Jiang Baige came here today to put out fires. She worked non-stop all afternoon, and her clothes, face, and even her hair were all very black.
Besides, it was night time, so I couldn't see the face clearly.
She didn't look in the mirror and didn't know what she looked like now.
She looked at the person in front of her. Although he was a little darker, she suddenly laughed after she confirmed that it was Chen Jianguo.
"Haha, Brother Jianguo, why are you like this?"
When she smiled, she showed two rows of white teeth, which looked very funny.
In Chen Jianguo's eyes, it wasn't funny at all.
He looked at the person in front of him clearly. Isn't this his wife? When did she come here?
He pulled her around and looked at her from front to back, and only felt relieved when he saw that she was not injured, and then he asked.
"Bai Ge, when did you come here? It's very dangerous here, don't you know?"
When Jiang Baige saw that he recognized her, she threw herself into his arms.
Then he said, "I know! But aren't you coming here anyway? If you're not afraid of danger, then I'm not afraid either."
Chen Jianguo was very angry. He pushed her away and pulled her aside, looking at her carefully.
This little woman did something wrong and thought a hug would solve the problem.
Seeing that he didn't say anything and even pushed her away, Jiang Baige said softly, "I'm worried about you! I also want to help put out the fire. Can you please stop being angry?"
Chen Jianguo pulled her aside, and the two of them found a deserted place, a fallen tree, and asked her to sit down.
He let out a long sigh, then said: "I'm not angry, it's just that you suddenly appeared here, and I was very worried, you know?"
Jiang Baige smiled and said, "I know you are worried about me, but I am an adult and can protect myself."
Chen Jianguo saw that his wife was indeed fine, and then asked: "Why did you come? Who did you come with? I didn't see you this afternoon. Have you been here the whole time?"
Jiang Baige replied, "I received a notice at noon today asking the school to send someone to support us, so I came."
Chen Jianguo took a deep breath and wiped the black dust off her face.
Then he said, "Now that you're here, be careful. Don't get too close to the fire. I'll be angry if you get hurt."
Jiang Baige held his face and wiped the dust off his face.
Asked: "Are you injured? Let me see."
Chen Jianguo saw the enlarged face in front of him and burst out laughing. "I'm fine. Go get some sleep. We'll continue in the morning."
As he spoke, he took out a kettle and handed it to Jiang Baige.
"Come, drink some water before you sleep."
Jiang Baige opened her mouth and took a sip. It seemed like there wasn't much left, so she picked up her kettle and shook it.
Then he said, "I have some here, too much, I'll give you some."
She took a sip of the water in Chen Jianguo's kettle. Maybe because she hadn't drunk it for a long time, the taste had changed.
The water in her kettle is mineral water from the space, and it won’t have any taste even if it is left for a few days.
Chen Jianguo smiled and said, "Give me some, I'm thirsty too."
Two people sitting together, even though they haven't seen each other for a day, seem to have endless things to talk about.
Jiang Baige looked at the raging fire behind him and asked, "Brother Jianguo, is there no way to control this fire?"
Chen Jianguo said: "How can we control it? There is no water here, and there are endless mountains. Now I really hope it will rain heavily. If it rains, the fire can be controlled."
Jiang Baige looked up at the starry sky. It was impossible for it to rain, and it might not rain in the next few days.
Suddenly she yawned, then leaned against Chen Jianguo and closed her eyes.
Chen Jianguo said: "Go to sleep! Get up early tomorrow."
Jiang Baige closed her eyes and fell asleep leaning against Chen Jianguo.
Chen Jianguo leaned his back against the big tree and closed his eyes to rest.
The next morning, Jiang Baige was woken up by the noise. Someone had already set out to put out the fire.
Chen Jianguo and Lu Hongjun were talking. Chen Jianguo said bluntly, "Lu Hongjun, we are old classmates, right? You actually ignored the danger of my wife and brought her here. I really want to beat you up to vent my anger."
When they met early in the morning, Chen Jianguo really wanted to beat this guy up.
Lu Hongjun was obviously very afraid of Chen Jianguo and kept a distance from him when talking to him.
Lu Hongjun begged for mercy: "Old classmate, I was wrong, it was your wife who wanted to come with you."
Jiang Baige walked over and said, "Brother Jianguo, this has nothing to do with Comrade Lu. I insisted on coming here."
Lu Hongjun gave Jiang Baige a smile. His sister-in-law was really nice. She even explained for him.
Chen Jianguo said unhappily, "Don't talk for now. I'll deal with you when I get back."
The man showed his power, Jiang Baige pretended to be scared and followed the team with a broom.
Chen Jianguo and Lu Hongjun lagged behind and talked for a while before catching up with the team.
During meals, Jiang Baige would pull Chen Jianguo aside and secretly give him food.
Although Chen Jianguo wanted to ask her where she came from, he didn't ask because he saw the bag she was carrying.
It was their fourth day on the mountain. Hundreds of people had gathered there in the past few days, and all the adults and children who could walk from the nearby villages had come. The wildfire was clearly under control.
Suddenly there was a loud thunder in the sky and it finally started to rain. Hundreds of people shouted, welcoming the oncoming downpour.
But they never gave up on putting out the fire. When it rained heavily, they took advantage of the rain and put out the fire completely in one go.
There was a cheer in the forest, celebrating their successful fire extinguishing.
The team evacuated in the afternoon, and Jiang Baige and the others went home.
Chen Jianguo and his fellow armed forces personnel returned to the armed forces department, and Jiang Baige went straight home. She was too dirty and needed to boil water to wash herself thoroughly.
After taking a shower and waiting for her hair to dry, Jiang Baige took a nap.
