Chapter 74: To the Ground
Miao Dongqing's eyes were still red, and there were unwiped tears hanging from the corners of his eyes.
Du Juan held his hand and felt that hand trembled slightly.
Miao Dongqing tried his best to control himself, and said with trembling lips, "Don't worry about me, I haven't seen any winds and waves for so many years, and my uncle is strong!" β
I haven't known my niece for two years, and the relationship between them needs to be further strengthened, but now it's too late, the child wants to go with her husband to join the army, and it must be false to say that he is not uncomfortable. But no matter how uncomfortable and reluctant he is, he can't stop the reunion of his husband and wife.
"Uncle, listen well, it's been a few years since you saw the dawn sun, such troubled times will eventually pass, and there will be many places where you need to help when the time comes, you must hold on." Du Juan had to nag a few words.
Although Miao Dongqing's body is not badly conditioned by her, after all, he is still a counter-revolutionary, and he can't be too prominent in his clothing and food, and his behavior must be even more careful. She was afraid that she was not by his side, and if something happened, she really couldn't save the near fire.
Miao Dongqing was taken aback after hearing this, these words were not something that could be said casually, but he didn't ask Du Juan how he knew or how he was so convinced, he just nodded vigorously and instructed, "Child, don't worry, uncle won't let him have trouble."
Over the years, the above's supervision of us has been loosened a lot, as long as we honestly accept labor reform every day, and report every morning and evening, they will not trouble us, so don't worry about your uncle. But you have to be careful when you are outside, people are very aggressive nowadays, and if you are not careful, you will get out of control, so you should pay more attention to yourself......"
No amount of words can match the pain of parting, Du Juan carefully remembered everyone who came to see her off, and hoped that these people would be safe and healthy in the future.
The horn of the train had sounded, and Lin Aijun and Du Juan had finished their luggage one by one with the help of the three brothers of the Du family and Zhao Jinlong, who was stunned to see them off.
Seeing that the train was about to leave, the brothers still pulled them and reluctantly said words that could never be finished. At the urging of the flight attendants. Several people had to squeeze off the train, stand outside, keep waving their hands, and send the train away. only to leave home silently.
Du Juan had never experienced the Spring Festival, but she had seen the overcrowding during the Spring Festival.
She just went to the toilet and almost couldn't squeeze back into the trunk she was in.
With the help of Du Shirong Tong GuΓ² Qian Hongwei, Lin Aijun and Du Juan bought two soft sleepers. This is not a problem that can be solved with money, it has to have a certain relationship.
But nevertheless. The lanes were still crowded with passengers who didn't have seats at all. Du Juan traveled all the way, she almost stepped on other people's feet several times, and her feet came out several times, but the shoes accidentally lost contact with her, and she was not embarrassed.
"Why did you go for so long?" Lin Aijun handed her an apple that had been peeled and asked worriedly.
"Don't mention it, the road outside is full of people, and there is not even a place to plug in, you say, this is not the peak period for the New Year's holiday. How can there be so many people? Du Juan exhaled a turbid breath, held the apple and patted her chest with palpitations and sighed.
"This train has the longest route, passing through several major stations, and each big station is located in a city that is not smaller than ours, do you say there will be not many people? And I estimate that tomorrow there will be more people. β
You said that there are few people who can go out, but there are also few means of transportation for ordinary people to go out. What else can you sit a little further away from the train?
There is an endless stream of people who go to the mountains and go to the countryside, do you say there will be fewer people?
Lin Aijun is used to it. He used to go back and forth to the army, and he sat on a hard seat with everyone.
Sometimes when he met an elderly person, he got up and gave way to the other party, and he stood all the way. Like this time, in order to make the two of them more comfortable on the road, the eldest brother was stunned for a few days earlier, and he asked for favors and gave things, so he bought two soft sleeper tickets.
"I'm going to die. There are so many people, I have a hard time going to the toilet. Du Juan never thought that there would be so many people on the train, "You don't know, when I just went to the toilet, there were all people in it, if I hadn't driven everyone out with a hard attitude, I guess I would have to pee my pants." β
"Hehe......"
"Laugh at the fart!" With a slightly red face, Du Juan turned her head a little awkwardly and took a vicious bite of the apple, as if she had bitten into Lin Aijun's body.
"Didn't you bring the spittoon with you, or you might as well use that for the next two days, at most I'll go out to avoid you?" Lin Aijun kindly said.
"We'll talk about it then." Du Juan still felt a little embarrassed, since Lin Aijun came back, she hadn't gone to the toilet in the house. Now if she was to pee under his nose in such a small car, she was afraid that she might not be able to pull out a drop of urine if she sat for a long time.
Sure enough, as Lin Aijun said, wait for the next day, the road outside can no longer be described as crowded, black crows and crows, either people or luggage, Du Juan is completely dead, she no longer whimsically wants to squeeze to the bathroom to go to the toilet, so she has to listen to Lin Aijun's opinion, and take out the spittoon that Sang Chunhua was stunned to let them bring to solve the three emergencies.
Fortunately, when approaching the destination, the passengers got off the bus one after another, which also made Du Juan breathe a sigh of relief. The car compartment was filled with a foul smell of urine all the time, making her uncomfortable whether she was sleeping or eating.
"Put on a cotton jacket and go out again, in the first half of the day, it is estimated that it will already be snowing there." Lin Aijun neatly took out the old padded jackets of the two from the duffel bag, handed one of them to Du Juan, and asked her to put it on.
"It's colder than yesterday." When Du Juan got out of the bed, she shivered. After a night of travel, the train has entered the north. And it's hard to see greenery outside, and when you look out the car window, it's all deserted and inaccessible.
"How long will it take to get to the ground, I really want to get out of the car right away." Du Juan bit the hard steamed bun and muttered.
"Let you buy a hot dish, you are not only expensive, but also say that it doesn't look like it can be eaten." Lin Aijun glared, "If I hadn't pulled you in just now, you would have to be wheeled by the other party with a spoonful of vegetable juice." β
"Hmph, I'm just telling the truth, who asked her to cook the food as well as pig food." Du Juan wrinkled her nose and pouted. She would rather nibble on cold and hard steamed buns than eat dishes that are cooked together with something she doesn't know what to use.
"If you're so squeamish, you'll suffer in the future." Lin Aijun shook his head. "Our place is quite far from the outside, and it is even more inconvenient to go out, especially in winter, and the food is nothing but cabbage and potatoes or turnips. I think you'd better stay for a while and go back. β
"If I don't go back, you don't want to get rid of me." Du Juan was not moved at all, she had a way to solve what Lin Aijun said, but she said it now. I'm afraid that the other party won't believe it.
Therefore, she still waited for some achievements and then asked him if he still wanted to send her back.
Seeing that the other party was so excited, Lin Aijun didn't continue the topic just now, he thought that after the other party experienced it himself, he would definitely let him send her back.
After another night, the train finally came to a slow stop.
Du Juan and Lin Aijun had already gathered all their luggage, but obviously, they didn't expect that there would be so much luggage. At this time, they were all a little dumbfounded.
"How can there be so many, how did we get it when we got in the car?" Du Juan carried this and mentioned that, she didn't know which one to mention first.
"Alas, I miscalculated, there were three brothers and your nominal apprentice to help at that time, and I forgot that we didn't help with the luggage when we got out of the car." Lin Aijun spread his hands, quite embarrassed.
Du Juan looked outside, then at the luggage, and then at Lin Aijun, who was also frowning.
"Or you get out of the car in a minute. I handed my luggage down the window, and then, I looked at the luggage, and you can see if you can find a car or someone to help you carry it outside the station? β
"That's a good idea. Let's do as you say. Lin Aijun gave her a praising look, "Fortunately, we got off at the terminal, otherwise we would have to jump out of the window to move all the luggage before the car started." β
"Hmph, don't look at who I am, just such a simple problem can't be solved."
Du Juan's stinky fart. directly amused Lin Aijun.
"Captain, here." Ma Cannon jumped and waved his hands vigorously, and as soon as Zheng Weiguo saw Lin Aijun coming out, he squeezed against the flow of people.
"Captain, didn't my sister-in-law come with you, why are you alone? And Captain, where's your luggage? After Zheng Weiguo hugged Lin Aijun vigorously, he immediately asked suddenly.
"There's too much luggage, she's watching inside, and I'm out to find someone to help." Lin Aijun was very excited in his heart, his comrades-in-arms, his troops, he Lin Aijun was back.
"Stupid bear, why don't you come over quickly, what are you doing standing there stupidly?" Zheng Weiguo yelled at the back, and the frightened pedestrians on the side avoided it one after another, but it was convenient for the horse cannon to come over.
"Captain, where's my sister-in-law?"
"Looks like I'm not as popular as your sister-in-law."
"How can that, it's just that you can't cook, captain, of course we are looking forward to having more sisters-in-law, hehe......" Ma Cannon touched his head and smiled.
"Okay, don't play tricks, don't hurry up and pick up your luggage." Lin Aijun raised his leg and swept over, Ma Cannon didn't look at him like a big stupid bear, but his movements were very neat, and he immediately jumped to avoid running away.
"Captain, sweep me as soon as you come, I'm going to tell my sister-in-law to go and let you sleep on the cold kang at night."
"Just you talk a lot." Lin Aijun scolded helplessly, and squeezed back with the two of them.
"Hello sister-in-law."
As soon as Zheng Weiguo and Ma Dacang saw Du Juan, they immediately greeted each other in a formal manner.
"Who are you pretending to show you, why don't you hurry up and move your luggage." Lin Aijun couldn't stand it anymore, these people were always challenging his patience in front of him, and he couldn't wait to drill them from time to time.
"Yes."
Both of them went to carry their luggage honestly, while Du Juan took advantage of the fact that the two were not paying attention, and quietly asked Lin Aijun, "What's wrong?" The anger is so big, it's like eating firecrackers. β
"It's okay, you take some light ones, and you'll follow them in a moment." Lin Aijun couldn't explain what he was thinking, his current relationship with her was not a real husband and wife.
Although the two have always slept in the same bed, they are not the same. Not to mention that something happens between husband and wife, if the relationship between the two of them wants to go further, maybe they need an opportunity, and maybe it is possible to go on like this.
After stacking the luggage neatly, Lin Aijun and Du Juan got into the jeep and breathed a sigh of relief.
If it weren't for Lin Aijun's comrades-in-arms who drove to pick them up today, neither of them knew how to return to the army.
"Captain, sister-in-law, the house has been cleaned up, and in the past few days, the fat sister-in-law will go to your house every day to burn the kang, and you can sleep at night with confidence." The horse cannon was made in the passenger seat, but the person twisted back vigorously, and talked to Lin Aijun and them with the back of the chair.
"The fat sister-in-law is also a military sister-in-law, and she is the daughter-in-law of Yu Hongjun's eldest brother. Their family is a neighbor of ours, you can have more contact with the fat sister-in-law in the future, she is very good. Lin Aijun explained softly to Du Juan, "There are several other military wives, you can also try to contact them slowly, their men will train with me in the future." β
"Okay." Du Juan has no opinion, can she have deep contact, only after dealing with it will know that she will not express her opinion.
Speaking of residence, I would like to thank Zhao Dagang and them.
As soon as they returned to the army, they reported Lin Aijun's situation and told the family of Lin Aijun that they chose to join the army.
When the leader heard this, he immediately paid attention to it. The conditions for joining the army on their side are very poor, and few military wives are willing to choose to join the army.
Therefore, more than half a month after Zhao Dagang and they left, Lin Aijun received a letter from him, which was also mixed with a structural diagram of the house, saying that it was for Lin Aijun to plan, so that he could simply clean up while he was free.
Towards evening, the car finally drove into the family area, which was told by Ma Da Cannon to SΓΉ Du Juan.
The family quarters are separated from the camp by a wall, with a small door in the middle for the soldiers to return home.
"Hey, isn't this a very good house?" Du Juan raised her eyebrows, and muttered in her heart with some surprise, gray walls and red tiles, boxy, looking at the area of the room is not small. Although she also read the drawings at that time, she always thought it was a typical adobe house in the north, but she didn't expect it to be a brick house.
"This is a small warehouse where small R countries used to store grain, so it was built very strongly, and the only drawback is that there is only one door and no window." Lin Aijun knew what she was thinking when he saw Du Juan's raised eyebrows, so he poked his head over and explained softly in her ear, "But now that a few windows have been opened according to our requirements, it is completely impossible to see the original state of the warehouse." β
Du Juan's ears were a little red, and the hot breath spewed out by Lin Aijun made her unconsciously shrink her neck.
Lin Aijun quietly looked at Du Juan's reflection, his deep eyes narrowed slightly, and he didn't continue to say anything after sitting up straight. (To be continued.) )
