The gathering with Qinhuai and Surou was a big drunken affair, and we slept directly in the middle of a pile of empty beer cans.
After getting drunk, Surou yelled at the ceiling: "I can finally go to Guangzhou. I want to make a fortune this time, make a fortune..."
And Qinhuai was crying like a tearful person over there, shouting: "I miss Ling Ruyue so much, Ling Ruyue, where are you?"
I couldn't say anything, I just felt the wine spreading throughout my body, but I couldn't find the feeling of being drunk. It was a bit sad not to be drunk.
I didn't dare to drink any more. I was afraid that the more I drank, the more I would think about Ruxue soberly. But at this moment, Qinhuai got up, grabbed me by the collar and shouted: "If it's a man, bring it with you." Ruxue, let’s elope. Isn’t the world so big that it can’t accommodate you two? Silly x!”
Surou yelled: "*** Qinhuai, don't instigate Sanwa'er to do this. He is not an orphan. People can't find him, and... he still can't find his father... mother?"
I finally raised my neck and swallowed another can of beer, put the can on the ground, and yelled: "Why don't I get drunk? I won't drink beer anymore. If I want to drink, I will only drink white wine! After drinking white wine, I will Go find Ling Ruxue, I will elope with her."
"Hahaha, silly x..." Qinhuai scolded with a smile.
"Hahaha, *** Sanwa'er is the same as before. Qinhuai, let me tell you, he used to drag me away from home...and he ran away from home!"
"Running away from home for a little girl?"
"Hahaha, no, he was afraid of getting beaten when he got into trouble, so he dragged... dragging me to join the Red Army."
"Hahaha... "
Su Rou started to tell embarrassing things about me. I was lying on the ground, half drunk and half awake, feeling very happy to be with them like this.
------Dividing line------
The days in Beijing passed quickly, peacefully and fulfillingly.
I saw a lot of people and felt all kinds of busy, but this kind of busyness that belongs to ordinary people suddenly made me feel happy, and I felt a little dizzy with happiness.
My parents are going back to Sichuan, and my sister and her family don’t want to stay in Beijing. The eldest sister says there are too many people, and the second sister feels she’s not used to the food, so her hometown is better.
My family is like this, they don't seek wealth, they just like a peaceful and ordinary life.
Sister-in-law Jingyi is very good, and her son with Brother Sheng is also very well-behaved. Today, Sister-in-law Jingyi is assigned to work as a teacher in a university. She is much better than before when she was almost idle. It seems that she misses Brother Sheng. It's faded a lot, but I know that it's actually just in my heart.
Brother Yuan Yi's situation has changed in the past six months. This is what Yuan Xi told me, because she always seemed to have an emotional reaction to what Brother Yuan Yi said to her.
I was very happy, and I always took time out to talk to Brother Yuan Yi every day. When I talked about the ending of the Miao Village incident, I found that Brother Yuan Yi's eyes suddenly opened, and his eyes were full of joy. Various emotions, happiness, sadness, longing... .
That is definitely not an emotion that an unconscious person can have. This discovery makes me very happy, maybe brother Yuan Yi can really slowly return to normal. I have a feeling that he has survived the most difficult stage.
Two days before I left, Su Rou went to Guangzhou without hesitation. Facing Qinhuai and I who were seeing him off at the train station, he said arrogantly: "This time, I will never come back unless I become a rich man." .”
He didn't seem to be sad, but when he stepped on the train, he hugged me and said to me: "Chengyi, I haven't been home for several years. If you have extra money, give my mother some extra money. Just say that I earned it, and tell them that I am going to make a fortune at a critical moment. When I go back one day, I will definitely drive back in a Santana car, and I can’t wait long."
"Okay." I solemnly agreed.
At this time, the circles around Surou's eyes were a little red. Qinhuai was afraid that he would cry, so she immediately said: "Surou, I'm not in a hurry for you to pay back my brother's money. I'm not in a hurry."
Su Rou went over and strangled Qinhuai's neck tightly, pretending to gnash his teeth and said: "Don't pretend like this to remind me, when I come back, I will scare you to death with money."
The three of us laughed heartlessly at the train station, but when Surou got on the train, I saw the kid pretending to yawn and wipe his face vigorously.
I often visited Master Li and Brother Chengqing, and by the way, I told Master Li everything about the Black Rock Miao Village. Master Li closed his eyes and listened very carefully, but he didn't express anything special after listening.
He just said: "I am old, very old. It is not easy for a fortune teller to live to this age. During this period, I will resign to the country, and then I will go to the bamboo forest house and live there." In the last few days, I have been nourishing my heart and taking some time off. Chengqing, please come with me."
Why do everyone have to flock to Bamboo Grove Villa? The small bamboo building built in the deep mountains really turned into a fragrant bun.
However, I am very happy! Many people think that I don't like liveliness, but in fact I like it very much and like that everyone in my life can get together. What I don’t like is just that I finally accepted a relationship, and then separated again, and said goodbye again... .
The day before leaving Beijing, I specially wore a formal suit. I have not worn a suit or tie for so many years, but this time, I had to do this.
Because I am going to attend a secret memorial service, a memorial service organized by the secret department.
Speaking of which, I am not a formal member of this department, but I must go on behalf of the master. This is what the master has ordered. Let me send these heroes off on his behalf.
Moreover, after being involved with this department for so many years, I have developed feelings for this department, so I should go there myself.
Some things cannot be put on the table, and it is destined that some heroes cannot be publicized. But as I stood in the memorial crowd, I clearly knew that they who had sacrificed would not care about the reputation of this hero. Just do things according to your own heart, and your reputation is just a cloud.
As the sad eulogy came, my thoughts began to become restless, as if I had returned to that rainy night, when dozens of us braved the heavy rain and fought against the bugs. That was a moment that belonged to men, a moment that belonged to heroes. People don't need to remember anything. Heaven and earth can remember it, and the cause and effect have already been written down.
Your sacrifice is glorious. Your parents, wives, and children may not know the specific deeds in the future. What they learn may be another version of the story of sacrifice and heroic deeds. But this does not prevent them from standing tall and saying, I have a good son (a good husband, a good father), and he is a hero.
This is a man's highest honor.
There are a lot of trivial matters in Beijing, but no matter how many things there are, they will be finished one day. After staying here for more than half a month, we are leaving Beijing.
This time, the department specially arranged two cars to transport us. Uncle Hui did not come with us. He said that he would not come until Hui Gener was on winter vacation.
Hui Gen'er is quite adaptable to school in Beijing. In short, none of his classmates know that he is a young monk, although they are very curious as to why he always has a bald head.
Facing the fact that we were leaving, Hui Gen'er was not too willing, but when he heard that he could reunite with us during the winter vacation, he was happy again.
I don’t know if I will return to Beijing this time. To be honest, I don’t understand why Master proposed to go back to Zhulin Xiaozhu to stay for a few days. I thought he would arrange for me to join the department.
But I can never guess what Master is thinking. His arrangement makes me a little confused about my future. What should I do in the future? If possible, according to my temperament, of course I would like to live in a small bamboo forest with Master and practice Taoism with peace of mind. As long as I can occasionally get together with my family and friends.
But is this possible? I do not know either.
Along the way from north to south, the winter cold gradually subsided. When we reached the south, Yuan Xi found a newly blooming wild flower on the roadside and couldn't help but happily said to me: "Brother Chengyi, You can feel the breath of spring here, it's great. My dad is getting well soon."
This time, we brought brother Yuan Yi back to Sichuan with hope of recovery. This is what Master said. The soil and water there support people. Yuan Yi is likely to recover faster there, and Yuan Xi cannot live without it. Brother Kai Yuanyi.
Is spring coming? Hopefully, everyone's life seems to be getting better this time and is on the right track. And I seem to have seen a better future. I hope I never have to leave in this spring.
