The Rebirth of the Portable Space The Red Age

When Grandpa Du first saw the sheepskin coat and dog fur hat Mr. Meng was wearing, one of the few idioms he knew popped up in his mind, and he hit it off right away.

I also have such a sheepskin coat, which was passed down to me by my old father.In winter, if you don't go hunting in the mountains, Grandpa Du will not be willing to wear it easily.When Father Du and his brothers were a few half-children, they even sneaked out to show off by wearing them. After returning home, Grandpa Du took the soles of their shoes.

In those days, such a sheepskin coat was a priceless treasure for the head of the family.The mountain will be closed by heavy snow for two or three months. If you want to give your wife and children a dental sacrifice, if you don’t have a fur coat, you will be courting death if you enter the mountain.

Not only Grandpa Du felt nostalgic, but Du Zhongyi and Du Jicheng's elder brothers felt a sense of loss for a moment.The two brothers left home when they were young, and the eldest returned home. When they left Qinghewan to join the army, they were only [-] or [-] years old, and when they returned to Qinghewan, they were already gray-haired.The deepest memory is the father wearing a sheepskin coat in the middle of the night, with blood on his face, half-lifting the wild boar leg home.There was no hole in the sheepskin coat, but the calf was almost pierced by a wild boar's teeth.

Grandpa Li, an old high-level intellectual, could not match the sturdy sheepskin coat.However, Grandpa Li felt the most cordial when he saw the sheepskin coat, because Grandpa Du's sheepskin coat had been regarded as the bottom of the suitcase by him all these years. [

That year, in the first winter in Qinghe Bay, Grandpa Li put on the thick cotton shoes given by Madam Du, and also wore a sheepskin coat that Grandpa Du gave him.

Grandpa Du was a rough man who had studied in a private school for several years. When he saw Li Qingyuan and his wife for the first time, he felt that the old couple's bodies were so thin that they could be described as skinny.Since then, I have had an intuitive impression in my mind that all cultural people are thin and gentle.When the first winter snow fell that winter, Grandpa Du rummaged through the box to find out the sheepskin coat and gave it to Grandpa Li.

Li Qingyuan knew that the old sheepskin coat was a family heirloom in Grandpa Du's heart. Except for the occasional wear in the first two years, he treasured it and put it on the bottom of the suitcase, and took it out every summer to breathe.

In a word, the sheepskin coat worn by old man Meng just this year brought back the softest memories of the old men in the family.

In other words, the old men in the family hit it off immediately when they saw Mr. Meng.

Hu Tianshu and Meng Dezhu's family only have a total of seven people, old and young, they don't need Di Yaohui's introduction, they can match each other at a glance.

When Mr. Meng took off his sheepskin coat and crossed his legs to let him onto the kang, the elder brothers who were very affectionate with the old men shouted indiscriminately, and Di Yaohui didn't remind the old men that their seniority seemed to be a little messed up!

Mr. Meng's cautiousness before he entered the courtyard was forgotten after a few calls to his elder brother. He clicked his tongue and boasted, "Old brother, your house is really warm, clean and bright!"

"Hey, that's not bad! Not only is the kang heated in the house, but also floor heating is installed! The floor is warm!" Grandpa Du was delighted when he heard that. Ya'er proposed this floor heating. Helping people point out this craft has made a lot of money in the past few years.Even if that kid has a conscience, he even came over a few days ago and gave him two bottles of good wine!

As soon as Grandma Du heard her wife's suddenly raised voice, she knew that if she didn't stop quickly, her wife would continue to praise her granddaughter for half an hour, helped Huzi and Xiaoying take off their thick clothes, and brought two plates of snacks for the three children. Touch the seeds of the three little heads one by one: "The three of you eat snacks to fill your stomach first, and let's have dinner!"

As she said that, Grandma Du also stuffed a plate into the hands of Hu Tianshu and Meng Dezhu, who were neglected by the whole family.

Du Ma hurriedly grabbed the two little nephews and smiled at Hu Tianshu's wife in embarrassment. The two fat boys were not afraid of life at all.In particular, the four fat claws always want to catch the little braids on the back of the eagle's and tiger's heads.

It's such a joy to have guests coming from afar. In the living room, everyone, old and young, laughed.

As for the two elders, they couldn't help but blushed when they saw the colorful biscuits, snacks and candies on the plate, and they came to their senses belatedly.

Oh my goodness!Why are there so many old men and old ladies at home?Also, the old man sitting on the top of the kang and occasionally stretching out his hand to pull the pigtails on their heads is the old general Zhai they have seen in the military newspaper before!He is the only old general left, exactly the same as the photo in the newspaper more than ten years ago, but he can laugh so hard that he can hardly see his eyeballs.

In the living room, while everyone was talking, Mrs. Wang and his wife, who usually help cook at home, had already prepared lunch.

Du Haoxuan and the others had dinner at work at noon, so with the addition of seven guests, young and old, the scale of the meal was still not that big!The old man and the child were at the same table, Wang Bing and Li Bin from the front yard were called to accompany them, and Di Yaohui and his old and new comrades were at the same table. !

After the guests and hosts were seated, the broth was boiled with fresh and thick stick bones without first rinsing the meat and vegetables. Mama Du served two plates of freshly rolled dragon beard noodles, "Get the dumplings in the car and come to the door, Mrs. Hu, let's rinsing the children first." Order noodles to pad your stomach!"

Hu Tianshu's daughter-in-law hurriedly took it from Du's mother. Although it had not been half an hour since she entered the door, the family were all good people, and this was Hu Tianshu's daughter-in-law's only idea. [

Eating hot pot is like a hot and lively meal. This meal is very happy.The fat babies Zhang Zhe and Du Wendong didn't need to be fed by Grandma Du and the others, but they were filled up by the Yingzi siblings who were gradually letting go.

The two fat babies rolled on the kang after getting off the dining table, humming and chirping like piglets.But the small eyes kept looking at the hangers where Huzi and their fluffy dog ​​fur hats were hung, looking at the old men and old ladies, but they didn't dare to speak.Although the two of them are small, they also know that if they ask for anything randomly, they will be beaten in the palm of their hands!

Yingzi helped adults take care of his younger brother since he was a child, and was the most sensible. He gave Mama Du and the others a timid look, jumped off the edge of the kang and took off Huzi's dog-skin felt hats, and handed them to the two little fat dolls one by one.

The fat dolls of the two ghosts and ghosts who got what they wanted happily showed a row of small teeth, which dazzled Grandpa Du and the others.The two fat boys barely stretched out their fat arms to push the hats on their foreheads. The brims of the hats covered half of their faces, but the hats were fluffy, soft and slippery. They smiled and stood up from the kang, holding the fat Claw raised his hand in a bow, and while sucking his saliva, he said, "Spray oil! Spread oil!"

Even Di Yaohui twitched the corners of his mouth, and Grandma Du and the others laughed even more so that their stomach hurts. The two boys' ability to do things is comparable to that of Ya'er when they were young.

The adults laughed, and the two fat dolls also followed suit, but Mr. Meng, who didn't know the virtues of the two fat dolls, was having a good time, but at the same time, he was a little puzzled.

"These two fat boys speak English! The foreign devils say thank you is three grams of oil! When Ya'er is at home, sometimes I teach them to read foreign language." Grandpa Du was afraid that Mr. Meng and the others would not understand the foreign language of his precious grandson, so he quickly explained One sentence.Grandpa Du has worked hard to learn English, like three grams of oil, and it still leaks. These are filled in a small book, and he is waiting for his precious granddaughter to take him to travel abroad in the future!

Grandpa Zhai nodded repeatedly, although it was impossible to go abroad casually as an old man, and he had no motivation to learn foreign languages.But Grandpa Du usually always has three grams of oil, and he mutters a lot, and he can speak a few English words more or less.

Di Yaohui turned his head and secretly cleared his throat. Grandpa Li and the young grandpa of the Du family also pretended that their throats were uncomfortable, and couldn't help coughing twice. Even a famous teacher like Ya'er may not be able to produce outstanding disciples!

Hu Tianshu and Meng Dezhu observed the situation, and they could more or less guess that Grandpa Du's explanation of "three grams of oil" might not be reliable.However, Grandpa Du really bluffed Mr. Meng and Hu Tianshu's wife. It turns out that even Mr. Du's family can speak foreign languages!

These two thick-headed and tiger-brained fat babies don't even know how to speak Chinese, so they start learning foreign language?The more Mr. Meng watched, the more he liked it. Seeing Huzi and his hats on the heads of the two fat dolls, and then falling off after shaking them twice, he couldn't help but patted his forehead. I specially made a fox fur hat for the little girl, and made two smaller fur hats out of leftovers, just enough for the two fat dolls to wear.

Mr. Meng was impatient, so he hurriedly asked Meng Dezhu to go outside and bring in the four big bundles. Inside the four bundles were local specialties for Zhai and Du's family.

Just now, during the dinner, I just said that I want to stay in a hotel, and I was criticized by several big brothers.And this big courtyard looks really bright enough, Mr. Meng is not too polite and directly decides to live in it, but the souvenirs have to be sent out quickly!It's my own wish anyway.

Grandpa Du and the others didn't know that Meng Dezhu and the others had traveled all the way to carry four such big burdens and spread them in the living room, which almost frightened Grandpa Du and the others.

And inside the four packages, there are indeed genuine souvenirs.

Hazel mushrooms, pine nuts, fungus, and hazelnuts are not uncommon. Smoked wild rabbits and pheasants, a few Northeast red sausages, two hard roe deer hind legs that are still frozen, and two clean shaved wild boar legs. There are also six big geese that have been slaughtered.

During the three-day and two-night train journey, Hu Tianshu hung the big meat bag outside the car. Now the belly is still hard and fresh.The old men in the family saw that they had just finished lunch, but they were almost drooling!Although the family has never cut off mountain game, it is really not easy to eat such authentic and fresh ones.

The items in these two parcels were souvenirs for visiting relatives and friends, and the remaining two parcels contained all kinds of things. Of course, several of them also had market prices!

Mr. Meng untied a few skins, and carefully took out the bottles and jars of fruit cane in the leather, "This jar is badger oil, this bottle is filled with luminous sand, this bottle is filled with moon sand, and the other bottle It's Wulingzhi. The bottles over there are soaked in snake gallbladder. By the way, there are still half antlers..."

"These are things that are used as medicine! I found that it is not convenient for the eldest daughter to buy and change them in the city. I usually save a lot of food for my daughter!" Mr. Meng remembered very clearly that the eldest daughter lived in the mountains by herself. For a few days, a lot of odds and ends were taken away from the folks, even among the folks, they were all good medicines.

Ya'er grew up under the watchful eyes of his family, and they were all familiar with the Chinese herbal medicine Grandpa Du who was working all day long.Seeing that Mr. Meng kept one bottle after another, the box was wrapped in soft leather, and the box was stuffed with hay, twenty or thirty bottles and jars were not broken or broken, it was really difficult to bring them here from the Northeast.

With such intentions alone, Grandpa Du and the others don't know what to say! [

"Big brother, look...you... hey! We won't say anything, thank you for that girl Ya'er! And Xiao Hu, Xiao Meng, thank you for thinking about Ya'er and them!"

Compared with Hu Tianshu and Meng Dezhu, Mr. Meng is much more talkative. Hearing this, he waved his hands like cattail fans, "Brother, we can't afford to thank you! If it weren't for Xiao Zhai and the eldest daughter who had ideas, Hu He and Mencius don't have such a comfortable day with pockets full of pockets today! Even the folks are all touched! More than half of these things are sent by the folks to me!

There is also Mencius's leg, which was given medicine by the eldest daughter. Although it is still a little lame, it has never hurt again when it is windy and snowy!Let me tell you, if it wasn't for the eldest daughter's suggestion to come to the big hospital for a check-up, just in time for Xiao Zhai and the eldest daughter to get married, we wouldn't make this special trip! "

During the meal, Grandpa Zhai didn't talk much, especially whenever he saw the tall and straight Meng Dezhu dragging a lame leg, his heart felt sore and painful, which was really unpleasant.

After listening to Mr. Meng's words, he couldn't help showing the majesty of the old general, "Hey, big brother, what you said is wrong! Xiao Meng and the others are all heroes. Back then, the army had no conditions, but now you have conditions. We can They can't be delayed any longer. Xiaomeng is in his prime, and he can make a career out of it! What Ya'er and Yaohui are doing is just what they should do! Comrade Meng Dezhu, Comrade Hu Tianshu, you two are representatives today, and I Salute to you unknown heroes! Salute to veterans!"

After Grandpa Zhai finished speaking loudly, he saluted Meng Dezhu and Hu Tianshu with a bang.

Seeing Old General Zhai who was a great general during the Anti-Japanese War, Meng Dezhu and Hu Tianshu both ate their meal more cautiously just now. Although they were at different tables, they were quite flattered to eat with the old general in the same room.

This time when the old general said salute, he saluted. They were so frightened that they were in a hurry, and quickly returned a military salute with a posture mark, straight back, fortitude, fear!

Meng Dezhu and the others are usually loving fathers. It is rare for Xiaoying and Huzi to see their father so heroic, their eyes suddenly brighten up scary.

On the contrary, the two fat dolls in the family can be funny, and they poke their foreheads with their small fists.

Di Yaohui has already helped put away the bottles and jars that Mr. Meng put out, and now there is only one last burden left on the edge of the kang!

Mr. Meng untied the bundle, and Grandpa Du and the others took a look and gasped. The package turned out to be a wolf fur mattress with smooth fur!This gift is a bit too expensive, especially since casual hunting has not been allowed in recent years.

Di Yaohui's face also changed, he was a little suspicious, carrying such a large bag of wolf fur mattresses, how did Meng Dezhu and the others get on the train, and they were not regarded as poachers by the conductor!
