Honghong was about to open the door, but when she heard a cry inside, she had to whisper inside: "Mom, Mom, open the door, open the door quickly!" ”

The terrible scene of being caught by Jiliu during the day was still spinning in the mind of the second aunt's wife, as if the black pistol was still in front of her eyes, and the bright knife was still pressed on her neck...... She was frightened and fainted, and she didn't have the courage to struggle.

She was crying, tears like two springs of water, soaking the pillow. During the day, as soon as she heard the news of Platoon Commander Wang's arrest, her heart was broken! When Honghongzi came, she really wanted to open her mouth to tell her something, but Zhu Xinzhai was by her side, and she was afraid that if she said it, Honghong would also suffer. And when she heard Honghong say that Platoon Commander Wang and others were rescued by the Eighth Route Army, she threatened the Eighth Route Army again and almost told her true feelings, but Zhu Xinzhai came in again...... What else could she do but the pain of breaking her heart? What a poor woman!

The second aunt is just like a grass that grows in the sun. This grass is so weak and can't help the wind, like ununearthed leek sprouts, it looks very pleasant, but it is the most lacking in resistance, the most vulnerable to damage and death. For this reason, those poisonous insects love to bite it the most, and livestock also love to eat it and trample on it. If this delicate grass is planted in broad daylight, it will be well hydrated and nourished, and it will thrive. However, how difficult it is to cultivate it.

The second aunt was crying, when she heard someone calling the door, and recognized that it was her daughter's voice, so she quickly stopped crying and said:

"Hongzi, is there something wrong with you?"

"Mom. Open the door! Open, open the door! ”

"Oh, it's still going to be dawn, go back to sleep, and come back at dawn." She said this so that her daughter would not see her mother's tears, and when she thought about it again, she hurriedly wiped her tears and went down the kang to open the door. Morning light had just crept up the window carefully, and everything in the room was still invisible, just a blurry black shadow.

Although Honghong stood in front of her mother, she couldn't see her mother's face bathed in tears, but she could tell that her mother's lips were twitching from the cry she heard just now. When I came in, I asked, "Mom, what are you crying about?" ”

"I, I don't have anything, I don't have anything." The mother tried desperately to suppress the cry that rushed up, but her voice still had an obvious crying tone, and she trembled more and more with anger, "Ah, Honghong! What are you looking for? ”

"Mom!" Honghong didn't have time to ask her mother why she was crying, her breathing became short, "You say, who is my father?" ”

"Huh?!" Honghong's mother stared at her daughter's face in surprise. Although she couldn't see the child's expression clearly, she felt that the woman was occupied by resentment. Immediately after she was taken aback, she felt a wave of terror. She forced her composure and said, "Who is he?" You, you're big, you're big. How do you ask about this? ”

"Mom! Did you know? What is his pleasure in connecting with the Japanese devils? Only a villain traitor can do this kind of thing! Mom, tell me quickly, do you know what he did? The more Honghong spoke, the stronger her anger and hatred became, and she grabbed her mother's hand hard. The mother was surprised to see that her daughter's hands were shaking and cold.

The second aunt's whole body twitched violently, and her body sat weakly on the edge of the kang. Obviously, although she doesn't understand what a traitor is, she knows from the child's mouth that it is not a good name, and she can't hide it anymore. But when she thought of the terrible consequences, she had to cover it up vigorously. She said with difficulty: "Hongzi, hurry, don't talk nonsense." Why, how can this happen......"

Honghong jerked back the hand that was holding her mother, and said resolutely, "Mom! I did a big thing to betray the conscience of the Chinese, I don't know if I went to school outside, but why didn't you tell me? I've got it! I'm here to ask you because I want to know what kind of person he is, and you don't know, so forget it! After Honghong finished speaking, she turned around and walked out.

The second aunt stopped breathing at this moment, and she seemed to have figured out what was happening. She immediately rushed up and grabbed her daughter's arm: "Child! Where are you going? ”

"Back to school!"

"Why? No, no, you can't go and talk nonsense! ”

"How?" Honghong was a little surprised. Her mother's voice quieted down: "Why, you didn't hurt you so much!" ”

"Da, I don't want to be a traitor," Honghong said with a painful frown full of hatred.

Now Honghong is in school, she has received several years of revolutionary education, combat training, and her good friends and classmates have infected her, and Honghong's heart has become strong.

Now, when she found out about Zhu Xinzhai's behavior, the first thing she thought of was not that the person concerned was her father, but that her resentment against the devil completely angered her and controlled her. But as soon as the words came out, looking at the emaciated shadow of the mother standing in front of him, he couldn't help but feel a cold snap all over his body. It was as if it was only then that she heard her beloved mother mention this that she had not thought about the consequences of this incident for her family. She began to sympathize with her mother. Then she took her mother's hand and comforted her, saying:

"Mom, don't you understand that being a traitor is the worst? How many people have been killed and injured by traitors and devils, let's just say how badly our people here have been harmed by devils, haven't you also seen it with your own eyes? Mom, don't worry, who is he and how big the crime is, *** The Eighth Route Army and the Kuomintang will handle it fairly, Mom, don't be afraid, I'll report it. ……

The second aunt listened to her daughter's words too much, like a knife stabbing her body, and her heart was about to break! Poor child, how do she know what her mother is like! The mother knew that she could not stop her daughter's action with this reason, and she suddenly looked at her daughter and felt that Hong'er was a stranger; It seems that the child she gave birth to was beaten with iron, and she didn't understand her own mother's hard work. But after all, she is a mother, the child was born to her, she raised it, and she is still afraid of her own child as a mother!

The second aunt suddenly became tough. She took a step forward, tugged at her daughter's sleeve, and said in a tone that could not be disobeyed: "Honghong, do you still want your mother!?" ”

"Mom, don't do that! The Eighth Route Army will never involve good people, one person does things and one person does it, mother...... What if you are a traitor? ”

"Ahh You? "The second aunt didn't believe her ears too much.

"Yes, I ......" The second aunt was too demented and stunned, looking straight at her mother, who gradually revealed the outline of her whole body as the dawn penetrated through the window. Then, her eyebrows gathered at the same time, and the peaks of her eyebrows touched together. Her lips trembled, her teeth clenched, and her left hand trembled to her chest, tearing at her clothes tightly. Her heart was like a pack of steel needles clogged up, and her eyes were beginning to blur.

"Child, ah......" The second aunt didn't expect that this news would make her daughter demented there. Great grief came to her whole body. She grabbed her daughter and cried bitterly. She suddenly realized that her daughter was also crying, the child's tears and her own tears flowed together, she no longer had the strength to control herself, she forgot everything!

At this time, the second aunt's brain was blank, and her body was paralyzed weakly. Finally, he knelt on the ground with weak knees, hugged his daughter's calves tightly with both arms, and cried bitterly: "Child! Your mother is guilty! Mom, I'm sorry for you...... I should have cut it with a thousand cuts. ”

The second aunt broke off while crying and told her daughter the cause and effect of the incident.

At this moment, the girl's mood was changing rapidly. At the beginning, she hatefully misinterpreted the underground behavior of her mother and Platoon Commander Wang, but now she doesn't forgive them for being a dog leg for Zhu Xinzhai and helping Zhu Xinzhai do bad things in order to keep their fornication.

Then, Honghong pitied her mother and Platoon Leader Wang, sympathized with their misfortunes, and lived an inhuman life in the dark for so many years. And later, she overthrew her sympathy, and there was no mercy at all.

Although they are her biological parents, the two have a relationship to have their own lives. However, the girl thought it was an improper relationship, a depravity, and a disgrace. However, at the time when Honghong compared the sins of her mother and Platoon Leader Wang with the sins of Zhu Xinzhai, she completely attributed her hatred for her mother to Zhu Xinzhai. In this way, she even felt that her mother and Platoon Commander Wang were reasonable and normal.

Honghong's heart changed back and forth, painful, and he couldn't calm down. She looked down and saw that her mother was still holding her legs and crying, and her trouser legs were wet with tears. She immediately lifted her mother up, and her own tears fell. She sobbed and said, "Mom, listen to me......"

"Son, go tell the story! Your mother is willing to die with that bad thing that is not human, I can't live such a life, child, I am for you, and the poor little king......"

"Mom, you're right, I'm going to expose it! Mom, we can't ignore our conscience and turn ourselves in if we are guilty. You were forced to go to Liangshan by Zhu Xinzhai, I think they can still do some tricks with the little devils. Honghong knelt and pulled her loose hair, turned to leave, but was pulled by her mother again.

"Son, you say," said the mother, with deep shame and anguish, "don't you remember your mother's words? Do you think Xiao Wang is your biggest? ”

Honghong's heart tingled. She glanced at the poor unfortunate mother, answered nothing, and went out!

The East lit up.

The industrious peasants have already gotten up to sort out their farm tools and are ready to go up the mountain and down the field. The busy women day and night, blinking slightly red eyes and yawning sleepily, began to pick up the pot and make food.

In just a few moments, blue smoke rose from the chimney, mixed with the gray mist, like a veil covering the awakened mountain village. The small clouds on the top of the west mountain, when people could not see the rising sun, they were baked bright red by the morning glow, like wisps of white jade.

As soon as Honghong came out of the second door, she ran into Zhu Xinzhai head-on. Zhu Xinzhai's appearance was not accidental, when he finished sending the telegram and holding a small meeting with his subordinates, he walked to the window of the second aunt, wanting to listen to the movement inside, and the crying inside sucked him, and then he broke out in a cold sweat......
