Looking at the bright big windows and plain curtains, Gu Qingqing and Gu Qinglie were both amazed, "Brother, your house is so beautiful!" And so rich.
Chu Dai corrected her: "It's ours. These were all provided by the headquarters, and they don't belong to us to be exact."
"You must be tired after sitting in the car for two days and one night. Go upstairs and rest first. I'll take you to the cafeteria for dinner at six o'clock."
Gu Qingqing followed him up the waxed wooden stairs, "Can I meet my big brother in the cafeteria?"
Gu Qinglie could answer this question: "Since the food standards are different, we shouldn't be in the same canteen, right, Lao Chu?"
Chu Dai raised his eyebrows, "You know very well that this is the case. The Army and Air Force cafeterias are separate."
"Are there any navy?" Gu Qingqing asked curiously.
"Yes," Chu Dai was silent for a moment, then said, "The navy stationed at Baisha Island also belongs to the Southern Military Region."
Gu Qingqing nodded, indicating that she understood.
Soon she asked again: "Can we go to the Air Force cafeteria to eat?"
"Sure." Chu Dai opened the door, put his luggage on the table, and threw the key to Gu Qinglie: "Open the next room yourself. We need to rest."
Gu Qinglie: "...I will be able to see my elder brother soon, I have to talk to him..."
Chu Dai glanced at him neutrally and sent him to the next room.
He turned back and closed the door, then opened the heavy curtains, and the originally dark room suddenly became bright.
The man's room was simply furnished with a desk, a chair, a bookshelf, a wardrobe, and a large wooden bed.
The army green quilt on the bed was neatly folded into a tofu block, still showing the traces of when he last came back to stay.
Gu Qingqing sat down on the bed, and watched the man take out the clothes from the suitcase and hang them back in the closet with her round almond-shaped eyes. She asked, "Brother?"
Chu Dai looked back at her: "Are you sleepy? Take a nap, I'll call you when it's time for dinner."
"I'm a little sleepy, but brother, you have lived in the compound for so long. Did you have any difficulty getting used to it when you first arrived at the Corps?" The Corps was full of wind and sand, and the house was simple. All the belongings were a single camp bed, a cabinet, a table and two chairs.
In the fall, she took the quilt out to dry it in the sun. When she went to collect it at night, the quilt had become four or five pounds heavier, and when she shook it, it was full of sand.
Chu Dai put her clothes together with his own. "I was not used to it at first, but I got used to it later."
Maybe the Chu family has rough genes in their bones. In the past two years, they have eaten sweet potatoes and potatoes normally and didn’t feel they were bitter.
Gu Qingqing suddenly felt a little sorry for him. Being in the Southern Military Region was better than being in the Construction Corps. He really wanted to defend his country.
Chu Dai packed his things and put the luggage bag on top of the cabinet. He sat down on the bed and saw his girl with tears in her eyes. He was stunned for a moment and laughed: "It's really not hard. Didn't our brother also go through this? Your man is not so coquettish."
He reached out, held the girl in his arms, patted her back gently, and said softly, "I'm sorry that you have to go to the island with me and suffer."
Gu Qingqing shook her head in his arms, and the two of them whispered to each other for a while, then took off their cotton padded jackets and lay down on the bed.
Chu Dai slept beside her, his hand on her waist, coaxing her softly, "Go to sleep, I'm here."
Gu Qingqing was aroused by his gentle words, and before falling asleep, she suddenly thought of...
Is she going to meet her father-in-law tonight?
I was half asleep and half awake, but he coaxed me to sleep gently.
At six o'clock, Gu Qinglie came out of the next room in high spirits, and the three of them went downstairs together.
Gu Qingqing also recovered and her usual lively self reappeared. She followed Chu Dai around several camps and finally arrived at the Air Force Group Army Base. She walked up to the sentry and explained that she was here to visit relatives. Gu Qinglie also took out his soldier's certificate.
"Comrade, I need to make a phone call to report to the military. Please wait." The sentry turned around and tried to call the military.
"Adai?!" Chu Zhao just came out of the station. Seeing the man in black woolen clothes, he rushed up to him with surprise and punched him in the chest: "You kid, you finally decided to come back!"
Chu Dai raised his hand to greet him, and said with a smile: "You have been to the border town so many times, but you have never come to the regiment to see me. Who is the one who is not a good brother?"
"I'm not a brother enough to take a two-day and one-night train to that barren place in the north to bring you candy? How come you, Chu, have no conscience after going out?" Chu Zhao complained, his eyes fell on the girl next to him, and he immediately knew her identity.
He approached her with a playful smile: "Hello, sister-in-law. I am A-Dai's childhood friend and his best friend."
Gu Qingqing was not shy either, and greeted him with a smile: "Hello, A Zhao."
"Wow, I knew A-Dai must have mentioned me to you!" Chu Zhao felt completely relieved this time. He looked at the tall man on the other side and asked, "Who is this brother?"
"Qingqing's brother, my second uncle." Chu Dai couldn't help but smile when he said this.
"Hello, second uncle, I'm Chu Zhao, Adai's brother." Chu Zhao introduced himself again.
"Hello, brother." Gu Qinglie also smiled. In fact, they have quite similar temperaments.
"My second uncle is also a soldier, right? His temperament is quite eye-catching."
"Yes, from the Construction Corps." Gu Qinglie said what he meant without hiding anything.
His straightforward personality was just what Chu Zhao wanted.
"Comrade," the sentry hung up the phone, "you can go in."
"Eh? Adai, aren't you here to see me?" Chu Zhao said depressedly.
"Visiting relatives." Chu Dai said briefly and took Gu Qingqing in first, with Gu Qinglie and Chu Zhao following closely behind.
"Visiting relatives? Besides me, who else do you know in the Air Force Group? My father?" Chu Zhao's father is the commander of the Air Force Group, Chu Zhan.
"No, my uncle." Chu Dai said casually.
Chu Zhao was completely stunned this time. "What's your name? Do I know him?"
"A Zhao, my eldest brother is Gu Canyang!" Gu Qingqing replied with a smile: "Have you met him?"
Chu Zhao looked at it in disbelief, "What a coincidence, this is not it, I have seen it before, it is very familiar."
Chu Zhao said as he walked: "Gu Canyang is the company commander of the elite airborne company of the group army. There are 90 people in his company, all of whom are the treasures of our air force group army and fly fighter planes. However, they went to the Jianghai airspace to perform a repelling mission this morning, and it seems that it is almost time for them to return now."
As soon as he finished speaking, a huge explosion broke through the air. Gu Qingqing looked up subconsciously and saw five attack planes flying low over her head. She was in a daze for a long time.
Is it your brother?
"Don't just stand there, go to the helipad and take a look." Chu Zhao spoke first.
Gu Qinglie was a little confused, then smacked his lips.
Compared with Gousheng who drives a plane, he, who drives a tank, seems a little inferior.
Chu Dai grew up in a military area and was used to seeing fighter planes, but he had never been to the helipad before: "Can we go?"
The troops still maintain a high level of confidentiality regarding this special weapon.
"Yes, the fighter planes are also being put into storage from the apron at this time, so you can't see anything." Chu Zhao waved his hand: "Just follow me."
Even with Chu Zhao leading the way, they still had to be interrogated and questioned. After passing many checkpoints, they finally reached the tarmac.
There were runways marked everywhere, but not a single fighter plane.
A few people walked slowly not far away, and as they followed, the fighter hangar was completely closed.
Gu Canyang was slightly startled when he saw a girl wearing a blue shirt and a red scarf on the tarmac. He said to his comrades beside him, "My sister is here. You guys go to the cafeteria first."
Although the voice was as calm as usual, the other pilots could hear some suppressed joy in it.
It's so rare.
They couldn't help but take a few more glances at the girl in the distance who looked particularly cute in her red scarf. Someone asked, "Captain, has our sister found a boyfriend?"
Hearing this, Gu Canyang's face instantly turned as cold as ice, and he walked towards the girl without saying a word.
The remaining air force pilots looked at each other in bewilderment. After a while, someone broke the silence: "Let's go to the cafeteria and wait for the company commander. We can ask him if there is anything later."
"As you say."
When Gu Qingqing saw the man wearing a leather flight jacket and flight boots, walking towards her at a leisurely pace, she recognized him even without seeing his face.
This is her brother!
Her eyes welled up and she ran over.
“Brother!”
It is the uncontrollable happiness and dependence.
Gu Canyang paused and was hugged by the girl.
The man took off his white gloves, untied his flight helmet, and held it in one hand. He held her slender waist with his left hand and rested his chin on the top of her head.
"I've lost weight."
