Chapter 2

Only one person knows Lao Li's thoughts

Lao Hu, one year younger than Lao Li, who is fifty-seven years younger than Lao Li, has been a brother of a different surname with Lao Li for almost forty years.

Thirty-nine years ago, Lao Hu, who joined the army from Zhangjiajie, Hubei, met Lao Li, who was one year older than him in the Tibetan border defense force. During those extremely difficult days, the honest Lao Li always took care of Lao Hu like a big brother. When Lao Hu suddenly had acute appendicitis in the camp, it was Lao Li who carried Lao Hu to a military sub-district hospital more than 30 miles away in the wind and snow, and pulled Lao Hu back from the brink of death. From then on, Lao Hu and Lao Li became a brother of a different surname who was even more close to his brother.

After retiring from the army, the two returned to their hometowns. A few years later, Lao Hu used his relationship to move to Zhejiang, and later he moved to Lianhu Town, Pingjiang County, where Lao Li is located, and became a neighbor with Lao Li.

Over the years, although Lao Hu, who is flexible in his work, has always had the opportunity to be promoted, he just stayed in Lianhu Town as the mayor and secretary, and refused to leave this acre of three-point land in Lianhu Town.

With Lao Hu under his command, no one in the town dares to bully the honest and honest old Li

In daily life, Lao Hu always has to provide various help to Lao Li, but Lao Li, who is stubborn, always thinks that this will harm Lao Hu, who is the leader, so he always toughly rejects Lao Hu's help. Faced with the stubbornness of this brother, Lao Hu is helpless, so he usually provides Lao Li with some other help to solve Lao Li's problems.

But this time, Lao Hu felt that Lao Li's worries were a bit troublesome.

It’s not that he can’t help Lao Li’s solution, but it’s not easy to convince Lao Li to solve his own thoughts.

Money is a bastard, and it cannot be left out. It is even more troublesome if you have it. After get off work, Lao Hu took Lao Li to a small restaurant they often went to for dinner. This restaurant was also run by an old comrade who had worked as a soldier in Tibet. The food cooked in the small shop was the same, but the old comrade had bad ears and could not hear clearly. So Lao Hu often took Lao Li to find a small private room for dinner, which was safe and reliable, and could also take care of the old comrade's business. Two meat, two vegetables, one dish of peanuts and one dish of braised duck. After a bottle of Erguotou was eaten, Lao Hu shook his head and said

Lao Li chewed peanuts and sighed softly, without saying anything. In his life, he could completely let go of himself in front of Lao Hu, without being timid or humble.

In this life, people eat only a few dishes; drink only a bottle of wine; sleep only a bed; after they die, they only have a small urn and a small piece of cemetery without money, but if they have money, they will not bring them to life or death, who will they keep for? Lao Hu opened another bottle of Erguotou, filled Lao Li and his cup, and then shook his head and sighed.

Old Li was stunned because Old Hu said that he was in his heart.

In the past, except for buying clothes and books for your granddaughter, you could grit your teeth and spend some money on your life, your family was shaking, afraid that people would get old and get sick, but there was no money in your passbook. What would you think of living a life honestly?

But now, there are seven figures in the passbook. My son has been dead for several years. My daughter has also married to the next county. There is only one granddaughter at home. In the future, will all the money be paid to outsiders when the granddaughter grows up?

This is not tens of thousands of yuan, and the house plus deposits are tens of millions. As long as Lao Li thinks of this, he will feel bad immediately.

Lao Li actually couldn't hide things in his heart, but he was so lonely. His wife was just an old country woman. She only knew how to cook, wash clothes and go out to sweep the streets. She had no communication with Lao Li, so when the old brother lifted the lid in his heart, Lao Li couldn't help but pour out the bitterness in his heart.

Lao Li's monthly salary is only a little over 4,000 yuan. If you don't eat or drink a year, you can only save 50,000 yuan. This ten million yuan will have to be left uneasy for two hundred years. After he dies, he will either be a good son-in-law or a good son-in-law. The key is that neither of these two are from the Li family. Even if the surname Li or granddaughter comes in, you can still control whether he burns incense and paper for the ancestors of the Li family after a hundred years?

This...How could Lao Li swallow this?

As Lao Li said that, he remembered his son who died in a car accident. When he remembered that he lost his son in his old age, he suddenly felt sad and burst into tears and burst into tears.

Lao Hu went out to untie it, and asked his old comrades for an extra pack of tissues. For such a thing, he knew that he could not persuade or comfort him, so he could only let the old brother cry first. It would not be too late to say that when the sadness in his heart passed.

When Lao Hu finished smoking a cigarette outside and returned to the box with a tissue, Lao Li had already finished crying and seemed to be feeling better.

Lao Hu handed Lao Li a Liqun, and then handed him a tissue. When Lao Li shook his tears and lit the cigarette, Lao Hu said calmly, "Old brother, actually... it's not difficult for you!"

What? Old Li was stunned when he heard Lao Hu's words

Wouldn't you just have another son? Lao Hu closed the door of the private room, sat down, filled the Erguotou with Lao Li and his cup, and said slowly
