Although the Shanghai Station of the Secrecy Bureau placed a small western-style building for Zhu Hongda according to the level, so that Zhu Hongda could move in, Zhu Hongda was still thinking about the east wing of No. 18 Jixiangli, because it was closer to his dream lover, since He San died inexplicably that time, it has been more than a year, and he has never stepped into Jixiangli again, this is not because he is afraid that Mrs. Du will tell No. 76, now it is no longer the world of the Japanese, if a big traitor like He San had not died early, he would have been shot a long time ago, Those 76th spies have long since become frightened birds, going their separate ways. The reason why he hasn't stayed in the East Wing for so long is because first, Shuxian gave birth to a child, and the newborn is the mother's concern and bond, even if he stays in the East Wing, he has no chance to talk to Shuxian; Second, there were too many things this year, either to receive officials at all levels to check and collect the reverse production, or to exterminate the Communist Party and the remnants of traitors, later, Yu Peiliang died, and he had to worry about all the big and small things in the station, so he simply took the station as his home, and put a single bed in a small room in the stationmaster's office, and work, eat, and sleep were all here. His diligence was rewarded by the peak, and it also made the other colleagues in the station respect him.

The small western-style building assigned to him by the station used to be the residence of an industrialist in Shanghai, because the industrialist had been coerced by the Japanese and had made several transactions with the Japanese, so he was given a traitor's hat, his family property was confiscated, and he was imprisoned.

Zhu Hongda went to see this three-story small western-style building, and he really liked it. European baroque design style, exterior walls, floor tiles, wall decorations, bathrooms, etc. are well-made, and there is an old but very delicate fireplace, in the winter evening, the sunset is shining, drink a glass of whiskey by the fireplace, or with your loved ones, it is really a cozy and romantic. He imagined that this place would be his and Shuxian's love nest in the future, but now that his lover is not here, he will inevitably feel empty when he lives alone in it, so he plans to live in the east wing of No. 18 Jixiangli.

On this day, Zhu Hongda was reviewing the documents, and the orderly brought in a mother and son. Zhu Hongda looked up and saw that it was his wife and children who he hadn't seen for many years, his son, who was still a toddler at the beginning, and now he was an eight-year-old child. And his dregs wife, Wang, has also been born early, and her face is old.

"Why are you here?" Zhu Hongda was very surprised, he didn't expect his wife and children who had been separated for many years to appear in front of him.

"Hongda, the Anti-Japanese War has been won for several days, I originally thought you would come back to see us, but I can't wait for the left and the right can't wait, I'm afraid that you will forget our mother and son, so I came to you." Wang was full of grievances.

"I'm busy with work, you see, there are so many documents on my desk that I need to review, how can I have time to go back to my hometown?" Zhu Hongda pointed to the pile of documents on the table.

Wang Shi looked at the pile of documents, then at Zhu Hongda, wanted to speak and stopped, and after a while, he still said the doubts in his heart: "I heard from the neighbors that many big officials have wives of the Anti-Japanese War, so they give their wives in the countryside to rest, or simply don't go home, I'm afraid that you will be the same as them."

"You really have long hair and short knowledge, you see I'm so busy that I sleep in the office, how can I have time to find other women, you, you love to think nonsense."

Zhu Hongda interrupted Wang, a little displeased, although Wang's doubts were not unreasonable, and he did have this intention, but he couldn't help but feel a little resentful when Wang's statement was broken.

"Then I will not go back this time, I will bring Zong'er with me, you can arrange a place for our mother and son." Wang's family is simply planning to stay here for a long time and never leave Zhu Hongda.

"Why are you so ignorant? Is this the place where I drag my family? I think you'd better go back to your hometown. Zhu Hongda was even more simply, completely ignoring the fatigue of his wife and children, his husband and father's heart, and the hardships of bumpy roads all the way here, but persuaded them to hurry up and go home.

"I won't go back, Hongda, I've been doing filial piety to your parents in my hometown for so many years, bringing you the eldest child, you can't be so unconscionable, Wang Baochuan has been waiting for the cold kiln for 18 years, do you want me to stay alone in the empty house for 18 years?" Wang Shi said, wiping her tears with her sleeve, she didn't expect Zhu Hongda to be so ruthless.

Zhu Hongda sighed, indeed, he was sorry for his wife and children, he pulled Wang's sleeve and handed her a handkerchief: "Don't cry, it's not good for others to see, after all, I am the stationmaster here, you have to give me some face." ”

"You have become a great official, and we have followed you, and we have not enjoyed any blessings, but we have suffered a lot of crimes. Hongda, let me and Zong'er stay with you. Wang begged Zhu Hongda.

Zhu Hongda thought about it and decided to let the mother and son live in the western-style building, although he had no relationship with the Wang family, but his son was his blood and blood, and he still liked it. Anyway, I don't live in this small western-style building now, and it's a waste to keep it empty, so it's better to let this mother and son live in it, so that outsiders can see it, and they will say that he Zhu Hongda is a kind and righteous person, not only did he not dislike his wife, but he also gave her the best courtesy. This can be regarded as worthy of the hard work she put in to raise his son.

"In this case, I'll ask the orderlies to take you to live in a small western-style building. How about arranging a babysitter for you? Zhu Hongda told Wang his plan, and in his opinion, these courtesies were enough to send Wang away.

"Living in a small western-style building? And a babysitter to serve? Wang Shi burst into tears and laughed: "Zong'er, your father is really a conscientious person, we are not wrong to come this time." ”

Zhu Hongda called the orderly, asked him to take the mother and son to the western-style house, and stuffed a wad of banknotes into Wang's hand.

When Yulin and Shuyan returned home, the fat aunt had already prepared the meal, and Yulin and Shuyan ate with the fat aunt. Suddenly, the phone rang, Yu Lin picked up the phone, and the voice of the tiger boy came from the other end of the phone.

"Young master, my stomach hurts, it hurts." There was a cry for help from the tiger boy on the phone.

"Tiger Boy, what's wrong with you? Hey, Tiger Boy, talk. Yu Lin asked eagerly.

There was no sound on the other end of the phone, Yulin felt that it was not good, and hurriedly rushed to the light and shadow photo studio with the fat aunt. When I opened the door, the tiger boy covered his stomach in pain and rolled on the ground.

Yulin quickly picked up the tiger boy, called a rickshaw, and sent the tiger boy to St. Mary's Hospital.

The doctor examined it and determined that the tiger cub had acute appendicitis, so he immediately underwent surgery.

"Fortunately, I was sent to the hospital in time, otherwise the intestine was perforated. It's not dangerous now. The doctor breathed a sigh of relief, as did Yulin and the fat aunt.

"Fat aunt, you go home first, I'll stay here tonight with the tiger boy." Yulin persuaded the fat aunt to go home and rest first.

"Then what's the matter, you go back to sleep, I'll accompany the tiger boy here." The fat aunt can't help it, how can she let the young master accompany the tiger boy for the night?

"Fat aunt, don't fight, let's do it, today I'm on duty, tomorrow you're on duty, we'll take turns to take care of it, okay?" Yulin proposed a compromise solution.

The fat aunt saw Yulin's resolute attitude, so she no longer insisted.

At night, Yu Lin waited for the tiger cub to take medicine, drink water, and go to the toilet, and saw that the tiger cub was sleeping peacefully, so he fell on the aisle with his clothes and squinted for a while. But before he slept for half an hour, another patient was brought in, and the patient kept screaming in pain, and Yulin couldn't close his eyes, so he simply got up and walked in the aisle.

Yu Lin's eyes were red after not sleeping all night, and the next morning, the fat aunt came to pick up Yu Lin's class, Yu Lin hurriedly rinsed his mouth, wiped his face, and went to work at the newspaper.

Today is Shuxian's death anniversary, although it is impossible for Yulin to pay tribute to Shuxian at home, but Shuxian is always in his mind, and he can only silently commemorate his beloved wife in his heart.

In the private room of a tavern, Yulin asked for two bottles of liquor and two wine glasses, filled them with wine, then raised a wine glass, and said softly in his mouth: "Shuxian, today is the day when you left me for a whole year, this first glass of wine, I respect you, I respect you for so many years, I will never abandon me, live and die together." ”

Yulin drank his own glass of wine, and picked up another glass of wine opposite: "Shuxian, I drank this cup for you." Yu Lin craned his neck and did it all. Then fill two glasses again.

"Shuxian, this second glass of wine has left me a pair of children, don't worry, I will definitely pull them into adults, let them become responsible, accomplished, enthusiastic, benevolent and righteous people."

Yu Lin drank these two more glasses of wine. Then fill the two glasses again.

"Shuxian, this third cup of wine, I respect your loyalty to the cause of our party, and you do not hesitate to sacrifice your life for the sake of those cultural relics that can be passed on to future generations. You are not only a good wife and mother, you are also an atmospheric woman, a person with a capital letter. ”

Yu Lin raised his head and drank the wine in the cup, and then fell on the table alone and cried bitterly.

Yu Lin was drunk and fell on the wine table, the tavern was about to close, Yu Lin was supported by the young man and walked out of the tavern. Yulin held a wine bottle in his hand, staggered towards Jixiangli, and was almost hit by a car on the way, and then collapsed under a treeside tree on the side of the road.

Ah Rong was about to go to the night shift that day, and when he saw a person on the side of the road, he hurriedly stepped forward to check, and saw that it was Mr. Ouyang from the West Wing, who hurriedly helped him up and sent him home.

"Auntie, my uncle was drunk and fell on the side of the road, it's always dangerous, fortunately there is no car coming, otherwise he will be crushed to death."

"Ah Rong, thanks to being seen by Nong, thank you Nong for sending Yi back. Nong come in and sit for a while? "So-yeon is very grateful to Ah Rong.

"Don't ask for it, don't ask for it, I'm going to work the night shift, I'm going to be late, goodbye, Auntie." Ah Rong hurriedly walked out.

After Ah Rong left, Shuyan squeezed a hot towel to wipe Yulin's face. Then poured a cup of strong tea for Yulin to decanter.

Yu Lin drank a few sips of strong tea and seemed to be sober a lot.

"Yulin, what's wrong with you, why are you drinking like this?" Sook-yeon opens the window to let out the smell of alcohol that fills the room.

"Shuyan, do you know, today is the first anniversary of Shuxian's death, I want to pay tribute to her, but I can't worship her publicly, I can only go to the tavern alone and talk to her about my heart." Yu Lin said, burying his face in the palm of his hand.

After Shuyan heard this, tears poured out like a burst, she walked up to Yu Lin, hugged his head, and comforted him: "Yu Lin, I know you are bitter in your heart, if you want to cry, cry happily." ”

Yulin hugged Shuyan and cried.

Yulin was tired of crying and fell on the sofa, Shuxian put a blanket on Yulin, looking at his handsome face, Shuyan's heart seemed to be pinched.

At night, Shuyan tossed and turned and couldn't sleep, so she simply stood up, walked to the window, and stared blankly at the night sky outside the window, maybe Shuxian had turned into a star and was staring at herself in the night sky.

Yu Lin felt a splitting headache, he got up from the sofa and saw a graceful woman standing by the window.

"Shuxian, it's Shuxian." Yu Lin called softly, and he walked over and hugged Shuyan tightly from behind.

"Shuxian, you're finally back, I want to kill you, don't leave me again, don't leave me." Yu Lin said, and was about to kiss his Shuxian
