Siheyuan: Starting from 1952

"I want to do it as soon as possible." Li Yanxi replied, "But I have to report to my unit, and then I have to go to my father's comrades to smooth things over. Otherwise, I can't go to the battlefield. This will take at most half a month, and at least three to five days!"

"Not bad! Then I'll think of a way to get to the battlefield at the same time as you!"

Lu Juemin nodded.

This time should be enough for me to handle things on my own!

"it is good……"

Li Yanxi buried her head deeply in Lu Juemin's arms.

that moment.

She felt that she was the happiest woman in the world.

……

After Lu Juemin returned from Li Yanxi's place, he told Chen Xingyao about his idea of ​​accompanying Li Yanxi to the battlefield.

After hearing this, Chen Xingyao yelled, "Brother, what are you doing? Didn't you say you would always be with me? Why are you leaving me now? No! I don't agree! I won't let you go!"

"Yanxi..." Lu Juemin said softly, "I know my idea is very selfish, but I can't bear to see Yanxi go to the battlefield alone."

"What about me? Can you bear to leave me alone in the city?" Chen Xingyao asked.

“I can’t bear it…”

Lu Juemin sighed, "But... I have already promised Yanxi..."

“But you didn’t ask me!!!”

Chen Xingyao yelled and ran out of the house.

"Xingyao..."

Looking at Chen Xingyao's back, Lu Juemin couldn't help but feel a headache.

This is really a difficult matter.

“It’s hard to have the best of both worlds” is referring to my current situation, right?

He shook his head bitterly and then ran out.

Curfew is about to begin, and it’s not a good idea for Chen Xingyao to run out like this.

But I don’t know where this little girl Chen Xingyao went.

Lu Juemin searched around the courtyard for several times.

Still didn't find it.

"Where can this little girl go?" Lu Juemin was so anxious that he scratched his head...

……

After Chen Xingyao ran out of the courtyard, she suddenly became confused.

She didn't know where she could go.

In such a huge courtyard, it seems like there is no place for me to stay.

She felt sad and didn't want to go back.

So she walked aimlessly in the city.

As we were walking, it was time for curfew.

Chen Xingyao didn't dare to stay any longer.

Just as she was about to go back, she found herself walking towards Zhengyang Gate.

And in front of her was a silk shop.

"Is this... Boss Chen's store?"

Chen Xingyao's eyes lit up immediately, "Yes, I can ask Boss Chen to take me in!!"

then.

She knocked on the door of the silk shop.

After a while, Chen Xueru opened the shop door yawning.

"Chen Xingyao?"

Chen Xueru looked at the little girl standing at the door of her store and was very surprised. "It's so late, what are you doing here?"

"Boss Chen..." Chen Xingyao looked at Chen Xueru pitifully, "My brother doesn't want me anymore. Can you...can you let me stay for one night?"

"Your brother doesn't want you anymore?"

Chen Xueru was even more surprised. She looked at the dark sky outside, then grabbed Chen Xingyao's arm and said, "Let's go inside first."

Invite Chen Xingyao into the house.

Chen Xueru poured her a cup of hot water.

The temperature in Sijiu City was already very low, so Chen Xingyao was shivering from the cold.

It’s best to drink a cup of hot water at this time.

"Xingyao, tell me, what's going on? Your brother is fine, why would he not want you?"

After Chen Xingyao finished drinking the hot water, Chen Xueru asked with confusion.

"Just...just..." Chen Xingyao just opened her mouth and tears started falling. She couldn't speak clearly.

Seeing this, Chen Xueru quickly said, "Xingyao, speak slowly, it's okay."

"There are relationships!"

Chen Xingyao almost screamed, “Wuwuwu… My brother is going to the battlefield. My brother is going to accompany Li Yanxi to the battlefield… Wuwuwu… My brother is going to leave me behind to accompany Li Yanxi to the battlefield…”

"what???"

After hearing Chen Xingyao's roar, Chen Xueru was stunned where she was.

Go...to the battlefield?

This this……

All of a sudden.

She also found it difficult to calm down.

Originally, she was looking forward to waiting for Lu Juemin to buy his own house and become his neighbor.

Although I can't marry him, I can see him every day, which makes me feel comfortable.

but now……

He is actually going to the battlefield?

This...what is this?

But Chen Xueru is an adult after all, and an adult with her own ideas.

So she calmed down quickly.

She asked, "Xingyao, is Li Yanxi a soldier?"

"No!" Chen Xingyao shook her head. "Li Yanxi's father is a soldier. Li Yanxi received a letter from her father on the battlefield and was very worried about him, so she wanted to go to the battlefield. My brother was worried about her, so he decided to go with Li Yanxi."

"That's it..."

After hearing Lu Juemin's reason for going to the battlefield, Chen Xueru felt a pang in her heart.

Li Yanxi is so lucky!

She actually let Lu Juemin follow her to the battlefield...

Ugh……

After sighing silently, she comforted him, "Xingyao, your brother's reason is quite legitimate, not as serious as you said."

"He went to the battlefield, it's not like he won't come back."

"I'm scared!" Chen Xingyao whimpered, "The battlefield is so dangerous, people die every day. If my brother goes there and something happens to him, what should I do?"

“Puh, puh, puh!” Chen Xueru quickly covered Chen Xingyao’s mouth. “Xingyao, you can’t say that! Your brother will definitely come back safely, you know?”

"I……"

Chen Xingyao also realized that she had said the wrong thing, and immediately changed her words: "Yes, my brother will come back safely!"

But after saying this, she felt something was not right, so she changed her words again: "Oh, no, I don't even want my brother to go, there is no question of him coming back!"

"You girl..." Chen Xueru looked at Chen Xingyao like this and smiled helplessly, "So...Xingyao, the reason why you feel so uncomfortable is because you feel that your brother has abandoned you?"

"Correct!"

Chen Xingyao nodded: "My brother promised me that he would be with me forever, but now he is like this!!"

"Xingyao, no one can be with each other for a lifetime, not even parents." Chen Xueru said: "Your brother loves you very much and treats you very well, but have you ever thought that your brother also needs to have his own life? He can't revolve around you all his life, right?"

"Besides...when you grow up, you're going to get married, right? When you find someone you like, you probably won't be afraid of your brother staying away from you!"

"Boss Chen, you are wrong!" Chen Xingyao pouted and said, "I will never love anyone else in my life. I will only love my brother!"
