Chapter 45 The Story of Sun Zhenyuan
On April 5, during the Qingming Festival, Sun Zhenyuan and Chen Shuping took Chen Lidong and their cousin's family to visit the old lady's grave.
Grandma Chen Lidong’s tomb is at the east entrance of Chenjia Village in Xiaowa Farm. The old lady’s bones were collected from the old house by Sun Zhenyuan a few years ago. The house there has been sold and there are no relatives left. Chen Shuping is worried about being killed.
Tomb, the bones were moved here and the tomb was rebuilt.
Everyone brought cut paper money, meat, fish, fruits, and firecrackers for offerings, and the men held up shovels.
At the end of the field, the men gathered around the tomb to clear weeds and put in new soil. Chen Shuping and her wife placed tributes, drew a circle in front of the tomb, and lit paper money.
Chen Shuping knelt in front of the grave and began to cry. After a while, it turned into howling, muttering: Mom, your grandson finally came to see you.
The old lady is the Chen family, and Chen Lidong is an authentic descendant. Chen Lidong quickly knelt down and shouted: "Grandma, I'm here to see you. It's unfilial of us to keep you outside for so many years. You can keep the money first and take you back later."
Reunite with my grandpa." Then he burst into tears.
Chen Lidong had no impression of his grandma, and his grandfather had only seen an old photo. But family affection is family affection. Across this tomb, it seemed as if grandma was lying there, and that was the source of his blood.
At noon, when he came back from visiting the grave, Sun Zhenyuan called Chen Lidong outside the hospital and said to him: "Your grandfather and your grandmother are separated for so many years. It is because we are unfilial. You, the younger generation, have grown up this time, so you should stay together."
.”
Chen Lidong quickly apologized: "Oh, I got excited this morning. Normally, this is something that only you seniors can decide."
Sun Zhenyuan waved his hand and said: "Logically speaking, this is a matter for your old Chen family. You have to let your father and your uncle discuss it and find someone to find a suitable day for the groundbreaking. When you return to your hometown, you have to make any arrangements.
After looking at Feng Shui, I think we should also prepare a stone tablet and study the inscriptions on it."
Chen Lidong quickly begged for mercy: "Uncle, I don't understand these things at all. When you return to your hometown, you three brothers will discuss it together. I'll go to the toilet first." After saying that, he urinated.
Sun Zhenyuan was speechless. This child is still young and doesn't have a good temper yet.
After the Qingming Festival, there was a delay of another seven or eight days before the return group from Panshan to Lan City started their journey. Li Taishun drove the car. He was not yet satisfied with the car and was eager to try driving a long distance.
Chen Lidong was too lazy to do anything, so he sat in the back row with Sun Zhenyuan and chatted to relieve the loneliness on the road.
Sun Zhenyuan has not been back to his hometown for decades. As the saying goes, he is timid when he is close to his hometown, and he feels excited and uneasy.
Li Taishun has an annual salary of 100,000 yuan, let alone the dream of a daughter-in-law, and he is hesitant to drive a Bluebird.
Chen Lidong was in a good mood. He had enough fun this time. Although he spent more than half a month, he got a research cow, recalled his eldest uncle, and had an explanation both internally and externally. Well, not bad.
When nothing happened on the way, Chen Lidong asked his eldest uncle how his legs were doing. After being together for half a month, it no longer seemed rude to say something personal.
Sun Zhenyuan wanted to lift up his trousers, but the trousers were relatively thick and he couldn't show them to Chen Lidong. He put down his trousers and sighed: "I found this myself."
Sun Zhenyuan was considered a retired employee of a state-owned farm and received a pension. After completing his retirement at 60 weeks in 1991, he was approached by his employer and went north to do business with a farm material distribution company.
At that time, Su Xiong began to disintegrate, and many businessmen flocked to the north. Legend has it that someone exchanged a box of Erguotou for a load of steel.
Sun Zhenyuan has been doing business with Chen Dongwu since he was a child. He also dealt with Mao Zi and knew Mao Zi language. When he was on the farm, he worked at the farm's agricultural technology station. When the farm was first developed, he hired experts from Su Xiongguo to guide him, and Sun Zhenyuan became the
Therefore, the farm wanted to do business with the north. When looking for a translator, the first thing that came to mind was Sun Zhenyuan, so he hired Sun Zhenyuan back.
Speaking of which, there is another story about Sun Zhenyuan’s meeting with Mao Ziyu. It turns out that Chen Dongwu’s main business activities in the Northeast were in the Jinzhou area. At that time, Su Xiong had hundreds of thousands of troops stationed in Northeast China, and Sun Zhenyuan and Chen Shuping also often met with Su
Children in the military camp played together. With a pair of brothers
They are the best friends, their elder brother is named Lovich, and his younger sister is named Lovna. The four friends are similar in age. Their father, Simonov, is an officer in the automobile camp. He probably suffered from snakebite due to acclimatization, so Chen Dongwu cooked it himself.
The plaster cured his illness, and the two families formed a deep friendship.
The four friends spent several years together, from teenagers to young adults.
In the mid-1950s, Su Xiong's garrison in China withdrew from Luda. Lovich and Lovna left China with their father and left a letter to Sun Zhenyuan. In addition to some words expressing affection and nostalgia, the letter
Also included is a photo of the brother and sister.
Going back to a few years ago, the trading company that Sun Zhenyuan worked for had an official background. At first, he was approached by Xiaowa Farm Materials Distribution Company, and later the provincial supply and marketing system got involved.
It started here, and then it went to the other side. The so-called "that side" means the side of the bear. It exports tobacco, wine, tea and sugar, canned ham, clothes and shoes, various daily necessities, imported steel, machinery,
Chemical fertilizers and other materials.
Sun Zhenyuan himself brought back some watches, telescopes, cameras and other small items, and also made a lot of money. Li Aiguo's fishing boat benefited from the old man's extra money.
As the saying goes, if two mountains cannot reach each other, two people will eventually meet.
At the beginning of last year, Sun Zhenyuan met Lovich in Khabarovsk. The two were waiting at Khabarovsk Airport, and then boarded the same flight to Moscow. Sun Zhenyuan went to Moscow with a delegation to discuss a lathe business;
Lovich was attending her son's wedding.
While waiting at the airport, Lovich noticed Sun Zhenyuan, got on the plane together and ran to Sun Zhenyuan's seat. After chatting, he turned out to be that Chinese brother.
The two reunited after 38 years, and were filled with emotion. During the several-hour trip to Moscow, they talked about their experiences with each other. Lovich expressed his blessings for the marriage of Sun Zhenyuan and Chen Shuping. Sun Zhenyuan also learned that Lovich had already
He is a father of two children, and he also has some authority in the Mao Xiong Far East Military Region, but I heard from Lovich that life in the army is very difficult.
After getting off the plane, Sun Zhenyuan simply asked for leave from his manager and attended the wedding of Lovich's youngest son, Gennady. Gennady means "legend" in Maozi language.
After returning from Moscow, Sun Zhenyuan rushed to Khabarovsk and visited Lovich's home. Gennady and his wife also came to Khabarovsk.
The young couple were full of curiosity about the stories of their fathers, so they proposed to travel to China during their wedding to see the place where their father once lived. Sun Zhenyuan readily agreed and took Gennady and the young couple to Harbin first, and then took the bus
Train to Luda.
After visiting the former site of the Brigade Army Camp and being guests at Sun Zhenyuan’s home, the young couple planned to take the train back to Russia and enjoy the sights of various places along the way. Sun Zhenyuan happened to want to take a trip to Moscow, so they went with them.
This train goes from Panshan to Fengtian, passes through Chuncheng and Bingcheng, and then leaves Manzhouli and arrives in Outer Mongolia.
Unexpectedly, something happened after we passed Ulaanbaatar, and robbers appeared on the bus. A group of people robbed the passengers next to the carriage, searched the passengers, rummaged through the luggage, and took away people’s wallets, watches, jewelry, etc.
Something valuable.
When I arrived at Gennady, I saw Gennady's beautiful wife. One of the robbers actually touched her. Gennady couldn't bear this, so he took action on the spot.
Mr. Sun Zhenyuan didn't stand idly by. When he saw that the robber seemed to be Chinese, he yelled at him, picked up the enamel cup in his hand, swung it into a round shape, and then beat him. I didn't expect that the other robber had a gas gun in his hand. This man was also a fool.
, rushed to the old man without saying a word
The old man's leg came up, and an inch-long nail hit his thigh. The old man lay down immediately. The shooter was also stunned and didn't know where the shot was. The other robbers thought they were going to kill someone when they saw it, so they didn't dare
If he continued to make trouble, he ran away from the carriage.
There were no police officers on the train at this time, and it took a long time for a flight attendant to check on the situation and help treat the injury. Fortunately, the wound was not big, there was no penetrating injury, and there was not much bleeding. After a few stops, the old man was sent to the hospital.
He entered a small city called Sukhbaatar in the Bear Country and was hospitalized for treatment. The doctor opened the wound and found that the distal end of his thigh bone had been broken into several pieces by a gun nail. They
It couldn't be manipulated, so we could only debridement, disinfection, stop the bleeding, and suture it up. A few days later, Lovich came with experts and took Sun Zhenyuan to Boli for a second operation. It took more than a month to have him
They were sent back to Panshan. The Lovich family was very grateful to Sun Zhenyuan. After all, the old man was injured because he was protecting Gennady and his wife. As an elder, he had the heart to protect his shortcomings and dared to fight. The idiots admired them very much.
But Sun Zhenyuan became lame from then on. After returning home, he bought Chinese medicine and drank it and applied it for several months before he could walk with a limp and finally did not collapse on the kang. In winter, the leg injury was still painful. These days, the temperature is high
It felt more comfortable when I came up. When Chen Lidong came over, Sun Zhenyuan was just able to do some work.
Last year, Chen Shuping mentioned a few words in a letter to her brother, so Chen Shujian asked Chen Lidong to pay attention to his uncle's health on the phone.
After listening to Sun Zhenyuan's story, Chen Lidong sighed, our uncle has experienced everything, and one person's story can write a novel.
It's a pity that the Internet has not yet been established in China, and there are no novel platforms. Otherwise, if I chat with people like this every day, I can earn monthly tickets online.
Although the seats in the Bluebird are relatively comfortable, sitting there for seven or eight hours would be uncomfortable for normal people, and Sun Zhenyuan, a disabled person, was even more exhausted.
When they arrived at Nanchen Village, Chen Shuqin, Chen Shujian and others had already welcomed him out of the gate.
Sun Zhenyuan almost couldn't stand when he got out of the car. Chen Lidong quickly hugged him from behind, and then he managed a smile and greeted his two brothers-in-law.
Chen Lidong helped the old man into the house and lay on his side on the kang. Don't say anything and rest first.
Li Taishun was also very tired from driving, so he went to the kang to give up his feelings without being polite.
In the evening, there was a banquet in the cafeteria for an old man and a young man. The wine was good and the food was good, but no one was interested in eating it.
Chen Shuqin and Sun Zhenyuan had little social contact, but Sun Zhenyuan watched Chen Shujian grow up. Chen Shujian was already more than ten years old when he returned to his hometown with his father. The three brothers cried and laughed for a while. They were filled with endless nostalgia.
Nostalgia.
After a while, Li Taishun and Chen Lidong came outside. It was very uncomfortable to see the white-haired man hugging his head and crying.
