What's on Jasmine's mind- My leader, my regiment follow-up

(One)

In the evening two days later, Fanla followed the dog meat to the gate of Jasmine's house.Dog Meat walked into the yard familiarly, and then "barked" twice to the room.Fanla stood at the gate of the courtyard, did not walk in easily, he was fascinated by a small wooden board hanging at the gate of the courtyard!On that piece of wood, the words "Jasmine's sewing shop" are simply written in delicate and slightly immature calligraphy.

Jasmine and the others had just had dinner, Jasmine was washing dishes in the kitchen, while Bao'er was at the desk in the back room, already starting to write calligraphy.The homework in school is quite easy for Bao'er, he never takes home homework, it is all done in school.In the evening, he usually spends it practicing calligraphy or reciting some articles I assigned to him.

Bao'er heard the commotion of the dog meat in the yard, put down her pen, and ran to the yard quickly.Gou Rou looked at him, then turned back to look at Fan La, Bao'er noticed his Teacher Meng standing at the gate of the courtyard.

"Mr. Meng, please come in! Did you come with the dog meat?" Bao'er greeted Fanla politely, with a look of confusion on his face.

"Hehe! Dog meat is not only your friend, it is also my brother, and now it lives with me. I am here to visit today. Is your mother at home? I have something to talk to her about." Annoyed As he walked in, he patted Bao'er's head and explained with a smile.

Jasmine had already come out of the kitchen at this time, she greeted Fanla with a smile, and turned to make a cup of tea.Heihu had already come to the yard to play with the dog meat; while Bao'er went back to his room and continued to write his handwriting.

Jasmine gently put the teacup on Fanla's table, and then picked up her needlework casually. She smiled apologetically at Fanla and said, "Mr. Meng, if you have any questions, please feel free to Ask. I'm used to doing the work at hand, and it's really uncomfortable not to do it, don't you mind?"

Fanla froze for a moment, then smiled, "Sister Jasmine, it's okay if you do your job. I'm here today because I want to understand something and discuss something with you." He looked at the cup Tea, carefully choosing the words.

"That's right. I came here today to find out about Yuan Silong's father. You see, his father's information was almost not filled in on the registration form. As a head teacher, I still need to come to the student's home to find out. .If students have any difficulties in life, they can also report to the school." Fanla thought for a while, and then spoke sincerely.

"Silong's father passed away a long time ago. At that time, Silong was not born. I have always brought up Silong. I was doing sewing and processing work, with the help of neighbors and big guys. These days It’s passable. Our family doesn’t have any difficulties, thank you for the school’s concern.” Jasmine lowered her head, skillfully buttonholed her clothes, and said slowly.

"Then what was Yuan Silong's father's occupation before? What did he do?" Fanla was not reconciled and continued to ask.

"He, isn't he just like me. It's just cutting and sewing." Jasmine said lightly.

"I'm afraid that the Japanese aggressors he cut out are Japanese invaders; what he stitches up is the confidence and soul that we cannon fodder have lost long ago!" Fanla looked at Jasmine and said seriously.

Jasmine lowered her head, and her hand seemed to have been pricked by a needle.She put down the clothes in her hand, stood up blankly, looked at Fanla blankly again, walked into the back room without answering his words.

Bao'er is a little kid now, and he likes to listen to grown-ups the most.He didn't write a few words, but his ears were pricked up, and he was listening attentively!

"Bao'er, it's still early in the morning, you can take the dog meat out and play with the children for a while! Come back when mother calls you!" Jasmine said softly to him.

"But mother, I just polished a pool of ink, and I'll do it when I come back." The little guy still wanted to find an excuse, and refused to go out.

"Go out, don't go too far. Silong, be good!" Jasmine insisted.

Bao'er looked at his mother's exhausted and bewildered expression, put away her determination to continue messing around, and obediently stood up.Walking to the door of the room, he looked back at his mother worriedly, and then went into the yard to greet the dog meat.

Jasmine watched Bao'er leave the yard with the dog meat and the black tiger, and then turned around, her face had regained its calm.

"Teacher Meng's words are really profound, I didn't understand." She sat down at the table and said casually.

Fanla smiled awkwardly, and then said: "Sister-in-law Jasmine, in 1944, you lived in Zenda, right?" Seeing that Jasmine nodded silently, he went on to say: "Then At that time, the Japanese army was still stationed on the west bank, and Zenda stationed many expeditionary troops, among them was the Sichuan Army Corps. Long Wenwen, the leader of the Sichuan Army Corps, is, my commander.”

The movements of Jasmine's hands slowly stopped, and she slowly raised her head.

"Captain Long, he's a character. I've heard of him." Jasmine looked at Fanla and said calmly.

"Sister Jasmine, don't get me wrong. I was Meng Fanle, the lieutenant and deputy company commander of the Sichuan Army, and also the herald, adjutant, interpreter, staff officer and follower of our regiment commander." Fanla looked into her eyes, Then he said, "I'm still his brother. I call you sister-in-law Jasmine because you are really my sister-in-law, and I still have some important things to discuss with you." Fanla said sincerely.

Jasmine looked at him, didn't speak, and waited for him to continue.

"Our Sichuan army was almost wiped out in the second battle of Nantianmen. Now Zenda, besides me, has a living brother named Dong Dao who lives in Wangdao not far from Jiqipo. In Qi Village. When we knew that the head of the group had a queen, we were very happy and fortunate. The feeling of joy is hard to describe. In short, I am very happy to be the teacher of Silong.

Two days ago, in my dream, Dong Dao and I came to Jiqipo to reunite with our dead brothers, and I also saw my regiment leader.He asked me to tell you what I discussed with him and ask for your opinion at the same time. "Fan La said here, stopped.

"Did you see him in your dream? Is he alright?" Jasmine finally spoke.

(four)

"He's fine, he's still the same as before. The only thing he cares about and worries about now is the future of you and Silong." Fanla said.

But now Jasmine's face is still full of suspicion, in order to protect Si Long's background, she doesn't dare to trust anyone easily, she is really cautious.

Fanla was a little anxious, and said again: "Do you still remember that the Sichuan Army was called the Cannon Fodder Regiment, and there was a cripple in the Cannon Fodder Regiment, who had been a deserter, and that was me! When my regiment leader needed it most , the cripple who strode away from him is me!"

Jasmine looked at him with a slightly excited expression, and said: "I remember this incident. At that time, the deserters of the Sichuan Army were caught by the patrol team led by Li Bing from the division headquarters, and they were displayed to the public for a few days. Later, I heard that He took people to rob the practice field. When the incident was reported to Master Yu, the master was furious, and immediately took people to Jiqipo to Xingshi to inquire about the crime. But the master didn't find him on Jiqipo, so he Knowing that he took people across the river to investigate privately.

This incident caused quite a stir in the division. I heard about it at the time, and I was worried about him for a while!That deserter is you, but after he came back from the West Bank, I don’t know why the teacher’s seat disappeared again, and he was not held accountable? ?That happened not long after he got the anti-aircraft artillery and the map! "Jasmine is still immersed in the memories of the past, there is happiness, pride, and sadness in her eyes.

Jasmine looked up at Fanla again, and suddenly asked eagerly: "Since you are his adjutant, then you also went to the South Heaven Gate with him, right?" Seeing Fanla nodded, she asked again: "Then he went down the Nantian Gate alive, and you were with him, right? What happened after he got down the Nantian Gate? Why did he die in the end, can you tell me? After so many years, he I have never known about this experience, and I have never been able to ask, since you are his adjutant and his brother, you must tell me!"

(Fives)

Fanla looked at her, shook his head, and gave a wry smile. He probably finally realized Jasmine's persistence and persistence.He slowly talked to Jasmine about our Nantianmen, how we spent those 38 days, how the "attack immediately stopped", how Lao Mai died, and how I was so embarrassed that I almost wanted to beat a dog.Although it was so many years ago, she still looked nervous and uneasy.When she heard what happened after we got off the Nantian Gate, her expression became even more heartbroken.

When Fanla said that I went to Milong's house to take medicine again and again, and then was dragged by him to find a place to wash my stomach again and again, she finally couldn't hold it anymore, and her tears rolled down silently , Seeing that I am heartbroken.I was so anxious on the sidelines, I cursed Fanla seventeen or eight times in my heart, but I couldn't do anything, I could only worry on the sidelines.I don't want to let Jasmine know about these painful experiences and past events. She has suffered too much for me, and I don't want these things that have passed to make her feel sad for me.

Damn Meng is annoying, why can't you be brief, can't you be vague?

I cursed bitterly in my heart, thinking that if Jasmine was asking me, I must have messed with her like Ah Yi often said, "Don't worry about it", so I wouldn't tell her the truth. Tell the truth!

While I was thinking wildly in my mind, Fanla had already talked to the end, talking about the award ceremony of Master Yu and the appearance of the military special agent.I peeked at Jasmine's face. Fortunately, she was probably numb from grief. She tried her best to restrain her emotions, and I was tired of listening to my last journey.

Annoyed finished speaking, the room was quiet, and it was Jasmine who spoke first: "Mr. Meng, the reason why your regiment leader opposed the civil war..." She couldn't continue.

"Yes, not all. I think he is more to warn us the remaining cannon fodder. He used his life to tell us not to go to such a battlefield. Therefore, Dong Dao and I, we can Come back alive." Fanla said sadly.

"Mr. Meng, thank you for telling me all this. You said just now that you have anything else to discuss with me, please tell me!" Jasmine has slowly regained her calm, or she is trying to suppress her. mood.

Fanla glanced at her, paused, and still expressed his thoughts on moving the grave, and after he finished speaking, he looked at Jasmine worriedly.

Jasmine thought for a while, then said slowly: "Mr. Meng, you are quite reasonable in thinking about this matter, and I have no objection. I also agree to write only your name on the stele, and don't write anything else. In fact, until the Now, I haven't even taken Silong to visit his father's grave, just to avoid unnecessary troubles. I'll leave this to you. Just tell me the new address after you finish it, I think Go and see him. Also, I will pay for moving the grave.”

"Sister-in-law Jasmine, after you agree to this matter, Dong Dao and I will handle it together, and there is no need to talk about fees!" Fanla stood up anxiously.

"Since you call me sister-in-law, you are acknowledging that I am his family member! You don't have to argue with me about this!" Jasmine also stood up, and smiled slightly at Fanla, her face flushed slightly. .

Fanla turned around and said goodbye to Jasmine.At the same time, I also thought of one thing, and said again: "Sister Jasmine, this Sunday, I made an appointment with my brother Dong Dao, and asked him to come to my house. He wants to see Silong. Can you let Silong come to my house?" Don't worry, we won't tell him about the past of the Sichuan Army, including the identity of his father, I know your painstaking efforts now, I think the same as you."

Jasmine smiled and nodded.Fanla said again: "Sunday morning, I will send Gou Rou to pick him up, you just need to let him go out."

"I know, let Silong go out to play when you see dog meat, this is the rule he made for me!" This time there was a hint of shyness in her smile.

It was late at night, and Bao'er was already asleep.This little guy will also snore when he is asleep now.Jasmine looked at him lovingly, then got up and took out the small mahogany box that she regarded as a treasure.She took out the stockings and soap, took a look, smiled again, and then took out the photo at the bottom and looked at it carefully.

She caressed the photo and said softly: "So I never understood why you didn't come to see me after you got off the Nantian Gate? I thought you had forgotten me in your heart. This matter has always been It's all a knot in my heart. Even if I saw you in a dream, I wanted to ask but I didn't dare to ask, and I never asked.

Today, after meeting your adjutant and herald, Mr. Meng, I found out what happened after you came down from Nantianmen.In the past, I hated you as much as I loved you. I hated you for forgetting to come and see me. I hated you for not letting me see you for the last time.But now, I know it all.What a cruel situation you faced after you got off the Nantian Gate!I really can't imagine how much pain your heart will have at that time, no wonder you will forget me.

I don't hate you now, I don't hate you anymore, I understand.You are not only my hero, but also the perfect man in my eyes.Just, when can we meet in a dream? "

She glanced at the photo again, then rested her head on her arms, closed her eyes, and a happy smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

……

How much tenderness is an inch?A thin quilt and a lonely pillow, the dream returns to the tranquility, and the dawn is drizzling and rainy.
