"Hey, Yuling, there's a letter for you in the mailroom. Did you pick it up?" Yang Huihui reminded her.
Because there was an incident in the past where a letter and the money inside were lost, students are no longer allowed to pick up letters and parcels on behalf of others and must go in person.
Qiu Yuling put her things down and ran out to get the letter.
When I arrived, I found my own letters from the pile of letters, two in total.
The postmarks are all from New Province.
She didn't wait to go back and look at it, but tore it from the other end, being careful not to damage the stamp.
The first thing to look at is the one where the sender is unknown, and then you can send it.
When I opened the letter, there were only four simple words inside: "Be safe, don't worry!" The signature was He.
She looked at the envelope carefully again. It turned out that it was not Tai Sanke, but Dahe. It was obviously written by someone else. The character Qiu might be too difficult, so it was omitted.
But the recipient's name was neatly written, but Qiu Yuling also knew that it was sent by her second brother. Now she was even more worried.
Why did he even ask someone else to write the letter? Did he hurt his hand? Or was he injured somewhere else? I was in a state of panic for a moment.
The other letter was from Wang Xiaotao. It contained a photo of her wearing military uniform, with tomboyish hair in pigtails. If her expression was more natural, she would have looked so cool.
There was a lot of writing in the letter, but the only sentence that congratulated them and said that Brother Daha was about to get married made her frown slightly.
Her mind was out of control and she made up a big drama.
What does it mean to be on the verge of good things? She hadn't heard from her second brother for most of the year, and the letter she was holding was the first reply she had received so far.
Another reason is that based on her understanding of her second brother, firstly, he would not be in a hurry to get married at this time, and secondly, good things are about to happen, so he will not fail to inform his parents and relatives first, unless there are force majeure factors.
However, because of these words, her heart, which had just been tense, felt a little relieved. At least it meant that the person was safe and sound. He would not be sent back with missing limbs, nor would he be injured in the brain and unable to wake up.
I guess he's having some inconvenience right now, but at least he has some news.
She never thought that there were thousands of good things in the world, not just getting married, and she just thought so out of reflex.
Qiu Yuling thought about it, quickened her pace and returned to the dormitory, preparing to reply a letter and bring some supplies.
With San Ke doing the doggy paddling, it was always true that she couldn't start writing for the time being. Based on her understanding of her second brother, the "peace and blessings be upon him" must have been prepared long ago, and would be presented regardless of whether it was true or false.
I can't help with anything else, but I can still provide some bone strengthening powder, body strengthening powder, etc.
She hadn't guessed wrong. Qiu Dahe was recovering from injuries ranging from his shoulder to his ankle. His arm was broken and in a plaster cast, and his leg was in a sling.
His comrades were teasing him and were almost wrapping his head.
He was carrying out a top-secret mission this time. Our country has gone through this protracted and oppressive war, and its military strength has not regressed a bit.
The country was actively researching nuclear weapons, and this year was the year when China's first atomic bomb was successfully detonated.
Since then, we have become the fifth country in the world to possess nuclear weapons!
He was fortunate enough to be involved in escorting this confidential document, but the ambush he suffered was more serious than expected, but fortunately he did not fail his mission.
What Qiu Yuling sent this time was not malted milk, but the fried noodles that Qiu's mother had mentioned she made for her brothers and sisters when they were young.
It contains crushed peanuts, red date crumbs and other things. Mother Qiu said that they and their brothers and sisters loved to eat it when they were young.
She just didn't believe it. After sending this, her second brother shared it with his comrades. He must have been eager to lick off the crumbs that fell.
The girls in the dormitory have been making slow progress recently, so she could only order a set of sweaters and trousers from the system.
The simplest stitches, without any patterns, just blue from top to bottom, I think it should be to his liking.
After finishing all these, the school started to arrange the New Year's Day performance. This was the first time Qiu Yuling had encountered such a large-scale event since she came here.
Oh, that’s not right. There was also the work-study program we had before, in which the whole school participated.
The girls in Class 201 were all eager to try, but Qiu Yuling seemed to be lacking in interest this time.
She has never been the kind of person who likes to be in the spotlight. She joined the school gymnastics team and became the school announcer, all for the purpose of choosing a better career path in the future.
She remembered that although the movement was suspended for a while from the class of 1966, the assignment was resumed later with the participation of classmate Gu from the Water Conservancy Department of a university in Beijing. However, the assignments were not as well matched as those in previous classes, and they all went to the countryside for reform before returning to their jobs.
She thought that although it was possible to endure those hardships, when the time came, the various teams and farms would always have to assign people to jobs that were less strenuous.
I can show off my resume when the time comes.
For example, I can be a broadcaster, or do the math for the team, or teach the kids.
Qiu Yuling only said that a few letters from home had affected her mood and she was not in the mood to participate, so she just participated in a standard chorus of red songs.
She did not sign up for other personal projects, nor did she pay much attention to others'.
She didn't even pay attention to what program they finally decided on or how they rehearsed.
However, on New Year's Day, Qiu Yuling, who had just finished her chorus performance and was about to be a qualified audience member, was stopped by a classmate. "Qiu Yuling, the receptionist is calling you over. They said a soldier is coming over and he says he's your brother..."
Qiu Yuling shouted thank you before she finished listening and trotted towards the message room.
"Second brother! Why are you here?"
"I'm home to visit my family, so I came to see you first."
"did you eat?"
"No."
Qiu Yuling asked for leave from the instructor, pushed the bicycle that Mr. Li had given her, and after going out the gate, she asked Qiu Dahe to ride it, and she jumped onto the back seat with a running start.
Qiu Dahe had just said that she hadn't eaten, but it wasn't lunchtime at school, so she planned to go out with her second brother to eat at a state-owned restaurant.
By the way, the two of them chatted on the way.
"Brother, how is your injury?"
"How did you know I was injured?"
Qiu Yuling proudly recounted her previous speculations and analysis, "Isn't it obvious?"
Qiu Dahe laughed. He knew that he couldn't hide it from his little sister, so despite his illness, he didn't even send a letter to Qiu Zhuang. He first sent a letter to his little sister to express his safety. Unexpectedly, she caught him red-handed with that little clue.
"I'm all better now. The doctor said I'm young and will recover quickly. Now I can run and jump, and there's nothing wrong with me at all."
Qiu Yuling calculated the time and figured it would take a hundred days for a broken bone to heal. Unless it was a serious problem, there shouldn't be any serious problems.
But I still asked him to stop halfway and let me lead him instead.
Qiu Dahe refused to agree. She said that she had grown a lot in height and weight in the past few years, and it was impossible for a little girl like her to carry him around.
But no matter who the opponent is, if the girl really exerts her strength, the three brothers will never be able to win.
