Chapter 1768 Arrangement to Return Home 1
At this point, Deng Hongling suddenly reacted and looked at Feng Qingxue suspiciously, "Doctor, how do you know my brother participated in the War to Resist U.S. Aggression and Aid Korea?" She didn't remember saying it.
Feng Qingxue pulled down her mask and smiled at her. Her skin was as white as snow, her eyebrows and eyes were as beautiful as a painting, and she was very beautiful yet gentle. Deng Hongling was almost stunned. She had never seen such a beautiful person before, and her beautiful voice reached her ears. "I guessed. I think Wucheng is very close to North Korea, and the country must have transferred soldiers from the Capital Military Region to help. Of course, the soldiers who live here may not be able to join the nearby troops. They may be assigned to the border areas, so I said it was a guess."
Deng Hongling didn't doubt it after hearing this. She was mainly grateful to Feng Qingxue. She thought that someone who was willing to help them in this situation would not have any bad intentions towards them.
"My brother's troops are in Shandong and belong to the East China Sea Fleet, not the Capital Military Region." Deng Hongling said.
It turned out to be the navy!
No, Lu Jiang has always been in the army, which means Deng Nan was assigned to the East China Sea Fleet after the War to Resist U.S. Aggression and Aid Korea.
Feng Qingxue was stunned for a moment and kept it in mind.
After feeding the comatose child half a bowl of porridge, Feng Qingxue slowly asked, "What's your nephew's name? How old is he?"
"My name is Deng Wu, which means "Wu" in both literature and martial arts. My nickname is Xiaowu. My brother got married late and was often away from home after marriage, so Xiaowu is nine years old this year." Deng Hongling answered without hesitation, "When my brother got into trouble, Xiaowu was only a little over one year old. My engagement was broken off, so I put all my energy on this nephew who was abandoned by my sister-in-law."
The more Deng Hongling spoke, the more painful she felt, but she couldn't tell anyone else.
Their ancestors supported the war of resistance and donated almost all their property, leaving only the land and an ancestral house. As a result, the land was confiscated after liberation, and her father was already dead but was still classified as a landlord of the exploiting class. Because her brother Deng Nan served in the army and made meritorious contributions, and her parents died early, the state gave their family a break, and they did not suffer much at the beginning. Many red capitalists and red landlords who made meritorious contributions were treated in the same way, but none of them escaped the catastrophe that began in 1966.
My brother was arrested due to a report from his sister-in-law, and then demoted to a distant place. My fiancé, who was scheduled to get married at the end of the year, suddenly turned against me, cancelled the wedding, and married another woman from the working class and peasant class. She was angry that I had been engaged to her fiancé, and he would drag me out for a fight every now and then, relying on my work status.
Because her background followed her father's and not her mother's, she was nailed to the pillar of shame and would never be able to turn over. But she could not die, and she dared not die. She had to raise her nephew, and the two of them could only struggle to survive.
Even if Deng Hongling didn't say it, Feng Qingxue would have guessed it almost exactly.
Generally speaking, the current movement seems to have calmed down a lot, and some people have gradually resumed work, but in fact there has been no reduction in the actions below. Perhaps it is the last madness, and many reasons for tormenting people have been invented for no reason. Things like Deng Hongling's happened all over the country, but Feng Qingxue has not come into contact with them in the past two years due to work and life reasons.
"Everything will be fine." Feng Qingxue pinched Deng Wu's chin and fed him half a bowl of porridge before stopping. She patiently repeated what she had said to boost his confidence. "Only by being alive can there be hope. Only by being alive can you and your nephew see your elder brother return safely. You haven't received any bad news about your elder brother in these years, right?"
