Age of Rebirth

In the living room of the Tang mansion, the old folks from the Tang family's nest shop in the northeast were talking and laughing freely. Because of Tang Qiuli's sudden return, the atmosphere became a little more solemn and polite. What kind of identity was the person bowing to him in front of him? In ancient times, it was "one character shoulder to shoulder with the king," a person who is almost equal to the emperor, bowing to us, wouldn't it be a big guy?

The villagers returned the salute politely and with a little trepidation, each and every one of the familiar faces had a respectful look, but their eyes kept drifting to Mei Xue and Liu Xinlan behind him, Mei Xue, everyone was familiar with it, Qiuli’s first The two daughters-in-law, I met them both when they got married, and they even filled the big guy with wine. If you want to say that the two girls from Laomei’s family really have vision, married to such an all-powerful man, they are almost like a noble concubine. , the blessing of this life!

But why is the girl next to him Xiaoling from the old Zhang family?I grew up in a village and watched them grow up. I couldn’t be more familiar with them. They have the same eyebrows and expressions. Forced to jump off a cliff?Could it be that he wasn't dead and was brought back by Qiuli? It's not right. I saw Brother Zhang two days ago. Why didn't I hear him mention it?

The villagers are confused, their minds are full of question marks, and their mouths are socializing. They can't leave Liu Xinlan's eyes. Seeing Liu Xinlan's feet fluttering, her face is burning like fire, and she is a little dizzy. You guys, you are so enthusiastic, you can't hide it!" Liu Xinlan murmured to herself.

Liu Xinlan is also a smart girl. From the eyes of the villagers, she can read a lot of complicated content, including surprise, doubt, disbelief, regret and searching. Liu Xinlan is sensitively aware that the eyes of the villagers .Not only because he was suddenly brought back by Qiuli, but also had other meanings.

Suddenly, Liu Xinlan's heart moved, and she remembered some things she vaguely knew, "Could it be that I am really so similar to that girl who is deeply hidden in Qiuli's heart, who has worked hard and never forgotten?"

"Otherwise, it's impossible to explain the strange gazes of these folks, and the momentary loss of consciousness of Qiuli's mother, all of which illustrate a real problem. Could it be that I am really the shadow this man is looking for, or a substitute? , to replace the girl in his heart?" Thinking of this.Liu Xinlan's heart.I couldn't help being miserable, everything in front of me lost its brilliance, and became strange, bitter tears flowed into the depths of my heart.The smile on his face stiffened a bit.

Regarding Xiaoling's story, Liu Xinlan only knew a little bit, not much, and she didn't think much about it herself.Tang Qiuli also intentionally avoided this question, and never mentioned it to himself. Regarding her matter, he always thought that he was Liu Xinlan, not other girls, and would use his own image to be engraved deep in the heart of the man he loved deeply. , Now it seems that I am a little deceiving myself!

The eyes of the folks are not the biggest blow, but the biggest blow is to find out that you have made a mistake, a serious mistake, and an irreparable mistake.

Mei Xue, who has a delicate mind, is sensitive to Liu Xinlan's strangeness. She knows Xiaoling's story much more than Liu Xinlan's. Seeing the eyes of the villagers, she can't stop looking at Liu Xinlan. He calmly supported the crumbling Liu Xinlan, squeezed her arm, shook his head slightly, and said apologetically to the villagers: "Elders, I'm sorry, my sister Xinlan and I sat on the plane all day, and my health Some people can't take it anymore, so go ahead and take a rest, Qiuli will accompany everyone!"

Mei Xue is smart, she knows very well that in this atmosphere, if she doesn't take Liu Xinlan away quickly, this girl might faint on the ground, look at her little face turned pale, Mei Xue turned around cleverly, without showing a single flaw , pulled Liu Xinlan into the bedroom.

Tang Qiuli didn't notice Liu Xinlan's, his emotions were completely immersed in the atmosphere of the country accent and the country feeling. He felt that he couldn't bear the kind words of the villagers, but his gratitude to the villagers came from his own heart. heart.

In a sense, although the living conditions of the folks in Tangjia Wopu in the Northeast are many times better than those in the Northeast, the fundamental reason is that they have left their hometowns and left their hometowns where their ancestors have lived for several generations. , It was because of myself that I pulled up the bloody hand group in the Northeast, and suffered crazy revenge from the Kwantung Army. I had to withdraw to Dingbian as a last resort. As the saying goes, "It's hard to leave the homeland!" Especially for farmers.

At the beginning, for the safe evacuation of the people in this village, I didn't know how much brains I used, and dispatched Qiuquan's special operations detachment, as well as the newly formed air team. Withdraw from the northeast.

Not only did they donate their children without hesitation, they followed them to fight the Japanese. The original 56 members were the starting members of the Bloody Hands, and they also paid the price of leaving their hometown. The folks at Jiawopu, in addition to deep gratitude, also have deeper guilt and apology. No matter how respectful they are, they can't make up for it too much!

At this time, the second uncle came forward, stretched out his big hand like a cattail leaf fan, and slapped Tang Qiuli on the shoulder as usual, and said boldly: "Okay, Xiaoqiu, you are from the village, big fellow!" Don't see it, you don't have to deal with these vulgar rituals, everyone is uncomfortable, besides, your status is different now, we can't afford it!"

The second uncle's body became stronger and stronger, his face was full of red, and it was obvious that Dingbian's life was very satisfactory. Tang Qiuli looked at his own second uncle and said solemnly: "Second uncle, it's not like that, just rely on Tang The folks at Jiawopu, the kindness to me Tang Qiuli, everyone can afford my bow and respect. Without your support and entrusting your children to me, there is no Tang Qiuli today, no matter whether Qiuli is here No matter what kind of high position, you can't forget the kindness of the folks!"

"But I'm sorry folks. After the war, I can't bring back all my companions who went up the mountain with me. Please rest assured, folks, I, Tang Qiuli, will take care of your retirement! I will do my best as a son-in-law," the words earnestly , without falsehood, every word is like a cuckoo weeping blood, with heart-piercing pain and loss.

As he spoke, Tang Qiuli's voice was a little choked up, and tears of relief welled up in the eyes of the villagers. The atmosphere was a bit heavy and sad. Those folks whose sons and daughters died on the battlefield couldn't help but sigh when they thought of the sadness .

It was the father who saw that the mood in the living room was not right, stood up quickly, and said in a loud voice: "What's the matter? Xiaoqiu and you too, what are you doing talking about those old sesame seeds and rotten millet? What are you guys doing today?" What's going on, pork sauerkraut is stewed in the pot, and it's open! I have nothing to do, and I brewed a few small pots at home, sixty degrees, real grain wine, and I'm going to lie down and go back tonight!"

After father's words, the atmosphere in the living room changed, and the villagers all laughed. Shanhu's father, Mr. Huang, was one of the few people who could stand calmly in front of Tang Qiuli. He was a hearty gentleman. He said with a smile: "You Boss Tang's wine-making skills are tens of miles away from your hometown. I don't know that! I think of wine bugs, by the way, Xiaoqiu, my bastard, come back with you Yet?"

Tang Qiuli said with a smile: "Uncle Huang, we've been together all day, and I'm back. Can Huzi not come back? I didn't know you were here, but I forced you to go home. I'll give him a call right away." Make a phone call, pork stewed with sauerkraut, Huzi is most proud of this mouthful!"

The father interfaced: "Brother Huang, let's not worry about young people's affairs. Don't you think about my food and cooking? I will let you drink enough today. Wait a little longer, and there will be old Zhang and his wife." I and a few old buddies haven't arrived yet, and we're all here, so let's start the banquet!"

While talking, the nannies were busy setting up tables and stools. Seeing Tang Qiuli groping around, she knew what he was thinking, so she pulled him aside and said, "Looking for Xiaoting and Jialin?"

"Why haven't we seen their mother and daughter for a long time?" Tang Qiuli nodded and said.

The mother said: "Your father knows that there are guests today, and the noisy ones are still smoking dry tobacco. He is afraid of smoking the baby's pimples, so he has already sent them to your father-in-law's house. It just so happens that the in-laws will come to pick up the two of them to go back to celebrate the new year. Make a call later!"

Then, the mother said mysteriously: "Stinky boy, what's the matter with that girl surnamed Liu? I looked at it as Xiaoling. Is there really someone who is exactly the same in this world? No, I have to ask later! This matter is revealed. With evil nature!"

Tang Qiuli was taken aback, and hurriedly grabbed his mother, "Mom—don't ask, anyway, I will stay at home for a while, and I will tell you in detail later, there are so many guests at home, it will take a while Can't tell."

The mother gave Tang Qiuli a hard look, and said, "Okay, let's chat with each other later, you go in and have a look, the girl's face is not right, I don't look like she is tired from flying, I'm afraid she is. If you have something on your mind, you may not be used to it here. A big girl will come back with you all the way. Don’t wrong her, let alone bully her. If you let me know, you are not good to other girls, look at me How to deal with you!"

"Successful success!" Tang Qiuli nodded like a chicken rattling rice, hastily agreed, with an attitude of humbly accepting.

"You, you two are beautiful daughters-in-law, why are you still looking for them outside? I'm not afraid that Xiaoting and Xiaoxue will be angry. They both said that they couldn't help their mothers, but they really came here," the mother continued nagging, with a look of hatred. Iron not steel posture.

"Old woman, why are you dawdling? Don't let the big guy sit down!" Over there, the father shouted loudly.

"Here we come!" Mother promised, and before she left, she pointed Tang Qiuli's forehead and let out a threatening "hum".

Tang Qiuli took the opportunity to go to the bedroom, still wondering what her mother said just now, what could be on Liu Xinlan's mind?
