"Hurry up and help me, finish it early because I have important things to do!" Milong turned his head and said this shamelessly to Banxianer and Ayi who had just come in, and also glanced at his wife who was busy in the kitchen. His smug look made all men in the world know what big thing he was going to do.
Shuoyu ignored Milong, but Ayi behind him had been ordered by Milong and started to roll up his sleeves to work as a farmhand in Boss Mi's house. He looked at the middle-aged woman sitting on the stool and said,
"Don't worry, he has somewhere to go. He'll be fine."
"Banxian'er, what are you hesitating about? Come and help me!"
"Here it comes, here it comes, like a ghost chasing after my life."
There was helplessness on his face. He, Ayi and Li Wula were making a water trough for Milong's house. They were hammering and banging, saying that the ground would be full of water when it rained, and it would easily grow moss and other things, making it slippery to walk on. Shuoyu glanced at Dashan who was following behind him and was unwilling to leave, and told her to go find Lei Baoer to play.
Then he joined in the noisy work with his hands. On the tightly closed little door of Fanla's father's house, there was a piece of white paper with four big words "No Noise" written on it.
Shuo Yu wanted to laugh. The four grown men did everything very quickly. He looked at Mi Long, who was concentrating as if he had used the same concentration and seriousness as when he was making a coffin at the South Heaven Gate. He was a little curious.
"No, Boss Mi, after this war is over, you won't go back to Northeast China?"
He didn't even raise his faucet. There were all kinds of tools at hand, but none of them were bought by him. The green paint of the military logo on them hadn't even fallen off!
"I'm not going back! What the hell is going back? I spent so much effort to build such a big house. My wife, kids, and whole family are here! Even my ancestral graves have been dug up in the Northeast. What's the point of going back? I'm not going back!"
As usual, Milong's answer was from his heart, not his brain. Shuoyu didn't expect him to give such an answer. It turned out that this place was already Zhang Milong's home, so he didn't go back.
He looked at Li Ula, who was silent and always working. He was also in the first echelon, and when the time comes, he will go to the South Heaven Gate with them again.
"Brother Lian Sheng, what about you? You're not going back either?"
"I, there are still people in my hometown who should go back. When we can beat the Japanese back, we'll go back and take a look. But when can we beat the Japanese back?"
A trace of confusion and nostalgia appeared on Li Wula's face. No child would not miss home. It is always good to have a place to return to after being away for too long.
Shuo Yu was just busy with his work while speaking the facts that should have been said.
“It’s almost there.”
"Yeah?"
Shuoyu did not continue the topic, but turned the conversation to Ayi who was working very hard.
"So, Ayi, after we finish this battle, where are you going? Back to Shanghai?"
Ayi's face was now black and gray. He looked the dirtiest among the four people. He was wiping the sweat off his face with a small towel in his pocket, which made his face gray and white.
In fact, among the four people, he and Li Wula did the most work. Milong was lazy and pretended to be a supervisor, and Shuoyu was slacking off and absent-minded.
"Well, yes, I'm going to lead my army to Shanghai to avenge my father."
Ayi was a little embarrassed and shy when he said this. Milong had completely become a hands-off boss and handed the matter over to the three of them. After answering Shuoyu's words, he couldn't wait to pull his wife upstairs to do something important. I heard that he had been thinking about this for several days, so he really couldn't wait.
Shuo Yu looked at the sink in Milong's mouth, which was almost done, and went to the kitchen to take over the unfinished work of Sister Shangguan and make some food for them. Milong would not come down for a while.
It has been a long time since I last visited Milong's house. There have been many changes in the yard. There are now water pipes made of bamboo, and a slide with ropes going back and forth. Shuo Yu thought to himself that his father was not as useless as he thought. He was still a little useful.
Lei Baoer and Dashan were playing a game of blowing and stepping on bubbles, or some chasing and hitting game, on the corridor. Shuo Yu took a look and ignored them, lighting the stove. His mother even came in to help him, which made him a little overwhelmed.
But it was only for a moment. He knew that the mother just wanted to hear more about her son, to hear more from other people about her son who disappeared in the blink of an eye every time they met before they could even sit down.
Shuo Yu broke the vegetables with his hands, peeled the sweet potatoes and potatoes with a spoon, and told her as many interesting things as possible, such as Fanla howling and biting like a girl. He tried his best to make his language vivid and humorous, searching for the few interesting things in the boring training to comfort the mother who was worried about her husband because he could not see her son for a long time.
The people who love us the most in this world should be our parents, because they should teach us the most important education about love in our lives, such as how to love others and how to love ourselves.
When silent crying sounds were heard from behind Shuo Yu, even Milong's loud duo opera upstairs could not ease the atmosphere. He just turned his back, pretending not to see anything, squatted beside the stove, and threw firewood into the stove one by one, watching the flames greedily lick and burn each one of them.
Maodou came running over at some point, followed by Lei Baoer and Dashan. Shuoyu had no choice but to take the two children outside and get a rope to make them happy (cat cat's tangle is quite fun).
