Another week passed, and there was still no news from him.
Xing Cui's call didn't go through, and she couldn't wait any longer, so she discussed with Tang Huan, "Xiao Huan, let's go to the army to see your brother?"
The army unit was not far away and there were long-distance buses. Xing Cui thought that since she couldn't contact Meng Zeyan, people in the army must know where he went.
She bought some things and said she was delivering them to Captain Meng.
Xing Cui also knew that she was being pretentious. In the past, she didn't mind when she only received a letter in half a year, but now she was extremely anxious when she didn't answer the phone for several days.
Alas, the closer the child gets to her, the less calm she becomes!
Tang Huan saw that her mother-in-law hadn't been eating or sleeping well these past few days. She should have advised her to wait a little longer, but she couldn't bring herself to do so. She made up her mind and agreed, "Okay."
Seeing her brows finally relaxed, Tang Huan felt a little heavy in his heart. He wondered if it would be inappropriate for them to suddenly go to the army?
Will it put Meng Zeyan in a difficult position?
Xing Cui was about to prepare something for Meng Zeyan, and Tang Huan went to the main room to try to make a phone call. She thought that if the call went through, then they wouldn't have to go.
The ringing of the phone sounded like a stopwatch counting down. As time passed, there was only a beeping sound on the phone but no one answered.
Hanging up the receiver, Tang Huan took a deep breath and quietly clenched his fists. They were just going to see if he was safe and would not cause any trouble to anyone.
Meng Qinghe came home from work and learned that the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law had made a decision, but he was indeed a little worried. More importantly, his wife was always worried, and she would feel uneasy if he didn't let her go to see them.
According to Meng Zeyan's military rank, his family members can accompany the army. After they go, even if Meng Zeyan is not there, there will be other people who will take them to his residence after verification.
Xing Cui went to the store to buy a lot of things, and also made a large portion of braised meat at home to take with her. Now that the weather is cool, it won't go bad if she takes it with her.
The next morning, Xing Cui and Tang Huan took the bus with their things to the bus stop, and then changed to a long-distance bus.
The long-distance bus takes about three hours to get there.
Xing Cui didn't sleep well last night. Not long after getting on the bus, she fell asleep on Tang Huan's shoulder because of the shaking of the bus.
Tang Huan leaned against the car, her mind in turmoil. For a moment, she remembered that they had agreed to go to the movies that afternoon, but she had forgotten to call them to inform them that she couldn't go.
It's really inconvenient to not have a mobile phone.
As the bus journey took longer and longer, the passengers who did not get off were almost all going to visit their relatives in the army.
Listening to the other passengers chatting, Tang Huan could tell each other's identities from their conversation.
Some are parents visiting their children, some are brothers and sisters visiting their brothers and sisters, and some are wives and children visiting their husbands...
The only thing is that none of the brothers and sisters who have no relationship with them go to visit their eldest uncle.
Someone asked Tang Huan who she was going to see, and she smiled and said it was her brother.
When they were almost there, Xing Cui woke up and started chatting with the passengers.
In her eyes, Tang Huan is her own daughter, Meng Zeyan's sister, and there is nothing wrong with her.
The bus arrived at the station and the people on board got off one by one.
Some family members who had visited before knew the way, and the rest of the people followed them.
Tang Huan and Xing Cui followed with their things in their hands.
The bus stop is some distance away from the military base, and it takes twenty minutes to walk there.
Walking for twenty minutes carrying something heavy is really a test of Tang Huan's physical fitness.
The family member took them to the guard post at the entrance of the unit. They had to register there, and then the guard contacted their superiors. After going through various approvals, the person they were visiting would come out to meet their family. This chapter has been read (please click on the next chapter to continue reading!)
