Chapter 27: Memories of Dreams
In the face of the swift curiosity in his heart, Xiao Chen took it for granted that he didn't really go upstairs to eavesdrop on anything, he always had a premonition in his heart that if he listened, some beast would be awakened.
After taking a shower, he sat down at his desk, where there were still a lot of books he hadn't read. But the rest are children's stories and first-grade school textbooks.
I picked up a brightly colored picture book, "Aite Bear and Senna Mouse", a watercolor picture book from France, which is not bright but extraordinarily full of dreamy feeling, and a bear and a mouse, living together for their own interests, but in the end they are deeply trapped in friendship and dare to challenge their respective societies. Whether it is its painting style, or the fascinating, tear-jerking plot, and the ending that makes people laugh at the end, Xiao Chen, who is quite simple at present, cried and laughed when he saw it. This is a completely unrealistic, but touching and healing picture book, which actually makes this big man as emotionally changeable as a child.
After reading this picture book, he took a deep breath to stabilize his emotions, then took a notebook and a pen, and from the beginning, he softly read the whole book from beginning to end, and copied the words he didn't know. As long as he understood it once, he learned more and more from the existing knowledge, and the words in his mouth became more and more fluent.
This night, Xiao Chen fell asleep again when the sky was about to dawn. Before going to bed, several fairy tales he read all night were reincarnated in his mind.
On a cloudy day, in a villa that can barely be called luxurious, a family of three lives in it.
"Xiao Chen, you...... Really reluctant to stay? Stay at home and stay with us? ”
A woman over thirty years old, her voice was a little weak, and even her whole body seemed to be a little shaky. Even if she is over thirty, this woman is like a young girl in the flower season, with a beautiful face, a slender and slender figure, allowed to be delicately outlined by a slender white dress, and her long hair is fluttering and scattered behind her back. And her face was already like a pear blossom with rain. The soft lips trembled slightly, as if the previous words had exhausted half of her life's strength.
"No, I've decided, I have to go! Though...... Although I do love you and Dad very much, since I have made this decision, I will not be bothered by the love of small family! At the entrance, a thirteen-year-old boy, carrying a bag on his back, said with a resolute face, as if he was the father who was over thirty years old, and the weak request of the family left him with his daughter.
"But do you know how dangerous it is? Even if you train since childhood, the battlefield is not a training ground after all! The delicate woman, Xiao Chen's mother, bit her lip stubbornly, although she knew that Xiao Chen would not listen to persuasion, but no matter what, she hoped that he could stay at home, as long as he stayed at home......
Taking a deep breath, Xiao Chen deeply suppressed the wavering in his heart, and he stared at his mother's eyes, with wolf-like wildness and determination in his eyes.
"Mom, right now, it's the enemy of the country, and my father can't go to war, I can! The enemy is pressing the border, the whole country is up, and the husband is responsible, this kind of textbook learning, I naturally can't forget! Although I don't like the current government, I don't like it even more because of this modern human rights society, but every time they conquer a place, they are slaughtered! ”
"So, I'm going to fight for this poor country, to change! If I can't change all this, then I will dedicate my flesh and blood to the people of this country! ”
Such imposing words made his mother's face turn whiter and paler.
"That's it, let him go!"
At this moment, a sound sounded, the sound of tires rolling on the ground, and came to the mother's side.
"But ......"
"Since he wants to go, let's go. However, since you choose to get out of this house, if you don't do what you just said, don't let me get back! ”
In the wheelchair, a man who was also over thirty years old but looked slightly old didn't even look at Xiao Chen and said.
As soon as this man spoke, Xiao Chen's eyes unconsciously shed tears.
"I know, the day the enemy retreats, and this country is completely changed, it will be the day I return home!"
After resolutely saying this, Xiao Chen stepped out of the house, and then closed the door slammed shut.
"Nope! Xiao Chen! Don't go! No...... Don't go ......"
Inside the door, there was a heart-rending cry from her mother, but no one chased her out, probably because her father had stopped her.
Turning his head again and glancing at his comfortable mansion, Xiao Chen sighed lightly, then shook his head, his face returned to the previous perseverance, and strode forward.
Knock knock!
"Liu Han? Xiao Chen, you're still sleeping, then I'll come in! ”
Outside the door, with a sound that seemed familiar and unfamiliar, the door was opened by itself. Xiao Chen's eyes were slightly relaxed, but his consciousness was not clear.
"Yo, woke up?" Seeing Xiao Chen's appearance, Liu Yuehan was first shocked, and then as if she had thought of something, she sneered and said, "That, it wasn't me knocking on the door that woke you up, right?" ”
"Hmmm......"
In fact, Xiao Chen didn't listen to anything in his head, but his intuition told him that it seemed that Liu Yuehan had asked something, in short, let's talk about it first.
"In that case, let's get up!" Liu Yuehan chuckled lightly and pulled Xiao Chen up from the bed.
"Shouldn't you be reading all night again? It's all said don't push yourself too much! After that, you can learn slowly! Liu Yuehan said while shaking him, with no intention of letting him sleep for a while.
"Hmm...... Well...... I'm awake! Under Liu Yuehan's naughty repeated shaking, Xiao Chen finally came to his senses and said hurriedly, the former stopped "ravaging" him.
"Let's go to the street again today and buy some study materials and utensils for you, so get up quickly, I won't eat breakfast anyway, it's almost noon, so let's eat out then!" After Xiao Chen put on his clothes, Liu Yuehan told his plan for today. In other words, starting today, there are more things to learn.
"By the way, what about uncle and aunt?" Xiao Chen asked.
"Mom goes to work as usual, and Dad is bored, and it seems that he has gone to play billiards with a friend." Liu Yuehan said helplessly, as if she was very dissatisfied with her father who went out to play as soon as she came back. As a high-ranking government official, he actually openly ran out to play on his working days, which is obviously not enough news!
Xiao Chen nodded, got up and went to wash. Although he was very interested in what Jiang Yue was doing, at the moment he was thinking more about what he had before, that dream.
"What's that? Is it me? If it's a dream, it's too real, and the feeling of grief in my heart is so real...... Could it be that this is part of my memory? Sure enough, I went to join the army. Xiao Chen brushed his teeth and thought quietly in his heart.
If it were as stated in the dream, about ten years ago, the country should have been invaded, and he joined the army to defend the country. Just ask Liu Rizhuo which country had a war during that period to know his nationality.
