When Ji Qingzhou first spoke, he was still a little hesitant.
But when the last note falls, all that remains is full of determination.
Whether it was to stay with Xie Yanbei or to provide medical support to the People's Liberation Army, Ji Qingzhou had no choice but to do it.
She was already thinking about how to say goodbye to her family.
Mr. Peng stroked his beard and looked at his favorite student, his eyes full of satisfaction.
"You are worthy of being my student, Qingzhou. You have always done better than I expected."
"Although the border is very close to where the fighting is taking place, there's no need to be too nervous. After all, we're not professional military doctors. Even if we were to go there to provide support, we probably wouldn't be sent to the front lines."
Ji Qingzhou was a little surprised: "Don't we need to support the military doctors on the front line? Isn't it a time when we are short of manpower now?"
"We won't be used unless necessary."
Mr. Peng explained to her.
"Most of the time, we're helping the people in distress at the border. It's already difficult for them to live in a place where there's constant fighting, and they're also at risk of being hit by artillery shells at any time."
"Ordinary residents don't receive professional training like soldiers, and their physical fitness is relatively poor. Our mission is to protect them as much as possible and minimize casualties outside the battlefield."
Ji Qingzhou listened carefully to Mr. Peng's explanation and kept every word he said in mind.
At the same time, I have a clearer understanding of the responsibilities I am about to face.
It just so happened that Mr. Zeng had not left yet and was talking to the village chief Sun Aiguo outside.
Ji Qingzhou discussed it with Mr. Peng and decided to go out and express his attitude to them without further delay.
"Master Zeng, Village Chief, my master and I have decided to return to the capital together."
Returning to the capital means preparing to go to the border.
Ji Qingzhou is so young, but I didn’t expect him to have such awareness.
Mr. Zeng was surprised and couldn't help but look at her a few more times, then smiled and praised:
"Old Peng has a good apprentice. Little girl, what's your name?"
Ji Qingzhou looked straight into his eyes frankly and firmly.
"My name is Ji Qingzhou, and I'm an educated youth who went to the countryside from Beijing."
"Surname Ji?"
This surname is very special in the Beijing Military Region, and it immediately reminded Mr. Zeng of something.
"Are you from the Ji family? Old Master Ji is your grandfather, and Old Master Cao is your grandfather?"
Ji Qingzhou said calmly, "Yes."
"So they are descendants of martyrs. No wonder they have such high awareness."
Old Master Zeng couldn't help but sigh a few times. After learning about Ji Qingzhou's life experience, he had a better impression of this brave little girl.
"It's a good thing that you're willing to go to the battlefield. Just relax. The situation on the border shouldn't be as serious as we imagined."
at this time.
People from the military in the capital received news that the original plan had changed and the archaeologists had finished their work and would return today.
At the same time, due to changes in the border situation, the People's Liberation Army was also notified to return to its base urgently and wait for deployment.
Instructions were issued one after another, and there seemed to be a sense of urgency in the air.
All the soldiers packed their bags and got ready to go as soon as they received the order.
After Ji Qingzhou and Mr. Peng received the news, they came out of the clinic and saw that the People's Liberation Army had already gathered.
Just when I was feeling somewhat surprised, I heard two beeps from the loudspeaker on the roadside electric pole, and the voice of the village chief came from it.
"Dear villagers, due to the tense situation on the front lines, the PLA soldiers who came to support our village have all been fully equipped and will return to the capital today. Upon receiving the transfer order, they will rush to the border to provide support. At the same time, the archaeologists will also return with them."
"They have made indelible contributions to Jingxin Commune and Baiyun Village. They have also put their own safety at risk to protect the motherland. Let us pay the highest respects to our PLA comrades."
Upon hearing this, the villagers on the street looked very solemn.
Unexpectedly, the war that spread across this land had just subsided when it showed signs of reigniting.
Many of the elderly people in the village are eyewitnesses of the war and often tell stories about what happened in that turbulent era.
Through what they have seen and heard, everyone has a deep understanding of war.
When we think of the young faces of the People's Liberation Army, who may very likely bleed and sacrifice on the battlefield in the near future, everyone feels very sad.
"Alas, I don't know when this war will end. This damn troublemaker really can't bear to see us get any better!"
Sister Wang and Sister Li immediately thought of Xie Yanbei, who had been busy with the army during this period.
"The People's Liberation Army is returning to Beijing, so shouldn't Yanbei go with them?"
"He and Qingzhou have only been married for a few days, and they're separating again. God is really blind."
The aunts gathered together to talk about what they heard on the radio, and they felt very sorry for the ill-fated couple.
Ye Lanqing was busy picking wild vegetables in the fields. When he heard the broadcast, he was so anxious that he almost fell down.
"Why so sudden..."
She gritted her teeth and didn't even bother to pick up the small hoe in her hand. She just put it on the edge of the field, picked up the basket and hurried home.
I was afraid that I would be too late and miss the chance to see Xie Yanbei for the last time.
*
After Ji Qingzhou finished explaining the work in his hands to Mr. Peng, he rushed home without stopping.
As soon as I reached the door of my house, I met Ye Lanqing coming down from the mountain.
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law looked at each other, and before they could even say anything, the gate to the yard next to them creaked open.
Xie Yanbei came out with a simple bag, obviously ready to set off.
Seeing the two people standing at the door, he paused slightly.
His eyes were inevitably sad, but he still suppressed his reluctance and just called them one by one.
"Mom, Qingzhou, we are about to set off."
Ji Qingzhou had seen him packing his things and knew that he had prepared the luggage long ago.
She and Ye Lanqing were both ready to part ways.
But when this moment really came, I couldn't help but feel tears in my eyes.
Afraid that Xie Yanbei would see and worry, the two of them tried hard not to let their tears fall. After walking forward and hugging him gently, they only said.
"Don't worry about things at home. We will take good care of ourselves and wait for you to come back."
Xie Yanbei looked at his mother and wife guiltily and nodded slightly.
"Um."
From the moment he joined the army, he had already given himself completely to the country.
Even though he was reluctant to leave his home, he had to return to the army because his motherland needed him right now.
Ye Lanqing wiped his eyes gently, and walked into the yard first, using the excuse of going to deal with wild vegetables.
Ji Qingzhou and Xie Yanbei knew that she was intentionally leaving herself some space to be alone, so they did not refuse.
