60s Splendid Life

After sending him away, Lu Jin returned home. Seeing his grandfather walking up and down the house, he deliberately stepped a little harder to let the people in the house know that he was back.

Seeing the people inside turning their heads to look at him when they heard the footsteps, Lu Jin quickly forced a smile on his face, called out grandpa, went in and asked people to sit down, poured water for them to drink, and sat down too, Then he asked, "Grandpa, do you think we're all right here?"

"I asked the carpenter in our village to make the furniture for the house. I was in a hurry, so I ordered a few simple pieces of furniture and sent them over. The toys at home belonged to Chenchen and Xiaobao, Xiaobao. Lian's temperament is relatively quiet, and she doesn't like to play with the two boys very much. There is also that easel, which was made a while ago, and they sometimes draw pictures on it when they come back from school."

"I heard from your uncle that you separated from the family, right?" Yu Wenchang learned from his son that his grandson separated from the family, but he didn't know if there was any reason for this.But thinking about driving the grandchildren out to live outside after the death of the son, it is conceivable that it must be the problem of the elders.

When his daughter was discussing marriage, the two families met a few times. At that time, his impression of Lu's father and Lu's mother was not very good. He only knew that his daughter had chosen such a man, and it was not easy for them to stop her from marrying.Later, something happened to their family, and the two families broke off contact. They hadn't contacted each other for so many years. Except for the dead son-in-law, he didn't know the rest of the Lu family very well.

"Yes, there are too many people in the old house, and the few families living together have a lot of things to do. It would be better if we separated." Lu Jin did not tell his grandfather that they and the people in the old house Naturally, he didn't have the idea of ​​taking his grandfather to meet his grandparents.

Yu Wenchang nodded, agreeing with this point. Since he came in just now, he has looked at the room where his grandson lives. There are a lot of things in the room. It can be seen that the children should be living well in the countryside. of.

Just remembering that every time the elder grandson went to visit him, he would hide his family affairs and give him so many things, Yu Wenchang blamed the grandson in his heart. You went to see grandpa and didn’t tell grandpa about it, and you always sent so many things to grandpa, where did you get the money to buy so many things and send them to grandpa?”

"That's not afraid of you, grandpa..." Meeting his grandpa's stare at him, Lu Jin quickly swallowed the remaining words back into his stomach, and said with a flattering expression on his face: "Grandpa, don't be angry, I'm Thinking about what I will tell you slowly, grandpa, how can I expect my uncle to come back suddenly and take you back."

"So you found out that you couldn't hide it, so you said that, right?" Seeing his grandson smiling flatteringly at him, Yu Wenchang couldn't bear to be angry with his grandson anymore.

Lu Jin rubbed his nose and smiled stupidly. How could he find that he couldn't hide it? It was his uncle who had investigated the matter clearly and even came to the door himself. He had no choice but to recruit quickly.As for how the money came from, he knew that he might not be able to hide it from his family in the future, so he confessed to his grandfather: "I have work points for doing things in the tofu workshop, and the rice grain in exchange for the work points I earn is basically It is enough for the family to eat. I occasionally do a small business outside, and I can make a little money..." He said the latter sentence a little softly.

It's a little tricky to do a small business.

Yu Wenchang, who has only been out of the labor camp for a few days, knows that it is illegal to do business outside. This grandson is so courageous, how dare he do business outside?He suddenly widened his eyes and looked at the grandson.

"Grandpa, don't get excited. I don't do this every day, I only do it once in a while." As for the fact that he can earn money that others can't earn in the previous year's class, Lu Jin doesn't intend to tell His grandpa's, so as not to scare the old man, he was a little scared to see his grandpa right now.

"You...you child!" Yu Wenchang didn't know what to say.

Lu Jin reached out and touched his nose, lowered his head with an expression of "you scold me, I will never retaliate".

Of course, Yu Wenchang was reluctant to scold his grandson, but when he remembered that he had been in the labor camp for more than ten years, he was worried about what would happen to his grandson, so he could only persuade his grandson earnestly: "We can't do things that violate the law. , you are still young, living an honest life is better than anything else."

"Grandpa, don't worry, I'm usually very careful when I do this, and I won't do it when I save enough money to take Xiaobao to the doctor." Lu Jin was more afraid of being caught than anyone else, he didn't expect that Going to be reformed in a labor camp, he is no longer a carefree person in this life. He always thinks about the children at home in everything he does. Now he has a grandfather and uncle.

Thinking of his uncle who seemed extremely upright, Lu Jin still didn't forget to remind his grandfather, "Grandpa, please don't tell my uncle about this." He was not worried that his uncle would scold him, He was just worried that if something happened to him in the future, his uncle would be involved.

Yu Wenchang stared at his grandson, and almost rolled his eyes out. This brat let his younger siblings hide from him before, did he discuss it with his younger siblings in the same way?But when he thought about his little grandson's feet, if he didn't cure them, he might not be able to get better in this life, so the old man asked with some concern: "Can Xiaobao's feet be cured?"

"There should be a chance. Let's see if I can take him to the Shanghai stock market next year to see what the doctor says." Lu Jin told the results of the treatment he had brought the child to Uncle Liu this year. the old man.

But he knows that the child's foot deformity, if he wants to get a thorough treatment and improvement, it must be cured through surgery. He is not worried that he will not earn so much now. Money to take my younger brother to see a doctor, anyway, money has been earning, sooner or later it will be enough.He is more worried about whether the current medical equipment and doctor's technology can achieve the effect he wants. Of course, he has not talked to his grandfather about this.

Yu Wenchang heaved a sigh of relief when he heard that he could be cured, but then he thought that he could do nothing to help his grandchildren now, so he couldn't help but sighed a little: "It's a pity that our family has nothing now, otherwise grandpa can still be cured." Help you. Grandpa is a useless person now, he can't do anything, and he needs someone else to support him."

Back then, their family's things were robbed and confiscated, and there was nothing left.

Thinking of the hard work of generations of their old Yu family that had been wiped out, he felt resentment in his heart, but what about resentment, he would never return those things.

"Grandpa, don't talk like that. If you can sit in front of us, we will be very happy. We don't bring things like money with us when we are born or die. We can just earn it after we lose it." Lu Jin also knew that in the reform carried out in the early years, many rich and noble people were reduced to prisoners overnight, and they must have nothing at home.

But compared to money, he thinks people are more important.

The grandfather and grandson sat at home for a while, talked for a while, and drank a glass of water. Lu Jin took his grandfather out to the elementary school in their village.

When they arrived, the school was still in class, and the teacher was standing on the podium giving lectures.

The first class is for the lower grade math class, and the second class is for the upper grade math class.When the teacher taught the senior class, he knew that the lower grade students could not understand, so he assigned homework to the lower grade students and asked them to complete it in the classroom.

At this time, many students in the classroom were honestly doing their homework, and some students were playing without doing their homework. For example, Lu Haochen and the male students next to him were just playing and did not do their homework well.

Several boys took out some living little sparrows from their schoolbags.

Lu Haochen who didn't have a sparrow looked at other people's sparrows with a salivating face, he didn't finish his homework, and was stretching out his hand to play with the sparrows brought by others.Lu Daqing is a good friend who is generous. Seeing that Chenchen likes it, he gave the sparrow to his good friend to play with.

So when Lu Jin came with their grandfather, what he caught was the picture of the children playing with the birds with their heads down.

Lu Jin: ... I agreed that I would save money to send you to study. How about you study hard?Is that how you read it?Playing with birds in class?It was also seen by the grandfather who came to see them for the first time.Thinking of how every time I went to see my grandpa, I would say that my younger siblings were serious about studying. Wasn't this slapping him in the face in front of my grandpa? !

Compared with her younger brother who plays with birds in class, Lu Qinglian is much more serious in class, and after a year of self-study, she can now follow the courses of the second and third grades, so the teacher is teaching the students in the second and third grades During the time, she would take lessons by the way.

Sensing two gazes on her, Lu Qinglian felt a little strange, turned her head to play in the direction she was looking at, and saw two people standing outside the window looking at them, her eyes suddenly widened, and she turned to look Seeing that her elder brother was playing with birds, she quickly pushed him away, pouted her mouth and said, "Stop playing!"

"?"What are you doing?Lu Haochen felt that his sister was weird, turned around and saw his brother and grandfather came at some time, and then looked at the bird he was holding in his hand, he quickly stuffed it into the belly of the table, Trying to hide evidence of not being serious in class.

Even little Bao'er was lying on the table and writing seriously.

"Xiaobao, brother and grandpa are here!"

Pushed by her brother, little Bao'er turned her head and saw that it was really her brother coming. As for the grandfather next to her, the child didn't pay much attention.Seeing his brother coming, the child was a little anxious to go down.

Lu Haochen turned to the teacher who was writing on the blackboard on the podium, took a look, slid down from the stool, picked up his brother and ran out the back door.
