"Sister-in-law, please introduce yourself."

Lin Hui said shyly: "My name is Lin Hui. I am a soldier led by your husband. When he was the regiment commander, he took good care of me. Without his support, I would not be where I am today."

"So, I came here specifically to see him today."

Zhou Zhongyi laughed loudly from the side: "You kid, don't put a high hat on me. You relied on your own ability, and I didn't put in much effort."

Chu Hongmei also smiled slightly: "Actually, my husband often mentions you, saying that you are the best soldier he has ever seen in all his years of service. He was able to come back from there because of you, so he left with peace of mind. You Just stop being modest.”

Lin Hui smiled awkwardly.

In the past, he would have been very happy to receive such appreciation.

But now, he couldn't be happy.

He betrayed the trust of his old regiment leader and failed to truly lead the unit, causing two soldiers to lose their lives.

Chu Hongmei glanced at Lin Hui, and then immediately looked at her husband: "What, you go inside and chat, don't stand outside. By the way, Lao Zhou, don't forget to ask for leave from your work unit."

Zhou Zhongyi smiled and nodded: "Okay, okay, I know, I just called you. By the way, don't cook for lunch, let's go out to eat."

"Xiao Lin comes here once in a while, I have to have a drink with him!"

Chu Hongmei complained: "Why don't people come to our house once? Eat this meal at home first, and then go out to eat later. This is etiquette."

Zhou Zhongyi laughed and touched his head: "That's right, then I'll listen to you."

He pulled Lin Hui and walked inside. Just then a customer came to the store.

"Boss lady, check out!"

"coming!"

Chu Hongmei looked back one more time, then pushed the wheelchair and passed.

At the very end of the supermarket, there is a small separate lounge.

There's just enough room for two chairs and a fold-out bed.

Zhou Zhongyi poured two cups of tea with a smile: "Drink our tea. It is not as good as tea from the south. There is dry land everywhere here. It is high mountain tea and the taste is very strong!"

Lin Hui took a sniff and said, "It's really good."

Zhou Zhongyi looked at him with a smile: "Why did you suddenly think of coming here to find me?"

Looking at his attire, he asked, "What's going to happen to you?"

Lin Hui glanced at him. He had nothing to hide from the old leader, and put down his cup: "We carried out a mission last time. I can't say more about the specific content. Ding Wen and Xiao Zhuangzhuang died!"

Zhou Zhongyi's body trembled and he was stunned.

The atmosphere in the small room instantly dropped to freezing point, like an ice cellar.

The two were silent for a long time, not talking for a long time.

Finally, Zhou Zhongyi sighed: "It's a pity that I brought them both out as soldiers."

Lin Hui's face was filled with guilt: "I'm sorry!"

Zhou Zhongyi patted him: "You don't have to say sorry to me. I know you must have tried your best, but we soldiers must have this kind of consciousness when we put on this military uniform."

"Remember that wildfire?"

"If you hadn't been at the front and suppressed everyone, some of us might have died like those firefighters."

"If you can survive this time, what about the next time, and the next time? Don't forget, whether it's a disaster or a war, we will always be on the front line."

"No one can guarantee whether they will sacrifice. As long as you put on this military uniform, you must be prepared to sacrifice. It's not just them, but you and me, too?"

Lin Hui's heart trembled.

At the old squad leader's place, he felt relieved a lot about himself.

I already want to go back to the army and start over.

But after listening to the words of the old group leader, another layer of shell seemed to be slowly opened in his heart.

Zhou Zhongyi patted him: "You're a kid who values ​​friendship, but you also have worries. I can see it. Do you take all the responsibility on yourself and feel that it's all your fault and that you failed to protect them? "

Lin Hui didn't hide anything and nodded silently.

Zhou Zhongyi smiled slightly: "That's not necessary!"

"There is no such thing as a banquet that lasts forever. No one knows who will come first tomorrow. If disaster comes, maybe you will be at the front, maybe me, or maybe any soldier."

"Even if they die, we must stand up again and face the sun of tomorrow."

"Who can guarantee that there will be no more disasters after tomorrow? When disaster strikes again, the people will still count on us to stand up and protect them!"

Lin Hui picked up the teacup, took a sip, and then stood up.

Zhou Zhongyi looked at him and asked blankly: "What's wrong?"

Lin Hui smiled at her: "I have been running around during this period. At the beginning, I was still hesitating whether to return to the army. Maybe doing other things would be more suitable for me."

"I feel like I've lost my courage and confidence, but now, I really want to go back to the army."

Zhou Zhongyi was stunned for a moment, then smiled: This kid has finally regained his confidence!

Lin Hui continued: "Originally, after I went to the last place, I wanted to go back directly, but by some strange coincidence, I ended up here. It seems that I came to the right place."

"Old commander, I will remember what you just said. As long as I still have the ability, I will never take off this military uniform."

"When I go back this time, I will train hard, work hard to improve the strength of the troops, and strive to prevent such things from happening again!"

Zhou Zhongyi also stood up with a smile and punched his chest with a fist: "You have this ability. I believe you will definitely lead the Tigers to be even better. Do your best!"

Lin Hui saluted: "Old leader, thank you!"

After saying that, he picked up his bag and walked out.

Zhou Zhongyi was stunned for a moment and hurriedly called out to him: "You are leaving so soon, why don't you have a meal?"

Lin Hui looked around. The supermarket was cleaned spotlessly.

Each shelf is neatly arranged, and the brooms next to it are arranged neatly.

It's much neater than the canteen in the military camp.

He then looked at Chu Hongmei, who was carefully checking the goods list behind the cashier not far away.

Then he turned to Zhou Zhongyi and smiled slightly: "No, old leader, you have your own life now, I won't disturb you anymore, take good care of my sister-in-law!"

After saluting him, Lin Hui turned around and left.

He said hello on the way: "Sister-in-law, I'm leaving."

Chu Hongmei raised her head in surprise: "Why did you leave so quickly? I was just going to buy groceries?"

Lin Hui smiled and said, "There is something going on in the army. I have to go back quickly. I'll treat you to dinner next time!"

Then he turned around and walked out, the sunlight outside the house shining on him.

His steps became much more brisk.

All the big rocks that were weighing on me were thrown far away.

At this moment, he was bathed in the sunshine, as if he was one with heaven and earth.

Looking to the southwest in the distance, Lin Hui had a smile on his face: "Tiger Group, I'm back!"

He faced the sunshine and strode forward!

Zhou Zhongyi stood at the door of the supermarket, looking at his retreating back, with a smile on his face, but his brows were slightly wrinkled: "You brat, you have to keep your word!"

Turning around, he found his wife watching from behind. He quickly raised his eyebrows and asked with a smile: "Honey, are you still cooking for lunch?"

Chu Hongmei smiled slightly: "I will do it, just for you!"
