The rain got heavier at night and the cold air invaded.
If it weren't for Shen Congji holding her, Liang Su would have woken up from the cold long ago.
She was dreaming again.
In the dream, Aunt Zhao came to Liang Su and pleaded with her, saying that she did not want to leave the base.
Liang Su naturally disagreed. Doing wrong things requires punishment. This is Liang Su's consistent principle.
Unexpectedly, when Aunt Zhao returned home, she drank pesticide and committed suicide.
Liang Su didn't know whether she did it intentionally or not, but after the pesticide went into her stomach, she convulsed for a while and then died.
Aunt Zhao died right after leaving Liang Su's house. Everyone would think about what Liang Su did to her.
Liang Su was speechless. Zhang Lin's hateful eyes were engraved in her mind.
Not long after Aunt Zhao passed away, Zhang Linshang's father in his hometown was devastated and died.
As a result, Shen Congji and Liang Su were pushed to the forefront.
Although Liang Su did not commit any crime, she was closely related to the death of Aunt Zhao and her husband, which directly affected Shen Congji.
Finally, in a mission, Shen Congji led Zhang Lin to a group. At the critical moment, this teammate pointed his gun at the back of his head.
Gunshots rang out and Liang Su woke up from his dream.
Shen Congji was like a human heater, warming Liang Su all over and making his palms sweat.
Liang Su leaned in his arms, put her ear to his heart, and listened to his strong heartbeat.
Fortunately, it was just a dream.
She was drowsy until dawn and didn't know whether she had fallen asleep or not. When she woke up in the morning, there was a dark circle under her eyes.
"Didn't sleep well?"
Liang Su told him about her dream last night, looking melancholy.
"Do you think Zhang Lin will really..." She could never forget the last scene.
Point the gun at your comrades.
Shen Congji said: “You didn’t see the end. He wouldn’t point the gun at his comrades.”
Absolute trust.
Liang Su asked doubtfully, "Zhang Lin is not one of your men, yet you seem to trust him very much."
"I used to lead him, but later he was transferred to Rao Yu's side."
The more outstanding ones under his command are Sun Dingsong, Wu Zhengyang, Zhang Lin and Gou Taian, four of whom are at the battalion level. If Sun Dingsong and Gou Taian can hold on a little longer, they will soon be promoted to deputy regiment commanders.
The only exception was Zhang Lin, who was the deputy battalion commander when he was transferred there, and he has not moved since then.
Liang Su was worried about last night's dream. He washed up nervously and had breakfast.
Before Shen Congji left, he patted her head and comforted her: “I’ll go find Zhang Lin. If Aunt Zhao really comes, don’t be afraid.”
Zhang Lin should be able to stop Aunt Zhao.
Moreover, judging from Aunt Zhao's personality, she doesn't seem like someone who would easily seek death. After all, there is an old man in her hometown who is seriously ill in bed.
As soon as Shen Congji left, Aunt Zhao arrived.
Just like in her dream, she came here to beg Liang Su to let her go.
Liang Su was very surprised: "Auntie, why do you have to stay?"
Aunt Zhao's persistence was simply incomprehensible to her.
Her question left Aunt Zhao speechless for a moment.
She had already accepted her fate and decided to return to the countryside to take care of the old man.
It’s actually a good idea, because then you don’t need to hire a nanny and you can save some money.
But Qian Qiuxia and Wang Minghua came to her house and tried their best to persuade her to stay.
On the one hand, she said that Zhang Lin couldn't live without her, and on the other hand, she said that after Zhang Lin got married, he would not remember her as his mother.
When Aunt Zhao heard that they seemed to have a solution, she agreed.
Today, she also followed Wang Minghua's words and came to Liang Su to plead for mercy.
"My son hasn't married yet, so he can't leave me."
Liang Su found it funny. "Didn't Zhang Lin live like this before you came? Why can't he leave you now?"
Aunt Zhao lowered her head awkwardly, "I can't leave my son either."
"What about Zhang Lin's father? Can he leave you? Or, in other words, can you let him go in your heart?"
Aunt Zhao felt conflicted and of course worried.
She originally didn't want to come to the island, but the old man asked her to come and arrange Zhang Lin's marriage.
Who knew that not only did he not find a daughter-in-law, but he also caused a lot of trouble for his son.
"Auntie, you haven't even thought of a reason why you have to stay, so why are you listening to others and coming to beg me?"
Aunt Zhao looked panicked, "I didn't listen to others..."
Liang Su interrupted her: "I know whether you have listened to others or not. I just want to remind you not to be led by the nose."
Aunt Zhao didn't think she was that stupid. Wang Minghua just wanted to help her stay in the base, so how could he cheat her?
"Liang Su, my son hasn't married yet, I can't just leave like this."
Liang Su said helplessly: "Do you think what you are doing here will not affect his chances of finding a wife?"
How can I talk about getting married when I have lost my reputation?
"Auntie, please go back to your hometown first. After a while, everyone will naturally forget about this matter. Then I will help him find a female comrade, okay?"
Aunt Zhao was half-believing and half-doubting, but still shook her head stubbornly.
"I have to see for myself. If my son can't find a wife, I will die with regrets."
Liang Su: "..." All I said was in vain.
"Auntie, what will you do if I don't agree today?"
Aunt Zhao was speechless. She would follow Wang Minghua's advice and threaten others by drinking pesticides.
But the pesticide has been diluted with water, and Wang Minghua said this will ensure that nothing will happen.
Liang Su sighed, "You're not thinking of going home and drinking pesticides, are you?"
Aunt Zhao: “…” Predicting the future?
How come Liang Su even guessed that she was going to drink pesticide?
"If I drink the pesticide, will you let me stay?"
"Auntie, pesticides can kill people. Don't believe those scare tactic. If you have any problems, it's best to communicate with Zhang Lin. If he agrees to let you stay, it's not too late to talk to him then." Liang Su said calmly.
Aunt Zhao returned home in a daze, not knowing whether she should continue drinking pesticides.
In fact, leaving the base is not a big deal.
She was holding the diluted pesticide in her hand, moving back and forth.
I was thinking about drinking it, Wang Minghua said it would be fine.
At the same time, I thought it was better to forget it and not cause trouble for Zhang Lin again.
Just as she was hesitating, she suddenly heard a loud shout: "Mom, what are you doing!"
Aunt Zhao was so scared that she trembled and threw the pesticide in her hand away.
"I didn't drink, I just looked!"
Zhang Lin's eyes were red as he looked at her with heartache.
"Mom, why do you want to drink pesticide? Have you ever thought about what will happen to Dad and me if something happens to you?"
When Shen Congji told him about it, he didn't believe it and hurried home, only to see her holding the pesticide with the bottle cap open.
Zhang Lin slumped to his knees, "Mom, I never blamed you. Your son will take responsibility for your mistakes. Don't let it get to you!"
Aunt Zhao was really scared by him.
"I'm not desperate. This pesticide is diluted with water. Wang Minghua said it's okay to drink a sip or two. I just wanted to try it."
