The third master's visit again will inevitably alarm Meiyu's heart. The stories he tells every day make her feel happy, and she has no time to worry about anything. But all the hard work disappeared the moment the third master appeared in front of Meiyu's eyes. Even, when she caught a glimpse of the familiar tall figure in the distance, vaguely approaching her, it had disappeared completely. Meiyu had to admit that she liked Bojia's goodness, but she just liked it, and it never could arouse the surging in Meiyu's heart. The third master set the tone of the love between men and women too passionately and addictively, which made it a little less interesting no matter how long the affection was. In Bojia, Meiyu couldn't find the concern that made her heartbroken, so she had to admit that what she loved was Lin Sanye, who made her extremely painful.

Just when the third master lifted the curtain of the car window and looked at the window on the first floor of the medical hall, Meiyu also wanted to walk over several times and take a look from a distance to see if the third master was in the courtyard. On the one hand, she was looking forward to the third master's appearance in front of the nurse's station again, and on the other hand, she was afraid and afraid of the third master's coming again. Meiyu tormented herself between deep reluctance and firm separation. All morning, she was in a state of distraction, until she handed the wrong tweezers for examination, and Bo Jia looked up at her tenderly, and said, "After lunch, go to the top of the mountain to have a look?" ”

Meiyu lowered her head embarrassedly and said, "It's so cold." ”

While examining the patient, Bo Jia said in English, "Then let's look at the pictures that my mother sent from Boston." ”

Miyu was attracted and asked, "Really?" ”

He said, "Let's go to the city and take a picture and send it back to her." ”

Meiyu said, "Didn't you take a photo with the dean that day?" You can send those pictures to your mother. ”

He said, "My mother wants to see you." I told her a long time ago that there was an oriental goddess here. ”

The eldest lady who was being inspected by Bo Driver interjected: "What are you talking about? ”

Bo Jia didn't understand, tilted his head sideways and asked, "What did you say?" What does grunt mean? ”

The eldest lady and Meiyu laughed together, and Meiyu said, "The eldest lady asked us what we were talking about. ”

Bo Jia said: "I am expressing my praise and praise for Miss Meiyu in various ways. ”

The eldest lady laughed: "Yes, this girl is really handsome." Dr. Bo has a good eye. ”

In this way, Miyu forgot about the pain for a while, and maybe at some point later, she would remember it again. But at least for the moment, she's happy, and that's fine.

The third master is the same, he is entangled by the husband and wife of the dragon's head, the sanatorium, the top of the mountain, the Rose Mountain and the swallow lake, and his mind is full of these troubles, but in every gasping gap, he can't help but think of Meiyu.

In fact, in the past forty-five days, he has gradually freed himself from his concern and longing for Meiyu. But all the efforts were wasted at the moment when they saw Meiyu. Even, when he saw the familiar and enchanting figure standing behind the nurse's station from a distance, he had already lost his efforts. The third master has been trying to adjust his breathing, exhaling deeply from time to time, but his mood is still like the sky that has been gloomy for several days, extremely gray. He once again tried to wave Meiyu out of his mind, thinking hard about Shen Zongfu's recent good words and persuasions, he didn't listen to it, but he didn't completely agree. The third master has his own ideas, so he decided to go to Swallow Lake.

After the third master returned to Dahoucang from the Tongzhou camp, he instructed Jiarou to be careful when entering and leaving, "I have to go to Changping, the Ming Tombs." Come and go, it takes three or four days. Be careful at home alone. ”

Jiarou asked, "What did the third uncle do when he went to the Ming Tombs?" ”

The third master replied, "Oh, it's the Swallow Lake in the Ming Tombs. There's an old friend here, and I'm going to give them a New Year's greeting. ”

Jiarou wondered, she had never heard that the third uncle had friends in Swallow Lake. She didn't want to ask, so she only said: "The Ming Tombs are so far away, can the third master recognize the way?" ”

The third master said: "Let Quan You inquire." We'll leave when we come back. From here to Swallow Lake, you have to spend two days and one night. ”

Quan You shouted outside the house: "Third master, I'm back." ”

The third master came out and asked, "Have you inquired?" ”

Quan You said, "It's good to inquire." However, in the market, I met those fellow villagers who temporarily lived in Langfang last time. ”

The third master asked, "What are they doing again?" ”

Quan You said: "Who knows, just say that after a while, you will enter Beijing." ”

The third master asked: "After a while, what day is it?" ”

Quan You said: "I didn't say that, and I didn't dare to ask." ”

All of them were young and had a lively brain, and they went all the way north, inquiring as they went, and copied many paths, which were closer than the last time the Yanzihu guys walked. The third master said: "The future is terrifying. ”

I didn't understand, and said, "Are you praising me for my ability?" ”

The third master said: "Capable." When you get to Swallow Lake, don't make a noise. Just go to the grocery store at the entrance of the village and stay for a while. You don't go around. ”

The grocery store was already closed, and the third master felt the darkness and knocked on the door. When the boss saw the third master coming, he hurriedly welcomed him in.

"Happy New Year, brother and sister-in-law." The third master said in a low voice.

"Yo hey, the third master is here for us to pay a New Year's greeting." The proprietress smiled, but she didn't dare to shout loudly, as if she was afraid that the wall would have ears.

"Brother and sister-in-law, I don't stay for a long time, to make a long story short, the dragon head seems to have eyebrows."

The boss and the hostess looked at each other, and neither spoke.

The third master repeated: "I said, the dragon head should have been found. It's in. ”

The proprietress interrupted the third master and said, "Third master, has anyone arranged for you to continue looking?" ”

The third master asked suspiciously: "Sister-in-law, no one arranged for me." What do you mean by that? ”

The proprietress said, "Since there is no one to arrange, what are you doing with that heart?" With that, she shook her hands and sat down in the corner.

Seeing this, the boss relieved the siege and said: "Third master, you don't know, recently, our store has been on fire twice. She was unhappy and always thought that someone was doing something wrong. ”

The third master frowned and asked, "Why do you go to the water?" ”

The boss said, "There are a few red candles, strangely spontaneously combusting. Burned a lot of goods. Maybe we were too careful and didn't pay attention to it. I don't think anyone is doing it. ”

The third master pondered for a while and said, "In this ravine, if someone really makes it bad, there is no need to be sneaky. ”

"I thought so too, if I really want our lives, I just came. The village will not delve into the life and death of two outsiders. Third Master, you go on, what's going on with the dragon head? The boss asked.

"It's not a complete confirmation, but nine times out of ten, at the foot of the Rose Mountain in that medical hall." The third master whispered.

"Rose Mountain? I've never seen a mountain of roses. The boss was puzzled.

"Oh, in the courtyard of the infirmary, halfway up the hill. It is a pile of gray rocks, piled up into a rockery. The third master depicted.

"What does the third master plan?" The boss asked, stretching his neck.

"Big brother, it's not difficult to dig it up, but if you really find it, where to put it? Can the eldest brother contact other people? The third master asked.

The boss shook his head: "No." The third master is very thoughtful, if no one contacts you and me, remember not to act rashly. ”

The third master said: "Father-in-law Li's last words said that it was sent to Lord Yuan. ”

The boss said, "If Lord Yuan wanted it, he would have sent someone to find us a long time ago." Besides, he is far away in Shandong, how can you and I get such a big guy and go to Shandong? Besides, is Gonggong Li confused? How could it be given to Lord Yuan? ”

The third master said: "I also wonder! Isn't Lord Yuan from the old lady's side? But Grandpa Li is confused? It shouldn't be, the last words of the last day, naturally I thought it through. ”

The proprietress stood up and stared at the third master and the boss with a very panicked face.

The third master looked at the proprietress and then moved his gaze to the floor, his brows furrowed, and he also panicked.

"You two are?" The boss asked, puzzled.

The third master got up and looked around the window and the door, returned to the two, and said in a low voice, "Sister-in-law, am I the same as you think?" I don't even dare to say it. ”

The proprietress nodded: "The same." That's what I thought, too. ”

The boss interjected: "What are you talking about?" Stop going around in circles. Tell me quickly. ”

The third master beat the beat with his hand, and without saying half a word, his hand shook a little, "Gonggong Li is Lord Yuan's person." The dragon head is not for Yingtai's patients, but for Lord Yuan. This is to help him one day! What we looked for was right, but the master behind it was wrong. The water is so deep. ”

The proprietress shook her head, "Alas! It finally makes sense. This is Kang's Yu Dang Violent revenge on Father-in-law Li! ”

"But why didn't Lord Yuan come to us?" The third master asked suspiciously.

"Lord Yuan has obtained treasures and earned them. He is such a thief, so he naturally knows that in this situation, it doesn't matter whether he has a dragon head or not. Even whoever takes the dragon's head will make a big splash and make people feel good, but it is not good. No wonder for so long, no one of our own came to us, and after a long time, we didn't have any of our own people. ”

The third master thought of Shen Zongfu's words, and couldn't help but nod again and again.

The boss is a rough man, and he seems to listen to the conversation between his daughter-in-law and the third master in an understandable way.

The three of them were silent for a while, and then the proprietress got up and went to the kitchen, brought out a bowl of hot noodle soup, and said, "Don't think about it, eating is the most important thing." The guys who are driving the car are also invited to come in and eat a bowl of noodles. Don't go hungry for the New Year. ”

The third master was tired and hungry, he tried to jump out of the complicated logic, looked at the hot face and laughed: "It's still my sister-in-law who loves me." ”

The proprietress went out without looking back and invited the guy who was driving the car to eat together.

"Hurry up and eat, you will stay overnight after eating, and hurry back early tomorrow morning." The proprietress said.

"You know that my daughter-in-law is in a hurry." The third master took this opportunity to inform them that the husband and wife had become married.

The proprietress asked, "Oh, what a joy." Is that the nurse from the infirmary? ”

The third master lowered his face and said, "People don't look down on me, and I want to study in France in the summer." ”

The proprietress shook her heart, and she was upset for the beauty of the medical hall, but when she saw that the third master was very disappointed, she said embarrassedly: "It doesn't matter which girl it is, everything that our third master likes is not bad." ”

The boss also followed suit: "Yes, right, wrong, can't be bad." ”

"It's the third girl of the Shen family in Tongzhou Daying, and she has already made a marriage. It's not appropriate not to marry. The third master snorted and said.

The proprietress shook her head, she didn't want to say anything more, she only thought in her heart: Whoever stands up to you is unlucky! She shook a roll of the eyes to the third master, and went to fill them with another bowl of noodles.

"The third master is blessed, marrying a relative, like running an errand. Poor families, it takes a lot of effort to marry a daughter-in-law. The boss tapped the cigarette pouch in his hand and said.

The third master looked at the boss and thought to himself, Pasteur also said it. It seems that there is indeed a problem with my attitude, and I have been slacking off recently, so I have to come back quickly.

The proprietress said: "If you say that, the third master will become more and more proud." Our brother and sister-in-law have to persuade some brothers, we have to take care of our hearts, and we should be content and content. ”

The third master said: "I remember my sister-in-law's words, and I really haven't looked for Ruyue for a few days." ”

Hearing "Ruyue", all of them laughed, he wiped the oil stains from the corners of his mouth with his sleeves, and looked at the third master stupidly.

"Don't mess around." The third master scolded him in a low voice, and then continued to ask the boss: "By the way, a few days ago, a foreigner passed by here?" It was Pasteur, the director of the hospital. It was this guy from Yanzihu Village who drove him to North Korea, and I don't know if he settled in the village. The third master asked.

"We don't go into the village on weekdays, and we don't interact with them much. Keep an eye out for it in the future. The boss said.

"It's okay, I guess it's time to go to North Korea." The third master put down the dishes and chopsticks, and the two bowls of noodles were in his stomach, and the cold was gone. He stood up beautifully and said, "Well, brother and sister-in-law are resting, and the two of us will also spend the night and return to the city early tomorrow morning." ”

Before the sun rose, the third master and all you set off. The boss and the proprietress only stayed at the door of the grocery store to send each other, they were used to hiding and hiding, and they felt unreliable when and where they showed up.

The opinions given by Shen Zongfu are the same as those given by the couple, the third master is not a stubborn person, he decided to "be restless and not impatient" and not take action for the time being. With such an idea, the third master's heart was also much brighter, he whistled briskly, and chatted with Quan You all the way.

"Where is your home in Shandong?" The third master asked.

"Crown County. Guanxian Ya pear. All laughed.

"How old are you?"

"Fourteen." All yelling.

"The day before yesterday, you said that you met a fellow in the market again? Why did they all run out? The third master asked.

"Hey, there's no food to eat, you won't starve to death when you come out." All have understatement.

"What the hell is Shandong like?" The third master asked.

"Third master, my mother and I came out early, and I also heard from the villagers that we had a lot of trouble with foreigners. To tell you the truth, those fellows have been pulling me into the gang. All whispered.

"Does your dad know about this?" The third master said.

"It was my father who told me not to join in the fun, so he naturally knew. My father asked me to learn from Master Jialiu, read some books, understand some crafts, and stay in Beijing in the future and not go back to the countryside. "It's all there.

"Do you have any trades you'd like to learn?"

"Third master, I don't know a few big words, and I'm learning from my wife." It's all said.

"Jiarou? She's teaching you how to read? The third master asked curiously.

"Yes, Sister Jiarou taught me to read. She said that being idle is also idle. My mother was very happy, and I was happy myself. Wait to recognize more words, and then plead with you, and learn the errand of herbal medicine procurement. What do you think? ”

"Stinky boy, you have a lot of ideas, and you have arranged it properly." The third master said with a smile.

"My mother said, we countrymen, we can't do fine work, it's okay to help move bricks and unload goods."

"Herbal procurement is not unloading." The third master laughed.

"Oh, then I'm wrong, I want to make a special cart for herbs in the future, it's good." The more you talk about it, the more beautiful it becomes, and the more you gurgle.

The third master shook his head, "How good do you think you are?" ”

Quan Youyou argued: "I can pull a cart from Guanxian County to Bencaotang, which is a big deal in our village." When I go back in the future, I can marry the best-looking girl in the village. Third master, you've seen and eaten everything, but it's not unusual to see anything. You say, how much less fun are you? ”

The third master shouted: "You are not very old, and you still have a set." Who did you learn from? ”

"When I was eating noodles yesterday, didn't I say to my eldest brother and sister-in-law, you are not satisfied. I guess that's what it means. After saying that, he laughed hehehe.

The third master listened to the child's words and fell into deep thought, not only did he say everything, but how many people said it, and he couldn't remember it himself. He Lin Laosan was born with a golden key, and he was fortunate to have a good skin, the daughter of the city, all the women he had met, all rushed to him, and he didn't know what his surname was. It was not easy to find a pure and simple Jiarou in the far suburbs of Tongzhou, but I was dazzled by the beautiful jade like a fairy in the paradise. But in the end, he still can't break through the family shackles for Meiyu. Right now, although he married Jiarou, he was not willing to be married to Jiarou, and he was even more worried about Meiyu, and he was only worried about it, and he would never leave the door of the big family for Meiyu. In short, Lin Sanye is unsatisfactory, he is really a good card in his hand, and he still can't be happy. He felt that he was far inferior to all the people who had rushed to the car in front of him, and that he had neither a clear goal nor simple happiness. The third master looked at the back of Quanyou, and the back was full of joy, and the third master was very envious.

When crossing Baiwang Mountain, Quan You asked: "Third Master, do you want to get out of the car to have a look?" ”

The third master thought for a while and said, "If you don't go, there should be nothing wrong." Let's go back to town. ”

All agreed, and continued on the road. The third master stuck his head out of the window and looked at the infirmary. All had a glimpse and said, "Third master, so reluctant, just get out of the car and take a look." You're almost out of the way, be careful not to fall off. ”

The third master sighed, "You kid can really speak in the vernacular." ”

All stopped the car and asked, "Why don't you really go and see it?" ”

The third master retracted his body from the car window, he sat in the car and thought carefully, what did he say when he saw Meiyu? can't always be like that, "outer house", "side room", "I'll wait for you for five years", I can't open my mouth in shame. "Come on, let's go back."

"Well, let's go." All shouted.

Entering the Xizhi Gate, the third master breathed a sigh of relief, he thought that he had finally survived Baiwang Mountain, this was the first time he had passed through the door, and it was a rare victory. He wants to overcome his concern for Meiyu and prepare for the upcoming separation.

Quan You parked the carriage and horses, and the third master got out of the car, and saw that Agui of the Shen family in Tongzhou was pulling the car at the door, and Quan Youniang was talking to him. When they saw the third master coming back to you, they hurriedly said, "Third master, all of you have a father who is injured, and sent it to the Baiwang Mountain Nine Chinese Medical Center." Didn't you pass by there? ”

Quan You stepped forward quickly: "Mother, are you talking about my father?" How did it hurt? ”

Quan Youniang sobbed and said: "It was those fellows who wanted to pull him into the gang, but he refused, so he beat him." Your Uncle Gui came to give a letter to the newspaper. ”

"Then you guys go over with Agui's car and have a look." The third master said. In fact, his first thought was to go with him, but then he thought that if he also went to Baiwang Mountain, wouldn't he want to see Meiyu. He finally carried it once, isn't this a waste of his previous efforts?

Agui took Quan You and his mother to set off, and the third master told them to be careful on the road, so they went back to the backyard to rest. Jiarou was very happy when she saw that the third master didn't follow. She asked the kitchen to make a table of good dishes, and sent someone to the next door to ask for a fat deputy, and prepared to have a lively night. This pair of Jiarou makes her happier than the New Year.

The three of them sat around the dining table, Jiarou happily poured wine for the third master and the fat deputy, the fat deputy happily admired the delicious food on the table, but the third master was full of boredom. Jiarou saw the loneliness of the third master, and her fiery heart suddenly became cold again. She comforted herself, she couldn't break it all at once, it was good that he could not follow him to Baiwang Mountain.

The fat deputy also noticed the third master's absent-mindedness and asked, "Third master, what do you think?" Drink alcohol. ”

The third master said: "The housekeeper of the Tongzhou camp is injured. ”

The fat deputy said, "It's the big man who surrounded our yard that day, isn't it?" ”

"Yes, it's also my little guy Zhu Quanyou, the kid who often runs errands for us, his father." The third master explained.

"It turned out to be a family. What hurt? The fat deputy said as he ate.

The third master glanced at the fat deputy, not knowing how to explain. After thinking for a long time, he said: "They are from Shandong, and there are a few fellow villagers who want to pull him into the gang, but he refuses, and he is injured." ”

The fat deputy looked indifferent, and said briskly: "Oh, Shandong, the Germans occupy the Shandong Peninsula, and it is normal for them to make trouble." Is it badly hurt? ”

"It's not light, otherwise it won't be sent all the way to the Nine National Medical Center. Presumably surgery. Yes, I'll have to go see it tomorrow. The third master took a sip of wine.

Jiarou's face sank to the ground. She didn't want to play tricks on the third master, nor did she understand that she had to stand up in front of outsiders, but she really couldn't control herself at all, and her face sank. She doesn't complain about the third master, nor does she complain about Meiyu. Just to throw yourself into the abyss all at once.

"Third uncle, I want to go back to Tongzhou to live for a while." At night, Jiarou lay on the bed and said to the third master.

"Homesick?" The third master asked casually.

Jiarou originally wanted to use these words to vent her emotions, but the third master agreed briefly and lightly, so that Jiarou had no purpose.

"All the mothers are not here, and you are not here. I'm not bored alone. Jiarou said lightly.

"I'll be there for two days and I'll be back. Although the weather is a lot warmer, don't toss. The third master said.

"Third uncle, will you come back in two days?" Jiarou was pleased with the third master's retention of herself, as if this retention was equivalent to I like you.

"Yes, I'll go back to see Uncle Zhu, what am I doing there for a long time?" The third master heard Jiarou's worries and hurriedly comforted her.

"Then I won't go back to Tongzhou." Jiarou said.

"If you want to miss your mother, go back and live for a few days. I'll pick you up when I get back. The third master turned over and prepared to sleep.

Jiarou was so angry by these words that she sat up and cried, and the third master also quickly sat up and comforted: "Why are you crying?" ”

"The third uncle thinks I'm an eyesore, I'm leaving, what are you like the moon, it's better to come and accompany me."

"What's like the moon?" The third master asked in surprise.

"What is like the moon? There are so many people in front of and behind this big mansion, so naturally there are many people. You didn't dare to admit it, and you drove me back to Tongzhou. Jiarou didn't dare to mention Meiyu, so she took Ruyue out to vent her anger.

The third master naturally doesn't feel that he is at a loss, firstly, it was before he got married, and secondly, even now, as long as he doesn't take Ruyue home, no one can blame him. The third master smiled and said, "Oh, Madame is because of this." Then I will make amends to my wife. But I didn't bombard you to go back to Tongzhou, you want to go back by yourself. After saying this, the third master suddenly thought that he had also said to Meiyu: "You are going to France." ”

"Then you didn't keep me. You just have the moon in your heart. Jiarou said coquettishly.

The third master hugged Jiarou, patted her back, and said in his heart that what you are complaining about is not Ruyue, but Meiyu. The third master knew that she had wronged Jiarou, and she didn't even dare to mention Meiyu in front of her. The moon that can be taken out to quarrel is not worth mentioning, and the beautiful jade that cannot be said is like weighing a thousand catties. Jiarou didn't dare to mention Meiyu's appearance that made him feel distressed, so she said:

"I don't think about Meiyu in my heart, if you don't believe it, I won't go tomorrow. Uncle Zhu has so many people to take care of, and Jia Luo is also there, and there is not one more of me. The third master gritted his teeth and said these words. He really wanted to see Meiyu, but he also really wanted to let go.

Jiarou got up from the third master's arms, looked at him with wide eyes, stroked his cheek with her hand, and said, "The third uncle can go if he wants, don't embarrass yourself." ”

This technique is the same as that of beautiful jade. The third master's heart twitched, he lowered his head helplessly, sighed, and said, "No, I'm not going." ”

Jiarou saw the third master's loss and shook his hand, "Third uncle, what else can't you say to me." I, I'm welcome to Sister Miyu. I'm going to talk to my eldest brother and let her get in, and give her the title of the side room. ”

The third master raised his head and took a deep breath, "Since the girl is so generous, I will tell you the truth, it is she who looks down on me." ”

This made Jiarou want to laugh, but she restrained herself and asked, "How come?" ”

"In the summer, I am going to study in France, and I am the first nursing student we sent to China."

"Oh my God, that's so good?!" Jiarou blurted out.

The third master pouted, "You also think it's good, don't you look down on me?!" ”

"She's going alone?" Jiarou tilted her head, couldn't help laughing, and asked.

"And uncle." The third master used his fist to chisel the bed.

"Oh, my third uncle, no wonder you're depressed." Jiarou laughed.

"Look at me, it's not a joke." The third master also laughed, and said these words from the bottom of his heart, which made him feel very relaxed.

"Third uncle, I'm not giving you relief, Sister Meiyu still likes you. Studying abroad is not a thing of the past, you wait for her, I accompany you and wait for her. ”

The third master looked at the beautiful and kind Jiarou and hugged her tightly into his arms.
