Su Chunyan went to the company early in the morning to take two days off. The reason is very simple: first, I didn't sleep well last night, and second, the child can't do without her. Then she went to the vegetable market to buy something.

When she got home, the old couple didn't know when it had come. The old lady hugged her little granddaughter and said to Su Chunyan in a panic: "Chunyan, what do you think is wrong with this child? Why don't you eat anything? I just want to cry, but I can't cry." ”

The little one's face was white and blue, and he was very restless. Its painful appearance caused all adults to panic.

Su Chunyan opened the child's diaper and didn't see any excrement. Or the old lady was thoughtful and found a plaster-like object blocked by the child's anal opening: "Oh, I'm afraid the child has eaten something that is not digested?"

Su Chunyan also saw it, and suddenly concluded that there was a problem with the milk powder. So he rushed to the rivers and waterways, "It's all for you to give to you! Last night, I asked you not to buy too bad, but you just didn't listen." What do I think you're doing this time?"

Jiang Heshui's heart was more uncomfortable than anyone else, and let Su Chunyan complain like this, as if she had done something hurtful and miserable: "I went to the supermarket, isn't it closed." Besides, I'm thinking that milk powder for more than 80 yuan is not cheap, right?"

"Alright, don't talk about uselessness!" the old man began, "If not, send him to the hospital quickly." ”

The old lady glared at the old man, "Isn't it also a deduction to go to the hospital?" I see, this child is similar to you?"

The old man panicked for a while. The old lady asked Jiang Heshui to find an ear picker, and began to buckle the plaster mass for the little one. Su Chunyan told Jiang Heshui to hurry up and buy milk powder. Jiang Heshui dared to slack off in the slightest, and dragged his son out with him.

The old man looked at the old lady, and a past event was vividly remembered:

In the summer of 1948, the People's Liberation Army (PLA) was overwhelmed and trotted the Nationalist Army all the way. At that time, the old man had just joined the army. In a famous battle, he didn't even look at what the national army looked like, and he was blown away by a cannonball. As soon as he landed in the air, he was completely unconscious, and a stretcher carried him to the rear hospital. He was carried by two disgraced women, one of whom was an old lady in the flowering season. There are so many wounded that a considerable number of them are not cared for by professional nurses. According to the dean's orders, the old lady became his guardian, and she never thought that she would keep it for the rest of her life.

A few days later, the old man was still in a deep coma. The old lady is a big girl, and under the persuasion of the leaders of the hospital, she finally agreed to serve him with urine and feces. The old man seems to be sensible, he has always been neither drained nor diarrhea, but his stomach is uncomfortable, which is similar to the little guy now. The old lady came to the doctor for an examination, and it turned out that in order not to starve to death after death, he had eaten something indigestible before the war. Helpless, the old lady helped him detain him for a long time......

The old man always felt that he was a good soldier, and he was often ashamed of himself in front of his son. But the son was his own after all, and he killed eleven enemies in that war at once. It's a pity that the people who were killed were all Vietnamese, and it would be even more exciting if they were replaced by little devils. He often thinks about it, and he feels great comfort that his son can win glory for him.

It didn't take much effort for the old lady to drain the little guy from his stomach. The little guy finally calmed down, much to everyone's relief.

Besides, the two of them, according to Su Chunyan's advice, they called "yes" as soon as they went out. When I arrived at a famous supermarket, I wandered around for a long time before I found a children's food counter. There is a dazzling array of milk powder in the cabinet, which is either imported or a joint venture. According to the shopping guide, none of them are not high-quality products, and their prices are between 15 and 200 yuan.

Jiang Heshui was really dumbfounded, and he couldn't do it anyway. "Damn, these days are really more popular than you, and you have to throw away the goods. He muttered to the cabinet.

"Hurry up, I'm still waiting for the rice to go to the pot at home - I think this is good. The son pointed to a can of brand with a price tag of more than 200 and said. When the father slowly moved his gaze to his son's face, he sneered: "Damn? You still need to say this, why are you just like your mother, you always love which pot you don't open and which pot you don't mention?"

"You get what you pay for," the son replied cleanly. The two of them are like brothers.

In the end, Jiang Heshui still bought two cans of the joint venture brand, 180 yuan a can. On the way home by taxi, he said to his son in a serious voice: "It's not that dad is stingy. Your sister can drink these 181 cans, which can be regarded as very rich. The children in the mountains have never even seen each other. Since he was thinking about what milk powder to buy, he has remembered Tian Qiuxiang and Wang Yuanshan a few times.

"What's there that can't be opened? Haven't I ever eaten since I was a child?"

When he entered the house, Jiang Heshui saw that the faces of the old couple and Su Chunyan were filled with joy, and when he saw the uncomfortable and happy little guy, all the sorrows in his heart were gone. He didn't know that the old lady had told Su Chunyan all the battlefield romance with the old man.

"Gee, my grandma is a real master. Jiang Huaijun looked at his little sister and said this inadvertently.

It doesn't matter if you say this, everyone who knows what's going on laughs again, only the river is stunned. He handed the milk powder to Su Chunyan, "What's the matter?

"Go back and let our mom make it for you again, and you'll know. Su Chunyan saw the price of milk powder and frowned suddenly, "This is too expensive, isn't it? ”

Jiang Heshui was afraid that he wouldn't understand, so he let his son tell the truth. "This made my dad swish for a long time," Mr. Jiang said.

"Don't talk about uselessness. When the child is hungry, hurry up and nurse her. The old man said, a little anxious.

According to the manufacturer's instructions, Su Chunyan prepared a small bowl of milk powder for the child. The little one eats very deliciously, almost greedily, and will cry after a moment's pause, until he has a bulging little belly.

Su Chunyan thought about it: The child can't eat five cans a month according to this method, but this is a full 900 yuan? Although the old couple told her that they could adjust and eat when the child was older, she still felt that her heart was clogged.

At about three o'clock in the afternoon, the little guy pulled a bubble of, which was very smooth. The is green, which makes adults feel very new, and they feel that the progress of technology has changed the world a little violently. This little thing is not only lucky, but also a rich life. Su Chunyan thought to herself.

The rivers and rivers are also a party no matter what they are, although they are a little different. Therefore, the arrival of the little one has caused some sensation to a greater or lesser extent. There is an endless stream of people who come to congratulate, see the new or join in the fun. But there was one person who surprised him, and even felt quite flattered. This person is the wife of Secretary Xu of the Municipal Party Committee, Director Lin of the former Municipal Women's Federation. Director Lin is almost ancient, gray-haired, and although he is dressed simply, he is graceful and luxurious.

"Hello chief!" Jiang Heshui saluted Director Lin.

Director Lin pulled down his saluting hand, "If you want to change your words in the future, just call Auntie." Immediately afterwards, he shook hands with Su Chunyan and the old couple one by one, calling the old couple brother and sister. Director Lin said with great interest that when Yang Weizhong went to the municipal party committee for a meeting this morning, he told Secretary Xu about the matter. At lunchtime, he said that the rivers and rivers were a meritorious act, which was admirable. I wanted to visit in person, but I was busy. Therefore, it is necessary to allow yourself to come and visit. "Son, let me see. She said to Su Chunyan again.

Su Chunyan let Director Lin into the child's room, and the others followed. The little one is asleep soundly. Director Lin looked at it for a long time.

"This kid is fine, but he has a little disability. Su Chunyan said, and then sighed again.

Director Lin used to be a military doctor, she looked at Su Chunyan and smiled, and said to everyone: "The World Health Organization has long concluded that cleft lip and palate does not belong to the category of disabled children. Don't misunderstand, and don't worry. He looked at the child's lips carefully, "You see, this child only has a mild cleft lip, and only a minor operation is needed." ”

Su Chunyan never expected that this child, who no one wanted and just let himself stand, make Director Lin say it so easily. Everyone else agrees with Director Lin's opinions. Especially the river water, it is like taking a great tonic pill for the body.

After returning to the living room, Jiang Heshui hurriedly made tea to give up his seat. During the conversation, Su Chunyan sighed several times in front of Director Lin, especially when it came to milk powder, she looked even more sad. The old couple just answered when they asked, and they didn't have a superfluous word, but they just focused more attention on Su Chunyan and Jiang Heshui's faces.

Jiang Heshui knows it, but he has no choice but to pretend to be calm and relaxed. "Aunt Lin, I want to ask you for a favor: how about naming your child?" he deliberately diverted the topic.

Director Lin was afraid that he would not be able to get up, "That's not good." The child has a fate with you - let's go with the fate - it's good to follow the fate. ”

The rivers and rivers seem to have a flash of inspiration, "Follow-the-fate?

The old couple was stunned at first, and then praised the name for being good.

"Is this appropriate?" Su Chunyan stared at the river, "Xiaolinzi hasn't replied yet." ”

"What's wrong? I'm in charge. Besides, if the child really followed him and knew that this name was given by Aunt Lin, wouldn't he be happy?" Jiang Heshui said quite confidently, and there was no room for disagreement.

Director Lin already knew Xiao Linzi and his family, and felt that their conditions were quite good. But she still said: "If Xiaolinzi is unwilling, if you have difficulties, don't be too reluctant." It's not like in the past, when the cost of raising a child was too high. In particular, the adoption of a child is clearly regulated by the state. Adopting a child must not only have certain material conditions, but also be responsible for the child's upbringing. You guys, it's still an illegal adoption, but don't forget to go to the Civil Affairs Bureau to go through the formalities. ”

Su Chunyan wanted to say something, but was stared at by Jiang Heshui's eagle-like eyes at this time. She understands that in life, he can not care about anything, and he can also give way and coax himself everywhere, but the bottom line of his life is something that no one can touch, otherwise, even if he is a sick and weak cat, he will bite you to death like a fierce tiger in an instant. Su Chunyan has not been taught before.

Director Lin saw through the thoughts of the two, "If Xiao Linzi is really unwilling, you can send the child to the welfare home, and the conditions there are not bad." You can go to see her more often in the future. ”

Jiang Heshui really took Director Lin's words seriously, "This is not good." This is tantamount to letting the child be abandoned again in my hands, and I can't even do it if I am killed. He looked at Director Lin, "Aunt Lin, don't worry, I will be responsible for the child to the end." I also ask you to tell the old chief that I will never give up and will not increase the burden on the country. ”

"We didn't mean that. They don't raise it, but I have to keep it. The old man expressed his support for his son, and this was obviously said to Su Chunyan. The old lady secretly poked her wife's waist and motioned him not to talk too much, and then glanced at Su Chunyan again.

"You, let me see what you looked like more than twenty years ago. Director Lin smiled, looked at Jiang Heshui's most smug look of Secretary Xu, and nodded after speaking. "Well, it's a great joy anyway. I hope that Xiao Suiyuan can bring endless happiness to everyone, and I also hope that she can grow up happily and healthily. ”

Su Chunyan was completely disheartened, feeling that everyone's words were said to herself, and it didn't matter who raised the child in the future. She didn't want to be a villain, "Don't worry, Aunt Lin, this child has fallen into the nest, and no one will not hurt her." The name Xiao Suiyuan is so good, thank you, Aunt Lin. Although it was a bit far-fetched, she had the same smile on her face.

Director Lin looked at Su Chunyan, "Remember, this is an authentic act of merit for you, and it should be respected by people." As she spoke, she took out a thousand yuan from her handbag and forced it to Su Chunyan, "This is a little bit of Lao Xu's heart, if you don't accept it, I won't be able to pay it back." Let's just think that our old couple also hurt the child once. It's hard to get away with that.

Director Lin wanted to talk to Jiang Heshui about the organization, and Jiang Heshui hurriedly kicked his son out of his bedroom.

"What's wrong with you? How did you get so skinny? It's like a survivor of Auschwitz. Director Lin frowned, very concerned.

"Aunt Lin is serious. I'm fine, don't worry. ”

"Listen to me, take the time to get your body checked, ah. Director Lin seemed to be giving an order, and after seeing him nod his head in agreement, he said, "Do you know how much Lao Xu cares about you? Because he's retiring too, after all, he's too old. Lao Xu is worried about what accidents and accidents will happen to you after he comes down. ”

"I'm not afraid," the river is very firm.

Director Lin smiled, "Of course, the matter is not as serious as we imagined, after all, it is still the world of the Communist Party." Lao Xu is worried about you and protects you. Who made you his old subordinate and a hero of the country? According to credible intelligence, some of the top executives in your group are suspected of major disciplinary violations. These people support the higher-level protection HS, not only are they intellectual, but they are also very arrogant - black and white are rampant, and they can do anything. So, you don't have to take it lightly. ”

Some of the top leaders in the group have a spectrum in their hearts, and as for who the higher level of the BHS is, he does not know. It seems that the whole country is facing this huge challenge?

"Lao Xu and I both understand you. Rest assured, there is no shortage of loyal fighters like you in the country. Director Lin said earnestly: "Lao Xu and I both hope that you can live a good life in the future, and don't forget to walk around with our old couple often?"

Jiang Heshui readily agreed, and felt warm in his heart for the old chief's concern; what else could he say? Although there are regrets, it is difficult to express them.

Director Lin said goodbye, and Jiang Heshui sent her all the way to the gate of the community.

Director Lin looked at him and seemed to be a little relieved, "I can see that Chunyan doesn't care much about this child." After all, this is not your business alone, it is related to the harmony and stability of your family. You have to fully respect her opinion, if you can't do it, just send the child to a welfare home, there is nothing wrong with that. ”

"I'll do it, you can rest assured. Jiang Heshui smiled indifferently.

Director Lin got into a taxi, and the river kept watching her disappear from his field of vision. In the depths of his heart, he was again entangled in the struggle -- to send the child to a welfare home? to make a joke! This is something that he cannot do, and he will never do. I just had a vague feeling that something was going to happen next......
