"I heard that you picked up a child from city a?" At the weekly family banquet of the He family, He Chaofeng's mother Jiao Wushuang sat next to his younger son He Chaofeng, and from time to time gave him two chopsticks and dishes.

He Jiazu is an authentic peasant. A few decades ago, He Chaofeng's grandfather participated in the revolution. He followed the chairman to fight against the world and made great contributions. The He family has become the upstart of New China.

Over the past few decades, He Chaofeng's father and brother have followed the old road of grandfather one after another, and both have achieved great results. Today, the He family is a family that has been counted in the military and even in the whole of China.

Although the He family is already so prominent, He Chaofeng's father and elder brother still look like a big boss in private, bold, straightforward, and informal. Under the influence of these two, the He family did not have the style of being silent.

"What kid? How old is it?" The wife only cared about her son. Father He felt distressed, and picked up a small bowl of his wife's favorite dishes.

He Chaofeng put down the dishes and wiped his mouth, "The child is about the same age as Xiaotao. I accidentally drove into him when I went to city a. I haven't seen him in the hospital in city a for so many days. My parents are probably an orphan. I looked pitiful and took it over."

Xiaotao in the mouth of He Chaofeng is the only son of brother He Chaofeng, who is 15 years old this year.

Jiao Wushuang brought in his grandson, and immediately felt distressed, "I should take it, what does the doctor say? There is no sequelae, right?"

"It's been two weeks since the operation, and I'm starting to do some mild rehabilitation. I have to wait for the next review for any sequelae."

"Since the child is an orphan, you took it over again. This is considered a family. Two days after my birthday, bring the child over and let me have a look." Old man He made the final conclusion, taking advantage of his wife bowing. Kung Fu glared at his younger son, not knowing whether he was complaining that He Chaofeng accidentally hit someone, or he was complaining that He Chaofeng had robbed his wife's attention when he came.

Brother He grabbed his job and laughed when he heard these words, "Dad, do you think it's for the second brother to see his wife? Take a look."

"Go go." Jiao Wushuang glared at his eldest son. "That kid was only fifteen years old. In ancient times, your second brother could be his father at this age. Besides, that kid is a boy! What daughter-in-law? How old are they? Old age is still full of nonsense."

Brother He raised his hands in a gesture of surrender, begging for mercy from the mother.

He Chaofeng was taken aback when he heard what his mother said. He suddenly put down his chopsticks and seemed to stand up to refute loudly, but he couldn't say a word for a long time, because he didn't know what his mother was wrong, and he didn't even know. Which sentence should refute?

There seemed to be a lively fish in his chest tumbling and stirring, stirring his heart pounding, and then the heart spread this beating to every corner of his body, especially He Chaofeng's hands, which was trembling and unable to hold the dishes. .

The fish seemed to have chopped his gall to pieces by accident. The bile flowed all over his chest, especially the heart. It seemed to have spasms due to unbearable bitterness. It was really bitter. It hurts and sore.

He Chaofeng clutched his chest, his eyes blank but helpless.

What happened to the boy when he was fifteen, what happened to him when he was thirty? In ancient times, how could he be his father at this age, but now it is not ancient times. There are many couples who are different in their teens!

What's wrong with boys, can't he like boys? Why is a teenager... why can't he be his wife?

These words were turning to and fro in his throat, and He Chaofeng was like a divine initiation, and suddenly he realized. These days and the sweetness of the young people's days and days, only to hear the bitterness and soreness of the mother's words, the answer is obvious.

A beam of light suddenly lit up in He Chaofeng's eyes. He lowered his head and caught a chopsticks dish and hurriedly stuffed it into his mouth, blocking the chuckle that was about to overflow.

It went from bitter to sweet in an instant, all because of that boy.

"By the way, Brother Ye came here again this morning, saying that he had found some news in Ningxia. He heard that the Lanzhou Military Region had served as a soldier under your command..."

"Oh." Old man He put down his bowl and chopsticks, the last two bites of rice obviously lost his appetite, "Why didn't you leave Brother Ye for dinner?"

"Brother Ye's temperament can't be kept." Jiao Wushuang also put down his chopsticks, a little sad on his face.

"Brother Ye has a hard time, how many times did he give up his old face in front of a few old comrades-in-arms for this grandson? It's just over sixty, and his hair is already gray." Old man He wiped his face, his voice trembled.

The two old men sighed, but the juniors did not dare to make a sound. For a while, only the clash of the dishes and chopsticks remained in the hall.

He Chaofeng's chewing speed slowed down, and it was a pity for the Ye family.

The Ye family is a real family with a history of hundreds of years. During the country’s internal and external troubles in the last century, Mr. Ye's father abandoned his pen and went to the army. He used his art of war with extraordinary skill. He successfully guided many battles and his military exploits were even more prominent than Mr. He's father!

However, the Ye Family's achievements were not yet enthusiastic. A fierce revolution was immense. The Ye Family was judged to be a landlord element because of the family's status. Elder Ye's father also closed his eyes during that decade-consuming revolution.

In the end, the grievances were cleared, and the ashes of the father of Ye's father were welcomed back, and a grand memorial service was reorganized. The praise of running water was sent to Ye's house, and Ye's father was also named as a martyr's son.

But this name is of no use to the destitute family that was hit by the revolution. In order to rejuvenate the family, Mr. Ye joined the army when he was guilty of the Ye family by the leader, and he re-established his prestige after a lot of blood and sweat. Military merits.

When Mr. Ye joined the army, Mr. He was just a comrade-in-arms who fought with him. The two rescued each other several times with unclear numbers, and uncountable how many times they were saved by each other, but the deadly friendship has penetrated their blood. Their bones are connected to bones, and their tendons are connected to tendons, like hands and feet.

The Ye family re-entered the top of the military with Ye's efforts, and the scenery was not inferior to He family.

Mrs. Ye hurt her body when she gave birth, so Mrs. Ye and Mrs. Ye have only one son, named Ye Jiaqi. Fortunately, the two are very contented, and they excel in their only-child education. At that time, the younger Ye Jiaqi and He Chaofeng's elder brothers were called the Second Young Master of the Great Courtyard. Everyone would give a thumbs up when they met.

Ye Jiaqi and Big Brother He followed the old path of their father. Like their father, they became a pair of brothers who were born and died on the battlefield. The brotherhood of the two elders combined with the brotherhood of the two juniors, the Ye family and the He family were almost as close as one family in those years.

Then Ye Jiaqi and Brother He were married and had children almost at the same time. Before the child was born, the two families also married a pair of babies with great interest. But it is ironic that the two dolls are both boys, and the marriage contract was naturally cancelled.

The lives of the two families are almost perfect.

However, the good times didn't last long. Once, Mr. Ye Xingzhi picked up his five-year-old grandson and went to the zoo to see monkeys. In order to have a good time, both grandson and grandpa threw off the guards behind him, platooning sneakily like ordinary people. Enter the stadium with the team buying tickets.

Old man Ye also bought a handful of peanuts. Grandson stretched out his little hand to take one from him and threw it to the monkey. Seeing the monkey peeling the shell flexibly, he leaped happily. When the monkey finished eating, he quickly took it from his grandpa Throw one out and enjoy it.

Both grandpa and grandson were playing happily. don’t know where Elder Ye saw a thief next to the backpack on the shoulders of a girl next to a girl holding a blade. Elder Ye was upright and honest throughout his life. Can the thief continue? He yelled and asked his grandson to wait where he was, and then ran to the thief who was less than five meters away from his grandson.

I thought that at this distance, he would be able to catch the thief in ten seconds. But Elder Ye forgot that apart from the thief's dexterity and changeable hands, the thief has also practiced speed because of frequent escapes. He himself has passed the age of knowing the fate of his life. Can he be comparable to a young and strong thief?

From the monkey to the lion, the thief finally stumbles over some helper passerby. Seeing that the thief has been arrested, Mr. Ye quickly ran back to the rockery, but his grandson was no longer there.

Elder Ye stood and looked around where his grandson and grandson were standing, but he couldn't find the grandson in a small military uniform.

In just a few minutes, the lively, lovely, healthy and smart grandson will never be found. Elder Ye can't wait for a few minutes to go back in time, but time did not give Elder Ye a chance to regret, and he always cruelly moved forward.

After losing their grandsons, both Ye and Mrs. Ye had two serious illnesses in succession. Although Ye Jiaqi and his wife did not bluntly complain about Ye Master, their faces never showed joy.

The Ye family gradually fell into the sand, and only reunited when they found clues to their grandson.

But again and again hope, and again and again disappointment.

The relationship between the Ye family's family has become like that, and the relationship with the He family is no better than before. Elder Ye runs around for his grandson's affairs every day, and only when he can't reach his old friend's house will he get on the door of his old friend.

It's not clear whether it was because of shame or embarrassment. Elder Ye put aside his old face, and fled after saying the request. Now friends who were close to brothers in the past dare not even accept the meal.

"Don't say that Uncle Ye has white hair, it is Jiaqi. I almost couldn't recognize him the last time I saw him. Forty-year-olds have more white hair than black hair. They walk with their waists. Brother He's eyes were red, and he couldn't speak anymore.

"I'll call Lanzhou." Father He pushed aside his chair and walked to the study. He didn't forget to ask the two brothers halfway. "You two are also helping to find clues. I don't believe it anymore. 1.3 billion people are looking for it. , I can't find Xiao Tianle!"

When he said this, he wiped his eyes, 1.3 billion people, how can they find it?
