"When I left home and went back, my hometown voice has not changed, and my sideburns have declined. When the children don't know each other, they smile and ask where the guests are from. ”

If you want to ask Lu Xuan what kind of mood he is in at this time, only this poem can prove it.

When Jiangtou Village and him Lu Xuan left, there were some changes, but the changes were not big.

After all, in such a year, a remote mountain village like Jiangtou Village, as long as it is a peaceful season, even if decades have passed, it is really difficult to change much.

Entering the village, the path is still the same as before. Due to the heavy snowfall, the grass and trees on both sides have dried up, and there is a little less vitality.

The head of the village saw two seven or eight-year-old dolls building snowmen, a man and a woman, and naturally they didn't recognize him. Unlike those naughty children in Xunyang Town, the two dolls in Jiangtou Village were a little afraid of life, and they were a little curious about him, so they only stared at him in place, and they didn't dare to approach.

Seeing that Lu Xuan turned his head and smiled, he was frightened, and the snowman couldn't care about it, so he ran back to the village in a hurry with a 'wow' sound.

"Haha!"

Lu Xuan thought it was interesting, and he didn't know if he was old, and when he saw these seedling-like children, he always wanted to tease them.

Compared with the mountain village, the fishermen's houses are relatively close, and they are not far from the river, which is convenient for fishing, and the village is naturally not big when they gather together.

The two little dolls screamed, or attracted the attention of some adults, at this time just after the New Year, the ice and snow had just begun to melt, and many jobs could not be done, and most of the women and children stayed at home.

At this time, the New Year's greetings have been worshipped, and there are few outsiders in the village to visit, and some adults can listen to the movement, and it is inevitable to come out to see.

I saw Lu Xuan, the old Taoist priest at the head of the village, who didn't recognize him and was a little curious.

Although he has been away from home for many years, Lu Xuan still remembers where his house is and is ready to go back to see it.

When I saw the villagers on the way, they all nodded and smiled.

The villagers were simple and respected him.

Lu Xuan's house was at the end of the village, and he had already walked there in a few steps. The location has not changed, the house has obviously been repaired, and it has become a small courtyard surrounded by a fence.

When he came back to his senses, his nose was slightly sour, and his eyes were red.

After a while, I saw a middle-aged woman walking out of the house, the woman was dressed as an ordinary peasant woman, with a towel wrapped around her head, her face was quite beautiful, her shoulders were wide and her hips were large, and she was a good child.

The woman took a wooden basin, splashed some hot water, raised her eyes and saw Lu Xuan, who was standing motionless outside the courtyard, she had some doubts in her heart, and couldn't help asking: "The old Taoist is a fate? This is cold outside, and there is some rice soup at home, if the Taoist chief doesn't mind, you might as well go inside to warm up your body." ”

The tone is gentle and kind.

Lu Xuan came back to his senses, he didn't recognize the woman in front of him, he was worried that his family was no longer there, and his heart, which had not fluctuated for a long time, became a little nervous, so he asked, "Dare to ask if this is Lu Ying's family?"

When the woman heard this, she was surprised and a little surprised, but she still nodded: "That's the woman's mother-in-law, the mother-in-law is at home, but the old Taoist is familiar with my mother-in-law?"

Hearing that his sister was still alive, Lu Xuan was relieved.

Turning to think of what the woman in front of me said, she was actually her sister's daughter-in-law, and I felt a little emotional. Then he said seriously:

"My name is Lu Xuan, and Lu Ying is my sister. ”

"Huh!?"

Hearing Lu Xuan's words, the woman first didn't react, and then looked at Lu Xuan's serious appearance, and was a little overwhelmed, and when she let go of her hand, she actually dropped the basin.

Xu didn't expect this kind of scene, the country woman, and she didn't have an opinion, so she didn't know what to do for a while. After hesitating for a while, he turned around and ran into the house, and after a while, he helped an old woman out of it.

The old woman looked very old, and with the support of her daughter-in-law, she was still a little fortunate in her actions, and she looked even older than Lu Xuan. The figure is a little rickety, wearing a cotton jacket, which looks a little bloated. However, from the face full of vicissitudes, I can still vaguely see the outline of my sister Lu Ying.

The old woman was followed by a small doll, and if Lu Xuan looked closely, he could see that the little doll was the girl among the two children he had seen in the village.

It's just that when he saw the old woman's face clearly, Lu Xuan's attention was no longer anywhere else.

"Brother?"

It was cold outside, and the old woman had just come out of the warm room, obviously still a little uncomfortable, wrapped in silver, and her dim eyes were a little unclear. Following the direction of his daughter-in-law's finger, he looked at Lu Xuan for a while before he called out with some uncertainty.

"Is it Ying'er?

Lu Xuan looked at this old body, his vision was blurred for a while, and his voice was a little hoarse.

At first glance, Lu Xuan recognized that the old woman was his sister Lu Ying, although her appearance had changed greatly, and her voice was no longer as crisp and sweet as it had been, he still recognized it at the first time.

"Brother?!"

When the old woman heard this, her eyes gradually widened, her eyes were also red, and she staggered a few steps, as if she was about to rush out, but she almost fell to the ground.

Seeing that his sister was about to fall, Lu Xuan was startled, and subconsciously jumped into the yard.

Fortunately, with her daughter-in-law to support, her sister did not fall.

Lu Xuan breathed a sigh of relief, and held Lu Ying, who was already an old woman, and the brother and sister said goodbye, looked at each other fixedly, and were silent for a long time.

After a while, Lu Yingcai raised his hand tremblingly, stroked Lu Xuan's cheek, and said in a trembling voice: "Brother, you are old......

There are a thousand words in my heart, but they are all turned into this one.

......

After entering the house, Lu Ying's mood calmed down a lot, and with the support of Lu Xuan and his daughter-in-law, he sat on a low stool next to the stove.

When Lu Xuan sat down, Lu Ying looked at Lu Xuan carefully with the help of the charcoal fire, holding his hand, and was reluctant to let go, she could see a little joy on the face of the ravine, and she was indeed the joy of the reunion of her brother and sister in her heart now.

After a while, I finally didn't forget to introduce my family to Lu Xuan.

"Brother, this is Xiaocui, Yun'er's daughter-in-law. ”

"Xiaocui, this is Yun'er's uncle. ”

"My nephew and daughter-in-law have seen my uncle. ”

"Good!"

Lu Xuan patted his sister's rough old hand full of calluses and cracks, and was reluctant to let go, only nodding and smiling at his niece and daughter-in-law named Xiaocui.

"This is my baby granddaughter Xiao Lian'er, Lian'er is about to call her uncle and grandfather. ”

The little girl's face was flushed, the weather was cold, and two snot marks could be seen. At this time, he was shrinking behind his grandmother, only half of his head leaked, and looked at Lu Xuan carefully.

Seeing Lu Xuan's view, he sniffed, hurriedly retracted his head, and didn't dare to speak. But he was frightened by Lu Xuan at the entrance of the village, and he was still a little scared at this time.

"This kid!"

Lu Ying frowned.

"Okay, I saw the child in the village just now, and I think it's a little scared, so it's okay. ”

Although it was a little regrettable that he couldn't hear his grandniece call his uncle and grandfather, Lu Xuan was still quite satisfied, thinking about it, he hadn't been so happy from the bottom of his heart for a long time.

"Brother, where have you been all these years? I haven't seen you come back for so long?"

Lu Ying shook her head, feeling the warmth of Lu Xuan's palm, and couldn't help asking.

As soon as he heard this, Lu Xuan felt a little guilty.

And he could see that his sister didn't complain about him for all these years, only worried.

Xiao Cui saw the two old men talking, so she took Xiao Lian'er to the side house.

Lu Xuan shook his head, his experience is more complicated, it is difficult to explain, compared to his own experience, Lu Xuan is more interested in the life of his sister's family.

"I won't talk about mine, after I left, I encountered a lot of things, and I wanted to come back to take a look, but there were no good opportunities, don't talk about this, Ying'er, have you been doing well all these years? What about Zhou Qing's guy? Why don't you see him? and Xiao Yun'er. ”

My sister's son is called Zhou Yun, and Lu Xuan saw it when he was born, but then he left Xunyang Town and never saw it again.

"Yun'er went hunting in the mountains, and it's not easy to get out of the boat this winter, as for Brother Qing......"

Speaking of this, my sister's expression was a little low because of Lu Xuan's return.

When Lu Xuan saw his sister's expression, his heart sank.

The corners of Lu Ying's eyes were a little red, and he smiled reluctantly: "Brother Qing has been gone for many years, and one year there was no food at home, and Brother Qing went hunting in the mountains with people, and he didn't come back......"

Lu Xuan's nose was sour, his mouth was open, but he didn't know what to say for a while, speaking of his brother-in-law Zhou Qing, he also had indirect responsibility for such a thing, you must know that Zhou Qing's family background was quite good back then, if it weren't for him, he wouldn't have returned to Jiangtou Village with his family, and he wouldn't have ......

Lu Xuan is very remorseful now.

even hated himself for being so careless about his family back then.

It looked quite beautiful back then, but now it seems like a joke.

"Brother can't stand your ......"

Lu Xuan clenched his sister's hand, he has worked all year round, and he is old again, his sister's hand is even rougher than that of him, who is an elder brother, and even looks like Lu Ying is older than him.

Thinking of it, he still felt that it was not easy for him all these years, and now it seems a little ridiculous, he is not not easy, but he is a little fascinated by the truth.

"There's nothing to live with, if it weren't for you, I wouldn't have recognized Brother Qing. Brother Qing is a good person, he has taken good care of me all these years, and he is reluctant to let me freeze and starve. I have had a good life over the years, although Brother Qing is no longer there, but Yun'er and Xiaocui also respect me very much. Originally, I had no other hope in my life, so I wanted to see you again, and God has fulfilled my wish now, and he has treated me well. ”

In front of his sister Lu Ying, Lu Xuan seems to have become an unsuccessful kid, and he is not as good as his younger sister who can see through it.

Listening to these words, my heart became more and more guilty.

"Squeak ......"

Just when Lu Xuan wanted to say something more, a movement suddenly came from outside the courtyard.

"It should be Yun'er who is back! Brother, you haven't seen him now, he is strong now, Brother Qing handed over to him the martial arts you left back then, and he can talk in the village, just like you did back then." ”

Speaking of her son, Lu Ying was very happy.

"Sister-in-law!

However, a voice came from outside, which made Lu Ying and Lu Xuan's faces change.

As soon as the door opened, a sturdy figure entered in a panic.
