Grandmother and Ye Shou'an's family moved to the northeast after taking root in Jinping County, grandmother has no business acumen, guarding the store and still opening a clothing shop, years of war, devils are rampant, business can not be compared with before, but life is finally passable.

Ye Shouan has not done anything to make a living in the past few years since he came to the Northeast, he is reading books and fishing all day long, and occasionally practicing calligraphy. He has a solid family background, and even if he doesn't work for the rest of his life, it is enough to make a living just by eating bank interest.

Ye Shouan bought the small courtyard next door to the Lu family's old house, and although the family lived in a crowded place, it was very warm.

Ye Guihua has reached the age of reading early, but the school in the county town has long been a yellow stall, just a decoration, so Ye Guihua follows Ye Shouan to read and write at home every day, but he can also read ordinary books.

Ye Cuihua, the second daughter of the Ye family, was sent to Ye's mother's residence in Thirty Mile Fort after she turned one year old, and the former worker Liu Laoshi was left by Ye Shou'an at Ye's mother's house to help take care of the family because of his good martial arts.

Time flies very fast, this year, little RB was beaten away. On the day the devil surrendered, Liu Sangui, a butcher in the village, ran around the village with a pig-killing knife, announcing the good news from door to door, and said that everyone who went to his house to buy meat today would be half price.

The RB devil withdrew, it is a big joy for the whole country to celebrate, and there will naturally be no fewer people who cut meat to celebrate, and the grandmother took the five-year-old Lu Youcai to Liu Sangui's house to buy an elbow, but before he arrived at Liu Sangui's stall, he found that it was like a market, and the whole street was full of people.

"Mother, do we still buy meat?" Youcai wiped his snot and asked his grandmother.

"Don't buy it, I don't know what year this queue will have to go, let's go, let's go home, Mom will give you chicken stew mushrooms at night, let's not eat elbows today." Grandmother touched Lu Youcai's little head, kind and kind.

"I'm going to eat elbows, mother, when you came just now, you said that you would give me a whole elbow to eat! I don't go to Uncle Ye's hospital, Sister Guihua always bullies me, I just want to eat elbows!" Youcai let go of his grandmother's hand and lay on the ground and played a scoundrel.

Youcai's crying attracted the attention of the people queuing around, Liu Sangui also stopped cutting meat, looked here, saw that it was his grandmother and Youcai, and hurriedly put down the knife in his hand, carrying half a fan of pork and a back elbow and came to the two: "Brother and sister, why did you two come here in person? Just now your brother came over, ordered this half-pulled pork rib and a back elbow, the money is all paid, I am still thinking about sending the meat to you home later! Liu Sangui raised his arm to wipe his sweat and looked at his grandmother, for fear that she would not be satisfied.

"Third brother, you don't need to change it, it's good, please send it to my house for a while, come, this is errand money." Grandmother said and took out a few yuan and gave it to Liu Sangui, and then took the rich little hand and turned around and left.

"Mother, when did I have an uncle?" Xiao Youcai asked his grandmother with a crooked brain.

"Your Uncle Liu drinks every day, and when you drink too much, you don't even know what your surname is, and you probably drink too much, how do you want to eat the elbow tonight? Braised and cut it white, or let your aunt make it for you to eat?"

Although the little fox fairy has not shown up in the past few years, her grandmother knows that she has been paying attention to her grandmother, such as this kind of trivial matter, which has happened from time to time over the years, and it is not surprising that grandmother has experienced a lot.

"Come, you have money, uncle will clip you a big piece of fat meat. Ye Shou'an has passed the age of not being confused, Ye's wife is also thirty-eight years old, and she gave birth to two daughters, and she is getting older, and Ye Shouan has no idea of having children, so he treats Lu Youcai, the son of his righteous brother, like a child, and thinks about wealth first when he has good things, and then his two daughters.

"Sister-in-law, I have summed it up with Feng Ru, now that the little devil has retired, we want to move back to Jiyang at some time, the house over there is still empty, I also want to go back to do some business, and it's not a matter to be so idle. Ye Shouan put a chopstick bean in the bowl, but he didn't eat it.

Grandmother was stunned for a moment, feeling a little lonely, but she still had a smile on her face: "You go back, what should Cuihua do? Your old aunt is also old, and the last time I went to Thirty Miles Fort, I heard that you asked her to mention to her that she wanted her to go to the south to retire, and guess what? She was in a hurry with me, and she pushed me out with crutches! Do you two always mention the matter of going to the south to your aunt? ”

"I'll go to the south to have a look first, and then I'll take Feng Ru and a few of them after settling down, the little devil has just surrendered, who knows if he will kill a horse pistol? I'll go back and see first." Let's not talk about this first, sister-in-law, let's eat first, Feng Ru, you clip pork ribs for Youcai, yes, it's the biggest..."Ye Shouan looked at Youcai and Guihua, who were full of oil, and grinned himself.

Ye Shou'an returned to the south, and the day after leaving, Liu Laoshi took the five-year-old Ye Cuihua and came to the Lu family's house overnight.

"Mrs., old lady, it's gone!" Liu Laoshi put Ye Cuihua down, and knelt on the ground and cried, hearing that his mother-in-law had passed away, Ye's wife Ou Fengru was also like five thunderbolts, and she was stunned for a while and didn't react.

"Feng Ru, Feng Ru, what's wrong with you, don't scare your sister-in-law, what the hell is wrong with you, your aunt is gone, don't do anything else!" Grandmother shook Ye's wife, and finally relieved Ye's wife.

"Lao Liu, what the hell is going on?" Wife Ye asked Liu Laoshi, her voice choked.

"Yesterday afternoon, the old lady took the second lady out for a walk, I don't know where I heard that the RB devil surrendered, went home and shouted that dinner should be added, and a pot of wine came, the old lady usually eats lightly, last night I don't know what's wrong, it's meat and wine, after eating and drinking, I went to rest, I didn't go out of the room at noon today, the second lady went to the old lady's room to see, only to find that the person was gone, the body was stiff at that time, I didn't dare to delay, and hurriedly took the second lady back to report the funeral. "Liu is honest and honest, and he doesn't dare to hide it.

"Didn't the little devil surrender a few days ago?" asked Grandmother, frowning.

"Grandma doesn't usually go out much, and the news has become an old news in her ears. Ye Cuihua muttered softly with a small mouth.

"Cuihua, come to Mom, grandma is gone, your father has also gone to the south, what can I do when this kind of thing happens!" Ye's wife hugged Ye Cuihua, and began to wipe away tears again when she spoke.

"Lao Liu, you eat some dry food to catch your breath, I have to entrust you to do something, this matter is urgent, the old lady did not prepare a coffin for herself before her death, you want to buy a coffin first, it doesn't matter if it is thick or thick, and then set a carriage to transport the old lady back, I want to find a way to find Master Ye to come back, we will send the old lady here for the last ride." "Grandmother is far more assertive than Ye's wife, and when she saw that Ye's wife only knew how to cry and wipe her tears, her grandmother went beyond her behalf, and arranged the things that should be done for Ye's wife.

The grandmother handed over Lu Youcai to Ye's wife, and then rushed to Jinping County alone, and when she found a big smoke house, she went in and went around, and she didn't find the bald tiger until she entered the fourth big smoke house.

This is Wang Laoba and his grandmother agreed, but in the future, whenever the Lu family has something to ask Wang Laoba to help, they will go to the big smoke house in Jinping County to find the bald tiger, the bald tiger will hide in the smoke house every day to smoke and keep an eye on it, and when he meets the rich man with oil and water, he will notify the mountain to rob a vote.

Seeing that his grandmother seemed to be very anxious, the bald tiger put down his cigarette gun and hurriedly sent a signal to inform Wang Laoba to come, and Wang Laoba kept rushing here after receiving the letter.

When the two met, the grandmother explained the intention, and Wang Laoba was not hypocritical, so he rode on the horse and rushed to Shanhaiguan.

Because Ye Shouan didn't take a train or hire a carriage, it was only a day and a night, and he couldn't go far if he wanted to. About three hours later, Wang Laoba rushed back to the Lu family's house with a sad face on his shoulder.

The Lu family's mansion was already full of wreaths at this time, and the grandmother, Ye's wife, and a few children were also dressed in plain linen and filial piety. The music played by the drum ensemble is sad and heavy, and those who hear it are sad and those who listen to it shed tears.

The old lady's body has been transported to Longmiao Village, collected into the thickest and most expensive coffin in the coffin shop in Jinping County, and placed in the middle of the hall.

Liu Laoshi and a few bandits had white cloth tied around their waists, and they were busy before and after, and they also had a bitter gourd face, like a mourner.

Ye Shouan had no children, so Lu Youcai wore linen and filial piety as a grandson, and his grandmother made him cry, and he smiled and said, "I can't cry." "Grandmother slapped him, and he cried, and the hearts of those who cried were broken.

After the funeral, Ye Shouan's family of four left the Northeast and returned to ZJ. Not long after they left, they heard that the Kuomintang and the Communist Party were going to war again, and that the northeast was a battleground for soldiers, and once a war broke out, Jinping County, the closest county town to Jinzhou, would inevitably bear the brunt.

As soon as the little devils were defeated, there was a civil war, and within a few years, the Communist Party won the world.

Some people say that the reason why the Communist Party was able to win the world was because the soldiers of the Nationalist Army fought bloodily on the battlefield of resistance against Japan, and the fundamentals were injured, and after the end of the Anti-Japanese War, the Kuomintang troops were all old, weak, sick and disabled, and there was no comparison with the Communist army that had the intention to retain its strength and did not resist the enemy head-on, so it led to the defeat and retreat in the confrontation with the Eighth Route Army.

At first glance, this sounds reasonable, but if you think about it carefully, you will find that it is full of loopholes.

Both the Kuomintang and the Communist Party invested their troops in the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression and mediated the struggle against devils, and there was no distinction between frontal resistance to the enemy and roundabout resistance to the enemy. The Japanese army is well-equipped, the national army is second, and the communist army is the worst in weaponry, even if the national army is not prosperous after the war, only the old, weak, sick and disabled are left, but the superior communist army does not know how many levels of sophisticated equipment are still there, right?

The root cause is that the common people are very afraid of war, and the soldiers of the national army are also tired of war. Officials are bent on making money regardless of the lives of the people, and the government's changing financial policies have also depreciated the hard-earned money in the hands of ordinary people to the point of waste paper. Lao Jiang, it is inevitable that the people will lose their hearts and lose the world.

Before the liberation of Northeast China, my grandmother sold her shop and ancestral home, exchanged all the banknotes for gold bars, and left only a little belongings with her.

My grandmother took my father to buy a dilapidated old house in Longmiao Village and started a new life.

In the year of the founding of the People's Republic of China, Lu Youcai, who had just returned from school, saw a letter at the door of his house, which was sent by ZJ, and it was estimated that it was Ye Shouan.

Grandmother opened the letter and read it, and couldn't help but be overjoyed!

There are only a few words on the letter: sister-in-law, Fengru is pregnant, she will give birth next month, and Wangxian's sister-in-law and nephew come to congratulate her!

The day after receiving the letter, my grandmother took the train to Jiyang, which is not a county now, but a county-level city. The two got off the train and took a ride into Ye's house.

Ye Shou'an's factory is getting bigger and bigger, and the business is becoming more and more prosperous, Jiangnan is the hometown of silk, and the locally produced cotton yarn and silk fabrics are famous all over the country.

Ye Shou'an's cloth factory products sell well in Zhejiang, Jiangxi and Fujian, and even Liangguang often has merchants to come to buy. Liu Laoshi used to be in charge of factory security, and after the founding of the People's Republic of China, he was a veritable security chief, with five or six people under his hands, and patrolling the factory all day long in custom-made security uniforms, which was very majestic.

Ye Shouan has aged a lot in recent years, full of silver hair, skinny, and seems to have bad eyes, so he has a pair of thick glasses hanging on his eyes.

Ye Guihua is fifteen this year, and he and his ten-year-old sister Ye Cuihua are like natural enemies, and they will pinch each other when they meet, and no one will let anyone.

Ye Guihua saw Lu Youcai and began to bully, Ye Cuihua couldn't see her sister bullying people, so she stepped forward to argue, and after coming and going, the three children actually fought.

On the day of Ye's wife's birth, Ye Shouan was outside with several business colleagues to attend the inaugural dinner of the new mayor of Jiyang City, Ma Revolution, the banquet was not good, I heard that Jiyang City was too badly damaged in the War of Resistance against Japan, and the new mayor made a military order with the leader before taking office, to rebuild Jiyang City. Zhao, who is also in the textile industry, said that it is estimated that the mayor's invitation this time is to slaughter Jiyang businessman Jia with a knife.

Everyone pushed the cups and changed the lamps, and the time was staggered, and the time was late at night.

Before he went home, Ye Shouan felt a trace of treachery in the air, the door was closed, and the dark red door panel looked extremely dark at night, he raised his hand and wanted to knock on the door, but he heard a faint cry from the door, in the quiet night, the warm home, out of thin air, there was a sense of uninteresting horror.

Ye Shouan didn't dare to think about it, pushed the door in, but the familiar house in front of him was a piece of silk at this time, his grandmother was holding a baby in her arms and the second daughter of the Ye family was crying, Ye Shouan seemed to understand something, and hurriedly ran to the bedroom, but found that his wife Ou Feng was lying quietly on the bed at this time, her face was as pale as paper, and she had lost her breath.

Ye Shouan felt that this was a dream, or a hallucination that occurred after drinking too much, so he pinched himself hard, grinning in pain.

This is not a dream. Ye Shouan looked at his dead wife, his heart was uncomfortable, he panicked, he really couldn't accept this heavy blow, and he slowly fell down while holding his heart.

"Shou'an, this is your son, you can name it!" The grandmother thought of the same experience as Ye Shou'an when she gave birth to her child, and this feeling grandmother can understand the most, losing a loved one and gaining a flesh and blood, one sorrow and one joy, and the pain is extreme.

"Feng Ru once said when he was alive that if he gave birth to a son, he would be called 'Ye Hulu', at that time it was mostly a joke, I think this child was born without a mother, a hard life, no blessing, and my father just promised in front of the mayor that he would donate half of the family property to fund the reconstruction of Jiyang, this child is a loser like me, and he is destined to not have a good life, so I named him 'Fulu', Ye Fulu, Fulu Shuangquan. Alas!" Ye Shouan lay on the bed, looking at the baby boy in his arms, tears raining down.

On the day of the funeral, the Guihua Cuihua sisters fought in the funeral procession, Ye Shou'an was angry, grabbed the boss Ye Guihua and started a temper, Ye Guihua, who was in love with Xun, pointed to Ye Cuihua who was full of tears next to him and cried and said: "It's her mother who killed people! first killed my grandmother, and then killed my mother!"

Ye Shouan then remembered what the Taoist had said that he and the little fox still had sixteen years of fate, and looked at the baby boy in his grandmother's arms, Ye Shouan fell silent.

"Lao Liu, do me a favor. ”

"Boss, you say. ”

"You go to the Kaiyuan Temple of Qinglong Mountain near Shanhaiguan tomorrow, help me invite a Taoist to come over, I don't know what the specific surname is, anyway, you go and ask if there is a Taoist priest who knows me, if there is, then you invite that person back, if not, you will wait there for a month, if no one says that you know me after a month, you will come back." Ye Shouan lit a cigarette and handed it to the security captain Liu Laoshi.

"Boss, my cousin is also a Taoist priest, and he is also in Kaiyuanguan, this time I will be treated as a string of relatives!" Liu honestly took the cigarette handed over by Ye Shou'an and smiled honestly.

"Well, if no one says they know me, you can bring your cousin in. Ye Shouan spat out a cigarette, and the entire office was filled with smoke in an instant.

A month later, Liu Laoshi came back alone, and when he came back, he handed Ye Shouan a note, saying that his cousin asked him to give it to Ye Shouan.

All cause and effect are determined by heaven, and after five years, I will visit again.

Ye Shouan recognized that the handwriting on this note was the same as the handwriting of the Taoist priest back then!

"Lao Liu, what's your cousin's name?" Ye Shouan asked.

"Liu Siyun. used to be called Liu Yun, but I don't know why I changed my name when I entered Taoism. Liu honestly scratched his head and replied.

"Then your cousin didn't say he knew me?"

"I didn't say it, I forgive him for not knowing you, boss, he said that we would visit you in the factory in five years, I couldn't bear to laugh at him at the time, he was not as good as me!" Liu said with a smile, with a proud face.
