60s Splendid Life

Early the next morning, Yu Jun and Zhang Dahe drove to the countryside in a car borrowed from the work unit.Having not been to this place for more than ten years, Yu Jun thought that he had forgotten the way. Who knew that he knew the way when the car drove all the way. way to go.

Yu Jun felt very uncomfortable when he sent his elder sister to marry back then, but when he turned his head, it was already separated from man and nature.But thinking again that they were going to see some little nephews this time, he felt a little bit of anticipation in his heart.

The car drove to the entrance of Lujia Village, and saw many people, Zhang Dahe opened the car door and went down to ask people: "Several old men are sitting and chatting here, may I ask, is there a person named Lu Jin here? "

"You mean Xiaojin? Yes, you go to the tofu shop in front and shout, he is doing his work there." Without mentioning Lu Laogen, someone already remembers that there is a boy in the village who can make tofu. It's called Lu Jin. When the old people sitting under the tree to enjoy the shade heard that they were looking for little master Lu Jin, some old people showed the way.

"Thank you, sir." Zhang Dahe thanked the man, and went forward to find him.

"Who is looking for me?"

Lu Jin, who works in the tofu shop, heard that someone was looking for him, and when he asked if someone he didn't know came to him, he felt a little strange in his heart. When he went outside, he saw a tall and thin man outside the tofu shop. The young man stood there, saw him go out, looked at him with a smile on his face and asked, "Are you Xiao Jin?"

"I am, are you looking for me?" Lu Jin looked at this complete stranger in front of him, making sure that he had never met him before.It's just that the other party called him Xiao Jin, which was a bit too intimate, which made him feel even more strange.

When he saw the young man walking towards him, Zhang Dahe could be sure that this young man was the one they were looking for, because if he took a closer look, he would find that the young man in front of him looked very similar to their boss. , said nephew Uncle Xiao, it seems that this is true.

"Yes, we are looking for you. It's not me looking for you, it's your uncle looking for you." Zhang Dahe pointed back, pointing at the man who got off the car at some point.

Standing by the side of the car, Yu Jun looked at the young man who was looking towards him. Their gazes met in mid-air. He looked at the young man's face and found the shadow of his elder sister from that face. He was sure that this should be This is the nephew he was looking for.

He raised his feet and walked forward for a short distance until he stood in front of the young man, looking down at the short and thin young man, Yu Jun remembered that when his nephew was a few months old, he was only a small boy in his arms. Tuanzi, he came back after being away from home for many years, the little tuanzi he held in his arms had grown to such a big size.A soft light flashed in Yu Jun's eyes when he looked at the young man. He noticed that the people around him were looking at them. He looked at his little nephew and said, "You are Xiao Jin, right? I am your uncle Yu Jun. Can you find a place talk to you?"

uncle?

When he heard the man say that it was his uncle, Lu Jin was stunned for a moment. He knew that they had another uncle, but this uncle hadn't come back for many years, and the original body didn't have any impression of this uncle in his memory. I have never seen this uncle.

But it doesn't look like these two people are liars.Since it was his uncle who came to look for them, of course Lu Jin couldn't refuse to entertain them, and responded: "Okay, you wait here for me, I'll go and tell our captain to come."

Leaving someone to wait for him outside, Lu Jin went over and asked their captain for a leave of absence, took off the apron around his lower body, and went outside.The three got into the car, and he took the man who claimed to be his uncle and drove towards their house.

Seeing that Lu Jin got into the car with two strangers who had never been to their village, and drove into the village, the old people sitting at the entrance of the village saw the car going away, and they all talked curiously behind the two strangers who came just now. Who is the man, but everyone has discussed it for a long time, but no one knows.

***

The car stopped at the entrance of the alley leading into their house, and the three got out of the car. Lu Jin led the two of them to their house, opened the door with the key he was carrying, and invited them in.

"This is where you live?" Yu Jun followed his nephew into the yard, and saw that the palm-sized yard was neatly tidied up and vegetables were planted in it. As soon as they entered, two geese came over and saw them Just open your mouth to bite them.

Before he could make a move, the little nephew grabbed the goose by its neck and pushed the goose away, raising his hand to hit the goose: "Don't bite people indiscriminately, beat you!"

"Goose, geese..." Two big geese were caught in the palm of the owner, and their two long necks retracted, not daring to talk to others.

After threatening the big goose, Lu Jin turned around and explained to the two people who followed him in: "This is a goose raised at home. It doesn't usually bite people. Maybe it's because you haven't been here before." He was a little embarrassed later.But with him here, the two big geese did not dare to come forward to bite, and ran away one after the other.

Zhang Dahe came in with a lot of things in his hands, and secretly looked at the small courtyard. He saw that vegetables were planted in the courtyard, two geese and chickens were raised, and some firewood was piled under the eaves. , it looks much better than the small rural courtyards they have seen in some places they have been to.After entering the door, he handed the things in his hand to his little nephew and said, "Your uncle bought this for you."

"Uncle, you are really spending too much money. In fact, you don't need to buy these. You have everything at home." Lu Jin didn't know what the bags were packed in. He opened the door of the room and put the things inside. On a table, ready to clean up later.

Yu Jun followed into the house, looked at the hut, and saw that the things inside were neatly packed, and the kang inside should be a sleeping place.

"This is a place we borrowed from the village. We will live here for the time being. Come and sit in the house, uncle. The second sister and Chenchen Xiaobao are going to school, and they won't be back from school until later." Lu Jin After putting the things away, he moved two chairs for people to sit on, and poured two glasses of water for people to drink. He also sat down on the opposite chair and asked, "Uncle, when did you come back?"

"It's been a few days since I've been back. I went to pick up your grandpa." Yu Jun took a sip of the water, held the cup in his hand, looked at the nephew in front of him with a pair of deep eyes, and said that he went to pick up his father. Tell nephew.

"Pick up grandpa and come out?" Is that what he thought?A hint of surprise flashed in Lu Jin's eyes, and then he couldn't believe it.

"Well, that's what you think. I took your grandpa out of the labor camp. Now your grandpa lives in your uncle's unit and lives with him." Yu Jun saw the light in his little nephew's eyes. Looking at him, with the first smile on his face when he came here, he told his little nephew: "I heard about you guys from my father, I know that you often visit him, and you have given him a lot of things. Go, here uncle would like to thank you for helping uncle take care of grandpa when uncle was away."

"This... this is what I should do. Grandpa is our grandpa, so I don't care." Facing his uncle's praise, Lu Jin lowered his head in embarrassment, knowing that their grandpa was picked up by his uncle After that, he was very happy in his heart, and they would not have to travel so far to see their grandfather in the future.And when grandpa comes out of that place, he doesn't have to live such a hard life anymore.

... Just as he was about to ask his uncle why he didn't bring his grandpa along, Lu Jin remembered so many things that happened in their family, and he vaguely guessed why his uncle didn't bring his grandpa along.Faced with his uncle's gaze, Lu Jin hesitated for a moment, and asked uncertainly, "Uncle, do you know?"

Yu Jun looked at this handsome little nephew and asked, "What do you know? Knowing that something happened in your family, why don't you tell your grandfather without telling it?"

"Family matters, I... I don't know how to tell grandpa, so I haven't told grandpa all the time." Lu Jin lowered his head, fingers on his left hand clasped fingers on his right hand. He didn't dare to tell the old man the news at first, so he just I was afraid that this news would hit the old man too hard.

Since his uncle found their home, he must have known about his parents' death.Therefore, Lu Jin couldn't continue to hide it anymore, so he had to tell his uncle about the death of their parents and the fact that he brought his younger brothers and sisters back to the countryside. As for the nasty things with their grandparents, he There was no plan to tell his uncle.

After listening to what his nephew said, Yu Jun felt very guilty in his heart, with an unconcealable pain on his face, "It's all my fault, I can't come back sooner, if I could come back sooner..." If he could come back a year earlier, he would There probably wouldn't be so many things happening in my sister's house, and he was able to help his sister and brother-in-law so that a few nieces and nieces wouldn't become orphans.

"Uncle, I don't blame you for this." Seeing that his uncle took the death of his parents on him, Lu Jin interrupted the man's remorse, and said, "My mother's health has long been bad. Dad, he was an accident, and no one wants to do this."

Yu Jun listened to his nephew's comforting words, but he didn't feel comforted in his heart. Looking at his grown up and still so sensible nephew, he felt relieved and distressed at the same time, "Xiao Jin, thank you for your hard work."

Lu Jin shook his head, and only said "no hard work", these are what he should do.

Sitting face to face, the nephew and uncle were speechless for a while.It was even more difficult for an outsider like Zhang Dahe to interrupt, and there was a sudden silence in the room.

"Meow~" A big yellow cat swaggered in from the door, walked up to the owner's heels and rubbed it twice, then looked up at the cat's face and looked at the two strangers with a pair of green eyes like glass beads.

As soon as Zhang Dahe lowered his head, he faced the cat's eyes, and raised his eyebrows at the big yellow cat.

But the big yellow cat ignored him, and squatted down on the heels of the little master, looking at them as if guarding the little master.
