Lin Yutong touched his head but didn't say anything.

Yang Zi was depressed for a while before saying: "On Sunday, many classmates go to exchange political opinions and experiences. Anyway, everyone says whatever they want. I also see several people going to go there for a long time. They can freely form associations and associations. Now the club is very active. If anyone feels that their opinions are mature, they can also post a notice saying that they will give a speech on which day and at which time. Students who are interested in seeing the notice can go and listen to it. Sister, don't be busy all day long, go out for a walk when you have time. Listen to what everyone says."

"You didn't go to give a speech?" Lin Yutong gave him a blank look.

Yang Zi laughed and said, "I can't be such a student leader. But the atmosphere here is free! Try it in Beijing in Shanghai and try it elsewhere. When you see a student gathering, you will disperse first and then detain the student leader. I have been locked up twice. It can be seen that I am still immature. Now, I'm still listening quietly to what others say."

That's good! This is the manifestation of maturity.

After talking for a long time, it was time to eat, he remembered to ask, "Where is my brother-in-law? Haven't you come back yet?"

Lin Yutong shook her head: "No! Don't inquire about this, don't mention it to classmates." She changed the topic, "Where is Chen Chen? Why didn't you come?"

Yang Zi smiled uncomfortable: "Students always have their own business."

Lin Yutong's expression became solemn: "What's wrong? I'm blowing!"

"Oh, what do you mean by me?" Yang Zi smiled, "Little girls, they all admire heroes."

That's going to be broken.

"I still think that you have a emotional foundation and will not break up easily." Lin Yutong sighed, "Okay! How old are you now? You will only be in your early thirties after more than ten years. Don't hurry to get married."

Yang Zi smiled and said, "I understand a lot from my mother, so I won't get stuck in this regard. Don't worry about me. And getting married now is actually even more cumbersome. You and your brother-in-law have never had children, so that's what I think about."

First love is fragile, and it is in the current atmosphere. A mature man who has experienced it is more charming and more at ease than these young people. If a girl didn’t choose Yang Zi, Lin Yutong couldn’t say that she was wrong. However, there are probably many situations like Yang Zi and Chen Chen. How many lovers who come together can stand the test?

The city has been very lively recently, with slogans and organization personnel, saying that Jiang sent an inspection team to Yan'an. It was a party and a banquet, but it was a busy party anyway.

Lin Yutong's two English-speaking female students were also transferred to work at the social office. That night, Lin Yutong was on duty. After twelve o'clock, Qian Ni came in from outside and whispered: "The long guard is here, please tell you to come here immediately."

Lin Yutong thought that someone was feeling unwell, so she was shocked. She brought a medical box when she left. But when she arrived at a strange yard, she saw her waiting at the door, "A friend came here and wanted to see you. She trusts you very much, go and see you."

As he said that, he also took Lin Yutong's medical box.

Lin Yutong was completely confused. When she opened the door and went in, she saw a woman in military uniform standing under the oil lamp. When she heard the movement, she turned around and Lin Yutong was startled: "Are you Yu Xiaoman?"

"How long hasn't been seen? As for how surprised?" Yu Xiaoman walked over and reached out to shake Lin Yutong, "I knew that you wouldn't die like this easily."

Lin Yutong was still as if she was dreaming: "I really didn't expect to see you here." She looked at the other person up and down, remembering the words she had just said that this was a friend. A friend rather than a comrade, which proved that Yu Xiaoman was not an insider. "Sit down!" She took the other person's hand and sat down, poured another cup of tea and handed over: "Did you come with the inspection team?"

Yu Xiaoman nodded, "Yes!"

Lin Yutong smiled and didn't say anything. Yu Xiaoman was originally an agent, and she came, not just for investigation.

Yu Xiaoman laughed: "Of course, it's also to collect some information."

You are honest. Thinking of the two of you sitting together proves that Yu Xiaoman has a certain consciousness, and the boss outside calls herself in, I am afraid she can convince her to work for Yan'an.

Lin Yutong's heart roamed around and smiled, "What have you collected?"

"I've been on the way for three days." Yu Xiaoman held the teacup and drew circles back and forth, "I came here, lived in the social room, and served us right! It's a service. The young 17 or 18-year-old who serves us, who are called little ghosts, will speak a few simple foreign languages. Even the aunts who clean up the bedding and clean the sanitation will read newspapers. Even the uncle who delivers food and water can accurately say that it appears in the joint anti-Japanese policy. After entering the city, there are no bunkers, no guards, or even no police. Although there are people wearing military uniforms everywhere, it seems that these people do all their work. They get up in the morning to fetch water for the people's homes and chop firewood and sweep the yards for the people. People on the street are not afraid of soldiers. They sell how they should sell them. No one comes to collect protection fees, and there is no need to worry that people with guns will not pay for things. I see many young people rushing to rush to the people.

When I signed up for the army, no one forced them, no one was escorted, and I was not afraid of running away at all. On the street, I have never heard anyone criticizing your leaders, respecting their words, and there was no political attack or chatting. I have never seen a guard beside your leaders, who could walk outside at will, and everyone knew them. There were no tobacco shops, prostitutes, beggars, and tramps on the streets here, as if everyone was very busy. Including women, there were no titles like wives, only lesbians. There were no cheongsams, high heels, lipsticks, everyone wore the same, but they looked confident and arrogant. There were many students here, and their ideals seemed to be frontlines and battlefields. There was no defeatism, no war-weariness, and high morale. Although it looked a bit self-righteous and ridiculous." As she said that, she paused, "This was different from what I had imagined before."

Lin Yutong nodded: "This is a good thing, what do you think is bad?"

Yu Xiaoman drank the already cold tea and said, "It is an indisputable fact that poverty and backwardness are the least important in the current situation. I am not talking about this. Do you know? I asked the same questions for the people who serve us, but no matter who they are, the answers given to us are similar. It is not surprising that they answered the same policy, but if they asked their evaluation of ancient and modern figures, even such subjective questions are the same, just like mathematical and chemistry formulas. Isn't this very strange? But this is not the strangest, after all, this is a public question, but when I ask private questions, such as their views on love, marriage, partner choice, family, etc., the answers they get are basically similar, which makes people not only find it strange, but also find it difficult to understand."

"So, do you suspect this is controlling ideas?" Lin Yutong raised her eyebrows and asked.

Yu Xiaoman nodded, "So, I want to get the answer from you. You are not a person who can easily be influenced by others. If you say no, I believe you."

"No!" Lin Yutong answered very simply, "There are many reasons for this. You live here for a while, for a month or two. With your keenness, you will soon have your own answer." As she said, she paused, "If you insist on me giving you an answer, I can explain it to you like this. First, life here is basically standardized. There is no big difference between food, clothing, housing and transportation. Life is standardized, so everyone's hopes, needs, interests, interests, and feelings for life are gradually becoming consistent. The living environment determines ideology, you can understand this. Let me give you an example.

For example, when we have a meeting together, we will say that this person has been promoted to the artillery commander. What would you think after hearing this? I thought it was a promotion? No! This so-called artillery is not a real artillery, but a sucking soldier! When digging a cave, the blood bubbles in the palm of your hand make fun of each other and make fun of each other. Whoever has more artillery will be called the commander. People who are not Yan'an can't understand this joke. Because you have not been integrated into the atmosphere of life. Second, this is also a problem of organizing activities. Everyone has a lot of discussions in groups. Collective wisdom is instilled into everyone's mind, and the answer you get must be similar."

"Don't have personal thoughts?" Yu Xiaoman looked at Lin Yutong, as if it was difficult to understand.

"It's not that there is no thought, but that the thoughts of many people have condensed into collective wisdom." Lin Yutong sighed, "Everyone you see is not a hero, and individual heroism is not advocated here. But everyone is the cell of this collective."

As we were talking, the door was knocked, and the kitchen team delivered the meal and quickly put it on the table. It is rare to add midnight snacks.

White rice, scrambled eggs with green onions.

Lin Yutong handed over the chopsticks: "Thank you for eating. This is the treatment of foreign guests." Only a few foreigners can enjoy the treatment of eating white rice here.

Yu Xiaoman smiled: "It's hard to imagine that you can endure this hardship if you pursue a refined life like this."

Lin Yutong did not answer this question, but smiled and said, "How is it? Is it that I want to turn the darkness into the light when I can see me here?" This is a bit joking test.

Yu Xiaoman gave Lin Yutong a blank look: "When Bai Kun can send the equipment back, I didn't tell you who was the one who was in charge at the critical moment?"

"We are disciplined, and I won't listen if I shouldn't tell me." Lin Yutong ordered her food, "But you helped, where are you? Have you been revealed?"

Yu Xiaoman shook his head: "That's not. You know, Zheng Dong has some of his own plans, but he always turns a blind eye to major events. He believes in multiple friends and multiple ways. As for Qiao Handong, we have always been disagreeing. I persevered in complaining about him, and he persevered in complaining about me. The two of them attacked each other, but no one above believed us. They all felt that it was because of the dog biting the dog and getting really angry. After Double Twelve, I was transferred back to the attendant room."

"Are you in the attendant's room now?" Lin Yutong was startled.

Yu Xiaoman nodded: "I have a certain mission when I come here this time. Bai Kun has reported my situation to your leader again. I have obviously been doing my job these two days. I proposed to meet you, but I didn't expect to see you. I treat you as a friend. Can you tell me how I choose?"

This question is hard to answer.

"No one can make a decision on behalf of anyone." Lin Yutong said this first.

Yu Xiaoman laughed: "I thought you would lobby me."

Lin Yutong shook her head: "There is a saying that you can't tie up a couple, and there is another saying that you can force your head to hold your head if you don't drink water. How can I still not understand this principle? You asked me, but I want to ask back, why did you leave the People's Party?"

"Anti-Japanese war! Revolution!" Yu Xiaoman's eyes became blurred, "And my fiancé."

Lin Yutong frowned: "Do you still care about him?"

"No!" Yu Xiaoman smiled sarcastically, "So stupid!"

"Have you found him?" Lin Yutong looked at Yu Xiaoman, and saw tears flashing in her eyes. She said, "I found it."

This expression must have made the ending not very good.

Sure enough, Yu Xiaoman slapped the table, "The bastard got married soon after he evacuated from Liaodong. Not only did he get married, but he also raised two female students outside. I found him, but he didn't go to look for him, and there was no need to meet again."

Lin Yutong was silent for a long time but didn't know how to comfort her. After a long time, she said: "Since that's the case, let's not talk about him. Just think that you died in Liaodong, and your heart will be better. Let's get back to the point and only talk about the purpose of your revolution. Let's put it this way, the People's Party has long lost its revolutionary nature, and the Workers and Peasants Party, because of its hardship and its hardship, still needs to continue to struggle and revolution."

Yu Xiaoman stood up and walked back and forth around the house for a long time, saying, "I understand what you mean." She looked out, "It's getting late, it's almost dawn. It's time for me to leave. Even if I'm still staying here for a few days, it's probably not easy to get in touch with you. So, after we parted this time, it's probably difficult to meet. Speaking of which, we are also strange, but it's rare to feel a relationship. I hope we'll be alive next time we meet."

Lin Yutong sighed, got up and hugged her: "Take care!"

"Take care!" Yu Xiaoman patted Lin Yutong's back, "Take it for me, Mr. Jin." After that, he let go of Lin Yutong, opened the door and walked out with great strides.

Lin Yutong sat alone in the house and sat quietly for a long time.

The door opened again, and it was long: "I heard what you said. It was very good. Based on your understanding of her, how much do you think there is a chance to fight for?"

"It's done." Lin Yutong added, "In the past, she always did things in the capital. She only asked for her help, and there was no time to refuse. I think she had already realized our political attitude at that time. But she could still help quietly, which itself illustrates the problem."

He also talked about some of Yu Xiaoman's situations, and emphasized the principle of confidentiality before leaving, so Lin Yutong was sent back to the hospital by the guards.

Seeing Yu Xiaoman was a surprise. For two consecutive days, Lin Yutong was worried about this. Later, because the inspection team was going to visit the hospital, she met again like a stranger.

In June of the Gregorian calendar, the weather is getting hotter and hotter. But summer in the cave is easy to spend. Especially for people in the cave, at noon, the temperature inside the cave can be about ten degrees different from that outside. Anyway, when taking a nap in the cave, you have to cover it with a thin quilt.

The vegetables in the yard have grown up, so I must have enough food at home. I can't finish it and I'll send them to the hospital cafeteria to add vegetables to the wounded. This year's spinach grows very well. In this season, spinach is elders. But no one is willing to waste it. This thing is a wealthy dish. Rich people like it and love its green and green vinegar. People who don't have money hate it. This thing grows easily. How many crops can be planted a year is really tired of eating. Lin Yutong didn't know before that everyone didn't like it, so they couldn't understand the expression of being reluctant to speak every time Qian Ni delivers vegetables. Finally, Lin Yutong found out and asked Qian Ni to buy a lot of eggs to send. Don't tell people that we are stingy.

The closer it was to July, the more anxious Lin Yutong became. Especially the Fourth Master no longer had any more, and there was not even a person to discuss it. In the end, he opposed the opposition and called on the hospital and students to dig air-raid shelters together.
