Chapter 95: Trying to Catch the Past
"Silly nephew, where is the grievance of my aunt! With you, my aunt has something to rely on, and who dares to bully me if you give up your domineering spirit? β
"That's it, auntie, with me, even the king of heaven and Lao Tzu don't want to bully you. But when you cry, I feel that for so many years, you are a girl floating in the rivers and lakes, without a single relative around you, and facing all the difficulties alone, I feel very uncomfortable! β
"Silly nephew, my aunt knows that you feel sorry for me, and neither of us is allowed to cry in the future, do you hear?"
Liu Muyan redressed her makeup, she hadn't changed her clothes for a few days, and her body smelled rancid, she took off her pajamas and was about to change her underwear, Yizhang stood up and lowered his head and walked out, Mu Yan grabbed him, "Silly nephew, don't go out, open the door back and forth, and let out the little warmth in the house, I am your aunt, and I am not an outsider." β
Liu Yizhang's face was red to his neck, he had to turn around, Mu Yan giggled, lost the east corner of the harvest of mulberry elm, away from the dregs of the troubled world, and returned to the innocent family home, especially in this situation, she is willing to stop time, forever like this and Yizhang look like this, warm each other, Mu Yan poured the hot water of the thermos into the basin, scrubbed his body with a hot towel, this sudden scene is something that Yizhang has never encountered, and he never dreamed of it, although Liu Muyan is his aunt, but he has not seen it for many years, I couldn't even recognize her when I saw her for the first time, she was as beautiful as a fairy, and she was a young woman who was not a few years older than herself, listening to the sound of scrubbing, the cave was filled with ambiguous smells, Yizhang closed his eyes hard, and his heart was like a lost deer, panic and confused.
Liu Muyan looked at Yizhang who was so nervous that she stiffened, and decided to tease him again, she gently poked Yizhang on the waist, and said with a smile, "Yizhang, help, help me button up my clothes." Yizhang scratched his head, turned around hard, and saw Mu Yan's back facing him, the three openings of his underwear were in the back, thinking that it was indeed a little difficult for his aunt to buckle it herself, he reached out to help buckle it, the mouth was very small, and he was nervous, and he couldn't buckle it several times, Mu Yan's back and the fragrance emitted by his body made Yizhang's heart ape, and his hand trembled as soon as he touched Mu Yan's skin, Mu Yan laughed unrestrainedly, "What's the matter, you combat hero was scared like this by me?" β
"Auntie, it's really hard to deduct. Otherwise, you put on your coat first and don't catch a cold. Yizhang said in a snort.
"I don't care, it's just right to catch a cold, and I have your stupid nephew to serve me." Yizhang finally buckled one, and his hands were sweating.
"Haha, I won't be difficult for you, silly nephew!" Mu Yan turned his underwear to the front and buttoned it himself, and then turned it to the back, that is, a few seconds of effort, Yizhang then understood that his aunt intended to let him button her, his face was even redder, his heart beat faster, and he couldn't wait to leave, Mu Yan turned around, looked at Yizhang with an embarrassed face, and said with a smile, "Yizhang, when the battle is over, my aunt will introduce you to a good girl." β
Yizhang didn't squeak, and when Mu Yan got dressed, he picked up the thermos to go to the room to turn on the water, but Mu Yan stopped her, she took out an alcohol stove and kettle from under the bed, lit the fire and the water boiled for a while, Yizhang asked Mu Yan curiously, "Auntie, what is burning here?" β
"Alcohol, colorless and tasteless, cooking with it is fast and clean."
"It's so fun, by the way, auntie, you've been in Shanghai for several years, and I've heard that Shanghai is very prosperous, right?"
"Of course, Shanghai is our largest metropolis in China, known as the paradise of adventurers, red wine lights and green lights, busy traffic, I will tell you about Shanghai when I eat in a while." Seeing that his aunt was busy cleaning up the room, Yizhang couldn't intervene, so he squatted down, added a few pieces of charcoal to the brazier, and then threw all the letters on the ground into it, a puff of black smoke came out, Mu Yan quickly opened the door and raised the curtain, Yizhang saw that there was still a lot of charcoal piled up outside the cave, and he was very curious, thinking that there were no heating facilities in Wu Xiangsen's dormitory. Impossible! Mu Yan seemed to see his thoughts, and asked with a smile, "Silly nephew, is there a question mark on the train?" β
Yizhang smiled and shook his head.
"Close the door, it's past noon, are you hungry? Auntie, I'll make you something to eat. β
"Auntie, how can I help?"
"It's very simple, after a while, you can eat hard, just do me a great favor." Saying that, Mu Yan lifted the sheets, "Yizhang, what do you want to eat?" Yizhang squatted down and looked at it, and couldn't help but be surprised, under Mu Yan's bed was full of all kinds of delicious food, eggs, canned food, biscuits, rice...... There were actually two bottles of foreign wine, Yizhang was really afraid that his aunt would make a mistake, he held Mu Yan's hand and asked solemnly, "Auntie, tell me honestly, where did all these high-end foods come from?" β
Mu Yan didn't say anything but giggled, which made Yizhang anxious, he stood up quickly, turned around and pretended to leave, Mu Yan hugged Yizhang's waist tightly from behind, "Silly nephew, you don't want an aunt either?" With a crying tone in the words, Yizhang was originally to scare Mu Yan, seeing that she was about to cry, he quickly broke Mu Yan's hand, stared at her teary eyes and said, "Auntie, I finally found you, I can't let you make mistakes because of a bite to eat, then I won't forgive myself!" "Watching Yizhang 'teach' himself in a strict manner, Mu Yan liked Yizhang more and more, he was too upright and too simple, she decided to disguise herself as a little girl who didn't know the world, and let Yizhang walk into her 'trap' step by step, after making up her mind, Mu Yan leaned her head on Yizhang's chest, pretending to be afraid and said, "Yizhang, I don't want it, they forced it to me." β
"Who are they?"
"Don't be so fierce, I'll tell you if you're not angry!" Mu Yan began to play Lai Pi, which made Yizhang smile bitterly, he has always regarded Mu Yan as an adult, thinking that the elders should speak like their fathers and mothers, a serious person, but he never imagined that his aunt was like a little girl who had not grown up, and he actually played Lai Pi with his junior, in order to figure out what was going on, he had to become an adult himself, and said to Mu Yan like a child, "Okay, as long as you tell me the truth, not only will I not be angry, but I will also tell you about my Yankee plane!" Mu Yan couldn't help but want to laugh, she knew that Yizhang had taken her lead, and she regarded herself as a little girl who played Laipi, thinking that this was too funny, she decided to continue to pretend in the direction of the child, "I don't want to listen to the war, I want to listen to you about falling in love." "Yizhang is embarrassed, thinking that you have just been dumped by Wang Peng's bastard, I will tell you about me and Wang Hui again, not to sprinkle salt on your wounds.
"Auntie, I have no experience in falling in love, you can change the topic, I will tell you the truth."
"Really?"
"Of course it is." Yizhang thought to himself, as long as he doesn't ask about love, everything else is easy to say.
"Then I'm going to ask, what do you think of me?" Yizhang didn't expect his aunt to ask another question that he didn't want to answer, and scratched his head anxiously.
"Say it quickly, a manly man is not interested in playing tricks, and it is difficult to chase after a horse!" Mu Yan was in too much of a hurry, either beating Yizhang's chest or pinching his face, he was completely like a child, Yizhang had no choice but to tell the truth, "Auntie, I said, don't be angry." Come, sit down and listen to me! Yizhang pressed Mu Yan to the edge of the bed and sat down, and said seriously, "Auntie, you are six years older than me, I am nineteen years old, you are twenty-five years old, to say a big disrespectful word, I look like twenty-five, you are like Wei Ji's age......"
"Who is Wei Ji?"
"Look, adults talk, don't interject." Mu Yan listened, he couldn't help laughing, he laughed, Yizhang also laughed, he scratched his head, "Auntie, that Wei Ji, is the daughter of my uncle's family, I have been my uncle Liu Wenzheng's daughter since she was a child, she grew up in the Liu family's dean, when you left home, she was five or six years old, this year is either sixteen, or seventeen, do you remember the first time I saw you, I heard you speak in exactly the same tone as Wei Ji, I thought Wei Ji was here." β
"Yizhang, I see, you mean to say that I look like a little girl of sixteen or seventeen?" Mu Yan's heart is beautiful.
"Yes, yes, that's what it means, you're too innocent and naΓ―ve. Okay, can you tell me who sent that pile of high-end food under the bed? Mu Yan thought to herself, Yizhang completely regarded herself as a little girl who was not deeply involved in the world, and she was afraid that she would be deceived, so she looked at Yizhang with a smile, and said casually, "Most of those things were sent by the wounded, and some were sent by people who came to see the wounded." Yizhang bent down and pulled a lot of things out, the canned beef among them was very familiar, and after thinking about it carefully, it should be the trophy of the Eagle Ridge battle, he asked Mu Yan, "Auntie, is this sent by Xu Weiguo?" Mu Yan nodded, he pointed to the two bottles of foreign wine, "Who gave such a rare thing?" β
"Zhou Zhengkang!"
"I came with him, and he didn't bring anything?"
"He didn't bring it with him, and a few days after you left, he sent two guards to deliver it, along with a letter." As he spoke, Mu Yan got up and took out a stack of letters from under the quilt, found one and handed it to Yizhang.
Mu Yan Fangjian: When the field hospital first saw her face, she was shocked, and she unconsciously regarded you as a fairy in the earth. Listening to your high opinions, I feel that I am only shallow in my studies, not to mention that my nephew Yizhang has repeatedly made military exploits, and has been highly appreciated by my Political Department, and I am ready to develop him into a member of the middle **, in order to prepare for promotion! I have participated in the revolution since I was a child, so that I have repeatedly mistaken personal events, since I met you, my heart is overflowing, my admiration is beyond words, and it is difficult to endure the long night, write these heartfelt words, Hongyan biography, I wish to one day enjoy the bright moon with you under the flowers, can you? Send someone to send two bottles of wine, hope to smile!
Salute to the revolution!
