Chapter 8 Chapter 3(1)

first quarter Meng Fuzhi's family finally moved to Longwei Village in the early summer of 1939.At that time, most of the science teachers were in the western suburbs, and most of the liberal arts teachers were in the eastern suburbs. Jiang Fang, Li Lian, Qian Mingjing and others had all moved out. Longwei Village has mountains and water.The mountain is not high, covered with all kinds of trees, and the name is also very nice, called Baotai Mountain.The water is not deep, there is a small river, clear to the bottom, called the Mang River.It is said that it was originally the Mang River, and the villagers changed it to Mang, which was divided from the Longjiang River not far away.This place seems to have something to do with the dragon.In the village and outside the village, on the mountain and beside the river, there are woody flowers all over the place. It is a wild shrub that can grow very tall and surrounds ordinary farmhouses.The flowers bloom like piles of snow, and have a faint fragrance of sweet-scented osmanthus.The Meng family's memory of Longwei Village is entangled with Mu Xianghua.There is only one street, and the shops on both sides are roughly similar to the remote places in Kunming.The houses are mostly in the streets and alleys, and the forms are similar.More formal, with a bit of a pattern, most of them have two floors, with a main room and east and west wing rooms. There is no wall in the middle of the downstairs of the main room.One side of the wing room is the kitchen downstairs, and the other side is the pigsty.The new residence of the Meng family is above the pigsty.

This wing room is much smaller than the attic of the big stage, the floor is very weak, and it creaks and creaks when you walk on it.Moreover, there is a large gap between the planks, and the activities of several pigs in the neighbors downstairs can be seen.Their unique smell and constant humming floated up through the cracks in the floor, filling the whole room.At first, Bichu was not used to it. She wiped and wiped the household items, washed and washed the clothes, but she couldn't get rid of the smell.When I also emit a pigsty smell, I don't feel it anymore, and everything seems to be natural.

What people can't get used to for a long time is the toilet.The toilet is in another yard where firewood is piled, and there is a big hole in the firewood pile, the size of which is like a bomb crater.A wooden plank is placed on the narrower part for people's convenience.Most of them are open, and the inside is colorful, and white maggots are wriggling, and the timid dare not look at them.The most frightening thing is that there are still pigs in the pit, and they grunt and come down to the wooden boards to get fresh food.He is also particularly bullying, when encountering a stranger, he seems to have a posture of biting him.Therefore, when people from the city came to use this pit, most of them held wooden sticks, for fear of being bitten.

The landlord's surname is Zhao, and he is a well-to-do family in the village. In addition to raising pigs, chickens, dogs, and cats are indispensable.There is also a horse, which has a dedicated stable in the firewood yard.The owner treats all living beings kindly and gives them a lot of freedom. The toilet pigs and kitchen pigs often exchange places.The dog I raise is the kind of stupid dog with a piece of white hair on each eye, which is called a four-eyed dog.It is very unresponsive, and it has its place in the home, and the straw by the gate is its nest.As for cats, they are even more respected.Cats in Kunming often get sick and die during the campaign against rats, and the price of cats is considerable.The landlord's family put a low table in the open door, which is the dining table for the whole family including the cat.When the meal was served, six people from three generations of the family sat on three sides, and a cat sat on the other side with a rice bowl.The cat also has a bowl when serving rice, and a spoonful when scooping up soup.The hostess poured soup into the cat bowl, and pressed the rice with a spoon a few times, fearing that there would be rice balls, which would make it difficult to swallow.Horses are large animals with their own independence.This horse is not big in stature and powerful enough to plow the fields and pull carts.Every evening after work, I stand in the stables and drink the porridge in the washbasin, with a calm and elegant attitude.Mei and Xiaowa often leaned over the railing to watch it eat.From time to time, Ma raised his head to look at the two children, his eyes were gentle and friendly, as if he wanted to say hello: Hello.

For the sake of convenience, teachers concentrate on class for a few more days.Fuzhi's classes are scheduled for the first three days of the week, and he spends the last four days writing books in the countryside. There is no need to go to the police, and he has more time.At that time, there was no means of transportation, and people came and went on foot.At first, I walked for more than two hours at a time, sometimes nearly three hours, and then I could walk in two hours.Bichute changed his usual blue cloth bag into a satchel, which can be carried slantly on his back, and he also holds an umbrella, much like the ancient exams.

Bichu described her week-long life as top-heavy.Every Monday, when Fu left home early in the morning and was alone, he felt that the snoring of the pig was also somewhat kind.When the children come back on weekends, everyone huddles in the wing room. There is a warm and peaceful atmosphere, and Lian E is also very happy.On Sunday afternoon, Mei and Xiaowa walked back to school. Fortunately, Longwei Village and Tongtou Village were relatively close.Er sometimes walked with them, and sometimes with Fudge on Mondays.Mei has been in poor health since she was discharged from the hospital, but she still insists on going to school.

This Monday morning, Bi Chu sent Fuzhi outside the village, and saw him striding along the Mang River in the morning breeze, his steps were brisk, but his back was a little bent. Running around." Bi Chu pondered.Fuzhi disappeared after turning the corner. She looked at the road beside the river and the trees beside the road for a while before returning home.On the first day, the children had all gone back to school, the Zhao family hadn't woken up yet, the yard was quiet, only Mrs. Zhao was combing her hair by the window upstairs. The Meng family and Qian Mingjing's family are separated by a street and share water from a well.The well was in the courtyard of the Qian family, and the Meng family hired people to carry water two loads a day.Every Monday, when there is too much washing and not enough water, Bi Chu often goes to the well to fetch a bucket of water and brings it home.Because the well is shared by nearby families, the gate of Qian's courtyard is not closed.Qian Mingjing was dissatisfied with this, but this small courtyard was a single family, with three small north rooms and no livestock.

When Bichu got home, instead of going upstairs, she took the bucket and went to the well.When I arrived at Qian's house and saw that the courtyard door was ajar, I pushed the door lightly and walked in without making a sound.There was a bucket by the well for fetching water with a long rope. She stood by the well, took a breath, lowered the bucket slowly, swung the long rope, and picked up half of the bucket of water. Suddenly there was a low-pitched laughter in the room.The public well is really inconvenient in the courtyard, Bi Chu thought, she felt dizzy when she lifted the water, she let go of her hand, and the bucket fell into the well.

"Hui Fong!" Bi Chu called out, wanting Qian Mingjing to help.But there was no answer, there was no more sound, and there seemed to be no one in the yard.Could it be that I heard something wrong. "Hui Fong!" Bi Chu yelled again, she hurriedly retreated as soon as she exited, she remembered that Hui Fong went to the city the day before yesterday, and Zheng Hui Fen came from Chongqing.Bichu also said why not come to the country to stay for a few days, presumably Hui Fong came back yesterday.Thinking of this, he didn't pay attention, turned and went home.When Zhao Er went out to the stables, he heard that the bucket had fallen into the well, and said, "It's common to lose the bucket when digging a well." After a while, he picked up a load of water and said that the bucket had been taken out.Bi Chu then sat on the small stool in the open room to wash clothes.

The landlord's family came to the open room one after another.Mrs. Zhao's second sister-in-law washed rice for cooking. At that time, the method of boiling and steaming was often used, which was called scooping rice.The boiled rice soup is delicious, but it is often fed to pigs or thrown away.The rice cooker specially used for steaming rice has a pointed lid, like a straw hat, and the little boy even asked to touch it.Mrs. Zhao's second sister-in-law was cooking rice while cutting peppers.The peppers were bright red, and the spiciness was as strong as the color. She stood by the chopping board without any response, while Bi Chu was in the corner, sneezing one after another, and burst into tears.

"I don't think your family is a person who can work. You have white hands and faces, and a skinny body. You can't stand it. You are from Shanghai. Does Shanghai have chili?" The villagers think that all foreigners are from Shanghai. people. "Just get used to it." Bichu went to stand under the eaves for a while, then sat down to do the laundry. Zhao Ersao put the cooked rice into the steamer, the aroma of the rice overflowed, and the smell of chili gradually faded.She squatted by the laundry tub and watched for a while, and said, "I think your family might as well find a helper, can you cooperate? Just take care of the meals, and the salary is up to your family." As Fuzhi once said, you have to find someone to help.But Bichu wanted to be self-reliant, and her monthly salary was beyond her means. How would she arrange for one more expense?But my body is really getting worse every day, so I can't get to the point where I run out of oil and the lamp is dry.Yin casually said: "If the place is close, how many days a week would you like to help?" Mrs. Zhao replied: "It's close, just on the street. To tell you the truth, this girl is my niece. My sister Passed away, her stepmother didn't allow her, she often lived in her aunt's house, and didn't want her aunt to pass away again. This girl is a bit unlucky. But it's okay for outsiders." "Where is the girl?" Bichu said sympathetically. "I went to drive the caravan. I have been back for more than a month." "Girls also drive caravans?" Woolen cloth." The four-eyed dog on the haystack by the door barked twice, turned around and lay down again.Zheng Huifeng stood in the courtyard gate, smiling. "I've come back from the city, is it early?" Hui Fong walked over briskly, holding a calico bag in his hand. "I met Mr. Meng. He said you should remember to take your medicine, but he forgot to say this. As soon as I enter the village, I will send a message to you first." "You come from the city?" "That's right. You haven't returned home yet. You do so much laundry! I'll help you." He sat down with a small stool. "No need, no need." Bi Chu spoke Yunnan dialect, and both of them laughed. "I've put soap on it, soak it for a while, and then scrub it. Go upstairs and sit." So I scooped up about a cup of water with a ladle to wash my hands. "You are so economical, but there is no shortage of water." "Troublesome." She was just about to say that the barrels fell into the well, but she shrank and said nothing. The two sat upstairs.Hui Fong took out a box of watercolor paints, a box of oil paints, and a row of paintbrushes from the cloth bag for Bichu to look at, and said, "Sister said, I just take care of Qian Mingjing, it's not like our Zheng family. There is no suitable thing." Do it, and you can’t put down your paintbrush at home. I’ll draw a few for you as wallpaper.” "Does my wall match?" Bichu smiled, "How about Huizhu?" The matter of Huizhu refers to the matter of Huizhu's divorce.Zheng Huizhu has been married for ten years and has been discussing divorce for nine and a half years.She is famous in the music world under the name of Mrs. Liu, but most people don't know where Mr. Liu is.Now it is more clear that he is guarding a lot of property in Shanghai and refuses to come out.People are divided into two places, and it is more difficult to go through the procedures. At that moment Hui Fang said: "Let's put her matter on hold, anyway, it's been so many years. I also have some troubles. The fate of the sisters is a bit similar. The three of you sisters are all married to good people, and our two sisters are going to divorce." Bichu was taken aback, and said, "Why?" "I've been thinking about this since the beginning of the year, and I just told my sister about it yesterday." Hui Fong didn't seem depressed when she spoke, but seemed to be elated. "If I paint seriously, I might live a better life." She saw pickled radishes in the bowl on the table, and picked them up to eat. Bichu took out a large mouth bottle from the small cabinet, and the radishes soaked in it were red, white and white, very bright. "I just learned from the landlord. The children ate a big bottle yesterday, and these." "It's really interesting to think about it. Pickled radishes are also delicious." Hui Fong chewed the radish and said, "Divorce? It's not a showdown right now, we have to look again. He has been out there for a year. I heard that he is a jade dealer in the west of Yunnan. He is a big family in the local area. What is his name?" Yes, it’s very good with the big chieftain nearby. I often give money to Qian Mingjing, so I don’t dare to use those things, I don’t know where they come from.” Thinking of the laughter in the morning, Bi Chu didn’t know whether to say it or not.If it is about the friendship with Hui Zhi, she should be told, but she is not used to exposing others' privacy, and they are not close friends, it is best for Hui Yuan to say these things.While thinking about it, he took pills and sat at the table combing his hair. Bi Chu unbuttoned her hair, combed it once and for all, her thin face was reflected in the small mirror, and her thick hair set off her, making her look extraordinarily haggard. "Your hair is still so good." Hui Fong said. "It's fallen out a lot. It's so long, it's troublesome to comb and wash." Bi Chu said casually, and suddenly froze for a moment, then asked in the mirror, "Otherwise, would you cut it off?" Hui Fang was also taken aback, Said: "What a pity, but it's really troublesome." "Really, you won't have to buy hair oil if you cut it off." Bi Chu looked at the mirror for a moment, and made up her mind, "You can cut it for me!" Pass a pair of large scissors to Hui Fong.Hui Fong didn't dare to take it at first, and said, "You won't discuss it with Mr. Meng?" "We said before, and he also said that it's better to cut it, so as not to make combing too tiring. Wait a minute, I'll comb my hair first." As he spoke, he put down the scissors, picked up the comb again, and combed it. This hair was combed by my mother.It was braided back then.At that time, my mother had a set of combs, nine in size, with mother-of-pearl inlaid on the back, which was extremely exquisite.As long as they comb their hair in their mother's room, Jiang and Bi will use each comb in turn.That set of wooden combs has been sleeping in the coffin with my mother for thirty years.Bi Chu let out a long sigh, put down the comb, and signaled to do it.Hui Fang divided the black waterfall-like hair into four locks, grabbed one lock, picked up the scissors, gestured, and said, "I want to cut it?" "Cut it, don't hesitate." Bi Chu closed the lock with a smile. Eye. After a while, the four locks of hair were limp on the ground.Hui Fong carefully trimmed the short hair just past the ears, and Bichu looked much younger in the mirror. "Looks good, looks good!" Hui Fong said happily. "It looks like someone from the New School." Bi Chu sighed softly, got up and tidied up the cut hair, braided it into four long braids, wrapped it with a piece of old cloth, and stuffed it at the bottom of the box. Smile. "Let's walk towards the Mang River." Hui Fong said.Knowing that she didn't want to go home, Bi Chu came downstairs together.Seeing that basin of clothes, I suddenly thought, the water in the Mang River is so clear, why not wash clothes in the river.Hui Fong heard that he seemed to have made a great invention, and hugged Bichu's shoulder happily.Zhao Ersao was about to go down to the ground, when she heard the discussion, she was a little surprised, and said, "You guys go down the river too! Don't fall!" Taking out a mallet for pounding clothes, Bichu thanked her very much, and found a basket with Hui Fang, He lifted his clothes and headed for the Mang River. The Mang River is about three to four meters wide, with a high water surface and not deep near the shore. The water is clear to the bottom, and there are few swimming fish.Willows were planted all over the embankment, and some big rocks went deep into the water. Bi and Zhuang found a stone that was easy to get up and down, and squatted to wash their clothes.Seeing the clothes getting cleaner and cleaner after being fiddled with in the water, I also feel refreshed.Bi Chu wrung out a few pieces, beat them again, and said with emotion: "Nature is really amazing, and even arranged a small river for us to wash clothes." Hui Fong responded: "Also arrange for Japanese to drive us here do the laundry!" After a while, both of their feet were wet.Huifeng wanted to take off his shoes, but Bichu refused, so they went their separate ways.Hui Fong stood barefoot on the stone, and stretched out one foot into the water alternately. The hem of the blue cheongsam was wet and fell heavily.Bi Chu laughed and said, "What a picture of washing clothes." Hui Fong continued, "By the way, I heard Mr. Xiao say in the city yesterday that your relative Wei Fen married the granddaughter of the Yue family in Peiping, and she actually left Peiping and went to I have gone to the northwest area." Hui Fong said this, substituting geographical concepts for political overtones. Bi Chu said in shock: "We haven't heard from Wei Feng and Xueyan for a long time, and we haven't heard from Mr. Xiao." "You can imagine that what Mr. Xiao said actually included my sister's words. It was my sister who first talked about it. After holding a concert in Guiyang, I saw Wei Feng and his wife at a friend's house." Bi Chu put down the mallet and looked at Hui Fong's face, "Not only did I get the news, but I also saw it with my own eyes?" "That's right! They are at a friend's house in Huaxi, they also help cook, wash clothes, and grow vegetables." There is no one who can't adapt to the environment. But Xueyan is very pampered, so it's hard for her." "Sister also said the same. I thought Wei Feng was a relative on Mr. Meng's side, so I didn't take it as a big deal to tell you." "His relatives It’s mine too, it’s ours. It’s big news.” They wrung out the clean clothes and put them in baskets.Then another big thing happened.On the opposite embankment, a man and a woman walked past, one bowed his head and the other raised his head, talking, in a very intimate manner.This gentleman is none other than Qian Mingjing. I haven't finished my morning conversation, Bichu thought.I hope they don't look this way, and go over to avoid embarrassment.But the stone shook violently, Hui Fong stood up, supported Bichu with one hand, and fixed his eyes on the opposite bank.When those two people approached, she suddenly called out: "Qian Mingjing! Good morning!" Qian Mingjing seemed to be fixed in place, motionless.The woman hurriedly walked away a few steps, and said with a smile: "I'm here to look for Mrs. Qian. I got some jade bracelets from there. They are very good and the price is really cheap. I want to ask Mrs. Qian for help. Does anyone want any?" .” "I found the wrong person." Hui Fong also said with a smile, "Whoever heard that people in the school still buy jewelry, it's better to save the country's wealth." As if to make a footnote to the national disaster, more than 20 planes appeared in the sky in the distance, and then there was a booming sound.It was flying around Kunming, and several people were holding their breath, not knowing how many bombs they would drop.After a while, the plane flew away, but the blue sky was still so clear.The ups and downs of life are still going on. Bi Chu said: "Mr. Qian, please go ahead, I will greet Hui Fong." Qian Mingjing said calmly: "I'll see off the guests and come back. She's going to Luoyanpo." While gesturing to the woman, the two walked towards Longjiang.Luoyanpo is a small village at the fork of the river.The woman was carrying a small box, which she thought was jade. Hui Fong picked up a stone and threw it at it, and the stone barely fell into the grass on the bank.She sneered and said, "It's really eye-opening today." Bi Chu advised her to put on her shoes so as not to catch a cold, saying that the clothes had been washed and it was time to go home. "I don't have a home anymore." Hui Fang covered his face with his hands, paused for a while, then stood up to tidy up.They went back to dry their clothes, Bichu asked Hui Fong to sit upstairs, arranged lunch in the open room, cooked a pot of leftover food from yesterday, brought them upstairs, saw Hui Fong sitting on the edge of the bed and weeping. Bichu felt sad, thinking that the Zheng sisters were in Shanghai back then, and they had the reputation of being the eldest and the younger, and they didn't want their marriage to be so unfortunate.Huizhu is fine, and has another bosom friend.After Hui Fong got married, even painting was neglected, it was not worth it.But things in the world can't be predicted in advance.She set the bowls and chopsticks, and suddenly felt dizzy again, and fell down on the chair, coughing uncontrollably.Seeing this, Hui Fong hurriedly stopped her tears and came over to greet her. The two persuaded each other to eat a few mouthfuls of rice, and they immediately felt much better. It turns out that rice has such a great effect. "Sure enough, people rely on material things to live." Hui Fong half-talked to himself, "This hot rice is delicious." "The beef that was roasted yesterday left the bottom of a bowl, and it was poured into the pot." The beef in Kunming is very good. There are beef restaurants on the street that specialize in cooked beef. The most common way is to stew it in a big pot, which is delicious. It's so bad, the proprietress will take the initiative to add soup after a bowl.Bichu always cooks a pot of meat every week for the children to eat as much as possible, while she always waits for the bottom of the bowl. "What's wrong with you? You need to understand the disease first. What you're taking is just a general nourishing medicine. Does it work?" "One problem is bleeding. It's been there since I was in Guihui. It got better later, and then it broke down again. It's always been unclean intermittently for a month, so I feel dizzy and weak. Another new problem is coughing. I don't know the reason yet." Hui Fong said, "Mei was hospitalized this time, and you didn't check it out." "It seemed to be okay at that time——I really can't care about so much." Bi Chu paused, and then said, "Mrs. Li said that there are her members in the hospital, and she also said that she would refer her to see a doctor." "Mrs. Li? I can't believe it." Hui Fong said, suddenly remembering meeting Jin Shizhen at the market last week, and felt a little nervous.How do you not believe it?Mrs. Li was right. That day, Hui Fong and Qian Mingjing went to the market to buy food for a week, and they were negotiating prices at a stall. Jin Shizhen pulled Hui Fong away from behind, and whispered that Mr. Qian's head was pink and emerald green, and there must be a demon haunting him.Hui Fangyin said, did you meet the white lady?Shizhen solemnly said that the white lady is not something that anyone can meet!He himself has too many emotions and desires, and it may be difficult to maintain his family. Recently, it has become clear.Ordinary people do fortune-telling and divination, but they are reluctant to speak out, but Shizhen speaks up when she sees it, which makes many people hate it.Hui Yi suspected that she had heard some rumors and used her imagination to make them up.The feud between the Qian family and his wife is no longer news. Hui Fang didn't want to say this prophecy at all, but because Mrs. Li was mentioned, she told Bichu.Bi Chu said: "If you believe in something, you will have it. If you don't believe it, you will have nothing. Your matter cannot be settled in a short while. The most important thing is to keep your health. You are taking a nap now!" Hui Fong was lying on the bed outside Meng's house, wanting to put aside his thoughts and go to sleep, because he got up too early today.But the more things I don't want to think about, the more things come before my eyes.She remembered the scene when she saw Mingjing for the first time.That year she had just graduated from St. John's University, and then entered the Shanghai Academy of Art to study painting. When she saw him at an art exhibition, she was indeed a good character.He has taught at Minglun University and published many articles on oracle bone inscriptions research. This pedantic achievement is not in line with his image of a handsome young man, and he is also a well-known poet.They looked at the paintings together and saw two small gouache paintings, one of which was hazy with rain, and the other with strong wind. He stood in front of the paintings for a long time, saying that they were full of poetry, and the paintings were not signed, and they were her works.Later she asked him many times whether he did the investigation first, but he always denied it. Later they lived in the West and Central Courtyard of the Minglun University campus, which was a small Chinese-style courtyard.The oracle bone inscriptions written by him and her paintings hang in the room.She painted many scenes of the western suburbs of Beiping.The ruins of the Old Summer Palace are like a big ship at anchor in the evening language.The red leaves of Xiangshan Mountain are set off by the green pine forest.She has studied painting for many years, and it is the first time that she finds that red and green match so well together, so beautiful!There is also the flowing water of Cherry Ditch. Huizhu should sing a song to the sound of the water.She was intoxicated with her little family and all kinds of beautiful things, until she came across a letter that woke her up like a dream. It was a very common plot, as often happens in popular novels.Qian Mingjing has an unusual relationship with a female student.He confessed and said a few loads of words of contrition.She believed in him, didn't make it public, and even covered him up in the department.From the outside, the two of them are still a good marriage, but inside there are many stumbling blocks.About half a year before the July 7th Incident, he had close contacts with the wife of a Beijing official.Because Beijing officials are often in Nanjing, he often accompanies this lady to comfort her loneliness.Later, everyone was busy going south, and the matter was left alone.Hui Fong once said that there are only three things to do, and Ming Jing said that there will be no next time.A peaceful day passed in Guihui.Hui Fong cheered up to do the housework.When Ming Jing was in exile, he got a hobby of studying cultural relics.Guihui's hardwood inlaid mother-of-pearl furniture sold for a good price in Kunming, subsidizing the household for a while.His interest soon turned to jade and precious stones, and he met some experts and the female jade dealer. Later, he learned that it was a chieftain in a small area. Qian Mingjing has many talents and can be regarded as very talented.As a scholar and a poet, he has achieved a lot. The most surprising thing is that he has a businessman spirit, and he is extremely quick in his inner calculations about buying and selling.After they moved to the countryside, Mingjing also taught in the city for three days, and when they returned home, they often brought some jade articles to rub and appreciate them in the morning and evening.Bringing back a small incense burner at a time, only the size of an ink bottle, the whole body is clear and white, and the carving is meticulous. He smiled and said to Hui Fong, this is suet jade, and I will offer it to Guanyin Bodhisattva.Hui Fong joked, I never worshiped Buddhas and Bodhisattvas, so there must be people who worshiped, which made you worry.I don't want Mingjing to sulk and put away the incense burner.Gradually, Hui Fong knew that there was a woman behind the many jade objects.This woman believes in Guanyin Bodhisattva. Hui Fong once humbly compared himself with those few, but he couldn't see that he was inferior to others.It can only show that Jing has the nature of looking for an affair, and also has the conditions to get an affair, let him go, this time it's over. There is a knock on the door. Bi Chu opened the door and saw Qian Mingjing standing at the door.Mingjing smiled naturally: "How is Mrs. Meng these days? Huifeng is here to disturb you." Bichu finished the procedures of "please come in, please sit down, please use the tea table", and pushed the quilt with concern Hui Fong, who covered his head, went downstairs by himself. Ming Jing bent down and said softly: "Since you saw it today, I can't hide it from you anymore. No matter what we have to say, let's go home and say that such an important matter cannot be discussed in Meng's house." The pig downstairs walked away with a grunt. Walking around, it means that this is indeed not a place for negotiation. Hui Fong pushed her to sit up, and said coldly, "What's there to talk about! It's very simple, just get a divorce." "Divorce is complicated." Ming Jing put on a smile, took the shoes in his hand, and wanted to put them on for Hui Fang. "If you only quarrel, it's easy. If you quarrel, you have to go back to quarrel. Go back, please go back, my wife." He bowed and came up to put on his shoes.Hui Fong wanted to push him away, but he was afraid of making a noise, so it's not good to fight here.And back to theory!Those three houses have half of my own.Because he took the shoes and put them on, he made the bed.Ming Jing hurriedly took the calico bag, and the two came downstairs.If you don't know the details, you still look like a couple from the outside. Bi Chu was mending clothes in the open room, and sent the two of them out the door, secretly thinking that Hui Fong might have to compromise again.Qian Mingjing was not a bad person, but his flamboyant temper was unbearable. Qian and Zheng returned to the hut by the well, and as soon as they entered, Qian Mingjing said, "In such a cruel war, with such a family, are you willing to tear it apart?" Hui Fong didn't answer, and sat on the rocking chair. It was foreign furniture bought by Mingjing from a consignment store. He looked at the homemade curtains that reached to the floor in the bedroom, and the four walls of books in the study room. There was a floor dedicated to jade articles. He sighed and said, "Divorce is not easy. Now we have to arrange our life first. You go to the study, I live in the bedroom, and I take care of my own food. We don't interfere with the river water, and each of us lives at our own expense." When Mingjing heard about it, he suddenly "thumped." "Kneeling on the ground with a sound, Hui Fong was startled.Ming Jing knelt down and said: "I just ask you one thing. Mr. Jiang asked me to sort out the works of the past few years. Next month, the department will discuss my promotion to a professor. I just ask you to bear with me. Everything will wait for my promotion." Let the professor talk." Hui Fong said: "Which professor are you promoted to? Is it furniture from the Ming Dynasty or porcelain from the Song Dynasty? Is it Yunnan jade or Burmese gems?" Ming Jing got up and took a stack of manuscripts, which were neatly bound even though they were earthen papers, and several magazines, which published his research articles on oracle bone inscriptions.Said: "Those women only see that I am good-looking, they don't understand, don't you understand too!" "Don't you understand too!" These words hit Hui Fong's heart heavily, she covered her face with her hands, tears trickled down her arms. At dusk, Li Lian came back from the city with news: the Minglun office was bombed, destroying a courtyard, and an old school worker was killed on the spot.Fortunately, the main house was not damaged.Especially explain to Mrs. Meng: "Mr. Meng is very good. Today's class is in the graveyard, and I am writing a book on the top of the big stage in the afternoon." A few days later, Mei and Xiaowa went on summer vacation, and Zhi'e said that they were looking for something to do, it was convenient in the city, and they only came back every few days.Mei also had a low-grade fever, and the doctor ordered to inject a liver essence to replenish blood every other day, and to take anti-tuberculosis drugs.There is a doctor in Luoyanpo, which has become a simple clinic nearby and can give injections.It was a seven or eight li round trip to Luoyanpo, Bichu took Mei there a few times, Mei said she knew the way and could go by herself.Bichu was worried, so she was accompanied by Zheng Huifeng two more times.On this day, Huifeng went to the city on business, so he decided to go get an injection by himself. Mei stood in the open room with a straw hat, and listened to Bichu's instructions: "Be careful when walking, don't look around, if you encounter an enemy plane and fly too close, no matter what, hide in the grass for a while. The person who gave the injection is the doctor's wife." , also called doctor, remember?" Mei agreed to put on the straw hat.The hat was old, but it looked much better with a floral cloth strap hanging down, which Mei sewed on by herself.Xiaowa sent her to the door and pulled the belt.Xiaowa was going to follow, but the road was too far, so he understood the truth, so he stayed at home to watch. Mei hit the road by herself.She stopped and walked along the embankment of the Mang River, and met a few load-bearers and a few dogs running past with their tongues sticking out.After walking for about half an hour, we arrived at Luoyanpo.The village is on a hillside, sandwiched between the Longjiang River and the Mang River.There is a deep pool at the foot of the slope, and the upstream of the pool is very fast. When it comes here, it suddenly falls, and a few big rocks stretch out into the water, and the water splashes, and the snow is white.Mei suddenly understood why this place was called Luoyanpo.Villagers often wash their clothes with rush water.The water in the lower reaches of the pool is much slower. It is said that this pool is connected to the Longjiang River, and things that fall here can be found in the Longjiang River later.The flying water falls into the pool and turns into ripples, which slowly flow downstream. "Girl doll, which one are you looking for?" A woman carrying a baby on her back asked. "Go to the doctor." Mei replied. "A foreigner has come to the doctor's house." The sister-in-law felt that the foreigner came from a farther place than the other provinces, so more attention should be paid. "Two people, the old man is in his fifties or sixties, and his daughter, who is said to be a wife. You are from Longwei Village, where many people from other provinces live."
