But she didn't expect that as soon as she entered the living room of the villa, she saw an unexpected person.
Sitting in the living room were Grandma Liu, my grandmother, and my aunt Sun Yuegui who had not been home for many days. Sun Yuegui looked like she had just returned home and looked a little tired. At this time, everyone was sitting together and chatting happily.
䀴Next to Sun Yuegui, there was a young and handsome man in military uniform sitting.
He had a fair complexion, sharp eyebrows, bright eyes, a high nose bridge, and a body as straight as a pine tree. The military uniform he wore not only did not make him look rigid, but instead added a bit of heroism.
When Xia Shige saw him, he blurted out in surprise: "Xia Ziyan! Why are you here?!"
When Xia Ziyan heard Xia Shige's voice, he looked up at her, his eyes full of joy.
He walked a few steps to Xia Shige, hugged her tightly, and then excitedly pulled Xia Shige to look around, saying, "Let me see!... I haven't seen you for more than two years, how come you have lost weight!"
Xia Ziyan is the only child of Sun Yuegui and Xia Guocheng. He grew up with Xia Shige and they have a deep relationship. When they were young, they used to run barefoot to every corner of Anyuan Mountain.
Later, Xia Shige went to college in another province, and Xia Ziyan joined the army, and the brother and sister separated. Although they each embarked on different journeys, the relationship between them has never been broken.
Xia Shige looked at Xia Ziyan and felt as if he was in another world.
In Xia Shige's memory, the last time the two met was when they were separated from their relatives in their previous life.
At that time, all the family members except the two of them died in the mudslide. Xia Shige was extremely sad. When Xia Ziyan learned the news, he went home and hugged Xia Shige and cried for a long time.
Later, Xia Shige and Xia Ziyan arranged a family member's funeral together. A few days later, a natural disaster struck and Xia Ziyan was summoned to join the troops and went to various places with the troops to provide disaster relief.
Xia Shige looked at Xia Ziyan and asked in surprise, "Why are you here?"
In his previous life, Xia Shige never saw Xia Ziyan again until his death, but in this life he actually returned home early.
Sun Yuegui, who was standing by, smiled and said, "During the period when our factory was closed, it was their troops who were responsible for guarding the factory!"
In the past two months, the clothing factory where Sun Yuegui worked had been producing warm clothing according to government requirements. Because of the frequent unrest after the natural disaster, criminals had been taking the opportunity to rob state supplies, so the state sent troops to the factory to guard it.
Coincidentally, the troops sent to garrison Sun Yuegui’s factory were the team that Xia Ziyan was in!
Sun Yuegui continued, "Today, all the tasks of our factory have been completed, and we have started to have a holiday. The army leader knew that Zi Yan's home was here, so he gave him a holiday and asked him to come to visit our home."
During natural disasters, survival is difficult and accidents happen frequently. Many people die in the disaster every minute and every second. In this situation, the military leaders also hope that the soldiers can have the opportunity to spend more time with their families. After all, no one knows whether this meeting will be the last one...
Xia Ziyan nodded and added: "But I only have two days off, I have to go back the day after tomorrow."
Thinking of this, the smile on Sun Yuegui's face disappeared, and she, who was always optimistic and cheerful, had a rare look of sadness on her face.
She really didn't want to be separated from her child again. In a year of natural disasters, which parent could rest assured that their child would be outside all the time? Or go to various dangerous places...
But she also knew that this was Xia Ziyan's mission as a soldier, and she couldn't stop him.
Grandma Liu and Grandma patted Sun Yuegui's hands in a comforting manner. Grandma said, "It's rare for the family to be together. Let's call Huiyin and Guocheng here in advance. Let's have a reunion dinner tonight!"
Sun Yuegui nodded after hearing this. She quickly adjusted her mood, stood up with a smile, rolled up her sleeves and said, "I have been living and eating in the factory for a while, and I can't eat anything. I finally got home. Today I have to cook a few more delicious dishes myself!"
After that, the family called Xia Huiyin and Xia Guocheng. When they learned that Xia Ziyan and Sun Yuegui had come home, they were surprised and happy, and said that they would take a day off and come early today.
After the phone call, the family went to the kitchen together to prepare a sumptuous reunion dinner.
