All the procedures for Mi Yuehua and Ran Yingying to join the army have been completed.
Ran Xiasheng plans to leave Wei'an County in two days.
Before leaving, he wanted to settle some grudges.
Let’s not talk about other things for now, and just talk about Ran Chunwang’s matter.
If it is not resolved, we don't know what will happen.
He had originally not decided to resolve the grudge from fourteen years ago.
Whether I served in the army for him or went on my own, I should just swallow it and not bring up the old grudges again.
However, plans cannot keep up with changes.
Who could have known that things would end up like this.
Because of his wife's premature birth, because of the cruelty of the old man to his wife, and a series of other things, this man finally got angry.
Ran Chunwang added fuel to the fire and made some moves, and the matter finally evolved into the current situation.
But Ran Xiasheng did not regret doing so.
No matter how deep the brotherhood is, it will eventually be worn away layer by layer.
However, this matter has not been judged in that way.
Old Yang told him, "Fourteen years have passed since this incident, and a lot of evidence has disappeared. Although we have your testimony, many things need to be checked in the archives. But you also know that the country has gone through this movement, and many things have been burned and destroyed. Without evidence, there can be no verdict. If we insist on a verdict, then you and I will both be in trouble, and history will always be settled."
Ran Xiasheng understood.
Now, because of this directing movement, they can force Ran Chunwang to be sentenced. But what happens once this movement is over?
Throughout history, all movements would not continue forever and would eventually come to an end. He could have expected this.
Moreover, I heard that the leadership is now slowly beginning to correct the mistakes of this movement.
Although it has not been completely corrected, it has begun to be cleared up.
At this critical juncture, naturally, nothing can go wrong.
You can't kill one thousand enemies and lose eight hundred of your own. Such a low-level strategy will naturally not work.
Even if he wanted to punish Ran Chunwang, he had to do it step by step and not act rashly.
"Old Ran, I promise you that I will continue to look for evidence and will give Ran Chunwang a severe punishment. I will not let him go unpunished."
Old Yang also hated such people very much. They did so many things to avoid conscription.
When Old Ran did not join the army under the name of Ran Chunwang, it was the right choice.
Although, if Old Ran had been imprisoned under Ran Chunwang's name, he would have been convicted now without even having to look for evidence, but Old Ran's life would have been ruined.
At the critical moment, Lao Ran was clear-headed and signed up under his own name. This choice was definitely the right one.
Although he can't do anything to Ran Chunwang for the time being, he will definitely find evidence.
Although many files are missing and the certification materials in the hospital are gone, it does not mean that there is no other evidence.
Since it has been done, it will definitely leave traces.
"Take your sister-in-law back to the southwest first, and leave the things here to me. I will take care of it for you. And Old Wu will also investigate the incident of Ran Chunwang's desertion. With the two of us here, you don't have to worry."
Ran Xiasheng nodded: "I know, we really can't rush this matter. This matter has only been going on for a dozen days, and it is really not that easy to find evidence. Anyway, Ran Chunwang is imprisoned in the Revolutionary Committee, and he can't escape for the time being."
"Yes, Lao Diao from the Revolutionary Committee told me that they would not let a single deserter go, even if there was no evidence, they would criticize him every day."
Ran Xiasheng knew that this was only a temporary solution.
"Okay, you have almost finished the procedures for accompanying the troops. When are you leaving?"
Ran Xiasheng laughed: "Why, you still can't stop me from leaving?"
Old Yang said, "That's not the case. I can't bear to see you stay here. But I received a call from the southwest, asking me to tell you that the war there is getting intense, and I hope you can return to the army immediately."
Ran Xiasheng became serious: "Is there another war?"
"You should know this better than I do. I have already changed my job, and I cannot immediately find out many confidential matters. Didn't you receive the telegram from the army?"
Ran Xiasheng shook his head: "I haven't received it yet. If the war gets intense, they will notify me immediately."
Lao Yang said, "It may not be the most critical moment yet, but this morning, Head of the Qi Group called me and asked if I could contact you and ask you to end your vacation in the next few days and rush back to the southwest."
Ran Xiasheng was silent and thought for a while. "I have already booked a train ticket for the day after tomorrow, so I should be in a hurry. I'll leave Ran Chunwang to you, Old Yang. And please pay more attention to my parents in the countryside. I'm afraid they will get angry and do something to hurt me because of our departure."
Old Yang said, "Don't worry about these. I will be careful not to let your parents' affairs leave a big impression on you. Your fourth brother will probably also be keeping an eye on your parents. If your parents want to do something to let you down, your fourth brother and his wife will be the first to disagree."
Ran Xiasheng thought about it and realized that it was indeed the case.
The fourth brother and his wife are smarter than anyone else, so they certainly wouldn't let such a thing happen.
Although such things seem to be disadvantageous to the second room, in the long run, they are actually of no benefit to the fourth room.
Smart people know what to do without any hints.
Ran Xiasheng felt half relieved.
In fact, he was unsure about what was going on in the old house.
His parents, it turns out, have different ways of thinking than other people.
They might actually file a complaint with the government.
Although he is not afraid of them suing him, if they do, he will be in trouble and it will be difficult to explain himself.
It would be best if we could stop it.
With Old Yang's words, he felt much more relieved.
Old Yang is not the kind of person who can make boasts easily.
…
Not only was Ran Xiasheng ready, but Zhai Jianguo was also ready.
He didn't need to prepare anything else, so he could just pack his bag and go out.
His mother has difficulty walking, so he can carry her there on his back. He just needs to prepare a place for her to stay.
Before leaving, Ran Xiasheng talked a lot with the fourth brother.
Not only did he tell him that his parents in the old house might sue him in the county, he also told him about Ran Chunwang's matter. These matters all needed to be kept under the watchful eye of the fourth brother.
Ran Dongsheng said, "Brother, don't worry. I know all these things and will pay attention to them. Don't worry about my parents. I will pay attention to them and will not let them do anything stupid. You don't have to worry about these. I understand everything."
Ran Xiasheng patted Dongsheng on the shoulder and said, "Everything at home is left to you."
…
The adults were all busy with preparations before departure, so only Ran Yingying and Zhai Hong were the most idle.
Zhai Hong rarely came to the Ambassador Hotel, and they stayed in another hotel.
After all, not everyone can stay at Ambassador Hotel, and you need a special letter of introduction.
It was Old Yang from the Armed Forces who issued the certificate, and only then were they able to move in.
But Zhai Jianguo was different, he did not have such proof, so they could not stay at the Ambassador Hotel.
Although Zhai Jianguo could go to Old Yang to ask for the certificate, he did not want to trouble Old Yang.
After all, Lao Yang's relationship with him was not as good as his relationship with Ran Xiasheng, and he owed her a favor.
Favors cannot be owed casually; if you owe them, you must repay them.
Ran Yingying was in the hotel, and when she had nothing to do, she would lie down and practice.
This is a cultivation method she just invented. She doesn’t need to meditate, she can cultivate directly while sleeping.
She imagined herself as a koi fish, bathing in the sunlight, with the sunlight as water, and she slowly absorbed the spiritual energy in the sunlight.
This method is better than opening her eyes and practicing according to the method of her previous life.
Better able to absorb the spiritual energy from the sunlight.
And the aura in the sunlight feels like there is an extra layer of something indescribable and magical.
These days, Mi Yuehua would occasionally carry her out to bask in the sun, and occasionally carry her to visit the hotel where the Zhai family lived.
Strangely enough, Grandma Zhai seems to be in much better health these days.
Granny Zhai even joked, "Yingying is such a lucky little girl. When I see her, even my body gets better."
Mi Yuehua was also very happy when she heard this, "My son Xia Sheng also said so, saying that Yingying is simply the lucky star of the family. When she was born, he escaped a big explosion and avoided death."
Grandma Zhai said, "That Yingying is the little lucky star. I really want to touch the little lucky star and bring some luck to me."
Mi Yuehua was happy: "Auntie, if you want to touch, then touch her little hand. This child likes to touch others with her little hands more and more recently."
Ran Yingying's ears perked up.
Recently, Ran Yingying has been practicing every day. Even when she is held by Mi Yuehua, she is still practicing. The spiritual energy generated by the practice will naturally affect the people around her.
After interacting with the Zhai family for a long time, it was natural that it would have an impact on Grandma Zhai.
Grandma Zhai feels that she has been feeling better recently. This is not an illusion but a real feeling.
The benefits of Reiki to the body are not insignificant.
Ran Yingying wanted to pass some Jinli Qi to Grandma Zhai, but she couldn't make contact with her, so she failed. However, it doesn't mean that the spiritual energy generated by her cultivation can't be passed on to Grandma Zhai.
"Forget it. I'm an old woman. I'd better be more careful. Yuehua, Jianguo said we can get on the train tomorrow. I don't know if we will be in the same carriage."
From my conversations with Mi Yuehua these days, I found out that she likes this child very much.
When she lived in the village, she didn't have many friends because of her mobility problems, and people didn't often come to visit her.
When she was in good health, she had many friends. But when she got sick, she naturally had fewer friends.
Especially after his daughter-in-law ran away and there were rumors in the village that Jianguo had died, people visited even less frequently.
This time, the third brother brought her out and stayed in a hotel in Weian County. Mi Yuehua brought her to visit, and she was in a particularly good mood.
Especially when she saw the child’s fair and tender face and sweet smile, her heart felt even more comfortable.
But when it comes to really touching the child's hand, she is still hesitant.
After all, she is an old woman in poor health, and it would be a shame for her to bring her illness to others.
A child's hands are so tender and her skin is so rough. What if you scratch her hands?
She looked at her little grandson and seemed quite happy about the arrival of the Ran family.
Although he has always been running after his son, he is now willing to play with the little girl from the Ran family.
The grandson needs a playmate.
He was too lonely in Zhaijia Village. He had no playmates, he didn't like playing with others, and no one was willing to play with him.
In fact, Sun Zi was very envious of those people in the village who played together. She saw him lying at the door of the house several times, watching the little grandchildren outside playing with mud, playing with glass balls, and having water fights.
Every time she asked him to go out and play with them, his grandson would always say, "They don't like to play with me."
When asked why, he didn't say.
He just watched silently and was unwilling to come forward.
This trip to Wei'an County was the best thing that happened to her. She could see that her grandson seemed to be changing slowly.
This is a good start, as long as the grandson can change. She is afraid that the grandson will always be like this, ignoring others and not willing to play with other children.
If you continue to be lonely like this, something bad will happen sooner or later.
"Zhai Hong went out with Jianguo again?" Mi Yuehua had gotten used to it. Every time she came to visit, as long as Jianguo was not there, Zhai Hong would definitely not be there.
It's unbelievable how much this child sticks to Jianguo.
Mi Yuehua was worried that when Jianguo returned to the army, the child would be very sad.
Jianguo couldn't always take him with him; he needed to work and go to the battlefield.
This child must learn to be independent someday.
"Children will grow up eventually, and when they grow up they won't be so clingy anymore." Grandma Zhai sighed.
Ran Yingying also remained silent, because she knew that it was not so easy to open her brother's mind.
She really hoped that she could grow up quickly, at least be able to talk and walk, so that she could accompany her brother.
"Yes, children will eventually grow up, and when they grow up, they will no longer lack a sense of security."
It's understandable that this child feels extremely insecure because of what happened to him in his childhood.
After all, his mother left him when he needed her love the most.
Now he only has his father to stick with. If his father leaves him, you can imagine how sad he will be.
Mi Yuehua sighed and felt even more distressed for Zhai Hong.
This child has no motherly love, so she should give him more motherly love.
Although she couldn't replace his mother, at least she could bring more happiness to his lonely childhood.
"Has Captain Ran told us where we will live when we go to the county town?" This is what Grandma Zhai was most worried about.
Although her son kept saying that he would arrange everything by then, she was still worried.
Going there, you're unfamiliar with the place and have to start all over again.
I don’t know whether my neighbors are good or not, and whether we can get along with them.
"Xia Sheng has already called his comrades over there and asked them to help find a house. We can't live in the family area for now, but there is a place over there that the army has set aside for logistical support, and there is a place specifically for families to live in."
It can be considered a family area.
I heard from Xia Sheng that there are many families living there, but it is difficult to find a house there.
Without certain identity conditions, you cannot live there.
Of course, he was not worried about Xia Sheng's conditions, as he had already met the conditions to join the army. Moreover, he was a combat hero, so the regiment would only take care of him.
It seems that there are some difficulties in Jianguo.
From what Xia Sheng said, he has already negotiated with the group.
If it is really not possible, then find a house outside the family area. Although it is a little far away, it is not too far. If you want to take care of it, it can still be done.
There is no other way, and sometimes, there is only one thing you can do.
When Zhai Jianguo came back, Ran Xiasheng also came to pick up Mi Yuehua and her daughter.
"Is everything done?" Mi Yuehua asked him in a low voice.
Ran Xiasheng said, "It's all done. We can leave tomorrow. Jianguo and I have already bought the train tickets. We bought sleeper berths. In the past, it would take more than 30 hours. Without sleeper berths, we have elderly people and children here, so it's hard to afford it."
Mi Yuehua thought so too. After all, they were not young people who could make do with hard seats, but the elderly and children could not bear to sit for more than 30 hours. Especially since Grandma Zhai was in poor health and her legs were not very convenient, she could not sit in a hard seat.
Although sleeping bunks cost half as much, they are less troublesome.
"Don't worry about the money. You can earn money again, but your health is the most important thing. You just came out of confinement and you can't sit for long. If you have a sleeper berth ticket, you should use it. We are lucky this time. The tickets for both families are in the same carriage."
Mi Yuehua said: "When I was chatting with my aunt just now, we talked about this. I didn't know if everyone could go through with one carriage. Sure enough, I was lucky and bought a carriage."
Ran Yingying opened her eyes slightly: With me here, how could your luck be bad?
Small things like buying a ticket for a carriage don't require me to waste my energy.
But the parents didn't know it and just thought it was perfect luck.
The train they were trying to catch was a five o'clock train in the morning, so everyone got up early and went to the train station to wait for the train.
But before leaving, Ran Xiasheng did one thing.
Reported staff member A to the hotel leader.
He did not let Mi Yuehua know about this. It would be useless to let her know, and it would only add to her troubles.
The reason why I reported this staff member A is because her intentions and actions were not pure.
"Xia Sheng, what's wrong? What did the hotel manager suddenly want to talk to you about?"
Ran Xiasheng said: "Nothing much, I just suggested some things to them and they came to thank me."
Only Ran Yingying pursed her lips and wanted to smile.
Of course she knew what her father had done.
Sometimes I find that my dad is actually very sinister.
She knew that Staff A had a crush on Dad. She didn't pay much attention to it at the time, but the more she found out, the more she felt something was wrong.
Of course, she was not worried that her father was really seduced by that employee A. After all, her mother was much better than that employee A and was many times more beautiful.
But she didn't expect that her father would actually trap that man and report him before leaving.
If she reported that person, she would face more than just criticism. She might even be fired.
Firing is no joke.
To be able to work in the hotel must have been the result of a lot of effort from my family, but my father reported me and ruined my chance.
That staff member A's background is definitely not as big as Dad's. After all, the one Dad is connected to is the Armed Forces. Moreover, Dad's position in the army is not small. As the leader of the hotel, there is no need for him to offend the Armed Forces for a waiter.
The attempt to steal a chicken ended up losing the rice. This is what happened to Staff A.
Mi Yuehua was confused, but she didn't doubt anything.
She always believed what her husband said.
She would not suspect that someone would take a fancy to her husband and want to steal him away.
As a result, he not only failed to dig the corner, but also buried himself in it.
Because she didn't know, she never worried or felt troubled.
The second branch of the Ran family left quietly without telling anyone.
By the time the news reached the old house in Xiashan Village, it was already a long time later. By that time, Ran Xiasheng and his team had already arrived in the southwest.
There was a lot of commotion at the old house, and they even wanted to go to the county to file a complaint, but they were stopped by Ran Dongsheng, who locked them in a room and scolded them.
Of course, this is a story for later.
By this time, they had already boarded the train.
Theirs was carriage 08, and their beds were particularly good, with two lower berths and two middle berths. The lower berths were for Grandma Zhai and Mi Yuehua, while Zhai Jianguo and Ran Xiasheng slept in the middle berth, with their two children in their arms.
They were all in the same carriage. Besides them, there were two other passengers, one from Northeast China and the other from Hunan. They were both young people, looking like college students, and they said they were going to study in the southwest.
Ran Xiasheng was still curious. There were indeed schools in the southwest, but it was already past the start of the school term.
More importantly, the southwest was at war, and few students from other places were willing to study there.
Ran Xiasheng has always been a vigilant person. Although this was just a small episode, it still caught his attention.
