CHAPTER XVI. 4
The "busy boycott" in Bailu Village exuded a strong atmosphere of pathos. On the third day of the seventh lunar month, Ma Zihong's opera troupe sounded the gongs and drums on the second night of the first month, and Bai Xiaowentong presided over this extraordinary performance from front to back, and was busy running around. Lu Zilin sat in the front corner of the stage, leaning sideways to face the audience, and the circle of white filial piety cloth on his head showed pathos and toughness to the men and women gathered in the audience from ten miles and eight villages. After the noon scene of the third year of junior high school, Bai Jiaxuan came to the stage and set off a commotion. Bai Jiaxuan refused to listen to the persuasion of anyone in the family to come to the theater, obviously not because he was addicted to the theater, but because he wanted to show it on the occasion where the villagers gathered. Xiaowen used a wheelwheel to call a grasshopper cart to push his father into the theater, and a futon woven of wheat straw was padded under his buttocks. Men and women chased the car, wanting to see the respected patriarch who had escaped from the robbery, and everyone who knew and didn't know threw his most sincere greetings: "How is Mr. Bai?" Bai Jiaxuan sat calmly on the futon, his hands on the wooden lattice at the front of the car, his face was peaceful and kind, and his eyes were full of strong brilliance. He didn't answer the enthusiastic greetings chasing him, and sat upright and was pushed under the stage by Xiaowen, completely wanting to have a good time in the play. The very act of him sitting under the stage to watch the play has fully demonstrated his presence and his temperament, and there is no need for any pretension in his face and speech. Bai Jiaxuan saw Tian Fuxian walking up to the theater and sitting next to Lu Zilin, and said a few words to Lu Zilin, and the two walked to the stage together and stretched out their hands to him, inviting him to take a seat on the theater. Bai Jiaxuan said: "You can only watch the play by sitting under the stage to watch it well!"
Bai Jiaxuan wore a thin pigtailed straw hat and entered the plot. Ma Zihong learned that Bai Jiaxuan was going to come to see the play at noon, and intended to change the original arrangement to star in "Golden Beach", which pushed the sad atmosphere of Bailu Village to **. Bai Jiaxuan especially likes Yang Jiajiang's plays, and the pain of his back injury and bedsores has also been alleviated. The corner of his eyes swept to Lu Zilin's actions on the corner of the stage, and Lu Zilin was introducing a soldier in uniform to Tian Fuxian. The soldier smiled modestly and stretched out his right hand, and Tian Fuxian also stretched out his right hand. The farmer under the stage was attracted by the novel handshake and whispered about the soldier with a ruddy face and extraordinary equipment. Bai Jiaxuan finally caught a familiar name from the noisy whispering: Lu Zhaohai. He couldn't help but feel a shock in his heart. Tian Fuxian walked to the front of the stage during the actor's backstage cutscene: "Folks, this is Lu Zhaohai, the second son of Lu Xiangyue, who has just graduated from the Baoding Army School and is a platoon commander in the National Revolutionary Army. This is the first national revolutionary soldier on our Bailu Plain. Lu Zhaohai stood up and raised his hand to salute, and then bent down and bowed three times. This is a real soldier, the first soldier to leave a new impression in the eyes and hearts of the villagers of Bailuyuan. The white-legged crow soldiers are tantamount to bandits, and the members of the White Deer Cang security team look more like a group of clumsy croppers. Lu Zhaohai's neat and tidy demeanor, ruddy face, white teeth, and especially modest demeanor and politeness, clearly drew the line between soldiers and bandits.
This soldier who stood on the theater floor saluted and bowed to his fathers and fellow villagers, and his humble smile concealed the pain that was difficult to solve, and his marriage and love with Bai Ling had an unexpected fission. Lu Zhaohai walked into the leather shop and smelled the smell of familiar and friendly fur. His arrival stunned the cobblers. He smiled shyly and gave the Jingjin pastry he was holding to Bai Ling's second aunt and second brother-in-law, and waited until it was time to close the door and go to bed, and then Bai Ling walked in the door. The shop workshop of the narrow bus could not provide a place where they could pour out their warm thoughts, so the two of them said goodbye to the cobbler couple and went out, and just turned the corner to avoid the perspective of the cobbler couple standing on the steps, Lu Zhaohai grabbed Bai Ling's hand tightly and suddenly took her to his chest. Bai Ling lay in his arms and involuntarily groaned: "Brother Zhaohai! People want to die when they think of you......"
Zhao Hai and Bai Ling walked through the crisscrossing alleys and alleys, stopping in an open field, and both of them couldn't help but fall into the memories dumbfounded. This is where they tossed copper dollars. Bai Ling took Zhaohai's hand, motioned for him to sit down on the brick flower bed, and said close to the root of his ear, "Brother Zhaohai, I'm just like you." Zhaohai asked casually, "Why are you the same as me?" Bai Ling whispered: "I'm also in**, just like you." Zhaohai couldn't help but be stunned with an "ah" sound, and suddenly grabbed Bai Ling's arms: "I have quit the ** and joined the Kuomintang...... Why are you going to make a comeback with me?" Bai Ling was stunned when he heard this, unable to speak. The two long-missed lovers soon came to their senses, and they fell into a strong argument, neither of whom could convince the other for a while, and each lowered his head and pressed his hands to look at the ground under his feet. A copper coin rattled and turned around on the ground and stopped, and the two of them grinned and squatted down to guess the riddle. Now recalling that hazy moonlit night is no longer easy, joyful and painful. "Is that good? If you think about it, we'll see you here the night after tomorrow. Zhaohai said. This proposal was echoed by Bai Ling: "Brother Zhaohai, you should also think about it, I look forward to seeing you the night after tomorrow...... Can I get what I want......" Bai Ling was already choking in his throat, and suddenly hugged Zhaohai and said, "I'm waiting for your good news, Brother Zhaohai......"
Lu Zhaohai came to the empty garden in the street and alley where they threw the copper dollar at the agreed time, and did not wait for Bai Ling but waited for his brother Zhaopeng. The ** criminal who was rewarded for the arrest was dressed as a businessman, trembling silk clothes and silk pants, shaking a folding fan gracefully, raised his eyebrows and lips when he walked up to his younger brother, made a hint not to be surprised, and affectionately climbed his brother's shoulder and left: "Let's go, don't wait." She can't come, so I came. Zhaohai said unhappily: "Why didn't she come when she said yes?" As soon as I entered the **, I had to make a mistake of not keeping my promise!" Zhaopeng said: "You just got a Kuomintang card and you became arrogant? Tell you that she didn't come because she was worried that you wouldn't change. She said that she came, and if neither of them changed, how would it end? She cherishes her relationship with you and doesn't come. She wants me to persuade you to see you again in the hope that it will be a happy ending for all. Good brother, what do you have to say to my brother!" Zhao Hai sighed bitterly: "It's over." Call it a day. Zhaopeng said, "Brother, it's not over. In my opinion, everything has not yet begun, how can it be over? You're too pessimistic!" Zhaohai said: "I can't change it. I was counting on her to change. She entrusts you to come, and it proves that she will not change. If she changes, you don't have to come to me, you must be her leader, right?" Zhaopeng said: "You two are counting on each other to change, you can sit down and have a good talk, talk calmly, don't force each other to change your beliefs as soon as you meet." It doesn't matter if you can't talk about it for the time being, it's okay to wait for three or two years, because in three or two years, everyone has seen more, and their ability to judge and understand right and wrong has also improved, and maybe there will be changes. Zhaohai said, "Okay then! You tell her that I want to go back to the countryside to see my parents the day after tomorrow, and I can only stay for one day. When they returned, the troops were about to be deployed. Zhaopeng said: "Bai Ling must see you, let me make an appointment with you." Since you're going back to the day after tomorrow, you'll meet tomorrow, right? Where do you think it's more convenient?" Zhaohai said: "Forget it, it's gone." Since no one can change anyone, there is no good result when you see it, but it makes people uncomfortable. You tell her, I wait for her words. ”
Zhao Hai returned to the city from the original visit, changed his plan to meet Bai Ling again, and found the cobbler's shop again that night. Bai Ling thought that Zhaohai had a turnaround and was overjoyed, and immediately walked out of the second aunt's shop with Zhaohai, and the two of them went to the garden where the copper yuan was thrown. Bai Ling said emotionally: "I thought I would never see you again!" Brother Zhaohai, you are too stubborn, you can't talk about it once and you don't even see each other twice? It's really a bit of a common problem of the Kuomintang turning its face and not recognizing people!" Zhaohai became angry: "Forget it, Bai Ling!" I won't talk about things from afar, you can go back to our plains and take a look!**What kind of revolution has been carried out in the plains, you can go and see what kind of revolution has been carried out in the plains! Zhaopeng uses the next pole, you can inquire about it! Luhei Wahe, the boss of He, Bai Xing'er, Tian Xiao'e and others are all a bunch of dead cats and dogs, can these people complete the national revolution? Do they understand what revolution means? They took advantage of the trend of the revolution to become chaotic, at best, it was just a blind movement of the hungry people in the famine years and disasters to 'eat big households'......" Bai Ling's wisp of warmth suddenly fell silent, and a burst of anger flickered, her strong temperament quickly recovered, and she reacted quickly: "Brother Zhaohai, I haven't seen you for more than a year, you have grown a body, knowledge, and a lot of aristocratic tone!" Zhaohai said: "It is not too much for you to judge me as an aristocrat with Lenin's theory. Lenin incited the poor to bring down the rich and eliminate the rich, with the result that the rich were eliminated and the poor were still poor. Zhao Peng learned from Soviet Russia to incite the poor man to defeat Caidong on the White Deer Plain, and the result? The dignified director of the agricultural cooperative, Lu Heiwa, degenerated into a bandit, led the bandits to rob the silver dollar, and slashed my grandfather with a knife and smashed Uncle Jiaxuan's waist pole...... The goal that was not achieved as the director of the agricultural cooperative, but it was easily achieved when he became a bandit. Do you tell me to believe that I can still re-enter**? The black babies can't do the revolution of the **, they can be bandits, I can't do it!" Bai Ling said, "Have you heard how Boss He died?" Have you ever heard of the torture of jumping people from a high altitude?** It is necessary to mobilize the oppressed to overthrow the oppressor and build a free and equal world without exploitation and oppression. Zhaohai said, "Let's see!" Let's see whose doctrine really saves China. The two parted unhappily. The sharp confrontation of ideas has alleviated the emotional attachment between him and her, and the breakup is far less heavy than the first time.
Lu Zhaohai took a few steps and stopped, turned around, and saw Bai Ling also standing there. He walked over to her and said, "I'm going to pull it out tomorrow...... and she couldn't help but roll down her tears: "Brother Zhaohai...... I'm still waiting for you to come back......"
