When I came out of the fifth construction site, it was already 4 o'clock in the afternoon, and the last bus back was 5 o'clock, and I couldn't catch the bus back if I didn't go back to the bus station.

The two walked to the bus stop according to their memories, and when they saw the bus stop from a distance, Xu Heping suddenly 'huh' and pulled Xu An.

"I think the man in the striped shirt looks a little familiar, and it feels like it's your little uncle."

Xu An looked in the direction of Xu Heping's finger, and sure enough, he saw a man in a brown striped shirt, thin and tall like a bamboo pole, and his normal clothes were loose and baggy like a sack. Coupled with the appearance of the sharp-beaked monkey's gills, it can be determined at a glance that this person is his little uncle.

I remember that my little uncle has been working in the garment factory, and today is a working day or work time, and it is more than half an hour away from the garment factory, how could he be here.

The little uncle stood on the bus stop and looked at the two pieces of paper in his hand with a complicated expression. After some struggle, he tore off one of the corners, threw the remaining part of the rubbing bar into the trash, and then boarded the bus and disappeared from Xu An's sight.

Xu An took two quick steps forward and picked up the ball of paper that his uncle threw into the trash can and spread it out.

"People are throwing them in the trash, why are you still picking them up, what is written on it? Haishi Second People's Hospital, your brother-in-law is not feeling well? ”

Xu Heping was very disgusted by Xu An's behavior, but he couldn't suppress his curiosity, and turned his head over to check the content on the paper.

The sperm test report ,......, sperm count was 0, and the diagnosis of azoospermia was made.

Xu An crumpled the paper into a ball and put it in his pocket, the speed was so fast that Xu Heping couldn't react, and he didn't see anything else except the name of the hospital.

At this moment, Xu An's heart is bursting, and only if the sperm content in the semen is zero will he be diagnosed with azoospermia. There is no sperm, which means that the little uncle will not be able to have a child of his own blood in this life.

In that last life, who was the child that my sister-in-law was pregnant with? My uncle's uncle knew about his condition after an examination, did he know that the child born to his sister-in-law was not his own?

For a while, the amount of information was too large, and Xu An's brain couldn't handle it.

After settling his mind, Xu An began to think about other possibilities.

The name on this list was torn off, and it was not certain that the examination report must have belonged to my uncle.

Maybe it's a checklist from my uncle's friend or colleague, and I just asked him to pick up the report.

Maybe this is a report of abandonment by someone else, and it happened to be picked up by my uncle.

Maybe......

In his heart, he found countless reasons for his uncle's behavior, but Xu An himself couldn't believe these reasons.

Because when the little cousin was three years old, when the little uncle was eating and getting drunk with others, he mentioned that his cousin was not his biological son, but he didn't care.

There were people from the village who were present to eat, and this rumor spread in the village, and Xu An also heard about it.

But my uncle and sister-in-law get along normally on weekdays, and there is nothing wrong with it. In addition, Xu Kang and Xu Le were still at their house, and everyone thought that the little uncle was drunk and confused, and said that Xu Kang was a cousin, so they didn't take this matter to heart.

But now that he sees this report and thinks back to this rumor, it is hard for Xu An not to believe that this rumor is true.

Eating such a fresh and hot melon for the first time in two lives, Xu An was in a trance all the way, which was more unacceptable than his rebirth back fifteen years ago.

Shortly after Xu An and the two left in the car, the little uncle reappeared at the bus stop.

Pinching his nose and rummaging in the trash can, he muttered over and over again: "It's only been a few minutes since I left, why can't I find it, maybe it was picked up by the rags." Picking up such a small piece of paper, it's really crazy. ”

When I got home, it was already past five o'clock in the afternoon.

What is different from usual is that today Xu An has walked into the courtyard, Xu Kang and Xu Le just turned their heads to look at him and continued to play with the sand, the aggrieved look on their faces is impossible to ignore.

Xu An squatted next to the two, and the two of them turned their bodies in unison, facing him with the back of their heads.

"What's wrong with Kang Kang Lele, don't you want to see your brother?"

In response to Xu An, there were two neat 'hum' sounds.

"Let me guess why you don't want to see your brother, is it because your brother didn't take you with him?"

The two didn't talk, it seems that this is not the reason.

"Is it that my brother came back too late, and they are hungry, so I don't want to take care of my brother."

Still no answer.

Xu An recalled that although Xu Kang and Xu Le were children, they rarely lost their temper for no reason. The two should have encountered something and needed to find their brother for help or comfort, but they were not there, so they sulked.

Then I thought of the scene yesterday afternoon, when the two woke up from a nightmare, crying so much that they wanted to hug themselves.

Could it be another nightmare?

Xu An stretched out his hand and hugged the two little people in front of him into his arms, and asked in a low voice, "Are you having nightmares again?" ”

Hearing this, mist appeared in the eyes of the two people who were full of grievances, hugged Xu An's arm tightly, and nodded aggrievedly.

"Did you dream of the old witch again?"

The two nodded in unison again, correcting Xu An's words.

"It's not just the old demon woman, but I also dreamed of the old demon king. The old demon king is so tall and tall, like a bamboo pole. He still had a bamboo pole in his hand, and he stood with the old witch, and whenever we were hungry and wanted to eat, he would beat us with the bamboo pole.

In the dream, there was nothing to eat, so hungry and hungry, and then I woke up hungry. ”

Come on, the mystery has been revealed, these two stinky children are hungry.

"Okay, brother, I'm going to cook, you can eat more later, and eat the part you didn't eat in your dream."

When I came to the kitchen, I remembered that I had eaten all the meat at noon, and the only thing that could be regarded as meat at home was eggs.

Then have a steamed egg, a scrambled egg with green pepper and a stir-fried cabbage. People in Haishi generally don't eat spicy, even if it is a green pepper, it is not spicy, but a little sweet green pepper, and it is no problem for children to eat it.

Xu Anben was also worried that the two of them would cry because there was no meat in the meal, but they didn't think that the two of them ate two big bowls of rice with steamed eggs, and they were very well-behaved.

Xu An reacted at this time, and after he graduated and worked, he made money, and his family lived a life of meat. The two were hungry and scared at their sister-in-law's house, so they liked to eat meat and became meatless.

Now neither of them has been hungry, and Xu An's food is better than Grandma Xu's.

If Grandma Xu's food is 60 points pass, then Xu An's food can be scored 88 points, how can the two of them be picky.

After eating, I cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks, first fetched well water for my grandmother to wipe her body, then bathed the two small ones, and finally took a bath and washed my clothes.

It was already eight o'clock in the evening when all the work was done.

Uncle Dong Liang should have come back from the construction site, Xu An closed the courtyard door and walked towards the back of the house.

Xujia Village as a whole is rectangular in shape, and the houses are divided into four rows, each row has six to seven houses, a total of 26 houses.

Blue brick houses like Xu An's house were basically built by his grandfather's generation, and there are seven in the village, which are basically inhabited by people from his grandmother's generation.

Xu's father's generation has basically started a family, and he chose another piece of land in the village to build a new house. The new house is very recognizable, and the exterior wall is covered with three or four centimeter square tiles.

In Xu An's generation, some of those who were born earlier are already twenty-eight or nineteen, and they have also started a family. The exterior walls of the newly built houses of this generation are simply painted with waterproof paint, and the main focus is on the decoration and furnishings of the house.

The third grandmother gave birth to two daughters and four sons, and Uncle Dongliang is her youngest son, who is twenty-five this year and is not yet married. Two daughters have been married, one of the other three sons has settled in the city, and the remaining two are married and have built another house in the village, and Uncle Dongliang now lives in the old house with the third grandmother.

As soon as I got closer, I heard the voice of the third grandmother scolding Uncle Dongliang, and stopped to listen to a few words, it was the third grandmother who was scolding Uncle Dongliang, who didn't go home until seven or eight o'clock every day to eat, and sooner or later he would spoil his stomach.

"Mom, you think I don't want to come back after eating at the construction site. Today's meal time passed to line up to eat, and before the meal arrived, someone over there ate half a steel wool ball from the dish, and there was black dirt left by wiping the pot on the steel wool ball.

In the past, there was sand and insects, even if it was, this steel wool plastic bag really couldn't bear it. I'm afraid that after eating this meal, I will have to send it to the hospital, and the money I earn will not be enough to get the injection. ”

"This person is too foolish, the steel wool ball can be thrown into the dish to cook."

Xu An knocked on the door of the third grandmother's courtyard and shouted inside: "Third grandmother, Uncle Dongliang, I am Anzi, I want to ask Uncle Dongliang about something." ”

The door squeaked open, and it was Uncle Dong Liang who opened the door, holding a large bowl in his right hand, and picking up rice in his mouth while opening the door.

"Anzi, what's the matter with me, if you're not in a hurry, I'll talk about it after I finish eating."

Before he finished speaking, the big bowl in his hand was snatched away by the third grandmother.

"Anzi must be in a hurry to find you, when can't you eat, hurry up."

Xu An cried and laughed and grabbed the third grandmother: "Third grandmother, it's not a big deal, it's just that there is something I want to ask Uncle Dongliang, don't delay things." ”

Hearing Xu An's words, the third grandmother stopped her movements and stuffed the bowl back into Uncle Dongliang's hand.

In this regard, Xu An said that it was false not to be moved.

Since the death of her parents four years ago, Grandma Xu has been able to raise a one-and-a-half-year-old child and two babies who are waiting to be fed, which is inseparable from the help of the villagers.

A few days ago, Grandma Xu broke her leg, and Uncle Dong Liang helped send her to the hospital.

Uncle Dongliang took out a chair from the room and handed it to Xu An, continued to bury his head in the rice, stuffed his mouth bulging, and then looked up and asked, "Anzi, what's wrong." ”

"I just wanted to ask you about the construction site."

Uncle Liang's pupils dilated, and he swallowed the food in his mouth that had not been fully chewed by stalking his neck, and his voice trembled a little: "Anzi, you don't want to go to work on the construction site like me, do you?" You have to listen to your uncle, you have to go to college, study hard, work hard in the field, and you can't make a lot of money.

Don't look at the high wages on the construction site, but the wages are paid every six months and a year. When you meet a project boss who has no conscience, you have to pay for nothing. ”

Xu An stretched out his hand to wipe away a few grains of rice that Uncle Dongliang sprayed on his face, and said with a smile: "Uncle Dongliang, don't get excited, I don't want to go to the construction site to work for the rest of my life." It's not the summer vacation after the college entrance examination, and I don't have anything to do at home, so I just want to find something to do and earn some money. ”

"Oh, do you want to do odd jobs, odd jobs are okay. But with your thin body, the work on the construction site is not suitable for you. Uncle Dongliang glanced Xu An up and down, and expressed his disgust for Xu An's thin body.

"No, Uncle Dongliang, I went to a few construction sites in the city with Heping in the afternoon, and found that most of the food on the construction site was not very delicious and there was not much oil and water, so I thought about making some boxed lunches to sell on the construction site, do you think this is okay?"

Uncle Dongliang subconsciously wanted to say that Xu An was messing around, but before he could say anything, he didn't know what he was thinking, his eyes lit up, and he stared at Xu An: "Tell me in detail." ”
