With a Door In Mind

When he got home, he hurriedly hid in the bed.

It was too cold outside.

On the day of Chinese New Year, Zhou Xiaochuan went to Grandpa Zhao's house, feeling that nothing was going on, so he left some wine and meat and went back to his home for the Chinese New Year.

At night, Yang Yuemei wiped away tears while holding the letter sent by Zhou Xiaohe.

There is also the salary he sent over, 280 yuan.

After Zhou Xiaohe was promoted, he was paid more than 40 yuan a month.

There is no money to spend there, so most of the money is saved by him every month. .

Half a year's salary was sent to Yang Yuemei at the end of the year.

Zhou Xiaochuan sighed, "Mother, Xiaohe is fine there, so don't cry. It's unlucky."

Hearing Zhou Xiaochuan's words, Yang Yuemei wiped her eyes and said firmly, "Yes, you can't cry. It's Chinese New Year, and I should be happy that Xiaohe is safe. Let's eat."

With Yang Yuemei's recovery, Zhou Xiaomi dared to add food.

The dishes on the table did not change because of this special environment.

There are few people, but there are many dishes. Ten dishes, Chinese New Year still needs a sense of ritual.

Naturally, the dishes that several people like to eat are all cooked.

Yang Yuemei likes to eat meat, Xiaomi likes to eat fish and shrimp.

The shark that was brought in by the sea before became a meal on the plate.

It's just that it doesn't taste that good when you eat it. Such a mighty name wasted.

Time flies, two years have passed.

Spring of '69.

In the past two years, Zhou Xiaochuan has seen too many things.

With the departure of the group of students last year, a big stone that weighed on people's hearts was finally removed.

It's not over yet, but at least people are breathing a sigh of relief.

After all, children are very "naughty".

What surprised him was that he didn't have any "performance" in the past two years.

But Zhang Ping doesn't seem to care much about this, and only occasionally criticizes verbally.

Zhou Xiaochuan was also happy.

This year is also a special year, because Qin Xiao is about to graduate.

Many college students who graduated last year went to remote areas. I don't know what happened to Qin Xiao.

At that time, it will be troublesome if they are allocated to remote areas.

Because Qin Xiao's job assignment is different from the educated youth jumping in the queue. You won't be able to come back casually because of the college entrance examination.

And because of old man Qin's matter, Qin Xiao must go to a difficult place in the north.

Because only there can "exercise" people more.

And this year Xiaomi also graduated from elementary school.

Director Zhang from the sub-district office had already come to notify that if there are multiple children in the family, only one can stay in the city.

Originally, this had nothing to do with my family.

Because I have a job, Xiaomi didn't have to go.

But now comes the problem.

The farms near the provincial capital are short of people, so some of the primary school students in the city need to go there to graduate.

And Zhou Xiaomi was in this quota.

It was an honor to know that at the time.

Because going to the farm is paid for, not just anyone can go.

There is still a lot that is not up to standard in the school.

That is, unless she has a job now, so as to avoid going to the farm.

Let's put Xiaomi's matter aside for now, he can make the decision for the other party.

Now it's Qin Xiao's business.

At night, Zhou Xiaochuan asked Qin Xiao, "What did the old man say?"

After these two years, Zhou Xiaochuan also knew that Qin Xiao's father was really a big shot.

Deputy head of a department.

Bit height weight.

Hearing Zhou Xiaochuan's words, she shook her head, "I won't go."

Zhou Xiaochuan sighed when he heard the words. In the past two years, during the holidays and Chinese New Year, Qin Xiao will go to Kyoto.

But so far Qin Xiao is unwilling to forgive the other party.

She also always thought that she was a superfluous person, if it wasn't for old man Qin, she wouldn't have appeared in the capital.

"Then you may go back to a more difficult place."

Qin Xiao bit her lips lightly when she heard the words, "It's okay."

But Zhou Xiaochuan thought about it, even now she has met in the past.

This turns into a family with many children.

Qin Xiao still had to leave.

It's just that with his father around, he shouldn't have to go too far.

This is Qin Xiao's own decision, and it's not easy for him to make decisions for her.

Then he looked at Xiaomi next to him, he had already thought of a way, but he would only do it when it was a last resort.

At this time, Xiaomi didn't know what it meant to go to the farm.

It's just to grow vegetables and weed.

He didn't bother to explain too much to the little guy, it wasn't necessary. Why bother.

Went to work normally the next day.

Before long, his name was called on the radio.

Zhou Xiaochuan came to the guard's side suspiciously, only to see Zhou Xiaomi was there anxiously.

Seeing Zhou Xiaochuan coming out, the little guy ran over in a hurry.

Over the past year, her big braids have grown out.

She is already a big girl now, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, and an oval face.

She will definitely be a big beauty when she grows up.

Just don't know which bastard will be cheaper in the future.

When he came to the front, before Zhou Xiaochuan could speak, Xiaomi hurriedly said, "Brother, you should go back quickly. The second brother sent a letter."

Hearing her words, Zhou Xiaochuan felt strange for a while, "Just write a letter, what are you in a hurry for?"

"Oh, brother, can you not be in a hurry? The second brother is missing."

Hearing Xiaomi's words, he was startled immediately, and then asked suspiciously: "He is missing, can you still write? Do you really think your brother is a fool?"

"Ah!" Zhou Xiaomi screamed when he heard this.

Why is it so tiring talking to this silly brother!

"Brother...it's the letter from over there, not written by the second brother himself, mother fainted."

Hearing this, Zhou Xiaochuan stopped smiling.

It appears to be true.

Then he hurriedly said, "Wait a while, I'll be right back."

After speaking, he hurried to the workshop.

After asking for a leave of absence, he hurried home with Xiaomi.

When I got home, I saw Yang Yuemei crying there.

"Mother, mother, don't cry! Brother is back." Zhou Xiaomi looked at Yang Yuemei crying there, and hurriedly comforted her.

But while comforting him, he also began to cry.

When Yang Yuemei saw Zhou Xiaochuan came back, she immediately handed him the letter, and murmured, "Xiaochuan, take a look to see if I misread it. Your brother is okay."

Zhou Xiaochuan took the letter from Yang Yuemei's hand, and his face became more and more serious.

This letter was sent by Zhou Xiaohe's comrade-in-arms.

The content is that when Zhou Xiaohe's platoon was performing a mission, it encountered danger.

A dozen people were injured.

In the end, Zhou Xiaohe, the deputy platoon leader, and the platoon leader broke up, but neither of them came back.

According to what was said before the mission, whoever had an accident.

Those who are left alive are responsible for telling their families.

Before, because several people were in the hospital for treatment, their mobility was limited, and they were under control, so they couldn't write a letter.

Ten days passed.

Then I found an opportunity to write a letter.

Zhou Xiaochuan estimated the time, and it would take at least five days to send a letter from there, and if there is a slight delay, it will be normal for ten days and a half a month.

In other words, Xiaohe has been missing for half a month or even more than 20 days.

Seeing this, the letter fell from his fingertips to the ground.

He closed his eyes in pain.

I feel a pinprick in my heart.

heartache.

Although he came here halfway, after all these years, Zhou Xiaohe was almost raised by himself.

Get along day and night together for so many years.

Even raising a dog has feelings, let alone a living person.

If something really happened to Zhou Xiaohe, how could he accept it.

Seeing Zhou Xiaochuan's expression, Yang Yuemei cried even louder, "My poor son! Why are you so miserable!"

Seeing this, Zhou Xiaochuan didn't know how to comfort him.

Then he thought of something, quickly picked up the letter paper, and handed it to Yang Yuemei, "Mother, don't worry, Xiao He just disappeared."

Yes, within ten days, if he really sacrificed, the letter should be written.

There are only two possibilities, one is being trapped somewhere and not coming back.

Another way is to be captured.

Thinking of this, hope rose in his heart.

Yang Yuemei didn't stop crying when she heard the words, what's the difference between being lost there and being sacrificed?

Zhou Xiaochuan said firmly: "Mother, Xiaohe is definitely fine. Mother, just wait a moment."

After speaking, he rode his bicycle to the textile factory.
