Chapter 5
On Saturday morning, Wang Pengze came early and did not let Zhuzi go out. He brought tools and bought accessories, and repaired the bicycle for Zhuzi in the open space in front of Tongzilou. Wrapping the girders, he directed the pillars to take emery cloth to clean the rusty places, and he was busy for nearly two hours.In the end, Wang Pengze took a rag and wiped it carefully. He took a few steps back and saw that the broken bike was gone, and what was parked in the open space in front of Tongzilou was almost another half-new bicycle.Wang Pengze was so tired that he was sweating profusely. He wiped his face with the back of his hand, leaving a black line of oil on his forehead. He looked at the pillar, and both of them laughed.
Wang Pengze asked Zhuzi, "Is it okay?" Zhuzi laughed and said, "I'm kidding you, take a snapshot and look in the mirror." Zhuzi brought a wet towel and helped Wang Pengze wipe off the stains on his forehead carefully.
After repairing the bicycle, I went to learn to ride a bicycle.On the school playground, Wang Pengze supported the back seat of the bicycle, took care of the pillars and rode slowly around the playground, then let go and said: "It's too slow to learn like this, you should practice boldly, don't be afraid of falling, falling If it breaks, I will carry you back." "Are you really willing to carry me?" Zhuzi said, "I didn't want to fall, but in order for you to carry it, it seems that I have to fall several times." Zhuzi has long legs and the car is crooked. When I fell down, I could put my feet on the ground in time. If I fell a few times, the bicycle fell down, and I was fine.Zhuzi sighed unceasingly, frowned and said, "My heart hurts so much, it took so long to cultivate like this." Wang Pengze shook his head and smiled, leaning his back on the basketball hoop and watching Zhuzi ride crookedly round and round, gradually getting better and better. Getting more proficient.
During the summer vacation, the school was empty, and this lonely playground only belonged to the two of them at the moment.Wang Pengze feels that he likes to just look at Zhuzi like this. There are some people in this world who will never bore you, because they always have new surprises for you to discover and appreciate. Zhuzi is just such a person.
Wang Pengze looked at his watch and saw that it was already 11:[-], so he shouted to Zhuzi: "Okay, let's practice again in the afternoon, and now go home for dinner." Just after he finished speaking, he saw Zhuzi collapsed on the playground with his bicycle.Wang Pengze hurried over and saw Zhuzhu sitting on the grass with his legs pressed down by the bicycle.
Zhuzi raised his face in frustration, and said to Wang Pengze: "Uncle, you really hit the spot, you can carry me back." Wang Pengze looked around suspiciously, not even checking Zhuzi's injuries, and said with a smile: "You fell It’s really a place to fall, such a big playground, only this palm-sized area has grass.” Zhuzi turned his head and looked around, and sure enough, he had to stand up with a smile, and said, “Uncle, let me carry you.” Why should I ask you to memorize it?" "Let's memorize it." Zhuzi persuaded, "You think, when you get old and can't walk, you will need me to memorize it sooner or later, so let me practice it now." Wang Pengze was caught by this He was a little dazed when he said the words, and seeing that Zhu Zhu had turned his back to him, bent his knees and lowered his body to wait, he didn't understand why, suddenly he felt a little uncomfortable, so he raised his foot and kicked him lightly. On Zhu Zi's buttocks, he said coldly: "Stop making trouble, let's go."
In the afternoon, Wang Pengze brought Wang Xiaochuan to the old lady's house, but he didn't see Zhuzi. The old lady told him that Zhuzi went out to sell popsicles after eating. What should I do if I start a big business." The old lady said: "Don't keep talking about Zhuzi, why don't you stay at home with Yao Min on weekends?" "He's with Yao Rui." Wang Pengze explained, "I'm just next to him. It will upset her." The old lady was not happy when she heard this, and she said in a more serious tone: "But you are husband and wife, you can't always be like this. You are older than Yao Min, you have to bear the main responsibility." "Mom. "Wang Pengze was a little dejected. He has been upset recently, and now he is determined to speak his mind.
"If you have to think about being older than her every day, if you rely on guilt or guilt to survive, I don't know what is the point of such a married life." Tears flashed.Wang Pengze stood up to get a towel, and after watching the old lady wipe away her tears, he stretched out his hands again, held the old lady's hand on the table, and simply finished speaking.
"Mom, we are actually deceiving ourselves about some things. You are so old and you are alone again. You should live with me. But look at Yao Min's attitude. After four years of marriage, it is only the first year. I've met you several times, our two homes are so close, but I guess you don't even know what she looks like now." "You're complaining, you're not looking for a reason." The old lady shed a lot of tears and wiped her face. Go, continue to persuade:
"Mom can see that you don't want to get married at all, and you still can't forget Huizhen. But people can't compete with the times. When you and Huizhen meet that era, you have to accept your fate. You have to change yourself. If you continue to be paranoid, you will only end in a bleak end. Huizhen is better than you in this regard." Wang Pengze thought that Lin Huizhen's ending might be more bleak than him, but argued, "Mom, I didn't think about Huizhen anymore." "You have a stubborn mouth, but you can't lie to your heart, you still can't forget." The old lady said to Wang Pengze almost pleadingly:
"Pengze, the happiest thing for my mother in her later years is to see you have a happy family. There is nothing that cannot be solved. As long as you are willing to put your heart into it, Yao Min will change, and your relationship will gradually improve. Get up. Don't say those things that scare your mother." Wang Pengze nodded, his eyes were wet, and he comforted the old lady:
"I just said a few more words out of excitement. After all, it has been four years and we still have a relationship between husband and wife. I just hope that it will get better and better." Wang Xiaochuan has been sitting quietly in the chair, seeing grandma and father crying I was so scared that I didn't dare to move.
Pillar happily braved the scorching sun in July and August, walked through the streets and alleys of Nanjing, loudly selling popsicles and ice cream, wearing the red or white vest that Wang Pengze bought for him, with healthy black skin exposed, and a drape around his neck. White towels, water bottles hanging on the handlebars, and with a lively smile on his face, he sold popsicles for 5 cents to strange men, women and children.After learning to ride a bicycle, his popsicles sold faster and faster, and he had to go back to the food factory several times a day to wholesale.
When he returns home at noon, he will always bring two ice creams to Wang Xiaochuan. After a long time, Wang Xiaochuan has formed a habit. As soon as 12 o'clock in the noon, he runs to the door of Tongzilou, sits on the steps and waits. The time is very accurate, like a biological clock like.When he returns home in the afternoon, he will drop by the vegetable market to buy vegetables. It is not easy to earn money, but he also spends it carefully, always picking the cheapest ones to buy.The old lady couldn't bear to see him buy vegetables, and it was useless to talk about it many times, so she asked Wang Pengze to persuade him.Wang Pengze said to Zhuzi: "You don't know how to cook, so naturally you don't know what to buy. And when you get home, the food is ready, and the vegetables you buy can only be used for cooking next time, and they are not fresh. .” So Zhuzi stopped buying vegetables and started buying fruits every now and then.
In fact, there are very few opportunities for Wang Pengze and Zhuzi to meet. Selling popsicles has become an effective way for Zhuzi to get rid of Wang Pengze’s miss. He leaves early and returns late, and is always outside during the day. When I got home at night, I was so tired that I fell asleep.
The strange behavior of the old lady that night appeared again a few days later, and this time Zhuzi was mentally prepared, and did not say a word, only staring nervously at the dark figure of the old lady at the door of the bedroom.The old lady’s voice was still full of smile and warmth, and said softly: “Yaoen.” Zhuzi still didn’t understand, and after a while the old lady smiled and said: “I found Pengze.” Then she turned around Leaving, closing the bedroom door.
It is impossible for Zhuzi not to understand now, even in a busy city with chaotic voices, he can still clearly recognize the word "Pengze" that may come from any direction and any distance.He couldn't fall asleep, and began to miss Wang Pengze endlessly.Although he could see Wang Pengze every morning, the monotonous greetings could not solve the deeper yearning.
One Saturday at noon, Zhuzi felt that the old lady was very preoccupied during dinner, and seemed to have something to say to him, but he hesitated several times.So he didn't go out immediately after dinner, but went to the kitchen to wash the dishes with the old lady, and asked, "Has my uncle been here today?" The old lady replied, "I have." Said with a full heart: "Peng Ze and Yao Min must be having an argument again." "Did my uncle tell you?" "He won't tell me. But I can tell at a glance." The two finished washing the dishes in silence chopsticks.When Zhuzi went out, the old lady took him to the gate of Tongzilou. When Zhuzi was about to ride his bicycle to leave, the old lady finally got up the courage to say, "Zhuzi, can you spare some time this afternoon to visit Pengze? He is very worried, he just looks optimistic on the surface, but he is actually a very serious person." "Okay." Zhu Zi smiled, "Don't worry, grandma, I know how to persuade you." At 3 o'clock in the afternoon, Zhu Zi knocked on Wang Pengze's door.Wang Pengze opened the door and saw Zhuzi standing outside the door with a smile on his face and a box selling popsicles.Wang Pengze couldn't help but joke with Zhuzi:
"Have you sold popsicles to my house?" "I came to see you on behalf of grandma, and I'm afraid you will be worried." Wang Pengze brought slippers for Zhu Zi, and Zhu Zi changed shoes and went in, and took ten things from the box. Take out a few popsicles and put them in the refrigerator.Wang Pengze said dissatisfiedly at the side: "How did you learn to give me gifts?" "How can my family call it a gift? What you said is so unreasonable." Zhuzi said, "I brought it here for my brother Wang Xiaochuan to eat. .” Wang Pengze smiled.Zhuzi asked: "Where's Xiao Chuan?" You guessed it right." Wang Pengze turned and went into the kitchen, and Zhu Zi followed him and asked, "What are you doing?" So he asked unhappily:
"Uncle, are you drinking again?" "No." "I don't believe it." Zhu Zi said, "Open your mouth and let me smell it." Wang Pengze smiled, turned his head and opened his mouth.Zhu Zi leaned over and sniffed it, but there was no smell of alcohol.
Wang Pengze said: "I want to drink, but I haven't had it yet. It happens that you are here, so you can have a drink with me." "I don't want to drink, and neither can you." Zhuzi asked: "Uncle, I'm a little thirsty. Is there any boiling water?" Wang Pengze said, "Go and sit in the living room, and I'll make you a cup of tea." Then he put down the kitchen knife, took out the glass from the closet, and reached for the tea canister.At this time, Zhu Zi was already sitting on the sofa in the living room, remembering the strange behavior of the old lady at night, so he told Wang Pengze about it.
"Grandma also mentioned you, she said, Yaoen, I found Pengze." The sounds in the kitchen suddenly fell silent, Wang Pengze seemed extremely surprised, and asked Zhuzi loudly: "My mother said something before she spoke. Repeat that name for me again." Zhu Zi didn't hear the name clearly, guessing, he repeated vaguely: "Yaoen." There was a "pop" in the kitchen, and the glass fell to the ground and fell Broken.
Zhu Zi hurried to the kitchen door to have a look, and saw that all the boiling water in the cup was spilled on Wang Pengze's feet.But Wang Pengze didn't realize it, he stared at the pillar with nervous and sad eyes, and murmured:
"Yaoen, it's my father's name." Wang Pengze's eyes were sore, his face began to twitch, and his speech was not fluent. He explained to Zhuzi with difficulty:
"My mother, I miss my father." He felt that he was about to lose control of his tears, and eagerly wanted to find a place where there was no one to hide for a while, but Xiao Chuan in the big bedroom hadn't woken up yet, and now Yao Rui was in the small bedroom. s room.Wang Pengze pushed aside the pillar with his hand, walked out of the kitchen, rushed into the bathroom, and closed the door.Zhu Zi followed to the bathroom door, tears welling up in his eyes, knocked on the door lightly, and tentatively called: "Uncle." After a long time, Wang Pengze's voice came out in a low voice:
"Zhuzi, let me be quiet for a while." "I know." Zhuzi choked up and said, "I'm leaving, uncle, come to the living room." Zhuzi put the popsicle box on his shoulder, lifted his vest, wiped his tears and walked away Going out, in order for Wang Pengze to hear, he closed the door louder than usual.
He stood at the door, strongly aware that he must not leave Wang Pengze at this time, he could not persuade himself to leave at all, but he was ordering himself to step out temporarily in order to protect Wang Pengze's dignity.He walked down the stairs step by step with heavy steps, outside was the dazzling white sun, there were no pedestrians in the afternoon, and the time in front of him passed quietly amidst the heat and indifference.
The buildings under the scorching sun cast narrow shadows on the ground, and the pillars put the popsicle box in a cool and dry place, and sat down on the box, staring blankly at the lonely, pale summer.Witnessing Wang Pengze's sudden grief and gaffe, he seemed to see more bitterness and hopelessness in this world.
He remembered the scene when he first saw Wang Pengze on the plateau in the northwest. The strong spring wind happened in March last year. For more than a year, his life was completely supported by Wang Pengze's hard work.His fantasy of life follows Wang Pengze's optimism and sophistication, and his belief in life comes from Wang Pengze's warmth and gift. Whenever he is in trouble, he can see Wang Pengze's tall and solid back in front of him. Smiling in the twilight background reaching out to him.His life was carried on Wang Pengze's shoulders, but after arriving in Nanjing, this mountain-like back was quietly blurred in his heart.
Tears were overflowing his eyes again, and Zhu Zi took a deep breath, trying to calm down.When he came here, he washed the sweaty towel under the faucet on the side of the road and hung it on the handlebar of the bicycle. At this time, he saw that the bright white sun had already hit the bicycle, so he walked over and moved the bicycle into the shadow.He picked up the dry towel and wiped the tears from his face vigorously.
He used to think that his home in Wanzi Village was the most hopeless place in the world, without hope, without pride, without warmth, and it was just the laughing stock of the whole village.But now, he has understood that Wang Pengze's family actually bears a more difficult fate. Regardless of the past, present, or future, there are traces of tragedy, but Wang Pengze endured it calmly and did not lose himself in anger and complaints. personality.Wang Pengze is not an omnipotent person. He is ordinary and has a weak side. The reason why he has paid so much for him but makes him feel understated is because Wang Pengze hides the pain and hardship in his heart.
On this day, Zhuzi gradually felt that he had grown up, so he felt that Wang Pengze had started to grow old instead.In the past, Wang Pengze also said that he was already an adult, but he was judging from his age, but now he noticed a real difference, so strangely, it dominated every cell in his body.
He stood excitedly under the scorching sun of Nanjing, and looked at the gray and old city in front of him without fear with a more reliable force than before. He was sure that this was an important change in his life.From this moment on, he, Wang Yuzhu, no longer hides timidly under the wings of Wang Pengze. No matter how long his future life is, no matter whether he can live to be 60 or 80 years old, he will stand up bravely to protect Wang Pengze. .
He no longer waited needlessly, and had no urge to cry at all. He simply carried the popsicle box neatly and strode up the stairs. He wanted to knock on Wang Pengze's door loudly, and he must let Wang Pengze confidently revealed his weak side in front of him.
But this time he didn't have the chance to knock on the door. After reaching the third floor, he met a neighbor.This building is one of the family buildings of the research institute. The research institute is too big, and geological research is only one of the departments. There is no one in the same department as Wang Pengze in this building, and they are not very familiar with it.But the neighbor saw the pillars a few times when he went upstairs and downstairs, so he joked: "Why are you selling popsicles? Do you have any? If you have, sell me two, so I don't have to go far to buy them." It’s gone.” Wang Pengze heard it in the house, knew that Zhuzhu was outside, and hurried to open the door, and saw that the neighbor had gone downstairs, only Zhuzi stood outside seriously, with something menacing in his eyes.
Wang Pengze helped Zhuzi get the slippers, and when he saw him standing outside, he urged, "Come in, Zhuzi." In the afternoon, the living room was a little dark, which made people feel a kind of afterglow.Wang Pengze seemed to have calmed down. He stood at the door and looked at the pillar, with a flat expression and no smile. Although he was still a tall and tall figure, he was holding the door with one hand and holding a towel in the other. A family man.Zhuzi felt sad again, he thought Wang Pengze's appearance contained too much helplessness and regret.
He went in to change his slippers, and Wang Pengze took off the box of popsicles that was slung over his shoulder, and said, "Why do you carry this thing when you come and go, just lock it on the bicycle, who would steal it?" The two stood side by side Sitting on the sofa, I didn't speak for a long time.Later, Zhuzi turned on the TV, and there was no interesting content in exchange. Wang Pengze's eyes were empty, and he was so absorbed in his thoughts that he was not watching TV at all.Zhuzi turned off the TV again, and asked Wang Pengze: "Uncle, do you still want to drink? I'll drink with you." "No, I won't drink any more in the future." "Have you figured it out?" "Yes." Wang Pengze stood up, went to the kitchen to wash towels, and walked wearily in front of the pillar, "I can drink when I am worried, but now my mother misses my father. What is the use of drinking?" Zhuzi followed to the kitchen and saw broken The glass was still on the ground, so I picked up the broom and swept it, and poured it into the trash can.I went to the balcony to get a mop. When I saw Wang Pengze's feet while mopping the floor, I immediately asked anxiously, "Uncle, have you applied the medicine yet? Your feet are all red from the boiling water." Wang Pengze went to the big bedroom to get ointment and cotton swabs, Sitting down on the sofa, bending down, Zhuzi said again: "Uncle, I'll help you apply the medicine." Without raising his head, Wang Pengze said, "I'll wipe it myself." Zhuzi said more emphatically, "I'll help you apply it." Wipe the medicine." Seemingly surprised by Zhuzi's tough tone, Wang Pengze raised his body, looked at Zhuzi, and said, "I have a pair of stinky feet, can I help you wipe it?" But he obediently handed the ointment and cotton swab to Zhuzi , lying down with his head resting on the armrest at one end of the sofa, smiling as he watched Zhuzi rub the medicine on him.Zhu Zhu sat down, put Wang Pengze's big feet on his lap, held them in his arms, and wiped them carefully with a cotton swab dipped in ointment.The light in the room was not bright enough, so in order to see clearly, his face was almost pressed against Wang Pengze's feet.
Wang Pengze is a very hygienic person, his feet are clean and not smelly at all.After applying the medicine, Zhuzi asked again: "Uncle, this leg was also injured last time, right?" Wang Pengze gave a low "hmm".Zhu Zi lifted up Wang Pengze's trouser legs, checked the injury on his calf, lowered his head and brushed away the fine hair on his leg, and looked at it carefully, and said, "There are no scars, it seems to be healed." Zhu Zi put the ointment on the table On the morning of the morning, I stood up and put Wang Pengze's feet on the sofa to make him lie down more comfortably. I went to the kitchen and threw the cotton swabs into the trash can. When I came back, I saw a lot of sweat on Wang Pengze's face. I wondered if it was medicine. Does it hurt too much?
He went to the bathroom to get the towel that Wang Pengze had just washed, squatted down in front of the sofa, leaned over to gently wipe the sweat off Wang Pengze's face, and asked in a distressed low voice, "Why does it hurt so much?" Wang Pengze turned his head and turned his head. Come and look into the eyes of the pillar.
At that moment, Zhuzi couldn't tell what kind of expression was in Wang Pengze's eyes, like doubt, like bewilderment, like unbelievable, and like a child so innocent that there was no content.Zhu Zi was stunned, looking at those eyes in a daze, he felt that Wang Pengze seemed to be a little different, they were so close, he only needed to lower his head a little bit, and he could touch Wang Pengze's face.
This is the end of the summer afternoon, the light and shadow of the day are refracted dimly, like the entrance of a cave wandering in the distance, and here is a secret time and space far away from the world, the hustle and bustle of the cities, quietly, in the The distant horizon precipitates grain by grain.
As if attracted by some irresistible magic, Zhu Zi lowered his head and kissed Wang Pengze's lips.Wang Pengze didn't move, just looked at him, like a melancholy marble statue, so the pillar kissed again, and then the third time, when it touched Wang Pengze's lips, he retracted immediately.This is what he thought of as a "kiss". He never thought about what would happen next, but the fourth time he felt the tip of Wang Pengze's tongue softly and lightly touched his lips.
This was the first time in Zhuzi's life, the first real kiss, that wonderful feeling made his breathing tremble suddenly, he knelt on the ground, and kissed again desperately.His body was filled with excitement, as if he had gathered all the power in his life, mobilized all the costs and possibilities of the past and the future, and he was tense like an arrow leaving the string.
But he felt that Wang Pengze gradually changed from tenderness and enthusiasm to indifference. Finally, Wang Pengze held his shoulders and pushed them away, closed his eyes and apologized in a panic: "I'm sorry, Zhuzi." He opened his eyes again and said regretfully:
"Zhuzi, I'm sorry, I did something wrong, I'm sorry, I'm sorry." Wang Pengze stood up in a hurry, retreated to the door at a loss, and stopped awkwardly with his back against the wall. He didn't know how to explain to Zhuzi, he thought a lot, and opened his mouth It feels inappropriate to say it.
Zhu Zi was still kneeling on the ground, looking at Wang Pengze's panicked face, he couldn't help but burst into tears.
At this time Wang Xiaochuan woke up, crying restlessly on the bed in the big bedroom.
Zhu Zi picked up the towel on the ground and wiped away his tears, walked quickly to the door and picked up the popsicle box. When he opened the door, the tears were streaming down his face again, and he hurriedly wiped them away with his hands.Wang Pengze stretched out his big hand and grabbed the pillar's shoulder, trying to tell him something, but in the end he only said: "Be careful on the road." Then he turned and went to the big bedroom to hug Wang Xiaochuan.Zhu Zi closed the door alone and left silently.
It was still afternoon, and there was still time. Zhu Zi was determined to sell another box of popsicles. He was inspired by a passion and felt that nothing was impossible.Under the scorching sun, he pedaled his bicycle like the wind, and happily yelled loudly in a more positive voice than usual: "Popsicles—ice cream——" He didn't care about the direction, and kept riding forward, passing through many places along the way. I passed through unfamiliar streets and rode to the edge of the Yangtze River.
There was no one on the riverside, and he pushed his bicycle close to the river. In the strong wind, he was surprised to see the vast and broad water surging forward without stopping.He feels that there is nothing more powerful than the Yangtze River, and nothing lasts longer than the Yangtze River. One day both he and Wang Pengze will disappear from this world, and the Yangtze River will continue to flow down at that time.He wanted to tell the most important name and the most important secret in his life to the only listener in front of him, so he happily shouted to the rolling river: "Wang—peng—ze—" He felt that his voice was not loud enough, so he shouted with all his strength until his voice became hoarse.
"Wang—peng—ze—" After shouting, he felt sad and mournful, and cried loudly facing the river again.
The next day Zhuzi left home early by bicycle to sell popsicles, but met Wang Pengze in the alley.Wang Pengze and Wang Xiaochuan rode over from the other end of the alley, and stopped after seeing the pillars from a distance.The pillar rode slowly over.Wang Pengze watched the pillar getting closer and closer, but felt in a trance that another pillar was getting farther and farther away in the morning air, so he felt guilty and blamed himself many times for what happened yesterday.
Wang Pengze asked Zhuzi: "In the past, you waited until I arrived before going out. Don't you want to see me today?" "No." Zhuzi smiled, "Today is Sunday, I thought you wouldn't come." " Wang Pengze lowered his head and smiled awkwardly, "Look at me, I'm confused." Seeing that Zhuzi was no different from the past, as if he hadn't been affected by what happened yesterday afternoon, Wang Pengze was a little relieved, and said to Zhuzi: "In the morning I I want to take my mother and Xiao Chuan out for a while, and if you don’t come back at noon, you can cook something yourself without waiting for us.” Zhuzi asked, “Where are you going?” Ever since Zhuzi came to Nanjing, Wang Pengze never felt that What needs to be concealed from Zhuzi, so he answered honestly: "Go and see my father." This sentence is related to the most painful memory in Wang Pengze's life, and it is sad every time he mentions it, but this time the sad emotion immediately Dispelled by the words of the pillar.Zhuzi said excitedly:
"I think grandma has wanted to go a long time ago. She must be very happy to hear that you arranged it later." Wang Pengze thought for a while, not sure whether Zhuzi's words were clever or funny, but his brows finally relaxed, and he could bear it. He couldn't help laughing and said, "That's right." Watching Wang Pengze and Wang Xiaochuan getting farther and farther away, and finally the bicycle disappeared after turning a corner in the alley. With his head down, he pushed his bicycle slowly onto the sidewalk, and merged into the silent stream of people composed of all living beings alone.
On Wang Pengze's bicycle, the old and the young were carried tirelessly for a long distance. After leaving the city, they stopped at the foot of a hill in the suburbs. On the hillside was a cemetery, which was covered by dense pines and cypresses. go in.Wang Pengze held Wang Xiaochuan in his arms with one hand, and supported the old lady with the other. The old lady was holding a basket, which was tightly covered with newspapers.
As soon as he stepped on the road up the mountain, the eyes of the old lady immediately burst into tears. Wang Pengze expected it, so he took out the method that the pillars used to comfort him in the morning to comfort the old lady, pointed to the mountain in front of him, and said, Mom, look here. The changes are really great. In the past when steel was being smelted, trees far and near were cut down, and the mountains were bare. I didn’t expect such lush cypress trees to grow. My father likes Jing the most. Seeing these changes, I must feel Very pleased.Wang Pengze said many similar things, and the old lady gradually calmed down.
Inspired by Wang Pengze's words, Wang Xiaochuan thought he was really out to play, so he broke free from his father's arms and ran happily on the mountain road, catching grasshoppers and picking wild flowers.Wang Pengze shouted: "Son, you can just catch grasshoppers. Picking wild flowers is something girls do." The old lady laughed and said, "What's the matter for boys and girls? As long as you can be happy and safe, that's a good thing. You were the same as Xiao Chuan when you were a child." Wang Pengze laughed with the old lady, then thought of Zhu Zi, and couldn't help but sigh that although he was 40 years old, there were some things that Zhu Zi could not understand.He suddenly thought that it would be great if the pillar was by his side at this moment, and he couldn't help but look back at the way he came. There was only the silent field, and there was no one there.
However, going to the grave is a sad thing after all. Wang Pengze lit incense, placed offerings, burned Ming coins, knelt down and kowtowed. The old lady sat in front of the grave and kept talking. Take a piece of dim sum for offerings.Wang Pengze hurriedly grabbed Wang Xiaochuan's hand and said, "Xiaochuan, that's for grandpa. You should kneel down and kowtow to grandpa before eating." Looking at Wang Xiaochuan's tiny body kneeling on the dirt, imitating his father's Kowtowing his head in a dazed manner, Wang Pengze's eyes got wet, and he gently wiped them off with his hands.
He looked around, once he thought he was hallucinating, he seemed to see the figure of the pillar passing away in the distance, but when he looked carefully, there was nothing, he thought he should find the reason in his own heart, it must be too much Miss the pillars.
In the distance, Zhu Zi and Zhou Bingkun hid in the shadow of the tree, staring blankly at the family in sight. This is the most complete moment for family members, father and son, grandfather and grandmother.Without a mother, at that moment Zhuzi firmly believed that Yao Min was not worthy of the position of mother. Such a mother is a burden and will only destroy the kindness and perfection of the family as a whole.
Zhou Bingkun looked at Zhuzi's expression and persuaded him, "He's going to the grave, why are you so sad? Don't be sad." Zhuzi replied coldly: "It's none of your business, it's not to make you sad." "What did you say!" Zhou Bingkun said angrily, "Why is it none of my business? We are good friends. If you are sad, I will be sad too." Zhu Zi vigilantly pulled Zhou Bingkun to squat down, hid in the grass, and warned in a low voice: "You can't whisper!" How about it?" As soon as the words fell, Zhou Bingkun suddenly cried out in surprise, and burrowed into Zhuzi's arms in fear, "Ah, mice, mice, there is a nest!" The tall and fat body threw the pillar Hit and sat on the ground.
A fat mouse and two small mice flashed with a "whoosh", and then ran away without a trace.Zhu Zi stroked Zhou Bingkun's head to reassure him not to be afraid, the mouse is almost scared to death by you.Suddenly, the scene of happiness when Wang Pengze was in his arms came to my mind again.
For many consecutive days, Zhou Bingkun would come to accompany Zhuzhu every day, and followed him to sell popsicles on a bicycle. Zhuzi's skin was dark and tanned, and Zhou Bingkun was also sweaty from the sun. His shorts were soaked with sweat and stuck to his buttocks. , Every time I got off the bike, I pulled it with my hands in a hurry. Zhu Zi wanted to laugh when he saw it, and couldn't help but a smile appeared on his face.Zhou Bingkun turned his head and smiled, his chubby face was dripping with sweat, as if washed by water, and said to Zhuzi:
"Wang Yuzhu, you finally laughed." Zhuzi suddenly realized that Zhou Bingkun was a very cute person. When he smiled, he looked like the rubber doll that Wang Pengze bought for Wang Xiaochuan. He had a round face, curved eyebrows, and the corners of his mouth curved to the sides.
