Chapter 11 second quarter

How could it have been imagined that father and daughter turned against each other, and they could ignore the kinship and make such a decisive decision-this dispute made Zhang Ailing live in confinement for more than half a year. Zhang Ailing said in "Whispers" before that she was beaten and she was going to report to the police. The writing was not clear, and it seemed that she only went to the police for her own abuse.However, later in the book, she expressed her thoughts clearly - it was not considered a crime for a father to beat a child at the time, even if he reported the crime, he would still be sent back to his parents for discipline.Her plan was to expose them for opium, a crime punishable by jail time.And her father clearly guessed what his daughter was thinking, so he wanted to lock her up for fear that she would escape and report to the police.

The room was on the first floor. It was originally dark, and trees were planted outside the window. They grew up year by year, covering the sunlight. What leaked through the gaps between the leaves was not light, but shadows. It's all a nightmare dance of ghosts.There are wooden railings on the balcony, outside the railings there are white lines of planes passing by in the light blue sky in autumn and winter, gray stone antlers are raised on the gatehouse opposite, and there are two rows of small stone Buddhas underneath... During sleepless nights, when she looked around, she felt that there were silent murderous intentions lurking everywhere in the dark room, ready to devour her at any time.

It was the first time that I was so close to death, as if a small beast was slowly approaching.She could even feel the greedy heat of the little beast's tongue outstretched. "My father threatened to shoot me to death with a pistol. I was temporarily imprisoned in an empty house. The house I was born in suddenly became strange, like a blue-white wall in the shadows under the moonlight, one-sided Yes, crazy. Beverley Nichols has a poem about the half-light of a madman: 'In thy heart sleeps the moonlight. 'When I read it, I thought of the blue moonlight on the floor of our house, the quiet murderous intent.

I also know that my father will never kill me, but I will be locked up for a few years, and it will not be me when I am released.Within weeks I had aged many years.I squeezed the wooden railing on the balcony tightly with my hands, as if water could be squeezed from the wood.Overhead was the magnificent blue sky, and the sky at that time had sound, because the sky was full of planes.I wish a bomb had dropped on our house, and I would die with them. "(Zhang Ailing's "Whispers") In a dark room and a gloomy mood, Eileen Chang fell ill with dysentery.Vomiting and diarrhea, feeling weak all over, getting weaker every day, like a paper lantern that will go out when the wind blows.

He Gan was very anxious, but he couldn't think of a way.As early as the day Miss was beaten, she had secretly called her uncle for help.Although Zhang Tingzhong is divorced, his relationship with his brother-in-law has always been good.The two people used to meet to visit the hall, and made fun of each other for calling Tiaozi, one older than the other, and they were "fried sparrows" and "salted frogs".Zhang Ting raised a small mansion again, and Huang Dingzhu hid it from his sister for him; but Huang Yifan forced her husband to quit drugs, and Dingzhu also brought bodyguards to escort her brother-in-law to the hospital.This time when He Gan asked him for help, he also felt that it was his duty to ask Zhang Maoyuan to come to plead for mercy the next morning, and once again brought up the matter of letting Ai Ling go abroad to study.

However, Zhang Tingzhong couldn't listen to anything with a stern face, and Sun Yongfan sneered at him, saying that Zhang Maoyuan "is here to catch opium?" Throwing the gun over, Zhang Maoyuan's glasses were also broken, and the skin on his face was scratched and bled a lot, but Huang Dingzhu pulled it away forcefully.Before leaving, Zhang Maoyuan swore: "I will never step into your door again!" Later, I heard that I went to the hospital for six stitches and did not call the police. After all, I was still afraid of shame.However, she really didn't go to Zhang's house anymore.

Zhang Tingzhong's father, daughter, brother and sister turned against each other, and Sun Yongfan was proud of him, so why worry about it?Seeing that the young lady's life was hanging by a thread, and there was no one to turn to for help, she had no choice but to brave up, avoid Sun Yongfan's eyes and ears, tried to be scolded and cried to the master several times secretly, and persuaded: "Miss, after all It's the master's own daughter. She has been raised so big and she is at a good age. Is it possible to see her die like this? The relatives don't sound like it. They think the master is cruel and killed his own daughter. If someone asks her another day What disease did Miss Qi get and how did she die, what can everyone say?"

After hearing this, Zhang Tingzhong felt worried, but he didn't want to rush to the doctor for treatment. He just said vaguely: "You go down first, I will figure out a way for myself." A day later, the warden came to inspect the prison.Zhang Ailing was lying on the bed with only half her life left, her sallow face didn't even have the strength to speak, but she tried her best to open her eyes wide and looked at her father without blinking. It has been shining into the depths of his soul. Zhang Tingzhong looked at it, and couldn't help but couldn't bear it—his heart had been burned out bit by bit by the opium lamp, and it was burnt to ashes, which would disperse when the wind blows.But Hui Diaozi was still dangling in the air, making him weakly continue this innocent life.Thinking of the history of the two father and daughter discussing knowledge and drafting the chapter title of "Modern Dream of Red Mansions" for his daughter, he also felt infinitely moved. As for getting to such a point, they actually staged a scene of "brothers and feet procrastinating, twitching their lips and tongue, unworthy of all kinds of big promises and flogging"?He couldn't help sighing: "If you could be more obedient, you wouldn't be like this..." I personally gave my daughter an anti-inflammatory antibiotic injection.

After several injections like this, Aileen's condition seemed to be under control, but it was still up and down. Seeing that she could get up and walk around, she woke up one morning and suddenly vomited up and down again, trying to spit out her heart, liver and lungs. like. Her whole body was hot, her face was red, and she felt that she was already a dead person, in hell, and there were tongues of fire swallowing her all around.But she is not willing to die like this, she still has many wishes unfulfilled, the King of Hades should also ask the dying person what is his last wish before collecting his soul?Holding He Gan's arm, she still inquired about the escape route.

He Gan was crying while cleaning up for her, but he still persuaded: "You must never walk out of this door! Once you go out, you can't come back." Because she cherished it too much, she couldn't help being timid for her, and for her. Fear, become indifferent.Besides, Ai Ling is her career. She spent most of her life in the Zhang family. She has served three generations of the Zhang family. Now she can hardly serve anymore, but she is still conscientious and dedicated. I endured it peacefully until the day the young lady got married, so that she could follow her and take care of her for the elderly.If there is no Miss, naturally there will be nothing.For this meager wish, she has been persuading her to be patient, to stay no matter how difficult it is.But now seeing that she was at the end of her rope, she knew she couldn't keep her any longer, so she stammered out: "My wife (referring to Huang Yifan) sent a message, I want you to think carefully about it, and your father is naturally rich. , but you don’t have any money, you have to endure this hardship and you won’t regret it.” He gritted his teeth and revealed the time when the two guards changed shifts.

This illness made Zhang Ailing make up her mind early - she was born in this room, and she must not die in this room. She decided to flee and thought of many plans, like the Three Musketeers, the Count of Monte Cristo, or something simpler, like slipping out of the window with a rope in "Nine-Tailed Turtle". Of course, the best way is to have a prince who can ride White horse, meet under the princess' attic.But she is not Snow White after all. Although she met the evil stepmother in the fairy tale, she failed to get the prince charming who drew the sword to save her.She doesn't even have seven dwarfs. No one saved her except herself. That year, Aileen was eighteen years old. "In the midwinter night, I leaned on the window and used a telescope to see clearly that there was no one on the black road. I touched the iron door step by step against the wall, pulled out the latch, opened the door, put the telescope on the milk crate, and stepped out.— — Really standing on the sidewalk! There is no wind, just the lonely cold around the lunar calendar year, and only a piece of cold ashes can be seen under the street lamps, but what a lovely world! I hurried along the street, and every footstep A loud kiss all over the floor. And I'm negotiating a price with a rickshaw guy not far from home - I'm really glad I haven't forgotten how to bargain. It's crazy! Anytime I was arrested again. Things have changed, and I just felt the ridiculousness of the thrill."
