In the spring of the second year, Uncle Nine was gone! Don't get me wrong, Uncle Nine is healthy.

That day, a Mercedes-Benz sedan came to the door of the store, and the well-dressed driver respectfully opened the back door of the car, and a middle-aged man in a suit and leather shoes got out of the car. This person's temperament can be seen at a glance that he should be a successful person, and he does not need to speak, but can give people a sense of oppression just between actions and actions.

I thought he was a traveler here, but I found that this person was quite similar in appearance to Uncle Jiu, but his temperament was completely different.

I politely greeted him and asked him to visit casually, he nodded slightly at me and did not speak, but walked straight to Uncle Nine.

Uncle Nine was carving a life lock on the workbench, and when he heard the movement, he glanced back at the middle-aged man, and immediately turned back to continue the work in his hand!

"Daddy!" The middle-aged man stood behind Uncle Nine and called out in a modest tone.

I was slightly surprised, I didn't expect this person to be the son of Uncle Nine, I had never heard Uncle Nine mention his life experience, and I thought he had always been alone. I didn't expect him to have such a successful son, which can't help but give me an incomprehensible feeling about Uncle Jiu's simple and frugal life.

It stands to reason that he could have enjoyed some comfortable life with his father and son, and there was no need to be a vegetarian silversmith here, and Uncle Nine once said that he had been here for decades......

"Why are you here again? Didn't I tell you not to come again? I'm fine here! Uncle Nine's tone was indifferent, and there was no change in mood because of the arrival of his son.

"Daddy! You're old, and I know you don't want to bother us, but I'm your son! I just want to do my filial piety as a son of man! You're so old, it's time for two years of happiness! ”

The middle-aged man said very sincerely, and there was even a hint of begging in his tone. It can be seen that although he has a successful career, his heart is not as cold as he looks on the outside, and he is still very filial. From his words, it can be seen that Uncle Nine has always insisted on staying here!

"I've been here countless times over the years, but you've never listened to me, and even if you're okay a few years ago! If your son doesn't have the ability, forget it, but now you're old! I've already worked hard to make a career now, how can I bear to let you live such a hard life here all the time......" He said and his voice trembled, as if he couldn't control himself!

Uncle Nine stopped what he was doing, muttered for a long time, and let out a long sigh, but he still didn't say anything!

"Dad, you said before that your craft could not be lost, but now that I have understood it clearly, your craft has found a successor, aren't you very satisfied with this Mr. Wei? Just listen to your son! ”

The middle-aged man's words made me understand that it was obvious that he was no longer paying attention to Uncle Jiu's life all the time, and even he had already known that he had found me, an apprentice, and it could be said that he had good intentions! Seeing the miserable expression of the middle-aged man who was completely different from when he first got out of the car, I couldn't help but feel a little unbearable!

I vaguely guessed that Uncle Nine insisted on staying here for most of the other reasons, definitely not because he was afraid that the craftsmanship would be lost! It's just that I don't know if Uncle Nine doesn't say it!

Seeing that Uncle Nine was still silent, the middle-aged man sighed and said in a very lonely tone: "Dad, I actually know your thoughts!" But no one blames you anymore for what happened before, your mother has passed away for so many years, why do you still have to get along with yourself! Even if you are really wrong, you have already suffered what you deserve, and it has already been evened out......"

"Don't talk about it...... Uncle Jiu's expression became gloomy with the middle-aged man's words, and he interrupted him to continue!

The middle-aged man sighed a little helplessly, and when he saw his father's displeasure, he didn't dare to say any more, and sat on a small pony and hung his head silently.

Then there was a long silence......

I watched the conversation between the father and son on the sidelines, and my thoughts were surging in my heart, and I could probably guess from the words of a middle-aged man, it should be that Uncle Nine did something wrong when he was young and hurt the people around him. That's why I express my inner repentance in this way of punishing myself!

It's just that everyone has forgiven him, but he still doesn't want to let go of himself, staying in this poor country with no end in sight for decades, and spending most of his life working day after day without asking about the world! Now that he is dying, he still haunts his past......

Seeing Uncle Nine's silence, I couldn't bear to step forward and sit next to Uncle Nine, thought for a moment and persuaded: "Uncle Nine! It's been nearly a year since I came to you, and you haven't told me anything about you, I'm just a person! I wanted me to take care of your old age and send you off for the rest of your life! Now I know that you still have relatives, your son is right, if you have no relatives for half your life, it's just that! You are accustomed to hardship, and naturally disdain any comfortable life. But you still have loved ones, and you should think about them even more! If you insist on dying alone, you may think it's nothing, but it may be a regret for your loved ones that will not be let go of for a lifetime! Isn't this yet another sin for you? ”

Uncle Nine slowly turned his head to look at me, his sunken eye sockets were full of traces of time, his jaw trembled slightly, as if he wanted to say something, but he didn't say it after all.

The middle-aged man also looked at his old father a little nervously when he heard my words, and his face showed a look of hope.

Uncle Nine stared at me for a moment, then fell silent again, and then he slowly stood up and walked towards the stove with his body bent! Looking at his back, at this moment I actually felt that he was so old, it seemed that in just this moment, he had changed from a spirited old man to a lamp that was about to run out of oil.

He went to the hearth, picked up a silver ingot, and put it on the iron case, then took the hammer and began to strike.

The middle-aged man and I glanced at each other, and neither of us understood what Uncle Nine was thinking, but neither of us interrupted him.

Uncle Nine wheeled the hammer again and again, hitting the silver ingot with a crisp sound, as if to comfort him for half his life, and as if he was saying his final goodbye to this place where he had stayed for half his life.

Uncle Nine was silent and busy for more than two hours, and I wanted to go up to help him, but he silently refused. His son was beside him and urged him to rest, but he didn't even look at him......

Two hours later, Uncle Nine finally finished his last work, which was a pair of silver rings and a pair of silver bracelets, as well as a pair of silver earrings and a silver collar.

After he carved the last knife, he put down the knife and carefully polished it again, down to every edge and corner of every pattern. I have never seen Uncle Nine create any ornaments so carefully.

It wasn't until he thought it was perfect enough and there was nothing left to modify and ponder that he wrapped a few ornaments in yellow thickness.

He was very tired from the long hours of work, and he walked up to me with a little trembling, took my hand, and solemnly put the silver ornaments wrapped in yellow thick into my hand.

"This is the last set of items I made, it was given to Wei Lai, if she doesn't dislike it when she grows up, let her wear it when she gets married! It's not worth my thoughts! ”

Uncle Jiu's expression was solemn, as if he was explaining an extremely important matter.

I was moved and nodded my head in agreement. Nearly a year of phase

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)

This old man whose life is about to come to an end already has an inseparable affection for Wei Lai!

I immediately understood that Uncle Nine had already decided to leave.

The middle-aged man was also overjoyed when he heard Uncle Nine's words, and hurriedly came over to support Uncle Nine's arm, and said in a trembling voice: "Dad, you decided to go back with me?" ”

Uncle Nine glanced at this son, stretched out his hand to shake off his son's support, and scolded: "Lao Tzu is not old enough to this extent, I don't need your help!" ”

The middle-aged man had to let go and stand aside in resignation, but he still couldn't hide the excitement on his face.

Uncle Nine walked outside with his hands behind his back, came to the side of the car, stretched out his hand and pulled the door to enter.

The middle-aged man hurriedly stepped forward and said in surprise: "Dad! You don't clean up? ”

"Clean up the fart, really want to clean up how much can you fit in this iron shell?" As he spoke, he patted the roof cover of the Mercedes Benz a few times with his hand.

The middle-aged man looked embarrassed, but then he was overjoyed and hurriedly prepared to get into the car from the other side.

Uncle Nine was just about to get into the car, but he hesitated again and turned his head to look at the silversmith shop he had been guarding for decades, and let out a long sigh. He walked up to me again, patted me on the shoulder, stared at me for a few seconds, reached out and pulled my neck-length hair, smiled, and said, "It's time to cut it!" ”

I was slightly stunned, but I didn't expect Uncle Nine's last advice to me to let me cut my hair!

After he finished speaking, he turned around and wanted to leave!

"Uncle Nine!" I stopped him.

Uncle Nine immediately stood still and turned around!

I hurried back to the house and picked up Wei Lai, who was still sleeping on the bed, and Wei Lai was woken up by me, looking at me with ignorant eyes, as if he was a little puzzled.

Since Uncle Nine is leaving, I think it is necessary for Wei Lai to say goodbye to him.

I hugged Wei Lai to Uncle Nine, and Uncle Nine took it over. Uncle Nine held Wei Lai up in front of him and said to Wei kindly: "Wei Lai, grandpa is leaving, do you want to listen to Dad's words in the future?" Grandpa will miss Wei Lai, will Wei Lai miss Grandpa......"

Uncle Nine couldn't go on talking anymore, and Bai Huahua's beard trembled slightly. Wei Lai stared at her big watery eyes and looked at Uncle Nine without blinking, with a cute expression as if she didn't know what this old man was going to do!

Just when Uncle Nine was about to hand over Wei Lai to me, Wei Lai opened his mouth and called softly: "Master...... Father! ”

Uncle Nine was stunned for a moment, and almost in disbelief, he lifted Wei Lai in front of him again, and said excitedly: "Wei Lai, are you calling grandpa?" Grandpa didn't hear clearly, can you call again? ”

"Master...... Father! As soon as Uncle Jiu's voice fell, I didn't expect Wei Lai to really scream again, although this grandfather screamed milky, but his pronunciation was clear and his tone was clear, and even I couldn't help but be stunned.

Unexpectedly, Uncle Nine taught Wei Lai to call grandpa every day, Wei Lai never opened his mouth to call, but when Uncle Nine was about to leave, he suddenly learned to call grandpa! It can't help but make people feel sad. Although Wei Lai didn't know that his grandfather was leaving, he felt that he had learned to call grandpa, but there is a creation between heaven and earth, and some things are so incredible, and it is a kind of reluctance to think about it.

Uncle Jiu suddenly burst into tears, her wrinkled face was excited and sad, she kissed Wei Lai again and again, and pushed his face with her little hand despite Wei Lai's fear of being pierced by his full beard.

Seeing this scene, I couldn't help but feel a sour feeling in my heart......
