Ding Ding--

The sound of the bicycle bell echoing on the loess road.

quack--

A group of ducks on the loess road were shocked by the sound of bells and rushed from the roadside to the rice fields on the roadside.

A middle-aged man wearing a thick old cotton jacket standing by the roadside looked at the bicycle passing by helplessly, then shook his head and sighed, grabbed the bamboo pole that was more than three meters away, and kept shouting.

"Dad, are you tired? Do you want to have a rest?"

Lu Ye sat on the front bumper of the bicycle. Listening to Lu Huoxing's panting, he turned his head slightly and asked.

"What a tiring thing?"

Before Lu Huoxing could speak, Ye Yuanqiu was already screaming in the back seat of the bicycle, "A big man was tired after riding such a little road."

“Not tired or tired.”

Lu Huoxing's forehead was steaming, and he grabbed the faucet with both hands, stepped forward with difficulty, and suddenly said, "There is a slope in front. You can't ride this one."

"Then you stop quickly, I'll walk with my mom."

Lu Ye shouted hurriedly.

He was not feeling sorry for Lu Huoxing's hard work on his wife and children. After all, it must be hard for an adult man to carry two people, but he is far from reaching the kind of thing that can't be completely unbearable.

The main reason is that Lu Ye’s buttocks are really painful.

He sat on the front bumper of his bicycle. At this time, there were mostly loess roads, and there were countless small stone pits, and he couldn't stand it.

"Then come down."

Lu Huoxing did feel a little struggling, so he tiptoed slightly on the side of the road, let Ye Yuanqiu in the back seat get off first, and then Lu Ye, slid from the bicycle bar in front to the ground.

After both the mother and the mother got off the bicycle, Lu Huoxing pushed the bicycle and walked towards the gentle slope in front, while muttering: "Next year, no, this year, if you have money, you really have to buy a motorcycle."

"Then you buy it quickly." Ye Yuanqiu was holding two big bags in his hand and caught up with Lu Huoxing a few steps. He put the bag in his hand on the back seat of the bicycle, and then reached out to help Lu Huoxing push the cart gently.

"I really want to buy a motorcycle."

Lu Ye, who was walking behind, was also moved.

Nowadays, the roads are not open to every village, and they are all loess and sandy roads, with clear and dusty weather and raining.

You can basically walk on a bicycle, but when you encounter some slopes, you basically have to push down and push back and forth, which is very difficult.

"By the way, at this time of my previous life, I was no longer willing to ride the front bar of the bicycle."

He only had a bicycle at home, and the family of three happened to be.

However, in the last life, as Lu Ye grew older, he had already begun to resist sitting on the crossbar of the bicycle.

Moreover, if Lu Ye remembers it correctly, it should be this year that he will start learning to ride a bicycle. He looks one head taller than this kind of Phoenix bicycle, but his feet can already pedal tripods.

"Okay, OK, get in the car soon."

After crossing the gentle slope, Lu Huoxing's voice came from the front again.

Lu Ye hurriedly trotted a few steps, caught up with Lu Huoxing in front of him, and then quickly climbed onto the horizontal bar in front of the bicycle and sat down again.

The family set out again.

The cold wind in winter blew on my face, making me feel a little shaved.

But Lu Ye didn't feel too cold, but instead felt a little expectant in his heart.

Today is the second day of the Lunar New Year. The family went out to pay New Year's greetings to grandma's house in Yuanqiao Village.

The whole family packed a lot of things early in the morning and then set off.

Along the way, we can actually see a lot of people coming and going, most of whom are going to pay New Year’s greetings, just like their family of three.

Most of them are bicycles, a few motorcycles, and then hand-held tractors. Occasionally there are one or two passing vans or minivans, which is rare.

After all, it is far away from the towns and towns of the county, and most villages and towns are now like this.

It is far from the kind of scene in later generations. During the Chinese New Year, cars may accidentally get blocked on these rural roads.

"In twenty or thirty years, standing in front of the beginning of this time, I really don't dare to imagine that there will be such a huge change."

Everything in my childhood in my memories seems to be extremely interesting, but what Lu Ye felt during this period was that there was indeed a lot of hardships and fatigue.

Perhaps because of this, when relatively material conditions are not abundant, some good things will be magnified by the memory filters later, which will be particularly worth remembering.

"Get out, get off. I can't ride in here anymore."

About twenty minutes later, on the side of an uphill road, Lu Huoxing once again pointed his feet and stopped his bicycle.

Lu Ye looked at the familiar road, and as soon as he hurrified, he climbed to the side of the road and walked straight ahead.

"I can't even ride in this road. I used to take Yuanlan and almost arrived at the doorstep."

Ye Yuanqiu, who came down from the back seat, looked at the stopped bicycle and glanced at Lu Huoxing in disgust.

"Ha!" Lu Huoxing chuckled, "I remember what my second sister said. There was a man riding a bicycle from the road to the field at the age of 18 or 19."

"Fart!" Ye Yuanqiu angrily beat Lu Huoxing, "I want you to tell me that's not me."

"Hahaha, okay, okay, it's not you, it's not you." Lu Huoxing begs for mercy quickly, "Let's go."

Lu Ye ignored his parents behind him, and had already stepped on his calves and headed towards the path below the slope.

The roadsides are dry in winter, so this path is not too narrow, at least you can still ride a bicycle.

However, after a little bit of it, I basically couldn't ride it.

The floor of the road inside was paved with large and small stones. In the past, in order to prevent the road from being muddy, stones and pebbles were laid on the ground to facilitate people to walk.

But it will be a bit difficult to pass whether it is a bicycle or a bicycle.

In Lu Ye's memory, he hadn't walked this path for 10 or 20 years.

Almost after my grandmother passed away, my uncle had moved from here to the county town, and no one lived in the old house anymore.

His uncle and second aunt's house are still in Yuanqiao Village, but they are still a distance from their grandparents' house.

Several times Lu Ye drove by, but only took a look from a distance.

The family walked along the path, and there were two or three families on the side of the road. The family was a blue brick bungalow, which seemed to have been repaired for a short time.

The other one is a house surrounded by loess walls. There are big trees in the yard and a loess house inside.

On the other side of the road, there is a field pit that is about two meters high, and there are rice fields below.

Lu Ye probably heard his elders say something about Lu Huoxing and Ye Yuanqiu just now, which is considered an embarrassing thing about his mother Ye Yuanqiu.

Once, I rode a bicycle and took her third aunt to pass these stone roads, but accidentally, both sisters fell into the field.

Fortunately, the fields were muddy and they were not injured. However, occasionally their sisters chatted with each other and would use it as topic of conversation.

Walking further forward, gradually an old house with continuous loess brick walls appeared.

The construction pattern is different from most of the time, and it is still the same as it has been for dozens or hundreds of years. However, it is probably due to the terrain, which seems a bit crowded, with two entry points on both sides and some other houses built later.

Lu Ye knew that this was because he lived in two families. In addition to his grandparents' house, there was also his three father-in-law's family, which was his grandfather's younger brother's family.

The house is very spacious, but Lu Ye roughly calculated the population of the two families. You can imagine that it was actually quite cramped at that time.

"Um?"

While walking on the road, Lu Ye looked up and suddenly saw an old woman wearing a dark blue cloth, wearing an apron, and white hair as white as silver thread leaning against the door.

It seemed that he had seen Lu Ye and his family appear, and hurriedly walked out of the gate.

"grandmother!"

Lu Ye shouted loudly.

He turned back to Lu Huoxing and Ye Yuanqiu behind him and shouted: "Mom and Dad, hurry up."

As he said that, he trotted to the old woman at the door, "Grandma, we are here to wish you a happy new year."

"Okay, okay." The silver-haired old woman smiled and grabbed Lu Ye's hand and said intimately, "Is it cold on the road? Come in and roast the fire quickly."

"It's not cold." Lu Ye raised his head and looked at the old woman in front of him, and his heart was filled with warmth.

This is his grandmother Chen Yunying. In fact, he only knew how to call her grandmother since he was a child, but he didn't even know her grandmother's name. Later, Lu Ye worked and asked her about it when he asked her when he was chatting with her mother.

In fact, compared to his grandfather who lives under the roof, he is closer to his grandparents.

Although Lu Ye did not think about the general reason, he could still draw a conclusion.

One is that his grandfather is restrained by nature and cannot express feelings. He doesn't seem to like children to make noise. Another is that his grandfather married two grandmothers and both passed away. In addition, his grandfather and grandmother's relatives obviously need to be more harmonious, so he subconsciously approaches here.

"That's great!"

Feeling the heat coming from the old man's rough, dry but warm palms, Lu Ye sincerely felt a warm feeling.

I can pass through time and see you again.

Perhaps compared to other meanings of life, this is no longer possible to measure.

"mom!"
