Chapter 737: Sacrifice
On April 4, Yang Mingzhi pulled his wife to get up early. Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info His wine has already woken up, and he should not continue to rest in the new day, not to mention that today is different.
It wasn't dawn yet, but when I looked at my watch, it was already half past six. It was a bit of an anomaly, and as he sat up, he could smell the moisture that filled the air.
No, it could rain today!
The time in Belarus is half a day later than in Northeast China, and now I am afraid that it is already evening there. Qingming is in these few days, and it is also time to worship.
After changing his clothes, Yang Mingzhi lit the kerosene lamp and sorted out the paper money that had been cut on the table. He glanced back at his wife, who had also put on the red belly pocket, and she looked at herself with solemn eyes.
"Brother! Why don't we do it now? β
"yes. Burn paper for your father, it's in this house. β
Hearing him say this, star fruit was very surprised. Even though she had never participated in it because she was a girl, she knew that these activities should not be done indoors. So he asked weakly: "Brother, we can go outside, I have never heard of someone burning paper for the ancestors in the house, even if it is a swing sacrifice, so we are on the side of the road in front of the house." β
This little girl knows a lot, Yang Mingzhi doesn't know this, but now he really can't do this!
Yang Mingzhi scratched his head with a regretful face: "My dear, let's not make trouble at this time." Look at our situation, this is the Soviet Union, there are flocks of hairs everywhere! This group of people does not believe in gods and Buddhas at all, and even has a full face of contempt for those who believe in gods and Buddhas. The two of us knelt down and bowed to the east, and burned paper. They'll think we're pretending, and if that Salinkikin guy finds out, they'll have to ask me to write a document explaining what we're doing. β
"So? Let a sleeping dog lie? Star fruit asked.
"That's right! Now you get out of bed quickly, and we'll get this matter out of the way. No one knows that the door is closed, but it's not right to delay too long. β
Carambola nodded, and said okay yesterday, even if she is already a married daughter, because she has her husband's permission, there is nothing wrong with burning paper for her mother's family, not to mention that the family will live by itself.
But she still had to ask again: "Brother! I think I'll have to burn paper for my parents, and you're also our daughter-in-law anyway. β
This is really funny, at this time, Yang Mingzhi suddenly found that he was a fatherless and motherless person. He appeared out of thin air, like a monkey jumping out of a stone. She also knelt down and kowtowed to her in-laws in the direction of the rising sun?!
Yang Mingzhi let out a long sigh: "Forget it." My dear, your parents-in-law are still alive, but not in this world. To be honest, I miss them very much, but what can I do, if there is a way to go back, I will definitely pull you back and take you to live a happy life with me. β
Carambola sounded inexplicable, and she couldn't understand the obscurity of this at all with her three views, so she had to smile awkwardly and said: "Then I hope that the two elders of them will live well in that world, we will burn paper here, and they will have money to spend." β
The words are unclear, Yang Mingzhi doesn't want to grind anymore, and the annual routine sacrificial activities are quickly completed.
β¦β¦
And just like that, worship and worship, the room was a little smoky, the floor was still a little damp from the logs, and the burnt paper was gathered and swept to the fireplace.
Women are always sentimental, and there are tear stains on star fruit's cheeks. Recalling the sad things, she no longer cried in the dark, towards the east, and she also said a lot to her dead father.
"Daddy, I'm doing well on the other side of the river, I'm not the weak girl I used to be, I fight with my husband, although we're still weak but invincible. Now that the whole world is at war, I was too weak to help you avenge at that time, and I will definitely avenge your revenge in the future......"
She is swearing by a gambling curse, to be honest, she joined the Anti-United Nations to survive back then, and now she plans to take revenge on the devil.
Whether it is good, the Chinese in this era lack nationalism, and many people's thinking is still the emperor's obedience. In troubled times, surviving is a skill in itself. But there is no way to live, like a pig and a dog, to become a domestic animal raised by an invader, and to live this life, it is too disgusting to live. Or just wring up and the invaders and organize the cowardly people into a pack of wolves with nationalism!
Of course, in the USSR, the attitude of the CPSU towards nationalism can be described as ambiguous. As if this was the culprit of the war, it was as if Japan and Germany had preached the fallacy that their nation was the greatest of all, and thus imposed their suffering on other peoples and completely exterminated them by brutal means.
But now, the situation has changed. Yang Mingzhi also had to admit that nationalism has a good point, that is, it can mobilize the entire nation at a critical moment. Now Novgomel, who else thinks that he has responded to the call of the Soviets?! No! Even Stalin's call has changed, from the original defense of the Soviets to the defense of Mother Russia!
Yang Mingzhi never thought that this guy surnamed Iron was Lenin's protΓ©gΓ©, and that joining Tsarist Russia did not collapse, and that Stalin might now be a priest or be shot for robbery.
People's fate always plays a joke on themselves, and Stalin became the leader of the CPSU, and even more so, the leader of the Soviet Union, with all power in one hand, just like Hitler. He is now re-raising the banner of nationalism, which is really too down-to-earth, thinking about the residents of Novgomel, who has no relatives and has not been killed by the German army and the puppet army? The people spontaneously rose up in resistance, not defending the Soviets at all, but defending their own lives and the lives of their relatives and compatriots.
Regardless of the differences between the various ethnic groups before the war, the enemy simply categorized everyone as "Soviets" and the means against the Soviets were unusually simple: enslavement or killing.
Too many people have already died on this battlefield, and the Grim Reaper will not be selective about Maozi and the Chinese. Touching the scar on his arm, Yang Mingzhi always reminded himself that his life is very precious!
But in the battlefield, no one can escape the war, if you don't want to die, then fight!
Yang Mingzhi sat on the edge of the bed, holding his wife's shoulder, and the two of them were warm for a while with their heads against their heads.
"Okay, the paper is also burned, your father, my father-in-law and mother-in-law have knowledge, and they will definitely bless us. I assure you again that even if there is no sign that the Soviet Union will come to our aid, I can say that one day we will lead our own army to fight over and cooperate with the Chinese army to destroy the little devils. β
The star fruit was still in a trance, and when she heard this, she heard it for a moment.
"What? You don't believe it? Now the war situation is quite good for us, this year is 1942, and the anti-fascist battlefield of the whole world will definitely take a huge turn, and then the balance of victory will turn on us. β
Carambola slowly raised her head and looked at her husband with a confused look. "Brother! You say, how good it would be if there was no war, the captured Germans, especially the female nurses. No one is born a devil, but ......"
"But war has broken out, and war has turned good people into bad people. They want to kill us, and for whatever reason they are, we must arm ourselves to defend ourselves. How do we end the war, I think, only by subduing the Germans to the Japanese will the war really end. So ......"
Yang Mingzhi said and went down to the ground, "So, I still have to go to the division headquarters to continue to stay, or I have to rush to the arsenal." Seriously, the current peace in Novgomel is not a handout from the enemy! It was your brother and I who led the people to beat the Germans into fear, and they didn't dare to attack! So I have to continue to research new weapons, and only with murder weapons in our arms will the enemy not dare to hit us! β
