Reborn Sanitary
Chapter 47
One was humming an out-of-tune tune, and the other was grinning and wanted to jump out of the car and run home. Finally, when he couldn't bear it anymore, Xu Tao grabbed Meng Zhan's wrist and beat it on his thigh, "Captain, how much did you say I sent?" money?"
Xu Tao held back for a long time and finally felt that he had found a question that could interrupt Meng Zhan's magic sound, so he hurriedly asked, Meng Zhan stopped the out of tune tune, looked at Xu Tao and held Xu Tao's palm with his backhand, "Stupid, 1275.8, It’s 1276. I don’t remember how much I paid. Our salary is low, but the subsidy is large. The subsidy is based on the amount of tasks. Our team has the most. Let me tell you, everyone is not in the habit of asking how much the subsidy is. Ask about it."
Xu Tao secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and pouted slightly, "I know, I won't ask others how much they send." He drew out his palm and wiped the sweat on his thigh, "Captain, your blood is hot, why don't you The palms are still sweating." Xu Tao lowered his head and asked while wiping.
Meng Zhan twitched the corner of his mouth, "Yeah, my blood is hot." After speaking, he continued to look forward solemnly, NND, you can't say that I am excited.
"Captain, the palms of the blood are hot and the skin is easy to get rough. You should find time to go to the general hospital and prescribe some medicine." Xu Tao's slightly concerned words made the corners of Meng Zhan's mouth twitch again, "Got it, I will find time to see .”
Xu Tao grinned and looked forward, "Captain, where are we going?"
"County L, where is my old man? My uncle is an old Chinese doctor. Let me show you. Didn't you go to the hospital last time?" Meng Zhan shifted gears and accelerated.
Xu Tao frowned, "Captain, I'm in good health, don't worry about it, but when we pass by the city, let's buy something, anyway, I'll go to your house anyway, and I have to buy some gifts for the old man, Captain, you What does the old man like?"
Xu Tao said while pulling his backpack from behind, took out the wallet, and looked at how much money was in it, Meng Zhan glanced at Xu Tao, and couldn't help but smile on his face, "Anything is fine, my old man likes to drink, when the time comes I'll take you to the winery and buy some high-quality wine."
Xu Tao nodded, saw the wad of money in the wallet again, rubbed his forehead, couldn't help showing a helpless smile, Meng Zhan touched the top of Xu Tao's head, "What's wrong?"
Xu Tao tilted his head, gave Meng Zhan a blank look, and handed over the wallet to Meng Zhan to have a look at. Meng Zhan saw the thick wad of money stuffed in the wallet, there must be tens of thousands of money in the wallet, and looked at Xu Tao in surprise , "Why do you bring so much money?"
"My sister must have stuffed it for me. Don't I have several sheds in my house? When my sister got married, I gave it to my sister. My sister left one for me, saying that it would be saved for me to marry a wife later. The money here must have been secretly stuffed by my sister last night." Xu Tao said while looking down at the backpack to see if Xu Yan was hidden under the backpack besides the wallet, and did not see Meng Zhan's instant blackening When turning to the bottom, the hard bag caught in the clothes, Xu Tao sighed, pulled out the bag, a neat rectangular paper bag, Xu Tao opened it, and there was another wad of money, Xu Tao I took a glance, "My sister is really, I don't need money, why does she keep giving me money secretly." Although it was a small complaint, there was still a strong joy of being cared for in the words.
Meng Zhan glanced at Xu Tao quickly, "What? Are you looking for a wife?" Meng Zhan's probing words made Xu Tao froze for a moment, and looked up at Meng Zhan in astonishment, "Who said I was looking for a wife? How old am I? ? Don’t say I don’t have that kind of thought, even if there is, no one will take a fancy to me.”
Meng Zhan, who had been secretly observing Xu Tao's expression after speaking, suddenly smiled on his rigid face, and nodded with a smile, "Taozi, you are young, and you are not in a hurry to find a wife. Besides, even if you are looking for one, you have to find someone who is considerate. Those who can take care of you, those who can love and pamper you well, girls nowadays have high eyesight, let alone those who are soldiers like us, if we are separated all the year round, maybe they will secretly do something outside behind your back."
Xu Tao nodded in agreement, "Girls in the city have high eyesight, so they definitely don't like me, a kid from the countryside, but." Xu Tao looked up and down Meng Zhan with a little curiosity, "Captain, how do you know girls so well? Besides, what if According to the standard you said, I have to be a bachelor for the rest of my life."
After Xu Tao finished speaking, he shook his head and laughed, and Meng Zhan also laughed, "My family has eight brothers, and I only have four nieces. Do you think I don't know what girls are like now?" Meng Zhan muttered to himself, playing bachelor That's good, if you are a bachelor, no one will rob you. Although you are not afraid of someone robbing you, you still hate it. He glanced at Xu Tao cryptically while muttering.
"Eight?" Xu Tao stared at Meng Zhan with wide eyes in surprise, and Meng Zhan nodded, "Eight, I am an old man. My old man is almost sixty years old and I am the only one. My eldest nephew is older than me." Xu Tao clicked his lips in surprise, "You have so many family members."
Meng Zhan nodded in agreement, "When I catch up and go home, no one in the room is on the ground, it's too noisy." After speaking, he remembered the old man's [-]th birthday a few years ago, when the room was full of adults and children, slightly He frowned.
Walked while chatting, had a meal in a nearby county at noon, and finally arrived at L county after two o'clock in the afternoon, drove into the county, Xu Tao looked around, subconsciously compared with his hometown, grinned, the two The county is about the same, and my hometown has developed well over the years. After reading it left and right, "Captain, what are the characteristics of this place?"
Meng Zhan smiled, looked at Xu Tao, "Guess, it's very famous here." Xu Tao looked around suspiciously, but didn't see anything, shook his head and looked at Meng Zhan, "I don't know." Slow the car, "Hot springs, there are underground hot springs in L County, which can nourish your body and cure diseases. I will take you to the hot springs in the evening."
Xu Tao looked at Meng Zhan in surprise, "Hot spring? Is there a hot spring in H province?" Meng Zhan nodded, "Yes, it's in L county. You'll know it at night. It's very comfortable to sleep after soaking." Xu Tao nodded vigorously. "I haven't been in a hot spring yet, Captain, is the hot spring far from your home?"
"It's not far away. I have it in my yard. I dug it out myself a few years ago." Meng Zhan's words made Xu Tao smile a little enviously, "That's great, you can soak whenever you want, Captain, your uncle is definitely in good health." very good."
Xu Tao's words reminded Meng Zhan of his own old man, a man in his 80s, with a loud voice, two big bowls of rice for a meal, two or three taels of liquor, walking like flying, and when beating people, his legs and feet were extremely agile, especially chasing after him. Suddenly, Meng Zhan twitched the corner of his mouth again.
Coughing, "Well, you are in pretty good health." Meng Zhan rubbed the bridge of his nose unconsciously, "By the way, Xiao Tao, the winery is in front, let's buy some high-grade grain wine for the old man first." Xu Tao agreed, Stretching his neck and looking ahead, Meng Zhan turned a corner at the intersection and drove straight to the winery.
The car stopped at the gate of the winery, Meng Zhan Xu Tao got out of the car, Meng Zhan took Xu Tao directly to find the director of the winery, Xu Tao stood behind Meng Zhan, looked at Meng Zhan and greeted the director with a smile, and went again The underground wine storehouse brought out two large jars of white wine. Xu Tao quickly took out the money and paid 500 yuan. Meng Zhan glanced at Xu Tao and didn't rush to pay. He greeted with a smile and left holding the jars. winery.
Started the car again and set off again, after three o'clock, finally arrived at Meng Zhan's home, got off at the gate, Xu Tao stared at Meng Zhan with startled eyes and pointed at the big house with a huge yard in front of him, "Your home?"
Holding a wine jar in one hand, Meng Zhan touched Xu Tao and nodded, "Go in, my family has a large population, and the yard must be big."
Xu Tao followed Meng Zhan into the yard with the open gate, a little speechless.It was almost catching up with a yard the size of a training ground. There were fruit trees planted in the yard, and a few stone tables and benches were placed under the trees. A wide road paved with red bricks stretched along the gate to the door of the big tile-roofed house.
Xu Tao looked at it while walking, and clicked his mouth while looking at it. It’s really big. The row of big tile-roofed houses forms a semicircle, and there are about ten rooms. Completely independent, followed behind Meng Zhan and walked into the room facing the door, "You son of a bitch, you still know how to go home, you treat your father as dead, as if you lost it when you go out?"
Xu Tao was startled by a loud shout, and quickly stretched out his head from behind Meng Zhan to look forward. Standing in the big living room was a short, fat old man with a flushed face, holding a short-sweeping kang. The broom stared at Meng Zhan with wide eyes. When he saw Xu Tao who was showing his head from behind Meng Zhan, the angry face suddenly disappeared, and he smiled kindly in an instant. He threw the broom bump in his hand behind him and pointed at Xu Tao. Waving, "Who's child, come here."
Xu Tao was taken aback by the rapid change of the fat old man, as if changing his face in a Sichuan opera. The old man Meng Dang rushed to Xu Tao's side in a few steps, pushed Meng Zhan aside with a crooked butt, and looked up and down while holding Xu Tao's arm. Looking at Meng Zhan, Meng Zhan pretended not to see and pointed to the wine jar on the ground, "Xiaotao bought it for you, you can drink it leisurely, if you dare to drink more, I will throw away your wine jar .”
Meng Zhan's threat made Meng Dangsheng jump up, blushing and roaring, "You dare, if you dare to throw my wine jar, I will go to the army to find your leader and say that you bully the elderly." Another face-changing The old man made Xu Tao surprised and funny. He looked at the proud old man after he finished speaking, and then at the helpless Meng Zhan. He touched the top of Xu Tao's head, and was slapped by Xu Tao, "Don't keep touching my head, you can't touch a man's head." After finishing speaking, Meng Zhan gave him a look.
Meng Zhan's deflation made Meng Dangsheng laugh hahaha, proudly raised his double chin at Meng Zhan, pulled Xu Tao and walked into the house, "Go, enter the house, ignore this dead boy."
Xu Tao smiled and followed Meng Dangsheng into the room. Meng Zhan looked at the smug old man and the smiling Xu Tao, a smile flashed in his eyes, and followed them to the back room.
As soon as he entered the room, Xu Tao saw a big kang covered with small floral floor leather. Xu Tao sat on the kang under the invitation of Mr. Meng and looked around. The room was very big, except for a big On the kang, and the kang cabinet on the kang, there is a row of dark red wooden sofas on the ground near the window. In front of the sofa is a sofa table with a big ashtray on it. Perhaps it is because of the main room, the lighting in the room is very good. The room is bright.
Looking around, Xu Tao looked back at the smiling old man sitting opposite him, and smiled. Meng Zhan sat beside Xu Tao, looking at the smiling old man, and couldn't help but want to sigh. The older he got, the more he looked like a child, but then Thinking of the purpose of coming back this time, "Old man, is my uncle at home?"
Meng Zhan's greeting made Meng Dang put away his smiling face in an instant, "What are you doing at home? Are you sick?" After speaking, he looked up and down Meng Zhan with some worry. Although the father and son were noisy and rowdy, the eight sons Among them, Meng Dang students miss and love Meng Zhan the most. The old woman disappeared not long after the child was born, and there are a lot of brothers and sisters on it, but Meng Dang students feel that they are not at ease in entrusting Meng Zhan to anyone. There are more than 60 people. Pulled Meng Zhan up with shit, in order to find a good future for Meng Zhan, and also afraid that he would not see Meng Zhan grow up, so he called the old woman's younger brother early, and taught Meng Zhan since he was five years old. Fighting martial arts, the child is stubborn, and has been studying for ten years. After being recruited into the army at the age of 16, although it is not that he has never thought about looking for his old relationship, but the dead child just disagrees. He has not returned home for five years after leaving. Seeing that he is going step by step towards a good future, don't think that he doesn't know the situation when he is old. Those old buddies often tell him how his little eight can do it, how can he work hard, even though he said haha, But when he hung up the phone, Meng Dang wished to kick Meng Zhan to death, a prodigal thing, and the old man dared to do his best while he was still alive.
Over the years, Meng Dangsheng is afraid that those old brothers will call. Although few of them are alive, the only ones who are alive always send some news from time to time, which makes him worried and proud. Thinking about these things Years of worry and miss, Meng Dangsheng secretly sighed, he is already this age, how many years can he live?The sons are all good, but they are good, they all have their own homes, if they are gone, who can take good care of their little Ba?It was because of this kind of thinking that Meng Zhan told himself that he liked men, although he was angry, but his age was here, and he admitted it after beating up the bastard, and the debt was all owed to him.
The worry in Meng Dang's eyes warmed Meng Zhan's heart, and he smiled at his father for the first time after returning home, "I'm not sick, I'm fine, don't worry about me, I want my uncle to give my father a smile." Take a look at Tao, some time ago he went on a mission to save and hurt people."
Meng Dang breathed a sigh of relief and then brought it up again. Although Meng Zhan didn't say anything, he knew that the bastard brought him home because he meant to be sure and let himself see, although he privately After observing it, the kid on the opposite side is not enlightened, but he also knows what kind of bastard he is, and he will definitely fool him in the end. If he is not seriously ill, Meng Zhan will not bring him back. The eldest brother is three years older than himself, how much He hasn't seen a doctor for many years. It's not that Meng Zhan doesn't know. Meng Dangsheng looked at Xu Tao carefully, looked at his expression carefully, and frowned slightly. Although he doesn't know how to see a doctor, he has been following his elder brother all these years, and his expression is still the same. It can be seen that Xu Tao seems to be looking good, but there is a deep tiredness hidden between his brows. It is said that a child of this age should not be so tired.
Meng Dang got off the kang, took Xu Tao's hand and walked out, "Go, go to the next door and let your uncle see."
While talking and striding forward, Xu Tao looked at the old man who pulled him away with a grin, and looked back at Meng Zhan, Meng Zhan comforted him to keep up, and patted Xu Tao on the back, "It's okay, just watch look."
Xu Tao nodded, "I know, but I'm actually not sick. It's troublesome if you insist on taking a look."
Meng Dangsheng turned his head and glared at Xu Tao, "What's the trouble, it's all from my family, and that's your uncle." Xu Tao glanced at Meng Dangsheng who continued to turn his head and drag him forward after speaking in confusion, After thinking about it, my family?That's right, aren't you and the captain brothers?Xu Tao, who thought he wanted to understand, shook off the weirdness, and followed Meng Dangsheng out of the courtyard with a smile, and turned directly into another courtyard on the left. The two connected courtyards were about the same size, Xu Tao secretly clicked his lips , Such a big yard is just planting some fruit trees, it's useless.
Xu Tao, who followed Meng Dangsheng directly into the house, saw an old man lying on a rocking chair, with silver hair, long white beard, and long white eyebrows. Although he didn't smile on his face, he was sitting there dangling. It gave people a leisurely and peaceful atmosphere, walked in slowly, and unconsciously became peaceful, Meng Dangsheng pulled Xu Tao to sit on the stool beside the rocking chair, Meng Dangsheng put his head next to Meng Jiansheng, "Brother , Xiaoba is back, and brought a child, you can take a look."
Meng Jiansheng squinted slightly to look at Meng Zhan first, stretched out his hand to make a move, Meng Zhan walked to Meng Jiansheng and squatted aside, automatically placed his wrist beside Meng Jiansheng, Meng Jiansheng put three fingers on Meng Zhan's wrist, After a while, he raised his hand and knocked on Meng Zhan, "Only once." Meng Zhan nodded, "Got it."
Meng Jiansheng withdrew his gaze from Meng Zhan and landed on Xu Tao. The old man's gaze was soft, but Xu Tao felt nervous for some reason. Xu Tao's undisguised nervousness made Meng Jiansheng smile, "Give me your hand. "A soft voice sounded, Xu Tao stretched out his hand quickly, unlike Meng Zhan who put three fingers on his wrist, but one finger, half-opened eyes let Meng Zhan who was standing aside slow down his breathing, and looked nervously at Meng Zhan Jiansheng, it took a long time for Meng Jiansheng to withdraw his hand, sat up straight and looked at Xu Tao, "Tired?"
Xu Tao froze for a moment, then nodded embarrassingly, "A little bit." The complete truth made Meng Jiansheng laugh, "You children, if you don't pay attention to taking care of your body when you are young, you will feel uncomfortable when you are old." After speaking, he looked at Meng Zhan, "Go to the third drawer in the back room and bring a white porcelain vase with orchids."
Meng Zhan agreed, turned around and walked into the house. Xu Tao took a look at Meng Zhan's back, sat obediently beside Meng Jiansheng, and listened to Meng Jiansheng talking about paying attention to his body, taking good care of his body, exercising properly, and reducing mental stress. Don't be too big, think about everything, don't put so much pressure on yourself, Xu Tao nodded obediently, making the Meng party student sitting on the side a little funny, knowing that this child is honest, but he didn't expect to be so honest, people said He listened to whatever and shook his head secretly.
Holding the porcelain bottle and returning to the front room, Meng Zhan saw Xu Tao's obedient nod, a smile flashed in his eyes, walked to Meng Jiansheng, handed the medicine bottle to Meng Jiansheng, Meng Jiansheng took it, and put it in Xu Tao's hand, "Seven pills a day, don't stop, take it for 21 days in a row, and you must pay attention to your body in the future."
Xu Tao agreed, and several people chatted for a while, Meng Dangsheng took the two of them back to his home, checked the time, stood in the yard and yelled that he was hungry, the three of them had dinner, Meng Zhan Taking Xu Tao around, he took a change of clothes and went directly to the backyard. When Xu Tao followed Meng Zhan to a big stone room, he opened the door. Xu Tao was a little surprised by the foggy room. There really was a hot spring.
Meng Zhan turned on the headlights, and Xu Tao saw a large pool of stones in the house. The pool was steaming continuously. Xu Tao walked over and stretched his hands into the water. It was so hot. Xu Tao smiled and looked up at Meng Zhan. "Captain, is it really a hot spring? The water is quite hot."
In the mist, Xu Tao's face was a little bit hazy under the light, Meng Zhan's eyes shrank slightly, and he smiled, and put Xu Tao's clothes in the cabinet beside him, "Xiao Tao, take a good soak in the hot spring, I'll go to the front yard Take a look." After finishing speaking, without waiting for Xu Tao to react, he turned around and left quickly. Meng Zhan, who was standing by the door for a while, slowly raised his footsteps and left slowly, slowly depicting Xu Tao's smiling eyebrows and eyes in the mist. Heaving a sigh of relief, Meng Zhan showed a wry smile, suppressed the sudden desire/desire in his heart, shook his head and walked forward quickly.
The author has something to say:
In September 2014, at the train station in S City, Xu Tao and Meng Zhan, who had returned to their hometown because of Wang Rui's entrance examination, had just walked out of the station. When they saw Li Jianhua waiting outside the station, Xu Tao waved, "Squad leader, this way."
Li Jianhua stretched his neck to look over, saw Meng Zhan first, and then saw Xu Tao in the gap. Looking at the two people carrying luggage and protecting Xu Tao out of the crowd, Li Jianhua smiled, walked forward quickly, took Xu Tao's hand Looking up and down the bag in his hand, Li Jianhua laughed hahaha, "Did you two go home, or came back from famine, why are you carrying so many things?"
Xu Tao turned his head to look at Meng Zhan, took the big plastic bag in Meng Zhan's hand, and smiled helplessly, "My sister prepared it, can you not take it, or my sister will cry, by the way , Is there something wrong with you taking the initiative to pick us up?"
Li Jianhua chuckled, "Let's talk when we get in the car." Xu Tao looked at Li Jianhua's humble smile, resisted the urge to roll his eyes, and followed Meng Zhan out of the station entrance.
Sitting in the car, Li Jianhua was not in a hurry to start the car, and turned to look at Xu Tao, "Old Zhao is talking about friends."
Li Jianhua's words blew up Xu Tao. Zhao Jun is about the same age as Meng Zhan. He hasn't seen anyone he likes in these years. He thought he liked men, but after Xu Tao asked again, he was despised by Zhao Jun. That's when Xu Tao knew It turned out that Zhao Jun wanted to find someone he liked, but these years have passed, and there are so many girls around him, but he didn't see Zhao Jun finding someone he liked. At the end of the trouble, he thought he was going to be a bachelor, but he actually found someone up.
Xu Tao stretched his head to Li Jianhua curiously, "Did you see it?" Li Jianhua nodded triumphantly, "I see, this old Zhao wants to introduce someone to you two, just right, you two don't rush back, come soon It's time for dinner, go back after eating."
Xu Tao glanced at Meng Zhan, Meng Zhan rubbed the top of Xu Tao's head, nodded, "Go and have a look, aren't you curious?"
Xu Tao grinned, and nodded vigorously, "I'm curious, I thought he wasn't going to look for it."
A few people rushed to the hotel that Zhao Jun had reserved. On the way, Li Jianhua introduced the situation of the woman. Shi Xin, a university teacher, was 30 years old, and her hometown was in the province of J. She was a typical southern girl. Share the taste of Jiangnan water town.
When they arrived at the hotel, the three of Xu Tao had just walked into the box when they saw Zhao Jun holding a cup of hot water and whistling, seeing a few people just saying hello, and handing the water cup in his hand to the woman beside him, Xu Tao took a closer look , nodded secretly, she looked like a woman with a good temper.
One meal, more than two hours, Xu Tao has fully experienced Zhao Jun's concern for Shi Xin, from a dish to a glass of water, everything is properly prepared, making Xu Tao feel sour and toothache, and finally eat After dinner, Xu Tao and Meng Zhan were sent back to the army by Li Jianhua. When they returned home, Xu Tao sat on the sofa and thought of Zhao Jun’s sticky appearance. He felt a toothache. With a smile, he put his arms around Xu Tao's shoulders and buried his head in the crescent of his neck, what a fool.
In fact, Meng Zhan can understand Zhao Jun's concern. After waiting for so many years, it is not easy to meet someone who is completely in line with his heart. Not everyone is as lucky as himself, and he met Kexin early. Moreover, the lover who is completely in line with his own heart has walked by him year after year. Sometimes Meng Zhan is very grateful, very grateful to Xu Tao for appearing in his life early, otherwise, he would go around like Zhao Jun. people wandering.
Xu Tao looked at Meng Zhan lying on his neck with some doubts, "What are you laughing at?"
Meng Zhan looked up at Xu Tao who was full of doubts, bowed his head and kissed, "It's okay, I'm just happy for Zhao Jun. I'm so old to find someone I like, and I think they will get married soon." Xu Tao thought about it for a while, yes, Nodded, "It is estimated that we will get married soon, and then we will follow Zhao Jun to pick up the bride."
Meng Zhan nodded with a smile, put his arms around Xu Tao and listened to Xu Tao rambling about the scene of Xu Yan's marriage before, with a little regret in his heart. Although they have been together for many years, they have never given Xu Tao a wedding that belongs to the two of them. Although his own fool doesn't care, Meng Zhan has regrets in his heart, but these years he also knows that being able to get to where he is today is already the greatest degree of acquiescence. Suppressing that trace of regret, Meng Zhan leaned on the back of the sofa and smiled Looking at the lover under the light, that's it, it's enough to be with each other like this.
Bow down and thank the bookworm for throwing mines, thank you~!
Xu Tao held back for a long time and finally felt that he had found a question that could interrupt Meng Zhan's magic sound, so he hurriedly asked, Meng Zhan stopped the out of tune tune, looked at Xu Tao and held Xu Tao's palm with his backhand, "Stupid, 1275.8, It’s 1276. I don’t remember how much I paid. Our salary is low, but the subsidy is large. The subsidy is based on the amount of tasks. Our team has the most. Let me tell you, everyone is not in the habit of asking how much the subsidy is. Ask about it."
Xu Tao secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and pouted slightly, "I know, I won't ask others how much they send." He drew out his palm and wiped the sweat on his thigh, "Captain, your blood is hot, why don't you The palms are still sweating." Xu Tao lowered his head and asked while wiping.
Meng Zhan twitched the corner of his mouth, "Yeah, my blood is hot." After speaking, he continued to look forward solemnly, NND, you can't say that I am excited.
"Captain, the palms of the blood are hot and the skin is easy to get rough. You should find time to go to the general hospital and prescribe some medicine." Xu Tao's slightly concerned words made the corners of Meng Zhan's mouth twitch again, "Got it, I will find time to see .”
Xu Tao grinned and looked forward, "Captain, where are we going?"
"County L, where is my old man? My uncle is an old Chinese doctor. Let me show you. Didn't you go to the hospital last time?" Meng Zhan shifted gears and accelerated.
Xu Tao frowned, "Captain, I'm in good health, don't worry about it, but when we pass by the city, let's buy something, anyway, I'll go to your house anyway, and I have to buy some gifts for the old man, Captain, you What does the old man like?"
Xu Tao said while pulling his backpack from behind, took out the wallet, and looked at how much money was in it, Meng Zhan glanced at Xu Tao, and couldn't help but smile on his face, "Anything is fine, my old man likes to drink, when the time comes I'll take you to the winery and buy some high-quality wine."
Xu Tao nodded, saw the wad of money in the wallet again, rubbed his forehead, couldn't help showing a helpless smile, Meng Zhan touched the top of Xu Tao's head, "What's wrong?"
Xu Tao tilted his head, gave Meng Zhan a blank look, and handed over the wallet to Meng Zhan to have a look at. Meng Zhan saw the thick wad of money stuffed in the wallet, there must be tens of thousands of money in the wallet, and looked at Xu Tao in surprise , "Why do you bring so much money?"
"My sister must have stuffed it for me. Don't I have several sheds in my house? When my sister got married, I gave it to my sister. My sister left one for me, saying that it would be saved for me to marry a wife later. The money here must have been secretly stuffed by my sister last night." Xu Tao said while looking down at the backpack to see if Xu Yan was hidden under the backpack besides the wallet, and did not see Meng Zhan's instant blackening When turning to the bottom, the hard bag caught in the clothes, Xu Tao sighed, pulled out the bag, a neat rectangular paper bag, Xu Tao opened it, and there was another wad of money, Xu Tao I took a glance, "My sister is really, I don't need money, why does she keep giving me money secretly." Although it was a small complaint, there was still a strong joy of being cared for in the words.
Meng Zhan glanced at Xu Tao quickly, "What? Are you looking for a wife?" Meng Zhan's probing words made Xu Tao froze for a moment, and looked up at Meng Zhan in astonishment, "Who said I was looking for a wife? How old am I? ? Don’t say I don’t have that kind of thought, even if there is, no one will take a fancy to me.”
Meng Zhan, who had been secretly observing Xu Tao's expression after speaking, suddenly smiled on his rigid face, and nodded with a smile, "Taozi, you are young, and you are not in a hurry to find a wife. Besides, even if you are looking for one, you have to find someone who is considerate. Those who can take care of you, those who can love and pamper you well, girls nowadays have high eyesight, let alone those who are soldiers like us, if we are separated all the year round, maybe they will secretly do something outside behind your back."
Xu Tao nodded in agreement, "Girls in the city have high eyesight, so they definitely don't like me, a kid from the countryside, but." Xu Tao looked up and down Meng Zhan with a little curiosity, "Captain, how do you know girls so well? Besides, what if According to the standard you said, I have to be a bachelor for the rest of my life."
After Xu Tao finished speaking, he shook his head and laughed, and Meng Zhan also laughed, "My family has eight brothers, and I only have four nieces. Do you think I don't know what girls are like now?" Meng Zhan muttered to himself, playing bachelor That's good, if you are a bachelor, no one will rob you. Although you are not afraid of someone robbing you, you still hate it. He glanced at Xu Tao cryptically while muttering.
"Eight?" Xu Tao stared at Meng Zhan with wide eyes in surprise, and Meng Zhan nodded, "Eight, I am an old man. My old man is almost sixty years old and I am the only one. My eldest nephew is older than me." Xu Tao clicked his lips in surprise, "You have so many family members."
Meng Zhan nodded in agreement, "When I catch up and go home, no one in the room is on the ground, it's too noisy." After speaking, he remembered the old man's [-]th birthday a few years ago, when the room was full of adults and children, slightly He frowned.
Walked while chatting, had a meal in a nearby county at noon, and finally arrived at L county after two o'clock in the afternoon, drove into the county, Xu Tao looked around, subconsciously compared with his hometown, grinned, the two The county is about the same, and my hometown has developed well over the years.

It's very comfortable to sleep after soaking." Xu Tao nodded vigorously. "I haven't been in a hot spring yet, Captain, is the hot spring far from your home?"
"It's not far away. I have it in my yard. I dug it out myself a few years ago." Meng Zhan's words made Xu Tao smile a little enviously, "That's great, you can soak whenever you want, Captain, your uncle is definitely in good health." very good."
Xu Tao's words reminded Meng Zhan of his own old man, a man in his 80s, with a loud voice, two big bowls of rice for a meal, two or three taels of liquor, walking like flying, and when beating people, his legs and feet were extremely agile, especially chasing after him. Suddenly, Meng Zhan twitched the corner of his mouth again.
Coughing, "Well, you are in pretty good health." Meng Zhan rubbed the bridge of his nose unconsciously, "By the way, Xiao Tao, the winery is in front, let's buy some high-grade grain wine for the old man first." Xu Tao agreed, Stretching his neck and looking ahead, Meng Zhan turned a corner at the intersection and drove straight to the winery.
The car stopped at the gate of the winery, Meng Zhan Xu Tao got out of the car, Meng Zhan took Xu Tao directly to find the director of the winery, Xu Tao stood behind Meng Zhan, looked at Meng Zhan and greeted the director with a smile, and went again The underground wine storehouse brought out two large jars of white wine. Xu Tao quickly took out the money and paid 500 yuan. Meng Zhan glanced at Xu Tao and didn't rush to pay. He greeted with a smile and left holding the jars. winery.
Started the car again and set off again, after three o'clock, finally arrived at Meng Zhan's home, got off at the gate, Xu Tao stared at Meng Zhan with startled eyes and pointed at the big house with a huge yard in front of him, "Your home?"
Holding a wine jar in one hand, Meng Zhan touched Xu Tao and nodded, "Go in, my family has a large population, and the yard must be big."
Xu Tao followed Meng Zhan into the yard with the open gate, a little speechless.It was almost catching up with a yard the size of a training ground. There were fruit trees planted in the yard, and a few stone tables and benches were placed under the trees. A wide road paved with red bricks stretched along the gate to the door of the big tile-roofed house.
Xu Tao looked at it while walking, and clicked his mouth while looking at it. It’s really big. The row of big tile-roofed houses forms a semicircle, and there are about ten rooms. Completely independent, followed behind Meng Zhan and walked into the room facing the door, "You son of a bitch, you still know how to go home, you treat your father as dead, as if you lost it when you go out?"
Xu Tao was startled by a loud shout, and quickly stretched out his head from behind Meng Zhan to look forward. Standing in the big living room was a short, fat old man with a flushed face, holding a short-sweeping kang. The broom stared at Meng Zhan with wide eyes. When he saw Xu Tao who was showing his head from behind Meng Zhan, the angry face suddenly disappeared, and he smiled kindly in an instant. He threw the broom bump in his hand behind him and pointed at Xu Tao. Waving, "Who's child, come here."
Xu Tao was taken aback by the rapid change of the fat old man, as if changing his face in a Sichuan opera. The old man Meng Dang rushed to Xu Tao's side in a few steps, pushed Meng Zhan aside with a crooked butt, and looked up and down while holding Xu Tao's arm. Looking at Meng Zhan, Meng Zhan pretended not to see and pointed to the wine jar on the ground, "Xiaotao bought it for you, you can drink it leisurely, if you dare to drink more, I will throw away your wine jar .”
Meng Zhan's threat made Meng Dangsheng jump up, blushing and roaring, "You dare, if you dare to throw my wine jar, I will go to the army to find your leader and say that you bully the elderly." Another face-changing The old man made Xu Tao surprised and funny. He looked at the proud old man after he finished speaking, and then at the helpless Meng Zhan. He touched the top of Xu Tao's head, and was slapped by Xu Tao, "Don't keep touching my head, you can't touch a man's head." After finishing speaking, Meng Zhan gave him a look.
Meng Zhan's deflation made Meng Dangsheng laugh hahaha, proudly raised his double chin at Meng Zhan, pulled Xu Tao and walked into the house, "Go, enter the house, ignore this dead boy."
Xu Tao smiled and followed Meng Dangsheng into the room. Meng Zhan looked at the smug old man and the smiling Xu Tao, a smile flashed in his eyes, and followed them to the back room.
As soon as he entered the room, Xu Tao saw a big kang covered with small floral floor leather. Xu Tao sat on the kang under the invitation of Mr. Meng and looked around. The room was very big, except for a big On the kang, and the kang cabinet on the kang, there is a row of dark red wooden sofas on the ground near the window. In front of the sofa is a sofa table with a big ashtray on it. Perhaps it is because of the main room, the lighting in the room is very good. The room is bright.
Looking around, Xu Tao looked back at the smiling old man sitting opposite him, and smiled. Meng Zhan sat beside Xu Tao, looking at the smiling old man, and couldn't help but want to sigh. The older he got, the more he looked like a child, but then Thinking of the purpose of coming back this time, "Old man, is my uncle at home?"
Meng Zhan's greeting made Meng Dang put away his smiling face in an instant, "What are you doing at home? Are you sick?" After speaking, he looked up and down Meng Zhan with some worry. Although the father and son were noisy and rowdy, the eight sons Among them, Meng Dang students miss and love Meng Zhan the most. The old woman disappeared not long after the child was born, and there are a lot of brothers and sisters on it, but Meng Dang students feel that they are not at ease in entrusting Meng Zhan to anyone. There are more than 60 people. Pulled Meng Zhan up with shit, in order to find a good future for Meng Zhan, and also afraid that he would not see Meng Zhan grow up, so he called the old woman's younger brother early, and taught Meng Zhan since he was five years old. Fighting martial arts, the child is stubborn, and has been studying for ten years. After being recruited into the army at the age of 16, although it is not that he has never thought about looking for his old relationship, but the dead child just disagrees. He has not returned home for five years after leaving. Seeing that he is going step by step towards a good future, don't think that he doesn't know the situation when he is old. Those old buddies often tell him how his little eight can do it, how can he work hard, even though he said haha, But when he hung up the phone, Meng Dang wished to kick Meng Zhan to death, a prodigal thing, and the old man dared to do his best while he was still alive.
Over the years, Meng Dangsheng is afraid that those old brothers will call. Although few of them are alive, the only ones who are alive always send some news from time to time, which makes him worried and proud. Thinking about these things Years of worry and miss, Meng Dangsheng secretly sighed, he is already this age, how many years can he live?The sons are all good, but they are good, they all have their own homes, if they are gone, who can take good care of their little Ba?It was because of this kind of thinking that Meng Zhan told himself that he liked men, although he was angry, but his age was here, and he admitted it after beating up the bastard, and the debt was all owed to him.
The worry in Meng Dang's eyes warmed Meng Zhan's heart, and he smiled at his father for the first time after returning home, "I'm not sick, I'm fine, don't worry about me, I want my uncle to give my father a smile." Take a look at Tao, some time ago he went on a mission to save and hurt people."
Meng Dang breathed a sigh of relief and then brought it up again. Although Meng Zhan didn't say anything, he knew that the bastard brought him home because he meant to be sure and let himself see, although he privately After observing it, the kid on the opposite side is not enlightened, but he also knows what kind of bastard he is, and he will definitely fool him in the end. If he is not seriously ill, Meng Zhan will not bring him back. The eldest brother is three years older than himself, how much He hasn't seen a doctor for many years. It's not that Meng Zhan doesn't know. Meng Dangsheng looked at Xu Tao carefully, looked at his expression carefully, and frowned slightly. Although he doesn't know how to see a doctor, he has been following his elder brother all these years, and his expression is still the same. It can be seen that Xu Tao seems to be looking good, but there is a deep tiredness hidden between his brows. It is said that a child of this age should not be so tired.
Meng Dang got off the kang, took Xu Tao's hand and walked out, "Go, go to the next door and let your uncle see."
While talking and striding forward, Xu Tao looked at the old man who pulled him away with a grin, and looked back at Meng Zhan, Meng Zhan comforted him to keep up, and patted Xu Tao on the back, "It's okay, just watch look."
Xu Tao nodded, "I know, but I'm actually not sick. It's troublesome if you insist on taking a look."
Meng Dangsheng turned his head and glared at Xu Tao, "What's the trouble, it's all from my family, and that's your uncle." Xu Tao glanced at Meng Dangsheng who continued to turn his head and drag him forward after speaking in confusion, After thinking about it, my family?That's right, aren't you and the captain brothers?Xu Tao, who thought he wanted to understand, shook off the weirdness, and followed Meng Dangsheng out of the courtyard with a smile, and turned directly into another courtyard on the left. The two connected courtyards were about the same size, Xu Tao secretly clicked his lips , Such a big yard is just planting some fruit trees, it's useless.
Xu Tao, who followed Meng Dangsheng directly into the house, saw an old man lying on a rocking chair, with silver hair, long white beard, and long white eyebrows. Although he didn't smile on his face, he was sitting there dangling. It gave people a leisurely and peaceful atmosphere, walked in slowly, and unconsciously became peaceful, Meng Dangsheng pulled Xu Tao to sit on the stool beside the rocking chair, Meng Dangsheng put his head next to Meng Jiansheng, "Brother , Xiaoba is back, and brought a child, you can take a look."
Meng Jiansheng squinted slightly to look at Meng Zhan first, stretched out his hand to make a move, Meng Zhan walked to Meng Jiansheng and squatted aside, automatically placed his wrist beside Meng Jiansheng, Meng Jiansheng put three fingers on Meng Zhan's wrist, After a while, he raised his hand and knocked on Meng Zhan, "Only once." Meng Zhan nodded, "Got it."
Meng Jiansheng withdrew his gaze from Meng Zhan and landed on Xu Tao. The old man's gaze was soft, but Xu Tao felt nervous for some reason. Xu Tao's undisguised nervousness made Meng Jiansheng smile, "Give me your hand. "A soft voice sounded, Xu Tao stretched out his hand quickly, unlike Meng Zhan who put three fingers on his wrist, but one finger, half-opened eyes let Meng Zhan who was standing aside slow down his breathing, and looked nervously at Meng Zhan Jiansheng, it took a long time for Meng Jiansheng to withdraw his hand, sat up straight and looked at Xu Tao, "Tired?"
Xu Tao froze for a moment, then nodded embarrassingly, "A little bit." The complete truth made Meng Jiansheng laugh, "You children, if you don't pay attention to taking care of your body when you are young, you will feel uncomfortable when you are old." After speaking, he looked at Meng Zhan, "Go to the third drawer in the back room and bring a white porcelain vase with orchids."
Meng Zhan agreed, turned around and walked into the house. Xu Tao took a look at Meng Zhan's back, sat obediently beside Meng Jiansheng, and listened to Meng Jiansheng talking about paying attention to his body, taking good care of his body, exercising properly, and reducing mental stress. Don't be too big, think about everything, don't put so much pressure on yourself, Xu Tao nodded obediently, making the Meng party student sitting on the side a little funny, knowing that this child is honest, but he didn't expect to be so honest, people said He listened to whatever and shook his head secretly.
Holding the porcelain bottle and returning to the front room, Meng Zhan saw Xu Tao's obedient nod, a smile flashed in his eyes, walked to Meng Jiansheng, handed the medicine bottle to Meng Jiansheng, Meng Jiansheng took it, and put it in Xu Tao's hand, "Seven pills a day, don't stop, take it for 21 days in a row, and you must pay attention to your body in the future."
Xu Tao agreed, and several people chatted for a while, Meng Dangsheng took the two of them back to his home, checked the time, stood in the yard and yelled that he was hungry, the three of them had dinner, Meng Zhan Taking Xu Tao around, he took a change of clothes and went directly to the backyard. When Xu Tao followed Meng Zhan to a big stone room, he opened the door. Xu Tao was a little surprised by the foggy room. There really was a hot spring.
Meng Zhan turned on the headlights, and Xu Tao saw a large pool of stones in the house. The pool was steaming continuously. Xu Tao walked over and stretched his hands into the water. It was so hot. Xu Tao smiled and looked up at Meng Zhan. "Captain, is it really a hot spring? The water is quite hot."
In the mist, Xu Tao's face was a little bit hazy under the light, Meng Zhan's eyes shrank slightly, and he smiled, and put Xu Tao's clothes in the cabinet beside him, "Xiao Tao, take a good soak in the hot spring, I'll go to the front yard Take a look." After finishing speaking, without waiting for Xu Tao to react, he turned around and left quickly. Meng Zhan, who was standing by the door for a while, slowly raised his footsteps and left slowly, slowly depicting Xu Tao's smiling eyebrows and eyes in the mist. Heaving a sigh of relief, Meng Zhan showed a wry smile, suppressed the sudden desire/desire in his heart, shook his head and walked forward quickly.
The author has something to say:
In September 2014, at the train station in S City, Xu Tao and Meng Zhan, who had returned to their hometown because of Wang Rui's entrance examination, had just walked out of the station. When they saw Li Jianhua waiting outside the station, Xu Tao waved, "Squad leader, this way."
Li Jianhua stretched his neck to look over, saw Meng Zhan first, and then saw Xu Tao in the gap. Looking at the two people carrying luggage and protecting Xu Tao out of the crowd, Li Jianhua smiled, walked forward quickly, took Xu Tao's hand Looking up and down the bag in his hand, Li Jianhua laughed hahaha, "Did you two go home, or came back from famine, why are you carrying so many things?"
Xu Tao turned his head to look at Meng Zhan, took the big plastic bag in Meng Zhan's hand, and smiled helplessly, "My sister prepared it, can you not take it, or my sister will cry, by the way , Is there something wrong with you taking the initiative to pick us up?"
Li Jianhua chuckled, "Let's talk when we get in the car." Xu Tao looked at Li Jianhua's humble smile, resisted the urge to roll his eyes, and followed Meng Zhan out of the station entrance.
Sitting in the car, Li Jianhua was not in a hurry to start the car, and turned to look at Xu Tao, "Old Zhao is talking about friends."
Li Jianhua's words blew up Xu Tao. Zhao Jun is about the same age as Meng Zhan. He hasn't seen anyone he likes in these years. He thought he liked men, but after Xu Tao asked again, he was despised by Zhao Jun. That's when Xu Tao knew It turned out that Zhao Jun wanted to find someone he liked, but these years have passed, and there are so many girls around him, but he didn't see Zhao Jun finding someone he liked. At the end of the trouble, he thought he was going to be a bachelor, but he actually found someone up.
Xu Tao stretched his head to Li Jianhua curiously, "Did you see it?" Li Jianhua nodded triumphantly, "I see, this old Zhao wants to introduce someone to you two, just right, you two don't rush back, come soon It's time for dinner, go back after eating."
Xu Tao glanced at Meng Zhan, Meng Zhan rubbed the top of Xu Tao's head, nodded, "Go and have a look, aren't you curious?"
Xu Tao grinned, and nodded vigorously, "I'm curious, I thought he wasn't going to look for it."
A few people rushed to the hotel that Zhao Jun had reserved. On the way, Li Jianhua introduced the situation of the woman. Shi Xin, a university teacher, was 30 years old, and her hometown was in the province of J. She was a typical southern girl. Share the taste of Jiangnan water town.
When they arrived at the hotel, the three of Xu Tao had just walked into the box when they saw Zhao Jun holding a cup of hot water and whistling, seeing a few people just saying hello, and handing the water cup in his hand to the woman beside him, Xu Tao took a closer look , nodded secretly, she looked like a woman with a good temper.
One meal, more than two hours, Xu Tao has fully experienced Zhao Jun's concern for Shi Xin, from a dish to a glass of water, everything is properly prepared, making Xu Tao feel sour and toothache, and finally eat After dinner, Xu Tao and Meng Zhan were sent back to the army by Li Jianhua. When they returned home, Xu Tao sat on the sofa and thought of Zhao Jun’s sticky appearance. He felt a toothache. With a smile, he put his arms around Xu Tao's shoulders and buried his head in the crescent of his neck, what a fool.
In fact, Meng Zhan can understand Zhao Jun's concern. After waiting for so many years, it is not easy to meet someone who is completely in line with his heart. Not everyone is as lucky as himself, and he met Kexin early. Moreover, the lover who is completely in line with his own heart has walked by him year after year. Sometimes Meng Zhan is very grateful, very grateful to Xu Tao for appearing in his life early, otherwise, he would go around like Zhao Jun. people wandering.
Xu Tao looked at Meng Zhan lying on his neck with some doubts, "What are you laughing at?"
Meng Zhan looked up at Xu Tao who was full of doubts, bowed his head and kissed, "It's okay, I'm just happy for Zhao Jun. I'm so old to find someone I like, and I think they will get married soon." Xu Tao thought about it for a while, yes, Nodded, "It is estimated that we will get married soon, and then we will follow Zhao Jun to pick up the bride."
Meng Zhan nodded with a smile, put his arms around Xu Tao and listened to Xu Tao rambling about the scene of Xu Yan's marriage before, with a little regret in his heart. Although they have been together for many years, they have never given Xu Tao a wedding that belongs to the two of them. Although his own fool doesn't care, Meng Zhan has regrets in his heart, but these years he also knows that being able to get to where he is today is already the greatest degree of acquiescence. Suppressing that trace of regret, Meng Zhan leaned on the back of the sofa and smiled Looking at the lover under the light, that's it, it's enough to be with each other like this.
