Chapter 6 Uncle

Before I could figure out what was going on with Sanbao, my uncle called me to my house.At that time, it was my uncle who signed for me when I went to study for a day.

Uncle didn't say anything, just said that he would come to eat at home this Saturday. In view of my recent performance, I was always a little scared and skipped too many classes.Then it suddenly occurred to me that I didn’t fill in my parents’ phone number in the introduction of the family information for admission, but filled in my hometown number, and the phone was turned off long ago.That means I can’t get through, if I can’t get through, it’s okay, if there’s no problem, I’m not getting through, I comfort myself.I also thought about being laid off because both my parents filled in their occupations. Later I learned that the state stipulates that husband and wife cannot be laid off at the same time. I also thought that my parents have divorced and they are considered two families.I thought about it a lot, but I didn't figure it out. As long as I don't ask me to talk about skipping classes, I think I can do it

I came to my uncle's house step by step with anxiety. Without exception, there were many dishes, not big fish and meat, but a combination of meat and vegetables, refreshing and delicious. I always like this kind of homely meal, so I ate it unceremoniously. a lot.Uncle cared about my studies and my body calmly and slowly, speaking lightly and in a low voice

I have four uncles, my mother is the eldest, except the younger uncle and my mother are in W city, the oldest uncle is in the city where I study, the second uncle and the third uncle are in the countryside with my grandmother, the second uncle is not married because he has rheumatoid arthritis inflammation.The third uncle suffered from epilepsy since he was a child. It is normal if he does not have an attack. When he does, he will convulse and foam at the mouth.

Several uncles love me very much, after all, my mother raised them from a young age of half mother and half sister.

The uncle is the most admirable. When he was a child, the family conditions were not good. The uncle voluntarily gave up his studies and came out to work to support his younger brothers.

The second uncle is the most talented in the family. He did a lot of things when he was young, and he also opened a clothing store. He often went boating in the opposite river when the store opened. He was known as the most chic boss in the whole market. Our family has good genes, and being handsome is the easiest thing to do. My second uncle used to have a lot of girlfriends. When I was a child, he brought a beautiful aunt for my birthday and bought me a big bag of snacks. The beautiful aunt and snacks are still vivid in my memory. new.Later, after playing enough, he happened to meet someone who wanted to get married. The second uncle began to change his mind, started a good business, and prepared to get married.Reluctantly, misfortune fell from the sky, and the second uncle suddenly got rheumatoid arthritis, which became more and more serious. At that time, the second uncle and his girlfriend had already lived together. The sudden illness did not separate the two, but made the future The second aunt became more frustrated and courageous, and the second aunt began to work overtime desperately to make money. When the second uncle's hands became more and more serious and could not be straightened, the second uncle finally became cruel and broke up with the future second aunt. The pressure, the second aunt finally left, and later heard that the second aunt would not get married for many years in the future, and was still waiting for him, and then I never heard of it, sometimes watching the meal and whistling with curly fingers The second uncle at the table, thinking about God’s will to trick people, man, I don’t know what will happen tomorrow

The third uncle's epilepsy can't be cured. It should be that grandma ate something she shouldn't eat when she was pregnant, or she was tired. The conditions were poor back then, and only working could have food.

My uncle is a careless person. He was a bastard in the countryside since he was a child, fighting, tattooing and gambling.You asked him why he got the tattoo, and he said, if young people get this tattoo, others will not bully you.At that time, I was still young, so I couldn't refute it, and I always felt that it was wrong.Strongness is definitely not achieved by tattoos.

It's a pity that the uncle's success only read a second uncle, and the younger uncle never read it after finishing high school. When he was young, he often went to the tomb with a group of boys, and he really dug up a lot of good things for him. The five petals made of silver Peach blossoms, discs carved in stone, strange caves, sculptures that were accidentally smashed by a hoe, etc. I heard that this village was the battlefield where wars were fought, and many treasures were buried. Many antique dealers often visit the village. Walk around, collect junk everywhere.When my third uncle was not sick, he often dumped these things, and made a little money by reselling them.There is often a legend in the village that you will often see a rabbit under the moonlight. If you go forward, it will go forward, and it will always be a few meters away from you. If you don’t run, you won’t be able to catch it. There is also a big treasure that has not been unearthed. Only when the big treasure becomes a spirit, will the rabbit appear.

I lived in my grandmother's house for several years when I was a child, and I was fascinated by these legends for a long time, and I firmly believed in them

I remember that one summer vacation, it rained continuously for a month, and everything was flooded. Except for the houses where I lived, the rivers, ditches, fields, and ponds were all full. I don’t know which neuropathy came out. Which fish pond in the neighboring village is trapped now?

As soon as the news came out, people ran for tens of miles around to see it, and I wanted to go too, but my grandmother told me not to go, the inner three floors and the outer three floors were full of people, and I couldn't even squeeze in.

I still regret it now, I really should go and see it, I guess it means that there is too much water, a big snake rushed out, and it was spread by superstitious people

The big snake is also good, after all, I haven't seen it

As soon as I recall the past, I tend to digress

Let’s talk about my mother. My mother didn’t graduate from junior high school. It’s not that she is not allowed to study, but she is too stupid. I heard that when my mother was young, she had to count the three corners of a stove for a long time. Take it out and tell me, fortunately my mother is good-looking, and the journey to work in the factory went smoothly, except for meeting my father, a scumbag, the rest of my life was ruined

After talking about my mother's family affairs, let's talk about my uncle. My uncle had the best grades back then. Unfortunately, he was too sensible and had a good heart. This is the end of his life. First, he worked in a factory in a big valley. , said it was a heavy military industry. Later, the factory transformed into a bicycle, and brought me a green one. It was the first bicycle in my life. I was excited for a long time, and I didn’t know how many times I fell. There are still a few scars.

The uncle later moved to City H with the factory, where he met his aunt in the factory, got married, and had children.Although my aunt is fat, she has a kind heart and supports everything my uncle has done, including taking care of my grandma, helping my grandma and grandpa, tossing back and forth, and being filial before the bed. My aunt didn't complain a word, and even took time to come and accompany her Granny who is seriously ill.The two couples are not rich and powerful, but I admire them sincerely. I wish them a happy life and a peaceful life.

I stepped out of my thoughts, facing this table of simple home-cooked dishes, my aunt was nagging about household chores, my uncle was busy cleaning up the tables and chairs, and my cousin was also preparing to go out to work

The sunlight outside the house is just right, neither too thick nor too weak, there is a little dust on the window, someone scratched a mark with his hand, and the clinking of dishes and dishes interweaves a crisp and pleasant sound.

As far as the eye can see, a bit old furniture.

Uncle’s voice was rambling in the room where the light was not bright enough, warm and tired

I smell the old tables and chairs, smell the outdated TV, what I reach out to touch is a little greasy on the corner of the table

I suddenly felt the peace of mind that I had not seen for a long time, as if the soul that had been floating for a long time finally touched reality

I thought of my studies, my dormitory, the bus on the road outside, the air waves under the scorching sun, and the report to school with my suitcase alone... I thought of Sanbao...

I breathed this rare warmth anxiously, feeling at ease and feeling awkward at the same time.

Uncle once again told me to study hard and not to think about anything else. I knew he was beating around the bush to remind me not to be influenced by my parents. Thinking of this, I was quickly brought back to reality, and politely told my uncle that I understood. , was about to get up and go back, but the uncle stood up and went to a box in front of the TV, took out a three-dollar coin, put it in my hand, and told me that the change was specially made for buses at home.

Holding the three dollars in my hand, my heart felt like I was stung by something, it was sour and soft
