() Lu Yang stood at the corner of the corridor, taking deep breaths again and again, and finally made little Yangyang calm down.
call……
Lu Yang exhaled a breath, feeling a little embarrassed about his performance just now.
What did I think of Sister Xiu?
Was that just a normal reaction of hormones?
Lu Yang knew that this explanation could not hide his sincerity.
Before elementary school, Lu Yang and Wei Zhixiu were very, very close.
Xiao Luyang, who was a few years old at that time, often pestered his little sister to play together, eat from the same bowl, sleep on the same bed, and even take a bath together.
After entering elementary school, Lu Yang had many friends, but visiting the Wei family every weekend and summer vacation, and pestering the little sister was also a regular part of his life.
In the third grade, a male classmate in the class sneakily stole pornographic books from home. Lu Yang had read the books at that time and was confused, so he wanted to find someone to understand.
He wasn't stupid either. He knew that it would be terrible if he harassed the female classmates around him and was reported to the teacher, so he used his crooked idea on Wei Zhixiu.
At that time, Wei Zhixiu was in junior high school in the county middle school and was at home during the summer vacation. After Lu Yang Qiqi Ai Ai told her, she was of course angry at first, but she still couldn't resist Lu Yang's obsession.
So that summer afternoon, on that canopy bed, Lu Yang untied Wei Zhixiu's clothes and truly observed the difference between women and men for the first time.
Many details of his childhood memories have been blurred, but Lu Yang can never forget them.
In that dim room, there was a shy, red face covered with sweat, a pair of tightly closed red eyes with fluttering eyelashes, and a small red mouth that was panting slightly and urging constantly.
This picture will remain in Lu Yang's heart forever.
I am so urgent and want to take Wei Zhixiu away. Is it because I know that her marriage will be unhappy and want to save it for her, or because I don't want that scene to be seen by other men?
Lu Yang shook his head, hiding his conflicting feelings.
In short, I want sister Xiu to be happy, and this thought has never gone away in my two lifetimes.
If you didn’t have that kind of ability in your previous life, you can’t just sit on the sidelines in this life!
Lu Yang made up his mind and walked out.
"Yangyang?"
A surprising voice sounded with a sense of vicissitudes of life, and the old man who spoke was Lu Yang's second grandfather Wei Hongcheng. He was in his early sixties, and his back was a bit hunched due to long-term farming, but he was in excellent spirits.
Seeing that it was Lu Yang, Wei Hongcheng dropped the fishing gear in his hand, walked up to Lu Yang in a few steps, looked up and down, and rubbed the mud in his hands on his clothes, with an expression of disbelief still on his face.
"Grandpa!"
Lu Yang gave a sweet cry and hugged the old man regardless of the dirt on his clothes.
"Why are you here?" Wei Hongcheng looked surprised.
"I just wanted to come and take a look." Lu Yang smiled.
"Okay, have you eaten?" Wei Hongcheng pulled Lu Yang to a chair and sat down.
"I ate at grandma's place."
Then Wei Hongcheng chattered and started asking about the current situation of Lu Yang's family, whether Lu Jiangan's recent job as director was going well or not, whether there were any problems with Zhang Shufen's job transfer, and how Lu Yang was doing with his studies.
Lu Yang smiled and responded one by one.
"Grandpa, Xiao Yang, is here for dinner."
Wei Zhiwu stuck his head out, but didn't dare to go in. He was scolded by his grandfather every day for causing trouble in Zhongshan.
"Fifth brother, I've eaten!"
Lu Yang raised his voice and replied.
"Grandpa, you go to eat, I have to go back."
"Okay, wait a minute, I have something to bring to your mother."
After speaking, Wei Hongcheng turned around and entered the room. After a while, he came out, handed over a brown paper envelope, held Lu Yang's hand and gave instructions.
"Don't let your dad know, lest he think too much, just give it to your mom, and be sure not to drop it."
Lu Yang held it in his hand and already understood what it was. He didn't say anything, he just held his grandfather's hand and held back tears.
There are people in this world who are not related by blood, but are closer than family members.
"It's a good thing that your family is moving to the city. Remember to come home and have a look when you have time, eh?"
The wrinkles on Wei Hongcheng's face were squeezed into a ball, and he gently patted Lu Yang's hand.
Lu Yang knew that his grandfather was worried that he would not be able to take pictures in the future.
"Well, grandpa, I will definitely come back when I have time!"
Lu Yang spoke firmly and made a promise in his heart.
"By the way, grandpa, let me tell you something."
"Okay, tell me." Wei Hongcheng nodded repeatedly.
"My dad is not leaving this time. He wants fifth brother and third sister to come with me and my mother during this period, play for a while and then come back."
"Is this what your mother meant?" Wei Hongcheng naturally did not expect that this would be Lu Yang's idea.
"The main factory must have been quite chaotic at the beginning. It would take half a year for my dad to get there. There are more people in the main factory and more people will take care of him."
Lu Yang made a subtle move and hinted that this was his father's idea.
"Okay, then we'll pick them up when the time comes."
Wei Hongcheng didn't expect that much. Anyway, the farming season is slack now, not to mention that there is a second daughter-in-law at home, the second son is at home most of the time, the fifth son and the third daughter are also free at home, so there has been nothing in the past period of time.
"Okay, grandpa, I'm leaving, you go and eat quickly!"
After saying goodbye, Lu Yang walked out for more than ten steps and stopped, holding back tears that kept falling.
The thick brown paper envelope in my hand probably contains at least seventy pieces of the Four Great Men.
In this era when the 500-yuan salary of the cadres at the Red Shipyard was often not paid, this should be more than half of the Wei family's savings.
The old man handed it to him without any care, and he was worried about his father's face, so he ordered it to be given to his mother quietly.
At this time, Lu Yang thought, those bullshit misunderstandings and those bullshit situations should get out!
But at this time, grandpa probably couldn’t have imagined that so many things would happen in the next six months.
Some may have already happened, and some have not happened yet.
Lu Yang also just remembered that just these days, his eldest brother Wei Zhihao, who was far away in the Chinese herbal medicine market in Chongshan, was sent to prison for stealing business with another group of competitors and hurting people. He was sentenced to five years in the end, and it took him three years to survive.
come out.
After thinking about it, he probably didn't have time to stop this, so Lu Yang could only bury it in his heart.
But when this incident happened, not only did the Wei family have to lose money, but the Chinese herbal medicine stall was also gone. It took a lot of connections and filial piety to get this stall.
Originally, the continuous changes in national policies in recent years have had a great impact on the medicinal materials business in Yaoquan Township. The tax-sharing system was reformed in 1994. Since the top took the bulk, the bottom had to find money for themselves if they had enough to eat.
Yaoquan Township has little arable land and underdeveloped agriculture and industry and commerce, let alone industry and commerce. After the agricultural specialty tax was levied in 1994, medicinal materials were naturally targeted. All kinds of taxes and fees were spread on medicinal materials. This is
At that time, the medicinal material business in Yaoquan Township was hit hard.
This is just the beginning. In 1996, the local government started to build towns, remove districts and merge townships. Yaoquan Township rushed to the market, merged several townships and upgraded it to Yaoquan Town. The scale expanded, and there were more uncles eating the royal grain, which naturally squeezed the local medicine farmers.
That's more.
For a while, there was a popular saying about medicinal springs: Since ancient times, every family has been growing medicinal materials, but now every household is destroying medicine boats.
Medicine boat is basically owned by every local farmer. It is a tool for preparing traditional Chinese medicine, and it is also the origin of the name of the local village.
However, some uncles who ate the royal grain satisfied their own desires, but made local farmers afraid to do this business anymore.
Originally, since the Wei family had no stall, they could only work as vendors, but now that they have encountered such bad things, it is even more difficult to do business.
In addition, when the second brother Wei Zhiwen was involved in an accident, the villagers who killed him had no money. There was no state compensation at this time, and the funeral cost a lot.
The Wei family's finances were very difficult at one time. Although Lu Yang's family was also in difficulty at that time, his parents still squeezed out a lot of scrap money from their teeth and sent it over.
It was almost past seven o'clock when we arrived at my grandma's shop. At this time, there were gradually more workers coming off the night shift, and the shop became somewhat popular.
Lu Yang greeted his grandmother and started riding his bicycle towards his home under the moonlight.
By this time, it was completely dark, and there was only one dangerous street lamp far away in the countryside.
In the past, Lu Yang rarely went out alone at night, and he felt a little nervous while walking.
But after a few minutes it got much brighter. A five-story reinforced concrete building stood on the side of the road. There were lights a few hundred meters away. It was a residential building in a family area.
Most of the buildings in the Red Shipyard were built in the late 1960s and are red brick buildings. Only the building in front of me is relatively rare.
It was originally a three-story red brick canteen building. After a fire in the 1980s, this complex was newly built. In addition to being a canteen, it also has many other functions.
The first floor was originally a cafeteria, but now a pink neon light was hung outside, and a burst of dance music came from inside.
"I won't go, I really won't go, please!"
The cry of mercy rang out, and Lu Yang looked up and saw two boys dragging and forcibly dragging a short girl towards them.
Lu Yang originally didn't want to cause trouble, but after seeing the girl's face clearly, he stopped the car.
"Wu Mingfa, what's the point of bullying a girl?"
Wu Mingfa is not the son of an employee of the Red Shipyard, but is from the nearby Banpo Village. However, his uncle is the chief of the security department of the Red Shipyard and went to the children's school of the Red Shipyard through the back door. He should have graduated from the third grade of junior high school now.
Because his family was rich, Wu Mingfa usually gathered a group of so-called younger brothers around him to show off his power, tease female classmates, and bully single-earner households.
However, he has a farmer's registered permanent residence. Although his food and clothing are much better than those of workers' children, not many people in the children's school think highly of him.
When he saw it was Lu Yang, Wu Mingfa suddenly felt bad and glared fiercely.
"Lu Yang, nothing happens without you!"
Although Wu Mingfa's expression was ruthless, he lacked the confidence to face Lu Yang. He and Lu Yang fought several times but never took advantage.
Not only was Lu Yang taller than him by a head, but he also had good physical fitness, and he was also fierce in fights. He even failed to win a three-on-one fight.
Seeing that the other boy had an unfamiliar face, he was probably a single-earner in his third year of junior high school, Lu Yang looked disdainful and flexed his hands and feet.
"Wen Xiaoli's father is my father's subordinate. I have to take care of her affairs. You choose, have a fight with me, or get out."
"you……"
Wu Mingfa had no choice but to put down his harsh words.
