Chapter 181 Old Things
"Song Shaoying...is actually a woman?"
Song Xi murmured.
Meng Xiangrong nodded.
Song Xi was silent for a long time, and suddenly looked at his son Song Zhi.
Song Zhi immediately noticed Song Xi's gaze.
But after one glance, Song Zhi immediately turned his head away, unwilling to even look at Song Xi.
Song Xi smiled bitterly.
After a while, Song Xi slowly said, "In the spring of 1944, I led troops to encircle and suppress the Neon Army... It was the Battle of Wangui Cave. After liberation, they thought the name was not nice, so they changed it to the Battle of Huiling. I led an entire division, claiming to have 10,000 people, but in fact there were less than 7,000... We annihilated 30,000 enemies, but lost 2,000 of my own..."
"Just then, Song Shaoying of the Blue Army came to rescue us. He also had a division... together with other troops that were scattered nearby, and the scattered Blue Army soldiers who came to report to Song Shaoying... In the end, we gathered 40,000 people, with me as the commander-in-chief and Song Shaoying as the deputy commander... We won a perfect victory!"
"The main force of the Neon Army, which was said to have a million troops... was all pinned down by us, preventing them from crossing the river. That fierce battle laid the foundation for the Neon Army's surrender later."
At this point, Song Xi smiled contemptuously, "At that time, I thought Song Shaoying was a very good guy, with a broad mind and a sense of the overall situation... I didn't expect that he would have his guards tie me up before the battle was over!"
Meng Xiangrong immediately explained: "Comrade Song Xi, I must explain this to you!"
"Shao Lan's arrest of you was fake. She actually accepted a secret mission from the organization. She was trying to save you! You also know the situation at that time. There were many Blue Army vagrants who came to report, including people sent by the Military Control Commission and the Central Control Commission. They came for you!"
Song Xi was slightly stunned.
Meng Xiangrong continued, "So our plan at the time was to let Shao Lan capture you and send you to Lanjing to win the credit! Then, secretly, we would organize our secret workers to rescue you along the way... In fact, that's what we did."
"…But, something unexpected happened along the way. Several of our other comrades accidentally fell into the hands of the Military and Central Bureau of Investigation, so the comrades originally planned to be sent to 'rescue' you were sent to perform a temporary mission. So Comrade Huai Zhen took over the task of 'rescuing' you…"
"However, at that time, the identities of Huai Zhen and Shao Lan could not be exposed. It was Huai Zhen who suddenly had an idea and let Shao Lan's guards 'escort' you to the place where we were fighting with the Central Bureau of Investigation and the Military Bureau of Investigation in order to rescue other comrades... Then Shao Lan's guards deliberately let you and Huai Zhen go, and Huai Zhen took you away and hid."
Song Xi fell into memories.
——He was caught by Song Shaoying that year, but halfway through the journey, a beautiful woman in cheongsam and high heels stopped the car escorting him.
She is Huai Zhen.
However, Song Xi often led his troops to the rear for many years, and he knew Song Shaoying and had also heard a little about the love story between Song Shaoying and his wife. But he didn't know that Song Shaoying's wife was Xu Huaizhen, and he had never seen a movie starring Xu Huaizhen.
He only knew that Song Shaoying's personal guards were very afraid of Xu Huaizhen, even to the point of obeying his every word!
Xu Huaizhen got in the car, sat next to Song Xi, then pointed at Song Xi and asked his guards: Who is this person?
The guards hesitated for a long time but couldn't make any sense of the story.
Song Xi immediately came up with an idea - since the guards were so afraid of this woman, and this woman was beautiful and slender, then he could threaten the guards by subduing this woman, and finally escape from here.
Xu Huaizhen came here to hitchhike.
She ordered her guards to take her to the department store first.
The guard complied respectfully and drove the car to the department store.
result--
Before Song Xi could launch an attack, he encountered a street fight!
The guards escorting Song Xi immediately split into several groups. Some escorted Song Xi, some protected Xu Huaizhen, and some went to check the situation...
In this way, Song Xi easily knocked out the guards around him, looked at Xu Huaizhen again, turned around and ran away.
Unexpectedly, Xu Huaizhen caught up with me.
The two ran for their lives.
Soon, the city was blocked.
Song Xi became the most wanted criminal.
Being in an unfamiliar place, Song Xi was completely in the dark!
It was Xu Huaizhen who found a place to stay and hid with him.
She told him that she was Song Shaoying's cousin. Her cousin treats her very well, but her cousin's wife is mean and mean... She always wants to give her to her cousin's superior as a concubine.
Xu Huaizhen said that she would not go back this time, so as to prevent her cousin's wife from targeting her all day long!
Song Xi doesn't trust Xu Huaizhen.
But in that environment and under those conditions at that time, whether he trusted Xu Huaizhen or not, his situation would be the same.
Xu Huaizhen is beautiful, smart, and inexplicably naive. She has a generous and pure personality, and is always a little childish.
After spending a long time with her, Song Xi actually... fell in love with her.
During that period, for some unknown reason, the Blue Army seemed to be certain that Song Xi had not escaped from the city, and they began to search deeply underground, with the determination not to give up until they found Song Xi.
Song Xi and Xu Huaizhen were forced to become invisible.
The two of them lived in a basement and could only quietly come to the yard to sit and get some fresh air when it was absolutely safe. After spending months together day and night, the young man and woman fell in love with each other.
They became a true couple.
In the autumn, the dying Japanese army counterattacked Park City again.
Park City fell.
Song Xi was trapped in Pyeongdu, which was linked to Park Sung.
As Pucheng fell, the people of Pingdu also panicked and wanted to escape before the Japanese army attacked... At this time, the Central Bureau of Investigation and Statistics and the Military Bureau of Investigation could no longer care about Song Xi and retreated overnight.
Song Xi is free.
He must return to the army immediately.
Song Xi wanted Xu Huaizhen to go with him, but Xu Huaizhen refused.
"I have to go back to my cousin," she said.
Song Xi didn't understand why Xu Huaizhen chose her cousin at such a critical moment.
He grabbed her slender wrist and said, "Come with me...let's get married and stay together forever."
After thinking for a moment, Xu Huaizhen nodded with a smile, "Okay!"
The two of them packed their simple luggage and hurried out.
The streets were in chaos, with people running around crying.
After being trapped for five months, Song Xi returned to the street for the first time and found the following contact points with special marks on the shops.
After the comrade in charge of liaison verified Song Xi's password, he found a way to get two train tickets, gave them to Song Xi, and told him how to find the local contact point after arriving in the next city.
However, when he and Xu Huaizhen arrived at the train station——
Song Shaoying suddenly appeared.
Song Xi was about to explode!
However, what made him even more angry was...
Xu Huaizhen actually shook his hand off and walked towards Song Shaoying step by step!
Song Xi also saw the handsome Song Shaoying embrace the beautiful and petite Xu Huaizhen in his arms, looking at her with an extremely doting look, and asked helplessly and angrily, "...Have you had enough fun?"
Looking at the intimacy between Xu Huaizhen and Song Shaolan, Song Xi seemed to understand something.
He clenched his teeth and looked at Xu Huaizhen with red eyes.
However, she smiled coldly at him, "Goodbye!"
Those were the last words she spoke to him.
In comparison, Song Shaoying is much more graceful. He felt a deep sympathy for Song Xi, "... Today my brother is in trouble in Pingdu, and I have defeated him unfairly. I only hope that if we meet in the future, I will be ready to fight with my weapons."
Song Xi's face turned pale and he turned away in embarrassment.
He moved from Pingdu to Yincheng, then to Lancheng, and finally back to his army base...
Along the way, Song Xi heard all kinds of rumors and gossip, and finally knew what kind of woman Xu Huaizhen was.
——She is the daughter of overseas Chinese businessmen, a rich lady, a movie star, and the wife of Song Shaoying, a senior general of the Blue Army!
In order to pursue Xu Huaizhen, Song Shaoying even mobilized 10,000 soldiers to surround the wall and force a marriage, which caused a huge mess! Finally, the wife of the Blue Army's highest commander came forward and acted as a matchmaker for the two. Xu Huaizhen took enough money from Qiao and was said to have held him hostage to a huge sum of money... and finally married Song Shaoying.
Song Xi was so angry that he almost vomited blood!
He is so stupid...
He was actually played around by a woman!
She actually pretended to be Song Shaoying's cousin! She even said bad things about herself... saying that her cousin's wife forced her to become a concubine!
However, Song Xi also has many uncertainties.
——Xu Huaizhen is Song Shaoying’s wife? But when she was with Song Xi, she was still a virgin!
——In our daily interactions, she is obviously a very lovely girl. Being forced to hide in the basement and eat coarse food every day was not easy, but Xu Huaizhen never cared! She is always so enthusiastic and interested in everything!
——Identity can deceive people, but the thoughts and ideas expressed in daily words will not deceive people. The reactions of two people when their love is at its peak will not lie. Her whispers in his ears, her dreams... cannot lie.
She said, "Song Xi, when will we be able to drive the Japanese away? When will the war end? When will we be able to have a peaceful and happy home? Will our next generation, the next generation... lead a happy and prosperous life?"
Whenever she asked this, Song Xi always gave a very affirmative answer.
Because this is also his dream, a dream he is willing to sacrifice his life for...a dream he wants to fulfill!
Although he had many questions in his mind, personal feelings were trivial in the critical situation at the time, and Song Xi devoted himself to his career as soon as possible.
But in the process, he became very concerned about Xu Huaizhen, or any news related to Song Shaoying.
——I heard that Xu Huaizhen’s elder brother Xu Huaijue committed a crime, suspected of embezzling military pay, and was tortured to death. Soon, Song Shaoying and Xu Huaizhen divorced, and Xu Huaizhen's whereabouts were unknown.
After a while, a scandal about Xu Huaizhen broke out.
——It is said that after Xu Huaizhen divorced Song Shaoying, he had been hanging around several other senior generals... and maintaining unclear relationships with those people. In the end, Xu Huaizhen died of jealousy, and his death was quite ugly. He had fun with several men at the same time and fell into the river and died!
When Song Xi heard the news of Xu Huaizhen's death, he couldn't believe it.
He always felt...
No matter what the rumors are, as long as she hasn't let him see that unbearable scene, in his heart, she is innocent; as long as she hasn't said goodbye to him... then she is always there.
Having said that, he still took time out to go to Pingdu, walked around the area where she fell into the river, and tried to find witnesses.
But in the end, nothing was achieved.
Unexpectedly, half a year later, someone brought a baby and Xu Huaizhen's belongings, and then left in a hurry.
But Song Xi was at the front line at the time, and by the time he heard the news and rushed back... the child had been raised by his subordinate's wife for three or four months.
Song Xi looked at the little child in surprise, as well as...the things that were said to be Xu Huaizhen's relics: a diary, a cheongsam, and a pearl handbag. In the bag were four or five gold bars, a set of ruby jewelry, a fountain pen, half a pack of ladies' cigarettes and a pack of matches.
Song Xi opened the diary immediately.
The entire diary, all the title pages were filled with writing, and all in Xu Huaizhen's own handwriting.
However, what was recorded in the notes was... the love story of Xu Huaizhen and Song Shaoying.
She wrote in her diary:
——Shaoying is not at home, she misses her very much. Even though she knew that he probably wouldn't miss her, she couldn't help but worry about whether he had eaten, whether he had eaten at all, whether he was bitten by mosquitoes, or whether he had any troubles.
——The weather is particularly humid today, and I don’t know if Shaoying has rheumatism. In fact, she didn't know whether Shaoying had this disease, but she thought she did. If there really is, what should he do? He is still so young...
——She saw particularly bright stars today, and she didn’t know if Shaoying was seeing them too. It is said that the starlight she sees now is from hundreds of millions of years ago. Perhaps by the time Shaoying has time to see it, a long time will have passed... But it doesn't matter. Even if it transcends time and space, she is always seeing the same star.
…
Song Xi felt like she was simply crazy! ! !
He inexplicably fell in love with a married woman and did something wrong...
Now that she is dead, she doesn't hand her child over to her husband, but actually gives it to him...what's going on?
Is this implying that the child is not her husband's, but Song Xi's?
Then why did she also give a copy of her and her husband’s love diary as a gift? ? ?
Song Xi also asked people to track down the person who sent the child, but they could not find him at all.
What made him feel even crazier was——
He actually claimed this child of unknown origin as his own, and... he never got married in his entire life!
Now--
Song Shaoying is actually a woman? And she is also an...underground worker!
Song Xi looked at Meng Xiangrong with red eyes, "Comrade Meng, you said... Xu Huaizhen also wrote me a letter? I didn't receive it. I only received Xu Huaizhen's diary, cheongsam and pearl bag! What's the matter with that letter?"
"And..." Song Xi said hoarsely, "Why has no one ever told me this?"
Meng Xiangrong nodded, "Comrade Song Xi, I came here for this very reason!"
She bent down, picked up the handbag leaning against the chair, unzipped it, took out a stack of documents from it, and sorted them out a little.
Then she handed the document to Song Xi as she spoke.
"Comrade Song Xi, when Comrade Huai Zhen died, the senior leaders of the Blue Army were very angry. In addition, Comrade Huai Zhen's brother did a lot of things to harm the Blue Army, and almost all the money he earned was used to subsidize our Hong Army... So they made up a story about Comrade Huai Zhen and Comrade Huai Zhen that was useless! This is bullying them because they are no longer here..."
"However, out of protection for Comrade Shao Lan, we could not clear the names of Comrade Huai Yu and Comrade Huai Zhen at that critical moment... Comrade Song Xi, please take a look at this record. It was Comrade Tao Jia who gave you the children and Comrade Huai Zhen's relics. This is the work report she wrote later. You can take a look... There is indeed a letter written in more than one place."
Song Xi took the document and frowned.
Meng Xiangrong continued, "Not long after Comrade Huai Zhen died, her former superior, Comrade Huang Huaxing, also died... so almost all the clues on her side were cut off. However, my cooperation with Comrade Shao Lan continued until 1949... after Comrade Shao Lan died. So I still have a few letters from Comrade Shao Lan here, which she wrote to Huai Zhen. Do you want to see them?"
Song Xi nodded.
Meng Xiangrong handed him a few yellowed letters.
Song Xi took it, pulled out the letter and looked at it for a while... then he was stunned.
——There are a few words written on the letter paper, and it seems that they are all about family matters?
Meng Xiangrong noticed Song Xi's expression and quickly took the letter back. After taking a look... she smiled, "No wonder you can't understand it. They wrote it in code! Come, I'll tell you how to translate it and how to read it..."
It turned out that the text messages that Song Shaoying wrote to Xu Huaizhen contained the following contents:
——I have managed to get some anti-inflammatory medicine for you, you can use it as you see fit. I found out about X's situation. He is doing well and won a battle some time ago. I hope all is well with you.
——How are you feeling recently? You haven't been around these days, and I've been exhausted. Yesterday, I actually dreamed of my husband and children. In my dream, I cried and told them that I was suffering and too tired and I couldn't hold on... They encouraged me gently, and when I woke up, I felt full of strength again. I hope you can have a good sleep too, and when you wake up, you will be full of strength like me.
——Suddenly I remembered you said that X likes to eat lotus root. I found a way to get some and asked someone to send it to you. Although he is not by your side, you should take good care of yourself, make a delicious lotus root meal, and invite him to join you for the meal.
—Oh my God, what did you write in your reply? Do you want to marry X? Your idea is really crazy, but I'm crazy with you. My love is gone, so I enjoy your madness. I've brought you a piece of red cloth and some needle and thread. You can play with it however you like!
There are about ten letters, all written by Song Shaolan to Xu Huaizhen. None of them mentions love between men and women. Instead, they are full of intimacy and harmony between sisters.
Song Xi was stunned.
He suddenly realized something!
"Xiao Zhao!" Song Xi yelled.
Guard Zhao Hongjun rushed in from outside in a panic, "Commander?"
Song Xi, who was sitting on the bed, bent down with great effort, trying to get something from under the bed...
Zhao Hongjun rushed over and squatted beside Song Xi's bed.
Song Xi instructed him, "Take out my box!"
Zhao Hongjun nodded and quickly took out a half-worn suitcase.
Song Xi gestured to Zhao Hongjun to put the suitcase on his lap.
Then, Song Xi carefully opened the combination lock on the suitcase and opened the lid.
——There was also a small locked leather suitcase inside.
Also, there was a pair of white gloves next to it.
Song Xi put on his gloves swiftly, opened the combination lock again, and opened the small suitcase.
Everyone's eyes followed Song Xi's movements, Taotao and Song Zhi were no exception.
When the exquisite little suitcase was opened, everyone could see clearly... there were several things inside, all neatly wrapped in pieces of silk cloth.
Song Xi hesitated for a while, looked up at Song Zhi, and said, "Come and take a look."
His voice was very gentle.
Song Zhi took Taotao over there.
Song Xi gently lifted one of the silk cloths, revealing a half-worn, thin quilt made of earthenware cloth.
"This is the little quilt that wrapped you when you were sent to me. These clothes are also the ones you wore... Although I'm not sure if they were sewn by your mother herself, I think it's good to keep them as a commemoration." Song Xi said with red eyes.
Song Zhi reached out and touched the quilt, feeling it was warm and soft.
Zhao Hongjun said softly, "The leader takes it out every year to dry it in the sun and wipes it with a wet towel..."
Taotao reached out and took a few small pieces of clothing, looked at them carefully, and said with certainty: "These were all made by grandma herself."
"How do you know?" Song Xi asked, choking.
Tao Tao said: "There are words embroidered on it! Xi's son..."
When Song Zhi took it and looked at it, he found that the three small words "Son of Xi" were embroidered on the corners of the clothes and the edges of the pants!
Song Xi had looked through these clothes countless times, so of course he knew the words written on them. He knew that Xu Huaizhen was telling him that the child was his, Song Xi's!
But that diary...
Song Xi took a deep breath, then picked up another small bundle wrapped in silk and handed it to Tao Tao, "This is the cheongsam left by your mother-in-law! When I first saw her, and when I saw her for the last time...she was wearing this. I'll give this to you as a souvenir!"
Taotao took it solemnly with both hands, "Thank you!"
She opened a corner of the bundle, took a look, and found a cheongsam made of fine material with a dark blue pattern. She showed it to Song Zhi, who took a look and covered it with the silk wrapping cloth.
Song Xi picked up another thing wrapped in silk and handed it to Song Zhi, "This is the pearl handbag your mother left behind. There are some properties in it. Take it!"
Song Zhi looked at Song Xi with complicated eyes.
Finally, Song Xi picked up the last object wrapped in silk very carefully and cherished it.
He unfolded a layer of silk cloth...
Open another layer.
Then open another layer,
Open one more layer...
Finally, the diary written by Xu Huaizhen himself was revealed.
Song Xi said to Meng Xiangrong, "Comrade Meng, could you please help me translate one or two diaries using your decryption method?"
Meng Xiangrong nodded, "No problem."
Song Xi handed the diary to Meng Xiangrong. Meng Xiangrong flipped through the code book and read the diary written by Xu Huaizhen softly...
Everyone was moved.
It turns out that, on the surface, this diary is all about the daily life between Xu Huaizhen and Song Shaoying.
But in fact, they all record Xu Huaizhen's longing for Song Xi!
She said—
X, the wounds on my body hurt a lot, but I have already caused a lot of trouble to the comrades who are taking care of me... I really don’t want anyone else to die for me. X, you are so brave, please give me some courage! Let me overcome the pain!
X, I dreamed of you again last night. I dreamed of the day we broke up and the resentful look you gave me. Even I can't help but admire myself, I am indeed the best actress! The sarcastic expression on my face at that time was... just right, right? X, I’m sorry for making you sad! I hope I can live to see the day when I see you with my own eyes... Let me apologize to you in person again, okay?
X, the baby in my belly can turn over. But I had an injury in my lower abdomen, which affected my uterus. When the baby kicked me in my belly, it hurt so much that I felt like my body was about to be torn apart by it. I quickly begged him: Good boy, please feel sorry for your mother. If your father were here, he would not bear to see you causing me pain like this. The magical thing is, every time I pray like this, he immediately calms down. I guess he is a very well-behaved child!
X, I often wonder a question: Does my child look like you or me? I hope he is like you, so that even if you are not by my side, I can feel like I am seeing you when I see him. X, do you still remember our dream? When we are old and can no longer walk, we will build a swing and a rocking chair in the yard. I swing on the swing and you sit in the rocking chair... We enjoy the breeze and look at the various vegetables and flowers in the vegetable garden... What a happiness it is!
X, I thought about it for a long time and finally made a decision. My body is so weak that I won't live long regardless of whether the baby is born or not. Rather than dying here slowly and being useless, I might as well use my death to push that rotten old mechanism to collapse! What makes me most sad now is that I may no longer have the chance to apologize to you in person or to say "I love you" to you in person again.
X, the child was born, a boy. It turns out giving birth is so painful and tiring! However, because he is your child, no matter how painful or tired I am, I feel happy.
X, I love you, always have, and this is my only love. I love our kids too…but I’m sorry, goodbye. Please take good care of your children and yourself. I am in heaven, blessing you forever!
When Meng Xiangrong translated to this point, she was already sobbing.
Song Zhi was trembling all over, tears streaming down his red eyes.
It was the first time Taotao saw Song Zhi cry. She was also very sad. She stood up and hugged Song Zhi tightly.
Song Xi's hair was white and his eyes were bloodshot.
"So, what about the letter Huaizhen wrote to me? In that letter... did he remind me that the contents of this diary need to be checked with a password before I can read them?" Song Xi asked in a hoarse voice.
Meng Xiangrong shook her head and said softly, "Huang Huaxing's group was also wiped out because of betrayal by a traitor. Even the only person who knew about the situation, Comrade Tao Jia, died. However, I think since Comrade Tao Jia was able to send the child and Huai Zhen's belongings to you, there is no reason for her to intercept another letter... She also recorded it clearly in her work log."
"So Comrade Song Xi, I think there is something wrong with the people on your side." Meng Xiangrong said seriously.
Song Xi pondered for a moment and told the guard Zhao Hongjun, "Where is Wang Qinglu?"
Zhao Hongjun said: "We were going to send Wang Qinglu to the farm, but she said she was sick, and it seemed real, so we asked her to get treatment first, thinking that we would send her to the farm after she was cured. She is now hospitalized in this hospital."
"Let her come over." Song Xi ordered.
Zhao Hongjun took the order and left.
The room fell into silence.
Song Xi looked at Song Zhi. He was in pain and regret, and his eyes were full of complicated emotions when he looked at his son.
"Song Zhi...I'm sorry." Song Xi said softly.
Taotao looked at Song Zhi.
Song Zhi was unwilling to look at Song Xi, because Song Zhi felt even more miserable...
He could understand Song Xi's complicated feelings towards him - because Song Xi really always thought that Song Zhi was the child of Song Shaoying and Xu Huaizhen!
Such a misunderstanding gave Song Zhi a desperate and dark childhood.
He can forgive Song Xi...
But who can help him achieve his goal in his childhood, those bullied, lonely and painful days and nights?
Taotao hugged Song Zhi tightly and whispered, "...Song Zhi, I know you are in pain. But your father won't feel good either. He has suspected your mother all his life, and he has also suspected you all his life... He has missed and lost more than you."
Song Xi's face turned pale.
——Taotao is right, he is the ultimate loser!
He didn't know that Huai Zhen loved him, nor did he know that Song Zhi was his biological son! He really thought Song Shaoying was a man, but it turned out that Song Shaoying was not only a woman, but also a sworn sister of Huai Zhen!
He sent his own son away and missed the child's growth; he watched his beloved woman write her love diary with another man day and night...jealousy and resentment burned in his heart every moment! But because of his love for her... he was willing to adopt her child with another man, and for her who had died long ago, he would never marry!
result……
After a while, Wang Qinglu and Zhao Hongjun hurried over.
She saw Zhao Hongjun coming to find her... and said that the leader wanted her to come over? Wang Qinglu was so happy that she quickly asked Zhao Hongjun whether the leader couldn't do without her and wanted her to go back to take care of him.
Zhao Hongjun had followed Song Xi for twenty years and had long since developed the ability to keep his emotions hidden. For the moment, he did not comment, but changed the subject and brought Wang Qinglu over.
Wang Qinglu was overjoyed when she suddenly saw Song Xi. She ran over excitedly, "Chief..."
Song Xi stared at Wang Qinglu coldly.
He remembered it very clearly - it was July 25, 1946. He had just won a battle and the guards who stayed at the base camp ran to the front line to find him, saying that someone had sent a child and a suitcase.
At that time, he had a vague premonition in his heart, and rode a fast horse back to the base camp from the front line.
The person in charge of taking care of the child at that time was his subordinate Lao Qi's wife, Qi Dasao.
Mrs. Qi said that a female comrade hurriedly brought the child and the things over. Everyone thought that Song Xi was fighting on the front line at the time, so they suppressed the news. The little boy was still breastfeeding. It happened that Mrs. Qi had just given birth and had milk, so she took the little boy with her and raised him together with her own son.
When Song Xi rushed back, Mrs. Qi had already been feeding Song Zhi for several months.
Song Xi asked Mrs. Qi what the female comrade who delivered the gifts looked like. What was delivered?
Mrs. Qi described the appearance of the female comrade. As for the things, Mrs. Qi said she only knew that a child and a suitcase were delivered. As for what was in the suitcase, she had never opened it and did not know.
Of course, Song Xi could also ask Mrs. Qi to confront Wang Qinglu, but Mrs. Qi is old and is out of town... It would take a lot of time to go back and forth, so it would be better to look for clues directly from Wang Qinglu.
Yes, Song Xi suspected that this matter must be related to Wang Qinglu.
Before this, he had never doubted Wang Qinglu.
This woman is quite ordinary and has no fundamental problems with her stance.
It's different now.
Song Xi asked directly, "Wang Qinglu, when Song Zhi was sent to me, did you take a letter?"
Wang Qinglu, who was staring at Song Xi infatuatedly just now, suddenly turned as pale as paper.
"No, no! I don't know..." Wang Qinglu said hesitantly, "...I wasn't there at the time! It was Mrs. Qi who received us..."
Song Xi stared at her. "Comrade Tao Jia, who sent the child here, told me everything... She said she opened the small suitcase in front of you and told you what she sent! Do you still want to deny it?"
Song Xi was just trying to trick Hu.
Wang Qinglu widened her eyes in horror!
Song Xi continued, "...You took the letter from the suitcase. Because you were afraid of being exposed, you told Mrs. Qi that you had to go back to your hometown for something. Before you left, you told Mrs. Qi about Tao Jia's dress... Then, you waited until I came back from the front and saw the child before you came back, just to clear yourself of suspicion of not being there, right? Or not?"
Wang Qinglu was speechless for a long time.
"Is it? Or no?" Song Xi asked again.
Song Xi became furious, threw off the quilt and jumped up from the bed, then reached under the pillow...
He has an extra gun in his hand!
Everyone was shocked!
Song Xi loaded his pistol with great agility, walked to Wang Qinglu and kicked her -
All I heard was a loud bang!
Wang Qinglu screamed and flew several meters away. Her body fell heavily to the ground and hit the corner of the wall.
Song Xi walked over and stepped directly on Wang Qinglu's head. He pointed the dark hole at her and said word by word: "Don't fool me, tell me the truth! You have already lived an extra half of your life. It's not a loss for you to die now!"
Wang Qinglu was frightened, "Ah, Ah Xi..."
Song Xi stepped harder.
Wang Qinglu screamed even more miserably, "Ahhhhhhhhhhhh..."
"explain!"
Song Xi roared.
Wang Qinglu cried out in shock. She screamed and said incoherently, "...Song Xi, I have always liked you! But you never see me in your eyes! Why?"
"A woman came to you with a child in her arms, saying that the child was yours! How could I accept that? As soon as she left, I opened the suitcase and looked inside... There was a diary, a piece of clothing, a bag and a letter. There were a few words scribbled on the letter, meaning how much she had given you. I, I saw that she wrote in the letter... There were ten gold bars!"
At this point, Wang Qinglu sobbed a few times, "I, I was so upset that I opened her pearl bag and took a look. There were really ten gold bars! I, I took four... Because I took four, I couldn't keep the letter, so I... burned the letter..."
"What happened later... was just as you guessed. I was afraid that you would know about it, so I handed the matter over to Mrs. Qi, and then I took the gold bars back to my hometown. I hid for three or four months before coming back..." said Wang Qinglu.
