The uncle and nephew felt the dryness in the air as soon as they got off the train.

Before I arrived, I had already called my uncle's comrade-in-arms, so as soon as I got off the train, I saw a military jeep parked not far from the entrance. The person who came was holding up a wooden board that read: Welcome Bai Yajing, Comrade Bai Yunshu.

Bai Yajing wasn't surprised that her uncles and aunts arranged for military vehicles to pick them up; after all, they were descendants of meritorious martyrs. This time, they were there to present a medicinal prescription.

With this prescription, how many more soldiers' lives can be saved every year!

She led her fourth uncle forward quickly and gave a standard military salute. "Hello, comrade, I am Bai Yajing."

"Hello, comrade, I am Bai Yunshu!"

The man who arrived was Commander Zheng's communications officer. He was tall and imposing, exuding masculinity, and he returned the salute solemnly.

"Hello, comrades. I am Xiao Zhao, the communications officer for Regiment Commander Zheng. The regiment commander is in a meeting today and specifically asked me to come and pick you up."

I'd heard Commander Zheng mention Comrade Bai a few times before, and seeing him in person, I can confirm it's quite impressive. I'm not talking about his appearance, but rather his demeanor; he gives off a very comfortable and positive feeling. Soldiers like him the most.

"Thank you for your hard work, Comrade Zhao. Let's go now."

Xiao Zhao put the two people's bags into the car and drove them to the military region.

The three chatted idly along the way. Bai Laosi and Bai Yajing were both good talkers, and they coaxed Xiao Zhao into talking about his family matters at length. However, he wouldn't discuss anything about the leaders, and neither of them asked. That was a matter of discipline.

When they arrived at the military region, Xiao Zhao escorted them to Regiment Commander Zheng's office.

"Hello, Uncle Zheng! I am Ya Jing, and this is my fourth uncle, Bai Yunshu!"

Upon seeing her, Commander Zheng jumped to his feet, his eyes welling up with tears. "Good, good, good! She looks just like your uncle! So much like him!"

Realizing she had lost her composure, she quickly wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes and greeted the two of them again.

"Comrade Bai Yajing, Comrade Bai Yunshu, I am Zheng Zhiguo, a comrade-in-arms of Kang Jianye! Welcome to the military headquarters!"

As he was talking, he excitedly pulled the two of them out of the office to find other people.

"Those guys were overjoyed when they found out you were coming! If it weren't for the emergency meeting today, they would have come to pick you up already!"

They're all waiting for you at the cafeteria! We'll treat you to a welcome-home feast.

"Okay, I miss all my uncles and elders too."

The uncle and nephew were also happy, and the three of them chatted and laughed all the way.

"Ya Jing, how are Uncle Kang and Auntie doing?"

Have you thought about what you want to do after graduation?

"Brother Bai, your family's story has been in the newspaper. All of us brothers have seen it and we are all very impressed!"

Commander Zheng was a warm-hearted person, and he never stopped talking along the way. The uncle and nephew also had a lively exchange of questions and answers.

He stopped talking when they reached the entrance of the cafeteria.

They went straight into the kitchen without lingering outside.

There was already a table full of people waiting inside, and the food was being served one after another.

Upon seeing them arrive, they all warmly stood up to greet them.

Bai Yajing called them over one by one, and even acted as an introducer for her fourth uncle.

However, when it was a woman's turn to speak, she got stuck.

She had never seen a picture of this woman, and none of the people who had contacted her were women, so she didn't know what to call her.

He hurriedly turned to those around him for help.
