Jiang Xiaolin's breath was suffocated. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

"What?"

Although she knew that Yu Zhenye was a soldier, she never thought that he would one day set foot on the battlefield. In her previous life, she had lived a peaceful life for thirty years, and war had always been far away from her, and she never thought that she would face such a situation one day.

"My eldest brother said that maybe our country is about to go to war, and their troops are likely to go to the front line at that time, and I am really afraid that my eldest brother will have an accident. Yu Ying sobbed and said, "He didn't tell us, and he didn't let us talk about it when he was at home, so a few days ago, I didn't dare to mention it to anyone." When I saw him off today, I suddenly felt so scared, afraid that something would happen to my brother. ”

Jiang Xiaolin was also very flustered in her heart, she couldn't help but grit her teeth and force herself to calm down. This bastard guy, he was going to the front, but he didn't mention it to himself just now. Could it be that in his heart, he didn't need to know that he was going to the front and that he was likely to encounter dangerous things?

Thinking hatefully in his heart, he comforted Yu Ying: "Yingzi, your eldest brother is a soldier, and the duty of a soldier is to protect the family and defend the country." If the country does go to war and chooses your brother's unit to go to the front, then he will definitely not be a deserter. He is a responsible soldier of the new era, and you should be proud to have such an older brother. ”

"I know, but I'm still worried. Yu Ying lowered her head.

"As a family member, it's inevitable that you'll be worried. Jiang Xiaolin also sighed, "But you should still support his decision, don't let him be distracted on the battlefield because he is worried about his family, that will only be more dangerous." ”

Yu Ying still can't understand that fighting is such a dangerous thing, there are veterans who fought during the Anti-Japanese War in the village, most of them are injured, and some of them are missing arms and legs, but they all think they are lucky to survive. Many of their former comrades-in-arms have sacrificed for the sake of New China. Now that her eldest brother is also going to the battlefield, she is already very unwilling if she can't stop it, why should she support him?

"Isn't it that the war hasn't started yet, don't think too much about it yet, everything is still unknown. Jiang Xiaolin touched Yu Ying's head, "Your father and mother...... Do you know this?"

"I know, my dad didn't say anything, but my mother was going to cry when she mentioned it, she wanted my eldest brother to leave the army, but my eldest brother didn't want to. ”

It is human nature, what mother can not worry about her son, and it is a son who is about to step on the battlefield.

Jiang Xiaolin sighed secretly, in modern times, many girls are reluctant to marry soldiers, because most of the soldiers have to stay in the station for a long time, and the two can spend very little time together. And in this era, marrying a soldier and being a military family is still a very honorable thing. However, when the war is together, the partner has to embark on the journey, and no matter how glorious it is, it is difficult to hide this bitterness.

Yu Ying went home, and Jiang Xiaolin pondered when to write the first letter to Yu Zhenye.

If you start writing now, will you seem too eager and scare him, but if you start writing too late, you are afraid that if the unit he is in will make any moves, you will not be able to receive your letter at that time. After thinking about it, she decided that it would be better to wait for her cousin's marriage to end, that is, three or four days later, and then write a letter to him.

That night, Wang Xiulian came back and brought Jiang Xiaolin unexpected news.

"Today, a woman came to me on the platform, saying that she was looking for you and discussing business with you, and she said that her surname was Liu, and I guess it was your Aunt Liu. ”

"It should be, but what's the matter with her looking for me?" Jiang Xiaolin didn't want to see any changes in her business.

"They didn't tell me, so I didn't ask, it doesn't seem like a bad thing. You go to her house tomorrow, anyway, I keep saying that I want to send money to her house, and we happen to be together, and I will give you money after dinner. ”

Although Wang Xiulian is a rural woman with little education, she is not the temperament of three aunts and six mothers-in-law. She doesn't like to inquire about things that people don't say, and she doesn't like to chew his wife's tongue with the women in the village, and because of this, her popularity in the village is very good, and she loves to talk to her when everyone has something.

"Tomorrow, the day after tomorrow is my cousin's big day, I'll help at home, and I'll go back when I'm done with our family's happy event." ”

"What's the need for you to do anything, I won't be doing business tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, I'll just be at home." If it's not urgent, people won't find the train station, so you might as well go and have a look. In the past six months, the family has made a lot of money from this small food truck, and Wang Xiulian, like Jiang Xiaolin, is afraid that something will happen to her business.

"Oh well. ”

Jiang Xiaolin was not as worried as Wang Xiulian, and the next morning she took a bus to the county seat and knocked on the door of Liu Rong's house.

"Aunt Liu, have a good New Year. ”

As soon as Liu Rong opened the door, she saw Jiang Xiaolin's bright smile and heard her crisp New Year's greetings.

"Xiaolin, come in. Liu Rong liked Jiang Xiaolin in her heart, and she was very happy to see her, but she just said a few words to her when she saw the New Year's gift she was carrying.

"Isn't this the New Year, I usually don't take anything when I come, it's all the local products of the family, Aunt Liu, you can accept it, and you should try it." ”

Jiang Xiaolin didn't tell a lie, in addition to the mushrooms and pine nuts produced in the mountains, what she brought was Wang Xiulian's own meat sausage and egg sausage, although it didn't cost anything, but they were all delicious things that could not be bought outside.

Liu Rong didn't shirk anymore, let Jiang Xiaolin sit down, and began to talk to her about business.

"I'm looking for you to tell you about business. What do you think this is?" Liu Rong took out a plate of dim sum, and Jiang Xiaolin looked at it, it turned out to be the jujube cake that her aunt sold on the platform. This jujube cake was originally taught by Jiang Xiaolin to Wang Xiulian, but later when Wang Xiulian made jujube cake, she added pine nuts from the mountains, and the taste was even sweeter.

"What's wrong with this date cake?"

"This jujube cake is good, you listen to me first...... You, Aunt Liu, and I work in a food factory in our county. In the past two years, the efficiency of the factory has not been very good. The main reason is that there are more and more people doing food business outside, and our factory has not produced any new food for several years, and even the supply and marketing cooperatives have come to us to buy less. Our factory director, let everyone brainstorm, make suggestions, I immediately remembered your jujube cake, I took it to the factory leaders to taste, everyone said good. Liu Rong said brightly, "The factory means that you want to buy out this jujube cake, if you agree, I'll take you, let's go to the factory and talk about the price." ”

It turned out to be this way.

Jiang Xiaolin thought about it and felt that she couldn't just agree, she had to go home and discuss it with her uncle and aunt, after all, it was not her own business.

As soon as she told Liu Rong her thoughts, Liu Rong could also understand, and the two agreed to meet again, and Jiang Xiaolin left her house.

On the way back to the village, Jiang Xiaolin saw a photo studio, and her heart moved, and she decided to wear good clothes and take two photos next time she came to the city, and also sent one to Yu Zhenye's stinky man, so that even if he went to the battlefield, he would have a thought. When people are worried, they will be more careful when they act on their own.

Jiang Xiaolin smiled proudly and walked briskly towards the station.
