Reborn Sanitary
Chapter 82
Taking the train to the car, at [-] o'clock in the afternoon the next day, Xu Tao returned to his hometown where he had been away for a long time. When he saw Xu Yan's house from a distance, Xu Tao no longer had the urgency to go home. Slow, but no matter how slow the pace is, no matter how long the journey is, there will be an end. No matter how complicated Xu Tao's mood is, he still walks to the gate of Xu Yan's house.
Seeing the open door, Xu Tao took a deep breath, gently pushed it open, stood in the yard and shouted, "Sister, brother-in-law, I'm back."
Xu Tao's shout made Xu Yan, who was chatting with the girl in the room, stunned for a moment, then jumped off the kang in surprise, ran outside, opened the curtain and saw a simple luggage Xu Tao in military uniform, Xu Yan smiled and narrowed his eyes for a moment, no matter how he saw Xu Tao, he was pleasing to the eye.
He strode up to meet Xu Tao and grabbed Xu Tao's arm, "Why didn't you say hello when you came back?"
Xu Tao forced a smile, didn't answer, just looked around in the yard, "Where is Xiaorui?"
Xu Tao's words made Xu Yan stare, "Where are you going to school, when you don't go to school, go into the room, Tao, my sister told you, it just so happens that the girl is in the room, take a look."
Xu Yan's words made Xu Tao, who had raised his legs, stop immediately, and stuffed the luggage in Xu Yan's hands, "Sister, I'm going out to buy something." After speaking, Xu Yan left without waiting for Xu Yan's reaction, and walked out of Xu Yan's house for a long time Only then did Xu Tao stop, feeling more and more heavy. Xu Tao knew that he really couldn't delay any longer.
And since yesterday, Meng Zhan, who knew that Xu Tao was temporarily transferred out to participate in the medical training, looked at the sick man in front of him with a face full of displeasure, and secretly blamed Zhou Wei for pulling Xu Tao out even though he knew he was injured. Reluctantly eating the tasteless sick meal, thinking about the sauced elbow made by Xu Tao yesterday, thinking about it, the tasteless sick meal was even more unbearable, and turned to look at Wang Jin, "Where is Xu Tao going?" sky?"
Wang Jin rolled his eyes, and asked seven times, "A week." After speaking, he winked at Chen Guangfa who was beside him, and Chen Guangfa snickered. Taking it away, Meng Zhan asked over and over again, although it made them see enough jokes, it was also annoying enough.
Xu Tao wandered outside for a while, and looked at the time. It was less than three o'clock. Xu Tao was afraid that Xu Yan would stay at home and wait. After thinking about it, he turned and walked to the old house. After half an hour, he returned to the old house. Opening the far door, walking into the yard, looking at the tidy yard, Xu Tao had nostalgia in his eyes, walked to the small earthen house, took out the key from under the window, opened the door, pushed the door and walked in, it was still the same old house, although It's not pretty, but this is the place where I grew up, no matter how bad it is, it's my home. Sitting by the stove, Xu Tao pulled the dry branches behind him and carefully set the stove on fire. When the fire got big, Xu Tao Walking into the room and sitting on the edge of the kang, sitting in a daze, Xu Tao wanted to suffer from the war. Although he only left for a day, Xu Tao just wanted to suffer from the war.
I don't know how long it took, Xu Tao came back to his senses and found that he smiled bitterly after being in a daze, and wiped his face vigorously. He felt that the humidity in the house was not so heavy. Xu Tao walked to the stove pit and looked at the fire inside. A little bit of wood stumbled with sparks, and the charred wood was useless. After closing the shutter, Xu Tao stood up and looked at the time. It was five o'clock. Xu Tao sighed, stood up and walked out of the house to lock the door Lock it up and leave the old house.
It took an hour before Xu Tao moved back to Xu Yan's house, walked into the gate and shouted, Xu Tao first saw a small cannonball rushing out, and then saw his brother-in-law walking out with a smile on his face. Walking to Xu Tao who was holding Wang Rui, he said in a low voice, like a thief, "Your sister is angry."
The smile on Xu Tao's face paused for a moment, and turned into a wry smile, and Wang Rui also put his arms around Xu Tao's neck, imitating Wang Guizhu and lying next to Xu Tao's ear, "Uncle, my mother was angry. She waved a stick in the afternoon and said You want to spank when you come back, let me tell you, my mother hurts from beating someone."
Wang Rui's childish words let Xu Tao's nervous heart slowly relax, he hugged Wang Rui and threw it, and looked at Wang Rui who was giggling and narrowed his eyes, "Xiao Rui, if mother beats uncle, you Remember to save uncle."
Wang Rui, who was happy to be thrown, nodded his head and patted his chest, "Uncle, don't worry, I will definitely save you."
Xu Tao smiled and followed the smiling Wang Guizhu into the room. Just as he walked into the back room, he saw Xu Yan sitting on the top of the kang with a heavy face and staring at him. Xu Tao put down Wang Rui and rubbed his nose uncomfortably, and smiled To Xu Yan's side, "Sister, I'm back."
Xu Yan snorted twice, "I'm not blind, so what are you doing?"
Xu Tao looked at Xu Yan and knew that Xu Yan was not really angry. He sat next to Xu Yan and said, "Go back to the old house, sister, our old house is too old, you go to suffer in winter, or I will pay to clean it up. , no matter whether you live there or not, it is also our home."
When Xu Tao mentioned the old house, Xu Yan's stern face relaxed, and he shook his head, "Forget it, your brother-in-law also said to clean it up, why do you clean it up? No one lives there. If you come back to get married, sister will pay for it. You can build five big tile-roofed houses, but are you coming back? You see, I caught up with you in the afternoon and I want you to see her girl, you can run faster than a rabbit."
Talking and talking about this matter, Xu Yan remembered that she entered the room with a face full of embarrassment and didn't know what to say to the girl. Fortunately, she just had this thought and hadn't formally found a middleman. big.
Xu Tao smiled and didn't answer, Xu Yan turned her head to look at Xu Tao, "I'm not coming back soon, I'm waiting for you to eat."
Xu Tao rubbed his stomach on purpose, "Sister, I'm really hungry. Our unit is busy these days, so I haven't eaten well. Look, am I losing weight?"
Xu Yan felt distressed after all, and reached out her hand to touch Xu Tao's face that was not thin and nodded in agreement, "I said that I think you are much thinner when I see you today, and your brother-in-law even killed a chicken in the afternoon. I stayed up for several hours. It's messy, eat more at night, by the way, how many days are you staying at home?"
Xu Tao gestured with five fingers, "Five days." The vacation Xu Tao said made Xu Yan frowned, "Your army is really picky, and you will give five days off if you work hard."
While talking, he went down to the kang and asked Wang Guizhu to put the table for dinner. The ready-made meals were served quickly. Xu Tao lowered his head and ate quickly. Xu Yan was busy greeting his son and younger brother, and kept talking about the girl’s family. , What a handsome man, what a good character, the more Xu Yan said, the more Xu Tao, who bowed his head to eat, felt more and more frustrated, as if there was a burst of anger in his heart, he resisted to finish the meal, and stayed with Wang Rui for a while. After going to bed, Xu Tao calmly sat on the edge of the kang.
Xu Yan sat next to Xu Tao, and mentioned the girl while washing her feet. Xu Tao looked down at Xu Yan who was washing her feet.
"Sister, I have a partner." Xu Tao's soft words made Xu Yan, who was bent over, froze. She straightened up and stared at Xu Tao with wide eyes, "Is there a partner?"
Xu Tao nodded slowly. For some reason, Wang Guizhu, who was sitting opposite the siblings, suddenly felt that something big was about to happen. Xu Yan might not have noticed, but Wang Guizhu, who was sitting opposite Xu Tao, could clearly see that something was wrong with Xu Tao. Look Xu Yan looked at Xu Tao again, Wang Guizhu stood up and closed the door.
Xu Tao's affirmation immediately made Xu Yan feel a little surprised, have a date?So it's the city girl?With such thoughts in mind, Xu Yan stopped washing her feet, and went to Xu Tao's side after wiping off the kang, looking at Xu Tao excitedly, "How old are you? Where do you live? How do you look? How do you treat me?" ?'
A series of questions made Xu Tao pause for a moment. Seeing Xu Yan whose face was full of excitement and eyes sparkling, Xu Tao gritted his teeth, "32, 82 meters, the home is from our province, and the growth is fine."
Xu Tao's answer froze the excitement on Xu Yan's face, and she couldn't recover for a while, her mind froze completely. At the age of 32, Xu Yan turned her head to look at Wang Guizhu in a daze, "Xiao Tao meant 32, right?"
Wang Guizhu was also a little silly, and nodded in a daze, "It's 32."
Xu Yan blinked her eyes and lowered her head to calculate how much older than Xu Tao was at the age of 32. It took her a while to figure it out. When the information was conveyed accurately at the age of seven, Xu Yan stood up abruptly and stared at him. Xiang Xutao, "I don't agree. When people are looking for a partner, they always find a girl who is younger than you. Why do you want to find an older one? The older one is fine, but it can't be so much older. Female juniors pack gold suits, female seniors five Old mother Sai, you are missing a mother, find a mother to come back and take care of you."
Xu Yan's yell made Xu Tao clenched his fists tightly, "It's not a woman."
The simple and clear four words made Xu Yan's brain explode. Standing on the kang, looking at Xu Tao who was sitting on the edge of the kang with his head bowed, his hands began to tremble a little, and he smiled dryly, "Xiao, Xiaotao, ah, That, that, what, my sister didn’t, I didn’t hear clearly.”
Xu Tao slowly raised his head and looked at Xu Yan's obviously changed face and forced disbelief in his eyes, Xu Tao began to feel pain in his heart, gritted his teeth and said again, "It's not a woman, my partner is a man."
Xu Tao's words of affirmation again made Xu Yan's brain buzzing, her heart twitched, and her body swayed unconsciously. Yan, but was immediately pushed away by Xu Yan, Xu Yan who pushed Xu Tao away, staggered, supported the stomp behind him, stared at Xu Tao with red eyes, and gritted his teeth every word, "Male?"
Xu Tao's heavy but unhesitating nod made Xu Yan anxious. She felt that there were stars in front of her eyes. She rushed to Xu Tao with one step, raised her hand, and slapped Xu Tao's right face hard. Xu Tao was stunned, and also Xu Yan was dumbfounded. With trembling lips, he looked at Xu Tao's rapidly swollen cheeks.
Xu Yan's slap also stunned Wang Guizhu, who was startled by the news, and Wang Guizhu stood up abruptly, rushed to the edge of the kang and jumped onto the kang, grabbing Xu Yan's arm, "You What are you doing, why are you beating Xiaotao?"
Wang Guizhu's cry made Xu Yan cry suddenly. The tears seemed to break the faucet of the gate, and they kept pouring out. Looking at Xu Yan who was crying, Xu Tao's eyes were red. Xu Tao knew that Xu Yan was really sad. All these years Except since they abandoned their siblings when they were young, this is the second time Xu Yan shed tears so silently.
For Xu Yan, Xu Tao has deep feelings. It can be said that Xu Yan is synonymous with home in Xu Tao's heart. Without Xu Yan, there is no home. Xu Tao feels distressed for hurting Xu Yan's heart. Digging out his heart, otherwise he would not be able to leave Mengzhan in this life.
With such a mood, Xu Tao came back without hesitation. He mustered up the courage to have a showdown with Xu Yan. He knew it was the same thing, but when he faced Xu Yan who was bursting into tears, Xu Tao realized that this kind of pain seems to be suffocating. .
Wang Guizhu carefully supported Xu Yan to sit on the kang, leaned on the quilt, stood up and walked to Xu Tao's side, and pulled Xu Tao, "Tao, sit down first, tell brother-in-law what's going on?"
Xu Tao sat down with sobs, and in a trembling tone, he explained the relationship between him and Meng Zhan in front of Wang Guizhu and Xu Yan. Finally, Xu Tao looked at Wang Guizhu with bloodshot eyes, "Brother-in-law, I can't do without him." , the mixed feelings of these years are no longer pure love. If it was possible, I would not go this way, but I can't do it now. I love him, it is true love, and I want to spend my life with him .”
The firmness in Xu Tao's tone and the persistence in Xu Tao's words made Xu Yan close her eyes in pain, raised her trembling fingers and pointed to the door, "Go, Xu Tao, you are old and disobedient, sister can't control you You, I don't want to see you again, let's go, leave my house, I, Xu Yan, just pretend it's not you, this, this, brother, brother."
With tears and decisive words, Xu Tao turned pale in an instant. Xu Tao looked at Xu Yan with a pale face. Xu Tao couldn't help shivering when Xu Yan closed his eyes. He pushed Wang Guizhu who was standing in front of him, Climbed to Xu Yan's side, grabbed Xu Yan's arm, trembling, "Sister, you don't want me anymore?"
Xu Yan didn't open her eyes and didn't speak, she just closed her eyes and shed tears silently. Xu Tao was anxious and shook Xu Yan vigorously, "Sister, open your eyes, sister, don't want me, open your eyes and look at me, Look at me."
But no matter how Xu Tao swayed and said Xu Yan just didn't open his eyes and didn't speak, but shed tears quietly, Xu Tao looked at Wang Guizhu with timidity and panic at a loss, "Brother-in-law, please persuade my sister, please persuade me My sister, brother-in-law, I beg you, come over and persuade me."
The stubbornness on Xu Yan's face and the pleading in Xu Tao's eyes made Wang Guizhu sigh deeply, and moved between the two of them. Wang Guizhu carefully pulled out Xu Yan's arm that was caught by Xu Tao, and pulled Xu Tao, "Go back first, Let your sister calm down."
Xu Tao shook his head vigorously, but didn't move. He just knelt beside Xu Yan, waiting and praying. Xu Tao, who was beside him with bloodshot eyes and a haggard expression, felt pain in his heart, but Xu Yan could not forgive Xu Tao.
Reluctantly sitting up, looking at Xu Tao who was full of pleading eyes, "Xu Tao, let's go, leave my house, I don't want to see you, and don't come back in the future."
After Xu Yan finished speaking, she grabbed a big quilt and covered her head, covered her tightly and turned her back without looking at Xu Tao. Xu Tao felt his eyes darken, and a layer of cold sweat broke out on his spine, and he looked at Xu Tao in a daze. Looking at Yan Juejue's back, there was only one thought in his heart, "Xu Yan doesn't want me anymore, sister doesn't want him anymore."
This thought hit Xu Tao's heart over and over again, and the suffocating pain hit again. Xu Tao couldn't help but swayed, sat down on the edge of the kang, and called softly, "Sister." Facing his back, he didn't even move.
Xu Tao didn't know how long he sat there in a daze, then slowly turned around and moved to the edge of the kang, put on his shoes unsteadily, and stumbled away from Xu Yan's house with the luggage on the ground.
In the early morning, the sky was just a little pale, and there was no one on the street. The empty street seemed to have been hollowed out. Xu Tao felt distressed. The bursts of darkness in front of him made Xu Tao support the wall for a while before lifting the heavy weight. The pace walked to the old house.
One deep foot and one shallow foot, Xu Tao didn't know how long he walked before returning to his hometown, and Xu Tao didn't know if he met anyone along the way. After finally returning to the old house and getting the key, Xu Tao poked the house several times before he managed to open the house. The door opened, bumped into the door frame and hit the stove, in the collision, Xu Tao fell on the kang all at once.
With a bang, Xu Tao hit the kang with a muffled sound. Lying on the kang, Xu Tao burst into tears, and secretly told Xu Tao's pain and sorrow along his temples in this hut where no one was wet.
But Wang Guizhu was just thinking about staying up all night, giving the rival siblings a hot meal, and when he came back, he found that Xu Tao was gone. Looking at Xu Yan who was lying on the kang with a big quilt covering his head, Wang Guizhu frowned. Brows, Wang Guizhu doesn't understand Xu Tao's feelings, in his opinion, only a man and a woman are serious life, what are these two men called?But Wang Guizhu also understands Xu Tao. Xu Tao and Xu Yan are actually the same in essence. brother in law.
However, the disappearing Xu Tao still made Wang Guizhu frowned. Where did he drive people away this early in the morning? Thinking of this, Wang Guizhu got on the kang and grabbed the quilt with his hand, "Daughter-in-law, the child's mother, don't sleep yet!" , get angry and sleep sick, where is Xiaotao?"
The quilt was pulled down, revealing Xu Yan's face full of tears. Such Xu Yan made Wang Guizhu feel distressed and couldn't bear to blame him. He held Xu Yan in his arms and patted Xu Yan's back comfortingly. This pat, Xu Yan wow Crying, crying for disappointment to Xu Tao, crying for the distress of Xu Tao, crying for the injustice of fate, crying for the grievance in my heart, crying for the fear of the future.
Xu Yan's crying made Wang Guizhu pat Xu Yan's back heartbrokenly. No one knows Xu Yan better than Wang Guizhu. Over the years, because of Xu Yan's outstanding appearance, because of his disability, and because of the family's earning livelihood, it is actually gossip. Quite a few, especially last year when Yanzi's mother came back suddenly, and Wang Guirong, who was not serious at first glance, came back with heavy makeup.
In the past few days, Wang Guirong, who came from home every day, made Xu Yan lose face in the brigade. What he said was that the old lady had no money. Whether you recognize it or not, you were born by me. Now that life is better, borrow some money By the way, I asked for Xu Tao's address. No matter how Xu Yan refused, the rumors quickly spread throughout the entire brigade. In this way, someone still said that the girl is like a mother, and Xu Yan will definitely run away with others in the future, because Xu Yan secretly cried for a long time about this, but her mouth grew on other people, and she couldn't stop it. During that time , The swallows dare not even come out.
Xu Yan, who was crying bitterly, had deep doubts in her heart. Is it true that children are like their parents? Otherwise, why would Xu Tao become bad? The irresponsible parents, thinking of the rumors and rumors that did not stop until this year, Xu Yan felt very aggrieved in her heart. The more this happened, the more Xu Yan felt that she could not forgive Xu Tao, and even regretted it. If you don't go to the army, you will definitely not have such a thing if you stay at home.
In the next few days, Xu Tao cheered up and went to see Xu Yan every day, but Xu Yan just didn’t see her. As long as Xu Tao came, Xu Yan would leave or hide in the house. The five-day holiday came in a blink of an eye. , Standing again at the door of the back room where Xu Yan hid, Xu Tao looked at the closed door with a haggard face.
Gently knocked on the door, "Sister, I'm going back, take good care of yourself, I'll come back to see you when I have time." After Xu Tao finished speaking, he stood quietly for a while, and there was no sound in the silent room. This kind of refusal made Xu Tao's eyes red again, and he turned to look at Wang Guizhu who was standing aside to help call the door. Xu Tao burst into tears, and quickly raised his hand to cover his eyes for a while, Xu Tao wiped his face and put his hand down, "Brother-in-law , help me persuade my sister more, I will come back when I have time."
Wang Guizhu looked at Xu Tao whose cheeks were a little dimpled, and sighed secretly in his heart, "Tao, don't be angry with your sister, your sister is not easy, let your sister think about it, your sister can think about it."
Xu Tao nodded with a sob, and left Xu Yan's house in three steps. He stood at the door and looked at Xu Tao's reluctant back. Wang Guizhu was a little angry. It was not easy for Xu Yan, but it was not easy for Xiao Tao. After suffering a lot, but when Wang Guizhu turned back to the yard, he saw Xu Yan who was quietly standing on the ladder crying, and Wang Guizhu was discouraged all of a sudden. The siblings shook their heads, and Wang Guizhu went to the ladder to support him. The ladder, and carefully helped Xu Yan, who was crying so hard that she couldn't straighten up, down the ladder and sent her back to the house.
The next afternoon, when Xu Tao returned to the army, he asked Zhou Wei to sell his leave first. Looking at Xu Tao, who had blisters around his mouth, black eyes, and obviously lost weight, Zhou Wei felt a little bit in his heart, knowing that it was a mess. Wei just patted Xu Tao's shoulder comfortingly and said nothing.
Xu Tao carried his luggage and walked home slowly. When he finally got home, he opened the door. Xu Tao lost all strength. He closed the door reluctantly. up.
Counting on Xu Tao's return today, Meng Zhan cleaned up the house early, and after getting up in the morning with Meng Zhan who was discharged from the hospital yesterday, he went to the door to watch and wait endlessly.
It was four o'clock in the afternoon when Xu Tao hadn't come back. Disappointed, Meng Zhan thought that the training had been prolonged, so he went back to his study and took out his military textbooks to read. All of a sudden, his eyes lit up, he strode out, looked at the empty living room, Meng Zhan was stunned for a moment, thought he had heard wrong, laughed at himself, turned around and was about to go to the house, suddenly, Meng Zhan felt There seemed to be a person sitting on the table, Meng Zhan's heart skipped a beat, he quickly walked to the door, and saw Xu Tao who was sitting on the ground leaning against the door and weeping quietly.
Xu Tao, who was silently crying and completely devoid of energy, caused Meng Zhan's expression to change suddenly. He rushed to Xu Tao in a big stride, and hugged Xu Tao, "Xiao Tao, Xiao Tao, what's the matter?"
Xu Tao slowly opened his eyes and saw Meng Zhan with beads of sweat on his forehead full of anxiety, he pulled the corners of his mouth into a wry smile, "Meng Zhan, my sister doesn't want me anymore."
After Xu Tao finished speaking, he curled up his body distressedly and burst into tears. Before Meng Zhan had time to think about it, he took Xu Tao with one hand and strode back to the bedroom, put Xu Tao down, and Meng Zhan half-lyed beside Xu Tao, holding Xu Tao carefully and constantly Caressing Xu Tao's back, kissing Xu Tao's forehead again and again, on the center of the head, comforting and coaxing.
I don't know how long it took, when Xu Tao fell asleep with the occasional twitch, Meng Zhan carefully covered Xu Tao with a quilt, walked out of the bedroom with a gloomy face, and called Zhou Wei directly to ask what Xu Tao had been doing for a week.
After hanging up the phone, Meng Zhan's expression was no longer gloomy, but he was deeply distressed. This fool, how could he go back by himself? Although Meng Zhan didn't go back with him, it is completely conceivable that Xu Tao must have spoken directly without even turning a corner. Straight up.
Sighing, Meng Zhan returned to the bedroom with a deep heartache and a little guilt, carefully lying beside Xu Tao and hugging Xu Tao, gently stroking Xu Tao's back that occasionally twitched, comforting silently.
Perhaps because he knew that he had returned to the last safe haven, Xu Tao, who was physically and mentally exhausted, did not open his eyes until noon the next day. When he saw Meng Zhan with eyes full of love, Xu Tao's eyes were slightly red, and he stretched out his arms to hold Meng Zhan, and he did not want to worry about anything. Don't say anything, just hug tightly, Meng Zhan knew the pain in Xu Tao's heart, his eyes flashed with distress, he hugged him tightly, and patted him lightly from time to time.
Slowly, Xu Tao's mood stabilized slightly, and slowly, with a little choking, he said Xu Yan not wanting him. After speaking, the tears in the circles of Xu Tao's eyes made Meng Zhan feel distressed, but at this time, he could not say that he felt distressed, but could only encourage him. , and based on Meng Zhan's intuitive understanding of Xu Yan, Xu Yan must be angry, but as long as Xu Tao doesn't give up, Xu Yan will accept it one day. Thinking of this, Meng Zhan smiled slightly, stretched out his big hand and wiped Xu Tao's face Eye sockets, "Okay, okay, what a big deal, think about it, if my sister really doesn't want you, would he dare to send you off as a brother-in-law who listens to my sister's words? Besides, it's normal to be angry. Sister calls, no matter whether he answers or not, you just tell her about your performance and what happened during this time, and after a long time, just let me calm down."
Xu Tao looked up from Meng Zhan's arms with red eyes, with a little uncertainty and strong expectation in his eyes, "Will it be?"
Meng Zhan nodded affirmatively, "I will." Xu Tao pulled the corner of his mouth and hugged Meng Zhan's neck again, muttering in a low voice, "Yes, yes." The expectation and guilt in Xu Tao's words made Meng Zhan Zhan distressed and swayed gently.
Time passed day by day, one month, two months, one year, one and a half years, as long as Xu Tao stayed in the fifth camp, he would call Xu Yan once a week. Talking, although Xu Tao would be depressed for a whole day after every phone call, he would continue to repeat the actions of last week next week. At Yan's place, although he was called out every time, Meng Zhan still went there when he found the opportunity, visited the door again and again, and called one after another. Meng Zhan could see that Xu Yan's attitude was softening, but now there was a lack of a step or It can be said that there is a lack of an opportunity for Xu Tao and Xu Yan to meet again.
It took another half a year for this opportunity or step to come. In the middle of the night on November 2006, 11, Xu Tao, who had returned from a mission, had not waited to rest. He suddenly felt severe abdominal pain. He was sent to the hospital by Meng Zhan before he knew about it. It was acute appendicitis. Seeing Xu Tao who was not awake after the operation and was withdrawn from the operating room, Meng Zhan breathed a sigh of relief and suddenly felt that the opportunity had come. He looked at the time, at 26:05 in the morning, Meng Zhan took a look and his face was a little pale Xu Tao touched his chin, nodded secretly, turned and left the ward.
Xu Yan, who was still lying on the bed, was startled by the rapid ringing of the phone in the early morning, and kicked Wang Guizhu. Wang Guizhu crawled out of the bed with a smile, and went down to answer the phone. When the operation required someone from home, the phone in Wang Guizhu's hand fell to the ground with a bang due to the hasty voice and the shocking news.
Wang Guizhu's face suddenly changed and the dropped phone made Xu Yan feel that something was wrong, she got up suddenly, jumped off the kang and ran to the phone, picked up the phone and shouted "Hello."
When Meng Zhan heard that it was Xu Yan, he sighed deliberately, "Sister, I'm Meng Zhan, Xiaotao is in the hospital, just finished the operation, and is still in a coma, look..."
Before Meng Zhan finished speaking, Xu Yan burst into tears, and Xu Tao's bad thoughts were all in her mind, "Wait for me, let Xiaotao wait for me, I will go right away."
After speaking, no matter whether the other end of the phone heard or not, he dropped the phone and turned around to run outside. Xu Yan's shout brought Wang Guizhu back to his senses, and grabbed Xu Yan. Xu Yan struggled excitedly, "Let go, something happened to Xiaotao!" Blame me, blame me, tell me what's wrong with my brother, it's over, it's over, something must have happened to Xiaotao, otherwise Meng Zhan wouldn't be able to make a phone call."
Weeping while talking, about to run out while crying, and yelling to go to the army to the hospital, Wang Guizhu wiped his face and forcibly held Xu Yan, "I know, let's go right away, but you have to get dressed. "
Xu Yan agreed, and dressed while crying. After Wang Guizhu calmed down forcibly, he saw that Xu Yan couldn't even button his clothes with trembling hands, so he hurried forward to help put the clothes on, and then went to the kang from the kang cabinet. Putting all the family's money in the drawer, Wang Guizhu stood in the yard and called out to his parents who lived next door. After a brief explanation, the couple rushed to the garrison headquarters where Xu Tao was in a hurry.
And Meng Zhan, who hung up the phone, returned to the ward with a slight smile on his face, touched his little fool's cheek, and whispered in his ear, "Xiaotao, sister is here, Miss forgives you."
Xu Yan yelled when she threw the phone that she blamed me on Meng Zhan, but she could hear it clearly. Although I was a little sorry, but it’s been more than two years, enough is enough. After more than two years, Xu Tao often lost his mind, even when he laughed. They are very few, but I heard from Wang Guizhu that Xu Yan and Xu Tao are in the same situation, and this suffering for siblings should have come to an end.
The author has something to say:
The text is almost finished now, I will try to shrink it to a chapter and end it, maybe tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, no later than the day after tomorrow, and I will write the conclusion.
Seeing the open door, Xu Tao took a deep breath, gently pushed it open, stood in the yard and shouted, "Sister, brother-in-law, I'm back."
Xu Tao's shout made Xu Yan, who was chatting with the girl in the room, stunned for a moment, then jumped off the kang in surprise, ran outside, opened the curtain and saw a simple luggage Xu Tao in military uniform, Xu Yan smiled and narrowed his eyes for a moment, no matter how he saw Xu Tao, he was pleasing to the eye.
He strode up to meet Xu Tao and grabbed Xu Tao's arm, "Why didn't you say hello when you came back?"
Xu Tao forced a smile, didn't answer, just looked around in the yard, "Where is Xiaorui?"
Xu Tao's words made Xu Yan stare, "Where are you going to school, when you don't go to school, go into the room, Tao, my sister told you, it just so happens that the girl is in the room, take a look."
Xu Yan's words made Xu Tao, who had raised his legs, stop immediately, and stuffed the luggage in Xu Yan's hands, "Sister, I'm going out to buy something." After speaking, Xu Yan left without waiting for Xu Yan's reaction, and walked out of Xu Yan's house for a long time Only then did Xu Tao stop, feeling more and more heavy. Xu Tao knew that he really couldn't delay any longer.
And since yesterday, Meng Zhan, who knew that Xu Tao was temporarily transferred out to participate in the medical training, looked at the sick man in front of him with a face full of displeasure, and secretly blamed Zhou Wei for pulling Xu Tao out even though he knew he was injured. Reluctantly eating the tasteless sick meal, thinking about the sauced elbow made by Xu Tao yesterday, thinking about it, the tasteless sick meal was even more unbearable, and turned to look at Wang Jin, "Where is Xu Tao going?" sky?"
Wang Jin rolled his eyes, and asked seven times, "A week." After speaking, he winked at Chen Guangfa who was beside him, and Chen Guangfa snickered. Taking it away, Meng Zhan asked over and over again, although it made them see enough jokes, it was also annoying enough.
Xu Tao wandered outside for a while, and looked at the time. It was less than three o'clock. Xu Tao was afraid that Xu Yan would stay at home and wait. After thinking about it, he turned and walked to the old house. After half an hour, he returned to the old house. Opening the far door, walking into the yard, looking at the tidy yard, Xu Tao had nostalgia in his eyes, walked to the small earthen house, took out the key from under the window, opened the door, pushed the door and walked in, it was still the same old house, although It's not pretty, but this is the place where I grew up, no matter how bad it is, it's my home. Sitting by the stove, Xu Tao pulled the dry branches behind him and carefully set the stove on fire. When the fire got big, Xu Tao Walking into the room and sitting on the edge of the kang, sitting in a daze, Xu Tao wanted to suffer from the war. Although he only left for a day, Xu Tao just wanted to suffer from the war.
I don't know how long it took, Xu Tao came back to his senses and found that he smiled bitterly after being in a daze, and wiped his face vigorously. He felt that the humidity in the house was not so heavy. Xu Tao walked to the stove pit and looked at the fire inside. A little bit of wood stumbled with sparks, and the charred wood was useless. After closing the shutter, Xu Tao stood up and looked at the time. It was five o'clock. Xu Tao sighed, stood up and walked out of the house to lock the door Lock it up and leave the old house.
It took an hour before Xu Tao moved back to Xu Yan's house, walked into the gate and shouted, Xu Tao first saw a small cannonball rushing out, and then saw his brother-in-law walking out with a smile on his face. Walking to Xu Tao who was holding Wang Rui, he said in a low voice, like a thief, "Your sister is angry."
The smile on Xu Tao's face paused for a moment, and turned into a wry smile, and Wang Rui also put his arms around Xu Tao's neck, imitating Wang Guizhu and lying next to Xu Tao's ear, "Uncle, my mother was angry. She waved a stick in the afternoon and said You want to spank when you come back, let me tell you, my mother hurts from beating someone."
Wang Rui's childish words let Xu Tao's nervous heart slowly relax, he hugged Wang Rui and threw it, and looked at Wang Rui who was giggling and narrowed his eyes, "Xiao Rui, if mother beats uncle, you Remember to save uncle."
Wang Rui, who was happy to be thrown, nodded his head and patted his chest, "Uncle, don't worry, I will definitely save you."
Xu Tao smiled and followed the smiling Wang Guizhu into the room. Just as he walked into the back room, he saw Xu Yan sitting on the top of the kang with a heavy face and staring at him. Xu Tao put down Wang Rui and rubbed his nose uncomfortably, and smiled To Xu Yan's side, "Sister, I'm back."
Xu Yan snorted twice, "I'm not blind, so what are you doing?"
Xu Tao looked at Xu Yan and knew that Xu Yan was not really angry. He sat next to Xu Yan and said, "Go back to the old house, sister, our old house is too old, you go to suffer in winter, or I will pay to clean it up. , no matter whether you live there or not, it is also our home."
When Xu Tao mentioned the old house, Xu Yan's stern face relaxed, and he shook his head, "Forget it, your brother-in-law also said to clean it up, why do you clean it up? No one lives there. If you come back to get married, sister will pay for it. You can build five big tile-roofed houses, but are you coming back? You see, I caught up with you in the afternoon and I want you to see her girl, you can run faster than a rabbit."
Talking and talking about this matter, Xu Yan remembered that she entered the room with a face full of embarrassment and didn't know what to say to the girl. Fortunately, she just had this thought and hadn't formally found a middleman. big.
Xu Tao smiled and didn't answer, Xu Yan turned her head to look at Xu Tao, "I'm not coming back soon, I'm waiting for you to eat."
Xu Tao rubbed his stomach on purpose, "Sister, I'm really hungry. Our unit is busy these days, so I haven't eaten well. Look, am I losing weight?"
Xu Yan felt distressed after all, and reached out her hand to touch Xu Tao's face that was not thin and nodded in agreement, "I said that I think you are much thinner when I see you today, and your brother-in-law even killed a chicken in the afternoon. I stayed up for several hours. It's messy, eat more at night, by the way, how many days are you staying at home?"
Xu Tao gestured with five fingers, "Five days." The vacation Xu Tao said made Xu Yan frowned, "Your army is really picky, and you will give five days off if you work hard."
While talking, he went down to the kang and asked Wang Guizhu to put the table for dinner. The ready-made meals were served quickly. Xu Tao lowered his head and ate quickly. Xu Yan was busy greeting his son and younger brother, and kept talking about the girl’s family. , What a handsome man, what a good character, the more Xu Yan said, the more Xu Tao, who bowed his head to eat, felt more and more frustrated, as if there was a burst of anger in his heart, he resisted to finish the meal, and stayed with Wang Rui for a while. After going to bed, Xu Tao calmly sat on the edge of the kang.
Xu Yan sat next to Xu Tao, and mentioned the girl while washing her feet. Xu Tao looked down at Xu Yan who was washing her feet.
"Sister, I have a partner." Xu Tao's soft words made Xu Yan, who was bent over, froze. She straightened up and stared at Xu Tao with wide eyes, "Is there a partner?"
Xu Tao nodded slowly. For some reason, Wang Guizhu, who was sitting opposite the siblings, suddenly felt that something big was about to happen. Xu Yan might not have noticed, but Wang Guizhu, who was sitting opposite Xu Tao, could clearly see that something was wrong with Xu Tao. Look Xu Yan looked at Xu Tao again, Wang Guizhu stood up and closed the door.
Xu Tao's affirmation immediately made Xu Yan feel a little surprised, have a date?So it's the city girl?With such thoughts in mind, Xu Yan stopped washing her feet, and went to Xu Tao's side after wiping off the kang, looking at Xu Tao excitedly, "How old are you? Where do you live? How do you look? How do you treat me?" ?'
A series of questions made Xu Tao pause for a moment. Seeing Xu Yan whose face was full of excitement and eyes sparkling, Xu Tao gritted his teeth, "32, 82 meters, the home is from our province, and the growth is fine."
Xu Tao's answer froze the excitement on Xu Yan's face, and she couldn't recover for a while, her mind froze completely. At the age of 32, Xu Yan turned her head to look at Wang Guizhu in a daze, "Xiao Tao meant 32, right?"
Wang Guizhu was also a little silly, and nodded in a daze, "It's 32."
Xu Yan blinked her eyes and lowered her head to calculate how much older than Xu Tao was at the age of 32. It took her a while to figure it out. When the information was conveyed accurately at the age of seven, Xu Yan stood up abruptly and stared at him. Xiang Xutao, "I don't agree. When people are looking for a partner, they always find a girl who is younger than you. Why do you want to find an older one? The older one is fine, but it can't be so much older. Female juniors pack gold suits, female seniors five Old mother Sai, you are missing a mother, find a mother to come back and take care of you."
Xu Yan's yell made Xu Tao clenched his fists tightly, "It's not a woman."
The simple and clear four words made Xu Yan's brain explode. Standing on the kang, looking at Xu Tao who was sitting on the edge of the kang with his head bowed, his hands began to tremble a little, and he smiled dryly, "Xiao, Xiaotao, ah, That, that, what, my sister didn’t, I didn’t hear clearly.”
Xu Tao slowly raised his head and looked at Xu Yan's obviously changed face and forced disbelief in his eyes, Xu Tao began to feel pain in his heart, gritted his teeth and said again, "It's not a woman, my partner is a man."
Xu Tao's words of affirmation again made Xu Yan's brain buzzing, her heart twitched, and her body swayed unconsciously. Yan, but was immediately pushed away by Xu Yan, Xu Yan who pushed Xu Tao away, staggered, supported the stomp behind him, stared at Xu Tao with red eyes, and gritted his teeth every word, "Male?"
Xu Tao's heavy but unhesitating nod made Xu Yan anxious. She felt that there were stars in front of her eyes. She rushed to Xu Tao with one step, raised her hand, and slapped Xu Tao's right face hard. Xu Tao was stunned, and also Xu Yan was dumbfounded. With trembling lips, he looked at Xu Tao's rapidly swollen cheeks.
Xu Yan's slap also stunned Wang Guizhu, who was startled by the news, and Wang Guizhu stood up abruptly, rushed to the edge of the kang and jumped onto the kang, grabbing Xu Yan's arm, "You What are you doing, why are you beating Xiaotao?"
Wang Guizhu's cry made Xu Yan cry suddenly. The tears seemed to break the faucet of the gate, and they kept pouring out. Looking at Xu Yan who was crying, Xu Tao's eyes were red. Xu Tao knew that Xu Yan was really sad. All these years Except since they abandoned their siblings when they were young, this is the second time Xu Yan shed tears so silently.
For Xu Yan, Xu Tao has deep feelings. It can be said that Xu Yan is synonymous with home in Xu Tao's heart. Without Xu Yan, there is no home. Xu Tao feels distressed for hurting Xu Yan's heart. Digging out his heart, otherwise he would not be able to leave Mengzhan in this life.
With such a mood, Xu Tao came back without hesitation. He mustered up the courage to have a showdown with Xu Yan. He knew it was the same thing, but when he faced Xu Yan who was bursting into tears, Xu Tao realized that this kind of pain seems to be suffocating. .
Wang Guizhu carefully supported Xu Yan to sit on the kang, leaned on the quilt, stood up and walked to Xu Tao's side, and pulled Xu Tao, "Tao, sit down first, tell brother-in-law what's going on?"
Xu Tao sat down with sobs, and in a trembling tone, he explained the relationship between him and Meng Zhan in front of Wang Guizhu and Xu Yan. Finally, Xu Tao looked at Wang Guizhu with bloodshot eyes, "Brother-in-law, I can't do without him." , the mixed feelings of these years are no longer pure love. If it was possible, I would not go this way, but I can't do it now. I love him, it is true love, and I want to spend my life with him .”
The firmness in Xu Tao's tone and the persistence in Xu Tao's words made Xu Yan close her eyes in pain, raised her trembling fingers and pointed to the door, "Go, Xu Tao, you are old and disobedient, sister can't control you You, I don't want to see you again, let's go, leave my house, I, Xu Yan, just pretend it's not you, this, this, brother, brother."
With tears and decisive words, Xu Tao turned pale in an instant. Xu Tao looked at Xu Yan with a pale face. Xu Tao couldn't help shivering when Xu Yan closed his eyes. He pushed Wang Guizhu who was standing in front of him, Climbed to Xu Yan's side, grabbed Xu Yan's arm, trembling, "Sister, you don't want me anymore?"
Xu Yan didn't open her eyes and didn't speak, she just closed her eyes and shed tears silently. Xu Tao was anxious and shook Xu Yan vigorously, "Sister, open your eyes, sister, don't want me, open your eyes and look at me, Look at me."
But no matter how Xu Tao swayed and said Xu Yan just didn't open his eyes and didn't speak, but shed tears quietly, Xu Tao looked at Wang Guizhu with timidity and panic at a loss, "Brother-in-law, please persuade my sister, please persuade me My sister, brother-in-law, I beg you, come over and persuade me."
The stubbornness on Xu Yan's face and the pleading in Xu Tao's eyes made Wang Guizhu sigh deeply, and moved between the two of them. Wang Guizhu carefully pulled out Xu Yan's arm that was caught by Xu Tao, and pulled Xu Tao, "Go back first, Let your sister calm down."
Xu Tao shook his head vigorously, but didn't move. He just knelt beside Xu Yan, waiting and praying. Xu Tao, who was beside him with bloodshot eyes and a haggard expression, felt pain in his heart, but Xu Yan could not forgive Xu Tao.
Reluctantly sitting up, looking at Xu Tao who was full of pleading eyes, "Xu Tao, let's go, leave my house, I don't want to see you, and don't come back in the future."
After Xu Yan finished speaking, she grabbed a big quilt and covered her head, covered her tightly and turned her back without looking at Xu Tao. Xu Tao felt his eyes darken, and a layer of cold sweat broke out on his spine, and he looked at Xu Tao in a daze. Looking at Yan Juejue's back, there was only one thought in his heart, "Xu Yan doesn't want me anymore, sister doesn't want him anymore."
This thought hit Xu Tao's heart over and over again, and the suffocating pain hit again. Xu Tao couldn't help but swayed, sat down on the edge of the kang, and called softly, "Sister." Facing his back, he didn't even move.
Xu Tao didn't know how long he sat there in a daze, then slowly turned around and moved to the edge of the kang, put on his shoes unsteadily, and stumbled away from Xu Yan's house with the luggage on the ground.
In the early morning, the sky was just a little pale, and there was no one on the street. The empty street seemed to have been hollowed out. Xu Tao felt distressed. The bursts of darkness in front of him made Xu Tao support the wall for a while before lifting the heavy weight. The pace walked to the old house.
One deep foot and one shallow foot, Xu Tao didn't know how long he walked before returning to his hometown, and Xu Tao didn't know if he met anyone along the way. After finally returning to the old house and getting the key, Xu Tao poked the house several times before he managed to open the house. The door opened, bumped into the door frame and hit the stove, in the collision, Xu Tao fell on the kang all at once.
With a bang, Xu Tao hit the kang with a muffled sound. Lying on the kang, Xu Tao burst into tears, and secretly told Xu Tao's pain and sorrow along his temples in this hut where no one was wet.
But Wang Guizhu was just thinking about staying up all night, giving the rival siblings a hot meal, and when he came back, he found that Xu Tao was gone. Looking at Xu Yan who was lying on the kang with a big quilt covering his head, Wang Guizhu frowned. Brows, Wang Guizhu doesn't understand Xu Tao's feelings, in his opinion, only a man and a woman are serious life, what are these two men called?But Wang Guizhu also understands Xu Tao. Xu Tao and Xu Yan are actually the same in essence. brother in law.
However, the disappearing Xu Tao still made Wang Guizhu frowned. Where did he drive people away this early in the morning? Thinking of this, Wang Guizhu got on the kang and grabbed the quilt with his hand, "Daughter-in-law, the child's mother, don't sleep yet!" , get angry and sleep sick, where is Xiaotao?"
The quilt was pulled down, revealing Xu Yan's face full of tears. Such Xu Yan made Wang Guizhu feel distressed and couldn't bear to blame him. He held Xu Yan in his arms and patted Xu Yan's back comfortingly. This pat, Xu Yan wow Crying, crying for disappointment to Xu Tao, crying for the distress of Xu Tao, crying for the injustice of fate, crying for the grievance in my heart, crying for the fear of the future.
Xu Yan's crying made Wang Guizhu pat Xu Yan's back heartbrokenly. No one knows Xu Yan better than Wang Guizhu. Over the years, because of Xu Yan's outstanding appearance, because of his disability, and because of the family's earning livelihood, it is actually gossip. Quite a few, especially last year when Yanzi's mother came back suddenly, and Wang Guirong, who was not serious at first glance, came back with heavy makeup.
In the past few days, Wang Guirong, who came from home every day, made Xu Yan lose face in the brigade. What he said was that the old lady had no money. Whether you recognize it or not, you were born by me. Now that life is better, borrow some money By the way, I asked for Xu Tao's address. No matter how Xu Yan refused, the rumors quickly spread throughout the entire brigade. In this way, someone still said that the girl is like a mother, and Xu Yan will definitely run away with others in the future, because Xu Yan secretly cried for a long time about this, but her mouth grew on other people, and she couldn't stop it. During that time , The swallows dare not even come out.
Xu Yan, who was crying bitterly, had deep doubts in her heart. Is it true that children are like their parents? Otherwise, why would Xu Tao become bad? The irresponsible parents, thinking of the rumors and rumors that did not stop until this year, Xu Yan felt very aggrieved in her heart. The more this happened, the more Xu Yan felt that she could not forgive Xu Tao, and even regretted it. If you don't go to the army, you will definitely not have such a thing if you stay at home.
In the next few days, Xu Tao cheered up and went to see Xu Yan every day, but Xu Yan just didn’t see her. As long as Xu Tao came, Xu Yan would leave or hide in the house. The five-day holiday came in a blink of an eye. , Standing again at the door of the back room where Xu Yan hid, Xu Tao looked at the closed door with a haggard face.
Gently knocked on the door, "Sister, I'm going back, take good care of yourself, I'll come back to see you when I have time." After Xu Tao finished speaking, he stood quietly for a while, and there was no sound in the silent room. This kind of refusal made Xu Tao's eyes red again, and he turned to look at Wang Guizhu who was standing aside to help call the door. Xu Tao burst into tears, and quickly raised his hand to cover his eyes for a while, Xu Tao wiped his face and put his hand down, "Brother-in-law , help me persuade my sister more, I will come back when I have time."
Wang Guizhu looked at Xu Tao whose cheeks were a little dimpled, and sighed secretly in his heart, "Tao, don't be angry with your sister, your sister is not easy, let your sister think about it, your sister can think about it."
Xu Tao nodded with a sob, and left Xu Yan's house in three steps. He stood at the door and looked at Xu Tao's reluctant back. Wang Guizhu was a little angry. It was not easy for Xu Yan, but it was not easy for Xiao Tao. After suffering a lot, but when Wang Guizhu turned back to the yard, he saw Xu Yan who was quietly standing on the ladder crying, and Wang Guizhu was discouraged all of a sudden. The siblings shook their heads, and Wang Guizhu went to the ladder to support him. The ladder, and carefully helped Xu Yan, who was crying so hard that she couldn't straighten up, down the ladder and sent her back to the house.
The next afternoon, when Xu Tao returned to the army, he asked Zhou Wei to sell his leave first. Looking at Xu Tao, who had blisters around his mouth, black eyes, and obviously lost weight, Zhou Wei felt a little bit in his heart, knowing that it was a mess. Wei just patted Xu Tao's shoulder comfortingly and said nothing.
Xu Tao carried his luggage and walked home slowly. When he finally got home, he opened the door. Xu Tao lost all strength. He closed the door reluctantly. up.
Counting on Xu Tao's return today, Meng Zhan cleaned up the house early, and after getting up in the morning with Meng Zhan who was discharged from the hospital yesterday, he went to the door to watch and wait endlessly.
It was four o'clock in the afternoon when Xu Tao hadn't come back. Disappointed, Meng Zhan thought that the training had been prolonged, so he went back to his study and took out his military textbooks to read. All of a sudden, his eyes lit up, he strode out, looked at the empty living room, Meng Zhan was stunned for a moment, thought he had heard wrong, laughed at himself, turned around and was about to go to the house, suddenly, Meng Zhan felt There seemed to be a person sitting on the table, Meng Zhan's heart skipped a beat, he quickly walked to the door, and saw Xu Tao who was sitting on the ground leaning against the door and weeping quietly.
Xu Tao, who was silently crying and completely devoid of energy, caused Meng Zhan's expression to change suddenly. He rushed to Xu Tao in a big stride, and hugged Xu Tao, "Xiao Tao, Xiao Tao, what's the matter?"
Xu Tao slowly opened his eyes and saw Meng Zhan with beads of sweat on his forehead full of anxiety, he pulled the corners of his mouth into a wry smile, "Meng Zhan, my sister doesn't want me anymore."
After Xu Tao finished speaking, he curled up his body distressedly and burst into tears. Before Meng Zhan had time to think about it, he took Xu Tao with one hand and strode back to the bedroom, put Xu Tao down, and Meng Zhan half-lyed beside Xu Tao, holding Xu Tao carefully and constantly Caressing Xu Tao's back, kissing Xu Tao's forehead again and again, on the center of the head, comforting and coaxing.
I don't know how long it took, when Xu Tao fell asleep with the occasional twitch, Meng Zhan carefully covered Xu Tao with a quilt, walked out of the bedroom with a gloomy face, and called Zhou Wei directly to ask what Xu Tao had been doing for a week.
After hanging up the phone, Meng Zhan's expression was no longer gloomy, but he was deeply distressed. This fool, how could he go back by himself? Although Meng Zhan didn't go back with him, it is completely conceivable that Xu Tao must have spoken directly without even turning a corner. Straight up.
Sighing, Meng Zhan returned to the bedroom with a deep heartache and a little guilt, carefully lying beside Xu Tao and hugging Xu Tao, gently stroking Xu Tao's back that occasionally twitched, comforting silently.
Perhaps because he knew that he had returned to the last safe haven, Xu Tao, who was physically and mentally exhausted, did not open his eyes until noon the next day. When he saw Meng Zhan with eyes full of love, Xu Tao's eyes were slightly red, and he stretched out his arms to hold Meng Zhan, and he did not want to worry about anything. Don't say anything, just hug tightly, Meng Zhan knew the pain in Xu Tao's heart, his eyes flashed with distress, he hugged him tightly, and patted him lightly from time to time.
Slowly, Xu Tao's mood stabilized slightly, and slowly, with a little choking, he said Xu Yan not wanting him. After speaking, the tears in the circles of Xu Tao's eyes made Meng Zhan feel distressed, but at this time, he could not say that he felt distressed, but could only encourage him. , and based on Meng Zhan's intuitive understanding of Xu Yan, Xu Yan must be angry, but as long as Xu Tao doesn't give up, Xu Yan will accept it one day. Thinking of this, Meng Zhan smiled slightly, stretched out his big hand and wiped Xu Tao's face Eye sockets, "Okay, okay, what a big deal, think about it, if my sister really doesn't want you, would he dare to send you off as a brother-in-law who listens to my sister's words? Besides, it's normal to be angry. Sister calls, no matter whether he answers or not, you just tell her about your performance and what happened during this time, and after a long time, just let me calm down."
Xu Tao looked up from Meng Zhan's arms with red eyes, with a little uncertainty and strong expectation in his eyes, "Will it be?"
Meng Zhan nodded affirmatively, "I will." Xu Tao pulled the corner of his mouth and hugged Meng Zhan's neck again, muttering in a low voice, "Yes, yes." The expectation and guilt in Xu Tao's words made Meng Zhan Zhan distressed and swayed gently.
Time passed day by day, one month, two months, one year, one and a half years, as long as Xu Tao stayed in the fifth camp, he would call Xu Yan once a week. Talking, although Xu Tao would be depressed for a whole day after every phone call, he would continue to repeat the actions of last week next week. At Yan's place, although he was called out every time, Meng Zhan still went there when he found the opportunity, visited the door again and again, and called one after another. Meng Zhan could see that Xu Yan's attitude was softening, but now there was a lack of a step or It can be said that there is a lack of an opportunity for Xu Tao and Xu Yan to meet again.
It took another half a year for this opportunity or step to come. In the middle of the night on November 2006, 11, Xu Tao, who had returned from a mission, had not waited to rest. He suddenly felt severe abdominal pain. He was sent to the hospital by Meng Zhan before he knew about it. It was acute appendicitis. Seeing Xu Tao who was not awake after the operation and was withdrawn from the operating room, Meng Zhan breathed a sigh of relief and suddenly felt that the opportunity had come. He looked at the time, at 26:05 in the morning, Meng Zhan took a look and his face was a little pale Xu Tao touched his chin, nodded secretly, turned and left the ward.
Xu Yan, who was still lying on the bed, was startled by the rapid ringing of the phone in the early morning, and kicked Wang Guizhu. Wang Guizhu crawled out of the bed with a smile, and went down to answer the phone. When the operation required someone from home, the phone in Wang Guizhu's hand fell to the ground with a bang due to the hasty voice and the shocking news.
Wang Guizhu's face suddenly changed and the dropped phone made Xu Yan feel that something was wrong, she got up suddenly, jumped off the kang and ran to the phone, picked up the phone and shouted "Hello."
When Meng Zhan heard that it was Xu Yan, he sighed deliberately, "Sister, I'm Meng Zhan, Xiaotao is in the hospital, just finished the operation, and is still in a coma, look..."
Before Meng Zhan finished speaking, Xu Yan burst into tears, and Xu Tao's bad thoughts were all in her mind, "Wait for me, let Xiaotao wait for me, I will go right away."
After speaking, no matter whether the other end of the phone heard or not, he dropped the phone and turned around to run outside. Xu Yan's shout brought Wang Guizhu back to his senses, and grabbed Xu Yan. Xu Yan struggled excitedly, "Let go, something happened to Xiaotao!" Blame me, blame me, tell me what's wrong with my brother, it's over, it's over, something must have happened to Xiaotao, otherwise Meng Zhan wouldn't be able to make a phone call."
Weeping while talking, about to run out while crying, and yelling to go to the army to the hospital, Wang Guizhu wiped his face and forcibly held Xu Yan, "I know, let's go right away, but you have to get dressed. "
Xu Yan agreed, and dressed while crying. After Wang Guizhu calmed down forcibly, he saw that Xu Yan couldn't even button his clothes with trembling hands, so he hurried forward to help put the clothes on, and then went to the kang from the kang cabinet. Putting all the family's money in the drawer, Wang Guizhu stood in the yard and called out to his parents who lived next door. After a brief explanation, the couple rushed to the garrison headquarters where Xu Tao was in a hurry.
And Meng Zhan, who hung up the phone, returned to the ward with a slight smile on his face, touched his little fool's cheek, and whispered in his ear, "Xiaotao, sister is here, Miss forgives you."
Xu Yan yelled when she threw the phone that she blamed me on Meng Zhan, but she could hear it clearly. Although I was a little sorry, but it’s been more than two years, enough is enough. After more than two years, Xu Tao often lost his mind, even when he laughed. They are very few, but I heard from Wang Guizhu that Xu Yan and Xu Tao are in the same situation, and this suffering for siblings should have come to an end.
The author has something to say:
The text is almost finished now, I will try to shrink it to a chapter and end it, maybe tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, no later than the day after tomorrow, and I will write the conclusion.
