Chapter VIII The Past

Qin Fan still didn't believe that his beating could be exposed like this. After the door of the teaching office was gently closed by Su Anping, the original silence returned to the room, and Su Anping was Tan Zhi's life-saving benefactor. With a "snort", a match was slashed and burned to the cigarette in his mouth, and after a while, Tan Zhi's contemplative face appeared in a burst of smoke. At this time, Tan Zhi didn't think about Qin Fan. His heart has been touched by "who has never been young" and "Qin Guohua" in his mouth, yes, who has never been young, but when he was young, the things he experienced were his most unforgettable and painful memories.

He muttered from his mouth, "Yinyin." ”

In that exciting and sad era, his beautiful lover like a stamen, his beloved Guo Yinyin, was hit in the head by a bullet flying in the night, fell in front of him, swallowed his last breath in his arms, and his heart was empty.

When the members of the "** faction" swarmed to attack, they had occupied the county party committee building for two days. His friend Su Anping fled in a hurry with him wounded on his back. Left behind his beloved Yinyin. His revolutionary comrades also scattered and fled. Afterwards, when the members of the "** faction" cleaned up the scene, they found a total of 27 bodies of members of the "Sitting Character Faction", 11 revolutionary comrades of their own "Standing Character Faction", and two residents who were mistakenly hit by stray bullets.

It was only after many days that he had regained his senses that his beloved, his beautiful man as beautiful as a flower, had been hastily buried in a deep pit in the backyard of the county party committee building, along with other revolutionary comrades-in-arms. It is also reported that Commander Nguyen Gang of the "Sitting Character Faction" was shot and killed in a residential building on Beimen Avenue on the evening of July 8. Qin Guohua, the cadre of the "Standing Word Faction", also did not know what to do, and the latter two factions clashed many times, but there was no trace of him.

Qin Fan outside the window knew the days of his parents. When Director Tan didn't choose what to say, he immediately knew that Director Tan was also a radical who had experienced that era, and he should belong to the faction that was opposed to Qin's father. When Qin Fan was obsessed with the days with Wanqing, out of curiosity about how his parents got together, he pestered his parents many times and talked about their love history. However, Qin Fan quickly abandoned Qin's father's statement, according to Qin's father's statement: At that time, various units organized theatrical performances, and he played the erhu and dulcimer on stage, and he was out of the limelight, and was seen by Qin's mother in the audience, and was immediately moved, and then contacted many times, and finally established a relationship.

At this time, Qin's mother, who was beside her, smiled and said to her son: Don't listen to your father, your father is a liar.

Qin Fan's curiosity was aroused, and he hurriedly asked, Qin's mother looked at Qin's father obliquely and said: At that time, your father lied to me that although he was from the countryside, his family was a big local family, his eldest brother, that is, your uncle, was the people's teacher, the second brother was a hero to resist US aggression and aid Korea, and the third brother was a hairdresser. Looking at her son's puzzled eyes, Qin's mother continued: That year...... Qin Fan asked casually: What year? Qin's mother hesitated a little and asked Qin's father: Is it 67 years? Qin's father said with certainty: Yes, it is 67 years.

Qin's mother continued: That year, I went back to my hometown with your father to visit relatives, and when I saw it, I almost cried, the big family is a village of more than a dozen households, his family is a family with many people, his eldest brother is a private school, he has long gone home to read Buddha and accompany his mother, and the second brother is indeed to resist US aggression and aid Korea, but he has long been discharged from the army and returned home to farm. The third brother is a shaver who goes from village to village.

"Do you regret it?" Qin Fan knew that he had asked something stupid. Mother Qin shook her head and continued: The people there are very kind to her. Dad Qin continued: The locals regard her as a fairy on the painting, of course they are good to her, this family, that family, please. Later, other villages also came to invite. Later, I was a little scared to eat, and your grandmother couldn't close her mouth with a smile every day.

Qin Fan thought about it, her mother was only eighteen years old at the time, the good girl of her parents, the tsundere girl in the city, although the Red Guards were in tandem in 66, she also went to Beijing in tandem, wrote to her parents and Qin's father, and said that she was very excited to see the leader at the ** gate.

However, in '67, people began to be killed in the city, and she felt terrible. He has never seen this paradise-like life, coupled with Qin's father's flattery, he went up the mountain to catch rabbits and birds, went into the garden to pick tea, and went down to the river to fish. Every day is very happy.

Qin Fan went to his grandfather and grandmother again to ask for verification, and his grandmother said with a smile: Your father came to our house for the first time, his hair was combed and shiny, the flies would flash when he stood up, the leather shoes on his feet were also polished, and he was carrying a gift in his hand. As a result, I was blocked by your mother at the entrance of the alley, slapped in the face, and warned your father not to come again!

Grandpa looked at his wife: The result is that you not only taught him to drink, but also asked him to drink with you often, and finally drank his daughter.

Grandma also said: That year, you let them go together. Grandpa: If you don't leave, you won't be able to live!

I remember Qin Fan at that time, when he wanted to ask clearly, the two old men kept silent at the same time, recalling that period of history was the pain that the old people were most unwilling to recall, the distortion and evil of human nature, and even affected half of some people's lives.

In later generations, Qin Fan and his grandfather had a separate chat, and the topic turned to this history, and the grandfather, who was already very old, recalled intermittently: lost his relatives...... Danger looms over her daughter...... I had to ask Qin Guohua, who was pursuing his daughter, to let him take his daughter and leave Gao'an City as soon as possible and return to Guohua's hometown.

And more than ten years later, the old father Qin, every time he recalled this period, there were several different statements, Qin Fan had to write down, the closest statement: Qin's father took the young Qin's mother overnight and left Gao'an City, passing through the provincial capital, the two major factions in the provincial capital: "wonderful" and "good fart", were also fiercely exchanged fire, and the gunfire was sometimes fierce, sometimes sparse. The two did not stay long in the provincial capital, so with the help of Qin's father's classmates, they left safely, but when they approached Jiangcheng, the ferry had been blocked, and fortunately they met the villagers at the door again. A fishing boat was found in the local area, and the three of them crossed the Yangtze River by boat. I stayed in the middle of the night in a simple house in my hometown. The old mother of the villager likes the young Mother Qin very much, and gets up in the middle of the night to boil water for Mother Qin to wash. When the sky was hazy, the villagers escorted them out of Jiangcheng again, and there were still gunshots in Jiangcheng at this time. The road was bumpy and bumpy, and finally arrived at my hometown.

He stayed until the "Great Tandem of the Leaders of the Revolutionary Organizations in Various Places" was issued from above. before returning to Gao'an. got married the following year, and had Xiao Qin Fan in the second year, and at that time he had entered the seventies.

According to the time calculation, Qin's father should not have participated in the siege of the county party committee building. However, Qin Fan suddenly heard the old father's words: "... That night, we buried more than 20 years..."Just as I was about to ask, Zhao Zhongxiang's deep voice came from my ears: "Where ......" and then look at the old father who has returned to his senses to see the animal world. Yes, Qin Fan was confused again. Su Anping took the textbook and walked out of the teaching building, tilted his head and saw Qin Fan squatting in the grass, beckoned, Qin Fan slowly stood up and shook over. "Eavesdropping again?" said Teacher Su, patting him on the shoulder. "I've already told Principal Luo about you, so you write a check first, and I'll hand it over to Principal Luo. After speaking, he urged Qin Fan again: "Go back to the classroom quickly, it's time for class." After taking a few steps forward, he turned around and said, "What's going on these days, you can bear with me!"

After Qin Fan said "yes", he remembered something, and shouted to Teacher Su who was walking forward again: "Teacher Su, I thought of you after school in the afternoon, are you free?" Teacher Su replied: "You go." He waved his hand again and walked alone.

In fact, Qin Fan had also met the gentle Principal Luo. Ms. Su is a student of Principal Luo, and Principal Luo sometimes goes to the students for a few drinks. I also met Qin Fan at Teacher Su's place, and once asked Qin Fan about the situation at home, when Qin Fan talked about his grandfather and grandmother, Principal Luo pondered for a moment, nodded, and said to Qin Fan: "Your grandfather is a very good person. ”

After Principal Luo left, Qin Fan asked Mr. Su what kind of person Mr. Luo was, and Mr. Su simply said that he was also an underground worker before liberation, and he worked in the education port after liberation, and he also experienced being criticized and squatting in the cowshed. He is an experienced and wise old man. Teacher Su respected him very much, Qin Fan asked Principal Luo's name again, he felt that his grandfather and Principal Luo must have known each other, maybe there was some story between the two. Teacher Su also asked about Qin Fan's grandfather, and also felt that it was possible.

It was noon, and there was still one last geography lesson left in the morning. As soon as Qin Fan wanted to enter the classroom, he was stopped by Teacher Peng, who was already waiting, and asked Director Tan's attitude. Qin Fan had a headache At this time, here, standing with Teacher Peng. Sure enough, the classmates sitting by the window in the classroom laughed in a low voice. When Lao Peng heard this, he also felt embarrassed, so he hurriedly asked, and then left in a hurry. As soon as he disappeared, the classroom burst into laughter. This must be the reason why the students saw him and Teacher Peng together, and thought of the reason why he hugged Teacher Peng yesterday. Qin Fan walked into the classroom and imitated the voice of the geography teacher: "Be serious! Students, we are going to class now!" The students looked at Qin Fan and behind him, and laughed even harder, some female classmates couldn't stand the laughter, holding their stomachs with one hand, lying on the table, their shoulders shaking all over again. At this time, a ridiculous voice came from behind Qin Fan: "Classmate Qin Fan, why don't you teach the students on my behalf?" Qin Fan turned around and saw the geography teacher, he was also quite embarrassed, and hurriedly said: "How can you be, you are still old, or you are old." The geography teacher was an easy-going man, and although he was over forty, he still had the demeanor of his youth, but he was past the age when boys were in reverie with female teachers. The bell at the end of the last class is also the charge horn, and the four and a half classes in the morning have exhausted the students' stomachs. At that time, most of the students thanked the teacher for not delaying the class, and when the first class bell was not extinguished, and the second class bell was not up, the high-spirited students had already started to charge ------ rushed to the cafeteria.

Only the students who go home for dinner will slowly pack their schoolbags.

Qin Fan didn't belong to the small group of slow people, he was now a big group of high-spirited people. However, by the time he ran to the cafeteria out of breath, there were already several long lines in the cafeteria, and by the time he was cooking, there was only one or two kinds of food.

After finishing the meal, he returned to the classroom, and after two bites of memory, Qin Fan threw away the rice spoon, and he really couldn't eat this meal now. At this time, some other students asked while eating, "Didn't you say that this meal is better than pig food?"

Qin Fan replied casually: "Yes, this meal is better than pig food, because it is cooked!"

After saying that, he always felt that something was wrong, because in his impression, he hadn't eaten this kind of meal for almost a year.
