Tong Xuelu awoke with a start.
Her eyes fell on the chair. There was nothing on it, but Wen Rugui was looking at it as if he was talking to someone.
The atmosphere was so eerie that it gave her goosebumps.
Tong Xuelu lay on the bed, not daring to move, not daring to make any sound, even her breathing slowed down. The next moment, she heard Wen Rugui speak again -
"I know you did this for my own good. That woman once brought shame to my father, causing him to suffer a lot before he passed away. Now you are just giving her a taste of her own medicine. She deserves it."
He shut up again, looking at the chair as if listening to what the other person was saying.
After a while, his brows suddenly wrinkled: "No, you don't have to ask your father to stop, just let that woman continue to seduce Shi Xiuneng, only she will suffer, she will not have time to hurt others."
"I can't let her hurt my wife and children." At this point, his brows relaxed, and a faint smile appeared at the corners of his mouth. "You probably don't know yet, Xuelu is pregnant, and I will be a father soon."
Tong Xuelu has been holding her breath and looking at him. She can't say that she is not afraid in her heart until she heard the last sentence of his words.
The fear disappeared at this moment, her nose was sour, and tears welled up, blurring her vision.
She wanted to wipe away her tears, but she was afraid that it would affect him, so she had to blink her eyes and let the tears flow silently down her cheeks.
At this moment, Wen Rugui suddenly turned sideways, and Tong Xuelu had no time to close her eyes, and their eyes met in the air.
Tong Xuelu's breath was choked, and her hands tightly grasped the quilt, not even daring to breathe.
She didn't know if Wen Rugui could see her at this moment, whether he was sleepwalking or awake.
Schizophrenia is very complicated. She remembered watching a movie starring Zhang Guorong, in which he played a schizophrenic patient who got up in the middle of the night to do things, but he knew nothing about the outside world and what he had done.
But the schizophrenia of the male protagonist in the movie "Beautiful Mind" is hallucinations, and he can communicate with non-existent people.
She didn't know which one Wen Rugui was at this moment.
Wen Rugui's eyes fell on the tear marks on her face, and his heart tightened. He leaned over and said, "I'm sorry, did I wake you up? Why are you crying?"
His slender white fingers gently touched her cheek, and the cold touch made Tong Xuelu shudder.
"No, you didn't wake me up, I just woke up from a nightmare."
She tried to look as natural as possible, but her palms were sweaty from nervousness.
Wen Rugui wiped the tears from her face, hugged her and said, "I'm sorry, my friend came to see me, and I was so engrossed in chatting with him that I didn't notice you for a moment."
Tong Xuelu swallowed: "Friend? Which friend?"
"It's the friend I mentioned to you last time who I have known since childhood. His name is Xiaoxu." After speaking, he turned his head and looked at the chair, "Xiaoxu, this is my wife Xuelu."
Tong Xuelu looked at the chair stiffly, and the corners of her mouth twitched: "Hello Xiaoxu, nice to meet you."
There was nothing on the empty chair, so naturally she couldn't hear any reply.
But the next moment, Wen Rugui showed a hint of shyness on his face: "I also think my wife is very beautiful."
Tong Xuelu continued his words: "Thank you for the compliment, but it's so late, Xiaoxu should go home, right?"
Wen Rugui nodded: "Xiaoxu, I'll take you out."
He stood up, walked to the door, opened it and went out.
Tong Xuelu looked at his back, feeling uncomfortable as if someone was pinching her, and her eyes were sour.
After a minute or two, Wen Rugui came back.
"Xiao Xu left. He told you to have a good rest." He took off his shoes and got on the bed, hugging her with his strong arms. "It's just a nightmare. I'm here with you. Don't be afraid."
The weather had already entered autumn. It was unknown how long he had been sitting by the bed. When he leaned over, the coolness on his body made Tong Xuelu shiver again.
"What's wrong?"
Wen Rugui was sensitive to her abnormality and lowered his head to look at her.
Tong Xuelu shook her head and said in a buzzing voice, "It's okay. I just feel safe with you by my side."
She raised her head and kissed him lightly on the chin.
Wen Rugui blushed and touched her forehead lightly. If it weren't for the weird scene before, the scene would have been very warm.
Tong Xuelu squeezed her hands and asked carefully, "By the way, you and Xiaoxu were talking about letting a woman get close to Shi Xiuneng. What were you discussing?"
Wen Rugui's body froze, as if she was frightened: "Did you hear everything?"
Tong Xuelu's palms were sweating again. She didn't know whether it was right or wrong for her to do so, and whether it would irritate him all of a sudden.
But now, she had no way out.
She nodded: "Yes, I just woke up and heard what you said. Are you discussing how to deal with Shi Xiuneng and that woman?"
Wen Rugui's dark eyes looked at her closely, his eyes were bottomless.
The room was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop, which made her nerves tense to the extreme.
"If I tell you that I allowed others to treat my biological mother, would you think I am despicable and unfilial?"
His voice was filled with guilt and worry.
After saying this, he began to avoid looking at her, as if he had done something unforgivable.
As a son, he knew that his behavior was unacceptable, but the woman had already harmed the person he loved the most, and he could not remain indifferent.
Now that she found out that he treated her mother, would she think that he was a terrible person?
Tong Xuelu held his face and made him look at her again: "No, no matter what you did, I will stand by you, not to mention I have just heard that you did all this to protect me and the child."
"Thank you, Rugui, I feel that I am the happiest person in the world. I also thank you on behalf of the child. You are the bravest father in the world."
Wen Rugui's dull eyes suddenly lit up, and he held her hand tightly: "Do you really think so? You really don't think I'm despicable?"
Tong Xuelu shook her head and kissed his soft lips gently: "No, I will never look at you like that."
Wen Rugui looked at the love and trust in her eyes, and the uneasiness in his heart slowly disappeared: "Thank you."
He leaned over, covered her lips, and sucked gently.
This kiss was more gentle than ever before, with a taste of cherishment, caressing her lips bit by bit.
After a while, Tong Xuelu leaned on his shoulder with rosy cheeks, her voice a little breathless: "You haven't answered my question just now."
Wen Rugui paused: "That woman, that is, my mother, sent me four letters in the past month."
Tong Xuelu frowned: "She sent the letter to the base?"
Wen Rugui nodded: "Yes, she sent the letter to the base, and there were some snacks and supplements, saying that she has missed me for more than 20 years and wanted to see me. She also said that you hit her several times, She doesn't agree with us getting married."
Tong Xuelu shook off his hand and snorted in anger, "Then why didn't you tell me before? Didn't you say that we are husband and wife and there should be no secrets between us?"
Wen Rugui saw that she was angry and approached her nervously, "I'm sorry, Xuelu, I didn't hide it from you on purpose, I just don't want you to be angry and upset about this."
When he received Cheng Xiuyun's letter, he was very surprised at first, because she had never contacted him in the past twenty years.
Why did she suddenly care about him now? But when he saw the content of the letter, he was so angry that he threw all the things she sent to the ground.
Later, he realized that she had gone to Tong Xuelu without his knowledge and that a conflict had occurred, which made him angry and worried.
She had been unfair to his father before, and now she was targeting Tong Xuelu. Why did she think he would listen to her?
He was even more worried that Cheng Xiuyun would hurt Tong Xuelu when he was away, so when Xiaoxu came to see him, he told Xiaoxu about it.
Tong Xuelu pouted and looked like she was throwing a tantrum .
"I'm sorry, I won't hide it from you in the future. Don't be angry, okay? And you didn't tell me about your meeting with her?"
His voice sounded aggrieved, like a wronged child.
Tong Xuelu's eyes flashed with guilt, and she turned her head away: "I didn't tell you because you were very busy at that time, and I didn't want you to worry. Forget it, we didn't tell each other, so this time we are even."
Wen Rugui held her hand: "Then you are not angry?"
Tong Xuelu: "Tell me everything you and Xiaoxu did, and I won't be angry."
Wen Rugui had to tell the matter.
After he told Xiaoxu, Xiaoxu, as his friend, was very concerned about his affairs, so he told his father about it. Xiaoxu's father then found a widow and asked the widow to seduce Shi Xiuneng and destroy the relationship between Cheng Xiuyun and Shi Xiuneng.
Tong Xuelu heard this and didn't say anything for a long time, and her hands were clenched into fists.
Old Master Wen had someone keep an eye on Shi Xiuneng and Cheng Xiuyun, but real life is not a novel. At most, that person would go and find out after a while and then report the news back.
Because the information was delayed, she didn't know that Shi Xiuneng had hooked up with other women, let alone that all this was done by Wen Rugui after he became schizophrenic.
Seeing that she didn't say anything, Wen Rugui also clenched his hand: "Why don't you say anything?"
Now that she has heard what she has done, does she regret it? Has she changed her mind and think that he is a despicable person?
He can not care about other people's opinions, but he can't accept that he is a despicable person in her heart, which will make him very painful.
Tong Xuelu came back to her senses and saw that he was in entanglement and pain again. She quickly held his hand and said, "I was just thinking about how to thank Xiaoxu and Xiaoxu's father. After all, they helped us."
Wen Rugui stared at her, "So, you don't think I'm mean?"
Tong Xuelu shook her head, "You did the right thing. You should give Cheng Xiuyun a taste of betrayal. "
She doesn't know about Shi Xiu Neng's affair yet, but it's too early. Shi Xiu Neng said that he would divorce her when their business is successful." Tong Xuelu hugged him and said,
"Rugui, leave the rest to me and Grandpa, and you just focus on scientific research, okay?"
Wen Rugui suddenly felt a little aggrieved and bitter: "You want to shield me from the outside again and not let me know anything, right? Xuelu, I am your husband, I have the ability to protect you and the child."
Tong Xuelu hugged him tighter and kissed his face again: "I know, I know, but I have encountered other troubles now, I hope you can help me, if you always entangle Cheng Xiuyun's affairs, where will you have time to help me?"
Wen Rugui was stunned: "What do you want me to help you do?"
Tong Xuelu: "I want to wait until the weather gets cold and make hot pot in the restaurant, but traditional hot pot tools are not safe. If you use coal, you will be poisoned accidentally. If you use alcohol, the fire is not strong enough, and it is also unsafe and can easily cause a fire. I heard that there is a kind of household appliance called induction cooker abroad. I originally wanted Comrade Xie to bring me one from abroad."
"But things are a bit difficult, so I wonder if you or your friends can develop an induction furnace and we can start production ourselves?"
When Wen Rugui heard her mention Xie Guangkun, he felt jealous: "You don't have to find Comrade Xie, I can help you, but it would be best if you can provide a photo of the induction furnace or tell me what the induction furnace looks like."
Tong Xulu saw that his mind was successfully drawn to the induction furnace, and curled the corners of his mouth: "I don't have a photo of the induction furnace, but I can draw it for you tomorrow, and there are some basic structures and operating principles."
Wen Rugui nodded: "These are enough."
They can research missiles and rockets, let alone a small induction furnace.
Tong Xuelu struck while the iron was hot and said, "Since you promised to help me research the induction furnace, then you don't have to worry about Shi Xiuneng and Cheng Xiuyun's affairs, okay?"
Wen Rugui met her expectant eyes, kissed her eyelids gently, and said in a low voice, "Okay."
As long as she wanted, he would give her.
Tong Xuelu yawned and said, "It's late, let's go to bed."
Wen Rugui responded and helped her lie down.
The lights in the room were turned off, and it was dark all around.
Tong Xulu closed her eyes and slowed her breathing. She didn't know how long it had been until she heard a steady breathing sound beside her. She slowly opened her eyes.
She said that Wen Rugui's illness had not relapsed for a long time. Why did it relapse suddenly? It turned out to be that woman Cheng Xiuyun.
Very good.
She originally wanted to let them live happily for a few more years, and then lead them to the road of crime when the crackdown came in 1983. Now it seems that the plan will be brought forward.
This woman actually had the nerve to write a letter to Wen Rugui. If she was in front of her at this time, she would definitely slap her hard a few times.
Since Cheng Xiuyun wanted to die so much, she had to fulfill her wish.
In this life, no matter what, she would never let Cheng Xiuyun force Wen Rugui into a desperate situation.
The night is as deep as water.
Tong Xuelu turned around and threw herself into his arms. Wen Rugui subconsciously hugged her tighter.
**
She got up late again the next day.
There were bursts of laughter from the yard, and the sound of Yuebing.
She changed her clothes and went out, only to see Yuebing run to the pit where he was supposed to pee, lift up one of his legs, and pretend to pee, then run back and touch the quicksand bag with his nose.
The quicksand bag stared at him with watery eyes and an innocent look on his face, not knowing what Yuebing wanted him to do.
Yuebing saw that he didn't understand, and got anxious, so he ran to the pit again to pretend to pee, and then ran back to touch the quicksand bag again.
But the quicksand bag still didn't understand, and Yuebing was so angry that he barked at it, as if scolding it. The quicksand bag was so aggrieved that he held his face with his two front paws, as if he couldn't face people because he had done something wrong.
Seeing this, the two siblings Tong Jiaxin and Xiao Mianmian couldn't help laughing again.
"Brother-in-law, look at the quicksand bag, it's so funny. Yuebing wanted to teach it to pee, but it didn't understand."
Wen Rugui stood in the sun, and the bright sun shone on his hair, coating his hair with a layer of golden light.
He picked up the quicksand bag and put it in the pit: "The quicksand bag is still young, and he will learn it after a few more times."
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Tong Xuelu standing at the door of the room. His eyes lit up, and he stood up and walked to the faucet to wash his hands, and then walked to her side.
"Are you awake? Are you hungry?"
Tong Xuelu touched her stomach and nodded: "A little hungry."
Wen Rugui rubbed her hair: "I'll go make you some noodles."
Tong Xuelu nodded, and after washing up, she picked up the sketchbook and started sketching.
Fortunately, she still had some painting skills, so she could still draw a not-too-complex still life like an induction cooker, but it was just too beautiful.
After drawing the appearance, she wrote down the operating principle, structure and details as detailed as possible.
Speaking of which, she could remember so much, thanks to her best friend who liked to disassemble electrical appliances. The other party liked to disassemble electrical appliances and then assemble them by herself. She had seen her disassemble and assemble an induction cooker before, so now she remembered a lot of details.
Wen Rugui came over with the noodles she had cooked. She picked up the drawing she had drawn, looked at it for a long time, and said, "It's not difficult to make the induction cooker work, but it's hard to find parts."
Tong Xuelu took a sip of the noodle soup and said, "You're right. No one in China is producing the shell yet, but if we can develop it, it shouldn't be difficult to find a factory to help with production."
To produce the shell, you need a shell mold. There is no shell mold in the domestic market now. Even if you find a factory, they will have to pay for it themselves.
But if the induction cooker can be produced, the mold fee can be earned back in minutes when it is put into production.
She is not worried about this.
Wen Rugui thought for a moment and nodded: "I'll go back and study it with Zhou Yan and the others."
Tong Xuelu kissed him on the cheek with her greasy mouth after eating noodles: "Thank you, dear."
Dear.
He likes this word.
Wen Rugui gently wiped the oil from her mouth, and the tip of her ears turned slightly red.
Tong Jiaxin and Xiao Mianmian, the brother and sister, walked to the door and happened to see the scene of the sister kissing her brother-in-law. They were stunned.
The next moment, Tong Jiaxin covered his eyes and cried out: "My eyes, my eyes are going to get stye!"
Xiao Mianmian looked confused: "Third brother, why do you have stye?"
Tong Jiaxin: "I get stye when I see others kissing, and it hurts!"
Xiao Mianmian was immediately frightened and turned pale. She just saw her sister and brother-in-law kissing.
What should she do if she gets stye?
Wen Rugui: "..."
Tong Xuelu: "..."
A pair of innocent siblings.
Wen Rugui is now the director and cannot leave the base for a long time, so he went back in the afternoon.
When Wen Rugui left, Tong Xuelu followed him out.
Sorry, she's going to open up.
