Volume 1: The Source of Life Chapter 2: Mulberry Elm

Watching the sun gradually set to the west, Meng Yanxuan's heart became more and more anxious.

"Didn't Jingtai raise that child and send it to the research institute? How's it going? ”

Grandma Meng didn't realize who Jingtai's child was for a while, and was dull for a while before replying: "Oh, you said Jing Zhan, I heard that it's not very good." ”

Grandma Meng's not very good words are very tactful, that child is recognized by everyone as a disaster, and the base sent someone to pick him up twice, but he escaped. I heard that he has a particularly bad temper and is naturally bloodthirsty.

Other people's children are bear children at most, but this kind of child is as ferocious as jackals, tigers and leopards.

This child was born with an extra eye in the center of his eyebrows.

The family secretly hid it from the outside, fearing that they would be taken away by the base, and raised until they were three years old, the cattle farm outside the town mutated, and almost half of the people in the whole town died, only to know that there was such a child in his family.

When the base sent someone to pick him up, he was carried by his parents and ran out of the 12th district.

The poor couple escaped their lives in the town and went out of the 12th district, but they met a group of mutated wild dogs, and both husband and wife died.

The child's life was big, and he was picked up and hidden by Jingtai of the Self-Defense Forces. I heard that Jingtai's 11th district has also fallen recently, and the second time the base sent people, the kid ran away again.

Now people call him the Little Scourge.

I haven't seen anyone in the past two years, and I don't know where I went, and I'm still alive!

Meng Tingxuan also knew about this matter, he just wanted to use this child to remind his parents. If a child like his daughter can't be raised, sooner or later it will hurt the family.

Grandma Meng didn't know what to say, she also knew that her granddaughter was the best to go to the base, and she could get a lot of points. can think of such a young child sent to the base and being drawn blood for experiments, and there is a faint pain in my heart.

Blood draws are just heard, and who knows if there is anything more terrible.

"Mom, why don't you raise it for a few days. No, no, send it to the institute. ”

Meng Tingxuan's words were a little difficult, he didn't want to raise this child at all. Even if he doesn't want this child, he is still a person with both children.

Thinking of Gina, who was still lying in the hospital in the city, he became more and more irritable. On the same day that this child was born, Gina also gave birth to a daughter, which was a normal child.

Now that he is here, he can't take care of their mother and son, not to mention, and he may be deducted from the risk of high points because he keeps this child.

The base will not force your child to be delivered, but if you know that your child is different from a normal child, you will not take precautions. If anything goes wrong, he will have to deduct base points according to the plot.

For him, this child is not a precious girl, but a burden. It's because of her that he and Gina can't get the certificate until now, and if his beloved has a normal household registration, he will have one more line of words "illegitimate child" than other children.

It was the last thing he and Gina wanted to see.

Grandpa Meng happened to come over and was about to take Huzi out for a walk, and when he heard this, he couldn't help but glare: "What kind of nonsense are you talking about, if you can't do it, send it away, where to send it, send it to the base?" Such a young child, you are reluctant to give up us. If you don't want to raise it, just say it, Lao Tzu didn't expect you to raise it. ”

The old man has been in the self-defense army for more than 20 years, and he has a straight temper and a strong personality.

"Dad, for a child like her, sending it to the base is the best choice."

Grandpa Meng was already in his early sixties, but he was very energetic, and he raised his palm to slap Meng Yanxuan. looked at his son, who was taller than himself, gritted his teeth and put down his hand hatefully: "Fart, you don't know that bit of bullshit." , don't be an eyesore at home, I'll be upset when I see you. ”

Meng Yanxuan wanted to leave, but he hesitated for a while but decided to listen to Gina's words, and got the certificate for his beloved. In this way, the beloved hukou is no longer an illegitimate child, just like a normal child.

He had to talk to his parents about it, even if he knew they wouldn't agree.

"Gina and I will go to get the certificate tomorrow, and I'll talk to you."

"What did you say?"

Lao Meng and Grandma Meng looked at their son in shock, his daughter-in-law had just been buried, he was going to get the certificate with the woman, no matter how shameless a person was, his wife had just died on the front foot, and he would get the certificate with his lover on the back foot.

Meng Yanxuan said confidently: "Gina also gave birth yesterday and gave birth to a daughter. If we don't get a certificate, our beloved will write that the child was born out of wedlock. Beloved is also your granddaughter, are you willing to spoil her like this? ”

"Meng Yanxuan, you get out of here."

Lao Meng was furious, pointed to the courtyard gate and shouted: "Why did I give birth to such a beast as you, you are still not human?" ”

Meng Yanxuan, who turned around to leave, was grabbed by Grandma Meng, and Meng Qinghu shook his grandmother's hand and "kicked" upstairs.

He's going to tell his sister that his father is going to marry his stepmother.

When Meng Tingxuan left, Grandpa Meng was taking Meng Qinghu's hand and walking up the mountain. Watching his son's car go away, leaving only billowing smoke and dust, the old man couldn't help sighing.

It's his fault, his son was born and he was in the Self-Defense Forces, and the day is precarious. My wife is also soft and spoiled, and he is so self-willed today, which is the result of his failure to educate well.

Meng Qinghu pulled his grandfather's sleeve: "Grandpa, what's my sister's name?" ”

He remembered that his father said that the sisters born to his stepmother in the city all had names, and Meng loved him, but his sister didn't have a name yet.

Grandpa Meng squatted down and slapped the dirt on his grandson's body that had just been stained in the ground: "Shall we choose a name for my sister?" ”

"Okay."

Meng Qinghu looked around, the mountains were a little bare, the trees were sparse, and he couldn't even see a beautiful flower. He wanted to give his sister a nice name, at least better than Meng Xinai, and he had a headache when he thought about it.

Soon, his attention was drawn to the few remaining trees on the hillside, and his little finger pointed to a crooked-necked tree not far away: "Grandpa, this is a mulberry tree." ”

"Yes, it's a mulberry tree."

"Grandpa, that's an elm tree."

"Yes, that's an elm tree, and the fruit of the mulberry tree can be eaten, and the seeds of the elm tree can be eaten."

Grandpa Meng reached out and picked a mulberry leaf and put it in his mouth to chew, and a dry and fragrant smell poured into his throat. Many trees have long since disappeared, and the more these flowers and trees are not valued by others, the more tenacious they are to survive.

"Mulberry trees, elm trees, small flowers, small grasses......"

Meng Qinghu wanted to say a nice name, but he thought about it for a long time, and he didn't think that which name was more suitable for the little sister at home.

Grandpa Meng said: "Huzi, my sister is called Sangyu, Meng Sangyu." ”

Mo Dao Sangyu night for the sun is still full of sky.

Although he is old, he believes that he will definitely be able to build a warm home for Huzi and Sangyu. His grandchildren, worth everything he has for them.

"Okay."

Meng Qinghu naturally didn't understand this, he just thought that it was very nice to be called Sang Yu, and he liked to listen to it.

……

"Mulberry ......"

In the town of the eighth arrondissement, Jolina climbed the hill out of breath.

She is the child of the Qiao family in the town, the Qiao family has been in the Self-Defense Forces for generations, and Qiao Lina's grandfather and father are skilled craftsmen. The Qiao family is the richest family in the eighth district, and there are many league points, and Qiao Lina is naturally the most beautiful child in the whole town.

Meng Sangyu raised his head with a small bamboo basket: "Sister Qiao, why are you here?" ”

"Hmph, if I don't come, you won't go to the town to find me."

Qiao Lina sat beside Sang Yu, took out a lollipop from the small bag behind her back and handed it to Sang Yu: "Here you go, chocolate-flavored." ”

"Thank you, Sister Joe"

Sang Yu happily took it, opened the package and licked it gently, what a strange taste, some bitter, and some mellow, is this the taste of chocolate?

After Sang Yu was born, Lao Meng used Sang Yu's frail morning as an excuse to lock Sang Yu at home and never let her appear in the town.

In order for his granddaughter to have a free habitat, he also accelerated the defense construction of the back mountain. The points he earned in the Self-Defense Forces were almost all used to create a homeland in the back mountains.

In recent years, the town has often been frequented by mutant animals, but fortunately, there are not many of these animals and they are easy to deal with. Occasionally, falling meteorites landed near the town, and because the meteorites were not large, they did not cause any substantial damage.

Everything is still beautiful, Meng Qinghu and his little sister Sang Yu grew up together.

In the past, Qiao Lina liked to play behind Meng Qinghu the most. Since she had Sangyu, she rarely saw Meng Qinghu. It wasn't until this year that Sang Yu was allowed to go out by Grandpa Meng, and Qiao Lina liked this beautiful and well-behaved little sister very much when she saw Sang Yu for the first time.

Sang Yu inherited all the good genes of his parents, beautiful and smart. She is quiet and well-behaved, does not like to talk, and especially loves to read. The points that grandpa has earned in the past few years, in addition to exchanging seeds with the base, is to exchange readings for Sang Yu.

Her behavior is different from that of a normal child, giving her a seed, a weed, and she can squat in front of a plant for days and months, watching them take root and sprout, slowly stretch their leaves, and slowly mature and wither.

Such a mulberry is more like a fool in the eyes of others.

Meng Qinghu thinks that her sister is very beautiful and smart, she just doesn't like to talk, she just prefers flowers, trees and small animals. In Meng Qinghu's heart, his sister is a little angel, a little angel without wings.

And Sang Yu's pair of kitten ears at birth can finally be quietly hidden like a normal child.

It wasn't until Sang Yu was able to hide her ears that were different from others that Lao Meng brought Sang Yu out to meet everyone, but there were few such opportunities, and Sang Yu's real paradise was in the back mountain.

Qiao Lina licked the lollipop and asked, "Sangyu, do you know?" I heard that there are wild people in the back mountain, do you want to move back to the town to live? ”

"What savages?"

"I don't know, it's probably the kind in the storybook, there are a lot of them, hair, the kind of wild people who can beat people and eat raw meat."

The two little girls immediately appeared in front of their eyes with a long-haired gorilla, they had never seen a gorilla, which did not prevent them from imagining it out of thin air.

After all, there were animals and plants that have disappeared again and are all available in encyclopedias.

"Where's your brother?"

Sang Yu pointed to the cave: "My brother and grandfather are growing vegetables. ”

"Then let's go to Brother Huzi, and I'll give him a chocolate-flavored lollipop."

"Okay."

Sang Yu and Jolina held hands and jumped into the cave.

Grandpa Meng and Meng Qinghu were not in the cave, they went down the spiral staircase of the cave to the back mountain. Grandpa Meng planted a test field in the back mountain, and he wanted to see if the test field was pecked by birds.

Grandpa walked towards the back mountain, Meng Qinghu followed, and Da Hei chased a butterfly from the hillside to a bush.

A dog barked, with a man's cry.

"Who?"

Grandpa Meng lifted the bow and arrow in his hand and walked towards the bushes.
