Chapter 237 End of Chapter 237
Tang Sisi said anxiously: "Be careful, Zhang Xiaohui is pregnant with his child, he is here to save people!" She spoke anxiously, causing another series of coughing, and this time she was almost out of breath.
Lin Yue was startled and turned his head to look over, only to see that Li Zhiguo had already picked up Zhang Xiaohui and was running quickly back the same way. The place where Zhang Xiaohui had been lying was a glaring red, as if the snow was dyed red by blood.
It was her fault for letting down her guard just now. Li Zhiguo moved too quickly and it was too late for Lin Yue to chase him now.
She had another patient here who needed to be treated quickly, so Lin Yue made a quick decision and gave up the idea of chasing after her. She forcefully opened Tang Sisi's mouth, stuffed a candy bean into her mouth, and then carefully carried her to the sled. She held the sled with one hand and Wanli with the other, and walked down the mountain with one foot deep and one foot shallow.
Tang Sisi could clearly feel that her body was much better than before. She smiled bitterly in her heart. She didn't expect that she would encounter such a strange thing before she died. There really are people in this world who have the ability to bring the dead back to life.
But it was of no use to her. Even if her life was saved, her life could not be saved.
The best ending for her is to die at this moment. Now that she is dead, she can be considered to have done something good, at least there are still people who can remember her kindness. She understands human nature too well. A dead person is always easier to gain others' understanding and more likely to be remembered for her kindness than a living person.
You see, she is such a selfish person. Even when it comes to life and death, she has to calculate people's hearts and weigh the pros and cons.
Tears kept streaming down Tang Sisi's face. Her wounds were healing slowly at a speed she could even notice. She could really feel that she could survive as long as she wanted to.
The way down the mountain was not easy. It started snowing again, and the snowflakes blocked her vision, making it even harder for Lin Yue to walk. She was a little anxious, fearing that if she walked too slowly, she would delay Tang Sisi's treatment.
Wanli held his mother's hand tightly. Although he had short calves, he tried to walk faster and try his best to catch up with his mother's pace.
The two of them didn't know how far they had walked, but finally heard a sound other than birds and beasts. Lin Yuehun huddled up tightly, hiding Wanli behind her. She looked at the foot of the mountain with caution, and a group of people ran over quickly. When they got closer, Lin Yue discovered that the person leading the group was Zhang Yuandong.
Zhang Yuandong also saw Lin Yue. He ran over and almost tripped over the snow several times. When he finally got close, he asked anxiously without waiting to catch his breath, "Are you all okay? Are you injured?"
Seeing him, Lin Yue's strength suddenly disappeared. She nodded blankly and asked woodenly, "Where's Lingling?"
"Don't worry, Lingling is doing fine. I put her in a fellow villager's home and arranged for someone to protect her. She is safe."
"What about that guy? Was he caught?"
"We caught them all."
Zhang Yuandong looked at her worriedly, "Wife, what's wrong with you?"
Lin Yue's tears suddenly flowed down, and his face finally showed emotion. "Zhang Yuandong, I let Zhang Xiaohui run away again. Tang Sisi was injured in order to save me and Wanli, and she didn't let me treat her..."
Zhang Yuandong quickly hugged her in his arms, patted her on the back, and coaxed her: "Okay, okay, it's okay, I'm here, I'll take care of the rest..."
He waved behind him, signaling the warriors following behind him to come forward.
Wanli saw his mother crying sadly in his father's arms. He felt that he, a little child, was being ignored. At this moment, his emotions finally overwhelmed him and he started crying too.
Lin Yue was not a weak person. She just saw someone she could rely on and couldn't control her emotions. After venting her emotions, she didn't feel so bad anymore. Seeing her son crying so sadly, she couldn't help but laugh first. As a result, she cried and laughed at the same time, and she almost ran a nose. She quickly covered her nose with her hand, and her face turned red.
Zhang Yuandong had no time to comfort his son. Seeing the people behind him catch up, he gently let go of Lin Yue and said to Sun Fangqing, "Appoint two people to take Tang Sisi to the hospital, and arrange for someone to chase Zhang Xiaohui. Arrange more people so that she doesn't run away."
Lin Yue said quickly: "She was rescued by Li Zhiguo. I saw that the direction he fled was the same as the way you came here. Didn't you meet him on the way?"
Sun Fangqing found it hard to accept for a moment, "Li Zhiguo, Instructor Li? How is that possible?"
Lin Yue nodded. She thought of what Tang Sisi said, that Zhang Xiaohui was pregnant with Li Zhiguo's child. Although she believed it in her heart, she didn't have sufficient evidence. She didn't want to spread it casually, so she just said, "Zhang Xiaohui is the sister of Zhang's wife. She had been living in his house before."
Sun Fangqing was a little confused. He scratched his hair, pointed at a dozen people and said, "Hurry up and chase along this road. If it's Instructor Li, ten people like me won't be enough for him to deal with!" Before he finished speaking, he had already hurried away with his people.
As soon as Sun Fangqing left, Xiao Zhuang cried out in surprise. He was originally checking Tang Sisi's injuries, but he quickly stood up and reported to Zhang Yuandong: "Captain, Tang Sisi is dead."
Lin Yue was a little unconvinced and forced a smile, "Xiao Zhuang, are you kidding me? How could Tang Sisi die? I checked her and she can survive to go to the hospital."
Xiao Zhuang showed a trace of pity on his face. He moved his feet to block Tang Sisi's body and looked at Zhang Yuandong in embarrassment: "Captain..."
Lin Yue didn't care about much, he pushed open the door and came to Tang Sisi in two or three steps.
Tang Sisi's face had turned blue from being frozen. She lay there motionless with her eyes closed, looking peaceful and relieved.
Lin Yue clearly fed her sugar beans, how could Tang Sisi die!
She looked at Tang Sisi's body and saw that she was curled up a little, with both hands in her shirt. She curled up one leg, lying slightly on her side, but her head was looking straight at the sky. She lay there motionless, her whole body was as conflicted as she was.
Lin Yue felt a little strange. Tang Sisi was a woman who paid great attention to her appearance. Even when she was working as an insider for Zhang Xiaohui, she tried her best to be clean. But now, her blood had stained her clothes. Because of the low temperature, they stuck to her body. The hem of her shirt was lifted up by her hand, which was not very decent.
She walked forward slowly, trying to take Tang Sisi's hand away, but her eyes were attracted by the hole on her chest. Lin Yue thought of something, and slowly lifted her clothes. In an instant, her pupils shrank rapidly, and she saw a scene that she would never forget in her life.
Tang Sisi's hands became claws, and she used her strength to pry open the wound on her chest. The wound left by the bullet was originally very small in diameter, but now she tore it into a bloody mess. The temperature in winter is very low, and the blood will soon cool into ice after it flows out. Then Tang Sisi will use her hands to tear the wound open again to let more blood flow out.
Lin Yue covered her mouth. The forest was quiet. She and Wanli were walking in front and didn't hear any special sounds. So when Tang Sisi did all this, she endured the tremendous pain and didn't let herself make a sound.
Xiao Zhuang covered Wan Li's eyes to prevent the child from seeing this horrific scene. Wan Li seemed to have guessed something, and quietly let Xiao Zhuang half cover his eyes, and closed his eyes unconsciously.
Zhang Yuandong took off his hat and stared at Tang Sisi's body for a while. He took off his coat and covered her body with it.
Tears were falling from Lin Yue's eyes. She thought that she shouldn't have not spoken to Tang Sisi all this time. If they had just exchanged a few words on the road, she would have noticed something was wrong with her. But she was distracted and didn't think about it.
She thought about a lot of things in her mind, and suddenly stopped. Her eyes returned to Tang Sisi's wound, and she grabbed Zhang Yuandong's hand at a loss, trembling: "I, I shouldn't give her medicine. She said, she didn't want me to save her. If..."
If she had not self-righteously fed Tang Sisi the medicine, Tang Sisi would have died more easily and would not have had to suffer so much before her death.
Zhang Yuandong patted her back gently and repeated over and over again: "This is not your fault. It was her own choice. Don't take the responsibility on yourself."
When Lin Yue returned home, Zhang Yuandong arranged her on the kang and whispered, "Don't worry about the rest. Get some good sleep first."
Lingling and Wanli stood by the kang, looking at her eagerly. After what happened today, the two children were more attached to her than before. Zhang Yuandong signaled to the two with his eyes, "Let your mother have a rest, don't disturb her!"
The two of them were frightened quite a bit today, and today, it was because they believed the intelligence and thought that Zhang Xiaohui and the others really had no time to come here again, so they took the children out without catching them.
Lin Yue felt that she had failed to protect them, which had put them in danger. She waved her hand and said to the two children, "Come up and sleep with me for a while."
The two children seemed to have received an imperial decree. They made faces at their father and hurriedly climbed onto the kang.
Zhang Yuandong was at a loss, so he said, "Then you guys should sleep a little longer. I'll go pick up Xiao Mushroom and Sisi later, and get some food from the cafeteria. You don't have to cook."
Lin Yue nodded. She knew that Zhang Yuandong must be busy with many things at the moment, so she urged him, "Go ahead and do your work. Don't worry about us."
張遠東又給這娘兒仨塞了塞被角，才急匆匆的出了門。
等林樾再次醒來，已經是暮色四合了。
屋裏靜悄悄的，張遠東和幾個孩子都不在，只有王婷婷和陶來香坐在炕邊。兩人怕把林樾吵醒，說話的聲音都是輕輕的。
林樾揉着昏沉的腦袋，撐起身子問：“我怎麽睡了這麽久，現在是什麽時候了？”
兩人聽到響動，齊齊朝這邊看過來。見是林樾醒了，兩人臉上綻放出了大大的笑容。
陶來香搶着道：“小林，你可終于醒啦，你睡得太香了，我們都沒好意思叫你！”
林樾這會腦袋還不是很清醒，迷糊着問：“是呀，我不是和幾個孩子一起睡的嘛，怎麽沒見到他們？”
“你家張團長被部隊那邊叫走了，那幾個孩子早醒了，在家閑不住，也都跑出去玩了。要我說呀，你家那幾個孩子就是懂事，知道不能吵醒你，幹啥都俏沒聲兒的，聽話的很！”
王婷婷剛想開口，話就又讓陶來香搶了過去。她笑着不再言語，安靜的坐着，聽陶來香把話說完。
林樾最近和她接觸多了，知道她這是有話要說，笑着道：“嫂子來多久了？我睡了這麽長時間，竟然一點也不知道，怠慢你了。”
“嗨，咱倆誰跟誰，有什麽怠慢不怠慢的！”陶來香說着，神神秘秘的湊上前，問道：“所以，那件事是真的了，她真的有問題？我就說這年紀輕輕的小姑娘，不貪玩不愛俏，怎麽淨打聽那些有的沒的！”
林樾有些招架不住的往後躲，尴尬的笑道：“這我也……”
“你就別不承認了，這事兒呀，大家都傳開了！你睡着的時候，來了一隊官兵，把章玉蘭給帶走了。她走得時候鬼哭狼嚎的，說她可沒有做叛國的事兒，都是被那女人給蒙騙了。她當時嚷嚷的很大聲，大家都聽到了的！”
陶來香眼裏閃着興奮的光，接着道：“而且，我可是親眼看到了，她因為掙紮的太厲害了，剛出門沒多久，就有東西從她衣服裏掉了出來，原本鼓囊囊的肚子一下子就癟了，她根本就沒懷孕！”
林樾被她的話吸引，也不由得吃了一驚。只聽陶來香接着問道：“你說她圖個什麽呀，之前她婆家那邊都說了，李指導員的弟弟會過繼一個孩子給她，咱們誰也不會笑話她，她整這出是幹什麽呀！”
還能幹什麽，今天林樾聽唐思思說，張小惠懷了李志國的孩子，那時候太過緊急，她沒有往深了想，但是現在聽了章玉蘭的事情，她還有什麽不明白的。
或許李志國兩口子真的沒有通敵的想法，可他們的欲望促使他們犯下了大錯，輕易的被那些人找到了漏洞。
而且這會再去回想，李志國和章玉蘭不一定沒有發現張小惠的異常，但他們被張小惠捏住了把柄，不敢上報。而且，即使到了今天，李志國依然選擇了張小惠，帶她逃跑了。這已經嚴重違背了他軍人的使命，和投敵沒有什麽區別了。
林樾沒有把這些事說出來，只是問：“那李志國呢，被抓回來了嗎？”
陶來香把身子縮回去，和王婷婷對視一眼，搖搖頭。這就不是她們能知道的事情了。
但這并沒有影響她的好心情，接着道：“李指導員的事情我是不清楚，但我知道一點，你們兩口子這次這麽大的功勞，張團指不定就要升上一升了，到時候呀，少不得也有你的獎章發下來，我在這裏先恭喜啦！”
林樾就猜到陶來香惦記着這個呢，這人才剛抓起來，她就想到論功行賞的事情上去了。
不過抓敵特這種事情的确是件大事，普通人可能一輩子都不一定有機會參與。林樾和張小惠之間和她可不一樣，她們還有私怨在裏頭，不然林樾也是沒有機會參與到這件事裏面的。
她想通這些，主動給陶來香吃了個定心丸：“我這也沒做什麽，倒是還得多虧了嫂子，上次的事情，遠東已經如實報上去了，到時候論功行賞肯定少不了你的功勞！”
聽到她想要的答複，陶來香心裏的大石頭總算落了下來。她前段時間也經常和林樾湊在一塊，但礙于紀律，她一直都憋着沒問，現在事情鬧得人盡皆知的，她才終于憋不住拿話來試探了一下。
她笑得牙花子都露了出來，一疊聲道：“嗨，這都是應該的，我也不求別的，表彰大會上，首長能念一念我的名字就行了！”
林樾不由得佩服起陶來香了，這人才剛抓住，她已經想到表彰大會的事情上去了。不過林樾覺得，她可能要失望了。上一次張遠東他們捅破了敵特那麽大一個窩點，林樾都沒有聽說過什麽表彰大會，這次只不過是抓住了上次的漏網之魚，哪可能辦什麽表彰大會！
陶來香還沉浸在自己的興奮中，喋喋不休的對王婷婷重複上一次她是怎麽帶張小惠出營區的，還想打聽林樾今天的經歷，就聽門外傳來響動，是張遠東回來了，他的身後還跟着五個大小不一的孩子。
陶來香雖然興奮，但她不是沒有眼力見兒，見張遠東手裏提着一串飯盒，就知道他們這是要開飯了。她趕緊起身告辭，臨走前還意猶未盡的道：“你好好休息，我明天再來看你！”
意料之外的，王婷婷沒有多問些什麽，她帶着小西西快速的吃完飯，就打算先回去，把空間留t給他們一家子。
她臨走前問：“你們今晚上肯定有不少事，我先走了，明天再來。這幾個孩子需不需要我一起帶走？”
林樾的确是有很多話想問張遠東，她擡頭往張遠東看去，張遠東接收到了視線，搖頭道：“不用那麽麻煩，讓他們留下吧。”
王婷婷點頭，帶着小西西走了。
她這段時間收到過幾次京城的來信，林樾眼見着她一次比一次消沉，想要和她談談，可王婷婷死犟着不肯和她說。
林樾擔憂的望着這一大一小兩個背影，心裏把顧青平罵了個狗血噴頭。
一頓飯吃完，淩淩和萬裏搶着把桌子收拾幹淨，又眼巴巴的跑回林樾身邊，眼神熱切的望着林樾，那眼神，活像是見到了活的孫大聖。
林樾把老虎收進空間的那件事萬裏是知情的，她本想好好和他談一談的。她睡覺之前兩個孩子還不是這個樣子，現在卻變成了這樣，只能說明這段時間有人和他們說了什麽，
林樾僵硬的回頭，無聲的質問張遠東，他到底都和孩子們說了什麽，張遠東呲牙，不大好意思的扭過頭，不和林樾對視。
見林樾還想再說些什麽，張遠東趕緊道：“你們先都回屋，我和你們娘有話要說。”
天色還早，孩子們都剛吃完飯，這會根本就睡不着覺，但是爹的話他們又不敢不聽，只能不情不願的回了屋。
但是兩人的談話最終還是沒有說成。孩子們剛走，營區裏就響起了急促的集合哨聲。
張遠東不敢怠慢，只丢下一句話就匆匆跑了。
大半夜的吹集合哨，肯定是有什麽重要的事情，林樾心裏擔憂，想到張遠東為了安她的心，這時候還要急匆匆的和她說一聲人都抓到了，心裏就又擔憂又心疼。
四個孩子也都聽到了哨聲，全都又從屋裏鑽了出來，好奇的跑到外頭張望。
他們從小生活在軍營裏，林樾知道他們有分寸，沒有太管他們。以前不是沒有過緊急軍令，但是這一次，林樾感覺格外的慌亂，她在家裏來回的踱着步，時不時往外頭望上一眼。
張遠東沒去多久，很快就回來了。林樾看到他的表情，心裏更沉重了。她見張遠東自己找出旅行包，默不作聲的上前，幫他整理起了行李。
張遠東從身後抱住她，把頭埋在她的肩窩裏，悶悶道：“你別擔心，這次只是正常的兵力調動，年前我肯定就會回來的。”
林樾搖頭，不發一言的往他的行李裏又多塞了一包糖豆。
張遠東的承諾最終還是沒有實現。東部防線形勢一直很嚴峻，他帶領着隊伍過去支援，一走就是好幾個月。剛過完年，花國和鄰國就打起了自衛反擊戰。
第二年，有京城來的重要首長訪問了另一個鄰國，回國途中，首長探訪慰問了常年駐紮在邊境上的士兵們，一路向西北方向，耗時将近兩個月，才走完了北部這綿長的邊境線。
正值初春，黑市的河面還沒有解凍，地上還殘留存着上一個季節留下的髒髒的積雪，但是在河邊林間，已經有嫩綠的小草不畏寒冷的悄悄冒出了綠芽，它們躲在沒人注意的角落，只待一場溫柔的春風，就可以迸發出盎然的生機。
In order to welcome the arrival of the chief, the military area was cleaned inside and outside. On the main roads, the wives of the soldiers spontaneously organized and placed all kinds of flowers. The potted plants that were usually kept in the warm room shivered in the chilly spring breeze. They were of different types and looked messy, but they represented the sincerity of the wives of the soldiers. No officer dared to say no.
The chief arrived much earlier than expected. After hearing that the flowers on the roadside were gifts from the wives of soldiers, he happily took photos along the road as a souvenir.
After finishing the meetings, the chief took some time to visit a few randomly selected families.
Because the leader came to inspect, the group of naughty monkeys in the family yard became much more obedient, and there were almost no people on the road. But in places where the leader could not see, behind the gates of every household, there were a few pairs of curious eyes, closely watching everything happening on the street.
Not long after, the news that the leader really came to the family compound and took Aunt Hua with him, repeatedly reminding her to take care of her health spread throughout the family compound.
New military families have already moved into the newly built family compound, many of them are newly married young couples, including young wives under the age of 20. When they really met the leader, they were so excited that they couldn't even speak coherently, their faces turned red, but they were still grinning without realizing it.
The sisters-in-law who were hiding in their own yards and peeking were so jealous that their eyes turned red. The melon seeds in their hands no longer tasted delicious, and the new clothes they had specially changed for were no longer pleasing to the eye.
Lin Yue felt more emotional than the others. She really had never thought that one day she would meet this person who only existed in history textbooks. You can imagine how excited she was.
The chief asked the guards to wait in the yard, and he talked to Lin Yue alone for a long time. When he opened the door and came out, his expression was gentle, and even his steps were a little lighter.
Several children gathered around the leader, looking at him curiously. The leader smiled, touched their heads, and asked, "How old are you? Do you go to school?"
"My name is Wanli, this is my sister, we are both eleven years old this year, and these two are my brother and sister, they are six years old!"
Ling Ling straightened her back and continued, "Grandpa Commander, I want to be a pilot when I grow up! But my classmates all make fun of me, saying that there are no women who can be pilots. Is that true, Grandpa Commander?"
The chief laughed and said, "Of course not! Regardless of the industry, the selection for a job is based on ability, not gender! We also have some very good pilots in our country. I believe you can make it!"
Lingling's face flushed with excitement and her hands were clenched into fists.
Little Mushroom hugged the chief's legs and said loudly, "Grandpa Chief, when I grow up I want to be a tiger owner. Is that okay?"
The chief laughed, "Yes, of course!"
Lin Yue and the children escorted the person to the door and asked about the leader's health. The leader smiled and patted the pocket of his Zhongshan suit, saying, "Don't worry, I will take care of myself. I believe we will see each other again in the near future."
Lin Yue waved her hands vigorously. She also believed that there would be a chance to meet again in the future, and that day would not be too far away.
