"Second brother, ......?"

"Aid to the DPRK ......."

Lin Yuhang, who was at the door, was carrying his luggage and stood there looking at Song Yuanchao with a smile.

At this time, Chen Yuqin's voice came from the house: "Aiding the DPRK, is the old man back?" ”

"It's not uncle, it's the second brother who is back!" Song Yuanchao hurriedly took Lin Yuhang's luggage, and at the same time turned around and shouted.

"Oh, it's the second one who is back...... What! You...... Who did you just say came back? ”

Chen Yuqin subconsciously replied at first, but she quickly reacted, her voice suddenly became slightly trembling, and at the same time, there was a hint of doubt in the surprise.

In an instant, Chen Yuqin, who had flour in her hands, ran out in three steps and two steps, and when she saw her youngest son Lin Yuhang standing at the door, Chen Yuqin was stunned at first, and tears fell in an instant.

"Mom...... I am back....... Lin Yuhang stepped forward and gave his mother a standard military salute, and when his hand was just put down, Chen Yuqin grabbed Lin Yuhang's right hand with his mutilated fingers, and tears couldn't stop flowing out.

"Second child, why did you come back all of a sudden? Why don't you even make a phone call in advance? This hand...... This hand...... Does it still hurt? ”

"It's not convenient for the troops to make a phone call, and it will only take two or three days to come back, so I didn't call. This hand doesn't hurt for a long time, you see, isn't this good? Lin Yuhang said with a smile.

"Second brother!" At this time, Lin Yan, who heard the sound, also ran over from the kitchen, saw Lin Yuhang Lin Yan shouted second brother, and then threw herself into Lin Yuhang's arms and cried.

Lin Yuhang smiled and touched Lin Yan's head: "Silly girl, why do you cry when you see each other?" I still love to cry as much as I did when I was a child, and now I'm a big girl and still crying my nose? Is there a shame in it? ”

"I'm just crying! Just cry! Lin Yan, who is quiet on weekdays, sprinkled Jiaojiao in Lin Yuhang's arms like a child today, crying like rain.

"Okay, okay, just cry a few times, and if you cry again, your second brother's clothes will be wet for you." Lin Yuhang smiled helplessly.

Wiping away her tears, Lin Yan realized that her tears had wet Lin Yuhang's chest, she blushed a little embarrassed, and then her eyes fell on Lin Yuhang's left eye and right hand like Chen Yuqin.

Lin Yuhang's right hand is missing the index finger and middle finger, and his left eye was blinded by shrapnel on the battlefield, and now he has a false eye, although the fake eye is similar to the real eye, but if you look closely, you can clearly feel the difference, because the dentures can't rotate like the real eye, and they don't have the luster of the real eye.

"Second brother, your eyes and hands ......."

"It's okay, it's long gone, isn't it okay now?" Lin Yuhang said with a smile, Chen Yuqin wiped her tears on the side, her youngest son has been strong since he was a child, and he originally had a great future in the army, but now everything is gone, not only leaving a disability that can never be remedied, but also leaving his beloved army.

But compared to the emotional Lin Yan, Chen Yuqin quickly returned to normal. As early as after the news of Lin Yuhang's injury came, Chen Yuqin had today's psychological preparation. As a cadre, a cadre who has been educated and cultivated by the organization for many years, although Chen Yuqin is heartbroken for the current Lin Yuhang, no matter what, compared with those soldiers who died on the battlefield, Lin Yuhang finally came back safely.

Lin Yuhang's return home surprised everyone with surprise, and when he entered the house, Chen Yuqin put down the dumplings he was wrapping and made a bowl of noodles for Lin Yuhang.

In the north, there is a custom of long and short delivery, which is to go out to dumplings and make a bowl of noodles for your son, which represents the return of the child and the mother's strong love for her son.

Smelling the fragrant noodles, Lin Yuhang smiled. I haven't eaten my mother's noodles for many years, but today I finally tasted my mother again.

Seeing Lin Yuhang's delicious food, Chen Yuqin also had a smile on the corner of her mouth, but when she noticed that Lin Yuhang was holding chopsticks with her left hand, Chen Yuqin couldn't help but feel another burst of heartache.

Just after eating noodles before he had time to clean up, Lin Daoyuan came back, when Lin Daoyuan saw Lin Yuhang who stood up from the living room to greet him, he was also stunned, and when his eyes fell on Lin Yuhang's left eye and right hand, Rao is usually serious Lin Yuhang's eyes couldn't help but reveal softness and warmth.

"Coming back?"

"Dad, I'm back!"

"All the wounds are healed?"

"It's all good!"

"Have you completed all the formalities on the troops?"

"That's it!"

"Good!" Lin Daoyuan looked at his son, raised his hand and patted Lin Yuhang's shoulder twice: "Boy, I didn't embarrass your father, it's good!" ”

"Thank you, Dad......." Lin Yuhang replied with a smile, his heart warm. As Lin Daoyuan's son, he and Lin Jianhang have always grown up under Lin Daoyuan's strict requirements since they were young. Compared with his mother, Lin Daoyuan, as a father, has always been a strict father in their hearts, and what his father said to himself today is the best praise for Lin Yuhang, which makes Lin Yuhang happier than commendation and awards in the army.

After eating, everyone sat down in the living room, Song Yuanchao handed Lin Daoyuan and Lin Yuhang father and son cigarettes, helped light them, and then sat quietly aside.

Taking a puff of cigarette, Lin Daoyuan glanced at his son, thought for a while, and said: "You did a good job in the army, but now that you have left the army, the glory and achievements of the past are in the past from now on, and everything has to start all over again when you return to the place, do you have this confidence?" ”

"Lao Lin, this is your office, isn't this your home, and you gave him a political lesson as soon as your son came back?" On the side, Chen Yuqin glanced at Lin Daoyuan dissatisfiedly, is this old man stupid to be an official? Is it interesting to say such things to your son?

"Mom, Dad said this for my good, it's a reminder, Dad is right!" Lin Yuhang hurriedly explained to Lin Daoyuan, Chen Yuqin suddenly became angry, he thought about his son for the sake of his son, but his son didn't sell it? Helping the old man speak? What's this called?

Chen Yuqin, who was huffing and huffing, simply stopped talking, and sat aside to ignore the father and son, but her ears were still pricked up, listening carefully to the conversation between their father and son.

"Dad, I understand your words, I thought carefully before making a report, and I was prepared." Lin Yuhang answered Lin Daoyuan's question without being arrogant or humble, and listening to his answer, Lin Daoyuan nodded slightly.

"Do you have any thoughts on how to arrange your work when you come back?" Lin Daoyuan asked.

"I don't have any ideas, but I still want to do something real." Lin Yuhang replied like this, Chen Yuqin, who didn't speak in front of him, couldn't help it anymore as soon as these words came out, and hurriedly said: "Son, you don't have to think about this matter, your mother has already helped you think about it, come back and rest at home for a few days, take care of yourself, as for the work, you are not in a hurry, you are a combat hero, you are still a battalion-level cadre in the army, and you can arrange a good job when you return to the local area, both public and private, and your mother will make up your mind for you." ”

"Mom, there's no need for this, in fact, you can do any job, but just like I said to my dad, I want to do something practical, if I just find a quiet place to sit in the office every day, drink tea and read the newspaper or something, I don't need to change jobs."

"You kid, what's so bad about sitting in the office......?" Chen Yuqin frowned and was about to continue to say something, but at this time, Lin Daoyuan coughed, interrupting Chen Yuqin's train of thought.

"This is not in a hurry, your mother just said that is right, since you are back, you should rest at home for a few days first, take care of your body and then think about work."

These words made Chen Yuqin feel pleasing to her ears, and she looked much better at her husband's face for a while, this old man finally understood something, this is human words, don't always keep a face in the unit, and when you go home, you also look like a businessman, who will show the face of the family?

Suddenly, Chen Yuqin remembered something and asked Lin Yuhang about Rowling.

"Mom, why did you mention her all of a sudden?" Lin Yuhang didn't expect Chen Yuqin to ask about Rowling, and asked him if he had any contact with Rowling these days, and the relationship between the two had reached that level.

Hearing his mother ask him about this, Rao is Lin Yuhang is soldier couldn't help but blush, and his expression was a little embarrassed.

"What's not to mention? Linlin is not an outsider, I watched her grow up, no different from a swallow. Besides, Linlin likes you, we as parents have known for a long time, you are not small, and now you have changed jobs, since you have left the army, you have to think about your life's events, you are not in a hurry, I am still anxious to hold my grandson! Don't expect you to be able to count on your brother? He is now stumbling and crawling in the army every day, and he can't even see a mother around him, counting on him? Save it! ”

Saying that, Chen Yuqin showed a complaining expression, her two sons are nearly thirty years old, but they have not married until now, they have already married their peers, and the eldest children are all soy sauce, Chen Yuqin, a mother, can she not be in a hurry?

"This is the ...... Let's talk about this slowly...... Beads of sweat oozed from Lin Yuhang's forehead, even if he went to the battlefield, he didn't face his mother's inquiries to make him feel so stressed.

"Slow what? Linlin is also a big boss, I met her mother a few days ago and chatted with her mother for a few words, and I heard that she is also going to be demobilized and come back. It just so happens that if you young people have no opinions, we will decide this matter for you as elders, and when Linlin comes back, I will go to Lao Luo's side with your father to propose marriage, and then find a time to do it. ”

"Mom...... I...... I....... Lin Yuhang was sweating profusely, why did he suddenly get caught off guard.

"Brother, you don't think Linlin is not worthy of you, do you?" Lin Yan, who was on the side, couldn't help but ask, Rowling is her best friend and a good friend, if Rowling can marry Lin Yuhang, Lin Yan, as a friend and sister, raised her hands and feet in agreement.

This is a good thing, and now Lin Yuhang's twisting and pinching appearance made Lin Yan suddenly unable to hold his breath, and asked bluntly unceremoniously.

"What do you say, how can you have such an idea, if you want to say who is worthy of whom, then I am not worthy of Rowling, I am now a crippled ......."

"What's wrong with the cripple? Is my son crippled for the country, or a combat hero! Without waiting for Lin Yuhang to finish speaking, Chen Yuqin directly interjected indignantly, which immediately made Lin Yuhang not know how to answer.

Helpless, Lin Yuhang could only turn his eyes to Lin Daoyuan for help, hoping that Lin Daoyuan could help him say a few words. But who would have thought that Lin Daoyuan took a puff of cigarette and glanced at his son, got up and said, "Linlin, this girl is good, don't let down others in the future." Okay, I still have something to do, you can talk. ”

After speaking, Lin Daoyuan walked to the study under Lin Yuhang's stunned, and then the door of the study closed and his father disappeared.
