It’s a Bit Early To Cross

Today, the Sanliang store has a lot of visitors.

In the morning, the manager of the cinema came and gave 30 movie tickets. In the afternoon, the managers of the barber shop and the bathhouse also came. One gave 20 free invoices, and the other gave 50 bath tickets.

Their goals are also the same, that is, they came to the bags of peanuts and melon seeds lying in the warehouse, and they all wanted to get more rations.

But I was worried about Director Lian. There were only so many things given above. All units wanted to order more.

This one is given too much, that one is unwilling, that one is given too much, and this one is unwilling, one will complain if the distribution is not good.

Sophisticated human feelings, it is difficult!

However, the employees in the store were very happy. The items sent by those units were distributed by Chu Heng at that time, and they all got a lot of benefits.

It was almost time to get off work at this time, while the aunts were cleaning up the house, they were discussing getting their hair done together at night.

I don't know if the hairdresser can stand it or not...

Guo Xia also happily clicked on the various tickets that he had distributed, thinking that he would go to the person he just met and go to a movie together.

This hard-working and honest child finally got the approval of his aunts a few days ago, and introduced him to a partner. The girl is average-looking, but the unit is good. She works in the street office, and the two have been fighting hotly recently.

It's a pity that someone in Chu couldn't appreciate the happiness brought by these benefits at this moment.

This is the trouble of the rich.

But he is also in a good mood now, because just now, Miss Ni has promised him that he will go to his house for dinner after get off work in the evening, and he can finally enjoy the fruit after dinner again.

The two mouthfuls that I secretly tasted in the unit every day are really not enough.

"That's it." Chu Heng, who was a little concerned, gave a mean smile to Miss Ni, and after receiving the girl's shy glance, he happily ran back to the office, waiting for the arrival of the off-duty time. .

"Hey!"

The old man opposite Lian sighed faintly at this time, closed the account book in his hand, tucked his hair one by one, and complained to him with a frown: "You said that these people come with me every time during the New Year. , where can I get them so many peanuts and melon seeds?"

Chu Heng felt a little distressed for the old man. He rolled his eyes and gave him an idea: "Or just cast lots. It depends on luck, no one can blame anyone."

"Drawing lots?" The old man's eyes lit up when he heard the words, and then he frowned again: "Is this a bit of a joke? A group of leaders of various units drew lots for the sake of ordering food, and it makes people laugh when they say it."

"Then I have no choice." Chu Heng shrugged.

"Hey, let's see." The old man sighed again.

At this moment, Guo Xia suddenly ran in and said to Chu Heng with a complicated face: "Brother, someone came outside and said it was your relative."

Chu Heng was immediately stunned. His old Chu family was almost extinct, and the existing population was all wealthy with five fingers. Which special mother still has relatives?

But I was ignorant. Since people came to recognize relatives, they had to meet in person anyway.

He stood up full of doubts and went to the shop in the front room with Guo Xia.

The person who came was an old man in his sixties. His dark face was covered with wrinkles, and he was wearing a ragged jacket with patches on his body. From the scattered holes, he could still see some withered yellow grass. , What attracts attention is his feet. In the cold winter weather, he actually wears a pair of straw sandals. The exposed feet and insteps have frozen blue and purple, which makes people feel distressed.

At this time, the old man was sitting cautiously on a bench, holding a cup of boiled water that Miss Ni had just poured for him in his hand, and kept looking at the dim old eyes around him, full of daze and hesitation.

The unfamiliar environment and the unfamiliar people make the old man who has never travelled very uneasy.

Chu Heng didn't rush to show up to recognize his relatives, but stood at the small door of the front and rear rooms and looked at the old man for a while, but after thinking for a while, he couldn't find any information about the old man in his memory.

In the end, he couldn't, so he could only step forward and ask the old man, "Master, I am Chu Heng, are you my relative?"

Seeing him appear, the old man was as if he had found the backbone. He stood up excitedly and nodded again and again: "Yes, yes, my name is Yang Youfu, your third uncle and grandpa!"

"Uncle and grandpa?" Chu Heng was stunned for a moment. In his memory, he didn't have any relatives such as uncle and grandpa at all, and he was still in the third class. Isn't there the boss and the second?

I forgot one possibility, so I can't forget all of them, right?

Could it be that the old man had mistaken the person?

Seeing his confused face, the old man quickly said, "Your father's name is Chu Chengcai, your mother's name is Pan Erni, and your grandmother's name is Yang Chunhua, right?"

Chu Heng scratched his head when he heard the words, the old man was right, but he was even more confused: "Yes, but I don't remember there is an uncle at home."

Could it be that the original owner left a memory deficit?

He thought a little unconfidently.

Seeing that he didn't believe it, the old man became anxious and grabbed his arm: "I'm really your third uncle and grandpa, you haven't been back with your grandma, so of course you don't know me, but your second uncle Chu Jianshe is with me. If you've seen it, you'll know when you call him."

"Then wait, I'll call my second uncle." As soon as Chu Heng heard that he knew his second uncle, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief, otherwise he really didn't know how to deal with this relative who appeared out of thin air.

He hurried back to the office, picked up the phone and called the Grain Management Office.

It is very troublesome to make a call at this time. It is not that you can make a call by dialing, but you have to transfer the call through the operator console. The call is made to the post and telecommunications office first, and then the operator will connect the other party~www.readwn.com~Chu Heng stands After waiting for a while before calling, the call was finally received by the Grain Management Office.

After talking to Chu Jianshe, he briefly explained the matter, and then he got a positive reply. They did have a distant relative named Yang Youfu in the Chu family, but he couldn't reach it.

This uncle and grandpa who suddenly appeared is the third brother of his grandmother's uncle's house in Langfang. He is the kind of person who has five clothes, and he has lost contact for many years. I don't know how the old man found it.

After making an appointment with Chu Jianshe and taking the third uncle and grandpa to his house, Chu Heng put down the phone and sighed deeply.

A poor relative who has not been in contact with him for many years comes to his door, what else can he do?

Thinking about it with my toes, I knew that this was definitely not going to go on. I borrowed food from relatives in the city. Otherwise, would he, an old man in his 60s, travel so far in the winter to recognize his relatives?

Langfang to Sijiucheng, but there are more than 100 miles away. Going out at this time is not like later generations. You can hold the steering wheel and step on the accelerator. If there are no buses or bicycles, you can only rely on two legs. !

He sighed because of this.

Can an old man in sixty be brave enough to trek in the cold, or find a relative he hasn't seen for many years. If it wasn't for the fact that he couldn't do anything at home, how could he take such a risk?

If he encounters some danger along the way, if his relatives in the city don't want to recognize him, whether the old man can go back alive is a matter of two reasons. If one is not good, he will freeze to death on the road.

In the past, he always heard that there was a poor relative in this family and a bitter friend in the other family, but he never expected that it would finally be his old Chu family's turn.

However, in Chu Heng's view, this matter is nothing. He has this condition. Since he has come to the door, the gang will do it.
