Today is October 24th, the birthday of Yan Hengxian's brothers, and I only found out in the evening. His brother came back from Fuyang, and I called Up Changhong to come from hushu and the three of them to have a barbecue at the door together. After today, the Hengxian brothers will be 33 years old.
There was no wine table where he was, it was cold and silent, I was not good at drinking and did not like to be lively, and the three of us talked about many past events and regrets. Brother Heng Xian's life is a good wine, friends always give people the feeling of being alive and full of vitality, after drinking he will always go to grab his friends' words, argue and talk loudly with his friends. He always had an inexhaustible strength in his body, he was warm-hearted, loyal and loyal, and inserted knives into the ribs of his friends.
If he were still here, today would have been a great table of people who would have gone to drink his wine. To be honest, he should have been the one who would have been most willing to let me attend, but I don't know if he would have called me. Because, he knows that I never spend my birthday outside, and I don't like to be too noisy, and now no one will worry about it. Never remembered his birthday, this time it made me unforgettable! It is very strange that the three of us are drinking wine, talking about brotherhood and the impermanence of life, on the wall of the barbecue restaurant, but suddenly for unknown reasons "click" a little, and then the lights in the store are suddenly bright and dark, and there are several other tables of customers sitting in the store, do not know what the reason is. After waiting for a few minutes, I said half-jokingly that it might be that the Hen hsien brothers were coming back to see that we wanted to drink at the bar. The owner told us to move to the next room to continue eating, at 22:40 we ended home, asked the boss that it had been repaired, just now it was the outside fire line and the zero line to build iron burned. We pay the bill to go, ask how much money the boss lady opened her mouth and said 480 yuan, give 470, Changhong asked why it is 470, the boss lady said to give you cheap. We felt unlucky and ended up paying $468...
About 15 years, I was working on a farm in Lishui, in May of that year we looked for strawberry seedlings everywhere, drove through the lake and happened to see him giving strawberry seedlings medicine in the field, and then asked him if he had any seedlings to sell, how much was a tree... Our friendship and friendship began at that time, and later when I didn't understand growing strawberries, I asked him to let him help often, and found that he was very warm and frank, and he had a very good impression of him. In 16 years, we disbanded the farm, gave him some farm things, and also gave him a lot of boxes of strawberries, and the photos and texts on the boxes were all taken and written by me, and he continued to use our name, Five Star Farm, as his own name for strawberry farm.
Hengxian brothers hometown is Guizhou Liupanshui people, 17 years old first from guizhou hometown to Wenzhou a factory to make glasses, and then to Zhejiang Jiande his sister to learn to grow strawberries, Jiande is the hometown of strawberries, planting strawberries is a technical job, the general Zhejiang people do not teach outsiders, is to teach will not be fully taught. When I met him, I should have been growing strawberries independently for only a year or two, when his mother was still helping him. In Linquan, Fuyang, his sister hugged me and said that her brother was the most miserable, and others still had someone to help him, he was a person who didn't even have a straw to help, his life was very short, and his life was too bitter and pitiful. We drove two cars to Fuyang, eight friends went to see the place, can't believe it is such a shallow place, a car of seven people, even his wife and daughter can escape and climb out of the car, as far as his father and son did not save life, is this life? He also knew that the road to heaven was lonely, so he took his 6-year-old son with him and left a young daughter to give his wife a companion and not to live too tired.
It was all late, we couldn't believe it, it was all men in their 30s who went, and several people were sadly shedding tears. I don't know what's going on, but I'm surprisingly calm and rational, and when his sister hugs me and cries, I can't say the taste in my heart. We burned a lot of paper money where his father and son had an accident, hoping that his father and son would no longer be poor and the road.
Fuyang to Nanjing to drive five hours, I arrived at home nearly 2 o'clock in the morning, not sleepy at all, lit nine sticks of incense for him, sat at the desk can no longer hold back the tears in his eyes. There is only one sister in my hometown, no brother, before I always felt that there was something to call Xiao Yan, he would always spare no effort to appear and do a good job in the first time. So, my parents, uncles, brothers-in-law, cousins, cousins, and many other leaders, comrades-in-arms, and fellow countrymen all knew him. Often joke with him, Boss Yan is incredible, Boss Yan is a philosopher, Boss Yan is bullish... He would always laugh out loud and laugh, and also joked that there was food to eat with the boss, and the boss said that he would fight wherever he wanted...
Brother Hengxian is a very grateful person, he respects me in his heart, and every time he drinks, he is afraid that I will tell him that he is out of shape and scolds him. He once told his family and friends that knowing me was the luck of his life, and that I was his nobleman. At that time, I also listened to laughter and laughter, and I didn't take it seriously. Now, when others are gone, I suddenly feel like I am missing something very important in my life. Unexpectedly, this is a farewell! This farewell made me deeply feel that I was already as close as he was to my brother, but I didn't cherish it so much and have a clear perception before...
