"The eldest brother is ten years older than me, and he was forty-eight ...... when he died" The middle-aged man didn't hide anything, took a bag from Yueya's hand, a trace of gloom flashed on his face, and said in a low voice.

"Manager Du, ...... you" Xu Zhi was a little surprised and asked, "You gave birth to Yueya at the age of twenty, so didn't you marry Yueya's mother at the age of nineteen?" ”

"Ahem...... the middle-aged man coughed, deliberately avoiding this question, and said, "Mr. Du, you still call me Du Zhaoye, we are all surnamed Du, although we can't be sure if you are the Du family of Shuinan Qinyang, but we were a family at least five hundred years ago!" ”

"It's good!" Xu Zhi walked slowly along the river, watched Yueya wave his hand at the children swimming in the river, and said with a smile, "Then I'll call you by your name, as for my name, I already told Yueya yesterday, I am going to find out my background, and I am not going to use my previous name, so I won't tell you." ”

"You're welcome, sir!" Du Zhaoye hurriedly replied, "Mr. has an elegant temperament and is introverted, which is the only time I have seen it in my life, even if you tell me my name, I don't dare to call it, it is better to call Mr. Du." ”

"Du Zhaoye ......" Xu Zhi nodded and asked softly, "I heard Yueya briefly talk about your situation yesterday, and I will talk to you today, I think you are a very talented businessman, your career is very successful, and your future development is limitless, why did you separate from Yueya's mother?" ”

"Mr. Du isn't married yet, is he?" Du Zhaoye asked rhetorically.

"Nope!" Xu Zhi smiled and replied, "I haven't found a suitable one yet." ”

"Yes, Mr. hasn't found a suitable one now, how can the wife I was looking for in my teens grow old together?" Du Zhaoye slowed down, deliberately widened the distance from Yueya, and explained, "Our family has a rule, you must get married before the age of twenty, it was okay before, everyone didn't see much of the world, and it will be over in the village." Now it can't be, my mother and I are classmates in the township, I got married not long after graduation, I had a moon bud, and then the reform and opening up, everyone went out to work to make money, we naturally didn't want to stay at home, but this out, the horizon was opened, everyone's views were different, I think read more, knowledge can change fate, and her mother thinks that making money is the first thing, so, you know...... We've had a lot of quarrels since Yueya was sensible......"

Xu Zhi frowned and asked, "Why do you have to get married before the age of twenty?" ”

"That's because we all have short life expectancies, most of us don't live to be 50, and some die in their thirties! If our family wants to multiply, we must get married early and give birth to offspring early......" Du Zhaoye glanced at Xu Zhi and explained, "This is the sorrow of our family, I don't know if you regret coming to Qinyang to find your roots after hearing this." ”

Xu Zhi shrugged his shoulders and said with a smile: "Whether I find my roots or not, if my surname is Du, fate has dictated, can I hide?" ”

"Alas, Mr. Du can still see it!" Du Zhaoye sighed, "When my dad left us early, and when my mom told me about this secret, I resented it for a long time!" ”

"It's not that I understand!" Xu Zhi looked at the entrance of the village, which was not far away, and replied, "It's my experience that is enough to tell me this, and you didn't understand it at that time." ”

"Yueya probably doesn't understand, and he doesn't understand!" Du Zhaoye smiled bitterly, "Her mother took her to leave me, of course, because of our emotional discord, it is more likely that she still wants to get out of this bad luck, right?" ”

"If fate is like this, how can you get rid of it by changing your name and surname?"

Du Zhaoye's home is in the west of the village, in a large compound with blue bricks and blue tiles, in front of a huge plane tree, and in the shade under the tree, a man who looks to be about 50 years old is lying on a mat and sleeping soundly.

The man looks very similar to Du Zhaoye, but his hair is gray, the pu fan is blocked on his chest, and the neck is tanned.

"This is my second brother Du Zhaoming......" Du Zhaoye walked to the mat and said softly, "He is five years older than me, and he works as a farmer at home, you see, he looks like he is in his fifties." ”

Listening to the cicadas on the trees, Xu Zhi asked, "How many families are there in the village?" ”

"When I left, there were three or five households in the village, and now I don't know." Du Zhaoye said, squatted down, and shouted in a low voice, "Second brother, second brother......"

"San'er?" Du Zhaoming opened his eyes, looked at Du Zhaoye, and only came back to his senses after a while, hurriedly got up, and said, "Why are you coming back now?" Don't make a phone call first? ”

"Second uncle......" Yueya shouted obediently beside her.

"In-sook is here too?" Du Zhaoming listened to it, and hurriedly smiled, "Your grandmother has been talking about you for the past few days, saying that you have a holiday, and you should come back to see, you wait, I'll call your grandmother ......"

"Second uncle...... "Yueya hurriedly grabbed Du Zhaoming and said, "Grandma is still taking a nap, don't call her yet, we will come back today in addition to seeing you, there are other things, let's sit down and talk about it first." ”

"Oh, okay......" Du Zhaoming looked at Xu Zhi, and saw that Du Zhaoye didn't introduce him, and didn't ask much, and said, "You guys wait here, I'll go to the yard and move a table, it's cool here!" ”

"Second uncle, I'll go with you to boil water...... Yueya smiled, took the gift, and followed Du Zhaoming into the courtyard.

After a while, Du Zhaoming took the table out, Yueya brought a few small benches and put them under the tree, Yueya said apologetically: "Mr. Du, the conditions in my hometown are not good, you can bear more." ”

"I've said it all!" Xu Zhi waved his hand and said, "I also grew up in the countryside when I was a child, and I ...... like Xu Zhi."

"Xu Zhi also grew up in the countryside?" Yueya was stunned for a moment, and whispered in a somewhat incredulous voice, "He looks ...... It's very noble! ”

"You also grew up in the countryside, right?" Xu Zhi smiled, "Your temperament is different?" ”

"I, where can I compare with Xu Zhi!"

"Xu Zhi??" Du Zhaoye was making tea for Xu Zhi next to him, and at this time he suddenly raised his head and exclaimed, "Mr. Du, what did you say about Xu Zhi...... But that Xu Zhi? ”

"Xu Zhi ???" Du Zhaoming put down the teapot and said in the same surprise, "Is that Xu Zhi who asked the United Nations to lower the flag at half-mast for him?" ”

"yes!" Yueya said proudly, "It's him!" ”

"How do you know Xu Zhi?" Du Zhaoye said strangely, "I've never heard you say it!" ”

"Dad......" Yueya sighed, "I also met him occasionally when the crew stayed overnight in Yanjing, and I only met him when he came back and took our flight again." Mr. Du is Xu Zhi's New Year's friend, I told Xu Zhi that your surname is Du, all Xu Zhi told Mr. Du, and Mr. Du came to my ......"

"I see!" Du Zhaoye understood, stretched out his hand to hold Xu Zhi's hand, and said, "Mr. Du, Xu Zhi is the pride of our Chinese people, you said it was his friend earlier, and you ...... at noon today."

"Noon is hearty enough!" Xu Zhi hurriedly interrupted Du Zhaoye's words and said with a smile, "I have a deep relationship with Xu Zhi, I know his character very well, even if he is standing here alive, he will never let you be extravagant and wasteful." ”

"Both...... Sit, Mr. Du! You sit down ...... quickly," Du Zhaoming also said a little excitedly next to him, "We also watched Xu Zhi's deeds on TV, in our village, no, people in our county and city have talked about it, I only knew that foreign special forces were very powerful, and I didn't think that our soldiers were even more powerful......"

The more Du Zhaoming spoke, the more excited he became, and finally simply said: "Since Mr. Du is Xu Zhi's friend, we can't be contemptuous, you wait, I'll go get the wine!" ”

"Take ...... What are you doing with wine? Xu Zhi was dumbfounded.

"Hehe, my second brother is a good wine...... Du Zhaoye pulled Xu Zhi to sit down, and said, "Usually I don't have anything to do with making my own wine, and his one doesn't give people to drink, except for my eldest brother, I haven't drunk much, he has also been a soldier, I guess I am happy to see Xu Zhi win glory for the country, so I pull you to toast!" ”

Du Zhaoming's craftsmanship is good, and the wine he brews is good, although Xu Zhi doesn't like wine, he also drank a few glasses, watching Du Zhaoming's first glass of wine pour on the ground to pay tribute to the dead Xu Zhi, Xu Zhi himself couldn't help but sigh in his heart, the eyes of the masses are bright, and it is appropriate to put it at this time, even if he is really dead, it is worth dying.

After drinking a few glasses of wine, Du Zhaoming began to talk a lot, talking about his years as a soldier, and his words revealed his admiration and envy for Xu Zhi, Du Zhaoye wanted to stop Du Zhaoming from mentioning Xu Zhi's matter several times, but was blocked by Xu Zhi, Du Zhaoming's helplessness in his heart about the arrangement of fate, he could deeply understand that it was rare for Du Zhaoye to say his depression, let him say, how many years can he say again?

"Ahem......" Just as Du Zhaoming had a drink alone, and when he spoke again, a cough came from the gate of the courtyard, but when he saw an old woman in her seventies standing there, she looked at Du Zhaoming unhappily and said, "Er'er, why did you start drinking again?" ”

"Mother......" Du Zhaoming was startled, hurriedly put down the wine glass, got up and said, "You are up?" ”

"Grandma......" Yueya hurriedly jumped up, ran over, and shouted, "I'm back!" ”

"Ouch, it's Renshu, I'll just say, it's summer vacation, you should come back too......" Grandma heard Yueya's voice, and saw Yueya running over like a swallow, and immediately smiled on her face.

"Mother, I'm back too!" Du Zhaoye also hurriedly walked over and said with a smile.

"Something without conscience!" Grandma glanced at Du Zhaoye and said, "How long have you not been back?" And know this is your home! ”

Xu Zhi also got up, and waited for his grandmother to finish talking to Du Zhaoye and Yueya before he said respectfully: "Auntie is so ......"

"Are you ......" Grandma looked at Xu Zhi and then at Yueya, if it weren't for Xu Zhi's slightly older age, she was afraid that Xu Zhi would have to regard Xu Zhi as Yueya's boyfriend.
