Wu Tao didn't return to the city that night. He was really worried about the old man.
In his previous life, the old man died in his second year of technical secondary school. In those days, he had a strange temper and had a lot of contradictions with his family. Although I was more than 80 when I left, I always felt depressed.
Therefore, in the past two years, Wu Tao has been trying to make family conditions better, which is more or less out of this consideration.
But now the family conditions are good, but there are good troubles.
After all, when people are old, they always look at everything with pessimism. Especially in this festival time, what they consider is not the joy of children and grandchildren around their knees, but the lack of one in such a festival.
The next day is new year's Eve. Early in the morning, Wu Tao wakes up with the sound of firecrackers. From the sound of firecrackers, we can see that life in the village is much better than in previous years.
Rubbing his bleary eyes, he went out of the door, but saw a large group of old and young men around the new crown.
"It's said that the car is worth 500000. I can't spend it all my life..."
"Isn't it? I don't know if I can earn a wheel all my life? Alas... "
"It's said that this car belongs to Lao Wu's son. If so, doesn't Lao Wu earn more?"
After all, in the traditional view of rural areas, it's ridiculous that sons earn more than Laozi. So this group of people made such a solemn inference that there was nothing wrong, nothing wrong at all!
"Now Lao Wu is turning over. When I worked with Lao Wu on the Grand Canal, I knew he was not an ordinary person..."
"It's up to you! I saw it when the production team did a lot of work. "
Xiaojiang came out of nowhere, led Dahei into the crowd, crossed his hands, swaggered and said, "you all know a fart. My father doesn't earn as much as my brother!"
The onlookers of the villagers, of course, did not believe it. They touched Xiaojiang's head and said, "you little boy, don't talk nonsense. Be careful that your father won't give you lucky money for the New Year!"
Black egg was angry and immediately stood up and said, "don't believe it, what Xiaojiang said is true!"
For a time, the two children soon became the target of public criticism. Poor two children's stupid mouth, where did you say the gossip of the surrounding villagers.
Finally, Xiaojiang jumped completely, and black egg's face became darker and darker.
After washing, Wu Tao saw that the two children and the villagers were angry. He then walked out with a smile as a coolie to paste Spring Festival couplets.
"Brother, why didn't you tell them? Let them see more! " After pasting the couplet for most of the day, Xiaojiang still couldn't bear his inner anger. He wiped a mouthful of paste and tasted it on his tongue.
Hey, it tastes really good.
Then one mouth, two mouth, three or four mouth, five mouth, six mouth, seven or eight mouth in the twinkling of an eye. When Wu Tao wanted to brush the paste again, he was completely stupid.
Just now there was more than half of the pot full of cooked paste. In the twinkling of an eye, there was less than one-third left.
Look again, all around Xiaojiang's mouth are sticky marks that have no time to erase.
Pity himself. He worked hard for ten minutes to make paste. He went so far as to get into the troublemaker's stomach.
Wu Tao grabbed the little paste left, raised his foot and kicked, "can you take care of this mouth? Did you eat less at home, or did you wear less clothes, so hungry that you even ate paste? "
Xiaojiang dodged dexterously, swept his tongue dexterously, swept all the residues around his mouth into his mouth, and said, "brother, what's in your paste, so sweet?"
Wu Tao really couldn't cry or laugh. "It's just fine flour and white flour. By the way, I found the wrong white flour pocket at the beginning and added half a bowl of corn flour in it by mistake."
"No wonder..." before he finished, Xiaojiang ran away without a shadow.
When Wu Tao finished pasting all the Spring Festival couplets and window flowers inside and outside, he found that Xiaojiang was holding a frying pan and leaning on the side of the wheat straw pile, burping in all directions.
There are still some traces of unclean food in the frying pan. Dahei is licking hard and licking all the paste on Xiaojiang's hands and face.
Seeing this, Wu Tao couldn't help laughing.
At that moment, the camera came from the house and photographed the scene of harmony between man and dog.
In the main room, the old man looked the same. He was accompanying Zhang Huilan to prepare paper money for ancestor worship and burning paper.
Year after year, ancestors are the most unforgettable.
Wu Tao took the camera and pressed the shutter everywhere. Unknowingly, the film at home soon ran out. It happened that at this time, black egg held his cell phone high and ran out.
"Brother Tao, your phone."
When I received the call, it was an Rong. As soon as I got through, my tone was very hurried and said, "come on, sister man has been crying. I can't persuade you."
Cheng man is still in the month. If he always cries like this, he will surely fall into trouble.
Tears in the wind or something will be accompanied by ills for a lifetime in the future. At that moment, Wu Tao did not dare to neglect. He resolutely put down his mobile phone and patted song Guanghui, who was dozing in the car, and said, "let's go to the city."
Song Guanghui is the first time to start ten generations of crowns. He wants to open F1 all the way. He can't listen to Wu Tao's words repeatedly urging him not to hurry.
So a quarter of an hour later, Wu Tao arrived at the new residence of Cheng man's mother and son.
This is a house with two bedrooms and one living room. Although the area is small, it can be compared with many working families. It is already very good.
Cheng man's head was wrapped in a towel. His eyes were red and speechless. Xiaoxiaotian seemed to feel his mother's sadness and cry intermittently.
An Rong has never seen such a battle. In addition, the nanny hired by her family has gone home for the new year. She doesn't even have a person to discuss.
In these two rooms and one living room, the orphans and widows shed tears together. It's unbearable to look at them.
In contrast, the old man's desolation is really not a big deal.
"Sister man, tell me what happened?" Wu Tao asked patiently. Women in the month of childbirth are sentimental, which makes him want to be impatient.
However, Cheng man was silent and sobbed.
"Is the child missing his father? I'll call Mr. Qiu overseas now, OK?"
During the holidays, Wu Tao first realized that it was probably when sister man thought of thousands of lights, but the three members of her family had to be separated from each other across the ocean and could not be reunited. They were sad in their hearts.
Cheng man shook his head.
Wu Tao and an Rong exchanged eyes, not only not discouraged, but encouraged.
"Do you feel lonely at night and no one will accompany you for the festival? Don't worry, Rongrong and I will accompany you! "
Cheng man still shook his head.
This makes them completely embarrassed, especially Wu Tao, who is a man of two generations, more nervous. As a pregnant woman in confinement, the most taboo is to say nothing, so that she is finally depressed.
If that's the case, I really can't explain to Qiu Xiaotian.
Instead, an Rong frowned and said, "sister man, do you want your children to celebrate the new year with their grandparents?"
Cheng man's figure suddenly stopped. Although I didn't nod for sure, I didn't shake my head. It's enough.
Wu Tao clapped his hands, didn't he? Compared with being unable to get together across the ocean, what makes people more sad is that they are close at hand, but they can't recognize each other
"Sister man, don't worry. Even if Rongrong and I don't celebrate the new year, we will let their grandparents and grandchildren know each other!" Wu Tao vowed to clench his fist.
