Go back to the past and be a schoolboy

"Go to China? Why go to China?" Emma was very reluctant and said, "Dad, as you said before, our country is in trouble now, shouldn't we stay together and tide over the difficulties together?"

Planck looked at his daughter, then at the various documents on the table, and struggled: "But...but after all, you are my daughter. In the past few years, I must have lost a son and a daughter. Now I don't want to Lose any of you."

Emma shook her head slightly, and sat beside her father: "But am I still fine now? A little angel will come to us soon. How can we leave home at such an important moment?"

It’s okay not to mention this, but when this is mentioned, Planck’s face is not very good-looking. He raised his hand to reprimand his daughter, but found that the other party was stroking his stomach lovingly, and his arms drooped weakly: “Emma , have you forgotten your twin sister?"

Emma froze for a moment, then raised her head again with red eyes after a few seconds: "How could I forget, we grew up together, like another me, talking about everything, I will never forget her in this life .”

Planck snorted softly: "No, you are her, Margaret married that enemy, and died of dystocia not long after marriage, but you just listened to me and married the same person, which made me How to rest assured?"

Emma grabbed the corner of her clothes and persuaded: "Father, it's different, we are all for love."

The two daughters were almost carved out of the same mold. Not only did they look alike, but they were also somewhat similar to their deceased mother. At first glance, they looked like they were when they were young.

But now that the two precious daughters are about to be destroyed by the same person, it is difficult for Plank to accept.

Taking down the photo of his wife from the wall, Planck stroked it lightly in his hand, and said quietly after a while: "Love? If it's for love, then that bastard shouldn't have reached out to you, and now Where is his shadow? Why are you the only one here?"

Emma argues: "That's because he's afraid of you and knows that you don't want to see him, so he doesn't want to come here and make trouble for you."

Planck dismissed this: "If he really thought about it so much, he wouldn't let you get pregnant so soon. Even if he was not careful, he would hire at least two servants to take care of your life instead of Let you run around every day."

Emma came over and leaned on his father's back, and said softly: "Now that the country has been defeated, he has also lost his source of income, and there is a child left by his sister to support, so how can there be any money to hire servants and go out to work?" It was also my initiative."

Originally, there was still a wave of anger in my heart, but after my daughter said this, Plank's heart completely softened.

Looking at the photos of his deceased wife, it seems to be telling him that when he was young, he relied on his handsome appearance and lingered among the flowers, so he became a responsible and good father after marriage.

But when he thought about his eldest daughter again, Plank calmed down again: "Hmph, is that kid just outside?"

Emma immediately said happily: "Dad, are you willing to see him?"

Plank hung the photo of his dead wife back on the wall, and said with a blank expression: "I never said that."

Emma didn't want to care so much, she kissed her father on the cheek, and ran out quickly, for fear that her father would regret it: "Hey, dear father, I'll go and call him over."

It is said that the daughter is the father's little padded jacket, but now it seems that Emma's little padded jacket has air leaks everywhere, and it can't keep out the cold at all.

Looking at Emma's cheerful back, Plank murmured in his heart: "I really owed this son-in-law in my previous life, but I have two daughters in this life. Sigh, it's really not good for girls."

But he obviously didn't want to say this. Seeing that his daughter's steps were a little unsteady, Plank hurried forward to help him: "Run slowly, you still have one in your stomach, you are not a little girl anymore. .”

The old man's dog, my uncle's good friend.

As the son-in-law of the Planck family, Hans didn't think this sentence made sense at first, but now that he married his sister-in-law, when he came to the father-in-law's house again, he was trembling, and he would never dare to enter the house, even though There was a fire burning, but it seemed to him colder than outside.

But after seeing off his wife, he didn't dare to leave directly. After all, his wife is also pregnant now, and he can't stand any mistakes, and he won't forgive himself.

Bored, he looked at the puppy in the kennel so kindly, and his appearance was much more pleasing to the eye, and he was so happy to play with the puppy.

"Baloo, I haven't seen you for so long, how are you, honestly, how many bitches have you fiddled with?"

The dog named Balu was quite spiritual, and barked three times after hearing this.

"Oh, God, you're really good." Hans groaned strangely, squatted down and said, "But if you want to be a good dog, you can't be too hardworking. You have to take care of the puppies. Do you understand it?"

It doesn't matter whether the dog understands these words or not, Hans said persistently. At first, the dog wagged its tail excitedly, but in the end, an anthropomorphic disgust appeared on its face, and it bared its teeth several times.

Fortunately, Emma came in time, and wondered to this side: "Hans?! What are you doing?"

"Oh, Emma, ​​why did you come out?" Rubbing the dog's head, Hans trotted over quickly: "Just played with Baloo for a while, you finished talking with Dad, is it time for us to go home?"

"Well, come back to the house with me first." Emma said softly.

"Okay, let's go in now... huh?" Before he agreed for a long time, Hans immediately came to his senses, hesitantly supported his wife's waist, and said, "You didn't say anything wrong just now? Did you let me in?"

"That's right, Dad let you in, and I want to tell you something." Emma raised her head, and couldn't hide her excitement in her tone.

Hans regretted it a little at this time. If he had been able to calmly face Planck before, but since his wife died in dystocia, he felt guilty facing his father-in-law, and married his sister-in-law again, which made him feel even more guilty.

Now let yourself into the house, it is better to stay with the dog.

But looking at the joy on his wife Emma's face, Hans really couldn't bear to be hit. After hesitating for a while, he clenched his fist: "Okay, I promise you."

At this time, the dog wagged its tail again, stretched out its tongue and followed behind, barking in its mouth, not knowing what to express.

What Hans didn't expect was that he was hardly given much time for mental construction. The first thing he saw when he opened the door was Planck, staring at him coldly.

"Dad... Dad, are you cold?"

"Humph!"

Apart from the cold snort, Plank didn't want to waste any more saliva.

Feeling the embarrassment of the atmosphere, Emma hurriedly came forward to resolve it: "Dad, you just promised me, don't do this, okay?"

Plankton felt helpless, the fortress he had just built was disintegrated by his own people, he shook his head and walked inside with his back on his back.

"Come in, I have something to say to you."

The tension in Hans' heart suddenly relaxed a lot. After sending a thankful look to his wife, he hurriedly followed behind.

After the episode, Emma was in the middle to mediate, and the relationship between Weng and his son-in-law eased a lot, but the progress was still relatively limited.

"Hans, before you came here, I discussed something with Emma, ​​but Emma didn't agree directly, and wanted to hear your opinion first." Plank said in a deep voice.

"If you have anything to do, you and Emma can decide. I just need to take care of her." Hans said quickly.

Emma was a little flustered, and quickly grabbed her husband's hand: "Hans, this matter is not that simple, it concerns you and me, and it also concerns our future child."

Hanston was taken aback for a moment, unsure: "The child? How could it be related to the child?"

There is no plan to speak to her daughter again, Plank stood up and said: "Actually, this matter is very simple. I want to take Emma to China for a period of time to help her go through the whole childbirth stage smoothly."

"Dad, this...why didn't you tell me this in advance." Hans couldn't sit still, he stood up and raised his voice: "China is so far away, we don't know anything about it."

Plank frowned, "So you're not going to agree?"

Hans pursed his lips again and again, unable to give a clear answer for a long time.

However, from the expression on his face, it can be judged that he obviously does not agree with the suggestion of going to China.

Planck just glanced at it, then retracted it immediately, and asked in a cold voice: "Hans, have you forgotten Margaret?"

"I... I haven't forgotten, and I dare not forget."

"Okay, then let me ask you again, did you do your duty as a husband during Margaret's pregnancy?"

"not good enough."

"Very well, you agreed very happily. If Emma also suffers from dystocia, what can you do as a husband?"

"No, there will be no dystocia again, and the tragedy will never happen again."

"Why are you so sure? Do you still want to gamble with my daughter's life? To tell you the truth, Emma's current pregnancy reactions are almost exactly the same as her sister's. Aren't you afraid of unexpected visits again?!"

"I...I don't know..."

After a series of questioning, Planck forced his son-in-law Hans to retreat steadily, and finally slumped on the seat, holding his head in his hands and his face full of pain.

"I don't know, I really don't know."

Planck's face was as frosty. If it weren't for his daughter's face, he would have slammed the door and left. He sighed and sat slowly in front of his son-in-law: "I have an old friend in China, and he told me that there is a school in China. Inheriting the medical skills of the previous year, in some respects it is better than the current Western medicine, do you understand what I mean, Hans!"

Hans raised his messy hair: "Can you help Emma?"

Planck nodded, and said: "You can find specialized talents before, during and after childbirth, and I got a new vocabulary from my Chinese friend called 'confinement', with Margaret's lesson, I really can’t believe in Western medicine.”

Although the inside and outside words are very touching, Hans still has some thoughts of his own: "But that is China after all."

"What happened to China? If our European culture was as advanced as we imagined at the beginning, such a tragic war would not have broken out, and so many young people would not have died in vain on the battlefield." Plank blowing his beard , furiously said: "Now we should learn from China's Confucianism, peace is the most important!"

It is well known that every era exists in every country, especially now that Germany is about to face huge war reparations, which naturally aroused the reflection of many Germans.

Confucius and Mencius thought, which has been passed down in China for thousands of years, gradually appeared in front of some Germans. Although it did not play much obvious role, it was enough to make these people interested in Chinese culture and even change some outdated views.

Seeing that Hans was still a little unconvinced, Plank couldn't help but say annoyedly: "Hans, don't forget what you promised me when you married my little daughter, take good care of her. Is this how you take care of her?"

Hans blushed and couldn't say anything after holding back for a long time.

Emma couldn't stand it anymore, and took the initiative to make a rescue by holding her husband's hand: "Dad, Hans is still very good to me, and now I basically stay at home. He leaves early and returns late to earn money, and is taking care of him to the greatest extent. I."

Plank glared at his daughter, and said loudly: "How can this be possible? You have a big belly now, in case something happens at home, who will come forward to help you in time?"

As soon as the words fell, they fell silently, and the daughter and son-in-law were speechless.

After a while, Hans finally said: "Father, I promise you that I will let Emma go to China, but I am still not relieved, and I want to hire an excellent doctor of western medicine to go there at the same time. If you can agree to this request, then I will let the rest of us Nothing to say."

Planck's frown slowly eased, but he still deliberately put pressure on his face: "My daughter, I will naturally be fully prepared this time. You can rest assured that there are not only excellent Chinese medicine practitioners in China, but also excellent Chinese medicine practitioners. I can feel at ease with Emma when the two groups work together to provide advanced western medicine."

As he spoke, he handed over the drafted plan.

Seeing the detailed plans above, Hans was completely speechless, and finally stood up and promised again and again, saying that he would definitely earn money in Germany so that Emma could receive the best treatment.

But at this time, Planck was not very happy: "Don't you stay in the country and go to China with us?"

Hans was puzzled: "Ah? Why?"

Planck said angrily: "You still ask me why? My wife gave birth in a foreign country. Shouldn't you be a husband to protect her? You can find a job wherever you go,"

"But……"

"There aren't that many, but hurry up and go home and pack your things, the person who picks you up will be here soon."

"And you, you daughter, don't torture your father anymore, I don't want to experience a white-haired man sending a black-haired man again!"

A gust of wind blew by, and the snow on the cypress tree rustled and hit the dog. It was suddenly shivering from the cold, and finally changed its position and continued to sleep on the dog's kennel.

Not far away, a group of people were stepping on the thick snow.

"How far is it to Planck's house?"

"My lord, we'll be there soon, the one with the dog on the front is." (End of this chapter)
