Chapter 165 Three Sisters-in-law Go to S City
The three of them followed Dong Dayong out of the door, and their pace unconsciously quickened.
Along the way, sisters-in-law greeted them, but Xiuhong and Xiaoli were not in the mood to respond and just nodded.
They had already sensed something was amiss, as they were the only three who had families with them on the Eagle Claw mission this time.
Although he was unwilling to think about it, the chief's bodyguard Dong Dayong looked as if his father had died. How could anything good happen?
Soon the three of them arrived at the chief's office. Except for Lin Qingqing who was familiar with the place, Xiuhong and Xiaoli were there for the first time.
There was a thin layer of sweat on their foreheads and their faces looked a little pale.
I don't know if he was nervous about seeing the leader, or if he was afraid of what he would say later.
"Knock knock knock~" Dong Dayong knocked on the door.
He knew that this was different from Lin Qingqing coming alone, and he couldn't just push the door open and come in.
"Come in." The chief's majestic voice came from inside the door.
Dong Dayong pushed the door and let his three sisters-in-law in.
The three of them filed in and saw four leaders sitting in the chief's office, all of whom were senior leaders of the military region, the chief, the political commissar, the chief of staff, and the director of the political department.
"Please sit down." The chief pointed to three prepared chairs.
After the three of them sat down, the chief began to get to the point: "Sisters-in-law, let me make it short. Team Leader Song, Zhang Liang, and Li Aiguo encountered an accident during their mission this time. They are now being treated in S City. Their conditions are critical. The troops will send you to S City to meet them."
The chief explained the situation briefly with a serious face.
After hearing this, the two sisters-in-law, Xiuhong and Xiaoli, felt their bodies go limp and tears rolled down their cheeks and chins.
Lin Qingqing seemed much calmer.
She held Xiuhong's hand and said softly, "She's still receiving treatment. Now is not the time to be sad."
The political commissar said, "Yes, we're letting you go just in case. The army has already sent a doctor from Kyoto. Go back and pack up. We'll be leaving in half an hour."
Zhang Xiaoli covered her mouth and tried hard not to cry out. Xiuhong held Zhang Xiaoli's arm tightly on the left and pulled Lin Qingqing on the right.
She seemed to be the pillar of support for the two of them, and her back straightened again.
They realized this on the first day they became military dependents.
It is glorious to contribute to the country and to be a good man of China, they should not let down their own men.
Xiuhong let the tears flow down her face.
"We'll go back now."
After saying that, he pulled Lin Qingqing and Zhang Xiaoli to stand up and went back to the military compound to pack their things.
She is the oldest of the three, so of course she has to be in the front if something happens.
The three of them hurried back to the military compound, said goodbye at the gate, and went home to pack up.
Some sisters-in-law saw Zhang Xiaoli and Xiuhong crying like water and they lowered their heads and dared not ask any questions. Recently, their husbands had gone out on missions, and it would definitely not be a good thing if they were found by the army.
They are also military wives and can empathize with this feeling.
Lin Qingqing returned to the yard. Li Xiuzhen, Chen Qiuchan and Honghua were still waiting in the yard. Seeing that she came back alone, they anxiously asked about Xiuhong and Xiaoli.
"Someone on the mission had an accident. We need to go to S City and leave in half an hour."
