Chapter Thirteen

I haven’t been home for several years. The house is still the same as it was when Ye Fan left. Everything in the house is old and almost destitute. The house is bare. The yard has been swept away and a snowman has retreated outside the door. Everything in the house has been wiped out.

After cleaning up, he boiled hot water and washed his mother's feet: "Mom, your son has been away from home these past few years, and you have been suffering at home alone. It is only natural that your son should wash your feet. You are dragging me like this."

Da, I haven’t paid tribute to you properly yet!”

"It's good if Ye Zi comes back. As long as you come back, Mom is happier than anything else. It's good if you come back. It's good if you come back. Mom will suffer a little and suffer a little. It doesn't matter. As long as you can live a good life in the future, Mom

Whatever you do is worth it. By the way, Ye Zi, you won’t leave when you come back this time, right?” My mother sat on the edge of the kang with a happy smile on her face, extremely happy, looking at her son by her side, the old man felt in her heart

Always indescribably happy.

While washing the old man's feet, Ye Fan said in a deep voice: "Mom, I won't leave when I come back this time. I will take care of you at home. You are old. Even if my son leaves, he will take you with him."

"Nonsense, I won't leave. I'm old and don't want to go anywhere. I just want to stay here. This is what your grandfather and your father left behind. I can't bear to let it go." My mother became a little sad as she said it.

Wiping the tears from his eyes, he then smiled and said: "Yi Zi, it's fine if you don't leave when you come back this time. If you really don't leave, you can find a serious job in the county. It's your duty, but you can't."

Do you know that you have to be a down-to-earth person if you dare to act recklessly? In a few days, mother will ask someone to find a matchmaker for you and introduce you to a daughter-in-law. Once you get married, mother's wish will be fulfilled. When the time comes, she will hug you

Big fat grandson, you don’t dare to mess around outside. You know better than mother. My son is so handsome, why are you worried about finding a wife? In recent years, mother can make a lot of money by setting up a small stall on the street.

I have a small amount of money, and my mother has saved it in the bank for you to get a wife. Oh, by the way, you brat, look at your long hair, which looks like a bandit. Go and shave it for your mother tomorrow.

Now, you are back in high spirits. Mom likes the way you looked when you were in high school. You are so energetic."

The mother was chattering happily, watching her son come back. The old man always had endless things to say, and Ye Fan didn't feel annoyed. He smiled and made some arrangements with his mother, and then agreed one by one.

If you say so, Ye Fan will never object.

As Ye Fan helped his mother lie down, he moved the electric fan to the side of his mother's bed. After all, the room was much warmer. When his mother was lying on the bed, she suddenly seemed to think of something and hesitated.

After a while, he opened his mouth to ask his son: "Yi Zi, have you seen Mu Xue's child when you came back? I heard that she has been admitted to the county civil servant and is promising. She graduated from a prestigious university. Her family background is already good, and

He went to a good university, and now he has been admitted to the civil service, which is even more incredible. When the child grows up, he will become more plump, and his skin is white and tender. Mother loves that child from the bottom of her heart. You two have been together since childhood.

When you grow up, you two helped your grandfather and the others arrange a wedding. According to the old saying, Mu Xue's child is still the daughter-in-law of our old Ye family. In the past few years, when you were away, that child often came to see me.

, I haven’t seen her much in the past two years, probably because my child has been admitted to the civil service. Hey, I don’t know if Xiaoxue’s child is still willing to be our wife. She is now a state cadre, and our family is afraid.

I can’t afford to be so high. In the past, when your grandfather and your father were here, the two families still had some contact with each other. In recent years, they have become more estranged. This kind of favor should be moved around more. I remember Xiaoxue pestering me every day when I was a child.

You said that I want to be your daughter-in-law when you grow up. I don’t know if we are still so lucky now. Ye Zi, now that you are back, you will play with Xiaoxue more in the future. After all, she is still our daughter-in-law. At that time

The two families have exchanged items for the baby bride who has been ordered. Alas, society is different now. Love is free and people change quickly. If Xiaoxue’s child is still the same as before and is willing to be our daughter-in-law, I will

Of course the old lady is happy. It doesn't matter if she doesn't want to. I will treat her as my goddaughter. But now I am afraid that people should dislike our family for being poor. They all live in a building and the whole family is a state cadre. We

It's a good match there. You should find someone who is a good match. I'm afraid that Xiaoxue's kid won't look down on our family. It's all in the past. Let's not talk about it. Ye Zi, you are back now, and that day will be gone.

I went to Master Xiaoxue’s house and walked around. Even if Xiaoxue doesn’t want to be our daughter-in-law, we won’t force her. However, I really like Xiaoxue’s child from the bottom of my heart.”

"Mom, I understand. I will make time to go with you some other day. You can go to bed early." Ye Fan promised his mother with a smile, tidied up the house, closed the door for her, and then opened the door for her in the yard.

Xiaoyang added some grass and stood at the door and smoked a cigarette. He remembered that when he was in high school, he and Xiaoxue were together every day. That charming and well-behaved girl sat behind Mark without shame, hugging his arm.

Waist, he said with a smile that when he grew up, he would be Ye Fan’s wife. Later, Ye Fan was expelled from school because of her mangy face, and finally had no choice but to join the army. I still remember the day he left as a soldier.

Xiaoxue cried like a tearful person and chased the car for a long distance, saying that she would wait for Ye Fan to come back. Several years have passed and everything has changed. I don’t know whether Xiaoxue has changed or whether it was before.

The little girl who made Ye Fan's heart flutter.

Smiling bitterly and shaking his head, Ye Fan no longer dares to think about many things now. Let everything take its course. There is nothing in this world that remains unchanged, including people. Maybe Xiaoxue now is not the one who only had the eyes of the past.

Ye Fan is a boy, and he will only like a little girl who is a boy. The university is like a big dyeing vat. Pure and simple people will also dye their colors in the big dyeing vat of the university. Xiaoxue has not been able to do so for so many years.

After visiting my mother again, maybe it will explain everything.

Back in his small house, Ye Fan lay on the bed, tossing and turning, unable to sleep. He lit a cigarette and smoked it gently. Looking at the dim light bulb, he thought of many things in the past. He often thought about it, if he had gone to school.

What will it be like to go to college? When you were in school, you were mixed up in the society. In fact, everything was in vain. In the end, you realized that the brotherly loyalty you were shouting about with your chest and your heart and mind were all fucking bullshit. You will be implicated in the consequences.

Just your family.

At that time, I didn't learn well, and I was very good at fighting. I was brave enough to fight. After all, I was young and fearless. I thought that violence could solve everything, and it could solve everything together. Even when I was killing someone, I didn't know how to deal with it.

I don’t know the importance of my hands. At that time, it was easy to be passionate and impulsive. I couldn’t see many things thoroughly, so I couldn’t see clearly. I was used as a weapon by those so-called charlatans. Only later did I know what the so-called

Friends and brothers are just fair-weather friends. When you have money, they are just friends. When you have no money, they will step on you harder than others. In this society, sometimes the reality is that you have nothing to lose.

, reality forces you to a state of complete indignity, with no way out. Only those who have truly experienced the war, after going to the battlefield, Ye Fan finally suddenly realized a lot of things. He used to be fooling around. When you see your comrades die,

In front of you, when you see a bullet passing through a person's body and shooting out with a string of blood, you will understand that in the face of life and death, everything becomes so pale and powerless.

Looking at the certificates he won in high school on the wall, he didn't expect that his mother still had them before she was willing to tear them up. After washing the cigarettes, Ye Fan thought about many things in the past and fell asleep deeply.

I woke up in the morning and ran around the county seat. I boxed for a while on the edge of the Beigou behind the County No. 1 Middle School. I immediately attracted a group of high school girls to watch: "Wow, that guy is so handsome. Look at him."

Her hair is so stylish, she looks like an artist, and her melancholy eyes. When I look for a boyfriend in the future, I will find one for me according to this standard. You see, she has put some effort into it, she is so handsome.

"

"Forget it, damn girl, stop being crazy. How could such a good man have your turn? Let's go back to class quickly. Otherwise, we'll be late and the English teacher will get mad again. It will be miserable then.

Come on." The two little girls walked back while walking.

I looked up and saw the pretty little girl holding a book between her arms. When she heard the English teacher, her little face suddenly turned bitter: "I'm not afraid!" After saying that, she made a cute face and spit out pink and bright red.

Little Tongue, trotted all the way into the school gate.

After Ye Fan finished boxing and called it a day, he took a sip of water and stood on the edge of Beigou, looking at the ravines and mountains in front of him. Suddenly, a majestic and steady voice came from behind: "Young man, have you ever been a soldier? And it's not just an ordinary person."

Soldier." Someone held down Ye Fan's shoulders from behind.

Without looking back, Ye Fan smiled faintly and retreated very fast. The two people had already started to move. Bang bang, Ye Fan's moves were fierce and fierce. The old man who was practicing Tai Chi next to Ye Fan just now was really soft in his moves.

With firmness in the middle, just right, neither hasty nor slow, retreat to advance, defend

In order to attack, Ye Fan's offensive was resolved within a few moves. On the contrary, the last move seemed to be extremely soft and lightly hit Ye Fan's chest, but Ye Fan's body was violently shaken and kicked.

He took several steps back, and only he knew how powerful the palm he just struck was.

"Haha, the young man has a good foundation and his skills are not bad. It's just that his moves are too fierce and brutal. Don't show too much edge. Be strong but soft. If you can practice some internal boxing techniques like Tai Chi, your skills will be better.

That’s amazing. It’s already great that you can accompany me to do these moves.

Well, no one has ever been able to pass three moves under my hands. Being a soldier can train you, but there are some shortcomings that cannot be corrected. You have a strong foundation. If you want to learn some internal martial arts in the future,

If you want to practice a few moves with me, an old man, in the morning, don’t ask me.

Who is it? I hate such people the most. If you want to learn a few tricks about your temper, if you don't want to, just pretend that my old man didn't say anything." The old man was calm and relaxed, and he and Ye Fan just spent some time together.

Zhao, his face is not red, he is not out of breath, his body is straight, and he is wearing a Tai Chi suit.

He wears clothes, a pair of cloth shoes, a smile on his face, and a head of white hair. He is energetic, especially his sharp eyes, which are as wise and shrewd as those of an eagle. He seems to be able to see through people's hearts. He speaks decisively and with momentum.

Majesty, seems to be faintly domineering.

After saying that, the old man didn't wait for Ye Fan to answer, turned around and put his hands behind his back, his waist still straight, humming a familiar Peking Opera and left slowly.
