Xiao Yuanchao is gone, and no one will be able to stop his powerful footsteps when he leaves this time. Loyal! Loyal! With the mind and thinking of a seven-and-a-half-year-old child, Xiao Yuanchao perfectly expounded the absolute loyalty that a soldier and a Chinese should have.

From the first day he entered the Special Armor unit, his path was tortuous. And now, the country and the army will be cultivated as a fierce soldier, and the road is destined to be more tortuous in the future. He will fall, he will be injured, and even die.

But he has an indelible belief: to be a soldier, you have to die!

Zhao Xiuying cried and fainted after Xiao Yuanchao left, and Xiao Hongjun carefully took care of the things he brought to his son. There was no need to carry these things, but he was stubborn about giving what he thought was best to his son.

He knows too well what kind of life his son will enter when he leaves, if the life of the cadets of the special armor unit is facing a cruel test of survival, then the son who is trained as a murderer will face the limit of survival.

But isn't that a pride? At least the motherland still looks up to the men of their Xiao family, and at least the army still recognizes the men of their Xiao family.

The blood sprinkled on the red flag and the war continued, and the men of the Xiao family were originally iron-blooded men who charged furiously for the red flag and fought endlessly.

"When will I see my son?" Zhao Xiuying, who woke up, made a hoarse voice at her husband.

"Hehe, soon, in a few years." Xiao Hongjun comforted his wife with a smile.

"Will my son die?" This is Zhao Xiuying's second question.

She gave birth to five sons, each of whom was a piece of flesh that fell from her. After the death of her four former sons, the youngest son is all her spiritual support. When her youngest son was also sent to serve in the army, her biggest fear was that his son would die.

"Won't die!" Xiao Hongjun said with great certainty: "Xiao Wu is stronger than his brothers, he won't die, he will live well!" ”

"You're lying to me again......" Zhao Xiuying let out a bitter laugh and said, "Hehe, Xiao Hongjun, every time you say it so firmly, so absolutely." But you know what, your eyes are always uncertain. ”

"I ......" Xiao Hongjun was silent.

"Actually, it's fine, I'm used to it." Zhao Xiuying walked out of bed with her weak body and said, "When Xiao Wu dies, you won't have any thoughts, right?" ”

This is anger that has been hidden for a long, long time, and Zhao Xiuying hates her husband because her husband sent all his sons into the army and four died. Now the only youngest son is only seven and a half years old, and he has also been sent to the army, how can she not hate?

"But why did you sign it?" Xiao Hongjun asked in a low voice.

His voice was full of guilt, but it was definitely not regret. There is no regret for the country and the people, only what should or shouldn't.

"I'm a military wife, I'm a martyr's mother, what can I do?" Zhao Xiuying left bitter tears and said lightly: "It's time to eat, right?" I'm going to cook. ”

"I'll do it!" Xiao Hongjun stood up and said.

"Will you do it?" Zhao Xiuying shook her head and said, "I'm hungry, I have to cook and eat, I have to live to see my little five." ”

After finishing speaking, Zhao Xiuying staggered towards the kitchen. Her body fluttered, but her eyes were steadfast. She stared at the kitchen, she wanted to eat, she wanted to have strength, she wanted to live well to see her son.

"Xiuying......" Xiao Hongjun choked up and said: "I can't cook, I can learn!" In the future, I will cook for you, I will wash your feet, and I will listen to your ...... for everything."

Who pays more? From everyone's point of view, Xiao Hongjun has paid more, but from the small family, it is Zhao Xiuying who has paid the most. She knows too well what her identity is, and when this identity brings her supreme honor, it also brings heart-rending pain.

Xiao Hongjun understood and knew that he decided to listen to his wife for everything in the future, because he owed his wife too much......

"Tuk Tuk!"

There was a knock on the door outside.

Hearing the knock on the door, Zhao Xiuying, who was swaying, immediately threw herself on the sofa, sat down, sat firmly, and wiped away her tears, which allowed Xiao Hongjun to open the door.

In front of outsiders, especially at this time, she has to be strong, she has to be strong. For the sake of the Xiao family, for their own identity.

The door opened, and standing outside was an old man with a white beard. The old man was dressed in a navy blue tunic and held a cane in his hand, and he was in good spirits. A pair of eyes radiated a light that many young people did not have, and the two eyebrows that should have been sword eyebrows were snow-white, drooping from both sides. And his beard was long, hanging down to his chest, neatly combed.

"Old man, who are you looking for?" Seeing such a demeanor of the old man, Xiao Hongjun was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly said, "Please come and sit in the house." ”

The old man smiled, stepped into the house, stood there and looked at this home that had lost its popularity and seemed deserted, and finally turned his gaze to Zhao Xiuying's face, showing a kind smile.

"Xiao Yuanzheng, who was formerly the 93rd Division of the Sixth Army of the Kuomintang of the Expeditionary Force and later incorporated into the Seventh Column of the Eighth Route Army, is here?" The old man standing there asked.

Hearing this, Xiao Hongjun immediately replied with a solemn face: "Yes!" Xiao Yuanzheng is the father of the family! ”

"Hehehe, that's right." The old man smiled and said to Xiao Hongjun: "I am your father's former comrade-in-arms, why are you here today......?"

Hearing that the old man who came was his father's former comrade-in-arms, Xiao Hongjun immediately respected. This is definitely not fake, because few people know that their father was once part of the expeditionary force. Few people know that my father once stayed in the Seventh Column of the Eighth Route Army, and I know more about the number of the unit my father was in when he participated in the Korean War.

"Uncle, you sit, you sit!" Xiao Hongjun carefully supported the old man and let him sit on the sofa.

Zhao Xiuying immediately went into the kitchen to make tea for the old man.

"Hehehe......" The old man after sitting down said with a smile: "Xiao Yuanzheng has a good son, a good daughter-in-law, and he also has a group of good grandsons!" ”

"Sun Tzu......" Xiao Hongjun's mouth was full of bitterness.

"I know that all four of your sons have died for the country, and I can only express my gratitude to you and your husband on behalf of the country." The old man who had just sat down stood up and bowed to salute.

But this ceremony was avoided by Xiao Hongjun before it could be done at all, because Xiao Hongjun couldn't afford it. Standing in front of him was a real old revolutionary, and he could not afford anyone, nor could he afford this kind of military courtesy.

The old man ignored it and continued to bow down, but it was to Zhao Xiuying, who came out with a teacup.

After receiving this gift, Zhao Xiuying became overwhelmed, hurriedly put down the teacup, and wanted to return the gift.

"Affordable, affordable, hehehe, this is the country represented." The old man smiled, stretched out his hand to Zhao Xiuying and said, "Come, girl, come and sit with me." ”

Zhao Xiuying walked over and sat beside the old man very restrainedly.

The old man obviously liked Zhao Xiuying very much, and took Zhao Xiuying's hand and asked for warmth, just like a father treats his daughter.

"Actually, I came this time for a very important matter." The old man reached out and untied the pocket of his tunic suit, took out a photo from it and handed it to Zhao Xiuying and said, "Look, this is my granddaughter, she looks good, right?" Your family's Xiao Yuanchao is the same age as my granddaughter, why don't you let these two dolls marry? Girl, what do you think? ”

"This ......" Zhao Xiuying was stunned.

"Girl, let me tell you, my granddaughter is obedient and sensible, and it is absolutely okay to be your daughter-in-law! My granddaughter's name is Du Baobao, and your son's name is Xiao Yuanchao, judging from the five elements and eight characters, they are all a perfect match! Also, this is a photo of my granddaughter's life, this is my granddaughter's essay, this is my granddaughter's ......"

The old man began to rummage through his clothes up and down, took out a lot of photos of the baby, homework books, and even brought birth papers. （.)。

"How? How about getting two dolls married? The old man looked expectant.

"That...... Uncle ......" Xiao Hongjun snorted for a long time, and said truthfully to the old man: "I have gone to the army to help the DPRK, and I will ...... in the future."

"I know, I'm going to the Special Armor Unit! But what does it matter? Marrying two dolls is two different things! ”

"I'm only seven and a half years old, I can't get married......"

"Sixteen is enough! Let's get married first, and let them get married when the two dolls are sixteen years old! The old man said excitedly: "I got married when I was fifteen, and I felt a little late at the age of sixteen, how about fourteen?" ”

“……”

The corners of Xiao Hongjun's mouth twitched: "Uncle, the legal age is ...... now"

"What legal age? I said that if you can get married at the age of fourteen, you can get married! It's so decided, I got married at the age of fourteen, and I brought the dowry! ”

The old man opened the door and rushed out in a neutral voice: "Bring in my granddaughter's dowry!" ”

A team of guards who had been guarding outside for a long time began to carry the dowry from the car, all the baby's dowry.

When the old man said goodbye to Xiao Hongjun and his wife, he said to them in a very strict voice: You can give your son to the motherland, why can't I give my granddaughter to you? My granddaughter will be Xiao Yuanchao's life, and the blood on her body is destined to be shed for Xiao Yuanchao!

The old man left, put down the marriage book and left. Xiao Hongjun and his wife didn't even know who the old man was, only that they had an inexplicable little daughter-in-law......
