"Just bothering you, don't tell my grandma, okay?" The little girl continued.

"Grandma is old and in poor health, so I don't know what will happen if I tell her."

When Lu Yongchang heard this, his heart became more and more sour, and he looked around the room again.

"Why do you see you and your grandmother? What about your mom and dad? ”

In fact, Lu Yongchang didn't mean anything when he asked this, he just wanted to ease the oppressive atmosphere, and he didn't mean anything else.

But the girl replied, "My father and mother are gone." ”

"Gone?" Lu Yongjia's heart was squeezed again.

"Yes, two years ago, my parents went to the city to sell beans, and they were hit by a car and died.

Grandma was also blind from crying because she was too sad, and my brother took the initiative to join the army for the sake of this family, in order to get more money to come back.

Who knows, this will never come back. ”

The little girl has probably already passed that heart-rending time, so her expression is always calm when she says these words, and only occasionally tears away the smile to ease the atmosphere, which looks inexplicably a little sad.

The hemp rope is broken at the finest part......

Lu Yongchang thought silently in his heart.

"Then it's you and your grandmother in the house, how do you live?" He asked.

"The troops send a lot of things every once in a while, and my grandmother and I don't have a problem making ends meet."

"It's ......"

The little girl paused as she spoke, and then said, "Grandma always asks me about my brother, and I don't know how to answer her. ”

"Brother Lu Yongchang, can you please help me with something?"

"You say."

"Can you tell grandma more about my brother's situation in the army, so that grandma can rest assured, I'm afraid that I won't be able to hide it for so long."

"Okay." Lu Yongchang nodded.

At this time, the grandmother groped her way out of the bedroom with a bamboo pole.

"Come on, little comrade, eat candy."

The old woman grabbed a handful of sorghum and threw it on the table.

The outer packaging of the sorghum syrup has faded a little, and some of the sugar inside has melted and flowed to the outside, sticky, and it looks like it has been left for a long time.

But the old grandmother still regarded it as a good thing, and called Lu Yongchang and them vigorously: "Eat, you eat more, don't be polite to me." ”

"This candy, my grandson bought it for me a few years ago, haha, I said that my old woman is one, where can I eat this candy?

My grandson said, 'Milk, you can eat it, this sugar is sweet.' ’

When I eat it, it's really sweet, and when I'm fine, put one in my mouth, and it can be sweet for a long time.

Haha......"

The old lady talked about the past, and when she smiled, her eyes narrowed into slits, and her wrinkled mouth could no longer see her teeth.

She smiled and laughed, suddenly stopped, and sighed again.

"Alas, do the math, my grandson hasn't been home for three years."

"He said he'd buy me candy next time he came back, and hey, what kind of candy do I want?" Others come back to good ratchasima. ”

"Oh, yes."

The old lady remembered and folded the bamboo pole back again.

In the middle of the night, when she came back, she had a small cloth pocket in her hand.

"Yi Zhi's favorite sweet potatoes dried by his grandmother are the most, I specially took advantage of the sun to fill a big bag, please help me bring it to him."

Lu Yongchang took the bag, looked down at the printed bag, and the mouth was tightly tied, and his heart was inexplicably pantothenic, and his throat choked.

"Good......" he nodded, his voice trembling.

"The squad leader is still talking to us about this dried sweet potato, and this time, he must be very happy."

"Really?

And he told you about me? When the old lady heard this, she laughed again.

"Say, always say."

"What are you talking about?"

"The squad leader said that his grandmother is the kindest old lady in the world, and he wants to come home every day, but no, he wants to earn more money, and after earning the money, he will come back to build a big house for his grandmother."

"Haha, haha......"

The old lady was in a much better mood when she heard about her grandson.

"What a big house to build, I'm old, what big house do I want to live in?"

"If you want to live, of course you have to live, the squad leader has the ability, the leaders above appreciate him, and he will be promoted to be the platoon commander in the future, and when the time comes, you will earn money, and take your grandmother to the city to enjoy Qingfu."

"Haha, what Qingfu? actually said something that was not serious.

He's not too young, it's a serious matter to find a partner and start a family as soon as possible. ”

"Huh!"

As the old lady spoke, she approached Lu Yongchang and asked mysteriously, "Tell me, in the army, is there a good girl in Yi Zhi?" ”

"Yes, why not?"

"The squad leader is well-looking and capable, and many female soldiers in the army want to deal with other people, especially those literary and artistic soldiers, who are gentle and beautiful, and can sing and dance......"

"Ouch, you little comrade, you see that grandma is old and confused, and she actually picks nice words to bluff me, don't you?"

Grandma said so, but she was still happy to hear this.

The old and the young chatted for a long time.

Lu Yongchang's brain is already active, and his speech is good, which makes the old lady laugh again and again.

The old lady couldn't see it, and his scarlet eyes were filled with tears.

The two brothers stayed in the Huang family for a long time, and they stayed until the old lady was not in good spirits and became sleepy before leaving.

The old lady kept two people for dinner again and again, but Lu Yongchang refused.

The little girl sent them out.

"Thank you, Brother Lu." When they were about to part, the little girl said to Lu Yongchang.

"Thank you for talking so much with grandma, I can see that grandma hasn't been so happy for a long time."

The little girl raised her head and looked at Lu Yongchang, the wind of early autumn dusk was cool, blowing her fluffy hair, and her eyes were full of sunset, getting brighter and brighter.

"It's all what I'm supposed to do." Lu Yongchang Road.

"I'm going to a rehabilitation center in another place, and I'll come to see my grandmother when I come back."

"By the way, what's your name?" Lu Yongchang suddenly remembered that after staying for so long, he didn't even know people's names.

"My name is Huang Xiao'e."

"Huang Xiao'e, I remember you.

If you have any difficulties in the future, you come to the Lu family in Daping Village to find me, as long as I can do it, I will never say anything about it. ”

Lu Yongchang solemnly made a promise, and then left with Lu Yong's family.

On the way back, the two brothers didn't say a word.

After a long time, Lu Yongjia listened to Lu Yongchang's somewhat muffled voice.

"The only brother is gone, she must be more uncomfortable than anyone else in her heart, but she still has to hide it from the old man, and she doesn't even dare to cry out loud, you say, such a young girl, how did she survive?"

Lu Yongjia's heart was also heavy.

"yes."

He sighed heavily: "This little girl, it's not simple. ”

"In the future, let's take a look more, it's you who owe her, it's our family who owes her."

"I know."

The two of them came home with such a dull mood, but as soon as they arrived at the door, they saw a noisy and noisy front door, and the inner and outer three floors were full of people.
