追忆我的爷爷

爷爷陈炳林,生于一九四〇年农历七月初九,于二〇二六年五月二十四日安然离世,享年八十六岁。我把他亲笔写下的回忆录重新认认真真地排好版,印成《陈炳林回忆录》,并写下这篇追忆。

爷爷陈炳林,生于一九四〇年农历七月初九,于二〇二六年五月二十四日(阴历四月初八)安然离世,享年八十六岁。

二〇一七年,我曾试着把爷爷亲笔写下的回忆录整理成一本小书,那时只整理出十几篇——还以为日后还有大把时间,可以一篇篇补、一段段问。

没有这样的时间了。

但是他写下的那些字还在。那些关于一九四二年灾荒里差一点饿死的婴儿、八岁得了天花连路都不会走的孩子、十八岁拉着架子车去云阳水库接病倒的父亲的少年、和奶奶在尹店庙会上重逢的年轻人、一辈子做人不亏心的县委笔杆子——都还在。我把它们重新认认真真地排好版,印成了这本《陈炳林回忆录》。

爷爷走的那天,阴历四月初八——正是六十四年前他和奶奶在尹店庙会重逢的同一天。爷爷常说凡事讲缘分。这日子,是真的合上了。

人留子孙,草留根。

这是一九四二年大灾荒里,太奶奶带着大伯远走他乡讨饭、留下年幼的爷爷在薛庄时说的七个字。八十多年过去,陈家没有饿死,陈家延续下来了。爷爷用一辈子,把这七个字接住了。
