Chapter Forty-Nine: The Clothed Grave
In the evening, Men Shaoting drove over.
Sang Zhi was accompanying Su Lin to eat, originally Su Lin didn't want to eat, saying that she had no appetite, but was pulled down by Sang Zhi stiffly, "I haven't eaten or drunk for a whole day, and I have to eat some if I don't have an appetite, drink a bowl of porridge." ”
Guoguo ate very obediently with a bowl, silent, and only used his small spoon from time to time to scoop a little vegetable for Su Lin and put it in her bowl.
Four-year-old child, how well-behaved and sensible this is.
Su Lin couldn't hold back her tears and swallowed the meal with tears in her eyes.
Sang Zhi looked sad.
Seeing the door Shaoting come in, while being bored and playing alone with the tarot cards, he jumped up, "Boss." ”
Men Shaoting only nodded faintly, and turned his eyes to look at Sang Zhi.
Sang Zhi got up and walked over, and the face of the gatekeeper Shaoting was much better than before, maybe it was because he had rested enough. A man's physical strength is relatively easy to recover, and Men Shaoting is a soldier again, and he has an iron backbone, which will look refreshed, not to mention more energy.
"Rested?" Looking at Men Shaoting, Sang Zhi didn't know what to say for a while, every time she faced him, she was inexplicably nervous, and she was a little at a loss and incoherent when she was nervous.
"Hmm." He glanced at her deeply, nodded lightly, turned his head and shouted to the again, "." ”
"Here, the boss commands." The small body of the stood straight, and the mulberry branch couldn't help but want to laugh.
"Give you four hours, hurry up and rest, and be on duty here at night." Men Shaoting commanded in a faint tone, without a trace of emotion.
"Yes!" The don't ask the reason, anyway, they are used to obeying the boss's life.
Sister-in-law Zhang took the to the upstairs guest room, Su Lin also ate well, walked over with Guoguo, and pulled the corners of her mouth at the door Shaoting with a smile.
"I haven't thanked you for saving Guoguo, thank you."
After a few days of contact, this was the first time Su Lin had spoken to Men Shaoting like this, politely and politely.
Men Shaoting unconsciously flashed a trace of discomfort, nodded lightly, and did not speak.
Seeing that Men Shaoting and Sang Zhi still had something to say, Su Lin took Guoguo upstairs very interestingly, leaving enough private space for the two of them.
Looking at Men Shaoting, Sang Zhi was speechless for a while, not knowing what to say.
"When are we going home?" Men Shaoting looked at her fixedly, reached out and took her little hand and walked out.
"Where to go?" Sang Zhi raised his head and looked at Men Shaoting suspiciously.
"Going out for a walk, it's too stuffy in the house." Men Shaoting said lightly with an expressionless face.
Sang Zhi didn't speak, indeed, there was a heavy atmosphere of grief everywhere in this room, which made people feel depressed and depressed.
was silently led to the garden in the community, and the afterglow of the setting sun paved an ambiguous dusk on the small community garden.
In the gazebo, on the benches, several elderly people are playing chess and chatting, looking leisurely and peaceful.
Pulling her to sit down on a chair, Men Shaoting looked at the happy old people in front of him with soft eyes, and couldn't help but show an envious expression on his face.
Sang Zhi flattened his mouth, "No, Men Shaoting, how old are you, and you start yearning for the life of the elderly?" ”
Men Shaoting smiled: "It's not that I yearn for their lives, but I envy their indifferent and peaceful state." ”
Since joining the army at the age of eighteen, he has lived a life of hardship and death every day, and the rich material rewards are not enough to make up for the shortcomings in his heart.
If Men Shaoting said that he actually wanted to be like ordinary people, going to work and getting off work every day and living a dull life, it is estimated that his subordinates will fall their jaws in fright one by one, right?
The self-deprecating smile is just a fantasy, since the moment he promised his grandfather, he was destined for an extraordinary life.
"Men Shaoting, are you okay?" Sang Zhi was a little frightened by Men Shaoting's emotional side, and stretched out his hand to shake it in front of his eyes, "Are you still thinking about Fang Jie?" ”
After all, he and Fang Jie have been friends for many years, and people leave so suddenly, even if they are as indifferent as him, they will inevitably feel uncomfortable and painful in their hearts, right?
"Him?" The corners of Men Shaoting's mouth twitched twice almost invisibly, and the cunning in his eyes flashed.
didn't continue the topic of Fang Jiao, and instead asked Sang Zhi: "You plan to stay with Su Lin tonight, right?" ”
"Hmm." Sang Zhi nodded a little embarrassedly.
She had the intention to stay with Su Lin, after all, she had experienced so much pain and had no relatives by her side, so Sang Zhi was still a little worried about Su Lin.
But thinking of being a wife, I don't know if Men Shaoting will be unhappy.
"yes, I see. Let's go, go back. As he spoke, Men Shaoting pulled the mulberry branch and walked back.
When he came to Su Lin's door, he stopped in front of his off-road vehicle, opened the door, took out a set of skirts and handed it to Sang Zhi.
"What is this?" Sang Zhi took it and looked at Men Shaoting suspiciously.
Why did this product suddenly remember to give himself clothes? Or is it pure black?
Men Shaoting smiled: "Take it, let's wear this when I go to the cemetery tomorrow." ”
Sang Zhi looked at Men Shaoting gratefully, feeling that he had already thought that he would stay with Su Lin, this was to prepare tomorrow's clothes for himself in advance.
This man is so careful!
"Men Shaoting, thank you." Sang Zhi said from the bottom of his heart.
Men Shaoting raised his eyelids, pinched her chin and said with a smile: "If you say, husband, thank you, I will be much happier." ”
Sang Zhi was forced to raise his head and look at him by pinching his chin, looking at his hippie smiling face, he couldn't help but feel shy, and his little face instantly turned crimson.
"Shameless!" lowered his eyes, blushed and cursed in a low voice.
"Heh......" Men Shaoting sneered, "Let you know what it means to be truly shameless." ”
As she spoke, she lowered her head and leaned over her soft lips accurately.
"Hmm......" Sang Zhi never expected that this man would be so bold as to be here, and kiss her at the door of Su Lin's house, which made her feel helpless for a while.
I was stunned and ate tofu for a long time, until my brain was deprived of oxygen and I couldn't breathe, and I woke up suddenly.
Forcefully pushed him away from his body, leaned on the car, one hand in front of his chest, and shouted while panting: "Stop, you have too many points!" ”
"Hah...... Is it excessive? I think someone is looking forward to it with a look of enjoyment! Men Shaoting touched his nose and laughed.
"Phew, you're just enjoying it, you're looking forward to it!"
Sang Zhi glared at him fiercely, decided not to pay attention to this shameless man, and turned around and walked towards Su Lin's house.
"Zhizhi ......" Men Shaoting stopped her.
Sang Zhi turned around and raised his eyebrows: "What are you doing?" "The tone is not good.
"Heh......" Men Shaoting chuckled, the little woman was angry, and her cheeks were really cute.
"Persuade Su Lin well and make her want to open a little. And also...... Take care of yourself, and I'll pick you up early tomorrow morning. Men Shaoting looked at her with tenderness and instructed intimately.
Sang Zhi was embarrassed, still not used to his affectionate appearance.
Nodding, "I see, be careful when you drive yourself." ”
"Hmmm......"
Watching Men Shaoting's car drive out of the community, Sang Zhi came back to his senses and entered Su Lin's house.
Coaxed Guoguo to fall asleep at night, Sang Zhi and Su Lin were lying on the same bed, Su Lin was obviously a little silent, not as talkative as before.
"Sister Su, if you want to open a little, Guoguo still needs you to take care of it, you have to be strong." Mulberry Zhi will not comfort people, and it took a long time to say such a comforting word.
Su Lin smiled reluctantly, and suddenly grabbed Sang Zhi's arm, which frightened Sang Zhi.
"Sister Su...... You ......"
"Zhizhi, I have a feeling that Fang Jie is not dead at all, he must be angry with me, where he is hiding and refuses to come out to see me!"
Sang Zhi's nose was sour when he heard this, and he almost burst into tears, "Sister Su, people can't be resurrected after death, you mourn, don't think so much." It's better to think more about your future life and think more about your fruits. ”
"Zhizhi ......" Su Lin couldn't help but cry again, "I wish he hadn't died!" ”
Sang Zhi felt sad for a while, yes, who doesn't hope so, how much I hope this is a dream!
The next day, Men Shaoting came early.
The drove and took Su Lin and Guoguo, while Sang Zhi drove with Men Shaoting and went straight to the cemetery on the outskirts of Beijing.
Su Lin spared no expense and spent a lot of money to help Fang rectify and set up a cemetery with good feng shui in such a short period of time.
On this day, the sky was gloomy, as if it was going to rain at any time.
When they arrived at the cemetery, several of Fang Jie's friends and some colleagues had already arrived one after another.
Fang Jie is an orphan, with no relatives and no reason, and Su Lin's hometown is not local, plus the incident happened suddenly, there is no time to tell the family, thinking that when everything is arranged, he will slowly tell the family.
So the people who came to see Fang Jie off, in addition to Su Lin's mother and son, were a few close friends and some colleagues in the unit.
Su Lin took her son, and under the sad gaze of everyone, put a set of casual clothes that Fang Jie usually liked to wear into the tomb, and said softly: "You are too tired to live here, don't keep thinking about work when you get there, and rest well." ”
After saying that, holding Guoguo couldn't help crying bitterly, and after a while, Sang Zhi went over to pull her, and the crying gradually stopped.
"Fang Jie, don't worry, Guoguo will only have one father in this life, and there will be no second one." Su Lin wiped her tears, and swore to Fang Jie that she would never marry again in this life.
Sang Zhi felt desolate in his heart when he heard this, did Su Lin cut off his own back road?
Everyone was also sad and sad when they heard this, and they felt that Su Lin was distressed and pitiful. A woman in her early thirties has to spend the rest of her life alone with a child, how much perseverance and endurance it takes, and how much loneliness she has to endure is by no means something that ordinary women can do!
After the simple and short ceremony, a sharp flash crossed the sky, followed by two muffled thunders, and bean-sized raindrops poured down.
Fortunately, everyone read the weather forecast in advance and prepared, opened their umbrellas, and got on the bus and returned in an orderly manner.
Sang Zhi held an umbrella and sent Su Lin and Guoguo to the car, and turned his head to look at Men Shaoting.
"Why don't you go together?"
Men Shaoting smiled: "The will send you back first, and I'll go over later." ”
Sang Zhi nodded, anyway, he has his own car, and he is not afraid that he will not be able to go back.
Seeing the's car disappear from sight, Men Shaoting slowly turned his head and glanced at a huge pine and cypress next to him.
"Come out, it's a big person, sneaking aside and eavesdropping, are you embarrassed!"
