On the train station platform.
Hundreds of young people in green military uniforms and bright red military uniforms bid farewell to their relatives and friends on the platform.
Hao Chunlei and Jie Jie both took the train every day.
In addition to the two of them, Zheng Tiansen and his entire division had seven other children from the army who joined the team successfully, but those seven were all boys.
In fact, compared with other places, the probability of having eligible young people in their school is quite high, and the pass rate is also high.
Perhaps it is because these children of the army have been greatly influenced by words and deeds since childhood.
Knowing that the two of them were leaving the next day, Linglong specially asked the quartermaster for half a day off to come and see them off.
Since their own children were in the group, Zheng Tiansen and his school also attached great importance to it and specially sent a car to take these children and their families to the city train station.
Hao Chunlei and her mother and daughter, Hao Jie, were all there as well.
Maybe girls are more emotional than boys. Most of the boys on the platform looked happy, proud and excited, but Hao Chunlei and Jie were already in tears.
Their mothers were reminding them of some precautions in the army.
Even though I have said it many times at home, I still can't help but keep nagging.
Linglong listened at the side and her eyes became red. She was also very envious.
This is what it means to have a mother who dotes on her child.
Unfortunately, she didn't know where her mother was, or even if she was still alive.
There were still a few minutes before getting on the bus, and Hao Chunlei and Jie finally had time to talk to Linglong.
"Linglong, give me the book and I will read it carefully."
"Linglong, I'll write to you when I join the army. Remember to write back."
The two of them chatted with each other, both of them reluctant to part.
How could Linglong be willing to do that?
Not to mention Sister Niu, the older sister, Hao Chunlei and Jie could be said to be her only real friends in the army.
Now that the two of them were gone, she was all alone again.
"Once you're settled, remember to tell me about your situation in the army, and I'll write back promptly. If you need anything else, you can also tell me and I'll send it to you."
"Linglong, it must be difficult for you to raise Congcong. When I earn an allowance, I will send you money every month."
"I want to send it too."
"No need, I can afford to support Congcong, you just need to take care of yourselves."
"That's impossible. The three of us picked up Congcong together. I'm Congcong's godmother."
"Linglong, please don't refuse, otherwise both of us will be unhappy."
Helplessly, Linglong had to agree to this matter, but she secretly decided in her heart that even if the two of them sent money back, she would buy some things she needed and send them back.
As we were talking, the team leader shouted at everyone to hurry up and get on the bus.
Hao Chunlei and Yu Jie could only leave with their belongings on their backs, looking back every step of the way.
After getting on the bus, the two of them opened the window on the platform side and stuck their heads out.
Even if I look at it a few more times.
There are many other people who have similar actions to them.
When the train started rolling, the two of them did not forget to shout.
"Remember to write a letter."
"I'm going to miss you guys."
Linglong put her hand to her mouth. "Have a safe trip! I'll be waiting for your good news soon!"
The straight train went away and turned the corner and disappeared from sight. Many people were still standing on the platform, reluctant to leave.
Back on the military train, everyone was in a very low mood.
Linglong also sat there with her knees hugged, not saying a word.
When the car returned to the army, Linglong was about to get off when she saw Zheng Tiansen standing under the car.
Zheng Tiansen helped her jump down.
"Come on, I'll take you somewhere."
"Where are you going?" Linglong asked curiously.
"You'll know when you go there."
He took Linglong out of the camp and walked to the nearby mountainside.
Linglong finally reacted.
"Brother Zheng, are we going up the mountain?"
"Yes, haven't you always wanted to go up the mountain? Let's go up and take a look today."
"But I only asked the quartermaster for half a day's leave."
"Don't worry, I've already made an appointment with the quartermaster."
He knew that Linglong would be in a bad mood after Hao Chunlei and the others left, and he had already planned to give Linglong a surprise.
Sure enough, Linglong felt a little happy.
"Oh, I didn't bring anything with me. What should I pack if I run into trouble?" She would not come back empty-handed since she was going up the mountain.
Zheng Tiansen didn't think about this.
The two of them could only go back a little ways to a safe place, and then let Linglong wait there while Tiansen ran back to get the things.
He was very quick and didn't make Linglong wait too long. He came back with a basket and a sack.
There was even a sickle and a piece of rope in the basket.
The basket was given to Linglong, and Zheng Tiansen carried the sack.
The two of them can finally go up the mountain.
Knowing that Zheng Tiansen had a weapon on his waist, Linglong was no longer so afraid of going up the mountain this time, but was only curious.
In fact, Zheng Tiansen was still a little worried about the two of them, so he didn't plan to go too deep into the mountains. He just planned to wander around the periphery.
There are generally no large wild animals around the periphery.
Because there is a military camp nearby, wild animals are aware of the danger and will not easily come down the mountain to approach crowded places.
Linglong walked along with the basket on her shoulder. She saw many things and wanted to stop to look at them.
Zheng Tiansen was quite familiar with the mountain because he had been there more than once. He also knew a lot about the things on the mountain and had a lot of experience to share with Linglong.
This was a rare opportunity for the two of them to spend time together, and in Zheng Tiansen's opinion, it was a perfect date!
As soon as she reached the mountain, Linglong discovered some wild agaricus mushrooms.
However, she didn't recognize many of them and didn't dare to pick them randomly.
After all, many mushrooms are poisonous. As far as she knows, in her past life and future lives, people in southern Yunnan were poisoned by eating mushrooms every day.
However, Zheng Tiansen knew some edible varieties and told her about them.
There were also some edible wild fruits, which Zheng Tiansen pointed out to Linglong.
In this era of material scarcity, anything edible is considered a good thing in Linglong's eyes.
Even though some of the wild fruits tasted very sour, she planned to pick some and take them back for other uses.
Sour juice contains a lot of vitamin C, which is good to drink as juice, and it is also very nutritious.
Looking here and picking there, Linglong was busy and happy.
Zheng Tiansen went up the mountain without any purpose, simply to fulfill Linglong's wish and take her to relax.
So he follows Linglong wherever she goes, and while paying attention to Linglong's life, he also always pays attention to the surrounding environment.
Although large wild animals would not roam freely on the edge of the mountain, that was not absolute. He was still very concerned about Linglong's safety.
Seeing her lively and smart appearance, Zheng Tiansen felt his heart melt, and he wanted to pin her against a tree and "bully" her several times.
At the same time, I also made up my mind to take Linglong to the mountain more often when I have the chance. It is such a great place for dating and there is no one around.
If Linglong knew what Zheng Tiansen was thinking, she wouldn't be looking forward to going up the mountain in the future.
