Chapter 21: Tears out of the country

Hong Bo's words were just halfway through, and Sun Limei, who was following Hong Bo, stepped on him, Hong Bo "ouch", looked at Sun Limei angrily and shouted: "Sun Limei!" What are you stepping on me for? ”

Sun Limei bent down slightly, made a funny gesture to express her sorry, looked at Hong Bo with a wicked smile and said, "Ouch, I'm sorry!" I accidentally stepped on you, but the bones of your feet are so hard, and it hurts to cut my feet. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info"

Ye Xiaoshuai only heard half of Hong Bo's words, and felt as if something was wrong, so he immediately asked: "Hong Bo, do you mean that my parents were washed away by the water?" How's it going? Hurry up and tell me! Immediately, tears filled his eyes.

Sun Limei immediately said: "Ye Guanghua, don't worry, it's nothing serious, it's just washed away by the water, I heard that my head seems to be a little dizzy, and there is a small injury cut by a thorn, it's nothing, you can rest assured, you have to take care of the injury and go to class." Sun Limei smiled as if she was relaxed.

At this time, Hong Bo realized that he had almost made a big mistake, and if it wasn't for Sun Limei's stopping, he would have told the truth, but he still said with a somewhat unconvinced look: "Don't I also want to tell Ye Guanghua this?" ”

Hong Bo and Sun Limei are Ye Xiaoshuai's classmates, both are two years older than Ye Xiaoshuai, Hong Bo is also Ye, but many people don't even call him by surname, until he is old, people only call him Hong Bo, and some people even think that his surname is Hong, and when he grows up, someone always calls him Mr. Hong.

Sun Limei was brought by his mother when he remarried, his adoptive father's name was Ye Huairen, and Hong Bo's father Ye Huaizhi was a sibling, Ye Huairen had three brothers, and the second was called Ye Huaili.

As the elder brother of the two brothers, he was a little incompetent and did not play a role model, only the old Ye Huaizhi had some style of his own, and he had many differences from the two elder brothers.

Their family used to be a big family in Ye Jiawa, and his father Ye Xiaolian was Hong Bo's father, a famous squire in Jinshan County, in Jinshan County, the provincial capital and nearby Shipai, Nanyang, Wuhan and other places, operating grain, rice, cloth, tobacco, tea, spices, timber, butcher shops, pawns and other businesses, in the Japanese puppet period served as a period of maintenance president, in the procurement of materials, storage, transportation and underground personnel rescue, etc., also provided a lot of help for the Anti-Japanese War.

But the reputation among the villagers is not very good, and he often jokes about the names of his three sons, saying: "The old cousin is benevolent and wise, and lacks faith and righteousness." ”

This may be the reason why their family no longer uses moral characters when naming Xiao Hongbo!

Although Ye Xiaoshuai was relieved a lot, he still had some doubts, Sun Limei may have stepped on Hong Bo deliberately in order not to let Hong Bo say everything, no matter what, as long as there is no big problem, Ye Xiaoshuai was so comforted in his heart.

When the students went to class, Ye Xiaoshuai moved the bundle of books that Teacher Zhen put at the foot of his bed to his side and slowly opened the bundled strips of cloth, counting a total of 26 books, most of which were ancient books, and a small part were novels, essay collections, poems, music scores, chess scores, calligraphy and so on published during the Republic of China.

There are all kinds of disciplines, all kinds of schools, all kinds of genres, and all kinds of thoughts, almost all of which are Confucianism, Taoism, Buddhism, metaphysics, medical skills, and strategies, plus poetry, calligraphy, rituals, and music.

If you can really learn to convey and be flexible, you can't become a great columnist, and you must be a good master of strategy.

Ye Xiaoshuai picked up "Warring States Policy" again and flipped to Qin Ce 5 and read it: "The king of Qin said: 'The minister steals the king's lightness and is easy to Chu and humble Han Ye. Minister: The king, the army is victorious but not arrogant, uncle, the lord is not angry. Victory is not arrogant, so it can serve the world; covenant but not angry, so that it can be from neighbors. Now Wang Guangdewei and Zhao are lightly out of alignment, arrogant; Defeat Yiyang, not sympathetic to Chu Jiao, angry also. Arrogance is not the business of the master. The ministers are worried about the king's worries and do not take it. "Poetry" cloud: "There is no beginning, there is an end." Therefore the only thing that is important to the first king is the beginning and the end. How do you know that? Xi Zhi Boyao remnants of Fan and Bank of China, besieged Jinyang, and died for the three laughs; Wu Wangfu sent to live in more than Huiji, better than Qi in Ailing, for the encounter of Huangchi, rude to the Song Dynasty, then with Goujian birds, died in the dry tunnel; Liang Jun attacked Chu Shengqi, controlled the soldiers of Zhao and Han, and drove the twelve princes to Mengjin with the son of heaven, and the son died, and he was confined to Qin with a crown. The three are not reactive, they can start but not end. ……”

Suddenly, two voices sounded outside the door: "Grandson! "Apprentice!" Immediately, the door was pushed open, and Liu Binghui and Xing Tao walked quickly to Ye Xiaoshuai's bed, followed by Ye Xingbang, Ye Hehua, Zhang Hua and Huang Yuxin.

Ye Xiaoshuai happily shouted one by one: "Dad! Master Daddy! Uncle! Greatly! Senior brother! Cousin! You're all here. Then he poked his head out of the gap and put his eyes behind several people, looked at them, and asked, "Didn't my father and mother come?" ”

There was a moment of silence, no one spoke, no one answered.

All of a sudden, Ye Xiaoshuai seemed to realize something, cold tears suddenly filled his eyes, and he was spinning in a hurry, squeezing his eyes so spicy and astringent, his heart seemed to have been slammed by something, and he was so panicked that his lips kept trembling and squirming.

Liu Binghui held Ye Xiaoshuai in his arms, the tears in his eyes were also rolling, he didn't dare to look at Ye Xiaoshuai with his eyes, but kept saying, "It's okay!" It's okay! ”

Xing Tao also sat on the edge of the bed like Liu Binghui, patting Ye Xiaoshuai's back with his hand, and at the same time saying a lie that he had never said in his life: "Xiaohuazi, don't worry, your father, your mother, and your family are all fine." ”

The eyes of the people in the room were wet, and there was no one whose spirit was sunny, and whose faces were gloomy and whose hearts were damp.

Seeing this, Ye Xingbang immediately turned to laugh out loud: "Haha! Xiao Huazi, you see that the uncle's pants are all mud, so dirty, right? Do you think Uncle is so lazy? Ha ha! ”

This laughter is so strange, it contains a lot of bitterness: "Your father and your mother are going to change into clean clothes and come again." ”

Ye Xiaoshuai didn't seem to understand, opened his mouth with a pair of somewhat empty eyes, looked at Ye Xingbang and replied with a cold word: "Oh." ”

Then he walked back and forth on everyone's body and eyes a few times, and never asked anyone a word about his family, about his parents and grandmother, until he was an adult.

Liu Binghui, Xing Tao, Ye Xingbang, Zhen Hongbing, Ye Hehua, Wang Zhiwen, Zhang Hua, and Huang Yuxin did not sleep all night, and they have been arguing endlessly about Ye Xiaoshuai's future arrangements.

First of all, Zhen Hongbing said: "I told Xing Lao last time that Xiaohuazi should not continue to study here, the knowledge mastered by children is no longer what this school can teach, instead of living here and waiting to grow up, it is better to leave here to study freely, but his knowledge acquisition will be broader and more profound." Moreover, the current changes in his family should not leave him here. ”

Zhen Hongbing's proposition is that Ye Xiaoshuai should not only leave this school, but also leave the place of Yejiawa and change to a new living and learning environment, which is conducive to Ye Xiaoshuai's healthy physical and mental growth.

Zhen Hongbing's idea is very suitable for Liu Binghui's mind, in fact, he has long wanted to take Xiao Huazi away, for which he has also discussed with Wang Genwang, and also tried it in front of Ye Xingguo.

So he took Zhen Hongbing's words and said: "I also think that Mr. Zhen's words are correct, I will take Xiaohuazi away, whether it is studying or living in the provincial capital, it will be beneficial to Xiaohuazi, presumably the big guy should rest assured to hand over Xiaohuazi to me." ”

Ye Xingbang and Ye Hehua are both particularly disagreeable.

Ye Xingbang believes: "Personally, I and our Ye family will not agree, there are two reasons: first, our family concept here is very heavy, it is impossible to change it for a while, Xiaohuazi is the descendant of our Ye family, and it is impossible to hand it over to a foreign surname to raise, which will cause resentment and chaos within the Ye family; Second, Xiaohuazi is too young to let him accept too many things, which will cause the result of pulling out seedlings and fueling growth. In addition, leaving the countryside at a young age will weaken the identity of the family, and if he encounters such a big disaster in his family, his descendants abandon the family and run away, which is unfilial piety, and it is not allowed in our Ye family. ”

Ye Hehua is completely in agreement with Ye Xingguo, he said: "We know that Chief Liu and Teacher Zhen are both for the good of Xiaohuazi, and I and our Ye family are deeply grateful from the bottom of our hearts. However, it is inappropriate to ask Xiao Huazi to leave the Ye family at this time, and it is not good for us Ye family and Xiao Huazi. ”

Huang Yuxin is half of the Ye family, his father was a soldier who was stationed in Yejiawa during the Anti-Japanese War, and he belonged to the Ye family, so he supported Ye Xingbang and Ye Hehua's opinions, and also said: "Xiaohuazi is still too young, it's better not to go for the time being, and when he grows up a little, he will definitely go out to study, and at that time, he will have to trouble Chief Liu." ”

Wang Zhiwen was a centrist, but he raised the question of urgency and necessity, which caused a long debate.

He said: "Staying and leaving are very important for Xiaohuazi, there are advantages to staying, and there are disadvantages to leaving." However, should you tell Xiao Huazi about the changes in Xiao Huazi's family? What way to tell? How to tell him so that it does not affect his physical and mental health growth? This is important! ”

In this way, until dawn, no one came up with a statement that satisfied everyone.

This night, maybe it was because he hadn't slept in a clean and comfortable bed for a long time, or maybe it was because of the peace after experiencing fright, pain, loneliness and turmoil, Ye Xiaoshuai had fallen asleep a long time ago, and he slept so deeply and deeply, and had a long dream.

In the dream, he suddenly grew up, looking very strange, more than two meters tall, a head as big as a sieve, his hands were so long, his feet were so long, and he seemed to be being chased by something, and he seemed to be chasing something, but he couldn't move his feet, he couldn't walk if he wanted to, he couldn't run if he wanted to.

It seems that his body has been flying, sometimes east, then west, sometimes south, and suddenly north.

Sometimes there was no light all around, and there was not a single thing to be seen, but strange hisses, roars, howls, and screams, or sharp, or low-throat, or high-pitched, or empty, or long, or miserable, or long howls, and so on.

Sometimes in the colorful clouds, like the Jade Palace in a picture book, here he saw his grandmother, smiling at him from a far, far away, very warm and kind.

Grandma has a pair of big wings, a slight fan, the colorful clouds will dance happily, all kinds of colorful flowers, all kinds of butterflies, very beautiful.

Sometimes he was in the turbulent yellow sea, and the waves were dozens of meters high, turbid and hideous, as if they were about to swallow him.

Here he met his parents, who were also caught in the waves, stretching their hands into the air and waving eagerly, their heads disappearing in the waves, only to hear their hoarse shouts intermittently: "Xiao Huazi - Xiao Huazi - Xiao - Hua - Zi!" ”

It was in this hoarse shout that Ye Xiaoshuai woke up with a "wow" and cried! Long! Long! Ye Xiaoshuai got up.

walked to Liu Binghui's Xing Tao's room, bowed deeply to everyone in the room, bowed twice, bowed three times, and then knelt on the ground all of a sudden, and said to Liu Binghui: "Dad, I'll go with you!" ”

In an instant, everyone's tears rained down, and a man choked heavily.
