Chapter Twenty-Six: Uncle Qiu Returns
Qiu Hengshui saw Qin Yuhan and told him about his father, and Qin Yuhan realized that Qin Ruiming was killed in the Eighth Route Army to resist Japan, and when the county town was attacked, it was just the Eighth Route Army that came to save him. And after Qin Ruiming thought about it, in order to protect the Qin family's family, he deliberately did not show up.
Now that New China has been established, Qin Yuhan asked Qiu Hengshui: "Uncle Qiu, can you tell me, where is my father's tomb?" I want to go and worship in order to fulfill my filial piety as a son. ”
Qiu Hengshui patted Qin Yuhan on the shoulder and said: "Your idea is very good, your father was buried on the south slope of Xiyu Village, I personally buried him after he died, the Japanese were still there back then, I didn't dare to come back to sue you, so I made my own decisions and secretly buried him in Xiyu Village, if you want to go, come with me." ”
Qin Yuhan then followed Qiu Hengshui to Xiyu Village, which has now been renovated, the mountain roads have also been renovated, and farmers are busy everywhere.
Qin Yuhan followed Qiu Hengshui and came to the south slope, Qiu Hengshui pointed to a grave without a tombstone, and said: "This is your father's tomb, in order to prevent the matter from being revealed, I didn't erect a monument, but now that the revolution has won, you can erect a monument for your father." ”
Qin Yuhan said: "Uncle Qiu, I have an idea, I want to move my father's tomb back to Hedong Village, and I should mean the same thing like my father." ”
Qiu Hengshui said lightly: "This is your Qin family's business, I have no right to interfere, you have to accommodate it." ”
Qin Yuhan saw that Qiu Hengshui did not object, and continued: "Uncle Qiu, when did my father die?" ”
Qiu Hengshui said: "It was the year when the devil surrendered, and when we counterattacked, we were blown up by a stray bullet and sacrificed. In the end, he still didn't see the moment when he drove away the Japanese devils! ”
After speaking, Qiu Hengshui couldn't help but sigh a little, and was also a little sad, and was silent for a while.
After a while, Qiu Hengshui led Qin Yuhan to the unknown Qiu Family's secret cave. And told him the specific situation of the Seven Spirits Flower Scattering, and Qin Yuhan knew that his father had a thorough plan and was very intelligent. I was ashamed of myself, but the Seven Spirits Flower Scatter was taken away by Qiu Hengshui's son-in-law, and I couldn't say anything to criticize. Qin Yuhan said to Qiu Hengshui: "Uncle Qiu, don't blame yourself, I think." That Brother Meng took your third daughter to escape is also the ambition of the family, after all, they are spies of the military command, but until now, there is no news about the Seven Spirits Flower, which shows that he still hasn't publicized the secret. ”
Qiu Hengshui knew that Qin Yuhan was really comforting him, so he said angrily: "This kid is still not right, or even if he doesn't hand it over to Lao Jiang, he will come back and give it to you?" ”
Qin Yuhan smiled and said, "Uncle Qiu, you have to understand that Brother Meng, forgive me for being presumptuous." Maybe something happened to him in the war, or he went to Taiwan by himself, and even if he wanted to, he couldn't come back! ”
When Qiu Hengshui heard this, he couldn't help but ease up a lot, so he said: "Okay, don't worry about this guy, take refuge in Lao Jiang, it's just a muddy brain, if I can still see him come back, I will definitely beat him with a stick to relieve my anger!" In fact, Qiu Hengshui scolded Meng Haichang so much for the Qin family. Of course, he felt that this was not necessary, because under the circumstances at that time, Qin Ruiming was able to value the national righteousness and give the secret recipe to Lao Jiang and not to the Japanese. That's right; And Meng Haichang was right to prevent the Japanese from taking away even a foreign recipe in order to keep the secret recipe, so he was not really angry.
After Qin Yuhan returned home, he immediately enlisted the help of the Xu family's brothers and moved his father's grave to the ancestral grave of the Qin family on the small hillside south of Hedong Village. And set up a row in the mourning hall at home.
As usual, but not long after, Qiu Hengshui came to Qin Yuhan again, Qiu Hengshui said to him: "Nephew, I have an idea, now the whole country is undergoing socialist transformation, I recommended you to the county leaders, he is an old comrade-in-arms of mine, and now the county is going to establish a national medical hall covering the whole county, I told him about your situation, he is very satisfied, especially after hearing that you are a revolutionary martyr, he also attaches more importance to it." He has already agreed, after the construction of the Chinese Medicine Hall, it will be opened next to the cooperative in Hedong Village, and he decided to let you, a family of traditional Chinese medicine, sit in the hall in the future, what do you think? ”
Qin Yuhan actually wanted to go back to his old profession for a long time, but he also knew that the current policy was socialist transformation, and even the Zhang family's business was transformed into a public-private partnership, and if he opened a medicine hall, it would never work, so he never took action. But now that he heard Qiu Hengshui say this, and with his help, Qin Yuhan was suddenly overjoyed, and kowtowed to Qiu Hengshui when he lost it.
Qiu Hengshui immediately married Qin Yuhan and said: "It's a new society now, don't do this, as long as you work hard and serve others, it will be the best reward for me." ”
Qin Yuhan immediately nodded and said, "Uncle Qiu, don't worry, as soon as the medicine hall opens, I will definitely treat my work with all my heart." ”
Qiu Hengshui was very satisfied, but he remembered something again, so he said, "I also went to Brother Guanghui's house just now. ”
Qin Yuhan was a little puzzled, Qiu Hengshui said with a smile: "It's your Aunt Jiang and Su Zhen's family, she told me that you and Su Zhen have been childhood sweethearts since childhood, and they came through hardships together, why do I tell you this, I just want to ask you, you are not too young, it's time to ask for a daughter-in-law, what do you think of Su Zhen?" ”
Although Qin Yuhan was also in his early twenties at this time, although Qiu Hengshui treated himself like a father, when he heard this, he couldn't help blushing, and he didn't know how to answer for a while.
Qiu Hengshui is an old Jianghu, Qin Yuhan can't see this thought? So he said: "I don't want to praise Suzhen for how good, because you may not know that Zhang Suzhen's daughter was passed on to Brother Guanghui, he has no children and no daughters, I had four daughters at the time, and it was not easy to raise, so I succeeded Suzhen to his house, as her biological father, how could he praise his daughter." But you have to tell me the truth, do you like Su Zhen's daughter, if you don't like it, you will be your Uncle Qiu and say nothing. ”
Unexpectedly, Qiu Hengshui actually retreated into advance, and deliberately set Qin Yuhan's words, Qin Yuhan was still a fledgling young man at this time, how could he have so much scheming, so he hurriedly said: "I like it, I like it, but I just don't know if people are willing to do it!" ……”
Qiu Hengshui couldn't help but be happy, and said: "My daughter, as soon as I become the master, I also understand my daughter's heart, I see, this matter is a good thing, your father is no longer here, this matter is handed over to you Uncle Qiu to make your decision, do you agree?" ”
Qin Yuhan twisted and said: "This matter, Uncle Qiu is willing to make the decision for me, how can I still disagree......"
Qiu Hengshui was even happier and said: "This matter is so decided, I didn't expect to see that you are usually very arrogant, and when you meet a marriage discussion, it looks like a girl's family." ”
Qin Yuhan was even more embarrassed.
In the past seven or eight years, Qin Yuhan has been diligent and diligent, and finally improved a lot, and this has returned to the ancestral business of his Qin family, practicing medicine in the National Medical Hall, and his sweetheart, I don't feel that life is so perfect. Within two years, the family was filled with men, and Qin Wei came into the world, and at this time, the Qin family really returned to the Qin family.
Qiu Hengshui retired from the army after a few years, and he could have lived in the city, with his own general building and guards, but considering that he would save some manpower and material resources for the country, and he also liked to be at ease in Xiyu Village, he applied with the organization to return to the mountain village for retirement. The organization originally disagreed, because after all, Qiu Hengshui had participated in the revolution since the Anti-Japanese War, and had made many military exploits, and it was a little unkind to send people back, but Qiu Hengshui insisted on requesting, and the organization also sat in a sitting posture and kept him twice, but he still took into account his personal wishes and let him come back.
It is precisely because Qiu Hengshui was able to retreat bravely in the rapids that he escaped the turbulent days of the next ten years, while his old comrades-in-arms who were still on the job were criticized and reformed through labor one by one, while he received an enviable pension every month and was free in the mountains and forests.
After that, Qin Yuhan gave birth to two sons and two daughters, but ten years of turmoil also made him lose his job in the National Medical Hall and return to the commune to participate in labor, and the Zhang family was even more miserable, because of collusion with the Japanese to be traitors, and profiteers and landlords, they were suppressed and criticized everywhere, and even Zhang Baoxing suffered more fights than he ate at that time, and after the reform and opening up, he also fell ill and died soon after.
Since then, the Qin and Zhang families have returned to the past, when they were irrelevant to each other, knowing that after the reform and opening up, the Zhang family found that the Qin family actually kept the secret recipe of the Seven Spirits Flower Scattering, so they had the intention of going to the secret recipe again.
Seeing this, Qin Xiao had basically understood the previous grievances and grievances of the two families, but in order to avenge his father and know more about the production patents of the Seven Spirits Flowers, he had to do two things - first, he had to obtain the technical research of large-scale production in the interior, which was the premise of being able to defeat the Zhang family; Second, it is necessary to prove that the Seven Spirits Flower Scatter is unique to the Qin family, or that it is not the patent of the Zhang family, so it is necessary to find the original of the Seven Spirits Flower Scatter - the complete "Siku Quanshu" that has been lost for a long time. Sub-section. Records of the Green Capsule.
Only by doing these two things can the Zhang family be defeated, and both are indispensable. Because Qin Xiao knew that the Zhang family was powerful and had a lot of interpersonal relationships, it was useless to make a small fuss, and if he found the original book, he could prove that Fang Zi was the collection of the Wenyuan Pavilion of the Qing Palace back then, and it had nothing to do with his Zhang family, and anyone could prepare it; Only by being able to produce in large quantities can we occupy the market and bring down the Zhang family.
But at this moment, these two things seem to have no eyebrows, and he is just a poor young man who supports medicine and teaching in the countryside of Lingxi.
But these two seemingly impossible things have been raised because of two coincidental things. These two things are like two keys, which opened Qin Xiao's heart knot at once. (For the end of volume 4, see volume 5.) (To be continued.) )
