Wei Lan stood under the pomegranate tree, looking up at the pomegranates with their mouths open, like a kitten attracted by a bird on the branch, very interested.

Yanyi bolted the courtyard door, opened the door of the main house again, put things out, rolled up his sleeves and pulled down the branches, neatly picked a big pomegranate and handed it to Wei Lan, "It should be cooked, taste it?" ”

He was still holding the branch of the pomegranate tree in his hand and did not let go, and he had the intention of picking it again.

Wei Lan explained the pomegranate and hurriedly said: "Pick this one first, and then pick it when you finish eating!" ”

"Okay."

Rinsing the pomegranate briefly, Yan Yi broke the pomegranate in half and handed it to Wei Lan.

Wei Lan stuffed the pomegranate seeds into her mouth one by one, and her teeth bited the pomegranate seeds very sweetly.

She ate the pomegranate as she walked into the house, looking around with curiosity.

The living room of the main house is not big, and the furnishings are even simpler, with a table and two chairs, and a small maza, and nothing else.

Wei Lan pursed her lips and turned her head into the left-hand room.

The room was slightly larger than the living room, with cheerful windows, thin white curtains, a bed one color lighter than army green, the same color bedding fell into tofu blocks, and even the corners of the pillow were smoothed out.

Next to the bedside table on the inside of the bed, there is also a simple hanger on which hung a white shirt and a man's uniform jacket, as well as two belts with brass metal buckles.

It is the room of Yanyi.

Wei Lan had a brief moment of tension and crampedness, turned around and retreated slightly in a panic, just in time to bump into Yanyi who followed behind.

"What's wrong?"

"No, nothing!" Wei Lan hurriedly shook his head.

It was a strange feeling, like suddenly entering a place that I shouldn't have entered, and there was an inexplicable sense of oppression.

However, it is just a room, and it is still a room that can be seen through at a glance.

Wei Lan gradually regained her composure, she was really getting more and more strange, always in this inexplicable place, giving birth to inexplicable emotions.

After looking back and making sure that it was just an ordinary room, the strange feeling in my heart gradually dissipated.

Sure enough, she thought too much.

"Your room is over here, come with me." Yan Yi took Wei Lan and went to the room on the right hand side of the living room.

It's about the same size as the room just now, but it's much more elaborately furnished.

White curtains cover most of the windows, and the sunlight is faintly scattered on them, and the room seems to be covered with a soft light.

The bedding is pink and white, the fabric is slightly reflective, shiny, Wei Lan's fingers brushed it lightly, it was very slippery and soft, it was silk.

The bedside table is lined with a lace tablecloth, a delicate white porcelain teacup, and a few books stacked on top of each other in the corners.

Did Yan Yi clean it up, or did she arrange it herself before?

Wei Lan thought hard for a moment, but didn't find any useful information in his mind.

There was also a large closet at the foot of the bed, and she walked over and opened the door, and there were several clothes inside, all bright colors, but the style was simple and immature, like a style that only a twelve or thirteen-year-old child would like.

Yan Yi stood at the door, Wei Lan looked back at him, "These are my clothes?" ”

"Yes. You used to like this style the most, so ......"

That's why I bought these.

Wei Lan caught the information in his words, frowned slightly, and asked again in confusion: "Before?" ”

"The last time we met was a few years ago, when you were thirteen years ......old," Yan Yi nodded, as if thinking of something, he looked a little apologetic, "It's that I didn't think it through, you've grown up, maybe you don't like this anymore." ”

"It's not ......" Wei Lan turned her eyes away in embarrassment and pointed to the furnishings in the room, "Then these are what I liked before?" ”

Those clothes are immature, and I can't say I don't like them, but they don't suit her after all.

The color is also, red and pink, each with its own characteristics, Wei Lan does not exclude, but he also does not like it.

She likes most of the colors that are elegant and sober, such as a faint lake blue, mint green, and some faint candy colors are also within the range of her liking, but they are very different from those in the wardrobe.

Yan Yi nodded, and Wei Lan's brows furrowed even tighter.

She looked back at Yanyi questioningly, "But...... Am I not an orphan? ”

Yanyi said that she fell from the riverbank and fell into the water, causing amnesia, and said that they had not seen each other for several years.

She can understand that she grew up in Haichang, because she had a marriage contract with Yanyi, and because she had reached the age of marriage, although she took a boat from Haishi, she fell down from the bank of the ferry because of an accident on the way......

However, she is an orphan girl.

An orphan girl who is not treated well by her family......

Where did the orphan girl come from?

If you have a family, you can't be treated, and you can still live a life of covering silk bedding and reading books to pass the time?

What's the difference between this and that young lady of a capitalist?

There are many things that Yan Yi said in her mind, most of them are about her past, but many of them are inconsistent.

In the end, which is the real one?

In the past, when interrogating prisoners, Yan Yi realized that when a person refused to confess his guilt, he would lie.

And to tell a lie, you have to use thousands of lies to make it happen.

How similar is he to those people now?

Yan Yi was silent for a moment, and his expression gradually became solemn, "Wei Lan, you are too tired today and need to rest, huh?" Obedient. ”

Wei Lan shook her head in protest, wondering even more, "Am I an orphan girl, or was I abandoned by my family?" ”

Yan Yi didn't speak, and looked at Wei Lan for a long time, from the beginning of his face to the end of his narrow and long eyes, which were complicated and ...... Pain?

At that moment, Wei Lan felt as if she had done something wrong.

What about orphan girls? What about being abandoned by your family?

The difference between this is simply that the people who are related to her in this world have changed from one to many.

But the only one who cares about her is the one in front of her.

Wei Lan lowered her eyes and looked wilted, "I'm sorry ......"

"Wei Lan, you just need to know." Yan Yi paced to her side, gently took her into his arms, and pressed his chin against the top of her hair, "I won't hurt you." ”

"In this world, only I will always protect you and never abandon you."

"You can trust me unconditionally."

As the words fell, he paused for a moment and asked, "Will you trust me?" ”

The voice above his head was low and hoarse, and his forehead and chest trembled slightly, Wei Lan nodded his head, "Hmm." ”

In this world, he is the only one who cares about her, and she doesn't want to lose this one.

It doesn't matter how it was before, it's all in the past.

She's ......

Live well in the present and live well in the future.

In the next few days, not only the county and county public security bureaus mobilized people to carry out searches, but also the public security bureaus of nearby provinces and counties, as well as some militia organizations that still existed, successively sent people to assist in the investigation.

Led by Wei Xueliang, a single team entered and exited the Seventh Brigade of the Red Flag Commune day and night to investigate the location of the attack.

The pressure on Yan Yi's body was unusually high, and because he had to follow Wei Xueliang's side to investigate, he couldn't take out the time gap to hide Wei Lan.

Worried that during his absence, Wei Lan went out or someone broke into the house, and after careful consideration, before each time he went out, Yan Yi would prepare the food and meals needed for the day, and then locked the courtyard door from the outside under Wei Lan's almost pleading gaze.

"Yanyi, don't be like this, don't ...... like this"

Yan Yi put down his things, turned around and walked out, Wei Lan trotted behind him, chasing all the way, "Don't be like this, I promise you, if I don't go out, I won't go out, don't lock the door, okay?" All right? ”

"Wei Lan, this is for your good, obedient." Yan Yi crossed the threshold, turned around and put his hand on Wei Lan's shoulder, and gently pushed the person into the courtyard, "A few more days, it won't be like this in a few days, obedient." ”

In other words, just like yesterday, the day before yesterday, and the day before yesterday, close the courtyard door.

The courtyard door was slowly pulled up by him from the outside, the gap became smaller and smaller, and Wei Lan could see less and less.

Her head buzzed, and her hand slapped the door panel violently, "Yanyi, Yanyi, don't do this to me...... Don't do that to me! ”

However, Yanyi seemed to have gone away, and there was not the slightest movement outside the door.

Even if you accept something or something you don't like, or if you are forced to accept a certain habit, you have never been so wronged as you are at this moment.

Wei Lan slowly squatted down, her heart was abnormally depressed, and she finally couldn't help crying out with a sudden "wow".

"I'm human, not ...... Pets in captivity. ”

She cried sadly in the door, but she didn't know that through the courtyard wall and the thin door panel, Yanyi's eyes were red, her back was against the door, and she took several deep breaths before suppressing the acid water gushing up from her mouth.

Just these days, only these days.

After waiting for a few days, you will definitely not be imprisoned in your freedom like now.

Yan Yi let out a deep breath and walked towards the car.

Mid-August is the hot time.

The sun scorches the earth, the golden sunflowers shine brightly, the seedlings in the farmland are tall and long, and in the emerald green ocean, occasionally three or two egrets land in it, their long chopstick-like legs are carefully moved, and their heads are stretched out to catch small insects and mud frogs in the paddy fields.

Wei Xueliang stood on the bank of the ditch, pinched his trouser legs with both hands and lifted them up gently, and bowed down to poke his head into the ditch.

His girl fell from here, when the water did not cross the water's edge, and the water rose more than four meters, so you can imagine how rapid the water was.

Once a person falls into the water, in addition to being swept away by the water, there is also a possibility that the waves of the water will crash to the bottom.

Almost instantly, Wei Xueliang made up his mind: "Find a backwater, good water, look all the way down the ditch, and when you encounter a deep ground, you should also search for the bottom of the water." ”

After speaking, Wei Xueliang turned around and walked back, only took two steps and paused to explain, "For the sake of safety, find another rope to tie to your waist, and assist two people on the shore." ”

"Yes!"

……

I've been looking for days, and there's no clue at all.

If there is no underwater, then you can almost be sure that there is nothing to be found in this place.

Wei Xueliang's throat rolled, and Xiao Su raised his head and walked in the direction of the bamboo forest.

After only a few steps, I saw the lonely people standing there on the periphery of the militia.

"Uncle ......"

Wei Xueliang lowered his eyes and didn't stop, passing by Gu Chao, he whispered, "Lan Lan lived in your house before?" Take me to see it. ”

……

Wei Xueliang entered the Gu family and looked around.

On the wall facing the main entrance of the hall is a portrait of a great man, and on the left hand against the wall is a bed made of bamboo strips and bamboo, and on the right hand against the wall is a long table with a red cloth on the table, on which is placed a television set, which is also covered with red cloth.

The house was tidy and tidy, and there were two conspicuous pieces of red cloth, which looked even more festive and lively.

Seeing Gu Chao listening at the door around the corner, Wei Xueliang walked over, "This is Lan Lan's room?" ”

"Yes." Gu Chao replied in a low voice and pushed the door open, and after Wei Xueliang entered, he stood aside and guarded silently.

Wei Xueliang stepped over the threshold and stood in the room to take a closer look.

The house is not big, but it is very bright, the window is facing the backyard, you can see the shadow of the bamboo more than ten or twenty meters away, the wind is swaying, it is very quiet.

Looking at the house again, there are a lot of wardrobes, tables, and bedside tables, and the bedding on the bed is still there, and the sheets are clean without a trace of wrinkles, and they are obviously cleaned every day.

At the long table by the window, there was also a sewing machine, Wei Xueliang paced to the table and sat down, looked at the sewing machine, and gently stroked the fuselage with his big palm, "She usually makes clothes here?" ”

"Yes." Gu Chao bowed his head, his head drooped and looked at the ground, "Sometimes I draw pictures in the courtyard while basking in the sun, and when I am satisfied, I will enter the house to choose the cloth, compare the size and cut the cloth, and choose the right line...... She always has an inexplicable drive in this matter, and she must finish all the good ideas she thinks of in one go...... After it was done, I jumped and jumped happily holding the ready-to-wear. ”

Although Gu Chao said a word, Wei Xueliang's eyes turned around the room, and everywhere he saw, he could even see the picture of his girl's activities and busyness.

After watching it for a long time, my eyes became hot, and I gradually realized in my mind that the child went from a big palm to a toddler, to school, and to go home to visit relatives after going to the countryside, holding his arm and shaking it, and shouting coquettishly to his father.

Wei Xueliang didn't dare to sit down anymore, blinked his eyes quickly, took a deep breath and stood up and walked out, "You still have grandma at home, right?" Where is it? Introduce me to it. ”

Gu Chao did not ignore the pain in Wei Xueliang's eyes.

No matter how calm and indifferent you are, people's hearts are long, and sentimentality can be hidden for a while, but not for a lifetime.

Gu Chao brought Wei Xueliang to Gu's grandmother's room again.

Gu Chaoxian knocked on the door, "Grandma." ”

There was a muffled panting sound of "hum" in the house, Gu Chao was silent, and said, "Grandma, Wei Lan's father is here." ”

The suppressed panting paused for a moment, and the old man's mute voice came, "Please...... Please come in ......"

Gu Chao opened the door and walked in front of him to clean up a serious place for Wei Xueliang to sit, but Wei Xueliang pulled him with his backhand.

The two looked at each other, Wei Xueliang's eyes were sharp and firm, "I'll say a few words to your grandmother alone." ”

Gu Chao paused, as if he realized something, his lips pursed tightly, and finally took a step back in compromise and witnessed the door being closed.

Youlan poked her head out of the room, "Brother......"

Wei Xueliang's breath was too strong, and from the moment he entered the house, Youlan entered the room and didn't dare to come out.

Now that Wei Xueliang entered Grandma Gu's house, Youlan dared to come out.

"Is it Sister Lan's father?" Youlan hugged Gu Chao's arm.

"Hmm." Gu Chao rubbed her head, "Don't be afraid, you have to call your uncle, you know." ”
