65438+August 0945.

He is a postman, which is his busiest time. Shuttling through the streets every day, he just delivers two kinds of news, one is good news and the other is bad news. When delivering good news, he is regarded as a happy robin; When delivering bad news, he was regarded as a crying crow.

Of course, he likes to be a robin and give people good news, but during the war years, bad news was overwhelming, so he was asked to be a robin too few times, and more was sad news. For example, this time, all he has to do is crow.

This letter was sent from an army. He has seen too many such letters, mostly the news that soldiers were killed. He found the address and a clean old woman opened the door for him.

"Aunt, your letter." He handed her the letter.

"Oh, ok, thank you." The old woman eagerly took the letter, but she didn't open it in a hurry, but put it on her chest and held it tightly. It seems that she is distressed that this letter has run so far, tired and cold, and needs to be warmed by her body temperature. Or, she is praying that he is a robin, not a crow.

He turned to go, but was stopped by the old woman. He went back to the house and took out the polysaccharide and put it in his pocket. "Victory, victory, eat sugar, eat sugar." She said that those sweets were kept for her son piece by piece, waiting for them to come back to eat after the victory of the Anti-Japanese War.

She said, "Young man, I can't read. Can you read this letter for me? I asked my neighbor to help me read my son's last two letters. "

He opened the letter, and sure enough, it was bad news-the news that her son was killed in battle. The old woman looked at him with infinite expectation in her eyes. He couldn't bear to read it honestly and was in a dilemma. He didn't know how to serve her this cup of bitter water.

Finally, he decided to tell the truth. He crossed out a few words at the beginning of the "death notice" and read: "This is our soldier Wang Xiaohu, 23 years old, from Heilongjiang. Since joining the army, I have fought bravely and killed countless enemies ... "

"Uh-huh, it's my son, my son ..." The old woman shouted excitedly. Obviously, she took this letter as a commendation order.

"I told you, God will always leave me one. I have three sons. The eldest brother and the second son went to the battlefield, and the devil died in a daze without killing many. At that time, there was a third child. My neighbor advised me not to let him be a soldier, but I wouldn't listen and forced him to go to the front to kill those wolves that eat people. " The old woman proudly said, "After killing so many devils, he is still an old man."

"Well, it's amazing. He is a great hero. " He should be with that old woman. He obviously brought the old woman a cup of bitter water, but the old woman thought it was a cup of sugar water. He is worried that if she tells the truth at this time, she will be at a loss.

"Young man, keep reading." The old woman urged him.

"Oh, nothing else. People in the army said that your son will come back soon after the reorganization of the army." He lied because he hated crows and took the liberty of turning himself into a robin.

The old woman happily took the letter, folded it, put it back in the envelope, and put it on her chest to keep warm.

He doesn't know how long this lie will last, but he thinks even a lie is better than despair. As long as this lie is not debunked one day, it will give the old man hope one day. He has no regrets about his lies.

He admired the old woman's three sons, who fought bravely on the battlefield, but he was a timid little postman in the rear. She also admired the hero's mother and did not hesitate to send her three sons to the front to kill the enemy. What a boldness of vision it needs!

At this moment, he misses his mother who died many years ago.

Suddenly, an idea appeared in his mind, and he was even a little excited about it.

"Aunt, if you don't mind, can I be your adopted son?" "God, what day is it today? It' s really a double happiness! " The old woman hugged him in tears. "I knew God wouldn't be so heartless ..."

He knelt down in front of the old woman, knocked his head three times and called "Mom".

He thought to himself, tell her the truth slowly when the old man has something to rely on. When he marries a daughter-in-law, he must have more children to make up for the old lady's lost affection. Eat sugar every day and slowly turn the bitterness of the previous few days into sweetness.

He took out a register and told her that she needed a signature to prove that she had received the letter. I forgot that she couldn't read, so I picked up a pen and signed it for her.

The old woman was surprised. "You haven't asked my name, so why did you sign it?"

He smiled. "Of course I know your name. It's written on the envelope. But that's not my name. "

As he spoke, he opened his register. At the bottom of it is written two words: mother.
