During the revolutionary Spring Festival, the workers in the city did not take a holiday, and the postman also stuck to his post, and the Xu family received more than a dozen packages and a thick pile of letters on the fifth day of the new year.

Huan Huan first opened a package, which was sent to her by Huizhen from Qing Province, and Huan Huan first flipped through the letters inside.

Huizhen said that she lived well in Xiping, although the climate is not comparable to Jincheng, but she gets along happily with her teammates.

In winter, when they can't go to work, they visit Tibetan yurts, and the locals are very friendly to them as third-line construction workers.

Hye-jin's letter is rambling, thinking of where to say it, there is no point, but it is very graphic to read.

She even wrote about the deliciousness of Tibetan roast mutton and yak meat, as well as the local pile embroidery and thangka.

Huanhuan knows that Huizhen's life is definitely not as good as she wrote.

A teenage girl has to do heavy and arduous infrastructure work under harsh natural conditions, and the degree of hardship can be imagined.

Huizhen still didn't wait for Jincheng to start recruiting female soldiers, she quietly signed up for the Iron Maiden team, and followed the Iron Maiden team with a summer change of clothes.

The Iron Maiden does not refer to the girl who repairs the railway, but the girl who is armed with the "iron will", which is the product of the propaganda spirit of "not loving arms and loving red clothes" and "women can hold up half the sky".

The pursuit is the absolute equality of the status of men and women, and the distribution of labor is also absolutely equal.

Not only does Iron Maiden do the same work as men, but she also thinks she can do it better than men.

However, women's body structure and physical strength, after all, are congenitally weak, and the high-intensity labor regardless of gender has caused many Iron Maidens to overwork their bodies, and later left them with a body of pain.

In a sense, "Iron Maiden" is also a manifestation of "left-leaning".

After reading Hye-jin's letter, she opened the package sent by Hye-jin.

In addition to wolfberry, beef jerky and other specialties, there are also a few beige, orange-red, translucent stones, which should be the Kunlun frozen stone that Huizhen said.

Kunlun frozen stone, the stone is warm and moist, the color is also very rich, it is very popular after several decades, and it is a good material for carving seals.

Looking at these Kunlun frozen stones, Duan Huan felt very sad.

Under such heavy physical work, Huizhen's salary is not much, and she is still worried about the kindness she gave to the "running fee" at the beginning, which is really embarrassing for her.

I put away these specialties, and planned to fry some nourishing herbs and grains another day to grind them into powder and send them to Huizhen, so that I could supplement my nutrition.

Then Duan Huan opened the letter from Anxi, which was a letter sent to her by the old man Zhang Banxia, saying that the old couple were safe and healthy in Anxi.

The old man also became a part-time doctor in the health center of his second son's unit, and accepted a local man as an apprentice, and his life can be said to be very fulfilling.

In the letter, Mr. Zhang also urged Huan to study medical knowledge well, saying that the country is developing, and he will definitely be useful in studying medicine.

Mrs. Zhang is even more desperate, she has bad eyes, she actually learned to spin wool thread from the locals, and sent the fruits of her labor to Duhuan.

Duan Huan touched the wool that was a little prickly, and he was happy for the old couple in his heart.

Although the living conditions in Anxi are difficult and the climate is not as pleasant as Jincheng, the old couple live a safe and happy life, and she doesn't have to worry about it.

Grandpa Xu finished reading the letter from his old comrades-in-arms at this time, his face was angry and sad, Luo Lao and several old comrades-in-arms all mentioned the news of Mrs. He's death in the letter.

Huan also read He Chongjiu's news and knew the situation of the He family, she couldn't do anything except sigh that the world was impermanent.

If it weren't for the fact that Mrs. He was stimulated and fell ill, according to his old man's body, it would not be a problem to live for another ten years.

"Zuzu! Uncle He was sent to Sichuan Province, and when we know the exact address, let's go and see Uncle He! "I want to suggest to Grandpa Xu.

Grandpa Xu nodded and said, "Okay!" Although Lao He is gone, the friendship between Xu He's two families is still there, and it is also appropriate to visit! ”

Duan Huan added a cup of tea to Grandpa Xu, and she went to clean up her things, also to leave space and time for Grandpa Xu, so that Grandpa Xu could ease his mood alone.

Mrs. He and he have been friends for many years, and the Xu and He families have been friends for many years, and it is reasonable for Grandpa Xu to be sad.

Two days later, Grandpa Xu took Huan to Jiufeng Mountain to visit Zen Master Sutong of Longxing Temple.

Longxing Temple has been broken several times, and it has long been unrecognizable, and now it has been changed to a middle school in Peng County.

The monks in the temple are still vulgar, those who are relatives, and those who are scattered are scattered.

However, they also avoided the impact of major storms as much as possible, which is also a good thing.

Zen Master Sutong was originally an abandoned baby who was still outside the gate of Longxing Temple, grew up in the temple, and naturally became a monk.

Now that he is old and has no relatives and friends to turn to, he has gone to Jiufeng Mountain.

The terrain of Jiufeng Mountain is steep, and few people go up the mountain, which is also convenient for Zen Master Sutong to cultivate.

The two of them, Duan Huan and Grandpa Xu, climbed for three hours before they saw the small cabin where Zen Master Sutong temporarily lived.

Grandpa Xu asked Duan Huan to take out the two bags of rice and noodles that he had prepared at home in the morning, which were brought to Zen Master Sutong.

Fortunately, Grandpa Xu is old and strong, otherwise these two bags of grain will carry hundreds of steps, and it is estimated that he will be tired and paralyzed.

Duan Huan also carried two burdens in his hands, which were all kinds of red, yellow and black beans and dried vegetables.

The grandfather and grandson arrived at the cabin, and the Zen master Sutong was boiling water and cooking tea under the corridor.

Grandpa Xu and Duan Huan also hurriedly folded their hands in return, and Grandpa Xu greeted: "Hello Senior Brother Sutong!" ”

Zen Master Sutong asked them to sit down and drink tea, and a little monk came out of the house, who looked to be about ten years old, and he brought a plate of baked rice cakes.

Duan Huan was very curious about the little monk, but he also greeted politely, "Hello little master!" ”

The little monk should have not seen anyone on the mountain for a long time, and he was also curious when he saw Duan Huan, but he was a little embarrassed, and he blushed and recited a sentence of Amitabha.

He took out a handful of fruit candy from his pocket and stuffed it to the little monk, the fruit candy should be no problem if it is vegetarian.

The little monk blushed and accepted the candy, and pushed the rice cake plate in front of her.

With a smile on his face, he pinched a piece of baked rice cake, the skin was crispy on the outside, hot and soft on the inside, and there was a little saltiness, which actually tasted good.

Zen Master Sutong smiled and said to Grandpa Xu: "Sure enough, she is a blessed girl, and Uncle Zhenquan is really like a god!" ”

"When did my master say that?" Grandpa Xu was surprised.

Grandpa Xu's great monk master, whose legal name is Zhenquan, only taught Grandpa Xu fist and foot kung fu, and never taught him to participate in Zen and enlightenment, and he always thought that the master would not.

Zen Master Sutong smiled and said, "You were only a teenager at the time? Even if Uncle Shi can understand your future, he can't make a judgment! ”

"Senior Brother Sutong, my little fish is in the capital, and it is also said that he is blessed with good luck and has dragon energy, do you think this is true?" Grandpa Xu asked.
