Dong Wenxin is a man of few words. As the saying goes, heroes appreciate heroes, and he admires Lin Dachuan very much.
Seeing how polite he was to her, Dong Wenxin said sincerely, "You only take a vacation once every three years, so go back without worry."
"This is a small gift from us. Please buy some incense, candles, and paper money to burn for Auntie. I hope you won't refuse."
Lin Dachuan was not at home when Aunt Lin died.
This time everyone knew that he was going back to hold an anniversary memorial service. Since ancient times, it has been difficult for soldiers to be both loyal and filial.
My dear mother has passed away, and I have to go home to see where she is buried.
The money is not much or too little, just ten yuan per person.
Lin Dachuan felt embarrassed to refuse it.
He stammered, then reached out and patted Dong Wenxin on the shoulder: "Then I'll thank you brothers on behalf of my mother."
"You're welcome."
Dong Wenxin shook Lin Dachuan's hand vigorously: "Have a safe trip."
"Thanks."
After explaining the work of the training team, Lin Dachuan returned to the camp and found Liu Dajiang waiting for him in his dormitory.
"It's so late, why don't you go to bed?"
Liu Dajiang handed over the white paper bag in his hand: "Here, this twenty yuan is my gift."
Lin Dachuan took the white bag and hugged Liu Dajiang tightly.
"Thank you! My mother will definitely be happy to receive your paper money."
It’s good to be home.
Liu Dajiang hugged Lin Dachuan back and said, "Go early and come back early. I wish you a safe journey."
Having not been home for three years, Lin Dachuan really wanted to go back.
"Thank you. Please try to come back next year."
Liu Dajiang was originally a cadre whose family accompanied the army, so his only vacation time was once every four years to visit his parents.
Now he...can he take a leave next year...
"I'm afraid it's difficult. Let's talk about it later. Anyway, my parents are not that old, and I have many brothers."
"I'll send more money back home after the New Year."
Lin Dachuan naturally knew his brother's situation—it was indeed difficult for him to get leave...
"There will always be opportunities."
Maybe?
Liu Dajiang never dreamed that the opportunity would come so soon... Tomorrow afternoon, he would receive an urgent telegram from home.
At this moment, neither Lin Dachuan nor he could predict the future.
The train is at nine tomorrow morning.
The next day, Luo Yunqing got up early.
But there was someone who came earlier than her, and that was Wang Ruhua.
"I'll make you some pickled mustard greens pancakes to take with you. The food on the train isn't tasty, it's also very expensive."
"If you can't eat that meal, eat this."
The sisters are good at making pancakes, so Luo Yunqing is not polite.
I went to the gate of the staff quarters to pick up the milk I had ordered and made myself a cup of milk tea.
At half past seven, Lin Dachuan came back.
Seeing Luo Yunqing's new outfit, he was stunned for a long time before he regained his voice...
"Qingqing, can we go now? Xiao Jiang has arrived in the political commissar's car."
When Aunt Chen heard that Luo Yunqing was going back to her hometown, she insisted that her son send a car to take her to the train station.
It used to take an hour and a half to get to the train station by bus, but now it only takes fifty minutes with a car.
"alright."
Luo Yunqing walked out with her bag. She was really different today.
I wore a new cotton-padded jacket that I made myself.
My hometown is much colder than here, and a thin coat can't keep out the cold.
The fabric is polyester, crimson in color with some dark patterns, and underneath is a high-necked white sweater.
The pants are black corduroy straight pants, the fabric is thick and warm.
The shoes were also black leather cotton shoes, with medium heels, neither too big nor too small, and about an inch thick.
Although she has gained more than ten pounds, Luo Yunqing, who weighs less than 100 pounds, looks graceful and elegant in this outfit.
Her skin is good now. She doesn’t put anything on her face except some persimmon leaf paste.
Her skin, originally white with a rosy glow, looked like a freshly peeled egg.
The lips, because of their good complexion, looked even more plump after applying some lipstick.
However, she didn't seem to notice Lin Dachuan's gaze and walked out the door with her things.
It was not until Luo Yunqing went out of the yard that Lin Dachuan came to his senses with his heart pounding wildly.
He suppressed his heart that was about to jump out of his chest, chased after her stupidly, reached out to take Luo Yunqing's bag, and looked at her with dull eyes.
"Qingqing, your dress is so beautiful, where did you buy it?"
Praising is involuntary.
Luo Yunqing knew that her outfit today would attract attention.
Because she wants to go back to her hometown.
She came here to become a daughter-in-law, but in the blink of an eye she became a sister returning home.
If she doesn't let others see her excellence, she will be drowned in the saliva of the gossips of the rural women.
Hearing this, she smiled faintly: "It looks good, doesn't it? Sister Hua and I made it together. She is very skillful."
"The fabric was obtained with the help of Aunt Zhou's daughter-in-law. It's the best kind from their factory."
Wang Ruhua’s hands...are so skillful!
[Also, when 'Sister' wears this, even the mainstay of the cultural troupe can't compare to her...]
Thinking about how he had judged people by their appearance, Lin Dachuan didn't know what to say.
But, I have to find something to say...
"These leather shoes are also very beautiful."
Lin Dachuan looked from top to bottom, and finally, his eyes fixed on Luo Yunqing's feet...
"When she heard that I was going back to my hometown, she specially asked someone to bring it here from Beijing."
"Sister Hua and I each have a pair. These are handmade cowhide shoes with excellent workmanship and quality. They are not afraid of rain or snow."
My sister is really capable, and the friends she makes are all capable people...
You can’t buy these things even if you have a ticket.
Lin Dachuan was in a very complicated mood. He pursed his lips and said, "They help you because you are nice to them."
"If you want to make new clothes in the future, just tell me and I'll ask someone to get some cloth coupons."
