Life: Twenty
After breakfast in the early morning, Su Zhi didn't have time to try the cotton clothes made by Shi Qiuxin, so he hurried to the camp, and asked Shi Qiu what he wanted to eat when he left? When I came back, I bought it from the street.
Shi Qiu complained about Su Zhi, he knew Hu Mai all day long, and he hadn't finished eating the baked cakes he bought the day before yesterday, and he had to buy something to eat back.
Similar to this kind of complaint, every time Shi Qiu said it, Su Zhi didn't hear it every time, he saw something fresh and rare, should he buy it or buy it at home, other people's men are blaming women for spending money indiscriminately, and now they are the opposite, Shi Qiu doesn't love clothes or jewelry, Su Zhi buys and buys for her on the street all day long.
The position of the lower abdomen has been slightly bulging, Shi Qiu has already begun to prepare the clothes for the child to wear, he can eat a bowl of rice on weekdays, and now he eats a bowl and a half, hoping that the child will be healthy and strong, and the child will suffer less and the adults will also enjoy the blessings.
When it was dusk, after the time of going home in the past, Su Zhi had not yet returned.
Shi Qiu waited in the room for a while, then went to the door to wait for a while, and finally sent Zhiwen to inquire to see if there was anything important temporary.
Zhiwen went and didn't come back.
When Shi Qiu was in a hurry at home, a person in Su Zhi's camp ran over, knelt down in front of Shi Qiu with a puff, and asked Shi Qiu to go to the city gate to pick up Su Zhi back.
Shi Qiu panicked when he heard this, no matter what happened in the past, Su Zhi would not ask her to squeeze in the crowd to pick him up, even if he was injured, he himself was either riding a horse or a car, and when it was time to come back, he would come back, and he had never called someone else to inform her like now.
A heart suddenly rose to his throat, and Shi Qiu asked in a trembling voice, "But he's injured?" Is the injury serious? ”
Who knew that when the man heard Shi Qiu's words, he actually hugged his head and cried.
Shi Qiu was anxious and shouted at the man, "What's wrong? You say, what are you crying here? ”
The man wailed and cried, tears and snot running down his face, and said a sentence that killed Shi Qiu.
"My lord, it's gone."
Shi Qiu felt that the sky was dark, his body was weak, he staggered back a step, and hurriedly stepped forward and asked the man, "What nonsense are you talking about?" What happened to him? What happened to Su Zhi? ”
"The Beidi people knew that as long as there were adults, it would be difficult to capture Liangcheng, so they inquired about the whereabouts of the adults in advance, and sent a team of cavalry to sneak over from the path, and assassinated the adults on the way.
Shi Qiu instantly felt five thunderbolts, and felt that the words he heard in his ears were the most ridiculous words in the world, her husband was fine when he went out in the morning, he still had her newly made cotton clothes to wear, and he also said that when he came back, he would buy her what she wanted to eat, he said that when their children grew up, he would teach his children to ride horses, and said that even if the children did not become officials in the future, they could be a wine-making businessman like her.
Why did he still have so many words that he hadn't fulfilled, and suddenly he was gone!
Shi Qiu ran in the direction of the city gate, she wanted to see her husband who had returned from horseback, to see that he was healthy and safe, to see him full of majesty with a sword at his waist, and then to listen to him kindly call Madame, to prove that what this person said was all a lie!
The streets began to be filled with people, and some people began to whimper and cry.
Shi Qiu pushed away the crowd and ran forward, running as if thousands of steel needles had been pierced in his lungs, he didn't dare to breathe in pain, listening to people's crying, he felt ridiculous.
Running to the city gate, Shi Qiu found that Zhiwen was kneeling in the middle of the road, his face facing the direction of the city gate, and he was crying silently with his head down.
Shi Qiu pulled up the execution and taught him in a stern tone that he had never said before: "What are you doing here?" Your stepfather is not dead! ”
Zhiwen raised his head and glanced at Shi Qiu, knelt on the ground again with a pop, and called his mother in grief.
Shi Qiu angrily stretched out his hand to hit him, angry at how obedient he was originally a child, and now he actually began to lie to her with others! What's wrong with them? Now they are joining forces to harm her, telling her in the most poisonous words that her husband is dead.
How is this possible!
With Shi Qiu's slap raised, the thick and ** city gate of Liangcheng slowly opened, and a team of soldiers with white cloth tied on their heads walked towards this side with a pitch-black coffin.
As the coffin got closer and closer, the surrounding people actually knelt down with a hula, and some of them began to cry with tears, one crying, two crying, everyone was moved, and the crying was actually connected.
Shi Qiu looked at the big word "Dian" on the approaching coffin, and felt that his head exploded with a buzz, and then all the thoughts in his mind were confused for a moment, and the world began to spin in front of him, and the pale word "Dian" became more and more blurred the closer he got to it, until it became pitch black and could no longer be seen......
This time, Shi Qiu had a very beautiful dream, dreaming that Su Zhi came back at night and tried her new clothes, Shi Qiu tidied up the corners of his clothes, saying that the sleeves were a little narrow, and asked Su Zhi to take them off, and change them for him tomorrow, but Su Zhi was afraid of tiring her, and said that the sleeves were just right, and if they were tight, they would not pour wind into them, and they would be warmer when riding.
Shi Qiu smiled and scolded him for being poor, Su Zhi only smiled and didn't speak, turned around and took out the baked cakes he bought from the east of the city from the oiled paper bag behind him, Shi Qiu looked at the baked cakes exactly the same as the rest of the day before yesterday, he was always careless when he bought them, and forgot that he still had them at home.
But this time Shi Qiu didn't blame him, took the baked cake and took out a bite, baked it until it was browned sesame seeds, chewed it until he couldn't taste it in his mouth, swallowed it, and felt his heart hurt.
Shi Qiu's dream has been going on for a long time, she is immersed in the dream and doesn't want to wake up, but there is always a time when the sky is bright, no matter how beautiful the dream is, there is a time when it comes to an end.
She was in a coma for two days and one night, and when she woke up at night, there was no Su Zhi by her side.
The funeral was handled by an eleven or twelve-year-old child in Zhiwen, and Shi Qiu could imagine his small figure carrying a white flag, on the way where the snow in Liangcheng had not yet melted, he kowtowed step by step, sending away his father and his father-in-law.
Shi Qiu felt that his sky had collapsed all of a sudden, and when he looked up and lived, he didn't know what he was living for?
Su Zhi was buried next to Xiao Bao'er, and the two most important and beloved people in her life left her in this world.
Shi Qiu grabbed the loess on the grave, cried heartbreakingly, and couldn't make any sound when he cried hoarsely, but he still couldn't call Su Zhi back.
I don't know how long I've been crying, how long I've been shouting, how long I've been crazy, gradually, Shi Qiu exhausted all her energy, and now she is as fragile as a piece of glass that will break, dying of breath.
Zhiwen and Shi Juan stayed by her side, persuading her to think about it for the sake of the child in her belly, with the child here, there is always some hope for her life.
Shi Qiu stroked her stomach, which was Su Zhi's only bone and blood, and she also wanted to keep him desperately, but Shi Qiu felt that her body was getting weaker and weaker, and she was a little powerless.
The old doctor in Liangcheng prescribed the best tonic medicine, and came to diagnose Shi Qiu's pulse again and again, Shi Qiu drank a well-made soup with a tonic for the fetus, she tried her best, but she still failed to save the child in her belly.
When she had a miscarriage, she died for life, and her relatives around her barely took her life, but Shi Qiu no longer had the will to survive.
At this time, Zhiwen came and knelt beside her bedside, saying that he had entrusted it to her by his father, and that he had not yet grown up, had not fulfilled her responsibilities, and could not let go of it.
Zhiwen brought one letter after another from the study, and knelt in front of the bed to read it to her. The letter was not written to her by someone else, and the letter was written by Su Zhi from the first year to the last day of their marriage.
Only then did Shi Qiu know that every time Su Zhi led the troops to go on an expedition, he would quietly leave her a will, the content on which was scattered, but the meaning expressed was the same.
He wants her to live well no matter what happens, Su Zhi said that he promised his brother to take good care of Zhiwen and grow up, if he can't do it, Shi Qiu, as his wife, must do it.
Su Zhi wanted her to live, he wanted her to live well, not so much to let her bear the responsibility of taking care of Zhiwen, but to leave her a reason to live.
Shi Qiu grabbed the sheets under him, stared at the roof blankly, couldn't cry, the tears had dried up, and the whole person's soul seemed to have followed Su Zhi away, and only a body remained in the world.
Slowly, Shi Qiu's words began to become very few, when Zhiwen went to school during the day, it seemed that only Aunt Sun was in the whole house, and then Aunt Sun's health was not good, and the house was empty, as if there were no people.
Zhiwen has experienced so many blows and injuries at a young age, and he is still a good and careful child, he will go home and recite the articles taught by Mr. Bai to Shi Qiu, and will talk about all the interesting things he encountered.
It can be said that there is still only his own voice in the whole house.
Her Shiqiu was also chattering constantly, such as when she stood in front of Su Zhi's grave, such as when she saw the things he used in the room and remembered what he said, she always kept talking to him in her heart.
After a long time, Shi Qiu felt that Su Zhi might not have left, and he might just have accompanied her in a different way.
Sometimes lying down at night, Shi Qiu would recall the first time they met, when they were in a hurry under the rain, as if this life was destined to be good, she entered the Yuelao Temple, and he was waiting for her there.
The word fate is vividly reflected in them, and the two people who met in Pingshui will meet again in Liangcheng.
Shi Qiu always felt faintly in her heart that she would see Su Zhi again, and she would definitely be.
