Chapter 154: Let's Eat a Pig's Head
Hiding behind a wall of sandbags stacked on the fortifications, Chen Yu watched her leave and watched her walk forward with brisk steps.
In this life, I never thought that one day, I would be as young as her, looking forward to the fantasy of the future life. In the previous life, I lived a step-by-step life, and I lived a fulfilling life every day, and I fantasized that I could be useful. Now there is, but I hope that future generations will not need such a place.
In this life, years of rout and flight made me disbelieve, and the whole body was powerless to struggle in endless disappointment and resentment. With the ability to do something, even if it is small, it can be regarded as being able to do something, and the personality has also changed over the years. Time will change a person, once Chen Yu didn't believe it, but reality is changing him.
Reaching out to wipe away the non-existent tears in the corners of his eyes, how much I hope to care for and pamper her like a lover at this moment. It seemed beautiful to stand up when she was scared, and it was beautiful.
Raising his head and looking around at the courtyard that he hadn't come for a long time, it didn't seem to have changed, but there were just a lot of people missing.
In the cattle fence outside the regimental department, a buffalo lies on its knees in the fence, flapping its tail at will to drive away mosquitoes.
The regimental headquarters has changed, with less killing and more of life. The lame Ma Yuan, on crutches, picked up a bundle of grass outside the cattle fence and fed it to the buffalo, smiling at the growing buffalo.
Ma Yuan did not wear a military uniform, but wore a navy blue homespun cloth in southern Yunnan, and wore a military hat without a cockade on his head.
got up and walked into the regiment headquarters, Ma Yuan saw Chen Yu coming back, and hurriedly ran over with a cane.
When I walked through the door, I saw that the inside had changed. The hall, which used to serve as the headquarters of the regimental headquarters, was home to seven or eight old sewing machines, which the disabled and wounded soldiers were using to cut their clothes.
In just over half a month, this place has become unrecognizable.
Ma Yuan told Chen Yu that the Sichuan Army had changed its station, everyone had left here, and this place was left for these disabled soldiers to live in. Yu Xiaoqing also came to inspect once, and was very satisfied with the aftermath of the Sichuan Army's treatment of the disabled soldiers, and gave them the first order to cut a batch of military uniforms and clothing.
It's small, but it's enough for these people to be busy. Ma Yuan and they retired, and Tang Ji was kind enough to give them a discharge fee, ten yuan per person, and national currency.
Walking into the room where he used to be, it was already inhabited, and his personal belongings were neatly arranged and covered with canvas in the corner.
Ma Yuan wanted to explain, but Chen Yu didn't want him to explain. Now that the Sichuan Legion has left here, then he should also leave and go to find the Sichuan Legion.
Lifting the canvas, an old British marching bag, plus a bundle of books, this is all Chen Yu's belongings. The military salary that was paid before is still there, and they haven't moved a penny and won't move.
With the help of a disabled man with a broken hand or foot, a wounded soldier walked out of the gate with a marching bag on his back and a bundle of books.
Chen Yu glanced back at the gate of the Sichuan Legion Headquarters, and the people inside all walked out. Among a group of disabled retired soldiers, Chen Yu, as a wounded, is the most intact one.
"Sir, you're a good sir."
Chen Yu smiled and said: "Live well, help each other when you need to help, and you will have to walk by yourself in the future." ”
Ma Yuan sat on the ground and cried, this young student from Sichuan, who dropped out of middle school to join the army, he is only 17 years old this year. He served in the army for a year and a half, and spent one of those years alive as a wounded, and was a junior before he was discharged.
It's hard to imagine that half of these people have read books. In the first half of their lives, they learned etiquette, righteousness, honesty, mathematics, Chinese literature, science and physics, etc., but they did not have a place to use in the army for more than half a year, and learning how to use a sewing machine and cut clothes for a few months will be their reliance in the second half of their lives.
Staggering out of the courtyard that was no longer the headquarters of the Sichuan Legion, Chen Yu became more and more difficult with each step.
Ma Yuan and they have their own house and life, but where are they going?
To go to the west bank to find Ah Yi stationed in the cymbals, or to wander aimlessly in the city of Chanda, the first thing to do is to leave this courtyard full of memories.
Get out of here and head to the street intersection ahead.
After turning a few street corners and alleys, Chen Yu returned to the noodle stall owner, took out a half-open piece from his pocket and threw it on the table.
"The money she gave you just now was refunded to me, and this is my face money."
The boss was confused, but he still picked up the half-open on the table, retrieved the previous national currency, and brought Chen Yu to find five cents of national currency. The difference in the value of the semi-open and national currencies has widened in the protracted war, one is hard currency, and the other is paper money that has depreciated rapidly.
"Master Jun, where are you going?"
After taking the money, Chen Yu looked back at the alley where the person appeared, and walked forward. Finding her home in the intricate paths of Chanda is a needle in a haystack.
Walking to the entrance road, Chen Yu turned back again, and the noodle stall owner looked at him like this, stretching out his hand to look at the alley in front of him.
"Turn your right hand three times."
Chen Yu turned his head to look at him, where Chen Yu knew that it was not an alley where a serious woman lived: "Do you know where she lives?" ”
"Isn't the military master looking for a woman to play?"
"Roll Nima's eggs, Lao Tzu has lifted your noodle stall!"
Carrying the book in a huff, Chen Yu turned his head and left the noodle stall. In the future, he will never patronize his business again, this is the biggest punishment that Chen Yu decided to give him, and after thinking about it, he can only vent his anger like this.
Walking on the street, the atmosphere of Chanda life is strong, and there are also routs who are sitting, lying, or sleeping on the side of the street and have nowhere to go.
The battle was won, this should not be the soldiers withdrawn from Nantianmen, but the soldiers who retreated from the distant hinterland, just like themselves in the past. Looking at those soldiers, it is estimated that it is another big defeat, perhaps a rout of small defeats.
In front of a pawnshop where he had bought a Mauser, Chen Yu saw her, and at this time she was holding a loose bill and putting it in her pocket.
This guy lied, and her life was not easy after being kicked out, and now she has to live by pawning items. She said that she starved to death and did not want to be someone else's concubine, which was not something that was said by an emotional outburst, but a crisis she was facing.
She also saw Chen Yu, her face was shy and didn't want Chen Yu to see her embarrassment at this time, behind her, those people attracted Chen Yu's attention.
The two of them, Mourning Star and Bu Lai, were walking on the road with a big shaved pig's head, followed by the lame annoyance, and the dead who was fighting with Zhang Lixian. He carried a bamboo basket with a white cloth bag inside.
Chen Yu put down the book in his hand, and the group of miscellaneous pieces behind him found Chen Yu and stopped.
"Like a dead fish?" Not spicy to send out doubts.
Annoyed and fixed his eyes: "It's a dead fish, why is he here?" ”
"We left him in the hospital and ate the pig's brains ourselves, and he smelled and came here?"
"You think he's dog meat?" Annoying.
Walk towards the man who panicked and was discovered a little secret. Chen Yu stepped forward to hold her hand, took out the banknotes from her thin pocket, and stuffed the dozens of pieces on his body into her pocket.
Chen Yu held her hand: "Thinking about me not to die, you starve to death first." ”
"No, I still have money."
"Do you want my money?"
She blushed and nodded: "If you are a man for me, I will ask for it." ”
"Let's eat a pig's head."
"You're a pig's head." She apparently didn't react.
Chen Yu pressed her thin shoulders and twisted it, pointing to the pig's head that was being carried by the mourning star and Bu Spicy: "Eat that, don't scold people casually, it seems uneducated." ”
