Hainan Island was completely liberated, and at the military-civilian celebration meeting held in Haikou City, the People's Liberation Army Art Troupe performed theatrical programs on stage. A group of female warriors dressed in Li and Miao costumes were performing a cheerful folk dance, and one of the most beautiful girls attracted the attention of many people, she was Lin Meijiao. At this time, Lin Meijiao, like all the soldiers, was immersed in the joy after the victory in the Battle of Hainan Island, and she laughed and danced on the stage. After performing a show, Lin Meijiao was changing her costume backstage, when a female warrior came up to her and said, "Lin Meijiao, someone is looking for you outside." ”

After Lin Meijiao changed into a military uniform, she walked out of the backstage and saw that the person who came turned out to be Wang Hongju, she happily ran over and gave a military salute and said, "Hello Instructor Wang!" ”

Wang Hongju looked at Lin Meijiao in surprise and said, "Oops! I really didn't expect that this heroic female soldier was Gillian! ”

Wang Hongju said that Lin Meijiao blushed, and she lowered her head embarrassedly, "Instructor, you are embarrassed to say that others." “

"Gillian, do you still have a show down there?"

"Nope."

Wang Hongju pointed to the front and said, "Okay, let's go forward, I have something to tell you." ”

Wang Hongju took Lin Meijiao to a quiet place and stopped, he wanted to tell Lin Meijiao about Lin Nanhui's sacrifice, but looking at Lin Meijiao's weak appearance and afraid that she would not be able to bear it, he wondered in his heart how to tell her about it. At this time, Lin Meijiao spoke first: "Instructor, how is my uncle?" Why didn't he come to see me? With that, she pursed her lips.

"How do you say this? He can't come, he can't come to see you. Wang Hongju couldn't continue.

Lin Meijiao asked: "Why?" Something is wrong with him? ”

Wang Hongju shook his head: "No." ”

"Is he hurt?" Lin Meijiao's face changed a little, and she had some bad premonitions.

Wang Hongju said in a heavy tone: "Gillian, I came this time to tell you about Comrade Lin Nanhui, you have to be stronger," Wang Hongju had not finished speaking, and the smart Lin Meijiao had already guessed what he was going to say next, and Lin Meijiao's eyes were red.

"When our ships were already docked, one of the enemy's shells hit the ship, and your uncle died!" As soon as Wang Hongju's words fell, Lin Meijiao's tears burst out of her eyes, and she leaned on a tree trunk and cried bitterly. Several soldiers of the art troupe who passed by heard the movement and ran over to ask Wang Hongju what was going on, and Wang Hongju said to them: "Lin Meijiao's uncle died in the battle, she is sad, don't disturb her, let her cry for a while!" ”

Wang Hongju looked at Lin Meijiao quietly, and after she stopped crying, Wang Hongju comforted and said: "Gillian, your uncle is a good comrade, a brave and fearless soldier, and we are proud of him." People can't be resurrected after death, don't cry anymore, you are a PLA soldier now, you have to be proud of your uncle, you have to be strong. Lin Meijiao nodded tearfully. Wang Hongju looked at Lin Meijiao, who was full of tears, and couldn't help but feel a trace of pity in his heart, he said softly: "Gillian, your uncle sacrificed, you should treat me as your brother, if there is anything that can't be solved in the future, come to me, I will do my best to take care of you." ”

At this time, the head of the art troupe, Wu, heard that Lin Meijiao's uncle had died, and he also came over to comfort her and said: "Comrade Lin Meijiao, don't be sad, turn your grief into strength, and hard work is the best memory of your uncle." ”

After Captain Wu asked Lin Meijiao to return to the team, he and Wang Hongju, an old comrade-in-arms, chatted together for a long time. Head Wu told Wang Hongju that Lin Meijiao's performance in the art troupe is still very good, and everyone likes this Guangdong girl who bites her tongue and speaks Chinese, and she has just submitted an application to the organization to join the group. Wang Hongju said: "He is the niece of my sacrificial comrades-in-arms, please take more care of him in the future." ”

"Kobayashi is a very conscious fighter who demands progress, and I admire her. However, this Lin Meijiao is so beautiful, someone has already nicknamed her, what is it: 'Leizhou Xishi'. ”

"That's not true! Gillian just came to your art troupe and had a nickname, it's too disrespectful! ”

"Actually, it's not a big deal, the troublesome woman is too beautiful and loves to make trouble, and a few people have taken a fancy to her recently! Let me give the old man that month. ”

Wang Hongju was a little anxious when he heard this, and Captain Wu hurriedly waved his hand to tell him not to worry, he continued: "Gillian is the backbone of the performance in my troupe, and many soldiers watch the performance just to see her, where am I willing to let her go." ”

Wang Hongju pointed at the head of the Wu regiment and said, "Old Wu, I can warn you, you can't be old this month!" Gillian is only sixteen years old, she is still a simple child, and marrying too early will ruin her future. No way! I don't agree with that! ”

"I'll just say that, I haven't skimmed the eight characters yet, look at your urgency. Who are you? Can you handle it? Could it be that you also have a crush on Gillian? Head Wu looked at Wang Hongju and counted them down.

"Don't talk nonsense, it's not like that! No matter what you say about me, you can't do it this month anyway! Wang Hongju said very dissatisfied: "How are these people doing, before the battle is over, their eyes are fixed on the young and beautiful female warrior!" ”

"Don't worry! My brother Hongju! I'm a art troupe and not a marriage agency, from the standpoint of the art troupe, I won't be old for others! Resolutely do not do it! Have the ability to let them say for themselves, see if Gillian is willing or not! Head Wu smiled and patted Wang Hongju's shoulder and said.

Wang Hongju left the art troupe and returned to the company, the company is resting these days, his work is not very busy, he thought that the communication channels between Hainan Island and Beijing have been unblocked, so he thought that he should write a letter to his family and Huang Tingting to report his safety.

Wang Hongju leaned on a coconut tree with great interest to write a letter, he described the gorgeous and charming subtropical scenery and customs of Hainan Island with great interest in his letter to Huang Tingting, a large number of novel tropical plants and fruits that have never been seen and never eaten, he said that in addition to his own unaccustomed to the hot climate here, he liked everything on Hainan Island very much, and at the end of the letter he quoted a song by Qin Guan of the Song Dynasty "Queqiao Immortal" to express his deep longing for his lover: "The clouds are clever, and the flying stars spread hatred, The silver man traveled all the way to the dark. As soon as the golden wind and jade dew meet, they will win countless in the world. Tenderness is like water, the best period is like a dream, and you can endure the return of the Magpie Bridge. If the two love for a long time, how can it be in the morning and twilight? ”
