Chapter 203: More tacit understanding
Just now Chen Zihan and Huang Xiaojuan talked, Lu Ruorong heard it.
She was a little embarrassed, she couldn't imagine that Chen Zihan's mother was so sensitive, and she could detect it like this.
Hearing Chen Zihan ask her again, she hesitated for a moment, but still agreed.
Chen Zihan glanced at Lu Ruorong twice in surprise, and still handed her the phone.
"Hello Auntie, my name is Lu Ruorong, and I am Zihan's classmate." Lu Ruorong greeted Huang Xiaojuan generously.
Huang Xiaojuan is actually not completely sure, it was a female classmate who went to Jinling with Chen Zihan to play.
She was just scaring Chen Zihan.
Unexpectedly, Chen Zihan was really a female classmate next to him.
"Hello classmate Lu, thank you for being by Zihan's side!" Huang Xiaojuan's reaction was still very fast, and after being stunned for a moment, she immediately replied: "We will arrive in Jinling in the afternoon, and we will have dinner together then." This stinky boy, taking a female classmate out to play, is still causing trouble outside, and I'll see how I clean him up later. ”
Lu Ruorong couldn't laugh or cry a little, but still replied politely: "Auntie, although Zihan was a little impulsive when he fought with people, he didn't do anything wrong. He's fine now, don't worry. I have class tomorrow so I have to go back this afternoon. Next time I have a chance, I will meet you again and accompany you to eat and chat, okay? ”
"Alas, why are you in such a hurry!" Huang Xiaojuan was still unwilling, and asked Lu Ruorong to take two more days off and meet with them for a meal.
In the end, Chen Zihan couldn't listen to it, and snatched the mobile phone back from Lu Ruorong's hand, so that Huang Xiaojuan would not be so strong.
Subsequently, he also took the initiative to hang up the phone because the signal was not good.
After hanging up the phone, Chen Zihan and Lu Ruorong were a little embarrassed.
"I didn't tell my mom about you." Chen Zihan spread his hands and said innocently: "When he called to ask yesterday, I just said that he came out to play with a classmate. ”
After a pause, he immediately said suspiciously: "Could it be that Wang Zhenjun said it?" Or Yang Xiaodong? ”
Chen Zihan took Lu Ruorong out to play, and only Yang Xiaodong and Wang Zhenjun knew.
The two of them shouldn't be yelling about this everywhere.
But if Huang Xiaojuan called Wang Zhenjun to ask him, Wang Zhenjun probably wouldn't be able to hide it.
"Forget it, don't worry about that." Lu Ruorong grabbed Chen Zihan's arm, tilted his head and asked him, "Then do you want me to see your parents?" ”
"I'm afraid you'll be embarrassed!" Chen Zihan replied honestly: "And I also think that now is not the time for them to see you." ”
Lu Ruorong lowered his head and pondered for a while, and then asked Chen Zihan: "What time will they arrive in Jinling?" ”
"About half-past three."
"My car is four o'clock in the afternoon." Lu Ruorong smiled, "Otherwise, I'll see them at the station!"
Chen Zihan said vaguely: "Let's see then, maybe their car is late, then they will definitely not be seen." ”
Around 2001, train delays, like later plane delays, were a high probability event.
Especially on long-distance trains, it is common to be a few hours late.
Seeing Chen Zihan say this, Lu Ruorong didn't say anything anymore.
However, she still prepared for the meeting with Chen Zihan's parents.
After eating lunch, she took Chen Zihan and went to a nearby store to buy two gifts, which she gave to Chen Yingrong and Huang Xiaojuan when they were ready to meet.
Lu Ruorong's tutor is very good, and she also understands these things in terms of romance and sophistication.
Seeing that Lu Ruorong was preparing to meet his parents, Chen Zihan couldn't cry or laugh a little.
Lu Ruorong's personality, Chen Zihan has already roughly figured it out.
This is a very intellectual and intelligent girl, very independent, but usually not inconspicuous, giving people a gentle and gentle feeling.
But her true character is the way she behaved when she took him to the hospital for an examination, stubborn and not swayed.
What she believes in, it is difficult for others to change.
Luo Xiaofei and Zhao Xiaoan's personalities are also very individual.
Thinking of this, Chen Zihan had a little headache.
Trying to balance these girls, he felt a bit like he was killing himself.
After lunch, the two went to the presidential palace for an hour.
Chen Zihan originally wanted to take Lu Ruorong to see the Memorial Hall of the Massacre Victims, but found that there was not enough time and was ready to cancel the trip.
"Let's go for a walk!" Lu Ruorong looked at his watch, and said softly to Chen Zihan: "Let's go to the door and remember the victims." ”
After Chen Zihan thought about it, he agreed.
When the two took a taxi to the Memorial Hall of the Massacre, it was already two o'clock in the afternoon.
At the current memorial hall, you have to buy a ticket to enter the exhibition.
After 2004-03-01, admission is free.
This made Chen Zihan a little speechless.
Anyway, they didn't have time to go in and visit, so they stayed outside for a while.
Today's weather is not very good, a bit gloomy.
This kind of weather, visiting the memorial hall can mobilize people's emotions even more.
Standing at the door of the memorial hall, looking at everything around them, Chen Zihan and Lu Ruorong were silent.
The numbers 1937.12.13 and 300,000 on the stele pierced people's nerves so strongly.
No one can imagine what the people living in Jinling City experienced in that winter more than 60 years ago.
Countless people have died unexpectedly.
For the survivors, it was also a dark day that could not be looked back on.
Chen Zihan told Lu Ruorong in a hoarse voice:
In December 1937, after the fall of Jinling, an average of one Chinese died every 12 seconds under the butcher's knife of the invaders.
What is the concept of 300,000 victims?
It has been estimated that if all the victims of the massacre stood hand in hand, the procession would stretch 320 kilometers from Jinling to Qiantang.
The total weight of their blood amounted to 1,200 tons, and the corpses could fill 2,500 train cars!
"'300,000 victims', this is by no means a cold number, but a historical tragedy composed of fresh lives, so specific and painful." After saying this, Chen Zihan bowed respectfully in the direction of the monument, and then silently closed his eyes in the direction of the memorial hall.
Lu Ruorong, like him, expressed his remembrance of the victims in his own way.
Subsequently, the two also went to the neighborhood to buy a bouquet of chrysanthemums and respectfully placed them in front of the monument.
"These humiliations, the brittle annals of history can't bear it, and some blood and tears can't be washed away no matter how long the years are!" When he was about to leave, Chen Zihan said to Lu Ruorong with a solemn face: "We must remember that history, and all of us should also remember this history. ”
Lu Ruorong nodded seriously, she was impressed by Chen Zihan's solemnity and his enthusiasm.
She replied softly: "We will not forget this history. We will not give in, because we are Chinese, because we are already strong!"
Chen Zihan didn't speak again, just held Lu Ruorong's hand tightly.
He believes that in these things related to history, the only person who can connect with him is the girl in front of him.
