Chapter 136 Father's words, Brother Gan got a lot of money when he went home. He picked up a big advantage for no reason and became a village official. He just said that this little thief Ergou was determined to accept his fate with Brother Gan. Brother is the eldest brother, and I can’t accept it, because the old patriarch said that you, the new official, have to express your intention to the village. The new official has a lot of fire, so you can burn it first. The dog is a child who has no relatives and no reason. It is not a solution for a child to wander around the village all day. Besides, if you learn from those gangsters in society in the future, then we will ruin a child, the old patriarch is moved by emotion. It’s reasonable. Ergou’s little guy’s eyes were also lively. Before Brother Gan could speak, he knelt down and kowtowed to Brother Gan and called him brother!
Seeing that Brother Gan was in a dilemma, Brother Gan's mother advised: "Xiaotian Since you can eat enough in the city, you should recognize this younger brother. I don't want anything else, just because we are all from the same village. There are no outsiders, and I’m talking about Ergou, this child, is also very pitiful..."
What else can I do after my mother talks? I can only accept it. But Brother Gan didn't make any difficulties. Brother Gan mainly didn't want to make me so tired. He didn't make a promise easily, because every promise is a debt, and this debt I have to pay it back all my life. Brother Gan is the kind of person who usually doesn't make promises easily, but once he makes promises, he will definitely do it with all his heart. Therefore, since Brother Gan nodded and agreed, he will not treat Ergou badly. Let's talk about it. The child Ergou is not bad by nature, has a nimble mind and a wise mind. If he has a little training and guidance, he is also a capable person. Just now when Zhongyitang is short of personnel, he will take it back and let Ouyang Cheng put it in the team below to practice. Just go, such a big gang does not lack this mouth.
"Get up Ergou, if you follow me and have what I do, it won't make you drink dilute when you are hungry. Don't worry, but you remember it for me. You can't learn those stealing things when you are with me! Otherwise, don’t blame me for being rude. Learn some skills, be honest and do things, and live with all your heart!" Brother Gan told Ergou, who was still kneeling there waiting for Brother Gan to reply.
"I know, brother, don't worry. I, Wang Ergou, will definitely be honest and never embarrassing me..." Ergou smiled and was happy when he heard that Brother Gan accepted his younger brother. Promise, then stand up.
"Oh my god, let's make a decision to be the village chief. You guys have to let the old and young men in our Dawangzhuang live a good life. Although I am old, I am not confused. I will be with you. Generally, you are a capable man who is a big or older than you. Only you can make the whole village rich in the future. So when you return to the city, don’t forget this Dawangzhuang Village, your hometown. There are still thousands of holes, thousands of mouths waiting for you! This is your root. Your uncles, uncles, uncles, aunts and you are your relatives. Are you close to your hometown? I won’t say much? …” The old patriarch said to Brother Gan earnestly. He has been an old farmer all his life and is afraid of his hard life. He doesn’t want to let this village be so poor anymore. Poverty is sometimes a sin. You let More people break the law without knowing their integrity, and this is the reason why they know honor and disgrace when they have enough food and clothing.
"Old patriarch, don't worry, I will never forget the villagers in the village. I was born here. Although I have been in the army in recent years, no matter how prosperous the outside world is, How beautiful I will never forget the roots. Here are my parents, my playmates who have been playing since I was a child, and the old locust tree I have been watching for nearly twenty years. How can I forget it? I yesterday I suddenly missed home at night. I rushed back overnight. I don’t know why, as soon as I stepped into the village, my heart was very calm. I didn’t even dare to touch this peace. Only my hometown is the most peaceful The old patriarch, let alone I have promised to be the village chief of our village now, I am not the village chief, and it is my unshirkable responsibility to let the villagers live a good life. Don't worry, I will think about the villagers at any time Yes, this is my mobile phone number. If there is anything in the village that cannot be solved, call me. I will come back at any time. Even if I can't come back, I will ask my friends to solve it... "Brother Gan sighed. Yes, it’s not so easy to forget when I grew up. Anyway, Brother Gan can’t forget it. As Brother Gan said, he wrote his mobile phone number to the old patriarch.
"Haha, okay, okay, my god, with your words, we, the old guys, will feel at ease, and will feel more worry-free. After all, we can't catch up with you young people, old, old... …” The old patriarch nodded and said with relief after hearing what Gan Ge said, saying that he was also a passionate young man back then, and was still fighting against Japanese devils at that time. Now, in the blink of an eye Forty or fifty years have passed, hey, it’s just a blink of an eye…
"Haha, old patriarch, what are you saying? Don't worry, you will definitely live for a hundred years, and it's okay to live for another twenty or thirty years!" Brother Gan comforted with a smile, although he said a few old people. My hands are in my seventies or eighties, but my body is firm, so there is no problem.
"Hey, don't say this, you boy. Although we are old, we are not old and confused. We know our own bodies and are content to live until now. Although we have not lived a wealthy life, I can eat enough to have a lot of children and grandchildren, so why should I ask for? During the famine, when I was eating tree bark and chewing Guanyin soil, who would have thought of this good life now? I am content... I live my whole life until later Don't regret it when you are old, be content, because you are lucky compared to those who left before you..." The old patriarch waved his hand and smiled. Brother Gan listened carefully and observed. Seeing the expressions on these old people's faces all have one common feature, that is, they are dull and there are no waves. What is left is the wrinkles and mottled wrinkles left by the years on their faces with wind, frost, rain and snow. Full of traces of time.
The old patriarch and several village elders talked to Brother Gan and Brother Gan's parents and left. They had already completed their tasks, so they seemed to be more energetic when walking, but in fact they were all at their age. There are no more pursuits and ideas. The only idea is to let future generations live a good life and let the younger generation live a peaceful and healthy life.
No one disturbed me on this day when I was at home. I didn’t deal with ordinary things. I spent all day with my parents. Ergou became my little follower. I did a lot of things on this day. He thought He washed his mother's feet, and the last time he washed his mother's feet was the night before he left the army three years ago. My mother's feet became more and more dry, but my brother was in his hands; it was still so warm. My brother carefully stroked and soaked the soap, and found the acupoints on the sole of my mother's feet to massage my mother. These feet were once young. How many roads have I walked with my younger brother? Whether it is a mountain path or a tree-lined path, my mother took me and my younger brother to measure it step by step with her feet that are no longer young. It is the mother's church. The first step in my life is that my mother teaches me to take every step steadily. How could I forget all this, and how could I forget it?
After washing my mother's feet, my father didn't let me wash my father, but walked out of the house alone. My father knew that my father was afraid of his feet smelling. My brother smiled slightly and didn't force me. My father was an honest and dull person. My brother Since I was a child, I remember that my father would sit in the fields almost every day to see the crops, whether it was wheat, corn, or even just dry loess. My father’s favorite thing was to grab a lump of soil and put it in his hand and grind it gently It breaks, and then carefully scatters into the ground, and the mouth is always inseparable from dry tobacco rolled with tobacco leaves.
Brother Gan followed his father to the field. This is the place where Dawangzhuang Village was born and raised, or it has supported Dawangzhuang Village for hundreds or thousands of years. Every inch of land here is spiritual, and my father still found a place. Sitting on the ground, in my father's words, soil is the cleanest thing in the world, because everything that can be eaten in the world is nurtured by soil, and even the dirty things in the world can always become clean when they go to the soil. Brother Gan has been outside for three years , I have met countless big names, claiming to be a family or a chairman, but my father's words are the most philosophical words that Brother Gan has heard so far. Although my father only graduated from the fifth grade of elementary school, he is even even his own. I forgot how to write the name, but with this sentence, I was much more educated than the beasts of the bricks who were full of spitting feces! Seeing that his father had done it, Brother Gan sat down next to his father.
My father took out a piece of straw paper with his hand full of calluses and took out a piece of tobacco leaves from his tobacco pipe, put it on the straw paper, and then rolled it up with a homemade dry tobacco. My father put the cigarette in his mouth. Brother Gan took the matches his father placed on the ground, lit a match and lit a cigarette for his father. His father took a puff of the cigarette, and then gave him a deep breath and said, "Oh my God, the old patriarch today If you want to take it to heart, no matter how prosperous or prosperous a person is, he must not forget his roots. These two acres of land are not so easy to plant, and life is not so easy to live in the face of the loess and the backs of the sky. Since you promised to be the village chief, you must take on this responsibility. This responsibility is your duty, not because you became the village chief, nor because you promised the old patriarch, but because you are from Wangjiazhuang Village The child who walked out is because you are a man raised in this loess land! Do you understand Xiaotian?"
"Well... I understand dad..." Brother Gan nodded heavily after hearing his father's words. His father rarely said so much to him, but what his father said today made him feel that the responsibility on his shoulders was suddenly heavy. of……
