The Misty Rain in the Republic of China: The wind and rain are thick and rouge chaos

Chapter 35
Chen Wende stood tall at the door, lowered his head and stared at Moxi for a long time.From his condescending angle, one can see that Moxi has become a bone frame, and the little jacket on her new upper body is clearly defined by her thin shoulders.This Moxi was a little smaller than the previous Moxi, but she showed a clear and slender figure, as if she had grown into a human in the blink of an eye.

Chen Wende hadn't heard of any illness she had, but now recalling the previous days, he remembered that Moxi was indeed always sluggish recently.He thought that this little girl had other intentions and followed him to wrong her, but looking at her performance now, it seemed that it was not just that.

Taking off his shirt, he bent down and put it on for Mo Xi, then squatted down too.

"Hey!" He opened his mouth sharply, "little girl, what's the matter? Hearing your sister go, you're relieved, aren't you?"

Moxi put her hands on her knees, bowed her head deeply, and said nothing.

Chen Wende leaned over and took out a cigarette case from his trouser pocket, opened the lid of the case and took out a cigarette, he smoked it, got up and went back to the house to light himself.Then he returned to Moxi and squatted down. He held the cigarette between two fingers and took a deep breath. Then he raised the hand holding the cigarette, and scratched his temple hair with his ring finger and little finger. Me? Tell me, what do you dislike about me? I have money, I also have soldiers. Do you think I am old? I am just in my early thirties, so I am not too old to be disliked, right? "

After saying this, he took another puff of the cigarette, then stretched his neck and tilted his head to see Moxi's face.However, Moxi almost lowered his head between his knees, he couldn't see Moxi's face, he only saw a big drop of tears falling on the bluestone floor and breaking into eight petals.

A hand reached out to him, snatching the cigarette from his hand.Putting the cigarette into her mouth and taking a deep puff, Moxi immediately raised her head and exhaled a long stream of green smoke, her posture was skillful, as if she had practiced it countless times.

Then she turned her head and smiled at Chen Wende, with tears rolling down her cheeks.Chen Wende stared at her, seeing that her tears were clear and her eyes were crystal clear.At this moment, he thought that this little girl was so pretty, even if this little girl asked him for gold and silver, he had to give it to him, and she happily gave it voluntarily.

At the same time, Feng Yao was sitting in a large carriage, heading for Hongcheng County, a hundred miles away.The two big horses pulling the cart walked side by side and trotted all the way, causing Feng Yao in the cart to suffer from the bumps.

The feeling of bumps is uncomfortable, but Feng Yao doesn't feel any pain or pain at the moment.It was as if her soul was out of her body, and Moxi's words always echoed in her ears.Her body was stiff and numb, but her mind was alive.She was thinking, thinking from beginning to end, thinking of Moxi, thinking of Wan Jiagui.

Fengyao always thinks that Moxi is 15 years old. Before last year, she always thought that Moxi was 12 years old.

No matter if you are twelve or fifteen, you are still a little girl, you are still a little girl.Feng Yao didn't believe that little Moxi would have an affair with a man.Moxi never talks about men in front of her, and she has never been elated with any man, so she doesn't believe that Moxi is wrong.

It's not Moxi's fault, so who is it?Of course, it can only be Wan Jiagui.Wan Jiagui is a soldier, and she has seen him show a rough look more than once, and he is a veteran who has traveled to the East and led soldiers, tall and well-informed.Doesn't it look like he's playing around with Moxi?But why didn't Moxi say anything about being bullied?Because he is his fiancé?Silly Moxi, how stupid!If he's not good, we'll leave. We'll eat by ourselves. We won't starve to death!

Sitting in the cold carriage, Feng Yao didn't eat or drink all the way, and slowly shed her tears.

When the carriage and the accompanying team were about to arrive in Hongcheng County, Wan Jiagui led the troops out of the city.

Now the matter is very clear, Chen Wende has placed an eyeliner by his side, the sneak attack on New Year's Eve was simply a long-planned internal and external cooperation, otherwise, even if his army was defeated, it would not be such a crushing defeat. .

Chen Wende is indeed not easy to mess with. He and his remnants of defeated soldiers stayed in the ravine for several months without saying a word, making Wan Jiagui think that he was seriously injured and was about to die, but he did not expect that he was recharging his energy , I didn't expect that if he didn't do it, he would do it, and if he wanted to do it, he would do it hard!
Wen County was lost, and not long after that, several small counties around Wen County also lost their defense, and they all became Chen Wende's territory.The situation was already so bad, but he had the courage to make his own claims, and took the initiative to give up a county seat to Chen Wende.Why?Of course it was for Feng Yao and Moxi.

Wan Jiagui is reasonable and logical, and it is not Wu Sangui's temperament. He thinks he can't do something like "becoming a beauty in anger".However, when things came to an end, his reasoning and logic all collapsed. He just wanted to keep the green hills, and he was not afraid of running out of firewood.

It was because of him that Fengyao and Moxi were in trouble. If they stayed safely in the city of Beijing, or if they had nothing to do with him and were just teachers of the girls' high school in the city, would Chen Wende tie their votes?
Giving up a county to Chen Wende in vain, Wan Jiagui knew that Mr. Meng would not spare him, but bit the bullet, he still issued a retreat order.First use a county and exchange it back to Fengyao; then use 80 rounds of ammunition—originally the other party wanted 150 million rounds, but it was reduced to 80 rounds after bargaining—in exchange for Moxi.

A county town plus 80 rounds of ammunition, Wan Jiagui didn't know if Mr. Meng would kill him in a fit of rage if such a huge price was heard.

Towards evening, when the sky was still bright, Chen Wende's team sent Feng Yao outside Hongcheng County.

Wan Jiagui strode to the side of the carriage, opened the curtain and looked inside.Feng Yao was still wearing cotton clothes from the Chinese New Year, the cuffs and front were obviously dirty, and her face was so thin that the outlines could not be seen.She and Wan Jiagui looked at each other blankly, but she was speechless in front of the countless people outside the car.

Wan Jiagui stretched out his hand to her, and at the same time called softly: "Feng Yao."

Feng Yao nodded slightly, then bent over to get up, staggered and got off the carriage.Barely standing in the cold evening wind, she turned her head to look at the fiery red setting sun in the distance.At this moment, she was very lonely, even more lonely than when she was imprisoned as a prisoner in Wen County.At that time, Moxi and Wan Jiagui were both in her thoughts, there was no one around, but someone in her heart; but now, Moxi has stayed far away in the old place, and Wan Jiagui has changed in her eyes. Unfamiliar faces.

Standing alone in the wilderness, she has no father, no mother, no home, nothing.

Chen Wende's team didn't dare to stay in Wan Jiagui's territory for long, and when they saw Fengyao landed, they wanted to leave and return.Feng Yao regained her senses a little bit, and quickly took out the water-red handkerchief from her pocket, and handed it to the leading officer, "Please bring this to my sister, after seeing this, she will know that I am safe. Arrived."

The petty officer took the handkerchief, and quickly disappeared without a trace, leading his small team and large carriage.

Wan Jiagui saw that Fengyao's face was pale and her eyes were gone, so she helped her into the car outside the city gate.In front of the officers under his command, he was embarrassed to greet Fengyao, so he only asked the driver to start the car and sent them all to the regiment headquarters in the city.

The regiment headquarters is a small, square courtyard, and Wan Jiagui is currently staying in the regiment headquarters temporarily.After getting out of the car and entering the yard, Wan Jiagui finally said, "Feng Yao, I'm sorry I got you in trouble."

Without saying a word, Feng Yao lowered her head and followed him into the wing.There are two wing rooms inside and outside, and dinner and hot water have been set up in the outside room.After Wan Jiagui entered, he poured a cup of hot tea, held it in both hands and handed it to Feng Yao, "Are you hungry or thirsty? Have you been wronged these days?"

This time, Feng Yao finally turned to Wan Jiagui.

"Aren't you going to ask Moxi?" She heard herself speak, her voice was low and deep, very much like her mother.

Wan Jiagui was stunned for a moment, "Moxi, she—"

Before he finished speaking, Feng Yao suddenly burst into tears and cried: "You are not human!"

Raising her hand like crazy, she slapped Wan Jiagui's face hard.With a sudden crisp sound, she spoke again incoherently: "She has your child, she said she has your child! Moxi, she has your child!"

Tears welled up and flowed all over her face in an instant.This was the first time in her life that she hit someone, and the slap was drawn out, exhausting all the strength in her body.But standing there trembling, she suddenly didn't care about her rage and gaffe.It has to be like this, it has to be slapped, otherwise she will die of grief, she will die of hatred!

Wan Jiagui was slapped, but remained motionless, just staring at Feng Yao in a daze, "Moxi...has a child?"

Feng Yao raised her hand and pointed to the door, her disheveled hair covered her face, she gasped hysterically and said: "Go and save her, aren't you amazing? Go and save her! She saved me, now it's my turn It's up to you to save her! She is two months pregnant, your child, do you want to leave her with Chen Wende?"

Wan Jiagui took a step back, then turned his head and rushed out the door - he wanted someone to mobilize the bullets quickly so that he could replace Moxi as soon as possible!
After one night, Chen Wende received an urgent call from Wan Jiagui, asking him to prepare to release Moxi and receive the bullet.In the last transaction, Chen Wende basically kept his word. He said that he would send Fengyao over there, and he would send the whole thing over. So this time the transaction went smoothly. Chen Wende asked Wan Jia Gui drove the large carriage loaded with bullets towards Wen County, and the people on his side greeted them. As soon as they saw the shadow of the bullets, they would immediately send Moxi there as if they were sending Fengyao.

This is confidential information, except for him and one of his subordinates, Captain Su, no one else knows about it.After reading Wan Jiagui's urgent telegram, he asked Captain Su to take the whole regiment out quietly.

The little officer who escorted Feng Yao to Hongcheng County came back and handed the water-red handkerchief to Moxi.Mo Xi took the handkerchief, intending to ask the other party about Feng Yao's situation, but after thinking about it, she felt that it was unnecessary.What more is there to ask?Feng Yao and Wan Jiagui have met again, maybe Feng Yao will question Wan Jiagui, or even make a fuss, but after the questioning is over, the two of them are still a family.Feng Yao's limp temperament and mind cannot compete with Wan Jiagui's.

Clutching the handkerchief and going back to the house, she went to bed without saying a word, hoping that Wan Jiagui would come to save her for the sake of the child.Her body is really weak now, and she really doesn't have the ability to climb high and far away and escape in the middle of the night.

At noon that day, Commander Su and Wan Jiagui's army exchanged fire.Just because the previous transaction was true does not mean that this transaction is also true.Commander Su made an unexpected move and snatched away the 80 rounds of bullets sent by Wan Jiagui.But the fighting on this side has not stopped yet, and Chen Wende's large army on the other side has already moved towards Hongcheng County, and started a fierce attack without warning.

Moxi was in Wen County, so she knew nothing about the battlefield.She waited anxiously for Wan Jiagui to come and save her, from morning to night, for a full week.

In the afternoon after a week, Chen Wende came back with a smile on his face.He didn't mention a word about the previous transaction, but only told Mo Xi: "Your brother-in-law ran away with your sister."

Mo Xi was lying sickly on the bed, after hearing this, she turned over and sat up, "What?"
