The regret in the old man's eyes flashed, and then fell on the photo in Tang Ling's hand.
"Can you do it, young man?"
"Yes," Tang Ling nodded, "but you have to wait an hour." ” "Oh, as long as it's an hour, then I'll rest here with you, okay," the old man was a little surprised.
"Feel free."
Tang Ling said with a smile.
The old man walked around the exhibition hall, looking at all kinds of pottery.
In his spare time, Tang Ling also makes some other things, such as common pottery such as bowls and bottles, as well as some gadgets with great personal creativity.
However, the most impressive thing is obviously only Tang Guo's life-size puppet, as well as the just-completed Gu Qian costume puppet.
These two pieces, both in terms of appearance and size, can make people marvel.
The old man first looked at some other small things, and then saw Gu Qian's life-size puppet, and while marveling at Tang Ling's craftsmanship, he found the "Tang Guo" in the window.
Perhaps because of their age, the elderly seem to be particularly interested in children.
"Young man, is this your daughter" The old man looked at "Tang Guo" and smiled.
Tang Ling brought some porcelain clay over, saw the old man standing in front of "Tang Guo", and said with a smile, "Yes, the little guy is more than four years old."
"It's good, it's lively when there are children," As he spoke, the old man sat on the sofa in the exhibition hall and watched Tang Ling pull the embryo.
The older generation of people have special respect for craftsmen, in their time, there is a craft that is really the same as a unique job, maybe a person in the village can carpenter, then this person's status in the village is particularly high, many people want furniture, have to come to the door to ask for it.
The old man quietly watched Tang Ling do things without disturbing.
Tang Ling was embarrassed to leave an old man aside, and then asked, "Look at your appearance, you are eighty this year." ” The old man smiled and stretched out five fingers to gessy, "I'm ninety-five this year." ” The old man was very proud, and shook his head slightly when he spoke, and his strength was about the same as that of a man in his forties and fifties.
Tang Ling was also taken aback by the old man's age, it stands to reason that the old man in his nineties will basically be very inconvenient to move, the old man not only speaks neatly, but also looks like his legs and feet are very good, it is not too much to say that he is in his seventies.
"Your wound must have been left at that time."
At the age of more than 90, it is obvious that he has survived the most difficult period in China, and the people of that period can be said to be in purgatory on earth, and it is really not easy to live to such an old age.
"You mean the scar on the neck, this is when I fled with the troops, in order to pick fruit from a tree to eat, I accidentally fell down and was scratched by a branch, and I didn't die."
The old man said these things very indifferently, but from his words, Tang Ling could feel what kind of environment it was at that time.
"We can have the life we have today, and thank you."
Tang Ling said from the bottom of his heart.
The old man waved his hand, "Don't say what I say is so noble, I'm also for myself, if I don't drive those little Japan away, I won't survive."
Now many people are talking about how fearless the Red Army was in the past, but in fact, we were also afraid, and we were also shaken. ” "But I'm afraid it's useless, so everyone is fighting with their lives, we didn't have guns in our hands at that time, there were no guns, four people could kill a little Japan, the clothes they wore were all small Japanese, and even their clothes were gone after the fight, and the equipment was all other people's, we didn't have it."
Speaking of this, the old man's eyes turned red, as if he remembered those experiences when he was young, and the sadness was like a fish in his throat.
Tang Ling had not experienced life during that period, and he could understand the old man's feelings, but he could not empathize.
However, it is still necessary to remember history, at least this new China, which was forged by the blood of our ancestors, needs to be engraved with these spirits.
"Don't be too sad."
Tang Ling said.
The old man smiled, "Don't be sad, the world is very good now." ” It doesn't get much better than having clothes to wear, food to eat, and a bed to sleep in.
The two chatted, and Tang Ling also knew that the old man's name was Xiao Weiguo, and he had lived in Jiangcheng for more than forty years, living alone and having no children.
I usually go to the big square of Jiangcheng to play chess with others, pick up rags, and live a very leisurely life.
After chatting for about half an hour, Tang Guo suddenly ran down from upstairs, and as soon as he called his father, he found an old man sitting on the sofa, and he suddenly behaved a little cramped.
"Guoguo, called Grandpa Xiao."
Tang Ling said.
Tang Guo glanced at Xiao Weiguo and slowly walked to Tang Ling's side, "Hello Grandpa Xiao" Xiao Weiguo smiled, "Eh, good, good, Guoguo, it's so beautiful." ” Tang Guo was a little shy, glanced at Xiao Weiguo, and then leaned in Tang Ling's ear and whispered, "Dad, Grandpa Xiao is so scary." ” When she saw the scar on Xiao Weiguo's neck, she was a little afraid to look at it directly.
"That's when Grandpa Xiao beat the bad guys away and was hurt by the bad guys."
Tang Ling saw that Tang Guo was a little afraid, so he explained, although there were some discrepancies with the facts.
Sure enough, after Tang Ling finished speaking, Tang Guo's eyes were different, especially after being affected by the chivalrous feelings in Tianlong Babu, Tang Guo liked the good people who punished the traitors and eliminated the evil very much.
"Really, Grandpa Xiao is so powerful," Tang Guo said.
When Xiao Weiguo heard this, he was praised by a little girl, as if he was much happier than Tang Ling had thanked him before.
"Guoguo, grandpa is not good, your father is great," Xiao Weiguo said with a smile.
Tang Guo shook his head when he heard this, "Grandpa Xiao is powerful, Dad is also powerful, Dad is a superman, and he can also beat bad guys" "Hahaha."

Xiao Weiguo was amused by Tang Guo's words, "Well, Guoguo is right, being able to beat bad guys is the most powerful" "Grandpa Xiao, have you beaten a lot of bad guys," Tang Guo asked.
Xiao Weiguo nodded, "Of course, grandpa fought more bad guys back then than you have ever seen, and there are a lot of interesting stories in it, do you want to hear it." ” "I want to listen" Tang Guo trotted to Xiao Weiguo's side, sat on the side, raised his little head, and looked at him.
Xiao Weiguo has no children, but he seems to like children very much, and the stories are told one after another, and Tang Guo keeps saying it if he wants to hear it.
After talking for more than an hour, Tang Ling's puppets were finished, and Xiao Weiguo was still continuing, one was talking energetically, and the other was also listening.
Seeing that it was about to be dinner, Tang Ling interrupted Xiao Weiguo after putting up the puppet.
"Uncle Xiao, let's eat here today" Xiao Weiguo looked at the time and immediately got up, "No, there is still something at home."
By the way, Don Jr., how much is this. ” "Fifty."
Tang Ling didn't dare to say that it was free, he knew very well the stubbornness of these older generations, if you said it was free, he might give more.
"Really" Xiao Weiguo was a little skeptical, he could see that these dolls were very finely made.
"I open a store to do business, but I can't deceive you," Tang Ling said with a smile.
"Okay then."
Xiao Weiguo took out a few crumpled ten yuan from his pocket, then took out a handful of change in another pocket, counted for a while and made up fifty yuan, "Xiao Tang, don't dislike it, the money is a little" "Don't dislike it, it's money" Tang Ling took the money in Xiao Weiguo's hand and put it in his pocket.
Xiao Weiguo smiled, and then waved his hand to Tang Guo, "Guoguo, is it okay for grandpa to tell you a story next time?"
"Mmmm, grandpa must come," Tang Guo said while holding Xiao Weiguo's hand.
"Row" The door of the store opened, and Xiao Weiguo gradually left.
"Dad, Grandpa Xiao is so amazing" Tang Guo was attracted by the story told by Xiao Weiguo.
"Grandpa Xiao is a soldier," Tang Ling touched Tang Guo's head.
"Are soldiers more powerful than Superman," Tang Guo asked, tilting his head.
"Of course," Tang Ling said loudly.
"Why" Tang Guo was puzzled.
"Because soldiers will die, Superman won't."
Tang Ling looked out the door.
Tang Guo was still puzzled.
Tang Ling grinned and picked up Tang Guo.
"But they are not afraid of death" I'm lucky today, I don't have news to run, I took the time to write for a while, I feel like it will take less than two or three days, and I see if I can fix the time for three more days a day in the next two days In addition, the school has started, and everyone is not happy:
