Chapter 251: Bringing the Twins to the Island 18
On the fourth day at the farm, Hua Ke took the two boys to another village to attend the market, intending to exchange more things for Hua Boxun.
The two children followed their grandfather and picked up the dried manure with him. Wen Nanzhi was so distressed that she burst into tears, "Grandpa, you are so miserable! You don't need to work here anymore, come home with me."
"Yes! Just like my mother, she goes home when she is tired and doesn't go to work."
Hua Boxun was very pleased that the two children cared about him. "Grandpa is not tired. He just picks up sheep dung balls. Others have to pick up fresh and smelly dung. Grandpa has it easier than them. Grandpa can still work. Grandpa likes to work."
His words were sincere, and the two innocent children believed him. "Whenever you don't feel like working, remember to come find us! We'll live together!"
"Grandpa, you need to come quickly."
"Okay, okay! Boomstick and Pumpkin are really sensible."
Hua Ke and his companions planned to leave the farm on the morning of the seventh day. On the afternoon of the sixth day, Hua Ke took out a life-extending medicine that looked like a piece of fruit gummy candy and planned to give it to Hua Boxun.
Before arriving at the farm, she had experimented with hair growth drugs and found that they worked. Hua Mingli and Wen Chuzhao's hair grew much thicker, and they thought that the climate and soil here were suitable for them.
Originally, she only intended to trick her younger brother, but Wen Chuzhao saw it and insisted on splitting the "candy" he had never seen before into two, and also accused Hua Ke of being biased.
"What is this, candy? Give it to the children. I'm already that old."
"A man can eat candy no matter how old he is."
Hua Ke tore open the candy wrapper and put the candy directly to Hua Boxun's mouth, "Eat it, it will make you healthy, prolong your life, bring you good fortune and luck, and make you an immortal!"
"After the founding of the People's Republic of China, you are not allowed to become a spirit. You should also be careful and don't say the last word. Trouble comes from the mouth and it has a bad influence." Hua Boxun took the candy and felt a warm current flowing through his heart. This was the kindness of his daughter, so he ate it.
"It's quite sweet. Have they tried the bombardment?"
"Not yet. I'll buy them some later."
"Are you really going to the island to join the army next month?"
"Ah."
Hua Ke smiled, "The Chinese people have great ambitions. We will go wherever the motherland needs us. We young people are the new generation of builders. Our goal is to make our motherland strong. For the new journey, we must work hard, work hard, create and innovate. We are not afraid of islands. As long as they are our territory, we must conquer them! We must let foreign races know that the Chinese nation is the bravest, strongest and most united existence on this planet. Those who offend China will be punished no matter how far away they are. If one comes, we will kill a pair. If a pair comes, we will kill their entire family."
Hua Boxun was amused by her next words, "You're already a mother, but you still don't seem to have grown up. Be serious."
"I'm serious. I'm telling the truth. Dad, you have to believe that with you and us here, no one will take away an inch of our land. Our motherland will become stronger and stronger."
Hua Ke gently hugged the father in front of her, who once fought bravely on the battlefield and now bent over to pick up manure on the farm, "Dad, you've worked hard, you have to hold on, the light will come soon, and we will take you back soon."
"Well, Dad believes what you said. But I'm still curious about what other reasons made you decide to join the army."
"Because I want Zha Pao and Nangua to feel the father's love up close. Dad, don't you think Zha Pao is too naughty? You don't know how much trouble he can cause in Hongqi Commune..."
Before she finished telling the infuriating story of the cannon explosion, Wen Nanzhi came running over panting, "Mom, my brother had a fight with Brother An'an from Grandpa Qi's family, and Brother An'an was crying so hard."
The Grandpa Qi mentioned by Wen Nanzhi is a university professor. He was sent here with his wife, his son who had returned from overseas, and his two-year-old grandson. He has a good relationship with Hua Boxun.
"Oh, he's two or three years older than me and he dares to fight. This is incredible. He's about to leave and he's still causing trouble for me. I'm not taking him home with me."
After Hua Ke took the apology and went out with her daughter to look for explosives, the cave was very quiet. Hua Boxun's eyes were sore and soon, tears dripped onto the yellow earth. He knew that there were many comrades working hard, and he believed that the country would usher in the day when order would be restored. But he was not sure if he could wait until that day.
That night, after Wen Chuzhao fell asleep, Hua Mingli confessed to his father that he wanted to join the army.
Hua Boxun opened his eyes and stared at the dark roof without responding for a long time.
Just as Hua Mingli was getting more and more uneasy, he spoke up, "You are not only my child, you are also your mother's hard-earned child, you should think more about her.
To be honest, when your eldest brother got into trouble, I often couldn't sleep, reflecting on whether I had done something wrong. I shouldn't have forced him to join the army. If it weren't for my tyranny, he might have been a knowledgeable scholar or a meticulous doctor. He would have a happy family and several lively and lovely children... It was me who harmed him. I am an incompetent father.
I am also sorry to your mother. I rarely had time to accompany her during our marriage. She has given a lot for me. She is a very good person. It is my fault. I am an unqualified husband.
"I hope you can stay by her side and take good care of her so that she doesn't have to worry too much. She has already lost a child. Do you think she can handle losing another child?"
Hua Mingli's throat rolled, and the words he wanted to say were stuck in his throat. He let his tears flow uncontrollably.
That night, the Hua family father and son did not sleep all night.
…………………………………………………………Small Long Theater
The house was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop. Outside, a gust of wind blew for no reason, making the dried corn hanging on the wall rustle.
A figure covered in blood and bruises appeared in front of the cave, walked through the wooden door and came to the kang.
"Huh? It's Ke-mei.
Kemei, why are you here? Are these two children yours? They are so cute. Kemei, you are not good. Neither of these two children looks like you. "
Wen Nanzhi felt his face was a little cold, so he pulled the quilt hard, turned over and continued to sleep.
"The little girl really looks like her uncle. You can tell at a glance that she's very smart."
Two transparent tears fell, "Our sister Ke has become a mother. Time flies by so fast. Sister Ke should be happy and not be bothered by trivial matters. She should always be bright and warm."
"My two little friends, be healthy and happy. In the next life, I want to meet you earlier."
After staying there for a few minutes, the figure walked through the earth wall and came to another cave.
"Leader, little brother? There is another comrade I don't know. Three grown men sharing one kang, do you want to squeeze in?"
Hua Boxun and Hua Mingli stared blankly into the thoughts of life.
"Leader, I came back to see you, I'm sorry I didn't make it back alive.
I just saw my mother. She kept crying after seeing me. She has aged a lot, and so have you.
Is it because of me that you two broke up? You should reconcile as soon as possible. I have advised mom, but she didn't seem to listen. She kept hugging me and crying. Well, I was crying in my dream. You were not asleep, so you naturally couldn't see me.
I'm going to be reincarnated soon. My comrades and I took the wrong path down there, and it took a long time before I had the chance to say goodbye to you. It's not that I didn't mean to see you.
What a coincidence, your three children are with you now.
Leader, your bravest child’s next journey is Beijing in 2000. I am honored to be born here. I hope we will have the chance to meet again, even though I have lost my memory.
Dad, stay healthy. There are many good days waiting for you. "
The figure looked at Hua Mingli, whose eyes were red and swollen, "Little brother, how old are you and you are still crying? Is it Ke Mei who is bullying you? She is a girl, you have to give in to her.
You have to give in. You will never be able to beat her. As a man, he who knows the times is a hero.
Now that your elder brother is not around, you should pay more attention to your parents and take good care of them. Thank you for your hard work, little man of our family.
May the rest of your life be smooth.”
"Stand at attention! At ease! Reporting to the leader, soldier Hua Shenxing is about to leave the team. The mountains and rivers remain unchanged, and we will meet again in the future!"
The figure saluted Hua Boxun and headed eastward with a determined look.
Pu Bao burst into tears, [Wow——I finally sensed Hua Ke, I finally saw her, Bai Kaishui you bastard, did you scare me, I thought I was broken, I don’t even know who to ask to fix it for me, wuwu, I’m so wronged, stinky Hua Ke, I’m crying, and she still has the nerve to sleep so soundly (＞﹏＜)]
