Jiang Huaijun was obsessed with online games, when he suddenly heard a chaotic sound in the living room, walked out of his door, and was dumbfounded.

Su Chunyan took the child from Yang Weihua's hand and carefully laid her on the sofa, "Weihua, thank you." ”

"What's the politeness?" Yang Weihua said to Jiang Huaijun who came over again, "Huaijun, you see that your mother has brought back a small ...... for you Oh my mother, I don't know if it's a man or a woman?"

Before, when everyone saw that the child was defective, no one cared about his gender. Su Chunyan opened the "diaper" and saw that it was a girl.

"Mom, where did you get this from? Why are you still an open-mouthed person?"

Su Chunyan glared at her son, "Go back and ask your father!" After speaking, he walked into the room that was usually unused, ready to settle the new little members.

Jiang Huaijun, who was still in a daze, added another suspense to his head at this time: "Uncle Yang, what's going on?"

The waiter of "Little Jasper" walked into the house. Yang Weihua asked her to put the bag on the coffee table, "What's the matter? After speaking, he said goodbye to Su Chunyan and left with the waiter.

Su Chunyan closed the door and said to her son, "I'll clean up the room for your sister, you can take care of it, don't let her fall to the ground." ”

"Well, don't worry. ”

Su Chunyan suddenly remembered one more thing, "Hurry up and call your Uncle Xiaolin and ask him to come over, don't forget to let your grandfather, grandma, and Aunt Shujun come together." One of her thoughts now is to hope that Xiao Linzi and his family can happily accept this child.

Jiang Huaijun immediately called Xiao Linzi's phone, "Uncle Linzi is me." If there's something going on at home, hurry up, and don't forget to call my grandfather, my grandmother, and Aunt Shujun. Before the other party could say a word, he put the phone down. This kid likes to make trouble, and he doesn't know what time it is.

Xiao Linzi's surname is Xianglin, and he has always lived with the old couple when he was a child to the Jiang family. It's so late, listening to Jiang Huaijun's tone, how dare he have the slightest slackness, and a few adults rushed over.

As soon as Sheng Xianglin entered the door, he saw Jiang Huaijun's strange face, and immediately felt that he had been fooled. "What's the matter? It's like the sky is falling. ”

Jiang Huaijun pointed to the little guy on the sofa, which made everyone feel surprised. At this time, Su Chunyan also walked out of the room.

The little one was in high spirits, dancing and not looking hungry at all.

Everyone who came stared at Su Chunyan, "What's the matter?" Xiao Linzi asked.

Su Chunyan said the general idea of the matter, and tried her best to look calm and calm. But when she saw Zheng Shujun frowning although she was smiling, she suddenly felt cold for most of the time.

"What a good thing, what about my brother?" asked Xiao Linzi again.

"He's going to buy something for the kid, and it's time to come back. ”

Xiao Linzi said "oh", and immediately turned to Jiang Huaijun: "You kid don't always have no big or small in the future, don't you, don't have any courtesy at all." Why did you call, ah? It's so late, I wonder who your mother let kidnap her. ”

It was meant to be a joke, but it didn't cause any repercussions. The old lady glared at Xiao Linzi behind Su Chunyan's back, and that look was definitely a hint. Xiao Linzi suddenly felt rash, and immediately made a nonchalant look.

Su Chunyan deliberately shifted her gaze to Zheng Shujun's face.

Zheng Shujun was three years younger than Sheng Xianglin, fair, delicate, introverted and glamorous, and she was beautiful in a blue dress, as if she had guessed what she wanted to say, and her frowning brow was disappointing.

Xiao Linzi also seemed to realize something, and just as he was about to make a sound, he was twisted on his arm by his daughter-in-law. Seeing this, Su Chunyan had to swallow back what she wanted to say.

The old couple are both in their seventies, with kind eyebrows and kind eyes, although they are full of silver hair, they are tough. The old lady looked at the little guy who put her hand in her mouth, "I'm afraid the child is hungry." ”

Su Chunyan looked at the old lady, "Why don't you find something to cushion her first?" As soon as the words fell, Jiang Heshui hurriedly entered the house. He bought a whole bunch of baby products: food, clothing, and a big bag of "diapers." ”

Su Chunyan picked up a can of milk powder and looked at it, and asked Jiang Heshui: "How much is this milk powder?"

"More than eighty, isn't it too expensive?" Jiang He didn't know the depth, and he originally wanted to go to the supermarket, but when he saw that the door was closed, he could only pick up the most expensive can in a store.

"It's not expensive. Su Chunyan didn't know what to say, "If this milk powder can be drunk, then we will have a better life in the future." ”

"What's the matter?

"Do you think it's easy to feed a child now?" the old lady feigned, and then said to Su Chunyan with a smile: "Okay, let's eat first, the child is hungry." ”

The pacifier bought back by the river water can't be used by the child. Su Chunyan and the old lady could only take turns feeding with a small spoon. Fortunately, the little guy ate to the fullest.

Jiang Heshui saw that the child was eating well, and his heart was steady. He looked at the old man, "Dad, what's the matter, are you happy to have a little granddaughter?"

"Well, I think it's good. The old man's face was full of joy. He had a fiery temper when he was young, and he was like a little lamb when he was old.

"Brother, how about letting me be the child's godfather?" Xiao Linzi on the side said.

Xiao Linzi is eight years younger than Jiang Heshui, of medium stature, with good facial features, plain and graceful, and a pair of eyes that are not big or small, often reflecting a luster that surpasses shrewdness. He doesn't give people the impression that he is afraid of his wife - he is a little too obedient to Zheng Shujun.

Jiang Heshui heard Xiao Linzi say this, and he was actually very happy in his heart. "If you want to be a godfather? that's not good, if you want to be a father, you can be a father. He was clearly getting off the donkey.

Actually, Xiao Linzi is quite concerned about this matter, but his wife has already understood his thoughts. Hearing Jiang Heshui say this, he gasped, and he had no idea for a while. He looked at Zheng Shujun with a smile on his face, "What's the daughter-in-law?"

At this time, everyone's eyes converged on Zheng Shujun's face. Especially Su Chunyan, her eyes are full of expectation. Zheng Shujun had a bitter look on her face, and she didn't say a word.

Su Chunyan couldn't stand it anymore, "Isn't this kid just a little flawed? She grabbed Zheng Shujun's arm and shook it, "Just raise it, listen to my sister-in-law, ah? ”

"If there was nothing to do, then it would still be our turn, we would have been taken away by others a long time ago. Are you right?"

No matter how she persuaded her, Zheng Shujun's face was always engraved with the word reluctance. She looked at them all, "But, but the doctor said I could still live." ”

Zheng Shujun's words were only not understood by the little girl, which made Su Chunyan speechless for a moment.

"Oh mom!" Xiao Linzi looked up helplessly, "It's been all these years, if you can give birth, you won't give birth sooner!"

Zheng Shujun's face gradually became gloomy, and her widening eyes seemed to be full of deep hatred, which made Xiao Linzi immediately dumbfounded and honest.

Jiang Heshui knows that Zheng Shujun has always been so strong, "Okay, okay, this matter can't be forced, we have to let our Shujun think about it." He looked at Zheng Shujun, "That's it, when you figure it out, take the child away, it's all right, and if you have your own child in the future, send her back to me, what's the matter?"

Zheng Shujun nodded, glared at Xiao Linzi fiercely, and her face gradually became rare and warm.

The hour was not early, and when he was leaving, the old man said to Su Chunyan: "Chunyan, if you are busy with work, send the child over." ”

"I don't care, this kid has enough for me. The old lady said it to her grandson Jiang Huaijun, duplicitous.

......

Dead.

Jiang He couldn't sleep, and he didn't know what time it was late at night, and he tentatively rested his hand on Su Chunyan's belly, and felt that there was no reaction, so he got out of bed cautiously and tiptoed into the living room. He first drank a glass of water, then took out a bag of yellow dry tobacco from the drawer, sat down on the sofa and skillfully rolled up a cigarette...... He remembered: when he first entered the "Little Family Biyu" in the evening, he personally moved the cardboard box from the table to the pile of beer boxes. The woman described by Yang Weihua who resembles "Ziwei Girl" must be the biological mother of this child. He imagined again that the woman must have been sitting there beforehand, and when she saw her come in, she left. And it was such a coincidence? It suddenly occurred to him that this woman was nearby, watching his every move.

The living room was already smoky. Jiang Heshui didn't want to think about it anymore, but he couldn't do it. I was worried that the next days would be boring, but I never thought that I would suddenly turn into another unfathomable life realm. For this sudden little life, he really didn't think too much about it at first, but now it is really difficult to sleep. Because, he has already made a little-known promise in a distant mountain. It is okay to fulfill this promise and lower one's living standard before leaving, but what should be done in the future? Not to mention that one-third of the income has been reduced, and a small mouth of high consumption has been added.

The bedroom door opened, and Su Chunyan walked out in her pajamas. She slapped her hand in front of her wrinkled face a few times, and quickly opened the doors and windows to the balcony to the limit.

"What's the matter, can't you sleep?" Su Chunyan poured herself a glass of water and sat down, "You deserve it!" She had a smile on her face, trying her best to keep her voice low for fear of alarming the two children, and her tone was not as heavy as before.

"Wife," Jiang Heshui snuffed out the cigarette butt in his hand, "This child really has a fate with us, and it's quite deep." I'm afraid you can't grind through what you have in mind. ”

"Pull it down, who doesn't know what virtue you are. Su Chunyan said quite calmly, "Do you think I really fell asleep just now?" I think about it, I've been with you for almost twenty years, marry a dog and follow a dog." Don't think that you are the only one in this world who can be a good person. ”

When Jiang Heshui heard this, he suddenly became relieved and open-minded. "Oh mom, I love to hear that!" he took out a plate of peanuts and the remaining smoked chicken from the refrigerator with a changed mind, and poured two cups of "Erguotou." "Come, wife. I'll toast you for the child. As he spoke, he took a sullen breath.

After Su Chunyan drank a glass of wine, she remembered something, "Tonight—it was last night, how much did you spend on buying things for your child?"

Jiang Heshui thought for a while, got up and took out the envelope that the child was carrying from the drawer, and put it on the coffee table: "It's all here, you can count it." ”

Su Chunyan counted four hundred and six, "You spent four hundred." This is a total of five thousand. ”

"Almost. Jiang Heshui looked at Su Chunyan, "We can't spend this money, we have to put it away." "It's solemn.

Su Chunyan tasted the note paper, "This character is very beautiful, and the wording is also rigorous, like a cultural person." In fact, this woman's heart is not bad at all. You see, this kid doesn't have any slump in his body, and he doesn't feel hungry until you come back from shopping. This shows that she has not been away from the child for a long time, and she has been full of milk before. Besides, the colors that children wear and use are all brand new. This also shows that the child is designated as the first child, and there is no problem of preference for sons, so maybe there is another hidden reason, right?"

Jiang Heshui took the note and read it carefully, and told her everything he thought of before: "Why do I think that this child seems to me to be entrusted by someone? If this is the case, then Shujun and his family can't give it if they want it." ”

When Su Chunyan heard this, her eyes immediately widened: "I said that your head was kicked or the crack in the door was squeezed? Who of your brothers is not raised? The conditions of Xiaolinzi are not better than ours-" She suddenly remembered what Yang Weihua said when she entered the "Little Family Biyu" last night, "What's the matter, you and that woman really have something to say, don't you?"

"Oh mom," Jiang Heshui smacked his mouth, and he didn't know what to say. After a while, he said to her with disgust: "I said that you believe it? ”

Su Chunyan looked at her skinny man who was only wearing a pair of shorts, "If it's weird." Only I, a stupid girl, followed you, and I regretted it later, and my intestines were repentant. ”

Jiang Heshui saw that what she said was angry, and at this time, he didn't want to make any more extraneous branches because of the children, so he persuaded: "Okay, don't wake up the two children." Don't go to bed early, you'll be back to work tomorrow. He said as he rolled an old dry tobacco.

Su Chunyan's consciousness is on the rise, where is she willing to sleep. She took a sip of wine, stared at the yellow dry tobacco pouch, and seemed to find some reason?, "Husband, I can't put aside something in my heart, I want to ask you if it's okay?" she said softly, and there was no lack of mystery on her face.

Jiang Heshui looked at his girl, "Say it." I listened and answered all questions. Although he said it very easily, he began to make trouble in his heart: this girl is just a pot that doesn't open and mention, maybe she has caught herself again?

"It's been almost a year. Su Chunyan said: "I am an accountant, and I am no worse than others in terms of managing family finances. How much do you earn a month, how much do you pay home a month? She pointed to the old dry tobacco and peanuts on the coffee table, "Your monthly personal expenses are about 15,000 now." It's just such a way to eat, and it doesn't cost more than 300 yuan to die. Even if you have anything else to do, then you still have at least 1,000 yuan of income where you don't know. Just explain it to me. ”

This girl is really not good, Jiang Heshui thought to himself. But what about it? He was really in trouble, smacking his lips and sighing.

"What's the matter? Are you ashamed to speak? Or are you still embarrassed? I'll slim you down again: I won't believe you if you say you're breading and two grandmothers outside, and you're going to kill you. ”

Su Chunyan's words made him feel a little embarrassed. But once this matter is exported, it is really contrary to his original intention...... Finally he gritted his teeth and decided to let it out, "Okay, I said." But don't worry about it? Don't talk about it in front of outsiders. ”

Su Chunyan hesitated for a moment, "Okay, you can say it." She knew very well that no matter what the stupid man in front of her said, it would never make her happy.

"Do you remember my trip to Beijing last year?"

"Remember, it was probably April last year. ”

Jiang Heshui smiled, "Nonsense, I lied to you." Actually, I went to Jiangxi ......"

On the eve of the Qingming Festival in 2003, Jiang Heshui wanted to pay his respects to the old squad leader who was buried in the border of Yunnan, but an article in the "People's Daily" made him change his mind. This is an article about the current situation in the old revolutionary areas. The scene described in the article made the river feel like a lifetime away, and it questioned the prosperity he saw. So, according to the relevant information in the newspaper, he walked into a small mountain village in the Ji'an area of Jiangxi Province.

A dilapidated primary school nestled against a mountain gave him a real glimpse of the poverty and desolation behind the so-called prosperity: the crumbling, windy school building, the muddy playground, and a group of thinly dressed and shivering children...... None of them were dressed decently, and some of them even showed their feet. When they eat, they eat pickles, but they eat many times more than the children in the city. The only thing that can compare to the city schools here is the five-star red flag fluttering on a slender treetop. Everything in front of him made him feel sad and couldn't sleep all night.

A female teacher surnamed Li, in her thirties, is also poignant and emotional. Under her guidance and help, Jiang Heshui and the two children formed a "poverty alleviation pair". The two children are Tian Qiuxiang, 13 years old, and Wang Yuanshan, 12 years old. The two were classmates, both of whom were only in the third grade of primary school, and dropped out of school at the same time last year. The two children looked at the river, and their tears were filled with helplessness and a desire to learn.

Jiang Heshui's promise is to pay 500 yuan in cash per month for each of his two children until he graduates from university. When the two children reverently "pounced" and knelt down, the river suddenly felt that thousands of arrows pierced their hearts, and tears poured out. It was the first time he had been so injured since he returned from the army.

Speaking of this, Jiang Heshui's eyes were a little moist, and his expression was wooden.

Su Chunyan had been listening quietly and not saying a word, but she was thinking about it in her heart. She looked at his eyes, which were not large, not sensitive, and sometimes even dull, and suddenly felt a sharp, restrained, persistent light in the depths of those pupils. Although this beam of light is extremely thin, it has a penetrating power that can be collided with by any force and cannot be stopped. For this reason, Su Chunyan could only sigh.

"It's a good thing, but no one can say anything with a clear conscience. But we also have to do what we can, right? We also have our own days, so we can't be too bitter about ourselves. Su Chunyan tried her best to speak calmly.

Jiang Heshui deeply understood Su Chunyan's words and was quite satisfied. He looked at the coffee table where the wine was dry and clean, pondered for a moment and said, "It's not okay to say that you are not afraid of bitterness at all, as long as we don't lose the child." You see, haven't you and my son been doing well for more than a year, have you been affected?" he spread his hands, looking very chic.

"Doesn't it matter?" Su Chunyan glared at him fiercely, "Do you know that you are my grandfather?" compared to a year ago, what do you look like now?" she glanced up and down at his skinny body, "It's like a monkey who has not passed the Flame Mountain, how can you still be a little human." Others think I'm mean to you, you know, you think I'm comfortable?" she was really emotional, tears streaming down her eyes, and she simply got up and went into the bedroom.

Jiang Heshui looked at the closed door and felt guilty in his heart. However, his heart is also completely open: in the future, he will pay his two children on a monthly basis, and he will no longer need to hide it.

The bedroom door opened again. Su Chunyan threw a clean undershirt to him, and then went straight to the little guy's room.

A woman is a woman, and she is born to be soft. Jiang Heshui was full of comfort, first silently and obediently put on his undershirt, and then was stunned for a while. He picked up the wine bottle that had already bottomed out and shook it, and then went to find half a bottle of wine and raw onions, salted radish strips, and drank it.

Su Chunyan walked out of the room and put the "diapers" that she had replaced for the child into the paper basket in the toilet, and didn't want to deal with this stupid old man who didn't make people worry.

"Wife," Jiang Heshui rushed to Su Chunyan, who was silent and wanted to enter the house: "Come, let's talk again, I have something to say to you." ”

Su Chunyan hesitated for a moment and sat back in Fang Cai's seat. "Look, this wine makes you lose all the edges as soon as you drink it. She has always cared about him drinking, she herself drinks from the sea, but she is worried that his body and bones will not be able to stand it.

"Isn't today's day special? Jiang Heshui pouted at the child's door again, "The little guy didn't make trouble, did he?"

"Are you making a fuss, you don't have long ears? Su Chunyan's heart didn't seem to have stopped, "The child's belly seems to be a little swollen?"

"Hey, I must be feeding too hard next night, as long as I don't make trouble. Jiang Heshui changed the topic, "In the future, you can rest assured, this child will be brought by our mother." As for me, if I look for something to do, I can earn seven or eight hundred even if I look at the gate or something, and I will ensure that our days will not drop to the level. ”

Su Chunyan felt a lot more comfortable when she heard this, "Actually, it won't be hard to support a child with our income, but you can't have any dreams." Seriously, I'm still thinking about letting Huai Jun go abroad to stay abroad. ”

"What? What are you talking about? Liuyang?" Jiang Heshui was stunned, "How much does it cost?"

"It's not a bad thing to do with a hundred or two hundred thousand. Su Chunyan looked at him, "I thought, we have 80,000 yuan in savings now, and we can borrow another 70,000 or 80,000 yuan." ”

"Pull it down!" Jiang Heshui disagreed in his heart, "In order to keep a foreign ocean, pull so many famines, you can think of it." ”

Su Chunyan sighed, "It's not like that, now I don't think about anything." It's all for you to give you a sigh of shame. She glared at him fiercely and said, "Look at Mr. Yang, he has already completed the formalities for his girl." ”

"Don't mention that bastard, he's not a good bird!" Jiang Heshui said angrily.

"What's the matter?

Su Chunyan's gaze made Jiang Heshui feel very unfamiliar. A few days ago, he handed over a document about Yang Weizhong's suspected corruption to Secretary Xu. This information is very important, although incomplete, but it can be regarded as its own work. It would be an unforgivable sin to get out of trouble because of one's own gaffes.

"What's the matter, do you have evidence?" Su Chunyan then asked again.

"Evidence?" Jiang Heshui smoked a cigarette, trying his best to look as calm and calm as possible, not taking her words seriously. "If I had any proof, I would have fired him!" he was worried.

"I think you're drunk?" Su Chunyan breathed a sigh of relief gently, "Okay, let's not go too far." ”

Jiang Heshui drank the wine in the cup, "How can I have you to go far? He's joking, looking drunk.

"You can drink it hard, drink it to death and pull it down. Su Chunyan said with disgust. She picked up the thick envelope, read the note again, and said to herself, "I guess this girl doesn't look like a money-strapped lord." After speaking, he wrenched his fingers again, "There are only a few days left before the child's full moon." ”

"Don't lose this kid, you have to do it well. Hey, can you name her?"

"I can't afford it, and I can't get up well. Su Chunyan specially reminded Jiang Heshui, "No one can get up and let your father get up?" I know what he can do, and he is designated as either a soldier or a battalion or something?"

Jiang Heshui suddenly perked up, "Hey, this camp word sounds good-crystal clear?"

"Pull it down. Your son's name is Huai Jun, and your daughter's name is Huai Ying, isn't this an authentic military camp? Iron battalion and flowing soldiers, burning company camps, cheesy. Su Chunyan threw the envelope to him as she spoke, "You put the note away." This money will be given to your daughter's full moon envoy, let's remember as much as you want. Then she went into the house and went to sleep.

Jiang Heshui did not feel the slightest tiredness at this time, and his heart began to stir up like a river and a sea. Su Chunyan's strange gaze forced him to be careless. She is an accountant, and she is also a corner in the company, and she usually comes into contact with people with heads and faces. Once Mr. Yang is thrown off the horse, can she be innocent and keep herself alone? Corrupt officials who are greedy for money will be greedy for sex, and in today's materialistic society, she Su Chunyan was born a beautiful embryo...... He didn't dare to think deeper, imagining his wife so badly, which in itself was a failure. However, the qualities that men have in common must be innate. He really wished he was thinking too much. However, years of anti-corruption have endowed him with a special professional sensitivity.
