"Dad, am I still a child?"

"It's not."

"Since it's not, then why don't you tell me that I still have a second master? If I hadn't met it, would it have been hidden from me for the rest of my life? ”

"Kid, it's not what you think. Where are you now, I'll go look for you. My dad said.

"He said he wanted to pay homage to my grandfather tomorrow, so I should go back tomorrow."

"Okay, let's meet tomorrow!" After my dad finished speaking, he hung up.

After I went back, I ate some fried dishes from my two ~ grandma. It's really delicious, of course, the matter between me and the second master can only be put aside for the time being.

The next day, Xiao Sanpang and I got into the car where the second master pulled parallel goods, and then returned to Chenjia Village. But I didn't go to Chenjia Village, and went directly to my grandfather's grave.

The second master knelt in front of my grandfather's grave, crying very sad and painful, it was not pretended. I and Xiao Sanpang are not in a good mood on the side, what kind of grievances are there between them, I really don't know as a junior.

But anyway, there isn't much hatred between brothers, right?

The second master stood up and burned all the tributes and paper money he brought, which was also a matter of concern.

As we were about to leave, I saw a figure walking from a distance. I couldn't be more familiar with that figure, it was asking my father, yes, it was indeed him.

Dad walked quickly, the expression on his face was so sad and melancholy.

"Second uncle." When my father came to us, he just nodded to me, and then came to my second master.

"Zhenhua." The second master's hands trembled a little, and the hand he raised was put down again, with a look of remorse on his face.

"Second uncle, this is the letter my father asked me to give you, take a look!" My dad took out a piece of paper from his arms, which was already a little yellowed, and handed it to the second master.

The second master's hand trembled, and he took the paper in his hand and looked at the letter. The more I look, the wetter ~ moist my eyes become, and the more I cry, the more I leave.

It was only later that I learned what was written on the letter.

"Second, I don't have a few years to live. But I just hope that you can come back and don't get angry. You were wronged outside alone, and my eldest brother didn't know where to look for you.

Second brother, in fact, I don't want any of our parents' share of the family property. My parents are ours, and my parents' things are also ours, and I don't have the exclusive rights of one person. I've kept that copy for you, and I'll be back when I get back.

Big brother knows that you are wronged, you were very naughty when you were a child, every time your parents quarrel with you, you will stand behind me and let me protect you. But you left, my parents cried for a long time, and I don't have you behind me anymore.

In the third year of your absence, our mother is blind, and you know that our father's legs and feet are not very sharp. So all this burden is on me, I have a child, a boy, and it can be regarded as the inheritance of our Chen family. I really hope that you can come back, and we will be together as a family, and we will be together in harmony, and this is the sixth year of death.

You came back last time, and I'm going to tell you all about it. opened your heart knot, but you couldn't stand the stimulation of our parents leaving, and said that I was not filial and didn't take good care of the second elder. You're right, it's true that I didn't do it well, and the death of my parents was also related to me.

We brothers, didn't I let you before? You always ask me, can we get married like everyone else? Because of this, you can get under my covers every day, you are being bullied, and I can protect you.

Hehe, you were really naïve back then. I didn't promise to be with you, but I promised to protect you for the rest of my life, but you have been gone for so many years and have never returned.

I'm afraid my time is running out, but I just want to see you before I die. Because you are my own brother, I can't see you being bullied, but I can't stand up and protect you like I used to.

Maybe you really won't come back, I, as an older brother, still haven't done what I should have done. I'm sorry, and I'm sorry for our entire Chen family.

It's been more than 30 years since I've heard anyone call me brother. And I'm already old, there is a big age gap between the two of us, and my parents only had you when they were in their forties. So I hold you, I'm afraid you'll freeze in winter, and I'll be hot in summer.

Do you remember when you asked me how you grew up yourself? At that time, I told you that you grew up drinking goat's milk, and you didn't believe it. As a result, I ran to ask my mother, and I was beaten. At that time, I really didn't lie to you, because my mother is too old to provide you with milk. I can only ask my dad to look around, to borrow, to ask for other people's goat milk to feed you.

The day before my blindness, my mother was still crying and asking me, when will you be able to come back? She misses you so much and wants you back. I lied to her that you would be back tomorrow, and I lied to her day by day. Our dad has amnesia, forgot me, and forgot Zhenhua, but he still remembers your name.

Second brother, eldest brother has no wishes. I just hope that before I die, I can see you again, so that death can rest in peace. ”

After reading the letter, the second master tore the letter directly, and then squatted on the ground and cried. Dad went over to comfort him, and my tears flowed down my cheeks.

"Big brother, I'm sorry for you, big brother."

The second master cried more and more sadly, kneeling on the ground and constantly slapping himself. But I was stopped by me, my father, and the three fat little three, saying something unpleasant, even if he killed himself, my grandfather would not be able to come back to life.

It's been more than ten years, and my grandfather's bones may be rotten, and even if they are dug up, they won't be able to see his old man's house.

The second master was sad for a while, and then slowly eased up. He looked at us and said, "I'm sorry for the Chen family, I'm ashamed of the Chen family." ”

"Second uncle, don't be like this. Even if my dad is in heaven, he doesn't want to see you like this. My dad continued to comfort.

After a long time, the second master adjusted his mood and said that he would sell all the remaining fish and then return to Chenjia Village. After all, Chenjia Village is the place where he grew up, and it is also the place where he was born and raised.

"Okay, I'll go back and vacate the house where my dad lives for you."

In fact, my grandparents' house has been uninhabited for a long time, and my father used to say that he would tear it down. Because grandma has lived with us since grandpa left. But my grandmother just didn't agree, and threatened my father with her own life, if the house was demolished, I would kill myself to show you.

In desperation, my dad slowly gave up that idea. Until now, that house is still there, it's just that it hasn't been lived in for years and needs to be cleaned.

"Hmm."

We had a meal together, and then we went back to the second master's house. But I didn't mention to my dad that I was going to Guangdong to look for mudskippers, and if he knew that I wasn't working hard at the gas station and running around, he would definitely ruin me.

But my father still asked me, "How did you meet your second master?" ”

I said with a hippie smile: Isn't this the third fat guy getting married soon? So, we went to the vegetable market to see the price of the vegetables, and then we met.

Dad was also skeptical, but he didn't have a reason not to believe it, so he believed it for the time being.

We stayed at the second master's house for another night, and the next day, we packed up the things we needed. Then I was going to go to Guangdong, for a fish, for a fish's legs, from Hebei to Guangdong, and now I think about it, it's really crazy.

That is, after that time I came back, my second master sold all the fish cheaply. Then I returned to Chenjia Village with my grandmother, and the money my family has earned over the years is enough for them to support their old age. You can still farm if you have nothing to do, or something, and you can be considered comfortable.

"Are you ready?" The second master sat in the car, poked his head out of the window, looked at me outside and asked.

"Alright, here we go." I got it sorted and got into the car. At this time, my second~ grandmother came over and gave a scarf to my second grandfather, with tears in the corners of her eyes ~ and said: "When you go out, pay attention, don't freeze." ”

"I know, old woman, after so many years, you saw that something happened to me?"

"I'm telling the child, I didn't say anything about you, look at your stinky appearance." Two~ Grandma suddenly laughed.

The little three fat who were sitting in the back of the car and I also laughed, and the car started in the midst of this laughter.
