Chapter 21 Chapter Seven (2)

The inflammation was under control, but the so-called typhus did not go away.Fu Zhi always had a low-grade fever and hadn't gone to class for two weeks. Everyone was very anxious.I went to Zedian Hospital again and was given a very expensive medicine and injection.At this time, the situation of the Meng family was no better than when Mei was hospitalized.Bi Chu managed to piece together, but it was still not enough for the medicine, and finally borrowed money from the school before taking the medicine and going home.After taking it, the symptoms were relieved, and the symptoms were recuperated at home.Over the years, Bichu has developed the ability to work hard at housekeeping, and now she can't arrange it.Jewelry is almost sold out.Only the pair of emerald earrings and brooch are valuable, which are Bichu's most beloved things, and now it's a big deal, but I don't know how to sell them for a good price.

On this day, Wei Feng and Xueyan came to visit, Xueyan was already in a very uncomfortable condition, and she helped clean up inside and out.Bi Chu asked them to go back earlier, Xueyan said: "There are still important things." She took out a brocade box, handed it to Bi Chu, and said, "I entrusted someone to sell it, and it would be good to make up for the household." Bi Chu opened it, Seeing that it was a white gold bracelet inlaid with diamonds, the two big diamonds were the size of red beans, surrounded by many broken diamonds, sparkling like crystals, and the workmanship was extremely delicate, she asked in surprise, "What is this for?" Xueyan and Wei Fen stood Together, they said earnestly: "Uncle Wu's illness needs to be recuperated, this is a little bit of filial piety from us." Bi Chu said: "The hero sees the same thing, and I was thinking of selling something, so let's sell that pair of emeralds." Feng said: "I heard that the jadeite was handed down by the grandpa, how can it be sold easily. We should sell this bracelet, this is Xueyan's intention, and it is our filial piety." Bi Chu refused, Xueyan was so anxious that she burst into tears After thinking about it, Bi Chu couldn't bear to be kind, so she said, "Let's put it here first." The two bowed happily, and bathed Shide again, which made it scream strangely.Then don't go.

On Sunday, Mei and He are both at home.Mei said that Huishu said that the auntie was very concerned about Daddy's illness and asked her to visit him.Huishu has entered the education department of a local university.Bi Chu sighed: "My aunt recites scriptures all day long, she seems to be quitting the world of mortals, but Hui Shu is sensible, and knows how to work hard when she studies." Yin and Mei discussed selling jewelry, can they ask He Zhu.Mei thought for a while, and said, "Hezhu loves making things happen, but she can't trust her." Bichu said, "What should I do?" Then she showed Mei the diamond bracelet, "Remember, this is Xueyan twenty-one On her birthday, I saw her wear it as a gift from her parents." Mei said, "This is Sister Ling's heart, let's put it away for now." Bi Chu said, "I think so too."

While talking, Qian Mingjing came.He came from the city to see Mr. Meng, sat in front of the sick bed for a while, and then sat down and talked with Bi Chu outside.Mei poured tea, and Mingjing praised: "In a blink of an eye, Mei is already a good helper." Bi Chu said: "No, I discuss everything with her now." Mingjing took out a bulging envelope and said "It goes without saying that I respect Mr. Meng and Mrs. Hui, this money is my wish and that of Hui Fang." Seeing Bi Chu pondering, he said, "We will just pay it back to us later." At this moment, Mei suddenly said: " Isn't mother going to sell that jadeite? Can Mr. Qian help?" Seeing Mei's reckless remarks, Bi Chu gave her a look, but after hearing the Mingjing, she immediately said: "I've seen that jadeite pair of Master Madam several times, it's really a good thing It's a pity to sell it." Bi Chu smiled and said, "It's just a thing outside of the body. As long as it has a good place to go." Ming Jing said: "No, things must have a bosom friend, or I will take it to ask the price?" Bi Chu sighed Said: "In these years, you and Hui Fong have not helped my family very much! I don't know when we will stop causing trouble." Ming Jing pondered for a while, and said: "It's best not to tell Hui Fong about this. She won't I like these things." Bi Chu nodded, and told Mei: "No need to say more." Then she took out a small mother-of-pearl box, spread tissue paper on the table, and put out the emerald brooch and earrings.There happened to be a ray of sunlight, shining on the pin like a pool of clear water, the earrings were shining brightly even when they were not in the sunlight, green and moist.Mingjing was overjoyed, and even said that he didn't expect it, "This jewelry is so beautiful! Please don't worry, teacher's wife, there must be good news." Bichu said: "I will accept your money first, and then deduct it later." Mingjing said: "Money, Mrs. only needs to use it. Life can't be more simple. The body is the most important thing. This thing is extremely pure and rare. Gold has a price and jade is priceless. I don't understand it, so I just say it." Mei said: "Someone understands." Bi Chu glared at her again, Ming Jing said: "Tongyan Wuji." Asking if it is possible to take it away now, Bi Chu said: "Of course I have to show it to others." While looking at the pair of jewelry, the eyes in his eyes With tears in his eyes, he picked up the pin and stroked it, took it into the back room, and discussed it softly with Fuzhi, and Fuzhi said: "You are the one who decides everything." Mingjing said loudly in the outside room: "Look at it first, maybe you can take it back! "Bi Chu came out and said: "It must be sold." Then he put the jewelry into a mother-of-pearl box and handed it to Mingjing.Ming Jing took it and said, "It's not too late, you can rush into the city." Mei Zao ordered a bowl of noodles, and Ming Jing smiled, "I'm hungry." He ate in a hurry and left.

The brooch was an ancestral item of the Meng family, the earrings were matched in Beiping later, and the brooch was re-inserted.Bi Chu seldom wears a hairpin ring, but she likes this pair of accessories very much. She knows that she will not give it up to others unless it is absolutely necessary. It's just that the situation is dangerous and she doesn't know what to do in the future.If you are not in good health, you must have money to take care of yourself.He got up slowly, went to sit outside, and deliberately said: "According to research, hairpins, bracelets and chains are all slaves' shackles, now you are free." I have been with us for decades, and now I am reluctant to leave." She thought about Mei's words "someone understands", Qian Mingjing probably wanted to find a female chieftain, why didn't she think of this, she felt very uneasy .Seeing that she was thinking, Fu Zhi comforted her: "It's also right to destroy the house and relieve the difficulties. We haven't done it yet, and now we don't need to call the police. When I recover, we will move back to the city."

When it comes to going back to the city, Bichu is a little relieved. The collapsed house in the wintersweet forest is being rebuilt. The owner of the house once invited Mr. Meng's family to go back to live in it at a banquet.It's just that construction stops, there are not many houses, and the process is slow. In the evening, when the Meng family was about to start dinner, Mei was frying mustard greens in the kitchen, and Zizi skillfully helped to wipe the table and set the bowls, when suddenly there were heavy footsteps in the yard.Qinghuan was collecting clothes in the yard, and asked: "Who are you looking for?" Someone said: "Mr. Meng Yue is at home?" The man said: "I have something to do, please go to Mr. Meng." Bi Chu said: "He is sick, which part are you from? What is it?" The man hesitated, and vaguely said the name of a department, About to enter the door.Bi Chu wanted to ask again.Hearing this, Fuzhi came out and asked, "What department are you?" The visitor said, "Mr. Meng has already come out, please come with us." "I don't dare." The two of them said, holding Fu Zhi and walking out of the gate, Bi Chu suddenly felt dizzy, almost fell, barely leaning against the wall, hurriedly stepped forward to hold him, Mei chased out the gate, saw A jeep was parked at the door, and Dad was hijacked into the car.She pounced on the car door with one hand, and shouted: "Leave your address." The two ignored them, and the car drove away, and Mei ran a few steps after her, not to worry that she might get hurt, and shouted: "Go back!" Mei saw the car crooked, going down the hill along the stone road.At that time, she didn't care to cry, and ran home to discuss countermeasures with Bichu.At that time, most of the school colleagues had moved to the city, only Li Lian was still there, so they ordered Qinghuan to notify.All of a sudden Li Lian came running and said out of breath: "I saw it and reported it to the school immediately. I'll go, I can go. Quick." Mei said: "I'll go with Mr. Li." Qinghuan suddenly Said: "I know how to ride a horse, let me go. I will ask Zhao Er to borrow a horse." Bi Chu was afraid that she would not be safe alone.Qinghuan said: "I can walk this road with my eyes closed, don't worry." At that time, there was no other way but to let Qinghuan go.Bichu immediately wrote a text message and handed it to Qinghuan.Qinghuan hid the letter and ran down the mountain.Unexpectedly, Zhao Er and his horse were not at home.Zhao's second daughter-in-law also helped to borrow from another family.One family's horse was sick, and another family's horse was about to give birth to a pony.Qinghuan was so anxious that she burst into tears and said, "I can't even do this." She had to go back to the mountain.Several people discussed, and Li Lian went on foot.Mei also wanted to go, and Bichu sighed, "It would be nice if you were a boy." Hezi said loudly, "I'm a boy, I'll go!" Bichu said, "You're too young." Mei go together.

It had been night for a long time, and there was no moonlight. The two of them walked and ran a few steps, wishing they could rush to school immediately.Approaching the turn of the embankment, I vaguely saw a figure, moving closer and closer, both of them were a little nervous, and suddenly they yelled: "Daddy is back!" As expected, it was Fuzhi walking slowly. "What's going on?" Li Lian asked hurriedly.Fu Zhi's heart beat short of breath, he waved his hands and said, "We'll talk when we get home." Mei said, "Go slowly, Daddy, I'll go back and tell Mother." Then she turned and ran up the mountain.Here Li Lian picked up a branch and asked Fuzhi to hold it up. After walking about ten steps, he rested for a while, finally reached the foot of the mountain, and Bichu had already led Mei and Hehe to meet him.After returning home, everyone analyzed that maybe the wrong person was arrested, or maybe they gave a warning first.Bi Chu said: "No matter what, the most important thing is to rest as soon as possible, and sleep first."

Fuzhi thought a lot that night, and when he was taken away, his mind was blank.At that time, various thoughts were very active, and there were many people who criticized the government. He couldn't be more gentle, so how could he be arrested?Could it be kidnapping?But they are not qualified to be "tickets" yet, and it seems that these two people are not bandits.At that time, the sky was not yet dark, and the light of the Mang River was faintly visible. The car walked along the river for a while, and it seemed to be heading for the city. After turning a few turns, I couldn't figure out the direction.The sky was getting dark and heavy, and it was so heavy that people couldn't breathe, and they needed to gasp for breath from time to time.He tried his best to adjust his breathing, trying to cope with this situation no matter what, not to faint.After walking for a while, suddenly there was a bright light ahead, a car came, and both cars stopped. The people in the two cars got off, whispered to each other by the side of the road, each got into the car, and ordered to turn around.After driving for a while, the car stopped, only to realize that it was back to the Mang River outside the village.The man told him to get off the car and said, "Go home, I won't see you off."

At that time, I really didn't know where I was, it was like a dream, I didn't expect to come back so soon, although the time was not long, it was long enough to remember.If it's just for him alone, it's easier, but since there is such an action, it's hard to say in the future.The safety of the academic world is really worrying, because he teaches self-cultivation classes, some students think he helps the government suppress freedom of thought, because he draws lessons from history, and the authorities think he helps the other side, how difficult it is to walk their own way independently.He felt as if he was walking on a single-plank bridge, facing waves, and the depth of the water was unpredictable.He was dizzy and stretched out his hand to pull Bichu. "Don't let the mosquito get it", he thought of this poem and sighed deeply.Bi Chu patted him lightly, and said softly: "Sleep, sleep." "As long as you have a clear conscience, you can't do much." Thinking of this, Fuzhi gradually fell asleep.

The next day, Li Lian reported the matter to the school, and everyone was surprised.Principal Qin contacted the relevant units, and they all said that they had never sent anyone to arrest the professor, and they knew about Mr. Meng, and there would be no such thing.Another day passed and still no clues could be found, Qin Xunheng and Xiao Ziwei went to visit Meng's house together.Fuzhi recounted the situation that night in detail, and the three talked for a long time.Qin Xunheng said: "Of course it was planned by someone. There are many various institutions in Kunming, and there are conflicts between the central and local governments, and the relationship is complicated. This incident may also be a kind of temptation, because Fuzhi's color is not so bright, and he thinks it is easy to deal with. This is because I think for them." Fu Zhi smiled and said: "Some things may be difficult to find out, a history is a written history, who can understand which ones are true and which ones are false. There is too much dirt in China's officialdom , It is necessary to clean up and improve. I wrote those articles only in the hope of a good government, but I didn’t intend to overthrow anyone. If you try me, just look for me, and I hope you won’t harass others.” Zi Wei Dao: "The current society does not have an independent cultural force. We are actually very pitiful. But I always believe that democracy is an inevitable future, but it only takes time." He lodged a protest with relevant parties and demanded protection of personal safety.Qin and Xiao also brought news that Yan Liangzu had been reinstated, and they discussed that it is wise to appoint someone who can fight now.

Ziwei brought a letter from E, which was sent to Ancestral Hall Street.Bi Chu and the other three watched it first.The letter was very short, and it only said that I was thinking about my family and my mother's health. She was doing well. Although Dali was closer to the front line than Kunming, it didn't feel the impact of the war.The surroundings are extremely quiet, and I have nothing to do except to study plants. Sometimes I feel that I am also a plant.This is the third letter since E left, and the content is similar.Bi Chu said: "It must be colder on Diancang Mountain, so don't even mention the food." After Qin and Xiao resigned, the Meng family took E's letter and read it for a long time, and Mei suddenly said, "We all go to the temple in Diancang Mountain, where there are all kinds of flowers." "Are you going to run away again?" asked.Fuzhi's heart trembled, and he reached out to stroke his head. "Go to the temple in Diancang Mountain".This remark aroused many thoughts in Fuzhi.Everyone has their own way.E'e's future can be roughly assured that she will make some achievements in botany.However, state affairs and social affairs still need to be managed by people.The few articles he wrote are for the country and the people, and the government is too intolerant.The final exam is coming soon, and my illness is still not good, which makes people worry.While thinking wildly, Bi Chu brought the medicine and said: "Everything else comes from outside, the body is the most important thing." He scooped up the medicine juice with a small spoon, blew it gently, and looked at Fu Zhi with a smile. "I'll be fine." Fu Zhi also smiled. A few days later, Chief Yin sent someone to express his condolences, and his words were very polite.It is a pity that it is rude to Professor Meng to say that such a thing happened on the land of this province.Fuzhi had a short talk with the visitor, talking about the protection of human rights.Later, Jiang Fang suggested that this conversation should be published in the newspapers.Fu Zhi did not agree. Not many people knew about it, but people kept coming from the city to visit.One morning, a car drove up the mountain, and there were horses standing on the pedals on both sides outside the car.Qinghuan was sweeping the floor at the gate, thinking that another disaster was coming, so she rushed in to report it.At this time the car stopped outside the door, Ma Bian jumped out of the car, opened the car door, a mighty soldier and a light female student walked out, it turned out to be Yan Liangzu and Hui Shu.That Ma Bian stood in the courtyard and announced loudly: "Commander Yan is here to worship!" Fu Zhi and Bi Chu rushed out to welcome him.Hui Shu went up and held the third aunt's hand, called "Third Aunt", and bowed her head in silence.Everyone went in and sat down.Yan Liangzu said: "Su Chu is very worried, but she will not go out. I know about your situation. I think our brother-in-law will be lucky. I will go to fight in southern Yunnan soon." Fu Zhi said: "Before Two days ago, I heard that you have been reinstated, and you are busy with military affairs, and you still come—" Liangzu interrupted: "Of course I will come to see you first, I have not dared to move around these years, and there is almost no one to take care of me." After talking for a while, he suddenly said loudly "Are you dreaming?" Fu Zhi was taken aback, and said, "It's possible." The two looked at each other and laughed.At this time, Ma Bian moved in a dozen or so packages of things, including milk powder, cocoa, coffee, canned meat, etc. used by the US military.There are also local products, such as milk fans and milk cakes.There were also two large boxes of Hashma, which were a popular tonic at that time.Fu Zhidao: "Moved to a small warehouse?" Liangzu said sincerely: "We only hope that Sanmei's family is in good health, the War of Resistance is not over." Fu Zhi said: "The War of Resistance has been won, but there is still a long way to go Let’s go.” Huishu and Bichu went inside, took out a pair of sandalwood rosary beads, handed them to Bichu, and said, “This is for my mother to recite Buddha’s name. Mother said, the number of Buddha’s names on these rosary beads has been accumulated beyond count, so give it to Bichu.” The third aunt’s house is hung to ward off evil spirits." Bi Chu was moved, seeing that the rosary beads were carved very finely, and the beads were connected continuously, and after looking around the room, she hung it on the banner written by Fuzhi, because she asked: "Elder sister What do you use now?" Huishu said: "There is another good pair. My mother said that this pair has many Buddha names, which is strange. Sometimes I also read a few words with the rosary, and my heart seems to be much quieter." You will be bullied." Hui Shu said hesitantly, "I don't know where Aunt He heard that Third Aunt is going to sell that pair of emeralds. She said Mrs. Yin wants to see it." Bi Chu said: "What a coincidence, I I have entrusted Qian Ming to handle this matter. He must first show it to the female chieftain." Hui Shu said: "This pair of jewelry from Aunt San is rare, and Aunt He means that if she handles it, there will be a good price. She asked me to say that." Huishu paused, "She must be proud of herself for doing these things. This is my estimate. I think she will handle it well." "Since she knows about this, she must know that the item is no longer in my hands." Bichu thought for a while and said, "Go back and tell me that Aunt He's kindness is appreciated by Aunt San. If she has already contacted the person who handled it, please ask her Help us fight for the price, we need to live on this money." "Understood." Hui Shu bowed his head and said. Bichu was going to Zhang Luofan, but Huishu stopped him and said, "Father has already made up his mind. If the third uncle is still in good spirits, let's go to Heilongtan together. Okay?" The four got into the car, leaving Qinghuan and carrying them to look after the house. The car drove across the Mang River, and soon arrived at the edge of the Longjiang River. The water in the Longjiang River was very fast, and there were waves in the middle of the river, one after another, rushing forward.The car passed by the Institute of Plants and talked about E's situation in Dali.Liang Zu said: "Don't worry, I think Miss E will definitely become a botanist." Bi Chu said: "I hope it's like what my uncle said." When the car arrived at Heilongtan, two horses carried a sheet of paper from somewhere. The chair came and asked Fu Zhi to sit on it, but Fu Zhi even said he didn't dare, and firmly refused to sit.Everyone walked slowly and watched the scenery, feeling refreshed.Liangzu led the way and said, "I'll take you to a good place." When they walked to the back of the pavilion on a high place, they saw a small gate beside the wall, and when they walked out of the small gate, there was a large pine forest with grass growing under the trees. Mixed with rhododendrons.The rhododendrons here are not in pieces, but in piles and clumps, as if in some formation.At this time, the blooming period of flowers has passed, and the lingering flowers are still very gorgeous, persistently nostalgic for the ground covered with green grass.I didn't feel the wind at first, but the further I walked, the more I felt the waves of pines above my head.Liang Zu said: "How is it? I'm a warrior, so this place is not bad!" Fuzhi was a little tired, so he sat down on a tree stump and said, "It's good to live in seclusion here." "I'm not a hermit , When I heard that I was able to return to work and fight, I came back to life." Bi Chu sighed: "Is it true that Fu Zhi can do it? I don't think so." Fu Zhi said: "It is the one who knows me." Ma Bian came over and spread an oilcloth on the grass and put a pot of tea, Liangzu waved them away.Everyone listened carefully to the pine waves and watched the flower array carefully, and all forgot their troubles.Huishu ran away to look at a small stream by himself, and Liangzu suddenly said: "I have always had an idea that soldiers are always prepared to die in battle. Let her go to school in Peiping with you in the future." Bichu couldn't feel her eyes wet, and said: "Brother Liangzu, don't say that, we will take care of Huishu, and you will take care of her in the long run." Fuzhi said: "Go to school in Peiping Very good. Brother Liang Zu, you can rest assured." Liang Zu smiled and said, "I know there is no need to ask, my aunt is the closest, let alone people like you." Behind him, he stepped forward and bowed to Fu Zhi.Bi Chu said: "I have always said that Hui Shu is a sensible child who will have good luck." After resting for a while, Liangzu ordered Ma Bian to arrange the chairs and insisted on letting Fu Zhi sit on them, but Fu Zhi could not walk anymore. , sit on it, and be carried by the horse, all the way down to the edge of the Black Dragon Pool. There are some rice noodle and bait shop outside the park, which is not a place for talking.At that time, some units borrowed park houses.Liang Zu ordered to borrow a room from a research institute, and provided food and drinks on his behalf, and everything was ready.Everyone enter the room and sit down.Someone served food and wine, greeted the waiters, Liangzu ordered: "Except for serving food, go far away." Looking at some cold dishes, he said: "It's the same old way."Liang Zu held up his teacup and said: "The road ahead is indeed very long. I am not afraid of fighting the Japanese. I have never wavered in my belief that the war of resistance will win. What I am afraid of is the next step." Fuzhi said: "If you can't resist, you can only Escaped. There are various ways to escape, and it’s not just about changing places. For example, Bai Juyi wrote "Xinfeng Folded Arm Man" because "there is a name in the military register", so "I dare not let others know it late at night, and secretly beat a big stone "Broken arms', this is also a kind of escape, he is trying to protect himself. It would be even more difficult if he is not only protecting himself." "Perhaps he needs to sacrifice himself to protect the overall situation." Liangzu said thoughtfully.Fuzhi looked at him and said, "That's not the best policy." For a while, Ma Bian served hot dishes for everyone to eat.Liang Zu introduced: "Today there are only two dishes that I can talk about. One is steam pot chicken, which was stewed early in the morning; the other is fried lotus petals. There is a lotus field nearby. They have this way of eating." It was fragrant, and there was porridge made with chicken soup. Liangzu said in particular: "This is what Huishu told me." Speaking of Yingshu during the meal, Yingshu was not successful after graduation. After a while, she finally found a job. .Served as a staff officer in a certain division, managed logistics work, and came back twice, it seems that I have gained insight.Fu Zhidao: "Ying Shu is serious about studying, we don't talk much, I think his thoughts have become more lively in the past two years." Liangzu smiled and said: "He loves to listen to you the most, and the influence is obvious." At this time, Duan The last dessert was fried lotus petals, which were crispy and fragrant.After dinner, I will send Fuzhi and his wife home first.Huishu took Bichu's hand again and asked, "When will you move to the city?" "It's always during summer vacation, so it's closer then." A few days later, Qian Mingjing sent a large sum of money, and the ornament was sold.He didn't talk about the detailed process, but said that Hezhu came to contact him and wanted to lower the price to please Mrs. Yin. He said that Mr. Meng is not a stone idiot in Li, so this matter will not work.But the female chieftain thought of some ways to sell the money.The buyer is said to be a Nepalese prince. "It's not a secret casting of a pearl!" He said somewhat proudly.It is also specifically stated that the previous grant has been deducted.Bichu was very grateful, saying that the money just helped Fuzhi recover.He hesitated several times, and finally said: "I feel very sorry for Hui Fen for entrusting you to do this." Ming Jing immediately understood, and said: "Ms. Mu is clear about our affairs. In my heart, no one can surpass Hui You." Bi Chu said: "I think she is even more so." The two mentioned that Ling Xueyan was about to give birth, and Bi Chu arranged in her heart that some of the money would be shared with her to get through the period.Mingjing said: "The price is soaring now, and the money can't be saved. It's better to deal with it." Bichu said: "Thanks for thinking about it, I entrust you to do it. Okay?" Mingjing thought about it and agreed. After recuperation, Fuzhi's health obviously improved, and he often got up and walked around, sat at the desk again, wrote down two final exam questions, and asked Li Lian to take them.Bi Chu joked: "It's so much better, I didn't make a wish." Qinghuan said from the side: "I made a wish, I guess I'm not the only one who made a wish." Shide suddenly jumped on his knees and arched Fuzhi's arm , the one who made the wish probably still has it. third quarter At the end of the final exam, Ling Xueyan corrected the last paper in the hut, and sighed deeply, she finally finished what she should do, without procrastination or delay, and now she can concentrate on welcoming her child.Wei Feng originally wanted her to wait in the city to give birth.Xueyan said that there is still one month left before the confinement period, and she should stay in Luoyanpo for a few days before coming to the city.At that time, there was a carriage from the city to the plant, and two wooden boards were added to the side of the carriage to form a bench. The seats were not comfortable, but they could save some energy.Before Xueyan left, she wiped down the hut.They are already in the process of changing a house, and they are also in Diaoyu Lane. The room is bigger and can accommodate a family of three.Every time they went to visit, they discussed putting tables here and chairs there.Wei Feng even made some small designs quietly, such as repairing a stove or something.He thought that Xueyan would surprise her next time she came to the city. They got on the car at Xiaodongmen, the car was slower than walking, and when there was a bump, Wei Feng helped Xueyan get off the car and walked slowly, looking at the blue sky and green trees all the way, approaching the blue fields and clear waves.The two smiled knowingly from time to time.Wei Feng whispered: "Xuexue, guess what I'm thinking?" Xueyan replied softly: "I can only tell you what I'm thinking. In the near future, we will be three people living together. Go out together, Let's go in together, come and go together." This is exactly what Wei Feng thought, he couldn't help holding Xueyan's hand and stroking it, causing the whole car to look at the young couple with happy eyes.An old nanny pointed to Xueyan's belly and said it was a boy, Wei Feng said: "The same goes for girls." The old woman got out of the car first.Others said: "Don't change the old man's auspicious words." The two quickly agreed: "Understood." It was not far from the Botanical Institute to Luoyanpo Road. They discussed the baby's name along the way, and imagined several boys' names and girls' names. The discussion was heated, but there was no result.After all, Xueyan's body was heavy, and she took a break several times to shift her target like this. She walked into the city a week ago and only took a break once.As soon as they arrived at the house, a host came out to welcome them warmly. It was Liu.Willow danced around them, blocked the door again, stretched out two front legs, one for each person, and held them, and then almost engulfed them in the door. The enthusiasm of Mr. Mi and Mrs. Mi was not inferior. Come for rice, soy bean and mustard green soup, and persuade Liu not to disturb.Liu has been walking up and down with Xueyan, and now she is lying on the outside of the west wing and watching. There is a lot of space here, the blue sky stretches unreservedly, there is no bombing, no refugees, the small village is very quiet, only the Longjiang River flows day and night.Two days later, Wei Feng went to the city because of some activities.Bichu brought money, Qinghuan, and the pair of diamond bracelets to visit.Xueyan said that she could bear hardships and that she didn’t need money. Bichu patted her and said it was a child’s talk, and insisted on keeping both the money and Qinghuan. Before leaving, she took out the bracelet and said, “This is for the baby. " Xueyan said anxiously: "Why is Fifth Aunt still not accepting it?" Bichu said: "I have already accepted it, it is for the little baby, and the money problem has been solved. If you don't listen to me, Fifth Aunt I'm going to be angry." Xueyan had no choice but to put away her things, and the two sat at Mi's house for a while. "Fifth Aunt came to see us." Xueyan said.Then he spoke to Baofei in French.During the conversation, Mr. Mi seriously asked a question: "I have always wanted to study your names. I know that Fen's mother and Mr. Meng are cousins. According to Chinese customs, Fen should be called Mr. Meng's fifth uncle. What do you call it?" What about Uncle Wu? Am I taking the liberty of asking this question?" Bi Chu smiled and said, "Mr. Mi understands the terms of kinship relations in China so well. Wei Yao should call us Fifth Uncle and Fifth Aunt because his mother—our The cousin is a new-style person, she said that parents and relatives should be treated equally, and must be called that. Wei Feng’s father is also very new-style, and she said that you can call him whatever you want. Fortunately, there is no fifth uncle in the Wei family." Mr. Mi nodded and said: "I usually hear from Feng that his parents are very interesting people. They didn't come out to do things because of their poor health." Xueyan said slowly: "They really want to leave the enemy-occupied area. It was too difficult for them, and they entrusted all their ideals and ambitions to their son." Baofei said happily: "Their son is going to have a son." Mr. Mi and Mrs. Mi went to see Bichu off.Xueyan stood in front of the courtyard and watched them go downhill, thinking that the child who was about to be born must be a happy person.With Qinghuan, life is more relaxed. Every day, Mrs. Mi and Mrs. Mi slowly arrange baby clothes, do some sewing, design and discuss, and the small courtyard is full of peaceful joy. Xueyan felt a little scared amidst the joy of anticipation, wondering if she could pass this test.She misses her parents, too, her father, who looked up at the sky and was out of this world, and her mother, who worried about everything and blamed others all the time.If you are by their side, you will not feel uneasy or afraid if you hold your mother's hand.She has been away from home for more than four years. At first, she was reluctant to write letters, and she got news from home. Later, she was afraid that her parents would not be able to bear the miss, so she wrote to her mother to get some news. She dared not write more letters. hands.I don't know how they are now, what did the Japanese force them to do?This thought is like a big rock, which makes people feel oppressed and heavy.Thinking of Li Yuming's death and the vicious rumors again, the mourning made her feel like a hole in her heart, and tears of sympathy fell into her.The rumors made her heart feel like a hard scab, which would often ache sharply.Seeing her bored, Qinghuan said: "I want to tell you some stories to make you happy, but my stories are not happy." Xueyan said: "I heard that you are a capable and brave girl." Qinghuan Shaking his head, he said, "I'm a smart person, no one dares to marry me." As he spoke, his eyes turned red.Xueyan didn't want to ask further questions, Qinghuan said: "You really don't know about me? If I say a word, don't tell others. Mrs. Meng really doesn't even tell you?" Xueyan smiled and said: "We don't like to discuss Private matter." Qinghuan sighed: "You are blessed, although your parents are not around, Mrs. Meng treats you so well!" Gradually in intermittent conversations, Qinghuan told her own simple and strange stories. When she was ten years old, she was abducted and bought, and she was replaced by several families as a girl, and finally fell into Pingjiang village to serve the female chieftain.That female chieftain is very beautiful, very greedy, likes money, especially jade, there is a room full of jade.The place was humid, and there were many centipedes, all of which were very poisonous. There were rumors of raising and releasing Gu, but she had never seen it with her own eyes.The female toast uses a few herbs and smashes them together with the centipede, which is said to treat incurable diseases.One day, when Qinghuan was cleaning the house, two centipedes crawled out of a large earthen jar and bit the back of her hand. Her hand immediately swelled up, even her arms.But Qinghuan didn't die, and the redness and swelling disappeared quickly.The female chieftain was surprised and put some centipedes on the table and ordered her to wipe the table. She jumped on the table and trampled the centipedes to death. The lady chief was very angry and said, "I think you are a voodoo." Qinghuan said: "I disagreed a few words. How can I release Gu! I don't even have to raise poisonous insects. The woman was even more angry, saying, I mean, she raised poisonous insects, and from now on she will fight against me everywhere. Be sure to admit that I let go of Gu, and some people say that she is trying to harm me and come to sacrifice those jade objects." Xueyan said in shock: "This seems to be hundreds of years ago." Qinghuan smiled wryly: "Mrs. Meng also said the same , but those of us lived hundreds of years ago. I fled home from Pingjiangzhai. My mother died soon after, and then I went to my aunt’s house. My aunt also died soon. What did I do, I didn’t do anything, am I really unlucky?” Xueyan’s heart ached, and she whispered: “Rumors really hurt people, they hurt people so that people can’t fight back, that female chieftain is clearly a rumor-monger Yes, you have to live a good life. Only by living can you prove that you have nothing to do with Gu." Qinghuan shook her head and lowered her head to work.After a while, he raised his head and said: "This time driving the caravan is not far from Pingjiang village. Two people died. Ma Guotou said that I put Gu on, and then fell into the hands of the female chieftain. She said you escaped." , Why did I come back again, so I was locked up, I escaped in the dark, walked for two days, and was overtaken by people chasing me by the Longjiang River, fortunately I met Mei and the others, and I had the opportunity to jump into the Longjiang River to escape , I didn’t drown, and no one came to me afterwards.” Xueyan recalled that Mei said that when she saw someone jumping into the Longjiang River, it turned out to be Qinghuan. Order, after so many disasters, you are still fine, you should live well, this is your right." Qinghuan nodded slowly. On the evening of the third day after Wei Feng left, Xueyan suddenly felt unwell, and then her stomach hurt more and more. Mrs. Mi said that she was going to give birth, and the three of them were at a loss, and discussed sending Qinghuan to invite Bichu.Qinghuan ran all the way to Zhao Er's house to borrow a horse, and led him up the mountain.Bi Chu was calling Fuzhi to take the medicine, when he heard the sound from the door of Leiyuan, he was startled, the medicine spilled some, he quickly wiped it off with a towel, after hearing what Qinghuan said, he told Mei and He to take care of their father, and wanted to go down Yanpo to go.Mei was very worried, and said: "Mother, can I go?" Bi Chu said: "Silly boy, you don't understand, take good care of the family." She didn't know how to ride a horse, but Qinghuan said: "I will take care of you, I will take care of you." It's a caravan." Sure enough, although the night was getting dark, the journey was safe and sound, and when they arrived at Luoyanpo, they saw Xueyan barely sitting, with beads of sweat dripping from her forehead.Bi Chu hurriedly boiled the water, tried her best to think about the situation when she gave birth, laid the bedding paper, and let Xueyan lean on her to help her.Several times Xueyan felt that death was by her side, she was just one step away, and held on to Bichu's hand.碧初教她调整呼吸，有节奏地用力，一直折腾到晨光熹微，雪妍忽然觉得身上一松，好像五脏都给掏空了，紧接着一声婴儿啼哭，把晨光惊得一跳，一个小人儿来到世上。雪妍软软地松开手，大家都松了一口气，包括守在门外的柳。米太太用意第绪语高声念了一句祝词。碧初剪了脐带，把婴儿抱给雪妍看，雪研昏昏沉沉，再无一点力气，望着婴儿喃喃地说：“你就是我的儿子？”碧初忙加了一句，是男孩。
