60s white-eyed wolf

Old Yintou's home is in Haiding District, not far from Peking University. His family ancestors were cabinet ministers in the former Qing Dynasty, and there is still a small courtyard left in his generation, which is being cleaned up next to the original one. The back garden of the county prince's mansion.It is said that the front, back, left and right are the mansions of high-ranking officials and nobles left over from the previous dynasty, as well as the courtyards where relatives and servants lived.

"...15, 16, Yangshu Hutong, huh? No. 17!"

Cao Fugui and his two younger brothers wandered around the old alleys in Beijing, and almost lost his head.

Looking at the quadrangle courtyards that look similar everywhere, the wooden and concrete poles pull the long cobweb-like wires intertwined on the alleys, and from time to time there are a few old men and women around the base of the masonry and tiled walls, pulling coils. The tongue-in-cheek Beijing movies are chatting away, looking at a few stupid outsiders, their eyes are rounded, and they are full of vigilance.

If Brother Fugui hadn't been smiling and talking, and he was still holding a letter of introduction from the commune in his hand, Huang Pang and Hozen, just looking like they don't seem to be serious people in the countryside, would have been turned over by the grandparents to the police a long time ago. .

After questioning several old Beijingers, and being interrogated [-] times by ancestors and eight generations, Cao Fugui finally led his younger brothers to the home of Lao Yin in Yangshu Hutong.

"This is the house!"

Cao Fugui pointed to the number plate hanging on the wall of a small courtyard and shouted, he found it!

The gate of the small courtyard is closed, and two tall, thin trees with bare leaves stretch their sparse branches to the sky from the top of the courtyard, looking very lonely and lonely.

Fugui looked at the neglected appearance of the courtyard, frowned, and gave the hozen a wink, the younger brother immediately stepped forward, lifted the old copper ring on the courtyard door that was worn out, and patted it hard: "Is anyone there?! Is anyone home?"

After yelling a few times, no one came out to respond, so the hozen simply put its ear on the door to listen for the sound inside, and it seemed that there was some movement?He scratched his head and was about to throw his fist at the door, when he heard an old man beside him asking vigilantly, "What are you doing? Who are you looking for here?"

"Hey, don't get me wrong, we are old Mr. Yin Weiming's friends, and we were entrusted by him to come and see the house, and send a message by the way." Cao Fugui hurriedly greeted him with a smile on his face, and explained to the gray-bearded man.

"Is anyone in here?"

"Yin Weiming? Wasn't he beaten as a right... He went to the Nancheng Cadre School, how do you young people know him?" The old man was blowing his gray beard, extremely vigilant.

"Oh! We have met Mr. Yin's old friend, you are a sensible person! Take a look, look, this is a letter of introduction from our commune. The Nancheng Cadre School has set up a branch in our brigade..."

Cao Fugui hurriedly took out the letter of introduction with the red stamp to show his identity as a decent person, and gave an overview of the future. Then the old man eased his expression, nodded, turned around and knocked on the door, and shouted into the door in a low voice: "Lizi, Lizi, open the door, it's okay! It's your father's friend who came to see you. If you're behind the door, just say something!"

Seeing the old man looking around, full of precautions, Cao Fugui and his brothers made him a little nervous. They stood in front of the door together and looked around vigilantly, making it look like an underground party joint.

After a while, a somewhat hoarse young man's voice came from inside, and he asked in a low voice, "Fifth Master, is that you? Is, is my father's friend outside?"

"Hey, you kid, don't even your fifth master believe it? Hurry up, open the door! Don't make trouble again in a while." Fifth master looked anxiously and gave a low voice.

The person inside the door seemed to hesitate for a while, and after a while, the door was quietly opened, and the haggard man's face with a stubbled beard looked out. He looked around vigilantly, and saw that only Fifth Master was leading Several strangers immediately opened the door and said in a low voice, "Guys, please come in!"

"Go, go! Come on."

The fifth master grabbed Cao Fugui and dragged a few country turtles who were puzzled by Monk Zhanger into the yard, and quickly turned back to bolt the door. The old man was relieved and shook his head.

Cao Fugui looked at the middle-aged man in front of him who was sitting in a wooden wheelchair and was struggling to push the car over. He looked left and right, and finally found a little shadow of Lao Yin on his arched high nose.

"Are you... Yin Li? The second son of Mr. Yin Weiming?"

Counting his age, the family he mentioned to Lao Yin should be his second son.

Cao Fugui thought of Lao Yin's rounder face now that he was eating in Lin Kan, and his oily bald forehead that was so bright that it could be used as a lamp, but he couldn't match up with the skinny and haggard man in front of him.

"Yes. You are my father's...?"

Yin Li raised his eyes to look at Cao Fugui, with indelible sorrow and fear in his brows, like a frightened bird.

Cao Fugui couldn't help but introduced his group and his relationship with Lao Yin, looking at the yard while talking.

The small courtyard in all directions should also be an ancient building, surrounded by gray and old brick walls, and the row houses on all sides are all old houses with brick, tile and wood structures. A big black hole was revealed.

Yin Li listened silently, and also quietly sized up the person who came. When he heard his father mentioned in his mouth, his expression was complicated, his lips closed a few times, and he murmured, "Father, how are you doing in Lincoln?"

"It's good! I can eat and drink. I can't splash water with a big gun. My favorite thing to do is to go to the mountains to paint and soak in hot springs. It's moisturizing!"

When Cao Fugui talked about old man Yin, his voice was bitter, although what this old man loved most was that when he couldn't recite the book, he kicked his ass with the tail of a big gun, but he could sue the old man's son for such a shameful misfortune. ? !

But speaking of it, old man Yin said that apart from his wife, there were four other sons living with him and the youngest son, but now there seemed to be no one else in the house, and no one came out after talking for a long time.

"Oh, by the way, this is a letter from home he entrusted me with. There are also some local products from our Lincoln side, so that the family can taste something new."

Cao Fugui took out the letter and shook his chin. The two younger brothers immediately put the big bag on the ground knowingly. Brother Fugui opened the backpack and took out everything from it, such as dried lotus seeds, mille-feuille cakes, and preserved peaches. , glutinous rice glutinous rice cake... At the end, I took out a few newspapers wrapped, and brought a big taro with mud.

He chuckled and said, "The local products are all made and grown by the villagers themselves. They are not worth much, but it took me a lot of effort to carry them all the way to the capital!"

"Thank you very much, Comrade Cao, thank you very much..." Yin Li was a little at a loss, more surprised, and hurriedly thanked him.

The fifth master watched coldly from the side, and snorted twice, as if he looked down on him very much.

Cao Fugui didn't bother to care whether he didn't like things or people, and was planning to leave after a few more greetings. The letter and things were brought, and the task was completed. Looking at the deserted yard, it was probably cold. Stove, seeing that it was almost lunch time, he didn't want to wrong his stomach.If this Yin Li is willing to go out, everyone will have a meal together and communicate more, but judging by his appearance, he probably won't go out.

"Boom!" A stone fell from the sky outside the yard, rubbed Cao Fugui's head and almost hit him, so scared that Brother Fugui shrank his head suddenly, and cursed out of shock, "Fuck!"

The two little brothers were stunned, and when they realized it, they were furious, mother!What does it mean that a stone fell from the sky?A few people looked up at the sky, but they didn't see anything. The hozen immediately ran out of the yard angrily. Huang Pang followed closely, wanting to see which bastard threw stones into the yard so blindly? !

Fifth Master quickly grabbed the hozen who was in the lead, and said, "Wait!"

Yin Li was trembling all over, pushing the wheelchair and turned towards the house, urging in a low voice: "Comrade Cao, come in with me first, alas! Hurry up, outside..."

Before he finished speaking, a broken voice from outside began to curse: "...you black bastard, get out of here! The family occupies such a large courtyard, and there is no place for us people to stand. The stinky surname Yin Lao Jiu and Monk Hua have all been re-educated through labor, and you still occupy the big yard?!"

Qiao Yingnian walked into the dormitory where he would live in the next four years, carrying the bag that his elder brother had personally packed for him.

The economics department he works in is divided into three classes, and the dormitory is also arranged according to the class, on the second floor.When Qiao Yingnian entered, there were already 3 people in the 6-person dormitory.One is arranging bedding and objects, the other is scrubbing the bed rails, and the third who has finished arranging is holding a book and frowning as he studies.Qiao Yingnian glanced at it and saw the words "Economics" written on it.

Seeing another newcomer coming in, the three of them stopped what they were doing and turned their heads to look.

The one who was reading immediately put down the book and got up to meet him. He has a dark complexion, a raised forehead, and a tuft of long hair on each of his thick and long eyebrows. He looks a bit like a birthday star with a black face.

The black-faced birthday star grinned and showed his big yellow teeth. He smiled heartily. He reached out to pick up the luggage in Qiao Yingnian's hand, and said, "Welcome! I'm Lin Hanqiang, a Han from the Han Dynasty, a strong man." Qiang. A student in Class 77, Class 2, Department of Economics. You should be a new classmate too, right?"

The other two also greeted the newcomer with smiles on their faces, looked at the newcomer curiously, helped carry things with all their might, and introduced themselves briefly by the way.They are all classmates in Class 2 of Economics.

Although they are classmates at the same level, the age difference is a bit big.That Lin Hanqiang looked to be in his thirties, but the Wen Ziyao from Guangdong behind him was only in his eighteenth or nineties, and the other Shi Fucheng looked in his twenties.

"Hi, I'm Qiao Yingnian. Class 77, Class 2, Department of Economics."

The corner of Qiao Yingnian's mouth twitched slightly, and he responded with a smile, introducing himself very simply.With a cold look, he glanced at the faces of the three classmates, and he let go of the hand holding the luggage without being polite.

"Aww, what a mother! It's so heavy!" Lin Hanqiang took the biggest bag from Qiao's hand, and almost missed his old waist. Fortunately, Qiao Yingnian reached out and held it firmly. Live in your own big bag.

"Sorry, my family prepared a little too much." Qiao Yingnian couldn't help smiling when he thought of stuffing things into his bag, even Jinhua ham, forcibly stuffed into Brother Fugui who came in.

"Student Qiao, have you practiced before? With so many bags, I don't think you're blushing or out of breath." Wen Ziyao looked curiously at the cold-faced and quiet Qiao, and couldn't help but ask, who What he admires the most is Foshan Huang Feihong?

"I've practiced a few tricks."

Qiao Yingnian lowered his eyes, put his things on the bed, and tidied them up quickly, and couldn't help but think of his elder brother again.

What is Brother Fugui doing now?
