Old Master Qi patted Qi Yalan's back gently and said, "That's good. Learning is a must. No matter what we say, we will let you grow through actual combat. But look at you, you've lost weight these past few days. You must be very tired."
As he spoke, his eyes fell on Qi Yalan's arm, "Why is it injured again?"
Yi Yalan said nonchalantly, "Grandpa, it's okay. It's just a minor injury. I accidentally scratched it when I got in the car."
"You should be more careful in the future." Old Man Zhu tapped her forehead and gave her a scolding that was half stern and half loving.
Qi Yalan listened with a smile, not angry at all, "I understand, I understand."
At this time, Fu Yunzheng walked over at the right time, smiled and greeted the old man politely and respectfully, "Hello, Grandpa, I'm sorry to bother you so late."
Old Master Qi noticed the tall young man standing behind his granddaughter and said, "Oh, it's Yun Zheng."
He looked at her, then at Qi Yalan, and understood a little more. "You were the one who sent my little girl back? Thank you so much."
Fu Yunzheng hurriedly said, "Grandpa Yi, you're too polite. It's my duty. This time we went on a mission with Comrade Xiao Yi and the others, and we came back too late, so I drove her back."
Afraid that the old lady would think too much, he wanted to explain so as not to cause unnecessary trouble to the girl.
But Grandpa Yi didn't care. "Forget it, forget it. As long as the people come back safely, that's all that matters."
As the old man spoke, he looked his granddaughter up and down, and was relieved only after confirming that she was fine.
Although he didn't say it, the old man actually knew that his granddaughter had gone on a mission, and he never let it go.
Yi Yalan was touched and felt guilty for her grandfather worrying about her at his age. She quickly tried to divert the old man's attention, "Grandpa, let's not just talk. Captain Fu, thank you for sending me back. Come in and sit down."
Fu Yunzheng felt a little embarrassed, "Well... it's too late to disturb you..."
The old man smiled amiably and immediately pulled the man aside. "If there's anything wrong with disturbing you, please come in and sit down. Don't stand at the door. It's a good opportunity for you to chat with an old man like me for a while."
Fu Yunzheng had no choice but to follow him into the house with a smile.
The old-fashioned clock in the living room ticked away in the corner, its sound steady and rhythmic. On the wall next to it hung several photos of Mr. Wu in military uniforms, photos of him in his youth with his comrades.
He casually looked around and saw that Old Man Zhu had already pulled Fu Yunzheng to sit on the sofa. "Come on, come on, tell me how your mission went. I heard that many people were injured."
Seeing that her grandfather was in high spirits, Yi Yalan knew that he must be bored at home during his vacation, so she didn't disturb him. She just smiled and shook her head, poured them two glasses of water, and went back to her room to get some clothes and wash up.
Fu Yunzheng sat quietly on the sofa over there, answering him seriously, "Don't worry, Grandpa. This mission went smoothly without any danger. There were quite a few injured people, but they all received timely medical treatment. The seriously injured were also properly accommodated and rescued, and are not in danger of death. So no one died during this mission."
Only then did Mr. Qi feel relieved and nodded: "That's good, you did a good job. But you must also pay attention to your own safety in the future, as your family will always be worried."
Fu Yunzheng listened carefully and nodded repeatedly: "I am Mingqi's grandfather, don't worry."
"Old Master, what do I have to worry about? I'm just worried that your old man Fu might be worried about his eldest grandson. It's only because you personally sent my Xiaolan home tonight that I showed so much concern for you."
Just as he was thinking about it, he heard Fu Yunzheng continue: "By the way, Grandpa Xiao, Comrade Xiao Yalan performed very well in this mission. You can rest assured. The superiors should have given her individual recognition and encouragement."
When Grandpa heard this, he smiled even more happily, and said with great relief: "That's good, Yun Zheng, if my granddaughter goes on a mission in the future, she will inevitably run into you. You are an old man in the barracks, so please take good care of these young people."
Fu Yunzheng was almost choked by these words. Elder? Junior?
Is this used to describe him and Yi Yalan? Isn't what Yi Grandpa used to describe a little exaggerated?
The smile on the man's lips froze a little, "I... I will definitely do it, don't worry, Grandpa."
At this time, Qi Yalan poked her head out from inside and asked, "What are you two talking about me?"
Grandpa Yi didn't even turn his head, he just chuckled, "Don't worry, Yun Zheng is praising you."
