Chapter 686: The Past
Cheng Jiayi doesn't know what kind of thoughts and reactions she should have, but what is certain is that the relationship between Lili and Wang An is also very pure.
She was a little annoyed by her gossip, a little superiority, and a little bit of bad talk.
Everyone didn't get on the bus right away, and the gas station had long been out of electricity, but there seemed to be no open fire in this place, and everyone was a little stiff under the activity, and the leader of the seventh group took down a big bag early in the morning, and turned out a pile of jerky and bread baked during the day from it.
The leader of the seventh group is not very good at making pastries, and the so-called bread tastes more like baked steamed buns, but no one is picky, and everyone takes a piece of bread and a barbecue.
"Boss, the fish fillet porridge I cooked before I left is still warm." The leader of the seventh group took out a warm rice cooker, took out a bowl for Cheng Jiayi, and served another bowl for Lili.
"And porridge." Although the leader of the three groups spoke, the person did not step forward.
The leader of the seventh group didn't plan to give it to others, so he turned around and closed the lid of the pot.
"You all drink it." Cheng Jiayi said busily.
"What to drink, you girls want to be hot, keep it for you tomorrow morning." The leader of the seventh group opened his mouth and refused.
"Leave them alone." Lili said with a grin.
Cheng Jiayi was treated independently for the first time, and she was really moved, everyone laughed, eating their own hard fish and meat, and no one said anything.
Cheng Jiayi quietly left half of the porridge for Du Yiyi behind his back, but Du Yiyi refused to drink it after taking a sip, saying that he couldn't go against the kindness of Brother Qi.
After drinking warm porridge, my stomach was warm, my heart was warm, and when I got in the car again, I felt that the atmosphere in the car was not quite the same. Fang Tao didn't have a cold face anymore.
The fuel tank of the military vehicle is really good, Cheng Jiayi didn't know that there was a car that ran all day before refueling, of course, she didn't know how far the car ran to refuel.
Far from the town, the scenery is almost the same, and the red, green and yellow leaves of the trees in late autumn are layered on top of each other, which is very beautiful. It's just that the big men in the car are all incomprehensible, one of the two women is familiar with the scenery, and the other is not old enough to enjoy the scenery.
Just from the fact that I haven't seen the sunrise on the beach for three days, you can know that the romance in Cheng Jiayi's head is imaginary, and people have not yet reached the age of romance and romance.
What's more, from the era of peace to the bloody era overnight, the romance that originally existed in fantasy has long been extinguished in blood.
The layers of red, green and yellow colors were left behind, and the sky turned from white to black, and the people in the car were staggering and eager to go down and run, but they were still very patient with the car swaying.
The vehicle has always been driven by Fang Tao and Sun Dong in shifts, Cheng Jiayi didn't notice that she had been staring at Sun Dong for a long time, so long that not only Sun Dong noticed it, but everyone was aware of it.
"Hey, what do you want?" Du Yiyi's gaze that was constantly swept over was also uncomfortable, although he knew that Cheng Jiayi would not have any thoughts about Sun Dong, no, there were very strange thoughts.
"Oh, I see that Dongzi's back is very similar to Brother Fang." Cheng Jiayi's heart moved, and she blurted out through Du Yiyi's questioning.
"Hey, yes, Brother Dongzi, your back is always so straight, as if you have been ......" Du Yiyi smiled, deliberately straightening his backbone.
Sun Dong said with a smile: "I'm used to it, since I was a child, I would be beaten as long as I was hunchbacked." ”
"Why?" Du Yiyi was taken aback, "You have such a strict tutor, and you ......"
Du Yiyi couldn't help but glance at Zhang Hao - such a strict tutor is still a little brother on the road?
The people in the car thought about it almost the same as Du Yiyi, and even Fang Tao glanced at Sun Dong in the rearview mirror.
"My family, my grandfather and my father are all soldiers." Sun Dong mentioned that his father's affairs had no feelings, as if they had nothing to do with him, "I grew up with my grandfather when I was a child. ”
"Then you ......" Du Yiyi felt that he shouldn't ask, but he had to ask.
"My father died when I was fourteen." Sun Dongzhen seemed to be talking about other people's business, "My grandfather also sent me to join the army at that time, saying that every generation of our old Sun family must serve the motherland." It's a pity that I'm only fourteen years old, and even if I am a descendant of martyrs, no one wants me. ”
No one in the car spoke, and they all looked at Sun Dong.
Sun Dong paused for a moment, and then said: "My grandfather is a scout, and so is my father, and my grandfather said that sooner or later he will send me to join the army, and the sooner you learn some things, the better." Later, my grandfather fell ill and died. ”
The car was quiet.
"Aren't you eighteen years old then?" Fang Tao said suddenly, he had been observing Sun Dong in the rearview mirror.
Sun Dong tilted his head and looked at Fang Tao in the rearview mirror.
"I have no objection to serving the motherland, but my family has completed its mission of serving the motherland. My father died. Before he died, my family was surrounded by walls. My mother died of illness and did not see my father when she died, and I did not know that my mother was dead when my father died.
My grandfather also died of illness when I was sixteen years old. I don't know if my grandfather ever regretted when he died, regretted sending his only son to the battlefield, and even donated his pension, not even the money for medical treatment.
But I know my grandfather regretted that he lived two years less, that he didn't see me go to the army with his own eyes, and that he would never see me join the army again. ”
Sun Dong usually said very little, but these words seemed to have been held in his heart for a long time, he looked in the rearview mirror and looked at Fang Tao, as if these words were all for Fang Tao alone.
"Your grandfather was a hero. So is your father. Fang Tao's words echoed in the silent car.
"Yes, they are heroes to all, but not me and my mother's. My mother has no husband, I don't have a father, and even I don't have a grandfather, only a chief. Sun Dong said coldly.
Such words, such sad words, Sun Dong said it plainly, indifferently, as if what he said was a fact.
He retracted his gaze and looked at Zhang Hao opposite, "Except for my mother, only Brother Hao asked me if I was hungry." ”
Cheng Jiayi's nose suddenly became a little sour.
Zhang Hao sighed and said, "I was also ...... that day Dongzi, Brother Hao is very happy to pick you up. Brother Hao has met good buddies in this half of his life, you and Brother Qiang, as well as Xiao Cheng and Xiao Du. ”
Sun Dong smiled, "Brother Hao, when you picked me up that day, I hadn't eaten for two days. ”
"I can see it, you ate a bowl of beef noodles in a few bites, and you didn't chew it, I was scared at the time."
"You are the descendant of martyrs, and no one cares about you?" Fang Tao said angrily.
"Yes, someone arranged for me to live in an orphanage and join the army after I was eighteen." Sun Dong said lightly.
Zhang Hao sighed, "Fang Tao, you have also experienced those things that you shouldn't have experienced, this society is not because people eat people because they have mutated." ”
