The Rebirth of the Portable Space The Red Age

Wang Yazhi listened intently to the naughty words of the three children, holding the hands of the three of them, but she couldn't bear to let go, even her eyes were a little moist.If my two sons were still alive, would I have such big grandchildren now? Are they like the three brothers and sisters in front of me, the boy is lively and naughty, and the girl is cute and cute.Everything in front of me is like a dream. In the dream, the three generations of grandparents and grandchildren are gathering together to share the happiness of the family.

Seeing that his wife lost her composure, Li Qingyuan couldn't help explaining to the Du family couple, "Don't blame your wife for losing her composure. Your Aunt Wang is very happy. The family hasn't been this lively in many years. I won't hide it. You, in fact, our old couple also have two sons, but ".

Although Ya'er was teasing in front of Grandma Wang, thanks to her keen hearing, she heard everything Li Qingyuan said without saying a word.In fact, it is very old-fashioned, and it is not uncommon in this era, wars, family destruction, persecution, and staying away.In fact, even in my own family, there are two uncles and grandfathers who still have all the news.This is the sorrow and sorrow of people living in this era. They can only endure and accept it silently until the moment of dawn. Before that, nothing can be done.

Li Qingyuan and Wang Yazhi were considered childhood sweethearts, and the two families were considered old friends. At that time, their families were considered big families in the local area.Influenced by the new ideas, the two went abroad to study together when they were just teenagers, but before the two returned from their studies, the country was already full of wars, and their families were also killed by the wars.Later, the two finally returned to China, settled down in the capital, and their two sons grew up.But before the two sons had time to start a family and start a business, they secretly joined the army to resist US aggression and aid Korea without telling them.The war was over, and all that came back was the news of the two men's heroic sacrifices and the title of martyr.

Even though Li Qingyuan and Wang Yazhi had experienced wars, life and death, and were strong-minded, they almost couldn't bear the blow.The most painful thing in the world is that a white-haired person sends a black-haired person. It took several years for the husband and wife to slowly recover from this heavy blow, and they were ready to devote all their energy to work. Unexpectedly The vigorous red revolution has begun again. [

The two who have been abroad and have stayed abroad are easy to be criticized, and it is the title of martyr of the sons that protects them from persecution.Seeing friends and colleagues around them being criticized constantly, friends framing each other, and husband and wife being divorced, the disheartened old couple accepted the advice of their son and comrades-in-arms to stay away from the core of the struggle and come to this small remote county.

Because the youngest son had saved the life of that comrade in arms, and that comrade in arms is now one of the heads of the garrison in this province, for this reason, the two have finally lived here in peace and stability for the past few years.And Li Qingyuan's work in the acquisition department was also arranged by that comrade, because Li Qingyuan really couldn't take time off.In the past, the Li family was also a well-known family of Chinese medicine in the local area. Although Li Qingyuan did not study Chinese medicine abroad, he was familiar with Chinese herbal medicine from a young age, so he got this relatively leisurely job in the drug purchasing department.Wang Yazhi's health is not particularly good due to repeated blows, and her specialty is foreign languages, she can't find a suitable job in this small county, and such expertise is easy to be criticized by others, they don't want to finally find peace It was destroyed, so I have been unemployed at home to concentrate on taking care of my wife's life.

Apart from this job and peace, the old couple is unwilling to accept too much care from that comrade-in-arms, and they rarely interact with him.The two didn't have any relatives, and because they moved here later, during this special period, the neighbors around them looked at them with scrutiny and scrutiny. Usually, almost no one came to the house. The days are getting more and more lonely.The arrival of Ya'er's family today brought the long-lost warmth and excitement to the old couple, which made the old couple lose their composure with excitement.

Ya'er has a personal experience of their feelings, and those who have not experienced it personally cannot experience the feeling of loneliness.When you are happy, no one shares your happiness, and when you are in pain, no one shares your pain. It is a kind of loneliness and coldness from the bottom of your heart. There is no way to keep warm, and you can only endure it slowly until you become numb.The more leisurely you are, the more lonely you are. You can only keep busy and numb yourself.

The atmosphere followed Li Qingyuan's narration, and everyone slowly fell silent, and the atmosphere fell into silence for a while.Brothers Haoyu and Haoxuan, who were cheerful all day long and fighting cocks and dogs, came to their senses first, "Grandpa Li, Grandma Wang, if my father agrees, and you don't dislike us for making trouble, we will come to see you often in the future." You guys. When we were at home, my grandpa would beat us up all day long, because he disliked us for making trouble." It happened to be a chance to see the county town. Of course, the two brothers didn't dare to say the last sentence.

Li Qingyuan and Wang Yazhi also laughed when they heard this. Yes, they also have relatives now. Although they are far away and cannot see each other often, they always have something to look forward to. "Come on, Haoyu, Haoxuan, and Xiao Ya'er, eat toffee. This is what your grandpa Li bought at the department store yesterday. It's delicious." Wang Yazhi opened a box on the table, It was filled with toffee, and each of them stuffed them into their hands.

Hearing this, the two brothers, the crescent moon's smiling face suddenly turned into a full moon, and then looked at the faces of Du's father and Du's mother, and then took the toffee handed by Grandma Wang. Yes, no wonder Ya'er always comes with dad.Such a large handful of toffee is enough for several days, and I will share some with Xiaohai and Xiaojiang when I go back.

The four adults looked at the three children, with candy in their mouths, their cheeks puffed up, and they vaguely talked to everyone about the fast car they saw just now. The department store in the small building suddenly became lively again.Until the impassioned voice sounded, "Comrades of the bourgeois revolutionaries, revolutionary comrades, it is now twelve o'clock at noon, and the broadcast will start below."

The impassioned voice startled the Ya'er family, but Li Qingyuan and his wife were used to it, so they didn't react much.Although Haoyu and Haoxuan were taken aback, they still jumped up and down looking for the sound.The two brothers searched for a long time before they found a small wooden box behind the door, and the sound came from there.Then the two scratched their heads and studied how the sound came out, whether there was someone inside, otherwise how could someone talk, and if there was someone, how did they get in, this small box is too small.

When they returned home, the two brothers didn't research to understand what was going on. Before they left, they didn't forget to tell Li Qingyuan, "Grandpa Li, why don't you go to bed later at night and help us find out who is talking inside?" , How did he get into such a small place, and learned that next time we can go in and broadcast.”At that time, some childish words amused everyone.Ya'er sees a rare opportunity, "Brother, little brother, I heard from Uncle Zhang that there are textbooks that teach how to broadcast. If you study hard, you will definitely know what's going on in the future, and you will also follow Ya Is the broadcast good?"After some words, the two little brothers who were talking were stunned for a while, secretly determined that they must study hard after returning home, and must figure out what's going on.The four adults looked at Xiao Ya'er, coaxing the two elder brothers to study hard, and couldn't help laughing secretly, this little girl is really a big kid.

In fact, there is a paper cone-shaped speaker inside the wooden box, which was called broadcasting box, horn, and box in this era.Every morning and evening, sometimes at noon, revolutionary songs, □quotes, newspapers, local good people and good things or announcements are played.Unfortunately, the commune where Qinghewan is located is far away from the county seat and in the hinterland of the mountains, so it can't receive signals at all at ordinary times, so the Ya'er family has never seen this thing.

In this special era, cultural life is very scarce, and ordinary people can only listen to the radio three times a day in the morning, noon, and evening through it. After dinner, listening to the radio was the only entertainment for the common people at that time.And every broadcast starts with "Dongfanghong" and ends with "Sailing the Seas Rely on the Helmsman".After listening to it all the year round, almost everyone can hum a few times "sea navigation depends on the helmsman, and a happy life depends on feelings".

The impassioned sound of the radio reminded Wang Yazhi that it was already twelve o'clock at noon, and she hadn't cooked yet.I hurriedly got up and went to the kitchen to get busy. I must make a delicious meal for the children today.Seeing this, Mama Du hurried to help in the kitchen, how could she keep the old man busy and just sit here by herself.The two soon became like mothers-in-law, chatting and laughing and busy in the kitchen, both thinking of showing off their talents, and lunch was ready in half an hour.In fact, before Ya'er's family came, Grandma Wang had already prepared all the dishes that needed to be washed and cut.When Mama Du saw the chicken, fish, and meat prepared in the kitchen, she felt very uneasy, and she couldn't help but rejoice again that her family finally came. If they didn't, it would hurt the two old people who are looking forward to family affection. heart.

The strong smell of rice attracted the attention of the two brothers who were still studying the broadcast box. In their opinion, the sky is big and the earth is big, and the stomach is the biggest when it is full.Before the dishes were served, the strong smell of meat made the two brothers almost drool, and continued to study the small box regardless, and hurriedly took Ya'er to the yard to wash their hands, and sat down obediently , I really can't wait for dinner.Even Ya'er couldn't help swallowing, she couldn't control it.

Grandma Wang prepared a rich meal, a large pot of stewed tofu with Chinese cabbage, a large bowl of braised chicken nuggets, a steamed fish weighing two catties, a plate full of braised pork, a large pot of pure white flour steamed buns, and finally a Bottles of canned yellow peaches in syrup, these meals are even richer than during the Chinese New Year. Du's father and Du's mother felt the enthusiasm of the two old people again.Grandpa Li also took out a bottle of Moutai from the cabinet. This bottle of wine was brought over from the capital at that time. Because no one drank it with him, he kept it until now. It happened that he was happy today, and he was accompanied by someone. stand up.
