Chapter 44: Brother (2)

Outside the rescue room, Ansu kept crying. Xiang Hui hadn't recovered from the accident just now.

What does He Xiangnuan mean by his younger brother?

In fact, Xiang Hui had already guessed it, but he couldn't believe it. His name is Xiang Nuan, and he is his elder brother Xiang Hui. He finally understood why this man always looked at him with kindness. Because that's the innate affection between their brothers.

The door to the operating room finally opened, and the doctor said that the patient's head was badly damaged and that he had not yet passed the dangerous period, so the family was mentally prepared that it was very likely that he would never wake up.

After hearing the news, Xiang Peihong, who rushed to hear the news, stumbled, if it wasn't for Xiang Hui helping him, he would have fallen. He cried bitterly: "Xiang Nuan, my son ......"

Xiang Hui knew that his father had a short marriage, but he never knew that he had an older brother.

When Xiang Peihong cut the queue in the countryside, because he was the youngest and thin, he looked like he couldn't pick up his shoulders and couldn't lift his hands, and no one wanted to ask for it, and in the end it was Uncle He who led him back. There are only three people in Uncle He's family, Uncle He, Aunt He and their daughter He Mengyun. Although Xiang Peihong is young, he is well-born, talented, and writes good calligraphy, which is very likable. Later, when he married He Mengyun, many people talked behind his back that Uncle He brought him back to ask him to be his son-in-law.

In those days, the life of the educated youth was more difficult than that of the peasants, but Uncle He's family was very good to Xiang Peihong. Xiang Peihong has been in the countryside for many years, and he has been in love with He Mengyun for a long time. Although the two secretly had affection, they never pierced the window paper. At that time, many of the decentralized educated youths were still alone when they reached the age of talking about marriage, not because their hearts were like water, nor because their eyes were above the top. In fact, the hard life makes them want to get spiritual comfort even more, and there are many educated youths and local young men and women who have feelings for each other, but many of them are sensibly staying at the stage of falling in love, because what they are most looking forward to is not to return to the city one day. The same is true for Xiang Peihong. But day after day, year after year of disappointment, they thought that they would never have the chance to return to the city, so they resigned themselves to their fate in the countryside to marry and have children. The combination of Xiang Peihong and He Mengyun is largely due to the efforts of the He family and his wife. After marriage, Xiang Peihong and He Mengyun can be regarded as happy and happy.

Two years later, the documents for the educated youths to return to the city came down, and how many educated youths were so excited that they cried bitterly when they received the news, and the educated youths who had already started a family in the local area were faced with a difficult choice. Even if the spouse and children return to the city with them, they do not have a hukou, and it is a question whether they can arrange a job, let alone support a wife and children. As a result, some people choose to give up returning to the city and stay in the countryside for the sake of their spouses and children, while others choose to divorce and return to the city alone. Xiang Peihong has been torn between choosing to return to the city and staying. Because of the He family's kindness to him, he remembered it in his heart, but the outside world also had great temptations for him.

Xiang Peihong was born in a cadre family, received a good education since he was a child, and has always hoped to be admitted to university in the future and get ahead. Going to the countryside was a last resort, and now that he has the opportunity to go back to the city to take the college entrance examination and go to university, how can he give up. Not having children is even less of a stumbling block for him, so he filed for divorce from He Mengyun.

The He family and his wife didn't understand, and their relatives persuaded each other in every way, but He Mengyun, who was the party concerned, remained silent. In the end, under the scolding of the He couple, He Mengyun agreed to the divorce with tears in her eyes.

There was a news that in the late 70s, many married marriages and families were shattered by the shock, such as the divorce of 3,000 young couples in Xishuangbanna Farm in five days. If it is only a case of educated youths abandoning their families and children to return to the city, they will definitely be spurned and scolded by the backbone, but if this phenomenon is widespread in the army returning to the city, it can only be said to be a tragedy of the times.

The procedures for returning to the city were quickly completed, and when Xiang Peihong walked out of He's house, he felt a sense of liberation. This is not his home, his home is in the city.

After returning to the city, Xiang Peihong took the college entrance examination that year and was admitted to a prestigious school majoring in law, and it has been smooth sailing since then.

Soon after Xiang Peihong returned to the city, He Mengyun learned that she was pregnant. Her family persuaded her to get rid of the child and start a new life, but she insisted on keeping the child after losing faith in her marriage. The following spring, she gave birth to a son. Filing for divorce from Peihong broke the hearts of the He family, and they decided not to let the child's surname Xiang.

Xiang Peihong's ruthlessness chilled He Mengyun's heart, the child was born in a sunny spring, so he hoped that the child could warm people's hearts, so he was named He Xiangnuan.

With the death of their parents one after another, the life of He Mengyun's mother and son has become increasingly difficult. But having her children by her side gave her spiritual sustenance, especially since her children were smarter and more sensible than the other children in the village. She had to admit that Xiang Nuan inherited his father's good genes, smart and beautiful.

He Xiangnuan has been very smart and empathetic since he was a child, and everyone in the village likes him very much. Because he often went to the propaganda room of the village committee to play, he watched the second uncle Li in the village write big characters, which made him very interested in calligraphy. So I started to learn calligraphy. Watching the educated youth who stayed in the village play chess, he learned to play Chinese chess, and he played it very well. He also asked his mother about his father. He Mengyun said that he would tell him when he grew up, so he stopped asking. The child's sensibility actually makes He Mengyun even more sad, because sensibility is more of a factor in the growth environment.

When He Xiangnuan was twelve years old, He Mengyun died of illness. Before she died, she told her son who his father was and where, and asked him to go to his father.

When Xiang Peihong saw a twelve-year-old child who claimed to be his son, he was stunned. He had no doubt that this was his son, because this child named He Xiangnuan was almost exactly the same as when he was a child. After some conversation, he liked this smart and sensible son in his heart. It's just that how to place him has become a big problem.

At that time, Xiang Peihong was already an official of the Municipal Bureau of Justice and had already started a family. His wife, Zou Mingfang, came from a good background and is now an official of the Audit Bureau, and she has a lively and lovely son. It is absolutely impossible to bring Xiang Nuan home, and Zou Mingfang will definitely not accept it. When he was chasing Zou Mingfang, she knew that she was divorced, but she had no children, so she agreed to date him. Now that a son suddenly appears, the family will definitely be disturbed.

Xiang Peihong thought about it carefully and decided to send Xiang Nuan to a boarding school in G City. When he discussed with Xiang Nuan, he didn't expect his sensible son to agree in one bite. In fact, the discussion is just formalism, but he doesn't want to hurt his son's heart too much, after all, he owes him too much, so before he talks to his son, he thinks of a bunch of reasons to persuade his son. But I didn't expect my son to be so sensible, and the words he prepared were completely useless. He had no excuse to refuse his son's offer to visit him often. How can such a well-behaved son not be concerned?

For Xiang Nuan, who has not had a father by his side since he was a child, suddenly having a father makes him happier than anything else. At a young age, he knew that his father had another family, and for that family, he was a superfluous person, so he would not embarrass his father if he was sensible. In fact, he didn't have a choice. As long as his father could visit him often, he felt content.

Xiang Peihong really went to see Xiang Nuan every once in a while, his son not only had good grades, but also surprised him with his beautiful calligraphy. Director Xiang's good handwriting is a good story in the judicial system, and his son's good handwriting is even more proud of him, so after returning home, he also forced Xiang Hui to learn calligraphy. It's just that Xiang Hui is not interested in calligraphy, and it is very painful to be forced to learn. Xiang Peihong also found that his eldest son was very talented in painting, so he found him a professional art teacher and carefully trained him.

As Xiang Nuan continues to grow up, the relationship with his father is getting deeper and deeper, and the father and son almost talk about everything. For his younger brother, who has never met, Xiang Nuan also has a special feeling. When he learned from his father that his brother had killed by mistake and that his father had to shield him, he felt angry, but more heartbroken. But he could neither blame his father nor hurt his younger brother, so he felt that the only thing he could do was to atone for his father and younger brother. He hid all this from his father.

It's just that the victim has no family, and in this case, the person who suffered the most was the girl named Ansu, so he came to Ansu's side. This companion is sixteen years. It was Xiang Nuan's unconditional companionship and help in the past 16 years that kept Ansu from embarking on an evil path in hatred and despair.

Xiang Nuan, as his name suggests, is indeed as warm as his mother hoped. His smile is always so warm. An Su has become accustomed to Xiang Nuan's company and his warm smile. But when one day the things she had become accustomed to might disappear, she was afraid. It turns out that Xiang Nuan is not only a friend, but also a relative, a relative she can't lose. Xiang Nuan's feelings for her, she didn't know it, but she kept clinging to the memories of the past and pretended not to see it.

She understood too late! (To be continued.) )
