Chapter 4 The Xu Family in Jiangcheng
Just as Xu Xu Chen was having a headache and closed his eyes to rest, the door of the ward was pushed open.
Xu Xianchen's adoptive father, Huang Dingming, commander of the city defense of the Jiangcheng Imperial Army, walked in quickly and said to Xu Xianchen, who was leaning against the bedside with his eyes closed:
"Yu Chen, I heard from Dr. Sun that you are awake, how about it? Is nothing wrong?"
Xu Shengchen looked at Huang Dingming in front of him. He looked like he was in his fifties, with a national face, a tiger's back and a bear's waist. At first glance, he saw Huang Dingming's appearance in his memory.
So he said, "Uncle, nothing is wrong. He just has a headache, so he needs to take it down."
Although Huang Dingming had already recognized Xu Shengchen as his adopted son, he did not let him call him his father, but just asked Xu Shengchen to call him uncle. In his heart, Xu Yuan will always be his eldest brother, how can his eldest brother's son call him his father?
"Doctor Sun, didn't you say Adjutant Xu is fine? Why is his head still hurting?" Huang Dingming scolded.
"Commander Huang, I just checked the whole body of Adjutant Xu. There was no problem. Adjutant Xu didn't say a headache." The doctor named Sun said in confusion.
"Old Sun, do you still want to do it? If you don't want to do it, roll a bedding tomorrow, get out of here. You can get as far as you can."
"Uncle, it doesn't matter if your son has a headache or being hit by a carriage. You don't have to blame Dr. Sun." Xu Xianchen was really angry when he saw Huang Dingming, and said hurriedly.
"That's strange. You have never had this problem since you were a child. Why did you have this headache after staying in Japan for a few years?" Huang Dingming asked hurriedly.
"I don't know when it started. However, it's not always a headache. It's no big deal. Just lie down for a while."
"If it's no big deal, don't lie here. Let's go home and haven't seen you for four years, your aunt misses you.
These two days, you were in a coma in the health center. She burned incense and chanted Buddha's name for you every day, for fear that you would not wake up."
"Okay, I miss my aunt too, uncle, let's go home." Xu Shengchen said.
"By the way, Siqi came back from Tianjin tonight, and she was talking about you, Brother Chen every day." Huang Dingming said with a smile.
...
Huang Siqi, Huang Dingming's only daughter.
The gate of memory opened, and a little girl with two dimples smiled and appeared in front of Xu Fengchen.
However, this is what Huang Siqi looked like four years ago. Her daughter changed a lot. She doesn’t know what she looks like now.
Based on past memories, Xu Xianchen vaguely felt that this sweet-looking little girl seemed to have no affection for her, but just treated herself as her brother.
It seems that I am self-indulgent.
However, according to the usual plots of the novel, green plums are an eternal theme to the falling of the sky. If Huang Siqi is green plums, then Zhao Xiaoxue just now should have fallen from the sky.
Do you want to go like this?
Xu Shengchen's thinking became active, and when he had something to divert his sight, the headache seemed not as serious as before.
After washing his face in the ward, Xu Xianchen followed Huang Dingming and left the City Defense Commander's Health Center.
...
Jiangcheng in June has entered midsummer. Although he doesn’t want to be as hot as southern cities, Xu Shengchen, wearing a long-sleeved shirt, is still a little hot. When he went out, he quickly rolled up the sleeves of his shirt.
Seeing this, Huang Dingming said in confusion: "Yu Chen, the officers from the Tokyo Army Academy pay the most attention to military appearance and discipline. Why are you so casual and rolling up your sleeves when you go out?"
"Oh, uncle, I just came out of the hospital and saw the sun, and I was a little uncomfortable with it." Xu Xu Chen explained quickly.
Huang Dingming didn't know that in Xu Fengchen's mind, the two memories of himself before and after time were constantly switching, and his living habits were constantly changing as these two memories changed.
Xu Shengchen, who had traveled through time, was almost brainwashed by the Japanese. His mind was like the Great East Asian Holy War and the land of prosperity for the common prosperity.
And I knew clearly that the bullshit war would be gone in two years.
However, before traveling through time, Xu Shengchen was brainwashed by the Japanese, and other things in his mind were all real and learned, and he was unsuccessful before.
In short, if you want to take the essence and remove the dross and integrate these two memories into one and switch them freely, you need to adjust them continuously. It is not possible to complete it in one or two days.
"It seems that rebirth is not as simple as I imagined." Xu Shengchen murmured in his heart.
...
Walking out of the yard, a jeep is waiting at the yard.
Huang Dingming said to Xu Xu, "Zhen Chen, get in the car, let's go back to the mansion."
"Okay, uncle." Xu Shengchen replied.
After getting on the jeep, Xu Shengchen asked, "Uncle, why did Siqi go to Tianjin?"
“Oh, that’s it.
Half a year ago, I was appointed as the commander of the Jiangcheng Imperial Army City Defense Command, and your aunt and Siqi came to Jiangcheng from Jiangnan with me.
Siqi is on the 21st year and is always staying at home, which is not the case.
I originally wanted to arrange for her to stay by my side and be a clerk at the City Defense Command.
But this child doesn't like being a soldier the most and won't come if he lives or dies.
There was no choice, so I asked someone to arrange her to Jiangcheng Security Bureau and became an archivist.
In the past two days, Jiangcheng Security Bureau organized personnel to go to Tianjin for training. She was also one of the trained personnel, so she went with her.
We will be back tonight. After four years, our family can finally have a reunion dinner together.”
"Yes, uncle. Who would have thought that four years later, when I returned from studying in Japan, our family would be able to gather in Jiangcheng thousands of miles away?" Xu Shengchen sighed.
"What has been arranged in the dark of God cannot be changed.
Don’t forget that Jiangcheng is your hometown and your roots. Your father, my elder brother Xu Yuan, grew up in this city.”
Huang Dingming thought of Xu Yuan, who died heroically to save himself more than 20 years ago, and couldn't help but sigh.
"Uncle, you said, should I go back and recognize my ancestors and return to my hometown?" Xu Shengchen asked Huang Dingming.
"I want it, I have adopted you for so many years, just to see you on the day you recognize your ancestors.
In that case, your father can rest in peace in his eyes."
"But before coming to Jiangcheng, you told me that because Jiangcheng Yongtong and Xujiatong, the military police, Mei organs and the security bureau were monitored day and night.
I went back to Xu's house as soon as I arrived in Jiangcheng, okay?"
In Xu Fengchen's memory before traveling through time, what Huang Dingming told him made him very confused.
On the one hand, he is a soldier of the empire, and on the other hand, he is a descendant of the Xu family.
To the left or to the right, his heart kept swaying. In the end, he decided that he would be an imperial soldier first, and then a descendant of the Xu family.
Unexpectedly, things in the world were impermanent. After the soul penetrated, Xu Shengchen no longer had the mission of an imperial soldier in his mind. He had no trouble before, and his previous decision was over.
In short, the Japanese brainwashing work was completely failed.
"Yes, this is indeed a matter. Now your third uncle's identity as an underground party has been confirmed. It is indeed unnecessary to implicate you.
Xu Chen, no one knows your life experience except me and your aunt.
When you adopted you, your mother never told anyone else.
Since outsiders don’t know your relationship with the Xu family in Jiangcheng, there is no need to make it clear.
There is no need to rush to recognize one's ancestors and return to their ancestors, so let's talk about it later."
