Chapter 21

How can a healthy and strong person be dying? !Gui Zhi's soul flew away!The spirit is gone!I can't wait to fly to Guishan.She was no longer in the mood to work, and said hello to her mother-in-law and hurried to the train station to buy a ticket.

In the evening, she took out the telegram and looked at it carefully under the oil lamp, staring at the telegram in a daze, could it be that Fang Qing him? !At this moment, she tried her best to restrain her thoughts from thinking too much, and spit on the ground three times, fearing that one thought would become a prophecy.When I was in a state of confusion, I began to use verbal chatter to comfort myself: "dangerous" means "dangerous", critically ill means that it is more dangerous to be sick, and dangerous means that it may endanger life.But "possible" is different from "completely", just like taking a bath in the river, there are unsafe factors, but it does not mean that all are unsafe.The only thought in her heart was "Fang Qing is fine, Fang Qing will be fine." With this thought and the exhaustion of the day, she fell asleep in a daze.

Suddenly, there was a voice "I can't go, I don't want to go" Guizhi sat up abruptly, she woke up from a light dream, touched her chest in a daze for a while, in a trance, she recalled the origin of the sound, it didn't feel like a nightmare, It's like a voice whispering, very close and far away, very strong and very weak.In the dark, she touched the matches, lit the oil lamp, looked at her two daughters who were still sleeping soundly on the same bed, and thought: Could it be that someone was talking in the courtyard?She put on her clothes and got out of bed, checked it out, opened the door latch, a gust of cool wind squeezed in through the crack of the door, she instinctively wrapped her coat tightly, and then she pushed the damper door, the oncoming cold wind bumped into her arms , The oil lamp in the kiln went out with a "huh", Guizhi shuddered, suddenly felt creepy, and an ominous omen was born.

The courtyard is pitch black, in the bleak wind, the branches are mixed with dry leaves, rising and falling with the wind, falling and rising again, rustling, is it a dream?Is it phantom?Is it a nightmare?or something else!Gui Zhi didn't know, she returned in doubt.Being bold by nature, she was also a little scared. She barely lit the oil lamp with trembling hands, and got into the bed in shock. After lying down, she seemed to think of something again. It was half past eleven at night.

Guizhi tossed and couldn't sleep, and the past flooded her mind.

Last time, after dinner the day before Fang Qing left, Fang Jie snuggled up to her mother and cried, Gui Zhi saw Fang Jie crying inexplicably, so she quickly took Fang Jie into her arms and asked what was wrong?Fang Jie buried her face in her mother's arms and rubbed hard, crying and saying, "I don't want Dad to go!"

Guizhi and Fang Qing looked at each other and smiled, thinking that their daughter had grown up and become more sensible, but they were a little surprised after being pleasantly surprised, because usually Fang Jie never clings to her father.In the morning, Guizhi was feeding the chickens in the yard. Fang Jie came to say that she wanted to eat the milk candy her father brought back.Guizhi knew that Fang Jie was afraid of her father, so she deliberately said: If you want to eat, ask your father to go.Fang Jie didn't dare to ask for it, but wanted to eat, so she hesitated for a while and ran to the kiln door to find her father.

Fang Qing saw his daughter rushing towards him and shouted, "Come on, tell Dad what you want."

Fang Jie was frightened when she saw her father's calm and prestige face, she turned her head and ran to hug her mother's leg.Another reason why Fang Jie, who is timid by nature, is afraid of her father is that the father and daughter don't see each other a few times, and they always feel that they are different.

Fang Qing was very happy, because his daughter finally knew that she had kissed her father, and he lovingly hugged the tearful Fang Jie while wiping away tears and said, "Don't cry, good boy, Dad will be back by the Spring Festival, soon! "

It's okay not to say it, but when she said it, Fang Jie cried even harder. She kicked and cried in her father's arms: "No, father is lying! You are not coming back! Woohoo..." There seemed to be 1 people in her heart. A grievance needs to be expressed.

That night, Fang Jie was uncharacteristically insisting that her father sleep with her under the quilt, hugging her father's neck tightly, and asking him to tell her a story.Said in the raving: "Dad, I won't let you go, Dad, I don't want you to go."

Thinking about Gui Zhi's heart tightened even more, she pulled the quilt up and let out a long breath, and suddenly thought of another dream.
