In this way, not only Jiaxing himself was more satisfied with himself, Kong Wen also felt that his face was bright, and Zhang Rong thought that the students he had cultivated were quite successful. The cadres and soldiers of this telephone company also had a very good impression of this cultural soldier from Shanghai, believing that he was not "talking about a lot of things but not being able to do it in practice," but was "shouting in brackets." mentioned Li Jiaxing and gave a thumbs up and was full of praise.

After entering Korea, the troops began to give each person a bag of rice, which could hold seven or eight catties of rice, and marched all the way to fight, and ate it in a few days. Later, I could only deal with sorghum rice, millet, bud rice, soybeans, potatoes, and even barley particles every day, and I had no relationship with rice and white flour. For nearly a month, the most eaten is fried flour. Some soldiers complained: Chairman Mao asked Gao Gang to eat good noodles for the volunteers, but Gao Gang heard it wrong and gave the volunteers fried noodles.

Shanghai will not be mentioned for the time being, and then let's talk about the Jiaxing side of the Korean battlefield.

"At present, the school is selecting students with good family composition, good English scores, especially those who are fluent in oral English, and who are in good health, to go to the Korean battlefield to work as English interpreters. Junlan said.

In the past, no matter what Jiaxing wrote, it was very beautiful on paper and never altered. But this time, every time he read it, he always felt that something had not been explained clearly. So it was changed and changed, and it was added and added.

Seeing this scene, Lan Zhen made everyone feel very uncomfortable on the first day of the Lunar New Year, so she changed the topic. said: "Kun Sheng, go and set off the artillery." In the new year, let everyone's wealth roll in, and the stars will shine brightly. Go!"

"Mom, yesterday afternoon, I received a letter from Jiaxing from North Korea. The letter said that he had made a second-class meritorious service. He is in good health in every way, so we should not worry about him. Jinxiu said first.

In fact, the most complicated mood now is Jiaxing's mother and Jinxiu, they are really full of thoughts. These two people, one thinks about his son, and the other thinks about his fiancΓ©.

The company sometimes gathers for a military meeting; at night, before the lights go out, the platoon has to take a roll call late; the squad meeting is held once or twice a week; and every Sunday is closed. You can learn culture, write family letters, play poker, and reminisce about the past, tell stories, and talk about family affairs.

"I found it, it's the deputy squad leader of our class, and he agreed. ”

Jiaxing saw the photo and began to read the letter in which Jinxiu wrote five pieces of letterhead. Jiaxing and Jinxiu have been friends for so many years, but it is the first time that Jiaxing has received and read a love letter written by Jinxiu. Her handwriting is upright and delicate, and her sentences are smooth and gorgeous. The letter is full of affection and pours out the pain of lovesickness, and describes the true feelings and lingering sweet words when they hugged each other in the past, and this poetic and picturesque love makes people unforgettable!

At this time, Jiaxing's mother woke up and heard Junlan and them coming, so she also got dressed and came to Jiaxing's house. Junlan and the other three immediately got up to greet the old man. After everyone paid their respects to the old man, Sister Lan Zhen brought the boiled gnocchi to the table. Everyone didn't say anything polite, so they ate this reunion gnocchi. The dumplings were eaten, and the old man gave each person a red paper bag for New Year's money. Everyone said, "Thank you, Mom!" and unceremoniously accepted the red paper package.

Putting these aside for the time being, now turn to Shanghai.

In the forty-fourth round, although it is difficult to meet the lovesickness of the two places, there is a wild goose to pass on the book

"My dad has no opinion, my mom is a little reluctant. Junlan replied.

"Please rest assured, the two company commanders, I will definitely live up to your expectations!" Jia Xing expressed his attitude to the two company leaders.

"Xiao Li, the head of the headquarters has issued an order to promote you to a cultural instructor of the telephone company, and you are being treated at the platoon level, and I will now officially notify you. Kong Wen said, and showed the documents on the table to Jiaxing. Then, Kong Wen said: "You come to the company headquarters to report the morning after tomorrow, and the original cultural instructor will explain his work to you." The class and platoon will have a farewell party for you in the next two days. There is also your application to join the party, the party branch has discussed and approved it, agreed to accept it, and you have found a good introducer."

"Instructor, wait a while to try the dumplings in our class. "OSI squad leader warmly invited.

After the squad leader said, Jiaxing immediately went to the company headquarters and went in to see that the company commander and instructor were there. He asked, "Company commander and instructor, come to me, what instructions do you have?" ”

The troops rested in place, and their military life was very regular. Get up on time in the morning, turn off the lights on time at night, start three meals a day on time, and take an hour's nap at noon. After waking up in the morning, I went out to exercise and ran on the snow. In the morning, I sometimes do a queue, and in the afternoon, I take a lunch break and conduct field training. The training of telephone personnel is to practice collecting and releasing telephone lines over and over again. A crutch line is 500 meters, and the pay-off line is required to be within five minutes, and the take-up line is not more than eight minutes. There is also a content of the terminal, which is required to be connected quickly and firmly.

The old man always said that if his son goes out to see the world and get exercise, he will have a great future in the future. After her son joined the army, she knew that her son was studying in Songjiang, and she was more relieved. Later, she graduated, but she didn't know where she went, and she was already worried. Now that she has received a letter from her son and has gone to the battlefield in Korea, how can she be calm in her heart.

After Jia Xing joined the army and left, his room was empty, so his sister let the three of them go to Jia Xing's room. As soon as Junlan and the other three entered the house, they put the fruits and pastries they brought on the table, and then they greeted their sister for the New Year, arched their hands to each other and said, "Wishing you prosperity!"

"What's the matter?" asked Jiaxing.

"If there is something important, you will know when you go. ”

It is said that this family has passed three tests before and after entering the DPRK: the first was to endure the pain of cutting love, tearing up the university examination papers, and throwing them on both sides of the railway; the second was to march 60 miles in a row, persevering to the end, not falling behind, and winning the victory; and the third time was the successful completion of the task of risking death to inspect and connect the telephone lines under the bombing and strafing of enemy planes.

When Jiaxing saw the letter at the end and said that the three of them were also coming to North Korea, his heart jumped wildly, if he could see them in North Korea soon, especially Jinxiu, it would be great. He couldn't imagine how everyone would feel after seeing him!

"Before I got up, I went to call her. My sister said.

"Hello everyone, happy new year, let's continue to make dumplings. Kong Wen said with a big mouth and a smile.

At the same time, when the Americans fled from the ports of Wonsan and Hamhung, they used to carry away as much as possible what was good for them, and sent planes to blow up what could not be carried away. But the Americans retreated too hastily, and there were several large warehouses that did not have time to be transported away or blown up. As a result, the subordinate units of the three armies of the Eastern Front Corps, braving the artillery fire from the US warships, sent people with mules and horses to carry all kinds of canned food and flour in the warehouses every day, and carried them back and forth for a month. In the end, the transportation was not finished, and the Americans still sent planes to blow them all up. These things were enjoyed by the volunteers for a period of time, and every day each shift was given a five-pound bottle of Kenin milk powder, and a five-pound strawberry, apple, and other fruit pulp. Everyone eats bibimbap, and the milk powder is poured into a bucket and boiled water as tea.

"What about Jinxiu?" asked Mom again.

Just as Jiaxing was about to leave the company headquarters, the communicator Xiaoliang entered the air-raid shelter. When he saw Jiaxing, he shouted happily: "Li Jiaxing, there is a letter from Shanghai! You see, how delicately the handwriting on this envelope is, and the name is Gu Jinxiu, what a beautiful name, it must be a letter written by a girl." There seems to be a picture inside. Xiao Li, hurry up and get a treat! If you don't invite you, you don't want to get this letter!"

Jiaxing's mother was really stumped at this time, and said that she didn't agree, this is the trend of the times; The son has already gone to the battlefield, and now the future daughter-in-law will always feel empty if she also leaves like this. The old man couldn't make up his mind for a moment, so he neither nodded nor shook his head.

Ten days later, there was still no letter from Shanghai. Jiaxing really feels uneasy about sleeping and eating now, and he is simply living like a year.

"You can only send it out for ten days at most. I estimate that you have just received a letter from home, and it will take at least ten days to travel from here to Shanghai. Don't think about it too much, let's wrap the dumplings together first, and eat the dumplings happily. The head of the Fuxi squad said in a comforting tone.

After that, the people of the motherland sent all kinds of condolences and a large number of condolence bags were sent to the hands of soldiers and cadres. Rice, white flour, Chinese cabbage, green radish, and frozen pork from the Northeast have been continuously delivered, and the morale of the volunteers has been greatly boosted!

After his family joined the army and left, Junlan and the other three people came to visit the old man in three days. So it's basically like a family to each other, and it's been to the point where there's nothing to talk about.

"Let her sleep, don't wake up the old man. Junlan said.

Sometimes, on Sundays, one of the things that Quan Lian does together is to make dumplings. Making dumplings belongs to improving life, generally taking the class as a unit, the whole class is mobilized, everyone does it, everyone contributes, and no one will be lazy. On the day of making dumplings, after breakfast, the class would send two or three people to the cooking class to receive flour, pork, cabbage, and seasonings. After these things were brought back, the whole class divided and cooperated, and the noodles were mixed with the noodles, the vegetables were chopped, the meat was chopped with the meat filling, and the dumpling skin was rolled out with the dumpling skin. In the end, the class selects one or two masters, reconciles the dumpling filling, and begins to make dumplings. At the beginning, Jiaxing was a "dumpling leg", that is, he could only gather a few dumpling experts and wrapped dumplings, arrange them neatly in a row, and send them to the room to get dumplings. Later, he diligently learned the secrets of making dumplings from several "masters", and soon he also learned the technique of making dumplings with one or two hands.

"We also received a letter from Jiaxing. He hasn't written to us for more than two months since he graduated from his training class, and we're really worried about him. Now the two of us are relieved, Junlan, do you say yes. Ai Fen also chimed in.

The US troops were driven back to the "38th parallel," and all units of our Eastern Front Volunteer Army were ordered to rest and recuperate in their places. Now, there are far fewer American planes in the Wonsan area. However, the troops still make various preparations in bomb shelters during the day, and at night, they generally live in the homes of ordinary people. After New Year's Day, close to the Spring Festival, the higher authorities informed the military that the military post had been opened, and that it was possible to communicate with families, relatives and friends in China. This is indeed great good news for every cadre and soldier of the Chinese People's Volunteers. Jiaxing wrote three letters in one go, one long letter to his mother, Junlan, and Jinxiu. I wrote five or six sheets of paper for each letter, and after I finished it, I read it several times.

"What's your father's and mother's opinion?" Jiaxing's mother asked in turn.

"Do you want to go?" Kun Sheng asked Junlan.

At this moment, the platoon leader Qu came to the squad and said something to the Fuxi squad leader, and the Fuxi squad leader said to Jiaxing: "Xiao Li, you go to the company headquarters now, and the instructor is looking for you." ”

Will these three people come to North Korea, and if they do, will they meet each other?

"This is thanks to the education of the class leader. Jiaxing said kind words.

After beating the American soldiers away, the hard days were over, and the good fortune of the volunteers on the Eastern Front came. At the beginning, it was North Korea's Prime Minister Kim Il Sung who said that the volunteers had worked hard and rewarded 600,000 bales of rice. The rice cooked from this Korean rice is white and fragrant, although there are no dishes, just Korean hot sauce and sauerkraut, but everyone in the first class ate five or six bowls of white rice.

"Of course, I agree, and I myself have signed up for the volunteer medical team to go to North Korea for a field internship. Ai Fen said in a very affirmative tone.

"Yes. Why haven't I replied to the letter I wrote so far? Jiaxing said worriedly.

"Yes, I've already signed up. Mom, are you okay?" asked Junlan.

"I have also signed up to go to North Korea. Mom, will you let me go?" Jinxiu very sincerely asked for the opinion of her future mother-in-law.

"Yes, I don't go to school after the New Year, but I have to find a place to do an internship. Ai Fen said.

Li Jiaxing may have grown up from childhood to adulthood, and he really hasn't been so happy in his heart. He was now double happy, very excited, his eyes were already wet, and tears were about to flow out. He hurriedly said to the correspondent: "It's all right, write to me, and say whatever you want." ”

The letter also said that she and Ai Fen had both signed up for the volunteer medical team and might have to come to the front line in North Korea for internships. He also said that Junlan had also signed up and might have to come to the North Korean front as an English translator. also told Jiaxing that both parents, grandmother and so on are in good health.

"Mommy's up?" asked Jinxiu.

She thought that she once asked her son to "serve the country with loyalty", and now that her son has really arrived in North Korea and has made meritorious contributions, she is very happy. Thinking again, it was a battlefield full of artillery after all, and guns had no eyes, so she couldn't sleep all night. But think about it, what tricks can she have? Come to think of it, there's no good way. Now the only thing she can do is pray to God to bless her son with all the best and safer outside!

"Okay, you must come, your dumplings taste very good, I'll definitely come and try them later." Kong Wen said with a smile with his mouth wide open, and went to other classes again.

After Jiaxing finished talking with the squad leader, he immediately went out by himself to find a place where no one was, sat down and carefully unsealed the letter from Jinxiu, and carefully ** the letterhead. There was a four-inch photo in color. Jiaxing held the splendid photo in both hands, looked at it and looked at it for a long time: her cheeks as red as apples, a pair of charming eyes that were bright and bright, two cherry-like dimples, thin lips that were slightly open, and a pair of neat and white teeth were smiling at him, and her smile was so sweet, lovely, sincere, and charming.

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, the comrades in the class were busy making dumplings, but Jiaxing was listlessly thinking about his thoughts. Instructor Kong Wen was about to go to each class, so he arrived at the first class. The soldiers of the first class all put down their work in their hands and gave Kong Wen a New Year's greeting, saying, "Instructor, Happy New Year!"

When the dumplings are wrapped and served, they are the happiest thing to eat. At this time, it is often evaluated which dumpling in the class has the best appearance and taste. Sometimes, each class will exchange two bowls to taste each other. Sometimes, Lianli organizes a dumpling-making competition, which is really fun. The comrades in the class will also compete to see who eats the most dumplings. When Jiaxing was studying in Songjiang, he also made dumplings in his class, and he ate at most thirty, but now it is just a normal thing for him to eat fifty or sixty. The life of the troops during the rest period is really not bad.

In addition to himself, he seriously wrote every letter he wanted to send. At the same time, he also helped many comrades and staff officers in the squad, platoon, and company to write good letters home. Including what kind of sentences to use, which words to use, and what to say. Invisibly, Jiaxing has become a supernumerary cultural teacher in the whole company, and he is very busy. Although he is a little busy, he feels that his life is quite fulfilling. In the past two days, the two correspondents of the company unit have also worked very hard, coming to the class several times a day to collect the letters that the comrades have written and are going to send.

"A pack of cigarettes, the brand should be produced in large quantities!" said correspondent Xiao Liang with a very mischievous smile.

When Jiaxing returned to the class, the squad leader smiled and asked, "Xiao Li, you have been promoted, are you?" Congratulations! You have made such a fast progress. ”

At this time, my brother-in-law Kunsheng suddenly remembered about studying, so he asked, "How many years have you studied in college?"

The Fuxi squad leader had already found out what Jiaxing was thinking, so he called Jiaxing aside and asked, "Xiao Li, what's wrong?

"I've been reading for three years, I've been reading for two years, and there's still one year to go. Junlan replied.

"We also received a letter from Jiaxing yesterday afternoon. He said that everything was fine with him, and told us not to worry about him. He made a second-class meritorious service and reported good news to his family. Mom was very happy to hear this. Lan Zhen also said.

"Xiao Li, I have discussed with the platoon commander, there will be a class meeting tonight, the comrades in the class will give you an appraisal, and the whole platoon will give you a farewell party tomorrow night. ”

"I've heard that the third year is usually an internship. The brother-in-law said again.

"Okay, you go to the commissary and buy it, and I'll pay for it." Jiaxing agreed to a treat. The company commander and the instructor all laughed when they heard this.

Jiaxing thought about it, it was not good to put all these emotions on the face, and he would show everyone a joke. So I cheered up and made dumplings with everyone.

"What are the plans of the three of you?" asked Jiaxing's mother.

"Well, next week's general meeting will approve your application for party membership, and you're ready. Xiao Li, although your call has not been for a long time, your performance is good. I hope that you will continue to work hard in your new position, give full play to your strengths, and contribute to improving the cultural level of our company. "The company commander made a request to Jiaxing.

February 6, 1951 in the solar calendar is the first day of the Lunar New Year. At nine o'clock in the morning, Junlan and Aifen came to Jiaxing's house. Junlan and they had just stood still, and Jinxiu had arrived. Sister Lan Zhen has already gotten up, and her brother-in-law has not gotten up when she sleeps with her son. Jiaxing's mother remembered her son for some reason last night, and she didn't close her eyes well all night after ** tossing and turning, and barely fell asleep when it was almost dawn.

Since entering North Korea, there has been a succession of military operations, and Jiaxing really hasn't had much time to think about personal and family issues. However, as the troops were relatively stabilized and life gradually normalized, ideological problems arose. In particular, after sending out three letters from home, they often wanted to send the letters, did they receive them in Shanghai? What would they think after receiving them? Have they written a reply now? Why haven't they received a reply yet? How many days does it take for this letter to travel back and forth from the DPRK to Shanghai? Every time he sees a correspondent from the company passing by, Jiaxing will ask: Is there a letter from me from Shanghai? But every time the correspondent answers, he feels very disappointed! He will feel that he can't sleep well, he can't even eat well, he can't do anything, and he has no energy to walk.

"You sit, I'll go to cook the dumplings, and everyone will be reunited after eating the dumplings on the first day of the new year. Lan Zhen said and went to the kitchen to cook the gnocchi. When the brother-in-law heard that Junlan and they were coming, he also got up, got dressed, and came to the house. After greeting each other for the New Year, they talked about the recent society, life in Shanghai, the war in Korea, and so on.

"What about Aifang?" Lan Zhen asked.

Ai Fen looked at it and understood in her heart. She had an idea and said, "Mom, this is just a name, whether it can be approved, I don't know yet." Besides, I want to go, I will go with Jinxiu, I studied surgery, and she studied internal medicine. And it's only one year, Junlan is the same, we will soon return to your old man's side to serve you and honor you. Jiaxing's mother was a little excited and a little helpless, and there were tears in her eyes.
