When Sheng Yi heard her say that, he thought she was joking with him and didn't think much of it because she was not feeling well.
"Okay, we might be able to go back to the team in a while."
Zhu Qinghao was checking the soup in the pot when she heard his words and turned her head in surprise.
She knew that for Sheng Yi to specifically mention it, it couldn't be just a temporary trip back for two days, so it could be ruled out that he was going back specifically for Lu Zheng's matter.
"us?"
Seeing that she had grasped the key point immediately, Sheng Yi smiled and walked over to pull her into his arms, resting his chin on the top of her head.
"Yes, that way, you can stay with me and also visit your family from time to time. How about that? Aren't you happy?"
Upon hearing this, Zhu Qinghao felt her heart skip a beat. She quickly pried Sheng Yi's hand away, turned around, and asked:
"What did you do? Didn't I tell you not to transfer back? Did you secretly apply for a transfer there behind my back?"
Sheng Yi immediately put on an innocent and aggrieved expression and said:
"I'm innocent, honey! You have to believe me. I really didn't apply. How could I not listen to you?"
Zhu Qinghao ignored his attempt to laugh it off and said seriously:
"Then explain to me clearly what happened. Why are you suddenly being transferred back, and why, by such a coincidence, not to the east, not to the west, but just back?"
Zhu Qinghao's "I'm not easy to coax" expression amused Sheng Yi, but he dared not hide anything anymore, for fear that Zhu Qinghao would really get angry.
"Okay, okay, I'll tell you, but don't get excited."
"That's right, just like you said, it's not necessarily a coincidence. People might be transferred from all directions, but my teacher cares about me. Knowing that you'd have to go back sooner or later, he simply sent me to Anshi."
This is kind of like giving me a back door, since other people can't choose for themselves, and there just happens to be a place very close to you among my choices. Do you understand now?
Knowing that Sheng Yi wouldn't lie to her, Zhu Qinghao believed his explanation, but only asked one question:
"So this transfer must be temporary, right? When are you going back to the army?"
Sheng Yi smiled and pinched Zhu Qinghao's cheek.
"Whose wife is so clever? I only said half of what I wanted to say, and she already guessed the rest. Oh, it's my wife. She's really amazing!"
Zhu Qing chuckled and gently punched him.
"Stop talking nonsense. How long can you actually stay over there?"
Sheng Yi gently grasped his fist, her smile undiminished.
"Three years, maybe two, but at least two years."
The time wasn't exactly short, but for this young couple, it really wasn't much.
Zhu Qinghao silently calculated that it was 1972 now, and if they counted two or three years, it would be 1974 or 1975 before Sheng Yi returned to the military hospital.
If everything goes smoothly, the Zhu family can prepare to leave Hongshan Brigade, so in terms of timing, it seems to be going quite well.
If it takes even longer, like five or ten years, then that would be a real problem.
"So, how much longer until we leave? Before we go, is there anything we should do with Lin Peng...?"
