Chapter 55: I Had a Nice Vacation with My Uncle
There are reporters in the disaster area who broadcast live and take photos to broadcast the situation in the disaster area in real time.
The memorial service for the martyrs was being broadcast on the TV news.
The messy environment, the dusty sky, the hazy weather.
The bodies of the martyrs were covered with a red military flag with a bouquet of chrysanthemums on them.
Against the backdrop of white chrysanthemum, the red military flag is even more dazzling and eye-catching.
The flag of the motherland is dyed red by the blood of martyrs.
As far as the eye can see, Haohao Tang is lined up neatly in army green, standing straight, and his eyes are the same sorrow.
The masses of the people also stood on both sides, bursting into tears.
He Xiao stood at the forefront of the army, his military uniform was straight, his expression was solemn, he held his breath, looked at the remains of the martyrs, and then solemnly saluted.
"Salute!"
After a soldier behind him shouted a straight voice, all the soldiers saluted in unison.
The camera zoomed in and slid over He Xiao's face.
The angular outline, the three-dimensional facial features can not hide the resolute heroism even if they are covered by plaster, the eagle-like eyes are extraordinarily deep, the eye sockets are slightly red, the whites of the eyes are covered with red bloodshots, but there is no trace of fatigue in the eyes, only strong respect and piety.
The camera glides and his face disappears from the screen.
Xu Xinyi's heart, which had been hanging for many days, finally fell back into his stomach, and the highly tense string finally relaxed.
She is like a balloon, all the suffering and waiting these days are like an air gun, every day she throws a lot of gas into it, and when the balloon is overloaded by the gas and is on the verge of bursting, she is finally released from the air port, and she is instantly relieved.
She leaned weakly on the raised hospital bed, gasping for breath for the rest of her life.
He's okay, he's okay.....
These three words, just in the cycle in her mind, the overwhelming joy fell so hard, smashed her dizzy, these days she is like boiling in a pot of oil, hanging on the cliff, spending every minute and every second of the long time, it is the only trace of faith left that makes her grit her teeth and support.
Seeing that he was safe and sound, Xu Xinyi's eyes suddenly heated, the floodgates of tears opened, and the hot tears couldn't stop flowing out.
Although this thought is very selfish, she keeps saying in her heart: Fortunately, it was not him who sacrificed.
Xu Xinyi has been living in the hospital these days, paying attention to the latest situation in Yingxian every day, the TV is on at any time, and he doesn't sleep, just watching the news.
Now that I finally put my mind at ease, the sleepiness has swept over me like a sea of mountains, and my eyelids are fighting.
But she stared at the TV reluctantly, not wanting to miss any of the pictures, in case she saw He Xiao again.
After struggling for a while, she didn't see He Xiao's figure again, so she couldn't hold on and fell asleep.
*
Nearly a month after the disaster, the reconstruction plan has been implemented, and tens of thousands of volunteers rushed to Yingxian County from all directions to provide psychological counseling to the bereaved and those with shadows in their hearts, take care of women and children, and participate in post-disaster reconstruction.
Celebrities in the entertainment industry have also organized charity donation activities, and those who follow the trend and donate from the bottom of their hearts have all been donated.
The company's representatives, Xu Xinyi and Gu Zixiu, donated one million each.
Xu Xinyi finally couldn't sit still, pushed down all the notices, and volunteered to volunteer in Ying County.
Volunteering is sincere, but the biggest purpose is to find He Xiao, she hasn't seen him for almost a month, and she really thinks about it, so worried that she can't sleep every night.
Some time ago, because of a volunteer's article, Xu Xinyi and Gu Zixiu once again caught fire.
is even known as "the most positive couple in the circle".
It was that time when she and Gu Zixiu inadvertently helped a volunteer, she took a photo, and after leaving the disaster area, she wrote down the situation at that time, and praised Gu Zixiu and Xu Xinyi to the sky.
Then Xu Xinyi, who was originally blackened and had no skin, was blessed by misfortune, and was scolded by black fans for hyping the vase from the beginning, and suddenly a salted fish turned over and became a national goddess with a beautiful heart and a good heart, and was sought after by tens of thousands of people.
At this moment, the company has even more hyped her and Gu Zixiu together, this time it can't be untied, it can be said that they have been tied up by everyone, and the people of the whole country think they are a couple.
Xu Xinyi was dissatisfied many times, and wanted to post an article to explain the relationship with Gu Zixiu, but was stopped by Sister Wang begging her grandfather to tell her grandmother, and persuaded her bitterly, telling her that it was all fake, why should she care? All the good resources were contracted by her and Gu Zixiu, and others only had a red eye.
Sister Wang begged her to that point, Xu Xinyi had nothing to say, and as an artist in the company, it was her job to bring benefits to the company, so she could only treat the hype as a job without distraction.
Because of the affairs in Yingxian County, she was "whitewashed" by mistake, so when Xu Xinyi proposed to go to Yingxian County as a volunteer, Sister Wang immediately agreed.
Moreover, Gu Zixiu was also called.
Thinking of Gu Zixiu's past, Xu Xinyi thought that Gu Zixiu would refuse, but he didn't expect that he would be willing to go to Yingxian County with her.
When I came to Ying County this time, it was inevitable that there would be a few more bodyguards around to protect safety, but when I arrived in the disaster area, Xu Xinyi branched out the bodyguards and distributed food to the villagers.
Although he has been busy, he is absent-minded, wandering around, searching for He Xiao's figure, but he can't find He Xiao for a long time.
Xu Xinyi sighed depressedly.
Even though this sigh was very light and light, Gu Zixiu still heard it, and his eyes were full of concern when he looked at Xu Xinyi: "Sister Xinyi, can you rest for a while when you are tired?" ”
As he spoke, he also took out a tissue and wiped the thin sweat on Xu Xinyi's forehead very considerately.
With such an intimate action, he did it so naturally, and he was really like a loving little couple.
And after getting along for a month, Xu Xinyi's rejection from the beginning has been ground into a habit, I don't know what medicine Gu Zixiu suddenly took the wrong medicine, since returning to Beicheng, her attitude has been several times more earnest than before, during the days when she was hospitalized, even if Gu Zixiu didn't have time, he had to squeeze out some time to see her, peel apples for her, and be considerate.
At first, I thought Gu Zixiu was acting, but after a long time, it didn't look like acting.
Xu Xinyi felt that maybe he had completely let go of the mustard for her, this was the real him, maybe he really took her as a sister, anyway, Xu Xinyi didn't think about it deeply, let alone think that Gu Zixiu liked her.
Xu Xinyi frowned, tilted his head, and avoided Gu Zixiu's intimate actions, and as soon as the impatient words came to his lips, he saw the group of people walking down from the hillside, all of them in olive green military uniforms.
Xu Xinyi saw He Xiao at a glance, who was tall and long, wearing a straight military uniform that lined the jawline tight, cold and hard.
Walking beside He Xiao was a burly man, who looked about sixty years old, his hair exposed to the brim of his military hat was gray, and he was majestic in a military uniform, even if he was far away, he could feel the extraordinary aura of the man.
Not to mention that He Xiao is somewhat similar to the man's appearance, let's just say that the powerful aura is exactly the same.
really gave all his father's advantages.
Xu Xinyi's irritable heart was instantly soothed the moment she saw He Xiao, her gaze was almost greedy, and she couldn't move away from He Xiao.
And the moment Xu Xinyi looked at him, He Xiao also noticed her for the first time.
The scorching gaze collided unexpectedly in the air.
All the thoughts and concerns of each other are silently told when their eyes meet.
But in the next second, Xu Xinyi obviously felt that He Xiao's originally gentle gaze instantly cooled, and he opened his eyes and stopped looking at her.
Because ———— Gu Zixiu was still wiping her sweat.
Xu Xinyi was speechless, he was really unlucky, and he was bumped into by He Xiao again.
She brushed Gu Zixiu's hand away, and her voice was a little high: "Little brother, thank you for your kindness, sister is not tired." ”
deliberately bit the words "little brother" and "sister" to clear up the relationship between the two of them.
Gu Zixiu didn't understand her deliberate alienation at all, and eagerly picked up a bottle of mineral water, unscrewed the lid, and handed it to Xu Xinyi's mouth: "Your mouth is so dry, drink some water." ”
He Xiao had already approached his father He Mingqing, and He Mingqing walked into the board room with a kind smile to comfort the people.
Xu Xinyi ignored Gu Zixiu and stepped forward by himself.
As soon as I got closer, I heard He Mingqing say: "How can you drink cold water on such a cold day?" Then he instructed the people behind him: "Is there any hot water, pour it for the old man, the rice is also cold, take it and heat it again." ”
"Thank you, General." The old man held He Mingqing's hand, and thanked him one by one: "Thank you, comrade soldier." ”
He Mingqing: "This is our responsibility, old man, don't worry, the homeland will be rebuilt, and the Chinese people have the motherland behind them." ”
The old man kept nodding his head and was moved to tears.
"This old life of mine was picked up by this comrade." The old man recognized He Xiao who was standing aside, and hurriedly said excitedly: "When I evacuated at that time, it was very chaotic, all of us were people, they were all busy running for their lives, stepping on and pushing, who cares about me, a half-dead bad old woman, it was this comrade who carried me all the way, and only put me down when he got to a safe place, and his back was full of blood." ”
Xu Xinyi outside the board room listened tightly.
The old man walked up to He Xiao with his eyes full of tears, looking at He Xiao gratefully and distressedly, and asked, "Young man, are your injuries healed?" ”
He Xiao nodded and hooked his lips: "You don't have to worry, okay." ”
He Mingqing patted He Xiao's shoulder, his eyes showing pride and pride.
After chatting a few more words, he left the board room, and as soon as he walked out, he saw Xu Xinyi standing outside the board room.
He Mingqing was stunned for a moment, then recognized it, a little surprised, and smiled: "Heart? How did you get here? ”
Xu Xinyi smiled sweetly and called out respectfully: "Grandpa He." ”
As soon as they heard this title, everyone was speechless, and they all looked at Xu Xinyi, they didn't expect the general to have such a big granddaughter. ?
Xu Xinyi approached and shook the sleeve of the "volunteer" pinned to his arm, "I'm here to volunteer." ”
He Mingqing nodded with satisfaction, "The little girl is sensible." ”
"I haven't said anything about coming back to see me as a grandfather for so many years." He Mingqing said again.
Xu Xinyi stuck out her tongue in embarrassment, and made a coquettish gesture: "I'm sorry, there are too many things to do at work and school." As soon as the words changed, Xu Xinyi tilted his head to look at He Xiao, with a playful expression: "But I went back to see my uncle during the summer vacation, and I spent a very happy vacation." ”
The tone is plain and natural, and I can't hear anything unusual, but there is a deep meaning between the lines, only they understand each other.
He Xiao raised his eyelids and looked at Xu Xinyi, and when he saw Gu Zixiu who was following up, his quiet eyes flashed a few times, and he snorted strangely in his nose: "It's pleasant enough to cause a lot of trouble." ”
Xu Xinyi smiled without saying a word, and stared directly at He Xiao.
Immediately after He Mingqing continued to comfort other people, He Xiao passed by her, looked ahead, and didn't look at her, but Xu Xinyi raised his foot and stepped on his instep fiercely when he walked by.
For him, it didn't hurt at all, but he turned his head slightly, lowered his eyes and glanced at her suspiciously, Xu Xinyi glared back without fear, full of provocation.
He Xiao pulled the corners of his mouth coldly and ruffianly, turned his head, and followed He Mingqing into the next board room.
*
At noon, the common people brought their own meals to the soldiers, and the atmosphere was lively.
Just by eating, He Xiao has a little free time.
How could Xu Xinyi be wasted!
She ran to He Xiao, casually pointed to the small hill behind her, and made an excuse: "Uncle, I want to go over there to have a look, can you take me there?" ”
He Xiao understood her hint in seconds, but deliberately pretended not to understand, because he was still angry.
casually took a puff of his cigarette and dismantled the stage: "What's there to see there?" ”
Xu Xinyi secretly grinded his teeth and died He Xiao.
But he still kept smiling, "I just want to go and see, you can take me, it's too far, I can't drive." ”
When he spoke, he blinked innocently and was coquettish.
Seeing that He Xiao's heart was tickling, he laughed as if compromised, threw the cigarette butt on the ground and stepped on it a few times, and stretched out his hand to the soldier behind him, "Give me the car key." ”
The car key was thrown over, He Xiao caught it, and raised his chin to Xu Xinyi.
Xu Xinyi hurriedly followed, but just as he was about to get into the car, Gu Zixiu suddenly came out, "Sister Xinyi, where are you going?" ”
"I'm going out with my uncle." Xu Xinyi secretly shouted that it was not good, should this Gu Zixiu be going to do something again?
It turns out————
Gu Zixiu stepped forward and grabbed Xu Xinyi's sleeve, looking at Xu Xinyi with bright eyes longing and expectant, cute and cute, like a sticky cat.
"Sister Xinyi, I want to go with you too."
