For Hong Wu's family, it would be more luxurious to have a meal of meat, and if you are lucky, you can also make some game, but only keep a little, and sell the rest in the town to supplement the family.

"Where's Dad?" Hong Wu asked.

"He, he's going to your Uncle Wang's house to play chess." Zhou Huiyue said with a smile.

Before the words fell, a man with a cane walked into the house, he took off his hat, revealing a tough face, with a hint of majesty between his eyebrows, this man is Hong Wu's father Hong Tianping, but Hong Tianping's right foot is a little lame, Hong Wu heard his mother say that this is his father's injury on the battlefield.

"Balance, how is the battle going today?" Zhou Huiyue took the hat and slapped off the snow on it and quipped.

"Damn it, that calf of Lao Wang, don't say it!" Hong Tianping suddenly blew his beard and glared at him, as if he had been treated unfairly.

Zhou Huiyue handed a cup of hot tea to her husband and said with a smile: "You, it's better to go out less on this snowy day." ”

"Good, good, good." Hong Tianping said three times in a row, otherwise he would have to receive education again, and walked to the stove with his cane.

Hong Wu looked at his limping father very distressed, walked forward and asked, "Dad, tomorrow will be the Chinese New Year's Eve, what do you want to eat?" ”

Hong Tianping looked at his son and said carefully: "I don't care what I eat, I only care who I eat with." ”

"Yes." Hong Wu nodded, but Hong Wu decided to go to the town tomorrow and buy some meat to make up for his family.

Hong Tianping waved his hand: "Stinky boy, roast a sweet potato to pad my stomach." ”

"Brother~ I want one too." Hong Weiwei, who started to write his winter vacation homework, also shouted for one.

"Son, mom wants one too." Zhou Huiyue shouted in her daughter's tone.

Hong Wu also couldn't laugh or cry, and began to prepare dinner, roasted sweet potatoes and cabbage soup.

When night falls, the houses in the small village all glow faintly, because there is no electricity, there are candles here, but Hong Wu's house still uses that kind of oil lamp.

A family of four sat at the square table, eating simple food, but with Hong Weiwei, a living treasure, here, it was a lot of joy, and Hong Wu also smiled from time to time.

At this time, Hong Wu suddenly put down his chopsticks, and his face became serious.

Seeing that his son suddenly showed such an expression, Hong Tianping also put down the dishes and chopsticks, Zhou Huiyue frowned, and Hong looked at his brother slightly curiously.

Hong Wu looked at his parents and said heavily, "I'm going to go out." ”

This sentence made the family become a lot silent, Zhou Huiyue sighed, and Hong Tianping asked with relief, "Where are you going?" When to go? ”

"Kyoto, leave after the Lantern Festival." Hong Wu's answer never dragged his feet.

When he heard the word Kyoto, Hong Tianping was obviously shocked, but soon returned to normal.

"It's okay, it's time to go out for a walk." After Hong Tianping finished speaking, he got up and left with his cane.

"I'll go see your father, this old guy hides everything in his heart, obviously reluctant, and puts on a look of indifference." Zhou Huiyue got up to leave, but the moment she turned her head, tears flowed from the corners of her eyes, so why was she reluctant.

Hong Hong's eyes were slightly red, he grabbed Hong Wu's arm with both hands, and sobbed: "Brother, can you not go out." ”

Hong Wu also wanted to take care of his family at home, but seeing that his sister was about to take the university entrance examination, the tuition at that time was not something that could be solved by selling some side dishes, his father's feet were inconvenient, his mother had low blood sugar, and his physique was weak, so he couldn't do rough work, so he had to go out to make money.

"Brother, don't stop talking, I'm slightly scared." Hong Weiwei rarely cried, but seeing his brother's serious expression, it seemed that he was about to separate.

Hong Wu held his sister's little hand with his backhand and comforted: "Don't be afraid." ”

"Brother, will you be like them, go out and never come back?"

Hong Wu was slightly stunned, it turned out that my sister was worried about this, there were many young people in the village who went out to work, but some never came back, and now most of the people in the village are old people, and there are fewer middle-aged people, let alone young people.

"Don't worry, of course my brother will come back, besides, when did my brother lie to you?" Hong Wu straightened his sister's hair and said softly.

"Really?" Hong asked cautiously.

"Really!" Hong Wu nodded.

Hong wiped away his tears slightly, his expression changed, and he smiled: "Then you have to find me a sister-in-law from the city to come back." ”

“······” Hong Wu's forehead was full of black lines, his parents were not in a hurry, but his sister was so anxious.

"Let's talk about it." Hong Wu said lightly, he went out to make money, not to find his wife.

At night, Hong Wu's parents were lying on the bed, Zhou Huiyue looked a little sad, her son had never left him, and now he said he would go, and it was so far away.

"Huiyue, don't be too sad, the fifth son will have to go out sooner or later, he has been taking care of us at home for so long, in the end, we are dragging down our son." Hong Tianping also felt sorry for his son.

"I know, but I didn't expect it to be so sudden." Zhou Huiyue hugged her husband's arm and said softly.

"The fifth son went out to work for Weiwei and us, this kid is such a character, he hides everything in his heart, and he bears any hardships himself, alas~" Hong Tianping sighed.

"I'm worried that Wuzi will be bullied when he goes out, after all, he has only been to the town at the farthest, and the people outside are sinister, I'm afraid of ·····"

Hong Tianping patted his wife's shoulder and comforted: "You also underestimate our son, our son is just honest and sincere, it doesn't mean that he will be bullied." ”

"Well, I'm just worried anyway." Zhou Huiyue pillowed her husband's arm and said helplessly.

"It's good to get used to it, by the way, take this opportunity to let the fifth son go and withdraw the marriage, and don't delay the daughters of other families." Hong Tianping said suddenly.

"It's also true, it's been so long, and other people's daughters can't afford it." Zhou Huiyue is also worried about her son's lifelong events, she will be twenty-five after the New Year, and she will be able to hold her grandson when she is as old as others.

"Alright, let's sleep."

"Hmm~"

Hong Wu's parents usually rest early, but Hong Wu and Hong Weiwei are different, after all, it's only nine o'clock in the evening, and in the bustling city, this is the beginning of nightlife.

At this time, the two brothers and sisters sat in the backyard, this backyard is a small balcony to put it bluntly, just a little simpler, opposite a stream, there is a small waterfall not far away, the environment is elegant, the two brothers and sisters leaned on the chair to enjoy this moment of tranquility.

"Brother~ Let's make a song." Hong Wei was wearing a wide padded jacket, his legs crossed on the chair, and shouted to Hong Wu beside him.

"Okay." Hong Wu nodded, walked into the house, and took out the flute used by his mother, this flute is white, and there are tassels hanging on the tail, the workmanship is very fine, and it is not an ordinary product at first glance.

Hong held his chin slightly, looking at the tall and handsome brother, his beautiful eyes were bent into crescents, his brother's temperament playing the flute was so fascinating, it was really cheap for the future sister-in-law.
