“Master Lu has arranged everything, but Comrade Jiang has been injured.
Our people have escorted Madam Jiang all the way there, so there shouldn't be any major problems."
In the study, Lu Cizhou was sitting at his desk, writing something on a document seriously.
In front of him stood a security guard with an upright posture and meticulous work ethic.
After listening to what the other party said, Lu Cizhou briefly stopped writing with the pen in his hand, raised his head, and said with a slight sternness.
"Comrade Jiang is a meritorious official who has made significant contributions to Xinjiang in my country over the years while hiding his identity.
The award for his return must be grand and dignified. Furthermore, Du is getting older, so we need to consider his employment options after his career transition."
Lu Cizhou said these things righteously as if this person was not his father-in-law at all.
But his words were meant to take credit for his father-in-law.
The guard standing in front understood the meaning of the other party's words and saluted seriously.
A quick answer. "Yes!"
"Well, go down."
Lu Cizhou was the only one left in the empty study. He then curled the corners of his lips, lowered his head in satisfaction and continued to work.
At the same time, in Lop Nur, Xinjiang, my country.
The wind and sand blew across the entire base, which was desolate and harsh.
However, there were many pedestrians moving around the entire base, back and forth, busy yet orderly.
Li's mother took a long train ride, then a long bus ride, and finally took a vehicle specially provided by the army for transportation. After several days of long journey, she finally arrived here.
As the car drove farther and farther away, the harsh conditions here made Li's mother feel sad.
For many years, she couldn't even believe that her husband was still alive.
Living in such a desolate, harsh, remote and desolate place.
The young man driving the transport truck was a man in his twenties.
His car was carrying food for the entire base and all the staff for the week.
Looking at the aunt sitting next to him with a sad face.
The young man felt sad too, and couldn't help but think of his mother at home, so he spoke to comfort her.
"Auntie, we'll be there soon, don't worry, Uncle Jiang is fine.
His injuries are almost healed, and if nothing unexpected happens this time, he can go home with you."
In the bumpy car, Li's mother looked at the young boy in front of her and caught a glimpse of his dry, chapped lips.
Seeing the thick sand on my face, I couldn't help but feel a little distressed.
"Son, you must be tired after all this driving. Have a drink of water."
The young soldier smiled, waved his hands, and started driving seriously.
"Auntie, I'm not thirsty. I drank a lot of water at the supply station.
You keep it for yourself. I'm young and healthy, so I'm not thirsty at all."
Looking at the other person's young appearance, Mother Li couldn't help but think of her husband who had also been here for who knows how many years.
"Young comrades, what are you doing here? It's such a remote place, why don't you move to a more lively place?"
After all, Li's mother came from a humble background, so it was understandable that she said these things.
She didn't understand the confidentiality regulations, let alone these things in the military.
I just feel that this place is too harsh and deserted, so there is no need to stay here.
Originally, this issue was extremely sensitive, and one could even be arrested if one did not speak clearly.
But the young comrade obviously knew that he was just giving a heads-up and was aware of the other party's situation, so he didn't take it to heart.
Just answering, but still leak-proof.
"Auntie, this is all confidential and cannot be disclosed, but we have successfully completed the first phase of the mission.
Uncle Jiang, because of his injury, he has been granted special permission to go home. This is a good thing, so you don't have to worry anymore."
Mother Li felt a little uncomfortable when she heard this.
When she learned the news about her husband, Li's mother was in disbelief.
Didn’t we say back then that this guy was sacrificed and compensated?
Because of this, the family is taken care of more.
After so many years, he came back to life without any news.
This beast still misses home. Such a living person has been away for so many years and there is not even a letter from him.
When she thought of the suffering she, an orphan and a widow, had endured over the years, Li's mother couldn't help but blame the other party for being a cruel person.
However, when I received the call from above, they explained that this was a special mission and no leaks were allowed.
As long as the country needs them, their personal grievances are nothing.
The only thing that worried Li's mother was that she heard the other party was seriously injured.
There was no way I could continue working.
This news made Li's mother so worried that she couldn't sleep.
I wanted to ask for more clarification, but the other party shut me up on the grounds that the secret could not be leaked.
Mother Li felt upset, but she also understood her husband's responsibilities.
But I understand it, but only I know how it feels.
The young comrade glanced at Li's mother, his eyes full of envy.
"Auntie, don't worry, and don't blame Uncle Jiang.
The country needs us and we have no choice but to respond. It's not just him, everyone in our base hasn't contacted their families for several years.
It’s not that we don’t miss home, it’s that we have more responsibilities.
Now that you can be reunited with your family, we are all happy.”
Mother Li's tears suddenly fell, and she quickly wiped them with her hands, not wanting to embarrass herself in front of her younger generation.
But he still couldn't help but complain about the wind and sand.
"Then don't tell me he's dead. If I couldn't help myself and remarried all these years, how would I face him now?
