Chapter 1966: The Return of Relatives in a Suspicious Dream (Part II)
Tang Qiuli arrived at the door of the bedroom with a trace of doubt, stuck it on the door and listened carefully, but there was no movement at all, "Bang bang!" He knocked softly on the door.
As soon as the bedroom door opened, Mei Xue stood in front of the door, Liu Xinlan hung her head, sat on the bed, saw him come in, looked up at him, in her eyes, there was indescribable confusion and loss, Tang Qiuli's heart "chuckled", and looked at Mei Xue inquiringly.
A trace of helplessness flashed in Mei Xue's eyes, and Nunu said: "Qiuli, you accompany Xinlan to talk, the guests are here, I'll go out to say hello!" As he spoke, his eyes kept looking, but Tang Qiuli became even more confused.
Mei Xue went out, gently closed the door, leaned against the door, looked up with a fair face, calmed down the turbulent feelings, sighed secretly in her heart, she had already asked Liu Xinlan, and knew what was the reason for Liu Xinlan to be so dazed and lost, however, for this matter, Mei Xue was powerless, helpless, and became the shadow of another woman in the heart of a man who loves deeply, is it sad or lucky?
If this happened to herself, to be honest, Mei Xue didn't know how to face it, therefore, in the face of Liu Xinlan's pain, Mei Xue couldn't find anything to persuade, all the words seemed so pale and powerless, this is a heart knot, only Liu Xinlan herself, the bell still needs to be tied to the bell, or Tang Qiuli can be untied, and it depends on the chance, maybe, a word, a look, can be unraveled, maybe, a pimple in the heart for a lifetime, and the bell needs to be tied.
Suddenly, Mei Xue had doubts about her husband's decision to take Liu Xinlan back to Dingbian for the New Year, if Xinlan didn't return to Dingbian, something unexpected would not happen, hey, who would have expected it?
Mei Xue tucked her long black hair. Tidy up the military uniform, put on a quiet smiling face, and walked to the living room, the husband was comforting an injured girl, as a wife, he should go out to support the scene, this is the responsibility and the truth of life.
Tang Qiuli gently picked up Liu Xinlan's delicate flower-like face, looked at her autumn-like bright eyes, and the blankness in her eyes, and asked softly, "Sue me." Xinlan, what's going on? β
Liu Xinlan seemed to be about to break free from his warm big hand, and seemed to be reluctant to struggle, smiled, and replied softly: "It's nothing." It's just that when I see so many people in my family, I'm not used to it. And. When I saw the two old men and thought of my parents, I felt a little uncomfortable, and I would be fine after a while! After speaking, he lowered his eyes, and his long eyelashes trembled. It shows her inner unpeace.
Of course, Tang Qiuli didn't believe such a reason, in his understanding, Liu Xinlan was not such a girl, and she had lived in a military school for more than two years. After experiencing the baptism of war again, Liu Xinlan, who is weak on the outside and gentle as water, has become very strong on the inside, a typical soft on the outside and strong on the inside, there must be something that stimulated her.
hugged Liu Xinlan's round shoulders and hugged her in her arms, "Xinlan, if there is anything, don't hold it in your heart, say it, I will share it with you!" He said.
Liu Xinlan was like an injured bird, nestled in Tang Qiuli's arms, motionless, for a long time, before she said faintly: "Qiuli, it's really nothing, I just feel a little bitter in my heart, don't think too much, there are still many guests outside, can't be rude, let's go out in a while, don't let the villagers laugh, if you have a woman, forget the villagers," After speaking, he smiled lightly, like a lotus flower blooming in an instant, indescribably delicate, and people couldn't help but feel pity.
This smile was seen in Tang Qiuli's eyes, but it made him feel a sharp pain in his heart, knowing that Liu Xinlan was not telling the truth, and was about to persistently ask, in the direction of the living room, there was a wave of greetings, and another guest came, and he vaguely heard it, "I heard that Xiaoqiu is back, why don't you see anyone, where is it?" "Through a few doors, I couldn't really hear it, and I couldn't hear whose voice it was.
After a while, Mei Xue pushed the door in, glanced at Liu Xinlan, who was already calm, smiled slightly, and then said to Tang Qiuli: "Qiuli, the guests have all arrived, and they have already started to eat, and the next few are clamoring to see you, and Dad said, let you go out and toast the villagers!" β
Tang Qiuli said: "Yes, don't say it's a cup, I should serve the pot!" β
After thinking about it, he said to Liu Xinlan: "Xinlan, you are not feeling well, don't force it, just rest in the room, it's okay to have Mei Xue accompany me to toast!" β
Mei Xue nodded, moved by her husband's carefulness.
Liu Xinlan shook her head and said, "How can it be done!" You are the dignified chairman, don't make people laugh, find a fiancΓ©e who is a little family, has never seen the world, and dare not meet people, what, Master Shizao, do you think I can't do it? β
Liu Xinlan deliberately adjusted the atmosphere and said jokingly, she felt that it was very rude to make everyone feel uncomfortable because she was alone, in other words, it seemed rude and capricious, the ancients said, "Don't do things that are unpleasant to be a person and a seat!" β
Mei Xue didn't smile, but stepped forward, protected her shoulder, and said lovingly: "Xinlan, don't force yourself, Qiuli will understand!" She knew that this girl was bitter in her heart, and it would not be an exaggeration to say that she was forced to smile.
In all fairness, Mei Xue definitely doesn't want Liu Xinlan to appear on such an occasion again, the eyes of the villagers have too much meaning, I'm afraid that this girl will not be able to stand it if she is stimulated again.
Liu Xinlan said stubbornly: "Sister Xue, I'm fine, I've already shown up, they are all Qiuli's fellow villagers, if you don't go out, it's not good for Qiuli!" As he spoke, he took off his military hat, brushed his jet-black hair, and pulled his military uniform, and smiled.
Three people pushed open the door of the living room, a burst of laughter mixed with a strong aroma of wine, vegetables, rushing to the face, in the huge living room, set up more than 20 tables, the villagers are pushing the cup to change the lamp, drinking heartily, the nannies are like running water, the bowls of pork stewed sauerkraut, white meat and blood sausage, with the delicate dishes served on the table.
"Xiaoqiu, come here! Just now, your Uncle Zhang asked you! Tang Qiuli looked up and saw that it was Uncle Huang, the father of the mountain tiger, who was greeting him, and while agreeing, he asked Mei Xue in a low voice, "Did you call the mountain tiger?" β
Mei Xue whispered: "You still have to worry about it, I've already fought it, Mountain Tiger and Ouyang Lan, I'll be there soon!" β
"Let's go, Xue and Xinlan, let's toast Uncle Huang's table first!" Tang Qiuli said to the two.
Bypassing the noisy table, Tang Qiuli took Mei Xue and Liu Xinlan to the table in the corner of the living room, "Uncle Huang, Shanhu and Ouyang Lan will be here soon, Uncle Zhang, Auntie, your second elder is in good health!" Tang Qiuli greeted affectionately, and took a huge wine jug from Liu Xinlan's hand.
"Bell! Are you Ling'er? Where have you been all these years? Why do you say that you're coming back, but you miss your mother! Suddenly, Aunt Zhang's eyes were straight, her lips trembled, she stared at Liu Xinlan, shouted loudly, said, stretched out her thin hands tremblingly, and tried to caress Liu Xinlan's cheeks across the table.
The old man's body trembled like a dead leaf in the cold wind, if there was no table to rely on, he would fall to the ground, Uncle Zhang was no better, the hand holding the wine glass, shaking violently, most of the wine in the cup was spilled on his hand, but he didn't realize it, his lips trembled, and he couldn't say a word.
The house was quiet, and all the villagers stopped talking, watching this sudden scene with bated breath, Tang Qiuli's mother, in a corner, muttered, "The little devil has done evil!" What a good girl! Tears welled up in her eyes.
Liu Xinlan's face instantly turned pale and bloodless, and the suspicions in her heart were finally confirmed, these two old men who were in their last years were the parents of the most important girl in the eyes of Qiu Xuan, and they looked the same as her, so that her biological parents were mistaken, and I was really the shadow of another girl!
A string of Venus stars jumped in front of Liu Xinlan's eyes, shaking a few times, Mei Xue hurriedly helped her, and shouted eagerly: "Xinlan!" Xinlan! Be strong! β
Tang Qiuli's head exploded, and he completely understood why Liu Xinlan's feelings suddenly changed after seeing the villagers, all because the villagers regarded him as Xiaoling, and Uncle Zhang and the eldest mother also mistakenly thought that their daughter had not left, and suddenly came back, so that they lost their temper on the spot.
It is understandable that the two old men have always been reluctant to believe that Sister Ling has left, or rather, there is no one alive or dead, and there is always a trace of fantasy in their hearts, and they suddenly saw Liu Xinlan, who was exactly the same as their daughter, how could they not think that their daughter suddenly appeared in front of them, so that their feelings were out of control.
Since Xiaoling left, the bodies of the two old men collapsed very badly, plus their son, for the sake of a personal vendetta without a shadow, took revenge on Tang Qiuli, took refuge in the Japanese, was willing to be a traitor, lured the wolf into the house, destroyed the entire Tang family nest village, and finally, was hacked to death by the Japanese, the two old men lost a son and a daughter in a row, lonely, and seemed to have all the hope of life away from themselves.
Uncle Zhang and Auntie, who are not a few years older than his parents, have entered the old age in advance, and they are becoming more and more old, every time they see it, they make Tang Qiu leave for a long time, he is sad, and his feelings are low, which is also one of the reasons why he does not dare and does not want to return to Dingbian often, for fear of seeing the helpless eyes of the old man, he feels that it is the debt of his life and the regret of his life.
"Autumn Departure!" Only Mei Xue was quite calm and pulled Tang Qiuli, who was in a blank thinking.
His wife's call made Tang Qiuli sober up, looking at Liu Xinlan, who was pale and at a loss, and then at the trembling Uncle Zhang and Auntie, tears couldn't help but slide down his cheeks, and suddenly shouted in a loud voice: "Liu Xinlan, raise your head, you must face it!" Facing the two old people who miss their daughters and are in a trance, face it with me! β
