven or eight tables.

Sure enough, as the old lady said, on today's special day, all the men and women of the village came to the Zhao family's compound to eat. In an instant, I felt the lively atmosphere in my face.

However, in this lively "wedding", I found a lot of discordant factors.

Because of these factors, my mood quickly changed from festive, to surprised, and from surprised, to horrified!

And the most horrible reason for me was that in the lively courtyard, I came up and saw a huge white banner, which was written in black pen: "Congratulations to Zhao Haipeng, Wang 'so-and-so', and the marriage is auspicious!" ”

Secret marriage?! How could my old squad leader be a secret marriage? Don't...... Is he dead?

At this time, Zhao Haikun, who was sitting in a wheelchair with an indifferent face, suddenly spoke up and said to us: "The second child has been dead for three days, and you haven't been able to see him for the last time!" ”

"Three days?" With a look of incomprehension, I asked repeatedly: "The old squad leader has been dead for three days?!" ”

Zhao Haikun nodded at me expressionlessly: "Today is the third day, after this underworld marriage, the second child ...... He will be buried the next day. ”

After listening to his words, I sat down in an instant as if I had been struck by a thunderbolt.

How is this possible?!

If three days ago, the old squad leader was already dead...... So who called me yesterday afternoon? And the most critical question is, the old squad leader said that he had an urgent matter to solve, and asked me to help, but suddenly, without warning, he just left?

In the face of the death of the old squad leader, my heart was like a knife, so that I swayed my body, and shouted out a "fire worker" from the bottom of my heart in the surprised eyes of everyone in the banquet!

In the midst of grief and frightening, I could only use the traditional shouting voice of the "abbot" in the temple of the five internal organs to shout at the huge white banner:

"The pillars of my Confucius Temple! Collapsed! ”
