After walking for a while, they found that they were not heading out of the city. Zhong Yuxiu released her mental power and discovered that the road they were heading to was actually the provincial capital Z.
"Let's go borrow a car first. The journey is a bit far, and it may be a bit difficult for Comrade Zhong to walk. Driving back is the best option." Captain Yu said.
Why walk when you can take a car?
Zhong Yuxiu smiled and said, "Okay, Captain Yu's arrangements are very thoughtful."
Captain Yu: You weren’t so happy just now.
Zhong Yuxiu's emotions directly expressed her thoughts. Captain Yu led the group to the provincial capital. "Comrade Zhong, please wait here for a while. I'll go borrow a car."
"Sure, Captain Yu, go ahead and get busy."
Captain Yu turned and walked towards the government office. Zhong Yuxiu watched him go in and then turned to look at Mr. Wang. "Mr. Wang, are you okay?"
The walk was not short, and the old lady was old, and her legs and feet were not good; but her spirit was still good, and she still had the same concerns.
"Comrade Zhong, I'm fine, just taking a walk." Mr. Wang waved his hands repeatedly.
"Then you're in good health." Mr. Wang beamed with joy at these heartfelt words. "Being in good health isn't the only thing I'm talking about. I also have to thank our country for developing the repair fluid. My wife and I have both used it. The previous repair fluid wasn't very effective and was a bit expensive. The improved one is really effective and affordable, and only needs one dose. I'm in such good health thanks to the repair fluid."
"By the way, my husband used to be in very poor health, but now he can live a normal life." Although his legs and feet cannot move, at least he is no longer struggling to survive.
Zhong Yuxiu glanced at the old lady's legs but didn't linger on them for long.
"Mr. Wang, Mrs. Wang, can I ask how your legs became like this?"
Mr. Wang's face changed, but the old lady raised her hand to comfort him, "It's okay, there's nothing I can't say."
Mr. Wang opened his mouth but said nothing in the end; then he turned to ask her.
"Comrade Zhong, why are you asking this?"
"I'm just asking out of curiosity. It's okay if it's inconvenient for you to answer." It's not necessary to know.
"It's nothing inconvenient," the old lady continued. "You know, we were among them. My leg was trampled by a mad cow, and many bones were broken. No one took it seriously at the time. Although I survived, I'm crippled and there's no way I can recover."
The broken bones could not be reconnected in time, and the medical conditions were not there at the time; now it is really too late, and the bones have been connected to the flesh.
Zhong Yuxiu was also helpless. "Old lady, please take good care of yourself and go out for a walk when you have nothing to do. It's good enough to be able to spend your old age with Mr. Wang. I don't know how to comfort you, please forgive me."
"I don't mind, I don't mind. What's there to mind? I've lived like this for many years, I'm used to it. Apart from not being able to go out, there's nothing wrong with it." The old lady seemed not to mind, but from the subtle details, her facial expression was somewhat lost.
Seeing this, Zhong Yuxiu changed the subject, "Old man and old lady, please hold on a little longer. We'll be safe once we get into the camp."
"This is also very safe, isn't it?" The old lady did not feel any sense of danger or opportunity, but was the calmest.
Zhong Yuxiu: ...
The old lady was gifted, and she didn't feel any sense of danger.
The awkwardness continued until a Hongqi car drove out and stopped in front of Zhong Yuxiu; Captain Yu opened the car door, got out, and opened the back door for her.
"Comrade Zhong, please."
"Okay." Zhong Yuxiu bent down and got in. The car only had five seats, including the driver's seat.
Then Fang Guozhong put the old lady in, and then the old man. The three seats in the back were full. Captain Yu said, "Comrade Gu, Comrade Fang, there are too many people. The car is too small to accommodate so many people. Who will follow the car?"
The remaining one had no choice but to take the bus with the other three and then walk back to the camp.
"Comrade Gu goes, he is careful." Fang Guozhong took the initiative to give the opportunity to Gu Lingguo.
Gu Lingguo was used to it. He walked to the passenger seat, opened the door and got in.
Captain Yu winked at his three teammates, then turned around and got into the car. After driving out of the provincial capital, the three teammates took Fang Guozhong and took two buses before arriving at the foot of the mountain outside the camp.
Zhong Yuxiu and others arrived at the camp early. The road was very bumpy. People who were not prone to motion sickness were feeling very uncomfortable at this moment. The most important thing was that the road up the mountain was rugged and bumpy. The old lady was the first to lose patience and vomited on the way.
Someone was vomiting, and Zhong Yuxiu was also uncomfortable, especially the sound and smell of vomiting; she felt terrible. The old lady was closest to her and felt increasingly uncomfortable. Fortunately, she arrived at the camp just as she was about to vomit.
Zhong Yuxiu mobilized her mental strength to calm the strange emotions in her body, and she wanted to comfort the old lady along the way but she didn't have the energy to do so.
Seeing that they were really uncomfortable, Captain Yu shook his head secretly and arranged them to an empty yard in the army; they had come all the way here, so there was no problem in arranging them in the same yard.
When I entered the yard, it was very clean, as if someone had specially cleaned it; then I went to the bedroom and saw that it was also clean, with clean bedding.
Captain Yu followed her and said, "Comrade Zhong, the higher-ups only heard that you and two other comrades were coming, so they prepared three new quilts. The two elderly people can only use the old quilts from the logistics department. I wonder if they mind."
"Comrade Fang and I can sleep in the same room, and let the two old people live in one room." Gu Lingguo said.
Captain Yu asked, "Comrade Fang, is this okay?"
"Sure, we all live together, and the location closest to Comrade Zhong will be fine. It will be convenient for us to move together, and it will also be easier to protect Comrade Zhong."
"Is that so?" Captain Yu looked at him and nodded. "Alright, that's the arrangement. If Comrade Fang has any objections, you can tell me directly. I'll arrange for the logistics staff to send over a set of quilts."
Gu Lingguo nodded slightly, "Okay."
"Then you guys take a rest first. They should be here for more than half an hour. You guys take a rest and I will bring you dinner." Captain Yu said.
Suppressing her physical discomfort, Zhong Yuxiu said, "Then I'll trouble you, Captain."
"It's not a big deal, it's all my responsibility. You guys take a rest, I'm leaving first."
"Okay, Captain Yu, take care."
After seeing Captain Yu off, Zhong Yuxiu walked out of the bedroom they had chosen and said to the two elderly people, "You two, please stay in the third room over here. The old lady is not feeling well, so please take a rest."
"Okay, thank you for troubling Comrade Zhong. We'll go first. You can rest."
This person was quite someone! Once inside the camp, everyone treated her with respect and courtesy; everything was arranged for her without her even having to ask.
