Six months later.
Six months have passed since the South China Sea collision incident. Initially, television broadcast daily reports on the flight patrols, protests in various places, the attitudes of the country, and the attitudes of other countries.
About a month later, when the South China Sea was mentioned again in the news, it was only mentioned briefly, and eventually it was not mentioned at all.
If Zhou Yue hadn't been waiting for her to return, Liang Guiying, like everyone else, would have thought the matter was over.
Spring has arrived, and Liang Guiying has turned over the open space in front of her courtyard and sown vegetable seeds again.
She also planted a circle of flowers around the courtyard, which will bloom in the summer.
Liang Yuelan said she really knows how to live.
Liang Guiying smiled bitterly: "What else can we do? Life goes on. I still have Niannian to live."
Liang Yuelan's son is an ordnance engineer. He doesn't need to patrol, but he is responsible for the pre-takeoff and post-landing inspections of the fighter jets. He also left with Zhou Yue and the others.
Many people in the camp left one after another, and some came back and left again. In short, the atmosphere in the camp was very tense. Liang Guiying heard the young wife hiding outside and crying secretly, avoiding the crowd, more than once.
—If they have children at home, or perhaps elders, they have nowhere to vent their emotions unless they go outside to cry.
Liang Yuelan asked her, "Have you considered the worst-case scenario?"
“Yes,” Liang Guiying said. “If the worst-case scenario is in mind, I can only take Niannian back to Jiangcheng.”
It's been so long, and she still hasn't returned. Liang Yuelan didn't know how to comfort her, so she just sighed.
The two sat in silence in front of the courtyard for a long time when suddenly a car drove up in their direction.
Although it wasn't a military vehicle, Liang Guiying still stood up with a glimmer of hope.
The car stopped, and two middle-aged men jumped out. When Liang Guiying recognized them, she couldn't help but tremble.
These two are Zhou Yue's eldest uncle and Zhou Yue's third uncle!
Since Mrs. Zhou fell ill last year, the Zhou family has not appeared again. Their sudden reappearance after such a long time must mean something big has happened.
"Zhou Yue, is she—"
“Zhou Yue is fine,” said Zhou Yue’s uncle, Zhou Hu’an. “She went back to her original training base. We came to pick you and Niannian up to go together.”
Zhou Yu'an's expression was also gentle: "The matter that everyone is concerned about has been resolved. Although it is not entirely satisfactory, it is the best result we could achieve at the moment. All of this was won by Zhou Yue and her comrades who risked their lives."
Liang Guiying couldn't hear anything else the Zhou brothers said; she only had one thought in her mind: Zhou Yue was alright.
Zhou Yue is alright; that's more important than anything else.
Liang Guiying started tidying up, and by the time Zhou Xiaonian got out of school, she had almost finished.
After careful calculation, it turned out that the grandmother and granddaughter had actually stayed in the Northwest for two years, and the things they bought almost filled the entire courtyard. Many of them were large pieces of furniture and appliances, such as a new bed, refrigerator, and television.
She wanted to take all of these with her.
But Zhou Hu'an said that there was everything there, and there was no place to put the items if they were moved there.
Liang Guiying then gave the newly bought bed to Liang Yuelan, along with a rice cooker and a kettle.
"Yuelan, tomorrow you can have someone move this refrigerator and television to the freezer. Also, move out the tables and chairs that you need, and have someone else take out the ones you don't need. But be careful not to damage the house, or it will affect the next occupant's living situation."
