At the end of each year, the workload in the unit will increase.

Compared with usual, Zhou Jiao tried her best to delegate power and promote newcomers.

And the work that can be handled by her subordinates, she did not hesitate to send tasks one by one without showing a trace.

Fortunately, she had prepared for it before, and the task of the business trip began to be handed over to people half a year ago.

This year's vacation, she still didn't ask for it.

Because she knew that after a while, her mentality would not allow her to devote herself to work. For her, it is especially worrying, it is better to relax for a while.

And she should also take a break for a while.

During this year's winter vacation, May Day came back first.

As always, I arrived at the point to pick up Zhou Jiao from work, and as always, I entertained my relatives.

He didn't say he might be away for a while......

And the same Zhou Jiao didn't mention these things in a single sentence.

The mother and son chose to wait for Ping An and June 1st to return.

When the New Year came, Zhou Jiao's focus was no longer on work, and she began to prepare New Year's goods in her spare time, leaving more time to accompany her youngest son.

She didn't know what the children would be busy with when she went to work, but as long as she was at home, he would not go out of the door.

This is like everyone's beautiful demeanor, if it is replaced by Liuyi, who likes to be quiet, she may not think much about it, but she understands that even this son wants to go to the front line.

When no one is there at night, she often thinks how can such a selfish person as she have a son who is dedicated to patriotism, why did she only inherit the stubbornness in her bones?

But deep down, I am undoubtedly proud of them.

A few days later, the chopping, kneading, sending, wrapping, and wrapping were over, and it was time for Ping An and the Liuyi brothers to go home.

looked at Zhou Jiao with a smile on his forehead.

The two brothers looked at each other and looked at their mother guiltily. No one knows the sadness behind the smile better than them, but they also love the green uniform.

Their pride in being a soldier has been integrated into their blood, and they want to support the burden of the family with iron bones, and they can support the family for a piece of heaven.

"Coming back? Lost weight. How about Mom making dumplings for you? There are seafood fillings and beef fillings that you like, and this time there are thousands of them at home, which is enough for you to eat. ”

Thousands of dumplings?

The two brothers ran forward with a smile, one of them pulled her on the side, and Liuyi pushed her back and entered the living room to take a seat.

The smiling buddies each raised her arms and massaged them very tacitly, while Wuyi behind her stood behind her and gently pressed and pounded her shoulders, and her face was always tight with a smile in the past.

Zhou Jiao looked at her sons, secretly took a deep breath, suppressed the sadness in her heart, and wiped a smile, "What are you doing, don't rest yet." ”

Ping An shook his head with a smile, "Mom, I'm not tired." ”

Liuyi said complainingly: "Mom, why don't you wait for us to come back together?" Look, your hands are red, what should you do if you have chilblains? ”

"Silly boy, forget your mother, I'll make my own medicine." Zhou Jiao twitched her arm, "Don't press it, I'm not tired, you sit down." ”

The buddy shook his head, and Ping An lowered his head and looked at her arm, "Wait, Grandma Chen will serve dumplings in a while." ”

Liuyi took advantage of her to look at Ping'an, and looked at Wuyi: Hurry up!

Wuyi glanced at him, put aside his gaze, thought about it and was unwilling, rolled his eyes at him again, and reached out to hug his fucking shoulders, "Mom, you don't hurt me anymore when you hurt my brothers." ”

Hearing this, Liu Yi looked at his younger brother with a smile and gave him an appreciative look.

Zhou Jiao echoed funny: "Oh, I forgot to tell you that your brother has also done a lot of work, and the buns and dumplings are beautiful, and he made them in a new way." ”

Ping An joked: "May 11 has always been ingenious. ”

"Big brother, you might as well just praise me for being half of our family's daughter."

"Aren't you just waiting for you to say it?"

Wuyi shook Zhou Jiao's shoulder, "Mom, look, my brother is bullying me again." ”

Zhou Jiao, who was shaken, let out a chuckle, "Okay, punish your brother for eating the buns and dumplings you wrapped." ”

The mother and son were chatting about some relaxed words, and Zhang Guoqing, who had returned from hearing the news, stood in the courtyard and was very relieved, and then he also stepped into the living room with a smile.

"Sons, Dad is back."

"Dad, haven't you been busy lately? How did you lose weight? When Ping An saw him return, he stood up and took his coat and hung it up, and looked at him again with dissatisfaction.

"Is there one?"

Zhou Jiao stretched out her hand and patted her two younger sons, and stood up herself, "You guys, I'll go see Aunt Chen first, okay?" "Of course, I will cook a few more dishes to treat my family.

Looking at her back and leaving, the brother looked at Zhang Guoqing dejectedly, "Dad? ”

Zhang Guoqing sighed when he saw this, "Don't worry, as long as you come back well, your mother will be fine." How many days can you stay at home this time? ”

Ping An looked at Liuyi, faced Zhang Guoqing with a guilty face, and said softly: "I'll leave in three days." ”

Zhang Guoqing was stunned when he heard this, "That is, we can't celebrate the New Year together." What about June 1st? Also set off together in three days? Do you have to go to May Day? ”

The three brothers looked at each other and looked at Zhang Guoqing in embarrassment.

Zhang Guoqing frowned and looked at his youngest son, "Since you have chosen another path, it doesn't matter if you don't go, or forget it." ”

Wuyi walked up to him, squatted down and put his hands on his knees, and looked at him, "Dad, I even arranged the school, you have to believe in your son!" I promise you, I will come back in perfect condition. Not only me, but my brother and they will be safe, and we will have to marry and have children. ”

Zhang Guoqing glared at him, "Didn't you say before that you would keep it at home?" ”

May Day looked at peace for help.

Ping An looked at his father's face, "Dad, let Wuyi go, if you don't let him go this time, he won't be reconciled." And you forgot? He and Liuyi are very lucky together. ”

Zhang Guoqing looked at his son and was silent. I can't help my mother, but I'm coming? It's better to leave a son to accompany Jiaojiao.

Liuyi leaned over and stopped Zhang Guoqing's shoulder, "Dad, we are not reckless. The righteousness is to defend the motherland, but we have never planned for the future, and we will not make you and my mother sad. ”

"I don't think you're going to be able to do anything in the future." Zhang Guoqing frowned deeply, "You have to remember not to be reckless outside, nothing is more important than a small life." ”

"Understand, we promised my mother before that if we were injured, we would have to leave the army."

Zhang Guoqing sighed, what else can be done?

"Accompany your mother these days, don't look at her smiling all the time now, she feels more uncomfortable than anyone else. In order for you to be able to do whatever you want, she went for half a life.

For your mother's sake, you have to be careful outside, don't let her worry, if she is going to fall, no matter when, you can only leave the army. ”
