The pony carriage had just left the county town and was on its way home. Fengying said it was still early and wanted to get out of the car and take a look, so everyone followed her. After slowly getting out of the car, Yu Chenglong supported his wife and walked to the ditch under Main Road L.
"Since I've been sick, I haven't gone out of the house to take a look. Winter is coming soon, everything is yellow, and there is no life. When I was in the mountains, there were green trees in winter, and there was still green underneath the heavy snow.
It's almost a good time for hunting, but we can only live in winter. When I think of hunting in the mountains, I feel like grass has grown in my heart. What a refreshing and free day it was! "
Fengying said weakly, her hunter-like eyes searching the ground. It seemed that she was reminiscing about her past life. Yu Chenglong could understand his daughter-in-law's mood at the moment, recalling and longing for the unrestrained free life in the past. This is a mentality shared by patients.
Yes, that Orion daughter who once galloped all over the mountains and plains, that wild and unfettered youth, the woman who dared to love and hate, is now so weak and devastated by the disease!
It is true that time is merciless and worldly events are unpredictable. Yu Chenglong mourns for his daughter-in-law! However, the daughter-in-law Fengying did not raise her head to see her husband's expression. She still carefully searched everything on the ground, looking for the green color she hoped to see.
Several dandelions commonly known as Granny Ding came into Fengying's eyes, which aroused her excitement: "Look, Granny Ding! Oh, there are some over there, there are quite a few. Come quickly, get your knife, let's dig some out and eat them with sauce. .”
Mother-in-law Ding, who was slightly purple and crimson, was crawling among the withered weeds, shyly but stubbornly showing the tenacity of life. It's hard to find if you don't search carefully. As if looking for hope, everyone followed Fengying's instructions and bent down to search and dig on the ground.
"Okay, that's enough, stop digging. Let them continue to live. This little thing turns green as soon as the snow turns. It is the first plant to come alive here. Look, next spring there will be an overwhelming yellow flower here again. Bees will also be the first to eat their nectar."
Fengying squatted in front of a mother-in-law tree, and touched her gently with trembling hands, as if she wanted to give it some warmth, or maybe she was naturally showing her mother-like care and love, but what made people feel more It is her desire, nostalgia and regret for life.
After returning from the city, Fengying's condition gradually improved. He Laogui went to Dr. Bai to grab some more medicine. In this way, after more than ten days, Fengying was able to go to the fields and take care of herself, which made everyone very happy.
"Maybe my illness can be cured. God has eyes! Jackie Chan, just come back and see me. If you are anxious, just leave. It's not safe to stay at home."
Fengying saw that Yu Chenglong was a little worried about living at home, so she persuaded Yu Chenglong with concern, saying that she could leave if she was in a hurry, because her condition had improved greatly, so don't worry too much about it after leaving, as the condition would get better.
"I can't stay at home for too long, for fear of injuring my family. There are still many things to do, but no matter how anxious I am, I still have to wait for you to be nice again before I can leave with peace of mind."
Yu Chenglong knew that his wife was still thinking about his anti-Japanese cause, so he persuaded her to leave when her condition improved somewhat. However, Yu Chenglong was still a little worried. He knew that his wife's condition was far from normal.
"Let's go, take Monroe with you this time. She has sent her children to the city, and it is not safe to stay here for a long time."
Fengying still persuaded Yu Chenglong to leave earlier, and she had to take Monroe with her this time, because it was not convenient for Monroe to live here for a long time. It happened that Yu Chenglong came back and took her away to arrange a safer place.
"I'm going to let her go to Harbin to hide first. It's too hard in the mountains. Let's wait until after this winter."
Yu Chenglong told his daughter-in-law Fengying that he also had plans for Monroe's next step, and her daughter-in-law nodded in agreement. After Yu Chenglong finished talking to his wife, he asked Jiao Cheng to contact Bi Ming, saying that he would pick him up, and then they would go into the mountains to have a look.
Just when Yu Chenglong was about to leave home, his younger brother Sanyang suddenly came back. This made Yu Chenglong overjoyed, and Yu's mother was even more excited. Even Fengying, who was ill, was also happy from ear to ear.
"Why are you back? Are you okay out there? Tell me quickly!" Yu Chenglong hugged his younger brother, patted his shoulder, and carefully looked at his younger brother whom he hadn't seen for many years: "You have really grown up, and he is better than me." Strong, like a man!"
"Reporting to the Councilor of the Black Province, Captain Yu Guoyang of the Secret Service Company of the 17th Mixed Brigade of the Third War Zone of Manchukuo salutes you!"
The younger brother Sanyang gave Yu Chenglong a military salute in a serious manner, and then hugged his brother's neck like he did when he was a child, and kept making out, completely ignoring others to say hello seriously.
"These two brothers are not serious when they get together. Come and sit on the kang!"
Mother pulled Sanyang away from Yu Chenglong's arms and asked him to sit on the kang. Sanyang took the opportunity to sit next to his sister-in-law. He still wanted to check on his sister-in-law's condition first, after all, this was the most important thing.
He came back this time not specifically to visit his sister-in-law, because he didn't know that her sister-in-law was seriously ill before. Now that he knows, of course he has to inquire in detail. This is also to express his care for his sister-in-law, because he is also very homesick.
Hearing that his sister-in-law's condition had improved significantly, Sanyang was happy for his sister-in-law. He felt that her sister-in-law would get better soon, and asked her to eat more delicious food. His sister-in-law also eagerly asked about Sanyang's current situation.
"Today is a great event. It's not easy for you two to meet at home. Tell me, Sanyang, where are you now? My sister-in-law has been thinking about you!"
Fengying sat up and moved Sanyang into the kang, letting Sanyang get closer so that she could see more clearly. So Sanyang leaned closer to his sister-in-law and told her his current situation. Of course, he also told his mother, brother and everyone else.
"Our team is currently stationed in Binzhou County, which is only more than 170 miles away. We have been stationed here for almost half a year, and we haven't come back to see it. Now that we have stabilized, we will just come back."
Sanyang told his family that the 17th Mixed Brigade of the Third Theater of Manchukuo, where he was stationed, had been deployed here from near Xingjing for almost half a year. Because it had not stabilized before, it was only now that he took the time to go home and take a look.
Of course, what Sanyang said was not entirely true. It was mainly because he heard that his brother Yu Chenglong was out of danger. He wanted to tell his family the news as soon as possible, so he came back in a hurry.
Of course, Sanyang also misses home. After all, he hasn’t been home for nearly three years. Although he knows that everyone in his family is still safe, he still comes back to take a look in person, which makes him feel at ease. His mother has been worried after traveling thousands of miles!
