Flowers and dances

Chapter 47

Xi Haoze couldn't believe it, holding that photo, his eyes showed indescribable joy, looking at that photo like a treasure.To be honest, he was a little confused, so he quickly stood up and turned on the light in the living room. With the help of the bright light, he looked and looked reluctantly, the heartbreak and joy in his eyes contradictory alternately.

"Yi Feng, look, this is my son." A certain person was already immersed in the happiness he had sketched by himself.

Xu Yifeng glanced at him coldly, slandering in his heart, your wife doesn't want you anymore, so return your son? "I'm going back."

Xi Haoze didn't have time to pay attention to him at all.

The next morning, with the slight dew of dawn, he went to City X according to the address left by Xu Yifeng.Foggy, galloping all the way, finally arrived at the village at noon.The village is surrounded by green pines and the air is pleasant.He parked the car at the entrance of the village, probably because a stranger came to visit, and the dogs in the village all barked in unison.

After a while, an old man came out to take a look.Xi Haoze got off the car and walked over, "Excuse me, is there an old lady Nan living here?"

The old man squinted at the polite man in front of him, looked him up and down, and said enthusiastically, "Yes, yes, the independent bungalow at the end of the village is her home." The old man pointed in the direction.

Xi Haoze nodded, thank you.Walking over step by step, when he reached the door of Mrs. Nan's house, he stopped and watched the smoke from the kitchen drifting over the yard. Feeling inexplicably excited for a moment, he raised his hand and knocked on the iron gate.

"Who is it?" The old lady was surprised when she saw such an imposing man standing in front of her house as soon as she opened the door. She squinted her eyes and asked, "Who are you looking for?"

Xi Haoze swallowed, "Grandma, I'm here to find Chuwu."

This grandma really made the old lady have mixed feelings, and she was obviously stunned.

"Grandma, I'm here to look for Chuwu. I'm her husband, Xi Haoze." Last night he talked with Haoyue on the phone. Xi Haoyue knew that he was looking for Chuwu. Face is shameless, a strong girl is afraid of pestering her husband, Chu Wu is soft-hearted, she will forgive him anyway, Xi Haoze sneered.

The two stood at the door like this. After a while, someone from the village passed by and shouted from a distance, "The old lady has guests at home today!"

The old lady sighed and said flatly, "You come in first."

Xi Haoze immediately followed.

The old lady didn't say anything, went into the kitchen and continued to light the fire.The kitchen is small, and it still uses an earthen stove. He hasn't seen such a stove for many years.After a while, the water in the cauldron was gurgling and boiling, the old lady stood up, picked up the thermos bottle on one side, and walked over to lift the lid of the pot.

"I'll do it." Xi Haoze quickly took the water scoop on one side and filled it with water.

The old lady remained silent.After filling the water, she went back to the yard. There was a pile of wood in the corner of the yard. It was going to rain tonight, so she wanted to take advantage of today's sunny weather to quickly chop the firewood.

Seeing this scene, Xi Haoze neatly took off his windbreaker and casually put it on the steel wire beside him, rolled up his shirt sleeves. He didn't say anything at the moment, took the ax from the old lady's hand, and chopped firewood one by one. Come.

The old lady rubbed her hands, sat aside with the stool in her hand, and got busy with the needlework from the basket.

In the small courtyard, there was peace in the afternoon.Accompanied by the "crackling" chopping of firewood, occasional cock crowing and dog barking came from outside the yard.While sewing the tiger-toed shoes, the old lady looked at Xi Haoze from time to time, and slowly lowered the movements of her hands. Looking at the beads of sweat sliding down his forehead, her eyes flickered slightly, and she gradually had an idea in her heart.

After a while, she stood up and went to the room.When he came out after a while, he walked up to Xi Haoze with a glass of water, "Put it down." Passed the water to him, Xi Haoze took it, was really thirsty, and drank it all in one go.

I heard the old lady say lightly, "Xiao Wu has been here for several months, and she has never told me about you. I am thinking about what happened so that she came to me with a baby. She didn't say anything, and I didn't ask. I'm old, but I can see clearly that whatever the child has suffered, I swallow it in my heart."

"Grandma, I'm sorry." Xi Haoze said in a deep voice, his heart tightened involuntarily, with bursts of pain.

The old lady waved her hands again and again, "You don't need to tell me that." After a pause, "She went to the county hospital for an obstetric examination, you go and pick her up. This is her phone number."

Xi Haoze stared blankly at the old lady.

"Go ahead and bring her back."

Xi Haoze galloped all the way, and it took more than 40 minutes to finally reach the county seat.He hurriedly dialed the phone, but there was only the long "beep" sound in his ears, and he was so irritable that his breathing became short of breath.

After a long time, the phone was finally connected.

"Hello—Chuwu—" He eagerly called her name, and the voices over there were noisy and chaotic, "Chuwu, where are you?"

"Where are you?" He raised his voice inexplicably, feeling faintly that something bad happened.

She still didn't speak on the other end of the phone.

Xi Haoze's eyes were red, and he slammed the steering wheel violently in a hurry.

Outside the window, police cars approached like the wind, and the red police lights blared for a long time. Many people came out from the front one after another. The appearance of a certain armed police brigade in City X really made him understand that the situation might be a bit serious.

Xi Haoze got out of the car immediately and walked forward with strides. In front of him was a large department store in a small county town. At this moment, there was a crowd of people. The armed police officers formed a circle and were urgently evacuating the surrounding crowd.

Xi Haoze stepped forward and grabbed a middle-aged man who was walking over, "What happened?"

"Oh, someone robbed and took a pregnant woman hostage." The man had a frightening expression on his face.

But Xi Haoze had already been shocked by these words, as if he was dead silent, with a terrifyingly gloomy face.Rushing to the front, the armed police officers on the side hurriedly pulled him back, "Comrade, please leave immediately."

Xi Haoze pulled him away with all his strength, and took out his ID from his pocket, "I am the deputy commander of a certain army group of the army, take me to meet your captain." The armed police officers were a little surprised, and immediately took him there.

"Captain, this man wants to see you."

Xi Haoze handed over the documents, but only said, "I want to go in."

The team leader Gao Ming didn't look at the certificate, and said sharply, "No." Then he ignored him and continued to deploy.

Xi Haoze grabbed his collar, his eyes full of anger, "The person inside is my wife."

Gao Ming pulled his hand away, "Chairman, you are a soldier, we have our own rules, please cooperate." He said solemnly word by word, and then calmly shouted, "Snipers are ready."

Suddenly he said, "Chief, you should think about how to comfort your frightened wife for a while now. For the rest, please trust us."

Like a raging lion, Xi Haoze strangled his wrist, "She is my wife, I must go in and see her." His eyes insisted that they could not be ignored.

Gao Ming looked at him, and was silent for a few seconds. He said a word, "Okay!" Then the corner of his mouth slightly raised. He naturally knew Xi Haoze's ability, and his marksmanship pierced Yang.

"The culprit is a laid-off worker. His wife was hit a few days ago and her high position was paralyzed. The driver who caused the accident escaped. He is still wanted. He has violent mood swings and has now taken hostages to the rooftop. Negotiation experts are communicating with him."

Xi Haoze was listening.While putting on the bulletproof vest, his face darkened.

On the wide rooftop, the man held a gun in his hand and looked mad, "Don't come here, I'll jump down with her when I come here."

The pregnant woman whimpered pitifully and cried out in panic. The gangster wrapped her neck with his left hand and held a gun against her with his right hand.

After Xi Haoze got on the rooftop, the glare of the sun dazzled his eyes. The moment he looked at the target, he felt a joy of rebirth. Then he quickly calmed down. After investigating the environment of the rooftop, he nodded with Gao Ming.

Bright red blood has spread from the pregnant woman's feet, and the situation is urgent, aiming at it with a gun.

The gangster pulled the pregnant woman closer to the edge of the roof step by step. Xi Haoze squinted his eyes slightly, and slowly clasped his fingers inward. In an instant, the bullet shot towards the target at high speed.

The gangster was shot in the shoulder blade and screamed.The captain swooped down like a phantom and threw him to the ground.

"call the ambulance."

A heavy rock in Xi Haoze's heart finally fell.

After the scene was dealt with, the team leader walked over to Xi Haoze, and the two shook hands tacitly.

Xi Haoze touched his nose, "It's not my wife."

After a long time, such a story was circulated in the N military region, a certain regiment leader mistook his wife and bravely fought against gangsters.After dinner, for people to make fun of.

After going down, Xi Haoze took out his mobile phone, the sun finally covered the floating dark clouds, he looked up and saw a familiar figure.He rushed over and exhaled heavily, "Chuwu——"

With messy long hair on her head, Chu Wu was so frightened that she was at a loss. Standing in front of the ambulance, she was holding the pregnant woman who was kidnapped just now, crying silently, her face was pale without a trace of blood. .Unfortunately, Chuwu and Dabao's daughter-in-law just came to buy some baby care products, so they encountered this incident.

Xi Haoze took her hand, but he had mixed feelings.At that moment, he understood that in this generation, he would never let go of her hand again.

Chu Wu was crying, she was terrified.Seeing Dabao's daughter-in-law's lower body covered in blood, she didn't know what to do?Just like her at that time, the blood stimulated her stomach, and she crouched down and vomited out.

Looking at the huge belly, Xi Haoze suddenly felt heartache, as if someone had punched him hard. He was not overly happy at the moment, but worried about her body.

"Chuwu, she will be fine." He pulled her over and gently wiped the dirt around her mouth with his cuff.

The two looked at each other, and there were too many words and emotions flowing in their eyes.Chu Wu was wearing a large black back coat, and her face was much thinner than it was a few months ago.This thin body supported such a huge belly.Xi Haoze hugged her, her face was buried in his chest, her stomach was against him, the tip of his nose was filled with the familiar smell of shampoo, which made his heart gradually settle down, he licked his dry lips, and murmured, "Chuwu, I'm late."
