Chapter 81 Justice will never be absent

When it was dark, Han Mingxiu quietly went to Uncle Zhou's house in the dark of night.

She went to deliver firewood and originally planned to go tomorrow, but later she thought that Uncle Zhou's family now had no firewood. Even if she gave them food and there was no firewood, they would not be able to cook.

Uncle Zhou was seriously injured, and Aunt Zhou had to stay by his side to take care of her. She had no time to go out to pick up firewood. If she went tomorrow, they would have to be hungry for one more day and freezing for one more night.

Although it is not the twelfth lunar month now, it is still very cold. It is a torture for a house without firewood to stay for one minute and one second. Uncle Zhou suffered such a serious injury, which made him hungry for one more day and freeze for one more night, and something unexpected might happen.

In case, she would just send them firewood first.

Sure enough, when he arrived at the Zhou family, the Zhou family was as cold as he had expected, and not only did not have firewood to cook for heating, but also did not even illuminate candles and oil lamps.

When Aunt Zhou saw that Han Mingxiu was here today, she brought them a basket of wood sauts and half a silk bag of coal. She excitedly grabbed Han Mingxiu's hand and kept thanking her.

Han Mingxiu pretended to take out a few candles from the bottom of the backpack and said, "I think you don't have oil lamps anymore. I will bring you a few candles, so you can keep them to illuminate them, right?"

"No need, it's already great if we can eat enough and not get frozen. Why are we still illuminating?"

Aunt Zhou held Han Mingxiu's hand and refused to accept her candle no matter what she said.

She felt that she owed too much to others and was embarrassed to ask for more.

"You just accept it, otherwise if my Uncle Zhou has something to do at night, it will be inconvenient for you to touch Hei'er..." Han Mingxiu insisted on stuffing the candle into her hand.

"But... candles are not cheap either. We really can't ask for your things anymore. We really have nothing to pay you back..." Aunt Zhou said stutteringly.

"Aunt, what you should consider most now is how to heal Uncle Zhou's injuries. Don't take the rest of the small things to heart..." Han Mingxiu insisted on stuffing the candle into her hand.

The two of them were pushing and giving in. Suddenly, a muffled sound came from the darkness.

"Why do you want to... help us?"

"Oh, Lao Zhou, are you awake?"

When Aunt Zhou heard the person on the kang woke up, she didn't bother to pull Han Mingxiu. She walked to the edge of the kang in two steps and asked with concern, "How do you feel? Does the wound still hurt? Are you urinating?"

The man on the kang said quietly, "I'm fine, help me sit up."

What he said about sitting up is not sitting on the kang like a normal person, but just adding two pillows under his back to keep his body tilted. Compared with what he was lying down just now, he just changed his posture slightly.

After helping him sit down, Aunt Zhou had time to introduce him.

"Lao Zhou, this is Comrade Xiao Han introduced to us by Lao Gao, Xiao Han, this is my lover Lao Zhou."

"Hello Uncle Zhou!" Han Mingxiu couldn't see the exact location of Zhou Xilong, so she had to greet him politely in the direction where the voice came from.

Zhou Xilong nodded, indicating that he heard her greetings, and then asked seriously, "You haven't answered me yet, why do you want to help us?"

When Aunt Zhou heard that her man's tone was so serious, she was afraid that Han Mingxiu would be angry, so she hurriedly poked him carefully and whispered, "What are you saying? They are kind enough to help us, and you still ask them what they do? They are like not trusting them."

"It's okay, Aunt Zhou, it's right for Uncle Zhou to be more alert in an extraordinary period." Han Mingxiu was afraid that Aunt Zhou would be dissatisfied, so she comforted her.

Later, he said to Zhou Xilong, "Uncle Zhou, I help you because I think you are a good person. You have contributed to the peace of the motherland, shed blood and sweat for the cause of liberation of the people. People like you should be admired and loved by the people, and should not be treated like this. Now, you have been treated unfairly. I can't help you anything else, so I have to do my best to prevent you from starving and cold. I have no other intentions or other purposes. It's just my respect for the revolutionary predecessors. Please rest assured."

These words were from Han Mingxiu's heart, and she said them very sincerely.

Really, even if he is not rewarded in the future, Han Mingxiu is willing to compensate him for his contributions to the country and the people without compensation based on Zhou Xilong's previous contributions.

Zhou Xilong was very moved when he heard Han Mingxiu's recognition and recognition of him. He looked at the outline of the girl Zhuozhuo in the dark and said, "No matter whether we were wronged or not, we are sinners at present, girl. If you interact with people like us and help people like us, aren't you afraid of being implicated by us?"

"Not afraid!" Han Mingxiu said, "I will be careful with you and will not ask others to catch the handle."

She said this with confidence

There is a lid on her backpack. If someone suspects that she comes to interrogate her, she will take the things in the backpack into space. At that time, she will be a country girl carrying a diabolic basket. What can anyone do with her?

With the magic weapon of space cheating, she certainly doesn't have to worry about anything.

Then, there was silence. After a long time, Zhou Xilong's desolate voice sounded again, "Even you little girl believes in me, but... the organization does not believe in me... I, Zhou Xilong, have been struggling in the rain of bullets for so many years, and I almost went to see Marx for many times, but in the end... I became a rebellious person, haha, haha..."

He smiled bitterly, and his laughter was filled with the vicissitudes and loss of thousands of sails.

Han Mingxiu knew that he was sad, and he felt wronged and depressed, so he advised him, "Uncle Zhou, don't be sad, you won't be like this forever. Justice may be late, but it will never be absent. Your contribution to the country and the people will eventually be recognized by people!"

"Well, this sentence is well said, I love to listen!"

Zhou Xilong felt a lot brighter when he heard Han Mingxiu's words.

In the years he has been here, he has heard words that humiliate and scold him, and he has never heard of them once.

In other words, he was a big heart. If he had been a little-minded and fell from such a high position to this dust, he would have been humiliated and beaten and scolded by those unknown rats, and would have been terrified to death...

"You are right. Justice may be late, but it will never be absent. I must live well and live until the day when justice comes!"

Zhou Xilong shook his arms as if he was cheering himself up.

Han Mingxiu smiled and said, "Uncle, it's right for you to think so. I bet that day will not be too far away. You two must take good care of yourself and prepare for a new life. Otherwise, if you lose your body, what's the point of even if you welcome a new life!"

"Well, we will take good care of ourselves. Thank you, Comrade Xiao Han." Uncle Zhou said.
