Chapter 611: Visiting the Martyrs' Cemetery to Commemorate the Martyrs



Zhou Shuyi asked Shen Anyian to ride in the same car with him. Commander Ye also wanted to ride in the same car with them, but the car was no longer able to accommodate him.

He had no choice but to take another car and let Qin Zhengqi sit with him so that he could ask him about his recent situation.

Before getting in the car, Zhou Shuyi couldn't wait to ask Shen Anyan to unwrap the blanket and bring Lele over.

When Teacher Ye saw her holding the chubby Lele, he felt itchy.

I haven't seen my two little grandsons for a while, and they seem to have grown better. They are chubby, fair and tender, and have grown teeth. They are so cute.

When they grin, you just want to give them everything.

But he didn't have the chance to hug the child at the moment. He would have to wait until he arrived at the Martyrs' Cemetery to have the chance to get close to the child.

This is not the first time for the two children to go out and take a car ride. They had already taken a car when they went home for the Chinese New Year last time.

But they were too young at that time and didn't know anything. Now they are more than seven months old, have their own consciousness, and are very curious.

Along the way, Lele looked at the scenery outside the window excitedly, and danced with his hands trying to interact with the adults.

Zhou Shuyi talked to Lele patiently, making Lele giggle.

Shen Annian didn't know whether they could understand each other's conversation, but they were chatting happily.

Kang Kang, who was held in General Ye's arms, was also very excited. He looked out the window with great interest and babbled something.

But compared to the dancing Lele, he is much quieter and easier to take care of, and he won't make adults exhausted.

The car arrived at the gate of the Martyrs' Cemetery, where there was a sculpture.

There was no such budget before, so the Martyrs' Cemetery was not maintained and was overgrown with weeds.

The army would send people to clear the weeds before Qingming Festival every year, but by the next year, the weeds would have grown very tall again.

Now that the army has money, it has rebuilt the martyrs' cemetery, and there are long rows of stairs as soon as you enter the gate.

At the end of the stairs are the martyrs' tombstones, neatly arranged and square, creating a solemn atmosphere in the cemetery.

Neat rows of tombstones are like soldiers standing guard, guarding this land.

Worship is not allowed these days, but this is a martyrs' cemetery, and people still come here occasionally to pay tribute to the martyrs.

Shen Anyian got out of the car, helped General Ye and the others get off, and took Kang Kang over.

No matter what, General Ye is already eighty years old. If he were to walk to the Martyrs' Cemetery by himself, he would probably be exhausted, let alone carrying Kang Kang up there.

Kang Kang was soon taken over by Commander Ye.

Shen Annian was just worrying about how to carry Kang Kang up and whether to throw the child to his father, when Commander Ye came over and she didn't have to worry.

"Aunt Zhou, please give the child to me."

Although Zhou Shuyi was reluctant to leave Lele, she also knew that she was not physically able to walk up with the child on her back.

Shen Anyian took Lele and threw her to Qin Zhengqi.

Qin Zhengqi walked beside her holding Lele, still walking very easily.

General Ye refused to admit his old age and refused to be supported by anyone, insisting on walking up by himself.

Shen Annian let him do what he wanted, and when he got tired of walking, he would give him a hand.

The children also came to the Martyrs' Cemetery. Under the guidance of their teacher, they looked at this place curiously.

They didn't have a deep understanding of the cemetery. Looking at the standing tombstones, one child asked, "Teacher, what are these?"

"This is a monument. The PLA soldiers who died will be buried here."

"Teacher, why did the PLA soldiers sacrifice themselves?"

"Because the PLA soldiers fought against the bad guys to protect us.

They would rather sacrifice themselves to protect us."

"What about the bad guys? Are they dead too?"

"Yes, the bad guys died, so we can live in peace like today."

Tietou took out his small wooden gun and said, "I want to be a member of the People's Liberation Army and kill all the bad guys."

"Me too. I want to kill the bad guys too."

"Kill all the bad guys."

The children shouted excitedly one by one, and the teacher made a gesture to silence them.

"Everyone, keep your voices down. Let's not disturb others."

The children pursed their lips and followed their teacher, climbing the mountain to the Martyrs' Cemetery.

Suddenly, Tietou saw Zhou Yin and waved at him, "Uncle Zhou, Uncle Zhou..."

Zhou Yin looked over and saw a group of little kids walking towards him quickly.

"You're here too, aren't you tired?"

Tietou put his hands on his hips and said, "I'm not tired at all."

He specially asked Wang Guixiang to find him a belt, which he tied around his clothes. He also held the military water bottle given to him by Company Commander Li, looking very impressive.

Zhou Yin saw that his little face was flushed, and guessed that the child was a little hot from climbing the mountain, so he cheered them up.

"Just go a little further and we'll be there soon."

Tietou: "We know, we will do our best, classmates, let's charge forward."

Tietou was about to run, but Zhou Yin grabbed him by the collar and lifted him up.

"Be careful, the mountain road is difficult to walk on. Be careful and don't fall down."

Tietou: "We won't fall."

"I think you're the most dishonest one. You'd better behave yourself. I just saw your dad. You don't want him to beat you, do you?"

Tietou shrank his head and said, "I listened to the teacher."

What he meant was that he didn't run around at all and his father couldn't control him.

Zhou Yin walked forward with the children and told them stories. The children shouted "wow" and "wow" from time to time, which made Zhou Yin feel that he was very good at storytelling.
