Chapter 367: Times Have Changed
The old man on the opposite side raised his head tremblingly, many years have passed, Qin Danping is already in his old age, with white hair and pale face, but the accumulated literary atmosphere is fresh over time. has shiny white hair, combed very carefully, without a trace of messiness, but the sparse and sparse white scalp can be faintly seen.
The weather-beaten cheeks were covered with dry orange peel wrinkles, and between the slightly opened lips and teeth, a lot of teeth had fallen out. A pair of heavy reading glasses hung low on the bridge of his nose, as if he could hardly read the words on the newspaper even if he squinted, so he had to use a magnifying glass. In lukewarm weather, he covered his legs with a heavy blanket.
At first glance, it can only be described as a drooping old man.
Hearing Du Wanling's call, the old man trembled and lifted his glasses and looked at them for a long time, as if trying to evoke the silent memory, and beckoned again and again in surprise: "Yes...... It's Wanling! Come on, come on, oops, you haven't come to see me in years. ”
Du Wanling stepped forward quickly, hunched her waist, held Qin Danping's goosebump-like hands intimately, and said with emotion: "It's been a few years, but I didn't expect you to be almost ninety years old, and your body is still so strong, my body can't compare to you." ”
Qin Danping rolled her eyelids, and said with a smile: "You, you are all so old, and you still play this kind of joke with me, I can't stand up now, where can I still be considered strong." ”
Du Wanling looked at Qin Danping's legs, and said abruptly: "Old chief, your legs ......"
Qin Danping raised her hand slightly, and said indifferently: "The root cause of the illness caused by those times will not be better." In this way, there is no need to do revolutionary work, and you can sit down and read the newspaper and recuperate with peace of mind. ”
The greetings after the reunion made both of them full of emotion, and only those who have experienced those ruthless years can deeply understand how precious the reunion is.
Some people have turned into the dust of history, and some people have gone to the opposite side of life. Hardship and hardship are like a mirror that reveals the human nature that cannot be seen through on weekdays.
Maybe who is a human and who is a ghost, only after the change of time, can you determine for sure.
sighed for a long time, looking at the muddy tears welling up in Qin Danping's eyes, looking sad and sad, Du Wanling was not good to touch those unbearable pasts, she patted the back of Qin Danping's hand, and said gently: "You have been busy all your life, and it is time to rest and enjoy your happiness." By the way, old chief, I also brought someone over today for you to see! ”
Qin Danping was stunned: "Oh, who?" ”
"Jiang Hai, come, come here!"
Du Wanling beckoned, pulled Cheng Jianghai to her side, pointed at Qin Danping and introduced, "Well, you just call Grandma Qin!" ”
Cheng Jianghai hurriedly bowed and called out politely: "Hello Grandma Qin!" ”
Qin Danping looked at the young man in front of her with her glasses, and asked hesitantly, "Wanling, who is he?" ”
Du Wanling pursed her lips, pushed Cheng Jianghai forward, and chuckled: "Hehe, take a good look, who does he look like?" ”
Qin Danping frowned, held her glasses again, carefully looked at Cheng Jianghai's unfamiliar face, and tried her best to think about it, Du Wanling on the side gently reminded in her ear: "Haven't you been thinking about him all these years?" Look at ...... again."
Suddenly, Qin Danping's lips trembled, and then her body began to tremble continuously. Her fingers trembled and poked forward, and before she could speak, tears were already pouring down uncontrollably: "This! This is...... It's home...... Jia'an's children? ”
Facing this old man who burst into tears and was on the verge of losing control, Cheng Jianghai squatted down obediently, held the other party's arms with both hands, and said softly: "Grandma Qin, my name is Cheng Jianghai, and my father is Cheng Jia'an!" ”
Some things, the more touching the scene, the more stinging people's hearts.
Qin Danping wanted to stand up several times, but she was still unable to do anything, so she could only stretch out her arms hard, hugged Cheng Jianghai's head tightly, and said silently: "Oh, my good boy, I can be regarded as seeing you, I can be regarded as seeing you." It's been so many years, how many years, this is a piece of my heart, but it's finally goodbye. Quick, come and sit down with grandma, let me have a good look! ”
Cheng Jianghai pursed his lips in a panic, his emotions were too excited, and his head was confused. He sat down nervously along the chair that Qin Danping had beaten, and looked at Du Wanling with puzzled eyes.
Du Wanling wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and explained: "Jiang Hai, Grandma Qin was your father's old chief in the regiment back then, and your parents' marriage was all solved with Grandma Qin's help, she is not only an old chief, an old leader, but also your father's eldest sister." ”
With Du Wanling's reminder, Cheng Jianghai also seemed to remember something, and hurriedly said: "I remember, my father said, back then, you sent someone to the countryside where my mother lived, and only then did you solve the marriage problem for them." ”
The scenes of that year suddenly appeared in my mind, Cheng Jia'an's woodenness, Cheng Jia'an's sincerity, Cheng Jia'an's bravery, Cheng Jia'an's persistence, every scene seems to be engraved in my mind and will never dissipate.
Qin Danping's old cheeks were filled with a warm smile: "Hehe, Wanling, you don't have to say the same thing." Jia'an, but they are all our lifesavers. ”
Du Wanling nodded earnestly: "Yes, yes!" ”
Qin Danping pursed her lips, her moist eyes were full of affection, and the memories of the past quietly crept into her heart, and her words were filled with feelings like a world away, and she said in pieces: "In those years, if it weren't for Jia'an taking risks and traveling thousands of miles to take care of me, my old life would have been lost in which ditch I would have lost my life." I wanted to see Jia'an again, but I said goodbye in such a hurry, and we never saw each other again. Work is always busy, there is no time when I can walk, and this leg is not competitive when I have time. ”
"Hey, this is a pity, and it slowly became a heart disease. Ah, by the way, are Jia'an and Xiulan all right? ”
Cheng Jianghai gritted his teeth, lowered his head sadly, and choked up: "My mother has been gone for many years. ”
The sudden silence around was a little depressing, even the heartbeat could be heard clearly, and a sad breath floated in the air, making the tip of the nose sour.
I only heard Qin Danping's mournful muttering faintly: "Gone?" Let's go? Why did you leave? Can't even see the last one? ”
Suddenly, Qin Danping turned her head abruptly and asked urgently, "What's that...... What about Jia'an? ”
Cheng Jianghai bit his lip and said worriedly: "My dad, my dad is not in good health, he has amnesia, and he can't remember many things." ”
After a long silence, old tears were like pearls with broken threads, quietly sliding down the wrinkled cheeks, and for a while everyone looked at the old man who was immersed in pain, standing depressed and silent.
"Old, old!"
For a long time, the sad Qin Danping sighed faintly: "Many people will never see each other again, our era has passed......"
Du Wanling, who was touched, responded sadly: "Yes, our era has passed, and it is a new millennium. ”
