He had just walked to the gate when a car stopped at the gate. Chen Shengli looked at the people in the car. He was sure that the two people in the car were people he had never seen before.
His old friends all have almost half their heads full of white hair like him, but these two look very young. Could they be someone's younger generation?
When Gao Yuan saw Chen Shengli, he knew that this was his grandfather's old friend. He had actually found him. He had never seen the old Chen Shengli, but his grandfather had a photo of the old man when he was young.
Grandpa would sometimes stare at the photo in a daze, and he had told him about it when he was a child.
Of the people in the photo, only five are still alive, and even these five are scattered all over the world. I don’t know if we will have the chance to meet again in this life.
This time he said he came to visit his old friend on behalf of his grandfather. His grandfather was so happy that he gave him a lot of instructions over the phone.
After getting off the car, Gao Yuan stood directly in front of Chen Shengli and gave the old man a proper military salute, which showed respect for a veteran.
Chen Shengli was a little excited and returned a standard military salute.
Gao Yuan held Chen Shengli's hand and said, "Grandpa Chen, I am Gao Dazhi's grandson. I came to see you on behalf of my grandfather."
Chen Shengli became even more excited: "You, you, you are really Gao Dapao's grandson?"
Gao Dapao was the nickname given to Gao Dazhi by his comrades. At that time, Gao Dazhi was extremely brave on the battlefield. He was like a cannonball. He could often tear a hole in the enemy's encirclement and break out of the siege in dangerous situations.
Gao Yuan...his grandfather also has such a nickname? I feel like laughing. What should I do?
Fortunately, he was an excellent soldier and was able to smile in his heart without showing it on his face: "Yes, you are right, I am the grandson of Gao Da...Zhi." He almost slipped up and called out Gao Dapao.
That would be too disrespectful to his own grandfather: "Grandpa Chen, my name is Gao Yuan, you can call me Xiao Gao or Xiao Yuan."
Chen Shengli took Gao Yuan's hand and said, "Come on, let's talk in the yard."
He waved his hand and said, "Everyone go away. This is the child of my old comrade-in-arms. He came to see me."
When Cui Zheng saw his boss get off the car, he quickly got off as well and took out a bag of fruit candies, giving each child two pieces. The villagers were already quite respectful of Chen Shengli, and after hearing what he said and feeling that they had gained an advantage, they all said goodbye and left.
But he couldn't stop talking: "I was saying Uncle Chen is amazing, look, there are people driving cars to see Uncle Chen."
"Hey, you said that the grandchildren of Uncle Chen's comrades are all big leaders who drive cars. If Uncle Chen hadn't returned to the village, would he also be a big leader now?"
"Of course it is, but didn't Second Uncle Chen come back because he was in poor health?"
"I know that. Uncle Chen said his legs were frozen while climbing a snowy mountain. We usually looked at him as if nothing was wrong, but Doctor Luo said that every step he took was like stepping on nails, and it was very painful."
"You are worthy of being the hero of our village. If it hurt so much to walk, I wouldn't be able to get off the kang."
"Of course not, otherwise why would you call him a hero?"
"Hey, you guys think this guy came here just to see Uncle Chen. Could it be some good news? Why didn't he let us know?" The speaker was a short, thin man with a pointed face and monkey cheeks.
After hearing this, everyone turned around to look at the person who said it. When they saw who said it, no one seemed surprised that this person could say this.
This guy with very few hairs on his head and a cunning monkey-like appearance is the rare and annoying idiot in their village.
This man has no elders above him, no wife in between, and no children below him. He lives alone and has many problems. He is lazy and dirty. He doesn't like anyone, especially those who are better off than him. He speaks to everyone in a sour tone.
The key point is that no one in the village lives worse than him. He treats everyone equally and doesn't like anyone. He feels uncomfortable if he doesn't keep his word to anyone.
"Beggar, even if something good happens, what does it have to do with you?"
Fang Laizi didn't think so. What if there was a good thing that he could take advantage of? "You're not right. We are all from the same village. How can we not let the villagers know about the good things? If there are benefits, shouldn't everyone come together?"
A woman spat, "Bah, you're dreaming! Why don't you take out the food from your home and share it with everyone?"
Fang Laizi was unhappy. Why should he give his food to others? "Why? That's mine. Why should I give it to you? You're just being naive."
"So what good things does Uncle Chen usually give you? Is it because you are good-looking or because you are popular?"
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone burst into laughter. That was not a good thing. Why should Uncle Chen let outsiders enjoy the good things he had? If he had good things, they were all earned by others with their own hard work. He wanted to live a good life without working hard himself, but always wanted to take advantage of others.
"Bah, I don't mind talking to a woman like you."
"Oh, you dare to talk to a woman? You are not even as good as a woman, and you still dare to get ahead of her." The women in the village never back down when they are quarreling.
“You, you, you…”
"I, I, I... Why are you so dissatisfied? Go back to your doghouse. You are not happy with everyone. Why don't you just go to heaven, you lazy asshole."
Fang Laizi is not only foul-mouthed, but also likes to take advantage of young wives and older girls. He is a rotten fish and shrimp that everyone hates. No one in the village can look down on him.
The team leader agreed. Why keep such a person? Why not just kick him out? A stinky fish ruined the good feng shui of their village.
"You, you, you stinky bitch, I'm not afraid to be the same as you, what are you waiting for?"
"I'm waiting. I want to see what you can do to me. If you don't accept it, just fight me," the woman said as she rolled up her sleeves.
Fang Laizi saw that the group of women were eager to try. He knew that he would suffer if he fought with these women, but no one could help him.
He quickly ran away: "Just wait for me, you bitch."
"Bah, I'm waiting. If you have the ability, don't run away."
"Hahahaha... this idiot, look at him, he's scared away already."
The men following behind...
How could he not be scared away? The women in their village are all tougher than each other. They are the ones who dare to fight with their men. There are so many old women here. If Fang Laizi dares to lose his temper, these women will tear him into potato shreds.
If I don't run away, can I just wait to be beaten up like a chicken by these women?
The men who had just been gesturing and talking in vernacular now shut up and quickened their pace towards home. They couldn't afford to offend them, they couldn't afford to offend them. The women in their village were all tigers.
