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

In the evening, her mother-in-law called her to a deserted place outside the cave and asked her, "Are you pregnant?" The mother-in-law is a shrewd and capable woman, and the mother-in-law is almost in charge of everything in the family, so she said to her mother-in-law, "I haven't had a period for two or three months." The mother-in-law nodded and said, "Let me touch your belly." Wei Shaolan loosened the belt and asked her mother-in-law to put her hand in and touch her stomach. The mother-in-law touched it for a while, then asked her to pull off her pants, put her ear to her stomach and listened for a while, and then said to her, "It's pregnant, what are you going to do?" Wei Shaolan replied while lifting his pants, "Chan Xian said he doesn't want this child, let me get rid of it quickly." The mother-in-law said worriedly, "Niuniu is dead, and if you kill this child, then when will you have another child?" Wei Shaolan said, "I am still young, and when I raise my body, I can regenerate." "Because she didn't want this child either, she hated the Japanese to death. The mother-in-law thought for a while and said, "Otherwise, you can go to Xu Langzhong with me tomorrow, let him grab some medicine, and beat the child out." ”

The next morning, after breakfast, the sky was a little gloomy, and the cold wind kept howling in the valley. Wei Shaolan followed her mother-in-law and husband towards the outside of the mountain. In order to escape the sweep of the Japanese, they did not take the straight road leading to the village. Instead, he walked around the bend on a field path. They went around the village, crossed the road from the edge of the village, and walked about three or five miles before they came into a wood.

Suddenly, two young men jumped out of the woods, pointed guns at them, and interrogated them. As soon as the two young men saw that they were villagers from the village who came to find Xu Langzhong, they let them go. walked out of the woods, walked two or three miles, and arrived at Xiajiatun, where Xu Langzhong's family lived. Because there are militiamen standing guard on the other side of the woods, there are still some families living in Xiajiatun Village. Seeing that there were still people living in this village, Wei Shaolan felt that the people in this village were really bold.

came to Xu Langzhong's house, knocked on the door, and Xu Langzhong asked them to sit down in the room where the patient was diagnosed and the medicine was obtained. Wei Shaolan used to bring his children here to see a doctor. At that time, there were hundreds of Chinese herbs in this room alone, so the whole room was almost full. For now, however, the room was empty, except for a table and a few chairs. There are also very few herbs. Presumably to prevent the Japanese from coming to sweep up.

Xu Langzhong had followed Luo Xianxian to the cave in Niuweichong a few days ago to treat Wei Shaolan's child. Therefore, when we meet again, we are all more familiar. Wei Shaolan asked Xu Langzhong, "The devil soldiers often drive from the other side of the road, so you dare to live in the village?" Xu Langzhong said, "It's okay, the son of the Jia family in the village ran back from Guilin, and brought three soldiers of the national army." The people of the village paid them to hire them, and let them bring some young people from the village to stand guard for everyone. Whether it is day or night, as soon as the devils come, they will shoot and call the police, and when everyone hears the gunshots, they will run to the woods or the mountains to hide. ”

Xu Langzhong asked Luo Xianxian, "What happened to the child?" Luo Xianxian said sadly, "It's dead, it's buried." Xu Langzhong said, "At that time, as soon as I saw the child, I didn't even have a pulse, so I knew that it would not work." Then he asked Wei Shaolan's mother-in-law, "What are you doing today?" The mother-in-law pointed to Wei Shaolan and said to Xu Langzhong, "Doctor Xu, I won't tell you anything, my daughter-in-law was captured by the Japanese three months ago and escaped from the turret a few days ago. The damn Japanese were all animals, and not only did they kill my granddaughter, but they also impregnated my daughter-in-law. We came to you today just to ask you to grab some medicine and help her get rid of the evil seeds in her stomach. ”

Xu Langzhong looked at Wei Shaolan's face for a while, gave her a pulse for a while, and said to Wei Shaolan's mother-in-law in a very worried tone, "I see that your daughter-in-law's face and pulse are very weak and messy, if she is allowed to have a baby, it will not only be harmful to her body, but also may lose her fertility." Wei Shaolan was not too afraid, but her husband and mother-in-law were shocked and hurriedly asked, "What should you do?" Xu Langzhong said, "I just explained the situation to you, and it is up to you to decide what to do." ”

The mother-in-law asked Wei Shaolan, "What do you say?" Wei Shaolan said calmly, "I am from your Luo family, I will do whatever you say." The mother-in-law asked her son, "What do you say?" Luo Xianxian thought for a while and said coldly, "I don't want this child, so I'd better kill it." But the mother-in-law said to her son, "If you kill this child, maybe you won't be able to have children again?" Luo Xianxian said, "Although Shaolan was frightened and devastated, she is still young, she can recover quickly, and maybe she will be able to have children in the future." Xu Langzhong immediately explained, "I can't guarantee that your daughter-in-law won't be able to have children in the future, but I still want to say that she may not be able to have children in the future." Then he said to Wei Shaolan's mother-in-law, "I have seen many women and said that they will never have children again, and they really have never had children." Of course, you can only use this as a reference. ”

Hearing this, the mother-in-law was silent for a while, and then said to Xu Langzhong, "Otherwise, let's go back and discuss it with his father again." Xu Langzhong reiterated twice, "My words can only be a reference, and the final idea has to be taken by yourself." So saying, he sent them out of the house.

It was noon when we returned home, and everyone could take care of the meal, so we found a secluded place to sit together and discuss the matter. Wei Shaolan's mother-in-law told his wife what Xu Langzhong said, and asked his wife to express her position. The wife said to her son and daughter-in-law, "Then give birth to the child, or in the future, when you are old, you will not even have a child, who will provide for you in old age?" But the son said stubbornly, "I don't want this Japanese devil's child, if he is born, everyone will know that he is a Japanese child, doesn't this make us all ashamed and unable to hold up in front of others for the rest of our lives?" Then, the son said to his parents, " You should also take a good look at the burned houses and looted things in the village, which were not done by the Japanese, who burned, killed, robbed, and raped us, and did all kinds of evil, so that we could not return to our homes, and lived in caves for many years. Who does not hate them to death, such a child of robbers and demons, I resolutely do not want. As he spoke, he threw the cigarette in his hand to the ground.

The mother-in-law asked Wei Shaolan again, "What is your idea?" Wei Shaolan listened to her husband finish what he had to say, and said, "If Xian Xian says to kill it, he will beat it down." I agree. The mother-in-law let out a long sigh and said, "Your father and I don't agree with you to kill the child." Xu Langzhong said, if Shaolan kills this child, I am afraid that he will never be able to give birth in the future, we can't watch you grow old slowly, and there is not even a child in front of you. Besides, this child is also a life. So, this time, it's up to me and your father to keep this kid behind. When Luo Xianxian heard this, he was very angry and said, "Anyway, I don't want this child, and I won't be good to him when I am born." So saying, he got up to leave, as a sign of displeasure. But the mother-in-law said arrogantly, "Even if you don't want this child, I will raise it with your father." Let's see if we can raise him as an adult. ”
