Youthful Splendid Edge

Chapter 53
After Zhang Liang and Ye Fanghua got married, Father Ye and Aunt Niu felt relieved. Although the young couple were in the middle of their newlyweds, when they were glued to each other, it was only half a year before Zhang Liang got a letter of appointment. Was transferred to BJ by the organization.

After Zhang Liang left, Ye Fanghua's burden became even heavier. Not only did she have to take care of her elderly father and Aunt Niu, but she also had to find ways to work outside to earn money. Mention and touch, but thanks to the organization's care, those anti-forces did not dare to be too ruthless towards Ye Fanghua, so although life is poor, at least it is still stable.

After another year, a turning point was finally ushered in. Under heavy pressure on the organization, the Ministry of Light Industry planned to arrange a group of craftsmen from all over the country to go abroad, and Ye Fanghua and Liu Yan were on the list of this batch of going abroad.

In 1969, under the arrangement of the organization, Ye Fanghua and Liu Yan went to Albania to start a one-year teaching career.

To say that Ye Fanghua was most worried about two old people who were in poor health, Ye Er and Aunt Niu, who entrusted Tu Jun to take care of them before leaving.

Since this indescribable turmoil started, the dormitory of the cooperative was also closed. Tu Jun moved to Ye Er's house, which could save the cost of renting a house outside, and also facilitate Zhang Liang and Ye Fanghua to take care of the two elderly people.

On the other hand, Susan chose to stay in SZ because of her family relationship. After all, the Su family has been ransacked several times now, and it has long lost its original glory. important task.

Tu Jun saw it in his eyes and felt pain in his heart. After all, he was Lao Ye's disciple, and he was well-known in the cultural circle, so even if Tu Jun expressed his protection to Susan's family no matter what, those people Because of public opinion, they dare not do too much.

Since Zhang Liang and Ye Fanghua left one after the other, within a few months, Aunt Niu passed away due to illness.

In fact, Aunt Niu has been in poor health for a long time. First, she learned that her eldest son Zhang Ming died for the country on the battlefield, and then her husband passed away. Now her younger son Zhang Liangyuan is transferred to BJ. Although Tu Jun is taking care of him, he is also accompanied by Ye Er. , but I still miss my son in my heart. Coupled with the natural disasters in recent years, this hurdle has not been passed.

When Aunt Niu left like this, Zhang Liang, who was far away in BJ, wanted to go back desperately, but was stopped by the organization. Tu Jun also knew how severe the situation has been in recent years, and how many families have been killed because of this environment. Thinking of many tragedies, Tu Jun endured it, strengthened his belief and determination, wholeheartedly supported the belief of an unyielding communist, and fought on the front line with those reactionary forces, natural disasters and man-made disasters.

After Aunt Niu left like this, Ye Er's life became even more lonely and sad. He curled up at home all day and didn't want to go anywhere.

Tu Jun was able to take care of Ye Er's diet and daily life, but he couldn't change the old man's heart. Although he did some emotional comfort, it had little effect.

The days passed day by day, and Ye Er's health was getting worse and worse. Tu Jun sent Ye Er to the hospital for an examination, but at that time, the medical level was limited, and it was only treated as a simple cold.

As a soldier, Ye Er also had a face of indifference. Apart from looking at things and thinking about people at home all day long, he would cry at Ye Fanghua's letter, and then played the trumpet he used when he was a soldier.

The more Ye Er was like this, the more worried Tu Jun became.

Sure enough, after a while, Ye Er often coughed non-stop, especially at night, and sometimes even coughed bloodshot, because Ye Er didn't want to bother Tu Jun, so he concealed it.

On this day, Tu Jun and Ye Er had just had dinner, and they were sitting in the yard enjoying the cool air. Ye Er picked up the trumpet again, stared at Ye Fanghua's letter with tears on his face, and started to play.

Tu Jun was sitting on a small stool, listening to Ye Er playing the familiar melody, he couldn't help being a little puzzled, while gesturing at Ye Er, he asked Ye Er: "Uncle Ye, why do you always play this tune?"

Ye Er stopped blowing the horn, touched the tear stains on his face with his withered hands, and explained to Tu Jun with gestures.

It turns out that this melody is very simple. It repeats the same tone when it comes and goes. It is the melody that Ye Er usually uses to collect garbage. Only by playing this melody can Ye Er find the simple happiness and joy of the past in the depths of his memory. .

I still remember that when Ye Fanghua was young, in order to take care of Ye Fanghua, Ye Er could only sit Ye Fanghua on one side of the small tricycle, and Ye Fanghua would chirp along with the melody played by Ye Er. Looking at the tatters, while singing and laughing happily.

That simple happiness, that simple joy, seems to be a thing of the past.

For the sake of the motherland, Ye Er lost his voice, and for Ye Fanghua, Ye Er lost the right to form a family, but Ye Er did not regret it at all, because the arrival of this little life gave Ye Er infinite vitality, and Ye Er also joined the family. Enjoying the happiness and joy of a complete home.

Ye Er calmly talked about the past with gestures. Those simple pasts were not eye-catching, but they shocked Tu Jun a lot.

At night, after sending Ye Er back to his room to rest, Tu Jun couldn't calm down for a long time, his thoughts rushing like a spring like a gate.

Since you can't sleep, you can only put your love on the pen and paper, which is also a major characteristic of literati.

What even Tu Jun didn't expect was that his unintentional act today made this poem adapted into a song, adapted into a movie, and finally created a scene where thousands of people were empty-handed, and almost everyone was caught by the rhetoric written by Tu Jun I was moved to tears, of course this is something to say later.

After several days of sleepless nights and repeated revisions, Tu Jun finally wrote down the best poem he thought he had written in his life, and then threw the notebook in his briefcase. As for the original manuscript, it had already been placed in the drawer of Ye Fanghua’s home , to forget.

After another month or so, Ye Er also passed away due to illness, and the huge two houses were left empty.

Tu Jun originally planned to wait for Zhang Liang and Ye Fanghua to come back, and then he would retire, but what he didn't expect was that something happened to Susan's family at this time.

Those reactionary forces found some Suzhou embroidery during the search, which was equivalent to being labeled as an anti-organization at that time.

　Well, I borrowed the stalk of taking the wrong car here, and I used it when I thought it was suitable, and I will describe it slowly later.
