Chapter 84: Xu Hugen's Birth
Since Alia returned to Shanghai with Tang Yanghe, Hong Ying wanted to go to the nursery to see. The same was true this afternoon, Hong Ying went to the nursery accompanied by Ziwei. It's still early, so I came to the aid station by the way.
Another service staff at the aid station told Hong Yingdao: Mrs. Liu, Sister Huiying brought a person, who is said to be Aunt Zhen's son, to Aunt Zhen's cemetery.
Hong Ying said in surprise: Oh, there is such a thing?
While talking, I saw Huiying come back with tears on her face.
Hong Ying went up and asked: You went to Aunt Zhen's cemetery?
Huiying also choked up and said: Yes, it is Aunt Zhen's son who is here, the love between mother and son, and human nature. Take him to the cemetery. Then I went to the bathroom and washed my face and came out.
Hong Ying asked puzzled: Have you ever heard that Aunt Zhen has a son?
Hui Yingdao: I have heard that at the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner that year, your old man was also there, and Aunt Zhen said that the flood washed away her family, and Aunt Zhen was spared death by herding sheep on the mountain. A few days later, the body of his man was found decomposing in a ravine a few miles away, and his son, alive and dead, was not dead. So Aunt Zhen begged all the way to find her son, so she came here.
Hong Yingdao: Oh, I see, it's really a sin in a previous life.
Ziwei also interjected: It's possible that her son is still alive.
Huiying said again: Actually, his son has been here before.
Hong Ying asked in surprise: Oh, there is such a thing, when did you come over?
Hui Ying said again: A few years ago, the 'spear' rebelled, and his son was also a 'spear' He has been here, so I know.
As soon as she heard the word 'spear', Ziwei was angry and said angrily: 'Spear' does not have a good thing. If it weren't for the 'spear', my family wouldn't have been ruined.
Hong Ying smiled and said: "'Spear' is not necessarily all bad people, most people are forced by life.
Ziwei pouted and said: Anyway, I don't think they have a good thing, and I hate them to death.
......
Hong Ying and Ziwei return home.
Hong Ying told Liu Yong about what Aunt Zhen's son had found.
Liu Yong sighed and said: This is a blood connection! I'm going to take a look.
The sky was cloudy, thunder and lightning, and it was pouring rain.
Liu Yong held an umbrella and walked towards Fang Xiuzhen's grave step by step.
In front of Fang Xiuzhen's grave, a young man stood there in a daze, his whole body completely drenched in rain, and the rain and tears on his face were mixed together. Perhaps, this rain is the tears that God shed when he watched this young man's tragic encounter.
Xu Hugen thought that the rain had stopped, but when he looked up, it turned out that someone was holding an umbrella for him.
Liu Yong saw Xu Hugen turn around and asked: Are you her son?
Xu Hugen nodded with tears in his eyes.
Liu Yongdao: People can't be resurrected after death, even if you stand here every day, it won't help. You have to be strong, cheer up, and live well, which is the best comfort for your mother.
Xu Hugen nodded with tears in his eyes. Q: Who are you?
Liu Yong said: The contemptible Liu Yong is.
As soon as he heard that it was Liu Yong, Xu Hugen knelt on his knees. Dao: Thank you, I was worshiped by Xu Hugen. The benefactor is very gracious and virtuous, and if he does not repay in this life in the next life, he will repay him in the next life.
Liu Yongdao: Hurry up, hurry up. In life, who doesn't have times of crisis? I just did what I was supposed to do. Looking at the way you are now, what if you get sick? In this way, you go home with me first, and you can reason with me for a few days.
......
Xu Hugen returned home with Liu Yong.
Liu Yong called Hong Ying to find some clothes for Xu Hugen to take a bath and change into. I also called Ying's sister-in-law to boil some ginger soup, and let the tiger root drink it to drive away the cold. Xu Hugen felt the warmth of the world that he had never felt before.
After taking a shower and changing clothes, Xu Hugen came out with a lot of dirty clothes, and was just seen by Hong Ying, who snatched it up. Dao: Put it away, someone will wash it.
Xu Hugen stood there stupidly, and reluctantly said: Madam, that's embarrassing.
In the kitchen, Liu Yong took care of his sister-in-law and cooked a big bowl of noodles for Xu Hugen first.
Xu Hugen devoured the noodles, but could hear the conversation in the courtyard.
I only heard: "Madam, you asked me to do things, I have no doubt that I should do anything, that is, even if you asked me to wash these clothes, I am really unwilling, my family and the Taiping Army have a common enmity." ”
"Oh, I don't know how many times I've told you, most of the Taiping army are ordinary people, and they are all forced by life. If you don't wash, I'll wash it. ”
Xu Hugen burst into tears when he heard this.
......
Liu Yong asked Wang Baohe to arrange a room for Xu Hugen in the bungalow in the backyard of his house, so that he could stay temporarily and eat with some servants at home.
Xu Hugen felt that the Liu family had already spent so much effort and cost so much on his mother, and he was really embarrassed to add trouble to the Liu family again. But there is nowhere to go right now, not to mention that he is currently penniless
Every time she eats, Ziwei sees that Xu Hugen always has a stiff face, and even picks up the dishes and takes the rice bowl to eat outside. Hugen is not a fool, it's not that the owner looks down on himself, but a subordinate, looking at other people's faces all day long, this kind of taste is really not a taste. It's all strange, blame yourself for being forced by life to join the Taiping Army, and you ended up being so indifferent. On second thought, it would be better to get out of here sooner. If you have a kindness, you don't repay it, no matter what, the kindness of the Liu family is remembered, and sooner or later it will be repaid.
In the evening, Xu Hugen came to Liu Yong's study nervously, and knelt down towards Liu Yong as soon as he entered the door.
Liu Yong stood up and said: Hey, why is this? Hurry up.
Xu Hugen was still kneeling there. Dao: Thank you for your care for my mother in the past few years, and thank you for saving me when I was in danger, and I will remember this grace in my life. I can't repay it in this life, and I will repay it in the next life. I have come here to say goodbye to my benefactor.
Liu Yong stepped forward to help Xu Hugen and said: It was your mother who did something in Nanxun, and people remember her, so why do you say 'grace'. It doesn't hurt if you stay here for a few days, so where are you going, do you have any plans? Take your time and listen.
After Xu Hugen got up, he sat on the stool, lowered his head and said: In the next life, although there is no place to return for the time being, as the benefactor said, I should live a good life, and mixing up is the best consolation for my deceased father.
Liu Yongdao: Where there is a will, there is a way. Yes, a young man who doesn't have a job to do, wandering around can't solve the problem.
Xu Hugen also said: Later life has also been well-educated by the family since he was a child, and he knows how to deal with people, but only because of changes in family circumstances did he end up in such a field.
Liu Yong said: Oh, you might as well talk about it.
Hugen Dao: When I was a child, according to my father, my ancestor was Yanzhou Mansion, and my grandfather was also working in the county government, so the local area was also a large family, because my grandfather reported that some people were corrupt and bent the law, but was framed, my parents took me to Fengyang, Anhui Province, who had just turned one year old.
Liu Yong nodded slightly, and said: Oh, so that's the case, I also heard your mother say that it seems that Xiaosheng is also Zhongliang. In this way, you are temporarily doing things in my place, recently, my two sons are going to the county government to participate in the children's test, and there is no one to take care of them, so it is better for you to go with them to take care of their diet and daily life, I don't know what you think?
Xu Hugen smiled and said: Thank you for your love so much, and I Hugen is grateful. I will do my best and not be grateful to my benefactors.
Who knows that there are people listening inside the wall and outside the wall. Ziwei fetched water for Hong Ying, and happened to pass by here, and heard the old man talking to the little 'spear' in the study, so she might as well put her ear to the window and listen to a few words. Hearing that little 'spear' said that it was a person from Yanzhou Mansion, it was even more unpleasant in my heart. Originally, he hated the 'spear' to the core, who knew that he was still his fellow countryman, it was really not long-sighted, whoever got along with this kind of person was unlucky, it was better to stay away from him. The lord still has to arrange things for him to do, and this lord is really. So, he took the basin and left.
Who knew that Ziwei was carrying a basin of water, and when she turned around, she was dark and not slippery, and collided with Ying's sister-in-law, who happened to come over with a basin of water, and also scared Ying's sister-in-law. Then there was a bang, and two basins of water were poured on the ground.
A noise was heard, and at this point, the conversation stopped inside. Liu Yong came out to take a look and said: Is the person hot, be careful.
Ziwei and Sister-in-law Ying said in unison: No, no!
