Chapter 408 Arriving Home
Wang Changhu's home is in a village in Wenshan County. There are mountains, waters and green plants, and the scenery is pleasant, beautiful and delicious.
The village is not big, with only dozens of households. The houses are not built in rows, but randomly found on flat land. The well-proportioned houses look quite different.
In recent years, this ordinary small mountain village has often had happy events.
Four years ago, two college students came out of the village at once, Wang Changhu, who had no father or mother, and Xu Xiaojuan, a village flower.
It caused a sensation in the whole village.
Everyone in the village knows their affairs. The two families are very close, and they have been close since they were young. The Xu family is thin, and Xu Xiaojuan is the only daughter in the family.
I don't know who is chasing who. Everyone in the village has known since junior high school that these two are on good terms.
Now both of them have been admitted to university, that is to say, they have finally walked out of this poor mountain valley, which is the best of the best.
Whenever this matter is discussed, the villagers are all envious and jealous.
Why are other people's children so promising?
But what is more jealous is still behind. This summer, Wang Changhu's younger brother Wang Changming was also admitted to university. It is a miracle that there are two college students in one family.
After getting off the train and taking the shuttle bus, after getting off the shuttle bus and walking the mountain road, Wang Changhu finally rushed back home before noon.
On Xiaochang’s day, Xiaonian’s education was on holiday, and Wang Changhu finally caught up with Xiaonian’s lunch after an all-night bus ride.
There are only grandpa and younger brother in the family, and grandma still couldn't make it through in the end, and died of illness last year.
There was an old photo on the cabinet. In the photo was grandma's kind face. Wang Changhu burned a stick of incense and kowtowed three times.
Grandpa sat on the kang and smoked dry cigarettes. The old man in his seventies was blushing and energetic. He couldn't tell his actual age at all, and his body was very strong.
Wang Changhu took out a bag of shredded tobacco from his bag, and said with a smile: "Authentic green toad, one puff of smoke will cause you to stumble!"
The old man's eyes lit up immediately, he took the tobacco and looked at it carefully, then carefully put it into the pipe and lit it.
Close your eyes and take a deep breath, revealing an intoxicated look.
"Grandpa didn't love you for nothing!"
Wang Changhu smiled and said: "Smoking less, you have to pay attention to your body when you are older!"
The old man stretched out two fingers, "One cigarette, one meat, without these two things, my bones will collapse immediately!"
Wang Changhu asked with a smile, "What about the wine?"
The old man took a puff of cigarette, glanced at the black and white photo, and said slowly: "Quit!"
The old man who liked to drink so much in the past did not feel any discomfort in his body, but he abruptly quit his greatest hobby in his life.
The old woman died of brain congestion, and the doctor said it was caused by drinking blood.
At that time, after a busy day's work, the two of them liked to sit around the table and drink a little wine. When they drank, they smoked a bag of dry tobacco and sang a Beijing opera. The two grandsons who were still children clapped and applauded.
Life is the most unfortunate, white-haired people send black-haired people.
The son and daughter-in-law are gone, and the old couple is dragging two immature children, neither of whom can entertain themselves, and can't make it through.
The old man didn't drink, not because he was afraid of death, but because every time he drank, he seemed to see the old woman opposite.
After drinking it, tears flowed down my face.
Before dying, the old woman said a few words.
"I have lived with you for all these years. I have always been worrying about you. In the end, I was completely relieved. Don't rush down to find me. At least ten years later, you have to watch the children grow up. ! Then tell me carefully!”
After speaking, he passed away.
These words, the old man with poor memory will keep them firmly in his heart, ten years will pass after a while, and he will have to ask the old lady for some rewards.
Wang Changhu understood the feelings between his grandparents, sighed lightly, and changed the subject: "Chang Ming hasn't come back yet?"
Speaking of which, the two brothers are also strange, they don't talk much together, and they rarely communicate with each other. On the contrary, they are closer to their grandparents and talk about everything.
The old man said: "He is working outside, and he can only come back after twenty-nine!"
Wang Changhu nodded, very pleased with this younger brother.
When they were young, the two often fought. When they grew up, they stopped fighting and even lost their conversation.
But there is one thing Wang Changhu is very clear about, blood is thicker than water, any relationship is incomparable, once there is something wrong with each other, the first person to help is the other party.
The old man smiled and said, "My two grandsons are both men. What are others doing in college? They are messing around with each other, and you all know how to make money to support your family!"
Wang Changhu smiled and said, "It's not because of being poor, you think we both want this!"
Now that the family is well-off, although the Xiaochangjie education is not what it used to be, the money it can earn is enough to pay the tuition fees of the two brothers and subsidize the family. Now that the younger brother is working part-time, life will be even better.
It doesn't matter if you are poor, you can't be lazy, as long as you do something and make money every month, good days will come.
The old man smoked another cigarette and said, "Xiaojuan is back, do you want to take a look?"
As a grandfather, he knows his grandson and loves this child.
Although he didn't talk about the matter with Xiaojuan, the old man has long seen that it's tricky. Before, Xiaojuan almost grew up at home, but now, she hasn't been here for many days. There must be something wrong with the two of them.
Wang Changhu said: "Go to her in the afternoon, you sit down for a while, I'll cook right away!"
As if unwilling to say more, Wang Changhu went out to burn firewood.
Sitting on the bench, Wang Changhu was smoking a cigarette, adding firewood to the stove absent-mindedly.
For him, two major events happened last year.
At the beginning of the year, Xu Xiaojuan suddenly ignored him, and then wrote a breakup letter.
Wang Changhu had a classmate in her school, and that person said that Xiaojuan had found a boyfriend who was quite rich.
The seven-year relationship couldn't withstand the temptation of material things. Wang Changhu didn't give up, and wrote a reply letter, reminiscing about the details of the two together, trying to save this relationship.
In the end, the letter disappeared without a word.
Since then, the two have never seen each other again, and she didn't even go home during Chinese New Year last year.
After a miserable spring, there was an icy summer. There was an accident in the third quarter, Ji Xiaorou had an accident, and the boss and the others had another accident.
Everything has changed.
Fortunately, there is another small festival, and the boss and the others are doing well again. Although things have changed, they are developing for the better after all.
Now the only obsession in Wang Changhu's heart is Xu Xiaojuan, and he has already made a plan to meet her, no matter whether he can ask anything, just to understand the whole story.
An hour later, the small table was placed on the kang, and the old man knocked on his pipe and picked up a bowl of rice, and put a piece of braised pork on top.
Wang Changhu poured a glass of white wine abnormally, and said with a smile, "Grandpa, don't be greedy!"
The old man said: "Jiu Zhuang is cowardly, I understand!"
Wang Changhu drank a big gulp, the knives at home are really powerful.
After drinking and eating, Wang Changhu walked towards her house.
That's all for this chapter, my mind is too messed up, I can't write it! Sorry, folks!
