177 - Stubbornness, the cross behind it
Even if Gu Chen didn't ask her not to go to the hard-hit area, Nan Sheng wouldn't be able to go, because Jiang Licheng didn't allow it, and he didn't worry about letting Nan Sheng in such a state go to danger.
When Jiang Licheng returned to the tent, it was already half an hour later, and when he saw Nan Sheng still holding the phone in a daze, his eyes narrowed, and the corners of his mouth smiled:
"He's angry?"
Nan Sheng smiled and shook his head:
"No, I made him worried."
"Well, there's something wrong with that." Empathy, anyone will be worried.
The tent in the disaster area cannot be used alone, no one has come when Nan Sheng called just now, at this time she and Jiang Licheng have only spoken a few words, and there is an inquiry outside, asking which tent is still vacant, Jiang Licheng walked out, Nan Sheng tidied up the things around him a little, and also walked out.
Jiang Licheng had already beckoned them to come this way, Nan Sheng looked over and saw two men in camouflage uniforms carrying a single frame over. On the single shelf was a woman about 30 years old, her forehead was wrapped in gauze, blood was oozing, it seemed to be a small injury, but her brows were frowned, as if she was holding back something, and there was a sleeping baby lying beside her.
Nan Sheng followed in to help, after all, it was a woman who was more careful and convenient to take care of than a man, but when she took a blanket and covered the woman, she found that there was only a man in camouflage uniform left in the tent, he had yellow skin, a tall figure, and handsome facial features, and he was the kind of man who made people feel very secure at a glance.
He slowly squatted down and held the woman's hand, Nan Sheng saw full of guilt and sadness in his gaze, and at that moment she understood the greatness of a soldier and the involuntary position of being in this position. My heart was suddenly touched, and even my voice softened a little:
"Are they your relatives?"
The man raised his eyes and glanced at Nan Sheng, and nodded:
"She's my wife."
Nan Sheng didn't say anything comforting, that's not what she is good at, in this sad land we have lost too many relatives and families in a short period of time, comfort can't alleviate any sadness, Nan Sheng looked at his reluctance, and whispered:
"I'll take care of them."
The man's eyes flashed, he said thank you, and then leaned over and kissed his wife lightly on the forehead:
"Wait until I get back."
The woman slowly opened her eyes, nodded, and smiled brightly, but did not speak.
The man left quickly, there were still too many places to need him, he couldn't stay because of the love of his children, even if his wife and children were here, but the duties given to him by his military uniform could only make him choose to leave in pain.
Nan Sheng's eyes kept following the man's figure until he disappeared before turning around, but this turn made Nan Sheng a little at a loss, the woman was vomiting blood, and a large amount of blood gushed out of her mouth, as if she wanted to spit out all the blood in her body from her mouth.
Nan Sheng had never dealt with such a picture, she panicked for a while, but it was only a short two or three seconds, she turned her head and shouted Jiang Licheng's name loudly, asking him to call the doctor, Jiang Licheng took a quick look at the tent, his eyebrows tightened, and left quickly, Nan Sheng didn't know what she should do at this time, but suddenly remembered that her husband seemed to have just left, and at this time she could probably let him come over to accompany her, but before Nan Sheng could move, the woman grabbed her hand and shook her head gently:
"Don't come back to him......"
Nan Sheng suddenly understood that the forbearance between her eyebrows just now was true, in order to not want to show her truest state in front of her husband, so that he could help more people on the front line without worries, Nan Sheng's heart ached, her eyes suddenly turned red, she couldn't bear to live up to the woman's intentions, so she didn't insist on looking for the man, just pulled a towel, wiped the blood spit out for her, and comforted the woman with a nervous voice:
"Hold on, the doctor will be here soon, you'll be fine......"
The woman began to cough, her movements woke up the baby next to her, the baby's cry made the woman's expression change, although it was still painful, but there was too much reluctance in her eyes, her eyes hung down lovingly, looking at the baby beside her, tears flowed from the corners of her eyes.
Nansheng picked up the child and moved closer to her so that she could see more clearly......
The woman smiled, there was no pain, no sadness, no unwillingness, and some of the guilt and distress that could not be dissolved......
The woman's consciousness began to blur, but she grabbed Nan Sheng's hand with her last strength:
"Help...... Help me take ...... Take care of my children......"
When Jiang Licheng hurried over with the doctor, the woman was no longer breathing, she was hit by too heavy external force, and her internal organs were moved, and it was a miracle that she was able to hold on until now, the medical staff lifted the woman back to the single frame and carried it out of the tent, Nan Sheng hugged it and fell asleep slowly, but she didn't know that she had lost her mother's child, and her heart was sad.
It was the first time she had seen someone die in front of her, and she couldn't hold back as she watched.
She shouldn't have had too much affection at this time, but her mind was still uncontrollable and returned to the incident 20 years ago, when the situation was probably the same as now, except that the little boy was ten years old and understood what death meant, while the baby in her arms didn't understand what he had lost at the moment.
The smell of blood in the tent was very strong, Jiang Licheng asked her to come out for a while, he went in to clean up, Nan Sheng sat without moving, her eyes shone slightly, and asked Jiang Licheng a question:
"Watching a loved one die in front of your eyes, that feeling will probably be remembered for a lifetime, right?"
Nan Sheng's question made Jiang Licheng instantly understand what she wanted to express, he looked at Nan Sheng, and the words that originally comforted and deceived her were replaced by the truth:
"Probably anyone will remember it except for losing their memory."
"Fortunately......" Nan Sheng lowered his eyes and looked at the child in his arms: "Fortunately, he has no memory......"
She was not skilled in holding the child, and it was probably the first time, and the posture was a little awkward, Jiang Licheng always felt that the child was a little uncomfortable in Nansheng's arms, but the little guy slept very sweetly, and even smiled sweetly, so he didn't correct anything.
Maybe there is some kind of special fate between them.
At that time, Jiang Licheng and Nan Sheng never thought that because of the fate of this little boy in his arms and her, Nan Sheng was fortunate to brush shoulders with death several times, of course, this is a later story.
――
Even the deepest sadness could not hide the calm brought by the late night, Nan Sheng lay in the tent, smelling the faint smell of blood, looking at the sleeping baby next to him but not sleepy.
At the beginning of her recovery, she was almost bumpy in the car for a day, she saw the sadness all over the place, experienced a life and death parting, her whole body was exhausted from the inside out, but she was very conscious, so she couldn't even close her eyes, as long as she closed her eyes, the woman in front of her was reluctant to look at the baby......
She has never experienced the accident 20 years ago, but through the departure of the woman just now, she understands the helplessness and sadness of a mother who looks at her child but is no longer able to take care of it, and the reluctance and pain of the mother back then are afraid to be even stronger, after all, she was so reluctant to leave, it was indifference and greed that forced her to that dead end.
Not wanting to think about it anymore, Nan Sheng sat up, sighed slightly, but he didn't want to be heard by Jiang Licheng in the tent next door, his voice came softly through the thin fabric:
"Scared?"
Jiang Licheng was worried that Nan Sheng had insomnia because he had witnessed that shocking death not long ago, so even if the sleepiness eroded, he also fell asleep, wanting to comfort her at the first time when she was afraid, he was glad that he had made his decision, because Nan Sheng did have insomnia, but he guessed wrong.
Nan Sheng obviously didn't expect Jiang Licheng to fall asleep at this time, and after a short period of surprise, she replied:
"Teacher Jiang, I'm not that fragile."
If she was afraid and afraid of death, she would not have come to the earthquake area, what she would face when she came here, she had already been mentally prepared, although there was still a difference between imagination and reality, she was still able to accept it, what made her unable to sleep was the cross behind her, after seeing that woman, it was even heavier.
Nan Sheng's denial let Jiang Licheng know the reason for Nan Sheng's insomnia, he was silent for a moment, but finally spoke:
"Nansheng, the tragedy of that year has nothing to do with you."
Jiang Licheng didn't wait for an answer for a long time, and when he thought Nan Sheng had fallen asleep, her voice came slowly:
"Teacher Jiang, I understand what you mean, you want to sue me, Nan Sheng 20 years ago was only 2 years old, and I only have the ability to accept what kind of decision my father made for me, and I don't have the ability to refuse at all, I understand the reason, but because that person is my father, he is suffering for my mistakes 20 years ago in a place where he does not see the light of day, and this peace of mind should not belong to me anyway."
"Nansheng ......" Jiang Licheng's voice was mixed with a little helplessness: "You are stubborn." ”
Nan Sheng smiled and did not continue the topic:
"Did Mr. Jiang find the little boy back then?"
"No, it's been so long, I need some time."
Nan Sheng answered softly:
"Sometimes I wonder if my father's company had a series of accidents, but when the situation turned around, it broke out 20 years ago, this coincidence is a bit unbelievable, you say, could it be that the little boy is back, is he hiding somewhere to control this qiē?"
Nan Sheng's words silenced Jiang Licheng, and a bold conjecture suddenly flashed in his mind, but he was too shocked to show it, he suppressed the feelings in his heart and asked:
"If this qiē really came for his revenge for what happened 20 years ago, would you hate him?"
Jiang Licheng thought that Nan Sheng would hesitate, but unexpectedly, when her voice just fell, her answer had already blurted out, and he heard her say:
"No, it won't. If it were me, I would do the same. ”
