Chapter 212: You Are My Father (2/3)
Yang Chen was a little nervous.
Since knowing the identity of Zhuo Jingyu's father, Yang Chen had imagined countless scenes of meeting in his mind, but he didn't expect to meet at this funeral and in the mourning hall.
Perhaps, this is Zhuo Jingyu's arrangement in the sky.
It seems that Zhuo Jingyu was telling Yang Chen that Yang Chen should have gone to his funeral.
However, at that time, Yang Chen only hid in the confinement room, secretly repenting and blaming himself in the dark......
He forgot that there was an old man who wanted to send his son away with his own hands, which was far more than a hundred times more painful than Yang Chen.
Yang Chen, who was not afraid of heaven and earth, was a little timid at this time, and he didn't know what to say after seeing Zhuo Lao.
Taking a few deep breaths, Yang Chen adjusted his state and said to Xiao Wang, "Take me to see Zhuo Lao!"
Ye Xin noticed the situation on Yang Chen's side, walked over and pulled Yang Chen's arm and asked, "What's wrong?"
Yang Chen glanced at Ye Xin, took a deep breath, squeezed out a reluctant smile and said, "I'm going to see an elder, you can accompany Xue Qing here." ”
"No, I'll go with you!" Ye Xin sensed that something was wrong with Yang Chen and felt his nervousness.
At this moment, Ye Xin must stand by Yang Chen's side and support Yang Chen.
Yang Chen looked at Ye Xin deeply, smiled slightly, gently stroked Ye Xin's jade hand on his arm, and said softly: "Then let's go together!"
Ye Xin nodded and followed Yang Chen out.
Outside the mourning hall, Zhuo Lao was talking to Li Muyang and a few people.
Yang Chen saw Zhuo Lao at a glance.
His memories immediately returned to the day of Zhuo Jingyu's death.
An old man with gray hair sat in front of the grave, letting the mountain wind blow and let the scorching sun spark, squinting his eyes, quietly enjoying the feeling of being with his son Yingling.
At this moment, Yang Chen's nose is pantothenic.
Zhuo Lao and the three also saw Yang Chen, stopped talking, and looked towards Yang Chen.
Yang Chen broke free of Ye Xin and strode towards Zhuo Lao.
Looking at Yang Chen's serious face, Zhuo Lao also became serious.
Li Muyang and Zhao Wende's expressions also became heavy, and they could feel the momentum on Yang Chen's body.
It was a mountain, a dragon, coming from afar, overwhelming, sweeping a piece of the land, so that people could not ignore it.
"What a momentum!" Zhuo Lao also secretly praised in his heart, "It is worthy of Jingyu's soldiers!"
Walking to him, Yang Chen knelt directly on his knees!
This startled everyone present.
Ye Xin covered his mouth in shock.
Zhang Shaoting, who was following from afar, also widened his eyes.
In Zhang Shaoting's eyes, Yang Chen is definitely a man who stands up to the sky, but he didn't expect to kneel down to others.
It's just that this kneeling did not reduce Yang Chen's image in Zhang Shaoting's heart at all, but felt even taller.
Men should be like this, sit on the knees and bend their knees, and do not bend their waists!
Zhuo Lao was also taken aback by Yang Chen's actions.
Li Muyang hurriedly went to support Yang Chen.
Yang Chen frowned and stretched out his hand in a plaster cast to stop Li Muyang.
He stared at Zhuo Lao, looking at Zhuo Lao's old cheeks seriously.
The man has gold under his knees, kneeling to the sky and kneeling to his parents, and for Zhuo Lao, it is Zhuo Jingyu's father, that is, Yang Chen's father, this kneeling, one is kneeling for Zhuo Jingyu, kneeling unfilial son remnants of the white-haired father is suffering alone in the world.
The second is for Yang Chen himself, implicating Zhuo Jingyu's sacrifice.
The third is Yang Chen himself, who didn't know how to send black and white pain, and did not go to Zhuo Jingyu's funeral.
"Elder Zhuo!" Yang Chen's eyes were red, the corners of his mouth trembled slightly, and his voice trembled, "Please allow me to call you father for the instructor!"
Zhuo Lao was stunned for a moment, his whole body seemed to have been shocked, he trembled, and the whole person took a step back uncontrollably, looking at Yang Chen in surprise, his face was full of excitement, and a turbid mist rose in his eyes.
"The instructor is sacrificed for me, this worship, for my instructor Zhuo Jingyu, Zhuo Lao, your son. ”
Yang Chen bowed deeply.
"Zhuo Jingyu, an unfilial son, is ashamed of his biological father, he can't support the elderly, and he can't take care of his father by his side!"
Yang Chen got up, looked at Zhuo Lao, and said in a deep voice: "Second kneeling, I, Yang Chen, am ashamed of Zhuo Lao, and let you lose this son." ”
Yang Chen bowed down again, his forehead touched the bottom, and there was a muffled sound.
"Three knees, young and ignorant, I only know that I blame myself, I didn't go to the funeral, and I forgot that the instructor and an old father like you, for so many years, I am ashamed of the instructor and you Zhuo!"
Zhuo Lao left two lines of tears, turned his back to the sky, and sighed: "Jingyu, you have such a good brother and such a soldier, you don't have to worry about me anymore!"
After speaking, Zhuo Lao bent down to help Yang Chen up, pulled Yang Chen and said, "Silly boy, the matter is over, you don't have to blame yourself so much." ”
Yang Chen shook his head, "If it weren't for me......"
"Eh, don't say it again!" Zhuo Lao frowned and said: "I am very proud of what Jing Yu has done, he is a soldier, and it is his life to die on the battlefield, and it is also what he must do." And I also believe that if it were you, you would have made the same choice as Jing Yu without hesitation. Yang Chen, if Jing Yu was asked to choose again, he would still do it, because ...... You deserve it!"
Yang Chen was stunned.
Zhuo Lao was right.
If Yang Chen was asked to do this, Yang Chen would also block the bullet for Zhuo Jingyu.
If he chooses again, Yang Chen will do it again.
Because this is the brothers, this is the soldiers.
The fate of the military is like this, one generation is passed on from generation to another, and it is this spirit that changes the old face for the new!
"Zhuo Lao...... No! Jing Yu is my brother, he sacrificed for me with me, Zhuo Lao, you will be my father in the future! If you don't dislike it, treat me as an instructor, treat me as your son, I will be filial to you for Jing Yu, and provide for you in old age!" Yang Chen looked at Zhuo Lao nervously.
If there is anything Yang Chen's biggest regret in this life, it is to let Zhuo Jingyu sacrifice for himself.
And after knowing that Zhuo Jingyu also had an old father, Yang Chen blamed himself even more.
Only blame him for being stupid, only blame him for being stupid! How could he not think that Zhuo Jingyu still had a family?
At the beginning, I promised my comrades-in-arms that whoever died first, who was alive, would take care of the parents' parents and family of my comrades-in-arms.
But Yang Chen couldn't do it, he was ashamed of Zhuo Jingyu.
When Zhuo Lao heard Yang Chen's words, he was even more excited, and laughed: "Okay, good!
He turned his head to look at Li Muyang and said, "Muyang, don't you hear it, I still have a son!"
Li Muyang smiled: "Congratulations to Uncle Zhuo!"
As he spoke, Li Muyang quietly wiped away his tears, he knew how this old man had come over all these years. Now, Yang Chen's willingness to take on this responsibility also makes Li Muyang feel a lot of relief, and even makes Zhuo Lao happy, all of which is worth it.
Zhao Wende also said: "Congratulations to Elder Zhuo! Congratulations to Brother Yang!"
Yang Chen also looked at Zhuo Lao in surprise, he didn't expect Zhuo Lao to accept him so easily, and he didn't blame him.
Zhuo Lao pulled Yang Chen and said with a smile: "Yang Chen, you said this well, I am worried that there are no children around me, if you are willing, be my godson, and also meet the wishes of me, a lonely old man with no children and no daughters." ”
