"As soon as we received the notice that the orphans in Tangzhuang were about to arrive in our city, we immediately began to deploy and resettle them. At that time, the task was issued in a hurry, and the bedding was not yet ready.

…… It was a temporary assault organized by the street, and the next day this side picked up people, and hundreds of brand-new quilts and mattresses on the other side were sent to the temporarily requisitioned Yuhong School. Cars pulled, bicycles were packed, and carts were pushed......," said a staff member in Shijiashan who was responsible for housing orphans.

Summer sits on the couch with a notebook in the record.

"At that time, it shook our entire Shijiashan City. Comrade reporter, the most touching thing is that the children who went to school in Yuhong Primary School heard the teachers say that there are no pillows, they are so small, and they go home and consciously ask their parents to fill the pillows. The next morning, the children had two bulging new pillows under their armpits......"

The staff was full of emotion: "Is it easier to mobilize the masses than to receive orphans?" Without! The human heart is full of flesh! ”

Seeing that Summer nodded in approval, he continued, "...... After the children took a shower, the comrades from the garment factory and department store were waiting. Measure clothes and shoes. There were so many spontaneous people that they even bought the girl's red head rope and tied her hair and put it on, because they were going to attend the welcome party when they arrived. ”

Summer raised her head this time: "How are they in the mood?" ”

"Heck, they're in a big truck. Garland team, bouquet team, waist drum team...... Comrade journalist, a lively scene that you can't imagine. The captain of our traffic brigade personally stood at the intersection and commanded. The children of our city played trumpets to greet the children of Tangzhuang. ”

"What I want to ask is the emotions of the children in Tangzhuang. How did they perform? ”

There was a pause in the staff's gushing words: "Strong. A little boy came to the stage to speak, and as soon as he came on stage, many of us cried, but he controlled his emotions and said clearly, "My parents died, and it was my uncle from the People's Liberation Army who saved me." Wipe the corners of your eyes with a handkerchief, stop for only a minute or two, and then continue talking. ”

Luckily in the summer, the girl she was looking for named Li Jing was here.

"As far as the orphan named Li Jing you are looking for, I am too impressed. She wears two watches. When the staff bathed her. She also had to keep her watch in front of her. She sang on behalf of the orphans of Tangzhuang and our local children on the same stage, very innocent, alas! They laughed and sang on stage, contrasting. The adults in the audience burst into tears. ”

Summer didn't go to visit and take Li Jing away for the first time. She still has important things to do. She and Xiao Mao pinched the addresses of individual orphans after they were adopted. Pretend to be a passerby to observe.

She, Xiao Mao, no one can empathize more with them than them.

They are sensitive, and they can be more delicate than other journalists. After the visit. Summer and Xiaomao both sighed a lot, and they couldn't say what it tasted like.

After all, it is not her own biological child, there is also a gap between the child and her parents, and there is a sudden pregnancy after adoption, infertility for several years, and the change of mentality of being a mother......

And so on.

Before setting off in the summer, he squatted down and looked into Li Jing's eyes and asked, "Tell Auntie, I heard from your Uncle Wang that there is a very cultured uncle who wants to take you away, why didn't you go?" ”

Li Jing was wrapping her arms around Summer's neck with both hands, and was slowly pulled away by Summer and looked at her seriously, before she opened her mouth and replied: "I want to go to Aunt Mansion's house in the People's Liberation Army." I'm waiting for you! ”

Summer was suddenly speechless. If she doesn't come, will the child be disappointed again and stop trusting others.

Summer didn't treat Li Jing as a child, she talked to Li Jing very seriously:

"Jingjing, if there is also a PLA aunt in that family, but now that she is gone, she sacrificed herself to save her younger brother than you, and her parents have no daughter, are you willing to replace that PLA aunt? When their daughters? ”

Xiao Mao squatted on the other side: "They, they need you." A daughter who grows up to be as good as that PLA aunt. ”

Li Jing, who is six and a half years old, looked back at Xia very seriously, she looked at it for a while, Xia squatting legs were numb, waiting for an answer.

Li Jing looked back at Tongchang's bunk, she was the oldest here, and she was called out to meet strangers by the principal's aunt several times.

"I think Mom and Dad will want me to go to that PLA aunt's house."

Summer hugged Li Jing: "Good boy." That PLA aunt is in the spirit of heaven and will be glad that you are her sister. She is simple, kind, and upright, and in the future, you will be very good. ”

A pair of little hands are very busy, Li Jing wiped her tears for Summer and wiped her tears for Xiaomao.

"Don't cry, when I grow up, I will be a soldier. To save little children like me. ”

At the age of six and a half, Li Jing spent her life fulfilling her promise.

All the way down the train, Xiao Mao hugged Li Jing and whispered that she was also an orphan, and she met a pair of parents who were thicker than blood and water to her.

At the last stop, Xia, Xiaomao, and Li Jing stood in front of a small village, looking at the curling smoke together.

The word fate is really wonderful.

When Li Jing was standing in the courtyard of the Li family, the axe in the hands of Li Jianye and Li Tong's father who was chopping wood fell to the ground.

The seven-foot man hurriedly walked over and picked up Li Jing, tears raining down: "Girl." ”

A girl, summer instantly looks up at the sky. Is it a delusion? How can there be sunlight in the slightly overcast sky just now? The beam of light was dazzling, and it looked at the heavens and the earth with satisfaction.

Li Jing tentatively rubbed Li Jianye's rough and stubble face with her little face, it turned out that when her father came home from work, they were like this.

Li Tong's grandparents stood in front of the door, the old man couldn't stand it, and he had to rely on the wall to keep from falling. Li Tong's mother walked to Li Jianye's side and saw that Li Jing was not very clear, she could only slowly touch her little hands from her pigtails.

She muttered to herself, "Tongtong's family is here." ”

……

When Xia and Xiaomao left, they left behind the medicine and instructions for Li Tong's mother to relieve her eyes, as well as the scarf that Xia was still knitting on the train from the day she decided to leave until the day.

This winter, Li Tong is gone, but I hope you can feel warm, Auntie.

Li Tong is gone, Li Jing is here, I hope that in the future, this only daughter's family will be full of joy. The beginning and the end should not only be scarred.

……

On the return trip, Xiao Mao said to Summer with emotion: "Sister, you have to keep doing this kind of work." In the future, I will be more capable and help more people. ”

Xia said: "In the future, I will have the opportunity to be a boss, and I will have enough money and confidence to help more people find jobs, isn't it?" ”

Xiao Mao felt that there was too little ink in her stomach, she couldn't describe what she was thinking and feeling, she could only put pressure on the uncle and aunt:

"It's better to buy and sell than to have a good job. Our family needs you and your brother to have decent jobs and serve the country and the country. That's an honor, like your medal, it's not just decent, it's meaningful. ”

Summer understands, she understands what Xiao Mao wants to say.

……

Ye Boxuan was thinking about it, and he didn't know if his daughter-in-law could come back for a reunion on August 15, so he pushed open the door of the ward in the summer...... (To be continued......)
