Chapter 288: Sea of Light
The sun shines on the surface of the earth, and the heat rising on the surface becomes distorted. There is an ultra-high temperature 'summer' that lasts for 8 months a year, and this is Iraq in the Middle East, which is one of the most oil-rich countries in the world, and because of the geographical environment, oil here is cheaper than fresh water.
Iraq, a country that is supported only by oil. After the Second World War, the people here had nothing left but the oil that brought them a solid dollar to every household. This also makes people who want to make money in the world smell the strong smell of money here, that is, the strong smell of copper attracts countless people who want to make a fortune to go to this rich country.
The story begins in this rich country!!
At a hospital in Baghdad, the capital of Iraq, the lights above the operating room show a red light. A man was very anxious pacing back and forth outside the corridor, his hands folded, his mouth muttering, and from time to time nervously looking in the direction of the operating room.
At this time, a man in a suit and a woman quickly ran towards the anxious man: "How is it?
"No, it's still in the operating room. Brother, sister-in-law, why are you here now? I don't have any experience. ”
"Ahh
The two spoke in Korean, because they were both Koreans, and he went to the Middle East to do second-hand trade. That is, some second-hand cars from Korea and Japan are transported and sold here. In this era of material scarcity, it can only be said that people in the Middle East have a lot of stupid money, and the second-hand car price here can completely buy a new car in South Korea, and the profit is still quite large.
The young man smiled a little reassuring at this time: "Haha... Aren't I nervous alone, brother, sister-in-law, it's good that you're here. "Here, he has no relatives, no one to talk to. So when he faced his daughter-in-law giving birth to a child for the first time, he couldn't help anything except listening to his daughter-in-law's painful screams, and he was a little overwhelmed.
Now when he looks at the eldest brother who brought him over to make money, his heart has settled down a little.
His eldest brother's surname: Li. He came to the Middle East to do oil trade, and he used to be Brother Li's assistant in South Korea, and after Brother Li arrived in the Middle East, he brought him over, and at the same time gave him directions, asking him to do second-hand trade. Today, his business here is doing quite well in the used car trade.
The sister-in-law in his mouth is a middle-aged woman who has the characteristics of an Asian woman. She smiled and patted him on the shoulder, relieved: "Don't worry, it's okay to give birth, it'll be fine in a while." If it's you, have you figured it out? Are you going to let him become Iraqi citizens, or are you going to go back to Korean nationality? You should think about that now. ”
In this era, although the hospital can check whether it is a man or a woman, they will never tell you. Because there is still a 'patriarchal' mentality in this era.
"This... This.." The man was obviously a little hesitant, according to their thinking, the man should return to Korean nationality. However, Korean men are required to serve as adults, and the problem is that there is constant friction between the North and the South. What if, what if their own children are assigned to the north-south border?
Every parent in the world wants their children to be well, especially their generation knows the horrors of war. Moreover, the '625 incident' broke out in South Korea not long ago. So there is an old saying, 'If you are not afraid of 10,000, you are afraid of what if'
10,000 yuan can be repaid one day. What if, if something goes wrong, it's too late to remedy it.
Brother Li saw his distressed younger brother and he also said: "Xiao Zhang, now that the country has just stabilized, who knows what will happen in the 20 years after Xiao Zhang comes out? When he is older, let's send him to become an American citizen and let him study there. You also know that my o-ma is over there, so I can take care of him. ”
When she saw that the two big men decided the child's future life so easily, her sister-in-law was dissatisfied: "You haven't even written the eight characters yet, and you are thinking about the child's study? Do you want to arrange the daughter-in-law for him? Do you take the wisdom of the mother in your eyes?"
"Hahaha.. Yes, and the future daughter-in-law, hey.. Don't think about our family Eungui, it's more than 10 years older. Wife, why don't we work hard to get a daughter-in-law for Xiao Xiaozhang?"
"Yikes... You..."
The gentle woman was about to erupt when the lights in the operating room went out, and an Iraqi nurse came out with a child in her arms, and she said a bunch of words they didn't understand, roughly like mother and child were safe or something.
When they saw the child, they immediately opened the cloth wrapped around the child to see if there was any 'little pepper'.
"Male, male, really male. Hahaha..."
The woman slapped the laughing Xiao Zhang on the back, and then stretched out her hand and asked for the child: "Give me the child, I will go and show the wisdom, you, the father, record the birth time of the child." Because they couldn't understand each other's words, they had to figure out the time of birth by themselves.
Xiao Zhang smiled honestly and handed the child to his sister-in-law, and then stood in front of the hospital clock and recorded: "May 6, 1985, 2:31 pm. ”
.........
A few years have passed since spring and winter, and the weather here is still only hot, but at that time, the 'little Zhang' who was born in the hospital already had his own name: Zhang Junxiu. As his name suggests, at least he is handsome and excellent now.
Zhang Junxiu sat in front of the piano stupidly at this time and ended today's practice. He is very strange, he will appear in such a state of emptiness from time to time, and of course, Junxiu's family is also used to his son's emptiness. At first, they were worried about whether there was something wrong with their son, so they went to the hospital for a check-up, but the hospital concluded that there was no problem and all indicators were healthy.
The reason why Junsu is inexplicably empty is because he always feels that he has some strange memories in his mind. He wanted to dig out the images that appeared in his mind, but every time he went to dig, those inexplicable memories in his mind disappeared again, and emptying became his habit.
But the things in those strange memories make Junsu himself indescribable, he always feels as if he knows a lot of things, but he doesn't know what they will be.
It's as if you only know what you know when you get in touch with it, like when it comes to language. Since his family began to teach Junsu to speak Korean, his progress has been very slow. However, it was revealed later in learning English, because they were in a foreign country, so English was a necessary language of communication, but the problem was that their son's talent in learning English was revealed, and he began to learn bilingual (Korean, English) at the age of 2 and now his mother tongue seems to have become English.
At the age of 3, he began to learn Chinese, and until now, he can speak fluent Mandarin.
At the age of 4, he learned piano and violin, and now he is almost 6 years old (7 years old according to the Korean algorithm), and after more than two years of study, his musical talent has been fully revealed.
Just when Junxiu was empty, a pair of small hands grabbed the corner of his clothes and shook it: "Oppa, play the piano for me, give you candy." ”
With a beautiful smile, Junsu looked at the little girl who had bought him with candy with a smile in his eyes, and he got out of his seat and picked her up and put her next to him before sitting back. He tilted his head to look at the little girl and asked, "Shun-kyu, do you like to sing?"
The little girl kept nodding her head like a chicken pecking rice: "Well, I like it very much, I like it like it like oppa." ”
At this time, a woman's voice appeared: "Shun-gyu, hurry up and come here, don't disturb Junso's practice." ”
The little girl turned her head to look at her mother aggrievedly: "O-Ma, oppa wants to teach me to sing." ”
Junsu turned to the little girl's mother and smiled and said, "O-ma (godmother)... It's okay, I'm done with today's practice, I'll just take Shun-kyu. ”
"Alright then, Jun-so, I'll peel some fruit for you. ”
This little girl is the child of Brother Lee, whom Junxiu's father respects very much, and her name is Lee Soon-gyu. He was born in 1989, the fourth year after Junsu was born, and both were born in the same month as May. In the past, Brother Li jokingly said that he would 'make' a daughter-in-law for Junxiu, but I didn't expect such a situation to really occur.
In fact, both families knew that it was all a joke at the beginning, and as for their children's future emotions, they still felt that they should be allowed to fall in love freely. Of course, it would be best if the two of them could walk together, and they couldn't and wouldn't be reluctant. After all, the days are still long, and the two children are still young, so there is no point in talking about this now.
Several adults are now gathered in the living room, their faces all full of worry.
"Xiao Zhang, the atmosphere of international negotiations with Iraq is becoming more and more tense, and the US Secretary of State and the Iraqi Foreign Minister held their last meeting before the war in Geneva, but both sides believe that there is no room for compromise and the talks have not achieved results. This time, I'm afraid it's really not far from war. ”
