On September 9th, when the great man left, everyone's world suddenly collapsed.
Sad, confused, not knowing where the future is.
This year has been a really difficult year.
No one in the entire company was interested in producing.
On Lin Yutong's side, the three children were so noisy that no one had a moment of leisure. In addition to preparing food, the fourth master also had to wash the children's diapers.
Diapers cannot be used during the day, so it seems that the diapers can never be washed. Just after the eldest child was cleaned up, the second child peed again. After a round of treatment, you have to take the time to wash it. Just washing is not enough, you also have to
Drying. Because it has been raining, it can only be dried in the main room, so that the fire in the main room cannot be extinguished twenty-four hours a day.
The children were fed milk and had to drink water regularly. They peeed very quickly, once every half an hour. Often the last round of peeing was just washed out, and the next round of peeing was wet again.
Cheng Hao came to visit and taught Fourth Master his experience, "If the child pees, it's not dirty. Don't wash it all the time. It's okay to use it several times before washing it."
The fourth master smiled and said he understood. But he did it the same way he did before. He couldn't stand the child using dirty diapers. Now, he felt uncomfortable asking the child to use washed diapers. He felt uncomfortable.
Lin Yutong felt that the fourth master was a particularly responsible father. He was then and is now. He always tried to give them the best within his own ability. He even found a way to get two new pots, one pot for the children.
Boil clothes. Use a pot to boil diapers for children. Washed diapers must be boiled again.
Therefore, Lin Yutong kept feeding the children on the kang and changing their diapers. The fourth master was busy down below, from morning to night, and had no leisure time.
It is precisely because of the hand-in-hand care that they discovered the fun they had never discovered before.
For example, children will be frightened awake by the sound of their own farts, and may even cry. It makes people laugh.
On this day, the two of them were talking. Then the daughter giggled. Children usually laugh when they are two months old. When they heard the sound, their eyes were red.
Because these growths were missed by their parents when Hongzhao and Hongxuan were exposed to them. Often, people below would report it later.
But at this time, watching the child grow with my own eyes is a completely different feeling.
It's cold, and the children are wearing thick clothes, and their arms and legs cannot move freely. It must be uncomfortable for a three-month-old child who needs to turn over. Yusheng's temper is very bad. If he feels slightly uncomfortable, he will hum.
non-stop.
"This won't work. How can the child feel comfortable while being tied up?" Fourth Master asked the child to be clothed thickly.
Lin Yutong quickly stopped, "The temperature in this room is not good, and it will be even more troublesome if you catch a cold."
"We still have to return to the capital as soon as possible." Fourth Master looked at the children, "Go back and see if there are any houses with heating. Let's get over it temporarily. If we want people to live in the small courtyard, it needs to be renovated."
Lin Yutong felt troubled when he saw the child who was dressed like a cotton bag.
Without comparison, I don't think so. Compared with the conditions of those around me, the conditions here are already very good. But compared with Hongzhao and the others, it's really hard.
Lin Yutong felt distressed too.
Therefore, when Fourth Master said it, she was a little moved.
But I still shook my head, "No! My child is young and I can't stand the journey alone." From the train station here to Harbin, we had to take a truck, and we were stuck in the truck compartment all night. Just thinking about it makes people feel scared.
The Fourth Master sighed and hugged Yusheng, "We are really wronged by our girl."
When the freezing rain started to fall and the room became even colder, Lin Yutong could only take out the baby clothes prepared in the space and sew a layer of cotton on the outside to cover people's eyes and ears. The clothes were light and thin, but warm.
After defeating the bang, the whole company suddenly came to life. The sound of gongs, drums and suonas was loud.
The sky, which had not seen the sun for a long time, turned out to be sunny.
The sun outside shone into the room, and the three children's eyes narrowed slightly. They could not adapt to such light.
Two days later, the company headquarters asked Fourth Master to answer the phone. The call was from Beijing.
Fourth Master's eyes lit up, "Father's things have turned around."
After saying that, he picked up his coat and left.
The company commander pointed to the microphone placed on the telephone table and looked at the fourth master. The call came in through a dedicated military line.
The fourth master nodded and said "hello" softly.
"Yin Zhen..." A familiar voice came from the phone.
Fourth Master was stunned for a moment, and then asked tentatively: "Father?"
"It's me!" Yin Changtian responded.
The company commander saw that Fourth Master's eyes were red.
"Father!" Fourth Master asked hurriedly, "What is your...question..."
"Relatively free." Yin Changtian's voice could not hear any fluctuations. "Due to physical reasons, the old leader gave special permission to come back to recuperate..."
Fourth Master understood immediately. Although the problem has not been solved for the time being, and he does not know when he will be able to resume work, he has been placed in the capital under the pretext of recovering from illness.
This is really good news.
Listen to Yin Changtian's words: "I'm not in good health now. UHI will consider my situation and allow my children to come back and take care of me. You should come back as soon as possible. Take Tongtong with you."
The Fourth Master felt happy and worried at the same time, "Father, I can't go back for the time being."
"What? Are you having difficulty?" Yin Changtian asked eagerly on the phone. He also hoped to do something for his child. "You don't have to worry about the formalities. It's better for you to come back first."
"Father, I haven't had time to tell you yet. You have a grandson. On the night of the Tangshan earthquake, Tongtong gave birth to a girl and two boys. Three children..." Before the Fourth Master finished speaking, Yin Changtian's voice came over,
"Three?"
"Yes, father." Fourth Master knew what Yin Changtian was worried about, "The child is healthy, father can rest assured."
"You can't be careless. You are young..." Yin Changtian's voice was so loud that it made people's ears hurt.
Fourth Master thought to himself, just now he was pretending to be sick, could this sound mean he is sick now?
"You have to come back, come back right away. We have the best doctors here. We can't do it without a good examination." Yin Changtian banged the table on the other side, "Pack your things right away. Someone will pick you up tomorrow."
Before Fourth Master could speak, the phone over there was hung up.
Fourth Master was stunned for a long time holding the phone, but he was actually relieved. He could still call someone to pick them up, which proved that his freedom was relatively high.
The sound was so loud, how could the company commander not hear it?
There was something he didn't understand, so he nodded and said, "Okay, you kid. You've hidden it deep enough."
Fourth Master smiled and said: "I probably have to leave. I'll keep in touch from now on. If you need anything, I can do it without saying a word."
"I know your boy has friendship. Go ahead." The company commander patted the Fourth Master on the shoulder, "Don't make any announcements about leaving, and don't say goodbye. Quietly, otherwise, this group of educated youths will be confused.
"
Fourth Master nodded, indicating that he understood.
After Lin Yutong heard about it, he was really relieved. His wish came true and his children no longer had to suffer.
The next day, before dawn, Lin Yutong got up and packed his things. The clothes of the two of them were stuffed into the bag, and the children's things were also packed into three big bags. Most of the rest was stored in the space.
But if there is nothing left, and people see that I didn’t bring much with me as a courtesy, they won’t doubt it.
So the fourth master placed food, pots, pans and other things at the door of each house in the middle of the night. Those who had taken off their clothes to wrap the children that day also placed cloths. Finally, the quilt was wrapped in plastic paper
, placed in front of Bai Xiaomei's house.
It was still dark, and two jeeps were parked at the door. Yinwei and Guo Yonghong also got out of the cars.
No one disturbed anyone, so the Fourth Master brought the two of them into the house. Yinwei was very fond of the three children when she saw them. She pulled Lin Yutong and just said thank you for the hard work.
"Let's go." Guo Yonghong handed the backpack to the two drivers outside and urged in a low voice.
The couple and Yinwei then picked up the sleeping child and slowly left the house.
There were people in one car and luggage in the other. Yin Wei and Guo Yonghong both saluted a lot.
The company commander and instructor stood beside the car, escorted them to the car, and then waved goodbye.
Lin Yutong looked through the car window at the scenery slowly receding in the cold night. Her vision couldn't help but become blurry.
She will remember the people and things here forever.
The car stopped in the county town for more than ten minutes to say goodbye to Uncle Wang. In addition, Uncle Wang also had something to deliver to Mr. Xu.
Because there were children there, I didn’t say much. Anyway, it wasn’t too difficult to get in touch. For both parties, it was not difficult to make a phone call.
When riding in the car, Lin Yutong sat in the middle of the back seat, while Yinwei and Fourth Master sat on either side. This was for the convenience of feeding the children. Guo Yonghong sat in the front, which would not affect anything.
Because the children were still sleeping, the car was quiet. But everyone's heart was not at peace.
Life seems to be reaching a turning point here, and no one knows where it will lead.
The car was not heading towards the city. When Lin Yutong realized it, he realized that this was probably G Airport.
The huge roar of the plane woke up the child. On the plane, there were already several old men in clothes that did not look bright.
Lin Yutong guessed that, like Yin Changtian, they were also taken back to the capital to recuperate.
The child kept crying, and Lin Yutong was no longer afraid of flying in this era.
There was hot water on the plane, and milk powder was prepared for the three ancestors to drink.
Anyway, after changing the baby's diapers three times, the plane landed. It should have been more than two hours.
By the time we got on the small jeep again and arrived at a small courtyard house, it was already afternoon.
The adults were hungry, but the children still slept soundly.
There are two armed guards at the entrance of the courtyard. It seems that freedom is really limited.
After entering the door, Yin Changtian was on the steps at the door of the main house. He was wearing a gray sweater inside and a military coat outside.
"Father." Fourth Master called out.
Yinwei couldn't help crying, "Dad."
Yin Changtian looked at the two of them once and then said quickly: "Hold the child tightly to the side room and pack everything up."
Sure enough, it has been packed up. There is a heater in the room. The temperature is not low.
Lin Yutong put the child on the bed and took off the thick clothes one by one.
Yin Changtian saw his little grandson's eager little bird, and knew that it was about to pee, so he stretched out his hand to tease it.
Ye Sheng moved uncomfortably, and then a jet of water rushed out...
