On the twenty-third day of the lunar month, on the day of the New Year, the gray sky of Qingzhou was full of blood.

Xu Weizhen has been fighting for a long time, and he is eager for quick success, and the people everywhere he goes are full of complaints, and in the past few months, there have been dozens of unmasking rebellion activities, large and small, and the warlords in various places have died and their teeth are cold, and a trend of alliance has gradually formed. In order to leave a way out, Xu Weizhen did not hesitate to collude with the Japanese forces, whose activities were becoming more and more rampant.

On the 22nd night of the lunar month, Onodera, a Japanese confidential officer, died on the couch of the Crow Tower. The Japanese side began a large-scale manhunt and massacre in Qingzhou, and all the traders in the province who had some ties to the tobacco business were not spared.

Ping Yan thought that Bai Heng and Mu Zicheng had been planning for so long, and they really started to act, and planned to kill people with knives on the Japanese. It's just that they probably never expected the Japanese to be so mad and the price of their personal revenge to be so great.

Sure enough, not long after, Onodera's death naturally involved Shen Yucheng, because now the tobacco business in Qingzhou has to pass through his hands, and he is also one of the shareholders behind the Cui Ya Building. The Japanese are eyeing up and trying in vain to meddle in internal affairs, so naturally they will not give up and do everything possible to ask for explanations.

This is a game that Bai Heng and Mu Zi became Shen Yucheng, but it became Mu Zicheng who filled in the game in the end.

Shen Yucheng got the news of He Hua from somewhere, and threatened with He Hua's life to force Mu Zicheng to take all the charges, so Mu Zicheng avenged the Mu family's personal vendetta, set up a bureau to deal with Jiangbei, framed him, and killed Onodera, so this statement has become a sure fact.

That day, he went to Hanshan Nunnery to meet He Hua.

The sun shines in the cold forest, and the tired birds return to their nests.

Due to her years of eye problems, she has developed excellent hearing. Every time he took a slight step closer, she would gently take a half step back, to maintain the distance between the two of them. In the end, he didn't move, just looked at her quietly, the face that he could barely recognize, but he recognized at a glance, the memory buried in his heart for so many years was like a dead tree taking root, stabbing into the flesh and blood, growing madly and silently.

"Donor, the poor nun is going back to recite the scriptures." She bowed slightly and turned away.

He called out to He Hua, and her steps were not in the slightest, as if she had never been his He Hua.

He Hua died early in that year.

Mu Zicheng died under the gun that day, and after Nie Caidie collected his body, he set himself on fire in the room and lit a fire to burn himself clean. In the end, Hehua did not survive this winter. Three people and three graves, thinking about everything, no one has ever gotten anything, no one has taken anything.

The winter of that year was really long.

"Buddha, walk slowly, don't fall." Ping Yan sat in the shade of the tree sewing clothes, shouting once or twice from time to time. The Buddha is almost two years old, and the child grows up quickly, and the clothes are small quickly, so he should make more preparations.

"With me watching, what are you afraid of, my sister is getting more and more nagging." Tan'er shouted, squatting down with one arm, and Buddha Sheng immediately pounced on her.

Xizong tilted his head and looked at Ping Yan threading the needle, his eyes round and staring. She smiled: "What's wrong today, why don't you go to play with your brother?" ”

"Why does my younger brother have a mother to make clothes to wear, why doesn't Xizong have a mother?"

She put down the needle and thread in her hand, hugged him and sat on her lap, "You can also call me my mother like the Buddha's brother." ”

"Really?"

"Of course it's true." She rubbed his little head.

"Mother......" he cried timidly, his little face flushed, "I'm hungry and want to eat cloud cake." ”

"It's been less than half a day, and Xizong has already eaten it four times, no." The child was intellectually impaired, and he was often hungry and hungry.

Xizong pursed his lips, and immediately cried out, and rolled to the ground with a flutter.

Ping Yan bent down to pull him, he clasped the ground, but the more he cried, the more fierce he became, when he was at a loss, he didn't know what he saw, his round body shook, and he immediately sat up obediently. She looked in that direction, it was Shen Yucheng, no wonder, Xizong had always been afraid of him, a father who always had a gloomy face.

"Let's go play with Brother Buddha and Aunt Tan, and eat cloud cake later, okay?"

Ping Yan patted the dirt on his body and discussed with him in a gentle tone.

He nodded his head twice and ran away in a hurry.

Ping Yan couldn't help but show a hint of a smile and said, "Why are you here?" Xizong is fine here, you don't have to worry. ”

He stared at her blankly, and she wondered, "What's wrong?" ”

He seemed to come back to his senses, and he also smiled a little, "It's nothing, it's been a long time since I've seen you smile so sincerely, which makes me a little trance." ”

Ping Yan smiled, gentle and indifferent, and did not answer this, but only asked, "Is something wrong?" ”

He stared at her deeply for a few moments, then smiled, a little lost between his eyebrows, "I asked Li Yong to buy a ferry ticket, and escort you back to Yuzhou early in the morning after tomorrow." ”

"Why do you suddenly want to go back to the lockdown? Is something wrong? ”

"You don't care so much, as long as I am here, I will protect you."

"Is something going to happen in Qingzhou?" She had a foreboding premonition.

He held her hands, she wanted to break free, but he held it tighter and tighter, "Obedient, take Buddha Sheng and Xizong back." ”

She seemed to be able to see a strong parting sadness in his eyes, and it was strangely quiet until he let go of his hands. Somehow, she suddenly said, "Take care." ”

He looked at her stupidly, tears darkened, and his eyes were a little hazy, "With your words, even if it is death, it is worth it." ”

Before leaving, she went to look for Bai Heng. This year, he has become a popular man in front of the Japanese, Ping Yan has nothing to warn him, and there is nothing to comfort him, what he is doing now, good or bad, good or evil, has gradually detached from his original heart and is unforgivable. This is just a farewell, the real troubled times have just begun, and in the future, the sky is high and the earth is far away, and the smoke of gunpowder will be filled, maybe she will not see him again, and she doesn't want to see him again.

They drank once tonight, and they were very drunk with each other, reminiscing about the past, which was nothing more than fighting in the garden and loving each other. Later, he talked about his end, which was nothing more than a notorious death, and he didn't mind at all, saying that it was suffering and hatred that forced him into this desperate situation, and if he was asked to choose again, he would still do it, because he couldn't turn back, and when he turned back, it would be an abyss, and instead of letting him be trapped in a nightmare, then he might as well be a heinous demon.

Ping Yan had a hunch that this was the last time they would be in this life. He also seemed to have this premonition, so they told all the joys and sorrows that night.

In March, the grass grows and the warbler flies, and the smoke is sparkling. She returned to Yuzhou in such a beautiful season, the first time she came to the lockdown was in such a March, and the first time she met Shen Yuchen was also in such a March.

In the end, she entered the gate of the Shen family as Shen Yucheng's remarried wife, and she and Shen Yuchen really lived under the same roof and were relatively incompatible.

In July, there was an urgent report from Qingzhou, Xu Weizhen did many evils, colluded with Japan, treasoned and ceded land, and his son-in-law Shen Yucheng could not bear his crimes, uphold the righteousness, and completely split with Jiangbei. Yuzhou Shen Wei responded positively, and for a time patriots from all over the country attacked him one after another.

In August, the osmanthus flowers were fragrant, the autumn harvest was stored, and countless refugees from the war were poured into the city for a while, and the Shen family opened a porridge shed to scatter good medicine and set up a difficult place, which was unspeakably busy for a while.

In the evening, Lin Lixue suddenly came in a hurry, this was the first time she had entered her yard in such a long time.

Her face was covered with sweat, and she panicked and said, "You...... Do you still have any money on you? Can you lend me some, you also know that now that all the money of the Shen family has been used to help the refugees, it is really difficult to get it out. ”

"What's wrong? Is something wrong? ”

She hesitated for a long time before she said, "I want to go to Qingzhou." ”

"Are you crazy? Now that Qingzhou is in dire straits, the war is tight, where did most of these refugees escape to pick up their lives, aren't you going to die? ”

"I have to go!" Her tone was resolute, and there were tears in her eyes, "The king's sleeve is there." ”

"What did you say?"

"I heard from a couple of refugees today...... They said that the famous adjutant of the king was reduced to a beggar on the street, beaten and scolded, and stole like a lost dog......" she choked up and couldn't speak, "I always thought he was dead, so I obediently followed Uncle Shen back to Shen's house, it turned out that he was not dead, he was still alive." ”

She stepped forward, bursting into tears, almost crazy, "Not long after I returned to Shen's house, I found out that I was pregnant with his child in my belly, Shen Yuchen and I have been a fake couple from beginning to end, and all he thought about in his heart was you. ”

Ping Yan was shocked, "How is it possible?" He's been ignoring me these days. ”

"That's because he was dying, and although he escaped the explosion, he was very badly injured, and he didn't have a few years to live. In the six months since you came, his health has become worse, he is busy during the day, vomiting blood at night, and he relies on medicine to hang his life, you know medicine, don't you feel that the smell of medicine on his body has become heavier and heavier recently? ”

"He has been taking care of the work of purchasing and distributing medicinal herbs, and I haven't paid much attention to it, it turns out that ......"

"He didn't let me tell you this, the reason why I told you is to ask you to understand how difficult it is to live with your loved ones in such an era of impermanence of life and death, even if you meet each other, and live a happy life for a few days. I must go to Qingzhou to find Wang Sleeve, whether he lives or dies. ”

"I met him once in Qingzhou, and he said that he can't give you anything more, and he hopes that you can live a peaceful life in the Shen family."

"How calm?" She was quite emotional, "You tell me, can you watch Shen Yuchen suffer, but can endure your thoughts and be content with this peaceful life without asking!" ”

Yes, what kind of qualifications does she have to persuade others if she can't do it herself.

Lin Lixue left overnight, knowing that she was lucky and might not be able to come back, so she didn't leave any letters, so as not to be missed, as if the world had evaporated, but before leaving, she personally cooked for her daughter Jinxiu and made her favorite walnut cake.

Ping Yan finally didn't tell Lin Lixue's whereabouts to the second elder of the Shen family, she had an intuition that Shen Yuchen must know where Lin Lixue went, but he didn't tell the truth, but half a month later, he prevaricated a reason, saying that she had the whereabouts of her relatives who were separated many years ago and went to look for it, but she didn't know how long she would look for it, let alone when she would come back. Maybe won't come back.
