Bai Yajing took the photo album. Some of the photos inside were similar to those she had seen in the photos that had been attached to the letter. But there were many more that she had never seen before.
Her uncle looked up at her. "That woman and her husband have always lived in country A. We'll mainly talk about country A. Take a look at this first..."
Next, her uncle pointed to each photo and his casual notes, explaining them to her in detail. The old man occasionally added his own explanations.
After the two explained things to her for most of the night, Bai Yajing now had enough knowledge about Country A, even though she had never been there before, and was completely able to avoid giving herself away.
"Grandpa, Uncle, I've remembered everything. It's getting late, you should go back to sleep. Uncle, please take a day off tomorrow, don't go. You've been busy for the past few days, take a good rest at home."
I'm leaving first thing tomorrow morning, so I'm entrusting the household to you.
After her grandparents finished packing her luggage, they were persuaded to go and rest.
Now only the three of them were in the main hall.
The uncle sighed, rubbed her head, and finally said, "We've said everything we needed to say, but I still want to remind you, remember, we're here waiting for you to come home."
Upon hearing this, Bai Yajing's nose tingled, and she managed to choke back a sob as she said, "Yes. I know."
After seeing the two off, Bai Yajing went back to her room to sleep and recharge.
The next morning, Bai Yajing put all her luggage into the jade pendant and went to the village chief's house with only a bag.
The battalion commander happened to be there as well.
After hearing why she had come, the two men fell silent for a moment, wanting to offer advice but unsure how to do so.
Bai Yajing didn't give specifics, only saying that she was going to carry out a special mission and her return date was uncertain.
They genuinely didn't want her to go. She was the only child in the Kang family...
But it's also clear that since it's a special mission, it means that the higher-ups have considered this matter, yet they still contacted her, which only means that there's no other way.
With a sigh, he had no choice but to get up and prepare the letter of introduction for her.
"Jing, don't worry about things at home. We and the villagers are taking care of things. You... please take good care of yourself."
The captain's eyes reddened. "Jing, always think of yourself first..."
Moved, Bai Yajing stood up and bowed to the two of them.
"Thank you, both of you. I've got it all in mind."
As soon as we left the village chief's house, my uncle, grandfather, maternal grandparents, and other relatives were waiting at the door.
"Grandpa, Grandma, Grandpa, you can go back now. My uncle will take me home."
The elderly people in the funeral parlor are all quite old, and she doesn't want them to suffer from the bumpy ride back and forth.
The three elderly people didn't say anything, they just watched her quietly.
With tears in her eyes, Grandma stuffed the pancake and boiled egg she had given her into her hands, saying, "Eat these on the way."
"good."
Her uncle took the bag from her and hung it on the handlebars of her bicycle.
"Come on up, I'll see you off."
Bai Yajing nodded, got on her bicycle, and waved to the three of them, "Grandpa, Grandma, Grandpa, take good care of yourselves and wait for me to come back!"
"Okay, okay, I got it."
"Okay, go ahead."
Grandma was already sobbing uncontrollably, so all she could do was turn her back to her and wave goodbye.
After they left, he turned back and stared longingly at their retreating figures...
