A hint of helplessness flashed across Fu Shen's face. "Even if Qin Zhizhi's parents found her, there's no need for them to break up with you, right? Don't you want to know the reason?"
He was heartbroken and obediently accepted the breakup after someone simply wrote him a letter.
Wang Renyi frowned. "This letter was sent from my corps, and she didn't write down the address of her biological parents on it."
Fu Shen suggested, "Once you've recovered from your injuries and returned to the corps, you can ask Qin Zhizhi's adoptive parents, and you'll find out."
Wang Renyi's eyes lit up immediately. He slapped his forehead and said excitedly, "That's right! How come I didn't think of that?"
After reading the letter, the thought that he might never see Qin Zhizhi again made him feel terrible. He didn't know what to do and just wanted to confide in someone. The first person he thought of was Fu Shen.
The two chatted for a while longer before heading to the cafeteria for lunch.
In the afternoon, Fu Shen went to see Yang Guohua. After finishing his business with him, he thought of Jiang Huaidong.
What's the current situation in Jianghuai East?
Yang Guohua remained calm: "There's nothing special going on. Maybe he's been keeping a low profile lately since you saw him at the state-run restaurant, and he rarely leaves the military base."
Fu Shen nodded slightly. "Political Commissar, I need to ask for leave. Could you please combine all my previous leave days into one period?"
Yang Guohua was unaware that Su Yue was pregnant and couldn't help but ask, "Why did you take so much leave?"
Fu Shen rarely took leave in the past, and he had accumulated quite a lot of vacation days.
Fu Shen: "Yueyue is about to give birth, I'm going to Beicheng to be with her."
The thought of holding his child in his arms soon brought a slight smile to his lips.
Yang Guohua looked on in astonishment. "What? She's about to give birth? She was already several months along when we went to Beicheng?"
Fu Shen frowned slightly, "Didn't your sister-in-law tell you?"
Yang Guohua shook his head, "She told me about this back then. No wonder my mother's foot injury healed, but Yang Yimiao and the others went to the countryside and haven't come back yet."
Upon hearing the words "going to the countryside," Fu Shen became curious. "Why are Yang Yimiao and the others going to the countryside?"
...
Fu Shen returned home from Yang Guohua's office, went to the water tank, filled a bucket with water, and then carefully wiped the house inside and out. After wiping, he reached out and touched the dried areas, feeling that they were not clean enough, so he filled another bucket with clean water and wiped again carefully.
The tables, chairs, windows, and floors were all meticulously cleaned and swept.
Thinking about the vegetables in the garden, which haven't been tended to for so long, I'm sure they've grown a lot of weeds and need some watering.
He carried a bucket with a ladle inside and went out again.
When we arrived at the vegetable garden, we could see the woman who had been standing with Hao Chunhua that morning from afar.
If he hadn't mistaken the vegetable patch for a real one, this woman was weeding in her own vegetable patch.
Zhang Lanhua had just returned from her son's rural post last night. Having been away from the army for over two months, she was worried that the vegetable garden must be overgrown with weeds. After resting for most of the day, she told her grandson to stay home and then came over with a hoe.
Seeing Fu Shen holding a small wooden bucket, standing quietly in place, his eyes fixed on his family's vegetable garden.
There was a woman in his vegetable garden who didn't look like Su Yue.
She strode forward, her face full of doubt, and said, "Battalion Commander Fu, who is that woman in your vegetable garden? Are you sure you haven't made a mistake?"
Su Yue called Zhang Lanhua "Auntie," which was just a polite way of addressing women and had nothing to do with men. So she addressed Fu Shen in the same way that everyone else did.
Fu Shen glanced at Zhang Lanhua and said calmly, "She knows Hao Chunhua."
Zhang Lanhua's eyes widened. "It can't be Hao Chunhua's niece, can it? She wanted you to do it back then..."
