The fifth day of the third month is the day of the tomb pilgrimage. At that time the moon was still in the shape of a crescent.
However, the sky was slightly different from the sky that had always been foggy in later generations.
When Jiang Zhou looked up, the sky was filled with stars, in the dark night.
So pretty.
Liu Mengli, who had finished his homework, walked out of the room holding something in his hand. He sat beside Jiang zhou.
She was wearing a white linen cotton dress.
He also wore a sweater filled with patches outside of it.
His black hair was on his shoulders.
Under the starlight, Liu mengli's half-covered face, looked extremely beautiful and unreal.
Liu Mengli sat next to him Jiang Zhou.
Jiang Zhou realized that Liu Mengli was holding a harmonica in his hand.
The harmonica shape is short, palm-sized, zambrud-green color windhole, and coated in a beautiful stainless steel frame on the outside.
The harmonica is neatly wrapped with a handkerchief outside.
Liu Mengli looked at Jiang Zhou who was looking towards him.
Liu Mengli's entire body immediately stiffened without realizing it.
Liu Mengli was silent for a moment, but his eyes were a little panicked.
He quickly explained: “I don't want to take it, I just want to see it.”
Jiang zhou looked at the slightly panicked look on Liu Mengli's face.
He just wanted to ask.
in mind.
Suddenly the pieces of past memories began to overflow.
Jiang zhou stiffened immediately.
It seemed like he had once played a hand against Liu Mengli.
because of this harmonica.
Liu Mengli was a learned young man who went to the countryside, who looked very dignified and arrogant
From the city of Shanghai moved to this small and remote village of liqi, then, unknowingly, they both had children.
Liu Mengli was also trying to improve himself in order to blend into rural life.
But he will always remember his past.
After marrying Jiang Zhou.
The most precious thing to Liu Mengli was this harmonica.
It was the instrument he mastered the most when he was a child.
When he went to the countryside, he brought nothing but this harmonica.
When Liu Mengli felt his life was difficult and sad he always played this harmonica.
The song he played on average was the soviet minor key.
The song is indeed very suitable for educated young people to vent their emotions.
Jiang zhou saw it.
He even thought that Liu was humbling himself.
Humiliating their villagers, and deliberately flaunting them just because he was disgusted and disliked at Jiang zhou
Then...
Jiang zhou immediately gave a loud slap to Liu mengli who was pregnant at that moment.
Jiang zhou shattered his hopes
Even Liu mengli's smallest hope was destroyed by Jiang zhou
Today, Liu Mengli did not know why.
Suddenly, his emotions soared greatly.
He had even forgotten that Jiang Zhou had once slapped him because of this harmonica.
Now he was even pulling out his harmonica in front of Jiang Zhou!
In Liu mengli's heart, he suddenly felt terrified.
He immediately bent his body spontaneously, and hid his harmony in his arms.
"You don't get mad, I won't blow it, now I put it back."
After he finished saying, he hurried to his feet, He wants to keep his harmonica back in the box.
Liu Mengli was terrified
He was afraid of Jiangzhou, who used to be his nightmare back again.
Liu mengli feared that the life expectancy that he had been searching for hard, would be destroyed again.
However,
as Liu Mengli stood up and passed by Jiang Zhou,
suddenly a hand gently grabbed the edge of his shirt.
"Wait a minute."
It was Jiang Zhou voice.
At this moment, Liu Mengli felt as if he had fallen into an ice cave.
He clearly heard the sound of something breaking his mind.
“Come here."
JiangZhou sighed then said.
He could feel Liu Mengli's stiff body and terrified expression for a moment.
Once knowing the cause was himself, Jiang zhou immediately cursed himself the bastard inwardly.
Liu Mengli's body froze and did not dare to move at all.
He felt his legs were too heavy to step on.
However,
Liu took a deep breath, hugged his harmonica tightly in his grasp, gritted his teeth and said "If you want to hit, hit it. But I'm asking you one thing"
“Don't let the kids see it. ”
Jiang Zhou heart felt a great pain.
“I'm sorry. "
Said Jiang zhou.
"I apologize to you, if you feel that you are still not enough, you can also slap me back, just think of it as a reward for my actions first."
Jiang Zhou's voice sounded low and sincere.
Liu Mengli was surprised for a moment.
He widened his eyes and looked at Jiang zhou with a surprised face.
“What did you say?”
Liu mengli's voice sounded a little trembling.
He looked towards Jiangzhou.
"Are you... Are you apologizing?"
Jiang Zhou nodded.
"I'm not a good man, because I feel inferior and have no ability, so I always look for trouble with you."
"But now that I understand, my wife is so beautiful and good at playing the harmonica. Let alone the village of liqi even the city and kabupaen, I will also not find a wife like you anymore."
Jiang Zhou looked at him.
He said with a serious face: "Mengli, can you play it again for me? Just play the Soviet song you played when you first met you. "
Liu Mengli's tears suddenly fell down profusely.
This...
For the first time, he felt respected.
Jiang Zhou held Liu mengli's hand, and they sat on the stairs at the door.
Liu mengli took out the harmonica from inside his wound carefully.
As if he could not believe it, Liu Mengli turned his head and looked at Jiang Zhou again.
“Do you really want to listen?”
Jiang Zhou nodded.
"Hawthorn Tree,"
Jiang zhou smiled widely.
The song continues to spin many times in his dream, after his wife took his children to suicide.
Liu Mengli turned his gaze.
He lowered his head, looking as shiny as his harmonica. Then, raised and placed the harmonica on his lips lightly.
The melody is beautiful.
The melody he played, bit by bit reminded the melody back in his memory.
He was 17 years old then.
Jiang Zhou joined his parents working in the fields.
while harvesting the rice, his hands and body were filled with mud
While resting in the fields while waiting for lunch, Jiang zhou heard a faint melody voice that he had never heard before.
He's passing through the hill.
I saw a grain-drying field under the hillside.
Next to the tall pile of wheat, there was a girl sitting cross-legged there.
Her black hair was long braided, her face looked extremely beautiful.
The girl's clothes were shabby, but she had never seen such an authoritative and arrogant girl.
Compared to her who was filled with this sludge and pitiful.
their differences are very contrasting.
"Liu Mengli! Comehere! "
He hid behind a tree and heard someone calling his name.
Liu Mengli's.
This name sounds really good.
……………
When he finished thinking about the memories first
The song "Hawthorn Tree" has also been completed.
Liu Mengli was silent.
Jiang Zhou regained his senses, then smiled at him.
“very melodious,”
he thumbs up.
Liu Mengli also pursed his lips and smiled in relief.
“Thank you.”
Liu Mengli stood up and returned his harmonica into the room.
He had only walked a few steps, stopped immediately, turned his head, and said to Jiang zhou.
“Don't forget to come to the room later.”
“Hah?”
“You.”
Liu Mengli explained “In the afternoon, you said you would replace it after you finished picking mugwort leaves, but it was not replaced. I'll help you clean your wounds once more, after the kids are asleep."
Jiang Zhou smiled and nodded in agreement.
………………………………
Next day.
after breakfast is finished.
Today's breakfast is a rice cake fried in peanut oil.
Peanut oil this time is peanut oil fried from self-grown beans, so the aroma is very fragrant.
Then this rice cake is fried with a small fire.
In an instant the wine sparkled and the aroma was as fragrant as ever,
the two children each ate two rice cakes.
Liu Mengli and Jiang Zhou each ate three.
After breakfast, the four of them prepared to go to brother Jiang Ming's house at the end of the village.
After being reborn, she had never been to her sister's house.
This time he happened to buy meat and make rice cakes.
So, Jiangzhou wanted to go visit him.
Jiangzhou House happened to be located in front of the village.
They had to pass a considerable distance to get to the end of the village.
Jiang Zhou brought his son and wife who were sitting on a wooden carriage while pushing his wooden carriage.just half an hour they had just arrived there.
There are not many people at the end of the village.
Jiang Zhou had only come twice, after a fight with his older brother Jiang Ming.
Every time he came to ask his mother for money, Qi Aifen.
By following his memory, after passing through the camphor tree and visiting the two mud houses in the back, the next house is the house of brother jiang ming.
When the first time to the end of the village, kak jiang ming house is still made of yellow mud and straw as the roof.
But now, they have replaced it with a tile.
It seems their lives are getting better.
it's just...
It's just that the gate of their house is closed today. Are they not home?
Jiang Zhou walked over.
Turns out the yard gate was locked.
Liu Mengli also walked with his two children, then looked inside curiously.
“Maybe they went to plant rice seedlings?"
Liu Mengli immediately shook his head "It is impossible, even though they went to plant rice seedlings, there should be people inside the house. After all Jiang Haoming has to go to school today. Usually at this hour they still eat breakfast."
Jiang Haoming is the son of his older brother Jiang Ming
Four years older than Chloe and Zoe.
Jiang Zhou was seven years younger than Jiang Ming.
Therefore Jiang Ming married a few years sooner than Jiang Zhou.
Jiang Zhou said nothing.
He looked around and said, "Let's wait a minute."
Chloe and Zoe are kids.
they play happily playing under the camphor tree.
About half an hour later, when Jiang Zhou was about to return in the afternoon, he suddenly saw Yao Juan walking out from the back of the house with Jiang Haoming beside him.
Yao Juan seemed to be telling Jiang Haoming something.
then he just nodded.
“Sister-in-law!”
Jiang Zhou shouted.
Yao Juan is Jiang Ming's daughter-in-law.
She's a woman from the village next door.
He was also seven years older than himself.
At first, he took care of jiang zhou like his own son.
Then, since jiang zhou did not know himself at that moment, he felt that after Yao juan gave birth to a son, Yao juan did not pay any more attention to him, he felt that after Yao juan gave birth to a son, Yao juan did not pay any more attention to him, so that jiang zhou always made trouble to attract their attention.
However now, jiang zhou had come back to life.
Only then did Jiang Zhou realize that he was actually jealous of a baby boy.
The more jiang zhou thought about it, the more unreasonable it became.
Yao Juan looked up and saw Jiang Zhou.
She's surprised.
But he woke up again quickly.
"Yinzhou? Why are you here? "
Yao Juan held onto Jiang Haoming's hand tightly.
He felt his heart a little unsettled.
"Your father and brother have been busy for two days, and they haven't made any money yet. Jiaozhou, big brother really has no money..."
Yao Juan's first reaction was to think Jiangzhou had come to ask for money.
Yet...
Some of this time, for special reasons, the jiang ming family not only did not save, but they owed a lot to others.
If today Jiangzhou did not get the money he wanted, he would probably make a big fuss again.
Yao Juan's entire body stiffened.
