Chapter 1: The Fate of Birth

Next Chapter

July 1984 is a continuous drizzle and it rains for half a month in the rainy season, Guichuan City, a tiled house in an unknown small mountain village, there are not many houses, there are three rooms on the left, from the room came Chen Chen's painful * sound, the courtyard outside the two people are anxiously discussing something, at this moment the sky suddenly thundered and the sound of lightning resounded through the valley, an old man in the courtyard looked at the sky and said: It rained for half a month without thunder, why did it thunder at this time.

The man next to him said anxiously: My good uncle, don't worry about the thunder, it's been in for almost two hours, what should I do? He said to himself that Uncle is not alive yet, God bless, the Bodhisattva blesses the mother and son safely.

Don't worry, Xiaosi, the midwife who delivered your mother-in-law will be fine if she has been a midwife for decades.

Xiaosi's full name is He Xiaosi's name in the rural area is a combination of big names and small names, thunder lasted for half an hour, I heard the voice of an old woman in the room, gave birth to a boy, Xiaosi, congratulations, is a boy, just in this thunderstorm and coincided with 12 o'clock in the middle of the night when the birth of each child will cry loudly, but I did not cry and looked curiously at the mother-in-law holding me.

The people in the yard heard the word "sheng" and immediately rushed into the house, and saw an old woman in her sixties who was beating the child's buttocks, and said while beating, you cry, you cry quickly, but how can she beat the child just not crying, maybe it was too light.

The person who called Xiaosi ignored the old woman, as if he didn't see it, and walked directly to the bed, and the old man heard the old woman's words when he was about to speak: What's the matter, doesn't the child cry? …。

If you don't cry, if you don't cry, what if you don't cry, what if you don't cry, what if you don't cry, what if you don't

The old man turned his head to look at the young man named Xiaosi The young man named Xiaosi was talking to the weak woman lying on the bed on the side of the bed, Yuewen, how are you, are you still hurting, are you uncomfortable? .

The woman on the bed said weakly: No, it doesn't hurt, I want to see the child.

Yuewen, I'm a kid with you, I have thought of the name of Yuewen's child, how about the name of He Yan, this is the name of the only high school student I found in several of our villages, is the name good.

Well...

Yuewen, you sleep for a while, I'll go see the child.

The woman closed her eyes, perhaps because she had just given birth to a child and was weaker and fell asleep quickly.

The good old man turned around and shouted: "Little Si, come here, I have something to tell you."

In some of the more superstitious small mountain villages, there are such rumors, the child is born without crying is a big deal, the child will not live to be twelve years old, and the family will also die before the child dies, that is, the parents, but the rumor says that as long as the child is not raised, even if it is raised by others, it will not kill the parents, there are not many people who believe it, but when the facts are only in front of them, it is different, more than ten years ago, a nearby village called Shangli Village also gave birth to a child who did not cry at birth, and the parents did not believe the rumors and did not take it seriously, Within a few years, his parents died, and he died when he was ten years old, and everyone was afraid when they thought of that rumor, it turned out that the rumors were true, and since then there were a few children who were born without crying or making trouble, and their parents generally threw their children far away, and some of them were thrown into the mountains to fend for themselves, but most of them went into the wolves and carnivores in the mountains, and those with a conscience would be thrown on the street, or hospitals, nursing homes, schools, where there are more of these people, and if they want to have well-wishers to adopt, they will not lose their lives, they are living well, Because the child was lost and died and several were born, everyone thought that as long as they threw it away as soon as they were born, they would be fine.

The old man said: Little four, you have to be prepared, this child will not cry when he is born... Alas...

Impossible, impossible, why didn't this child cry, I heard it when I entered the house, Uncle really I heard it, and after speaking, he snatched He Yan from the midwife's hand and slapped me on the ass, maybe it was too much force He Yan immediately felt the hot pain on his buttocks, and cried more and more, uncle, don't you see this crying, the child cried, and he shed tears as he spoke.

Xiaosi, why are you so ignorant, is crying at this time the same as crying when you were born, how long has this been born, can it be the same, and when was this child born, see for yourself that it is 12 o'clock in the evening, can this child have it, Xiaosi can't have this child anyway, send it to me immediately If you are reluctant to do this wicked person, I will do it, trivial matter, how did the family in your village die if you are better than me? At this time, the old man yelled very seriously.

He Xiaosi was silent for a long time and said: Shall I throw him on the street?

As long as you don't raise it, you can throw it anywhere.

He Xiaosi heard it, gave He Yan to the midwife, walked to the clothes box, opened the box, took a set of baby clothes for both men and women, and took a small quilt from the midwife, the child was wrapped, picked up the flashlight, and stopped him: This person who took it and didn't let the person who adopted him not know his birthday, my name was also written, go....

Thank you, uncle, if Yuewen wakes up, don't tell him, if he asks, just say that the child died at birth, let her recover well.

Well, I see.

He Xiaosi turned around and went out, and the old man said to the midwife, this is your happy money, I hope you don't say it, just say that you died, the midwife didn't go to pick it up: Alas, what kind of sin has this created, rest assured, I will say to the outside world that I don't want this money, and the little four family is not lenient, keep this money to buy some supplements for the child and her mother, it is best to have another one in the future, I will go back first, don't send it, and it is not far away.

Go slowly and let Xiaosi go to your house another day, thank you.

No need for it, alas... How can a good family be... Alas....

He Yan was carried by his father and walked a winding mountain road to the door of a local tourist guest house, this guest house is not large, maybe about 20 rooms, three floors, Xiao Si walked back and forth at the door several times, as if he had made some important decisions, suddenly stood and looked at the door of the guest house, and then looked down at the child in his arms, and said to the child, He Yan My child is dad can't protect you, but dad wants to protect mom and son rest assured, The people who live here are rich people, and Dad puts you here, Dad can rest assured, at least you will be adopted by them, you will not suffer and starve, Dad knows that Dad is useless and can't protect you, but Dad wants to protect Mom, and you don't want Mom to have an accident, it's Dad I'm sorry for you, if you grow up in the future, blame Dad, Dad will put you here, Xiao Si finished speaking, put He Yan next to a flower pot not far from the door, turned around and left quickly, and quickly turned around and came back to pick up the child, put it down and left, and turned back to pick up the child, ran back and forth four or five times, the child also felt his father's departure, it is estimated that he will never see it again and began to open his throat and cry, He Xiaosi heard the cry of the child behind him and went back to pick it up, it was strange to say, the child was hugged by him and did not cry and then said to the child early tomorrow morning, if no one comes to adopt, your father will die and take you back to raise you, our family will die together, after saying that, put the child back in its original place, and leave again It is not far away, The child's cry came again, He Xiaosi seemed to have made up his mind not to look back, as if he had walked to a corner on the opposite side and squatted down there, hugging his head and crying The child's cry came and hit his heart one after another, saying that the man has tears and does not flick, but after all, he is his own child, he is at the corner, sticking his head out and looking at the door of the guest house, the guest house, the window on the second floor suddenly turned on, and after a while, a pair of fifty or sixty-year-old people walked out, and it can be seen that the old man is still very particular about dressing, is also relatively rich, at that time, the rich man was more than 100,000 even a little rich, the old man looked for the child's cry, found the side of the flower pot, the old man saw that the child next to the flower hall was really crying and immediately felt pity, the woman may be overflowing with motherhood, looking at the old man who said the child hurriedly picked her up, don't freeze, picked up the child upside down and gently patted He Yan's back with his hand, He Xiaosi saw this scene and was finally relieved, He reluctantly went home, and when he left, he clasped his hands on his chest and silently prayed to bless my child with a safe, healthy and happy growth.
