Chapter 112: Qingzhou Station The Xie Family’s Daughters
Now the three of them looked at him, and Qin Lang said curiously: “Aren’t you fine recently? Let’s go to Haicheng for two days.”
Lei Feng lit a cigarette and puffed out the cigarette, and said seriously: "My old man's ashes of his comrades in arms are returning to China. I have to buy some good cigarettes and wine to accompany him to reminisce with old friends."
*
Gyeongju Station, set up camp.
After eating, the prisoners fell asleep to replenish their physical strength. I don’t know who in the team delivered the news. Everyone heard that Lord Xiong and the others had not come back yet, and the team might not continue on the road today. They exclaimed happily. rang out one after another.
On the way to exile, it was not easy to rest for half a day. Many people leaned under the roots of the tree with their eyes closed and their hands clasped together to make a wish:
"God lets Master Xiong and the others come back later." "
The escorting officers, soldiers and government officials found that today's prisoners were much easier to manage than in previous days. Most of them followed the orders of the officers obediently. There were fewer troublemakers, and the camp was much quieter in the afternoon.
Xie Wuying carefully walked around in a circle, then turned back to Mrs. I’m not leaving.”
Mrs. Xie sat on the ground and listened to Xie Wuying's words, "Have you asked Mr. Chai Hou, or has Chai come in?"
"I asked Mr. Chai, and he said that hundreds of households are waiting for bears. Come back, sir."
Mrs. Xie nodded slightly and said in a low voice: "It seems to be pretty good."
Ms. Zhou handed over a glass of water, "Mom, drink. Get some water. It’s okay if we don’t leave for now. We can rest a little longer.”
“It’s good to have a rest.” Mrs. God protects me, this child Yuchuan should be fine.”
Old Madam Xie, who had been comforting the other female relatives, didn’t see her grandson Xie Yuchuan come back after walking for so long. She felt relieved and still couldn’t help but think about him. 's safety.
After Xie Wuying finished speaking, she went to find Xie Wenjie and the others.
Mrs. Xie was here with women and children, and Ms. Zhou was chatting with her mother-in-law, Mrs. Xie, as usual.
Second Mrs. Xie, Mrs. Zhang, was lying on her side with her head propped up, watching Ruan Shi coaxing her children. Xie Jiarui had just eaten and was still not sleepy, so she was pestering her mother, Ruan Shi, to tell stories.
Ms. Zhang was not sleepy and was listening to what M. Ruan said.
She was wearing a little thin clothing, and Mrs. Ruan was worried that she would catch cold, so she pulled out a thick dress from the bundle given to her by her parents, spread it out and gently covered Mrs. Zhang.
“Second Aunt, please pay attention to your health.”
Ms. Zhang’s eyes felt hot, and a sour feeling surged into her nose for a moment. She quietly suppressed it, and instead deliberately teased M. Ruan in a relaxed tone. : "Yuting family, please tell a story quickly, Second Aunt is waiting for you."
Ruan's cheeks turned red and she said angrily: "Second Aunt, don't laugh at me."
The little Xie Jiarui, between the two of them, raised his head for a while to look at his mother Ruan on the left, and then raised his neck to look at Zhang on the right. A pair of big, confused eyes flickered, not big enough to look like stars. Lying in Zhang's arms.
Ms. Zhang asked in a sweet voice: "Does my second uncle and grandma also like to listen to my mother telling stories?"
Ms. Zhang looked lovingly at the youngest son of the Xie family lying in her arms. , gently pinched the little baby's soft cheeks, and teased him: "Yes, my second uncle and grandma also like obedient books. Jia Rui urged your mother to speak quickly."
" Mother, please speak quickly!" Xiao Jiarui was really obedient.
An old man and a young man accompany each other, and the wind rustles through the treetops.
Ruan looked at her family in front of her, her heart softened unconsciously, she thought about it seriously and said, "Then let me tell you a story that your grandmother told you when you were a child."
"What's it like?" Xiao Jiarui's eyes sparkled.
Mr. Zhang has a smile on her lips and kind eyes.
Ruan pursed her lips and smiled, "The story of a little fairy who was too lazy to study and went down to earth to take the exam as a scholar."
The starlight in Xiao Jiarui's eyes suddenly went out. "Huh?"
Ms. Zhang laughed loudly, "You are so bad."
Ms. Ruan felt worried when she saw Mrs. Zhang laughing heartily. I also let go a lot, I really hope my second aunt can always be like this.
On the other side, Xie Zhen, accompanying his mother Shen, was sewing and mending everyone's clothes.
Ms. Shen’s temperament is not as calm as her eldest sister-in-law Zhou, nor as cheerful and unrestrained as her second sister-in-law Zhang. She is a typical lady who follows the rules at home and follows her family’s elders to learn how to care for their husbands and raise their children. When you get married, your life's ideal is to become a qualified wife of a noble family, to be your husband and raise your children for the rest of your life.
I wonder if she lived too well and peacefully in the first half of her life. When she reached middle age, her husband was gone and she had no children. The most important thing for a woman to rely on in this world was gone.
Mrs. Shen survived the most difficult period in a daze, remembering Xie Zhen, the only daughter Mr. Xie left for her, and survived the great sadness.
With her daughter still there, she couldn't let Xie Zhen, the daughter of her daughter, have no family to return to.
With a sigh of relief, Shen came back to her senses. Even though she knew she was going to be exiled, she still thought in her heart that Xie Zhen was lucky to get married.
However, the dealer actually divorced his girl!
Ms. Shen, who has always been gentle and gentle, hated the banker very much in her heart. As a mother, she could not stand her children being treated poorly by others.
Xie Zhen chased the exiled team. Every time she saw the calm and unconcerned look on her daughter's face, her heart was as sharp as a knife.
Xie Zhen and Shen have been mother and daughter for more than 20 years, how can they not understand their own mother.
I am afraid that she will think too much, so whenever I have free time, I will talk to my mother to divert her attention.
But when mother and daughter talk, there is always a time when they have finished talking, or there are some topics that she doesn’t want to talk about anymore.
Just find some things that the two of them can do to pass the time. Xie Wuying came back from a walk today and told her that she might not be able to leave in the afternoon.
Xie Zhen suggested to Mrs. Shen, "Mom, how about we sew some clothes?"
With her daughter by her side, Mrs. Shen would be happy no matter what she did.
Xie Zhen dug out needles and threads and repaired the holes in everyone's body. Shen was naturally handy and liked such quiet work. She felt calm both physically and mentally while doing it.
Xie Zhen looked up from time to time to look at his mother, who was no longer young. Occasionally, he stretched out his hand to tuck Shen's fallen hair behind her ears, and gently wiped the fallen leaves from her mother's head with her fingertips.
"Mom, don't worry, dad is gone, I will protect you."
Shen bit off the needle and thread in her hand, raised her head and looked at her daughter Xie Zhen.
A gentle smile appeared on his face, "Okay, we will be companions from now on."
Xie Zhen smiled with satisfaction.
"Mom, we will definitely reach Liaozhou safely."
"Well, for sure, Liulang is here."
Xie Zhen nodded fiercely, "Yes, with the sixth brother here, our family will be safe."
Ms. Shen put down her needle and thread and looked at her mother-in-law, Mrs. Xie, who was talking to her sister-in-law not far away. Suddenly, He whispered to Xie Zhen: "Zhen'er, let me tell you, after the Xie family's spirit appeared, I saw your grandmother crying secretly several times."
Xie Zhen was a little surprised.
Ms. Shen sighed softly, "The family god has not left, and my mother is the happiest in her heart."
