What do you think of me?

The Gu family lived in a small courtyard in the southwest corner of the county town, which was exactly diagonally opposite the government compound. After sending Shen Roujiao off, the two Zhang brothers turned around and walked back.

"Brother, you can go without worries now." Zhang Qingjie bumped the person next to him heavily with his shoulder.

In the past, Zhang Qingjie always thought that his brother was able to do so well in the army because of his iron fists, but this time he realized that he relied on his brains.

Zhang Qingjun took the initiative to come on this trip. He had no intention of giving up the opportunity to go to Tibet, even if he had thought about it, but a good man has ambitions and the dream hidden in his heart is always there. As long as it has not been realized, he will not give up.

Shen Roujiao was right when she said, "A soldier who doesn't want to be a general is not a good soldier." From the first day he put on his military uniform, Zhang Qingjun had only one goal: to become a general.

But as expected, an unexpected thing happened. A person suddenly appeared like a flower blooming in the desert, which made Zhang Qingjun's heart beat fast and gave him the idea of ​​stopping and thinking that if he transferred to the local area, he could also do something else.

"If I can come back two years later..." Zhang Qingjun was interrupted by his younger brother.

"Shut up. I've asked for you. The boss generously promised to send you and pick you up. It would be impolite to say anything unpleasant."

Last time, his father and his brother were chatting in the room, and Zhang Qingjie took everything to heart. If you want to be a military engineer, you must have the spirit of not fearing sacrifice. The medals on the chest of soldiers are earned with their lives.

......

Pingan County.

Zhou Huaiyue went to the train station early to buy a ticket. When it was his turn, there were no berths or hard seats left. Only standing tickets without seats for more than 30 hours were available. If it weren't for Shen's mother's matter, he would not have bought the ticket if he had promised Jingxuan and the master that he would bring Shen Roujiao back to Nanshan Village as soon as possible.

I bought two unreserved tickets for the next day and decided to get on the bus first and see if there are any other options.

After much thought, Zhou Huaiyue decided to send a telegram to Shen Roujiao so that she could be mentally prepared. It was already holiday time, so the telegram was sent to Hedong Village, and the content was: I have found your mother Tan Cuimei, wait for me to go back and tell her in detail.

......

Hedong Village.

When the car drove into the medicinal materials purchasing station, the whole village knew that Gu Changgeng was here again. He seemed to really think of himself as the son-in-law of the Shen family, carrying a lot of bags to send Shen Roujiao home. He greeted the ladies in the village along the way and received good reviews along the way.

"Oh, the cute girl is here again. She bought something like this for Old Shen."

"Look at other people's good son-in-law, he is so good no matter how you look at him."

"My dear, remember to come to the village to have some fun during the New Year. Your brother said he wants to buy more firecrackers so that we can celebrate the New Year."......

His heart was filled with joy, and it felt so good. As Zhang Qingjun left, the beads on Gu Changgeng's abacus clattered loudly.

Gu's mother not only made a beautiful cotton-padded jacket for Shen Roujiao, but also prepared several large bags of New Year's goods, including meat, chicken and apples, which she put in the car early. She was afraid that Shen Roujiao would not accept them, so she told Gu Changgeng to wait until he got there.

The Shen family was all there, and they were all very happy to see the younger sister and Chang Geng coming back together. Especially Shen's father, he insisted on keeping Junior Gu to have lunch before leaving. Shen Roujiao did not object, and Gu Chang Geng happily played with Shiwu in the yard, listening to the brothers and sisters talking about business matters.

Hu Zi regularly came to collect the goods and gave lectures. The yard of the purchasing station was often filled with people who loved to learn. During the leisure time in the farm, the whole village was learning and digging medicinal herbs, which was comparable to the people's commune period.

The village chief was often invited by other villages to talk about how to mobilize everyone's enthusiasm. He would talk about what Shen Roujiao had done on the mountain at that time. Because that approach was practical, Hedong Village really started to do it.

The medicinal materials purchasing station now has an income of at least 4,000 to 5,000 yuan per month. It will be even better next year. Because not only the villagers in Hedong Village, but also the villagers in the nearby villages are also working hard to work hard next year.

Worried that Gu Changgeng would come home too late, the Shen family prepared dinner earlier than usual. Shen Roujiao went to the kitchen herself and made her specialty, tomato and egg noodles. She was always good at cooking. The rich tomatoes were stewed with the fried golden eggs, and the smell of the sauce was so good that Gu Changgeng ate three bowls in a row. Shen's father was worried that he would feel uncomfortable after eating so much, but the brothers were more willing to talk, "Young man, don't just say three bowls, you can even eat five bowls."

As a matter of courtesy, when Gu Changgeng left, the Shen family also brought many gifts in large and small bags, including wild ginseng dug from the mountains, bait blocks made by themselves, deep-fried stinky tofu blocks, dried sweet potatoes roasted with firewood... All the good things that they thought were good were given to the scandalous boyfriend.

The car started, Gu Changgeng stuck his head out and said loudly to Shen Roujiao, "Senior sister, if we don't go back to Beijing, come and wish Uncle Shen a happy new year on the third day of the New Year."

…

Returning to the capital, Zhou Huaiyue was carrying a large bag. He fastened the strap tightly with one hand and held his father's hand with the other, struggling to move forward on the crowded platform.

Even though there were no seats, he still wanted to get as close to the hard sleeper compartment as possible so that he could get on the train and find someone to help. After more than 30 hours without a seat, my father's waist couldn't bear it.

People were crowded together. The entire platform was packed to the limit. The scene was chaotic and the noise was rumbling, like a buzzing machine covering the top of the head, noisy and inaudible. Zhou Huaiyue took his father and squeezed forward, "Excuse me, please let me pass. Sorry, please let me pass for a moment."

Suddenly, a young girl called him, "Hey, hello!"

Zhou Huaiyue looked back, but didn't recognize who she was. He thought it wasn't him she was calling, so he turned around and continued to squeeze in.

"Hey, it's us." Another girl was pulled up. She pointed at herself and then at the girl next to her. The two of them stood side by side with their shoulders around each other. They blinked their big eyes and smiled at Zhou Huaiyue.

Oh, now I remember the first time I came to the county town and queued up to make a phone call, the two girls who were tickling him from behind said, "Hello."

"Let's go back to the capital. This is your uncle, right? Are you going back to the capital too?" The girl tilted her head and saw the big bag on Zhou Huaiyue's back, then looked at Zhou's father with a head full of white hair.

"Hmm." What a coincidence.

But he didn't expect that they would take the initiative to greet him, a man with a criminal record.

"We're not in the same sleeper compartment, are we?" The girl's voice became higher, with an uncontrollable excitement, her eyes moving back and forth on Zhou Huaiyue's handsome face. His face was completely in the girl's aesthetic point, so much so that after that meeting, she had been thinking about it all the time, tossing and turning every night, looking forward to meeting him again.

"We don't have any seats." Feeling a little annoyed by her gaze, Zhou Huaiyue wanted to leave.

"That's perfect!" The girl jumped up happily, and helped Zhou Chuzhuo sit down with her hands. "Uncle, I'll give you my lower berth. You and your son can squeeze in together. I'll squeeze in with my companions, this is perfect.

After she finished speaking, she tugged at the sleeve of the girl next to her, forcing her to join in the conversation, "Well, we can squeeze into the middle shop."

There was no better solution for the time being, so in return, Zhou Huaiyue helped the two girls move their luggage.

After all, the sleeper car was comfortable and not crowded. It just took some effort to get on the train. The conductor originally did not allow the Zhou father and son who had no seats to enter the hard sleeper car. The girl was smart. She took out her own sleeper ticket, helped Zhou Chuzhuo, and said that her father was in poor health and could only apply for one ticket, so she and her brother had to take care of her father.

After much persuasion, he was finally able to get on the train. In order not to cause any more trouble for the two girls, not long after the train started, Zhou Huaiyue went to the conductor to buy a new ticket and ask if there were any other berths available, even in the upper berth, but that was not possible during the Spring Festival, so he could only pay the fare and sit back in the carriage.

The rest of the journey was just random chatting.

The girl's name is Qin Ye. She is not an educated youth. She came to Ping'an County during this period and was temporarily seconded to the army. Her family of four all work in the army. Her father and brother are military officers, her mother is a doctor in the army, and she is a nurse. They live in the north of Beijing.

Even a fool could see that she really wanted to get to know Zhou Huaiyue, but he was as cold as ice and couldn't answer her even a few words after asking her for a long time. Qin also found another way and chatted with Zhou's father.

Zhou Chuzhuo, who understood everything, could only shoulder this glorious and arduous task for his son. Fortunately, Qin could also speak, and he had a good time chatting with her.

The other girl was a real foodie, and she would take a look every time a shopping cart passed by. Zhou Huaiyue, with the mentality that they owed nothing to each other after getting off the car, treated them both to food along the way.

In the middle of the night, the whole carriage was filled with snoring. Zhou Huaiyue was tall and had long legs, so he couldn't squeeze in with his father. He dozed off in the aisle seat and was woken up by someone. Qin Ye's face came up to him and asked, "What do you think of me?"

She had spoken no more than ten sentences to Zhou Huaiyue since she got in the car, and most of them were about "whether to eat or not". She was so anxious that she couldn't sleep, so she just wanted to get clarification.

?

Zhou Huaiyue, who was half asleep and dazed, was so confused by her question that his brain went blank. He frowned and looked up at Qin Ye.

"Me." She pointed at herself, "What do you think?" His sleepy eyes were hazy with an ambiguous affection. When they looked at each other, she felt her heart beat unconsciously, and Qin Ye's face flushed.

She came too close and asked too directly, so Zhou Huaiyue stood up abruptly and took a step back, his seat bouncing back with a dull "bang".

"I'm sorry, I have a partner." Afraid that the other party didn't understand, he added: "We'll get married after the New Year, and I've got the certificate." Not leaving any chance, all roads were blocked without any gaps.

Qin Ye burst into tears at that moment.

I finally met him again, I finally fell in love with him again, I finally got so close to him, but why did he turn out to be a married man?

So annoying!

"I want to cry for a while." Qin Ye wiped the tears from his face with his sleeve.

"Okay." Zhou Huaiyue did not give any comfort. He walked to the connection between the two carriages and looked at the darkness outside the window.

There was not a trace of moonlight, the shadows of the trees flashed by like dark ghosts, and people's faces were reflected in the glass. It was easy to fall into thoughts of missing someone.

His sweetheart should be sleeping soundly now. If she received that telegram, she would definitely cry like Master Jingxuan. She had to take care of Ciyun and could not leave. The only wish of the master before his death was to see his third disciple whom he missed so much. Her Sanhua medicine prescription could not be taken underground and never see the light of day. Only the third disciple could carry it forward.

There are so many stories here, and Zhou Huaiyue wants to tell her one by one.
