Immediately after that, Xia Lan took a few steps forward, still very steady, only she knew that every step would bring her bursts of tingling.

Xia Mu's body, which was standing behind Xia Lan, trembled slightly, and tears of excitement flowed from her weather-beaten face. She was worried that Xia Lan would find out, so she quickly wiped it off and trotted to Xia Lan's side, holding her baby daughter's arm tightly, showing a kind smile, and this smile carried endless emotion, she couldn't forget those days and nights when she couldn't sleep and eat, and she couldn't forget the pain and suffering Xia Lan endured. She trembled her lips and whispered, "Lan Lan, you really did it, my good daughter......"

Xia Lan smiled faintly, turned around slowly, looked at this mother who loved her and was understanding, and said softly: "Mom, what I said must be done." You sit in a chair and I want to walk a little longer. ”

"Okay, mom is with you." Xia Mu let go of Xia Lan, walked to the rattan chair and sat down, watching quietly, thinking......

Xia Mu looked at Xia Lan who was walking back and forth in the courtyard, and after a few times, Xia Lan was already drenched in sweat, and a few strands of green silk were sticking to her flushed face. Xia Mu saw it in her eyes and felt pain in her heart. She knew Xia Lan's competitive and self-reliant nature, but as a mother, she couldn't bear to look at it anymore, and whispered in a consultative tone: "Okay Lanlan, let's exercise here today, can you go back to your room?" ”

"Mom, I'm not tired, walk a little longer." Xia Lan smiled slightly, "I didn't feel it before, it turns out that walking can also bring happiness." ”

Xia's mother was helpless, endured the pain of worrying her heart, and sat on the rattan chair like a pins and needles, she wanted to get up and pull Xia Lan back to the room, but she was worried that Xia Lan's love had just stabilized and made waves again, so she had to persuade her with good words: "Lan Lan, Mom knows that your body is good, but as the saying goes, it takes a hundred days to break your muscles and bones, and you have only started to move around in such a short time, Mom is worried that your body will not be able to bear it......"

"Mom, don't worry, since I can walk, it means that my body can bear it completely." Xia Lan said as she walked, her face looking so natural and calm, "I clearly remember the story that my father told me when I was a child: that story took place on the Sino-Vietnamese border, in order to defend ourselves and fight back and recover the land that was invaded, our soldiers fought bravely and bravely.

The protagonist of the story is a twenty-year-old young man who is not afraid of sacrifice, is witty and brave, and has repeatedly made military exploits, and has been promoted to the commander of the assault battalion in the line of fire, as long as he can return alive after the war, his future will be limitless.

He knew very well that as the supreme commander of the assault battalion, as long as he retreated to the command post at the back of the team, no matter how powerful the enemy's mines and fierce artillery fire were, he would not be able to help him.

When the war is won, he will be the first in the entire battalion to be commended and the first to be knighted. If the assault fails, even if the entire battalion of hundreds of people is killed in Huangquan, he will still be unscathed.

But he didn't do that, he knew that he was a soldier, and even more so an ordinary officer commanding hundreds of men in battle. In his heart, an officer should play an exemplary role, and the highest honor of a soldier is to die on the battlefield, not to shrink back for his own future, let alone be a deserter.

During one of the assaults, he braved enemy fire and rushed far ahead, knowing that in addition to the oncoming rain of bullets, he could step on a mine under his feet at any moment. He treats every comrade-in-arms as his own brother, and he does not want to step on the corpse of his comrade-in-arms to ascend to a higher title.

Under his leadership, the entire assault team bypassed the mines carefully laid by the enemy, and was about to smash the enemy's forward command post. The enemy formed a defensive line and put up stubborn resistance, and they used grenades with great lethality.

The young battalion commander, in order to protect a comrade-in-arms, was blown off by a grenade, but even so, he fought with one hand, commanding the assault battalion to break through the enemy's last barrier with overwhelming force, capturing nine enemy officers alive and capturing nearly a thousand enemy troops.

He stood in front of the enemy with that severed arm, proving to the enemy that a soldier would not be lightly beaten! Supporting the flesh and blood is the soul of the Zheng Zheng army made of steel!

It wasn't until I was older and stumbled upon the scar on my father's arm that I realized that he was the main character in that story, and that as his daughter, I couldn't be too inferior. ”

Xia Mu nodded, her face looked very calm, "Lan Lan, your father has hardly spoken to you over the years, but every word he says will make you unforgettable for life, much better than my chattering mother!" ”

"Mom, that's not what I meant......" Xia Lan frowned slightly and stopped.

Xia Mu was overjoyed, but her face looked very solemn, she waved her hand at Xia Lan, "Lan Lan, sit down, Mom wants to say a few words to you." ”

"Hmm......" Xia Lan was worried that her mother would be angry, so she obediently walked to the rattan chair and sat down, she hugged her mother's shoulders and whispered, "Mom, what do you want to say to me?" ”

"Lan Lan, although you are a daughter, but in your body is the shadow of your father when he was young. After he came back from the front, he was forcibly sent to our hospital by the leaders of his superiors, I am his attending doctor, your father is stubborn, he did not need anesthetics during the operation. Xia Mu's face showed a sweet smile.

Seeing her mother's expression, Xia Lan asked puzzledly, "Mom, what's wrong with you, is there anything ridiculous?" ”

Xia Mu gently patted Xia Lan's back, smiled and whispered, "Your father gave me three reasons. After speaking, Xia Mu paused, she frowned, "Lan Lan, I feel a little cold, can I go back to the room and tell you about it?" ”

"Mom, why don't I get you a piece of clothing," Xia Lan smiled evilly: "After I finish talking to you, I will continue to exercise!" ”

"Dead girl, are you going to deliberately your mother to death!?" Xia Mu slapped Xia Lan's buttocks, "Monkey spirit, monkey spirit, similar to your father when he was young!"

"Of course, otherwise it means that you have a problem, hehe......" Xia Lan laughed.

"Dead girl, stinky girl, getting bolder? I dare to make fun of my mother. Xia Mu feigned anger, but when she saw Xia Lan's little face, she laughed.

Xia Lan kissed her mother gently, stood up with a smile, and walked towards the room with her in her arms, "Mom, I'll accompany you back to the room." Leave me alone, my leg is completely healed. ”

The mother and daughter sat next to each other on the sofa in the living room, and Xia Mu took Xia Lan's hand and said, "The first reason your father told me is that he and Guan Gong are fellow villagers, and he can't be ashamed of his hometown." ”

Xia Lan nodded, suddenly shook her head again, and said with wide eyes: "Mom, I remember that my hometown is not Yuncheng, Jin Province?" ”
