CHAPTER 40
On September 12, 1948, the day Shi Zhu escaped from the barracks in Qingfeng Town, Linyi, the Liaoshen Campaign began, which opened the prelude to the three major strategic battles in the People's Liberation War. At that time, however, the outcome of the war was unpredictable.
On 24 September, the People's Liberation Army (PLA) conquered Jinan, the capital of Shandong, and completely connected the two liberated areas of North China and East China. As far as the Nationalist army is concerned, the whole of Shandong has become a dead chess game, and even the Kuomintang forces in the Haizhou Nationalist Region are like frightened birds, and they are thinking about retreating strategies.
A few days later, the news of the liberation of Jinan reached Guwei, and Shizhu knew that he was completely safe.
At this time, Shizhu's leg injury had healed, and on this day he went to Luo Laosi's house to tell Luo Erfang about it, and the second elder of the Luo family knew that his son had been arrested in Banpu to be a soldier.
Afterwards, Shi Zhu took out a few pieces of steel and said to the second elder of the Luo family: "This is what Er Camel asked me to bring back before he died, please give it to Er Camelina's daughter-in-law!" Shi Zhu couldn't bear to see the painful expression of Luo Erfang's daughter-in-law Jiang, so he left after leaving Gangyang.
The sudden appearance of the stone pillar in the village exploded instantly, and people were amazed how he came back. Immediately, Peng Xiaosi, Qu Dahu, Yang Jin, Dai Changhe, Tan Sanmin, Liu Fu, Jiang Litong and Xia Dongzhi's families all came to inquire about the news, and Shi Zhu could only answer a cold answer truthfully: they were all shot and killed when they fled!
Among these people who were shot, Jiang Litong was also the younger brother of Luo Erjiao's daughter-in-law Jiang, which was a double blow to Jiang.
Knowing that after Shizhu came back, there was a person in the village who was really scared, that was Master Ding, it was he who was behind his back, Shizhu was arrested by the national army to be a soldier, he didn't expect Shizhu to come back alive, he was very afraid that Shizhu would retaliate against him. At this time, Yishan had been liberated, and Master Ding had no backer as a chief waiter, nor did he have the protection of the Communist Party, so he hid at home and did not dare to come out.
But Shi Zhu didn't take revenge on Master Ding, "You don't need me to do it, when we are completely liberated, with the support of the Communist Party, the villagers will naturally not let him go!" I guess it's not going to be a few days! When Shi Zhu went to see Zhang Banxian, he mentioned this topic, and he said this.
Sure enough, more than a month later, the Liaoshen Battle ended victoriously. Four days later, the Huaihai Campaign began, and the Nationalist army began to shrink its forces to Xuzhou, taking the initiative to abandon the ports of Haizhou and Lianyungang, and within a few days, the Haizhou region was completely liberated. Immediately afterwards, under the leadership of the Communist Party, the people of Guwei Village "asked for land" from Mr. Ding, Mr. Liu and large families. For thousands of years, farmers have never had such a status as they do today!
Several landlords in Guwei Village did not oppress the people much on weekdays, and they were not unforgivable criminals, so apart from the land and the toppled courtyard wall, people did not embarrass them too much. But they were still afraid, and hid in the house with their heads shrunk like sparrows.
While the land reform movement was in full swing, in order to fully support the front line of the Huaihai Campaign, Guanyun County set up a front corps, and the county party committee and county government called for "everything for the front line, everything obeyed the front line, and everything obeyed the logistics", and went all out to support the front line with the greatest enthusiasm.
After Shizhu got the news, he also intended to participate in the front of the branch, so he discussed it with his family.
"Pillar, go to the front of the branch? That's a good thing! What are you going to do? ”
Shi Zhu said happily: "I am old *** ten years ago, when the Japanese devils fought in Haizhou, Zhu Huaiqing and I carried the wounded on the front line of Yuntai Mountain, this time I plan to send the stretcher first, and then stay on the front line to carry the wounded, and then come back after the battle!" ”
"This, this, this, I don't agree anyway! It's too dangerous......"
"You see that the People's Liberation Army, fighting for our people, rushing to the front line, that is more dangerous, why aren't people afraid? We are in the rear to contribute to the front, and that is also how it should be! Shi Zhu's face sank suddenly.
"Pillars, that's different, if you are a soldier, you have to rush ahead in battle. So many people go to carry stretchers, not bad for you! ”
"My grandmother, if everyone thinks like you and is afraid, then no one will go!"
"I'm not afraid! If no one goes to the battlefield and no one carries a stretcher, I'll be the first to send you up! The point is that there are so many people going now, you don't have to take that risk anymore. We can push a cart to deliver food, even if we plant the land at home and give more food to the PLA, it is also a front! ”
"My grandmother, you are a small farmer, and you don't have a sense of the overall situation!"
"We are ordinary people, and we don't have such a high consciousness. What are we going to do? Isn't it just that the family is safe and sound! I'm all over seventy, and even if I sleep tonight, I'll live enough. Look at the two children, look at Sien, if you go to the risk, in case there are three long and two short, how can they live? ”
"My grandmother, the People's Liberation Army also has a small family, don't you also go to the battlefield! I won't tell you, but it's up to Si'en to say it. With that, Shi Zhu turned his face to Ji's.
Ji definitely didn't want Shi Zhu to take this risk, she had been listening to the argument between the two on the side, without squeaking, and only after listening to Shi Zhu's question, she said: "He, I see, what grandma said makes sense!" In the more than half a year that you have been away, I have been scared every day, afraid that you will not come back. You're back, but I'm still afraid, afraid that one day when I open my eyes, you'll leave again. Ji picked up his son at this time, and hugged Shi Shuo to his side, "Now that I am finally looking forward to liberation, if you have three long and two short, what will these two children do!" I just want to be together as a family! ”
Hearing this, Shi Yushi laughed first, "Zhuzi, you see, it's still good what people say Sien!" ”
Shi Zhu saw that his daughter-in-law did not agree to go to the front line by himself, so he said with some regret: "Then I won't go to carry the wounded, I'll push the cart and deliver food, it's always okay, right?" ”
"That's right, pillar. However, you are not allowed to send food to the front line, let's send the kind of medium and short distances! ”
Shi Zhu also knew that he was no longer the same person he was ten years ago, and at that time, except for his grandmother, there was no other concern in his heart, or there were no other fetters. And now, I have a daughter-in-law and a pair of children, and there are too many things to worry about. I not only want to repay the savior Communist Party and make a contribution, but also take care of my family.
"That, I know in my heart, I'll sign up tomorrow!" After some thought, the stone pillar finally "compromised".
The next day, Shizhu got up early in the morning, and invited Zhang Banxian's grandson Zhang Damao and several other young men in the village, and followed the team to the Tanggou Grain and Grass Station after registering.
"The sky in the liberated areas is clear, and the people in the liberated areas like ...... very much"
"Bitter vegetables, flowers blooming, all over the hills, the people's branches, busy in the front, the front and rear regiments, unite the army and the people, fight the tigers and wolves, fight the tigers and wolves."
......
More than 40 years later, when Shi Zhu recounted this experience over and over again with his great-grandchildren, he still vividly remembers that the streets and alleys of Tanggou were full of these uplifting songs. On the way, the local people brought them water and food, and often heard the little girls of the People's Liberation Army Art Troupe wearing red scarves and singing in Allegro: The People's Liberation Army sacrificed blood for us, and the people in the rear of the front line pushed forward to send grain and grass to Xuzhou, and the south of the Yangtze River was liberated, and the whole of China was completely turned over.
At that time, Shi Zhu and Da Mao were in pairs, taking turns pushing carts and pulling carts, if it weren't for the fear that the small wheels would be crushed, it was estimated that they could push a thousand catties or ten thousand catties in a cart. Before leaving, they did not forget to take a sip of the wine in Tanggou Town, one to warm their bodies, and the other to be strong.
Subsequently, the group pushed the wheelbarrow, under the leadership of Wang Yanqiu, the captain of the Guanyun Migrant Workers Transport Corps, and Ma Xiuqing, the deputy captain, followed the mighty team all the way to the west, against the rumbling northwest wind, through Shuyang, Suqian, Suining to Lingbi, a journey of more than 300 miles. On the way, they encountered planes of the national army several times, dropped a few bombs and machine guns, and fired frantically with "da-da". Fortunately, the evacuation was timely, except for the loss of some food, no one was injured for the time being. Later, everyone simply changed to rest during the day and hurry at night.
From Lingbi to the west, we approached the front line, where the sound of artillery could be heard. Shi Zhu and Da Mao handed over the car to the local support personnel according to the consultation when they came, and then left the Guanyun Migrant Workers Brigade with the same part of the people and returned from the same way. On the way, the front team is still coming from all directions.
When passing through Suining, Shizhu and they met a convoy of oxen, horses, mules, and donkeys carrying grain from Shandong. Shi Zhu was a bold and enthusiastic person, and he was not afraid when he saw the living, so he chatted with those car drivers: "Fellow countryman, your car is still powerful, one car can drag a thousand catties of grain, catch up with several of our cars!" ”
Shandong people are also enthusiastic, and when they saw someone coming to talk, a few uncles said happily: "Young man, Ladora is all for the front line." After all, we have a small carriage or something, and we have to rely mainly on your small carts, and you have made great efforts, which is the hardest. We're just driving the animals. ”
As he spoke, a mule cart passed by, and on board sat a woman and a young man, and white smoke was billowing from the nostrils of the mule. The woman who was driving the cart suddenly tightened the reins and shouted to the animal, "Woo ---."
Hearing such a word, Shi Zhu's thoughts suddenly turned a thousand times, and he hurriedly turned his head to the chariot driver. The voice was familiar. The woman who was driving the car also hurriedly jumped out of the car and looked at the stone pillar, her eyes full of surprise. "Pillar, it's really you!" Apparently, she recognized the stone pillar.
"Well, Aunt Nizi, it's me!" Shi Zhu also recognized that the woman who was driving the car was Feng Nizi.
"Zhuzi, it's been more than ten years, I didn't expect to meet you here! Now that they've grown so strong, I'm getting old! You're also here to support the front? Feng Nizi's hands kept patting Shizhu's shoulders, and her heart was happy.
"Well, auntie, as soon as the Huaihai Battle starts, we will be liberated, don't we want to contribute to the front line."
"We Jiningna, a few months earlier than you, was liberated in the summer, and I came to deliver two trips of food!"
"It's all liberated!" Shi Zhu then asked, "Auntie, is Daddy Feng okay now?" ”
At this time, Feng Nizi showed an expression that seemed to be smiling but not smiling, as if she was sad but not sad, and said: "My father, in the spring of the second year when you went to our place last time, he died of illness, it's been ten years, and I've cried, let's not mention him, let's be happy." Tell me, how are you doing? Aunt Shi, is she okay? ”
"Well, my grandmother is almost seventy years old, her body is quite tough, and her spirit is good. I, the little devil got married after surrendering, the eldest girl is three years old this year, and the son is just half a year old. At the mention of these, Shi Zhu's face was full of joy.
"Yes, yes! Pillar, I'm happy for you! So, who is your daughter-in-law? ”
"Auntie, have you forgotten? You and Daddy Feng were both here back then! ”
"Hahahaha, it's really the little girl who was still wrapped in a small quilt at that time! I didn't expect the doll to be set back then, and it really became a baby! After all these years of chaos and disasters, it is really not easy for the two of you to get together! Now that you are liberated, you can live a good life. I, hearing you say this, I really want to see this Ji girl again! ”
Feng Nizi's last talk about meeting Shizhu's daughter-in-law was actually a casual joke, but Shizhu took it seriously. "Auntie, since you met here, it's better to go to the house and sit down, it's not very far. My grandmother still thinks about you a lot, and I want to meet you! ”
Hearing this, Feng Nizi was a little embarrassed, "Zhuzi, look, it's not appropriate for us to go to your house suddenly!" ”
"Auntie, it's not in the way, our two families are far apart, so we don't move around much. In fact, when you go to your house, it's like you're in your own house! Shi Zhu was sincerely invited, and he had another thing in mind, "Auntie, do you remember the 'Thorn Dragon Dagger' that Daddy Feng lent me, it was your family's heirloom, and I said at that time that I would return it to Daddy Feng when I ran out." A few years ago, I killed Liu Fulong with that dagger and avenged my father. Now that Daddy Wind is gone, I'll give it back to you. I left the dagger at home, I didn't bring it out, you can just pile it up with me and go to Haizhou! ”
Feng Nizi saw that Shizhu mentioned the Thorn Dragon Dagger, hesitated, and then thought about it a little, first go to Haizhou to stay for two days and then return to Jining, it will not delay things, she said: "That's good! I'll take Huzi to see Aunt Shi together! ”
After the matter was agreed, Feng Nizi explained to the fellow villagers in the convoy and drove the mule cart to Haizhou. Shi Zhu only invited Da Mao to sit on it and left the team first. Although the two of them saved some leg strength along the way, they sat there and did not move, and they felt even colder than when they came.
When it was time to rest, Shi Zhu saw that Bao Huzi had not spoken, so he asked, "Huzi, how old is this year?" ”
I saw that Huzi was still the same as when he was a child, only clinging to his mother, looking at people with wide eyes, and not speaking.
"This kid!" Feng Nizi complained a little, but she was also very helpless, "After the New Year, Huzi will be nineteen." Although I can say a few words when I meet acquaintances now, when I meet people I don't know, I still hide next to me just like when I was a child. I don't feel at ease by keeping him at home. I have five children now! Feng Nizi laughed, "Huzi and his second brother followed his father to the railway to repair the railway." The three younger ones were still in school, so they stayed at home and their grandmother took care of them. ”
Speaking of this, Feng Nizi said to her eldest son: "Huzi, you forgot, when you fell into the water when you were a child, it was Brother Zhuzi who rescued you, and he is our benefactor." Brother Zhu asked you, why didn't you say it? ”
"My mother, I remembered!" After speaking, Huzi said to Shizhu: "Brother Zhuzi, I am eighteen this year!" ”
Shizhu smiled at Huzi. Sure enough, when he met an acquaintance, Huzi could still say a few words.
At this time, Feng Nizi said: "This kid is not stupid or stupid, but he is a little withdrawn. I'm worried, what will happen to this daughter-in-law in the future? When you meet a living person, you don't say a word to them! ”
Shi Zhu said: "Auntie, you don't have to worry, the boat will naturally go straight to the bridge." Fate is a thing, no one can say! ”
As he spoke, the sky gradually became gloomy, and after a while, it snowed heavily, and the northwest wind blew even more violently, and several people hurriedly wrapped the quilt tightly. Feng Nizi shook the reins, and the mule immediately quickened his pace, and they were about to reach their next place before dark.
The next day was snowy and sunny, and in the evening, Shizhu and they rushed to Guwei Village.
In fact, Shi Yu and Ji are not idle at home these days, they are the same as all the turned-out farmers in the village, township, and county, they are all grinding noodles, making military shoes, making cotton clothes, and doing what they can for the support in their own way.
Now even the landlords' families are scrambling to hand over the grain to support the front, although they are somewhat reluctant. Those who committed the most heinous crimes have been criticized, tried in public, punished, and even shot. Those who are good do not know what their fate will be in the future, so whether they are sincere or fake, they have no other way out than to cater to the new regime and accept land reform.
When Shi Zhu arrived in the courtyard, the Golden Retriever was the first to rush out to greet him, followed by Shi Shuo who ran out. Shi Yu and Ji were naturally happy to see Shi Zhu come back, but Shi Zhu seemed to come back earlier, so Shi Yu asked, "Zhuzi, I've only been there for more than ten days, and I'm back so soon?" ”
Shi Zhu didn't care about explaining, picked up Shi Shuo, and said happily as soon as he entered the door: "My grandmother, look, who's coming?" ”
Shi Yu only saw that Shi Zhu had brought two people to his house, and when he heard him ask, he squinted his eyes and took a look through the faint sunlight. Feng Nizi brushed her hair back again, allowing Shi Yushi to take a closer look.
After only taking a breath, Shi Yushi's eyes suddenly widened in surprise, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he said while holding Feng Nizi's hand: "Ah, isn't this Nizi!" For more than 20 years, I've been thinking about you two. Come, come, come, hurry up and sit down and talk. Ji then brought two stools and asked them all to sit down.
Feng Nizi also said happily: "Aunt Shi, I have been thinking about you all the time!" This time I went to the battlefield, and it was a coincidence that I met a pillar on the way, so I came with him to see you. I heard that the pillar is also married, so I just happened to come to see the daughter of the Ji family! She looked at Ji again and asked, "Girl, you must be the daughter-in-law of the pillar, right?" ”
Ji stood up and said with a smile: "Auntie, it's been more than twenty years, it's rare that you can still remember me." I often hear my grandmother mention you and tell us about the past! ”
Feng Nizi also stood up at this time, looked Ji Sien carefully up and down, left and right, and kept praising in her mouth: "Oh, the girl is long, these eyes, the bridge of the nose, the mouth, the face, and this figure, just like that Li Xianglan, so handsome!" Not at all like a mother of two! What a blessing the pillars are! ”
"Auntie, how can I say it so well as you say!" Ji smiled and lowered his head.
"Hey, this girl is still embarrassed!" After a while, Feng Nizi pulled Huzi over and said to Shi Yu and Ji: "Auntie, girl, this is my eldest son, Bao Huzi!" Huzi, you call someone quickly......" Seeing that Huzi didn't squeak, she gently pushed Huzi again. I saw that Huzi was still standing there, just looking at Shi Yu and the two of them, smiling slightly, but still without words. Feng Nizi had no choice but to sigh and say, "Alas! My son, he was withdrawn when he was a child, afraid of people, didn't deal with others, and followed me all day long! It's eighteen or nineteen, and it's not good! ”
The women always have endless words, and in the evening, the old, middle, and young people gathered around the faint kerosene lamp, chatting while holding the soles of their shoes, and talked about the things of the past 20 years, lamenting that time is fleeting, life is like a dream, and sighing that liberation is possible, and there is hope for the days to come.
Yes, only those who have experienced those decades can truly understand what liberation is and what it means to turn over. It wasn't until everything was quiet that the lights were picked up a few times, and the three of them fell asleep. If you haven't finished talking yet, we'll continue tomorrow.
The next day was still a sunny day, and Feng Nizi knew that every family was busy supporting the front, and it was inconvenient to stay at Shizhu's house longer, so she planned to take Huzi back to Jining after dinner. Unexpectedly, in the morning, several guests came to the Shi family, so Feng Nizi had to stay for two more days.
Just as the three of them were chatting energetically while holding the soles of their shoes, two people suddenly came in the courtyard. The golden retriever heard the movement, and "Wang" screamed, and then lay there again, wagging his tail and playing with Shi Shuo.
A few people looked towards the courtyard, and Shi Yushi immediately stood up slowly and beckoned: "Zhu Xiaofei, why are you free today?" Come, come, sit, sit! Spring flowers, you sit too! ”
Seeing that someone was there, Shen Yueyun said, "Aunt Shi, are there relatives at home today?" ”
"Yes, here comes the relatives. By the way, he's a little girl, guess who they are? I'll just tell you, it's from Jining! ”
Shen Yueyun thought for a while and said, "Since it is from Jining, it must be the eldest sister of the Feng family!" When I was in the port, I often heard the pillar tell you stories, went to Mangdang Mountain with my father to catch pythons, and once went alone to catch poisonous snakes. Heroine! Feng Nizi said with a smile: "Sister, you have won the award, these are all things a long time ago, don't mention it!" ”
Everyone didn't pay attention, and as soon as Chunhua entered the door, Huzi kept staring at her.
In the midst of the laughter of several people, Shen Yueyun said to Shi Yu's family: "Aunt Shi, I really have something to do this time." As you all know, now that they have been liberated, many landlords have been criticized and labeled as an exploiting class. Although our family is not a landlord, he has been doing business in the port, and now the rumors are getting stronger and stronger that we are all capitalists and the exploiting class. I'm afraid we're going to be criticized soon......"
As soon as she said this, Shi Shuo accidentally fell in the yard, and Chunhua immediately ran over to help her up, and when she walked back, she accidentally collided with Huzi who had just returned from going to the toilet, and the two young people instantly blushed to the base of their necks.
Shen Yueyun and the others saw Chunhua going to Fu Shishuo, but they didn't pay attention to the things behind, and continued to chat: "Guanglian and I are old, but we are not afraid, but we are afraid that it will affect the children." No, Chunhua is nineteen this year, so we want to help her find a good in-law as soon as possible, so as not to be affected by our family in the future! ”
Shi Yushi said: "Chunhua, this girl is indeed not small! It's rare that you have always treated her as a daughter! ”
"Yes! I brought her over today, just to see if there is a suitable person to marry her here, it is more than ten miles away from our Zhuzhuang, even if we are criticized, it will not affect Chunhua. Second, if you marry here, you can still take care of anything! ”
Speaking of Chunhua's lifelong events, several people paid attention to her. At this time, they noticed that Chunhua was chatting with Huzi in the yard - yes, that withdrawn boy could actually chat happily with Chunhua!
Seeing this scene, Feng Nizi couldn't believe her eyes, since she was a child, Huzi had never chatted like this with a stranger, to be exact, she had never chatted like this with anyone, even her own mother. Now, it is unprecedented, he can talk to a girl he met for the first time.
"Look, Huzi, he, he, he, he's talking to people!" Feng Nizi pointed at Huzi, so excited that she stammered a little.
Shen Yueyun didn't understand the situation, thinking that something was wrong with Huzi talking to Chunhua, and she looked puzzled. Feng Nizi also saw it, so she told her about Huzi's situation again, and she was still excited in her heart.
Hearing this, Shen Yueyun asked, "Sister Feng, how old is your tiger?" ”
"Eighteen!"
"Eighteen, that's a sheep!"
Hearing Shen Yueyun say the word "sheep", Shi Yushi said suspiciously: "You may not believe it when you say it, I dreamed last night that someone led a white horse to the door to find a big white sheep, and the horse still had a small handful in its mouth. Then I saw that the white horse was gone away with the white sheep......"
"'Horses' looking for 'sheep'?" Shen Yueyun said, "Spring flowers belong to horses, could it be the two of them?" ”
Shi Yushi smiled and said: "He is a little concubine, in this world, fate is very wonderful!" Take me as an example, the first time I met Shizhu and his father on the road, I came to Haizhou with him! ”
Shen Yueyun pondered for a long time after hearing this, and watched the two young people chatting so happily, so she asked, "Sister Feng, what do you think of the spring flowers?" ”
Feng Nizi is not a stupid person, hearing Shen Yueyun ask this, she already has eighty percent in her heart. Although Lu Chunhua does not have the appearance of a sinking fish and a goose, she is dignified and generous, and she must have been used to housework since she was a child, and she is not a lazy person. Feng Nizi then said: "Sister, the spring flowers are very cute, if you want to say that compared with my family Huzi, it is 108,000 miles higher!" ”
"What do you think of marrying Chunhua to your Huzi?"
"Sister, if that's the case, it's a blessing that my family has cultivated for eight lifetimes. I'm 10,000 willing! This made Feng Nizi very happy, but before the matter was finalized, she said again: "I don't know if Chunhua will agree!" ”
After listening, Shen Yueyun called Chunhua aside, explained the meaning of today's visit, and then asked, "Chunhua, what do you think of Huzi?" ”
Chunhua said: "Madame treats me like a daughter, you can call the shots in this matter!" ”
"Ahem! What age is it now, you don't want your parents to call the shots, you just have to decide! I just want you to say a word, if you don't like people, just tell me straight, and I'll help you find a good family again! ”
I saw Chunhua rubbing her hands and replied shyly: "I think he is quite honest, I don't look down on him......"
"That's it, that's it! It's a little far, but you can come back and see us when you have time. And I heard Zhuzi mention his family, they are all authentic and honest people, and if you marry there, you won't lose it! The matter must be something, Shen Yueyun said to everyone: "I discussed it with the child when I came, Chunhua's parenting matter should not be delayed, as soon as it is decided, pick a good day to get married." We are really worried that we will be labeled as a capitalist class at any time, for fear that it will affect her future. ”
At this time, Feng Nizi seemed to have some scruples, and spoke slightly: "Sister, there is another thing I don't want to go, you see, this time I came temporarily, I didn't bring anything, this, the bride price ......."
"The bride price, it's all a trivial matter, don't worry, if you don't have it, you might as well, we will give Chunhua some dowry when the time comes!"
Just as they were talking happily, the stone pillar returned. He and some young people in the village helped to load the grain in front of the branch into a sack, and then carried it into the car, and then came back from the busy work. After hearing about this, he said happily: "Auntie, don't we still have a ready-made meeting gift!" ”
I saw Shi Zhu go to the house and take out the thorn dragon dagger, respectfully handed it to Feng Nizi, and said, "Auntie, this handpiece is your family's heirloom, priceless!" Back then, Daddy Feng lent me a favorite, and now I'll give it back to you, can't you just take this heirloom as a meeting gift and give it to Chunhua! ”
"Oops! So that's it! Before Feng Nizi could speak, Shi Yushi suddenly slapped his thigh, "It turns out that the white horse in the dream is holding this handful in his mouth!" I just said, the fate of the two of them is destined! After speaking, Shi Yushi asked Huzi: "Huzi, tell the big milk, are you happy today?" ”
Huzi still didn't speak, just smiled. But this time he was standing next to Chunhua, his hand clutching the corner of her clothes.
"Huzi, I have a daughter-in-law, I forgot about your mother so quickly!" When everyone heard Shi Yu's ridicule like this, they all laughed.
The day when Lu Chunhua went out was chosen two days later on the twentieth day of the eleventh lunar month.
After everything was settled, the mule cart that Feng Nizi had arrived in became the wedding car for the bride, washed it, and hung it with big red flowers. The wedding car departed from Shizhu's house and went to Zhu Guanglian's house to pick up Lu Chunhua. Time is pressing, this time Zhu Guanglian only invited the clan relatives of Zhuangshang. Shi Zhu saw that he hadn't seen him for a year, and Zhu Guanglian, who had not yet reached half a hundred, had half a head of gray hair.
Bao Huzi and Lu Chunhua seem to have an "intersection": eleven years ago, when Shizhu went to Jining, he inadvertently rescued Huzi who fell into the water, and he took away the thorny dragon dagger that year; Ten years ago, Shi Zhu sneaked back to Guanglian Trading House at the risk of being caught by the Japanese, and accidentally met Lu Chunhua who came to defect, which was considered to have saved Chunhua's life, when he was trying to retrieve the thorn dragon dagger. Now, the stone pillar has returned the thorny dragon dagger.
It can be said that Shi Zhu is not only their benefactor, but also a destined matchmaker.
Before leaving, Huzi and Chunhua specially kowtowed to the stone pillar, from the heart. Until the day he told the story to the hanging water bottle in the hospital, Shi Zhu did not forget the incident.
