Wang Qiuli quickly interrupted, "How could anything have gone wrong? We said we were coming back, but who knew there was another mission up there, so we had to postpone our return."
Then he changed the subject, "Hey, this is Xiaoxi, right? You've grown up so much that my second aunt didn't even recognize you. It was when you came back as a child. It's been a few years now, and you're getting prettier and prettier!" As he said that, he held Xiaoxi's hand.
Niu Cuihua wiped away her tears and said, "That's right. You haven't come back for several years. If you wait any longer, these children will be grown up and won't recognize you anymore."
Zhang Huilan glanced at the people gathered at the door and said, "Mom, why don't we go inside and talk." Zhang Huilan had just taken her two sons to Li Dashu's house to talk to Wang Xiuying. When she heard that her second brother and his family had returned, she hurried back with her two children. As a result, when she came back, she saw the whole family standing at the door and talking. She forgot about going inside and mentioned it casually.
"Well, that's right. Look at me, I was so busy talking that I forgot to go into the house. Come on, go in quickly to avoid getting frozen. Especially the two brothers Sanmao and Simao, they have never stayed here with us, so they will definitely not be able to stand it." With that, Niu Cuihua led the whole family into the house.
As soon as he put down his luggage, Qiao Shengli said, "Captain Li, since you are home, I will leave first."
Niu Cuihua only just saw the soldier who had brought her son back and quickly said to him, "No, you can't leave. You have to have a meal at home at least.
Qiao Shengli refused, "Aunt, I really can't. The team still has tasks to do!"
Li Aidang frowned slightly, "Why are you in such a hurry? Come back after dinner. This is an order."
Qiao Shengli immediately stopped and saluted, "Yes."
When it was time for lunch, the whole family gathered together, and the families of Li Aimin and Li Aijun also came. After all, the brothers hadn't seen each other for several years, so they had to get together. Li Aiguo happened to be at home, so they drank some wine.
During the meal, the children sat at one table and the adults sat at another. It was originally a reunion dinner, but Li Mingxi noticed that Sanni Li Taohua was always secretly looking at her second uncle Li Aidang. Unable to help but feel curious, he looked over there but didn't find anything different.
After dinner, after seeing off Qiao Shengli, the adults gathered together to talk. Niu Cuihua thought that the brothers Sanmao and Simao had never played in their hometown, so she sent a group of children to take them out to play. Then Li Mingxi discovered that Sanni had glanced at her second uncle again.
Knowing that Li Taohua is the heroine, everything she does is very meaningful, so Li Mingxi is very curious why Sanni keeps looking at Erbo, so at night, he entered the space.
"Yuezhe, do you know what happened to my second uncle? Why did Sister Sanni keep peeking at him today? Could it be that my second uncle did something to her in a previous life? No way, second uncle has always been in the army, so he shouldn't have had much contact with her!"
Yue Ze glanced at Li Mingxi and said, "Your second uncle is fine, he just encountered some minor problems."
Li Mingxi was curious, "What kind of little problem is it?"
Yue Ze rolled his eyes at her and said, "You'll know in a few days."
Li Mingxi didn't get the answer he wanted and went back to sleep dejectedly. Li Taohua, however, was so shocked she couldn't sleep. She remembered that her second uncle had been seriously injured in his previous life and had been pulled back. How could he be standing here now? This was all so strange!
Could it be that the trajectory of events now was different from that of my previous life? Could I still retaliate? Thinking of this, he viciously kicked Li Xinghua, who was sleeping. Li Xinghua felt dazed and dazed, as if someone had kicked her. She opened her eyes, looked around, saw nothing, and went back to sleep.
A few days later, when Niu Cuihua's excitement had subsided, she asked about Li Aidang's return.
Li Aidang knew that he couldn't avoid this, so he said after thinking about it, "Mom, from now on, I won't go to the south, I'll stay here!"
Niu Cuihua was originally worried about her son going to the border. It was not that she was reluctant to let her child serve in the army. After all, it was an honor to have a soldier in the family at any time. It was just that the place was too far away from home, and she would not know what was happening there.
When he heard his son say this, he immediately said in surprise: "Really? That's great! Are you going to the troops in the provincial capital?"
"No, my superiors want me to go to the armed forces department in our county."
Niu Cuihua immediately realized, "That's not right. Aren't you an official of that rank? Why are you back at the county armed forces? Tell me the truth, did you make a mistake and get punished by your superiors?"
Li Aidang retorted, "No, Mom, I didn't make any mistakes and I wasn't punished!"
Niu Cuihua was anxious, "What's wrong with you?"
Old Man Li, who was always calm, also became anxious. "Yeah, Second Brother, what's wrong with you? Can't you even tell your parents about something?"
Li Aidang said nothing, just lowered his head.
Wang Qiuli, standing nearby, said, "He was injured while on duty because of his love for the Party. Although he received timely medical treatment, his health was damaged and he couldn't stay in the army any longer. He should have been assigned a job there, but the leadership showed no compassion and transferred him back to our home."
When Niu Cuihua heard that the second child was injured, she immediately exploded, "What? Injured? Why didn't you tell me earlier? Is it serious?"
Li Aidang knew his mother would be like this, so he could only comfort her by saying, "It's okay, look, I'm fine now!"
Unexpectedly, at this moment, Old Man Li suddenly spoke up: "I think this is serious. No wonder I always felt something was wrong with you these past few days. It turns out you were injured!"
Niu Cuihua complained, "Why don't you recover before coming back? Why are you in such a hurry? You're old, and you've suffered a lot. How can you not take it seriously?"
Li Aidang looked at the angry Niu Cuihua and said, "Mom, I've almost raised him. Otherwise, the leader won't let me come back!"
Niu Cuihua is actually a person who only talks loudly. She must be heartbroken when she knows her son is injured, but all parents are like this. They will habitually get angry first and then care about their children. Fortunately, Li Aidang is also used to it, otherwise he might really be angry.
"Mom, you don't know. The situation was incredibly dangerous. Of the people who went on the mission with me, I was the most seriously injured, yet I recovered the best. Even the doctors were shocked!" He then looked at his wife and said, "If you don't believe me, ask Qiu Li."
Wang Qiuli quickly tried to smooth things over, "That's right, Mom. You didn't know the doctors said back then that Ai Dang's injuries were too severe. Even if he woke up, he would be disabled. Who knew he would recover so well now?"
Niu Cuihua found it strange. Intuitively, she felt that this was related to Li Mingxi, so she asked, "When did Ai Dang get hurt?"
Wang Qiuli answered casually, "About a month ago, what happened? Mom."
