"Shut up!" Yin Xiaoman stood up from the bed angrily.
He pointed at Dabao's head and cursed, "Are you fatherless or motherless? Why is it your turn to take the lead now?
Your parents are still here!
Little kid, what are you thinking about every day? !
You better get rid of those thoughts right now! Otherwise, if your father comes back and finds out, he will beat you! ”
"But..." Dabao bit his lower lip, looking conflicted.
"But what buts! Don't worry, they can't take you away."
Yin Xiaoman said this without any intention of perfunctorily answering Dabao.
In fact, after she calmed down, she figured it out.
Why was the man so calm from beginning to end? It was because he knew that these people could not take the child away.
The people in the vanguard group actually still don’t quite understand the nature of Zhongshan Island. They may know that this is a confidential unit, but they probably don't know the level of confidentiality.
There are so many confidential units, and the Pioneer Group is also a confidential unit, but can it be the same as Zhongshan Island?
Not to mention Dabao and Erniu, who grew up on the island, even Xiao Zhang and Xiao Zhao——
They came to stroll around the island, and although Shen Qingyun would never take them near any important location on the island, they would definitely have to sign a confidentiality agreement when they returned.
Moreover, within the next two or three years, even if there is a good opportunity, it is probably impossible for the two of them to change their careers.
I think the same situation happened to Zhang Xiaozhi back then.
Although she didn't know where Lu Tuan would assign her to work after she returned, she had stayed on the island for more than half a year, so she had secured a position as a military engineer.
But even so, even though I knew in my heart that those two people couldn't take Dabao and Erniu away, the feeling was still disgusting.
It's like a fly buzzing around you. Even though you know it can't do anything to you, you can't help but feel annoyed.
Anyway, Yin Xiaoman was annoyed by the biological mother of the two children.
Another thing is that she still had a little worry in her heart.
No matter how powerfully she speaks, considering the ages of the two children, they are not yet adults.
As long as the biological mother is around, people who don't understand the situation will prefer the child to return to her.
The couple couldn't really argue with those people face to face.
If that woman really makes a scene, and says she is willing to wait until the children are past the declassification period, and then take them back...
Well, will the people in the group take Dabao and the others away, and will they really send them to a place to be declassified?
Although he knew that the possibility was very small, Yin Xiaoman became extremely anxious when he thought about it.
It’s not that she has become timid now, but - she heard exactly what Xiao Zhang said just now.
Xiao Zhang said that the woman is now very powerful and has even gone to the provincial government to file a complaint. Even Commander Cheng couldn't do anything to her.
Yin Xiaoman is now unclear about what kind of backer she has found.
How could a country girl who grew up in a seaside fishing village and could not read a single word suddenly become so brave as to run to the provincial capital to file a complaint for no apparent reason?
Yin Xiaoman felt that it was impossible for there to be no one behind her to give her advice.
And what kind of person, and what kind of background, could force Commander Cheng to be helpless?
I dare not think too deeply about these things. The more I think about them, the more frightening they become.
Yin Xiaoman couldn't help but worry. If the teacher couldn't handle it, could her man handle it?
Yin Xiaoman was a little absent-minded that afternoon, although she did not show it in front of the children.
Facing a group of little guys, she was of course the same as always.
But if you observe carefully, you will find that she has not smiled since the group of people left at noon, not even a perfunctory smile.
Perhaps because he was afraid that she would worry, Shen Qingyun came back much earlier than usual that night. He had already entered the hospital gate before the announcement of the end of get off work was made.
He and Qi Feng walked all the way to the door of their house before they separated. It was obvious that the two had already finished their conversation before that.
Xiao Zhang and Xiao Zhao did not follow.
As soon as Shen Qingyun entered the house, several children all stood up at the same time, and four pairs of eyes stared at him.
The little guys didn't say anything, but their eager eyes clearly showed that they wanted to get an accurate answer from him.
Shen Qingyun hadn't received such attention at home for a long time, and he was a little uncomfortable for a while.
He looked over the four little faces and then said with a smile: "Why are you all staring at me? Is there candy on my face?"
Erniu opened her mouth, and it was obvious that she wanted to ask a question, but she just opened it and then closed it again.
It can be seen that the little girl must have been "educated" by her brother in advance and not allowed to talk nonsense.
Seeing her like this, Shen Qingyun's heart softened. Just as he was about to explain, Shi Yan rushed over and hugged his legs: "Don't let your sister go! Don't let your brother go either!"
Shi Yan is two years old this year. Compared with his second brother, his personality is like the other.
That little one keeps chattering all the time, but this one is a taciturn person and doesn't like to talk at all.
Especially recently, Zhihua has been acting crazy, asking for swimming lessons every day. He keeps saying, "When my father taught me, he grabbed my legs and threw me into the sea..."
The little guy was so scared that when he saw Shen Qingyun, he was like a mouse seeing a cat, and just wanted to slip away.
No explanation is of any use.
And now, he actually rushed over and hugged his thigh, which was enough to prove that what happened this afternoon had scared the children in the family badly.
Shen Qingyun sighed silently in his heart, bent down, picked up his youngest son, and pinched his little face.
Then he turned to look at the others: "Don't leave. No one can take you away as long as I am here. Go do what you need to do. Has dinner been delivered to you tonight?"
With his promise, the children seemed to have put down a huge burden and suddenly felt lighter.
"My aunt Cui brought Brother Qiangzi here, and mother went with them to see them off. She said Grandpa Hua wanted to talk to her. Mother said that when you come back, you should have dinner and you don't have to wait for her. She brought the food with her, and she will eat with Grandpa Hua and the others."
Erniu said loudly.
Shen Qingyun nodded, put his younger son down, and signaled that they could prepare dinner.
He knew that when Mr. Hua went to find a wife, he would definitely ask about Dabao and the others. It seems that this matter must be resolved thoroughly as soon as possible and must not be allowed to become a source of worry for the family.
It was almost nine o'clock when Yin Xiaoman came back.
Mr. Hua had some free time today, and then he heard about what happened in the Shen family from his assistant.
Zhongshan Island is too closed, and any movement would be difficult to hide from people.
What's more, there are two outsiders coming to the island, which will attract more people's attention.
But what can Yin Xiaoman say to the old man?
After briefly discussing what happened at noon, the two of them sat in silence.
"Forget it, leave this matter to Qingyun. He will definitely be able to handle it. You don't have to worry too much." Old Hua sighed and comforted Yin Xiaoman.
"Yes, I know."
"Well, there's still some time. I'll give you some questions to do."
Just when Yin Xiaoman wanted to take the opportunity to say goodbye, Mr. Hua glanced at the watch on his wrist and said naturally.
Yin Xiaoman: “…”
She wanted to go back early and wait for the man to come back and ask for news.
But seeing that the old man had already taken out paper and pen and started writing quickly, she didn't dare to say goodbye.
Fortunately, after studying with the old man for a few years, Yin Xiaoman has become numb to his tests.
She didn't have a chance to try out what she had learned, so she didn't know how effective it was.
But I have already developed the ability to take exams.
Whether it was English, German, or French, even if Mr. Hua put all these questions on a test paper and gave them to her at once, she could still do it without batting an eyelid.
But thinking back, it wasn’t really like that. Because of saying those words that made people want to bite their tongues and remembering those convoluted words, she was often scolded and cried by Mr. Hua.
But looking at the old man's white hair and his increasingly bent back, she could only grit her teeth and persevere despite the difficulty.
Although Mr. Hua didn't say a word, Yin Xiaoman could feel that the old man was now paying more and more attention to her learning progress.
I remember that he said he wanted to help Zhihua with his enlightenment, but now he doesn’t say a word.
He was trying hard to cram as much knowledge into her brain as possible. It seems that he is afraid that one day he will be unable to do it and will be left with regrets.
Yin Xiaoman felt that the old man might have been physically exhausted and was relying on his perseverance to hold on.
For this reason, she also discussed it with the man and expressed her concerns.
But the group is actually very concerned about the health of the expert group members.
The doctor stationed on the island makes rounds every day and conducts routine consultations once a month. Every year, the regiment also organizes a special medical team to go to the island to perform physical examinations for them. We do everything we can.
The results of each physical examination showed that there were no major health problems with Mr. Hua and Mr. Ning, but at the same time, they were all aging rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Everyone knows that they are working hard on this.
Too much effort has been spent on the country's scientific research.
When we got home, the children had all gone to bed, and only the light was on in the bedroom.
Yin Xiaoman pushed the door open and saw a man packing his luggage.
She was slightly stunned.
Seeing her come in, Shen Qingyun said to her without even looking up: "I will go back to the group with the supply ship tomorrow."
"Are you going back to the group to get these?" Yin Xiaoman pointed to the box spread out in front of him and the cotton-padded jacket he was putting into it.
That cotton jacket was issued to him many years ago when he was in the Pioneer Camp.
Except for the time when he accompanied Mr. Hua to Beijing to pick up the experts' families to the island, he had never touched it in all these years except taking it out to show it off occasionally.
Shen Qingyun did not speak immediately, but straightened up and walked to her side and closed the door, then said to her: "I want to talk to the head of the group tomorrow. If nothing unexpected happens, I plan to go to the capital."
"Going to Beijing? What are you going to Beijing for?" Although he lowered his voice, Yin Xiaoman's tone was still full of surprise.
Shen Qingyun motioned for her to sit aside, and then stopped packing the boxes and sat next to her.
"Have I ever told you before that Dabao's father was a soldier from the capital?"
"No." Yin Xiaoman shook his head.
She remembered that the man only told her that Dabao's father was a soldier from the city, but he did not say which city.
Shen Qingyun nodded.
"I may not have noticed it at the time. In fact, if Brother Qi hadn't reminded me today, I still wouldn't have noticed it. Brother Qi said that the woman was a person who would not do anything without gain. It's impossible for her to cause such a scene without any ulterior motive.
If she said that she really wanted to take the two children back home to raise, no one would believe it!
Brother Qi and I deliberately tried to test Xiao Zhang this afternoon. Actually, there was no need to test him. Xiao Zhang and the others were almost fed up with that woman. As soon as they heard our questions, they immediately told us everything.
They said that the woman married an old man, and the man must be at least sixty years old this year. Would such a person indulge her in her mischief and follow her around swearing that he would be good to the child?
This is unreasonable even to the point of being unreasonable. The more I think about it, the more strange it seems. ”
"So, you want to go to Dabao's father's hometown to find out the reason?" Yin Xiaoman asked.
Sure enough, it was not difficult at all to talk to his wife. Shen Qingyun looked at her with appreciation and nodded.
"If the cause can be found in the province or city, there is no need for me to go. Commander Cheng would have already investigated the matter and it would not have come to us.
Brother Qi and I analyzed the situation and decided that if we can’t even find Commander Cheng, then something must have happened in the capital.
So, I want to go there directly and ask and find out what is going on. ”
Yin Xiaoman naturally would not stop such a thing, and she also knew that there would be no danger in it.
After all, the man's identity is there. As long as the regiment allows him to go and he has a letter of introduction issued by the regiment, no matter which unit he goes to to find out the situation, even if it is in Beijing, no one will hide it from him and generally everyone will cooperate.
Therefore, she was not worried about the man's safety. On the contrary, she just hoped that nothing unexpected would happen tomorrow and that Lu Tuan would let her go earlier.
Early the next morning, Shen Qingyun, Xiao Zhang, Xiao Zhao and others boarded the supply boat and left the island.
According to what he and Qi Feng had agreed on, they did not tell the two men what they were going to do when they went off the island this time. He just said that he had to go to the group to do some work and sent them away.
As for the matter of the two children, Shen Qingyun did refuse on the grounds of declassification. It was obvious that Xiao Zhang and the others had never thought of this reason before. After hearing what he said, the two of them didn't even say a word of advice.
Instead, Shen Qingyun personally wrote a letter to Commander Cheng, explaining the situation here and asked the two of them to take it back.
From the moment Shen Qingyun left the island, Yin Xiaoman felt nervous. In the past, when her husband went to the group to do work, she would always calculate when he would come back. I can't wait to go to the dock whenever I want to see if there are any boats coming.
But this time, she didn't want to see the boat at all.
She was only worried that Lu Tuan would find it troublesome and afraid of taking responsibility and would not let the man make the trip.
If I don't go this time, it will be even more troublesome to sort out the issues concerning the two children.
She spent two whole days in anxiety, and it was not until the next day when it got dark and the man still hadn't come back that she finally felt relieved.
But what she never expected was that early in the morning of the third day, she heard the rumbling sound of a ship docking at the pier.
The heart that had just been at ease was suddenly lifted up again.
"Dabao, watch the fire. I'm going to the dock for a while." Hearing the voice, Yin Xiaoman threw the vegetable knife onto the chopping board, turned around and ran outside.
Seeing her like this, Dabao wanted to follow her, but she stopped him with one word and he couldn't leave.
He shouted outside: "Erniu, go with mom, run faster!"
Erniu, who was feeding chickens in the backyard, heard her brother's voice, dropped the vegetable bowl, and ran after him.
Yin Xiaoman knew that the two little ones had become frightened birds and could not stand the slightest movement. But she couldn't care less at this moment, and didn't even bother with her little girl, so she just walked away very quickly.
When the mother and daughter walked to the dock, the ship had just docked and the people on the ship had not had time to get off.
The two men stood on the shore, breathing heavily uncontrollably.
As soon as Da Mi got off the boat, he saw his aunt and Erniu standing on the shore, both of them looking eagerly waiting. He was stunned.
He quickly waved at the two of them, then ran over in three or two steps, smiling so hard that his mouth almost reached his ears.
"Aunt! Erniu! How did you know I was back?"
Yin Xiaoman: “…”
Erniu: “…”
They don't know.
Da Mi is now serving in the Second Battalion. Everyone in the battalion knows that he grew up on this island. There are even many veterans who have almost watched him grow up.
Everyone took good care of him.
Whenever there is a mission to the island or nearby waters, he will be brought along if possible, so that he can go home often from time to time.
Although he would not stay for long each time, only a few hours at most, he would basically come back once every one or two months, so people were not very surprised to see him.
As for the treatment of having someone come specially to pick him up - except for the first time he came back, there was no such thing again.
"You're back? That's great. The meal is almost ready. Let's go home and eat together later."
Yin Xiaoman dusted off Da Mi's clothes to get rid of the dust that had gotten on him from running so fast just now, and then turned his gaze back to the boat.
"Where is your uncle? Didn't your uncle come back with you?" she asked a little nervously.
"My uncle?" Da Mi was confused. "Did my uncle go to the group? I haven't heard about it. Why didn't he come to see me when he went to the group?"
When Yin Xiaoman heard that Shen Qingyun did not come back with them, she felt relieved again.
Since he didn't follow the boat that came to the island, it means that Lu Tuan agreed to let him go to the capital.
Thinking of this, she suddenly felt much better, and finally realized the existence of rice.
"Hey, don't just stand there. Let's go home first." Yin Xiaoman said, and reached out to help Da Mi take the bag at his feet.
I mentioned it, but it didn't move.
"What did you put in here? Why is it so heavy?" she asked.
Da Mi, who was talking to Er Niu, turned around and took a look, then immediately laughed: "You ask me, I want to find someone to ask! Who knows what my uncle put in there? He even put a small lock on it mysteriously. It's obvious that he's afraid that I'll see it!"
The uncle that Da Mi mentioned refers to Zhou Tiancheng, squad leader Zhou.
Although his cousin relationship with Yin Xiaoman was not made public, it was no secret at home.
After all, why wouldn’t it make sense to prevent a child from recognizing his or her parents? Besides, the little ones in my family are not ignorant, so it is impossible for them to mess around outside.
Although Da Mi has always called the couple uncle and aunt over the years, she grew up in the Shen family. In fact, in everyone's hearts, they are no different from the Shen family's children.
So, he also followed Dabao and Erniu in calling him uncle, and no one thought there was anything wrong with it.
Especially now that he has gone to the Second Battalion, he has the most opportunities to meet Zhou Tiancheng in the family, and they are the most familiar with each other.
Every time Da Mi has the opportunity to go home, he will go and tell Zhou Tiancheng in advance. And that man was an honest man. He brought back big and small bags every time, and he wanted to carry back all the stock he had accumulated in advance in the form of rice.
After coming back several times, Da Mi would yell and say that the things his uncle was holding could crush him to death.
But every time the food was brought to him, he never ate less.
