Chapter 9 Old Man

The meal was spent in such a warm scene, and in the end, Zhang Liang successfully got drunk, lay on the table, and fell asleep.

Wen Su looked at him angrily, "Look at your teacher, it's like this for someone, it's the same every time." Don't learn from him, Lulu, take care of him in the future! ”

Sun Lulu covered her mouth and snickered: "Don't worry, Master, he won't." ”

helped Zhang Liang to the bed, and the two took their leave. Walking on the path of the community, he still asked the question in his heart: "Lulu, let's go see my parents, shall we?" ”

Sun Lulu said with a pale face: "That...... My mom and dad are so good, next time! ”

Sensing that the tone was wrong, he stopped, stared into her eyes and asked, "What's wrong?" What are you hiding from me? ”

"I ...... I haven't been back for a few years. I don't know how they're doing...... I don't know how to face them now, you know what I mean? ”

Ding Haotian touched her hair and said guiltily, "I'm sorry to let you ...... Let's go, let's go back, even if my parents kill me, we will see them! ”

This must have had a great impact on them, the wedding date was scheduled, relatives and friends were invited, and the groom died.

"Haotian, I'm afraid...... I don't know how to face them. Sun Lulu looked at him pitifully.

"It's okay, didn't I come back? When the time comes, explain to them well, besides, this time we have to leave here together, and there are some knots that need to be untied. He reassured.

Without saying anything more, the two entered a shopping mall outside the community and bought a lot of gifts, of course, it was Sun Lulu who paid for it. I took a taxi and drove towards her house.

Walking through the city with high-rise buildings, and then passing through a large industrial area, there are fewer cars and the road is narrower. After an hour-long drive, I finally arrived in front of an old two-story western-style building.

When I got out of the car, I heard a puzzled voice: "Xiaotian? ”

Ding Haotian trembled, turned his head stiffly, and showed a smile that was more ugly than crying: "Dad......"

Behind him is a rickety old man, and the years have left heavy marks on him. Immediately after, a figure ran over: "Dad...... My daughter is not filial, and I came back to see you. ”

"It's good to be back, it's good to be back!" The old man's cloudy eyes were full of tears.

Ding Haotian took out the gift from the car, smiled reluctantly and said, "Dad, this is not the place to talk, let's go into the house!" ”

As soon as he entered the house, he knelt down in front of the old man: "Dad, I'm sorry, over the years, I have wronged you and your mother." ”

Sun Lulu also knelt down: "Dad, it's me who is not good, I haven't come back in the past few years." ”

"Get up, get up! Mom and Dad have never blamed you, as long as you are good, it is better than anything else. The old man pulled them up with relief.

As soon as Ding Haotian looked up, he happened to see a black and white photo in the center of the house, and he pointed to the photo incredulously: "Mom......"

Sun Lulu looked in the direction of her finger, her brain turned black and she fainted.

"Lulu, wake up, Lulu ......" Ding Haotian was frightened, he didn't expect that a person who was fine a few years ago was now ......

After a while, Sun Lulu woke up slowly, and as soon as she woke up, she cried: "Mom......"

Ding Haotian didn't know what to do, so he could only hug her tightly. The old man took out his dry cigarette and sat at the door to swallow the clouds and mist, without saying a word.

It was only when her mood stabilized a little that the old man spoke about her experience in the past few years.

It was originally a great joy, but because of his "death", the Sun family became the laughing stock of the village, and even relatives and friends made fun of them.

They didn't go to the city to look for Sun Lulu, because they knew that she must be sad in their hearts. But my grandmother fell ill because she was angry and angry.

Originally, the old man wanted to go to Sun Lulu to find a way together, but the grandmother did not agree, saying that she was already like this and could not add any more burden to her daughter. The following year, she died of a serious illness.

A simple funeral was held, and the living continued to live. The old man has been farming for a living all these years, and he is only barely able to maintain food and clothing.

Ding Haotian doesn't know what to say, his disappearance has shattered a family, even if he dies 10,000 times, he can't make up for it.

If he could, he would rather not have these things, even if it was to face the end together, as long as the family was together, he would admit it.

Sun Lulu cried and asked, "Where is my mother buried, let's go and see!" ”

"Okay, you come with me." The old man put away his cigarette pouch, stood up and walked outside.

Ding Haotian helped her, followed behind, and apologized in a low voice: "Lulu, I'm sorry, I hurt you......"

"You don't have to say that, Mom has a spirit in the sky, and she must be very happy to see us together!" She smiled reluctantly, which would be messed up.

It's close to the industrial park, and many people in the village have moved away because of the land acquisition, and now only a few families are struggling to support themselves.

They walked down the village road, and the silhouette of the defeat proved that it had once prospered. The old man did not walk quickly, and every step was a little shaky. Looking at the old man in front of him, he had a feeling that if he came back late, he probably wouldn't be able to see him.

Walking to the village, there is a large cemetery in the back hill. The old man did not stop, and walked to the side, and a lonely grave appeared in front of several people.

"Wife, Lulu and Xiaotian have come to see you!" The old man looked at the grave in front of him tenderly and muttered.

There is no tombstone, there is no record, it is an ordinary tomb that can no longer be ordinary, but in this vicinity, there are no weeds or thorns, and they are all cleaned by the old man.

"Mom, my daughter is not filial and can't be by your side. I don't even know if you're sick, my daughter should die......" Sun Lulu knelt in front of the grave, crying bitterly.

"Mom...... I'm sorry, it's all because of me...... It's all my fault! I want to hear your voice scolding me...... "The two of them were talking to me in front of the grave, and the old man squatted on the side, not knowing what he was thinking.

The sky gradually darkened, the cold wind was cold, the old man stood up, and said to the two, "Okay, it's not early, it's cold, let's go back!" ”

Back home, Sun Lulu began to clean up the house. Ding Haotian accompanied the old man to talk about his experience in the past few years. But in the end, when he wanted to pick up the old man, he was refused.

"Child, your mother and I have the same idea, we have lived here all our lives, and we have long been inseparable. Therefore, we are relieved that you are doing well. As for picking me up, forget it! I don't have a few days to live, and when I'm gone, I'll be buried with your mother, she's so lonely, I have to be with her. The old man's tone was calm, and he had already looked down on life and death.

Luckily, when they came, they bought a lot of food. There was hardly anything to eat at home, and the food was even more pitiful.

In the evening, a family of three had a reunion dinner in the dim light. After the meal, the old man took out a box and handed it to Sun Lulu: "Child, Dad has no ability." This is my savings over the years, and it's all over the years. ”
