Chapter 278 Fourth Uncle
Yang Xiao smiled mischievously, picked up the Ninth Five-Year cigarette on the table and handed it to the fourth uncle.

"Fourth grandpa, smoke."

"well."

The fourth uncle took it with a smile, but saw that he pinched off the filter tip of the cigarette, twisted the body of the cigarette, twisted it into a trumpet shape and held it in his mouth.

Seeing Yang Xiao looking at him suspiciously, the fourth uncle smiled and said, "I'm not used to smoking this kind of cigarette with a filter tip. , very comfortable."

Yang Xiao didn't know what was going on, so she respectfully lit a fire for fourth uncle.

"Fourth grandpa, how old are you this year? I think you are in great health. You are very tough."

Yang Xiao didn't know what to say to the other party, and he was not familiar with the other party, so he started a simple chat.

The fourth uncle said: "I'm about the same age as your grandpa, how many years older am I than your grandpa?"

"Ah? Then fourth uncle, you are in really good health. I heard you keep talking about my grandfather, have you seen him?"

"That's right. When I was young, I often played together. Hey, to tell you the truth, I even found someone to block your grandfather. That kid, I get angry when I see him."

Yang Xiao really didn't know what to say, the ghost knew that the old man came here to tell him something.

"You're young, it's normal, I've fought before."

The fourth uncle said: "Hey, your grandpa is so powerful, that guy, he killed seven or eight of us by himself, good guy, I have never seen such a powerful person, so I always say this is your grandpa. "The fourth uncle stretched out his thumb.

Yang Xiao was still quite proud of herself, it's no wonder that Yang Chaosheng had joined the army back then, and he climbed out of the line of life and death, how could ordinary people be his opponents.

"Then why did you hit him?"

The fourth uncle smiled relievedly, and said: "You are young and ignorant. At that time, I was like Qian Hu now, and Zhao San from your village. In addition, your grandfather is a foreigner, and he married someone from your Shuiyang Village as soon as he came here." Dumb girl, how can we get used to him?"

"Mute girl?"

"Ang, don't you know? No one has told you? Your grandma is dumb, unable to speak, and has heart disease. I remember when she passed away, you and your father were both children. Maybe they I don’t have any impression, let alone you. Your grandfather seems to have injured his leg, and he is limping, and he has one arm, and more than half of his face has been destroyed. Although the dumb girl can’t speak, she is beautiful. She wants to marry There are too many people around her, who knows why she fell in love with that ugly grandfather of yours."

Yang Xiao became interested and found a topic. He changed into a comfortable posture and asked, "Fourth Grandpa, tell me about my grandparents."

The fourth uncle showed a look of reminiscence. After doing the math, almost 50 years have passed. When he met Yang Chaosheng at that time, there was no Yang Huaiqing.

It's true that time is not forgiving, and people are old in the blink of an eye.

"Actually, there's nothing to talk about. Your grandfather and I met after that fight. Your grandfather has a bad temper and a weird personality. He doesn't get along well with all of you in the village. He's quite withdrawn. This may be his Poor self-esteem! There are only two people who play well with him, one is Xie Gou from your village, who died in a car accident a few years ago, and the other is Hu Digua from your village.”

Yang Xiao was taken aback, and asked, "Who? Who is Hu Digua?"

The fourth uncle thought for a while, and said: "He is... Don't tell me, I only remember his nickname, but I can't remember his name when I suddenly think about it. His real name... Oh, Hu Lujin! Yes, Hu Lujin. He is short and has a very round head, so we all call him Hu Digua. Hu Lujin is quite a nice person, simple and honest, and he can bear your grandpa's bad temper, as if your grandpa saved his life, so the two of them The relationship is the best. Then there is the relationship between me and your grandfather."

"Didn't you get beaten by my grandfather?"

"Yeah, that's why I admire your grandpa. I often go to play with him. In fact, I want him to teach me two tricks. Hey, it turned out that your grandpa is very picky! You haven't taught me a single trick for so many years. I, every time I go to your house, he has to kick me out and take me to places like the river and the mountains. I remember that we went to Taiqing Mountain most often. Your grandpa knows Chinese medicine and knows how to Go to Taiqing Mountain to collect herbs and grind them up for your grandma to eat."

It turned out that Hu Lujin had the best relationship with his grandfather, no wonder Hu Lujin liked Yang Xiao so much when he was a child.

but……

I haven't heard Yang Huaiqing and Yang Huaimin mention this matter.

"Why didn't my dad and I mention you?"

The fourth uncle said: "This is because we broke up later. Your grandfather didn't know what happened that day. His temperament seemed to have changed drastically. I went to find him and entered your yard, but he beat me up violently. Let me go, I asked the reason and he didn't tell me, and then beat me up again. I was so angry, I scolded him a few words and left. Not long after, Hu Digua also went to your house, and he also beat me After a pause, I came out crying. I asked Hu Digua what was wrong, but Hu Digua didn't speak, and ran away with red eyes. Since then, I have never looked for your grandfather. At that time, your third uncle was just born, your father and you I should only be a few years old, and I don’t remember these things.”

"Not long after, your grandma passed away because of a heart attack. In fact, the medicines your grandpa gave your grandma are quite useful. It stands to reason that your grandma should have been ill long ago, and it has been dragging on for so long. Alas, I don't know. Why. If your grandpa continues to collect herbs for your grandma, your grandma should live another ten or twenty years, at least I think so."

Yang Xiao was silent after hearing this, not knowing what to say.

The fourth uncle said again: "Looking at you just now, I suddenly remembered your grandpa, so I came to talk to you. Oh, it's my fault, maybe your grandpa was in a bad mood those few days, I should tell him Be more tolerant and understanding, so that when your grandma left later, she was very shabby and only wrapped a mat. If I were here, I would have to get a coffin for your grandma no matter what. Your grandpa has no money, and Hu Digua is more It’s the jingle of poverty, alas, when I think of this incident in recent years, I feel like a stick in my throat, which makes me uncomfortable. Okay, let’s not talk, you can eat, I’m going over there to drink.”

"Hey." Yang Xiao responded, "Fourth Grandpa, please drink less."

"Okay, okay. Xiaoxiao, you are amazing! When your grandma married your grandpa, your grandpa was so angry that he vomited blood and refused to recognize your grandma as a daughter. Your family has always been the poorest in Qinghegou all those years. Your grandpa and grandma I haven't lived a good life in this life, and I have been looked down upon by others. Look at you now, your grandparents are probably laughing in the sky!"
