It was already getting light outside the window, probably around three or four o'clock. Yu Sui rubbed her head, but couldn't shake off Yu Qiu's vampire-like look from her mind.
unlucky!
That woman should be sleeping in a mental hospital right now, how could she have appeared in her mind?
Yu Sui sighed and wanted to get some water before going back to sleep, but there was a knock on the door and a very faint voice calling out, "Wife? Sui? Are you awake?"
It turned out to be Xia Linsheng.
Yu Sui went to open the door: "You...just came back?"
Xia Linsheng's hair was damp, his eyes were sunken and dark, and his voice was full of fatigue: "I've been back for a while. I didn't want to disturb you. I thought it would be dawn soon, so I left you alone. Please sit outside for a while."
"Are you stupid? There is dew on your hair. Come in quickly and wipe it off first. I'll boil an egg for you." Yu Sui quickly pulled him in and wiped him with a towel.
In the early morning of July in the north, the temperature is only around ten degrees Celsius, so don't catch a cold.
Xia Linsheng looked at Yu Sui with a smile, his eyes full of attachment: "My wife is so kind."
Yu Sui glared at him coquettishly: "Stop talking nonsense, are you done with the matter?"
"No. Fearing there might be other spies hiding out there, the team asked me to lead a team to continue the investigation. We've been going back and forth to that area for the past few days, and we've also been checking some of the abandoned houses around there. But knowing you were leaving early this morning, I still wanted to come back to see you off."
"Are you checking the entire area? That's too intense. You didn't even get a break, did you?"
"Still... 僢." Xia Linsheng tried to smile.
Yu Sui felt distressed: "You are lying with your eyes open. Look at your face, you are really stupid! Doesn't the captain know that you are in poor health?"
"Well, it's my duty."
"Come on, your duty is to guard the border, when did it include catching spies?"
"But these people have been probing our border defenses. Okay, Sui, although I'm a little tired, I'm very happy that we were able to catch them all in one fell swoop. Will you stop blaming me?"
The two talked for a few seconds, and Xia Linsheng handed the towel to Yu Sui with a pleading look in his eyes. Yu Sui didn't want to say anything to him anymore. She opened the stove, turned on the fire again, boiled two eggs for Xia Linsheng, and let him go to bed.
As soon as the guy touched the pillow, he muttered "You must love me when you die" and fell asleep.
Yu Sui looked at his exhausted appearance and no longer felt sleepy.
She washed Xia Linsheng's clothes, packed up all the things in the house, and bought some nourishing medicine from the space. After removing all the packaging that would attract attention, she put them together with the medicine Xia Linsheng would take.
After doing all this, Yu Sui wrote a letter to Xia Linsheng.
Her train is at around seven o'clock, so she should be gone by then at the latest.
But it was already five in the morning and Xia Linsheng had just fallen asleep. How could she bear to wake him up at that hour just to see her off?
She's not that pretentious.
Compared to a farewell ceremony, she hoped that he could have some rest.
So she wrote:
"Comrade Xia Linsheng, I've been sitting next to you and watching you sleep for half an hour!
Seeing you sleeping so soundly, I'm very happy, happier than if you could see me off at the train station. So, I decided not to wake you up and let you sleep soundly.
I kissed you, so don't be unhappy because I didn't wake you up.
Nothing is more important than your health, so please take good care of it. Don't make yourself look ugly with dark circles under your eyes, or I won't like you.
I'm already very satisfied to have spent half a year here. Other family members don't have the same treatment and ability as me, right?
We should all be content.
Even if you managed to survive your last injury, you should be content. You cannot spend all day and night thinking about making achievements, making contributions, and fighting for your country. People only have one life, and we only have one life, which is still long. We can spend the rest of our lives together building this country with our hands and wisdom. We don't have to sacrifice our lives.
I've been here with you for so long, and I'm not sad at all when I leave. When I go back to my hometown, I can brag about it. I've also taken a train to the border!
But I think you will be sad. After all, I am so young, right?
Where can I find a wife as beautiful as me?
Beautiful, capable, smart and... I didn't write it all down. You can continue to list them, but I guess it will take more than one page to finish.
So, I didn't take the photos from Han Duomi's camera. I'll leave them with you. Whenever you miss me, take a look at the photos.
Don't worry at home, I will take care of it.
Goodbye.
After you wake up, remember to leave the pot for you to eat. There is a bottle where the medicine is kept. It contains ginseng powder that I spent a lot of effort to grind. Remember to put some in the kettle and drink it every day.
There's nothing much to say about others. If you have time, you can write letters. Thanks to this peaceful era, a letter can be sent in less than ten days. It's not enough to express my longing for you, right?
If the love between two people is long-lasting, it doesn't matter if they are together day and night.
You are half married to a wife, Yu Sui."
Yu Sui placed the letter on the dining table and deliberately pressed it with a key so that Xia Lin would definitely see it when he woke up.
Then he carried several large bags of food and went out.
Because she was worried that Han Duomi, the straightforward guy, would come and bang on the door loudly and wake up Xia Linsheng, Yu Sui hugged Li and stood guard at the door.
Soon, Han Duomi drove his car to the aisle outside the dormitory, rolled down the window and called out to Yu Sui: "Sister-in-law, I'm here to pick you up. Have you packed? Do you want me to help you move your things? Where's Xia Linsheng?"
Yu Sui repeatedly gave him the finger and ran over to stop him: "Shh, shh, can you please keep your voice down? Don't you see what time it is now?"
Han Duomi: "When? The soldiers are out for drill!"
Yu Sui rolled her eyes: "Xia Linsheng didn't come back until four in the morning."
"Oh! I thought you were taking care of the comrades nearby, but it turns out you just felt sorry for Old Xia. Tsk tsk tsk, is this what it's like to have a wife? I'm so envious! What should we do now? Are we going to wait for him to wake up?" Han Duomi looked sour.
Yu Sui opened the car door herself and took a bag in her hand and put it in the car first: "No, move the luggage in and go."
"Uh... a fight?"
"No, please help me, there are still two bags."
"You...really won't wait for Old Xia? Old Xia said the day before yesterday that he would definitely send you off."
"No, is it a jeep? Or can it carry me to the train station? It's just a one-way trip. I can just wave goodbye at the train station. What's the big deal? Why are you talking so much nonsense? Don't you want to eat jerky?"
Yu Sui took out a small bag from her pocket and shook it towards Han Duomi. Han Duomi's eyes immediately changed: "Sister-in-law is really a person who keeps her word. Come on, come on, I'll help you carry it to the car and we'll go. It doesn't matter whether Captain Xia sends you off or not!"
