Chen Lie said goodbye and went home.
When Zhou Sese returned home with her three children, she saw Lan Tian blocking the way.
Lan Tian watched Zhou Sese walk up to him and hurried over, "The leader is looking for you."
Zhou Sese held her lower abdomen with one hand and said, "I just came back from the county. Let me take a break."
Lan Tian said worriedly, "Why don't you take a break? I'll go back and report to the captain, and you can go there tomorrow morning."
Zhou Sese waved her hand and said, "No, I'll send the child in and come over after drinking some water. You come in and sit down."
Diandian greeted Lantian, "Uncle Lan, come in and sit down."
Lan Tian smiled and pulled the chirp on his head. "Why haven't you gone to kindergarten in town yet? I heard that many children your age in the compound are already going there."
Diandian pouted, stomped her feet proudly, snorted heavily, turned around and ran away.
Lan Tian laughed, "Did I say something wrong?"
Xingxing explained on behalf of her sister, "Uncle Lan, don't be angry. My sister doesn't like going to kindergarten. She gets angry when anyone mentions it."
Zhou Sese finished drinking the water and walked out, "Let's go."
The three little guys watched Zhou Sese leave.
Xingxing said enthusiastically, "Yu Wenjing, let's do our homework together!"
Yu Wenjing nodded happily, "Okay."
The dot next to him: “???”
Are both my brother and sister devils?
Yu Wenjing happily invited Diandian, "Sister Diandian, do you want to join us?"
The little guy shook his head like a rattle, "No, no, I'm going to go play with Brother Chunsheng."
Diandian pulled the big yellow dog and ran away.
Two minutes later.
Chunsheng Diandian sat on the doorstep, and the big yellow dog sat between the two children.
Diandian complained, "Brother Chunsheng, are you saying my brother is a devil? When he's told to do homework, he's as happy as if he'd eaten White Rabbit candy."
Chunsheng nodded with deep feeling. "Your brother is the devil. Why would anyone like going to school and doing homework so much? Did you know? Not only is your brother learning first-grade material, he's also sometimes discussing second-grade material with Song Qingming."
Diandian: “Alas!”
Chunsheng: “Hey!”
Song Qingming came out from next door and saw two people and a dog. "Why is Diandian here?"
Diandian explained in a baby voice, and Song Qingming didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "Diandian, my mother went to my uncle's house and brought back some mung bean cakes. Do you want some?"
Diandian's eyes lit up, and she stood up quickly, forgetting even to bring Dahuang with her. "You have to eat."
Song Qingming smiled and held Diandian's hand.
Chunsheng also got up, patted his butt and followed, "I want to eat too. You only called Diandian and not me. Who is your brother, Song Qingming? You are too partial."
Song Qingming turned his head and glanced at the plump Chunsheng, "I didn't say you can't eat."
The three children arrived at the political commissar's house.
Liu Hongyan couldn't close her mouth and picked up Diandian. "Auntie will take you to eat mung bean cake. Has our Diandian grown taller and heavier?"
She nodded her hands, covered her mouth and laughed, "My mom said I grew five centimeters taller!"
Liu Hongyan pretended to be surprised, "Is it really that amazing? Diandian is amazing!"
There is no child who doesn’t like to be praised. The little guy smiled so hard that his teeth were showing and hugged Liu Hongyan’s shoulders obediently.
The soft and sweet little one nestled in Liu Hongyan's arms. Liu Hongyan was jealous and envious. When Qingming was born, she had a difficult delivery and probably had a bad body. So Qingming was already eight years old and there was still no news. She wanted a soft little girl all the time. Every time she saw Diandian, she liked her very much.
Liu Hongyan carried Diandian into the house, put her on a small stool, and turned around to take the mung bean cake.
I gave one piece to Chunsheng first.
Then she stuffed two pieces into Diandian's two little hands and said, "Diandian, Auntie likes you so much. When you grow up, will you be my daughter-in-law?"
Diandian asked curiously, "Can I eat mung bean cake?"
Liu Hongyan laughed heartily, clapped her hands and said, "As long as you are willing to be my daughter-in-law, I will make you endless mung bean cakes every day."
Diandian chuckled, "Okay then."
Chunsheng was watching the fun from the side, "Song Qingming, your mother has found a wife for you."
Song Qingming: "Don't talk nonsense."
Chunsheng made a face and said, "Auntie, I also want to eat mung bean cakes every day. Can I be your daughter-in-law?"
Liu Hongyan: “…”
——
Head of the group's office.
Lan Tian got Zhou Sese a cup of hot water and then left.
The regiment commander sat motionless on the sofa. After a long while, he slowly raised his eyes, which were bloodshot, as if he hadn't slept for a long time. "Comrade Zhou, I have good news and bad news. Which one do you want to hear first?"
Zhou Sese: "I don't really want to listen."
The leader coughed lightly and said, "Then I'll tell you the bad news first."
Said.
The team leader bent down, took out an envelope from under the coffee table and handed it over.
Zhou Sese lowered her eyes and saw only two words written in neat pen on the envelope: suicide note.
Zhou Sese frowned and did not move.
The head of the group passed the letter half an inch towards Zhou Sese and said, "Take a look."
Zhou Sese laughed, "Why should I look at this?"
A hint of sadness flashed in the captain's eyes. "This... was sent over from the front. Every one... was sent back. This is from Sheng Xijiang."
Zhou Sese laughed and shook her head, "How is that possible?"
The head of the group helped her open the envelope, unfolded the thin suicide note inside, and placed it in Zhou Sese's palm.
