cause and effect

Chapter 10

After the two left the kindergarten, Song Changsheng wanted to take some time off to go to the shopping mall in the city to buy some clothes for Song Song.He asked Zhang Gangfeng to go back to the factory first, Zhang Gangfeng leaned on the car and looked at him quietly without saying anything, Song Changsheng said helplessly: "I'll go first" and turned to walk to the bus stop sign, Zhang Gangfeng stared at his back After a while, get on the car and start it.

"Didi" approached Song Changsheng near the stop sign, and suddenly there was a horn sound behind Song Changsheng. He turned his head and it turned out to be the familiar car.The car stopped beside him steadily, Song Changsheng sighed and opened the passenger's door and sat in, he knew this would be the result.Although he hasn't known the man around him for too long, he knows him very well. He knows that if this man decides on one thing, he will never give up his stubbornness and make people helpless.During breakfast, he mentioned that he wanted to go to the city after sending Song Song off. Zhang Gangfeng said that he could accompany him if he had nothing to do, but Song Changsheng immediately refused.He felt that he couldn't bother this person anymore, but he also knew that this person would not regret it after making a decision. He thought that maybe he had something to do and couldn't go with him, so this scene happened.

Zhang Gangfeng glanced at Song Changsheng who was staring at the road in a daze. Song Changsheng knew him, and he also knew Song Changsheng.He knew that Song Changsheng must be sorry for bothering him, he said: "I'm going home, remember to call me when I come back in the afternoon", Song Changsheng hummed, suddenly remembered the sentence that the child has never left his father, his thoughts gradually get farther away.

Song Changsheng was 22 years old that year. After graduating from university, he was not busy looking for a job in that city like other graduates, but returned to his hometown to find a job in the town.The classmates said he was stupid and they avenged him for injustice. They felt that it was a shame for a top accounting student to work as an accountant in a small broken factory.But he doesn't think so. He thinks that although the salary is not high, the life is relatively easy.His grandfather was old enough to farm and raise livestock by himself. Song Changsheng persuaded the old man not to work so hard.Grandpa always said with a smile that he couldn't do less, and he had to save money to give birth to a son and marry a daughter-in-law!After graduation, he resolutely returned to his hometown, in order to lighten the burden on the elderly.

Songjia Village is relatively remote and the surrounding terrain is relatively flat. The only thing worth mentioning is a small lake.I don't know when the lake was formed. It is located beside Songjia Village, because its existence makes the terrain of Songjia Village look a little higher.

Grandpa has lived in the village all his life. The house at home is an old earthen house. There are a total of 5 rooms facing south and the 3 rooms with the most sunshine. Song Changsheng lives with his grandfather.The west room is the kitchen, and the south room is the cowshed. Song Changsheng lives in the north room with his grandfather, and the grandfather lives in two of the three rooms. Song Changsheng lives next to him.

Song Changsheng remembered that on the day he came home, his grandfather had already tidied up the house, and the quilts and bedding had also been dried. As soon as he got close, he could smell the warm sunshine.He bought some things for the old man. Grandpa smiled and said, "It's good to be back when you come back. Why do you buy so many things? Grandpa doesn't lack anything. Sit down and let grandpa take a look." Grandpa pulled Song Changsheng looked at him over and over again and said with relief: "My baby has grown up, grown up." Song Changsheng held the old man's hand and said, "Grandpa, I have already graduated, and I won't go there anymore. Stay with grandpa", grandpa said with a smile, "you can do whatever you want."

The Song family's yard is very large, and the cow is tied in the yard during the day, and that cow saved Grandpa a lot of energy.But it has also invisibly increased a lot. A cow needs to eat a lot of food every day. The hay for winter needs to be prepared in summer. Grandpa mows the grass almost every day.Song Changsheng's job is to be busy for a few days at the beginning of the month and the end of the month. The rest of the time is basically nothing. Song Changsheng takes care of cutting the lawn, cooking and cleaning the house.

Grandpa was 70 years old at the time, with a particularly strong body and a wrinkled face full of vicissitudes.Song Changsheng was white and tender when he first returned to his hometown, but his skin became rough after a period of farm work, and on the contrary, he became more masculine.

The weeds are very strong by the lake, and grandpa often cuts the grass there, but he strictly forbids Song Changsheng to go there, he said that the lake is more evil, so it is better for him not to go there.Song Changsheng didn't take it seriously. He often saw people in the village pulling water from the lake to irrigate their crops. He also saw many people fishing by the lake, and he didn't hear anything strange about it.

This afternoon, Song Changsheng finished mowing the grass and was about to go home. When he passed by the lake, he found that the weeds were very lush.Song Changsheng walked to the lake without knowing it. He had secretly played by the lake with his friends when he was a child, and he knew that the lake was very beautiful and clear.But the scenery in front of him still made him feel shocked. The light of the setting sun hit the lake surface to form a golden ripple, and the lake surface seemed to be covered with a layer of gold.Song Changsheng was deeply attracted by the scenery in front of him, and walked to the water's edge without knowing it. He stretched out his hand to touch the lake water.The cool water hitting his hand was very comfortable. He stared at the lake for a while and saw something vaguely.Song Changsheng blinked in disbelief and looked like the surface of the water again.This time it was much clearer than last time. He stared blankly at the surface of the water, then suddenly withdrew his hand and turned around to run.Song Changsheng had never been so scared when he grew up, and what he saw just now overturned his years of worldview.A group of people looked at the sky in amazement and mumbled what they were talking about. Suddenly, the picture changed to a handsome man holding a baby in his arms. He looked at the child with a smile on his face. There was a trace of sadness in that smile. He said something, the handsome man nodded and kissed the baby's forehead, the handsome man hugged him tightly with a trace of sadness on his face.When the picture turned, the two handsome men were still lying on the bed with a big belly. The British man was holding his hand and his ears were pressed tightly against his stomach. Both of them had happy smiles on their faces.Immediately afterwards, Song Changsheng saw a scene that he never wanted to see in his life. Many big stones fell from the sky and destroyed houses. Many people died in the chaos. There were children, old people and young people. The black panthers turned into small light spots and flew into the sky, leaving only piles of stones and a group of sad people on the ground.In a panic, Song Changsheng heard someone calling his name, and he ran home without looking back.

Song Changsheng stopped when he was almost running to the door of the house. He calmed down and wiped the sweat off his head.When Song Changsheng came home, his grandfather hadn't come back yet. He washed his face with cold water to ease his restless mood. He put the prepared meals on the table and the day after tomorrow, his grandfather had already been wiped black before he came back.

Song Changsheng heard the door ring and hurried to the yard to meet the old man. The old man walked into the cowshed with a straw basket full.When Song Changsheng saw the straw basket in his hand, his heart skipped a beat and he thought to himself that he would definitely be scolded soon.The dinner was relatively silent. After the meal, Song Changsheng was about to clear the table. The old man stopped him. The old man said, "Son, I ran into your fourth uncle when I just came back. Your fourth uncle said that he saw you by the lake from a distance. Sitting, he just wanted to talk to you, but you turned around and ran away. No matter how much he told you, you didn’t look back. He chased you and ran for two steps, and he tripped over the straw basket, only to realize that you ran away without even taking the straw basket. , what’s wrong with running so fast?” Song Changsheng opened his mouth and said, “It’s okay, Grandpa. Looking at him, he sighed and walked out without saying a word.Song Changsheng heaved a sigh of relief. He didn't want to deceive Grandpa, but somehow he just didn't want to tell anyone what he saw.
