Chapter 136

I look at Qiutong, she is looking at everything around with joy and novelty.

"Ah - Hi - EH - yo -" accompanied by the crisp sound of the whip, uncle's rough and crazy voice suddenly sounded in the wind and snow: "Oh - ah - Ho - OH -"

Qiu Tong and I were attracted by uncle's voice. We looked ahead and listened to uncle's high pitched singing.

"Ride on the grassland, my horse, hurry up The eagle in the sky fly fast, I follow closely on the grassland Happy flowers are in full bloom, the people in my heart are waiting for me to return Don't worry, beautiful girl. Your relatives are returning home. " Uncle's high singing is floating in the wilderness

My uncle doesn't speak Chinese very fluently, but when I sing songs in Chinese, my pronunciation is very clear and smooth.

Qiutong and I listened attentively. The song sounds very touching, even desolate and sad.

Qiu Tong listens attentively, with a moving expression on her face and even something crystal clear in the corner of her eyes.

At the moment, I deeply realize that there are countless moves in life, but there is one kind of move called vicissitudes, and another kind of move called kindness.

When it was getting dark, we finally arrived at Yunduo's home. At this time, the herdsmen's new village was quiet and there was no sign of people. From the little lights in the window, we could know that the herdsmen were at home.

The smoke from the chimney on the roof tells us that everyone is cooking dinner at the moment.

The wind and snow are still raging, and the cold wind is flying between the gaps of the houses, making strange roars.

In front of Yunduo's house, uncle reined in his horse: "Shh -" and the plow stopped at Yunduo's house.

The light of cloud house is on, and the chimney on the roof is smoking.

"Here we are," said uncle, jumping off the plow and turning to us, patting the snow on his body at the same time.

Qiutong and I started to climb down the plough and take down our luggage.

Uncle took the lead in walking to the door of Yunduo's house, and cheerfully called out: "old brother, here's a guest - here's a distinguished guest -"

with uncle's shouting, the door opened, and Yunduo's parents appeared at the door. Seeing us, they were stunned. Then they were pleasantly surprised and invited us into the house.

As soon as I entered the room, I felt the warmth. The fire was burning in the middle of the room.

"Ah, Mr. Qiu, Xiaoyi, you Why did you come all of a sudden? Look at the snow. " Mother Yunduo asked us to sit down and pour us hot milk tea.

"Auntie, we're on a business trip through Tongliao. We'll just drop in and see you two old men!" Qiutong said to Yunduo's mother with a smile, and then pointed to uncle: "it's snowy. We can't find our way. Thanks to uncle, we're here Uncle's house is by the road. "

"Come on, brother - have a cigarette - it's hard for you on this snowy day!" Cloud father affectionately handed a cigarette.

"Ha ha, no, I can't get used to that cigarette. TAIPINGHE, I still like to smoke this --" my uncle grinned brightly. He took out a pipe of dry tobacco from his arms, put it into a cigarette bag, picked up a pot of dry tobacco, lit it on the fire, and smoked it tastefully. He said: "these two kids are good people from the city. On the train, my daughter-in-law took her little granddaughter I didn't get a seat. They provided a soft berth for me... "

Qiutong and I laughed. Qiutong said, "don't mention it, uncle. Anyway, the shop is empty."

"Anyway, there are not many good people like you these days!" Da Bo said happily: "when my daughter-in-law says you are coming here, I have no choice!"

Yunduo's parents nodded, and Yunduo's mother then asked us, "ah, Mr. Qiu, it's almost new year's day. Is Yunduo coming back for the holiday? All year round, her father and I are at home, looking forward to reuniting together these days. His brother batel is expected to have a holiday, and he is expected to be home in these two days. "

Qiutong and I looked at each other, then Qiutong laughed, looked at the cloud parents and said: "uncle, aunt, cloud won't come back for the new year this year!"

"Ah - what's the matter?" Yunduo's parents looked at Qiutong unexpectedly.

"Well, it is." Qiu Tong thought it over for a while, summoned up courage and said: "during the Spring Festival, the company has to arrange people to work overtime. Cloud is now the middle-level manager of the company. She is in charge of the part where someone is on duty. She can't get away from it."

"Oh..." Cloud father seems to understand, some regret to say: "is so ah!"

"On duty for the Spring Festival," mother Yunduo said with an extremely disappointed expression on her face, "how could this happen, alas You say this wench, how early don't talk to the home, but she hasn't called home for a long time

At this time, Yunduo's father said, "old lady, don't nag me. What children do outside is big business, public business. It's not like at home. We can't drag children behind in their career What's more, the telephone line in this village has been cut off by the wind since the first heavy snow in winter. It hasn't been repaired. How can the child call back? Even if you want to make a phone call, you have to wait until the telephone line is repaired... "

As soon as I heard it, I burst out in a cold sweat and looked at Qiutong. My face also showed the expression of lingering fear.At this time, the eldest uncle put in a word and said to Yunduo's mother, "elder sister-in-law, what your family leader says is reasonable. It's a public job for the children to do things outside. We should support the children's career more. My child is also like this. We have to understand that we can't work overtime in the factory for the Spring Festival What's more, if children want to go home, they have plenty of opportunities, and they don't have to spend the new year

Uncle and cloud father said so, cloud mother speechless, turned away, wipe the corner of the eye.

Pitiful mother's heart in the world, mother worries when her son travels thousands of miles! Looking at the cloud mother's look, my heart surged up with an unspeakable pain.

Qiu Tong clenched her lower lip tightly and looked at cloud mother in a dazed way. Her eyes looked envious and desolate.

Then, Qiutong suddenly laughed and said, "uncle, aunt, although Yunduo didn't come back, she asked us to bring back some things for you. They are new year's products from the company."

With that, Qiutong got up, bent down to open the box and began to take things out.

Qiu Tong bought a lot of things, including two bottles of Erguotou for uncle, four bottles of Beijing Erguotou in fine packaging, and two boxes of Xinghai specialty - Liaoshen, two white scale fish, two large yellow croaker, as well as some meat products and dried fruits

Qiu Tong took out all the things in the bag and put them on the dining table. Everyone was dazzled.

"Oh, this child has been selling goods for so many years. They are all rare and precious things:" father cloud said, "these things are worth a lot of money..."

"Ha ha, it's just company benefits. There's more." With that, Qiutong took out a big, bulging envelope from her bag and handed it to Yunduo's father: "uncle, this is the money Yunduo asked us to bring back. This is part of her usual savings and the company's year-end bonus It's 30000 yuan in total. Keep it

"Ah - the boy brought back so much money!" Yunduo's father was surprised and said, "in the past, her salary was only more than 20000 yuan a year. Except for eating and drinking, she could bring home less than 10000 yuan. I've never heard of any bonus. How can there be so many this year?"

Cloud mother also with a surprised expression.

Qiu Tong's face was a little red. He seemed to be not used to lying. He didn't speak for a moment.

I'm afraid Qiutong will show up, so I hastily said, "uncle, aunt, Yunduo is now the middle-level leader of the company. His position is higher than before, and his income is naturally more. In addition, this year, the company has good benefits and more bonuses."

"Oh..." Cloud father nodded and gave the envelope to cloud mother. Cloud mother took it carefully and suddenly gave me a deep look.

My heart trembled, and suddenly remembered that when Yunduo's parents went to Xinghai to see Yunduo coming back, I slipped the 15000 yuan into Yunduo's father's coat pocket. I know that when Yunduo's parents come back, they will definitely see the money. Now Yunduo's mother suddenly gives me a deep look. What do you mean?

My heart can't help but feel uneasy.

Fortunately, mother cloud just took a deep look at me, and then walked into the inner room.

My heart calmed down for a while.

At this time, the uncle said to Yunduo's father, "brother, you are very happy. You have such a capable and filial daughter. Besides, your baby is also very lucky to have such a good boss. This baby really can't see that it's the boss of a company. It's very capable..."

With that, uncle looked at Qiutong with admiration. Yunduo's father nodded: "yes, qiuzong is very capable and cares about my baby. The progress of this baby is due to qiuzong's care..."

Qiu Tong embarrassed to smile, said: "uncle, uncle, you flatter me! My work is just because of the support of my good brothers and sisters like cloud, so that I can make some achievements. In fact, the credit is everyone's. I should thank them... "

Uncle ha ha laughs, knocks the cigarette pot on the upper of the shoe, and then yells to the inner room: "old sister-in-law, bring the wine quickly. I'm not welcome to come to your house for the first time. I'm begging for the wine --"

"ah, here we are!" Mother Yunduo agreed to come out of the inner room. She wiped the corners of her eyes with her hand and said with a smile, "big brother, you and these two children are our guests today. I'll give you something to eat and drink."

With that, mother cloud went into the kitchen.

Qiutong stood up: "Auntie, I'll give you a hand."

Said, autumn Tong also entered the kitchen.

Soon, a rich dinner with typical Mongolian flavor was ready, and everyone sat cross legged on the warm Kang, ready to start.

Outside the window, the cold wind, wrapped in snowflakes, beat the lattice, and the indoor lights are bright, warm, forming a strong contrast.

Cloud Dad took up a bowl of mare's milk wine and sang a wine song.

Everyone is holding the wine bowl, looking at the sincere and honest expression of cloud dad, listening to the old and vicissitudes of the song.

Then, we hold the wine bowl together and drink in a big bowl.

Then, uncle holding the wine bowl, and singing a toast song, the voice is still so hoarse and rough, with the grassland people's strong bold.

Qiutong and I listened to the most beautiful song in the world with a moving expression. We drank strong horse milk wine bowl by bowl, and ate all kinds of cheese snacks and mutton with a slight smell.Looking at these simple herdsmen with happy and satisfied expression on their faces, thinking of the frustrations and experiences since my bankruptcy and lovelorn, as well as the scenes I saw, heard and felt, I suddenly felt the most beautiful and primitive thing in the world, and felt the true meaning of happiness. What is happiness? Ordinary!

Think of a sentence: the world's most eternal happiness is ordinary, the most long-term possession of life is to cherish!
