After hanging up the phone, Sun Ju didn't dare to delay, and together with Mo Bai, he sent Ye Xiu to the watermelon farm, which could be regarded as giving Gu Licheng a face.

The wind was strong in the winter, and the rain kept falling.

The journey to the watermelon farm was not as lucky as taking a car.

Mo Bai was drenched in the rain, and his nose couldn't help but sneeze.

"Comrade Xiaomo."

Ye Xiu unbuttoned her tunic coat, although it was a little damp, it was also draped on her body, which could cover a little rain and a little rain.

"I'm the one who bothered you."

Mo Bai shook his head, and with such a shake, the rain flowed down from his hair, "Brother Ye." If it's the one who is involved, I'm right. ”

Her mind now is not to go to the watermelon farm, but to Messi. I don't know, what is the level of medical care in the town, and great-grandpa is not better.

Ye Xiu thought that Mo Bai was worried about his future life on the farm, so he patted his chest as a guarantee, "Comrade Xiaomo." Don't be afraid, I won't let people bully you when you get to the farm. ”

"You ......" the inky white willow eyebrows condensed into Sichuan characters, "why are you so good to me?" ”

Obviously, they have only met twice, why is he so good to her.

Ye Xiu scratched the back of his head, probably not expecting to ask himself such a question, in fact, the reason why he was so concerned about Mo Bai's affairs was because of Gu Licheng's entrustment before leaving.

Although he was born in the city.

But when he was seven years old, the devil slaughtered the city, and the city seemed to be washed away by blood. Twenty-three years ago in the middle of winter, Gu Licheng was only three years old when Ye Xiu was three years old, and the two of them crawled out of the pile of dead people and became one of the few lucky ones who were alive.

Later, all the way north, Ye Xiu and Gu Licheng supported each other and fought many victorious battles, from troubled times to peace, and their friendship was deep.

Today, in a famine year, the situation is most special.

Gu Licheng cares about the masses and frequently visits Lancheng, hoping to get the attention of the above.

Ye Xiu has lived for thirty years, and it is the first time that he has seen Gu Licheng so attentive to a girl.

What's more, such a proud man has never asked anyone to do anything in his life.

Only this time, before leaving, let him take good care of this Comrade Xiaomo.

In the years of artillery fire, Gu Licheng also saved Ye Xiu's life several times.

Kindness is greater than mountains and rivers, and he always has to pay it back.

"Why......?"

Ye Xiu's mouth was smiling, his gaze should have passed through the ink white, and he saw Gu Licheng, "This is a promise between soldiers." ”

Mo Bai didn't know what Ye Xiu was talking about, the battalion soldiers who sent them to the watermelon farm were Zhao Daniu's people, and they had a bad attitude: "Don't talk about it, be honest!" ”

The rain was still falling, and until they arrived at the watermelon farm, Mo Bai and Ye Xiu didn't communicate again.

When Mo Bai was very young, he heard the old man in Mianya Village talk about the watermelon farm, but when he really stood in front of the watermelon farm, he knew how happy life was in the eighties.

On this saline land, if you say that you live in a shed, it is a shed where you are seated, and the wind leaks in all directions.

They came at an unfortunate time.

Since the beginning of last year, the grain supply has been reduced to 10 catties per month, and there are only five taels of grain per day.

There is less work in the spring, and in addition to natural disasters, in the winter, not to mention what else there is to harvest.

After the battalion soldiers handed Mo Bai and Ye Xiu over to the team leader of the watermelon farm, they went back.

"Leader Ye Xiu?" The team leader spoke arrogantly and unreasonably, chuckling and mocking, "When you come to the watermelon farm, you have to forget your identity!" There are only ordinary people Ye Xiu here, and there is no regimental leader! ”

At this time, a woman ran over in a panic, "Captain Zheng, it's terrible, the family can't survive today." ”

The squad leader surnamed Zheng muttered, "His grandmother's." This watermelon farm, how can things always happen all day long! ”

Mo Bai and Ye Xiu were left to dry in the rain until an old man came over and said to them, "The weather is bad today, you don't have to do work, the newcomer goes to the shed and waits for a speech." ”
