The people on the bus were also surprised to see Shen Qingmiao and his sister. How could fate be so strange? However, neither Shen Qingmiao, Shen Jianmin, nor the mother and son in the bus seemed to have any intention of greeting each other. It was as if they hadn't seen each other. After getting on the bus, they sat in their own seats without disturbing each other.
Even the young soldier who came to pick people up seemed to sense the strange atmosphere in the air.
Adhering to the principle of saying less and making fewer mistakes, the young soldier came to the driving position and said to them, "Everyone, get ready. We are off."
Then he focused on driving without saying a word.
There were strangers around, so Shen Qingmiao and Shen Jianmin didn't say anything after getting in the car. They also kept their original intention of asking about their second brother's health condition to themselves.
I plan to ask after I get off the bus.
The car was silent all the way and soon left the provincial capital and headed for the suburbs.
After a long time, they finally arrived at the military camp. Both parties, seemingly patient, packed up their belongings and got out as soon as the car stopped. The mother and son got out and walked over to the man who had come to pick them up, chatting and laughing as they left. Before leaving, the woman glanced towards Shen Qingmiao and the others.
Shen Qingmiao clearly saw the jealous look in the woman's eyes.
The young soldier wanted to help carry the bag, "Let me help you." As he said that, he took the bag from Shen Qingmiao's hand.
"I'll take you to your accommodation first, and then I'll take you to the hospital to visit the platoon leader tomorrow."
Shen Qingmiao finally couldn't hold back her worries and asked, "I want to ask, how is my second brother now?"
Shen Jianmin also pricked up his ears and listened, as this was also his concern.
The young soldier showed his big white teeth and smiled and said, "The platoon leader has woken up. I don't know the details."
"That's good!" Shen Qingmiao and Shen Jianmin both breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that their second brother's condition might not be as bad as they imagined.
At least he's awake, so I guess his life isn't in danger.
After learning that Shen Jianjun's life was not in danger, Shen Qingmiao and Shen Jianmin felt like they had put down a huge stone in their hearts. They felt a lot more relaxed and the worry on their faces finally dissipated.
The young soldier led Shen Qingmiao and Shen Jianmin to the door of a room. After opening the door and helping them put their things away, the young soldier handed them the key and said, "You two will stay here for the time being tonight. I will come to pick you up and take you to the hospital tomorrow."
"Okay, thank you, thank you for your help." Shen Qingmiao thanked.
The little soldier smiled shyly, as if he was still not used to Shen Qingmiao's gratitude. "No trouble, no trouble. I'll come over tomorrow."
Shen Qingmiao sent the little soldier to the door before turning back to the room.
The room was small, but it contained two simple beds with bedding already spread out. Shen Qingmiao saw that they were brand new and clean. There was also a small, separate bathroom in the room where one could take a shower.
The brother and sister, whose backs and waists ached after a day of traveling in the car, just wanted to have a good sleep so that they could go to the hospital to visit their second brother tomorrow.
"I'll go get some hot water." Shen Jianmin said.
When the little soldier left, he told the brother and sister where to get hot water.
After saying that, Shen Jianmin took the basin and went out.
Shen Qingmiao in the room was sorting things out. After taking out the items they needed for the evening, she closed the bag again.
Shen Qingmiao finished tidying up, and Shen Jianmin returned with the hot water. The brother and sister washed up quickly and went to sleep in their respective beds.
Shen Qingmiao thought he would have insomnia and have difficulty falling asleep, but unexpectedly he fell asleep not long after lying down.
Maybe I was too tired today.
Soon, the room became quiet and silent.
Wu Chunhua followed behind Li Hu, holding his youngest son in his arms and his eldest daughter by his hand. Having not seen his children for a long time, Li Hu smiled warmly at the siblings, asking about their lives at home along the way.
He didn't notice the unusual expression on his wife's face behind him.
"Dad, who are those two people who just came with us?" Wu Chunhua asked Li Hu with a little trepidation in his heart.
She was afraid that she would cause trouble for Li Hu, so she was determined to stay here and not go back.
If Li Hu gets punished, she'll be finished.
Li Hu didn't notice his wife's thoughts and said frankly, "It seems to be Platoon Leader Shen's family, coming to take care of the injured Platoon Leader Shen."
"Oh, so that's how it is." Now Wu Chunhua felt relieved.
"What's wrong?" Li Hu asked.
"It's okay, I'm just asking."
Relieved, Wu Chunhua immediately felt happy. Knowing that the brother and sister could not cause much harm to him, Wu Chunhua no longer took them to heart.
She came here this time with the purpose of joining the army.
She couldn't let Li Hu drive her back anyway, she had to stay here. On the way here, Wu Chunhua had warned his son and daughter to be obedient and try to stay here.
Her son and daughter also readily agreed to this.
Compared to going back to their hometown, they would rather stay with their father.
Shen Qingmiao and Shen Jianmin slept through the night without a dream. After waking up, the brother and sister washed up, had breakfast, and waited for the little soldier to arrive.
So we can take them to the hospital.
Not long after, there was a knock on the door. Hearing the sound, the brother and sister guessed that it was the little soldier who had arrived.
Shen Jianmin quickly walked over to open the door, and saw that the person standing at the door was the little soldier from last night.
"Come in and sit down." Shen Jianmin invited.
After the young soldier came in, he put the things he was carrying on the table and said, "This is the breakfast I brought for you. Eat it while it's hot."
"I'm so sorry to bother you. When are we going to the hospital?" Compared to eating, Shen Qingmiao wanted to know when to go to the hospital. She couldn't wait to see her second brother.
Shen Qingmiao and Shen Jianmin each took out a steamed bun and started eating.
"We'll go over after you finish breakfast."
In order to get there quickly, Shen Qingmiao and Shen Jianmin quickly finished a steamed bun and said, "Let's go."
The hospital was a bit far from the army, so they drove there.
Shen Jianjun, who had regained consciousness in the hospital, learned that his younger siblings were coming. His first thought was whether they would encounter any trouble and whether it was safe for them to come by train. Only when he learned that they had finally arrived did Shen Jianjun feel relieved.
Knowing that they would come today, Shen Jianjun woke up early in the morning.
Lying on the hospital bed and waiting silently.
Soon, Shen Qingmiao and Shen Jianmin arrived at the hospital. After getting off the car, the young soldier led them to Shen Jianjun's ward. The hospital was bustling with doctors, patients, and their families.
When you walk into the hospital, the first thing you smell is the smell of disinfectant, which makes you feel a little depressed.
