A few young people went out together. What is the most iconic building in Beijing? Of course, it is the Forbidden City. Besides the Forbidden City, the place that people long to visit is Tiananmen Square. Not only in this era, but even in the future, it seems that every Chinese has a complex in their hearts. In this life, they must visit the capital, visit Tiananmen Square, and see the magnificent sight of the great man watching the red flag fluttering.
Su Qingyun took everyone to Tiananmen Square. As soon as they arrived, everyone was shocked by the grandeur and atmosphere here and stared in amazement.
"This is a scene that many people want to see but can't." Su Congjun sighed, unwilling to look away.
"That's not true," Su Congwu said, not blinking. "If I go back to our factory and tell them we saw Tiananmen Square, I wonder how many people will envy me?"
Su Congwen didn't say anything, but his eyes were full of surprise and admiration.
Su Qingyun had been observing him carefully. She said to Ji Yue, "I'm going to talk to my second brother."
"Okay." Ji Yue nodded. He knew Su Qingyun's plan.
Su Qingyun walked to Su Congwen's side.
"Second brother."
"Hmm?" Su Congwen turned his head. "What's wrong?"
"Look there." Su Qingyun pointed in a direction, a place opposite Tiananmen Square.
Su Congwen looked in the direction of her finger and saw a huge monument a few hundred meters away with a few large gold foil characters written on it: The people's heroes will live forever!
That is...
Monument to the People's Heroes!
After seeing the big words clearly, Su Congwen was shocked.
He couldn't help but take a step forward and walked towards the monument, and Su Qingyun followed him silently.
As you get closer, the monument appears even taller and more impressive. Made entirely of granite, it is about ten meters high and weighs about 60 tons. It was built by China in the late 1950s to commemorate revolutionary martyrs in modern history.
The back of the stele is made up of 7 pieces of stone, and contains a 150-character inscription in small regular script drafted and written by two great men.
Su Congwen stood there, staring blankly, completely mesmerized.
His eyes revealed a variety of complex emotions including pain, sadness, and nostalgia.
"Brother, did you see that?" Su Qingyun stood beside him and whispered, "All those martyrs and heroes who sacrificed their lives and left will be remembered forever. They will remember everything they did, the blood they shed, the flesh and blood they sacrificed, their tenacious spirit, and their unyielding will."
Su Congwen was stunned and didn't say anything.
"Look." Su Qingyun pointed at the people in the square. "Look at them. Everyone who comes here stops and stares. With every new person, every new look, their achievements and deeds will be remembered and discussed again."
"Look across here," Su Qingyun said, pointing to the portrait in the square. "He is also forever watching these heroes who have sacrificed their lives for their country and their people. No one will ever forget them."
"Just like the words written here, the people's heroes will live forever."
Su Qingyun said a lot of things. She knew that her second brother had never gotten over that hurdle in his heart. Although he had returned, his heart seemed to still be on the battlefield filled with smoke. The departure of his comrades was an eternal pain in his heart, but if he kept indulging in the pain and could not get out of it, it would hurt himself.
Therefore, Su Qingyun's purpose today was to bring his second brother to see the Monument to the People's Heroes, to let him know that not only he, but millions of people in this world will remember his comrades who shed blood and sacrificed their lives. He also wanted him to get out of the pain and look forward.
Su Congwen didn't know when he was already in tears.
He said in a hoarse voice, "Thank you, Yunyun."
At this point, how could Su Congwen not know that these were all good intentions of his sister?
He raised his head, looked at the Monument to the People's Heroes, then looked at the huge portrait opposite, and the people who were visiting and gazing at it in the square, and suddenly he smiled through his tears.
Yunyun is right. The sacrifices of his comrades were never in vain. Someone will always remember them, this generation, the next generation, and thousands of generations to come. Their achievements will never be erased, and they will be immortal in people's hearts.
"What are you two whispering about?" Su Congwu ran over and said, "Can't you tell us?"
"No." Su Qingyun said deliberately, "This is a secret between my second brother and me."
"Yes, this is the secret between Yunyun and me." Su Congwen also agreed with a smile.
"You two little brats, you're amazing. You even have a secret behind my back." Su Congwu pretended to be angry and said, "No, I must know what you said today." He pretended not to see his second brother's red eyes.
"If you don't want to tell me, then I won't tell you." Su Qingyun made a face and ran away quickly, "Ayue, Sister Sisi, Sister Shuhui, let's go somewhere else."
"Hey, this girl! She is still like this even after getting married. She is not stable at all." Su Congwu scolded with a smile.
Su Congwen looked at him with a sidelong glance, somewhat amused, "Have you become so steady?"
"How am I unstable?" Su Congwu asked back.
"Okay, okay, you are the most steady, you are as steady as Mount Tai, okay?" Su Congwen said as he walked.
"No, explain it clearly!" Su Congwu refused to accept and chased after him.
Su Congwen listened to the chattering sounds around him, looked at Yunyun in front of him, and smiled. This smile was beautiful and pure, as if it was oblivious to the haze of pain.
Those pains may not be healed, but they will sink little by little over time and finally turn into nutrients for his progress and growth.

The young people went out as if they were having a blast, playing everywhere until dark before returning home. The meal was ready at home, and they were just waiting for the children to come back.
"You guys, come wash your hands and have dinner," Qin Ying called out. "You've been playing so long now and just come back. You really forgot the time. Look at Sui Huan and Chun Chun, how well behaved they are."
The two children were already sitting at the table, waiting for the meal to start.
“Here it comes!”
“Right away!”
Everyone quickly washed their hands and sat down.
As soon as he sat down, there was a knock on the Su family's door. It was Qin Xun.
"Uncle, why are you here?" Su Qingyun asked.
"I'm taking a flight back to Hong Kong City tomorrow afternoon. Before I leave, I came to see you and tell you something," Qin Xun said.
Su Qingyun was stunned. He didn't expect his uncle to come to say goodbye. "Are you in such a hurry?"
"Yeah." Qin Xun nodded, "There's something to deal with in Hong Kong City."
He should have gone back a long time ago, but because of Su Qingyun's wedding, Qin Xun had been delaying his departure. Now things can't be delayed any longer, and he must rush back.
