Long Live the Counterattack

Chapter 31: : Tea is hometown strong

   "My name is Zhang Degui."

"At that time, I was the most naughty in the school. I was not afraid of anyone except Teacher Tang. The principal had to detour when he saw me. At the school, only Teacher Tang considered me a student and was willing to teach me patiently. Other teachers, there is no such thing as poor students in their eyes. Poor grades are already a capital offense. Adding naughty, it is incurable. Oh, this has happened many years ago. "Middle-aged men are not too dirty." , Sat down on the dusty chair in front of him, and happily talked to Lin Dong about his previous experiences. There was an inexplicable vigor on the old bitter face.

   "Since I'm my own, I'll call you Uncle Zhang!" Lin Dong's heart moved, and the sealed memory turned out, vaguely remembering that Zhang Degui existed when he saw his grandmother off. Grandma has been teaching for decades. It can be said that there are peaches and plums all over the world, but there are not many people at the farewell time. Lin Dong felt that it would be more convenient to do things personally when he came back to collect medicinal materials. The expensive character in front of him was good, and it looked quite honest, and might be able to use it.

   "Don't dare to be, don't dare to be." The middle-aged man Zhang Degui shook his hands.

   "Uncle Zhang, I don't know if you have time, I want to ask you to do something for me." Lin Dong didn't make any trouble, and went straight to the point.

"Ah, even if you can do it, I can't say anything else. Although Teacher Tang is no longer there, I won't be able to repay her kindness to me in a lifetime." Zhang Degui said at the end, his voice gradually lowered. He asked with a little embarrassment: "I don’t know what you are going to do? It’s okay to talk about working hard, or going to transport these, I’m afraid it’s a brainstorming. I know my own affairs, but I really don’t have that ability. , It’s not good if it delays your major events, just run errands!"

   "It's not a big deal." Lin Dong took out five old people's heads from his wallet and handed them to Zhang Degui who was surprised.

   "This..." Zhang Degui was in a hurry for money, and he wanted it in his heart, but he was embarrassed.

"Uncle Zhang, you are my grandmother's student, so I can believe it." Lin Dong said his intention: "That's it. I plan to buy a large amount of medicinal materials from the mountains and camellia. You saw it today. , Just accept it, but I don’t have much time to follow up. I would like to ask Uncle Zhang to do this for me."

   "That's it?" Zhang Degui's eyes widened.

   Is this too simple?

   He thought it was something difficult. Who wouldn’t want to do errands. He owns a motorcycle and is a slack farm. It’s better to do this job easier than eating beans.

   Zhang Degui was suddenly moved like this. Could it be this Xiaolin who is as kind-hearted as Teacher Tang, saw that his life was not unexpected, and deliberately sent money to himself, but was afraid that he would refuse, so he deliberately used this as an excuse?

Lin Dong gently put the money in front of Zhang Degui: "Since today, every day you help me run around the surrounding areas, towns and villages, where can I go to medicine? Help me buy medicinal materials in large quantities. You need to have acquaintances. Calls are fine! The amount is not too high. You can charge it. The salary is 100 yuan a day for the time being. I will make up for the car fuel and meals. In short, you try to help me run. Collect it every day When it’s over, you can send it here, or you can ask them to send it. You can arrange the rest of the time, and I will try not to affect the farming hours of your family’s fields. Here is 500 yuan, and I will pay you in advance as a fund."

Zhang Degui was happy and embarrassed: "No, no, how can this be done? There is no reason to collect money first if I don’t work. I want to do this, so I’m not worthy of Teacher Tang’s old man! No need to run errands. So much money, you can get twenty or thirty a day!"

   Lin Dong looked at Zhang Degui seriously.

   his eyes are like a blade.

   was so frightened that Zhang Degui, the honest man, didn't dare to breathe, so he shut up and didn't dare to speak anymore.

   Only then did he realize that what the young man in front of him had already decided was beyond doubt and objection.

"Uncle Zhang, I have more important things, I can't be distracted." Lin Dong smiled suddenly, with a serious expression, and the ice and snow melted suddenly, he reached out and patted Zhang Degui's shoulder: "If you are a good student of my grandmother, If you still think of the love in your heart, do me this favor. This money is second to me. What I want is medicine. If I can receive medicine from someone I can trust, understand? Uncle Zhang, I am today. To call you Uncle Zhang is to believe in you, so I hope you can do me this favor!"

   Lin Dong’s smiling face is brighter than the sun.

   Zhang Degui saw it.

   suddenly felt that the whole world suddenly brightened up.

His heart was hot, his voice was a little hoarse, and he squeezed out from his throat: "Okay, this is a favor, I'll help, if you believe me, even if I break my legs, I will do it for you! "

   The five hundred yuan Zhang Degui said no, but as soon as Lin Dong insisted, he quickly took it.

Zhang Degui didn’t talk any more, carefully installed the medicine list that Lin Dong wrote for him, and went out in a hurry. He planned to ride home immediately, mobilize the power of the whole family, contact all acquaintances, and inquire about the situation of the surrounding mountain herbs. Good job entrusted by Lin Dong. There is enthusiasm in his heart, and he is not willing to delay for a moment. I don’t know if the car is driving fast, the sand is in the eyes, or the oncoming wind is a bit strong today, Zhang Degui always feels astringent and hot in his eyes...

   The empty house is full of dust. Except for the big and small bags that I moved in, everything in the house seems to be sealed in time film a few years ago.

   Lin Dong sighed.

Home.

   There are people in the house, that can be called home!

  Lin Dong didn't want to clean up the house. He always felt that it was kept as it was, and it felt more like a childhood...The things that could not be moved in the house, try not to move, especially the things in the grandma's room, let it continue to be sealed and become a permanent memory.

   Grandma likes to drink tea, especially when staying up late, there is always a pot of strong tea on the table full of various paper books.

   However, my grandmother is not very particular about tea, the camellia sent by the students likes it very much.

   She is also used to drinking loose tea from the town.

   Lin Dong didn't like tea when he was young.

  Because it is too bitter.

   He likes sweet things back then. Drinks should be sweet, glutinous rice balls, tofu, etc. should also be sweet. Whenever he cooks sugar water during the holidays, he is most excited.

"Time flies!" Lin Dong felt that he had grown up in the blink of an eye. The old voice and smile were especially in front of him. The joyful laughter seemed to be echoing in his ears, and he was still busy inside and outside the house before. The figure of her grandmother quietly disappeared. Reaching out, no matter how eager and hard you work, you can't catch the wisp of childhood that sneaks away unknowingly.

   Lin Dong washed the tea set that grandma had used. He used to make tea for grandma. The joy and praise of grandma were his strongest motivation to do this. When Lin Dong was a child, he always hoped that he could grow up faster. UU reading www.uukanshu.com became an adult, and later made a lot of money, and returned to be filial to her elders.

   But he, never noticed grandma's aging.

   in his heart.

   Grandma is never old.

   Until she fell down one day and couldn't get up again, she panicked and realized that she hadn't been with her well all these years...

When the water boiled, Lin Dong didn’t use the fairy tea brought back from the world of cultivation. Instead, he grabbed the local camellia into the teapot as his grandmother did before. When closing the lid, Lin Dong paused and added another. Pinch. Grandma prefers thicker tea, because she often stays up late, but does not rest at twelve. Sitting at the grandmother's desk, waiting quietly, until the fragrance of tea filled the room, the mind returned to the sea of ​​thoughts of self-recollection. To be honest, the aroma of this camellia, not to mention the scent of the fairy tea in the world of cultivation, is compared with the spirit tea in the Yoyo hut, it is all scum.

   But, a warm memory from childhood makes Lin Dong's soul especially hot.

   gently.

   poured a cup of tea.

   The color of the tea is very dark. Pick it up and taste it carefully. The taste is also very strong and the taste is bitter.

  Somehow, in this situation, Lin Dong's heart suddenly came up with the phrase "tea is the hometown thick", a kind of understanding came to life spontaneously, maybe this is the reason why grandma likes to drink tea! The grandmother back then gave up everything in the big city, returned to her hometown, stayed in the poor mountainous area to teach, and taught for decades. At that time, many people didn't understand why, and Lin Dong never understood.

   Now, he kind of understands grandma's wish.
