Whenever Xiangyu thinks of her daughter's "father", she will feel a sense of self-blame in her heart: alas, she should not deliberately deceive the foolish "husband" who does not understand human affairs for the sake of her and her daughter's "reputation". And she felt even more sorry for the man who had been worrying about her......

When Li Dasuo received a letter from his cousin to a relative, when he looked at the handwriting on the envelope, his excited heart suddenly cooled - he thought it was written by Xiangyu. When he saw the sentence "Xiangyu is married and has recruited a son-in-law" on the letter, his head "buzzed", and suddenly the world turned: "Impossible-impossible...... impossible" - whether it was shouting in his mouth or in his heart, he himself did not know. He shouted as he ran wildly. He didn't know where he was running and where he was going. Oh, isn't this the playground behind the barracks? He ran and ran, ran like crazy, panting, sweating, his eyes blurred, and he fell to the grass by the playground. But his heart was still running wild—"Knock Knock Knock......" – and he didn't stop for a moment.

He didn't know when he suddenly remembered the unfinished letter. With mixed feelings, he pulled out the letter and looked down. When he followed "Xiangyu is already married and has recruited a son-in-law", and when he saw that "the man was a fool, stupid like an ignorant child", he himself suddenly changed from "crazy" to "stupid" - he was deeply shocked by that sentence, and he was stunned.

He himself did not know when he "woke up". He connected "didn't kill the child - recruited a son-in-law - is a fool", and shrewdly understood at once: the young heart thousands of miles away was so stubborn, stubborn that made her ...... At this moment, he felt as if he was snuggling in her arms, with his head on her chest, and heard the beating of her "dongdong" heart, which was so clear and powerful. Suddenly, he remembered the eight words he had promised her:

One expression

Proof of a lifetime

Thinking of those eight words, his eyes flashed back to the impulse he had on that day......

- His heart ached......

Li Dasuo immediately wrote a reply to his "cousin" - Xiangyu.

Xiangyu:

My cousin has already asked someone to write me a letter, and I know all about you. The "big things" you have done have shocked me so much, and it shocked me too much. What shocked me was the "big thing" itself that you had already made, and I didn't expect it from a thousand or ten thousand. Even if it were me, no one would have thought of it. What shocked me was you: you were too stubborn, you were too stubborn; You're so extraordinary, you're so extraordinary. Except for you, I'm afraid that no girl can think of it and can't do it. However, there is one thing that I can't understand: why didn't you tell me before you decided to do this "big thing" in your life and after the "big thing" has been accomplished? "Before", maybe you think that if you told me, I would never agree, but it only added to my distress, which is understandable. But "after", why don't you write to say it? Maybe you're afraid I'm upset, right? You may have two understandings of this "sadness": First, my impulsiveness has brought you endless troubles, physical and mental torture and even destruction, and I am indeed deeply uncomfortable for this. If that's what you think, you're right. If you think that I know that you are "finished", and you are sad, disappointed, or even desperate, and so sad, then you will take me for an idiot - I am still in tears for your good intentions, I am really moved by you......

Xiangyu, no matter how bitter you are, how tired you are, or how depressed you are, you have to write to me. Every time I sent a letter, I was counting the days, and on the eighth day, I began to wait for your reply. Because the letters I send out, my cousin usually receives them after four days, and it takes eight days at the shortest. But after the "eighth day", I was looking forward to disappointment day by day, do you know what my heart is like?

Xiangyu, on the "eighth day" after this letter was sent, I have to look forward to it every day. I am not only looking forward to your faith, but also to your people, waiting for your people. I may wait for you for three years, or ten years, or for a lifetime. Let's end with those eight words-

One expression

Proof of a lifetime

- Someone who will always belong to you

This time, after Xiangyu received Da Suo's letter, she immediately wrote a reply-

Big Lock:

The letter was received. In your letter, you say that I didn't tell you the "big thing" about "getting married." As soon as I think of "getting married", or when others mention "getting married", do you know what it feels like in my heart? Didn't you also say "big things" in your letter and bypass "marriage"? What do you think I should tell you? Let's just say that I am already "married" to another man, but there is really no other way, but I have to direct and act in a long play or something, what do I want now, and what will I do in the future...... Is this a confession, or is it an expression? If I confess, it is nothing more than to confess my "sincerity" to you. But does this confession work? If you already dislike me in your heart, I will write to you every day, confess every day, and "pout" all my heart, will I be able to catch your heart and not let you fly? If it is expressed, then do you still need to write a letter? Do you still have to say it? Didn't you tell me personally, it's best not to use "mouth" for expression, but to use "body" - "body". I have the baby in my belly now, and my body...... I feel like I've really "expressed" my whole body. Besides, your cousin is only five or six miles away from our house, and she often goes to your house, so she should know about our family's affairs, especially mine. The "eight words" you wrote in my notebook were like a rope that tied me firmly. In my mind now, there is a "tendon" that can't turn a corner. After all, I believe in you.

I was touched by the fact that you were looking forward to my letter every day, but you have to think about my situation. I'm going to show my stuff a day later - the child will be exposed as soon as it's born, and the time for "marriage" is there. And what kind of man this "door-to-door" is, your cousin must know. And the most terrible thing, when the time comes, those who can't stay idle will have to "find" the child's "real father"! I'm writing to you, and you're definitely going to have to reply. Your cousin often runs to Xiazhuang, although under the pretext of taking care of her uncle, she sneaks into our house as soon as she comes, and after a long time, how can she not arouse suspicion. You should write as few letters as possible in the future. In your words, put the words in your heart. I also say that it will be seen in the hearts of the people over time. The child is born, I will tell you.

Da Suo, what I admire is a big man who makes progress every day and makes progress every day, and has a sense of responsibility and achievement. A man looks forward to a woman's letter every day, and keeps his heart on a woman every day, is a little man who has no prospects!

- I hope you are the man I will always love to stand up to the sky!

It's useless to say more, and it's useless to say more.

One expression

Proof of a lifetime

- A person who does not live up to his name

Every time Xiangyu writes a letter to Da Suo, the final signature never uses "Xiangyu" or "jade". She once said to Da Suo, "My name was given by my uncle—everyone said my name was good." But what kind of 'jade' am I, it's just a rotten stone. ”

When Li Dasuo read Xiangyu's letter, he felt that Xiangyu was still the same Xiangyu who was both clever and daring to think and dare to do, but he was a strange Xiangyu: he was deeply impressed by Xiangyu's calmness and maturity, and he seemed to re-acquaint himself with an ordinary but refined "good woman" at a deeper level.

The paragraph at the end of the letter, Da Suo read it several times—it was already deeply seared in his heart. He wants to take it as a "motto" and is determined to make himself "You are the man who stands up to the sky and the earth that I will always love!" ”

On ordinary days, I always move forward day by day according to the "usualness" of the day. Xiangyu's belly also grew larger with "day by day", and finally on that day, when the child should have been born, she lost no time in descending on this person who she herself did not know that the sky was high and the earth was thick.

Their relationship seems to be "normal" with ordinary days, and there are no big ups and downs. Soon after the birth of her daughter, Xiangyu quietly sent a letter to Da Suo, and told her in the letter: "Don't reply to the letter, put joy in your heart, put "think" in your heart - "see the trees and rest assured" - forever! ”

At the end of the letter, he gave another warning: "In the future, if there is nothing particularly special, you must not write a letter." If there's something special at home, I'll write to tell you, remember! ”

Since then, there have been fewer letters from Dasuo, from one letter every month or two to one letter every three or four months or even longer. But every time I write a letter, there must be something "special" to tell Xiangyu: Da Suo worked hard to "make progress every day, make progress every day", and after the recruit training, he became a squad leader, and two years later he was promoted from deputy platoon commander to platoon commander.

When I became a platoon commander, my cousin saw Xiangyu's half-concealed expression of joy when she read the letter, and she wanted to know what Da Suo said in the letter—but it was inconvenient to ask.

Xiangyu saw her cousin's thoughts, so she pretended to be calm and perfunctory: "Da Suo is really interesting, saying that he is bitter and tired in the army, and that the more bitter and tired he is, the happier he is, because the superior likes him." Da Suo also asked about his father's health and living situation, and also asked about the study of your children, saying that when they grow up, no matter where they are, no matter what they do, they need culture, and the higher the culture, the more promising. Da Suo said that he still has time to study culture......"

"Oh, the superior likes him, maybe he can be promoted to be a cadre!" My cousin said happily.

Xiangyu smiled faintly and didn't say anything more.

This time, the shrewd cousin was a little unsure of Xiangyu's words, and vaguely felt that Xiangyu was hiding something from him that he shouldn't have hidden.

In a blink of an eye, Da Suo has been in the army for almost three years. Again, he came with letters. This time, instead of sending the letter directly to Xiangyu, the cousin ran seven or eight miles to ask her aunt and nephew to open the letter and read it to her sentence by sentence. She listened and listened, and her heart churned with thoughts: "Oh, Da Suo is now the company commander!" Listen again: "After three years in the army, I could have gone home to visit my family, but I was just promoted, and I really couldn't get out...... Strive for half a year later...... You can do our big things in your hometown or in the army......" and then listen: "Oh, I want Xiangyu to hurry up and deal with her and the fool as soon as possible...... The sooner the better......"

After the aunt and nephew finished reading the last few words, the aunt asked, "What did you say at the end, I didn't understand it, what does it mean?" ”

"Probably he and that woman have never changed their minds for the rest of their lives."

When my aunt heard this, she let out an "oh" sound, and then asked, "You just read that Dasuo became a company commander - isn't the company commander an officer?" ”

Then he asked, "What officer is under the company commander?" ”

"It's the platoon commander."

"What about the platoon commander?"

"Squad leader."

"What about the squad leader?"

"Warrior - the smallest."

"Oh, from the smallest officer, 'soldier' to 'company commander', there are several layers of space. These two 'little killers' can't imagine that they have been hiding it from me! If I had known that Da Suo had become an official and had a career, I would have ...... long ago" My aunt blushed with anger.

Next, the aunt asked her aunt and nephew to write a letter to Da Suo.

"Li Dasuo, listen to me: when I was five or six years old, my uncle took me to your house and raised me for nearly ten years before I returned to my hometown. My uncle is very kind to me. It is because of my uncle that I care about you so much. Uncle is just such a son as you. I've been hoping that you will grow up to be promising. I treat you like my own brother, but what do you treat me for? You've been promoted to company commander level by level, why didn't you tell me? Every time you write a letter to Xia Xiangyu, you care about me, but when you become an officer, did Xia Xiangyu deliberately hide it from me, or did you let her hide it from me? Are you afraid that I will ruin your business—I will do your business now......"

The aunt and nephew listened and wrote at the same time, and as he listened, he suddenly stopped listening to the pen.

"Hey, why didn't you write it?"

"Auntie, you say that...... Not so good. The aunt and nephew said.

"What's wrong, I've ruined their business, it's for the good of the big lock, it's for the good of my uncle."

"Auntie, the more I listen, the more confused I become, what kind of 'fool' is the woman mentioned in the letter, and what's going on?"

The aunt gave a general idea of the causes and consequences between "Big Lock-Xiangyu-Fool".

When my aunt and nephew heard this, she couldn't help but blurt out and ask, "Is this true or fake?!" ”

"Look, can my aunt still tell you a lie?"

"Oh, that woman named Xiangyu ......" The aunt and nephew were so moved that they didn't know what to say.

The aunt misunderstood what the aunt and nephew meant: "She wasn't a good thing in the first place......

The aunt and nephew wanted to argue with the aunt, but they were confined to the identity of the junior, and then looked at the anger on the aunt's face, thought about it, and said tactfully: "You are writing a letter to your cousin, even if you scold him, he may not listen to you." ”

"I've figured it out - there's a way to cure him. I'm not afraid that he won't listen. It's really not good, I took my uncle to the army to find him, even if I didn't go to his leader, he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to resist it......"

At the urging of the aunt, the aunt and nephew wrote the letter according to the aunt's wishes. In the letter, my cousin asked the big lock not to die and twist a tendon. said that Xiangyu and the fool have cooked raw rice and cooked rice, and they have a good life, so don't break up people again. also said that if Xiangyu and the fool really divorced and married you again, outsiders would not know, and they would say that you Li Dasuo was based on the official card for personal gain, and the official pressed the people. In short, to put it mildly, I want Dasuo to break off the relationship with Xiangyu and find another person who is a good match. In the end, he said that his uncle was old and his health was not as good as before, and he was looking forward to holding his grandson one day earlier. He wants to look at his old father's body, be a filial son, quickly restrain himself from the precipice, and change his mind.

When Da Suo received his cousin's letter, he was surprised at first, and then thought about it, and felt that his cousin had "changed his mind", which was also human nature. In the final analysis, it is my cousin's love for me, and the love is so deep. If it were someone else, even if it was a relative, he would not be like his cousin who was sad and tearful.

Da Suo wrote all his psychological words into the letter. Da Suo also said his thoughts to his cousin: "Cousin, I said a thousand things and ten thousand, I was confused when I was young and made a big mistake. Alas, if she hadn't been pregnant, if she hadn't done everything possible to keep the child in her womb, she wouldn't have recruited that fool to come to the door. She's stubborn, but I don't blame her at all. On the contrary, I loved her more deeply. Cousin, people live in the world, people live with a face, and trees live with a skin. A person's face is a person's heart. If that heart is not a 'human' heart, can that face still live in the world with dignity? Cousin, I made an agreement with her three years ago: after three years, whether I am promoted to an officer and continue to stay in the army, or I am discharged from the army as a small soldier, I will marry her. If I change my mind now and kick her away, my conscience will not be able to get over it. Besides, if she really wants to live with that fool for the rest of her life, then I will not be able to live a solid life for the rest of my life—I owe her a lot of debt of conscience. Cousin, you are a kind-hearted person and a reasonable person, and I think you will understand my suffering. At the end of the letter, another sentence was written: "Cousin, if you still can't think about it, you can write to scold me, scold me fiercely." No matter how ugly you scold, I won't be angry with you - after all, don't you feel sorry for me? ”

My cousin received a reply from Da Suo, and I really wanted to write another letter to scold him. But the aunt and nephew said: "Auntie, I think it's better for you to slow down, in case you scold him in a hurry, he will probably not let you convert in the future, in that case, you don't know anything." The key to this matter between men and women depends on the woman's end. ”

"No way, he didn't dare write directly to that woman."

The aunt and nephew said that he could do without the envelope of the army, and the address of the letter could be written in any place.

The aunt listened to her aunt and nephew's words and did not write a reply to Dasuo.

In fact, no matter how their cousin stopped them, Xiangyu and Da Suo's hearts have not changed, and they have been silently looking forward to a better future.
