After walking out of the non-staple food store, Li Wen went to the meat stall and cut four kilograms of pork into pieces. He carried the things and walked towards his grandmother's house.

It's been a long time since Li Wen came to his grandpa's house. Today he plans to visit the two elderly people.

As soon as I walked to the alley of my grandpa's house, I saw two boys from my uncle's house, Wang Xiaohu and Wang Xiaoying, beating the walnut tree in front of my grandpa's house with bamboo poles.

"Xiaohu, Xiaoying, what are you doing?" Li Wen greeted the two of them with a smile.

"Cousin, you're here," the two little guys dropped the bamboo poles in their hands and ran over.

"Cousin Awen, let's help you carry the things," the two little guys' eyes lit up when they saw the things Li Wen was carrying, and they hurriedly showed their courtesy.

"Okay, then you two can carry it," Li Wen said with a smile as he handed the pork and fruit to the two little guys.

Opening the door, Li Wen shouted into the room, "Grandma, I'm here to see you and grandpa."

The old man who was enjoying the shade in the yard stood up from his chair.

"Xiao Wen, you're in town today," the old man asked with a smile.

"Isn't it the Mid-Autumn Festival tomorrow? I'm here to see you on behalf of my mother," Li Wen said with a smile.

"Come, sit down, your grandma will be back after going out to pick vegetables for a while," Grandpa pulled Li Wen to sit down.

In recent months, Li Wen would come to his grandpa's house whenever he came to town, and his grandmother's originally thin body had recovered due to Li Wen's constant filial piety.

In fact, grandpa also knew the physical condition of the old lady in front of him, but he had nothing to do. Many elderly people in the village who had no labor force were like this. He gave the saved rations to the next generation. If he could still work and move, he would too.

This is done.

In recent months, the production team has distributed grain from the summer harvest, and Li Wen has taken some rice, noodles, and meat oil from time to time. The old lady also knows that her eldest daughter's family has become rich, and that her grandson is extraordinary, so she has rekindled her passion for life.

hope.

The children of her sons are still young, so she should share more housework with them, and by the way, stay with the old man for a few more years.

Li Wen also thought that whether it is now or in the future, as a parent, who is not like this? Most parents burn themselves to illuminate their children. Even when they are old, they are still using up their last energy to create wealth for their children.

Until it doesn't move.

The old lady came back and was very happy to see Li Wen. In recent months, grandma's body has recovered and her face has gained more flesh, but her pale hair cannot turn black.

Because it was already afternoon, Li Wen did not eat. He sat in the yard talking to his grandparents. The two old people recalled their lives and told stories about raising children. Li Wen listened quietly. He only knew this after he came to this era.

Sometimes sitting quietly next to your family and listening to their nagging words is true filial piety and happiness.

At around five o'clock in the afternoon, Li Wen said goodbye to his grandparents, sent some fruit to his second aunt's house, and then went home with the things he bought today.

In fact, in many places, it is customary for married girls to send mooncakes to their parents during the Mid-Autumn Festival. However, with the development of society, many people have forgotten the custom and only receive cold greetings from mobile communications.

It was already dark when Li Wen returned home, and his family members had all returned. It was still early and they had not eaten yet. Under a few oil lamps, the family was divided into several groups, and several little ones played with the things Li Wen gave them.

Jigsaw puzzle blocks; the eldest brother, the second brother and the second sister were lying on the table reading novels, magazines and storybooks that Li Wen bought from the scrap collection station; the father and the second uncle were sitting in the dining room leisurely drinking cans of tea.

The mother, second aunt and the old lady were sitting aside, chatting and laughing with the husband, and the children were making cloth shoes. They said interesting things from time to time, and everyone laughed.

Li Wen looked at this scene and felt sincerely happy. This is the taste of home. The efforts of the past few months have not been in vain. Now everyone is full and his parents no longer have to worry about food when they go home at night.

Brothers and sisters won’t be able to sleep because they don’t have enough to eat.

"Awen is back. Why did it take so long to go to town today?" Mother looked at Li Wen and said with a smile.

"I went to a hotel in town and visited my grandparents and my second aunt. We spent a long time chatting at my grandma's house," Li Wen said with a smile.

"Are your grandma and the others in good health? I was telling you that tomorrow is the Mid-Autumn Festival and I am going to your grandpa's house to visit Yifan. You kid should be filial to your mother," Wang Chunmei said with a smile.

"Fortunately, I have been in good health recently, and I have gained a lot of weight. I no longer need crutches when I walk. I walk so fast that I can almost catch up with me," Li Wen said with a teasing smile.

"You kid, you are just kidding me. How can your grandma compare with you?" the old lady Guo Xiuyun scolded Li Wenxiao.

Li Wen took off the backpack from his back and took out the things he bought today.

"I sent fruits, moon cakes and two kilograms of pork to my grandma's house. I also sent some fruits and moon cakes to my second aunt's house. We will eat the rest during the Mid-Autumn Festival tomorrow," Li Wen took out the remaining things and put them on the table with a smile.

road.

"Just give it to your grandparents. What can I give it to your second aunt? I won't see your two aunts coming to our house to take a look at me during the Mid-Autumn Festival tomorrow," the old lady complained as she glanced at the things on the table.

Haha! Everyone in the family laughed now, and the old lady was jealous when she saw her daughter-in-law and grandson honoring her parents' family.

"Po, isn't there still tomorrow? Maybe my aunt and the others will come back to see you tomorrow," Li Wen smiled.

In fact, the old lady has not seen her two daughters for several months and misses them a little.

Brother, I want to eat these grapes, peaches and moon cakes. Several little guys have already heard about it and stood by the table looking at the delicious food on the table.

"You can't eat the mooncakes. They will be used tomorrow. You can eat some of the others. Second sister, wash these fruits and let's eat some tonight," Li Wen said with a smile to Li Xiaoxia who was standing aside.

"No, I want to eat mooncakes. I'm going to play today. Wen Qiang also ate mooncakes and didn't let us taste them," Li Tao shouted loudly on the side.

"Eat shit. Do you want to eat shit? Day after day. What else do you want to eat with the white flour steamed buns? Get out of here," the second uncle who was lying on the couch beside him sat up and cursed.

"I won't, I won't," the little guy rolled around in the yard. What Li Wen thought was that he was using the yard as a kang? Things at home have been going well recently. The second uncle hasn't cleaned up the house for a long time.

These two naughty guys made the little guy push his limits a bit!

"The little guy is so bold today, it seems he will be in danger today!" Li Wenxin said.

I saw my second uncle standing up from the couch, taking off his cloth shoes, walking into the yard and holding them, making a slapping sound, which made the little guy cry for father and mother.

Li Wen looked at Li Yong on the side and knew that this guy was the one who instigated Li Tao. This kid was so clever that Li Tao got beaten every time.

"Okay, second child, you can give it a few strokes. Since the child wants to eat, give him a piece. It's not like we don't have any at home now," the old lady said with distress.

The second uncle made more than a dozen cloth shoes to let the little guy know who was the king of the family, and he immediately stood quietly.

Li Wen picked up two pieces of mooncakes and divided them among the little ones, which relieved the heavy atmosphere. The little ones ate the mooncakes and ran aside to play.

Li Wen shook his head. The child was really carefree and easily satisfied. At this time, the second sister washed the fruit and everyone started to taste it.

"These grapes are good, not sour. Last year, Lao Jiu got half a basket of grapes from somewhere and gave me a bunch. They were so sour that my teeth almost fell out," said her mother, Wang Chunmei, smiling as she spat out a mouthful of grape skins.

"Lao Jiu picked wild grapes from his uncle's mountain. When we were young, this guy often took us to pick them. There was a large area on the mountain, but it was too sour," his father Li Deyou said with a smile.

"Eat apples, these apples are good." Li Wen cut two apples. The fruit is yellow and should be called "Marshal Huang." It is sweet and has some yeast in it, so it is delicious.

"We want to eat too," several little guys ran over, and the adults each stuffed some into their hands and then ran away happily.

After eating the fruit, the old lady brought out the soft steamed buns she had made today. The steamed buns everyone had for dinner were stuffed with green chili peppers, which were very good.

Li Wen's life now is very leisurely. He doesn't have to worry about work or go to work. His parents know that he should write quietly and don't let a few little ones disturb him at home.

In the morning, Li Wen went for a run and came to the high slope next to the reservoir, looking at the green trees and river in the distance and immediately relaxed.

"Brother Wenzi, there's your mail package," a few little guys called from the woods far away towards the reservoir.

"Okay, got it!" Li Wen laughed softly.

When he got home, he was still the same postman. Now Li Wen is very familiar with him. This postman is called Liu Haitao, who is from the town. He just took over as a postman last year and is mainly responsible for the post office business that needs to run errands throughout the town.

"Brother Liu, I've been waiting for a long time," Li Wen said with a smile.

"It's okay, Wenzi. I just arrived. Awen, you can do it now. You can send emails several times a month. This is because you have found the secret to writing. You are sitting at home and your monthly income is much more than that of my brother.

"Brother Liu, writing is also very demanding on your brain cells, okay? This is mental work that is also very demanding for me," Li Wen said with a smile.

"Yes, it's all labor, but I use the soles of my feet and you use your wrists," Liu Haitao said with a smile.

"Come on, stop talking and sign for it quickly. It's the Mid-Autumn Festival these days and there are a lot of mail packages," Liu Haitao said, handing a package to Li Wen.

"Okay, Brother Liu, please walk slowly." We will meet again next time we go to town, Li Wen waved his hand.

When I got home and opened the package, there were ten letters, a stack of money notes, and two bottles of malted milk. The top one was a reply from the Youth Daily publisher.

Hello, Comrade "Spring Warm Sun": "According to your request, we did not publish your address to readers, so all letters from readers during this period have been sent to our agency. We have selected some of them to reply and selected them.

I am returning a more sincere letter to you. Some of the money coupons in it are given to you by readers. I hope you keep them. There are also two cans of malted milk which are our holiday gifts to you."

Li Wen counted the money stamps and found that there were more than two hundred yuan in total, as well as dozens of kilograms of national food stamps, as well as some gas stamps, cloth stamps, non-staple food stamps and many other types.

Li Wen collected most of the money stamps, leaving only twenty yuan outside, as well as more than ten kilograms of national food stamps, several kilograms of sugar stamps, and malted milk powder given by the newspaper.

Li Wen put a jar of malted milk in his room and took the other jar to the old lady's room.

"Awen, the perks of writing are great. The newspaper company also gave you a holiday gift. I only heard the old lady from the village who joined the army said that this malted milk is good and nutritious. This is the first time I have seen it," the old lady said happily.

.

"Let me make some for you," Li Wen took out a small bowl, scooped some into the bowl and dissolved it with warm water.

"This is so fragrant. It smells like milk and tastes sweet. It's not bad," the old lady said with a smile and a lick of her lips.

"Mom, you can drink this jar by yourself. This stuff is good for your health. Don't take it out to entertain others. This jar only costs ten yuan." I also have a jar there, which I will share with my family. Li Wen looked at it

The old lady said.

"Okay, okay, I understand, keep it for yourself and drink it," the old lady said happily stroking Li Wen's hand.

"Po, my aunt is here," little Li Juan who was outside the door ran in and shouted.

"Mom, I'm here to visit you during the Mid-Autumn Festival today," the aunt came in with her second cousin Zhao Jianjun.

"Okay, come, everyone, sit down. The old lady took Li Xiulan's hand and sat by the kang. Lanzi, you haven't been home for several months."

"This is not because there are many things at home. After my mother-in-law and we separated the year before last year, time was suddenly tight. I had to cook for the Red Army and the Liberation Army, and I had to take care of a few children. Today is not a half-day break. I
