Chapter 553 Maybe he will be one of them too!

Xia Qingxi looked at Su Man, and at this moment she suddenly felt that she had grown up a lot.

After learning about the deaths of Su Xiangnan and Liu Xiaofeng, she showed unexpected calmness.

Unlike other little girls, she did not complain about the world or burst into tears, but comforted others.

In fact, this is not surprising. After all, she is the daughter of the Su family. She grew up under the education of her father and the influence of her brothers. She was influenced by their words and deeds, and the words of loving the country, defending the country, and sacrificing... are engraved in her bones.

She was carefree before because she had her family to protect her. Now that her two brothers and the person she loved have passed away one after another, she has begun to learn to take care of her mother and the people around her.

Maybe people really grow up in a certain moment, but the price is too high!

Thinking of the original book, Su Man's ending was to follow her father and brother to guard the border and never get married. Xia Qingying hesitated for a moment and decided to enlighten her. Xia

Qingying looked at Su Man and said to her very seriously:

"Maybe Xiaofeng didn't want you to be so concerned about him and hoped that you would be happy in the future, so he didn't leave a message for you."

Su Man is different from Luo Ya. Luo Ya loves Su Xiangnan deeply and has no room for others in her heart. Besides, she has two children.

If she keeps the memories between them like this and goes through life, although people will feel sorry for her, they will be more moved by this unswerving love.

However, Su Man and Liu Xiaofeng have never expressed their feelings. Although the love in their youth is beautiful and pure, if they have to wait for a lifetime of happiness and give up the possibility of finding other happiness, the price may be too high.

Su Man understands what Xia Qingqing means. She wants her not to indulge in her feelings for Liu Xiaofeng and delay her future life.

Su Man smiled somewhat bitterly, and said truthfully:

"He didn't leave me a message because he is very stupid and never realized that I like him."

After that, she continued as if mocking herself:

"Actually, I don't understand why I would fall in love with such a fool who knows nothing and is always making trouble."

Xia Qingying was about to speak when Su Man suddenly laughed, took her hand and said:

"Haha, if I want to date someone in the future, I must find someone smarter."

Xia Qingying didn't know whether Su Man's words were meant to comfort herself or to fool herself, but she was already an adult and had her own thoughts. Even if she wanted to enlighten her, she should know how to be measured and not say too much.

"Fourth sister-in-law, I'm going to the hospital to see third sister-in-law first, and then I'll leave." Su Man said as she let go of Xia Qingxi, waved to her, and turned away.

In the rain, Xia Qingxi did not go up to disturb Lu Jingchen, but just stood there silently holding a black umbrella, waiting for him.

Lu Jingchen stood upright in front of the newly added tombstone. Looking around, this forest was full of tombstones of martyrs.

Under each tombstone lies a fresh, young life.

When they were alive, they guarded the territory of the motherland, and after their sacrifice, they were buried here, continuing to protect the mountains and rivers of the motherland.

Perhaps one day, Lu Jingchen will become one of them.

I don't know how long he stood there. Raindrops were dripping down the edge of Lu Jingchen's military cap. He took a deep look at Su Xiangnan's tombstone and said in a hoarse voice:

"Take a good rest first. Leave the rest to me!" After that, he was about to turn around and leave, but he seemed to have thought of something and continued:

"The white chrysanthemums you like haven't bloomed yet. I'll pick them for you in autumn!"

After that, Lu Jingchen didn't stop and turned to walk forward.

The fine spring rain fell on the brand new tombstone. In the photo on the tombstone, Su Xiangnan was smiling heartlessly as usual.

And next to his tombstone, there was a new tombstone, but there was no word written on it.

When Lu Jingchen turned around, she saw a man in the distance, holding a black umbrella. He walked straight towards her. When he got closer, he lifted the black umbrella up, and then a voice rang out:

"Lu Jingchen, let's go home."

The voice was just as gentle as when she said "I'll take you home" last year.

Lu Jingchen responded softly, then took the umbrella from Xia Qingxiang's hand, and the two walked forward side by side.

7 months later........

Since Tuantuan was born, Lu Baichuan had no time to come to the army to see his grandson because of work reasons. He

had originally planned to come during the summer vacation, but because he received a temporary business trip, he was delayed again. In a blink of an eye, the child was more than ten months old.

During this period, Lu Xiaoxue was very dissatisfied and kept complaining about why her father said he would go but then changed his mind.

Ever since she knew Qingcao was also going to the army, she couldn't wait to come.

Recently, Lu Baichuan finally asked for leave from the army and brought Lu Xiaoxue to the army.

On the day when Lu Baichuan and Lu Xiaoxue came, Lu Jingchen drove to pick them up.

When he picked him up, Lu Jingchen found that Lu Baichuan looked much better than before, but Lu Xiaoxue didn't change much, she was still fat, just a little taller.

After getting off the train, Lu Xiaoxue looked around when she saw her brother. She saw that he had brought a guard with him. She couldn't help asking,

"Where is Brother Qingcao? Doesn't he know I'm here today? Why didn't he come to pick me up?"

Lu Jingchen was a little surprised. She didn't know why her sister, who only cared about food, cared so much about Qingcao.

"He has to train and can't come." Lu Jingchen answered while taking Lu Baichuan's luggage.

"Can't you give him half a day off?" Lu Xiaoxue pouted after hearing this, obviously very dissatisfied.

Xiang Qianjin took the luggage from Lu Jingchen's hand with a tactful look, and then said,

"Lu Tuan, you guys come over slowly. I'll go drive the car first."

After getting Lu Jingchen's consent, he trotted forward.

"He is a soldier now, how can he just ask for leave?" Lu Baichuan saw that Lu Xiaoxue looked unhappy, so he explained to her.

"Then why can my brother ask for leave?" Lu Xiaoxue asked back immediately.

"Isn't your brother coming to pick us up?" Lu Baichuan continued. He was always more patient with this daughter than with others.

"Then he doesn't have to come. Ask Brother Qingcao to come." Lu Xiaoxue blurted out without thinking, completely forgetting who her real brother is.
