Chapter 512: Lessons from the Past
"Qi Fu is right. After the fierce battle in the examination hall, a lot of brain cells were wasted and a lot of energy was consumed."
"Go home and recharge your batteries for the exam this afternoon."
Bai Wei waved his hand and led the way towards the courtyard.
When Song Qifu saw that Anhua did not leave and followed Bai Wei, he clenched his fists excitedly, lifted his feet off the ground and jumped up.
"Qinian, are you so happy?"
The Oriental student said meaningfully.
"You don't understand why I am happy today."
"Come to my house for lunch at noon."
Song Qifu held Dongfangtuo's hand and said.
"All right."
Dong Fangtuo wanted to share in the Song family's good fortune so that he could pass the imperial examination.
He knew that Song Qinian had been promoted to a high position, and he thought that Song Qifu would have a good future too. He wanted to have a good relationship with him now so that they could support each other in the future.
As soon as this idea came up, it was rejected immediately. They were already good friends and there was no need to maintain a good relationship.
So, several people ran towards the Song family's courtyard.
After a few days of college entrance examination, it is finally over.
The days of waiting for success in the imperial examination were tormenting.
Fortunately, a lot of things happened in the past few days, so Bai Wei and Song Qi Fu had no time to think about whether they would fail the exam.
The first thing is that Huo Yan, after being re-investigated by the Military Officers' Council and the Police Department, once again confirmed that the case solved by Song Qinian was notarized to be true and without any falsehood.
Huo Yan was sent from the police station's detention center to a suburban prison. Her sentence remained unchanged at twenty years.
Tang Xuemei was still sentenced to fifteen years in prison, but because she was pregnant, she was still being held outside of prison, recuperating in her hometown in Wumeng Mountain.
Hong Jiasheng, the bad guy, was sentenced to life imprisonment, and Liu Xiang was sentenced to ten years in prison.
Severe sanctions against them are the best consolation to the victims.
Yes, it has sounded a wake-up call to the public. Those who do evil will definitely be punished. It is just a matter of time.
Huo Qiheng rushed into the prison to get his sister out, but he made a serious mistake and was demoted several levels.
Bai Wei couldn't calculate, and Song Qinian was too lazy to calculate. In short, he was demoted from the political commissar of the group army to the commander of a regiment in a fortress.
Fortunately, in order to punish past crimes and prevent future ones, and to save lives, the military district did not strip Huo Qiheng of his military uniform, and he retained his military status and official position.
I heard that we have to report to the unit’s location tomorrow.
Bai Wei and Song Qinian still expressed their feelings.
"If Huo Qiheng had been stricter with his sister, this situation wouldn't have happened."
Bai Wei looked at the verdict and the news he had heard, and said to Song Qinian.
"We should learn from past mistakes and take them as a warning. These eight words should be kept in mind."
Song Qinian finally understood Bai Wei's thoughts. He looked at his little wife and spoke word by word.
"The people around us and our children in the future should remember these eight words when they grow up."
Bai Wei took over Song Qinian's words and spoke decisively.
She thought for a moment, then said to Song Qinian, "Pack up at home and move tomorrow."
"I'll go to the Qin family and then go to the grave to burn three sticks of incense for Qin Xiang."
Song Qinian listened to Bai Wei's thoughts, nodded, and continued, "If I was at home, the Qin Xiang incident would not have happened."
"It's already happened. Please accept my condolences."
Bai Wei listened to Song Qinian's heartfelt words, threw herself into Song Qinian's broad arms, and whispered, "Although you reviewed the case and sent Huo Yan to the police station, the power of the Huo family cannot be underestimated."
"I don't have the courage to face Qin Xiang's spirit in heaven and tell her that the person who harmed you has been brought to justice."
…
Song Qinian stroked Bai Wei's hair and whispered, "Now you can face Qin Xiang's spirit in heaven, and fulfill the oath you made in front of Qin Xiang's grave."
"My dear, I will go with you."
…
Bai Wei raised her head, looked at Song Qinian with tears in her eyes, and said word by word: "I will talk to Qin Xiang myself so as not to disturb the peace."
"Okay, I'll listen to you. When you need me, just give me a shout."
Song Qinian readily agreed and let Bai Wei go and talk to Qin Xiang alone.
He believed that Bai Wei would be able to resolve her inner troubles and bravely face Qin Xiang's spirit in heaven.
"Thank you."
"I'll go to the Qin family first."
Bai Wei broke away from Song Qinian's embrace, straightened her clothes, and then tidied her hair. She then said to Song Qinian, "Thank you for your hard work. I'm going to take some time off."
"I hope you can put down the burden in your heart, go into battle lightly, and live the rest of your life well."
No one knows a wife better than her husband. Song Qinian knew why Bai Wei was worried and also knew that there was something on her mind that she couldn't let go.
He hoped that the dialogue between Bai Wei and Qin Xiang's souls would resolve everything.
Qin Xiang's death was not Bai Wei's fault. If there was any fault, it was because the little girl was targeted by the beast Hong Jiasheng.
The matter has passed, and Hong Jiasheng has paid the price for his sins. If he continues to dwell on it, he will become unforgiving.
Although Song Qinian did not say these words, he believed that Bai Wei would understand sooner or later.
Bai Wei left home and walked on the way to Qin's house.
As she walked, she thought about the day when she first met Qin Xiang.
A shy and pretty little girl, only eighteen or nineteen years old, is going to a training class for the college entrance examination.
Unfortunately, I had no money for tuition, so I could only stand at the window and eavesdrop.
Bai Wei spotted the pretty little girl and said to her, "Do you want to attend the class?"
"Yes."
The little girl nodded and her face instantly turned red like a ripe red apple.
"All right."
"Let me tell you how much each class costs so you can prepare yourself."
Bai Wei said to the little girl.
"Teacher, I have no money. Can I use work to offset the money I have to pay for the training course?"
"I'm good at housework. I can boil water, cook, and take care of children."
…
Although the little girl was very shy, she still spoke out what was in her heart.
Bai Wei listened to the little girl's words, thought for a moment, and then took over the conversation and said, "What's your name?"
"Where do you live?"
When the little girl saw Bai Wei, she asked for her home address and her name.
After thinking for a while, she said to Bai Wei: "My name is Qin Xiang, and I'm a senior high school student."
"I live in the research institute's family compound."
…
Bai Wei finally knew the name of this shy little girl and where she lived.
She realized how simple and honest people were in the 1970s. Unlike in her previous life, who dared to give out their home address?
"I agree to your request."
"Tell me about your study situation and provide tutoring for any problems or shortcomings you have."
Bai Wei said to Qin Xiang.
"Teacher, my English is very poor, and I mainly want to improve my English."
Qin Xiang lowered her head and spoke in a low voice.
"I will give you English lessons starting tomorrow. As long as you master the skills, you will learn it quickly."
"Don't worry about the tuition. I'll give it to you for free."
