Chapter 49, Shu Yue's journey to find relatives

The music sounded, with the "March of the Volunteers", the national flag was slowly raised, and the scene was solemn, Shu Yue had never experienced such a scene, and felt a little lost for a while. At the end of the flag-raising ceremony, Li Ya saw that Shu Yue was a little depressed, and couldn't help but wonder and asked, "What's wrong?"

Shu Yue said: "Watching them raise the national flag, solemn and proud, but what about me? I don't have a country. ”

Li Ya comforted: "As long as you don't dislike this country, you can also think that you are a person from this country, no matter which country your nationality is, you love this place, you have a sense of belonging here, you are a person from this country." ”

"You're right, my parents asked me to come back first and inquire, our family still has relatives in China. Now that everyone is allowed to return to China to visit their relatives, they will be able to come back next year. For so many years, they have been thinking about coming back to see, looking for relatives, and sweeping graves. Shu Yue said.

Li Ya said: "It's just right, today we will go to see the Great Wall, and tomorrow we will go to your hometown to have a look." I don't know where your hometown is. ”

Shu Yue said: "Shanghai." ”

"Are you still from Shanghai?" Li Ya said with a smile.

Shu Yue said: "My grandfather is a native of Shanghai, and my grandfather moved to Shanghai in 28. In the mainland, my grandfather has no relatives on his side, and my grandfather's grandmother has a younger brother, and I don't know where I went at that time, and I don't know if there is any news about this trip. ”

At that time, in the years of war and chaos, there were not many relatives left on both sides of Shu Yue's family, and after leaving the mainland, only one relative with no news remained on the mainland.

Arriving at Jundu Mountain in Yanqing County by car, climbing to the top of the Great Wall, and taking a tour, Shu Yue set up a camera to take pictures.

Looking at the Great Wall built along the rolling mountains, Shu Yue couldn't help but sigh that not only the diligence of the ancestors was preserved here, but also the history of the ancestors' resistance to invasion. The Great Wall is a miracle, but it had to be built to ward off invasions.

Back in the city, it was already completely dark, and all three of them were tired, so they simply ate and rested.

The next day he left for Shanghai, and Wang Jianguo was still sent to accompany him. Li Ya and Shu Yue are now returning to China to visit relatives, not considered natives, but there is no relevant unit to issue a letter of introduction. In addition, sending people to accompany the reception also reflects the importance attached to those who return to China to visit relatives. With them, it's much easier to get around.

When they arrived in Shanghai, they stayed in a guest house, and then Li Ya and Shu Yue, accompanied by Wang Jianguo and Shanghai staff, searched for them according to the address. The street names used before liberation have long been lost, and it is still determined by the old people.

After asking a few families in the alley, I finally got the news, a young man said that he had come back in May, and an old man in his seventies recalled that he had also come back to look for relatives in the past five years. Speaking of the name, the old man also smiled and said: "Wang Xiaoer of the old Wang family, the big name Wang Lizhi, I watched him grow up." At that time, he was still in high school, and he led students to engage in propaganda all day long, and then suddenly disappeared. When he came back in the past five years, I learned from our chats that he had engaged in propaganda to attract the attention of the Kuomintang and had been arranged to take refuge in other places. Later, he joined the army, joined the party, and followed the army to fight everywhere. ”

"By the way, he also left me a letter to give to you when I see you, and I will bring it to you. The old man suddenly remembered and said.

Shu Yue took the envelope, opened it and read it, wiped her tears, bowed to the old man and thanked him, and the old man said with a smile: "Entrusted by people, loyal to people." Fortunately, you came early, otherwise I wouldn't have seen the descendants of the Wang family's sisters. ”

Li Ya smiled: "I can take a look at your old illness, it should be cured." You have to take care of your body when you are old, and Grandma Shu Yue is in good health now, maybe the two of you will be able to meet soon. ”

After carefully diagnosing the pulse, Li Ya said with a smile: "You are old and this is a ** disease, the cold enters the body, and now that you are old, your body function is declining, so it will be very serious, I brought a silver needle, and put it in the guest house, you and we went over, acupuncture and moxibustion three times are almost the same, and then a pair of medicines, drink a week to heal." ”

When the business was done, he took the old man and his youngest grandson with him on the return trip.

Back at the guest house, Li Ya asked the person who took the money to buy medicine, picked up the silver needle himself, and began to give acupuncture to the old man. Originally, such a disease could be cured by Li Ya at one time, and he didn't even need medicine, but this was too shocking, so it was divided into three times.

As soon as the silver needle entered his body, the old man's eyes lit up, and he glanced at Li Ya meaningfully. The old man is old and well-informed, and he knows that Li Ya must have practiced qigong and other things, so he can feel a warm air on the silver needle during acupuncture and swim along the meridians.

The old man had heard the elders talk about this kind of acupuncture technique, and when the famous doctor was able to use qigong acupuncture, he was already in his sixties, and now Li Ya is so young.

After half an hour of acupuncture, the old man got up and moved around and said happily: "Okay, I haven't been so relaxed for many years." ”

After eating together and arranging for the old man and his grandson to stay, Li Ya and the old man's grandson went to the kitchen to boil the medicine, these medicines were taken for a week, and Li Ya couldn't delay here for a week, so he had to teach him to boil the medicine.

After dinner, acupuncture is done again, and then the medicine is taken. The last acupuncture the next morning, after taking the medicine, Li Ya said: "I don't need acupuncture now, I take the medicine twice a day, once in the morning and once in the evening, and I have divided the medicine." ”

Seeing off their grandchildren, Li Ya and Shu Yue also left Shanghai and went to Suzhou.

Shu Yue's uncle and grandfather served as the revolutionary, life committee, committee member, and director in Suzhou, and Li Ya said: "Suzhou, we can take a look at the garden, Taihu Lake, ancient town, and Jiangnan water town! By the way, there is also Shajiabang, the Shajiabang in the Peking Opera "Shajiabang". ”

When I arrived in Suzhou, I found a place, confirmed that it was right, stepped forward and knocked on the door, an old lady opened the door, and Li Ya asked, "Auntie, is this Wang Lizhi's house?"

The old lady looked puzzled, and Shu Yue hurriedly said, "It's Wang Weiguo." The old lady remembered that her wife had once called Wang Lizhi and said, "Yes, do you have anything to do with him?"

Shu Yue said: "I am Wang Limei's granddaughter Shu Yue. ”

When the old lady heard that Shu Yue was the granddaughter of her sister who she had never met, she hurriedly let her into the house. Put things down, chat, and ask each other how the years have passed. The two of them were in tears, and Li Ya felt a little uncomfortable when he heard it.

When Wang Weiguo came back from work the next night, Shu Yue's uncle and grandmother opened the door and said happily: "Someone from my sister's house is here." ”

After Shu Yue finished speaking, Wang Weiguo sighed: "After so many years, I finally found it, it's not easy?" Wang Weiguo left Shanghai at the beginning of the third and seventh years, and Shu Yue's grandfather and his family hurriedly went abroad for refuge, this difference is more than 40 years.

Seeing that her husband was excited, the old lady hurriedly comforted: "Don't be excited, don't be excited, you are not in good health, don't be excited." ”

Shu Yue asked with concern, "Is Grandpa Uncle in poor health?"

Li Ya took over and said: "Over the years, you have been criticized, fought, closed the cowshed, decentralized, modified, and built, even the iron man has tossed you so much that there is only a handful of bones left, uncle and grandfather, this is lucky." ”

Wang Weiguo smiled: "Yes, I am lucky, anyway, I survived." Those who didn't survive and committed suicide in despair, they are really unfortunate. At that time, I was bent on thinking, no matter how hard it is, I must persevere, and see how long they are rampant. ”

Shu Yue asked Li Ya, "Can you cure your uncle's illness?" Seeing Li Ya's medical skills, Shu Yue had some hope in her heart.

Li Ya said with a smile: "There shouldn't be much of a problem, my uncle and grandfather have suffered from stomach problems due to long-term irregular diet, long-term malnutrition and a lot of dark injuries left on the body, so the physical condition is bad, and it can be recuperated in a month after treatment." ”

Uncle Shu Yue's grandmother heard that Li Ya said that it could be cured, and hurriedly asked, "What medicine do you need, I'll buy it." ”

Li Ya said with a smile: "Uncle, I studied Chinese medicine, and the medicine I prescribed is also Chinese medicine, so you can't tell the difference when you go." Forget it tonight, go buy it tomorrow. Now, I'll give my uncle and grandfather a few stitches first. ”

Although Wang Weiguo's body looked bad, after Li Ya checked the pulse, he found that the symptoms were worse than the symptoms revealed. In about fifty minutes, Li Ya rolled twice in a row, then collected the needle and wiped the sweat on his forehead, and said: "Two more injections in each of the two days after tomorrow, and two courses of medicine for fourteen days, and slowly recuperate for about a month." ”
