"Let's hurry up and go, in case the girl has rested, we shouldn't disturb her any longer."
The two quickly tidied themselves up, got up, opened the door, put on their clothes, and hurriedly went out.
By this time, Ma Yingchun's belly was quite large. Wei Deyao supported her, seemingly wanting to say something but then stopping himself.
Ma Yingchun knocked on the door next door.
"Hey girl, are you resting yet?"
Su Miaoyan was standing in the middle of the courtyard in a daze when she heard Ma Yingchun's voice. She quickly went over and opened the door.
As soon as he pushed the door open, he saw Ma Yingchun and Wei Deyao standing in front of him.
Upon seeing Su Miaoyan, Ma Yingchun exclaimed, "Oh my, sister, it's been a long time!"
Su Miaoyan was taken aback for a moment, then teased, "Sister-in-law, it's only seven days."
Ma Yingchun scratched her head: "You're right. By the way, sister, has Chief Lu already left?"
Su Miaoyan gave a soft "Mmm," and said, "I'll be leaving in another two weeks."
Ma Yingchun felt a stinging sensation in her eyes.
I remember when this young woman first arrived, she was unfamiliar with the place and looked down on her.
Unexpectedly, the other party was not only a good cook, but also delivered food to her. Moreover, she was a hero who had saved someone on the train and was being honored!
Later, he joined the research institute based on his own abilities. I still vividly remember the scene of planting trees together.
With red eyes, she said, "Okay, it's good that you're leaving. Yanjing is a good place, sister. You must take good care of yourself there."
Su Miaoyan wiped her eyes. "Sister-in-law, I will. I will definitely come back when I have time."
"Um!"
Wei Deyao stood by without saying a word, simply supporting Ma Yingchun.
Ma Yingchun gave a look that was hard to tell whether to laugh or cry. "Chief Lu isn't here, so if you need anything, just tell us in the meantime. We'll back you up."
Although she knew that the other party was no longer the capitalist's daughter who had just arrived at the military region and was looked down upon, Ma Yingchun still wanted to say it.
Because no matter what, Su Miaoyan is still just a young woman in her early twenties.
They are a type that needs to be protected.
Su Miaoyan swallowed back the words "Who dares to bully me?" that were about to come out of her mouth, and instead said "Okay".
Ma Yingchun nodded. "Little sister, then I won't disturb your rest any longer. You should go to sleep; you must be tired after these seven days."
Su Miaoyan nodded emphatically: "Okay, sister-in-law, it's not easy for you to be carrying such a big belly. Let Battalion Commander Wei help you lie down."
"Okay."
Ma Yingchun slowly turned around, and the two figures disappeared into the night once again.
A few minutes later, Su Miaoyan closed the door.
"Squeak—"
Su Miaoyan went to see the beehive and the flowers and plants she had tended for so many days. The reluctance in her heart seemed to overwhelm her.
The bees, which had been resting, seemed to sense her arrival and emerged from the hive, buzzing around her.
"We're moving to a different place in a few days."
The bees seemed to understand her meaning, and they all perched on her arm, as if to say, "Wherever you go, we will go."
Su Miaoyan said, "It's so late, you should go back to sleep first, there's still some time."
The bees hesitated for a while before finally returning to the hive.
Su Miaoyan pushed open the door and went into the house. Because she found it troublesome, she went straight into the space to take a shower. That night, she even slept in the space.
The next day, Gu Shanqing knew that Su Miaoyan had returned, so she got up very early to find her.
Having just finished a field trip, the research institute gave them a day off. Upon hearing the noise, Su Miaoyan immediately pushed open the door.
As a result, Gu Shanqing gave him a big hug.
Gu Shanqing looked left and right, then asked, "Lu Ting has really been transferred?"
When Su Miaoyan saw Gu Shanqing, she smiled and said, "Yes."
Gu Shanqing pouted, "I never thought that after finally making a friend, she would leave. Sigh, I'm so pathetic."
Su Miaoyan was amused by her words.
"Our Miss Gu, what kind of friends can't she make? What, you want to be friends with me?"
Gu Shanqing got angry: "Hey, Su Miaoyan, I'm not saying this to criticize you, but I wanted to be friends with you. You were quite willing before, so what do you mean by saying this now? Do you believe I won't be friends with you anymore?"
Su Miaoyan then said, "Alright, alright, I was just joking. I'm leaving in half a month. You must take good care of yourself while you're in the military region."
Gu Shanqing sighed, and the anger on her face completely disappeared.
She whispered, "Okay, I'll take good care of myself, but could you come back to visit more often?"
Su Miaoyan didn't hear clearly: "Shan Qing, what did you just say?"
Gu Shanqing stammered, "No, it's nothing."
"Then you can help me water the flowers."
A watering can was suddenly handed to Gu Shanqing, leaving her somewhat bewildered.
After realizing what was happening, she stomped her foot and said, "You're leaving soon, why do you still need to water these flowers? Once you're gone, no one will take care of them."
Su Miaoyan smiled and glanced at her: "Can't you help me take care of it?"
That sounds like...
That makes a lot of sense.
Su Miaoyan walked to the chair and sat down: "I don't care, I'm leaving. The fruits and vegetables in the backyard, as well as the flowers and plants in the front, are all yours. If you really can't manage, you can give them to someone else."
These were all grown with spiritual spring water; it would be such a waste to throw them away.
Gu Shanqing said, "You might as well dig it up and let me take care of it, or let someone else take care of it. You wouldn't even know when it died."
Yes, dig it up.
She has space.
Su Miaoyan nodded, "That's right, I think what you said makes sense, then I'll just take it."
Gu Shanqing asked, "How are you planning to dig this up? There's so much of it. Do you want me to call someone to help you?"
Su Miaoyan shook her head: "No need, I can do it myself. When the time comes... I'll find a special passage and have someone help transport it over."
Gu Shanqing gave her a thumbs up, "You're really resourceful. But it's good this way, after all, it's all your hard work."
The two sat down and chatted for a long time, while on the other side, Lu Ting had already taken care of everything and was just waiting for his wife to arrive.
On the day they left, the research institute and Tong Mengyun, Gu Shanqing, and the others all cried uncontrollably.
Xiao Xu, in particular, cried her eyes out.
Although they spent little time together, their bond was the strongest in the research institute.
Professor Xue, Yan Huaili, and others watched as the two boarded the train.
The two sat in hard seats, their hands stuffed with things, watching helplessly as the faces of their former friends and colleagues, one by one, became tiny black dots in their vision, slowly fading into the distance.
at last……
They disappeared forever.
The image of them waving at him was etched into his mind, impossible to forget.
Only after she was absolutely certain that she couldn't see anymore did Su Miaoyan straighten up.
The sesame seed cake in his arms was still warm.
