Gao Laosan invited Zou Jie and Xiaomei to dinner.

With Zou Jie present, she completely controlled the situation, and Gao Laosan only had the share of courtesy, and there was no room for confession.

"Thank you, Director Gao, for your hospitality, come, I'll toast you." Zou Jie picked up his wine glass.

Gao Laosan collided with Zou Jie and said to Xiaomei: "Teacher Xiaomei, I frightened you, the third brother didn't help you, I gave you a compensation, come, let's toast together." ”

Xiaomei didn't speak, looked at Zou Jie, it was not good to spoil the atmosphere, and she also raised her wine glass.

Gao Laosan took a big sip and said: "Teacher Xiaomei, your grandfather is really powerful, Director Zou may not know, I went to the county yesterday to find my uncle, my uncle said that Teacher Xiaomei's grandfather is a big hero, in the area of Changbai Mountain, one person killed more than 20 people's devil's nest." ”

"How much do you know, Xiaomei's grandfather was the regiment commander twenty years ago, if he hadn't been injured and returned to his hometown, he would at least be the commander of the military region now."

Zou Jie's words are not false, and this is indeed the case.

"That's, that's, come on, let's have a toast to the old hero."

Gao Laosan heard it clearly, he thought that he could do whatever he wanted in Lushan, a land with a radius of 100 miles, with the protection of his father's big tree, but now it seems that there are mountains outside the mountains and people outside the people. In the future, I really don't dare to make a mistake for Xiaomei, I can only outwit it, not act rashly.

Xiaomei understood that the meaning of Zou Jie's words was to make Gao Laosan have scruples. In a new society, a new country, and the people are the masters of their own affairs, why should they be more supportive? If you don't rely on your grandfather's relationship, can't you live an upright life?

Xiaomei couldn't figure it out, and she felt very uncomfortable, but she was very glad to have such a grandfather, not proud, but sad.

"Director Gao, in fact, I, Zou Jie, am very optimistic about you, although you are a bit of a ruffian, but you are righteous in your bones, I have been mixed in the bandit den in the past, and I have carried guns and fought devils with the Soviet Red Army, who has not seen it? I think you are a talent that can be created, you should take a long-term view, should not be confined to the relationship between children, we are of the same age, if you don't dislike it, in the future, I am willing to be your good friend, what ideas do you have to open your heart to tell me, I understand your heart to Xiaomei, but the twisted melon is not sweet, to put it bluntly, I am not afraid that you will be unhappy, you are just a toad who wants to eat swan meat, do you think you deserve it? Don't think that you are a character, your father does not dare to think of himself as superior, let alone you. ”

"Director Zou taught me a lesson, and I will ask Director Zou more for advice in the future." Gao Laosan was blinded by Zou Jie's bombardment.

"You seem to be a month older than me, come, let's have a glass of wine, and I will call you third brother in the future."

Zou Jie pretended to be drunk, stood up, and really wanted to have a glass of wine with Gao Laosan.

Gao Laosan was flattered, he only had to socialize, this wine made him confused, but in front of women, especially in front of a beautiful and young woman like Zou Jie, he couldn't resist any temptation.

At this meal, Zou Jie gave Gao Laosan enough face, and there was no lack of praise in his words, which made Gao Laosan very useful, especially in front of Xiaomei.

Xiaomei didn't speak, and under Zou Jie's persuasion, she drank a glass of wine and ate a few mouthfuls of food hastily.

After three rounds of drinking, Zou Jie and Gao Laosan talked very happily, just right, Zou Jie pulled Xiaomei to get up and say goodbye, this meal made Gao Laosan feel deeply honored and very face-saving.

I have to say that Zou Jie's promise to Gao Laosan to eat this meal was completely a prelude to her ambush for the next step.

Gao Laosan turned on a flashlight and sent Zou Jie and Xiaomei back to the room.

With Zou Jie by her side, Xiaomei felt much more at ease.

At night, Zou Jie and Xiaomei had a knee-to-knee conversation.

Xiaomei couldn't wait for a moment to wonder why Zou Jie treated Gao Laosan so well.

Zou Jie didn't answer the topic right away, she was in a hurry to explain the question about Xiaomei's parents.

Zou Jie explained that the working group she led, through investigation and visits, and receiving reports, did find out that many situations in Xiaomei's family were contrary to the requirements of the People's Commune, but her original intention was to make a big thing small and engage in formal criticism and education, but it backfired, what she didn't expect was that Lao Wei, who made tofu, told Xiaomei's mother to sell grain, and the matter was big, and the nature changed, and she couldn't do anything about it.

Zou Jie asked for leave to go to the provincial capital, not intentionally avoiding or avoiding.

She comforted Xiaomei and said that now it was beyond her expectations and was the best result.

Zou Jie explained a lot of truth to Xiaomei.

Xiaomei understands Zou Jie, but the mother and daughter are connected, she can't stop crying when she thinks of her mother's offense, and Zou Jie is also sad.

"This time I went to the provincial capital, and when I came back, I went to the correctional center to visit Xiaobaijia, how do you guess him?"

Zou Jie sold Guan Zi and hung Xiaomei's appetite.

"How do I guess? Say it. Mei was anxious to know.

"He has gained weight and is strong, he is very diligent in it, he treats everyone like a relative, and the discipline likes him very much." Zou Jie said with relief, "When he saw me, he was so happy, guess what he said to me first?" ”

"What are you talking about? Say it quickly. ”

"'I miss Sister Xiaomei so much, when will she come to see me?' After saying that, he wiped his tears, it seems that the relationship between the two of you is deep, and I am a little jealous. ”

When Xiaomei heard this, her heart was sour, and she also wiped her tears: "Xiaobaijia is so pitiful, I will definitely go to see him when I have time in the future, is her grandmother okay?" ”

"Fortunately, tidying up the yard and cleaning every day, how to say it, it can be regarded as a blessing in disguise, with the government taking care of it, it is much better than begging for food."

"That's great, I hope Xiaobaijia can learn in the correctional center, and come out to be a useful person to society in the future, I have confidence in him." Xiaomei was very pleased.

"Okay, let's not talk about this, I'll tell you what you want to know, this thing can only be known to the two of us, rotten in the stomach for a lifetime."

Zou Jie and Xiaomei hugged each other in the nest, and Zou Jie couldn't help but tell Xiaomei about her and He Wenduo.

He Wenduo studied in the Soviet Union in his early years, and during his studies, he fell in love with and married Yulia, a female nurse in the Soviet Union, and had a daughter.

In August 1945, because of his desire to save the country, He Wenduo entered the Northeast with the Soviet Red Army as a translator, and has been the head of the provincial foreign trade department after liberation.

For various reasons, He Wenduo and his wife Yulia have been separated from each other for many years, only exchanged letters, and never met again.

The love between He Wenduo and Zou Jie began when the Soviet Red Army entered the Northeast, Zou Jie was ravaged by bandits at that time, and was rescued by the Soviet Red Army when he was desperate in escape, and since then he has followed the Soviet Red Army to fight against the Japanese invaders.

At that time, Zou Jie received He Wenduo's care and care, and the two had a relationship because of this, and later came together.

Because it is a transnational marriage in a special era, it is difficult for He Wenduo to break off the marriage contract with Yulia and reunite.

For a long time, Zou Jie didn't care about his reputation, as long as the two loved each other, they had nothing else to ask for.

He Wenduo said in a letter to Zou Jie some time ago that he wanted to bring Yulia and her daughter to China, and he could not let the mother and daughter suffer from lovesickness alone in the Soviet Union.

Zou Jie fully understood He Wenduo's thoughts, and not only did not oppose it, but supported him to do so. However, this means that the love between her and He Wenduo needs to be broken.

After all, Zou Jie and He Wenduo have been together and loved each other for more than ten years, and they are reluctant to give up each other, but they are very helpless.

Zou Jie has a wish, she wants to have a crystallization of love with He Wenduo and have a child for each other.

This is the purpose of Zou Jie's trip to the provincial capital, of course, she didn't want He Wenduo to know, for fear that he would be distracted by it.

Zou Jie has been in the provincial capital for the past few days, and He Wenduo has been accompanying Zou Jie except for working hours.

The pain of separation, the pain of lovesickness, the long-term drought and rain, the dry firewood, the two spent a good half month together.

It's time to break up again, in addition to tears, worries and blessings, there is also a prayer that Zou Jie silently recites in his heart, hoping that God can give her a gift.

Zou Jie made such a decision not on the spur of the moment, she had already thought it through.

As a revolutionary cadre, the pressure she would face if she had children out of wedlock would be unimaginable, and she was ready to sacrifice herself for this.

After returning from the provincial capital, Zou Jie was thinking about her own future path, if everything went as he wished, she had to make a decision as soon as possible: find someone to marry.

Zou Jie didn't want to deceive others, thought about it, and knew people, only Gao Laosan was the best candidate, and he could be regarded as a good person, and no one would suffer.

Gao Laosan was married, was the same age as Zou Jie, and had been interested in her in the past and tried to pester her.

Zou Jie wants to have a showdown with Gao Laosan, seek truth from facts, take what they need, and also consider living a good life with Gao Laosan in the future.

Zou Jie weighed himself, and he could still control this merry son.

Zou Jie escaped from the capital since he was a child, wandered the streets with jugglers, and was later ravaged by bandits.

Can Gao Laosan agree?

Zou Jie knows this boy very well, he will not give up the temptation of a beautiful woman, even if it can't last long, Zou Jie also admits it, as long as there is a marriage contract, a temporary status, the future, whether to continue or divorce, everything doesn't matter.

Zou Jie told Xiaomei what he thought and discussed, and tears had blurred the eyes of the two people.

Xiaomei was dumbfounded when she heard it, she couldn't imagine that as a woman, Zou Jie would pay such a price for love. Her heart was trembling, like a knife, but after Zou Jie cried, she was very relieved, as if she had a reasonable destination in life.

"Xiaomei, do you have to thank me? You can finally get rid of him. ”

Zou Jie moved his hands and feet to Xiaomei in the bed.

Xiaomei itched uncomfortably and said, "Don't, don't, I don't want to thank you, I don't want you to practice yourself." ”

"I can live like this, it's enough to be beautiful, I don't practice myself, I can't deceive good people, right? Why don't you give me your brother? I didn't refuse to come. Zou Jie joked.

"As long as he agrees, I don't care." Xiaomei asked with concern, "Sister, I don't understand, are you sure you are pregnant?" ”

"Who can be sure of this? It's a big deal to go to the provincial capital a few more times. ”

"I hope you don't get pregnant this time, not next time, not next time, go to the provincial capital a few more times, and see your brother-in-law a few more times."

When Zou Jie heard this, he waved his fist at Xiaomei: "Don't curse you, you think I don't want to go a few more times, but when the interruption continues, there will be trouble, I can't let Wen Duo take it because I can afford it, I can't let it go." ”

"Then don't marry Gao Laosan, I'm too wronged by you, I can't accept it."

"Don't talk about him like this in the future, if he can agree, it can be regarded as helping me, he is a man, and a green hat is not easy to wear."

"There are all good men, why did you choose him?" Xiaomei was very puzzled.

"In the circle of the People's Commune, I am a revolutionary cadre, he is a cadre's son, in the eyes of others, it is reasonable to choose him, and I am not only uneasy to choose others, but outsiders will also make irresponsible remarks, besides, there is nothing wrong with me, just as I am a good person except for a scourge, especially you."

"Sister, aren't you disgusted with him? Do you know that he is not clear with Wang Xiujuan. ”

"How did I not know? Not to mention a Wang Xiujuan, it doesn't matter, just treat him as three palaces and six courtyards, I just need to be the East Palace, speaking of which, although my sister's heart is pure, but her body has long lost her chastity, people don't dislike me, you just burn high incense for me. ”

"Why is it so difficult for us women to live? Don't give birth to a woman in the next life. ”

"I can't say that, I'm me, you're you, you and Yakzi will definitely be happy, sister can only envy you, I'm no longer qualified."

The more the two sisters talked, the more they cried.
