Chapter 97: 'Hardcore Feeding' from the Villagers
Ye Ying just felt wronged. She had clearly helped a lot, so how could she have been a problem?
But this didn't seem to be enough, Li Yanmei also followed and said: "Yingzi, just follow Captain Ji, oh... Lian Qi, and your brother back to the county! You don't have to worry about this, we believe that the country will take care of it for us ordinary people."
As he was talking, he pulled Ye Ying aside mysteriously and whispered, "It's mainly about Xiaotong. You have to send her home as soon as possible! She has been in our village for nearly a month, and her family must be worried sick!"
"She has been here for such a long time, and unfortunately encountered a flood. Fortunately, she was lucky, otherwise you...you damn girl would have harmed others!"
"Besides, I'm afraid that if the police come to your door someday, you'll become a human trafficker!"
"This..." Ye Ying turned her head and looked at An Xiaotong hesitantly.
In fact, she also wanted to send her home as soon as possible.
But in this situation now, she just left like this...is that really a good thing?
"Go!" As if seeing through Ye Ying's concerns, Li Yanmei said, "If you are really worried about your family, send the little girl home, and then come back!"
Wang Lijun, who was standing by, heard their conversation and also advised:
"Yes, Ye Ying. I think this girl's family is not bad. I'm just afraid that her family is rich and powerful. If they accuse you of kidnapping their child, it will be a big trouble."
Widow Li stepped forward at the right time and said, "Ye Ying, don't worry. Just because you saved my life that day, if there is anything wrong with your family, Huang Biao and I will help!"
"It's important to send the little girl home first. If that doesn't work, you can just let her go with the PLA comrades!"
Although Huang Biao will not be released for a few more days, Widow Li said so, and her expression did not seem fake, so she must really want to help.
An Xiaotong didn't know if she heard anything, and she hurried to Ye Ying's side.
"I won't follow anyone. I'll just stay with Aunt Ye Ying."
"I know you want me to go back to my home, but I don't want to go back to that home at all!"
After yelling, An Xiaotong ran away angrily.
No one expected An Xiaotong to react so strongly.
Just when Ye Ying was in a dilemma, Ji Lianqi came over.
"Ye Ying, why don't you take her back with us first. Then we can ask Political Commissar He to come forward and ask the police station to help investigate the details of the child's family. Once everything is settled, we can send her back."
"Is this...really possible?" Ye Ying was still a little hesitant.
"The problem now is that she only listens to you."
After thinking about it, Ye Ying finally gave in and said, "Okay, let's go back together first. I'll come back to help after I've dealt with the child's problem."
Finally, An Xiaotong was persuaded by Ye Ying to follow her back to the military compound.
When they left, the villagers of Dayan Village chased the PLA military vehicles all the way.
The villagers bid farewell with tears in their eyes, tightly holding the PLA's hands, which were covered with coils.
The soldiers on the carriage didn't even have time to change out of their dirty camouflage uniforms.
They patiently persuaded the villagers to stop and sent them here.
But their persuasion has no effect at all.
If the flood had not destroyed everything they had, the military vehicles would have been loaded with autumn harvest crops.
Although their harvest was ruined, they were determined not to let the PLA return empty-handed.
Therefore, they stuffed the materials donated from all over the society into the hands of the People's Liberation Army.
When the PLA refused to take them in, they took the opportunity to throw them into the carriages.
Soon, every military vehicle was packed full.
"Two fists cannot defeat four hands." The PLA soldiers were completely unable to resist the enthusiastic villagers.
Because in the eyes of the villagers of Dayan Village, if the People's Liberation Army had not come to support them in time this time, they would have been finished long ago.
In their view, the PLA is the one they should be most grateful to.
Ye Ying was watching this 'hardcore feeding' in the car and found it incredible.
She had only seen scenes like this on TV.
At that time, she just thought it was a dramatic effect created by the media to praise him.
This time she saw it with her own eyes.
Because of the people who came to see them off, the PLA military vehicles did not dare to drive too fast, for fear that even a bicycle would be faster than these four-wheeled vehicles.
Later on, military vehicles could only drive a certain distance and stop at certain places because of the "blockade" by the people.
It took the PLA troops two or three hours to evacuate the two kilometers away from Dayan Village.
Ye Ying felt mixed emotions when she saw this scene of close friendship between the military and the people.
She subconsciously thought of the song "Ten Farewells to the Red Army" which she had sung at the August 1st Gala, and she almost blurted it out.
...
Nine Farewells to the Red Army
The gong is silent and the drum is not struck
Holding the long rope's hands, my heart is smiling like a yellow lotus
How can we forget the love between flesh and blood?
.....
Ye Ying really didn't expect that her accidental trip back to the 1980s would actually lead her to be associated with red culture.
It even brought out her deep patriotism.
"Ji Lianqi, why do you look so indifferent? Why don't you go down and wave to the common people?" Ye Ying couldn't help but ask as she looked at Ji Lianqi's calm expression.
Ji Lianqi glanced at Ye Ying calmly and said a few words: "I've seen too much."
"If I leave now, the people will send me off endlessly."
That’s right, the People’s Liberation Army will appear wherever it is needed.
This kind of scene must be very common to them.
On the way back to the military compound, Ye Ying learned that Zhou Lingling's husband, Wang Fei, was gone.
After Ji Lianqi led a group of people to Dayan Village for support, Xiangyang Town was handed over to Wang Fei.
The disaster there was not as serious as in Dayan Village. He was worked to death.
I didn't sleep for several days and nights, and after I lay down, I never opened my eyes again.
Upon hearing the news, Ye Ying was stunned for a moment.
Although Zhou Lingling didn't agree with her, she really didn't want to see death happen, no matter who it was.
With a heavy heart, perhaps because she was too tired, Ye Ying slowly leaned on Ji Lianqi's shoulder and fell asleep.
Ji Lianqi stared at the big fat plate that was so close to Ye Ying in an instant, and raised his right hand almost reflexively.
After hesitating for a while, he let it go quietly.
Ye Ying slept like this all the way, and so did An Xiaotong.
It was about 70 kilometers away, and by the time the military vehicle returned to the compound, it was already evening.
Upon learning the news of their return, the military wives had already been waiting at the gate of the compound.
Sun Lin, who had been suffering for a long time, burst into tears the moment she saw Wei Hongxing getting off the military vehicle safely.
She bit her lips tightly and stared at Wei Hongxing, who still had a white bandage around his head.
