happy looking back

The young father dare not say that he has seen countless people, but at least "ghosts and snake spirits" can still distinguish one from the other.But as the saying goes: caring will lead to chaos, and my life is related to my life. Dad is watching with wide-eyed eyes with a negative attitude that he would rather believe in something than believe in nothing.

"Old Immortal! As long as I can survive this catastrophe, I will not be afraid of any difficulties. Please guide me!" The young mother looked resolute, as if she dared to wade back and forth inside the mountain of knives and fire.I can't sit still, but don't scare my young mother out of her mind.

"Casting a sage of the Three Purities, and praying to the Taoist temple for seven to seven days by the poor Taoist, can resolve this catastrophe." The fortune-telling Taoist stroked his beard compassionately, and looked at his mother with a "holy" solemnity.This old guy is really cunning, he doesn't want money, but he wants free accommodation and food.

"Father, is grandpa coming back today from a meeting in the county? Grandpa said he would bring me maltose from the county." I looked with satisfaction at the three people in the yard who had different expressions because of what I said.

My mother knew very well that my grandfather was a staunch atheist, and if the old man knew that he practiced feudal superstition at home, he would not immediately "tiger stool", "pepper water" and "cannonball service", so my mother was afraid of grandpa's power tactics , and didn't want to give up the divine skills of the "old fairy".Dad's reaction was very direct, he squeezed the broom in his hand and prepared to coax people.

"A person who respects his father and does great things~~~" People who come out to earn a living always have the ability to see all directions and listen to all directions.Seeing the uneasy look of the young parents, the Taoist fortune-teller immediately sensed that the crisis was approaching.So he pretended to be calm and said Zen machine, his tone was both questioning and affirmative.

"My father is the head of Xiaohe Village, an old party member for more than 30 years—" The helpless mother really wanted to ask the "old fairy" to show his mysterious "predicting the past and the future" secret technique in front of grandpa, so as to completely dispel grandpa. suspicion.

"Your family is blessed by the new Buddha, so don't bother me if you are poor!" The fortune teller pointedly glanced at the portrait of the great man hanging in front of the room facing south, and then hurried to the courtyard regardless of his mother's repeated attempts to persuade him to stay. Run outside the door.

"Peace, the new Buddha?" Watching the Taoist fortune teller run away, my mother turned her head to look at the portrait of the great man in the most prominent position in the main room, momentarily amazed.Now I finally understand why I often see portraits of great men in the homes of some elderly people. It turns out that apart from their great achievements in the history books, great men also have such miraculous encounters.

"If you believe it, there will be, if you don't believe it, there will be nothing!" Dad waved the broom in his hand and swept the fallen leaves under the jujube tree to one place.

"Actually, I saw that Taoist priest running faster than a rabbit just now, so I knew that he was probably a charlatan." After bowing to the portrait in the main room, the mother said helplessly to the father who was sweeping the floor next to him.I always cherish comfort in my heart, and it is not in vain for me to intimidate me under the guise of my grandfather.

"It's just that I'm worried—" Mother looked at me with a sad face, her beautiful eyebrows were twisted into knots, "***mortal wombs are just skins to experience in the world, you said that if the baby lets go of us in the future, we will run to become a baby by ourselves." What should the monk do~~~" My mother's sad accusation immediately shocked me, and I was shocked by electric shocks all over my body.I don't know what I did to make my mother misunderstand that I have a bodhisattva heart that is compassionate and compassionate.Food and sex, I am determined not to be a loner in this life.

"Ahem~~~, Ah Ying—why do you have such an idea?" The father looked at the nervous mother with black lines all over his face.

"Jia Baoyu who became a monk in Dream of the Red Chamber, Li Xiuyuan who was ordained in Jigong Living Buddha, and even Tang Sanzang who went through 81 ordeals in Journey to the West, didn't they go down to experience life in a mortal womb, and then--" The more my mother thought about it, the more I felt very sad. It is possible that I will follow in the footsteps of the ancients, and the eyes looking at me will become more and more sad.Trembling, I cleaned up the twelve color pens on the stone table, planning to move to a quiet nest to "heal my wounds".

"Heping, where are you going?" Mother looked aggrieved as Father put down his broom and rushed into the room.

"Take the book on your bedside table to the kitchen, there is no firewood in the stove recently!" Father rushed into the room in a hurry.After being stunned for a moment, the mother turned into a "Hedong Lion", picked up the broom on the ground and roared angrily, "Peace! If you dare to touch my book, I will never end with you!" Listening to the boring "bang bang" in the room From time to time, the sound was mixed with the pain of my father's screams, and I felt lingering emotion, "A woman who has no talent is a virtue" is not completely unreasonable.

At noon, grandpa came back from a meeting in the county seat and brought home an unexpected guest: Li Gu, Grandpa Li, who had only met once.When did the big guy in Xiaohe village come to ride a military jeep? Outside the courtyard, a lot of old and young men surrounded him, pointing and commenting on this magnificent big guy with four wheels.

Important guests came to the house, and grandma and mother were busy preparing lunch in the kitchen.Grandpa warmly invited Li Gu to sit down in the first seat facing south, and took out a set of exquisite bamboo tea set made by his father when he was 50 years old to greet the guests.This set of tea sets is a handicraft that my father searched all over the bamboo forest in Xiaohe Village, selected high-quality bamboo materials, and took more than three months to complete.

The green tea tray is only about [-] centimeters long and seven or eight centimeters high, with rows of hollow grooves inside.The teapot and teacup are placed on it, the mist is misty, and the fragrance of tea is overflowing, making people feel like they are in a whirling illusion, watching the sunset over the long river with a smile, the wind and the moon in ancient and modern times.Li Guman enviously picked up the teacup on the tea tray. The water in the teacup was as clear as green tea when he pinched it lightly with two fingers.However, on this small and elegant teacup, there are exquisite patterns painted ingeniously: Winter plum is cold and proud; Chunlan is indifferent and elegant; Summer bamboo is tall and bright; Qiuju is unruly.

"Brother Ge is too polite, and he is willing to use such an exquisite and elegant combination tea set." Li Gu fondly stroked the radiant "emerald green" on the surface of the tea set with his belly fingers, and passed the tea cup to his mouth several times Smell it, but can't bear to taste it.

"It's not a rare thing. It's something my second son, Heping, messed around with. I don't drink tea often, so I haven't used it." Grandpa waved his hands modestly, but his wrinkled eyelids were as happy as blooming daisies .There is no father who is not proud of his children's achievements, even if these achievements are far from enough in his opinion.

"Others laugh at me for being crazy, but I laugh at others for not being able to see through it. It's not the tomb of heroes in Wuling, where there are no flowers and no wine to hoe the fields. I wish you good health and all the best. The signature is, the unfilial son Ge Heping bows down!" Li Gu will Remove the teacup and teapot on the tea tray, and carefully read Tang Yin's "Peach Blossom Temple" on the bamboo weaving inside the tea tray.

My father took pains to make the birthday present comedic, writing the half-poetry for the first time in an exaggerated but expressive fat font.When singing this famous poem that is bohemian but faintly frustrated, the image of an old farmer with a wide body and a fat body and a leisurely life seems to appear in his mind.Let people add a bit of indifferent feelings of picking chrysanthemums under the eastern fence and seeing Nanshan leisurely.

"Okay! Good writing! Good poetry! Tea is even better!" Li Gulian said four good words before he reluctantly took a sip of the tea, using the tip of his tongue to savor this fresh and refined gift from nature.Lying behind the door and looking at Grandpa Li Gu who was drowsy and shaking his head in the mist, I had to wonder if white powder was mixed in this bitter tea.

"What is the sneaky cat doing there? It's not polite at all!" Grandpa scolded me who was listening in the corner behind the door with a straight face.Knowing that he was caught, he flung himself into Grandpa's arms with a shy face to have fun.

"After a year, I grew up by one year, but I became more and more unruly." Grandpa said sternly, but he held me tightly in his arms, lest I accidentally bump into the corner of the table and chair .

"Baby, do you remember me?" Li Gu took my little hand and pulled me to his side, looking at me with a reassuring and warm smile.Whoever I forget, I can't forget this grandpa Li Gu who spent a lot of money. The pen he gave me is still treasured in my private treasury.

"Grandpa Li!" The crisp and sweet childish voice called "Grandpa Li", making the eyes of the middle-aged man in front of him narrow into a gap, and he picked me up from the ground and put me directly on him swaying on his thigh.Looking at Grandpa Li Gu, who is in his early forties, compared to the calm and gentle three months ago, he seems to have a more youthful spirit.

63 Li Gu's Mobilization

"You know each other?" Grandpa looked at the intimacy between me and Grandpa Li Gu with a puzzled expression, but he didn't catch the slightest bit of effort.Although it lacks the chicness of literati and elegant guests, the tea making, washing and pouring done by grandpa cleanly and without sloppiness are full of unique tea fun.

"A few months ago, when I was in Shancheng County, I watched your art performance in Xiaohe Village. It was very creative and lively. At that time, I wanted to visit the former residence of Comrade Ge Tenglong, but I couldn't do it due to the rush of time. Today a See, I understand why Xiaohe Village can produce such a hero with both civil and military skills." Grandpa Li Gu glanced at the simple and old tables, chairs and beams in the living room, and his tone was full of deep memory and reverence for a deceased martyr .

"Grandpa Li, why?" I bit my finger and asked in bewilderment.Originally, I expected my grandpa to explain, but when it comes to this old ancestor, apart from the modesty of "where, where", grandpa can't help but look sad.

"Beautiful mountains and rivers, outstanding people
