Fengcheng old events

Chapter 352 The Hero Is Old
Although the memory of his childhood was blurred, he still had it, and knowing the building number, Zhang Xinglong found his uncle's house without much effort.

It was my aunt who opened the door.

The old lady is almost 60, and the youngest child is married and has a hunchback. Zhang Xinglong is completely out of tune with the blurred image in his memory. It has been 15 years in a flash.

"Aunt." Zhang Xinglong called out.

"Well, come in, I really found it." The old lady smiled and let Zhang Xinglong enter the room.

"Where's my uncle?"

"At home, I didn't go to work today."

Liu Zhaorui, who was already gray-haired, came out from the back room: "Come here? It's pretty fast, I'm afraid you won't be able to find it." His waist was also bent, his breathing was heavy, and there was a murmur of wheezing and wheezing.

"Uncle. I still have a little impression in my heart. Didn't I come here when I was a child?"

"What happened before that?" Liu Zhaorui thought for a while: "[-] years? [-] years? I can't even remember, but you have a good memory. How long ago have you come to Shenyang?"

"It's been more than two months. I've been living in a dormitory before I took the test for a chef's ticket. Now I'm an intern, so I won't be allowed to live there."

"Oh, come live at home, there is a bed. Have you found a place for internship?"

"Go into the room and tell me, what are you doing standing here?" My aunt said.

"This room, you can live in this room. Those who are idle, that is, Yueli and the others will come back to live for a while. You lived in this room when you came here, remember? You also peed on my bed .”

"Hey." Zhang Xinglong was a little embarrassed.

"You are in good health now? You look pretty strong."

"It's good. It's not good when I was a child. It will be fine after I go to junior high school. I still have energy."

"You are in good health. You can do things when you are in good health. Are you going to be a chef in the future?"

"No, I'm working in a factory, Bengang, I just want to learn, I opened a restaurant for Xiang's family."

"Are you all right? How old are you this year?"

"Nineteen, I was born in [-]." Northeast said that his age was considered false, he happened to be nineteen this year, and his birthday was old, so it would be after the new year.

"Young man, in a flash, it's been so many years." Liu Zhaorui was a little touched.

"That's right, it's been [-], and it will be [-] soon." My aunt sat on the head of the bed and beat her legs.

There are two wooden beds against the two walls in the room.Only cadres are treated.The old-fashioned cast-iron radiators were rusty, but the temperature was good enough to keep the room warm.

"Are your parents okay?"

"It's okay, my dad just goes to work every day, and my mom hasn't had a stall this year, so she said she plans to do something else."

"Are you doing business?"

"Well, I just started selling popsicles, and then I started selling fruits and vegetables when I was in junior high school, but I was a little tired. My mother even got hurt by a car handle, and her bones were broken."

"Tsk," Liu Zhaorui pursed his lips, looked at the ground and didn't know what he was thinking, stayed for a while, and asked, "Is there anything wrong with your body?"

"No, it's been fine all the time, and I haven't even been to the hospital."

"That's good, that's good." Liu Zhaorui nodded slowly: "You can live here, there are people at home every day, and your aunt is at home every day, do you have anything? Move here, don't live outside, the house can Get some sleep."

"Well, okay, I'll bring my things here tonight, it's nothing, just a bed of luggage and some clothes."

"Come here, just eat it if you don't mind, it's not as good as the food outside."

"Where are my brother and sister?" There are only old couples in the family.

"They're all married. Your young lady is about to give birth. It's spring. Your eldest brother lives in the army, and his father-in-law's. They usually come back a lot. The children are all running around, making a fuss."

Liu Zhaorui has only one son, Liu Tongxi, and three daughters, Ximeimei Yueyueli.The father-in-law Liu Tongxi is Liu Zhaorui's old comrade-in-arms. He has been working in the army until he is retired. He lives in the cadre rest center of the military region and holds a deputy military position.

Liu Tongxi works in the army, so it's more convenient to live there.

The three daughters are all in government units, and they are all married and have their own families.

Maybe it's because he's getting older, but whenever Liu Guixin and Liu Zhaofeng are mentioned, Liu Zhaorui is a little silent, a little sad, talking about my younger siblings.Brother and sister.

It turned out that he didn't care much about Zhang Jingyi, so he just asked casually, knowing that he was still there, and was living in Liu Guixin's home for the elderly.

……

In the evening, Zhang Xinglong happily carried the luggage bag to his uncle's house, it was stable, he had a place to stay, so he didn't have to worry about it.As for looking for work, he didn't care much at all, it was just that the young man didn't want to go back to Nanfen.

What's more, there is no shortage of money.

In this way, Zhang Xinglong stayed at his uncle's house, came back to eat and sleep at night, went out to find work during the day, wandered around, talked to classmates, and played.

……

"Auntie, what are you going to do?"

Back at my uncle's house at night, my aunt was busy in the kitchen, Zhang Xinglong went in and asked.

"Your uncle wants to eat liver, so I bought some. I'm not very good at making this. I usually eat less, and I think it smells fishy."

"Let me figure it out, should it be fried or braised?"

"Stir-fry, let's fry it. Your uncle likes it. Put less salt, your uncle won't be able to eat salt, and if you eat a little, you won't be able to breathe."

As he got older, the gunshot wound on Liu Zhaorui's lung affected his body more and more. He couldn't walk, he couldn't exert himself, and he couldn't eat salty food. OK.

My aunt accompanied him to eat these basically non-salty meals, and lived like this for a lifetime.

There are some framed pictures on the wall in the house, and some pictures are placed inside.It turns out that many homes have such arrangements.

Zhang Xinglong likes to stand by the wall and look at the photos of his uncle's family when he is free, the pictures of his brothers and sisters from childhood to adulthood, and the photos of his uncle when he was young.Wearing military uniform, very handsome.

Zhang Xinglong had seen a photo of his biological grandfather, his uncle looked very similar to his grandfather, handsome, handsome, and somewhat refined and bookish.

But at this moment, it is very difficult for the uncle to let Zhang Xinglong overlap him with these old photos.

Looking at the old photos of his uncle in military uniform and the military medal on his chest, Zhang Xinglong was a little fascinated by the heroic figure of him leading the whole battalion of soldiers to break through the US blockade against the US bombers.

Blood boiling feeling.

He really wanted to hear his uncle tell the story of that time, but no matter how he asked his uncle, he just smiled and didn't want to say anything. When he said it, he said: "It's passed, it's been so many years, why mention him."

Zhang Xinglong had seen some introductions about that battle from newspapers and books. At that time, the biggest casualties were not the frontal battlefield, but the supply line.

Laomei has planes, tanks, and cannons, which can cover all the way to the Yalu River, and the entire sky is theirs.

And we don't even have a few anti-aircraft machine guns, so we can't organize large-scale air defense battles at all.Only hiding, hiding, and relying on concealment and maneuvering to confuse the enemy.

The supply transportation line has become the key target of the entanglement between the two sides.

Liu Zhaorui is the commander of the car battalion in charge of transportation, and his achievements are all made in the hail of bullets.

Now, the hero of the year is old.
