In the living room, Zhang Xiancheng sat on the sofa reading today's newspaper, while his wife was making dinner in the kitchen.

"I said Lao Zhang, if your daughter is not here, you don't know how to help me, you know that your daughter will help me before reading your newspaper.

That girl too, she left suddenly, and I don't know how she is doing now, there are wars everywhere these years, where will she go, I'm afraid that something will happen to her. Zhang Xiancheng's wife complained in the kitchen.

"I'm just a big man, how can I do this, these are all done by you women, how can I do it, thank you.

Don't mention that girl, I get angry when I mention her, and I leave with my classmates without saying a word, she is an educated person anyway, how to do things so recklessly, is she a girl who can walk around casually in the current era?

If I know where that girl is, I will criticize and educate her harshly, because we have been worried about her safety. Zhang Xiancheng said.

Zhang Mei left suddenly, and even they didn't know when they left, and when they excavated, they couldn't find each other anywhere.

"Don't use that attitude towards the girl, as long as the girl comes back, I don't care about the rest, if I see you criticizing her, then you can cook and eat by yourself, I won't do it." Zhang Xiancheng's wife was dissatisfied.

These two are Zhang Mei's parents, and their daughter has been away from Shanghai for more than a year, and they still don't know if the other party is there, whether they are doing well.

"Her character is what you are used to, if it weren't for the fact that you have been used to her since childhood, how could she have such guts." Zhang Xiancheng saw his wife glaring at him, and immediately changed his words: "Is the meal still ready?" Hungry? ”

"Look at you like that, clean up the table, and you'll be fine in no time!"

Zhang Xiancheng immediately put down the newspaper and put the dishes and chopsticks on the table, and his wife also brought the prepared dinner to the table.

Since Zhang Mei left, there has been one less person to eat, one pair of dishes and chopsticks, and the two of them can't eat much, just make something casually.

The two ate in silence, and since their daughter left, the two of them had spoken less and less at the dinner table, and they could not find a listener for their interests.

Zhang Mei outside the door, looking at her parents who were eating quietly, tears flowed involuntarily.

"Mom and Dad!" A soft call came into the ears of the two of them.

The two looked at each other, clearly asking if they had heard someone call them just now.

"Bang!" The bowl in the hands of the two fell, and Zhang Mei, who was familiar with the door, fell into a brief blank.

It's not true, their daughter is back, it's not a fantasy that they have been thinking about every day.

"Girl! You're back! The first person to react was Zhang Mei's mother, who put down the chopsticks and ran over.

"Mom and Dad, I'm back!" Tears soaked her face, Zhang Mei said.

"It's good to come back, it's good to come back, do you know how worried we are about you, leaving without saying a word, and we don't know where you're going or what you're going to do?" It's an accusation, but it's full of concern.

Zhang Xiancheng in the back also had something to say, but when he saw the two people hugging each other, he could only stand in the back.

"Mom and Dad, I'm sorry, it was my willfulness at the time that made you two worried."

"Okay, just come back, come in quickly, don't stand outside, didn't you eat, your mother just made it, eat first, and then talk about the rest after eating." Zhang Xiancheng had long forgotten what he said at the time, and immediately said.

"Yes, yes, eat first!"

Zhang Mei hadn't eaten her mother's cooking for a long time, so she couldn't help but eat more, and her mother kept putting vegetables in the other party's bowl.

"Girl, tell your mother, have you suffered? Where did you go after you left, we found a good reader, asked a lot of people, but I didn't know where you went, and I didn't know what you did, and your father and I almost thought you were gone. ”

"I... Actually, I went to join the army, I joined the Eighth Route Army, and now I am a soldier of the Eighth Route Army. ”

Zhang Mei replied.

"What!" The biggest reaction was Zhang Xiancheng, he never thought that his daughter would participate in the Eighth Road, and said: "Girl, don't lie to your father, you really participated in the Eighth Road?" Why did you want to join the army!

You have to be clear, now is the time when the two countries are inseparable, it's not that Dad doesn't want you to join the army, we only have a daughter like you, what if you are not there? ”

"Dad, I really participated in the Eight Roads, but don't worry, I became a doctor, nothing will happen, I'm in the hospital; to operate on the soldiers, so you don't have to go to war. Zhang Mei lied, she didn't dare to tell her about going to the battlefield, for fear that the two of them would not be able to stand it.

"There is no danger to the soldier, even if you are a doctor, who knows if the enemy will come to your hospital one day to attack your doctor, girl, listen to Dad once, come back.

You are a college student, there will always be people going to fight such things, and it will not change because you are alone, without you, this battle will still be fought. Zhang Xiancheng persuaded.

He is such a precious daughter, it is not that he is selfish, which parents are willing to watch their children take risks.

"Dad, when the national crisis is at the head, everyone has the right to stand up, the country may not lack a fighter, but do you know how much a doctor can change, so many desperate fighters for this country need doctors to treat them.

To be honest, although this year is the hardest time in my life, it is the happiest year for me, I strive to become a qualified doctor and work hard to treat the wounded.

Dad, do you know how big our regimental leader is? He was the same as me, but he became the commander of the regiment, and that was by his own ability, and the soldiers in the regiment admired him. ”

"Becoming the head of the regiment at such a young age, it seems that this person still has some ability, but what does this have to do with you, I just want you to come back, we are afraid that you will lose your life."

"Dad, you don't know, my change can be said to be because of him, you don't know him, if you meet him, you will be infected by him.

He is as old as me, but there are not many devils he has killed, and the devils are afraid of him, and a person as old as him can stay in school, but for the sake of the country, he joined the army without hesitation.

There are many people in our group who are about the same age as me, and they all have parents and relatives, should they be sacrificed? For the sake of our happy life, they take everything about themselves so lightly. ”
