At night, there are stars, the sky is full of stars, and the moon shines on the earth.
In the lush mountain forest, the cry of nightingales can be heard from the depths.
The group of four people, dressed completely inconsistent with the local dressing style, embarked on their way home with steps that they did not recognize their relatives.
"You all know what to say when you go home."
"Don't worry, brother, it's not just once or twice, I won't forget it."
"Well, let's go home first. Don't spill the beans. You know what time it is now. I won't tell you. If you spill the beans, you will bear the consequences."
He Yuzhu took this matter very seriously because he knew what kind of situation he would face after the matter was exposed.
Walking on the moonlit path, we arrived at the small two-story foreign-style building at the west end of the village.
The dim light inside the house shines through the screen window and reflects on a poplar tree swaying in the wind.
Boom!
The gate has been bolted, and Father Qin and Mother Qin must have gone to bed early.
Creak! The door opens.
The person who opened the door was his brother-in-law, Qin Xiaohu. The steel mill was on holiday today and he went home to rest and visit his girlfriend.
The good times for the two of them were approaching, and Qin Xiaohu went home to show his courtesy more and more frequently.
"Brother-in-law, you are back."
Qin Xiaohu was very happy. He was sincerely grateful to He Yuzhu.
If it weren't for He Yuzhu, who would his family be? Where would he get his job, where would his family get the house, and how could Shui Hua's father agree to him marrying Shui Hua.
Therefore, he was grateful to He Yuzhu from the bottom of his heart. In terms of status in his heart, the first place was his biological father, and the second place was He Yuzhu.
"I'm almost busy now. Come back and see your sister. Where is your sister? Is she asleep?"
"No, my sister hasn't seen you recently, and her temper is getting worse and worse. My mother said that she got sick from good times, and that she was born with blessings and doesn't know the blessings."
"Hey, then I have to go up and coax you. If I don't come back, your sister won't tear me alive."
He Yuzhu handed the big leather bag in his hand to Qin Xiaohu, "See if there is anything you like to eat and choose two." After saying that, he went up the stairs.
Upstairs, as soon as I opened the door, a familiar music floated into my ears.
“Sweet honey, your smile is so sweet;
Like flowers blooming in the spring breeze;
blooming in the spring breeze;
I've seen you there;
Your smile is so familiar;
I couldn't recall it at the moment;
…”
It is the sweet voice of Teresa Teng that is popular all over the country. In Hong Kong Island, He Yuzhu often listens to songs about her.
Qin Jingru was humming a song and knitting a sweater. When she heard the sound of the door opening, she thought it was her mother and said impatiently: "I won't eat. How many times have I told you, I won't eat."
"If you don't want to eat, the child should eat too."
"Starve to death."
As soon as the words came out of her mouth, she suddenly realized that her voice was not right.
When she looked up, she saw that it was the man she had dreamed of day and night.
For a moment, the grievance in her heart was like a fierce tiger, occupying the emotional high ground, making her eyes red instantly, and tears could not stop flowing.
He Yuzhu looked confused. He didn't know what happened. Why was he crying?
He quickly stepped forward and held her in his arms, asking softly: "What's wrong? Who bullied you?"
It's okay if I don't ask, but if I ask, it's a big deal and I'll cry even harder.
My shoulders were shaking from crying, and my cry was close to choking.
Instead of asking her what happened, he gently patted her back, listened to her cry, and vented her grievances.
When his shoulders were wet with tears, Qin Jingru stopped crying and hugged him, crying, fussing, biting, and kissing him.
Resentment, grievance, joy, concern, all kinds of emotions are released in an instant.
Qin Jingru's coquettish performance made He Yuzhu feel like there was a kitten scratching him in his heart, making him feel soft, warm and comfortable, as if he had fallen into cotton.
"Okay, okay, you are so old, and you are still acting petty."
"You also said that you haven't been back for two weeks, and I'm worried to death."
"Oh, I'm very safe. Even the King of Heaven and I are not as safe as me. What are you worried about? Tell me what you are worried about."
The tips of their noses touched each other, and their soft fur touched each other, giving people a very strange feeling.
"I don't know what I'm worried about. Just because I can't see you all day long makes me feel panicked and congested."
"Mom is right, you are born in good times. If you are asked to work in the fields all day long, you will not think about anything."
"If you don't feel bad, I will go to the ground tomorrow."
"Hey, it's just talk. How can I really let you do it? There is no shortage of food for you at home. Why don't I take you out to play when you are free tomorrow?"
"Where to go?"
"You can go anywhere, it's up to you."
"I don't want to go anywhere. It's very chaotic outside and people are being arrested everywhere."
"We are both well-educated. Who dares to arrest us?"
"Then I don't want to go either."
"Okay, then I will bring the TV at home tomorrow. If you have nothing to do, you can watch TV to relieve your boredom. Do you still read the book?"
"How dare you look at it? It's so strict."
"Okay, then you stay at home and wait until the baby is born, then I will take you out to have fun."
"No, I want to be happy."
"You're pregnant, how can you act recklessly? Just bear with it, it's the last three months."
"You said the same thing last time."
"Really? I said four months last time."
"Hate. Are you hungry? I'll cook for you."
"What do you think, I'm almost starving to death."
"Oh, just wait a moment and I'll do it faster."
Although Qin Jingru's belly was only six months old, it was the same size as someone else's nine-month pregnancy. It was extremely big. He Yuzhu felt like twins.
Speaking of children, there is a real problem.
There are no doctors in the hospital now. They are all young and inexperienced nurses. Asking them to deliver babies is simply harmful to people.
When the time comes to give birth to a baby, I will think of a suitable excuse to take Qin Jingru to Hong Kong Island.
After walking around the house, he found that they were all familiar things and nothing new was added.
However, there was a black notebook in the drawer that caught his attention, and he opened the notebook.
On January 3, there was neither wind nor rain. The day after Zhuzi left, I missed him very much and didn’t know where to go. He said he was going to do business, but I felt it was wrong. He was hiding something from me.
…
On February 15th, it rained heavily, and my second aunt's family gave birth to a lamb. The ewe screamed really miserably. Is it that painful to give birth to a baby?
…
On March 9th, it was overcast and very cold. I took out my military coat from the pillar and put it on. It was quite warm.
…
On March 19th, in Xiaoyu, Daxi's wife gave birth to a baby. I was very scared, but in the end I couldn't help being curious and took a peek. Daxi's daughter-in-law kept screaming, and I wanted to ask if it hurt, but she told me to get out.
On March 20, when the weather cleared, I came to Daxi's house again and asked Daxi's wife how it felt to have a baby. She was feeding the baby, looked at my belly, smiled and said to me, it didn't hurt at all. I
I knew she was lying to me. When she saw the midwife holding the scissors, she burst into tears and called Daxi's name, but Daxi was not allowed to come in. If I give birth in the future, I will definitely let Zhuzi come in to accompany me.
