Comfort Women's Japanese Aberdeen (novella) Zhang Baotong 2017.12.22

Husband Luo Xianxian regarded the child in Wei Shaolan's womb as the biggest humiliation in his life, so when his mother decided that her daughter-in-law had to give birth to the child, she was very annoyed and gritted her teeth and said, "You are intent on disgrace for me for the rest of my life." So saying, he got up and left. To vent his anger, he returned to the cave, grabbed a pickaxe, ran to the opposite hillside, and dug the wasteland desperately.

Wei Shaolan understands her husband's mood very well, but she can't disobey her mother-in-law's will. Although they are married, there are some major matters in the family that have to be decided by the mother-in-law. Although she also said that she wanted to kill the child in her womb, she had compassion for the child in her womb, in fact, no woman was willing to beat the child in her womb, but she couldn't bear this humiliation and notoriety. She had heard from other people's rumors that she had been taken by the Japanese and said that she had been taken by the Japanese as a wife. Moreover, when she told others about the child in her womb, almost all of them advised her to kill it quickly. She knew that the old and the young thought very differently on the subject. Young people think of face, and they hate Japan very much when they see that the Japanese have done all the bad things. Although the elderly also hate the Japanese, they are even more afraid of losing their children and grandchildren.

In the afternoon, my mother-in-law made lunch and asked Wei Shaolan to call her husband back for dinner. Wei Shaolan came to the opposite hillside and said to her husband, "Go home and eat." The husband stiffened his neck and said, "No." As he spoke, he continued to dig the wasteland with his pickaxe desperately. Wei Shaolan felt very embarrassed. She went up to her husband and said, "My mother wants me to keep the child, and you want me to kill the child, who do you say I should listen to? So saying, he walked briskly towards the edge of the cliff. When her husband saw that she was really walking towards the edge of the cliff, he dropped his head, ran after him, grabbed Wei Shaolan's hand, and said, "It doesn't matter if you want the child, but you can't live without you at home." Besides, if you're dead, what should I do?" Wei Shaolan said, "I'm dead, you can just find another big girl and give you another child." ”

The husband, Luo Yinxian, grabbed his daughter-in-law's hand tightly and said, "Do you think the eldest girl is so easy to find?" Forget it, don't block the breath, I don't blame you for letting the Japanese arrest you, but I can't let you give birth to this child, or let me watch it all day, and I won't feel good." Think about it, isn't that the reason?" Wei Shaolan nodded, but, she said, "But I didn't give birth, and I didn't beat it, so you said I would do it yesterday?" The husband sighed and said, "I can't help it." "Because he could not disobey his mother.

Wei Shaolan and her husband sat on the edge of the hillside for a while, watching him frowning and smoking cigarettes all the time, and she said to her husband, "You have to think about it, I may never be able to have children again." The husband didn't believe it and said, "Whether you can give birth or not, Xu Langzhong may not be able to see that you are still young, although you have suffered this great sin, but you recover quickly." It won't be three or two years before it gets better. Wei Shaolan said, "If it doesn't get better, what should I do?" The husband didn't reply for a long time, and then Wei Shaolan said, "At that time, we really don't have any children, what do you say?" The husband gritted his teeth and said, "Even if you don't have a child, you can't have this child." This shitty Japanese devil really killed our family. Wei Shaolan said, "Okay, I'll tell our mother that I don't want this child either, so I will kill this child." So saying, she pulled her husband up from the ground and said, "All right, let's go home and eat, for I am hungry." Then the husband got up, patted the dust off his body, and followed his daughter-in-law down the slope.

In the evening, when it got dark, Wei Shaolan and her mother-in-law were still sitting on a big rock outside the cave and talking. Wei Shaolan said what she and her husband insisted on killing the child. However, the mother-in-law still did not agree. She said, "I'm your mother, and everything I want to do is for your good, and I won't harm you." Then she told about the story of a good sister she had when she was a child. That good sister is her neighbor named Xiaoqin, who is not only handsome, but also very smart. However, at the age of seventeen, Xiaoqin's father died, and his mother was also sick, so he had to sell her to a wealthy family. However, the rich man's wife was a tigress and couldn't tolerate Xiao Qin, so she sold Xiao Qin to a brothel. Xiaoqin lived in a brothel until he was 23 years old, and was ransomed and became his wife. However, Xiaoqin did not give birth to anyone until he was in his 30s. They divorced her. Later, she left here, and I don't know where she went. Of course, Wei Shaolan knew that her mother-in-law's intention in telling her this story was to say that after a woman was ruined by men, her fertility was destroyed and she could not have any more children. Moreover, Xu Langzhong also gave her a pulse, and there were warnings and admonitions.

Seeing that Wei Shaolan had a change of heart, her mother-in-law continued, "It's the Japanese devil who spoils you, but the child in your belly is innocent, although he is not a virtuous species, but you were born to be your child." You see that Chang Lin's child is not Chang Lin's biological child, but he is not supporting Chang Lin for the elderly?" Listening to her mother-in-law's words, Wei Shaolan's mind immediately changed again. She felt that her mother-in-law was well-informed, her words were reasonable, and she was convinced. Of course, what worries Wei Shaolan the most is that she may also suffer from Xiaoqin's lifelong infertility. For she had also heard that all the women who had been in a brothel would hardly have any more children, and that although she had not been in a brothel, what had happened to her was more miserable and humiliating than that of being in a brothel. So, she thought that if she killed the child and couldn't have children again, then it would be better to give birth to the child first. In this way, no matter what happens to her, at least she has a child behind her. has a child, even if she lives alone in the future, she will not worry about no one taking care of her.

Thinking like this, she said to her mother-in-law, "Mom, I also want to give birth to the child, but he is afraid that he will not be able to afford to lose this person, and he also said that after giving birth to this child, he will make him feel humiliated and ashamed as soon as he sees this child." Otherwise, you go and persuade him well, and as long as he does not object, I will give birth to the child. The mother-in-law said, "I'll persuade him first, and then you will blow the pillow breeze on him." ”

The next morning, when she saw her husband go up to the opposite hillside to dig the ground, Wei Shaolan came over to bring tea to her husband, and when she sat on the edge of the ground and drank tea, she said to her husband, "Did our mother tell you?" The husband let out a long sigh and said, "I have said it." Wei Shaolan asked, "What did she say?" said the husband, "and still say that, don't let it be beaten." Wei Shaolan asked, "Then what did you say?" said the husband with a sigh, "what can I say? Wei Shaolan was silent for a while, and then said to her husband, "If I get rid of this child, I'm afraid I won't be able to have children again." The husband was shocked and asked, "Why?" Wei Shaolan said, "You don't know, women just make men cheap, and they can't have children anymore." Or, which of the women you see who has been in a brothel can still have children?" said the husband, "You have never been in a brothel, what are you afraid of?" Wei Shaolan sighed in a low voice and said, "But I am even more miserable and terrible than a brothel, you don't know, those Japanese devils are simply more terrible than devils and beasts." The husband listened to her words, looked at her with his eyes for a long time, and then, bowing his head, said sadly and helplessly, "Otherwise, listen to our mother." ”
