Jiao Fangyue is here.

The autumn wind is getting tighter, and Song Delu is sitting in the sun on the lounge chair in the park.

The name Song Delu is not common. It sounds so elegant that it somehow reminds people of Wang Xizhi and Liu Zongyuan. This is no wonder, because Song Delu was not born in this era. Nowadays, most young people are called Yingjie, Wenbo and Zhiyuan, and Song Delu is an old man in his sixties.

He retired a few years ago, and now his main job is to bask in the sun in the park. Many old people like to gather together in the park with stereos to dance square dance, but Song Delu doesn't like square dance. First of all, he can't stand the strong earthy music. Their dance steps really don't look good, like the broadcast gymnastics that primary school students do every day. Song delu could dance when he was young. He was wearing a suit and tie, holding his partner's waist in one hand and holding her in the other. Accompanied by elegant piano music or violin music, they walked slowly, and perfect circles bloomed on the dance floor. After singing, colleagues will applaud him, he will put one hand on his chest, and the gentleman will bend over to thank him.

During his career of forty or fifty years, Song Delu gave gifts to many colleagues, such as getting married, having children at full moon, children being admitted to a good university, and the death of an old man ... The gift money has also changed from a dozen dollars to two or three hundred dollars now. Song Delu was only given three gifts by his colleagues, one was to move, the other was the death of his mother, and the last was the death of his father. Because Song Delu has never been married, there is no such thing as a full moon for children.

A few days ago, the weather suddenly cooled down. Song Delu caught a bad cold and had a fever and cough. It's really not easy for adults to catch a cold. The adult's immune system is close to perfection, and the small cold virus has been cleared by immune cells in the body before it rages. Only children have colds and fever from time to time, but Song Delu is an old man now, and his strong immune system is gradually out of reach. He has become a child with low immunity again.

That was when I got up in the morning. When Song Del opened his eyes, it was already past nine o'clock. It is still a good time for young people to dream after nine o'clock in the morning, but for the elderly who are not sleepy, it is time to go home after visiting the vegetable market at nine o'clock. He struggled to stand up and then had to lie down. His head hurts, his whole body is as heavy as a heavy object, and he still feels cold. After a short rest, he struggled to get up and picked up the thermometer, 39.6. This is not a good number. This picture shows that if you add 0.4, the gelu will be half cooked.

If you just have a cold, you can fight twice, but a man with a high fever can't help it. Your brain is at an unusually high temperature, just like a fish about to dehydrate. You can't give instructions to all the organs of your body correctly to make them work in harmony. I have to get up and go to the hospital. He groped for the edge of the bed, trying to put his feet on the ground, but his arm didn't have enough strength, and he couldn't support himself after shaking for a long time. He is considering whether to call the emergency center, but isn't it a bit ridiculous to call 120 just because he has a cold and fever? It may even delay the time of some people who need emergency rescue more. He resigned himself to his fate and prayed that the immune system would have the courage to fight a war.

It was already one o'clock in the afternoon when he woke up again. His throat hurts as if it had been burned. Fortunately, his body gradually recovered some strength, and he finally got up and poured himself a cup of hot water. Although he doesn't feel hungry, he can't break down without eating. He took out his mobile phone and wanted to order a takeaway for himself. But his hands were shaking so badly that he couldn't open the lock. His mobile phone has no portrait unlocking function, and he doesn't want to expose his appearance in front of it. He heard that a fraudster can take out all the money in your bank card just by taking a photo. He put his mobile phone on the table, warmed himself a bag of milk and took the slices of bread in the refrigerator. Then I dug out some cold medicines such as cephalosporin and ibuprofen from the medicine cabinet and drank them.

The unique hypnotic effect of cold medicine made his head groggy, but he had slept all night and slept until 1 pm during the day, so he really couldn't sleep. The wind is blowing outside the window, and the yellow leaves are swirling in the air. In a daze, he remembered the land again. It is not the "soul mate" of Lin Xiangru, a senior official of Zhao State, who offers a humble apology, but the "soul mate" who cares for each other. He doesn't know if there will be a sister named Lu. Lu Xiangyu is not the name that will be given in this era, and the only person who can be remembered by him can only be the people of his era.

Since the founding of the People's Republic of China, Song Delu has met countless beauties, such as Showa singers in Japan, TVB beauties in Hong Kong and Macao, top idols in South Korea, sexy actresses in Europe and America ... but if you ask him who is the most beautiful woman he has ever seen, he will subconsciously think of it. How beautiful is Lv Xiangyu? He doesn't know. He just thinks it's beautiful. When he was sixteen, he met Lu. Now he is over 60 years old. More than fifty years is enough time for him to forget her appearance. After a long time, he only left a stubborn name, a stubborn person who didn't want to forget.

He doesn't have a photo of Lu-in fact, he once had a photo of senior three students and teachers when they graduated from high school. Lu Xiangruo stood in the crowd, wearing a ponytail and smiling quietly, like a peach blossom in the rain and fog. At that time, it was still a black and white photo. After a series of developing, fixing, bleaching, washing and drying with expensive film, the final product can be obtained. The complicated process and long time make every photo particularly precious. Unlike now, any mobile phone can take photos, connect a Bluetooth printer, and you can have a high-definition color photo in less than three seconds. It's as simple as that.

After graduating from college, he felt that he would never forget landing again, so he tore up the photos and threw them into the garbage pool with the garbage in the plastic bag. When he wanted to pick it up when he regretted it the next day, the garbage pool had already ignited a raging fire, and the choking smell filled his nose. At that time, people didn't talk about environmental protection. What energy do people who can't afford to eat have to talk about environmental protection? It's all a fire, clean, simple and rude.

Later, he read a poem by Xi Murong. At the end of the poem, the poetess wrote: "Crossing the river, there are thousands of hibiscus flowers; The poem is simple and the heart is simple. " It's really good. What a simple time it was. It's easy to lose a person's last bit of information. From then on, she and you only have some increasingly vague memories, and the human brain is the most unreliable memory tool.

Of course, he has no contact information. At that time, people had no contact information, let alone mobile phone WeChat and so on. People make a living by cycling on concrete roads. The old train with a green shell spewed thick black smoke and crashed between the river and Shan Ye. At that time, people went to the post office the most. The postman walked across the street with a linen bag on his shoulder and handed one letter after another to his owner. People use hero pens dipped in dark blue ink, and lines of emotional words are spread on stationery. Some important letters will also be written on vertical paper with a brush, and the recipient needs to read them from right to left and from top to bottom. Romantically, ancient people used geese to pass books. People often write good handwriting, unlike today's children who only send out some messy expression packs.

Song Delu didn't write to me, or he did, but he didn't receive it. The reason why Lu Xiangyuan didn't receive it was that Song Delu didn't send a letter to the post office. Song Delu didn't send a letter to the post office because he didn't know Lu Xiangyuan's address. At that time, high schools were not available in every county, so we had to take a long-distance bus to the city for a day or two. There are too many people in a city, and there may be more than one person named Lu. When Song Delu wrote his first letter, he found that he didn't know where to send it. The credit is wrapped in brown kraft paper, and the cover is written in exquisite fonts-Miss Lu, living in Mr. Song Delu's heart.

He tried to recall Lu's memory, but he couldn't remember anything. I think he told me, but he was rejected, that's all. In the era of Song Delu, it was shocking that a man never married. Even if his daughter-in-law dies, he will have a second wife. Under the pressure of society and parents, Song Lu kissed several times. He was wearing a Chinese tunic suit, and the girl wore thick braids and new clothes dyed with coarse cloth. They sat stiffly in the living room of the county party branch, with an enamel jar filled with brewed coarse tea in front of each person.

The girls are very satisfied with Song Delu who has a college diploma. At that time, college students were more expensive than Dr. Gui now. Song delu was still a cadre of the party branch at that time, but he was an official. The most important thing is that Song Deyu is full of scholar temperament, elegant in speech and different in sitting posture from others, which is completely different from that of a lout working in a foreign country. But every girl reminds Song De of Lu Xiang. Some of them have Lu Xiang's eyes, some have Lu Xiang's mouth, some have Lu Xiang's voice ... but none of them are Lu Xiang's.

Married for three years in the county party branch, she is polite and respectful to every girl. But after each blind date, he didn't take the initiative to find that girl. When the girl came to have dinner with him, he also refused his job. Until the fourth year, no one finally introduced him to a girl, because this year Song Delu was labeled as a "rightist" and was driven to the countryside to herd sheep.

Song delu is a city resident. He has never done farm work in his life. The village chief immediately gave him a hundred sheep and told him to lead them to the hillside every day. After his release, Song Delu will hold a sign and stand in front of the farmers to tell his mistakes and experiences of herding sheep. Although you can't sit in the office and drink tea, you can lie on the grass and watch the sky. Song Lu is not too bad to think about it. The most important thing is that his parents finally won't rush him, and they are all driven out to herd sheep. What's the use of urging him? What girl will marry the "Rightists"?

He lies on the top of the slope, eats dry food when he is hungry, drinks spring water when he is thirsty, sleeps in the shade when he is hot, and wakes up thinking about the land. His sheep run all over the slope like cotton candy floating in the wind.

"Rightists" for ten years, Song Delu herded sheep for ten years. Some intelligent educated youths have long been corrected because they are good at herding sheep, farming or chopping wood. Song Deyu's sheep are really bad, and no one has taught him how to put them. Sometimes there are still a few sheep missing when we come back, and the angry village head leads everyone up the mountain to find them in the dark. Sometimes his sheep began to eat before they reached the mountain, and they ate the wheat seedlings of the village head's house, which made the village head very angry. Moreover, he won't pick a good grass and leave it for a year. Some sheep are thinner than he is hungry ... Song Delu thinks that the reason why the village chief didn't hit him is probably because he is very serious every time he makes a review, and everyone who listens is full of tears.

At first, the village chief was moved to tears, thinking that Song Lu was a good prospect who could "turn over a new leaf", but after a long time, the village chief was too lazy to talk to him. Song delu, this boy, always makes everyone cry, but then makes mistakes the next day. He is the kind of person who talks nonsense.

Without the recommendation letter from the village chief, Song Delu didn't panic. There are fewer sheep, wheat seedlings to eat, and hungry and thin sheep will be hungry and thin ... First of all, this sheep will not give Song Delu a bite even if it is fattened. Secondly, the village chief didn't invite him to eat his steamed bread. Most importantly, herding sheep is like running and playing, and you can take care of your meals freely every day. Song delu feels that life is complete.

Ten years later, Song Delu returned to the county seat, still a party branch, and was promoted to the next level. At this time, no one mentioned girls to him anymore. Occasionally introduce him to women who have been married twice. Their children are taller than Song Deyu ... His parents are old, and when they think that their children have suffered in the countryside for ten years, they will no longer force him.

Song Delu went to work peacefully and went to the ballroom to dance with his colleagues during the celebration. Some teenage colleagues winked at Song Delu, but he looked like an old monk who had been enlightened for many years. There may be some rumors that he is single, but Song Delu is decent and friendly, and he will help his colleagues when they are in trouble at home, so most people just joke with him and say that he is a contemporary "isaac newton".

Time passed, Song Delu's position was moving up and his hair was turning white, as if only his heart was still bright as before. So he retired as usual, fell ill as usual, went to the park to bask in the sun as usual, and thought of Lu as usual.

A bad cold and high fever made him much weaker and lost his old spirit. He suddenly realized that he was really old and had a kind of dying sadness. Song Delu considered the old nursing home, and now the national policy is very good. He is also a person who has devoted his life to the country and can spend the rest of his life in a nursing home for free. But when you go to a nursing home, you have to listen to others, eat and sleep on time, and you can't run around. Students from nearby universities will come to the nursing home to visit him regularly, tidy up his house and give him a manicure. He was in a wheelchair with a group of young faces behind him. When the photographer presses the shutter, the news will be titled "the comfortable life of veteran cadres in nursing homes". There will also be students majoring in hairdressing from technical schools coming to practice with him and cut a hairstyle that he can't accept. These students may be out of kindness or for voluntary sharing, but in any case, Song Delu doesn't want to be disturbed by them.

This winter is as cold as usual. As the year is approaching, Song Delu walks into the human resources office with a thick pie and elegant Victoria Christina Hesketh. The human resources office has warm air conditioning, and only one person is on duty.

"It may be rude to say this, but ... at your age, we really can't arrange any suitable work for you." The person in charge looked at Song Lu's crutches.

"No disrespect, you are quite right." Song Delu waved. "But I'm not looking for a job. I want to post a job and find a nanny. "

"Well, old man, I really want to help you, but the Spring Festival is in less than 20 days, and now is not the time to find a nanny." The person in charge is a little embarrassed. "If you are not in a hurry, we can release the recruitment information for you next spring when people come out to look for jobs."

"Ha, ha, ha, I understand, but my health is getting worse and worse recently, and I have no children and family. Some people worry that I will die in bed on New Year's Eve. No one knows. " Song Lu smiled.

The person in charge was also impressed by his black humor about death. He adjusted his glasses. "If you really want to hire a nanny now, that's great, but ... the cost may be much higher than before."

Near the end of the year, everyone wants to go home and reunite. Train tickets are rising, plane tickets are also rising, and vegetables and meat are also rising. This is the most precious time of the year, and no one wants to sacrifice. If you want someone to serve you, you will naturally get a higher price. "I know, it is not easy to find people at this time. But I still have some savings, which should be enough. " Song delu's eyes are sincere.

"It's very kind of you to understand." The person in charge breathed a sigh of relief, not because of this noisy person. "I can release the recruitment information for you, but you still don't hold out too much hope. According to my work experience, it is basically impossible to recruit people at this time. "

"It doesn't matter, you can publish it, and I didn't come with the determination to find it." Song Lu smiled kindly.

"Then please tell me the approximate requirements and salary, and I will sign you up." The person in charge is sitting in front of the computer.

Song Delu outlined his requirements, and the person in charge made some minor changes to help him recruit more people.

A few days later, Song Delu was sitting in the living room watching TV when the doorbell rang. Who will visit him as a lonely old man in the cold winter? Song Delu opened the door curiously.

That is an old lady who looks over 50 years old. Song delu didn't think he had seen her. "Who are you?"

"Are you Mr. Song? I saw your recruitment information on the human resources website and came for an interview today. " The old lady smiled a little stiffly.

"Please come in!" Song delu, get out of her way.

The old lady sat on the sofa and looked at the layout of the house. Song Lu made her a cup of tea.

"To be honest, I didn't expect that someone would really come at this time." Song delu spoke.

"I am idle at home alone, and my son, daughter-in-law and granddaughter are not coming back from other places for the New Year. I think it is better to find a part-time job. " The old lady explained with a smile.

"hmm ... may I ask your age conveniently?" Song Lu looked at her with some gray hair.

"I am a horse, and I am fifty-five years old this year." The old lady replied.

It is time to find yourself a 55-year-old nanny. Song Delu said shyly, "Do you have any experience as a nanny?"

"I have never been a nanny for people your age, but my granddaughter has been taken care of since she was a child." The old lady answered honestly.

That's totally inexperienced. Although it is said that old people are getting smaller, there is still a difference between old people and children, right? At best, the child falls down or something, but the old man always goes to the hospital. Song Delu then asked, "What about your health?"

"I'm just a little osteoporosis. My knee hurts easily when it rains. Everything else is healthy. I am blind and deaf. " The old lady went on to say.

"By the way, are you in a hurry to use money because of something recently?" Song Delu thinks that at such a big age, he may have something to hide when he comes out to work at the end of the year.

"This is not true. My son has a successful career. My wife died many years ago and I bought a house. I have no serious need to be hospitalized. " The old lady said with a smile.

Then why did you come to babysit? Song delu really can't figure it out. Isn't it good to watch TV at home? Besides, he doesn't want to hire an old lady. He didn't suddenly feel that something was wrong. The old lady can take him to the hospital. It is very likely that the old lady had a problem first when she was a nanny. Song Delu heard that people with osteoporosis are prone to fractures, and they have to spend money to take the old lady to see a doctor. He wants to recruit people who are young and capable of taking care of him.

As if seeing his doubts, the old lady explained to him, "I came after carefully reading Mr. Song's job advertisement. You need someone who can cook lunch and dinner for you, right? You clean and wash clothes twice a week, and you don't have to come over at other times. I'm not sleepy, and I get up early in the morning. I can cook you three meals. As for cleaning, I also sweep the floor at home every day. I see you have a vacuum cleaner. There's nothing wrong with that. Washing clothes is not difficult. You also have an automatic washing machine. I just throw the clothes in, wash them and hang them on the shelf. I think I can do all these jobs well, and I will trouble you today. "

The old lady's words are very polite and well-founded. It is true that she can meet the requirements of Song Lu, but she is a little old, which makes Song Lu determined.

"I think it is too much for one person to spend the New Year at home, and it is too much for two people to spend the New Year at home. I can still get some remuneration. " The old lady added.

Song Lu's mind moved slightly, and the two celebrated the New Year together ... Because his parents died one after another, Song Del celebrated the New Year alone. Although some relatives and friends called him and invited him to have dinner together, he was a stranger and it was really embarrassing to sit in someone else's house, and he had to give his children red envelopes. On New Year's Eve, he always cooks several dishes, drinks some wine and goes to bed as usual after watching the Spring Festival Gala. He looked at the old lady in front of him again and smiled kindly. It might be good to watch the Spring Festival Gala together. "Then try for a week? If I am satisfied, I will become a full member. I will pay my salary by the day during the probation period and by the month after I become a full member. Is that all right? "

"No problem!" The old lady looks very happy.

"I haven't asked your name yet?" Song Lu asked again.

"An Yimo, the' one silence' that takes care of each other." The old lady said with a smile.

Song delu is stupid.
